OPENING OF THE FRENCH CHAMBERS• SPEECH OF THE EMPEROR PARIS, MONDAY. In opening the extraordinary session of the Chambers, this day, the Emperor delivered an address to the following effect : " The Conferences at Vienna have unhappily make a new no:: resulted in peace. I come then to appeal to your patriotism. The Conferences have justified the conduct of the Allies, and evinced their moderation. Propositions, which I will call magnanimous on account of their disinterestedness, have been made by us and rejected. We are still expecting of Austria the execution of her engagements, which were to render the alliance offensive and defensive should negotiations not lead to a peace. The admirable devotion of the army and navy will soon, I hope, bring about that result. " You will continue to give me means of carry ing on the war. I had intended to place myself in the midst of the army, where the presence of the Sovereign would not have failed to produce a happy influence, and where I should have been witness of the heroic efforts of our soldiers. I should have been proud to be able to direct them; but grave questions abroad and important mea sures at home force me with regret to abandon the project. No extraordinary levy will be re quisite. Let us have confidence in. God, and persevere, so shall we arrive at a peace worthy of the alliance of the two great nations." IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OP LORDS. —(THIS EVENING.) ROYAL COMMISSION.

[LEFT BITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The Sheriffs of the City of London appeared at the bar, and presented a petition from the Lord Mayor and Corporation of the City of London, praying that the above bill be referred to a select committee, and that they might beheard by counsel against certain provisions thereof.

Mr. PULMAN, Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod, ap peared to suininon the attendance of the house to the House of Lords, to he: - Lr the Royal assent given by com mission to various bills, (fir which see Lords' report.) The SPEAKER, accompanied, by several hon. members, then proceeded to the House of Lords. Commons would adopt some course to produce so desir able a result. On the motion of Lord PALMERSTON, her Ma jesty's message was ordered to be taken into considera- WITHDRAWAL OF THE SUNDAY TRADING BILL. On the return of the SPEAKER from the House of Lords, Lord GODERICH rose to put a question to the noble lord the member for Middlesex (Lord R. Grosve nor) as to whether it was his intention to proceed with the Sunday Trading Bill. (Hear.) Lord R. GROSVENOR said he was rather in an awkward predicament. (A laugh.) Nobody liked to be mobbed and bullied out of a measure—(hear, hear)—which was introduced with the intention of having effects so totally dissimilar from those attri buted to this measure. He hoped the house and the country would remember that this was a measure which was not intended to enforce the better observance of the Sunday ; it was a measure which interfered with no man's weekly labour—with no man's religious opi nions, but was a measure intended to procure as large an amount of holiday for the over-taxed artisans of this country as possible. But considering it was one of those measures peculiarly liable to misrepre sentation and ridicule, and that misrepresentation and ridicule had been most unsparingly exercised towards it, and considering also the late period of the session at which we had arrived, and the formidable opposition with which this measure was threatened, he (lid not think it right to keep up the existing irritation for the bare chance of passing the measure this session. (Hear.) He begged, therefore, to move that the order of the day for the third reading of the bill, which stood for Wed nesday next, be now discharged. (Loud cries of hear.) The order of the day for the third reading of the Sun day Trading Bill was then discharged. Mr. OTWAY congratulated the noble lord on the de. termination he had now arrived at. At the same time he could not but express his sincere regret that the noble lord did not on a former occasion, when an appeal was made to him, withdraw that bill. He (Mr. Otway) wished to ask the Secretary of State for the Home De. partment whether, in consequence yode fpakther,which h proceedings e that bad taken place yesterday in H believed to be attributable mainly to the vacillation of the Home Secretary—(cries of oh, and hear)—and to the fact that the Government had entirely abdicated their functions, and that both the noble lord at the head of the Government and the Home Secretary had expressed them. selves with respect to this bill in a most flippant manner and had acted with the greatest vacillation—he believed it was to that that the tumult in Hyde-park yesterday was owing, and to which was 'also to be attributed the 1 fact that 104 persons were confined in the gaols of the metropolis--he wished to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether it was his intention to take any steps to procure the liberation of those 104 persons who were now in gaol for having assembled he (Mr. Otway) believed, legally and properly, in Hyde-park yesterday, and whether he would lay upon the table a copy of the instructions that had been issued on that oc casion to the police ? (Hear, hear.) Sir G. GREY considered the hon. member for Staf ford had no grounds for charging him with vacillation in this matter, seeing that he (Mr. Otway) took no part in the discussion of this bill when in committee. (Mr. OTWAY—I voted against the second reading.) He (Sir G. Grey) expressed his opinion at the time the bill was in committee on various clauses, and he was prepared to express them again on the third reading of the bill, and he did not consider he could bej us tly charged with vacillation. It was not a Government bill, but introduced by the noble lord the member for Middlesex, and supported by the majority of the metropolitan members. (Hear.) He was informed by the police in the course of the week that 11 or 12 notices had been issued calling on the people to assemble in Hyde-park on Sunday last, which it was feared would lead to some disorder, and there could not have been a greater dereliction of duty on his part than his permitting such a monster meeting to be held at all on the Sunday, which was an interference with that free enjoyment of these parka by the public, and a privilege which the people of this country possessed, scarcely equalled by any other city or town on the continent. (Hear.) In accordance with his directions notices were i issued stating the illegality of the meeting, and a large body of police stationed there in the event of any out break, and it was not until the carriage way had been obstructed, and the noise and hooting cau-ed some o f the horses in carriages and others that were ridden to run away at the imminent risk of the lives of the persons in the carriages and on horseback that the police at tempted to clear the road to allow the public to exercise that right of enjoyment in the park which they ail were entitled to. (Hear, hear.) The hon. member had asked him it it was his intention to order the liberat on of those persons who had been taken into custody in con sequence of what occurred yesterday. In the first place of the 104 persons said to have been taken into custody, 74 only were reported as having been apprehended for assaults on the police, or riotous or disorderly conduct— (hear)—the remainder being composed of pick-pockets, a class of persons who generally frequent such places. Surely the latter wag not a class to whom the bon. member would wish to have the prerogative of the Crown extended, and with regard to the former, the offenders were undergoing an examination before the magistrates, and he did not consider himself ju-tified in interfering to prevent the ends of justice being carried out. (Hear.) Mr. T. DUNCOMBE did not object to the with drawal of the bill, a course which he recommended when 1 the second reading was moved, when he and his col league the member for Lambeth protested against it ; and they were the-only two metropolitan members who opposed the measure in its early stages. (Hear.) He was glad, although perhaps rather late, the bill having been withdrawn, to see hon. gentlemen coming to their li rescue ; and, seeing the Home Secretary in his place, he wished to present a petition to the house, and ask him a question upon it. The petition was from Mr. Edward Medley, a constituent of his, who states he saw many women and children struck down the previous day in Hyde-park by the bludgeons of the police, they being quietly and peaceably conducting them selves there, whilst other persons were taken into cus tody and shamefully treated by the police without any cause, and the petitioner asked that an inquiry be made into the conduct of the police on that occasion. (Hear, hear.) The question he wished to put was whether the Secretary of State for the Home Department had receive' any report from the police magistrates with regard to these disturbances, and if so, whether he bad any objection to lay it on the table. He (Mr. Duncombe) was creditably informed by persons who were in the park t hma e le m eshona p veaernaddt understood ee childrenn t d tnin a shamefully,consequence yesterday, that the police, instead of behaving in that na m smh eyaenfuumnele:rmletteraheneaonytfei maltreating innocenta (ea l r l a y el a d rs i .o n ) 1, had soldiers witnessing the conduct of the police on the occasion to which rt,wh h eat e rhue pd a t l ba l t n ekhf d eoe e nr d e i , tn ht : that a collision police magistrate. took place . between result aar , id o f H w e hi: v h ish e,i was to thatput Police, the loh them b th r e o they had that day been he thought it only showed the i to that effect, because a question to the Home Secret subjects of this kind. introducedWhenthearnigeehrleoflelredgislating on this measure, he warned him it would have the effect et produci ng becausetb e collisions people nc, t peopl e t b h e e co . and the police, Supposing there on this Be e_ ewas that extent ject.

He should at all times oppose such measures as this, al though he Lad been toll by some of his constituents who dissented from him that, if they had the opportunity, b e would be ducked for his opposition (not like the noble lord, in the Serpentine), but the reverse of water, which' he would not name, and probably by some of the n o bl e lord's friends. (Laughter.) Mr. WILKINSON expressed his dissent at bills of this kind being brought forward by private members of the house, instead of by the Governent—(bear)—and his disapprobation at the cond rn uct of the police yesterday. Mr. AV. J. FOX was of opinion some inquiry should be made into • the conduct of the police yesterday in Hyde Park. From all he could learn the conduct of the police appeared to have been atrociously brutal ; and ha d it not been for their inter position no violence need have occurred.

The Myrmidon, 4, iron steam-vessel, Lieut. Maunsell, Commander, hauled out of the fitting basin at Ports mouth on Saturday, and went into the harbour to swing for the adjustment of her compasses. Her Majesty's yachts Fairy, Master-Commander Welch, and Elfin, Master-Commander Balliston, hauled out of dock at Portsmouth on Saturday, having been re-embellished for the Queen's summer service. Tao news of the death of Lord Raglan created an ex traordinary sensation in Portsmouth garrison. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-trans port Candia, Capt. Field, arrived at Southampton on Saturday evening from Portsmouth, having landed about 30 invalids from the Crimea. She is ordered to prepare immediately for the conveyance of cavalry to the East. Tue screw steam-ship Norman, Capt. Vallans, will em bark at Southampton this day 4 officers, 60 horses, and 45 men of the 6th Drazoon Guards, and will leave direct for Balakiava. During the week small bodies of troops passed through Southampton for Parkhurst barracks, Late of Wight. The Governraent steam-tug Comet con veyed a large number from that port to Cowes. The Calypso, 18, Captain Arthur Forbes, which, with the paddle-wheel steam-vessel Kite, 3, was towed out of Bermuda on the 25th of May, by the steam-sloop De vastation, arrived at Plymouth with the Kite in tow on Saturday morning.

Three deaths have, however, occurred among the officers ; Sur geon Rae died of fever, and was buried at La Guayra First-Lieutenant Lock, Royal Marines, was buried at the same place, and his successor, Lieutenant Gell, died at Jamaica before joining. Lieutenant Bazal gette, who joined in September, 1853, continues in command of the Marines. The Calypso has an excel lent and well-disciplined crew, few punishments have been inflicted, and there were none on the black list when she entered the Sound. The screw steam-ship Brunswick, 80, arrived at Ply mouth on Saturday from Pembroke, and went into llamoaze to be dismantled. The Calcutta, 84, Captain James J. Stopford, on Friday and Saturday last, received through the post office at Sheerness mails for the Baltic fleet weighing more than one ton and a quarter.

He had been induced to ask the question because private letters up to the 19th inst. had been re ceived in London. Lord PALMERSTON replied that despatches of the nature referred to had been received at the War-office this afternoon, and they would be duly published in the Gazette. EDUCATION SCOTLAND (NO. 2) BTLL. The house then went into committee on this bill, and complained th a t resumed m r.H i A ts p co r n i s E id L er p a , tio a n t as some m: clause 14. length, the bill as altered was not calculated to promote the education of the people of Scotland generally, but only of a section of the community. It was exclusively a Presbyterian measure, and its title was consequently a delusion and a snare. The test clause had completely changed its operation ; and had that clause existed in the first instance, the house would never have sanctioned the introduction of the bill. It was on that account, therefore, that at this stage of the bill, when there was so much business of an import ant character to be transacted, when there were so many influential petitions against it from both sides of the house, and when, moreover, even some of the best friends of education were opposed to it, he saw no rea son why it should be persevered in, except that if it were lost this session it would be lost for ever. (Hear, hear, hear.) Under such circumstances he felt bound to move that the chairman now report progress without asking leave to sit again. (Hear and laughter.) Mr. FITZROY (the Chairman of the Committee) said he could not put that question. Mr. HADFIELD thereupon moved instead that the Chairman now leave the chair. Mr. WILLIAMS wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Government, how ho intended to dispose of the 381,0001. voted for education in England and Wales. According to a calculation which had bee made by the member for Berwickshire, the cost of carrying on this bill would be 200,0001., which would therefore only leave 181,0001. for education in England and Wales, Lord PALMEItSTON said that the amount voted this year would be applied as it had formerly been under the directions of the Committee of Council. With re gard to the measure before the house, he should suggest that the house should not waste its time in contending whether the bill ought to be discussed or not, but that it should at once proceed to the prac tical question, and consider the principle it involved, for surely there were amendments enough on the paper to occupy mucb valuable time. After some further discussion the amendment was withdrawn. (LEFT SITTING.) THE DISTURBANCES IN HYDE-PARK. At the Marlborough-street Police -court this evening, Mr. Hardwick said at that late hour (a quarter to six) it was impossible to go into each individual case. He should, therefore, admit the whole of the prisoners to bail, to appear to-morrow. ASSAULT ON THE REDAN AND THE MALAKIIOI.7 BATTERIES. - CAMP ABOVE SEBASTOPOL, JUNE 19. The following is a diary of events of the last three lays. It will be seen the attack against the Rtdan and M.alakhoff was not so successful as had been anticipated, but the temporary failure will no doubt within a very brief period be replaced by events of a more favourable character. They must shortly be gained possessio❑ of, by a repetition of assault, or by other operations. JUNE 16.—Captain John Vaughan, of the 38th Regi ment, while posting some advanced sentries in front of the left attack last night, received a mortal wound through the body from a rifle ball. Captain Vaughan was one of the most active officers in his regiment, and a general favourite. There has been a tolerably active fire kept up all day from various parts of the lines. The Russians on the right have chiefly directed their efforts against the Mamelan Vert, scarcely a shot has been thrown at the new works near the Quarry. The day has been very hot, and is followed by a close evening. Many of the cannon shut thrown by the Russians during the last few days have been recently cast. The surface is quite free from rust, and bears marks of being finished by employment of filing. It is suspected that a foundry has been established on the north side of Se bastopol, and that the shot thrown by us into the town and fOrtifications are by its means turned to account against us. The calibre of the Russians is greater as compared with the calibre of our guns of relative size, so that we are unable to use the Russian shot, and they could use ours, only with considerable loss in power and accuracy on account of the windage. It is not impro bable therefore that they have resorted to the practice of melting down and recasting the iron obtained from our shot, and thus saved themselves the delay and difficulty of transporting others through the Crimea. Rear-Admiral Sir E. Lyons returned with his fleet on the 15th to Kazatch ; on the evening of the 16th the night attack by the steamers on the sea defences of Sebastopol began, all the steamers going in and dis charging their broadsides, so that some eight or nine vessels thus harass the Russian vessels very much. The plan for their goieg - in is, I believe, on a method proposed by Lord Clarence Paget, but subsequently improved by lights pieced in certain positions by Cap tain Spratt, of her Majesty's surveying-ship Spitfire, who anchored the Spitfire at ten pen. off the shoal that extends from the west point of Streletska Bay. At half-past ten the Tribune slowly crept into the as signed position, and opening her broadside poured into the Quarantine Battery her shell ; she was enabled to do this twice before the apparently just woke-up enemy could return her fire. Passing out, she was fol lowed by the Highflyer, Miranda, Niger, Viper, Snake, Weazer, and two or three French steamers, at intervals of 20 minutes, thus occupying the attention of the Rus sians, and keeping their batteries manned all night. The Danube, with two launches from Royal Albert, also went in boldly to about 1,200 yards, and threw 24 and 12 inch rockets into the town and shipping. It was a dead calm and black night ; the discharging of the broadsides, the blaze of fire, the illumined sky from the rockets, and bursting of shell on the parapets of Qua rantine Battery, with the cross fire from the Russians, apparently cutting our vessels to pieces, made it a grand night scene. lam glad to say that our vessels sus tained no injury whatever. JUNE 17.—The bombardment opened at break of day. A rocket from one of the French batteries oil the right of Careening Bay was the signal, and was followed im mediately by a heavy fire, which began at the right, and soon extended along the lines as far as the left of the Greenhill attackr The French batteries beyond did not open a general fire. The Selirghinsk Redoubt—the "Redoubte Blanche as the French have called it, from its parapets—had been fullyarmed, as well as the Mame lon, and both were now pouring a continuous fire into the batteries which appear as it above the shore on the west of Careening Bay and into the Malakhoff Tower work. The new battery made by our engineers above the Quarry, containing four mortars and three long 32- pounders, was throwing a raking fire into a battery, known as the Mud Battery, on the proper right (our left) of the Korniloff Bastion and the ruin of the Malak hoff Tower. The Russian batteries replied with energy. The Garden B Ateries en the left of the South harbour were also very active against us, and surprise was expressed that arrangements had not been made with the French works on the left for keeping these in check. The wind blew from a north-easterly direction, and car ried the smoke from the right along the batteries and across the ravine, in which it lodged like a thick mist towards the left. So dense was the cloud of smoke that the Greenhill attack was not visible to a spectator taking his position on the right, excepting at rare intervals, when either a temporary slackening of the fire or a freshening of the breeze for a few minutes cleared the obstruction away. Nov.' and then this dense veil com pletely hid the whole line of batteries ; and the darting flames and thick curling volumes of white .smoke alone pointed out the position of some of the guns. 7 A.M.—The fire has continued to rage furiously. The Redan is nearly silent ; one gun opens from it occasion ally. Four pins are still open in the works on the Ma lakhoff hill, :wo in the Korniloff Bastion before the ruin of the tower, and two in the battery on the right (our left) of it. The French have appeared to suffer sewerely in the redoubt on the Ivlamelon Vert. The large line of beetle ships remain silent. 10 A.M.—Three rockets have just been fired by the French from the Victoria redoubt. They are generally opposed to be a sigra!, but the object is quite unknown. The. fire both en our side and on that of the French has slackened during the last le:if-hour. The Ruseian bat teries are almost silent. The Medan has not fired for nearly three-quarters of an hour. 1P 31 —Fire still slack. Three rockets just fired from the Victoria Redoubt. 2 P. 31. —The fire has suddenly assumed redoubled energy. The French have opened all their batteries on the left. From the heights near the Inkerman valley a good view is obtained of the Russian positions on the north side. In each camp troops are to be seen drawn up in columns. Two small bodies are marching in a direction towards the roadstead, and one has nearly arrived at the usual point of embarkation fur crossing to the south side. A long convoy of waggons is slowly wending its way along the brow of the mountain raising a cloud of dust as it moves towards the Star Fort. The French say they have received notice that it is probable the assault will take place at four this after noon. 10 pee).—The fire from the batteries was kept up with energy throughout the afternoon, and lasted till the day light t ii2appeared. Seen from the heights above Sebas topol, the sunset wore all the appearance usually pre sented during a thick fog. As it sank into the sea, a reddened glare was cast through the atmosphere of smoke, and over the distant hiLs. The guns shortly afterwards ceased their fire, and the accumulated haze gradually disappeared. The men's rations were ordered to be cooked and issued this afternoon for te-morrow, and is is no longer a secret that a grand attack is contemplated against the whole line of batteries, from the Malakhoff to the Barrack battery, defending the Karabelnai suburb. Tee utmost confidence is expressed by the highest authorities of suc cess. The French are to storm the Maiakhoff hill and works with a total force of 25,000 men ; the English the Redan and Garden batteries, with 8,000 troops. The following are reported to be the arrangements agreed upon between the allies. The bombardment is to be renewed at daylight, and the whole power of artillery in the batteries exerted against the enemy's works. It is calculated that after 4 hour,' firing the enemy's positions will be rendered as practicable as they are likely to be made by gunnery. At a given signal the French are to ad vance against the Malkhoff, it being essential that this point should be at least engaged, if not occupied, before the attack on the Redan is undertaken. A consider able number of guns on the right of the Malakhoff cover ' the Redan, but the Redan does not bear on the Male khoff. The Engiish troops are particularly not to show themselves in the trenches, so that the enemy supposing the assault to be confined to the Malakhoff-hill, may be diverted from concentrating a force to defend the Redan. The attack against the Redan is to be made by three storming columns. They are to be under the command of Lieut.-General Sir George Drown. The columns are to he composed of men from the Light, Fourth, and Se cond Divisions. The columns from the Light and Fourth Divisions are simultaneously to attack the two flanks of the Redan ; the Light Division assaulting the left flank, the Fourth Division the right flank. When these are carried, and a lodgment effected, the column of the Se cond Division is to attack the salient angle, and to make a road there for the entrance of the working parties. If a retrenchment be found within the work, it is to be converted into part of •the cover ; if none exist, the working parties will at once establish the necessary pro tection. Ea..;11 storming column Li to consist of 400 men, and to have a support of 800 men. Reserves will be in the trenches. The working parties will be 400 stron.z for each column. The columns attacking the two flaiiks will be each preceded by a covering party of 100 rifle men. There will also be an officer of Engineers, with some Sappers and Miners, a body of men of the Rifle Brigade, carrying woolsacks, and a body of sail,rs cat rying scaling ladders. These two columns are to be formed in the Quarry outwork, the trenches connected with it, and leading toward the Redan, and also the renches made by the Russians to the right. The column of the Fourth Division is to assemble on the left of the Quarry work, to be nearest to the right flank of the Redan ; that of the Light Division on the opposite side. The first brigade of the Light Division will furnish the assaulting column, support, and working parties. The second br:gade are to form the guard to the trenches to-night, and the reserve to-morrow. This storming column is to be under the immediate command of Lieut.- Colonel Lysons, 23d Regiment, and is to consist of 200 men of the 23d and 200 of the 34th Regiments. Colonel Yea, of the 7th Fusiliers, is to act as brigadier-general in the Light Division attack ; and General Codrington is to assume temporary command of the whole division, while Sir George Brown commands the general attack. The storming column from the Fourth Division is to consist wholly of men of the 57th Regiment, and to be under the command of LieutSColonel Shadforth. Capt. Peel, R.N., will command the naval contingent. Sir G. Brown is to be in the 8-gun battery in rear of the second parallel, right attack ; Field Marshal Lord Raglan is to take up a position in another battery of the same at tack. The signal for the British assault is to be a flag hoisted in the 8-gun battery. A brigade of the Third Division, under Major-General Eyre, is to make an attack upon the Garden Battery, on the west side of the south harbour. It is to consist of the 18th, 38th, and 44th Regiments. The 10th Hussars have received orders to hold them selves in readiness for special service. Fifty troopeis from each regiment of the Cavalry Division, excepting the [oth, are to move to the front at daybreak. It is generally supposed that a simultaneous movement will take place in the plain, that a part of the Sardinian and French forces encamped there will cross the Tchernaya river and attack the Rossian position on the Joker man mountain, and so draw off part of the troops on the north side, which might otherwise be brought across to reinforce the garrison of Sebastopol. It is presumed the 10th Hussars are to act in conjunction with this force. It is also asserted that the French will make a feigned movement on the left, taking ad vantage of any circumstances which may offer them selves. Another rumour states that the fleet will effect an entrance into the roadstead, and assist the land forces. The First Division is to move to the front at an early hour and form a second reserve. Such is supposed to be the general plan of the attack. JUNE 18, 8 a.m.—A few lines will suffice to describe the result, so contrary to what was anticipated, of the assault upon the Malakhoff and Redan. It is a subject that no Englishman can wish to dwell upon ; for although the same indo m itabl e courage was exhibited that shone forth so conspicuously in the fatal charge at Balaklava, it was displayed to as little purpose, and was attended by a like disastrous sacrifice of life. Shortly before 3 a.m. the attacking columns, supports, and reserves, being in their respective positions in the trenches, before the sun bad risen to dissipate the dense vapours which a slight breeze from the eastward failed to remove, and just as the batteries were expected to open in full force, a sudden fire of musketry between the Malakhoff works and the Mamelon attracted universal attention. The long lines of ambulance mules of the French were only commencing to thread their way through the ravines to the scene of intended attack, lead ing troop of the cavalry expedition from below was just appearing in sight, the reserve of Guards and High landers had not yet arrived. A musketry attack was least of all expected at that hour. The Russians had advanced by the left of the Malakhoff hill, and taking advantage of the uncertain light of the early dawn had made a sortie against the French in their ad vanced trenches on the Mamelon. The sortie was repulsed ; and had it ended here the chief points in the programme of the day's events need not have been interfered with. But by a fatal mistake the success in repelling the sortie was at once followed up, and, seizing the temporarary advantage, the repulse became converted into an attack upon the Malakhoff itself. Some of the French troops mounted the hill, others, pursuing the Russians who had made the sortie, followed them to the gorge of the work, and thus actually gained admis sion into the work itself. Now the error was discovered; the Russians showed themselves in overpowering num bers, and but few of our Allies who bad gained admis sion into the works of the Malakhoff effected their escape. At the same time the enemy crowded upon the parapets and - poured a deadly rifle fife into the troops attempting to mount the hill, while grape and canister were dis charged from field-pieces placed in commanding positions. Our Allies were absolutely forced to retire within the protection of their advanced trench. Before this shelter had been obtained, and while the troops were fighting within and around the Malakhoff, the flag was hoisted in the 8-gun battery. Late in the day previous the arrangement respecting the composition of the storm ing column under Colonel Lysons had been changed. Instead of 200 men from the 23d Fusiliers and 200 men from' the 34th Regiment, the column was to consist wholly of men of the 34th Regiment, the number remaining the same. This involved other changes in the composition of the supports and work ing parties. The storming column from the Fourth Division remained as before arranged. The signal for the assault was no sooner given then it was perceived, and at once these brave men left their shelter in the trenches. Just what the Russians were waiting for : the columns bad no sooner shown themselves than the fire from above opened. It was a raging storm, an in cessant rain of grape and rifle balls. The dead and wounded strewed the ground"; it was a miracle how any escaped. On the left, Col. Shadforth had fallen ; on the right, Col. Lysons, wounded in the knee, found himself close to the deep fosse, but, out of his 400, with not more than 40 around him. Neither the woolsacks nor the ladders were at hand, but that was a matter of little import, for the parapets were covered with dense lines of the enemy, and on every side the deadly grape swept down its victims. The Redan was filled with troops. Supports sent to the storming parties could not be of any avail, and nothing was left but to retire, with the hope of renewing the attack at a more season able opportunity. The deaths of Brigadier-General Sir John Campbell, Colonel Lacey Yea, and Colonel Lysons is a serious loss to the whole army. The 57th had their colonel and two officers killed, and seven officers wounded. The 34th had four officers killed and four wounded. The 33d Regiment had four officers killed .and two wounded. The 7th Fusiliers had one officer killed and nine or ten wounded. In the Rifle Brigade two officers were killed and three wounded. Lieutenant-Colonel Mundy, of the 33d Regiment, who was lately wounded in the shoulder, and left the sick list to take his share in this attack, received a gunshot wound near the hip. Lieutenants Valentine Bennett and Langford Heyland, of the same regiment, were killed ; Lieu tenant-Colonel Johnstone lost his left hand, and Captains Quayle and Thomas Wickham were badly wounded, the former, it is feared, mortally. Major- General Jones, of the Royal Engineers, who was in the S-gun battery in the right attack, received an inkfry in the forehead from a stone driven from the parapet by a round shot, and suffered from profuse bleeding. In the same battery Captain George Browne, of the 88th Regiment, had his right arm carried off by a round shot. The same shot killed two men at his side. Lieut.-Colonei Tylden, of the Royal Engineers, a most valuable officer, had both his thighs pierced by a rifle ball, the bone ou one site, it is said, being broken. The brigade under Major-General Eyr@ carried the work against which their force was directed, but have been unable to take advantage of their success, in con sequence of the failure in the attack upon the Redan. They are, indeed, for the present prisoners in the battery they have taken ; they are unable to leave it without being exposed to a deadly fire. Their loss is not known but one or two messages have been managed to be sent. The Huh Regiment has particularly suffered. Fears are also expressed respecting General Eyre. The regi ments will not be able:to quit until darkness has arrived. Altogether, our loss, it is calculated, will amount to between fifty and sixty officers killed and wounded. The number of men killed and wounded is not known. I Many bodies are still lying on the ground near the Redan. Some of the wounded have contrived to creep in to our trenches : among others, an officer who first fell wounded at the ditch o the Redan. Ho held up a white pocket handkerchief, as a signal that he rendered himself, but the Russians standing on the parapet fired a volley, and again wounded him in the chest. The Russians must have suffered severely, for the shot and shell fell thickly in the Malakhoff batteries and Redan, while the enemy crowded the woiks. About 5 a.m. some very heavy firing was heard on the extreme left, and it was generally attributed to hroad sides from our fleet. A hope was suddenly felt that they had forced their way through the sunken ships at the mouth of the roadstead, and would soon divert the fire from the Russian steamers, which were making severe havoc in the French columns near the Mamelon. But in a short time the fire ceased, arid the hope was dissi pated. The expected attack on the right, by the army in the plain, against the Inkerman heights, was also eagerly listened for, but nothing was heard, and it has since been ascertained that it did not take place. Two Russian battalions crossed from the north side after the attack had commenced. The detachments of cavalry which had been ordered up to the front, and which it•was supposed had been re served for protecting °ill- right flank against any ap proach of the enemy, or assisting in some movement in that direetion, as it turned out were intended only to prevent spectators fro& advancing to obtain a view of the engagement. They extended themselves in a line across the sloping ground from Greenhill to the Careen ing Bay ravine, and kept back from passing this barrier many an anxious visitor from Balaklava and elsewhere. Two great mistakes appear to have influenced the whole of this attack. The first was in permitting the enemy by the early sortie to divert us from the original plan of the undertaking ; the second, an over confidence in our own strength and resources as com pared with those of the enemy. Had the bort;bardment from the batteries taken place the enemy would pro-, bably have supposed it would continue all day, and withdrawn, a great part of his troops, for their security, from the neighbourhood of the works. The failure is more than ever to be regretted at the present moment, when, beyond all doubt, the spirit of the enemy had become depressed by their reverses in the Sea of Azoff. JUNE 19.—The success of yesterday induced the enemy lass night to make a sortie in force against our advanced works and those of the French. At half past 12 o'clock a tremendous fire of musketry opened, and the divisions in front were called under arms. The fire c-ased, however, without their assistance being required. No particulars are known beyond the fact of the Rus sians being gallantly repulsed. Their loss must have been great as they retired from the fire of the batteries. The Guards and Highlanders gave the greater part of the trench duties in the right attack. It, is currently stated that an expedition consisting of a force of Sardinians and French, together with 500 men cf our 10th Hussars, is to start to-day in the direc tion of Mackenzie's farm. The 10th Hussars were under orders last night to move to the plain about two hours before daybreak this morning. On Friday a court-martial assembled on board the Waterloo flagship at Sheerness, to try David Smith, an assistant-engineer of the third class (acting) borne on the books of the Rhadamanthus, ou the following charges :-1. For absenting himself without leave, and neglect of duty. 2. For neglect of duty, drunkenness, and attempting to jump overboard. 3. For drunken ness and being incapable of doing his duty, and for using disgusting language to his brother officers. Mr. J. Belau), master of the Rhadamanthus, prosecuted. The Court was composed of the following officers—viz. : Commodore Christopher Wyv ill, Captain-Superintendent of Chatham yard ; Captain John Jervis Tucker, Super intendent of Sheerness yard ; Captain Thomas L. Mas sie, in command of the Powerful, 84 ; Captain James J. Stopford, in command of the Calcutta, 84 ; Captain Lord Frederick Kerr, in command of the Waterloo ; Capt. Arthur Cumming, in command of the floating bat tery Glatton ; and W. W. Hayward, acting as Deputy- Judge-Advocate. The decision of the Court was to the following effect :—That the Court, after very maturely considering the evidence adduced, were clearly of opinion that all three charges were proved, but, in consideration of the prisoner having already undergone the comman der's puni s h ment on the f i rst two charges, ho was re leased from them ; and for the third charge the Court sentenced the prisoner to be committed to the county gaol at Maidstone for four months, and to be kept at hard labour during that period. THE DEMONSTRATION IN HYDE PARK. The scene which took place yesterday in Hyde-park will long be remembered by those who witnessed it. Three o'clock was the anvertised time for the proceed ings to begin, anti, notwithstanding that Sir Richard Mayne had had placards ,posted in the metropolis, an nouncing that the meeting would not be allowe'l to take place, long before that hour Constitution-hill and the walks in St. James's-park were literally crowded by thousands who were all wending their way towards Hyde-park. By half-past two o'clock there must have been nearly 150,000 men, women, and children present. Many, judging from their dress, were of the respectable class. The proceedings commenced by a man, whose name -did not transpire, getting up and commencing an address. He said that he had been invited to accompany Lord Robert Grosvenor to church that morning. He went ac cording to the printed invitation, but, instead of having the honour of accompanying his lordship to church, be found, after wait'ng some time, that his lordship had left town the previous day in a hired carriage, because he was afraid to take his own, lest he might be known. Now, he would just ask if any man, with the least grain of common sense, seeing that such was the obnoxious nature of the bill he had introduced, dare to get up in the house and assert that it was his intention to persevere in forcing the measure down their throats ? What was the feeling of the metropolis on the subject ? Let any member of the House of Commons who was in favour of pushing the bill forward look at the respectability of that vast assemblage, who, by their presence, showed their disgust at the measure, which, he had no hesitation in saying, would ruin thousands. His lordship could not see the necessity that existed for closing the club -houses, which were at all hours open for the accommo dation of the nobles of the land, the clergy, and bishops, because he had not interfered with the halfpenny steam boats. He was determined to do all that he could to prevent the bill passing ; and, although he did not like to do anything that would cause a disturbance, he was not so timid as the noble lord was who bad brought in the bill, to go out of town and have his town residence guarded by 200 policemen. That he knew to be a posi tive fact ; and, more than that, even his lordship's bro ther, the Marquis of Westminster, had a similar number of constables hidden in his mansion to protect his pro perty. He maintained that there was not a man in London among the working classes who entertained the least hostility towards his lordship, but the present meet ing ought to show that they never would receive the coercive measure he bad brought forward. The people here commenced to cheer, when a cry of " the police" was raised. At that moment some 30 or 40 police off - cers came marching towards the spot, but before the officers had time to get there the speaker had succeeded in getting away. A great number of men, on finding that the man was not allowed to address them, commenced hissing and hooting at the police, and tome cried oat, "Down with the crushers !" This gave rise to an extraordinary scene of confusion,—some of the men commenced knocking the constables' hats off, and to protect themselves, the men were obliged to use their truncheons with consi derable force. A man named Russell was knocked down by-a. policeman, and his head was laid open. He was conveyed to theßoyal Humane Society's receiving -house, where his wounds were dressed. A. little child, six or eight years old, was forced down by the crowd, trampled upon, and so much injured that it was deemed necessary to remove it to St. George's Hospital. Several carriages containing company, but nothing like the number in the ride last Sunday, came in sight, when every one present commenced crying out, "Go to church," and " Take your horses out." The police, finding that this frightened the horses, commenced seiz ing those who uttered the expressions. In returns the crowd laid hold of the officers, and endeavoured to take their prisoners away, when the constables resorted to moat vigorous measures, and several ppor misguided fellows were struck over the head and the back of the neck so violently that the blood gushed forth. They were at once taken to the temporary lockup at Mr. Hanbury's, the head park-keeper's, when they were handcuffed and kept in custody until a sufficient number of cabs could be procured to convey them to the Vine street station, Piccadilly. About 4 o'clock not fewer than seven cabriolets started for the station, each containing prisoners, some of whom were sadly injured by the truncheons of the police. As the cabs left the park, escorted each by a body of police, the officers were groaned at, but no rescue took place, although several attempts were made. Sir R chard Mayne and Superintendents Gibbs (B), Walker (N), and Inspectors Banks and Darkin (A), with Inspector Brennan (G), and several others, had the entire control of the police. 'Many of the constables were in different parts of the park, and were not called tolmake their appearance until it was deemed abso lutely necessary to have the whole force at hand upon the scene of action. The moment the men came upon the ground they were groaned at and pelted with stones, which some of the spectators had taken care to fill their pockets with. Ono man, al though repeatedly warned, continued to pelt the police as he stood on the bank of the Serpentine, and being aided by others standing near, a large number of officers went forward to clear that part of the park, when the man, seeing that he was likely t o be taken, leaped into the Serpentine, and had swam about half way over the river when he showed every in iication of sinking. Mr. Deputy-Superintendent Per sons, of the Royal Humane Society, at once put off in a boat and rescued the man, when he was forthwith claimed by the police as their prisoner. He was locked . up in the temporary station in the park, and afterwards removed to Vine-atreet station-house. Shortly before 5 o'clock the crowd assumed such a threatening aspect that it was found necessary to send ,ff for further reinforcements of police, and in a very short space of time a large body of the M and L division ,onder the command of IWspectOr Harinsworth,;;;;;i to Vine-street-station to guard the place while the con stables of the regular division were sent to Hyde-park. One man, finding that it was utterly impossible to ad dress the crowd in that partof the parks which the police :lad in chArge, proceeded to the public path leading to Albeit-gate, and commenced speaking in something like the following terms, noise being so great it was hardly possible to take a corr ec t no t :—" Men of Old Eng ,and ; awake, rise from your slumbers, or be for ever Fallen 1 We are determined to have nothing to do with Lord Robert Grosvenor's 'send us to church bill.' Oppose it every succeeding Sunday, as you have done to-day. The meeting yonder will make his lordship tremble when he sees the morning papers to-morrow, and, if on Wednesday next he persists, the remedy lies in your own bards. Let me advise you to be temperate, but firm ; don't fear to demand your just rights and orivileges, but throw off the shackles of oligarchical op pression and misrule. If you do not I tell you, you will be irretrievably oppressed and ruined. Is it no: a pity that the inhabitants of this grest metropolis— the greatest in the civilized world—should have their liberties placed in the hands of my Lord Robert Gros venor and such men as Lord Ebrington ? Then let us to a man be up and doing. I see a great number of women present, but if you do act oppose this obnoxi ous bill, take ray word you will receive a second edi tion of my friend Douglas Jerrold's curtain lectures. I would ask you whence come war and fighting among you? Simply from having such bigotsin the house as Lord R. Grosvenor—a good man, no doubt. But we won't he coerced ; we won't go to church because he says we must, unless, we like to go. Look at the present war ; is it not carried on at the expense and the sacrifice of blood of the productive classes? (" Yes.") I main tain that everything the industrial classes have lost has been through such men as Lord Grosvenor. I would, therefore, recommend thlt you should accompany me to his lordship's house—it is only in Park-lane, I mean near Grosvenor-gate—and ask his lordship whether he has made up his mind to withdraw this horrible, and depresing bill." The speaker quoted several pas sages of Scripture to enforce his argument, and said, " Princes are rebellious, and (so is Lord Robert Gros venor) companions of thieves. Understand me cor rectly—l mean the man who ro b s ano th er o f a Sun day's dinner when he is not paid till, perhaps, the morn ing of that day. His -lordship wants to drive us to church and make us religious by act of Parliament; but it won't do, and we are determined to oppose the men sure." Just at this time Mr. Superintendent Gibbs awl Mr. Inspector Sitnrnonds, of the B division, having been noticed moving along the carriage road, led the speaker to believe that they were about to pounce upon him. Upon this he quitted his position and ran away, the crowd, who had surrounded him, crying out, " Well, he is a jolly parson after all." • By 8 o'clock the immen4e crowd began to leave the park, but many had previously left to see Lord Robert Grosvenor's town house. From inquiries made at 9 o'clock last night at the Vine street Police-station the reporter was informed that not fewer than 104 persons who had taken part in the riot ous proceedings had been lodged in the cells of the sta tion. They will be taken before the magistrate at Marl borough -street this day. At St. George's Hospital it was ascertained that seven or eight persons had been bronuht in, who were severely injured, and who, after their wounds were dressed, were taken away in the custody of the police. A man named Thomas Page, a bricklayer, of Lisson grove, received a severe injury to his ankle. This demonstration is to be repeated, at least so some of the speakers stated, next Sunday. MONSTER MEETING AT GREENWICH=PARK. A variety of proclamations had been for some days circulated in the neighbourhood of Greenwich, convening a great meeting at the Observatory, in the Park, at three o'clock. At the appointed hour about ten thousand persons assembled, and ineffectual efforts to address the meeting were made by several individuals ; their exer tions, however, were restrained by the iuterferenca of the police. WAR WITH RUSSIA.—A most interesting lecture on the " War with Russia" was delivered at the Castle Hotel, Richmond, on Friday evening, by Mr. Gibson, the author of "Memoirs of the Brave." We h ear it is to be repeated at Willis's Rooms, Gil Thursday next, when the band of the Grenadier Guards will a ttend, and play some appropriate music. The lecture embraced all the leading incidents of the war, some of which were beautifully alluded to by the speaker. The lecturer avoided criticism as much as possible, but in speaking of the reverse of the 18th June, he remarked that time was an element to which we paid too little regard, but with the Rus s i ans , as a e had found out to our cost, it was everything. He expressed his belief, after desribing the brilliant and successful attack of the Allies on the Mamelon and the Quarries,that there had been a want of readiness throughout the whole camphign to follow up our successes, trusting to the in domitable courage of our men to achieve what good for tune had frequently placed within our reach.
