Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nigl4s' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, aro given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., rece ives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, rofusedadmittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To m eet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur "pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor ramifies in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf. SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBEJIT D.D., No. 22, riutibury-circus, E.O. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, J LINE 25, 1866.

STAMPED sd. back a 80 guinea lever minus the how, and darted off like a flash of lightning. With the two simple drawbacks only, viz., the presence of betting howlers and pickpockets, the meeting carried out in every , way the genuine English holiday of a former gene ration. It came off rather later in the season than usual on account of the Marquis, who possesses a very valuable herd of cattle, fearing that the plague might accompany the large number of homes likely to be gathered. Competent persons, however, assured him there was no danger, and he consented ; but rumour says it will be the last, and that the Yeomanry will not again wind up their eight days' annual drill with their long-accustomed sports. Let us hope such report to be unfounded, and suggest that future meetings should take place on the Thursday in Hampton week, which will effectually get rid of all the London roughs, and enable the lovers of genuine home-bred, quiet racing to enjoy comparatively unmolested an easy journey to one of the most magnificent spots, teeming with some of the richest landscape scenery to be met with near the metropolis.

J. C. Beaumont, and- Augusta, paddle steamer, 8 guns, Capt. Alexander, Murray, arrived and anchored at Spithead on Saturday morning from Queenstown, en route to the Baltic. The customary interchange of salutes followed be tween the American ships and her Majesty's ship Victory, the flagship of the Naval Commander-in- Chief at Portsmouth and of the south-west district, Vice-Admiral Sir T. Pasley, K.C.8., and also with the saluting battery on the King's bastion of Ports mouth town fortifications. Capts. Beaumont and Murray soon afterwards landed from their ships at Portsmouth dockyard, and, accompanied by Mr. James Garratt, the United States Consul at Ports mouth, paid official visits to Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Pasley at the Admiralty -house in the dock yard ; to Lieut.-Gen. Sir George Buller, K.C.8., at the Garrison Government-house, and to Rear •Ad miral Superintendent G. G. Wellesley, at his official residence in the dockyard. Admirals Sir Thomas Pasley and Wellesley, accompanied by their suites and a large party of naval and military officers, during the afternoon embarked on board the steam yacht Fire Queen, and proceeded to Spithead, where they paid a lengthened private visit to the Mian tonomah and Augusta. The turret ship has been very much admired on account of her novel con struction and the general excellence of her internal arrangements. Great numbers of people from the mainland and the Isle of Wight visited the ships on Saturday and yesterday. The stay of the two ships at Portsmouth is expected to extend over a week or ten days. The Hon. G. V. Fox, Assistant-Secretary of the United States' Navy, was expected to arrive at Portsmouth from London this morning. The Helicon, paddlewheel despatch vessel, Com mander Morgan Singer, is ordered to proceed from Portsmouth to Hamburg and embark his Royal Highness Prince Christian, for conveyance to Eng land. The armour-plated ship Caledonia, 30, Capt. the Hon. F. A. C. Foley, at Devonport, is expected to leave early next month. The armour-plated ship Lord Clyde, 24, was re moved on Friday from Hamoaze into Plymouth Sound, where she shipped her powder on Saturday. The War Department steam storeship Lord Pan mure sailed on Saturday from Woolwich arsenal, laden with powder and a full cargo of stores for Bull's point and Devonport. The Raglan took her departure with a similar cargo for Portsmouth, and the Bomarsund laden with naval guns for Chat ham. The Sir George Seymour completed loading with building materials, and sailed for Bermuda. The Celestial Queen went alongside the red buoy off Woolwich arsenal on Saturday, and took in pow der and other stores for Colombo. The Venus, laden with powder, &c:, sailed for Sierra Leone ; the Red Riding Hood, with shells, &c., sailed for Hong Kong ; and the Star of Hope, with building materials, left for the Mauritius. The steam screw ship W. Corry, which has been taking in the shore end of the Atlantic cable at llenley's manufactory at Woolwich, on Saturday completed her ship ment, and is ready to join the Great Eastern at Sheerness. The orders issued for the supply of batteries and equipments for St. John, New Brunswick, and various other places are partially completed at Woolwich. An immense storage, for magazine use, of metal powder cases is in readiness for shipment, as well as gun-carriages, waggons, &c., on the old principle, and 20 7-inch 6k-ton guns, and 12 9-inch 12-ton guns, with cast-iron carriages and platforms complete, on the new method for Halifax, for trans porting over the sands and soft roads, with case mate and dwarf platforms complete, are now ready at Woolwich for embarkation. Mr. G. J. S. Lefevre, M.P., Junior Lord of the Admiralty, paid his first official visit to Chatham dockyard on Saturday, accompanied by Mr. H. W. R. Walker, auditor of dockyard accounts, and Mr. W. Robinson, valuer and inspector of dockyard work, and was engaged for a considerable portion of the day in the inspection and examination of the system of dockyard ac c ounts, diaries, &c., at that establishment, in which he was assisted by the offi cers of the dockyard. The depot companies of the Ist and 2d battalions of the 4th (King's Own Royals) Regiment, after being inspected on the general parade-ground, Chatham, by Major-Gen. Sir R. Walpole, K.C.8., left that garrison on Saturday morning, and pro ceeded by special train to Parkhurst, where they join the Depot Battalion at that station. The de pot of the Ist battalion of the 4th numbered three officers, seven sergeants, four drummers, and 117 rank and file, with 15 women and children, together with the following officers, viz. :—Capt. G. 11. ICittoe, Lieut. M. F. Thrupp, and Ensign F. C. Turner. A portion of the depot of the Ist batta lion of the 4th, under the command of Lieut. C. R. Hammond, remained at Chatham, for the purpose of embarking with the reinforcements about being despatched to India. The depot companies of the 2d battalion of the 4th King's Own numbered seven sergeants, one drummer, and 98 men, with 39 women and children, and the following officers— viz., Captain C. Eccles, Capt H. J. Bower, Lieut. W. T. Freeman, Lieut. It. A. Knox, and Ensign T. Blackwood. Orders have been received at Chatham for bar rack accommodation to be provided at that garrison for six additional infantry depots, which will shortly arrive at that station. These depots are the 2d bat talion Ist Royals, and the Ist battalion 2d Royals, from Cork; the Ist battalion Bth Regt., from Dub lin ; the 2d battalion of the Bth, and the 2d batta lion of the 14th Rcgts., from Newry ; and the 30th Regt. from Parkhurst. Eight depots have received orders to be held in readiness to proceed from Chatham, in addition to those who have recently left—viz., the Ist and 2d battalions of the 12th Regt. and 77th Regt., to Gosport ; Ist and 2d battalions of the 19th Regt., to Sheffield ; Ist and 2d battalions of the 20th Regt., and the 102 d Royal Madras Fusileers, to Shorncliffe, at which latter station as well as Sheffield it is intended to form new depot battalions on the removal of the whole of the depots from Ireland. The regimental returns of the target practice at Aldershot, just issued, show the figure of merit of battalions and companies, the marksmen per cent., and the number of points obtained by the best shots in the division at that station to be as fol lows :-52d Regiment—figure of merit—battalion, 101.54 ; best company, 122.12 ; marksmen per cent., 6.27. 66th Regiment—fi gure o f merit, bat talion, 984.2 ; best company, 97.08 ; m arksmen per Ar)tt , 1 ' • ' . 4;, %; +"' cent., 8.49.

An order has been received at Colchester intimat ing that the depot of the Ist (King's) Dragoon Guards will arrive at Colchester about . the 20th of next month from Maidstone. The depot will com prise Capts. Gunter and Grews ; Lieuts. Gandy, Childs, and Benthall ; Cornets Lloyd and Sadlier, and 152 non-commissioned officers and men. Be tween the arrival of the Ist Dragoons and the de parture of the 11th Hussars the depot of the former will be temporarily quartered in camp. The 48th (Northamptonshire) ttegimeut, under the command of Col. J. G. R. Aplin, and consist ing of 33 officers, 728 men, 7 horses, 78 women, and 98 children, arrived at Aldershott Camp on Thursday afternoon, from Shorncliffe. The regi ment is temporarily stationed in the west block Permanent Barracks. The 69th Regiment, under the command of Col. D. E. Mackirdy, now stationed at Aldershott, is under orders to proceed to Portsmouth on Wednes day, there to embark for the Channel Islands. A divisional field-day was to have taken place at Aldershott on Friday, but the order was counter manded on Thursday evening. During the past week, however, all the arms of the service have been separately exercised. It is expected that the sum mer strength of the division will shortly be aug mented by the Royal Horse Guards (Blue) from Windsor, and the Ist battalion Grenadier Guards from London. We are requested to mention that her Majesty's ship Prince Consort is now under the command of Capt. E. A. Inglefield, the late commander (Capt. Willes) having retired in April last. The following appointments were made . on Satur day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. A. R. Kerr, to the Griffon; William E. Gill, assist.-clerk, to the Im pregnable ; Robert M. Pearson, assist.-clerk, addi tional, to the Royal George ; Samuel G. Strong, assist.-clerk, to the Griffon ; Robert Donaldson, assist.-clerk, to the St. Vincent ; Walter J. A. Preston, John S. King, and James D. Drysdale, assist-clerks, to the Fisgard, for service in Ac countant-General's department. Finally, the freedom of action which each indepen dent State ought to reserve toitself has its limits I with respect to the g e n e r al solidarity whichis too much misunderstood in these days. Isolated, a State may be drawn further than is required for the protection of its own interests. It is well that the necessity for concerted action should bring its checks and its qualifications to bear upon this egotism, which is only truly wise when it is well understood. Egotism well understood consists pre cisely in the sentiment of general solidarity which is now the law of humanity. Upon all these grounds we strongly desire to see an understanding between the neutral Powers, and we are convinced that whenever such an understanding is probable the concurrence of Russia will not be wanting." Racing as of Old. The f: 'acetious correspondent of the Racing Times writes on the above subject as follows : About eighteen miles from London, by the Great Northern Railway, on the declivity of a steep hill, stands the small ancient town of Hatfield ; it con sists of one principal street, and is a quaint, old fashioned place, full of historical remains. Of the venerable palace built by a former bishop of Ely the gateway and west front alone remain. It was once possessed by that celebrated sportsman Henry VIII., and from it Edward VI. and Elizabeth were conducted to London to take possession of the throne after the deaths of their respective pre decessors. Queen Elizabeth, during the reign of Mary, was confined here—a fact which I was relating to a respectable country lady while pass- _ - ing under the arch, but which she did not be lieve of that celebrated sovereign, and corrected me by saying that her Majesty was kept in confine ment, a distinction, as it appeared to me, without a difference. Some more experienced votaries of the turf will recollect the days when horses ran compa ratively on their merits; carried heavy weights, went long distances, and seldom troubled a handicapper. The modern system has nearly swept such places from the scene, and it is not generally known that under a score of miles from town there still exists a meeting of the old sort. It was held on Thursday last in Hatfield Park, by permission of the Marquis of Salisbury, and, according to the true and correct card, is called the "South Harts Yeomanry Races." The day is anxiously looked forward to by largo numbers of country folk from the surrounding towns and villages, and is a genuine rural car nival, intruded upon, however, by a sprinkling of scamps, who, despite ordinary care, appear to be necessary evils. On quitting the railway station to the right, and in the public road, four sharpers were placed in a row, each with three cards, on the edge of the pave ment, and the several schools attached to the ope rators comprised imitation yokels, horse coopers, a clerical-looking gentleman, and a large boy, of speculative propensities, made up as a sailor, who, disregarding the entreaties of an imitation widow representing his mother, would insist upon vesting his " prize money" in the certain game before him, and, strange as it may appear, he generally selected the right card, and boastingly said he would " clean out" the lot. The affair was conducted in such a genuine style that it was difficult to ascer- tain during the five minutes or so that I remained there whether any member of my wide- spread family was caught, but I should hope not. Ascending the steep hill in question were numbers of equestrians and pedestrians, many of the true country type, and lads and lasses with rude health depicted on their countenances, each with cash in pocket, hoarded up for the occasion, mixed with the fashionables and others who arrived by rail and road. Entering the ancient gateway, a short walk brought us in front of the house, one of the finest existing specimens of English domestic architecture of the reign of James [., with its splendid terraces, rosaries, maze, and lake ; and whilst traversing the richly wooded demesne I envied its owner his re tirement, and fully appreciated the condescension evinced by the noble Marquis in welcoming and harbouring for one day in the year so strangely mixed an assemblage. There appeared but one general entrance to the park and its paths, and the course was well attended by county police, who were considerably more ornamental than use- 'ul. About half a dozen London detectives would have prevented a horde of pickpockets intruding in the otherwise quiet scene, which the countymen did not, and so several purses and watches changed pockets without the owners' consent. No fees were charged for vehicles. The grand stand was a small wooden erection capable of holding comfortably about twenty people, and on a ledge in the front were displayed the five cups to be contended for by horses ridden in the yeomanry ; for four of the cups each horse carried 12st 71b, regardless of age ; for the fifth, called the Officers' Challenge Cup, they were to have carried 13st. This race was walked over for by Lord Malden's Queen Bess, a fine strapping animal, against whom none of the officers dared to pull out their horses. The other four races were in heats, of which each consisted of two, the winner of the first invariably doing the second. The course was kept by the police referred to and four non-commissioned officers of the yeo manry in undress uniform. The starts were all easily managed, and effected by Colonel Malden himself with a white handkerchief, assisted by an imitation M'George, who dropped a red flag after the horses had passed, and the assemblage appeared to take a great interest in the races not generally the case at large meetings. Near the stand were several welchers howling at the top of their savage voices " Two to one bar one," but no body appeared to do any business, or, as it was said, " popped it down," except in the hands of one Keen, whose reputation secured him most of the coin invested. The horses were selected from among the best of the troops for their staying qua lities, generally known to the parties most inte rested. It is a pity that betting on such events should not be confined to simple sweepstakes of a few shillings among bystanders, and the welching fraternity be prohibited altogether. The really exciting race was the last won by Once More (late Here we are Again.) Polly Perkins was made a great favourite, as was also a grey cab horse named Earnest, and no end of half-crowns and half pounds were invested with Keen on the two. The winner was also backed, but only to a small extent, as much as 8 to 1 having been offered against him for the first heat. At a short distance in the rear of the grand stand were the usual three sticks a penny —four tables with as many horses . rudely painted on a c l o th, an d a rev olving piece of iron in the ce n t re , one o f w hi c h, the mother ofh t of sailor boy, was tur n i ng round for the the country men and women who generallydi d notobserve amusement placed their pence on the wrong animal- I any thimbles, or garters, or dice, the four tables with the two pieces o f wood, w hich a large knock down ball could neither get through nor character.

"Toss or and out.side fried fish met buy, toss or buyl" disclosed the pieman of old days, and many " simple Simon" was amusing himself withthe a Bethnal-green Banburies. On each side of the course for a considerable distance stood every kind of local vehicle, from the aristocratic carriage to the farmer's cart. Iced champagne, lobsters and salads were plentiful, and rough substantial fare also turned up in profusion. Several young women complained of having had their purses stolen, and many gentlemen also lost their watches, the operators being too sharp for the local police. One very jolly-looking fellow, an innkeeper from Chancery-lane, caught the perfornier in the Very act, who politely handed him The Attitude of Russia. Le Nord of Saturday's date publishes the follow ing article : " At a critical moment, when all the world in agitated, nothing is so impressive as calmness and silence. Such is the attitude of Russia. Attempts are made on all sides to penetrate the mystery of this attitude and to interpret this silence. Move mats of the troops collected at Lublin are spoken of. A circular is mentioned as having been sent by Prince Gortschakoff to the Russian diplomatic agents, announcing that Russia could not remain in different to an alteration of the European equilibrium. It has even been said that a letter has been written by the Emperor Alexander to the Emperor Napo leon, declaring that Russia would remain neutral if France would do the same. It is scarcely necessary for us to point out the absurdity of these inventions, so contrary to international usages, and even to in ternational proprieties. The attitude of Russia in the present crisis is so simple and so natural that all efforts of imagination can be dispensed with : Russia sincerely desired the preservation of peace. The Emperor Alexander exerted in its favour all his per sonal influence. lie cordially concurred in the pro position of a congress, as the last chance for the continuance of peace. Now, when all these attempts have failed, and the sword has been unsheathed, it only remains for Russia to observe events atten tively, and to protect her interests against their consequences. Her attitude, therefore, may be re- . garded as similar to that of France, in so far that both countries have soughtto preserve peace, and thatboth must desire that the European balanCe of power, if it must be modified by war, should not be so altered to their detriment. But there ends the community of interests, and in no case can the con duct of either of these two Powers be governed by ho attitude of the other. Both retain their full liberty of action. We are unable to say what use France would make of hers in certain eventualities, but, without being possessed of Cabinet secrets, it may be affirmed that Russia has none but conserva- tive interests ; nothing to lead her to seek aggrandise ment. All tkat she might be induced to demand would be guarantees against the consequences of alterations in the European equilibrium. Within those limits and with these qualifications there is certainly ground for an understanding between the neutral Powers. We believe that Russia would not object to it. Such an understanding, if it be possible, would be au advantage. It would have a triple object. In the first place, to circumscribe the area of war. Since the calamity cannot be averted, it would be a great advantage to limit its extent and to prevent its flames from extending, and especially eastward, where so many inflammable elements already exist. An agreement between the three neutral Powers might lead to that result. In the second place, this agreement might have for an object a European mediation to put an end to hos tilities at the first favourable moment that presented itself. It is to be lamented that such a mediation has been unavailing to prevent a war. A Congress before a war would have been an innovation worthy of this era of progress. It would have been a precedent that might have rendered all wars almost impossible by applying practically the theory proclaimed in the treaty of Peace of March 30, 1856. Although that attempt has failed, we must nevertheless acknowledge that the public mind of all Europe revolts against this fratri cidal war bursting in the midst of the marvels of the civilisation of which it is the antithesis. It is not only on the score of material.interests that it is con- damned. The voice which denounces this vandalism is that of reason, of conscience, and of public morality. It sees several States equally civilised who are at issue upon certain questions of right. Their strength is almost equal, and their courage quite so. It is strategy which will probably determine the contest. The Power whose General shall make the most skilful moves upon this classical chessboard will gain the victory. It is, therefore, a gigantic game of chess that has begun, and which will de cide who is right and who is wrong. War ponesses no longer the ancient character of being the Divine judgment. Right and justice are at the mercy of chance, or it may be, of the skilfulness of military combinations. Such theories are revolting to the public sentiment, and since, sooner or later, we must revert to some kind of arrangemen t, it is inadmissible to allow the complete extermination of one of the com batants. It may be that we are still sufficiently barbarous to insist upon the shedding of blood as a satisfaction of honour ; but, after the first battle, the public pressure will doubtless be sufficiently strong to warrant the neutral Powers in interposing between the belligerents. Agreement between the former would, therefore, be necessary in order to take advantage of the lust favourable opportunity. Sketch of the late Fenian Raid into Canada. I The Fenian attack on Canada was intended to be made at three points—from Buffalo against Fort Erie—from Ogdensburgh, New York, against Pres cott, Canada West—and from Rouse's Point, Lake Champlain, and St. Albans, Vermont, which would have intersected the Grand Trunk Railway not far from Montreal. The attacks at the two lower points appear to have been frustrated by the movements of the United States troops. The expedition from Buffalo consisted of 3,000 Fenians. Their object was to cross the Niagara River, to push for the junction of the Great West ern Rail and the Grand Trunk, near Hamilton, and by holding both prevent the passage of troops. Of these 3,000 only 1,200 got over the river, the rest being intercepted. It appears that on the 31st of May the Mayor of Buffalo telegraphed to the Mayors of Toronto and Hamilton that something serious was intended, and the collector of Buffalo stopped all vessels from leaving at night, and only cleared those in the day time that had been searched for arms and ammuni tion. - The Fenians crossed h small squads, and managed to carry with them nine waggon loads of muskets and ammunition. Fort Erie is an abandoned redoubt near a small village, and both were taken without opposition by the Fenian force, under the command of Colonel O'Neill, formerly of the Federal army. The colonel appears to have checked plunder as far as he could on the part of his followers, and the bonds of the Irish Republic were offered in payment of what was taken. Parties were sent forward to de stroy the Buffalo and Huron Railway, and to cut the telegraph wires. The invaders then waited im patiently for reinforcements, but they were inter cepted by the United States steamer Michigan, which got up steam and patrolled up and down the river. Colonel O'Neill, finding the party on the American side cut off, abandoned Fort Erie, and marched down the river towards the Niagara Falls, capturing on his march the village of Waterloo. But the steamer moved as he moved, and all con nection was still impracticable. The Fenians ad vanced to Frenchman's Creek, and there entrenched themselves behind breastworks. On the Ist June two armed tugs joined the steamer, and a complete patrol of the river was maintained. At midnight the Fenian band broke up their camp, and scattered themselves over the country in small parties. In the meantime the Canadian force, about 1,400 volunteers, moved from Suspension Bridge along the Niagara river, towards Frenchman's Creek, while two other columns marched from Port Colborne along the banks of the Lake, against Fort Erie. Both were supported by artillery, and appear to have met and fought the Fenian.s about noon on Saturday, June 2d. One action took place at Ridgway, about eight miles west of Fort Erie. The Fenians there seem to have fought with great desperation. The Canadians at first had the advantage, and were or dered to charge, but the Fenians rallied, broke the Canadians, who retired in disorder on the regulars advancing from Port Colborne. Intelligence of this advance checked the Fenian pursuit, and they abandoned the field, rapidly retreating to Fort Erie. In this affair they lost 6 killed and 15 wounded, the Canadians losing 23 killed and wounded, Lieu tenant P. S. Routh, of Hamilton, being amongst the killed. The other Canadian column captured the abandoned Fenian camp at Frenchman's Creek, and advanced on the village of Waterloo. A small skir mish was fought there, in which the Canadian Volunteers were again repulsed. But the Fenians, in dread of the advance of regulars, retreated on Fort Erie. In this affair two Fenians were killed, and six Canadians wounded. Only 800 of the 1,200 seem to have returned to Fort Erie, the rest having straggled, or been cap tured, or killed by the Canadians. These 800 were completely surrounded by the Canadian troops, who waited for morning to finish their work. But the Fenians had no fancy to be hanged or incarcerated, so under the cover of night they attempted to re treat across the river to the American shore, aban doning 32 of their men, who were on picquet, and who fell into the enemy's bands. The Fenian retreat across the river was disastrous in the extreme. General Grant had arrived at the opposite bank, and by his orders the patrols were strengthened, and all communication cut off. No sooner had the invaders pushed off from the Canadian side than the Michigan and the armed tugs were amongst thegi. Several shots were fired, and some of the Fenians jumped overboard to swim across. Of the 750 who started 700 were taken by the steamer Michigan and her consorts ; five were killed, 25 wounded, and the remainder were either drowned or escaped. Colonel O'Neill and staff were among st those captured. The Fenian invasion began at midnight, 31st May, and ended at midnight, 2d June, asting just 48 Bh e o n body. hours, stire and resulting in the death or capture of the the world for biliousness and indiges tion.
