The Parliament of 1847 dates from this day the close of its existence, having been prorogued by the SOVEREIGN prior to its formal dissolution. The cir cumstance cannot be vgratted by the nation—re membering, as the people cannot fail to do, the extra eirdinary shortcomings of the recent House of Corn rams. It was characteristic of the dubious position of the representatives returned at the last general election by the various constituencies, that their legis lative labours commenced under the auspices of a Whig Cabinet i n a minority, and terminated under the authority of a Tory Cabinet in, a minority. Survi v i n g an interval of five pars, and accomplishing no less than six sessions, the Parliament of 1847 witnessed its inauguration, under the feeble and vacill a ti ng temerity of the ..„ RIISIELL Government, and beheld its dismissa l, in i 1 1852, under the scarcely less feeble and vacillating rit'ev fines;; of tho DERBY Administrati on . Its achieve t -,--, ta base consequently been dfstingulAed by gl -1 -. : ..,-;• 2 _____. kindred weakness and a corresponding uncertainty. Whatever r'Arms have been yielded have been that forgotten, n , yielded only piecemeal and w i t h reluctance. It must in extenuation of this fact, however, period traversed since the hour of its fi rs t assembling at Westminster has been one of almost unexampled anxiety, and, in some particulars also, of unprecedented confusion. Scarcely had the disasters consequent upon the Irish famine been ameliorated by a wonderful and touchin g muni ficence, w hen the whole political framework of Europe was convulsed by the outbreak of a sudden and ter rible revolution. Against the shock of that revolu tion the Legislature of Great Britain had to present a stalwort and unshaken front—and nobly, it must be allowed, did it in this respect fulfil the anticipation of the English multitude. It continued even at the stormiest periods of the great political convulsion to maintain a serene and elevated attitude—directing its energies to the toils of internal administration ; and while it vindicated the magna• nimity of the Constitution by maintaining the invio lability of the shelter accorded refugees from foreign countries, it withstood the aggressive influences of the Socialist and Communist conspiracies. Among the historical incidents to be recorded of the Par liament of 1847, its sitting on the 10th of April, 1848, cannot speedily be lost to remembrance. Upon that occasion it preserved the tranquil dignity of discussion at the moment when the metropolis was agitated by the dread of in surrection. In all these critical situations, it must be related to the honour of the Whig Ministry, that the Legislature received the most powerful of all encou ragement through the self-possession of a hesitating, but still, on emergency, courageous and patriotic Government. Especially it must be borne in mind that the glory of the example of Ministerial daring thus set before the House of Commons belongs by right individually to Lord PALMERSTON. In spirited by the decision and boldness of his po licy, the Parliament persisted in supporting every act of his adminstration. For inasmuch as these facts are undeniable, the House of Commons elected in the summer of 1847—with all its faults— must be borne iu respectful, and in some sort also, grateful remembrance. Conspicuous among the achievements of the late Parliament was the abrogation of the laws relating to navigation. This, it will be recollected, was a pru dent and necessary corollary to the inauguration of tha Free Trade system. Besides this, it placed upon an equality sugar both foreign and co lonial, added to which it has materially improved the Poor-law system of Ireland —and, by a memor able enactment, has singularly facilitated the sale of the encumbered estates in the sister island. It has relaxed the stringency of the entail system in Scotland. It 113.3 adventured —however slowly or inadequately—it has adventured upon the begin ning of some real sanitary improvements. It has countenanced, moreover, the enormous efforts made by Lord BROUGHAM and others with a view to a i t h or ough Legal Reformation. As to its efforts in the cause of education, we cannot but think that they are so infinitesimal in their character as to be abso lutely worthless for any good they may be expected to produce. Partial efforts in reference to colo nial and financial reforms have only so far benefited the country, that they have awakened the knowledge of the community to the necessity of some _ speedy and comprehensive innovations. In this respect, as preliminary to the House of Com mons about to be elected early in the autumn of 1852, the Parliament of 1847 cannot but be regarded as one, the labours of which are a veritable source of satisfaction. Therefore it is that we have witnessed its final pro rogation, and await its immediate dissolution, not without some kind of grateful appre ciation—but with a sense of pleasure which bids us look forward with no feeble degree of interest to the nomination and selection of the new representatives. Lord BROUGHAM'S recommendation that a Royal Commission should forthwith issue for the purpose of inquiring into the practice and jurisdiction of the county courts, is, like every other suggestion on matters of legal reform emanating from the same quarter, eminently worthy of consideration. It is now certain that local. tribunals cannot be dis pensed with, that whatever improvements may be effected in the superior courts, still justice must be administered in every important locality, so that debts may be recovered without unneces sary delay or expense. There cannot now be a retrograde movement. Measures that would formerly have been received with gratitude, and have completely satisfied the expectations of the people, would not for a moment be considered as eligible substitutes for the enactments which, although defective in many important particulars, still " brought justice home" to every man's threshold. The great object then must be to render these tri bunals as efficient as possible, and to make available to the greatest extent practicable the services of the several judges, whose attention will no longer be dis tracted by private business, and the necessity of de voting the greater portion of their time to attendance in Westminster Hall, far from the district in which the tribunals over which they preside are situate. There can be no possible reason now why the seve ral judges should not become residents within their respective jurisdictions, and, like the Irish assistant barristers, ex-officio magistrates of the counties. Their assistance at quarter-sessions would be exceedingly valuable. There would be the cer tainty that one or more competent persona would take part in every trial, and the jurisdiction under s Util circumstances might be materially extended, by which means considerable savings would be effected in local taxation, and greater security against illegal or improper convictions. The f ee system should also b e abolished. There is a - general feeling abroad that justice should be gratuitously adminstered, that every person who hhi:Culdbbeeenentitilneqj ure d in person or property s to redress, without being mulcted in heavy fees t would seem ex - Ce lt number of different o fficials. It eaingle strange if any ni g h, been h sub ject, who had - ' -grossly maltreated by the agents of some foreign P"R", cou ld no t have his case taken into consideration, or explanations afforded , without handing over considerable gums the housekeepers, to •n functionaries at Downing street, ngs street, together with a geetna y • to the "coachman" doorkeepers, and othe r of the Foreign Secretary ' • and - hat all his memorials and applications should be tea are laid before the officials. It wort appear an extraor dinary mode of affurding " protection:* • • tx rm r cttizens a 4 r, _ before they to compel them to pay for it so he wed , as to defray a considerable portion of the '' ' expenses of the diplomatic and consular establishments, d an yet the fee system in our courts of justice is scarcely more anomalous. No suitor can seek relief without paying heavy stamp duty, or other fees, and, if his case should come to trial, fees to court keepers, ushers, criers, &c., and if in the Exchequer, to the Lord Chief Baron's coac hman. It was the number and magnitude of these stamps, fees, and other charges, that first occa sioned the demand for cheap justice. But the evil was continued in the remedial enactments. The Legislature fell into the grave mi s t a k e o f endeavour ing to make the local establishments self-supporting, forgetting that the entire fee system had been a° loudly and generally complained of, and that the tendency of modern legislation was to substitute salaries for fees in every country had no ri g h t to look for any payment instance, and that th e civilly w h a t . soever;•• more especi a ll y to realisea profit, on the administrati on o f j ust i ce, either Or criminally. Lord BROUGIIAM truly declared " that the Governme n t was b oun d to affordprotectio n on this . point to the subject in return for his alle giance." We may add, in return for the surrender of a certain portion of his national liberty and his contribution to the liquidati on o f t h e national liabi lities, and to the maint enance o f the national es tablishments. There is another point in relation to these tri bunals that should also be strictly scrutinized. The relation of the local courts to the Court for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors is in by no means a satisfactory condition. Several judges arrogate to themselves the right of completely ignoring the pro ceedings of another court of concurrent jurisdiction. Under the rules of practice settled by the Lop CaLEY BARON, and Judges CRESWELL, WIGHTMAN, ERLE, and WILLIAMS, un der the provisions of the Act, it is provided (Reg.l9) in what manner the debtor may avail himself of a discharge under any Act for the relief of insolvent debtors, and yet (after judgment) several judges habitually disre. • the plea. In a recent instance, apa .10(1 been discharged after a strict and .'ng investigation into his conduct. Among the Oppostig creditors was one who had obtained a judgment in a county court. His complaints were heard, and deemed not sufficient to warrant the further incarceration of the debtor. Not satisfied, however, with the result he issued a judgment summons, and although the adjudication of the Judge of the Insolvent Court was proved, and also the fact of the attendance of the plaintiff at the hearing, an order of commitment for, we believe, forty days was made, the Judge thus assuming a power not belonging to any of the Judges of the superior Courts. It has also recently been held, that although there may be a rehearing after the adjudication of any of the Learned Cornrai 6- sinners, whose entire time bas been devoted to acquiring a thorough knowledge of the insolvent code, there can be no appeal from, or rehearing o f o ne, by a county-court judge, however palp a bly erro neous his decision may be. These and other matters require speedy am en dment, a Royal and in no mode is the desideratum m ore likely to be effected than in that suggested by L or d Bit" Gui :r . the immediate issuing of similar to that of last year on th e Commission an jec Reform. b . t Chancery THE FRENCH REIAJBLIC, We have received the Paris journals of on the message of the PRINCE The Const . tut . z tonnel of yesterday has the teethefllowing yesterday. gislative Body :-- " There is one fact that must be stated and that is the lively impression produced in the piiissipzerr Le public mind by the message which the President of the Republic has just addressed to the Legislative BodY ware of calling hostile, but divergent, first session.

Listened to and respected, they have proved in the first place, as was stated in the message, that the control of the Legislative Body is serious, that discussion is there free, and that the vote of the taxes is there decisive. They h ave proved also that there exists in the Legislative Body a considerable majority, full of gratitude towards Louis N for all the ser vices which he has already rendered to the country, fall of confidence in his wisdom, his moderation, and his firmness; a majority always eager, and bold to support and defend his Government. .

Applause is never wanting in rance for such a happy alliance of honesty and talent. The first session of tho Legislative Body and the mes sage of Louis Napoleon will reanimate, if it be neces sary, in every heart, confidence in the future, and those sentiments of conciliation and concor d which van q uished factions and the implacable enemies of society so much dreaded." _ _ The Senate met on Tuesday, M.

The various up, and Com m i ttees ordered to be named on them. Some reports on p e titions having been pre • sented, th e s it t i ng was b rought to a close. A great n um b e r o f th e mem b ers of the Leg i slat ive Body assembled on the,same evening at the Casino in the Chausee d'Antin, at a farewell banquet. Up wards of 150 sat down to dinner, and the utmost cor diality and good A feeling prevailed. At the dessert, M. BILLAULT, the President of the Legislative Body, proposed the health of Prince Louis NAPOLEON, which was drunk with unanimous marks of appro bation. The Senate will remain at work for about a fort night longer, as it has to give its approbation to the bills adopted by the Legislative Body, and to delibe rate on the two Senatus Consults submitted to it— one on the High Court of Justice, and the other on the constitution of the colonies. Several members of the Senate were anxious to leave Paris at once, but orders were issued not to give passports to any but those who had a regular leave of absence. It is believed that the next session of the Legisla tive Body will take place about the end of January. The Government, to that effect, is about to hasten the vacation of the Council of State, which used gene rally to begin about the commencement of Septern ber. This year the time will be from August 15 to October 15, as LOUIS NAPOLEON is anxious that the Council of State should have three clear months before it to prepare the bills which he intends to submit to the Legislative Body on its re -assembling. The budget for 1854 is not to be prepared by the Ministers, but by the Council of State. The Patrie says it is assured that the PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic will honour with his presence the inauguration of the Strasbourg railroad, which is fixed for the 17th July. The celebrated physician, M. RECAMIER, died almost suddenly, on Monday night, in Paris. He was in his 78th year. BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE gi LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, Jultz 30.

MT LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, I am induced by considerations of public policy to release you at an earlier period than usual from your legislative duties. The zeal and diligence, however, with which you have applied yourselves to your Parliamentary labours, have enabled me, in this comparatively short Session, to give my assent to many measures of high importance, and, I trust, of great and perma nent advantage, I receive from all Foreign Powers assurances that they are animated by the most friendly disposi tions towards this country ; and I entertain a confi dent hope that the amicable relations happily sub sisting between the principal Europeon States may be so firmly established as, under Divine Providence, to secure to the world a long continuance of the bles sings of Peace. To this great end my attention will be unremittingly directed. I rtjoice that the final settlement of the affairs of Holstein and Schleswig, by the general concur rence of the Powers chiefly icterested, has removed one came of recent difference and of future anxiety. The amicable termination of the discussions which have taken place between the Sublime Porte and the Pacha of Egypt afford a guarantee for the tranquillity of the East, and an encouragement to the extension of commercial enterprise. The refusal on the part of the King of Ave, of redress, justly demanded for insults and injuries offered to ray subjects at Rangoon, has necessarily led to at interruption of friendly relations with that So vereign. The promptitude and vigour with which the Governor- General of India has taken the mea sures thus rendered unavoidable, have merited my entire approbation ; and I am confident that you will participate in the satisfaction with which I have observed the conduct of th e navel and military forces, European and Indian, by whole valour and discipline the important captures of Rangoon and Martaban have been accomplished ; and in the hope which I entertain that these signal successes may lead to an early :and honourable peace. Treaties have been concluded by my naval com manders with the King of Dahomey and all the African chiefs whose rule extends along the Bight of Benin, for the total abolition of the Slave Trade, which is at present wholly suppressed upon that coast. I have had great satisfaction in giving my assent to the measure which you have wisely adopted for the better organisation of the Militia ; a constitutional force, which being limited to purposes of internal de fence, can afford no just ground of jealousy to neigabouring Powers ; but which, in the event of any sudden and unforeseen disturbance of my foreign relations, would at all times contribute essentially to the protection and security of my domions. GENTLEMEN OF THB House OF COMMONS, I thank you for the liberal provision which you have made for the exigencies of the public service. The expenditure which you have authorised shall be applied with a due regard to economy and efficiency. The recent discoveries of extensive gold-fields have produced, in the Austrian Colonies, a temporary disturbance of society, requiring prompt atten tion. 1 have taken such steps as appeared to me most urgently necessary for the mitigation of this serious evil. 1 shall continue anxiously to watch the important results which must follow from these dis• coveries. I have willingly concurred with you in an Act, which, by rendering available to the service of those Colonies the portion arising within them, of the Hereditary Revenue placed at the disposal of Par- Heinen; on my accession to the Throne, may enable them N meet their necessarily increased expenditure. Mx lAMBS AND GENTLEMEN, I Save gladly assented to the important Bills which you have passed for effecting reforms, long and anxiously desired in the practice and proceedings of the Stperior Courts of Law and Equity, and generaly for improving the administration of justice. Every measure which simplifies the forms, and dimi nishes the delay and expense of legal proceedings, with out intoducing uncertainty of decision, impairing the authority of the Courts, or lowering the high standard of the Judicial Bench, is a valuable boon conferred upon the community at large. I hope that the measures which you have a d o pted for promoting extramural interment of the dead, I,nd for improving the supply o f wa t er, may be fousd effectual for the remedy of evils the ex istence of which has long been a reproach to this grea t metropolis, and may conduce to the health and co! nfort of its inhabitants. The extension of popular rights and legislative to subjects resident i n th e co l on i es, i s to ! li me an object of deep interest; and I trust that the representative institutions w hi c h , i n with you, I have sanctioned f or N ew zd may promote the welfare a n d con t entment of the( p o p ulation of that dis tant but most in terestiag colony, and confirm their l oya l ty and attachinent to my Crown. concert ealan , If, is my intention, without delay, to dissolve this present Parliament, and it is my earnest prayed, that in the exercise of the high fuoo tions which aceorcliokr to our free Constitution will devolve upon the several constituencies, be directed by an all- w i se P rov id ence to they r Y•3' tho s election of representatives, whose wisdom and ioaid me in my un ceas i ng en d eavours to sustain atris thehonour and dignity o f my C rown, to uphold tm may the Protestant institutions of the country, and the civil and religious liberty, which is their natural result ; to extend and improve the National Education ; to develope and encourage Industry, Art, and Science; and to elevate the moral and social condition, and thereby promote tho welfare and hap. piness of my people. THE PARLIAMENTARY SESSION OF 1852.—The sth session of the 15th and 16th Victoria, whose career termi nates to-day, though comparatively a brief one, has endured longer than at one period could have been anticipated. It was opened by the Queen in person on the 3d of February, and has therefore lasted four calendar months and twenty eight days, being one month and six days shorter than its predecessor of 1851. The House of Commons has sat during that period on eighty days, their sittings occupying in all 580 hours, or an average of 7 1 4 hours each. The number of hours sat past midnight was 55 1 4. The Lords during the same period have sat on only 69 days, and their sittings oc cupied 157 hours, being an average of 2 1 4 hours each. There have been during the session 121 divisions in the Commons, and five in the Lords. The phenomenon known in Parlia mentary language as a " no house" has occurred but once— on the 18th of May. The " counts out" have been four in number, two of the occasions for which were afforded by Mr. Chisholm Anstey, the Member for Youghal. They were as follows :—April ith, when the House was in Com mittee upon the Suitors in Chance r y R e li e f Bill ( to which the royal assent was yesterday given) ; April 26th, of pure exhaustion, at half-past one in the morning; April 27th, on of Mr. Anstey's relative to Col one l O utram ; and June again,lsth, on a motion by the s ame H on. G entleman relative tothe expulsion of British subje c t s f rom the Aus trian d i°ll ominions. T HE METROPOLITAN BOROUGHS.—According to the late census, as appears from a Parliamentary return just there are in the w rower Hamlets 75,710 i n h a b ited and the population is 539,111 ; in l\larylebone, 40,513 inhabited houses, and the population 370,9 57; in 37,427 inhabited houses, and the p opulation houses, printed, Finsbury, 323,772; in Lambeth, 39,154 inhabited hous es , an d the po pulation 251,345 ; in Westminster, 24,755 inhabited houses, and the population 241,611; and in Southwark, 23,751 inha bited houses, and the population 172,863. THE POLISH REFUGEE LEOPOLD DE ROSE. The following correspondence, which has taken place between two of the Justices of the Peace for the county of Hants, and Lord Dudley Stuart, respecting the Polish refugee Leopold de Rose, was read in the House of Commons yesterday by tho Noble Lord : From one of the Justices of the Peace for the county of Hants : " June 2, 1852. "My Lord,—l had a visit yesterday from Lieutenant Chas. Szulezewski and Mr. De Rose. The former came to make inquiries of me respecting Mr. De Rose's im prisonment for begging, &c. I can only say I consider he has been shamefully used by Captain Hamilton, who resided at Anglesey, near Gos port, and who is now appointed to a ship at Wool wich. My brother magistrate, Dr. Hillyer, could do no more than imprison Mr. De ose, as Captain Hamilton swore, that ho wandered abroad to beg and gather alms contrary to the form of the Statute its such case made, &c., &c. Now it does appear to me to be a very extra ordinary thing that Mr. De Rose should beg of Captain Hamilton, when I well know that Mr. De Rose could get 51. or 101. whenever he liked to ask for it, by writ ing to a neighbour of mine, one of the first families in the county, but he has never done so. Moreover the policeman took Mr. De Rose into custody, without warrant and without teeing him ask alms. " I am, my Lord, " Your obedient servant. " To Lord Dudley Stuart, M.P." From Thomas Hoskins, Esq., lately Tithe Com missioner, and now auditor of the. accounts of the guardians of the poor at Gosport, Portsmouth, and the Isle of Wight : " Gosport, June 26, 1852. " My Lord,—At the request of my excellent friend the Mayor of Southampton, I have felt great pleasure in ac companying Lieutenant Charles Szulczewski and Mr. Leopold De Rosa to the several places of abode of Mr. Tilston, Mr. Wyatt, Mr. Biden, Captain Blake, Mr. Meggs, Mr. Welch, Miss Slane, and Miss Nott, all of whom I have known for many years as most highly re spectable people. And I can assure your Lordship that I have heard with great delight the testimony which each of those ladies and gentlemen gave to the character and deportment of Mr. Leopold De Rose, who, although reduced to the necessity of offering his articles for sale, always did so with the marked conduct of a highly honourable man and a gentleman. He was immediately recognised by each, was most pleasantly received by all, and deeply sympathised with for the manner in which he had been treated, which, as some did not hesitate to state, was " a disgrace to the country." So far from begging, ono lady stated that she had offered him two shillings for an article of one shilling value, which he most honourably declined to take. " The result is most satisfactory to my mind that Mr. De Rose has behaved in this neighbourhood in a manner highly creditable to himself and his country, and that he is entitled to the esteem and the sympathy of all who detest tyranny and oppression. " I have the honour to be, " Yonr Lordship's_ most obedient servant " THOMAS HOSKINS. "Lord Dudley Stuart, M.P., 8:c. &c." HAYMARKET THEATRE. A petite comedie, in one act, entitled A. Novel E x p e . dient, was brought o ut last night with unequivocal suc cess. Three persons only are involved in the acti on . The principal of these is Mrs. Charles Moore (M rs . Stirling), who is greatly annoyed by the addition t o her manage of an intimate friend of her husband, named Damon (M i r. Leigh Murray). This intruder criticises her drawings, gives his opinion . as to the paper whi c h should decorate the drawing-room, and, what is more than all, constantly takes out her husband on fishing expeditions. She hints to Charles (Mr. Howe) that Damon's departure would be acceptable, but finds him inexorable on the point. She, there fore, resolves to employ some new device, and is furnished with a hint in a letter from an absent aunt, who always wishes to uphold the domestic supremacy of woman. The good aunt counsels her, by reference to an episode in Lesage, to declare to Damon that she is secretly enamoured of him, and that there fore he is bound, as a man of honour, to quit the house. Damon at first falls into the trap, and is actually going, when he picks u p th e aunt's letter by accident, and per ceiving the real s tat e of the case alarms Mrs. Moore by , feigning a reciprocal passion. A little unpleasant alter cation with the husband ensues, but an explanation clears up all difficulties, and Mrs. Moore, cured of her love of domination, resolves not to disturb her husband's friendship for Damon. The piece is elegant and well written, and excellently played as it is by Mrs. Stirling, Mr. Leigh Murray, and Mr. Howe, produces an agree able effect. POOR HOOD! WRITTEN AT ICENSAL-GREEN CEMETERY. (From Eliza Cook's Journal.) What gorgeous cenotaphs arise, Of Parian shrine and granite vault, Whose blazoned claims on purer skies Shut out all earthly flaw and fault. Who lies below yon splendid tomb That stretches out so broad and tall? The worms will surely ne'er exhume A sleeper locked within such wall. And see, that other stately pile Of chiselled glory, staring out; Come, Sexton, leave your work awhile, And tell us what we ask about. Sol ono belongs to him who held A score of trained and tortured steeds; Great Circus Hero, unexcelled! — On what strange stuff Ambition feeds. The other guards the last repose Of one who shone by juggling craft; Methinks when such a temple rose How Esculapius must have laughed. And see that tomb beneath yon tree!— But, Sexton, tell us where to find The grave of him we came to see; — Is it not here, or are we blind? W e me an poor Hood, the man who made That song about the " Bridge of Sighs ;" You know the song I well, leave your spade, And please to show us where he lies. What, there I without a single mark, — Without a stone, without a line, — Does watchfire Genius leave no spark To note its ashes as divine ? Must strangers come to woo his shade, Scanning rare marbles as they pass ; And, when they pause where he is laid, Stop at a trodden mound of grass ? And is it thus ? well, we suppose England is' far too poor to spare A slab of white, where truth might write The title of her Poet-Heir. Let us build pillars strong and high, On which the sculptured form is sot ; And when our growing sons ask why, Name Royal Duke and Royal Debt. Let us raiso statues far and near, Amid our busiest highways, Colossal yonder—life-like here— Where all the world may pass and praise. And when Posterity asks who We bore so far from Lethe's flood, Let Record couple Waterloo With one whom Fame baptized in blood. Let us adorn our city walks With idiot king and senate chief, — Carve toga-folds and laurel stalks, — There's something grand in robe and leaf. But Hood—" poor Hood!"—the poet fool Who sung of Woman's woes and wrongs, Who taught his Master's Golden Rule, — Give him no statue for his songs. on think immortal mor that tai ho to torch,-- Give him the dust beneath his head, 1 , Give o fl h u ira ng a G g o r d a s e l — ig a ht g r r o a u v n o dy o wl alone; In Life ho dearly won his bread,— w In Death—he is not worth a stone! Perhaps ' rhap ii s l we hold righ tly its thing s Can soar above, in Memory's lo ve , Without the aid of marbl e w i ngs. " Poor Hood!" thy spi r it w ill not fret, Our Shakapere only can be met Within a narrow Playhouse Porch. " Poor Hood !" for whom a chaplet wreaths Of heart-born flowers that never die; " Poor Hood!" for whom a requiem breathes In every human Toil -wrung sigh. Let the Horse-tamer's bed be known By the rich mausoleum -shrine; Give the bold Quack his charnel-throne, — Their works were worthier far than thine. And let thy soul serenely sleep While pilgrims stand as I have stood, To worship at a nameless heap , And sadly, fondly, say " Poor Hood!" ELIZA. COOK. MR. SECRETARY WALPOLE.—This Honourable and Learned Gentleman seems destined to get into continual scrapes through putting a literal interpretation on the jocular observations of the Noble Premier. Last evening the dinner hour of the Ministerial White Bai banquet at Greenwich was fixed for seven o'clock, but, t we are informed by a morning contemporary, in consequence of Mr. Walpole having misunderstood, or rather taken literally, a casua l suggestio n of the Noble Premier, that, out of compliment to the Duke of Richmond, a Protectionist Ministry should dire at the Star and Garter, at Richmond, the party did not sit down until pas t e ight, at which time the Home Secretary, having discovered his error, arrived by special train. THE PaII4 CE SS GAUROMMA.—We understand th a t the Princess Guaromma, whose christening took place yester day in Buc kingham Palace, has, by an agreement between the ex- Raja of Coor g , on the one hand, and the Board a nd the Board of Directors of the East IndiaprCootemco_--f Control pany, o n the other, been placed under her Majesty's tion, to be educated in the principles of the Church of Eng land in this country, and that her Majesty h as aPpointed Mrs. Drummond to take charge of her. T SB BARQUE C I UCASIAN.—We have much plea sure i n publishing the following very flattering letter, which was addressed by a body of emigrants Chan dl e r, chief officer of the above vese. to Mr. am 9, 1851. Sir,—We, the undersigned IN ill i • " Port Adelaide. Feb. emigrants, con veyed from Plymouth to Adeloideunbdy the barque Caucasian, Captain Davidson, feel ourselves der an obligation to you, as chief officer, and wish to return you our sincere thanks for your kindness to us during these few litres: respect 'le 00er youl. the passage, and as a token of SPORTING NOTES. No. CCTV'. REMARKS ON THE RACING AT CARLISLE AND CHELMSFORD. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—A curious misstatement crept yesterday into my remarks on Chief Justice's running for the; Free Handicap, at Carlisle ; somehow or other the words "fast grey colt Puritan" were, by some extraordinary means, transmuted into "fast fill y Lady Agnes." .The error must have been palpabl e , h owever, to all racing men, as the Return Lists only gave four starters, and Lady Agnes's name did not figure amongst them. Dawson yesterday brought his much-talked-of Red Lion out, for the first time, to win the Cumberland Plate, which he did very cleverly, from Lindrick and several others. He is spoilt for th e Ebor Handicap, by the town talk having caused him to be weighed at sst 121 b, a very heavy appreciation of his merits in my opinion, He will probably be struck out for that race. His chance at Goodwood is not altogether bad, but at the weight I should prefer H eu . lakin. The Hylands Stakes at Chelmsford decided the merits of Pug Orfock; for, after one of the prettiest races of the seaaon, Vaultress, carrying Bst 101 b, just managed to defeat Pug Orrock and Defiance, which last two carried Bst 71b each, and ran a dead heat for second place by a head; that. bead, in my opinion, being Alfred Day's more then the filly's. It is very evident that through Vaultress having been prepared so early in the season she is already beginning to grow stale, and probably will get worse and worse every race she runs, spoiling likewise her chance of doing anything good next season. In the olden times two years old racing commenced with the Newmarket July Meeting, instead of in March, as is now the case. In this particular I think the Turfites of the past generation bad the start of us in wisdom, for no practical racing man can deny that it must damage the future chances of a race-hone by being brought out at two years old so early as March. I did intend publishing my comments on the July Meeting to-day, but for very potent reasons lam ob liged to defer the same until to-morrow.—l am, &e. July 1, 1852. THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF.

Three children and an adult died of syphilis. Five women sunk under puerperal fever, besides five others to whom other diseases incidental to childbearing were fatal. Two deaths from cholera occurred on the same day, the 20th June, and were registered as follows : At 1, Pelham-street, Mile-end New Town, the daughter of a bricklayer, aged 4 months, died of " cholera (2 days)." At 116, Wentworth-street, Whitechapel North, the daughter of a fur-dyer, aged 5 lish cholera (48 hours). years, died of °L Eng- Of 9 deaths ascribed to the organs of locomotion in the present return 1 was caused by arthritis, 5 by rheumatism, and 3 by undefined diseases of the joints. Of the 24 lives destroyed by sma ll-pox last week 20 were those of children, 4 those of adults. It is reported in three cases that the sufferers bad been previously vaccinated, and the ages of these were 7, 21, and 28 years. At 222, High -street, Shadwell, on 23 d June, the dau g ht er of a beer -shop k eeper , age d one year and 6 months, died of " small - pox, not vac cinated, n o medical attendant?'

Mr. Long, the Registrar of the South sub-district of Chelsea, registered 14 births but no deaths during the week. He draws attention to the unusually healthy state of the sub-district, in which, though it numbers upwards of twenty thousand inhabitants he has not been called to register a single death, not withatgading may pgtki of it are densely cr ow d e d by very poor persons, who live in localities without tho roughigre, and where the drainage and ventilation are had. Nine children were registered, who at various previous dates had been suffocated in bed. Mr. Simpson, Registar of the North sub-district of St. Giles-in-the-Fields, registered four deaths that had occurred in this manner at the respective ages of 3 weeks, 2 months, 4 months, and 9 months, on Ist, 2d, sth, and Bth of May. He refers to the fact that inquests were held on the same day on three out of the four cases.

On the eve of our going to press, we have received in formation of a fea r f u l cr i me which was perpetrated yes terday (Tuesday), at a lone cottage in the neighbour• hood of Sawley. The particulars which we have et present been ahle to obtain are necessarily very meagre; but, from what we can gather, the following is something like an outline of the facts : It appears that an elderly couple, of the name of Waters or Walters, lived in a solitary cottage upon Mr: Thompson's farm, in the lane between Sawley and Wilne, and about midway from either place. The husband, a labourer, was employed in hoeing turnips on the farm, and his wife—e woman of about 60 years of age—bad been, in the morning, to Draycott, shopping' Sac must, on her realm, have found the culprit in tlie cottage, for the flour and other articles which she ban been purchasing were found on the door-step outside; and the supposition is that she had found the mut': derer in the act of plundering the house, and that he must immediately have commenced the attack upon her. Some boys were in the neighbourhood at the time, and one of them, about 14 or 15 years old, hese_ ing a noise, we n t t o t h e cottage, where he saw a strang e man beating the poor old woman with a hatchet or, some other hea v y weapon. The man caught sight of him, and said he would stick him; and the boy imrenr diately ran off to Wilne Mill s t o give an alarm. A nun' .ber of people immediately hastened from thence, and on, their arrival th e y f oun d t h e w i ndows and furniture of the house had b een smashed, and the strane man ~ L still inside. A woman h a d also seen him beating ills poor creature, and had gone away alarmed ; 5 ° another boy, who had turned back from his a asocia,te; had seen hi m carry t h e b ody across the yard. P had, however, f oun d t i me to bury the body in 0 dung-heap, but a portion of one leg remained ups covered, which l e d to i ts discovery. The murderer 115 1 placed an in verte d trough over his head. He resist% for some tim e a ll i ngress into the cottage; but ; boy threw a s t one through one of the window-pane; which had b een b roken, and hit him over the eye' causing a s evere wound and knocking him down. " h was at once seizuel and placed i n sa f e custody. A body of the murdered fenaelo was quite cold when foun d. She appeared t o h ave been dreadfully beaten about the head and face. The murderer is an entire stranger;:, the neighbourhood, and he refuses to give his van e ' though he says he comes from Suffolk. He appes rg „ .° be about 25 years old, end five feet seven or eight inche s high. He had no coat, waistcoat, shoes, or stockif i bi' but he wore a checked shirt and trousers. The drea d ful occurrence seems to have taken place about half-1 05 one o'clock in the afternoon. A hatchet was afterwa rd; ,,, found in the yard. The floor of the house wag eiTa vered with blood, and some human hair was I ° ° " e a on the wall. He refused to say anything a bout t' t crime, but appeared to the bystanders either drunk insane. We understand that Ur. Whiston, coroner for the dig triet, received i n f ormat i on of the offence in the evclloo' and that he at once proceeded to Sawley. A CORSICAN HUSBAND.

A f ew years ago Count _, was in possession of the three things most d .. e o, to the heart of man in every clime under the s',„, namely, great consideration, a magnificent estr . , and a lovely wife. Of all these the estate alone mains ; and it is evidently to re-acquire the other t w o f that he has made the journey to Paris, in search if the prefecture in Corsica. The story is so peculi ns ti r h j e Corsican soil, that it is really worth relating. Count married in 1846, not only one of the rich es heiresses, but, moreover, the greatest beauty in "", : l island. For two years the "happy couple" seeroe to live in the enjoyment of every species ; bliss which ma t r i mony never fails to promise victims b e f ore surrender. The Count was all t eP c i derness and attention, the Countess all devotion confidence. N o thi ng occurred to mar their loProi ness save now and then some slight difference, g opinion, which would arise, always upon sal v e '? subjects though, between the Count and his young, brother, en officer of dragoons, who had taken tl i ` % from his regiment. s his quartrrs at the Chateau d'A-- during Isis,„ 9 o o disagreement was, however, alsvfl e ee and tenderness by t o the harmony of the menage etni t al scarcely be said to be disturbed by these ac eideo s . false notes, and everything went on as smoothly a s o e t jas C S811:1 o 'oog u tnhh n t et t h e d s sw,l tendency b e e t oo ftmoaubc2l:gcer a after the departure of the young dragoon had left ` if husband and wile to their solitude once more.

His a r n t'S tien, however, redoubled ; he never left the pst' e i is a side, and when at length, after every tria l olio been made to restore her to health , /j ot found herself laid on a sick bed, the Count stir" - , aiS from her pillow, administering every potion Wi t " or dS own hand, and by soothing discourse and kind v v t he exerting himself to smooth the dark passage t ° oll/ next world, w hi c h t h e doctor said must, in spite ° d the efforts of skill, b e ma d e ere long.
