At any rate no one can accuse the members of the Committee of inertness or inattention in pursu. ing their work of discussing the Reform Bill. The, excitement of animated debating is over, and the interest of novelty has passed, but the importance of giving strict attention to the subject is not over, nor has the necessity for using diligence gone by. The public ought to appreciate this conduct, be cause it is a great tax to come day after day to the consideration of the same heavy subject, and the same intricate matters. Yesterday great progress was made ; the week has closed in well. The discussion of yesterday, indeed, has reached to within three of the remaining clauses of the bill, so that they may be said fairly to sight land in the prosecution of their arduous task. Mr. GLADSTONE made a sug- gestion to Mr. DISRAELI which the right hon. gen tleman characterised as unreasonable, but he sub- sequently agreed to it; it was to the effect that the Boundary Commission clause should be postponed in order that time might be given for its considera tion ; be did so, he said, with the object of avoiding controversy ; and, besides, he thought it would save time in the end by avoiding discussion for the present, which might occupy some time, if taken immediately after the printing of the clause. Per haps, on the whole, this is as well, to prevent disap- pointment. Mr. BRIGHT made a most unnecessary interruption by delivering a very intemperate speech, which it is difficult to account for unless he was disappointed at not finding his name put upon the list of Boundary Commissioners. He began by stating that there was not a single name on the commission which represented in any degree the party which had been most prominent in urging the question of Reform. By " urging," it is to be pre sumed, the hon. member meant that large section of politicians who content themselves by declaiming against existing things without assisting any one who really desires to make a change. "It is an unheard• of proposition," says the honour member, " that there should not be on the commission a single name representing this section." Mr. BRIGHT predicts that the consequence of no extreme Radicals being put upon the Commission will be that great discoptent will be felt, and that hereafter the decision of the said Commission will be called in question by the boroughs affected. This is certainly a serious threat, but at the same time the progress of busi ness will be greatly retarded by the introduction of some captious critics, who will disagree for the sake of objecting, and confuse themselves and others by aiming at the unattainable. Mr. DISRAELI made the very just remark that he had hoped, since the clause was postponed, that the discussion upon it might also be postponed. The right hon. gentleman explained that it was impos sible to satisfy the hon. member for Birmingham, because they started from different principles, as he wished to have men of " decided political opinions" upon the commission. We agree with Mr. Dis- RAELI in the advisability of excluding those of extreme opinions, because such are not so likely to arrive at a definite conclusion easily or readily. The right hon. gentleman went over all the names, and showed that there was much to be said in favour of their selection. Mr. BRIGHT is not one of those who are convinced against their will, because he is never convinced at all ; he actually spoke again after the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and went over the names again ; he evidently was desirous of emulating the king celebrated by the poet—. "And thrice he vanquished all his foes, And thrice he slew the slain." It is really too bad to take up the time of the House in this frivolous manner, but some people must have their say, whoever else is prevented from doing so, and at whatever cost to public business. Lord AMBERLEY proposed an amendment in the Clause, that a change from one office to another should not necessitate the vacation of the seat in Parliament. The noble lord's proposal was to the effect that there should be no occasion to resign the seat after taking office, and this seems a very wise proviso, became the present practice entails a waste of time, very often too in the midst of a busy session, and we have no doubt that the custom will soon be done away with. For the present, however, some objections seem to be raised, and Mr. DisnAELI and Mr. GLADSTONE did not think it advisable ; hence it was withdrawn. A majority of fifty-four de cided in favour of carrying the clause relating to the corrupt payment of rates, which subjects those thus offending to the penalties of bribery. This is as well, because too mueh stress cannot be laid upon these matters, however technical they may appear at first sight. On the whole, there seems a good deal to show for yesterday's work, and it is to be hoped that next week the Committee will continue with unabated zeal and energy in the furtherance of this important work. As time goes on the task becomes more difficult if anything, be cause hon. members are weary and anxious, and likely to be more doubtful as the chances before them are becoming fewer and fewer in the way of effecting a change. The arrival of the Scotia, from New York on the 12th inst., brings us the same story of disputes and contentions between the civil and military autho rities. The difficulties arising from the conflict of authority are not likely to be easily settled. The people chafe under military government, and the civil rulers especially, who have been displaced to make room for generals and their nominees of va rious degree, who make better or worse use of their powers, are disinclined to submit to their successful rivals. A sample of this sort of entanglement has just occurred in Louisiana, where Governor WELLS, having refused to surrender the archives of the State to Mr. FLANDERS, General SHERIDAN sent his staff-officer with instructions forcibly to eject Governor WELLS. Upon this Governor WELLS surrendered his office under protest, and Mr. FLANDERS assumed the duties of Governor. General SHERIDAN is one of the most arbitrary and imperative of the dominant Generals, and conducts matters after a fashion which must be very accept able to the Radicals and their leaders. The Texas Legislature abolished two judicial districts, the judges of which were strong Union men. General SIIERIDAN thereupon nullified the act, and rein. stated the judges. From all parts of the South comes the same story of displacement and change, carried, indeed, to so great an extent that a Cabinet Council was reported to be held specially to con sider the removal of Southern civil officers, and the outrages of BnowNLow's militia in Tennessee. It can scarcely be supposed that such treatment as this can tend to tranquillise the Southern States, to re store confidence, or to give stability to business. The white holders of municipal offices at Mobile having declined reappointment, General SWAYNE has direeted the negroes to assume the offices—with THE SUS, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 22, 1867. what result remains to be seen. General GRIFFIN hag removed the Galveston police, on the ground of thei .r hostility to the freedmen, and has appointed a. mew police partly formed of negroes. These vio lent changes are not likely, we fear, to produce a better feeling between blacks and whites, but the contrary, and will tend to retard rather than ad vance that social justice towards the negro which ; all must wish to see. j The Emperor of AUSTRIA, having determined upon coming to an amicable arrangement with his Ipeople, is carrying out the programme of reconcilia tion in right royal style. So far from measuring :i his words or his acts by rigid theories of political ii right he is playing a truly kingly part, and blotting out from his subjects' memory all harsh 11CSS or oppression of the past. The gift of the King of HUNGARY and his Royal consort for the benefit of the disabled llonveds and their families completely won the hearts of the Hungarians, as showing how willing FRANCIS JOSEPH was to recognise the patriotic enthusiasm , which had animated men whose exertions had been employed against himself. The amnesty for political offenders just announced is hardly less valuable, a 9 showing the sincerity of the Imperial goodwill, while its consequences are likely to be more important. At the sitting of the Lower House of the Reichsrath on Thursday, the Minister of Jus tice communicated to the House the proclamation determined upon by the EMPEROR, in virtue of which all persons sentenced for political offences, since March 13, 1848, should be fully amnestied. The amnesty also includes all persons guilty of political offences between that date and the amnesty of last December, who were absent from the Imperial dominions. They are now permitted free. return, without any " disadvantageous legal results." KOSSUTH himself may walk the streets of Pesth or 1' ienna harmless, and we apprehend that FRANCIS JOSEPH will find his sturdy patriotism much less formidable than when his name was never whispered within reach of courtly ears. The counsels of Baron von BEUST have no doubt been enlightened and conciliatory, but we may give the head of the House of Hapsburg credit for having learned something from the uses of adversity. It is possible that his reverses in the German war may prove in the end to have been most fortu nate for him, if they have been instrumental in assisting him to break through the chains of habit and prejudice and obsolete pride, to endeavour to understand his subjects and their wishes and aspi rations, to inaugurate a newer and wiser policy towards the varied peoples who own him as ruler. The disappointments and mortifications which cost him so much will prove the greatest blessings of his reign, just as BISMARCK'S successes may end by producing discomfiture and loss to Prussia and her King. Preuilly, not far from Tours, by the sudden destruc tion of part of its ancient and beautiful church. ' Half of the tower crumbled down, and the ruins in falling did great damage to the chapel, Saint Melaine. This church is one of the most remarkable of the Roman epoch, and is classed as an interesting historical monument. The catastrophe occurred about nine o'clock in the evening, and numbers of persons were about to enter it, as many children were to receive their first communion. The noise of the falling stones, however, was like that of thunder, and the result was that no one went into the church. If the occurrence had taken place only a quarter of an hour later many persons must have been killed. The Oriental portion of the park at the Exhibi tion for the last two or three evenings has presented a striking and beautiful aspect, all the Egyptian buildings being splendidly illuminated. The cara vanserai is one blaze of light, and at the entrance of the avenue leading to the Egyptian temple, in dicated by a gigantic Sphyux, the arms and the escutcheon of the Viceroy were resplendent with gas, and the vivid light has a charming effect. The Gazette des Hopitaux says that the cholera, after making great ravages i n Britanny, where it still prevails to a small extent, has appeared in several places on the banks of the Mediterranean, in Calabria, at Palermo, and in the lonian Islands. A large portion of the Illoniteur is again occupied with the simple mention of places from whence addresses of congratulation have been sent to the Emperor on his escape from the danger of the assassin's attempt in the Bois de Boulogne. Out of evil comes good, and this atrocious act has given additional proof of the devotion and affection of the French people to the Monarch, whose policy elicits " golden opinions" from all his subjects, whenever opportunity arises. The history of France does not afford an example of so popular a ruler. The project of law in approval of the convention relative to the Victor Emmanuel Railway has been agreed to by the Legislative Body by a majority of 170 against 46. In spite of the recent unseasonable weather the accounts front the south of France state that the corn is so far advanced in ripeness that in some places it will be ready for cutting in a few days. Fruit has been very cheap and abundant in Paris for several days past. Fine large strawberries have cqie,ua;ar quality, y n r, d i pant e a h an e r dh r a i gl e fo g pne h dn a , i v lby e n at b n e nd e f nnansuorl pennysd been sold at 2d. the pound, s pl en did cherries at the e i n n o t the the e f 3 s fi a t i n s e t e e - t r s a p t o r e f Found. Meat and poultry, however, are still un usually dear. Fish is at so high a price that the sale of it does not proceed very swimmingly. LATEST INTELLIGEN6II. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) AMERICA.

PARIS, Friday Evening. The Moniteur of this morning states that the Emperor and Empress yesterday received his High- ness the Duke of Saxe-Coburg Gotha, who is travelling privately. Their Majesties also received Prince Albert, Prince Royal of Saxony, and the Princess Caroline, Princess Royal of Saxony They also come to Paris incoguito. On the occasion of the visit of the Emperor of Russia to Berlin, on his return, King William, on Monday last, passed in review the troops of the Guard, the Regiment of Cuirassiers of Branden burg, which still has the name of the late Emperor Nicholas, and the Regiment of Uhlans, which bears the same of the Emperor Alexander. In the even- ing the Emperor left Berlin for Warsaw. The Moniteur has the following announcement : —" At the departure of our mail from South America, the epidemic cholera was sensibly dimin ishing at Buenos Ayres and in the ports of the Parana, and consequently the Provisional Govern ment had just revoked by a decree of the 13th of May that of the 23d of April, which placed all the ports of the republic in absolute interdiction with Buenos Ayres and the:coasts of the Parana, but at the same time enforcing a quarantine of several days. The last news from the theatre of war in Paraguay does not give an account of fresh mili tary movements. The bombardment of Curupaity was proceeding vigorously, in spite of the cholera. It was thought at Montevideo that Marshal Caxias, the Commander-in-Chief of the allied • forces, in- tended to delay any decisive action until the spring and the troops were making arrangements for the occupation of their winter quarters. The Cham- bers of Brazil were opened on the 22d of May by the Emperor Don Pedro in person, in a speech in which he promised many important reforms. His Excellency Djemil Pacha, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of his Majesty the Sultan, has bad the honour of being received by the Emperor to introduce to him his Excellency Kiamil Bey, Grand Master of the Ceremonies to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkey. Aide -de - Camp General Hassam Ali Khan, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of H.M. the Schah of Persia, has also had the honour of being received by the Emperor to remit to his Majesty the letters which put an end to his mission. Hassan Ali Khan presented to the Emperor General Mirza-Youssef Khan, who will remain in Paris as charge d'affaires of Persia. The Emperor has paid a visit to the Viceroy o Egypt at the Pavilion de Marsan at the Tuileries immediately after which His Highness went to the Palace of St. Cloud to offer his homage to the or w ed h , ose rec h e e i a v l e t strength are completely restored , Imperial Prince. received his and august visitor very affably and warmly, and thanked him for his gracious attention. As to illustrious visitors, " the cry is still they come." The Sultan of Turkey will be here by the end of the month. Some magnificent horses belonging to the Emperor of Austria have pre ceded his Majesty, and are on their way to Paris from Nancy in the care of his grooms. The Liberte asserts positively that Mr. Johnson, the President of the United States, means to come and see the Exhibition in July, and that he will be accompanied by Mr. Seward. Another paper asserts that Juarez is coming all the way from Mexico. The Sultan, Abdul Aziz the First, was born on the 9th of February, 1830, and is conse quently 37. He will be accompanied to Paris by his two nephews, sons of the late Abdul Medjid, and his own son. Eehenac Murad Effendi, the elder of his nephews, who was born on the 21st of September, 1810, is the heir to the throne, the succession to the throne in Turkey being the right, not of the eldest son, but of the eldest member of the Imperial family. Three Arabian horses will arrive with the illustrious strangers for their especial use during their stay in Paris. The Emperor AlexAnder had a favourite dog, called My Lord, which he was desirous to bring with him to Paris, but was dissuaded from doing so. This dog always slept in the room next to the Emperor, and used to accompany him in his walks and drives. When the Emperor left home the dog pined and fretted and refused food, and in two or three days a telegram was despatched to the Em peror at Paris to inform him that it was dead, which news very much grieved and affected his Majesty. In Russia there is a tradition that when a person has a favourite dog which dies it is an augury of some misfortune, and the death of My Lord has by some been considered as a prognostic of the attempt in the Bois de Boulogne, which almost immediately fol!owed that occurrence. To-day at 10.20 evening, according to the almanack, summer commences, but as a matter of f_►ct the nights of late have been as chilly as is usual in March and April. To-day a cold wind has pre vailed, and it has been dry, but the sun has only been seen at intervals. Alarm has been caused at the small town of PORTUGAL. LISBON, June 22. In yesterday's sitting of the Chamber of Depu ties the bill for the reform of the penal code and the abolition of capital punishment was passed with only two dissentient votes. FRANCE.

The Scotsman tells a singular story under the heading of " Extraordinary Case of Demoniacal Possession in a Free Church." The " case" oc curred in the Chalmers Memorial Church, Grange, on Sunday last. Dr. Bonar, the minister, took for the subject of his afternoon discourse the unclean spirits described in the 12th chapter of St. Matthew. The afternoon was very warm, and in the course of the service a number of people became sick and fainted. One girl, in attempting to leave the church while the chapter was being read, fell in a fainting fit, and was carried into the vestry. The occurrence caused some hubbub among the congre gation, and several of the members, including Dr. Duncan, Professor of Hebrew, left their scats to wait upon the poor girl. In the course of a few minutes, and while a hymn was being given out, Dr. Duncan came out from the vestry and asked in a loud voice if there was a medical gentleman pre- sent. A gentleman who was understood to be a doctor thereupon rose and proceeded to the vestry. Certain members of the congregation afterwards began to move to and fro in order to make inquiries respecting the sufferer, and not a few left the church altogether. Still the service proceeded in as orderly a manner as was pos sible amid such uneasiness and excitement, and Dr. Bonar in due course of time began to preach on the devils. When the rev. gentleman was about half way through his sermon--he had not reached the " application"—a gentleman seated in the centre of the church became ill, and apparently. fainted. Some appearance of confusion ensued, but Dr. Bonar called out t 3 the people to be calm, and a number of them, though in a state of great alarm, at once resumed their seats. Still persons continued to pass out of the church, and the whole congregation were restless and inattentive. Dr. Duncan then stepped up to the pulpit and had some private conversation with Dr. Bonar, who, after a few moments' pause, closed the book before him, and, addressing the congregation, said it would perhaps be better to say nothing more, but simply engage in prayer. It was perhaps quite true, he continued, as Dr. Duncan had suggested, that Satan was there tempting them with these interruptions, and that he was angry at being spoken against. The rev. gentleman then engaged in prayer, and after ho had finished a hymn was given out and sung. While the verses were being read out, Dr. Duncan ascended the pulpit unnoticed by Dr. Bonar, and the latter gentleman on raising his head from the desk and looking around appeared for the moment to be greatly startled at seeing a personage so near to him. The object of the learned professor in going into the pulpit was to address the congregation, and having obtained leave from Dr. Bonar to speak, he rose and ejaculated a few thoughts on the passage of Scrip ture respecting the security with which a strong man armed can keep his house in peace. In the middle of his oration the learned professor had a thought about Satan—or "Sattan," as he called his Satanic Majesty, exclaiming, with great vehemence, in re ference to what had taken place among the congre gation, that "it was Sattan, brethren, Sattan— Sattan." Ile also wished to notice something said by the Apostle Paul to the Gentiles ; but, failing to remember the particular passage, he had to announce that his memory did not serve him to tell what the Apostle said to the Gentiles. The benediction was then pronounced, and the congregation dismissed. As the people were about to leave the church Dr. Duncan again rose in the pulpit, and briefly repeated his former assurance, that it was " Sattan, brethren, Sattan—Sattan." A suggestion was made that the enemy should be fought out, in the belief that if re sisted he would flee ; but the terror caused by his warm and unprecedented " manifestation" was too great to be hurriedly shaken off, and the congre gration dispersed. The death is announced of the Dowager Lady Knowles, at the ago of 85. Her ladyship was the widow of the late Admiral Sir Charles Henry Knowles, Bart., G.C.B , and mother of the present baronet, Sir Francis Knowles, barrister-at-law. The family is descended from Sir Thomas Knowles, who followed the standard of Richard I. into the Holy Land, and entered the breach at Jerusalem, next after the renowned Godfrey do Bouillon. King Richard granted to him, in recognition of his ser - vices, the arms which are F till born by the family. The first baronet, Sir Charles Knowles, was a distinguished admiral in the British Navy, and chief president of the Russian Admiralty, with a seat at the Imperial council board.

STATE OP TRADE. MANCHESTER, J une 21. —ln be made.—ln shippi ng yarns we have had a very q uiet market to - day, and to make sales spinners have found that th ey must ta k e lower prices. S om e of the leadi ng sellers say there are orders in the market, and think that a trifling conc ession for sales mi g h t Prices are rather weaker, and spinners, who had last week anticipated an improvement, are a good deal disappointed. We have had a very quiet market for all kinds of home-trade yarn, and most num bers are a shade easier in price. The cloth market has quite disappointed the hopes of manufacturers, who held back in the expecta tion of an improvement after the holydays. The cheerful feeling which prevailed has gradually dis appeared this week, and we have bad less and less disposition among buyers to operate. With the exception of some business in the better qualities of shirtings for China, the market is quiet, and lower prices have been offering and accepted for cloth. LEICESTER, 21st.—There has been a good busi ness done during the past week. In wools, however, there has been next to no demand from the manu facturing districts, so that trade is very flat in this department. A fair quantity of new clip wool is being bought up by the staplers, but a great many growers seem to be holding back until the fair, which takes place next week, and when it is expected, on knowing the prices, they will be free sellers. So far as wool has come to hand, it is in very fair condition, but at present there is no im portant alteration in price. There is every appear ance of a great quantity of wool being in the market, so that the prospect is a flat one. A rather better trade prevails for cotton yarns ; still it is far from satisfactory, the market being noted by an ab sence of spirit. Cottons are easier. Worsted yarns being very quiet, makes prices not quotable. Silks unchanged. The worsted yarn spinning trade is steady, showing an improvement week by week, but not equal to previo us seaso ns, Materials firm, if any thing a shade against the buyer. There is a decided improvement in the demand for cotton plain hosiery, in consequence of London houses who have nearly finished stock-taking placing good orders for delivery next month. The Hinckley trade con tinues very active in all its branches. There is no alteration in the demand for lambswool goods. The supply of orders for all descriptions of elastic webs is short, and trade generally is quiet. Materials still show an upward tendency. The boot and shoe trade remains brisk as far as the home market is concerned, but the shipping is slack. If any diffi culty is experienced it is in the shortness of hands, more particularly mac hine women. A COMPLEMENT TO LA.MBETII.—The walls Of Lambeth are now covered with placards showing that it is intended to nominate Mr. Beales, the Reform League agi tator and ex-revising barrister, at the next election. He is recommended as being " the right man iu the right place." The Prince of Wales and the Belgian Visit. Yesterday afternoon his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, as president of the Central Belgian Reception Committee, presided at a crowded gene ral meeting held at Willis's-rooms, King-street, St. James's, for the purpose of receiving a report as to the progress of the fund and the organisation for the reception of the Belgians on their arrival next month in England. The Prince of Wales, who was accompanied by the Belgian minister, M. Van de Weyer, entered the room about 2.30 p.m., and was at once installed in the post of president by Colonel Loyd Lindsay, who also accompanied his Royal ighness. Mr. COCKCRAFT having retyl the minutes of the previous meeting, llis Royal Highness the PRESIDENT, who, on rising, was received with applause, said—ln open ing the proceedings of to-day, I beg to say that I have great pleasure in coming here to take the chair. When I heard it was settled that the Belgian volun teers would be invited to this country, I, by the de sire of Col. Lindsay, with great pleasure accepted the post of president, or rather honorary president, for, having many other duties to perform, I natu rally did not want to accept the post of president without being able to perform the duty of that post regularly. I may say, however, that I shall be always happy to reader any assistance in my power. (Hear.) After the enthusiastic reception of the English volunteers by his Majesty the King of Bel gium, and the Belgian volunteers and people, I am sure we shall return the compliment by inviting them here this year, and I am confident that all the arrangements will be such as to give them great pleasure. There is a concert, a ball, and also a luncheon by the Lord Mayor ; and I have the plea sure to state that our government has decided on sending a troopship, so as to bring over those mem bers of the Belgian volunteers who intend coming entirely free of expense. _ The PRINCE, having read the list of prizes to be offered to the Belgians, said the money promis ed amounted to £5,500, of which 0,300 had been re ceived, leaving £2,200 still to be received. llis Royal Highness resumed his seat amidst loud ap plause. M. VAN DE WEYER, Belgian Minister, then said —Your Royal Highness and Gentlemen,-1 was perfectly convinced beforehand that the measures that would be taken by this committee would be such that my countrymen will return home agree-. ably convinced of the friendly feeling with which they will have been received. I know this country so well that I have not had a doubt on the subject. Since your royal highness has come forward, I am equally convinced that that act of condescension on the part of your royal highness will be deeply felt and gratefully received in Bel gium. (Cheers.) Colonel LOYD LINDSAY said that since the last time he met the committee matters had transpired which it was his duty to report. He had paid a visit to Brussels, and had the honour of seeing his Majesty the King, who expressed himself in those kind terms that he always used towards the English people—(cheers)—and said it would give him great pleasure to be among his country men over here, but the duties of his Parliament, which opened on July 1, and his army, which en camped in the same month, would render it ex tremely difficult for him to come. He, however, did not wish it to be understood that he would not come. (Cheers.) He would use every endeavour to be present. He (Col. Lindsay) was then called on to receive deputations from many of the principal towns in Belgium, and to them he detailed all the proceedings of the committee, telling them what was prepared for them—that they would be expected on the 11th of July—that her Majesty's Minis ter, the First Lord of the Admiralty, had kindly consented to send one of her Majesty's finest transports to fetch the Belgians from a place 22 miles below Antwerp, and convey them to Graves end; that the journey would occupy 12 hours, and that during the whole of that period they would l.e entertained at the cost of a grant from the Treasury. (Cheers.) The transport would arrive at Gravesend about noon, where they would be met by the Woolwich Company, who had very handsomely undertaken, at a nominal charge (to satisfy the shareholders) to land their force at Westminster. On the following day (the 12th) the City authorities would entertain the entire force at a banquet at the Guildhall. By permission of her Majesty the Queen they wo u ld su b sequ ently visit Windsor Castle and other places of public in terest. They would also be invited to a grand ball and concert at the Agricultural-hall. He had not been able to ascertain as yet the exact number of visitors they might expect. The great embarrass ment the committee had to contend with was to select the entertainments from the large number offered. They had no doubt seen by the daily papers that the Duke of Devonshire had invited the Belgians to Chatsworth. The distance to there was something like 200 miles, and as it would be utterly impossible to perform the journey there and back in one day, the invitation had to be declined. The naval review, which every man who was aware of the naval greatness of England would wish the Belgians to have an opportunity of seeing, could not be included in the programme, as he understood from the Admi ralty that there was some doubt as to its taking place at the time mentioned, and the day had there fore been appropriated to something else. There were invitations from Woolwich—from his own corps— from the First Surrey Rifle Volunteers, and from the 'rower Hamlets ; but they could not be accepted. The authorities of the South Kensington Museum had kindly consented to give a fete at the Museum on the 17th, 18th, or 19th of July, whichever day suited the committee. In conclusion, Colonel Lindsay stated that amongst others he had sent invitations to visit England to the following : the officers of the King's house hold ; Ministers and their secretaries, general as well as private ; burgomasters of the principal towns ; heads of the naval department ; officers of the Belgian regular army ; commander of the Dutch contingent who was at Brussels ; command ing officer of the French Guard; general com manding the French Municipal Guard, and the captains of the steamers that conveyed the British volunteers. (Cheers.) He had omitted to state before that the Thames Boat Clubs had liberally offered to get up a grand fete on the day the Bel gians went to Richmond. (Cheers.) M. VAN DE WEYER said that although he had no right to express an opinion, be begged his royal highness's permission to say that having listened attentively to the statement of Colonel Lindsay, he felt that the arrangements were such as would im press his countrymen with the great hospitality of the English people. (Cheers.) An offer was made on behalf of the mayors of York and Leeds to entertain the Belgians, and defray the expenses of transit. A vote of thanks was passed for the offer, which, however, was declined. In answer to a question, Colonel LINDSAY said the council of the Tir Na tional had been invited to England. On the motion of Colonel LINDSAY, a vote of thanks was passed to the Prince of Wales, who then retired amidst applause. Colonel LINDSAY took the chair during the tran saction of the remainder of the business. After a lengthened debate,an executive committee consisting of 15 members (inclusive of the present executive) was appointed to control the expenditure of the money, and report to the general committee. Five mem bers to form a quorum. The following are the names of the gentlemen elected to make up the number of 15 :—Colonel M‘Leod, Lord Bury, the Duke of Grafton, Colonel Gregory, Lord Paulet, Colonel Warde, Sir Benjamin Phillips, the Earl of Londesborough, the Duke of Manchester, and Mr. Graves, M.P. The election of this committee concluded the busi ness of the meeting. The Marquis of Exeter (the Captain of the Hon. Corps of Geutlemeu-at-:.kruvi) awl the Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot dined with the lion. Corps of Gentlemen-at Arms at their mess in St. James's Palaee last evening.

HARRIS, at the commencement of t he proceedings, rose to propose the following tons, pursuant to notice he had given to that his effect :—" That an address be presented to Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia, express ing the horror and indignation f e lt by th i s court at the recent attempt upon his life, and congratulating him upon his providential escape."
