Every thing he proposed would be dictated by the most sincere desire to do what was fair for the profession and encouraging to public enterprise. (Cheers.) The Right Hon. W. COWPER responded for the House of Commons. In response to the toast of " The Visitors" speeches were made by Prince Teck and the Right Hon. R. Lowe. The latter gentleman was received with marked enthusiasm, and was loudly applauded during and at the close of his remarks. The remaining toasts were spoken to by Earl Grey, Sir J.

The Exhibition Palace and Winter Garden were opened to the public on Monday for the purposes originally intended. The building had been let to the committee of the International Exhibition which was inaugurated by the Prince of Wales, acting for the Queen, on ' the 9th of May last and closed in October. During the winter the additional build ings, or annexes, rendered necessary for the Exhi bition, were taken down, and.the unfinished designs of Mr. A. G. Jones, the architect, have been com pleted. A gallery has been erected in the great music -hall, and the promenade called the Winter Garden has been stocked with shrubs and flowers in great variety, and so arranged as to produce a very beautiful effect. The severity of the weather during spring has greatly retarded the growth of the trees in the grounds, the bare appearance of which was a little disappointing. TEETH. AND PAINLESS DENTISTRY.- The fear of pain and dread of operation inherent to all deter very many to whom ARTIFICIAL TEETH are of vital importance from availing themselves of the services of a dentist. In a practice founded in 1830, and now ex, ending over greater part of the kingdom, an experience unequalled has been obtained, enabling us to offer even the most sensi tive sufferer a i.ystem of dentistry perfect in its absolute freedom from pain, a specialite ertaining only to our prac tice, and for which her Majesty has granted her royal letters patent. This system embraces the non-interference with all stumps, however decayed, the supporting instead of extrac tion of loose teeth until they become firm and useful in mas tication, and the utter absence of all and every operation, so that the most nervous person can be supplied without fear of pain or inconvenience. These teeth are cheaper, more dur able, natural, and comfortable than any yet produced. , warranted Consultation free. Teeth fro m 58.

After a trial which lasted 21 days, a jury selected by consent of both parties, composed of most respectable gentle men, brought in a verdict breaking the will of the late Sir Edward Fitzgerald. Yet Dr. Ball, Q.C., on the first day of term, moved for a new trial, on the grounds of misdirection by the learned Judge, and that the verdict was against the weight of evi dence. The case was postponed till yesterday, in order that it might be argued by Mr. Butt, Q.C., but that gentleman said that he had urged every thing he properly could at the late trial, and being of opinion that he would have no chance of chang ing his lordship's mihd, he thought the better thing for all parties would be to let the case go to an ap pellant tribunal. Judge Keatinge said that he en tirely approved the verdict, and would have given the same himself had he been on the jury. The mo tion for the new trial being abandoned, lie made no rule. Dr. Ball, Q.C., moved for liberty to appeal, which the Court refused, observing that the appli cation could be renewed before a Court of Appeal. The death is announced of Mr. Denis Canny, of Clonmoney, county Clare, from injuries received by repeated falls from a horse which he rode at Scariff races, on Saturday last, in one of the steeplechases there. Mr. Canny, though deaf and dumb, was re puted one of the first horsemen in Ireland, and cele brated for his extraordinary courage in steeplechasing. Mr. John Brady, a builder, of 47 and 48, Cam den-street, went to the Detective-office yesterday morning, and made the extraordinary request that his premises might be searched, as, for aught he knew, there might be arms concealed there. This prudent step may be accounted for by the fact that his brother, who worked in the yard, had been arrested last week, and his own men had since found a quantity of cartridges. Mr. Superintendent Ryan accordingly sent some officers to the place, and they found in a sawpit a wooden box, within which was a tin box containing 216 rifle bullets and 94 revolver bullets. in a carpenter's shop over the pit, between the floor andthewall, they made the more important discovery of nine rifles, four bayonets, two sword bayonets, a pikehead, and an old sword. Mr. Ryan has expressed his conviction that the arms and ammu nition were placed there without the knowledge of the owner of ,the premises, and that he never approved the business for which the arms were intended.

The prisoner has been fully committed under the Suspension Act. Brophy, the man who was shot some time ago in Thomas-street, having recovered from the effects of his wounds and left the hospital, the two men, Webber and Graham, who had been in custody on account of their connexion with that affair, were let out yester day on bail, to appear when called on.

The memorial was signed by nearly all the Nenagh Town Commissioners and by several Roman Catholic clergymen." A remarkable libel case came before the Court of Common Pleas yesterday—Kane v. Mulvany. The action was brought by the plaintiff, Mr. R. D. Sane, solicitor, against the defendant, an architect and engineer. The libel was alleged to be con tained in certain publications, stated to have been circulated by the defendant, of observations made by Mr. Rodwell, Q.C., in a speech before a com mittee of the House of Lords, to whom the Dublin Trunk Connecting Railway Bill was referred ; and also in a petition presented to the hoase praying for a recommittal of the bill. The summons and plaint sent forth in detail a document pur.. porting to be a report of the speech of Mr. Rodwell, who said that while the bill was pending in Parliament, and was opposed by. the corporation of Dublin, Mr. Kane intimated that he could give important evidence, favourable to the promoters, and that he was accordingly examined, and that the testimony so elicited was of such a cha racter as to procure the immediate rejection of the bill. Mr. Rodwell charged Mr. Kane with having " sold" the promoters, and with having acted in collusion with the Parliamentary agent for the cor poration, to whom he had furnished the particulars necessary for his cross-examination in amanner to be hostile to the bill. Some of the promoters after wards presented a petition for the recommittal of the bill, in which they stated that Mr. Kane's evi dence, which they all alleged had been given by him to the Parliamentary agent for the Corporation, was really evidence in opposition to the bill, and not fa vourable to it, as he had represented to the pro moters that he would give. Two of the paragraphs in the summons and plaint gave innuendoes to those statements, averring them to charge that Mr. Kane acted corruptly and treacherously in the matter of his evidence. The defendant pleaded th at the charges were made bona fide and without malice ; that when he made them he believed them to be true ; and that they wore justifiable comments on the conduct of a public man.

The case was argued by Messrs. F erguson, Q.C., and Walter Boyd for the plaintiff, and Messrs. Heron, Q.C., and Monahan for the de fendant. Chief Justice Monahan delivered judg ment, disallowing the demurrer. His lordship held that Mr. 'Cane having appeared as a witness before a Parliamentary tribunal placed himself in the posi tion of having his acts and conduct commented upon, and that the -privilege of such comment was not exclusive to newspaper editors, but was enjoyed equally by every one of her Majesty's subjects. The objection to the defences in point of form was bad, as was decided in the case of "Travers v. Potts," where the truth of the statement of facts and com ment thereupon were pleaded together.

Legation of rsl on —I ha s t en to remit Mr. Secretary of State—Sir, herewith to your Excellency a copy of a d es p a t c h which I, at the moment, received from his Excel lency, Mr. Drouyn de I'Huys, and which answers the despatch you were pleased to address to me relative to Mexican affairs, on the 12th of February last. Accept, Mr. Secretary of State, the .assur ances of my high consideration. (Signed) MONTHOLON. To the Hon. William H. Seward. M. DROUYN DE L'HUYS TO THE MARQUIS DE MONTROLON. (Translation.) Paris, April 5, 1866. To Marquis de Montholon—Sir,—l have read with all the attention - which it deserves the answer of the Secretary of State to my despatch of the 9th of January last. The scrupulous care with which Mr. Seward has pleased to analyse that despatch, and the extended considerations upon which he has entered to define in regard to the expose which I have made of the conduct of France in the affairs of Mexico, the doctrines which are the basis of the international policy of the United States, bear wit ness in our eyes of the interest which the Cabinet of Washington attaches to putting aside all misap prehension. We find therein the evidence of its desire to cause the sentiments of amity which the traditions of a long alliance have cemented between our two coun tries to prevail over the accidental divergences often inevitable in the movement of affairs and relations of Governments. It is in this disposition that we have appreciated the communication which the Secretary of State has addressed to you on the Ist of January last. I will not follow Mr. Seward in the developments he has given to the exposition of the principles which direct the policy of the American Union. It does not appear to me opportune or profitable to prolong, on points of doctrine or of history, a discussion where we may differ in opinion from the Government of the United States without danger to the interests of the two countries. I think it better to serve those interests by abstaining from discussing assertions in my opinion very contactible, in order to take action on assurances which may contribute to facilitate our understanding. We never hesitate to offer to our friends the explana tions they ask from us, and we hasten to give to the Cabinet of Washington all those which may en lighten on the purpose we are pursuing in Mexico, and on the loyalty of our intentions. We have said to it at the same time that the cer tainty that we should acquiesce in its resolution to observe, in regard to that country after our depar ture, a policy of non-intervention, would hasten the moment when it would be possible for us, without compromising the interests which led us there, to withdraw our troops and put an end to an occupa tion the duration of which we are seriously desirous to abridge. In his despatch of the 12th of February last, Mr. Seward calls to mind on his part that the Govern ment of the United States has conformed, during the whole course of its history, to the rule of conduct which it received from Washington, by practising invariably the principle of non-intervention, and adds " that nothing justifies the apprehension that it should show itself unfaithful in what may concern Mexico." We receive this assurance with entire confidence. We find therein a sufficient guarantee not any longer to delay the adoption of measures intended to prepare for the return of our army. The Em peror has decided that the French troops shall evacuate Mexico in three detachments, the first being intended to depart in the month of November, 1866 ; the second in March, 1867 ; and the third in the month of November of the same year. You will please to communicate this decision of• ficially to the Secretary of State. Receive, Marquis, the assurance of my high con sideration. (Signed) DROUYN DE L'Hurs.

The annual dinner of this society was held last evening at Willis's Rooms. There were from 200 to 260 gentlemen present, and the banquet was of an unusually elegant description. The flowers, the fruits, the wines, and the decorations were the best the Messrs. Willis could supply, and the brilliant appearance of the hall was considerably heightened by a large collection of magnificent plate, including the gold Demidoff service valued at £20,000, which was lent to the Government to adorn the naval fetes at Portsmouth last year. These valuable works of art were lent for the occasion by Messrs. Hancock, of New Bond-street. Some instrumental music was performed during dinner under the direction of Mr. Coote. Mr. John Fowler, the president of the insti tution, was in the chair, and amongst the guests were the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred (accompa nied by Earl Spencer and Major Teesdale), Prince Teck, the Duke of Buccleuch, Lord Redesdale, the Duke of Sutherland, the Marquis of Salisbury, Lord Stanley, Lord Caithness, Lord Colville, Gen.

Russell, Mr. Hawksley, Dr. W. Fair bairn, and about 200 members of the profession. The usual loyal toasts were given by the PIiESI DENT. In proposing the " Health of the Prince and Princess of Wales and the rest of the Royal Family," he referred to the fact that the Prince of Wales was an hon. member of the institution. The Prince of WALES, in responding, said :—Un der any circumstances it would have afforded me sincere pleasure to have been present here this even ing at a meeting of so distinguished a body as the civil engineers of Great Britain, but it is still more agreeable to me to find myself here in the position of one of your honorary members. (Hear.) I thank you for the manner in which you have mentioned my name, and for considering me as one of your selves. I feel proud to think that my lamented father was also an honorary member of this distin guished institution. (Cheers.) It is, indeed, a diffi cult task for me to address so eminent a body, and more especially to speak in terms of eulogy. Yet I cannot avoid adverting to the names of two of your most distinguished men. I allude to Mr. Brunel and Mr. Stephenson—(cheers)—whose names are not obliterated from our memories, while the important works they have bestowed upon this country can never be forgotten. (Cheers.) We cannot but be proud of the works which are completed, or are in course of completion, in this country. Let us look for a moment at them. It is useless, perhaps, for me to remind you—although it is right I should do so on this particular occasion—of the vast exten sion of our docks all over the country ; of the great improvements in our electric telegraph, in our steam ships, and, in fact, in our general steam navigation. Let us look at home—by which, I mean, let us look at this metropolis. (Hear.) No one can walk over Westminster-bridge without being struck with those magnificent quays on either side commonly called the Thames Embankment, which we must admit is one of the most important works of our day. (Hear, hear.) Then I must also refer to the Metro politan Underground Railway —works which we owe to the exertions of your distinguished Pre sident, and which, though not entirely corn pleted, has been in use for nearly three years, and which has to a considerable extent diminished some of the traffic in our streets. (Cheers.) Look also to our colonies, and to the many important works which our engineers have there constructed. There is one in which I am especially interested, namely, the celebrated bridge built over the St. Lawrence, called the Victoria, going to Montreal, and erected by Mr. Stephenson, one of your most renowned en gineers. `(Cheers.) I had the honour of inaugurat ing that bridge in the name of her Majesty the Queen. (Cheers.) I have to be thankful in many ways to you all, and to Mr. Stephenson, for having built such a bridge, for probably I should never have had the opportunity of visiting our northern coionies and a portion of the United States, if I had not had the invitation to inaugurate that celebrated bridge. His Royal Highness, in conclusion, re peated his thanks for the compliment paid to him as an honorary member, and to the Princess of Wales. (Loud cheers.) The PRESIDENT then gave the toast of " The Navy, Army, and Volunteers." Prince ALFRED, in responding for the navy, said —I need scarcely tell you with w h at pleasure I rise to respond to this toast, nor how proud I feel to hear my name associated with the royal navy. (Cheers.) Within the last few years the navy has become more connected with civil engineers than it ever was before. All the late r i mprovements in the*, navy we owe to civil engineers. There is only one thing they have not succeeded in doing—they do not make us look more beautiful than they did be fore. (Laughter.) In fact we have rather deterio , rated in the matter of appearance.

You cannot, while practising the courtesy and re spect which are due to the Austrian Government, be either too earnest or too emphatic in the protest you have been directed to make. In performing this duty you may be assisted by information of the actual state of the question concerning French in tervention in Mexico at the present moment. With this view I give you, confidentially, a copy of my note, addressed to M. Montholon on the 12th clay of February last. As yet no reply has been received to this note, nor have its contents become public. • You will, th ere f ore , see th e propr i e ty of being discreet in such use of it as you may find it neces sary to make. After reading that paper you will be justified fir saying that the American Govern ment and people would not be likely to be pleased with seeing Austria, at this juncture, assume the character of a protector to the foreign military Power which, claiming the power of an empire, is attempted to be set up upon the supposed subverted foundations of the Republic of Mexico.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, • WILLIAM H. SEWARD. J. Lothrop Motley, Esq., &c., &c., Vienna. MR. SEWARD TO MR. MOTLEY. (No. 173.) Washington, April 6, 1866. - • Sir,—An informal note has just been received from Mr. Bigelow, the United States Minister at Paris. In this note Mr. Bigelow writes in substance -as follow s :—" The Moniteur of the 21st of March announces that a military convention was signed at Vienn a on the 15th, between the Austrian Govern ment and the representative of Maximilian, sup- PwihelnichenhtaadYbet:n ro a con c e o l n u v d e e n d ti b o e n tw o e f en t t h h e e s s a a m m e e p n a a r t ti ur es e . The purport of this engagement, says the Moniteur, is to insure the enrolments necessary to keep full the Austrian corps in Mexico." Mr. Bigelow further writes as follows:—" I have seen it stated in another journal that a line of ' Again, is to be started from Tri es t e to Vera Cruz, to ply Again,, m regularlyr.

Paris Constitutionnel, of the 21st o ie f n March h: Th : learn from the Frendenblat t en listment for Mexico will begin immediately : that the funds have been received from Paris two months since." Your despatches, of dates almost as late as that of Mr. Bigelow's note, are silent upon the rumours which he brings to the notice of the Government. It is possible that more authentic information which you may possess concerning the disposition and proceedings of the Austrian Government may en able you to treat the matters mentioned by Mr. Bigelow with indifference. Looking at the matter, however, from one point of observation, the rumours referred to are deemed sufficient to entitle us to ask a friendly and just exposition of the Imperial Royal Government of the relations which it proposes to assume or maintain henceforth in regard to Mexico. You are expected, therefore, to execute the instruc tions which have heretofore been sent to you to that effect, and it is thought proper that you should state that in the event of hostilities being carried on here after inMexico byAustriansubjects, under the com mand or with the sanction of the Government of Vienna, the , United States will feel themselves at liberty to regard these hostilities as constit u ti ng a state of war by Austria against the Rep u bli c o f Mexico, and in regard to such war waged at this time, and under existing circumstances, the Uxited States could not engage to remain as silent or neutral spectators. The President may desire to call the attention of Congress to this interesting subject. You will see the importance, therefore, of obtaining the informa tion, which is desired as early as maybe practicable, consistently with the courtesies due to Austria as a friendly Government. Should you, however, find important reasons, now unknown to us for deferring the execution of this instruction, you will be at liberty to exercise your discretion, and report the reasons to us.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, WILLIA3I IL SEWARD. To J. Lothrop Motley, Esq., Vienna. MR. SEWARD TO MR. MOTLEY. Department of State, Washington, Aprill6, 1866. have had the honour to receive your de vatcl} of the 27th of March (No. 155), which brings the-important announcement that a treaty, called a " military supplementary convention," was ratified on the 15th of that month between the Emperor of Austria and the Prince Maximilian, who claims to be an Emperor in Mexico. You inform me that it is expected that about 1,000 volunteers will be shipped, under this treaty, from Trieste to Vera Cruz very soon, and that at least as many more will be shipped in the autumn. I have heretofore given you the President's in structions to as l .-. for explanations, and conditionally to inform the Government of Austria that the de spatch of military expeditions by Austria, under such an arrangement as the one which seems now to have been consummated, will be regarded with serious concern by the United States. The subject has now been farther considered in connection with the official information thus recently received. The time seems to have arrived when the attitude of this Government in relation to Mexican affairs should be once again frankly and distinctly made known to the Emperor of Austria and all other Powers whom it may directly concern.
