LONDON : THURSDAY IVIOrtNING, JULY 28, 1842. The conduct of the Ministers in yielding several ameliorations of our fiscal regulations, the enlight ened language they have sometimes held, the strange despondency and yet abusive language of the anti free-trade journals, and the assurances recently given by several Cabinet Ministers, that the public distress still occupies their consideration, must satisfy every man that the cause of free trade has made a very great progress. If to these circumstances we add the respectful manner in which the Ministers have re ceived the members of the Anti-Corn-Law League, we shall arrive at a strong conviction that the total abolition of the Corn-laws is a question now favour ably entertained, and must ere long be decided in the affirmative. All parties agree that Corn-law abolition verges towards its completion. We are not willing to allow so important a circumstance to pass, without reminding our readers that it has not been brought about by violence. No physical force has been used. Facts have been enunciated, and appeals have been continually made to the good sense of the public. Other causes having as goad a founda- tion, will be, no doubt, equally successful ; and all parties, therefore, may be confirmed in moderation by the example of the advantages of peaceful agitation. To use violence to obtain such an end, is like smash ing an imperfect watch for want of skill to take it to feces and repair it. While we would make this lesson; on the one hand, as impressive for the people as possible, we would, on the other, caution Ministers not to rely on violence never being had recourse to, however much they may provoke it. There is always some • limit to patience. They have no right to count on the people being per petually discreet. That would he expecting in them the virtues of angels, while their rulers are very ordi nary mortals. Itis idle now to tell mankind they must obey the law, unless the law be worthy of obedience. When the subject is discussed in newspaptrs, the law, it is plain, has lost its prescriptive power. That un defined. prejudice . which heretofore gathered around it the accumulated veneration. of ages—teach .genera tion having transmitted to its successor its own in herited conviction of the duty of obedience,. confirmed by its own experience of the advantages of obedience ---is everywhere at an end. Sentimentalists, as well as utilitarians, testify to this when they complain that men seek reasons for their creed, and that faith is limited to what they see. For niters, therefore, now to fancy that the people will continue to obey a • law, however absurd and unjust, simply because it is a law, is to endanger the well-being of society hy re lying on the existence of a sentiment which time has destroyed. We rejoice, indeed, that We do not now • see in . Sir It. PEEL a settled determination to maintain an obnoxious law at all hazards, for though peaceful agitation promises success, it is quite possible to pro voke a just, determined, and violent resistance. If ever a law justified a violent resistance, the Corn law does. How unimportant is the freedom of the press compared to freedom of trade ? What are the rights of conscience compared to the right to eat ? What is the value of a right to property in land com pared to the right to have the -food which a man can earn ? The right of self-preservation is at stake, and the law which keeps food from the people invokes against it the first law of nature. By whom, too, is the law passed ? By an ungrateful aristocracy, who are maintained in idleness and splendour by the toils of the people they would starve out of existence. They are not satisfied with their own wealth, not satisfied with almost fabulous splen dourseek for greater possessions ; they must greedily at the expense of the poor. • Both the nature of the law, and the vile conduct of those who make it, pro voke resistance; and were there no signs of repent ance and concession we should despair of the public peace and public welfare. - It is quite impossible, indeed, that those who have stigmatized the law as an iniquity, and denounced it as a robbery can fail to carry out their doe trines to their appropriate conclusion. Men cannot peacefully submit to stigniati4ed robberyiuid wrong 3. y, 13, Greit MarlbOrougl-streef. V3LIJME FO:JR of MAD. D'AIiBLAY'S DIARY and LETTERS, • IS NOW READY.

The world would say that the DisSenting ministers and middle classes who have agitated this queation., were they to stop short of resistAM, Were not sincere, that they hail concealed purpose to serve, and did not believe what they said. But we are assured that such is not the case ; that wide-spread .plans to resist and overturn the particular law, are openly discussed, and will in time, if the law be not abolished by the Le gislature, be carried into execution. There is great danger, then, of provoking resistance ; and while we impress on our readers; on the one hand, the advan tages of peaceful agitation, we must, on the other, caution the lawmakers to beware of persisting in aline of conduct which justifies disobedience to the law. At the Greenwich Police Court yesterd iy, Mr. JEfirstv, the Magistrate, held Mr. M‘DouALE to bail to keep the peace and be of _good behaviour for six months, himself in,so/. and two sureties in 251. each. Why not for all his life, and why not hold every man to bail? We see as much.reason for one as the other, Mr. Mg - Jot:Am.'s offence seems, from What the Magis trate said, to be two .fold ; first, "he went to a meeting called for a specific purpose, and, miens miens, at temptel to introduce some other subject, and to eject the chairman from the chair." That was conduct of all othe:s likely to . create a disturbance: Secondly, he " had been, holding an illegal . meeting at an illegal place, and at an unseasonable hour." With regard to the first offence the evidence we think completely exonerates Mr. M'DouALL. Nobody deposes that' he took an active part in the disturbance in the chapel, or that he went there for any improper pUrpose. On the contrary, it was ex pressly deposed by Mr. JOHN WADE (one of the trustees of the chapel) that it was a public meeting at which all classes were invited to attend ; that he saw nothing improper in Mr. M`DorAEE's conduct, and walked out with him arm in arm. The Magistrate's observations, so far as the first charge is concerned, are wholly unwarranted by the evidence, and seem dic tated by a pre-formed resolution that on such grounds he w ould hold the first Chartist to bail who insisted on discussing the Charter at any meeting called for a different purpose. With respect to he second charge, we also take a different view from Mr. JEE.Exy. Mr. 111`DouALE followed a crowd to the . Broadway, which was directed thither by a spontaneous movement ; .he there spoke to them, and we cannot believe that such a chance assemblage is correctly described as " holding an ille gal meeting." Suppose the people had been sum moned out of the chapel by a report that Greenwich Hospital was on fire, and that Mr. M`DouALE had -gone thither with the . multitude to assist in putting out the flames ; suppose that he had harangued them as to the method they should observe in their proceedings, that surely would not have been an illegal meeting. It was not, therefore, the accom panying a multitude from the chapel to the Broadway, and there speaking to them, that constituted this an illegal meeting. Neither was it the hour, fpr no hour would be un seasonable for a multitude, headed by Mr. M'DouALL, to save from danger the noble home of our worn-out sailors.- Nor can we think the place illegal. A wide space used for stalls, a sort of market of a Saturday night, adjoining a public thoroughfare, but not con stituting a part of it, was a legal and proper place for Mr. M`Doui.w. to speak to his friends. What constituted the illegality of the meeting in the Ma gistrate's eyes was, we are afraid, the tenour of Mr. M'DouALL's language. He spoke, according to the Police Inspector, of the " tyrant aristoeraiy of the country, who are trampling on the rights of the poor man." It was Mr. M'llotALE's sentiments, not his speaking to a number of persons spon taneously collected on a spare piece of ground, which . constituted, we are afraid, the illegality of the meet ing in the eyes of the Magistrate. He was held to bail because he entertains Chartist ophiloos ; and had he at the same spot, and at the same hour, delivered a discourse in favour of the Aristocracy and the State Church, we believe the Magistrate and the Police would only have interfered to protect him from the abuse of the multitude. • We have noticed the cot-Iliad of the Magistrate first, which we must stigmatise as partial and unjust, because his decision wholly exonerated the Police Superintendent, and took all the responsibility of his having locked up Mr. M‘Docm..r. on hiumlf.. Mr. JEREMY, by his decision, justified Mr. MALLILEU. It is the law, according to Mr. JEREMY, and accord- ing, we regret .to - say, to other and much higher authorities, Oat a conservator of the peace, alias a police, or any other constable, may form an opinion whether an assembly of people be illegal or not ; and if he fancies that it may lead to a disturbance of the Ace, it is the law that he may, without warrant or summons, arrest any of the per sons there assembled, drag them down from a pump by force, keep them in prison for a night, and the Magistrate will hold them to bail in 'the morning, Mr. M‘DouALL made no riot, he struck no person, he offered no resistance to the law ; but the far and foreseeing Mr. MALLILEU perceived a breach of the peace in the denunciation of the aristocracy, and therefore he forcibly and violently assaulted and ar rested Mr. M'DOUALL.

" Honoured Sir,—As there are so many Peel-ing ty rants who condemn the doctrines of the Conference, I bare made free to send you two or three quotations from the late Dr. Paley's ' Moral and Political Philosophy,' to demonstrate that Archdeacon Paley, though • dead, still pleads for the famishing millions, in language some what stronger than any member' Of he Cotiferened has ever used. Natural rights,' says Paley, are a man's right to his life, limbs, and liberty ; his right to the produce of his personal labour.' A person is said to have a right to a thing when it is consistent with the will of God that he should have it.' Another right, which may be called a general right, as it is incidental to every man who is in a situation to claim it, is the right of extreme necessity, by which is meant, a right to take, when it is necessary for our own preservation to do so, the first food,. clothes, or shelter, we meet with, when we arc in danger of perishing through Want of thein.' ' Among men you see the ninety-and-nine toiling, getting nothing for themselves all the while but a little of the coarsest of the yrovisions which their own industry produces, looking quietly on while they see the fruit of all their labour spent or spoiled ; and if one of the num ber take or touch a particle of the hoard, the others join ing against him and hanging him for the thefa' 1(10 not say that the above are my doctrines, or the doctrines of the Conference, but I do say that they have more truth it in them many o than e 0 1; o gainsay.rsthis Go forward, dear Sir. ‘h your great and of Corn-law repeal. good work • " W. .FERGSON. " Bieester, Qxon, July 26, 1842. • Mr. Alderman CHAPPEL said he wished to mention one or two facts to the meeting. ~A number of gentle men had yesterday had an interview with Sir j. - Graham, which had lasted upwards of two hours. Sir J. Graham in the course of the conversation, strongly insisted on the fact that ninety-one new factories bad been built since the year 1837, as a proof that our manufactures had not declined to the extent that many seemed to have sup posed. To that observation of Sir J. Graham he (Mr. Alderman Chappel) replied that those ninety-one new mills would not give employment to the increased iNnber of our population in a single 'year. He would allow 500 hands for each mill (and he was sure that allowance was a large one), so that the ninety.-one mills built iu foUr years, would give employment to no more than 45,500 hands, while our population increased at the rate of 400,000 a year.—(Hear, hear.) Lord Ripon, in the course of the. interview with him, observed that America could not grow corn for us, even if we were willing to receive it. In reply to that statement, of his Lordship, he (Mr: Alderman Chappel). had' said that all the 'manufacturers of this country wanted vas that the trial should be made. It was evident that the Improve ments in the agriculture of this country could not keep pace with the increase in out population. They should, therefore, look for supplies of food from other countries upon terms advantageous to all parties.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Alderman BROOKES, of Manchester. said that he had been fur years in the habit of expressing his oppo sition to the Corn-laws ; and he remembered that some time ago when he advocated a total repeal, lie was told by many that he asked for too much, that he sho . old consent to o Compromise with the landed interest , and be .satis tied 'with an Bs. or a lOs. fixed duty. But the very same parties were now assuring hiin that even a total repe a l of the Corn-laws would not be sufficient to relieve the coun cry from the present depression of its trade. He would eecommend every Mend of repeal to bury all party dif ferences, to bury the terms Whig and Tory.—(hear.) What had political differences to do with their proced ings ? For his part, he did not care whether Sir Peel or 'Lord J. Russell were in office, provided he could obtain justice from either. If Sir R. Peel were the better man to-day, he should suppOrt him ; and if Lord John Russell were the better man to-morrow, he should have his support,---(Hear, hear.) Yes, he was ready to slide about, quicker even than Sir Robert Peel's slid ing scale.—(Loud cheers and laughter.) The aris tocracy, .he contended, were but the plunderers of the people. They were increasing their own incomes by 20 per cent., at the expense of a distressed and suf fering people. He believed.that this country could not much longer. bear the oppressive weight ',o the Corn laws: He felt assured that they should be. repealed, or suspended during the approaching itinter, He himself had of late found his business in the home marltet ra pidly declining, and he had been thus obliged to export mime largely to foreign countries. But still he had been compelled of late to glue hig man but four days' employ ment in the week. He found that there had been 3,000 bags of cotton less consumed last year in this dotintry titan during the year before. It was his conviction that if the Corn-laws were not speedily repealed they would ruin the trade of the country We could not do without a foreign trade—(lleac, hear)- , alid since we could not do without it, the want of it would ruin tiglaild, •It • was not the corn monopoly alone they had to complain. of ; there were also monopolies of sugar, coffee, and various other articles. The monopoly in sugar especially was monstrous. If no dutt were imposed on foreign sugar it could be sold here for 41d. per lb. in the docks, and for sd. per lb. to the consumer. But it was said chat it was necessary to protect the West India interest. ,They might, however, depend upon it, as had been said ' - by. Colonel Thompson long since, that protecting one party merely meant robbing another.—(Hear, hear.) And when it was said that the West India planters were protected, it was another way of saying that the public were robbed . for their benefit.—(Hear, hear.) A duty of 25 percent. was imposed on our goods in the'Brazils, while we impOsed a duty of 392 per cent. on their sugar. It was alleged, however, that it was not desirable to admit Brazilian sugar at a low duty into this country, lest we should thereby offer an encouragement to slavery. Now, he wad no advocate for slavery; but he verily ,be lieved that the negroes of the Brazils were better off-than many of our unfortunate people. Ile. was convinced that if the extent and the depth of the .national 'distress were fully known to her Majesty's. Ministers, they could not be aware of it without trying at once every possible means for its removal. If the Devil was in them they could hot .stand it.—(Laughter.) He really believed that Sir Ro bert Peel would repeal the Corn laws at once, if he found that in doing so he would be supported by his party. The new Corn law, lie was persuaded, was not in any way more favourable to the consumer dine the old one. The present measure was more strin gent in its operation than the preceding one and be had been told by many speculators that if the law had not been altered, we should now have foreign corn intro duced at a duty of is. 'Attend of Bs.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. AsilWoittit nest adtifemd the meeting, and pro ceded- to • detail the interviews which WA pleoe with Lord Stanley, Lord •Wharncliffe, and Sir J. Graham, and whieli were given in Time Sun of yesterday. The Hon. Otintlethati commented upon the different observa tions which had been made by these Ministers, and dwelt upon .the satisfactory manner hi which they were met by the different metnbers who composed the deputa tion. The lion.

He had I great hopes from the perseverance and industry of the English people. He believed there was no part of the world which did not owe many of its comforts to the in dustry of the English natiOn.--.(Hear; heat'.) Of such a people, possessed of such energies, he had great hopes but when he saw their interests neglected by the House of Commons, and that it did not respond to the wants of the people, he confessed he felt apprehensions to which he•would scarcely dare to give expression.—Cheers. In reply to a question from Mr. EDWARDS, Dr. Bownnta said, that the greater portion of the supplies were voted, and that it was generally expected the HOOSO would be prorogued this day fortnight. . Mr. EDWARDS said that, in that case, he would move an Address to the Crown, before the Conference separated. He had no doubt that if the people were unanim,.u.;, as they were when the ship-money was demanded, that nothing would be able to withstand thetn.—(Hear.) .Dr. BOWRING remarked, that when the ship-money was sought to be enforced, the House of Commons had then reposed on the feelings of the entire English peo ple. At present there was not such a feeling in Eng land. When he was requested to take extreme mea sures and stop the supplies, he asked of those who so requested him, whether they were ripe for such a mea sure, and the reply was that they were not, but that they were ripening.—(Cheers.) Mr. RAWSON here read to the meeting the speech which he addressed to Sir James Graham on the &wen ,ion of the late deputation from the distressed manufac turers and merchants to the Bight Hon. Baronet. Mr. WILKES, of Leicester, who had addressed the Conference a few weeks ago, declared that trade was worse, and distress greater. He contemplated with the leepest alarm the approach of winter, if there were not some relief to trade, from the repeal ofthe Corn-laws and the removal of the restrictions upon comtnerce.—(Hear )• Mr. Brookes had told the meeting that the landlords were " robbers."—(Hear, hear.) But., about his neigh bourhood, the people called them murderers--(Hear)— and said that the blood of the starved poor was on their ,reads.—(Hear, hear.) Those things were openly said.— (Hear, hear.) He hoped that there would be in his county, Leicester, and in every county in England, an et.tablished " county lectureship," to inculcate, from day to-day, upon the minds of the people, the evils of the Corn-law and the necessity of repealing them.—(Hear.) The meeting then adjourned till 11 o'cloCk to-day. Y. JULY 28, 1842. CII4RTIST CAMP MEETING. On Sunday last, the Chartists held another camp meeting on dronkeyshaw, a few yards beyond the limits • the Co-ough of Rochdale. At the time appointed for the meeting, two o:clock, there were about 1,500 per :ions present ; but by three o'clock they had increased to above 2,000. The speakers, and those who took a lead in the meeting, stood in a waggon which had been brought. upon the common for that purpose. The 'day being extremely fine, there were many females present, who appeared to take considerable interest in what was (voing forward. There appears t o be a most decided 'Change in Chartist politics •, for dcctrines the very oppo site to those of Feargus O'Connor were promulgated by the speakers on Sunday last. One person was at considerab'ce pains to convince his hearers, that the Chartists were determined Corn-law repealers, and nothing would give him greater pleasure than to see an union between these parties (Anti-Corn-law Leaguers and Chartists), upon such a basis that the one cauld not deceive the other. It was their difference on minor points that made their common enemy stron g . He advised them to receive assistance from whatever quar ter it came, and not treat those who wished to give them - their aid, as " repentant pickpockets," They never could expect relief froM Sir Robert Peel, who had told his minions in Parliament, that the God of nature was the cause of the present distress ; and his patron (the Duke of Wellington), who held a place in the Cabinet, but did not consider himself responsible for their deeds, stated that distress was periodical, and could not be prevented. Was it the God of nature that kept 1,500,000 quarters of corn from a starving people, till a heavy tax had been levied upon it, and prevented the industrious man from exchanging his work for food? This would be the case till an end was put to class legis lation, and all those monopolies which enabled the few to plunder the many. The speaker dwelt at considerable length upon the standing army of .100,000 men ; upon the national debt, and the money required every year to pay its interest ; and upon the sums of money regularly spent to improve the morals of the people ; while Whig, Radical, and Tory acknowledged they were growing worse instead of better. About half a dozen persons spoke at greateror less length ; and the meeting broke up at half-past four o'clock. Every person present con ducted himself with great propriety and order, except a drunken man, who came upon the ground, and created some little disturbance. One of the speakers in the waggon said, he understood there were some of the police in disguise present, and he insisted on them' doing their - duty. The man being got. away, order was soon re stored. The Primitive Methodists had a camp meeting at the same time, on the same common, and about 400 or 500 yards distant from that of the Chartists. A constant stream of people were moving from one place to the other, during the afternoon; but the Chartists had by far the greater attendance. The Chairman of the meeting was Mr. John Leach, of Rochdale.—Manchester Paper. OPENING OF CROSBY HALL. This ancient Hall, in Bishopsgate-street, to which so many rich historic reminiscences attach, was opened yesterday evening with an accompanying soiree, on the occasion . of its ,conversion into a literary and scientific institution, an inaugural address being delivered by T. Bell, Esq., F.R.S. the President. The institution con sists collectively Of a suite of apartments, the entrance chamber, or refreshment-room, possessing an excellent organ, and ornamented by a City artist with fresco paint ings, illustrative of the Third of the Plantagenets and his actions. Descending by steps, three rooms con tiguous to the Hall contain specimens of a mu seum which is in course of formation, and in which we observed, en passant, several fine specimens of marine con chology, and geological relics of the antediluvian world, in the shape of huge fragmentary bits of various mega theria , with several of the tortoise and tapir species complete war-skins of African Caffres and Boshmen also embellished the walls. The entire library also, which has been accumulating for three years past, while the in stitution was at Salvador House, consists of five or six thousand volumes. The Hall itself, intended for lee turesi meetings, &c., and which had a doubly-magnifi• cent appearance last night, when the antique beauty of its architecture was enhanced by the attendance of 300 to 600 fashionable and select City people, measures about 60 feet in length, and about 37 in width, containing the usual ranges of raised seats, and terminated at each end by: elevated galleries. Mr. Davies,' the, architect em ployed, has used his best art and taste in restoring its long obscured and time darkened beauties ; for, as the able lecturer on this occasion noted, this hall till within these few days, was put to the vile u ses of it packer's warehouse—a hall. which . had been trodden by princes and merchants, whose roof had resouni2ed to the music of high civic feasts in the days of the fif teenth century; whose floors had re-echoed to the tread of Richard; in which the classic More, a scholar and Chancellor dear to fame and England, had resided and studied; and in which the accomplished Sully, the rich Spencer, and the princely Gresham, had lived or con stantly resorted to. The roof is especially noticeable, as formed of that richly carved Gothic cedar-work, which architecture had so much in vogue in 1472, the period the halt was erected; the elaborately cut arches spring from their stone-work rests or peditnents no less vigo rously than symmetrically. Cuistantly surrounded by such associations as those enumerated above, the mem bers of this institution will involuntarily breathe in a re fined atmosphere of thought and intelligence, such as the annals of history inspire. The youth, the mechan ics, the virtuosi, of the City and its environs, will here, for their almost nominal annual subscription, find constant means of improvement and pleasure, and the Committee cannot be too highly eulogized fur the excellent project which 1 they have thus carried out and perfected in rescuing the venerated hall from desecration and a lumber-room to its present apposite and intellectual purpose. Mr. Bower bank, Mr. Ward, and other influential gentlemen, ho noured the assemblage with their presence. A letter from Palermo, in Sicily, says —" The King, Queen, and Royal Family, having intimated their intention of being present at the approaching celebration of the Feast of St. Rosalie, the Municipality is making preparations for displaying an unusual ma g nificence. '.'he Grotto in Mount Pellegrino, near Palermo, in Which Str Rosalia lived and died, has an altar, above whidll ls statue of the saint, recumbent and iu medita tion, her head et/Waned on her left hand, the right hand holding a crucifix. It is coloured, and dressed in sumptuous attire, the donation of King Charles 111. it Comprises a robe of rich velvet, adorned with a profusion of yearls, which at that time were worth rio,ooof., a diadem, formed of diamonds, and a neck lacti of millique cameos of the highest price ; bracelets of oriental totaq,es . ; diamond rings on every finger , a nd s andals set with amethysts. A statue of the Virgin Mary, of white marble ' at another altar in the Grotto, F~ ill ilso be invested with rt splendid dress, which is being niti44l for the occasion. The (grotto of St. Rosalia is the Gretna - Green of Sicily, for the priest who officiates at the altar is authorised to solemnise marriage between all couplei who come there and desire to be united, provided they take an oath that they are not already bound by matrimonial chains. In general, those who come t o c laim this office do so secretly, or in opposition to heir parents and guardians ; but at the festiv al about to tales place, upwards of 200 marriages between persons who have ob served all the legal formalitieswill be performed,. and among them, it is said, will be some belonging to the most noble and distinguished families of the kingdom.' THE MELOPIIONIC GUITAR.--A concert was given yesterday evening at the Hanover-square Rooms, prin cipally for the purpose of introducing to public notice Id. Barelli's new musical discovery of the Melophonic Guitar, which was played upon. and exhibited by Signor Giulo Regondi. , The novelty appears chiefly to consist iu a refined Melodiousness of the ordinary guitox-strings ; for the body of the instrument is essen tially the same, as also the mode of operation. It s mune, " Melophonic , " or " Melodiously modulated," is exactly expressive of its character. A MS. concert, by Schutz, a Fantasie Elegiaque, and the - Souvenir des Huguenots were each performed upon it by Regondi, and il:ese strings confessedly were proved to be capable of pro ducing much finer and softer i n strumentation ncert w than the often tuneless strings commonly used.

ADDITIONAL PAATICVLAAS OF THE HAM STA RES. The first running was made by the Clara colt, but in dropping the bill Aristides and Mrrat went in front, the former taking the lead at a good pace, keeping. it to the end, and winning easily by. two lengths. The figure 8 (the number of the Victoria colt), was exhibited by mistake,• instead of that of the actual winner, and re mained up for some minutes, greatly to the astonishment and mortification - of the Aristides party. In consequence of the number of stakes, &c.. and the loss of time with the gentlemen rideN, the last heat was not over until seven &chick, making nearly seven hours' racing.

In our report forwarded from the course on Tuesday, we spoke of the precision of the arrangements, taking it for granted that the regulations would be strictly en forced, and that want of punctuality would meet with no favour; had we waited, we should have hesitated to pay a compliment that, in one respect, certainly was not merited. As we have previously stated, time was badly kept, so badly indeed that the Ham Stakes was not run until half past five o'clock, one hour beyond the proper time, a race in heats being still to come off, with the prospect of a second heat for the Welter Stakes. This delay was caused solely by the gentlemen riders, who were obviously of opinion that time was made for slavesi and sauntered up the course to the starting post with a non chalance that mkiht have been amusing enough to those domiciled in 00:immediate neighbourhood, but was quite the revers. tO those whose dinners were ordered at seven, some nine or ten miles away. With respect to the general arrangements, we have only to add that nothing was wanting but the telegraph for the jocldes adopted so successfully at Liverpool ; a new one was completed at Manchester by the direction, of Lord G. Bentinck, and booked on Thursday last by Pickford's van ; it had not reached Goodwood on Tuesday night. DUTCH AND GERMAN PA PERS. THE HAGUE, JULY 25.—Accounts have been received from Java to the 29th of March. The island was per fectly tranquil. Some parts of the island, particularly the Residency of Bagelen, had suffered from great inundations; the waters rose to an extraordinary height, and in many places left slime to the depth of a foot, and it is hoped that the damage which has been done will be subsequently made good by the increased fertility of the soil. Fortunately only two persons lost their lives. The Batavier Journal gives more detailed accounts of the natural phenomena observed in the island of Banda during the eruption of the volcano in the month of. November last year. One of the most singular phe nomena was a commotion of the sea, which continued for three-quarters of an hour. The sea rose in different parts of the Bay of Banda nearly eight or nine feet above the usual level, and then fell as much below it. This occurred repeatedly. UTRECHT, JULY 23.—1 t is said that his Majesty King William Frederick, Count of Nassau, will return to the 1 Hague in October, to be present at the marriage of her Royal Highness the Princess Sophia. MuNicit, JULY 18.—I hasten to give you the joyful information that his Majesty the King has just landed on Prussian ground, having had a very agreeable voyage, with fine weather. PETERSBURGH, JULY 12.—The day before yesterday, on occasion of the anniversary of the birth-day of her Majesty the Empress, mass was performed in the chapel of the Palace of Peterhof, in the presence of their Ma jesties the Emperor and Empress; the King of Prussia, all the Members of the Imperial family, and of the foreign Princes now assembled at the Court, for the solemnity of the 25th anniversary of the marriage of their Imperial Majesties. The Members of the Council of the Empire, the Senators, the grand Officers, the Officers of the guards and of the army and navy, the Court, and numerous persons of distinction of both sexes, were present at this ceremony ; after which their Imperial Majesties re ceived congratulations, and gave audience to M. Mollerus, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipo tentiary of the Netherlands, who had the honour to pre sent his credentials to the Emperor. In the evening there was a grand masquerade at the Palace for the nobility and the merchants, which their Imperial Majesties the King of Prussia, the Prince and Princesses of the Imperial family, and the foreign Princes, honoured with their presence. Among the persons who had the honour to be pre sented to their Majesties before the ball, were Sir Drum mond Stewart, Lord Ingestrie, and Lord Sheffield.. DUTCH FUNW.—AmSTERDAM, JULY 25. Money.

( t. - , -- : / ‘ll.-- (I rom a liampAire Correspondent.) — The above delicate little bird was, some few years a g o, fre quently to be met with in some of the open and champaign a bevy of quails has proved a very dis tricts of Hampshire and Sussex, but within the last few years scarce sight to the sports. man whilst beating for partridges and other game. Last year a few couple of these birds were picked ue on a farm near Beaulieu, a small village situate in the New Forest, in Hamp shire, and during the present season a bevy of them has been noticed on the uplands in the vicinity of A them for a ndover. Acove shep herd's boy, when he first sprang them, took y of young partridges, but a gentleman who had been some years abroad, on catching a glimpse of them as he was passing over the downs a few days since, recognised them to be quails. The late fine weather has, it is most probable, tempted the above diminutive colony to risk a flight over the British Channel from tht south of France and Spaiti, to visit our island. COURT CIRCULAR.

THE LATE DUKE OF ORLEANS - Dr. Duval has published the following account ei the death of the DuNe of Orleans : " When I arrived at the house' where the Prince , lay, M. Not was there, and M. Ley came at the same time that I did. We were the. only medical man about him from half-past eleven till one o'clock. The Prince was stretched on two mattresses. His head, reclined on his chest, waved from side to side as his body was stirred; his respiration was deep and difficult, his eyes half shut. There was no sign o' outward fracture, merely some severe.contusions, with' blood on his right .eye and car.. Bloocl.was first. let, and produced little effect, except that the, Prince tried to remove the band ell his arm from the bleeding. We imagined the Prince might have some conscious ness of his state, but the autopsy had shown this to' be impossible. The violence of the shock bad been such, that if not broken by the disartieulation and breaking of the bone, it would has killed him On the spot. Cold lotions were applied to his head, and . stimulants to the respiratory organs ; friction was employed ; still no sign appeared of intelligence, but merely automatic movements. ":it midday the Royal Family came in. The Queen flung herself at the foot of the bed: never did a mother's grief burst forth in expressions moae full of grief and distraction. The King asked was there a fracture ? We gave a negative answer, though with some hesitation. On this the King tried to console the Queen, stating that accidents of a similar kind had occurred to himself. The patient, however, g.7ew worse. Sixty leeches were applied to the back of tNe head, when the Prince uttered a few fugacious words in German. He tried to tear off the leeches. At half-past one sinapisms were employed ; the pulse became better, but the respiration worse. The in voluntary motion of the limbs ceased, and a con vulsive trembling began. This by degrees subsidml into tension and stiffness. Anxiety and despair were' on every countenance. The Queen, •in agony, sup plicated the Almighty for one gleam of cousciousne3s to be given to her son. She offered her existence for such a boon. The Due d'Aumale—"What will Join vile feel on such news ?' The .King's resignation was more poignant than the louder agony of those around him. The physicians durst not look up; they had no hope to give. Several more physicians arrived ; and at two o'clock the curate of Neuilly • came to give extreme unction to the Prince. Con - vulsions renewed. At three o'clock there was no pulsation but of the carotids. Medication was sus pended : in this the King and Queen saw the an nouncement of the approaching end of their son, rushed towards him embraced him in sobbings, and paid him the last adieus. ' How announce such a. misfortune to Helena!' exclaimed the Queen. At. half-past four the illustrious patient expired."
