MARKETS—This Day, ' MARK-LANE. The country markets, held on Saturday, were quiet for wheat. Previous quotations, however—owing to the limited supplies brought forward—were supported. For spring corn, there was a fair demand, and prices ruled firm. Flour changed hands to - a moderate extent at late rates. On the Continent the wheat trade is quiet, at about sta tionary prices. Spring corn, however, is in steady request at full currencies. At New York the trade for wheat and flour continues dull. Fresh up to our market, to-day, the arrivals of wheat, both from Essex and Kent, were small ; but the condition of the produce was good. Factors, in consequence of the shortness of the supply, as well as the prevailing unseason able weather, were very firm in their demands, and. held both red and white parcels at an advance in prices as com pared with Monday last of is. per quarter. A consider able proportion of the recent foreign arrivals having gone direct to the millers, buyers operated somewhat cautiously, yet the above improvement in the quotations was, in most instances, obtained. A portion of the supply, for which last Monday's prices were refused, was left unsold. A moderate, but far from extensive supply of foreign wheat was in the stands. The trade for all qualities was very firm. American and old Baltic wheats moved off steadily, and prices had taken an upward tendency. Other descriptions were in moderate request at full currencies. Floating cargoes - of grain were in fair demand, and prices ruled firm. The supply of barley on sale was small. The demand was by no means active ; noverthless, both grinding and distilling qualities changed hands at fully late rates. CURRENCY PER IMP.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE OF ASSAULTING AND ATTEMPT ING TO ROB A LICENSED VICTUALLER AND PUGILIST. — George Smith, a respectable looking man, described as a smith, was charged before Mr. Mansficd with assaulting James Dillon, licensed victualler and pugilist, of the White Horse, Baldwin's-gardens, Gray's-inn-lane, and attempting to steal his watch and chain. night, I was passi ng The prosecutor said—Shortly after 12 o'clock on Satur dayway home, when the p r i soner, w h o m I had seen sitting along Leicester-square on my against a lamp post, with two companions near him, pushed against me. I asked him whether there was not room for two persons, and what his game was. He said something I did not understand, and then struck me. A woman then ran up to the-man and said " Cheese it, cheese it—(leave off) —he's a fighting man. A mistake." Tho prisoner then knocked me down, and his friend laid Hold of my chain and watch. I shouted out " Police," and <the prisoner, who was kneeling on me, said "You --, if you call " Police I'll choke you." I got up and ran away, and the prisoner ran after me, and again knocked me down, and struck me with his fists. I then got up and ran after him, and gave him in charge. I had a light suit of clothes on at the time, and I've no doubt they took me for a foreigner. I was kicked in the loins, and was in bed all day yesterday. Police-constable 75 C—About half-past 1 on Sunday morning, hearing cries of " Murder," in Cranbourn-street, I went up and saw Dillon running, and a mob following him. I saw the prisoner knock Dillon down and fall' on him and strike him. I pulled the prisoner off and took him to the station. In reply to Mr. Mansfield the constable said the prose cutor and the prisoner were both sober. John Morris, hackney carriage attendant—l was on duty in Leicester-square, and saw Dillon knock a man down into the road, the man being intoxicated at the time. I told Dillon ho ought to be ashamed of himself, and Dillon then ran away, and then prisoner ran after him with a number of others, some of whom said, "Oh, he's a fighting man." The prisoner and Dillon then fought for about ten minutes, and on Dillon: falling on his back he said the prisoner wanted to rob him, but that was not the case. The constable then came up, and Dillon having got the worst of it, gave the prisoner in charge for attempting to rob him. The prisoner was drunk, till sobered by a fall Dillon gave him. -The prisoner—l had had a glass or two of beer and was leaning against a lamp-post, and Dillon coming along with a girl, knocked a man down. I asked why he did it, and through this a fight between them took place, and we both'fell occasionally atop of each other. The prosecutor afterwards gave me in charge for attempting to rob him. I am a working man, a smith, employed at 5, Jermyn-street, and do not wish to rob any one. What I have said is the truth. It all arose through Dillon knocking the man down without any reason. A person stepped forward and gave the prisoner 15 years good character. Mr. Mansfield—Has the prisoner ever been here before ? Barns (the gaoler)—No, sir. Mr. Mansfield—ls Dillon a pugilist, and has he been here before ? Barns—He is a pugilist, and has been committed from this court for three months for assaulting a female. Mr. Mansfield—The prisoner is discharged. The decision seemed to give satisfaction to most persons in attendance. SPORTING NOTES. The meeting at Ascot was decidedly the most fashionably attended I ever remember to have seen. The most im portant race on the first day was the meeting of Ely and Baragah in the Eleventh Triennial. Although odds Irere betted on the former, the latter made the pace so strong that Custance only managed to land his old favourite thi. l winner by a neck, after one of the most exciting races ever witnessed. It was over Ascot this day twelvemonths that Ely lowered Fille de l'Air's colours in the Prince of Wales's Stakes, on the strength of which performance, coupled with Blair Athol's knocking about in his unsuc cessful Paris trip, odds were betted on him against the Derby winner for the three-year-old boat of to day's Triennial, which resulted in the easy vic tory of the son of Stockwell and Blink Bonny. Union Jack, who was an immense "pet" for the Hunt Cup, was defeated easily by Gratitude, whose owner netted £lO,OOO by the victory. Mr. Merry also is a winner of about £5,000. The entry for the Gold Vase was much smaller than usual for her Majesty's gift, and though the field mustered a quartette only, consisting of Tartar, Breeze, Stanton, and Eltham, all shortcomings were made up for by one of the finest contests ever witnessed, which resulted in a dead heat between Breeze and the Derby outsider, Baron Rothschild thus "almost" repeating his Leopold surprise for the Vase in 1852. For the deciding heat, which was run after the last race on the card, odds were betted on Eltham, who ran the longest, and won almost as exciting a race as the previous one by three-quarters of a length. Though defeating one of the most popular patrons of the turf, Mr. Robinson was warmly congratulated on carrying one of the three valuable pieces of plate run for at the Royal meeting, which from being the gift of her Majesty, whatever its intrinsic value, is always cherished with feelings of loyalty and pride by all true sportsmen. Lord Stamford's Chibisa had some diflicnlty in defeating the highly tried Young Monarque in the New Stakes. Baron Rothschild did not pull out Janitor or he would have defeated the pair easily, even with his 51b penalty. Only six started for the Gold Cup, viz., Ely, General Peel, Victorious, Fille de l'Air, Zephyr, and Oppressor; Young Rapid and Baragah being reserved for the Alexandra Plate, Breadalbane for the Gratwicke and other valuable engage ments, and Union Jack for a "shorter cut." It was only this morning that Count Lagrange decided by telegraph (owing to legislative duties preventing his personal attend ance at Ascot,) to start Fille de l'Air for the Cup in prefer ence to the Alexandra Plate, and though it was known that the mare had been stopped in her work during the Bath week, she became a rattling favourite when the stable money went on, and left off " heads and tails" with General Peel, about whom as little as 5 to 4 was taken early in the morning, when 4 to 1 was offered " bar one," and 6 to 1 " bar two," nothing else but. Ely being backed for money besides the two "cracks.'' The mare looked much lighter than horses stopped in their work generally do, whilst Ely was full of bloom and muscle, and seemed none the worse for his Tuesday's gallop. The others were comparatively disregarded, nor did they take any prominent part in the race, with the ex ception of Oppressor, who was sent to make running for Fille de l'Air, and to see if he can stay, which he managed to do—in front, too—until reaching the last turn, up to which point the pace was so very moderate that the three " cracks " were all pulling. Ely then took up the running and they set ageing in earnest, but General Peel " never came anigh " until Zephyr gave way at the distance, when he took her place on the outside of Fille de l'Air, who was at Ely's quarters ; nor could she improve upon that posi tion, and suddenly giving way when it came to racing, left the other two to fight it out, which they did in earnest, Fordham waiting until within fifty yards of the chair when he made his effort, and tho General (after " wavering' for a stride or two, it struck us) catching Mr. Cartwright's horse on the post, made the fourth dead heat for this prize, two of which have occurred within three years—to wit, between Buckstone and Tim Whiffler in 1863 ; the pre vious ones having been between Brighton and Epsom— remarkable coincidence—in 1808, and the more memorable ono between Camarine and Rowton in 1832. Many thought Fordham waited a little too long, but ho never rode a better race in his life. Ely appeared to be the least dis tressed of the two, and recovered much sooner than his more gigantic opponent, who fairly sobbed for some minutes after his saddle was removed. They " ran it off" immediately after the last race, and Ely showed the General no quarter. The latter, though he appeared to pull over the leader all the way until the pinch came, showed the white feather (as he has done more than once before) the instant Fordham called upon him, and swerving half-way across the course, allowed Ely to canter in alone,"amidst tremendous cheering not only from the Ring, to whom ho did another "good turn," but the public at large, with whom the winner has ever been an especial favourite. Half a dozen starters were stripped for the Twelfth Ascot Triennial, and though the lot included two winners at the present meeting in Celerrima and Gardevisure, neither were backed for any amount, in the face of Broomielaw (who represented Mr. Chaplin instead of Breadalbane) and Farewell, each of whom had a strong body of partisans, who "lumped it on" regardless of consequences—Broomie law was backed in three hands alone for close upon £6,000 —that first one was favourite, and then the other, until at last there was not a pin to choose between them. Tho race itself was a much more one-sided affair, as Broomielaw jumped off at score, and coming through as hard as he could split, was never caught, and won by a length and a half, though the victory was anything but a bloodless one, as his well spurred sides afforded evidence of. The Alexandra Plate stood next for decision, and the whole of the 14 " coloured" put in an appearance, except Young Rapid, who, after being specially reserved for this event, broke down on Monday last. John Scott ran three, and on the strength of his close race with Ely on Tuesday, Baragah was made first favourite at 5 to 2, Fille do l'Air, who was backed for large sums, in spite of her indifferent performance in the Cup on the day before, stand ing "next to the poll," having, by some extraordinary oversight on the part of the framer of the conditions, no penalty for winning the Oaks, though the same was in flicted on the winner of the Derby, St. Leger, and Prince of Wales's Stakes. 8 to 1 was offered " bar two," and taken about Blackdown, next to whom Cathedral, Breeze, Planet, Armagnac, and Stafford, were most fancied of the remainder. Such a goodloooking filed of old horses has not been seen for many a day. The finish between Fille de l'Air and Strafford (who beat his more fancied stable companion in the race) was one of the finest and most ex citing of the week, and Lord Glasgow was " within an ace" of carrying off this rich prize, which would have been some recompense for his disappointment in the Cup with General Peel, as it was by the shortest of heads only that the French mire, who seldom runs two days alike, placed this valuable stake—worth £1,585 clear—to Count Lagrange's already lengthy list of winnings. Fille de l'Air's success created general surprise after her indiffe rent performance in the Cup only the day before, and is the more inexplicable from the fact of Baragah, who ran Ely to a head after a terrible race on Tuesday, finishing as far behind the French mare to-day as she was beaten by Ely on Thursday ! Tho meetings for this week are Liverpool and Hampton. The Liverpool Cup I shall expect to see BRADAMANTE or SUCCESS win, and the Middlesex Stakes Auditor or Moose. The distance being half a mile shorter than the Ascot Stakes ought to suit the latter. A. FRESH MAN. STOCKBRIDGE MEETING. THURSDAY, Juue 29. The Beaufort Handicap of 20 sovs each, with 200 added.

She is always clean, efficient, and ready to do her work to any port of the globe at a few hours' notice. We learn as a curious fact that this fine ship has the exclusive privilege in her Majesty's navy of having her iron bottom coated, with a well-tried Southampton composition, whilst the rest of her Majesty's iron fleet seem to be doomed to use the old Admiralty chemical anti-fooling composition, and they, as a rule on the lucis non lucendo principle, are "always foul as lawyers' wigs."—{Lord C. Paget's remark in the House of Com mons. The most extraordinary part of this strange anomaly is that, as we understand it, the Admiralty com position costs nearly twice as much as the other. A passenger named Dickenson, now lying ill at the Charing-cross Hotel, asserts that his life was saved by Mr. Dickens, who rescued him from being strangled. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. There was full average supply of foreign stock on sale in our market to-day, in, for the most part, fair condition. Sales progressed to-day, at late rates. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were again very moderate. Those from Lincoln shire and Northamptonshire were in good order. From Scotland the receipts were limited when compared with several previous weeks, whilst the supply from Ireland was trifling. On the whole, the demand for all breeds ruled firm, at an advance in the quotations compared with Monday last of 2d. per 81bs. The best Scots and crosses were disposed of at from ss. to ss. 2d. per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Cambridgeshire, we re ceived about 1,200 Scots and crosses, from other parts of England, 1,000 various breeds from Scotland, 470 Scots and crosses ; and, from Ireland, 80 oxen, &c. There was an increased supply of English sheep in the pens, and the mutton trade was quiet. Prime Downs and half-breeds realised Gs to 6s 4d per 81bs, most other crosses were rather lower. Lambs wero in fair supply and sluggish request, on rather easier terms. Prices ranged from Gs to 7s 8d per 81bs. There was a good demand for calves, at last Monday's currency, viz., from 4s 4d to 5s 4d per Blbs. The supply was only moderately.

THE EFFECTS OF JEALOUSY.--William Hodson, a tall, well• dressed man, about 30 years of age, was brought be fore Mr. Paget, charged with assaulting Caroline Gosling, a young and very pretty woman, who said she was em ployed on a sewing machine, and living in Sidney-square. The complainant, whose eye was blackened and forehead bruised, said a tender connexion formerly existed between her and the defendant. They lived together for six weeks, and she left him on Saturday week, and told him their parting must be for ever. Last`night she was leaving the Eagle Tavern in the Mile-end-road with a young gentle man whom she knew, when the prisoner came up to her, and asked her how she dared to form an acquaintance with any other man besides himself, and wanted her to leave the gentleman she was with. She refused to do so, and told him to go about his business. The prisoner then earnestly entreated her to renew the connection which formerly existed. She refused, and begged him to leave her. He did so, and she went to Taylor's Supper-rooms and partook of supper. On leaving there the prisoner ac costed her again, stopped her, and called her bad names'. She refused to have anything to do with him, and he then struck her on the eye. She gave him into custody of a police-constable, and he implored of her not to lock him up, and promised not to molest her or hit her again. She permitted his release, and soon afterwards he met her again and struck her on the forehead. She fell, and was raised by the bystanders. Mr Paget—What was doing at the Eagle last night ? Witness—Only the pleasure gardens open, sir. They were open till 11 at night. John Everidge, a tailor by trade," said he saw the prosecutrix ill-used. Re was totally unacquainted with her, but he did not like to seo a woman knocked about. The prisoner, in defence, said—l was tipsy at the time. I did not know what I did. John Klaiber, No. 312 K, said he found the young woman crying, and the prisoner running away. Her forehead was marked and her eye bruised; It was now blackened. He believed the complainant lived in a re spectable house in Sydney-square, Stepney, and was of comparatively good character. Mr. Paget said it was very unmanly to strike a woman, but he could quite understand this arose out of jealousy. The parties had lived together as man and wife, and the prisoner was jealous of the man who was with her. He would allow the prisoner to pay a fine. It was not more than half-a-dozen times he had allowed a man to pay a fine for striking a woman. He was hardly justified in doing it in this case. The prisoner had committed a cowardly and savage act. He fined him 405., and in default one month's imprisonment. - - ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.—His Royal Highness the Prince of 'Wales honoured the performances at the Royal Italian Opera with his presence on Friday even ing. The Prince was accompanied by their Royal High nesses the Duke and Duchess de Brabant, with whom his Royal Highness occupied the Queen's box. The house was well filled with fashionable company. THE HON. R. BETIIELL.—This person, who is the eldest son of the Lord Chancellor, and who has recently been proclaimed an outlaw, was .arrested by a sheriff's officer on Ascot race-course on Friday, at the suit of a London creditor. He was on the same evening lodged in Reading Gaol. LOCKING RAILWAY C ARRIAGES.—Lord St. Leonards has brought in a bill which is probably the shortest of the Session. It has no recital. It runs thus : —" Be it enacted by, &c. (the regular words of course), from and after the 18th of July next it shall not bo lawful to lock both tho doors of any railway carriage while any passenger is within it." - - THE GARDENER'S ROYAL BENEVOLENT INSTITU TION.—The twenty-second annual festival of this meritorious institution is fixed for Friday, July 7, at the ait j y , e o ff f er this Esci festivali of WoollenHall, is, that London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, on which occasion H th e4 the chair e w rp il e l e b L e fiTllheed peculiarity R. the gardeners of the nobility and gentry contribute the flowers to decorate the banquet hail, the exotics to grace the tables, and the fruit for the dessert. Apart from the benevolent object of the institution—viz., providing pen sions for aged and infirm gardeners and others connected with horticultural pursuits—the banquet is of a peculiarly interesting nature. The preceding festivals have all been productive of the greatest benefit to the institution, and it is not for a moment to be doubted that the approaching festival, presided over by such an open-handed and large hearted gentleman as the chairman, will fall below its pre decessors either in a pleasurable or pecuniary point of view. NEW SPIRITUAL PEER.—In consequence of the death of the Bishop of Chester, the Right Rev. Dr. Travers Jenne, recently consecrated to the Bishopric of Peterborough will become a spiritual peer, and the junior bishop, on whom will devolve the duty of acting as chaplain to the House of Lords. The new Bishop of Chester, whoever he may be, will remain without a seat in the House of Lords until a vacancy arises in a diocese other than Can terbury, York, London, Durham, or Winchester. The Courrier do Marseille relates that a grey hound belonging to a captain of artillery three days back kept pace with an express train in which was his master, between that city and the Roquefavour Station, a distance of 15 miles. A PIG WITH A WOODEN LEG.—A tailor in Con par-Anguscwho had a pig which got one of its legs broken, has replaced the injured limb with a wooden une. It is curious to see the animal hobbling about, but it is thriving as well as before the accident. --Edinburgh Courant. 2 li fi ; 1051 9 1 .: &# 1 } lOti 71 Ei 1241 3/ 9 621 3 1411 3 4 31 t 1361 5f 103 i 6 ng THIRD EDITION.

Lord BROUGHAM drew the attention of their lordships again to this subject, and urged on the Government the necessity of increased exertion to suppress the slave trade that was still carried on to a fearful extent. Earl RUSSELL, who was very indistinctly heard, was un derstood to say the papers on this subject had to bo corrected, but in a few days would be laid on the table of both Houses of Parliament. Tho French and English officers stationed at Cuba did all in their power to put down the slave trade, and the Government of the United States co-operated with them zealously. RAILWAY PASSENGERS BILL. . . Lord St. LEONARDS moved the second reading of this bill. Earl GRANVILLE said he thought this was a subject which Parliament should carefully consider before they proceeded to legislate on a matter of such importance as the safety of the public.

ROYAL COMMISSION. The SPEAKER was summoned by the Usher of the Black Rod to the House of Peers to hear the Royal Assent given to several bills. THE EAST INDIES. Lord STANLEY moved for a copy of the report upan the income and expenditure of British Burmah, by R. Temple, Esq., and Lieut. Col. H. Bruce, 1860 ; also for copy or extracts of all correspondence relating to pro jected railways in the colony of Natal, which has passed between the Lieutenant Governor of Natal and the Secre tary of State for the Colonies during the years 1863-64-65 ; and also for copies of correspondence between tho Go vernment of Madras and the agent of the Madras Irrigation Company, regarding the execution of works in progress under that company, and the system to be adopted in bring ing the works into operation and levying the charge for water from the cultivators.—Ordered. CANADA. Mr. CARDWELL laid on the table the papers connected with the position of affairs in Canada. It would bo recol lected that four members of the Legislature of Canada had been deputed by th e Governor-General of Canada to confer with her Majesty's Government. The Conference had taken place, and the Confederation of the North American Provinces, the I'm tification of Canada, the Reciprocity Treaty, and the North Western Boundary had been consi dered. The result of the deliberations had been satisfactory, and the whole of the papers he hoped would be in the hands of members to-morrow. EDUCATION. Mr. lIODGKINSON asked the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education what progress had been made in collecting and arranging the information required for the return ordered in the last ses sion of Parliament with reference to endowed grammar schools ; and when the return might be expected to be laid on the table of the house ? Mr. BRUCE said 700 schools had sent in the information, and he hoped the return would be in the hands of mem bers before the end of the session. DR. SUTFIERLAND'S APPOINTMENT. Sir S. NORTRCOTE asked the Under Secretary of State for War in what capacity Dr. Sutherland was em ployed by the War Department ; what pay and allowances he received ; whether he was paid by salary or by day when actually employed, and if by day pay for how many days in the year he was employed on an average ; from what vote of the estimates the payment was made; whether the arrangement had received the approval of the Treasury; and, whether there would be any objection to lay upon the table of the house a copy of the terms of his original appointment, and of any correspondenw between the War Office and the treasury on the subject. The Marquis of HARTINGTON said Dr. Sutherland was at the period of the Crimean war appointed by the Hon. Sydney Herbert a member of the sanitary commission to inquire into the condition of the army, and since that war had ceased the learned gentleman had been serving on the sanitary committee on the subject of hospitals and barracks. He received three guineas a day in remunera tion, and the vote under which his salary was taken was the sanitary vote in the arrangements. Mr. P. HERBERT asked whether there was no officer in the army qualified to perform Dr. Sutherland's duty, and whether he IV&S eligible for superannuation ? The Marquis of H.A.itTINGTO said he - could not say whether there was or not an officer in the army so qualified. Dr. Sutherland was not, he believed, eligible for superan nuation. DRAB PRIZE MONEY. Mr. H. LEWIS asked the' Secretary of State for India when the second issue of the Dhar pr z 3 money would take place ; and what was the cause of the delay of such issue ; and What was the tutal amount now available for distri bution ? Sir C. WOOD said ho had received no information on the subject from India. lie could not take upon himself to say that there were funds for another distribution. THE SAVINGS BANK FUND. Mr. HENLEY asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the sum of £7,703 4s. Od., stated in Parliamentary Pap.,”-, No. 325, of session 1865, to have been paid under the notholity of the Act 3 end 4 Will. 4, ,c. 14, out of the fund for the banks of savings, ought not to have been paid out of the fund upon which the establishment of the Com missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt was chargeable ; and whether the sums of £255 14s. 2d. and £297 10s., being the amounts charged iu columns 1 and 2 of the same Parliamentary paper, ought not, under the Act 26 and 27 Vic., c. 87, to have been charged upon the fund upon which the establishment of the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt was chargeable. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said the payments were all perfectly regular, and- charged to th proper fund. The right hon. gentleman could raise the question if he thought proper. THE CHARITY COMMISSION. _ _ Mr. 'MUNDY asked. the right hon. member for Cam: bridge University whether the consent of the Ecch,siastical Commissioners was previously obtained for the substitution of the Bishop of St. Asaph for the Bishop of Bangor, as President of the Hospital of Christ at Ruthin ; and the like consent for the substitution of the Bishop of Oxford for Bishop of Lincoln, as trustee of Lady Conyngham's charities, by order of the Charity Commission. Mr. WALPOLE said the matter did not affect any ques tion of patronage, and therefore it took place without a re ference to the Ecclesiastical Commission. • ENGLAND AND CANADA. _ Mr. DISRAELI asked whether the right hon. gentle , - man the Secretary for the Colonies would name any day for considering the matters relating to England and Canada. Mr. CARDWELL said it was not his intention to do se at present. The papers would be produced to-morrow and after they had been i n th e h an d s o f mem b ers it wou ld then be time enough -to take such a step. - LORD AMBERLEY. Mr. HENNESSY drew attention to a correspondence with respect to the position in which Viscount Aniberley travelled on board one of her Majesty's vessels. He was called an " attache." Now, if that was so, he should like to know whether he passed the civil service examination, the date at which he did so, and whether he received a certificate from the civil examiners. Mr. LYARD said it was a mistake of the officers of the ship to call Viscount Amberly an attache. He travelled as private secretary to Mr. Elliott, who had been appointed to a special mission, and there was nothing out of the usual course in so doing. The whole thing was a very simply matter, and a great deal more had been made of the matter than there was any occasion for. rLEFT SITTING.] HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. "LES HUGUENOTS." A crowded house, from the front orchestra stalls to the hindeimost seat of the amphitheatre, testified on Saturday evening to the attractive bill of fare put forth by Mr. Mapleson. This was what is called a "special" performance of Meyerbeer's capo d'opera, " Gli Ugonotti," in its Italian dress. Mdlle. Ilma de Murska, who has already won " golden opinions," sang, for the first time, the florid music of Mar garita di Valois ; a new basso, Herr Rokitanski, made his debut as Marcell° ; a new tenor, M. Joulain, impersonated Raul di Nangis ; and - 4he Counts St. Bris and Nevers were entrusted to Signor Foli (a first appear ance) and Mr. Santley. The heroine was once more—and where is there such a Valentina ? the gifted Tietjens; while the charming Trebelli, almost the only Italian in this Gallo-Ebraic opera, was once more the page Urban°. The performance was in every respect a treat to the auditors. The prominent novelty was Mdlle de Murska's Mar guerite de Valois, in which she not only delighted the spectators by her beauty and grace, but enrap tured them by her charming vocalisation of the florid music allotted to her in her one coquettish scene with Raul. M. Joulain sang his portion of the fine trio pre facing the interrupted duel with most pure and dramatic effect. His great scene with Valentina during the massacre, and his finale, were well and carefully sung. Herr Rokitanski has a fine bass voice and dra matic feeling. His denunciations and chaunts were impressive, and the rough Huguenot soldier lost nothing of power in his bands. The " piff-paff" and duet with Tietjens told excellently, and were applauded. Astley's Theatre. r►----- On Saturday evening, Mr. Henry Manley, who, it will be recollected, appeared with great success at the Strand Theatre under the late Mr. Allcroft's management, made his re-appearance at Astley's Theatre, in the character of Tom Tug, in the ever pleasing little ballad opera of " The Waterman." He sang the three celebrated songs, " Farewell, my trim-built wherry," " The Bay of Biscay," and " The jolly young waterman," with the greatest taste, and secured for himself in each a rapturous encore. We presume Mr. Manley's appearance on Saturday is merely the prelude to his re-appearance during the opera season at this house. His voice is one of the greatest sweetness, and it is ,perfectly under control, added to which he is a capital actor. English opera, it is acknowledged on all hands, has long wanted an infusion of " tenor blood " into it ; it appears to us unaccountable that Mr. Manley has remained in the provinces so long. MR. BENEDICT'S CONCERT.—The great concert of the season, which has now been given annually for nine-and-twenty years by the accomplished maestro, Mr. Benedict, is fixed for Wednesday next, at the St. James's Hall, Piccadilly. The prograume is one of the most extra ordinary we ever recollect to have seen, as it embraces none but the names of these artistes whose fame has been, or is, the theme of the highest praise in musical circles. The prima donna of both operas, Ilma de Murska, Tietjens, Patti, Lucca, Trebelli, Parepa, Lancia, Gardoni, Sims Reeves, Santley, Richardt, Pischek, Weiss, Arabella Goddard, &c., all appear, and Mr. Benedict himself will execute some of his own pianoforte compositions that have tended to in crease that immense reputation he has achieved, both as a conductor and composer. We invariably look forward to Mr. Benedict's concert with the greatest interest, be cause it is one of the remarkable events of the musical season. That the hall will be filled in every part by a brilliant audience is certain, and those who aro so fortunate as to become possessors of a ticket, which are even now at a high premium, may well congratulate them selves in having the means at hand of " assisting" one of the most extraordinary concerts ever given, not only in London, but the world. _ - - His Excellency the Austrian Ambassador and the Countess Apponyi will give a grand dinner on Tuesday, the 4th of next month, when his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge will honour the Count and Countess, with his company. The Countess Apponyi will have an assembly after dinner to meet the royal duke: The Countess of Derby will, in addition to her assembly to-morrow night, have assemblies on Wednesday, the 28th inst., and on Wednesday, the .sth of the ensuing month. It is said that General Count Flahault will be made a Marshal, and that General •Fleury has a good chance of being Minister of War. A LITERARY WORK FROM ANOTHER BONAPARTE is announced —being a collection of verses in praise of Corsica, from the pen of the Princess Mario Bonaparte. BARON FELIX BONNAIRE, the founder of the RevuF des Deux Jfondes, is announced recently deceased. LORD CLARENCE PAGET will preside at the anni versary dinner of the Royal Humane Society, fixed for Wednesday next. THE ROYAL ACADEMY EXHIBITION will open to the public in the evening, from half-past seven o'clock un til half-past ten o'clock, at the reduced price, on this even ing and afterwards. LITERARY NIGHT BIRDS ! The recent success of the Owl, says a weekly contemporary, has induced soma gentlemen, members of one of the principal clubs in Pall mall, to start a humorous rival, under the title of the Bat. Like its progenitor, it will give all sorts of private intelli gence from the most exclusive quarters, but at what periods, or how, it will take its flight, has not yet been disclosed. A GOOD. EXAMPLE.—The Duke of Wellington has addressed the following letter to his tenantry at Stratfieldsaye :—" Dear Sir,—.l think it right to explain clearly to you my feeling regarding the exercise of your vote. It is a trust imposed upon you for the advantage of the country, and the responsibility for the proper exercise of it rests on yourself alone. It is placed by the country in your hands, not in mine, and I beg you distinctly to understand that no one has any authority for stating that I wish to bias you in favour of any candidate.—l am yours, &c., WELLINGTON."
