The manner in which the Prussians have treated the Hanoverians from the period of the Continental war of last year until now has given rise to just feelings of indignation, and there has not been the shadow of an excuse to set up for their harsh and arbitrary proceedings. From first to last it has been the same thing, the " old, old story," still of persecution and oppression, which is ever and again renewed wherever Prussian authority prevails and the councils of Berlin have sway. Proofs are being continually furnished respecting the course pursued, and the last instance furnished is a notable one, for it relates to the persecution of the unfortunate ex-Queen of HANOVER. According to the state ment of a Hamburg Correspondent it appears that the Prussian Government has requested the QUEEN to accept a new suite of attendants, or else to leave the province in three days, these attendants being selected for her by the Government. To this the QUEEN has announced that she cannot agree to either alternative, because she cannot change her place of residence except by the wish of King GEORGE. It seems as if Count BISMARCK had resolved not to be idle, and thus, before the me mory of one act of persecution has died away, another arrives to take its place. Why, in the name of common sense and consistency, do not the Prussian Government rest satisfied with the immense successes which they met withlast summer, and leave the unfortunate victims of their triumphs alone ? The Prussian rulers are in the wrong century of the world, they should have flourished in those ancient times when captives were dragged along at the chariot-wheels of their conquerors, for acts of courtesy and feelings of generosity are quite un known to them, and discountenanced by their rules and regulations. The unfortunate inhabitants of Schleswig have indeed cause to regret the spread of Prussian authority in their direction, and accounts from Copenhagen only tend to confirm the unfavourable impression already entertained of the affair. An address to the KING has been moved in the sitting of the Folkesthing, in which the conduct of Prussia is declared to be quite in contradiction to the pro mises formally given. The paragraphs in the Treaty of Prague, which bear reference to the in habitants of North Schleswig, have not been adhered to in their actual meaning, and it is not to be wondered at that indignation is felt on one side, and disappointment on the other. A separation of the German portion of the popula tion from the Danish seems to be about the best solution of the matter, but the question is whether it will be agreed to or not by the Prussians. Another address of a similar nature was brought forward in the Landsthing, and abundant in stances are furnished of the sentiment which pre vails in Denmark, and indeed it is a case which calls for the sympathy of independent nations. The Fourth of July is always a memorable an niversary. Notwithstanding the grievous changes which the past decade has witnessed in the great and flourishing country which dates its national individuality from the Declaration of Independence, it is still a great annual festival to Americans of every degree, as it has been since the thirteen colonies made the world-famous declaration in 1776. And in truth they have some cause for gratification as they review the rapid progress of those thirteen States, and look round upon the position, the power, and influence which the descendants of the resolute but few and feeble settlers have obtained in the civilised world. In wealth, in energy, in talent of various kinds, in art and science and lite rature, America has shown herself to be as rich and as gifted as the stately kingdoms and empires of the Old World. The natural vigour of the race has, it would seem, received fresh impetus from the wide scope offered to its energies by the pathless forest and untrodden prairie, and the ambition and enter prise of the people has been in keeping with the mighty forces and the boundless liberality with which nature displays herself to their gaze. Never theless, there are, we should imagine, few among the most fervent admirers of American greatness who would not admit that the present position of the United States is full of danger and uncertainty. The years which have elapsed since the termination of the civil war have done little to heal the wounds of the country, or to repair the ravages of the terrible struggle. Under wiseraud to avmohreee seen the legislation we ought by this time cultivation of the vast Southern States reviving, trade recovering from depression, and hope and confidence taking the part of anxiety and distrust. We ought to see civil government once restored to its supremacy, military power everywhere cur tailed, and all parties combining to blot out as far as possible the traces of discord and rivalry. Th° South cannot, indeed, forget its fruitless struggle, nor cease to mourn for its desolated homes, but its people have consented to abide by the issue, and outwardly at least would be satisfied to resume their former employments and industries. But in the present condition of affairs all enterprise is checked. The Southern people themselves exhausted their capital in the war, and from the uncertain and unsettled state to which the Radicals have re duced their prospects, it is not to be supposed or expected that capital will flow in from the North. The effects of all this are naturally felt Northward as well as southward, and the Financial Minister has openly attributed the unsatisfactory state of the exchequer in part to this cause. The white population of the Southern States are losing heart and hope, so much so that they are allowing the ne groes to obtain an unstinted majority on the registry. They waited on hoping for something like justice or magnanimity; but the continued predominance of men like ASHLEY and WADE in the national coun cils renders the chance of real as well as nominal reunion every day more doubtful. The only hope is that the extremity of the theorie3 adyoeated by the se politicians will lead to a reaction of which we ha ye in some places already had symptoms. Con fiac,ation of Southern property has long been op enly talked of, but we now find Mr. WADE, I the President of the Senate, and one of the candidates for the Presidency of the States, contemplating a univernal division of goods and chattels. He takes, as he tells us, "a long jump forward," and this jump lands him in the midst of the regular old Chartist doctrines of "the natural tights of man" and "a more equal distribution of capital." But the Radicals intend to be consistent in their principles, if not in their practice, and are now in some parts demanding a black Vice-Pre sident. WENDF.LL PHILLIPS'S paper, the Anti , Slavery Standard, says that " the race claim that the second office shall be filled by a negro." One might almost suppose, if the proposition came from another quarter, that it was made in satire of the excessive homage paid to the negro by the extreme party. But it is doubtless bona fide, and it affords evidence of the foolish and dangerous extreme to which men will push a great and good principle. The negroes, of course, are very willing to share the Presidential dignity, but we very much doubt whether the general body politic will approve of such an ultimatum. There are elements of strife and turbulence on every side, and it will need firm hands and wise heads to steer the vessel through the storm. The open differences between the PRESIDENT and the Congress, the disputes between military and civil authority, are fruitful sources of evil, while the coming contest for the Presidency will complicate everything. American statesmen just now have troubles abroad as well as at home. The state of affairs in Mexico is eminently unsatisfactory. There seems but little doubt that the brave and unfortunate MAXIMILIAN has fallen a victim to the cruelty of JUAREZ. If so, the Mexicans will have forfeited all claim to European and to American re spect and sympathy. What course the Ameri cans will think fit to take upon the receipt of the fatal intelligence is uncertain. They can hardly pass over such an affront to their emissary unnoticed. Mexico will be a source of trouble for many a day yet, and its stormy and discreditable history seems to be, growing darker and more troublei. From Canada we learn that Lord MONCK has been sworn in as Viceroy, and that the harvest promises to be favourable, so at this momentous season of July we nray congratulate ourselves that the prospects of our own share of the great North American Continent are at least encouraging. It is always to be regretted when those who pro fess to teach others commit great errors themselves, and display ignorance and intolerance to an extra ordinary degree. Such has , manifestly been the case with respect to the language used at Exeter Hall, on Tuesday, by Profesior BEESLEY ; it seems, indeed, strange that any one should so confuse things as to pass such remarks. In referring to Governor EYRE, he said that he was a " murderer, whose hands were red with the blood of four hundred men, and this man committed his crimes in the interests of his employers as BROADHEAD Com mitted his in the interests of the workmen of Sheffield." Can anything be more absurd than such a statement, as well as more unjust ? In the first place, no one supposes that the outrages in Sheffield were for the interests of the workmen in Sheffield, and by this time, in all human probability, they have been thoroughly disabused of the notion themselves. This mistake, however, is as nothing compared to the other part of the statement. It is indeed high time that all the exaggeration and misrepresentation about the Jamaica business should cease, for the public had enough, and too much of it ; but it appears that Professor BEFSLY seeks to renew the theme, looking at it from the point of view the most extreme and prejudicial that is possible. These remarks are mischievous in every way, and it is quite out of character to set BROAD HEAD up as a hero in this manner. As for the notion that " murder by trades' unions was no better and no worse than any other murder," it is an ex traordinary one ; but it will not confer much renown upon its advocate, nor will it tend to improve the state of comprehension among those who subscribe to his theories. We should say th-lt, on the contrary, " murder by trades' unions was, in most instances, far worse than any other murder. In the first place, it is premeditated, and committed without any of those circumstances taking place which give rise to passion, or excite feelings of jealousy and distrust. If anything could show the repulsive character of these outrages more than another, it would be the fact that some of the offenders have sought to destroy the lives of those they have never seen, simply because they bad acted against the rules of the society they declared to be law. It is difficult to understand how any one can make such remarks as this, but it shows the importance of people judg ing for themselves, and not suffering themselves to be influenced by those who confuse things, and do injustice and injury to others after this fashion. As for Governor EYRE, we have always been among those who believed that he did his best in a very difficult position, but those who disapproved of the steps he took would not hesitate to condemn the arguments here employed as fallacious and unsound. It is quite out of character to compare the goings on at Sheffield and the suppression of the Jamaica outbreak at all ; there is no similarity between them, and it can answer no possible end but that of confusing people'who may not be well acquainted with the facts, and showing the mistaken conclu sions at which men may arrive when they proceed to discuss social subjects and public events in a partial and prejudiced manner. THE. SULTAN.—We are informed that the Sultan has azcepted the invitation of the Secretary of State for India, and that his Imperial Highness will be present at a ball to be given at the new India-office on Friday, the 19th inst. We believe this invitation emanated entirely from the authorities at the India- office, who are using every en deavour tq make the entertainment worthy of the occasion, though at the same time they regret that want of space will limit the invitations at their disposal. The Sultan will arrive on the 12th inst. THE VICEROY OF EGYPT.—We have great plea sure in announcing that the hospitality and munificence of a private nobleman has been interposed to protect the na tion from the reproach which would have been end upon it if the course, against which we so energetically pro tested, had boon pursued of lodging the guest of the nation, the Viceroy of Egypt, at an hotel. Lord Dudley, with a public spirit which will not fail to be gratefullyappreciated by all who are jealous of our national honour, has placed his magnificent mansion, Dudley-house, Park-lane, and his establishment at tho disposal of the Viceroy during his stay in this country, and the Cabinet have accepted his offer. We believe the Duke of Sutherland MIS also ready to place Stafford House at the Viceroy's disposal, and that a magnificent fete will be given there iu honour of bin Ilighn6ss. THE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN.—WC are authorised to state that in consequence of the very alarming reports which have r eac h e d Europe respecting the Emperor Maxi milian, first cousin to the Queen, her Majesty has decided on putting off the State ball, ordered to take place at Buck ingham Palace to-morrow, unless an official contradiction of the reports should be received. The Queen will, how ever, hold the Review in Hyde -park should no confirma tion arrive of the news of the Emperor's death, being un willing to cause the disappointment to the public which a postponement would occasion. The Queen has commanded (says the Owl) that the "Life of the Prince Consort" should be forthwith undertaken, and to the pen of Mr. Theodore Martin, the translator of Goetho's ballads, her Majesty has committed the tack. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Wednesday Evening. A despatch has been received in Paris from New York, dated July 1, which seems to confirm the re port of the capture of Mexico by the Juarists. It is again announced positively that the Emperor Maximilian has been shot. It is feared that the news is true, because it emanates officially from the Austrian Minister at Washington, and the Com mander of the Austrian steamer Elizabeth, stationed at Vera Cruz. A court-martial sat with closed doors on the 27th of May to try the Emperor, who was condemned to death on the night of the 3d of Juno, and the Escobedo party took the most energetic steps to have the sentence carried into execution. The _lndependence Beige, on the authority of a despatch from Vienna, says the Emperor was shot on the 19th of June. This statement has been re ceived in Paris several times, but now it has the ad ditional confirmation of the Memorial Diplomatique. In the official report read at the Palace of In dustry by M. Rouher, there i s a very just and im portant appreciation of the obj ec t s and results of the Exhibition. One part of the r e p ort says : " The obstacles which the Imperial Commission had to overcome were very considerable. It was requisite to transform the Champ de Mars, to raise constructions which are the ornament of the park, erect the palace, a vast monument, which extends over a surface of 15 hectares, to install and class the products exhibited, and to foresee and provide for the wants of that immense agglomeration of persons and things. " The time to arrive at such a result was parsi moniously measured out. Only a few months were allowed, and prolonged unseasonable weather inter fered with the employment of that time. The pro portions of the edifice, too, are much larger than those of preceding Exhibitions. The surface occu pied by the Palace and its dependencies in 1865 was 15 hectares, ten hectares and a half in 1862. In 1867 the extent of the Exhibition is more than 40 hectares, of which the Palace covers more than a third. The number of exhibitors, which was 22,000 in 1855, 28,000 in 1862, is now 60,000. The weight of the articles exhibited is more than 28,000 tons. By means of the railway communication to the Palace, however, the enormous mass of articles were brought with the requisite celerity and care, although the greater portion only arrived at the latter end of March. The motive power installed to set the machines in motion represents more than that of a thousand horses. The hydraulic service affords a supply of water to provide abundantly for a town of 100,000 souls. In spite of the gigantic labours necessary to provide for these exigencies, the work was completed at the time fixed. " If we be not deceived, the judgment of the public is that success has crowned the enterprise. Every one was struck with the conception of the general plan and the facilities which it offers for comparison and study. Every one approves of that law of unity which concentrates in the Champ de Mars the fine arts, industry, agriculture, and horti culture, which were formerly disseminated in dis tinct localities, and which now present in the same spot all the manifestations of human activity. " Public opinion has now given recognition of the fact that the edifice, criticised for a moment, is perfectly appropriate to the object of it—that opi nion admits that the conditions necessary for clear and methodical classification of the nations and their products could not be sacrificed only for a building of a monumental aspect, and that vast naves would have overw h e l me d the articles exhi bited, instead of placing them so as to be properly seen." The report proceeds to describe the utility of the general arrangements of the galleries, th e precau tions used to avoid danger in inspecting th e machinery, and the skill in selecting the proper means of placing and seeing all the varied results of human labour. It then passes a merited eulogium upon the labour and impartiality of the Juries, and concludes with this eloquent descrip tion of the results of the Exhibition : " Thus the Universal Exhibition has revealed fresh results of indastry, and has initiated im provements which without it would have been useless or unknown. It has brought to light that law of the division of labour which is as produc tive between nations as b e t ween individuals. It has afforded a striking co nsecration of those prin ciples of commerci a l f ree d om beldy i naugurated in France by your Majesty, mu l t i plied economical re lations between peoples, a n d presages for an early p e r i period atheproblem money. ne y. Thelnternational of uniformity e Exhibition weights, mea sures,has led to even more valuable consequences. It has dissipated inveterate prejudices, overthrown secular hatreds, and engendered reciprocal esteem. Princes and sovereigns, attracted by a noble hospitality, come by turns to reciprocate in this temple of civi lisation those friendly words which open to human activity the prospect of calm horizons andstrengthen the peace of the world." \Vhat is here said is true to the l e t ter. The Exhibition is a ~ great fact," as t h e. Times once said of the Anti Corn Law League. French and foreigners generally, if not unanimously, re pudiate the strictures originally, but faintly, made as to the aspect of the Palace build ing, and acknowledge the opinion given in the report that proper classification was more important for the building than a " monumental aspect." Even in the latter resp ect, too, public it o waspinio on nh e o e ld e s a t ll o ed th , e i that s id n e e a tth e r the " gasometer," as unsightly nor inappro priate for its purpose. M. Le Play has usefully and indefatigably " done his duty,', and more —and scarcely a man could be found in Paris to deny it. The ceremony on Monday has been aptly described as the " Fete of Peace." a serious 3' ) w hi c h at first seemed Cardinal Donnet, Archbishop o f B ordeaux, met e e with an lik a e c ly cid t e o nt be ttethaeonth d d r d with conse quences. While the Cardinal was officiating at a religious ceremony h e rose from his arm chair, and one of his assistants suddenly removed it, not think ing that he intended to resume his seat. The Car dinal, however, was about to Bit down again, and in consequence of the removal of the chair he fell with great violence against the marble of the altar. Great consternation arose. The Prelate was insens ible, but his forehead was bathed with cold water, and he soon recovered. An interesting ceremony took place at Bordeaux a few days ago. M. Baroussel and his wife cele brated the 50th anniversary of their marriage by the performance of the marriage rites a second time. Children and grandchildren, forming a numerous company, were at the wedding dinner, after which the two old people f-ound sufficient strength of foot to dance the " Cossack." A mysterious lady, " the Amazon," as she is called, has lately excited a good deal of attention in the Bois de Boulogne. She rides there on horse back every day, and so closely veiled that no one can see her face. Th e other day s h e a li g h ted at a café to take some refreshment, and there was such a crowd that no one could enter. The lady, seeing this, remounted her horse and dashed away at full gallop, to the great disappointment of the curious. All sorts of stories are in circulation in Paris about this lady, but the only fact which seems certain is, that she is a " great unknown," and is very rich.

ROME. RoME, June 29. The canonisation ceremony and the centenary of St. Peter and St. Paul were celebrated to-day with great splendour. Five hundred prelates, cardinals, archbishops, and bishops attended the Pope in St. Peter's, which was filled by 50,000 persons. The Neapolitan Royal family and the whole of the Diplomatic Body occupied seats round the choir. Everything passed off in perfect order. The in terior decorations and illuminations of St. Peter's alone proved a failure. At 9 o'clock some drapery caught fire at the extremity of the right aisle of the cathedral while some wax tapers were being lighted. The flames spread to the ornamental hangings in the immediate vicinity, which were soon destroyed. The multitude in the cathedral became alarmed, and a rush to the doors had commenced when the firemen arrived and succeeded in extinguishing the flames a minute or two before the Pope entered the building. Some ill secured lustres fell to the ground and caused slight hurts to several persons. On Monday the foreign Archbishops and Bishops will present to the Holy Father their reply to the Allocution of the 26th inst. This reply is couched in very moderate terms. The English and Ameri can Bishops desired to render it much stronger in an Ultramontane sense. They used great efforts to this end, and their excessive zeal was much re marked. Notwithstanding their opposition, how ever, the more moderate form of address was finally adopted. Twenty-six cases of cholera are reported to have occurred yesterday. A Spanish archbishop and an American bishop are stated to be among the number of those seized with the malady. ITALY. FLORENCE, July 4. The Italie of to-day asserts that Prince Humbert has postponed his journey to Vienna on account of the death of the Emperor Maximilian. SPAIN. MADRID, July 4. It is believed that the Chamber of Deputies will definitely vote the conversion of the Passive Debt. The first amendment on the bill was thrown out by 139 against 13 votes. PORTUGAL. LISBON, July 4. The Ring and his brother, the Infant Dorn Augusto, who left yesterday on board the corvette Bartholomeo Diaz, for Bordeaux, will proceed thence to Geneva, where he will meet the Queen of Portugal, and their Majesties will continue their journey together. FRANCE. The Moniteur of to-day says : PARIS, July 4. " The Emperor has received l e tt ers from the Queen of Eland, by which her M a j es t y terminates the miss on of Lord Cowley as Ambassador and Plenipotentiary Extra ordinary at Paris." TILE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN. The Baron von Beust, Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, has sent a despatch to the Austrian Ambassadors announcing that information has been received that the Emperor Maximilian fell a sacrifice on the 19th ult. Baron von Beust then announces the steps that were taken by the Austrian Government several months ago to avoid the terrible calamity, and states that the Imperial family, foreseeing that the result of the expedition to Mexico would be a failure, cheerfully agreed to reinstate the Emperor Maxim' ilian in all those rights, as nearest agnate to the Austrian throne, which he renounced on accepting the throne of Mexico. When the news of his capture was received all means was adopted in order to bring about a diplomatic intervention in his favour by the whole of Europe, and previously, with a too fatal foresight of corning dangers, the Austrian Ambas sador at Washington had been instructed to address himself to the Government of the United States, and to solicit their active intervention in case of any danger threatening the Emperor. The result of Mr. Seward's humane intervention is known. As soon as intelligence of the capitulation of the Emperor was received, the Emperor of the French, the Emperor of Russia, and the King of Prussia were called upon to instruct their ambassadors at Washington to unite their influence with that of the Austrian Ambassador for the safety of the Emperor. All the Powers immediately acceded to this request, and her Majesty Queen Victoria further supported the exertions of the diplomatists, as the life of a near and dear relative was at stake. The representatives of Juarez at Washington having tried to justify the most severe measures, on the ground that the Emperor Maximilian would for ever remain a pretender, and would have assembled around him a party who would keep the country in a state of anarchy, an imperial family council assem bled, and it was resolved to reinstate the Emperor in all his former rights, and at the same time to give guarantees that he should renounce all claims to the throne of Mexico. The question of ransom had never been mooted at this time, but sacrifices to any amount would have been made at Vienna in orde r that the lif e o f one so d ear t o th e imperial family might have been spared. It was also seen that dan gers might arise if such a course were adopted. The idea was entertained that it would be expedient to despatch a confidential agent to Juarez, in order to open a negotiation with a view of inducing him to accept a sum of money on condition that he libe rated the Emperor. The consideration here arose that this step would be attended with much danger, for however great the ability of the emissary dis covery might result, and then the safety of the Em peror would be much more endangered. It also seemed clear that Juarez, with the best intentions, would be powerless in opposition to the other leaders. Neither could this last hope of the Aus trian family be carried out, as time was wanting to give effect to it. HAYMARKET TIIEA,RE.—MR. BUCKSTONE'S BE NEFIT.—This interesting event in the theatrical season takes place this evening. We feel we need hardly remind the public of the fact, because it is ono of those peculiar entertainments that invariably secures for the talented manager an overflowing house. The annual speech of Mr. Buckstone, to be delivered this evening, would of itself be quite sufficient to cause a great audience to assemble, irrespective of the other Attra , :tiQuo in the programme. Naval and Military Intelligence. The 2d Regiment of Life Guards, commanded by Col. Marshall, left the Windsor Cavalry Barracks at an early hour this morning for London, in order to take part in the review which will be held by her Majesty the Queen to morrow. The troops were ac coutred as for active service, and marched by road to the Knightsbridge and Regent's Park Barracks, where they will be quartered during their stay in London. The dismounted men are to proceed from Windsor to town by special train on the Great Western line. The 2d Life Guards will have the honour of providing escorts for the whole of the royal party upon the occasion of the review. The regiment will leave London early on Saturday morn ing and return to Windsor. In reference to the assembling of a special com mittee from the War-office, appointed to meet in the official quarters of Col. Campbell, superinten dent of the Royal Gun Factories at Woolwich, to investigate the chargesrecently made by a draughts man suspended fur a dereliction of duty, who at tempted to falsify and depreciate the advantages of the new gun of cheap construction some time ago adopted by the Government, a written communica tion was received yesterday from Major-Gen. St. George, C. 8., director of ordnance, stating that the result of the investigation had been highly satisfac tory, and that the manner in which the accounts are now kept is creditable alike to all concerned. Mr. Fraser, C.E., the deputy-assist.-superintendent, who has so successfully introduced the system of cheap construction, is to be informed that Sir John Pakington, the War Secretary of State, has decided on awarding him, as a first instalment, in recognition of the advantages accrued from his invention, the sum of £5,000, to be paid forthwith. It was also announced at the same time that an instalment of £lO,OOO was ordered to be paid to Major Palliser, 7th (Queen's Own) Hus sars, with an additional £5,000 next year, by way of a second instalment, as an encouragement and stimulus to promote the continuance of his eminent services, which have, so far as regarded the economy and efficiency of his chill system, produced such valuable results. Her Majesty's screw iron troopship Serapis, Capt. John Soady, was yesterday handed over by the Thames Iron Works Company, and left the Victoria Docks for Greenhithe, to adjust compasses, and pre pare for the transport of the Belgian Volunteers to England. She was conveyed down the river by three steam tugs. She is to take her departure on the 9th for the Scheldt, she will embark the Volun teers at Antwerp, and land them at Gravesend on the 11th. The hydraulic iron-plated gunboat Water witch was taken out of the fitting basin at Wool wich and proceeded down the rifer a few minutes in advance of the Serapis, also to adjust ,compasses at Greenhithe to prepare to join the squadron at Spithead. Colour-Serg. Madwick, in charge of the corporal and 18 privates, Royal Marines, Woolwich division, appointed as a detachment to serve on board the Serapis, followed in her Majesty's ship Bustler, Master Commander Draper. The amalgamated bands belong to the Royal Engineers and Royal Marines at Chatham, that of the Royal Marine Artillery at Portsmouth, and the divisional band of Royal Marines Light Infantry at Woolwich have been engaged for the past three days at Woolwich in a joint rehearsal of their parts to be performed before the Queen on Friday in Hyde park.

They performed from 9to 12 o'clock, the selection of slow and quick marches intended for the review, concluding with the National Anthem. Capt. Rochfort Maguire, who recently returned to England from his command as Commodore of the second class on the Australion station, owing to ill health, died at the Royal Naval Hospital at Haslar, on Saturday last, and was buried in the hospital cemetery yesterday. Capt. R. Maguire entered the navy from the Royal Naval College in November, 1830, passed his examination in 1835, and served as mate on board the Wasp, 16, during the opera tions on the coast of Syria, and was severely wounded at the capture of Sidon, where by his gal lunt behaviour he gained his lieutenancy. Captain Maguire's commands as post captain were the Galatea, screw frigate, on the West India Station, and the Challenger, screw corvette, as commodore of the second class on. the Australian station, from which he wascompelled to invalid owing to the state of his health.

THE YELVERTON CASE.—It was hardly likely that so romantic a story as that of the lady now pleading her cause before the House of Lords should have escaped the notice of our novelists, and accordingly we find that Mr. Cyrus Redding has made it the basis of an interesting novel, under The appropriate title of " A Wife and Not a Wife." The condition of affairs pointed out by Mr. Redding as still existing in some portion of our marriage law is certainly somewhat startling. MURDER AT FORFAR.—On Saturday three tent men attached to Messrs. Sanger's Circus were apprehended at Perth by three officers of the Forfar police on suspicion of being concerned in the death of a farm servant at Forfar on Thursday evening. The prisoners apprehended are all men of colour.

WINDSOR CASTLE, July 3. The Queen, accompanied by her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice, drove in the grounds yesterday afternoon. Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse rode on horseback, attended by Colonel the Hon. A Hardinge. Prince Leopold went out driving, attended by Mr. Legg. Her Majesty the Queen, the Queen of Prussia, Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, Prince Leopold, and Princess Beatrice, went out in the grounds this morning. Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Louis of lles:se left the Castle this afternoon for Marl borough liouz - e, attended by Baroness Schenck and Captain Von Westerweiler. Their Royal Highnesses the Count and Countess de Paris, attended by Madlle. Boerio, have left the Claren don Hotel for York House, Twickenham. His Excellency the Turkish Ambassador, accom panied by M. E. 3.lusurus, will arrive at the Turkish Embassy in Bryanston-square, from Paris, this morning. His Excellency the Austrian Ambassador and the Countess Apponyi, in consequenco of the recent sad news as to the fate of the Emperor Maximilian, have for a time declined all invitations. The Sultan and the Corporation of London. His Highness the Sultan having honoured the Corporation of the City of London by accepting their invitation to an entertainment, on the occasion of his approaching visit to this country, most costly preparations are being made by the civic authorities for the occasion, which will probably be on Thurs day, the 18th of July, though the day is not defini tively fixed. The invitation of the city was conveyed through Lord Stanley, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and promptly accepted by his High ness, the reply being made through Lord Lyons. The entertainment will be in the nature of an evening reception, as being most in unison with the wishes of the Sultan. It will be given in the Guild hall, and an address of congratulation and welcome in the name of the Corporation, and on the part of the citizens at large, will be presented to his Highness in a casket of gold. This part of the ceremony will be followed by a grand concert and ball, the enter tainment concluding with a supper. The occasion being in itself altogether unique, the history and traditions of the Corporation of London, replete as they are with examples of the entertainment of crowned heads from time to time, scarcely afford a precedent for it, but the authorities have resolved, so far as in them lies, to render it in every respect worthy of the illustrious visitor, and of their ancient renown for munificent hospitality. With this view they have appointed a committee consisting of more than half the magistrates and of the representatives from the 25 wards into which the city is divided, to make the requisite arrangements and to conduct the reception, and have voted an unlimited amount of money. The invitations will be about 3,000 in number, and will include the Prince of Wales and other members of the Royal family, the whole of her Majesty's Mi nisters and great officers of State, Peers, members of the House of Commons, and foreign Ambassadors, among other persons of distinction. To-day, 'at a. meeting of the Common Council, Mr. Deputy Fry, the chairman of the Entertainment Committee, will move a resolution, pursuant to notice, to the effect that upon the occasion of the visit of the Sultan an address be presented to his Highness in a gold box of the value of 100 guineas. Meanwhile most elaborate preparations are being made in anticipation of the event at Guildhall. A stately reception saloon is iu course of erection in the open space in front of the hall and leading to it, from a design by Mr. Horace Jones, the city archi tect, and in other respects the hall itself is being adapted and adorned for the occasion. The re ception saloon, which is of the most solid materials and workmanship, will be 100 ft. long by about 60ft. wide, and be disposed in two floors, with a handsome facade and verandah towards King-street, Cheapside. The upper floor will be approached by four easy flights of stairs at each corner of the nevi building, and supported on rows of lonic columns. It is intended to be used as a supper room on the occasion, and will be of a size sufficient to accom modate 600 guests at one time. A double staircase will also lead to the upper story through the en trance to the Law Courts, and the whole of the approaches to it will be ornamented with fountains, statuettes, and choice flowers. Two of the LaW Courts are likewise being so adapted as to afford ac commodation for about 300 more guests at supper. The handsome and spacious apartments on the ground floor, after having served the purposes of a reception saloon, will be made available for &trac ing later in the evening, as will also the great hail itself, which has been restored and embellished at immense cost within the last few years. At the eastern end of the Guildhall a dais is being constructed, 50ft. wide by 36ft. deep, on the centre of which will be a throne, with three canopied scatO --one for the Sultan, another for the Prince of Wales, and the third for the Viceroy of Egypt. Th e sides and back of the dais will be hung with crimson velvet, decorated with gold, and with crescents and stars. The open court-yard, between the Alder' men's Chamber and that of the Common Council , will be converted for the occasion into an Italian garden, ornamented with fountains, statues, an d rare flowering plants, and a handsome apartments recently constructed as a committee. room for th e city magistrates, will be app ropr i ate d to t h e use 0 the Sultan. In the Council Chamber, which i° being expressly fitted up for the purpose, his High' ness and about 60 of the more distinguished gueota will be entertained at supper. The occasion altogether promises to be one of or traordinary magnificence and interest, for whic h parallels are only or chiefly to be found in the memorable entertainments given by the Corpora' tion to the allied Sovereigns in 1814, to her Majc s tl the Queen in 1837, and to their Royal lliglanesse a the Prince and Princess of Wales on their marriage' TIIE VISIT OF THE VICEROY OF EGYPT.-- 3130 Lord Mayor and the L a dy M ayoress w ill h ave th e b o n° of entertaining at a grand banquet at the Mansion Hous e ; on Thursday, the 11th i ns t., hi s Hi ghness the Viceroy' of Egypt, who has accept e d th e i nv i tat i on given to him the Lord Mayor at Paris.
