Lord Dun v had a proud task to perform last night in moving the second reading of the Reform Bill in the House of Lords. Indeed the noble lord, with the leaders of the Op position, found himself in peculiar circumstances, since it is seldom if ever that the same men are engaged twice in a lifetime in the consideration of so important a question as that of Parliamentary Reform. It was curious also to find that the son of the Minister whose Administration carried the first Reform Bill should have been prominent last night in opposing and seeking to hinder the progress of the second Reform measure. A generation haspassed a way since the exciting scenes which took place at the former period, and it is interesting and impor tant to dwell upon the changes which have been wrought in public opinion since that time. Lord DERBY, in a masterly speech, dwelt upon all the topics that were incidental to the subject, and criti cised the various attempts that preceded the present effort in the direction of Parliamentary Reform. Au unusual interest attached itself to the observa tions which the noble lord made upon the circum stances which attended the passing of the first Reform Bill, since he did not speak from hearsay, but had himself taken part in the stirring scenes alluded to. As he remarked, it was difficult for the younger members of that House to realise the state of things at that time, when the voices of Manches ter, Leeds, and Birmingham were unheard ; the question, in fact, involved a social revolution in the country. The excitement which prevailed was of course great ; but, as the noble lord said, it was a somewhat doubtful advantage that enabled the Go vernment to carry their measure chiefly through the popular enthusiasm of the hour. The details of the measure were little cared for so long as the bill itself became law. The great measure of 1832 was carried in the heat of " political passion," and not after the calm and deliberate attention suitable to the introduction of so impor tant a change and so comprehensive a scheme. In referring to this bill as a whole, however, Lord DERBY said that he believed it had " contributed more than any measure of recent times to place the Government and the people of this country upon a footing of amicable relations, and to promote the prosperity and wellbeing of the country at large." Some amusement was created by Lord DERBY'S comments upon the course pursued by one of the champions of Reform, Earl RUSSELL. He began by stating his conviction that it would be desirable to consider the question settled for a long time after the passing of the measure ; because, he added, England could not bear a revolution every quarter of a century ; but, strange to say, he himself did not wait for the period he had prescribed, and abandoned those doctrines which gave him the name of " Finality." The noble lord paid a tribute to the character of the House of Commons as it had existed since 1832 down to the pre sent time, and expressed his conviction that the measure he then proposed would not produce a body of men more intelligent and more devoted to their duty than that which at prseut represented the Administration was then engaged in the prosecu ti an of that earlier measure, which he last night so for cibly alluded to. All who are Liberals at heart will concede the due meed of applause to the Con serva ive Government, which has done so much in this popular cause, and refrain from indulging in those batter taunts and unmeaning comments which some :me so prone to. The House of Lords will speedily settle the matter, and the session of 1567 will long b remembered as a notable one, and will stand out :prominent and conspicuous in Parliamen tary annals as having witnessed the triumph of a great repmentative reform and of political signifi- cance. The sertaacl reading of the Public Parks Bill last evening reopened the discussion about public places of resort which we bad so much of last year. Mr. HARDY, in moving the second reading, entered briefly upon the principal points, and was succeeded by Mr. NEATE in opposition. The chief speaker against the measure was, however, Mr. MILL, who strongly advocated a theory which we suspect he, as well as other people, would be very sorry to find commonly put into practice. However, even his accomplished logic failed to convince the common sense of the House, who finally determined to allow the second reading by a majority of 117. The fact is that the opposition which meets any measure fur the protection of the London parks is founded upon a misapprehension. An attempt to preserve the trees and shrubs is at once construed into an attack upon our national civil liberties! In provincial towns and cities, however, civil rights and liberties are still flourishing, although in almost every in stance in which private munificence has provided a park or pleasure ground for the residents special care has been taken to guard against its use or abuse for the purposes of public discussion. We have no reason to suppose that such Liberal and enlightened donors wish to fetter the minds or the tongues of their fellow-citizens. They know very well that when such meetings begin to be held iu parks and gardens they are anything but select . Probably not one-tenth of the number present at these assemblies know or care anything about the question under dispute,whether it be political or re ligious, and very certainly not one-twentieth of them can hear the speeches which are supposed to be the principal attraction. Does any one believe that the rival factions, who broke each other's heads years ago in the names of the p in ct l P l E yd a e n - d pa u rk Art a ni: few LDI, were to be accepted as the representatives of Catholic faith or of Italian Libe ralism ? The attraction of a temporary excitement, the pleasures of a riot, and with some, at least, the chances of window-breaking and pocket-picking , have in fact a good deal more to do with the advan tages of the Park for a rendezvous than any thing else. It is idle to talk about suppressing the right of public meeting. No Ministry, Whig or Tory, dare attempt it, and very certainly, if they did attempt it, they would fail. But there are plenty other places, both under cover and in open ground; and when hon. members gravely affirm that no other place in London will suit the purpose, it really looks as if they were arguing for the sake of contra diction. We all heard and said a great deal about the immense inconvenience which would be occasioned to the working classes by the re moval of the National Gallery to South Ken sington. South Kensington, it is true, is a mile or so beyond Hyde Park, but the differ ence of distance is hardly so great as to render the one place virtually inaccessible to the residents in Lambeth and lloxton and the Borough, and the other the most convenient spot in the metropolis. It is quite time that people made up their minds on this point, because if Hyde Pork, Regent's Park, and Victoria Park are to be the theatres of discussion, to be thronged and trodden down by the disputants in every local quarrel, it is worse than 'useless to bo at a heavy, continuous expense for ornamenting and cultivating them. If the ground were en closed and left bare and rugged, it would be quite sufficient for a place of crowded and tumultuous a fdu s a s ly e fi T al o i e e ri assemblies. office,i n T hseu summer a g l n u de n rt s ht ie o ra f : L ro o irs n k dn o og n n ' e ' n: w at i nh l no wthr longer oeonp hoisf e children, the invalid, and other habitue's of the parks as they prcai n : k o os w f a easter n e j , n y must andnt t a . k w e e cos t t h n e m aar s c e s l v u e an s ldw o a a ff yy as elsewhereshe t oi o uti f rse i a dlers enjoying themselves in very plea sant and inoffensive fashion, and most cer tainly Sunday afternoon is the very ti me p i r ; eMroa.oci MILL r Lf s Lo rahnaodli holds t isn e a gt c h l a l t e ht r e s iilr o o f st one hi e ea c ns t c s ae and right gu hd t theories ttlolcirl l trespass . the people in the House of Commons. Still, as the noble lord added, it is not suflicimt that the instru ment should work_well : it is necessary that those for whom it does v:otk should be convinced that it works well. In the course of his remarks, Lord DERBY said with perfect truth that the Go vernment of last year would have carried their measure had not Mr. GLADSTONE adopted so dictatorial a manner, and declared that no alteration would be permitted in the plan they proposed. The noble lord's defence of the Conservative party was a very successful one. lie declared that they had never shown any wish to prevent the passing of a Reform Bill, as was evi denced by the second reading of the various bills not being contested by them. A different course was, however, pursued by the other side, for in 1858 Lord RUSSELL had defeated the second read ing of the Bill of that year, and again this session Mr. GLADSTONE had sought to arrest progress at the same stage. Respecting the changes which had taken place in the present scheme the noble lord explained that they were rendered necessary by the earnest desire that pre vailed for the settlement of this great question, and their intention to study the wishes of the house of Commons. Some of the objections which have been made agaipst the measure were ably met by the noble lord, particularly those concerning the borough franchise and the redistribution scheme. lie concluded in a passage of great eloquence by alluding to the amendment of Lord GREY, which he emphatically declared was unne cessary. As he said, it was perfectly true that their lordships' house had a right to criticise the details of the measure, but it was not a suitable mode to adopt to stamp the measure beforehand mith con demnation. "Do not," he added, " stultify your- upon private rroperty, but (awful reflection !. wherever he has a right to be there he has a right to talk politics, whether to one person or to fifty. Mr. MILL is applying the rcductio ad absurdunz to his own theories. Aro there uo considerations of public convenience, of private courtesy, to restrain him ? Is a man to talk politics to 50 listeners in church, in a theatre, at a public dinner, or in a private entertainment. If every individual is to exercise this right without scruple, what a life we should have of it ! Mr. MILL'S own rule may be more safely relied on. In his admirable essay on " Liberty," he says that ev'ry man should be perfectly free to do what he likes, so long as he selves by condemning the measure in the first in stance ; contemptuous treatment such as this is not the treatment which a measure that has received the unanimous assent of the other House hasa right does not interfere with the rights or pleasures of others. The political malcontents hare a perfect right to rehearse their grievances and to devise a means of remedy. They have no right to curtail the enjoyments and interfere with the customary pursuits of those who do not wish to join in their demonstrations. to expect at your lordships' hands. I believe that this is a bill at once large, extensive, and Conservative, and that if it should receive the sanction of your Lordships' House it will effect a settleme s n a t t t is h f a a t ctoy will r for a long time to come be considered of a question which, while it remains b s unsettled, truc t w i o i will be a source of perpetual agitation, an o and impediment an advantageedimenttoallo that raut Lord sef DERBYnllegislati legislation." It was ' spoke first last night, for he evidently is m im pression on the House by h comprehensive discourse that neao brilliantf GREYthose who succeed e d hi m cou ld remove. ° Lord de a tiand n seemed against the chief points of the bill, and ad dressed himself to his task in rather a crotchety spirit. So general was the opinion that prevailed respecting the second reading being carried with no amendment that we should not be surprised if the noble lord should seek to withdraw his amend ment. Whether he do so or not, however, there is no doubt as to the result that will be arrived at. The Government are certain to carry their point by a large majority, if it is pressed to a division ; and the cordial reception given to the noble lord at the head of the Government in his speech last night fully proves that without the numerous remarks subsequently made, we may then, with no undue expectation, consider the question of Reform safe for this year, ant those most interested in the cause will rejoice in such a belief. Th.: dan gers have been great and the work arduous, and only the greatest courage and caution combined have succeeded in achieving the desired end. We have all along watched the course of this bill with the greatest interest, and that interest was increased by the recollection of the part which this journal took in the stirring days of the first Reform Bill. , There is no inconsistency in this Government pass ing this second measure, because the present head of The days of gas monopoly are well nigh at an end, and the companies who have long had matters entirely their own way are henceforth to see their powers considerably curtailed. They have not shown much mercey to the public during their time of un checked authority, and have certainly shown no dis position to lower their prices when their returns enabled them to pay good dividends. There have been numerous complaints too, not altogether with out reason, respecting the quality of the gas sup plied, and in our foggy, smoky London so much of the world's work has to be carried on by gaslight that it becomes a matter of very great importance that we should obtain a good illuminating power. Our City warehouses and offices can only boast in summertime itself of "a dim religious light," and during the short days of autumn and winter, to say nothing of November fogs and January snow storms, a liberal supply of gaslight is one of the first requisites for active business. The select com mittee on the gas supply of the metropolis are sparing neither time nor pains. They held their twenty-second sitting on Saturday, and were en gaged in the discussion of certain clauses, calling Dr. LETSIEBY as a witness on some of the chemical points in dispute. The bill, eTen as it now stands, will be of great service to the public. It appoints a permanent board of three gas referees, who will con trol the mode of testing the gas, and the Board of trade are to have power to revise yearly the scale of illuminating power and price. There will there fore be an cud of the very obnoxious method hitherto pursued of the companies being judge and jury in their own case.

In yesterday's sitting of the Chamber of De puties Signors Pianciani and Curti interrogated the Government respecting the inspection of the Papal troops by a French General, which they declared to be a flagrant violation of the Sep tember Convention ; and on the armaments and enlistments which were being made, it was sup posed, for the invasion of the States of the Church. Signor Rattazzi, in reply, said that he believed the rumours of these armaments were exagge rated, and declared that they were being made by the Romans themselves. Ile ‘lid not consider it necessary for him to contradict the reports that the Italian Government had assented to or indirectly participated in these preparations. He said that those were under a delusion who believed that the Italian Government would tolerate any vio lation of their engagements. The Roman question must be solved by moral means. Explanations had been, he said, demanded of the French Government as to the reported inspection, and which would be contrary both to the spirit and the letter of the con vention, which it would cause to be respected. Sig nor Rattazzi denied that any arrangement had been entered into with France for the restitution of Ro man deserters, and no representations of France had ever stated that a foreign legion should be regarded as an indirect intervention on the part of France. He believed that the French Government, which desired the execution of the convention, would not be the first to violate it. The Viceroy of Egypt is still in Paris, and it is said intends to remain some days. The Viceroy was warmly greeted to-day when he left the Rue Castiglione in his carriage to pay some Tisits and see the lions. The Grand Duke Constantine, brother of the Emperor of Russia, who is coming to Paris by way oflV urtemberg, has left Copenhagen for the pur pose. The last mail from the Antilles has brought the news of the death of M. Lafont de la Verriade, Consul of France at Porto Rico, from a very viru lent fever. M. do Verriade had been long employed at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs before he was made Consul. The journal the Situation mentions some fresh incidents exhibiting the dislik3 and resistance to the Prussian rule. At Wiesbaden the burgomaster, 111. Fischer, has sent in his resignation. At Cassel three members of the Court of Cassation, appointed by the Minister of Justice to form part of the new head Tribunal of Berlin, Messrs. Martin, Rorke, and Baehr, refused to accept the office. This refusal has created a profound impression at Cassel, which i s in perfect accord with the patriotic sentiments by which the population of that country are animated, and it also affords a striking proof of the repulsive impression created by the domination of Prussia. Private accounts from Madrid lead to the belief that insurrectionary movements are extending in Spain, and begin to assume a serious character. M a ny persons arrested at Barcelona, upon the charge of being concerned in revolutionary pro ceedings, have been shot in the most summary manner. The Nottvelliste de Rotten mentions a strange inci dent. It says that great sensation has been excited among the Jewish p opu l at i on b y t h e pu bli ca ti on of a book writt en b y M. 11. V. Cohen, a J ew i s h Rabbi,who, in this work, acknowledges Jesus Christ as the Messiah. The Prussian Ministry displays the utmost inte rest in the result of the coming elections to the Federal Diet. The Gazette de l'Allemayne the Nord makes an energetic appeal to the Conservative party. It says : " The result of the approaching elections to the Reichstag will be of extreme importance. This will explain the unusual activity of the Confederate party in the endeavour to be conquerors in the struggle. There is no doubt that in the first three Legislatures discussions and votes will take place upon organic laws of the greatest gravity, upon the application of which will depend not only the pro gress and direction of internal policy, but even the existence of the Confederation of Northern Ger many. We, therefore, see that the triumph of the Conservative party in the elections would be not only favourable to the inte rests of party, but also of importance to the cause of order of the highest rank. Let it not be forgotten. The Prusso-German power reposes upon the success obtained by our army last year, and it has too many inveterate enemies to be able to do without the support and the efforts of the Con servative party." There has been a mock funeral ceremony at the Clichy prison over the effigy of Madame Contrainte (im;:risonment). A mortuary chapel was erected on the third floor, where the deceased lady was lying in state. Eight hundred persons, each bear ing a lighted wax candle, ascended in hilarious pro cession, and then descended, marched along the passages, and went into the garden, round which they marched to a rose tree, beneath which the h r u s " grave had been dug. The pall was borne by four of the debtors deputed for the purpose, who made themselves as funny as possible. When the remains were being carried to t he g r ave the merry mourners broke out in joyous strains in memory of their " over Laugh away a the ove,7'and sung s Iln g in On reaching chorus the second floor a funeral chant w as sun g to th e tune of " Mal brook"—Marlbroug s'en va - t - en guerre. As soon as rd departed."the remains were lowered all broke out in joyous song, and the chorus " Imprisonment is dead" was joined in by every one. The prison poet wrote an inscription, which was placed over the tomb, calling upon the passers-by to laugh over the ashes of a terrible scourge. The mourners then retired in the same merry mood in which they had come. The stormy aspect of the last few days is lulled for the present, and to-day the atmosphere is more tranquil, but the temperature has been intensely hot and oppressive. The Paris papers are remarkably flat to-day. I made a brief excursion to-day at the Exhibition to Japan. The exhibition of the Government of Taishion de Satsouma is well worth a visit. The varied military costumes of the Japanese aro very characteristic. A prominent object is a tremendous warrior on horseback, who is literally covered with red and black plates. lle has two long daggers on his left side. In his right hand he bears a bow, and on his shoulder he carries a quiver full of arrows. By his side is a Fantassin habited in equally rich style. lie has a long lance in his right hand, and on his left side are a sword and dagger. The orna ments of the costume are very rich. Curiously enough, to-day..-.when the Reform Question is upon the very verge of triumphing in the House of Lords over what we presume will be about the last obstacle in its pathway—to-day (this 23d July) is the anniversary of the notorious Riot in Hyde Park when the railings gave way before the Roughs. The success then achieved was symbolical, of course, on the part of the Rioters, of their wish to get within the pale of the Constitution. And to signalise this their ambition, they toppled down the hard-and-fast line then denying the m access to the Park. A not h er hard-and-fast line of far larger importance has since then given way a s completely under the sheer force of c ircumstances. And access to some thing far better tha n th e greenswar d o f Hyde Park, has been virtually ensured by her Majesty's Go vernment, whereby many hundre d s o f th o usands of hitherto unenfran c hi sed citizens are secu re of being very speedily brou g ht , h onoura bl y an d permanently, in their newly-defined character as electors, within the pale of our •,-, (sim p ly widened) Constitution. . SUDDEN JJEATII OF SIR CHARLES MONCK.—Str Charles Monck, of Belsay Castle, the oldest of the Northumberland county magistrates, he having reached 88 years of age, died s u dd enly at his seat i n Northumberland on Saturday morni ng.

THE SULTAN AND THE CORPORATION OF PARTS- NtouTit.—Tho follow;ng reply was received yesterday evening from the Sultan by the Mayor of Portsmouth: "1 receive your address with sincere pleasure, and I thank you for this mark of a tt ention. To v i s it your country and see the many indic a ti ons of its grea t ness , one element of which is alway s before you, gives me much satisfaction, land I am happy t o re i terate on thi s o ccasion also my hearty sympathy for your noble nation," Signor Laporta said that the Romans had the right to enter their territory, and endeavour to ob tain freedom for their country. Signor Rattazzi, in reply, declared that he would always cause the territory subject to another Go vernment to be respected. The matter then dropped. HUNGARY. PESTII, July 23.

The Union Company's steamship Briton arrived here this morning with dates from the Cape of Good Hope, June 19 ; St. Helena, 28 ; and Ascension, July 2. She brings 108 passengers, several packages of specie, and a large general cargo. Among the passengers are the Lord Bishop of Cape Town and family ; the Hon. P. E. Roubaix, Consul-General for Turkey, on his way to Constantinople ; and Dr. Lawson, the Inspector-General of Itospitals. The Cape Parliament was still in session. A bill introduced by Mr. Solomon to abolish State grants for religious purposes, and also a bill brought forward by Mr. Molteno to adopt the principle of responsible government had both been rejected by 29 against 22 votes. The Government Paper Currency Bill had also been rejected. The Colonial Secretary had made his financial statement, according to which a deficiency of £59,000 was expected for the coming year. This would be nearly covered by an already introduced loan of £50,000. The Government scheme to substitute a single House for the present two Houses of Parliament had been withdrawn. The Colonial Legislature and the corporation of Cape Town were nuking every preparation to give the Duke of Edinburgh a hearty reception on his arrival. The Orontes had arrived out, but her troop; as well as those brought by t'e Himalaya, were still delayed at the Cape, in consequence of the fever at Mauritius. The Osprey had proved a total wreck ; the crew were all saved but George Devereaux, the leading stoker, a native of Portsmouth, who was drowned. The Petrel had visited the wreck, and reported it was quite broken up. All that had been saved con sisted of some articles of clothing, a few rifles and revolters, a chronometer, two sextants, some sails, and the remains of the rigging. A court of inquiry was about to be held. The war between the Free States and the Basutos had been brought to a close. It was reported by the steamship Saxon, which arrived at Table Bay from the Eastern route pre vious to the departure of the Briton, that there was every probability of Dr. Livingstone being still alive. Sir Thomas Maclear had not, however, re ceived any information on the subject. Sir P. E. Wodehouse, the Governor of the colony, whose term of service expires this year, is expected to leave for England by October in the mail steamer. There is no particular news from Natal. The country was looking well, and there was every prospect of satisfactory crops. Governor Neate arrived out in Mauritius on the 23d May, and was received by the corporation of D' Urban. Major- General Bisset, acting Governor, was to leave shortly for Algoa, Bay. 771 E GRAND ENTER,TAINIIIEN7 AT GUILDHALL. During the last three days nearly 40,000 people have been admitted to the Guildhall to see it in the state in which it was prepared and decorated for the reception of his Imperial Majesty the Sultan. Yesterday alone, which we regret to say was the last day it was open to the public, 16,350 persons, old and young, paid a visit to the hall between 11 o'clock in the morning and half-past 4 in the after noon, and crowds continued to flow in until 8 in the evening, when it was closed. On Saturday about 15,000 went to see the building. The visitors were in all cases admitted by tickets furnished gratuitously. The records of the Corporation of the City of London, extending over many centuries, abound with instances of the splendid entertainment o f crowned heads, and of other illustrious personages from time to time; but probably there is no occa sion of that kind in its history to vie with the re ception of the Grand Turk in munificent hospitality and stately ceremonial. In the recollection of living men connected with the Corporation there is nothing to compare with it in magnificence taken as a whole, unless, indeed, it be the memorable entertainment given to their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales in honour of their marriage ; but even that, brilliant as it was in all respects, fell short of the splendid pageant of Thursday evening last. By common consent a great success was achieved, delighting and fascinating all who had the privilege of witnessing the spectacle, with all the attendant circumstances, and worthy alike of the exalted personage in whose honour it was con ceived and of the Corporation itself. The splendid fabric erected for the occasion as a reception-hall was a marvel in itself, having regard to the short time allowed for its conception and completion, and to its extraordinary strength, lofty proportions, and great aptitude for the purposes it was intended to serve. It was designed by Mr. Horace Jones, the City architect, and is well calculated to enhance his professional reputation. The poet Wordsworth has somewhere said A thing of beauty is of joy for ever but it is matter for regret in many quarters that the fairy structure to which reference has just been made, and which may certainly claim to be regarded as "a thing of beauty," is in some risk of being de stroyed forthwith now that its temporary purpose has been answered, in obedience to some utilitarian considerations with regard to light and air to the adjacent offices and buildings, which it is said to obstruct. At a moderate estimate this reception hall alone will probably have cost the Corporation about £6,000, and so substantially is it built that it might last a century at least. No fewer than five staircases, one of them of stately proportions, leads to a spacious apartment above, capable of accom modating 300 or 400 persons at a time at an enter tainment, and well lighted and ventilated. On great public occasions, such as Lord Mayor's-day, when a great part of the company is shunted off into incon venient and out-of-the-way places adjoining the Guildhall, the new building might be turned to admirable purpose, and at other times of festivity it might be available for dancing. In view of these considerations it remains to be seen whether the Corporation will have the heart to demolish it. The marvellous splendour and taste with which the Council Chamber was decorated on the night of the entertainment as a supper-room for the Royal and distinguished guests, together with the brilliant company that assembled within its walls on the occasion, challenged the admiration of all who had the privilege of being present. The various civic guilds had contributed a choice selection of their most ancient and cherished plate, as had also the Corporation itself, to grace the banquet., and the general effect was gorgeous almost beyond con ception. The plate so lent consisted mostly of shields, salvers, flagons, drinking cups, plateaux, epergnes, vases, and candelabra, some of it being of solid gold. Every single piece had an histo rical interest in addition to its intrinsic value. One, in particular, was a magnificent candelabra of solid silver and of great antiquity belonging to the Fishmongers' Company, and suspended from the ceiling. The table was laden with these gor geous emblems of civic pomp and hospitality as was also a buffet behind the chair occupied by the Lord Mayor, and the value in the whole may be said to have been fabulous. The materials of this Imperial feast formed a curiosity in their way. The menu was as follows :—" Potage Pontoise l'Albion, Potage a la Victoria, Ris de Veau a la Lucullus, Filets de Poulets a l'Ecar, late Cotellettes aux Haricots Verts, Croustades it la Reine, Cailles i t la Macedoine, Crevettes en Caisses, Aspics de Foies Gras de Strasbourg, Homard 4 la Veuetienne, Salad it la Russe, Filets de Soles it la Venotienne, Buisson de Truffes de Perigord, Chartreuse a la Parisienue, Sau:non a la Royale, Galantine de Volaille aux Truffes, Pate it la Francaise, Jambon, Poulets Rotis, Laugue de Bceuf, Carre d'Agneau aux Concombres, Filet de Bceuf h la Choisy, Celes tine de Fraises, l'eches it la Belle Vue, Gelee, au Yin de Madere, Gateau it la Princesse, Ananus aux Croutons, Compote d'Abricots." It presented an exquisite specimen of the typographic art, being printed on satin, with a deep, rich border of gold, and adorned with :the arms of his Imperial Majesty the Sultan and of the city of London. Sixty only were printed, corresponding with the number of guests. The service used was designed and manu factured expressly for the occasion, and has since excited much admiration. At the Imperial table the principal guests were ranged . in the following order :—On the right of the Lord Mayor were the Lady Mayoress, his Imperial Majesty the Sultan, Fuad Paella, the Princess Louis of Hesse, the Duke of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, the Princess Mary Ade laide, the Duchess of Aosta, and Prince 'Peck. On the left, the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Mecklenburg Strelitz, the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Aosta, and Madame Musurus (now no more), the rest of the distinguished guests being ranged according to rank. A fountain played at the foot of the apartment, which was further adorned with a profusion of flowers of exquisite perfume and beauty, charmingly arranged. The repast was provided by Messrs. Staples, of the Albion, as was also the supper for the whole of the guests invited to the general entertainment, up wards of 3,000 in number, and both were well cal culated in every respect to sustain the fame of their establishment. The reception, indeed, was made the occasion by the Corporation fur the exercise of a profuse and munificent hospitality, which left nothing to be desired, and completely vindicated, if it did not eclipse, their ancient renown in that re spect. The Entertainment Committee and the rest of the civic authorities vied with each other in courteous attention to the company, and they have their reward in the reflection that on an occasion of commandinc , interest they conducted to a successful issue a splendid ceremonial, which will live in the recollection of all who witnessed it. LORD BYRON.— Madame de Boissy's "Recollec tions of Lord Byron" are to be published by Messrs. Hurst and Blackett during the autumn. These memoirs by the Italian Contessa have always been expected—and if the lady has told the truth about her famous English lover, her tale will be a gtralige one,—Athenaeum. TIER MAJESTY, &c. -~- OSBORNE, July 22. The Queen and the royal family walked out this morning. Her Imperial Majesty the Empress of the French is expected to arrive at Osborne to-day on a private visit to the Queen. DEPARTURE OF THE SULTAN. a - (THIS DAY.) His Imperial Majesty quitted London this morning, via the South-Eastern Railway for Dover, en route to Brussels. His Maje3ty arrived at the Charing-cross station shortly before eleven, where some hasty but very effective preparations had been made to receive the illustrious visitor. The departure platform was made gay with flowers and scarlet carpeting, and wreaths of laurel were en twined around the large and massive lamp standards that ornament the station. A large number of ladies occupied a large gallery erected for the occasion ; in addition to which a large number attended in their carriages on the roadway at the side of the station. Altogether the sight was not as imposing as that which his Majesty met with on his arrival in London, it was striking enough to convey to his Majesty the pleasurable feelings his. brief so journ in the metropolis had produced. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge accompanied the Sultan, and on the Royal party alighting from her Majesty's carriages they entered the elegant saloon carriage of the South-Eastern Railway Com pany, and the suite of his Majesty having taken their places the train Quitted the station amidst the utmost demonstrations of respect. Amongst the officials of the company present to receive his Majesty were Mr. Eborall, Mr. Knight, Mr. Cockburn, and Mr. Richardson ; and the ad mirable manner in which the whole of the proceed ings were conducted entitle them to the highest praise. TflE SULTAN A 7 71IE TIOR7ICULTUR4L GARDENS. Yesterday evening, after being entertained at a magnificent banquet, followed by a concert, at . Stafford House, his Imperial Majesty the Sultan honoured the President and Vice-Presidents of the Horticultural Society with a visit to their beautiful gardens. This was a special night fete given sclely in honour of his Majesty. It was originally fixed to take place to-morrow. Almost at the last moment, however, the date was anticipated by two days, and, as is usually the case with such sudden antedated festivities, they suffered somewhat in the great pre parations for the ceremony. It was only, however, those who know what was intended to be done on Wednesday that could at all judge to what extent the fete of last night fell short of what it would have been had the original day been adhered to. To the mass of visitors everything looked wonder fully beautiful, and really was so, and it is difficult to overpraise the zeal and industry that have been displayed by all connected with the gardens in transforming them to the aspect they presented last night at so short a notice. Not until Sunday after noon did his Majesty intimate that he would be un able to come on Wednesday, but would honour the gardens with his presence after leaving Stafford House. On Monday, therefore, everything bad to be done, and was done, too, effectively and well. The conservatory was cleared along its centre, and the rarest plants which could be got from Chiswick or the nurseries of Messrs. Veitch and Sons were brought up in haste to add to the attractions of what was already one of the most beautiful conser vatories in London. Carpets were laid, passages railed off with silk ropes, and a dais with Royal chairs erected at the opening on the northern side between the flights of steps leading to the gallery. On the left side of this gallery a spacious tempo rary room, draped with flags and exquisitely adorned with flowers, had been hastily run up for the use of his Imperial Majesty and the mo st illustrious of the guests who came with him, and in this a most sumptuous supper had been pro vided by the orders of the Duke of Buccleuch, the President of the Society. A corresponding enclo sure was made on the right gallery for the use of the members of the suite. These preparations, however, were as nothing compared to those which were made in the garden. All the coloured lamps which could be procured at so short a notice, and all the coloured Chinese lanterns that could be bought or made, were sent in from every direction. These marked the rims of the parterres, lit up the statues and vases, and hung in intricate festoons of coloured lights. At 9 o'clock, when all these were lit, the effect was wonderfully beautiful, and the early visi tors were rewarded for their punctuality by seeing the garden under the most striking aspect it hag ever worn, and which those who came later, after the inevitable rain had done its work on the illumi nation, missed altogether. '[he hour fixed for the arrival of visitors, of whom about 1,000 had been invited, was 9 o'clock ; before that time every place was occupied, and the conser vatory, brightly lit up and thronged with ladies, pre sented a most brilliant appearance. In its way it was one of the most perfect pictures of a semi-rural night fete that could well be conceived. Had his Imperial Majesty come at the hour he was expected he would have seen all the preparations made in his honour to perfection. As it was, ;he did not arrive until 12, and not until after a tremendous shower had drowned half the lamps. His Majesty came in State, attended by an escort of the Life Guards. Accompanying him in the same cortege were the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge, and his chief Ministers of State. Her Royal Highness the Princess Mary Adelaide, with his Serene Highness the Prince of Teck, arrived shortly before his Ma jesty, as did also their Highnesses the Prince and Princess d'Aosta, who were attended by his Excel lency the Italian Minister, the Marquis D'Azeglio. The Sultan was received on alighting at the Prince's entrance by the Duke of Buccleuch and the chief members of the Horticultural Society. His Majesty wore a plain, blue frock-coat without embroidery of any kind, and a plain fez The other members of the suite were similarly attired. The Sultan passed at once along the corridors into the conservatory, where every ono rose to receive hiln, but of course there was no cheering nor any marks of welcome beyond deep reverence. The dais being situated midway down the conservatory, his Ma jesty turned off short and went to his chair of State, having only traversed half the length of the building. Looks of disappointment from those at the northern end, who, of course, had not seen him , were general ; and the Sultan was the first to notice this, and at once came down from the dais an d walked up the hall and back again that all might see him. After this the conservatory doors were opened and 150 men of the Household Brigade stationed along the terraces, and at intervals in line near the principal arcades, lit at the signal of a bugle call the monstrous port fires or signal lights , two of which each man carried. The effect We s .. wonderfully beautiful, and the glare of the threw quite into the shade the pale flicker of til! illumination. It was not, however, so effective J,7 the same device used at the Crystal Palace on 01- ' night of the Sultan's fete, awl which so pleased III! Majesty that it was at his special request an at s tempt was made to repeat it last night. After the fires had burnt out, which was not for son lo minutes, the Sultan retired to his own room in tu: gallery, and a s it was then past 12 there was a gen e : ral dispersion of the company. His Majesty, af tLr i . about an hour's stay, quitted the gardens, ace''', P ` e panied by the same mar k s o f ceremony and popul ar welcome amid which he had entered.
