Smith, anxious to make the spectacle instructive as well as amusing to the patrons of this Theatre, bas obtained, at considerable trouble, the Description of the Grand Egyptian Coronation Procession, arranged and adapted to this stage by " Dylvynkyn," from the works of Clemens, Herodotus, Strabo, Plutarch, Diodorus Siculus, Jablonski, Lepsius, Denon, Champolion, Rosellini, Savary, Wilkinson, and other authorities in the British Museum, the publishing of which may prove interesting to the. numerous patrons wit nessing the spectacle, and can be had in the Theatre for one penny. Military Entree—Egyptian Soldiery in fell costume, marching three deep, with Band of Trumpets and Tympanum, or Hand Drum. The Agathodmmon, or "Good Genius" (Winged Globe), under whose protection the persons of Kings and Temples of Gods were placed, is borne first, and in succession the other Symbolic, Royal, and War Standards.

The Spirit of God"—" The Spirit of the (Vernal) Deity".." The Soul of the Sun," and by the Greeks "Jupiter Chnumis." Worshipped by the inhabitants of Thebais (Plu tarch). The asp was sacred to this god. The Ark, bearing his hieroglyph, with that of the beetle, or " C reative Power," is also decorated with this emblem. Symbolic s'Andard of "Athor" (Venus), the oracle of Night or Darkness chaos). whence arose all created things (Egyptian belief ). Symbolic standard of ditto.

" Thrnei," or Truth, or Justice. This deity has also a twofold character as the God dess of Truth and Justice. The small image of this god was worn by the Chief Judge while engaged in listening to cases brought before him. A similar emblem was worn by the High Priests of the Jews, and it is remarkable that the word " Thummin " is not only translated " Truth," but, being a plural or dual word, corresponds to the Egyptian word of "Two Truths"--i. e. " Light and Truth "—breastplates hav ing the figures of the two gods, " Re" (Light) aed " Thmei " (Truth) represented upon them haye been discovered. Priests with Scarabmi. The Searabmus may be considered as an em blem of " The Sun"—of "The Creative Power," and of the Cod " Phthah" (Vulcan). Incense Bearer, waving his incense Patera before the god.

" The Bull of Abundance," " Adored by the People," " The Sacred Bull of Pthah," " Guardian of the Solar Year," "Apia renowned over the world," " The Symbol of Inunda tion:" Richly draped and on a car led by Priests bearing the emblems of " Serapis" or " Sari Api," " The Pillar of Mensu ration, " Column of Measurement," or " Nilometer" of wood divided into cubits. Attendant priests also f.n the idol and offer homage as it passes forward. The festivals in honour of Apis lasted 7 days, on which occasion a large concourse of people assembled at Memphis—the priests led the Sacred (living) Bull in solemn procession, every one coming forward from their houses to welcome him. Pliny and Solinus affirm that children who smelt his breath were thought thereby gifted with the power of predicting future events. The tokens which distinguished this Sacred Bull at its birth were a white 'Pot resembling a crescent on its right side, and a InrilP under its tongue in the form of a beetle, as pretended by the priests. The people believed,him to be - the cause of the swelling and inundation of the Nile, which produced fertility and abund ance, and celebrated his festival at about the period of this annual occurrence with every demonstration of rejoicing and literal abandonment to the intoxication of joy all over the kingdom, Many temples were erected and dedicated to " Apis," and also to " Serapis," the divinity of the Column of Measurement—the Nilometer I N.B. The decorations of the drapery upon the bull and carriage are principally com. Posed of the first flowers that spring from the earth after the recession of the flood—i.e., the Lotus and Meliolotus. Priests with the pretended God " Canopus," or Water Offering to the God of the Nile. "It is said that the Chaldeans, trans- Porting the fire, which was their God, into all the provinces, offered to let him combat with those of other nations, On condition that if he remained the conqueror they should adore him. The priests of Canopus accepted the challenge and devised this stratagem. They fabricate in Egypt pitchers of an extremely porous earth, through which the water filtrates and is purified. The Arch-priest took one of them, stopped the pores with wax, and painting it of various colours filled it with water, and made it his god. He covered it with the head of an ancient statue, said to, be that of the pilot of Menelaus. The Chaldeans presented themselves ; the contest began ; they lighted their fires aroand the vase ; the wax melts, the water runs through the vase and extinguishes the fire. The fraud of the priest gave the victory to Canopus over the Chaldean deity. From that moment his image has been re presented with very short feet, a narrow back, and the belly and back rounded like a pitcher. It is under this form that be is worshipped as the vanquisher of all the gods."—Ruffin Ristoire de l'Eglise, livre second. No. 4. The Goddess " Pash-t," " The Memphian Lioness," " The Beloved of Pthah," " The Goddess of Fire," " Bubastes" (the Diana of the Greeks) preceded by sacred dancers. The Idol carried by priests in their leopard-skin dresses, with red incense flaming before her, and surrounded by " Symbolic Divinities," " Winged Geniuses," See. One or the principal festivities held in Egypt was at Bubastis in honour of the Pash-t-- 700,000 persons of both sexes being present. A great num ber of victims were sacrificed, wine was profusely drunk, dancing of the wildest character went forward, men played flutes, women sang and shrieked as loud as possible, struck the " Crotola" (cymbals) or clappers of wood and metal, Sec. Lotus Dancers (Females). Incense Bearers. No . 5. The god " Osiris," as " Osiris Pethempamentes" (the Pluto of the Greeks). "He who is resident in the Hades," Presi dent of the Amenti," " Receiver and Giver," " The Sun," " The Eye of the World," " The Source of the Nile , " " He who has many Eyes," a form of Ammon, wearing the " Ati," and having the Crook and Flagellum ; regarded as the author of Time, from the word, " Osch-Iri," " the maker of Time." The principle office of this deity was to judge the dead, and to rule over that kingdom where the souls of good men were admitted to eternal felicity. This deity was very famous— his temples and priests were to be found in al most every part of Egypt; the sacred rites of Osiris were a Profound mystery, never revealed. His name was even avoided, as of too august a nature to be mentioned. The "Ivy," with which the Priests decorated themselves, was sacred to him, and also the " Meliolotus." No. 6. The Sacred Boat of the Amenti, or Lower Regions, with the- four genii, or demi gods (bearing emblems of life and power) and their. vases of " Amenti," or that subterraneous region where they (the Egyptians) imagined the souls of the dead to go after their decease. The first genius is " Amset," "Judge of the Amenti" (human-headed). The second is " Hepi," " Con cealed Nuniber" (baboon-headed). The third is " Tuautmutf," " Adorer of his Mother" (jackall-headed), The fourth is " Kabh-senuf," " Refresher of his Brethren" (hawk-headed). The Sepulchral Vases have heads in shape of the four genii of the dead, and each was employed for holding a portion of the viscera of the deceased, embalmed separately and deposited in them. On the " Amset" Vase is inscribed' the speech of " Isis" to the dead ; on that of " Hepi" isa similar speech from "Nepthys ;" on that of "Tuautmutf, one from "Neith;" and on that of " Kabb-senuf," one from " Selk ;" the purport of each beingau assurance of protection, and of being " near thee," " beside thee," or " I come to 'be beside thee." The Sacred Boat is followed by the symbolic " Eyes of Osiris," or of "The Sun," emblems of th e all-seeing resence of the Di vinity. Note.—Besides the Four Amenti, here were 42 As sessors or Judges of the 42 Crimes, from which a good should be free ; and these also differ from the 36 Demons man mentioned by Origen that presided over the human body,ad were invoked to cure ter in of the peculiar member n immediately under their protection. No. 7. The Goddess I s is," or " The Seat." The hieroglyphic throne on her bead, and followed by the priestesses and virgins dedicated to her worship. "Nepthys," was Isis was style d also " The Beginning', ( as h er sister, " The End"), and " Isis, Queen o f Egypt," "The Goddess of the Moon," " Defender o f her Brother," &c. (The " Ceres" of the Greeks.) T he festival," says Herodotus, " which they celebrate at Bus °. via in honour of Isis is magnificent. After prayers a bull is sacrificed, which the priests cut up and afterwards burn, pouring oil on the fire while the victim is con suming. Kneeling and striking themselves in honour of . ' Osiris,' they afterwards eat what remains of the sacrifice.'' Tamarisk and Dancers. No. 8. The God " Horus" (or Khons- Horns, the Apollo of the Greeks, In-hieroglyph " The Warmth of the Sun," " The Path" (of the Sun), " The Sup port," a " Defender of his Father," &c., the Son of Osiris and Isis. He is represented with the single mystic lock of Hair of Childhood slaying his evil geniuses, under the forms of the lion, the gazelle, scorpions, vipers, &c., while Typho, Typhon, Seth, or Baal, " The Evil Spirit," is escaping from beneath his feet in the shape of a crocodile. He is attended by his sacred emblems and standaids. *The Hawk was dedicated to him, the Tamarisk Tree, the Testudo (Lyre), &c. One of the principal duties of " Horns," was that of introducing the souls of the dead into the presence of " Osiris," after they had passed the ordeal of final judgment. He also assisted Amset" in weighing and ascertaining their good conduct during life, previous to their admission into the august presence of his Father in tho blessed regions of the Amenti. Incense Bearers. No. 9. The Goddess " Nep *Ts " (" Proserpine" of the Greeks), called also "The End," "The Sister Goddess," " The Saviour Sister Goddess," "The Barren," " Rectrix of the Lower Regions." On her head the hieroglyphic emblem of her name, a bowl and basket, called ei N e b, placed upon a house, answering to " Ei" or " Tel," " Neb-tei' or "Neb-thy," " The Lady of the Abode." " The &strum, having the face of Isis on ono side, and Nepthys on the other, hieroglyphically represents 'the beginning and the end, or generation and corruption.' "—Plutarch. No. 10. The Goddess " Neith " (the " Minerva " of the Greeks,) en throned with sceptre, and wearing the " Teshr," preceded by Musicians, Male and Female Bearers of Incense with green flame, and surrounded by symbolic divinities. "Neith" was No. 19,6:-4.] styled " The Mother Goddess" or " Mother of Gods," " The Deified personification of Air."—(Dioctorus.) She presided over the Upper Hemisphere, and was particularlyworshipped at Sais. Musical instruments stringed (the Brion! or harp of 17 strings, especially) were dedicated to her. " Neith," or " Neth," is the supposed origin of the Greek name, " Thena," or " Athena." The belief of the Egyptians in " the Existence of a Supreme Being " is proved by the inscription over the Temple of Minerva (Neith), in hieroglyphic characters, viz. : lam that which is,.which was, and shall be. No Mortal has lifted up my veil—the offspring of my power is the Sim." And the" Immortality of the Soul," by the prayer recited at the time of death, by an Egyptian, expressing his desire to be received into the presence of the deities.

Magic and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of amusement: :It is not a monologue, for the audience them selves perform their parts with the principal actor, some of them on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, ror though everything becomes metamorphosed before the eyes of the visitors no one can be positive that he sees any one thing; but it is a comedy really performed by the com pany ; a melodr ma replete with startling positions and unex pected denouements ; a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of the public every night to app , ar as auxiliaries ; and an ex invaganza, in which all that seems to be is entirely beyond the bounds of probability. Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged and ashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum Theatre to overflow, and by means of whose generous aid he has been enabled to announce Magic and Mystery for con tinuous repetition. Ho believes that no professor of his art has at any time or in any place been honoured with an amount of success so extensive, so decided, and so unusual. He would attribute that success to three causes ; first, that in his present entertainment he has placed before his visitors the results of a life sedulously devoted to the attainment of perfected skill in one peculiar art, and to perfect which he has travelled the globe in every clime ; secondly, that he has spared no trouble nor expense,to put this entertainment on the stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment of the first mechanicians and artists of the day ; and thirdly, hat, while endeavouring to provide amusement for those who honour him with their presence, he has not forgotten that it is possible to afford information also, and that the oppor tunity should not be neglected of exposing conjuring where ever it has been used for nefarious purposes, "or whenever by resortieg to the conjuror's arts, in an illegitimate manner, the designing have succeeded in making dupes 'of the credulous. The 937 letters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pro 'essor Anderson has received, from the time of opening the theatre up to the present date, bear witness to the great in crest taken on the subject of this singular delusion ; whilst many of them bear melancholy evidence to the danzers which attend a belief in the superstitious nonsense of the " Spiri tualists." Judging simply by the correspondence which has resulted, Professor Anderson's expose of spirit-rapying and _ his illustration of the so-called table phenomena, have pro ducela seusatinn unequalled by any previous attempt to ex pose a mischievous and impudent juggle. Ibis impossible for Professor Anderson to reply at length to a tithe of the communications which reach him on the subject. He regrets that many of these should come from ladies - and gentlemen who, from their position in society and their well-known in tellectual attainments, he would least have expected to have been converts to a belief so preposterous in itself, and so easily susceptible of being controverted and disproved. Every evening, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions on spirit-rapping are expressed, and every evening, NVitlftn the Lyceum, how tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated., It is respectftilly requested that this Public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode of replying at full length to his multitudinous correspondents. II e regrets that the names of the great and learned of the land should have been made to figure in the documents emanating from the spirit-rappers, as for instance the following, ex tracted from the Morning Advertiser of Thursday, Septem her 20, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri tual Telegraph. It purports to emanate from an American soirit-rapper, Mr. D. D. Hume :—" Sir David Brewster frankly confesses that he is sorely puzzled' at what he has Witnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be thoroughly nonplussed. Both of these noted men brought 'he whole force of their keen discernment to bear upon the elution of the phenomena; but the presence of substantial, actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits _ _ who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate rial objects about the room, proved to be too much of a ques tion for them to master." Mr. D. D. Hume, the author of the shove, bas recently left England, and the following account of who, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: —" This young man, who is a Scotchman by birth, and now M Italy, is a remarkable medium for all the manifestations without apparatus. Barnum. who is. well-known throughout 'he Anglo-Saxon world as a splendid humbug, offered him 2,000 dollars per annum if he would perform at his museum iu New York. Barnum then took it for granted that medium could he bought. He was somewhat astonished when his offer was refused. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply and honestly remarked, that the money would have been very acceptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 2U), an or phan. and in very bad health : but he would have been afraid of losing his power as a medium, and he would sooner lose his life. The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. He inquired into the subject; and now Barnum, one of the greatest humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, is one of the firmest believers in spiritualism." It is cer tainly surprising to find such a paragraph as this in the editorial article of an established journal, the editor of whom might be supposed to be sane. Even if Barnum does believe in spirit-rapping does spirit-rapping gain or lose by this accession to its adherents ? and. with Barnum's endorse ment to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely to be negotiated ? Professor Anderson would believe not : but, when he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of England have the temerity to subscribe their names to so gross s swindle. when he finds that the Incumbent of Wortley (the. Rev. N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts his belief in it, and writes a book on the subject, he considers it t be time for him to state that which he knows of the mechanism by which it is effected, and the mischief to which it tends. In the Morning Advertiser of October 3 appears a letter froni Sir David Brewster, relative to that which he saw at Cox's Hotel. 'n com'anv with Lord Brougham. He distinctly states that which the Wizard of the North proclaims every night—that spirit-rapping is nothing more than conjuring applied to bad purposes. In the Morning Advertiser of the following day, however, there is an answer to Sir David's letter from one who was present when he and Lord Brougham had their seance with the spirits in which the writer says, that " the table (a large dinner-table, I believe) moved about in the most extraordinary manner, and, among other things, a large ac cordion was conveyed by an invisible agency to my hand and then to Lord Brougham's, in which, held by his lordship's right hand, apart from any person, it played an air through out." With such a statement, printed for the edification of the people of the 19th century, with the facts before us that the most talented men of the day are permitting themselves to be deluded by these juggling spirit-mongers—that the greatest novelist of the age is now engaged .in making it the subject of a new work, and that a " spiritual convention" has actually been advertised to be held in St. Martin's-hall, Professor Anderson trusts that his exposures of the spiritual ists of America, as given by him nightly at the Lyceum, will be received by the people of England as genuine honest at tempts to provide an antidote for the bane of the spiritual jugglers. In the course of the last five weeks 100,017 persons have visited the Lyceum Theatre,—a larger number, it is believed, than has ever before been assembled within its walls in so short a period. Magic and Mystery is repeated every even ing, the programme being continually changed.

( From the Tines of this day.) We can add little to the graphic narrative which appears to-day of the fate of Kinbourn. Thisepisode in the war incurs the danger of being neglected from the very brilliancy and promptness of the victory. The capture of a place after a few hours' cannonade conveys the feeling that the exploit was easy, and, even though important, yet not interest ing, and hardly to be called glorious. But the story to-day given to the world is one of complete preparation and profound foresight, followed by immediate success. The allies " came, saw, and conquered," because nothing had been omitted which could obviate mischance or delay. The cap• Lure of Kinbourn and the occupation of the Dnieper estuary ought not to sink in the estimation of Europe because the skill of the commanders pre chided the possibility of a long defence. The first feature in these operations which calls for notice is the feint of an attack on Odessa. It seems that at j last we have learnt that something more than dar ing has always been thought necessary in war, and that "stratagem" is a word synonymous with "generalship." For two days the combined fleet lay in a thick fog close in to the town of Odessa. The church bells sounded through the gloom, while the signal guns of the fleet were listened to with dread by the inhabitants of the seemingly threat. ened city.- When the mist rolled away, the citi zens of all ranks were discerned watching the move ments of their enemies with curiosity and appre hension. Cossacks scoured the country around, soldiers laboured at earthworks—all denoted the expectation of an immediate attack. The wind was high, the short swell of the Black Sea tossed the mighty fleet, and for three days longer it lay op posite the fair city of the enemy, which it could so easily have crushed. At last, on the 14th of October, the whole fleet weighed and stood to the eastward. It need hardly be repeated that Kinbourn stands at the extremity of a narrow spit of land which forms the southern shore of the liman of the Dnieper. The Allied troops landed to the east of the town, in order to cut off the retreat of the garrison. This operation was completed with out opposition. The French placed themselves on the left, so as to undertake the assault; the British landed to the east of their allies, and prepared to resist any attempt of the enemy to march to the rescue. The French were not long before they began the. work. In the ni g ht they crept up to within 700 yards of the place and opened their first parallel. But Kinbourn was too much exposed to the sea to require the slow approaches of a siege. The Allied fleet poured in a deadly fire from two sides. The cannonade was louder and more inces sant than in. the hottest conflict at Sebastopol. A flag of truce appeared, it was answered, and the firing ceased. The garrison marched out, and half of it is on its way to Spithead. Kinbourn remains to us something more than the " bloodstained ruins" in which Gortschakoff boasted that he had left Sebastopol. We may again congratulate the country on this important conquest. No event of the war is likely to be productive of more lasting •good. While Marlborough was winning brilliant victories an Admiral named Rooke seized a rock on the coast of Spain. Little was thought of the acquisition, and ' the seaman was unrewarded. Yet, while Blenheim and Ramilies are merely a remembrance, Gibraltar remains a reality. So the establishment of the Allies in an impregnable position at the embouchere of the Dnieper and the Bug may be a wound to Rus sia deeper than was inflicted at Alma or InkermaL• The place cannot be wrested from a Power which holds the sea, while its guns command the narrcw channel which passes close under its walls. If it be true that communications have been kept open be tween Odessa and Nicolaieff, in spite of blockading fleets, these communications must now cease. The whole bay for 30 miles is in our possession, and the further defences of the enemy must now begin at the mouths of the two rivers themselves. All that remains is to prepare for the operations of the coming spring. The liman is frozen for about two months, but early in March it will be as free as now for the guu-.boats and mortar-vessels of the allies. That Kherson and. Nicolaieff are now in danger must be evident to the Czar and his advisers. The defence of the latter city and its vast building yards is intrusted to Todtleben, the young engineer of Sebastopol. An advance against this place will no doubt form one of the acts of the great drama of the war, although the date of such an enterprise cannot be predicted. It can, however, only be averted by the conclusion of hostilities, and, if undertaken, its success is certain, for the allies will not be impeded by the deficiencies, nor will they fall into the errors which marked the early campaign in the Crimea. This is perhaps the last narrative of action and en terprise which NV e shall have to lay before our readers during the present year. Skirmishes and coast ope rations may follow, but, though useful, they will not have the interest which attracts the world to the story of a routed enemy or a captured town. We shall now have to tell of another and deeper courage, which endures without the excitement of the combat or the expectation - of any special re ward. We trust, for the sake of our country and its good name, that the news from Balaklava for the next four months will be what is termed " devoid of interest." If the enemy is to bo un molested let it be hoped that the British army will he tranquil also. Food, shelter, and clothing, suf ficient in kind and quantity, will make our troops contented, and deprive of incident the re cord of their daily life. The improvement and or ganisation of the army will be the cheerful, though not exciting, theme of future letters. The dreary season of inaction will, we hope, be lightened by present comfort and hope for the future. The trials that are inevitable will then be met with a stouter heart, and disregarded, because it is felt that they are soon to pass away. If we are now at the end of the exploits of 1855, the public may well call to mind the incidents of a most eventful year. It began in calamity unspeakable—it is now about to end in triumph and well-grounded hope. The exer tions of the nation and those who serve it through toil and danger have met with no inadequate suc cess. The darkness seems to be departing, and we nay look with thankfulness for the coming dawn (Front the Daily News of this day.) If the operations of the Allies iu the liman the Dnieper lead to the capture of Nicolaieff, or Kherson, or both, before the close of this year's campaign, their importance will he great. If these objects are not achieved, the whole affair must be regarded as a coup 2nanque. The capture of Fort Kiubourn, and the evacuation of the Otchakoff forts, are only of consequence as giving the Allied squadrons free ingress and egress into and from the Liman. And the forts themselves, though of respectable strength, were so inadequate to with stand the overpowering naval force brought against them, that their destruction is really " not worth making a song about." But the capture of Ni colaieff and Kherson would not only cause an im mense quantity of Russian stores to fall into the hands of the Allies, or be destroyed by the Rus sians themselves, but would intercept the direct road by which ie Russian troops in the Crimea maintain their communication with Odessa, the great depot of provinces drawn from the Ukraine. It is not without anxiety, therefore, that we await the arrival of further intelligence from the Dnieper. The season is now far advanced, and we may soon expect the advent of storms, frosts, and fogs that will render any advance upon Kherson and Nicolaieff from the seaboard impos sible till the return of spring. And even during the best season of the year attacks upon these places must necessarily bo attended with serious diffi culties. From the entry into the Liman, between Fort Kinbourn and the Otchakoff forts to the Delta of the Dnieper, is a distance of thirty-six miles. The Boug falls into the Liman at right angles (flow ing from the north) about midway. From the mouth of the Boug to Nicolaieff is a distance of twenty-four miles. The river is shallow, its course tortuous, and commanded by steep banks on both sides. If an attempt is made to approach Nico laieff by water, the field batteries of the Russians may be brought into play to gall the flotilla at every yard of its progress. If the advan eis made by land, we are utterly ignorant of the number of Russian troops concentrated in the neighbourhood that can be brought to oppose it. The position of Nicolaieff is naturally strong. It stands on the neck of a peninsula, two side 3 of which (the southern and the western) are washed by the waters of the e Boug ; the third (the northern) by th ose of b Ingul, which there falls into the Boug. We kno' of loavrt byt that o great efforts have been made strengthen the entrenchments ; and w t e skill the the experience of Sebastopol, with Russians construct earthworks, is situated pertinacity they defend them. Kherson osite the on the north bank of the Dnieper, opp. a n . d ha with what o f I . S . miles from apex of the Delta, at a distance and is divided like the Bong, shallow and tortuous, the Liman.

The navigation, however, is per plexed and difficult ; and aland advance to Kherson would lead the Allied troops over a gr,eaterex . ex panse of country than au advanc e upon Nicolaieff. Kherson is not naturally so stro n g as Nicolaieff; still it is placed in a hollow, surrounded on three sides by abrupt eminences which are crowned with forts and batteries. The mouth of the Bong, Thco• laieff, and Kherson are at three angles of a triangle of which the side extending from the mouth of the Bong to Nicolaieff is twenty-four miles long ; that extending from the mouth of the Bong to Kherson thirty-six miles ; and that from Kherson to Nico laieff also thirty-six. These scantydetails will suf fice to show that the reduction of either or both of these two places is likely to be attended with con siderable difficulties ; and there remains little more than a month for the accomplishment of the enter prise, as the Liman of the Dnieper is frozen over from December till February. It is impossible to reflect on these circumstances without regretting that precious weeks were wasted before the expedi tion started from Sebastopol, and also that instead of steering direct for the Liman of the Dnieper, it anchored off Odessa, where six more days were lost. It is true that the mere presence of the Allied fleets in the waters between Odessa and the mouth of the Dnieper, and their success in the only action that has taken place between them and the Russians, cannot fail to make an impression on the minds of the natives. The description given by our Corres pondent of the appearance of the shores along which the squadrons sailed from Cape Fontana (the point west of Odessa at which they first neared the land) to Kiubourn, is the picture of a country flourishing under the auspices of a long peace. The presence of a hostile and apparently resistless Armada can scarcely fail to suggest to the minds of the inhabitants that it is their own Government's lust of conquest that has drawn this visitation. upon them. The wealthy and influ ential classes in Odessa—whose mercantile enter prise is the.source of the prosperity of the whole surrounding district—can hardly be called Russians. They are principally foreigners, attracted by the resources of that emporium from distant shores. Their sense of allegiance to the Czar—of identifica tion with the Muscovites—is extremely feeble. Except in one direction Odessa is only accessible from the heart of the empire across wide and road less steppes, utterly impracticable during a part of the year. The events now in progress around Odessa cannot but prepare the minds of the inha bitants for a wish to be severed from a State which by its conduct exposes them to hostile attacks from which it cannot effectively defend them. But such a result is a mere contingency; it belongs to a re mote future. What is wanted is some immediate decisive blow that will be felt to the core of the Muscovite empire ; and when all circumstances are taken into consideration, it appears extremely pro. blematical whether such a blow will be struck dur ing the course of the present year. ( From the iforninq Post of this day. ) Towards the close of the last Session of Parlia ment two very important discussions took place, in both branches of the Legislature, on the subject of the appellate jurisdiction exercise) by the House of Lords. We now revert to the subject (at the com mencement of the legal year), because we believe that it is no less the wish of the profession than the interest of the public that some immediate steps should be taken to improve the constitution of the House of Lords as the tribunal of last resort. In the outset we must disclaim all participation in the opinion expressed by Bentham, in his tract "On the Oreanisation of Judicial Establishments," that " the House of Lords is the worst-constituted of all judicatures." No Englishman can speak slightingly , or with disrespect of the great and venerable magis trates who have adorned, and still adorn it, by their learning and virtues. It is the union of judicial with legislative functions which confers upon the higher branchof the Legislature that eminentdignity which the House of Commons has not always maintained in the estimation of the public ; and any measure which would tend to substitute another tribunal of appeal would inflict a calatrotousblow not only on "an ancient and venerable estate of the realm," but on the administration of public justice in this country. We are not of the opinion of those who would make the Lord Chancellor merely a chief appellate judge, holding office irrespective of political changes. The individual charged with the superintendence of our legal institutions, and whose duty it is to effect those reforms and amendments in our laws which the progress of time renders necessary, could not adequately discharge his important and multifari ous functions in any position less responsible and influential than that of a Cabinet Minister. But, in spite of the theoretical perfection of the House of Lords as the ultimate tribunal of appeal, it cannot be denied that it has not recently given that satisfaction which the suitors have a right to expect. We do not presume to question any decision which their lordships have pronounced, neither do we advance any opinion which is not supported by high authority. The point to which we wish to direct attention is, that the num ber of law lords who attend the appellate business of the House is so small that most important and difficult questions of law have been sometimes decided by only two judges. The honourable and learned member for Wallingford (Mr. Malins), in August last, stated "that there were the most grave objections to this appellate system, and he hoped that her Majesty's Government would speedily take some steps to remove them. The system was slow, expensive, and unsatisfactory. No law lord, besides the Lord Chancellor, was hound to attend the hearing of appeals in the House of Lords. In five instances this session, only two law lords attended the hearing of appeals. An appeal to the House of Lords was very high sounding, but what did it mean ? There was a rule by which the lay lords were prevented from interfering iu judgments on appeal to the House of Lords, .90 that an appeal to the House of Lords frequently meant only an appeal to the Lord Chancellor and another peer. Why should not a judicial court of the House of Lords be appointed for the hearing of appeals, or a number of judges, say three at least, to he appointed who would be bound to attend ?" The hon. and learned gentle man might have added that, on several occasions, in consequence of the disagreement of the two law lords, the judgment of the Court below was affirmed: and thus all the trouble and expense of an appeal to the House of Lords had gone for absolutely nothing. The noble and learned lords who are supposed to be available for the appeal business are, Lord Lvndhurst, Lord Brougham, Lord Camp bell, Lord Truro, Lord St. Leonards, and the Lord Chancellor. these, Lord Lyndhurst and Lord Truro, the one from great age, and the other from ill health, can scarcely be expected to attend. Lord Campbell is sometimes compelled to be away in the discharge of his duties as Lord Chief Justice, and, therefore, there only remain three law lords, Lord Brougham, Lord St. Lionards, and the Lord Chan cellor, the absence of one of whom may, at any time, bring about the evil of which Mr. Malins complains. All that is wanted as a rem , dy is an in crease in the judicial strength of the house ; for this purpose it has been suggested that the jurisdiction exercised by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council should be trwisferred to the House of Lords, that the number of law lords should be increased, and that the house should sit as a court at least five days iu the week during the entire legal yetahri; Such an arrangement would do away withrts_ anomaly of having two superior appellate coi o i real the first deciding and one way a question s_ t estate arising under a will ; and the l estateseco decid ing the same question as to persoina arising under the identical will precise.lye!aibeieother way. ft portion of the must he recollected that a considerable judicial business of the Hosuseeen Lords consists of s uggested that a Scotch appeals, and it ha judge from the Scotch Benchfrnashould be selected to tters connected with take part in the decision o course w ere adepte , . t l Scotch law. If this be lieve that the decisions of the . House of Lords would dditiona han y l carry with them more weight Scotland do at present, d the services of an acid for the general appellate judge would be b us i ne ss of t h e three kingdoms. If E ng l is h l awyers can, almost by intuition, master the n i ce ti es . n, of Scotch l aw, there can be no reason why an en liediteued Scotch judge should not usefully take part in the decision of questions of English law. The peerage which would accompany the selection would not only be a recognition of the distinguished merits of the individual, but would be a compliment which the bench and bar of Scotland would duly a ppreciate. If the Government were also to confer a peerage on Mr. Pemberton Leigh, the Chancellor of the Prince of Wales, a most accomplished and learned lawyer, and on one of the lords justices, or one of the common law judges, the constitution of the House of Lords, as an appellate tribunal, would he free from the objection which marred its utility during the last session of P THE MUSEUM OF ORNAMENTAL ART AT MARLBOROUGH HOUSE.—The numbers attending, &c., during the month ..1 Oetob,r wern as follows :-8,640 on the public da y , and admitted free ; 460 persons on the students' days, and admitted as students on the payment of 6d. each,; besides the registered students of the classes and schools. ,~ LA\ ',PER • SA . \.. PRESERVATION OF LIFE FROM MP WRECK. -7- Yesterday a meeting of the Royal National Lil Institution was beld at the anci ety'c liGuge, John, Adelphi ; Capt. Lambert Perrott, in the chair. Therts-''' was also present—Capt. Shepherd, H. C. S. Deputy- Master of the Trinity-home ; Montague Gore, Esq., Rev. C. 13. Gribble, M.A., "Edward Hurry, Esq., Cap tain Mg - lardy, R.N., James Peake, Esq., her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich ; and Captain Ward, R.N., in spector of life-boats to the institution. Mr. LEWIS, the secretary, having read the minutes of the previous meeting, The silver medal of the institution was voted severally to three Irish sub-constables named Terrott, Havey, and Nicholson, and 101. to be divided between them and two fishermen, in testimony of their gallant and highly meritorious cenduct, in putting off in a boat, when blowing a heavy gale of wind, to the rescue of two men, who belonged to a boat which sank off Knock, near Limerick. It appeared that while the boat was attempting to make for Knock pier, she was overwhelmed with a heavy sea, u tilled and immediately sank her. The two men in the boat were seen to cling to the mast, about four feet of which was seen above the surf, but the tide still flowing this position of the mas: was also soon covered. The thr...e constables having observed the im minent peril of the two men on the mast, ran towards the quay, where a number of fishermen were assembled, discussing the improbability of any boat living in such a terrific sea, and earnestly entreated that Borne of them should attempt to rescue the two poor men. One fisher man, however, very creditably offered his boat for th, service, if a proper crew could be procured to handle her. But out of an assemblage, consisting of from 50 to 70 per sons, only two fishermen volunteered to accompany the three constables on their perilous enterprise. It now had become painfully evident that any further delay would he fatal to the two poor men, over whom the sea con tinued to wash,`and which would soon engnlph them in its bosom. The constables rushed into the boat, and, after some further entreaty on their part, two fishermen followed them. The sails of the boat were soon set, and a few minutes afterwards brought them close to the suf ferers, whose piercing cries for succour rent the air. After much difficulty and hazard the 3 were taken on board the boat, from which they were landed in an ex hausted state. The owner of the boat also received 21. from the institution, for his promptitude in lending his boat to the men. The three constables had received badges of merit from the Inspector-General for their humane and spirited conduct on the occasion. A reward of 11. was voted to a boat's crew of two men in consideration of their very laudable services to the crow of the sloop Hopewell, of Ab?rdovey, which sank during violent and variable squalls in the Bristol Chan nel on the 10th ult. When the sloop was off Battery Point she was driven in a squall of wind on the East Nook Sands, where she beat about a considerable time. The wind having shifted late in the day the sloop was driven off the sands in a sinking state, her crew at the same time using every exertion to keep her afloat. Ultimately, however, her pumps became quite choked, and no alernative was left them but to allow the vessel to drift upon Swasle Point, where she shortly afterwards filled and sank. Her crew then took to the rigging. The wind was at the time blowing a heavy gale, and the sea making a complete breach over her. Having been observed in this perilous position by two Glcucester boatmen, who were near the spot in their boat, they im mediately male towards the sloop's crew, and succeeded in rescuing them from a watery grave. A reward of 21. was also voted to four coastguard men, in consideration of their intrepid and meritorious conduct in putting off in their least to the rescue of two men who were upset from a boat in the sea, near Ard glass, on the coast of Down. It was blowing hard from the south-west at the time, and c >nsiderable risk and difficulty was experienced in reaching the capsized boat. The two men were picked up in an exhausted state, and would probably hal perished had succour for a short period longer been withheld from them. Are ward of 2/. to three Pill boatmen was voted, for their laudable and prompt services to four men who were upset from a ship's boat at the entrance of the Se vern, in the Bristol Channel. It appeared that the boat of the Amtrian brig Pridetta, while attempting with four of tae brig's crew to enter Ringroad, got athwart of a tow rope, which upset the boat. Three Pill men witnessing the accident, made all speed in their boat to the men's assistance. They succeeded in picking up three of the men, who were clinging to the boat's oars and to pieces of boards. One man, however, had been driven by the current astern of the Pill men's boat, which was then under a press of canvass. Charles Case, who belonged to the Pill boat, immediately jumped overboard, and, being an expert swimmer, fortunately succeeded in reaching the man and keeping him above water until his boat was brought to their assistance. Mr. Ciffurd brought before the committee an account of his plan of unlashing, lowering, levelling, without the possibility of canting in &scent, and disengaging at will ships boats laden with any crow from vessels sta tionary, or under way, by one matt only in the boat, without any other assistance whatever. The boat may be lowered from the ordinary davits, or a single spar. A. working model of it is now to be seen at Lloyd's. It was seported that during the past month the insti tution had placed a new life-boat atßerwick-upon-Tweed. Soon after the arrival of the boat at her station the fisher men of Spittal put her to a searcuing trial, which, how ever, fifily carried out the intentions of the institution concerning her. The boat weighs about 2 tomes, will right herself immediately when upset, and discharge her self of the water she may ship in about 25 seconds. Her stability or power against upsetting is so great that i t requires 24 men to stand on her gunwale or side to bring it to the water's edge. A report of a somewhat similar boat, from the Aber deen Harbour Trust, stated " that the boat built for them tinder the superintendence of the National Life boat In stitution had answered admirably, and that her crew bad perfect confitien.:te in her daring the heaviest gales." These boats are on the design of Mr. J. Peake, of her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich, and are built under his superintendence by the Messrs. Forrest, of Limehouse. The institution voted its cordial thanks to Mr. Peake for his untiring assistance in promoting the building of life-boats, and for his moot valuable assistance to the society. A grant of 501. was made by the society in aid of the Gorlestou Seamen's life-boat, and 73/. voted towards putting the Penmon (Anglesey) life-boat establishment in an efficient state. Various other life-boat payments were likewise made. It appeared that the institution had now about forty life-boats under its charge, and that it paid quarterly about 150/. as wages to their crews for exercising them. So many establishments must necessarily occasion a large outlay to keep them in an efficient state and ready for every emer = gency. The proceedings then closed. FLOODS IN DEVONSHIRE.—The heavy rains which have fallen during the past week have caused the country in many parts of Devonshire to be flooded. In the neigh bourhood of Exeter especially the water is particularly high, the fields for the distance of some miles are covered, the trees and tops of hedges only being visible. At the village of Stoke especially it was so high as to cover the turnpike-road to a depth of several feet. The rails of the Bristol and Exeter Railway only just escaped, the water being nearly on a level with them. Fortunately, be• yond the inconvenience to the agriculturists and travel lers no further damage baa been caused.
