The Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday ex plained to the House the course which the Govern ment had resolved to take with respect to the Boundary Commissioners; he mentioned the circum stances relating to the management of the Com mission which undertook the task of revising the boundaries in 1832. In consequence of some mis conceptions that then arose, an idea prevailed in the public mind that matters had not been properly settled, and, in fact, that jobs had been accomplished. As far as he himself is concerned, Mr. DISRAELI did not seem to attach much importance to the notion, because, as he truly added, " Nothing is more exaggerated than the mutual imputa tions which we make against each other that we take advantage of whatever circum stances may be under our control in our party arrangements." Still care has been taken in these deliberations recently held to prevent any recur rence of the evils alluded to, and obviate the doubts that then arose, and in some instances marred the satisfaction produced by the passing of the great measure of Reform. We think that the Govern ment acted very wisely in not appointing a Royal or Ministerial Commission, which it was quite open to them to do. They thought that it would be most unadvisable to proceed after this fashion, and made it their object from the outset to have the Commis sioners " statutory." had they acted otherwise there might have been some foundation for the objections made about the business the other night, but under the actual circumstances of the case they were as futile as they were impolitic. The number of the Commissioners has been reduced, and the public will be glad to hear that Lord EVERSLEY has consented to preside over the Commission. Accord ing to the new plan proposed there will be three Liberals and two Conservatives on the Commission, but the Chancellor of the Exchequer said that no con siderations of that kind have influenced them in making their arrangements. In order that some necessary supervision should be exercised the Secretary of the Committee will be appointed by the Government, and belong to the Treasury. Even then Mr. BRIGHT was not satisfied, and said that he objected to the proposal about the Secre tary ; it really seems as if the hon. member for Birmingham could never be entirely satisfied with anything but what emanates from himself, and at any rate other people do not content him. Mr. GLADSTONE again failed to bring in the Committee to his way of thinking, and respecting the consideration of the amendment proposed by Mr. HARDCASTLE he was very eager in his support, but to no purpose. lie was assisted in his efforts by Mr. BERESFORD HOPE, and they strove hard to extinguish the freemen. The Chancellor of the Exchequer objected to the proposal on the ground that they wished to preserve their bill from the taint of disfranchisement, and the amendment was negatived. Another proposed by Mr. lIoLDEN was defeated by a small majority. Mr. COLVILLE'S amendment, to put copyholders in Parliamentary boroughs on the same footing as freeholders, was discussed for some time, and finally rejected by a majority of 2, and a similar fate befell Nlr. VIVIAN in his attempt to extend the privilege to those who had long leases. Curiously enough Mr. CARD WELL'S proposition to exclude the members of Oxford and Cambridge Universities from voting at the borough elections, respecting the occu pation of premises in colleges or halls, was sup ported by nearly all the members of the Treasury bench, while the followers of the Ministers were against it ; it was carried by , twenty-one. The decisions of last night were more in the . negative than in the affirmative line, but in some sort pro (Tress has been made, since no more time has to be occupied in the discussion of these matters, and the committee can turn to other subjects of interest. Among the many working men's Conservative associations which the recent successes of that party have encouraged to spring up in all directions, it is not surprising to find one in process of organisation at Chatham. The voters interested in the dockyard and its belongings are naturally anxious to secure a representative whose voice may have some influ ence with the Government of the day, and accord ingly they are looking forward to the time when a new election shall give the Conservative candidate another chance. The proceedings on Thursday evening were chiefly of a political nature, as Ad miral ELLIOT, the defeated candidate at the last election, entered very fully into the claims of the dockyard establishments on the attention of the House of Commons. The gallant Admiral declared his belief that the Manchester school, to which the sitting member was attached, was altogether opposed to the interests of the dockyards, and proceeded to touch upon some of the points connected with their administration which he thought most needed re form. The reduction of the pensions he disap proved of, and thought that by an insurance com pany, or some such thing, the pension ought to be made a permanent provision for the dockyard man and his family. The men, it has been said, ought to be provident and take care of themselves, but Admiral ELLIOT holds, that as many of them are indisputably not provident it is better to pay them a certain amount, and to insure the rest for them or for their families. Otherwise there is a chance of an improvident man finding himself, when his term of service is out, with nothing to retire upon. This is a hardship of their own making, if the alterations in the pay of the men are clearly explained to them, but if the object is to benefit the men themselves it may be ques tioned if the change is altogether beneficial. The education of the children of the dockyard men was the next subject which 'Admiral ELLIOT FBE SUN. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENINU, JUNE `.45, 1867 touche d upon, and here he thought the Government should give direct assistance. The pay of the men, he aaie, was not large ; there was no speculation in thoir trade, and they had less means to educate their children that others of similar rank in life possessed. Certainly it would diminish the difficul ties of the education question if the Government could', in some way, insure that all the children of the men under their employment received the rudiments of learning. If all largo bodies could do the same a great step would be gained, though it would be neither fair nor reasonable to throw the burden of expense on the employers. Some assist ance might very well be given, and the education then rendered compulsory. It i. 3 a national dis grace for the children of men employed in Govern ment establishments to be brought up in ignorance, and we should be glad if a school were attached to all large permanent national works. - Whether or no the gallant admiral obtains his seat at the next election the dockyard labourers have secured an able advocate, and it is as well for those in office, to whatever party they belong, to be occasionally re minded of their obligations to their employes. King WILLIAM did cot care to meet his Parlia ment again, but sent his message to them at the close of their sitting. In this he expressed many thanks for the unanimous decision that they had come to respecting the North German Constitution. He augurs that from this time North Germany will present a " closely-connected union of States," and other matters of a national character will likewise be happily arranged. It is almost amusing to notice the effrontery with which the Prussian authorities treat affairs, in the conduct of which they have not shone conspicuous for honour or honesty, and thus e find the recent Confe rence alluded to very quietly and unconcernedly. " Thanks," it is said, " to the moderation and love of peace of all the Powers, success has been at tained in guarding the peaceful development of European affairs from interruption." It is, how ever, quite idle to go on descanting upon the bless ings of peace and so forth, and to talk of the consolidation of the conquests of Prussia, because it is well known that Berlin ambition is never satisfied, and that as soon as one thing is gained another is attempted. Thus the last news is that the King of SWEDEN is shortly expected at Berlin on a visit, the object of which, it is presumed, will be to arrange a matrimonial alliance with his only daughter and the Prince ALBERT of Prussia, a cousin of the Prince Royal. In all ways and by all means Prussia seems using every effort and making exertions to gain influence and to extend her connections. At any rate this contemplated alliance shows that Scandi navian unity may be reckoned among the things that were. It had once been thought advisable that the Prince of DENMARK should be united to the Swedish Princess, but circumstances interfered. We do not think that Sweden has gained by the change, but she follows the usual direction of the world in paying court to the winning side. The evidence obtained before the Sheffield Trades' Union Cointnission . 'yesterday was less start ling than on the previous days, bat, as the inquiry goes on, it tends more and more to prove the com plete supremacy which BROADHEAD and his asso ciates had obtained over their fellows. Between the desire to keep up the Union, and the fear of the consequences of detection and exposure, the money was generally forthcoming for any excesses when wanted, and those secretaries and managers who objected at first to blowing up and shooting inva riably gave in at last. BROADIIF.AD appears to be a daring criminal. Ile knew the weak points of those with whom he had to deal, and when he had found the necessary implements for earrying out his designs, he would go to the other secretaries when the busi ness was done and obtain the money. Sometimes they demurred at matters having gone so far, but he pithily remarked to one of these objections— " Well, it's done ;" and this argument was un answerable. JOSEPII lIorLE, secretary to the Jobbing Grinders' Union, said that he had " ar ranged" with BROADHEAD about ratteuing some men belonging to both their societies, who worked at a Mr. HOLDSWORTH'S. Soon after the place was blown up, and BROADHEAD came to him for £6. Tie objected to the blowing up, but got the money from the committee, telling them they had better pay and keep the matter quiet. Another witness, whose conduct was shown to be most shuffling fil l vinutewhat and Ihe knew, inconsistent, a said he no A h D a n d EA n D o , t liked whom he had always considered a respectable man, might I s v o a m s e a s w n a e ra to th s a l t ioo li t it l o n D ii i . lEA l D le m ha i v tt e ed emi t i h r a )l t oy h e e d was supposed to be connected with most of the outrages in the town, but he never thought him so bad as he had turned out to be. So that being con nected with the outrages does not necessarily inter fere with the respectability of Sheffield ! We h• ve and learn. countries form altogether a singular and varied col lection, presenting peculiar types. There are not many pictures of the French school, for most of them were sent to the Exhibition in the Champs Elysees. Two magnificent portraits of M. Cabanel, however, arrest general attention. One is the portrait of the Emperor Napoleon 111., the other that of M. Rouher, Minister of State. The likeness of both is very striking. The sculpture is in great abundance. There are marble busts of Richard Cobden, by M. Oliva ; of Beranger, by M. Irvoy ; and of M. Buguet, re cently deceased, who was professor of civil law at the Paris School of Law. The bust of Augusta Compte, by M. Etex, is admirable. The head of this advocate of what is called rationalism and the marked features are well portrayed. Passing on you cannot fail to stop to have a glance at a bronze statue of an ancient chief of Gaul on horseback, armed with his lance, sword, and shield. It is by M. Fremiet, and is modelled. after the most antique and authentic specimens in the French museums. England has sent a great many works of art to the Exhibition, some of them of great merit. In the first room of that department of art are portraits of the Prince and Princess . of Wales, and a great many historical pictures, at others Queen Elizabeth seated on her throne receiving the Ambassadors from France. One picture considered curious is the tamed mare. The tamer is a fair young girl asleep in a corn field, and the animal lies exhausted by her side. A spaniel is shaking himself on the grass. In the same room there is a bust of Lord Palmer ston. The deceased statesman looks as he lived, and has a jaunty, coquetish air. The Italian department is eminently distinguished for its sculpture. I have already mentioned the beautiful statue, by M. Vela representing the last days of Napoleon I. at St. llelena. It is worth long inspection. This beautiful work will have a worthy place in the Louvre. The colossal statue of David and Croliah must also strike your atten tion. Portugal and Greece have sent many statues of more or less merit. As to photography the specimens are magnificent and abundant. There are portraits, landscapes, buildings ; in short, representations of almost every thing. This art has evidently made wonderful pro gress. It has entered the domain of the useful as well as the beautiful, for almost every day it is ap plied to some new and essential purpose. It shows us not as we see ourselves but as others see us. A French photographer has said that celebrity is for a man to be known by those who did not know him. Photography exhibits men to all the world, and their characters may be estimated nowadays by all if it be true that the face is the index to the mind. Russia has sent to the Exhibition 21 horses, which are all comfortably installed. There are six saddle horses, six trotters, three draught horses, and nine others of various types. The trotters belong to the celebrated breed of Count Oeloff Tchesmensky, and come from his haras at Khrenoraya. They are remarkable for beauty and speed. The Cossack horse is admirably represented by a graceful little black specimen called Donetz. Of all the Cossack horses the Cossack of the Don bears away the is A t p h a r e lm ab ß : , u t a n s a n i d a s n t t a h l i l p o s i oa fie sixteen nof specimen tyh years r E s x o h l i d o b , f t twtthohe breed. In on, n i c c h lie i n r e every is r a n r v e a s i p u e e c o t f htahais tshtaellaitotnriibsuetestsimofataedyoaut n i g ° , h o o o r o s f e . . e The programme for the great ceremony of the exhibition of prizes, on the Ist July, is now arranged. The doors will be opened at twelve o'clock. At one the orchestra will play, under the direction of George Hain], the overture of " Iphigenie en Aulide," of Gluck, after which will be executed a new piece by Halevy. The next piece will be the " Chant du Soir," with chorus, by Felicien David. The Emperor will then make his ceremonial entrance, the band playing. The new hymn of Rossini to the Emperor and the French people will be performed. Appropriate speeches will then be made, after which the distribution of prizes will take place. The Emperor and the Royal person ages will then promenade round the building, and the orchestra will play the national airs of various countries. As soon as the Royal ['arty shall have resumed their seats, the band will play the overture to Auber's " Muette de Portici" (Masaniello). The ceremonial will be concluded with the cele brated chorus of "Judas Maccabreus." Another important and wonderful addition to the Exhibition now attracts the admiration of all. As you enter the French department by the Pont d'Jena, immediately on turning to the left is a stu pendous clock of surprising perfection as a piece of mechanism. It is from the establishment of M. Detouche, of the Rue St. Martin, clockmaker to the Emperor, and its details afford strong proof that France can claim the merit of per fecting the art of clockmaking to a marvellous extent. The works are large and communicate with the dial, which is placed externally. The pro portions are gigantic, the dial being nearly three yards in diameter. The clock strikes the hours and quarters with such power that it may b 3 heard from some distance. The principle is the same as that of the clock at the Arts at Metiers. Scarcely anything in the Exhibition excites such general in terest and admiration• . It must be satisfactory to the French that their taste and skill have not only bem witnessed with pleasure, but well patronised. \\rhea the Prince of \Vales visited the establishment of Messrs. Christofle and Co. he was so delighted with a tea and coffee service that he not only bought it, but ordered another similar service on a larger scale. This service is of elegant design and most exquisite workmanship. No one should omit to ask per mission to see it. This selection of the Prince of "Wales is a well-deserved tribute to the excellence of the articles manufactured at this eminent esta blishment. It is satisfactory to add that many articles, both English and foreign, in other parts of the Exhibition, are marked " sold." A curious marriage has been celebrated at the church of St. Vincent de Paul. The husband is a prisoner at La Roquette, and the wife at the prison of St. Lazar() ; the former was condemned to eight years' imprisonment, and the woman to two years. The marriage was brought about through the me and the Abbe Michel, almon er o f L az are, who dium of the Abbe Croze, almoner of La Roquette, de vote their lives to the consolation of prisoners. They officiated at the ceremony. The administra tion of the Prefecture of Police in the interest of morality encourages marriage between prisoners. Several marriages have taken place under similar circumstance:. Th e present marriage was cele brated in the chapel. The husband was in deep mourning for the death of his daughter, aged five years, which took place a few days ago. After the ceremony the husb an d conducte d hi s y ou ng wife to the threshold of he r cell in the prison of St. Lazare , where they kissed an d separated i n t ears . lie was then conveyed to hi s cell at La R oque tt e . Prince Arthur of England has arrived in Paris. Another arrival m ent i oned i s t h a t o f Ali Pacha, who is the richest m an of Egypt, exce pt the Pacha . The report is that Ali Pacha means to spend a marvellous deal of money in Paris. Brigandage does not seem to be confined to Italy, but the system has been introduced into France. There has been an audacious attack by brigands upon waggoners between Nice and I'Escarene. The brigands attacked four waggoners, knocked them down with their guns, and robbed them of all their money and v a l ua b !es. Fi ve ot h er waggoners were attacked and f ire d upon. The wounds of two of them are such th a t th ey are nc t k expected to sur vive. The occurrenc e h as crea t e d unusual excite ment, and the authorities have taken vigorous steps to arrest the malefactors. THE BAR OF SCOTLAND.—Tho Edinburgh Courant says a meeting of the Faculty of Advocates was to be held on Friday for the purpose of considering the follow ing resolution to be moved by the Dean :—" That the Faculty are of opinion that the bar of Scotland should bo put on the same footing as regards the appointment of Queen's counsel as the bar of England and of Ireland, and direct the Dean and his counsel to communicate this reso lution to her Majesty's Government." IMPORTANT TO JURORS.—The new Act of Par liament (30 and 31 Vie., c. 33) w hi c h h as just been issued provides that jurors iu civil or criminal proceedings who object to be sworn are to be permitted to mAke a solemn declaration. LA TEST INTELLIGENCE (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Monday Evening. The Emperor has sent the following letter to Marshal Valliant : "Palace of the Tuileries, June 11, 1867. "My dear Marshal—l have received, on the oc casion of the sad event of the 6th of June, an address from the members of the Superior Council of the International Jury of the Exhibition. I was particularly moved by this manifestation ; and I beg you, in your character of Vice-President of the Imperial Commission, to transmit to those gentle men my most earnest thanks.—Believe in my sin cere friendship, NAPOLEON. The Emperor of Russia left Warsaw on Saturday, on his return to St. Petersburg. _ _ The news of the attempt to assassinate the Em peror of Russia excited great indignation at Madrid. The Queen of Spain immediately sent to the am bassadors of Russia and France her affectionate congratulations, which were immediately de spatched by them by telegraph to the respective Emperors. The Chamber of De puties unanimously agreed to an address of congratulation. The next day the Senate made a similar demonstration. In their address the members expressed their painful surprise at the at tempt, and their joy " that Providence, in watch ing over the lives of the two Monarchs, had saved Europe from incalculable misfortunes." The popu lation of Madrid exhibited the same sympathy as the Chambers.

In the last sitting of the Legislative Body M. Morin (de la D:ome) made some energetic; and eloquent strictures upon the conduct of Prussia in regard to North Schleswig. Ile argued that the non-execution of the article in the treaty of Prague, stipulating that the population of the districts should be consulted as to their desire to be again incorporated with Denmark, was a flagrant viola tion of right. This stipulation is still passed over by Prussia, but it is evident that Prussia will be again in difficulty should her policy be to try to evade the treaty.

While North Germany will henceforth constitute a closely-connected union of States, the national community which already secures the protection of German territory will also be extended to the commercial life of the German people. The Zollverein, the foun dation of which formerly marked the com mencement of the united development of Germany, will be brought into harmony with the vital conditions of the North German Con federation. Thanks to the moderation and that the love of peace of all the Powers, success has been attained in guarding the peaceful development of European affairs from interruption. The friendly and confidential relations existing between the King and the Sovereigns of powerful neighbouring States afford the prospect in every direction of the blessings of peace continuing to be undisturbed.

The Cabinet Secret. By Leigh Spencer. 3 vols. Hurst and Blackett. This novel will attract those who seek for some thing more than mere amusement when they turn to the pages of fiction, for it contains very apt re presentations of character, and descriptions such as are calculated to awaken thought and interest. The story is in two divisions as it were, for the Lees of Lee Manor belong to a very different world to the Lockstones, Merestown, High-street, who usurped their place, but could not emulate their popularity, or take their position in the regard and the respect, of the county. Of these the former do not come out near so strikingly in the sketch as their opponents the Lockstones. Mr. Lee was almost reduced to imbecility in consequence of the annoyances and persecutions to which he had been subjected, and he performs no put in the drama before us but that of concealing, through confusion of mind, an important paper, the existence of which was not known to any but himself, and the dis covery of which would speedily have changed his day of mourning into one of rejoicing, and put a period to his banishment. The manner in which all the attendant circumstances connected with this the " Cabinet Secret " are told to the reader is very ingenious, and the extreme naturalness of the descriptions strikes us forcibly; for many writers, in seeking to convey an idea of a thing of this sort, narrate these details with an air of improbability which defeats the purpose aimed at, and totally misses its end, but in these pages it is simply told, that the unfortunate old gentleman clung with a striking tenacity to the preservation of a curious old cabinet, and manifested extraordinary anxiety lest any in jury should befall it. The vast importance of cha racter in its influence over others is shown by the manner in which Mabel acted, or rather did not act, in connexion with the mystery appertaining to this cabinet. Sarah Lockstone in her place would have speedily solved the difficulty, and set at rest the doubts that existed on the subject, but it was other wise with the gentle daughter of the fallen race. She did not look beyond the present moment, and hence much confusion arose, and grievous losses to her own family. The scene is almost dramatic in its excitement and interest, in which a minute investigation is made into the intricacies of the affair, and the significant words, " too late," meet the gaze of the disappointed prize -seekers. The intimacy between Sarah Lockstone and Harry Neville is a curious one, but not inconsistent with her strange character and peculiar circumstances. Before the tale closes one cannot help entertaining a sort of respect for this young girl, although she is not at first sight calculated to win regard. She possessed great natural abilities, and a very bold spirit, which attributes were a misfortune to one circumstanced as she was. A complete retirement would have suited far better with her most equi vocal position, and her attempts to force her unwil ling father and herself into the county society was as ill-judged as it was unseemly. Her brightest moments were her last, when she did her utmost to redeem the past, and to let jus tice take its course. It must have been a satisfaction to Harry Neville to find that his devotion to her was not altogether thrown away, but that his in fluence had acted in the right direction in urging her to make restitution, instead of braving it out to the last, and endeavouring to add one wrong to another. Stephen Lockstone himself is an unsatis factory character, and through his hesitation and drawing back does not seem to derive any profit or pleasure from his daring ventures and unscrupulous conduct. " Not half a villain and not half a knight" would serve for his definition when he attempted to shine forth as a county mag nate, and still to play his part as a crafty attorney. His conscience stood in the way of his success, and the poorest labourer on his estate was a greater object of envy than the new master, who occupied so ungracious a position, and whom no man wished well to. It must be con fessed that the heroes of the tale have the advantage over the heroines, for Frank Marsden, Dr. Arms daile, and Harry Neville are each in their several ways distinguished for sincerity of purpose, and for kindness of feeling displayed too under circum stances of the most trying description. A friend in need is a rare acquisition, and in a different manner Harry Neville showed his steadfastness and sincerity of trust when Sarah Lockstone was placed in a most painful position. The judgment of their sins do not always overtake the wicked so quickly in this world as was the case with the Mereston lawyer, but the epitome of life and death thus put before us cannot fail to impress all who peruse the striki ng record. He who h a d sacr ifi ced all things to gain hi s point, found out that h e cou ld not acquire peace of mind and contentment for him self. Ile who had driven his employer in his old ago from his home met himself with a wretched end. In flying from the pursuer he caine to a fright ful death, and all that he had perilled so much to obtain passed subsequently into the hands of those whom he had so fraudulently'deprived of their rielts. While it cannot be said that some of the events here met with are very probable, none of them are im possible, and some very naturall follow upon re vious occurrences. rtlo'p he t Cabinet eilnti y e e Secret"of all is a who l l i v k o e r work that commends itself" descriptive novel, one that sketches characters most completely, and dives below the surface that superficially at tracts attention. In it s pages we meet varied events, and can recognise the truth of some of the lessons inculcated. Depth of cunning and unswerving energy nayoften the ends which the w i c k ed seek fo'r; but t h c e o y m i p n a a s y s at the same time fail to satisfy the very ones who succeed in the eyes of the world, for the upright mind can face adversity with a better grace than the cowardly spirit can bear ill-gained prosperity. BELGRAVIA.---" Birds of Prey" forms as usual the most exciting of the subjects offered to the public, and this portion of the story is more attrac tive than the last, because the researches of the indefatigable llawkshurst lead him to Yorkshire, where he enjoys country quiet and home scenes after his overdose of town pur suits, and of its not most elevated pleasures. The scene which tells us of the Muses being at tea is a refreshing one, and the versatile talent of the author is as much at home in still life as in sensa tional adventures. " Lyrics of the Months" tells of a dinner at Richmond ; the representation is effective, and the verses pleasing on the whole. " Circe "is proceeded with, and at some length ; the story is a brilliant sketch of fashionable and artistic life, and in the accounts we meet with of the divinity of the scene, we recognise that she is a heartless and un principled woman. The mistakes which the in fatuated young man made who sacrificed his art to his devotion for her are very truly shown. Moccatti's decisive manner and outspoke❑ language are quite a relief after the platitudes of some and tke falsehoods of others in the tale. , t Lon don Squares" contains some curious revelations, and this, with its predecessors on the same subject, pre sents a good idea to the unsophisticated reader of London, past and present. An account of the Paris Exhibition does not appear to take a very flattering view of the Palaceof Art and Industry i❑ the Champ do Mars. THE RECENT RIOTS AT WATERFORD.—O n Fri day an application was made to the magistrates at Water ford, by Mr. Power, solicitor, fur the next of kin of the late Denis Walsh, who lost his life in the recent unhappy riots in that town, to have information sworn for the com mitment of constable Robert Mercer on a charge of murder. The application was refused on the ground that no sum mons had been served ou the constable. The mayor and the other magistrates made use of the occasion to compliment the police on their conduct during the riots, stating that their forbearance was beyond all praise. DREADFUL DEAT/I.—An accident of a most lamentable and heart-rending nature took place yesterday in Liverpool, at the brewery of Mr. John Lane, Oriel-street. It appears that one of the men, named William Carr, was engaged at a large mash-tub, containing boiling-hot liquor, some five or six feet in depth, when suddenly the unfortu nate fellow lost his balance, and was precipitated into the scalding liquid. his fellow-workmen hastened to his as sistance, and after considerable exertion got him out, but he was so frightfully scalded that ho expired very shortly after the occurrence. At the inquest held by Mr. Devey, deputy coroner, the jury returned a verdict of accidenta death. _ --f7iNa. • A ID 'hint*icH cicr ti neat ,-1--1151trThuv.. HER MAJESTY, &c. WINDSOR CASTLE, June 21.

Mr. Benedict's Conceit. 4 The great event of the musical season—viz., gr. Benedict's annual concert, which, for over 30 years , has attracted such vast audiences—took place yes terday afternoon at St. James's Hall. The attend ance on the occasion was no exception to the general rule ; every seat in the hall was occupied, and it more brilliant or elegant audience has certain L Y never assembled within the building. Their Royal Highnesses the Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg Strelitz, and his Serene Highness the Prince de Teck and suite occupied a splendidly-furnished box on the right of the orchestra, and altogether a scene °I no ordinary description presented itself to the talented composer, which could riot but have been in the highest degree gratifying to him. Th e pro gramme, as usual, was an extraordinary one, 35 it contained the names of all the gre atest artistes in the profession, both vocal and instru mental, and of such a length that ti polite suggestion was submitted to the audience to avoid the demand for the repetition of any of the pie ces. The concert commenced with Beethoven's over ture " Egmont," splendidly played by the band, w hich was composed of the pick of the two Italian op era orchestras, and then Mr. Weiss sang a new so n g' entitled "King Canute." Madame Trebelli-Bettina followed with Bevignani's brilliant tarantella, " Vieni alla danza," which she executed in the mos t charming manner. A triple concerto, by J. 6 ; Bach, for three pianofortes, was then performed by Mr. Benedict, Mr. Lindsay Sloper , an d Master Cowen, which was, of course, one of the great features of the concert. The manner iu which the piece was played was all that could b° desired by the most exacting musician ; the Willi gti,t o site touch, the a s t on i s hi ng ;recision, and the Va l " of es tone o were e 'slake h r w e e m r a k v a e b b l e e , f oarned referred e t the r f r o e r d it w " o s u n i g w would have had to have been repeated, an honour it most, unquestionably deserved. M. Jules Lefort el ° sang a very sweet romance " Chanson d'amenr, and Madame ,Rudersdorff followed with a very sparkling and pretty gip;y song 131 Randegger, entitled " Hasten hither, pretty maidens." The bright particular vocal star, Nladlle. Christine, Nilsson then appeared, and sang Mozart's aria, " Voi the sapete" with the most ex quisite taste. The audience were rapturous in their applause, which was renewed again and again de spite the graceful acknowledgment of the fair and accomplished artiste. Piatti then played one of his best solos on the violoncello ; then followed Blan qui's duo " Per valli, per boschi," by Madlle. Nils son and Madame Trebelli, and such was the extreme beauty of the performance that, despite all remons trance to the contrary, the audience insisted on an en:ore, which the ladies at once complied with. Mr. Sims Reeves sang a new bal lad by Blumenthal, entitled " My Queen," but why such a dull and twaddling song should have been selected is very peculiar. Of a .very dif ferent description was Miss Edith IVynn's new song, "The Maiden's Dream." That was as good as the other was indifferent. Mdlle. Nilsson then again appeared, and sang two of her national airs with charming archness, and when again the audience t loudly pleaded for the repetition of at least one of them, she, with the sweetest of smiles, complied, and at its conclusion she made w ho very pleasant observation to Mr. Benedict, accompanied her -- at least we judge so foal. the warm and hearty manner in which both shook hands as they quitted the orchestra. The second part of the concert was Mr. Ben c ,; dict's cantata, 'The Legend of St. Cecilia, supported by Mdlle. Titiens, Mr. Sims Reeves, g r ; Santley, and Mdlle. Drasdil. We have before had occasion to notice in unmeasured terms of need this cantata, so that on the present occasion we r _ only say that the splendid composition was P c „ formed again in the most perfect mann er P.' . d use that most accomplished vocalists in the worl I use that it called forth the unanimous aPPluthat as it virasvidt. etut; of one of the most appreciative audiencesPrir u s to ever assembled.

A meeting of officers belonging to the Royal Naval Reserve was held at their club room, Mark lane, yesterday afternoon, to consider the steps which should be taken to have that force repre sented at the grand naval review which is to take place during the visit of the Sultan to this country. A strong wish has been expressed by a number of officers and men of the Naval Reserve living at many o f the ports that arrangements should be made for them to . take part in th e i n t erest i ng pro ceedings. Captain Brown read several letters he had received from officers to this effect. The writers all agreed that it was most important the force should be represented, that they believed such a recognition of their services would considerably strengthen their position, and that, if the Govern ment would permit them to be present, there would be no difficulty in getting a thousand men with a sufficient number of officers. The question for con sideration was the expense. It was suggested that if the:Admiralty would accept their offer the men might easily be brought to the fleet either by some of the tenders or by a Government steamer calling for them at the different ports. As the men would have to be paid for their time, it was thought that the authorities might regard the service thus given as so much of the ordinary drill which they have to undergo, and therefore that there would be but very little extra cost to the public. The officers present said that they should prefer not to receive any pay, but of course the men could not afford to do so. There was a unanimous opinion that if the Admiralty would accede to the request it would give great satisfaction to all the members of the force. It was decided that Captain Brown should request the First Lord of the Admiralty to receive a deputatimi from the officers, and that Mr. Greaves, M.P. for Liverpool, Mr. Ayr ton, M.P., and other members of Parliament should be asked to attend and support them. One or two of the officers in quired how it would be possible to provide the men with a uniform, but the majority thought that this could be easily managed. It was stated that there might be more than a thousand men. The way in which they were to be employed in the review was to be left to the executive. There is a very fine body of the Naval Reserve in the Scotch ports, but it appeared to be uncertain whether they were too distant to attend. SUDDEN DEATH OF A BAP,ONET. —Yesterday morning Sir Morgan George Crofton, Bart., of Alohill House, county Leitrim, was found dead in his bed at his house in Leamington. He was born 1788, and succeeded his father, the second baronet, in 1834. Ho was formerly a lieutenant in the Royal Navy. His son Denis, born in 1819, becomes the fourth baronet.
