LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 1865. - .0..._.,___- The weather as yet seems inclined to favour the entente cordiale between the two great 'Western Na tions, and has added to the skilful arrangements and splendid hospitality of Portsmouth and the Admiralty those attractions which a bright sky and warm sunshine alone give. All has passed off hitherto in the most satisfactory manner, and our FTench guests must admit that it does not always rain even in England. The pleasant weather in the beginning of the week will, we may hope, be continued to the end, so that there may be neither literal nor figurative cloud to mar the kindly ex change of courtesies. Portsmouth is busier than ever, full of visitors from France, as well as pleasure seekers from all parts of England. There is a tangible excuse or pretext for any one taking a holi day to wend his way southwards for such a sight, as the meeting of the fleets is not to be seen every day. In the race of naval competition England and France have lavished immense sums, and have availed themselves of all the inventions of art and the discoveries of science to strengthen and improve their fleets. Having each accomplished so much, they meet and exhibit what each has done, com paring results and measuring achievements. In respect to the dockyard arrange ments, one side of the comparison is only in futuro, since we have nothing to put against the naval splendour of Brest and Cherbourg but plans and outlines. In.- these, however, our -visitors seem to have taken much interest, and when completed Portsmouth Dockyard will be worthy of our fleet. The Admiralty vim apparently determined to do their best t o amuse their guests ; and yesterday, after conductin g th em over A t lr. LAIRD'S famous Scorpion, they took them to the dockyard, where they could see the wonders achievede ek do- by NASILYTII'S h a mmer, and other mechanical contrivance s. ouicres, and i Th i ence they went to the iron and brass fu wards to Southampto n-water, when they a f ter_ visited Netley Hospital. Afterwards came the grand dm_ ner at the Naval College, with all its attendant ex _ eitements. The visit must be highly interesting t o loth parties, and will do much to promote a kindly feeling between the two nations. The great and thriving city of Manchester has just now three very unwonted visitors. It pos sesses, no doubt, many attractions and curiosities, but its present guests are curiosities of themselves, and their visit is highly significant. They come from an old and effete semi-civilisation to one of the busiest centres of our modern manufacturing life, and the force and constancy with which the tide of knowledge and enlightenment is spreading eastward has seldom received a more powerful illus tration than in the visit of these high caste Indians to the English manufacturing city. The cotton growers are inspecting the wonderful factories in which their raw material is converted into the almost indispensable material. The natives of Madras have been examining the spinning, weaving, bleaching, and calico-printingworks of Manchester; they have been taring at the last representation of " Arrah na Pogiie ;" therhave been visiting 'Change ; have watched the processes of the print ing -office, and the daily routine of life at the bank. There has been plenty of traffic between Man chester and India during the last two or three years, but the trip of RAMA REDDI and his companions is certainly something new under the sun in these days. For Indians of their caste to condescend to visit foreign shores is no ordinary occur rence, and the fact of their undertaking a voyage to this country, partly from commercial motives, and partly to acquaint themselves with the details of the civilisation of which they have heard so much, is an interesting and significant fact. We can fancy the wonder and curiosity with which these intelligent natives would look over establishments so different from anything that they had ever seen before, and their opinion of the strength, and skill, and wisdom of the conquering race must have been greatly enhanced by the very sight of the crowded thoroughfares of the busy commercial city. Such active life must impress men of intelligent minds and quick appreciation, fresh from the calm of the inert Hindoos, and the enterprising travellers will carry back tales to their countrymen that will sound to them as strange and as incredible as the adven tures of Baron MUNCHAUSEN or GULLIVER'S Tra vels. They will look with fresh interest on their cotton when they recall the wonderful processes through which they have seen it pass, the carding and the spinning, the weaving and the bleaching, and finally the printing of gay forms and colours. In these departments of manufacture they will be especially interested, not only because they are Manchester's principal business, but because they themselves are cotton-growers; a4d the cause of their visit was partly their doubt of the accuracy of the accounts received in Madras respect ing Liverpool prices. They come as a deputation from the native growers and merchants, who want to know for themselves what the merchants on this side are really paying for their cotton ; and the leader of the party, RAMA REDDI, is a man well calculated for such an expedition. He is one of those natives whose natural intelligence and deter mination of character enable him to appreciate the superiority of Western civilisation. His companions and associates endeavoured to dissuade him from the voyage, and assembled on the beach to beg him not to go. However he persevered, and, although his companions quarrelled with him on board for breaking caste by eating food cooked on board, he contrived to bring them to reason by throwing over board their own cooking apparatus. Caste was not to be preserved at the cost of starvation, so RAMA REDDI had the best of it. Visits like this will go far to civilise the people of India, since it will enable them to understand not only England but English men better than they have hitherto done. They will be animated to fresh exertion, and take fresh in terest in the canals and railways, and other great works which Western science has originated in their own country, when they learn from eye-witnesses of their own race what marvellous results can be achieved by human industry and skill. The natives of India are sufficiently intelligent to appreciate our civilisation, when they are once free from those trammels of prejudice and superstition which RAMA REDDI and his fellows seem likely to break. All the suggestions concerning the cure and the prevention of the cattle plague are worthy of atten tion ; and as it is an undisputed fact that great discoveries have often taken place from simple occurrences, it seems unwise to turn aside from any plans or proposals that are made. Her MAJESTY'S Consul-General at Warsaw has forwarded to the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a letter, which makes mention of a remedy for the cattle disease, which was successfully tried in Poland some years ago. Mr. MANSFIELD states he was conversing upon this topic with some large landed proprietors, and that they stated that when, in 1857, the disease was very prevalent in Poland, the best remedy was found to be "water strongly impregnated with iron." It is curious to hear that this treatment was first discovered from the circumstance that upon a farm where there was a chalybeate spring the cattle were but slightly affected by the disease, or recovered when they had drunk large quantities of the water, yet on the neighbouring farms they died in large numbers. It was subsequently found that on putting " old iron into the cattle-troughs" the cattle recovered, by this production of a highly chalybeate water. This suggestion is surely worthy of notice from all who are concerned in the treatinent of cattle, and no doubt its adoption will prove of great utility. Many people may be too prejudiced to avail themselves of it, but they had better reflect how many benefits have accrued to the human race in consequence of the carrying out of ideas which were suggested by trifling circum stances. Thus vaccination was discovered through the fact of no one who came into contact with cows catching the small-pox, or only having it lightly. If all apparently trifling circumstances are over looked and disregarded it is very certain that much valuable knowledge will be lost. There can be no reason why this remedy of iron should not be tried at all events, and thus a fair chance given to the scheme. It is the bounden duty of all those who have anything to do with the management of cattle to be on the alert, and while they discard dangerous proposals, and turn aside from the ad vice of those who suggest a system of " quackery" to lose no opportunity and throw away no chance of remedial measures that may be brought before them from time to time. So only can we expect or hope with any reason that a speedy period will be put to the sufferings of these poor creatures, and that the community at large will be freed from the dangers and annoyance they now sustain. This remedy appears feasible at all events, and it sounds to sense that it presents a good chance of success, for the iron must purify the blood and strengthen the system of the animals altogether, thus checking that tendency to decay and that fatal debility which are unfailing symptoms of the prevailing distressing epidemic. It is satisfactory to notice that a telegram has been received at the Foreign office, which states that the Minister of the Interior has given instructions that not a single head of cattle " shall leave a Russian port without exami nation, and a certificate of health." It would be w th e e la exampleindeed w,ilieh f , the th o e th G er ev fo er r n ei m gn en P t Powers ersst. Peters burgfollowed has set them. the further sp rea d of It th e m e u e s u t ta te g n i d eu g a rea m t a ly lad to y c ; h a e n ck d to make the thing complete, it now remains for those who traffic i n foreign cattle make more m th o e r i e r cy liberal preparations for their co transit. It is most reprehensible that such a state of things as the neglect that prevailed at these times should have continued so long, but for it to be persisted in now is a positive crime, for it is sowing disease and misery broadcast through th e length and breadth of the land. In Edinburgh the spread of the cattle plague has caused the greatest consternation, and as people have been very naturally anxious to consult as to the best steps to be taken in the emergency, a meeting was held on Monday last, consisting of justices of the peace ; the Duke of BUCCLEUCH presided. From the report that was read, it ap peared that the disease in question had not spread in the suburbs, but bad been conftnel to the near neighbourhood of Edinburgh. Sanitary precautions have been adopted, it is most important to state, however, and surely this example will not be lost upon those in this country who are menaced with the infliction of this deplorable calamity. Some discussion took place upon the desirability of killing the cattle who were affected, and the Duke of BUCCLEUCH very truly said that it was unreason able to destroy all the cattle who caught the disease. Professor DICK declared that it was pos sible to effect a remedy, and in those instances where remedies were employed at an early stage of the affair the beasts recovered fast from the evil effects of the malady. From this statement, again, we may glean an interesting and important piece of intelligence. Too much haste cannot be made to insure prompt and efficient treatment to all those animals who suffer from the disease, and the attempt to hush up the matter, and not to let the fact of the disease having broken out in any particular spot become known, must be highly injudicious and injurious. It was stated at this meeting that the disease was infectious, but that it spread in an epidemic form, taking hold of particular districts, like the Cholera. The temporary settlement of the Schleswig-Hol ' stein affair has caused a great deal of annoyance in various quarters, and the various comments that are passed upon it would be amusing to read if the whole subject were not so unsatisfactory in every respect. The Austrian journals do not think that their diplomatists have made a good bargain, and are quite ready to pick holes in the management of their puissant ally. One of these organs very care fully criticises the present posture of affairs, and truly states that injuries will accrue from the divi sion that has taken place in the Duchies. Of what avail, it asks, is it to declare that the State , union is to be maintained when a separation has actually taken place, and when different masters rule ? This is a very fair argument, and it seems only strange that such a reflection should not have pre viously occurred to the arbitrators ; but when sel fishness and greediness are the predominant quali ties, it is idle to expect that any very satisfactory conclusion can be arrived at. The connection is truly described as patchwork, which will last one day and be destroyed the next. We find, however, that the secondary States are still more vehement in their indignation, and outspoken in their language. This is not to be wondered at, for they have indeed been most shamefully duped, and all the grand professions that have been so plentifully made have been totally disre garded when the time for settlement arrived. Under the present circumstances it is little that these victims can do except to complain and to protest against the usurpation of national rights and the destruction of well-grounded hopes. One of the journals that comments upon these matters intimates that the union again patched up between Austria and Prussia may not be so lasting as some expect, and then goes on to point out the signifi cance of the secondary States being excluded from the " solution of the question." These States cer tainly gave themselves a vast amount of unneces sary trouble at the outset of the Schleswig-Holstein dispute, but wrong as they might have been in principle they deserved better treatment at the hands of the great Powers, since they strenuously laboured for the advancement of the same end which these professed to have at heart—the con solidation of the Germanic Empire, and exclusion of strange interests from national affairs. It is not surprising that, taking all things into considera tion, Austria should be the chief point of attack, for it was the firmness of that Power that was chiefly relied on for securing the integrity of the Duchies, and protecting the claims of the smaller States. This idea has proved illusory, and disap pointment has prompted the utterance of some home-truths more poignant than pleasant and more appropriate than complimentary. The prospect of making Schleswig-Holstein a vassal State is indig nantly alluded to, and spoken of in terms of the greatest reprobation. It is, however, to be questioned, if, notwithstanding the truth contained is these animadversions, such will not virtually be the condition of the unfortu nate Duchies, or at all events will remain so until some startling change occurs. Germany, at any rate, cannot be considered as a " house that is at unity with itself," and may therefore expect sooner or later to share the fate that attends on disorganised and discontented establishments. The other na tions of Europe can pass no comment upon the events that occur of a more disparaging nature than those that are so lavishly uttered and so freely passed by the different States of Germany itself. First one and then the other is eager to explain its own wrongs and proclaim its own rights, although it must be confessed that the true meaning of these terms is little understood and still less acted upon. The Cattle Disease and the Turkish Bath -•- TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Bondville, Tynau, County Armagh, Aug. 29, 1865. SIR,—In your impression of 24th August there is a quotation from the Newcastle Daily Journal, in reference to the Turkish Bath and the Cattle Disease. Will you allow me to refer you to the result of my experience, as communicated to Sir John Fife, under the title " Four Years' Experience of the Turkish Bath on an Irish Farm ?" of which I send you a copy in pamphlet form, extracted from " The Manual of the Turkish Bath." Since writing that I have adopted, from Mr. Urquhart, ho use of radiating heat with remarkable success—decreas- ing the original outlay, time in construction, and current expenses—shortening the time in taking, and gaining more marked and rapid results ; besides, providing a much more enjoyable and enlivening medium to remain in than is to be procured from other heat. Both on my own and other farms, where radiating heat has been introduced according to my instructions, tho most marked success in treating the diseases of inferior animals has followed. The symptoms that are recorded of the fearful visitation now raging in England are such as we frequently subject to the action of heat, and with uninterrupted success. It must be high heat-180 deg. to 210 deg. Moderate tempera tures won't do. The rapid action of heat on disease ren ders it peculiarly adapted to meet the exigencies of tho pre. sent occasion. Nor need the uninitiated hesitate to try. Skill and knowledge are, of course, necessary to obtain the most favourable results; but, till acquired, intelligent observa tion will enable one not only to conduct experiments with out harm, but with great benefit to the animals operated on. After some trouble I have succeeded in getting a heat ing apparatus, which will, I hope, fulfil all the conditions required by the introducer of this cheap luxury and powerful remedial agent. I shall feel happy to communicate the information that I have accumulated by years of experience, from the time that the first horse ever known to take the bath was put in by me, at Saint Anne's Hill, County Cork. His history alone should induce stock owners to learn some thing about the bath.—Yours truly, J. E. SCRIVEN, [Our correspondent's pamphlet has been more than once referred to and quoted from in the columns of The Sun—to the readers of which, therefore, the above communication will for that very reason prove doubly interesting, if only as the record of Mr. Seriven's fresh experiences. —ED. SUN.] THE Loss OF THE GLASGOW. —Messrs. Inman and Co. have presented a valuable watch and chain to Captain Grace, of the National Steam Navigation Company's steamer Erin, as a mark of th e i r appreciation of his ser vices in receiving on board the passengers and crew of the Inman steamer Glasgow, burnt at sea. The watch bears the following inscription :—" Presented by the Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia Steamship Company to Capt. R. W. Grace, of the screw steamer Erin, for his humanity in receiving on board that ship the crew and passengers of the steamer Glasgovr, burnt at oa 31et July, 1.80." LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REU'I'ER'S TELEGRAMS.) SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN. MUNICH, Aua. 31. The official Bairische Zeitung of to-day declares the rumour that negociations had taken place at Vienna between Bavaria, Saxony, and Wurtemberg, in accordance with which the Minor States would cease to oppose the policy of the great German Powers in the Schleswig-Holstein question to be incorrect. Bavaria, on the contrary, has since the Convention become still more determined to take further steps in the Federal Diet, and maintains that the Duke of Augustenburg is alone entitled to the sovereignty of the Duchies. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. VIENNA, AUG. 31. The Chancellor of Hungary, Count von Maylath, has issued a circular, in which he designates as his first duty to harmonise the constitutional and his torical rights of Hungary with the position of Austria as one of the great Powers, and also to strengthen the union, founded by the Pragmatic Sanction, between Hungary and the other provinces of Empire by respecting mutual rights and interests, and taking into consideration the present state of things. The rumours here of Prussian declarations ren dering doubtful the execution of the Gastein con vention are unfounded. MEXICO. MEXICO, JULY 28. According to the last advices the road from Matamoras to Monterey was occupied by guerillas, and communication between the two towns entirely cut off. The jaurist bands lately defeated at El Portezulo and Santa Maria del Rio have separated, some re treating to the Valle de Purisuma, and the rest to the Haciendu of Palo-Blanco. Advices from Mineral del Catorce to the 17th July state that a French detachment had destroyed the guerilla band of Ildefonso Martinez. This chief was one of those who took part in the Nuevo Leon expedition under Negrete, and who surrendered at Monterey at the time of the occupation of that city by General de Castagny. News from Michoacan states that Ronda, who, at the beginning of the month, was at Purnamdiro, left that place on the 11th for Coeneo with 300 men Private letters from Monterey, to the 12th, state that upwards of 4,000 inhabitants of the former Confederate States had arrived in that city. Among them were several superior officers of the Southern army, some of whom, it was said, intended to take service in the Mexican army. It was stated that there was at least an equal number of Southern emigrants on the banks of the Rio Bravo. SPAIN. MADRID, AUG. 28. On the recent visit of Queen Isabella, to Bermeo, the ancient capital of Biscay, her Majesty expressed a desire to possess a branch from the " Holy Tree of the Liberti6s of Biscay," and to present another to the King. Two branches were accordingly cut and offered to the Royal visitor, on which occasion the following conversation is reported to have taken place between the Queen and the Deputy, General Senor Urquiza, to whom her Majesty delivered one of the branches. The Queen said, " Take this branch, and preserve it for my sake. I assure you that as these two branches," pointing to that des tined for the King,." belonged to one and the same tree, so shall our ideas be one and the same respecting the tree." Senor Urquiza replied, " Madame, this branch, placed in a frame bearing the precious words uttered by your Majesty will be the ornament of the Chamber in which we assemble." A petition was lately presented to the Queen to re-establish the Franciscan community formerly existing at Zarauz. This request, as might be ex pected, met with a refusal. Early in September her Majesty will lay the first stone of a monument co be erected at Motrico to the sailor Churricca, one of the Spanish officers engaged at Trafalgar. Espartero is represented in Ministerial circles to have latterly been himself less favourable to the continued non-participation of the Progressists in political affairs. The Central Progressist Com mittee meet in October. Should the non-partici pation policy be then adhered to, it will not be, it is believed, without energetic and authoritative protests. The new electoral law is said to have great weight with many unprejudiced and disin terested men of the party, who, believing.it to be based upon truly liberal principles, consider there is a powerful motive for abandoning a policy which, if persisted in, would be reduced to a barren menace. Very satisfactory intelligence on the subject of the cholera is received from Valencia. The epidemic is announced to be rapidly on the decline. The town is regaining the usual animation, and affairs are returning to their normal condition. Referring to the efforts of the Minister of Public Works for the encouragement of a modern system of agriculture in Spain, a Madrid journal points out that little advance can be made under the present deplorable ignorance of the agricultural class. The rural population read nothing of all that is published in Europe on this important matter, and, blindly attached to the routine trans mitted by tradition from father to son, persist in a system of cultivation very similar to that of Adam and Noah, leaving to Providence the care of con verting Spain into a new paradise or land of pro mise. Some little doubt begins to be expressed relative to the ability of Senor Martinez for the difficult task of conducting the financial affairs of the coun try in their present critical and complicated phase. It is even rumoured that, after the dissolution of the Cortes, Senor Salaverria would replace the pre sent Minister of Finance. FRANCE. PARIS, AUG. 31. The Moniteur of this morning contains the fol- towing : " The convention signed by the Great German Powers has just been published. It is not our intention to discuss its different clauses, but it is impossible for us not to point out the unfavourable reception it has met with even in Germany. The principle of the union of the Duchies is one which has hitherto been most constantly proclaimed by the Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin, but the Gastein stipulations proceed from a contrary order of ideas. They, moreover, imply no participation of the Duchies in the settlement of their own destinies, and take no account of the nationality of the inhabitants of Northern Schleswig. The two Courts, it is true, represent this arrangement to he provisional. They have only geograpically separated the use of their rights of sovereignty until afresh understand ing has been arrived at. It is therefore necessary to wait before passing a definite judgment upon their policy on the question of the Duchies. " Some French sf. ilors employed in the coral fishery on the African coast having been attacked by Tunisian Z ouavcs, our a c t i ng C onsu l-G enera l immediately lodged a complaint with the Govern.

Several Italian sailors having equally suffered from these acts of aggression, the Italian Consul made the same complaint, and ob tained similar reparation." The cattle plague has broken out at the Hague. The professors of the veterinary school at Utrecht have been ordered by the Government to inquire into the disease. The council-general of the Seine-Inferieure has voted the sum necessary for the purchase of the tower at Rouen in which Joan of Arc was confined previously to her execution. The journals of the Charente mention that certain fruits, such as figs, peaches, &c., are so abundant that, although the growers give them away to who ever will accept them, large quantities are left to perish.

The production of a new and original five-act tragedy is not a matter nowadays to be passed over without attention ; accordingly last night a very crowded audience assembled to witness the first representation of " Fra Angelo," by Mr. W. C. Russell (a son of Mr. Henry Russell, the musical composer.) We may as well at once say that the tragedy is, like most of the modern productions, faulty to a degree—it is devoid of interest, slow of action, intensely disagreeable, and full of common place similes. The plot is related we presume by the author, as we extract the following " argument" from the play-bill : The drama opens with an interview between the Duke de Carreto and his son Lorenzo. The duke, proud of a name venerable for its antiquity and renowned for its splendour, is anxious to see these honours perpetuated in his son ; and therefore discloses to him this secret of his heart, at the same time commending to his notice, as one by birth and position eminently adapted for the furtherance of these views, Leonora, the only daughter of the Mar quis de Volgenza. This hint, however, is received with every token of dissent by Lorenzo, who, after pointing out to his father the defects in the character of Volgenza, declares himself to be already in love. Fra Angelo, an elder brother of the Marquis, a hunch back, has been debarred from enjoying the rights of his seniority by a capricious and strange law of his ancestry, which forbids all offspring Deform 'd, unfinish'd, sent before their time Into this breathing world, scarce half made up, • ' from representing the house of Volgenza, unless an only child. Infuriated at the loss of his birthright, and mad dened at the lasting horror of his misfortunes, he meditates endless crimes against mankind, that by wreaking his ven geance on those who are innocent he may assuage the burn ing passions of his soul. The better to achieve his demo hiacal purposes, he masks his feelings beneath a religious aspect, a character so well assumed that he is universally recognised as a good and pious man ; he is treated with all the respect due to virtue, and, in the spirit of the times, ho receives the presnomen of Fra, by which title to both high and low he is generally known. Leonora, whose love for Lorenzo, although unrequited, has grown with her growth and increased with her years, is acquainted by Fra Angelo of the desire expressed by the Duke of seeing her united to his son; but he adds that Lorenzo has no love for her; that his affection is entirely bestowed upon another; and subsequently proves to her the truth of his story by showing her the spot where they meet. Shortly after Marina and Lorenzo enter, and, hidden from their view, Leonora hears him swear that Marina alone possesses his love. By a series of progressive exertions Fra Angelo first per suades the Marquis to sanction the murder of Marina, and then succeeds in inducing Leonora to acquiesce in the same terrible approval. But the agony of remorse over powering the determination of ldve, Leonora hurriedly writes to Lorenzo, acquaints him of the scheme aimed against Marina's life, and bids him haste to her rescue ere it be too late. Saved by the timely entrance of her beloved, Marina watches with horror the dying agonies of the wretch when the potion he has prepared for another he is compelled to swallow himself. The Marquis, impatiently waiting for the return of Fra Angelo, is terrified at the sudden entry of the Duke, Lorenzo, and Marina. Seeing that all is lost, with a sarcastic allusion to the vicissitudes of life, he is about to stab himself, when his arm is arrested by Lo renzo, and at the same time Leonora enters, pale and dying from the effects of a poison she has taken, resolved rather to perish than to submit to the humiliation of being pitied by the world and hated by herself. Her death, the sorrow of her surrounding friends, and the mental agony of the repentant marquis terminate the drama. It will at once be seen that the horrible element predominates, and that the moral sought to be in culcated is, that those deformed in body must be treacherous, detestable, and irretrievably bad. With all respect for the author, and givicg him the full benefit of dramatic licence, we must be allowed to differ with him. The character of Fra Angelo is a monstrosity—in fact (he must pardon us for saying it) an utter absurdity —such an one that only the fertile brain of Mr. Russell could conjure up. Then, with respect to the " sensation" portions of the tragedy, they also went beyond " the modesty of nature," and that which the author intended to be tremendously effective merely proved a pro vocative to mirth. Not only did " the unskilful laugh," but the whole audience joined in an irrepressible titter when the lady Leonora, the daughter of the Marquis de Volgenza, went plump down upon her knees before Lorenzo, and, point blank, asked him to love her ! Then, again, another incident that caused much merriment was the great scene of the tragedy, in which Fra Angelo is about to administer poison to Marina. Here the lady's lover, Lorenzo, rushes in, seizes the diabolical Fra, and, just as a determined parent administers brimstone and treacle to a troublesome child, so does he force the deadly potion down the throat of Angelo, who, of course,.kicks and splutters, but to no purpose, as all that is left him to do is to take the dose and die. The audience laughed outright, and certainly there was just cause for their hilarity. As far as the acting was concerned, Mr. Mont gomery made the most of the very conventional part of Lorenzo, while Miss Katharine Rodgers, as Leo nora, although slightly imitatingthe statuesque style of Miss Bateman, threw considerable force and pas sion into the character. It was her first appearance in London, but the part was not one calculated to enable her to do full justice to her abilities. She has a fine expressive face, a graceful bearing, and an agreeable voice, and doubtless she will be an acquisition to the metropolitan stage. Miss Louisa Moore enacted the part of Marina with much feeling, but Mrs. Marston's Emilia was the most artistic impersona tion of the piece. Mr. Vollaire raged and ranted throughout the part of Fra Angelo in the most ap proved Victoria style, and Mr. Fernandez was as stiff and as awkward as could be desired as the cowardly, cool, and revengeful Marquis. The tragedy has been mounted with the utmost care. The scenery and appointments were really beautiful, and we can only regret that they bad not to illustrate a more successful play. It is but just to say there vas considerable applause at the termination of the play, and that the principal performers were called before the curtain, the ladies being honoured with a shower of bouquets. On Saturday week, we believe, Mr. Montgomery's season terminates, but before the time we are pro mised a new historical play by Mr. M. F. Tupper, entitled " Alfred the Great," which we honestly and heartily wish may prove more successful than " Fra, Angelo." - LITERATURE. The Literature and Curiosities of Dreams. By Frank Seafield, M.A. Two vols. Chapman and Hall. Mr. Seafield has collected in these two goodly volumes (elegantly bound and printed on tinted paper) a mass of curious and interesting matter respecting the world of dreams. He describes his book as " a commonplace book of speculations con cerning the mystery of dreams and visions, records of curious and well-authenticated dreams, and notes on the various modes of interpretation adopted in ancient and modern times." It is not every one who can regard a vision of the night with a coolness and courage equal to that of Scrooge, when ad dressing the unwelcome Ghost of Marley—" You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are." The result of Mr. Seafield's very elaborate and be wildering explorations in the world of shadows leaves him, we are glad to find, still in possession of the common-sense belief that dreams are, for the most part, occasioned "by our present bodily sensa tions, or our previous waking thoughts, dispositions, and prevalent states of mind. A hard bed or an uncomfortable position will cause a dream of frac tured bones, or become suggestive of the rack and the wheel. The throat, say, is, tightly compressed by a too affectionate button, and the dream is of Calcraft and public perpendicular suffocation." Nearly two hundred different authors and autho rities are quoted in these volumes—ancient and modern, sacred and profane—Socrates and Mrs. Crowe, St. Augustine and Thomas Hobbes. Among the curiosities of literature this work may take its place—a goodly Substance evoked from Shadows. It does credit, in its patient research and skilful , combinations, to its author. We cannot say that it is likely to confer much benefit upon its readers— at least it may interest and perhaps astonish them. Etoniana, Ancient and Modern : being Notes of the History and Traditions of Eton College. Re published from Blachcood's Magazine, with Additions. One vol., pp. 332. Blackwood and Sons. " Floreat Etona !" should have been the motto of this work ; we are surprised not to find it on the title-page. It contains a delightful collection of Eton anecdotes, and the remaining chapters are devoted to the history of the college and collegians under the different provosts. Of these one of the most important describes the reign of Dr. Keate, so admirably portrayed by the author of " Eothen." It was of this master that the Italian modeller is said to have sold so many statues, " 0 yes, sare," he remarked, " Eton gentlemen buy him many times, they have much pleasure to break his head." The Pauper, the Thief, and the Convict ; Sketches of some of their Homes, Haunts, and Habits. By Thomas Archer, author of " Wayfe Summer," &c. One Vol., pp. 239. Groombridge and Sons. An interesting but melancholy volume on sin and sorrow as seen in our metropolis, in a London work house, in the House of Correction, in the gaol of Newgate, and finally at Millbank or Portland. It well deserves a thoughtfli perusal. The Progress of Medical Science (Churchill and Sons, Bvo., pp. 32)—is the title of a rather verbose and rhetorical lecture by Dr. Edward Ellis, whose confession of Medical Faith, nevertheless, as therein conveyed to the public at large as well as to the mem bers of his own learned profession, affords, as it appears to us, very favourable evidence, indeed, at once of his accomplishments as a man of letters and of his sagacity as a physician. he Anthropological Society's Anniversary Address, by Dr. James Hunt (Triibner and Co., Bvo., pp. 32), was in every respect sufficiently noticeable to de serve the honour here accorded to it of separate publication. In the far-reaching scope of its survey it is an address not unworthy of having fallen from the lips of the President of the Anthropological Association—a society, the main object -of which, according to Dr. Hunt's own view, is the formation, the consolidation, and expansion of a reliable Science of Mankind. Serious Railway Collision. An accident of a very terrible nature happened to a Mid land excursion train, when passing the 031ney Hatch Sta tion, Great Northern Railway, last night, by which between 20 and 30 of the passengers were more or less injured, and a serious amount of the railway stock destroyed. The train was run by the Midland Railway Company from Notting ham, Derby, and the adjacent places, and was timed to arrive at King's-cross at a quarter before 8 o'clock. It had proceeded as far as the Colney Hatch Station in safety ; but at that part of its journey it ran into a coal or goods train, with the unfortunate result stated. It appears that the arrival of this excursion train was known to the offi cials at the Colney Hatch Station, and that the goods train was being shunted out of its way when the up train came into collision with' it. The passengers describe the shock as terrible, and it is astounding that the casualties which consequently ensued were not far more serious than re ported. The officials at King's-cross state that there are from 20 ttr 30 sufferers, but up to 2 o'clock this (Thursday) morning no fatal case had been reported. The engine of the excursion train, after it had dashed into the goods train, smashing several of them to pieces, fell over, and now lies on its side in a very damaged state. The up line was blocked up by the fragments of broken carriages. The station-master at Colney Hatch at once forwarded a telegram to King's-cross, reporting the serious nature of the collision , and took immediate measures for relieving the wounded passengers. They were, after con siderable difficulty, extricated from amidst the debris of the smashed carriages, and those who were seriously in jured taken to an adjoining hotel, but the majority were enabled to proceed to town by a short train, which was sent up on the down line. Orders were given to collect some of the fragments of the broken carriages, and light a fire by which to work in removing some of the ob struction which had completely stopped all traffic. The officials at King's-cross, immediately they received infor mation of the accident, procured a staff of officers, with some medical men, and despatched them to the scene of the collision, where their services were urgently needed. The cause of the collision is not known—atleast whether any person is guilty of culpable negligence. It is stated that the " block" signal was on at the distance, so as to pre vent the driver of the excursion train from passing, but that he either did not see it or else did not attend to it. The guard of the train states that the whistle sounded, and that he applied his break, which would seem to prove that the driver was attending to his duties. It is certain, how ever, that from some unfortunate cause or another the ex cursion train did proceed, and came into collision with the goods train, which was being shunted at that moment. The traffic was stopped for several hours, and at last the up trains had to be passed on by the down line. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Last evening a serious accident occurred to an excursion train returning by the Great Northern Railway to London. On Saturday last a large number of persons availed them selves of a four days' excursion to Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, &c., the return train being due yesterday evening at a quarter before eight at King's-cross. The passengers, who, having enjoyed their holiday, took their seats for the return journey, proceeded safely homeward, though somewhat behind time, as far as Colney Hatch, but between this station and Wood Green, near Southgate sta tion, the excursion train, which was of great length, ran into a coal train, and the engine, after smashing two or three waggons of coal, ran off the rails and turned over on its side. Many of the excursionists were much cut and bruised, and a large number greatly shaken, but up to a late hour this (Thursday) morning it was impossible to ascertain exactly the 'Amber that were hurt, nor the extent of their injuries. As soon as the accident was made known, seve ral medical men were in attendance at the station at King's cross. Mr. Christopher Heath, of Saville-row ; Mr. Luke, Euston-road ; Dr. Paul, of Burton-crescent, and others rendered efficient help to the sufferers, and on the scene of the accident Dr. Kirkwood, medical attendant to the com pany, was present, and superintended the removal of the injured passengers to London. Among those most seri ously hurt were Miss Broughton, Liverpool-street, who was suffering from concussion of the brain ; Master Sharpe, a boy eight years old, also suffering from concussion of the brain ; Mr. Dawson, from Brighton, who, instead of proceeding to hid' home, as he had purposed, was com pelled by a serious contusion of the knee to stop at the Great Northern Hotel. Mrs. Hitchcock and her son, from Hoxton, as well as a lady residing in Hatton-garden, name not given, are also very severely bruised; a young lady from Cleveland-square, much shaken and bruised ; Miss Innocent, 17, Albert-street, Paddington -green, badly cut in the eye. Several other passengers were also compelled by their bruises and hurts to remain at the Great Northern Hotel, and one or two remained at Southgate under the care of Dr. Kirkwood. Court - Cantu: THE QUEEN AT COBURG. THE ROSENAU, Aug. 27. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Crown Prince and Princess of Prussia, Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, and the Duke of Cambridge arrived at the Palace at Coburg on Thursday and Friday, and have visited her Majesty at the Rosenau. Her Majesty the Queen left the Rosenau yesterday after noon, at half-past 3 o'clock, for Coburg, for the purpose of inaugurating the statue of his Royal Highness the Prince Consort, which her Majesty has presented to the town of Coburg, the ceremony for the inauguration of which had been ordered and approved by his Royal Highness the Duke of Saxe-Coburg. The Queen, the Royal Family, and suite occupied four carriages. The first contained her Majesty the Queen, their Royal Highnesses the Princess Helena, Princess Louise, and Prince Arthur ; and the second their Royal Highnesses Prince Leopold and Princess Beatrice, the Duchess of Roxburgh and Lady Churchill. Both carriages were drawn by four grey ponies, with out-riders and footmen in scarlet, and with postillions in the Ascot liveries. The other carriages conveyed Miss Bauer, Major-General F. Seymour, C. 8., Major Elphinstone, C. 8., Dr. Jenne; M. Sahl, and Mr. Buff. Lieutenant-General the Hon. C. Grey and Major-General Sir T. M. Biddulph rode in uniform on either side of her Majesty's carriage. On arriving at Coburg, Count Koller, the Duke of Saxe- Coburg's principal Equerry, conducted her Majesty to the Market-place, where her Majesty was received by a guard of honour, the band playing " God Savo the Queen," and the fortress saluting with a discharge of artillery. The statuo had been placed in the centre of the Market place on a granite pedestal, and is of colossal size, in bronze, by Mr. Theed, of London, and cast at Nuremberg. It re presents the Prince standing in the robes of the Garter, with the collar of the Garter and the Coburg Order, carry ing a Field-Marshal's baton. It was covered with drapery, to be removed at her Majesty's command. ,t Their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Prince Alfred handed her Majesty on her arrival from her carriage, and conducted her up the steps of the Pavilion which bad been erected for the occasion, and in which was assemblei all the Royal visitors (with their suites) who at tended the ceremony. The Queen having advanced to the front immediately facing the statue, the Burgomaster of Coburg stood forward and addressed'her Majesty in the name of the town. The statue was then uncovered amid the acclamations of the people, a flourish of trumpets, and firing of cannon. The Coburg March was played immediately afterwards, during which 200 young ladies of Coburg, dressed in white and wearing the English and Saxon colours, placed wreaths at the foot of the statue. After this the hymn " Eine feste Burg," composed by Luther at Coburg, was sung, and the Burgomaster was sent for, and her Majesty addressed a few words of thanks to him. The Queen, with the Duke and all the royal personages, then descended from the pavilion to the foot of the statue and placed her own nosegay there, and was handed back to her carriage by the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Prince Alfred, and drove round the town of Coburg, in which every house was decorated in honour of the occasion. Her Majesty returned to Rosenau at 5 o'clock. --o-- THE RETURN OF HER MAJESTY.—We are in formed that the various statements as to the day the Queen and princess will return home from Germany are not to be relied upon. There is no doubt but that the Queen and royal family will be at Windsor Castle about the Bth or 9th proximo, and after a short residence at tho Castle will go to Balmoral. His Royal Highness Prince George of Solms will leave town this evening on a visit to Lord Lovat at Beau fort Castle, Inverness-shire. The Duke of Northumberland is entertaining a large family party at Alnwick Castle, Northumberland. The Duke and Duchess of Manchester are ex pected home shortly from a tour in Germany. The Duchess Dowager of Sutherland is expected to arrive at Stafford House to-morrow from Vichy. The Marchioness of Abercorn has been detained at Tunbridge Wells from an attack of influenza. The marchioness has been, since leaving town, staying with the Countess of Mount-Edgcumbe. Yesterday the Countess of Lichfield passed through town from the family seat in Staffordshire, to visit her mother. The Earl of Dalhousie is still receiving company at Invermark, N.B. The marriage of the Earl of Listowel and Miss Bruce, daughter of Lord and Lady Ernest Bruce, takes place this morning at St. George's Church, Hanover square.

The Hon. Arthur Kinnaird has gone on a tour to the United States of America till the meeting of Parlia ment. DEATH OF SIR J. H. PALMER.—Sir John Henry Palmer died on Saturday last at Carlton Park, Northamptonshire, at the very advanced age of 90 years. The deceased, the seventh baronet, succeeded to the ba ronetcy on the death of his nephew, Sir Thomas, in April, 1817. He married in 1808 Mary Grace, eldest daughter of Lewis, second Lord Sondes, by whom he had a family of six sons and three daughters. Lady Mary died in Novem ber, 1853. His eldest son, Geoffrey, succeeds him in the baronetcy. The present baronet was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple in 1838. The first baronet, Sir Geoffrey, became Attorney-General and Chief-Justice of Chester temp. Charles 11. Several of the baronets of the family have represented their native county in Parliament. Crystal Palace Autumn Exhibition of Flowers. If it were possible to paint the lily and gild refined gold the Crystal Palace might be said to have undergone that process yesterday by the annual autumn exhibition of flowers and fruit, which took place under most favourable circumstances. The flowers now in bloom in the delightfu l gardens of the palace are to be seen in great perfectioi l l and rival in some respects those which constitute the sP." cial " show" inside the building. Added to this, the rich autumnal tints of the surrounding foliage give a most har monious background to the brilliant and varied colours of the later flowers of the year. Special attention, however, was yesterday directed to the show of flowers and fruits which was displayed under spacious awnings ranged in din aisle on either side of the central transept. The specimen° were certainly the perfection of floricultural art, and de served the favourable encomiums which were passed upoo them by the numerous visitors present. The dahlias Inns be presumed to rank in the first place, although the aster° were certainly conspicuous for delicaCy of form an ci , beauty of colour. The first prize in the former was award ed to Mr. J. Keynes, of Salisbury, and very deservedly, l et the flowers exhibited by him were acknowledged to D e . magnificent specimens. There was also a very beautify.' display by Mr. J. C. Perry, of Castle Bromwich, w i t ° obtained the first prize in the fourth class (for amateurs only). The roses and verbenas likewise appeared to gr eat perfection, and were very generally admired. With re gard to the fruit it need only be said that it was se Pe cu liarly tempting that it would have been somewhat dan gerous to have displayed it without the necessary safe guard of a barrier, especially as a great portion o f the visitors were of the juvenile class, who seemed ha rdly content with feasting the e y e a l one, b u t w h o ne verthel7 must be admitted to have behaved with exemplary n e s , denial. On the whole, th e s h ow was an ex t re mely o°ll factory one, and g ave a b un d an t reason f or the opin ion that autumnal beauti es f rom th e gar d en are well fitted to vie with the more familiar products of summer.
