It Was evident that the louse fally shared the feeling of the Chancellor of the Exchequer upon this point, and had resolved to come to a conclusion as speedily as possible. Five hours of the afternoon were occupied with the consideration of the mea sure, and two or three later on in the evening. Finally, the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, amid cheering, announced that the third reading of the Bill would be taken on I\londay. This is indeed an end worth stirring for, and it cannot be too much rejoiced at. Only those who have taken part in those discussions, and who have watched their course from day to day can fully ap preciate the difficulties that arise when they are all apparently surmounted, and the work that must be done when the uninitiated imagine that everything, or nearly everything, has been accomplished. Al though the sense of the 'louse had been pretty plainly expressed as to the desirability of passing the bill of the Government during this session, still its passage through the Committee has been an arduous task, and the exertion required to arrive at a satisfactory end cannot be overrated. Some of those who have abstained from bringing forward factious motions at the earlier part of the sessson considered themselves privileged to be as obstruc tive as possible during the subsequent stages of the affair, and their conduct in the Committee was most wearisome and vexatious. Mr. DisnaELl must, indeed, be glad to have reached this part of the proceeding , , for it was only by dint of hard work, combined with tact and discretion, that he has done so, and as it is well known the effort required for such a task is great and difficult to sustain for a prolonged period. The right hon. gentleman showed his sense of the sacrifices that have been made by private members in the progress of the Reform Bill, for, he said, that he would consider the state of affairs and compensate as far as possible those members who have waived their rights for the furtherance of the measure before the House. :Nothing of particular interest took place yesterday, for it was more the desperate attempt not to lose the last chance that prompted those who spoke, rather than the ex pectation that any change would take place. Mr. H. BERKELEY brought up a 'clause to provide for taking vote by Ballot, but he must have known full well himself that that was not the time for the discussion of the subject. Mr. OSBORNE made one of his extraordinary speeches on the matter, stating that though, as yet, he had only been a lukewarm supporter of the proposal, he now felt that it would be doubly neces sary, in order to protect workmen from the intimi dation of their own class. It is certain that Mr. OSBORNE can always find something astonishing to say, and this last speech is not an exception to the rule. Lord E. CECIL'S clause for disfranchising persons convicted of felony was negatived. Mr. GLADSTONE was against its being carried out, stating that it belonged to the criminal law to consider such points, and did not appertain to their province. Mr. BOUVERIE very unnecessarily commented upon the lodger franchise, but the Chancellor of the Exche quer very wisely forbore to renew the discussion on the subject, which proroked some comments from Mr. GLADSTONE not of the most flattering kind, for he seemed to infer that Mr. DISRAELI'S silence arose from the fact of his not feeling very strongly on the point. This was most extraordinary on his part, seeing that the right hon. gentleman was the first to propose it, and that the House of Commons has been almost unanimous in its favour this session. We do not entertain any apprehensions of the character that seem to influence Mr. GLAD STONE, and to make him fear that the other House will not consent to this clause. By this time the matter has been so well analysed that there will be no excuse for arriving at another de cision, and it is quite idle to indulge in chimerical notions of this kind. We fully agree with the 191— 11 re I f 1, 1 been most unwise to have disturbed the schedules by the substitution of Wandsworth, Tooting, and Streatham as a Parliamentary borough, in lieu of Darlington. If anything were wanting to prove the truth of this assertion, it would have been the diversity of opinion that prevailed on the question. Mr. L. KING, with jus tice, declared that he knew Surrey, and that if it was to have a new borough it should be Croydon. There has been • plenty of time given to the discussion of this measure, and it would have been most unfor tunate if any . hindrance had been put in the way of progress yesterday. The worst may now be said to be fairly over, for there is no likelihood of any de cided opposition being made in the House of Lords. It is always a mistake to make too certain, and dan gers often arise when least expected, but in all human probability the Reform Bill of this Session may be said to have been virtually decided upon by this time; and it is no exaggeration to declare that such a result is one most earnestly to rejoice at, for it removes from the arena of discussion a most vexatious Eubject of controversy, while it confers great benefit upon the community by the enlightened spirit in which it has been carried out. The arrival of the China, with news from New York to the 4th July, brings us intelligence which shows Congress to be as bent upon mischief as ever. Prudent men, it is said, view with some apprehen sion the assembling of the Legislature at this junc ture. They fear that Congress will meddle with the finances, and repeal the excessive appropriations which during the last few sessions have so greatly helped to embarrass the Secretary of the Treasury. There is a hope that the session may only last for a few days, required for the passage of certain laws, and that the moderate members will suc ceed in restraining it within narrow limits. So far as we yet know the members seem inclined, however, to plunge into all the vexed questions of the day. The majority of the Judiciary Committee a report, recommending, it is said, the are preparing ime meeting the impeachment of Congress impeachment of Presi dent of Congress, too, is regarded as a s i g nal for re opening the political canvassing for the coming election ; and though such a prospect may be wel come to the speculators and those who make their profits out of times of political excitement, it does not augur well for that stability of business and finance which are so grievously wanted. The PRESIDENT'S tour in the North has been a decided success, and contrasts favourably with the result of his last year's excursion. In the New England States his reception was most hospitable, and he has won golden opinions, The New Eng landers determined to put aside all political feeling, and receive him with the honour d.ie to his official position. The PRESIDENT on his side avoided all dangerous topics, and in Boston especially, usually supposed to be the very stronghold of Radicalism, his visit was an unbounded success. Philadelphia alone stood aloof and refused to receive the illustri ous visitor, and orders were consequently given that the Presidential train should not even stop in passing through the city, so that if the ill-bred Radicalism of Philadelphia intended any expression of hostile feeling it was denjed the opportunity. It is to be hoped that after this cordial meeting the PRESIDENT and the New Englanders will be able to understand one another better, and that there will be less chance of misrepresentation on both sides. The Reconstruction Bill continues to give a good deal of trouble. The PRESIDENT ha - , actively in- terfered so far as to give positive instructions to' General SHERIDAN to extend the time for the registration of voters in Louisiana until fur ther notice. Governor BROWNLOW, in Tennessee, appears inclined to produce a tumult if he can. He has issued a proclamation declaring that the county courts have no power to appoint officers for the State elections, and has ordered his militia to enforce the new franchise law, excluding all parti cipants in the rebellion. The Reconstruction Act has, in fact, given a fresh vigour to the disputes about Southern rights. SIIERIDAN and SICKLES are regarded as prime leaders of one party as the PRESIDENT is of the other, and at the recent Re public Convention in Pennsylvania resolutions were passed thanking the Generals for their opposition to Mr. JOHNSON, and asking General GRANT to follow the same course. GRANT, however, seems tb be cautious of committing himself. Ile has not of late taken any prominent part in the political struggle, and he possibly thinks that by prudence he may secure the votes of the moderate party, which would not be likely to be given to an ultra- Radical. The negro suffrage question is a severe trial to most of the Republican Conventions. They are divided upon it, and are perplexed what to say. In Pennsylvania, where the Radicalism was rampant, and the support given to the proceedings of Congress was unqualified, bee resolutions were absolutely silent concerning it. The Maine Republican Convention was more una nimous, and demanded universal negro suffrage throughout the county—a demand not likely to meet with a very enthusiastic response. One of the first acts of Congress has been to introduce bills em powering the military commanders to remove all civil officers at discretion, so that the subordination of civil to military law seems to be a recognised part of their programme. The Radicals do not appear to perceive, or if they dc perceive it, they are indifferent to the fact, that by all such acts they are paving the way to a military dictatorship, which is usually the death-blow to all Republics. The Mexican news is as yet very meagre, save that the fact of the capture of the city of Mexico on the 20th is known. The American Press generally express reat sympathy for MAXIMILIAN, though no public notice has as yet been taken of his fate. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Friday Evening. The Ber:in papers comment with increas ing bitterness upon all persons who presume to differ in the least degree with M. Bismarck. The Gazette Nationale of that city contains correspon dence from Schleswig, in which it is argued that the presentation of an address from the Reichsradt and the articles of the Dagbladet of Copenhagen have no other object than to excite France against Germany. The Gazette adds :—" We have here opposed to us a venomous dwarf who substitutes for the strength which fails him artifices of language for provocation." The discussion in the Chamber of Deputies of Italy upon the subject of the project of law relative to Ecclesiastical property proceeds in a favourable spirit, and there seems every probability of the realisation of the wish expressed by M. Rattazzi, that there will be no essential difference as to prin ciple between the Government and the Parliament. This morning the funeral ceremony took place, at the church of St. Ferdinand des Termes, over the remains of another eminent member of the theatrical profession. Lambert Thiboust, the first comic actor of the day, and author of many dramas, has died at the early ago of 40. Only a day or two ago the members of the profession assembled in large num bers to pay the last tribute of respect to Pousard. Thiboust was a gay and joyous actor, and ever created genuine mirth and laughter. Among his very numerous pieces are " Les Filles de Marbre," "La Maricie du Mardi Gras," and " L'Homme RasLpas had u, gre ver at l In private life that if he had sought over so much he could not have found an enemy. • Friends he bad everywhere, who will regret him as much as his mother, - whom he adored. A lady, the Countess Thurn, who resided near Charleroi, has just met her death under circum stances very similar to those under which the young Archduchess Matilda perished. The countess, who had just sealed a letter, incautiously threw the match with which she had lighted the taper behind her. In an instant her dress caught fire. -Her husband hearing her cries ran to her assistance, and rolled her on the carpet, but she died a few days after wards from the injuries in great agony. The bell and part of the striking machinery of the belfry of St. Epore, at Nancy, have just been taken down for repairs. On the bell there is an inscription in large Roman letters to the effect that it was placed there in the reign of Charles 111., under the supervision of Count de Salm, Governor of Nancy in the year 1576. It has the arms of Lorraine, and is also ornamented with the thistle of _.... Nancy. There are the four Evangelists, with their symbolical attributes. Also a small circular medal lion representing in profile the bust of our Saviour. On the other side a small melallion representing the Holy Virgin holding the infant Jesus standing up on her knees, with the two names Jesus, Maria. A small piece of money was fixed after the last word of the legend, and served as a full stop. By the direction of the Austrian Ambassador a funeral service will be performed to-morrow at the German Church in the Rue Lafayette, in com memoration of the Emperor Maximilian. Accounts fram Cherbourg announce the arrival in that port of the Imperial yacht Jerome Napoleon, having on board Prince Napoleon and the Duke and Duchess d'Aoste. The yacht was saluted by the squadron and the vessels in port. Madame Wyse (formerly Letitia Bonaparte) has been at Cherbourg for some days. Prince Arthur has also arrived at Cherbourg, accompanied by Major Elphinstone, and Lieutenant Pickard, on.his way to England, in the Royal Yacht Osborne. The Sul tan, it is said, will embark at Cherbourg on his return to his dominions. The ironclad squadron which is to escort him awaits the Sultan's orders to proceed for any other port should he change his in tention of going from Cherbourg. A grand farewell dinner was given by the Emperor at the Tuileries to the Sultan, at which were present all the high dignitaries of the State and the Court, the ambassadors, the heads of the Legations, and the principal persons of his suite. This was the first time that the subjects of the Sultan sat at his table. It was an honour never before granted by any Padischal, who always eats alone. The Queen of Prussia, who travels under the titlo of Countess of Hohenzollern, is staying at the Prussian Embassy. Her Majesty is in deep mourning in consequence of the death of the Emperor Maximilian. Before leasing Paris the Viceroy of Egypt, through the medium of his Excellency Nubar Pacha, remitted to Baron II tussman, the Prefect of the Seine, a sum of 45,000 f. for the poor of the 30 arrondissements of Paris, and 20,000 f. for the foundation, in the name of his Royal Highness, of a professorship at the College Chaptal. I mentioned a few days ag) a frightful case of murder and mutilation. Portions of the body of an old man named Duque had been found at St. Omer and St. Denis. From the exertions of the police the head has been discovered in the Seine opposite Epinay. It is identified beyond doubt by the fa mily. The skull was fractured in eight places, and the head must have been cut off with a hatchet. Several men have been arrested on suspicion. The police have been able to trace the exact route pur sued by the unfortunate man. He was seen in com-. pany with a person in several places, and that in dividual was with him at Clichy and at Levallois ferret. The deceased was robbed of some hundreds of francs which he had received at market. The Moniteur of this evening announces that the THE SUN. LONDON. SATURDAY EVEN IN a, JULY 13, 1867. Princess William of Baden, daughter of the Grand Duchess Marie of Russia, has been happily delivered of a Prince. Field Marshal Count de Creureville, first aide-de camp of the Emperor of Austria, has been relieved from his functions, and has been appointed Bead Chamberlain of the Court. The close of the Session of the Danish Reichs radt will take place to-morrow. _ _ The grand musical festival at the Palace of In dustry, postponed several times, took place yester day, directed by M. George Ilainl. Ten thousand persons were present, and the festival was brilliant. At the Exhibition yesterday the Algerian troops commenced their performance. It was a curious spectacle. Negroes and negresses, Moors and Moorish women, in native costume, were present, and there were strange trippings on the " light fantastic toe" by the negroes and negresses of Sahara, who danced the most approved dances of the tribes of Central Africa to music not known much to cars polite, or to any other ears perhaps. The Aissaona fire-eaters added to the eclat of the business. The Exhibition, as usual, has presented an animated appearance to-day. THE BELGIAN RECEPTION. The Belgian Volunteers this morning proceeded to Wimbledon, of course to receive another enthusi astic reception. This fete may be looked upon as one of the most important in the programme, as the whole of the visitors will be welcomed by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and a brilliant staff, after which there w il l be a general distribu tion ofw welcome medals om e visit to theto E Belgians ,England. d. to commemorate their The quadrangle, Somerset-house, was again the place appointed for the general muster of the Vo lunteers, and prior to the departure the military bands performed a variety of music, which acted as a sort of counterpoise to the unpropitious state of the weather in the early part of the morning, which foreboded a thorough wet day. However, just prior to their departure, the rain ceased, and then again the spirits of those about to take part in the interesting proceedings rose to that state of jovial hilarity which has so distinguished them since their arrival in England. At eleven o'clock the order was given to fall in and shortly afterwards the whole force moved for• ward. The attendance of the public in front of Somerse House was quite as great as yesterday. Every win dow of the houses facing was filled with ccmpany, and the cheering that greeted the head of the Bel gian column as it emerged into the Strand was en thusiastic in the extreme. Hats and handkerchiefs were waved, and every demonstration of goodwill was made by the thousands who had assembled to witness their departure. The Chasseurs marched at the head, followed by the Volunteers, the Artillery, and the Civic Guard, and the scene altogether was one of the most animated description. TILE DEJEU.NER AT THE GUILDHALL. The de:join& given by the Lord Mayor and Cor poration of the City of London to our Belgian visitors involved the solution of a somewhat difficult problem. The accommodation afforded by the Guildhall, ample as it is on ordinary occasions, hardly sufficed for the wants of so numerous a com pany, and as it was found impossible to crowd upwards of 3,000 guests in the great hall, which is barely capable of seating half that number, tables were laid in the vestibule, the Architect's Court, the Town Clerk's Court, the Coopers' Hall, and other parts of the building;, and by dint of a little squeez ing here, and a little management there, the space was so well economised that in the end sufficient room was found for this immense assemblage. The LORD MAYOR, in proposing "The Health of her Majesty the Queen," remarked that the English people were governed by a Queen of whom they were justly proud, and whom they regarded as the model of a constitutional Sovereign. Ile believed that in no company in the world would this toast meet with a more cordial reception than in a com pany composed of Englishmen and Belgians. (Loud cheers.) Second only to their loyalty to their own o nugut, rank. me Belgian people for the Queen of England. (Cheers.) Therefore he asked the assembled company to unite in wishing long life, health, and happiness to her most gracious Majesty the Queen. The toast was received with loud and continued cheers, and when the band in the gallery began to play the English National Anthem, the Belgians took up the air and sang " God save the Queen" with unmistakable enthusiasm. The LORD MAYOR then gave " The Prince and Princess of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family" (Cheers.) The whole of the Royal family of this country were born and bred in England, and the English people regarded them as part of themselves. The Prince of Wales was beloved for his uniform urbanity and kindliness of disposition, and his illus trious Princess bad deservedly gained the affections of the English people. (Cheers.) " God bless the Prince of Wales" was then played by the band amid the hearty plaudits of the Belgian volunteers. . . _ The LORD MAYOR said he had now to propose a toast which he was sure would be received by all Englishmen present as heartily as by their Belgian friends. The toast was, " The Health of the King and Queen of the Belgians." (Loud cheers.) In proposing this toast it was impossible to overlook the many amiable qualities of his Majesty King Leopold, or to forget the intimate relationship ex isting between the throne of Belgium and that of England. The toast was received with loud acclamations from , i B meve ra r b y a p nc ar o t n o n. of the and was followed by the The Belgian CHARGE D'AFFAIRES briefly thanked the Lord Mayor and the company on behalf of their Majesties for the manner in which the toast had been received. The LORD MAYOR proposed as the next toast " The Army, Navy, and Volunteers." (Cheers.) The toast was responded to by General the Hon. Sir E. OUST on behalf of . the army, and by Colonel ERSKINE on the part of the Volunteers. The LORD MAYOR next proposed, amid enthu siastic cheers, " The Health of the Garde Civique of Belgium and our other Belgian Visitors." Re membering, as he did, the magnificent, cordial, and almost affectionate reception accorded on previous occasions by the Belgian people to the English Volunteers, he asked his English brethren, in re ceiving this toast, to give the heartiest welcome they were able to their Belgian visitors. (Loud and continued cheering.) Colonel GREGOIRE, the commandant of the Bel gian volunteers, rose amid hearty plaudits to ac knowledge the toast. The f o ll o wing is a translation of his speech, which was d elivere d i n F ren ch :—This splendid and cordial greet i ng touc h es us deeply, and I am happy to be pe rm i tted on t h e p ar t of my coin panions in arms to express to you our liveliest grati tude for the very fri en dl y and generou s sentiments which have animated you i n prepar i ng for us such a truly fraternal rec e pti on. (Cheers .) We indeed rejoice to meet you, an d our j oy i s heightened by the fact that we now step upon the ground of your great free, brave old England. (Loud cheers.) I thank you, my Lord Mayor and gentlemen, for the great honour the corporation and the city of Lon don have done to our Sovereign, Leopold the Second, and the Belgian people. (Enthusiastic cheering.) Colonel Gregoire concluded by proposing the health of the Lord Mayor. (Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR b r i e fl y res ponded, and then proposed " The Mu n i c piali t i es o f *Belgium." The toast was acknowledged by the Burgomaster of Ostend. TREASURE TROVE.--A large number of bronze coins of 1190 (Richard I.) have been dug up in earthen jars by navvies engaged in the sewer works at Charlton, sent. A large number of the coins have been purchased from the navvies by Colonel Atchison, of 80, Victoria-road, Charlton, and will be forw ar d e d t o Government as trea sure trove. A large numb er o f s h e lls have been dug up, showing that Charlton, whi c h i s s it ua ted on au eminence a couple of miles from the Thames, was at one time under water.

The Pontifical Bill for the convocation of the (Ecumenical Council will, it is expected, be issued on the Bth December next. The Council will open one year subsequently, on the Bth December, 1868, the anniversary of the festival of the Immaculate Conception. The beatification took place yesterday, according to the usual ritual, but without great pomp. The basilica of the Vatican was nearly empty. His .oliness and the Bishops were not present at the ceremony, but visited St. Peter's after vespers. Very few prelates now remain in Rome. Desertions from the Antibes Legion still continue to be very numerous. Last winter this corps, after great efforts, was brought to an effective of 1,800 men. At present it is only about 900 strong, ITALY. FLORENCE, July 13. In yesterday's sitting of the Italian Parliament, Signor Lanza and Visconti Venosta refuted the assertions made by Signor Mancini yesterday. Signor Venosta explained the object of the Sep tember Convention. Signor Mancini, in reply, maintained that the Convention was prejudicial to Italy. Signor Crispi spoke in favour of the Church Property Bill. Signor Londai opposed it. P RUSSIA. BERLIN, July 13.

EARTHQUAKE IN JAVA. POINT DE GALLE, June 30. A terrible earthquake has occurred at Bjokja, Java. Numerous lives were lost. 'arrington. WARRINGTON, Friday Evening. The inquests on the bodies of Mr. James Gill, of Birmingham, Mr. James Partridge, of Kirkdale, Miss Mary Elizabeth Adcock, of Liverpool, Mr. Edmund Gibson, of Llantrissant, and Mrs. Sarah Cocking, of East Retford, the five persons who were killed in the late collision on :the London and North-Western Railway, at Walton Junction, near Warrington, which were adjourned from Friday last, were resumed this morning at Latchford, by Mr. James Dunstan, the coroner. Mr. Roberts, from the office of Mr. Blenkinsop, solicitors to the company, accompanied by Mr. Mason, assistant general manager, and other offi cials, again represented the company. Mr. Moore, of Warrington, appeared on behalf of the friends of Mr. Thomas Gill. Col. YoHand, the inspector from the Board of Trade, said they had examined the spot at Walton Junction, where the collision took place. He did not find the junction quite in the same state as it was when it was opened in 1856 as regards the Arpley Branch. The indicator to show the position of the points, whether close to the main line or the Cheshire Junction line, had been taken away, and the points moved stiffly. They were designed to be self-acting, standing open to the main line, and the two indicators were put up to enable the pointsmen to see whether they closed properly at the two junctions. He did not consider, when the line was opened, and does not now, that the pointsman could see if the points were open about three-eighths of an inch or not—they being situated at such a distance from the box. It was the object of placing indicators to enable him to see, clearly and distinctly, whether they were open or not. He should explain to the jury that the junction was felt to be so dangerous by the London and North-Western Railway Company, and by the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction Railway Company, that after the regulations of the Board of Trade for the working of the points, drawn up by him at their request, had been agreed to by them in 1855-6, they both repudiated their engage ments —one company because there were not three double semaphore posts with arms at the junction instead of two, and the other because the points were at such a distance from the signal box. The junction, as it was opened, he was responsible for, and he believed it was constructed in the manner most conducive to the public safety then known. In 1862 a collision between two goods trains oc curred at that junction, not owing to the want of a third double semaphore signal, nor to the distance at which the points are worked from the box. Two men were injured in that collision, one of whom died from the injuries received. The circumstances attending the collision were inquired into by one of his colleagues, Capt. Tyler. He was not present ai the inquiry. The inquiries made by the Board o Trade, he might explain, were only permissive in quiries. 11e had the original report made by Capt. Tyler. It recommended certain things to be done at Walton Junction to make it more safe, and to bring the knowledge obtained between 1855 and 1862 to bear at the junction. There were one or two minor points, not of importance. Capt. Tyler added :—" Under these circumstances it is now de sirable, with a view to the future safety of the traffic, that extra siding accommodation should be laid on between the Arpley Branch and the London and North-Western line towards Warrington ; that a third semaphore post with two arms on it should be erected at the junction cabin ; and that the most improved apparatus should be applied for working the points and signals in connexion with one another. The points should be free to move when the sig nals are all at ' danger ;' the signalman should be unable to lower his signal for a train to pass until he had first set his points right for that train. After having lowered his signals for a train to pass, he should not be able to turn his points in the wrour , direction for the train, so as to cause a collisio n ; and he should not be able to make any mistake in the working of the signals that could lead to a col lision between any two trains. These improvements will necessarily lead to some alterations in the cabin itself, and the opportunity will be afforded, in car rying them out, of giving the signalman larger win dows. that ho 111 AV hnVP fl 110 Hr. • V; OW i.i tay.i - Any a; rection, and providing him with telegraph instru ments and telegraphic communication, by means of which he may, at least, be warned of the approach of the trains upon the different lines which are under his control. This being an arduous and important post, and one at which considerable complication and a very heavy traffic over two junctions are combined I think it would be wise to employ three men to do the duty, and thus to reduce the periods of labour from 12 to 8 hours for each map." He was not aware how it happened that these recommendations had not been attended to, because he generally found the London and North-Western Company were prompt to carry out any recommendation made by the inspectors for the Board of Trade. He thought that had they been carried out a collision of the kind which happened on June 29 could not have oc curred without disobedience of signals on the part of the engine-driver of the passenger-train. He should add that the Board of Trade had no power to order anything of the kind to be done after the opening of a new line or junction. Previously to a new line being opened they can compel a company to carry out the recommendations of their inspectors. The junction has been altered for the worse since it was originally opened, in the removal of the indica tors and the points becoming stiff. By theJury—He did not think the working of these levers was too much for one man, as he knew a station where 67 levers were worked by one man ; but there he could not make a mistake dangerous to the safety of the pub lic. He could not reverse his signals so that two trains could come into collision. There were several inventors who constructed signals on such a principle that they could not be lowered without the points being set right first, and any one would have pre vented the occurrence of the collision, except in case of disobedience of signals on the part of the engine driver. He had no doubt there was a mistake on the part of the pointsman, but he thought no human being with so many trains passing him would be free from mistake. Ile knew of one general manager of an important railway who objects to these signals, but he had been compelled to use them at new junc tions. The Board of Trade could compel the adop tion of anything considered necessary before the opening of new lines and junctions, but not after wards. A. copy of Captain Tyler's report was sent to the London and North Western Railway Company, but not to the Great Western Railway Company. He thought it would be better to supply it to both companies in a case of a junction between two com panies. In the case of a properly protected junction a collision could not occur from a signalman neglect nor even from his falling down in a fit. It is not possible to have two signals off, which if obeyed would lead to a collision. That is one principle in a properly protected junction ; the other is that the signals cannot be lowered without the points being set right. The points at Walton Junction are very hard to move in one direction, and do not move easily in the other. The London and North-Western Railway Company objected to the working of the points when the junction was opened on account of their distance from the signal-box, but he thought the objection arose from a wanted knowledge on the part of their officials. Ile did not think the collision was occasioned by any defect in the points. IF thought the indicators ought to have been replaces unless- the signal arrangements were entirely se, aside and Captain Tyler's recommendations carried out. The Coroner then addressed the jury, who even tually entered a verdict of " Manslaughter" again: John Rowson, the pointsman ; at the same time blaming the London and North Western Railway for no't carrying out Capt. Tyler's recommendations in 1862. Rowson was admitted to bail--himself in £2OO, and two sureties in £lOO each.

The annual fête held in aid of the funds of the Dramatic College at the Crystal Palace took place to-day, and despite the threatening state of the weather the attractions drew a very large number of visitors to Sydenham. A 3 the weather cleared up the company arrived in large numbers, and at present there is no reason to doubt but that the receipts will quite equal those of former years. The great attractions were perhaps more numerous than usual. Mr. J. L. Toole and Mr. Paul Bedford secured extensive patronage for their Japanese troupe, and Mrs. Howard Paul's pavilion was as pretty and original as it has invariably been. There were " The White Lilies of the Prairie," the living marionettes, Mdlle. G ertrude's performing dogs, the gipsy tent, the fairy post-office, the performing Russian guinea pigs, the Royal Punch and Judy, and last, but not least, the original Aunt Sallys. In fact, everything that art could imagine or achieve was done to induce a rapid flow of the circulating medium, and where art failed nature conquered, for the smiles of the fair ladies who offered the most piquant souvenirs of the fete for sale made non-purchasing an impossi bility. The publication of the names of the cele brities present would occupy too much space, so we must content ourselves by saying that every person of note in the theatrical profession was present.
