• R OYAL ITALIAN OPERA, COVENT - GARDEN. —Madame GRISI. The Directors of the Royal Italian Opera feel the greatest gratifi cation in having it In their power to announce that that most distill 'gulshed artiste, Mme. Giulia Grisi, will again app-ar, for a short pert,d, on the stags of the Lyric Drama. The Directors doling that circumstances had arisen to prevent Mine. Grisi retiring to her residence at Florence, cont •mplatecl a' the termination 4 f her late engagement in the United States of America, and, moreover, that she wonti most probably reside in England the greater portion of the ,resent ) ear, nature) , sought to induce her once more to pm the corps of the Royal Italian Opera, and were in the Dope of being able to have announced their success in the pro gpectias of their season arrangements. The Directors were, how ever, unable to prevail on Mme. Grisi to enter into the engagement, and immediately made propositions to another distinguished artiste to undertake the repertoire which Madame Grisi has so long and so honourably filled. The Directors not having succeeded in these negotiations, again applied to Mme. Grisi to postpone Par a short period her final retirement from the stage. Under these circumstances, Mme. Grisi, with her accustomed kindness, con sented to lend the Directors her invaluable assistance, and they axe now, therefore, enabled to announce that she will sing, during an engagement of ten nights, the principal characters of her well-known. repertoire.

Many sinister attempts have already been made to damage the cause of which Mr. DISRAELI has, at the eleventh hour, stepped forward as the champion. Many serious misrepresentations have been put forward by persons who profess to be animated by a thoroughly English feeling, and an earnest determination to brave all the chances of the War rather than consent to a disgraceful and injurious peace. Many more efforts will doubtless be made to induce Hon. Gentlemen to support the amendment of Sir FRANCIS BARING, and thereby afford further time to Ministers to betray the national interests by assenting to terms dictated by Austria—terms which will leave Russia at liberty to carry out her nefarious attempts on the first favourable opportunity. We emphatically caution Hon. Gentlemen against suf fering themselves to be mystified or misled on this vitally important question. Mr. DISRAELI'S mo tion is practically one of "want of confidence" in the Government. It has been accepted as such, for Ministerial circulars have been sent to all their supporters, urging their attendance on that very ground. It declares that " This house cannot ad journ for the recess without expressing its dissa tisfaction with the ambiguous language and un certain conduct of her Majesty's Government in reference to the great question of peace or War." Now, hero there is not only " the want of confidence " that will no longer trust the conduct of these affairs to a Ministry who have cautiously abstained from giving the full and authentic information which the House and country have a just right to demand, but also an unmitigated censure for their refusal to obtain a correct knowledge of the state of pub lic opinion on the subject of the recent negotia tions constitutionally and legitimately expressed through the representatives of independent con stituencies. Theriiigan be no real or honest doubt As to the result. If the motion be succe3sitil Ministers must resign, and their successors will come into office pledged to a more vigorous and energetic conduct of the War, and to the imposi tion of more onerous terms on the AUTOCRAT. Should —.UTOCRAT. Should it on the other hand be rejected, the Ministers will not only remain more firmly in their places, but they will have obtained the sanction of the popular branch of the Legislature to a Treaty founded on the most trivial modification of prince ,GORTSCIIAKOFF'S latest proposition, or, in other words, a restoration of the status quo, wit tout tlie ' slightest guarantee for the protection l itriatY o fL or testriction of the aggressive propensi t'l".of its unconscientious neighbour--a peace dis grakerd to the Western Powers, and which must speedily be dissolved for a fierce and more deadly contest, Waged under auspices much less propitious for the opp„ ent nof despotism. On this point there " can he no mistake, and there shall be no mistake." The issue i 4 clear and unequivocal. It is,—Are we to ac cept or to reject the conditions 1' tendered by the AUTOCRAT • 1 Now, the amendment of Si r Pa e 13 ARING ' a lthough the la tter p ortion couched th e same words a s to the proprosecutionA- is of in th almost ' is really ve r y different in its practical eir War, e t• It is an encouragement to Ministers to accept any t erms suggested by Austr ia, whose re p rese ntati ll 4 thought that the Russian proposition " contained dements of which Austria would endeavour to avail herself for an understanding." So the lain also think if it accepts the resolution ) , PT°lll4llervra, t (1 to/ thelright Boa, Baronet, who R.. ._~ ~ 't i J: is so closely connected with the eminent firm which acted as the financial agents of the CZAR in the United Kingdom, and of whom it was said that " if a loan were required for the subjugation of Turkey, or the establishment of Cossack domi nation throughout Europe, ' BARING BROTHERS' would speedily raise an adequate loan." It may be said that the question at issue is merely one relating to party predominance, whe ther Lord DERBY or Lord PAL3IERSTON shall hold the Premiership. Appeals will be made to the Free Traders not to do anything calculated to bring back to office those who were once Protec tionists, and who may now be desirous of impos ing new restrictions on trade and commerce. There is, however, far more at stake than any thing relating to the men who may be in power. A principle is involved in which the honour, the welfare, and the stability of the British Empire is concerned, on which will depend the future tranquillity of Europe and its protection from • Muscovite encroachment—the principle, in fact, of whether we shall be contented to permit all the enormous expenditure of money, all the lives of our gallant brethren to be thrown away, without the slightest beneficial result ; whether there shall be the restoration of the status quo without the most trivial compensation for the past or guarani, tee for the future ! It is ridiculous now to raise the bugbear of " Protection" " to fright the Isle from its pro priety." That point has been frankly and un equivocally abandoned, and unrestricted competi tion or " Free Trade" is in far greater danger from the present Ministry than from the quondam Protectionists. Mr. DISRAELI would not have dared to have entered on the retrograde course in which Sir G. C. LEWIS made such rapid progress. He would not have proposed any addition to the duties on tea or sugar, malt or spirits. Nor would he have increased the income tax, with an ominous hint of a further addition, without some attempt at an equitable adjustment. Had he ventured to do so he would speedily have been hurled from office, and his successors could not, for some time at least, have ventured on the obnoxious experiments. We are by no means Derbyites, but seeing that the choice, at present, is restricted to the Whigs, a joint-stock of Whigs and Peelites, or Derbyites, we must say that we infinitely prefer the latter, from whom, while there would be a vigorous waging of the War, and a resistance to Germanism, we should receive more liberal measures than from the present men, while the Whigs in Opposition would be open to conviction, to which they are now insensible. We can't get the Ballot from Lord PALMERSTON and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, any more than from Lord DERBY and Mr. Drs- RAELI ; but the former would, when leaders of her MAJESTY'S Opposition, receive new inspiration, just as they did on the Corn-law question, and soon regard " the un-English practice" in a very different point of view. So it would be on all other " Administrative Reforms," and sub jects on which the hearts of the people are ear nestly set. The truly Liberal could not lose, s but might largely profit by the change. The War policy, however, is at present the main question. Everything else must yield to that, the paramount importance of which is universally conceded. Let every true hearted Englishman, then, be at his post ; let there be no desertion or vacillation. The trim mers will become marked men, in whose hands the confidence of any independent constituency can no longer be reposed. The question is in deed a momentous one for the community ; it is no less so for the reputation of those who will have to bear the brunt of the battle during this serious crisis. Lord PALMERSTON has most justly gained a high reputation for versatility. Dfli :tilt, indeed, wo'ild it be to find any part which he could not undertake. We do not remember that he ever tried the Radical exactly. Every shade of party difference, however, from tolerably advanced Whig to uncompromising Tory has, by turns, equally suited the Noble Lord. Reformer and anti-Reformer, Tory-Whig or Whig-Tory, Corn laws Repealer and anti-Repealer ; to touch on the details of the past were, however, endless ; his Lordship has been, and can be, anything. Only the other night the Noble Lord turned saint, and in holy phrase, worthy of our Metropolitan Father in God, defended Church Rates. The defence -of ecclesiastical silver and gold always seems, however, to impart especial sanctity to the language of the defenders. The advocates are ever conscious that they defend the most sacred essence of all Establishments in defending " the gold, of the temple." The temple is nothing ; but the "gold Of the temple makes them debtors." And then they are martyrs also. Such was Lord PALMERSTON in the Church-rate debate. Sur rounded by a majority of the profane, he devoutly maintained the poverty of the Church and her need of holy plunder. Last Tuesday night, on Mr. BERKELEY'S mo tion for the Ballot, he reappeared in an old and favourite character. It was not well done, how ever, for him. There was the old dress, it is true, but it looked the worse for wear ; nor was the acting, although his heart was in it, quite up to the mark. When he came to the vos plaudite, he seemed to make the demand more from custom than from hope. Some natural cheers he got (from the Tories), but lost them soon. PALMER STON was felt by his friends to have failed. He even said nothing whatever about "nonsense" this time ! We are almost inclined to think that ever since the Administrative Reformers dubbed him " Our jesting War Minister," he has felt less at home in bantering any earnest opponent than he used to be. Be the cause what it may, the noble op ponent of free-voting, though he borrowed aid from every preceding speaker, made but a poor speech himself. He asserted, for the tenth time, that the elec tors are trustees, that the law made them trus tees ; but the Hamlet in Hamlet was, as usual, left out ; he quoted no deed of trust, and exhi bited no document from any returning officer to prove that any persons had duly delegated a trust to them. We suppose, on the contrary, that had the Noble Lord taken the pains to canvass the non-electors, they would soon have satisfied him that they never entrusted the ten-pound house holders and landlords' serfs with their political rights ; that they would prefer to have them in their own hands, and very decidedly prefer to use them under the protection of the Ballot. With all respect for Lord PALMERSTON, his now decrepid arzunaent had better be speedily buried under own favourite epitaph " nonsense." With equal ill luck he attempted a little serious oratory about the importance of publicity in voting, responsible as he held his imaginary trustees to be ; yet he immediately extinguished his own fire by strongly asserting that the Ballot, as in America, would hinder no one's opinion from being known ! • Eitlier he is wrong about America, or wrong in RTtpotrsiunk th, the Ballot would hinder publicity. disentangled from all sophistry and 51rat '. l4 'Ainif th at dud . i n America those who , to conceal their votes, do so, 144 4 of relentless interrogators • - ' .. c' ~ while those to whom it makes no difference take no 1 pains about it, and the warm politicians of course proclaim their party. It would be just the same here. Indeed it is the same in the numerous institutions which use the Ballot in England. Mr. H. BERKELEY, who certainly has contrived to introduce his annual motion with a freshness of illustration which his opponents would be thank fal to imitate, found a specially appropriate en forcement from the war in the Crimea. Lord SEYMOUR was, of course, - very angry ; in his view it was a mere copy of MOSES and SONS' advertise ments. The country, however, holds with Mr. BERKELEY. It thinks our titled Administrators are the quacks, and thorough-going electoral re form is the honest and only competent doctor. The Administrative Reformers find themselves Iriven almost at the beginning to appeal to the electors. They discover, at the outset, that the Parliament, chosen by the landlords' herds of voters, and by the pocket boroughs, is not the Parliament to contain much administrative talent, or even to compel an honest employment of the talent which it has, unless that talent be connect ed with the aristocracy. The House itself seems to take pleasure in showing that it has as little sympathy with the country as Lord PALMERSTON himself has. What mean else the counts-out on important notices, the refusal to save our army and beat the Russians if it . would require Indian officers and supersede the Horse Guards medio crity ; and last, not least, the "baiting" of Mr. LAYARD for involuntary errors (if, indeed, they should finally prove to be errors), and the attempt to cheer Sir J. GRAHAM'S assertion of his long-proved truthfulness and honour ? Somehow the country does not think so highly of the word of a Post office burglar, convicted of acting the spy for Austria, and of the blood of the noble brothers BANDEIRA. These things will recur to memory whet the House, chosen by every species of cor ruption, assails, like bullies, the honest advocates of " the one thing needful," and permits a politi cian like Sir J. GRAHAM to appeal to his long tried integrity ! Give the People the Ballot, and verily they will soon put the LA YARDS and the GRAHAMS in their right places. Among the numerous pamphlets called forth by the War, we have hardly read one more oppor tune and instructive than that to which we alluded on Monday.* The writer, and to some readers this may be a commendation of his work, is not guilty of enthusiasm for liberty, or for jus tice to Poland. He looks on the subject with the calculating eye of the statesman only, and altogether from the stand-point of German in terests. It is, to be sure, as a German, and not a Russo-German, that he writes ; he would like to see Austria and Prussia two really great and independent States. He thinks the process of absorption which reduced the German petty States, originally three hundred in number, to one hundred and sixty in 1805, and to thirty-nine at the present time, a beneficial one ; and he ex pects and hopes that the amalgamation will go on till sooner or later all the petty principalities will form parts of more powerful kingdoms. He does not think it possible in the nature of things that the present small autonomous communities should resist the manifest tendency to consolidation. With some of his views, as hostile to political justice, and likely therefore to leave cause for future disturbance, we cannot coincide._ For in stance, in the assertion that any Congress which restored their rights to the Poles would also give them a king and prescribe them their forms of Government ; also, that it would secure to Prus sia the seacoast of Poland on the Baltic. We admit the weight of the latter concession as a bribe to Prussia to obtain her cession of the rest of her share in the Polish robbery ; and the former one might tend to allay the conscience stricken dread of revolution which pervades all the despot Courts of Germany, and from which not even the French EMPEROR and our own aris tocracy are probably quite free. The miserable work in which king-making has resulted in Greece, and the uneasiness caused by all the unnatural divisions of the Holy Alliance up to the present time, might teach the Western Allies a better lesson. Our author, however, is speaking per haps only of what would be, not of what ought to be. Statesmen, of course, have no concern with the latter. In the main, however, the writer takes sound as well as practical views. He fully recognises the absolute necessity of a reconstituted and efficient Poland to the independence of Germany. He shows that, sooner or later, the fate of Poland is reserved for Germany also, unless she resuscitate her prostrate neighbour. Poland, when a nation, was harmless to German independence—Poland, absorbed into Russia, not only places Germany in immediate contact with the most insatiable of aggressors, but adds immensely to his means of aggression. No part of the pamphlet can be more impressive to Germans than that in which he shows that " the dismembetment of Poland took place for the benefit of Russia alone—that Ger many, by her participation in this dismember ment, has simply become an involuntary tool of Russian ambition—that the augmentation of ter teritory acquired by Germany through means of this dismemberment could never compensate for the inconvenience arising out of it—that Germany, by her complicity in this act of violence, has linked her policy to that of Russia, and has opened the way for her to universal empire —that the Polish possessions will not re main long in the hands of Germany—that Russia, who has gradually been despoiling Germany of part of them, will ultimately seize the whole— that this is now only a question of time and oppor tunity-.-that the future prospects of Germany, therefore, admit of no other alternative than to cede its part to Russia, or to restore it to the legitimate possessors." The facts by which these conclusions are thoroughly sustained are given in detail with un deniable accuracy. To the infamy of the other powers of Europe, especially at the Congress of - Vienna, it is proved that, with open eyes and re luctant wills, they allowed themselves to be bullied by ALEXANDER and Russia into the cession of a quarter of Poland, consisting of its German provinces, to the power which had already appro priated half ; till, for the sake of an addition of two millions of Poles, ill united to her, Germany sacrificed some sixteen millions to Russia, and erected a tremendous means of attack on German liberties on the very territory which had been their military safeguard. The plainly out-. spoken opinions of the first French and Ger man statesmen are quoted with great power, and show how easily the more powerful minds could foresee our present to the letter, and how they warned their weak and compromising contempo raries by the dangers and sufferings which are now pressing upon us. It is demonstrated that even FREDERICK Mil GREAT only took a share because he s well known.

The broad fact that she has got nearly the whole of the spoil is but the seal of the historical view of the case. We have seen in respectable journals lately, and even in some friendly to the Polish cause, an adoption of the Russo-German cuckoo-cry of Polish anarchy. Every honest lover of national inde pendence will be gratified with the convincing evidence afforded in this pamphlet, that it is the calumny of the villain who made it a pretext for his villany. The tables are completely turned. Russia is convicted of creating all the anarchy she could for ber vile purposes ; but not only that, when the Pules had actually abolished the chief causes of their anarchy, viz., the elective monarchy and the liberum veto, or, as we might say, the power of a single Peer to prohibit any measure from becom ing law; when Poland had also regulated the abuse, of peasant labour, and was quietly improving her self, Russia declared this emendation of her in stitutions a cams belli 1 ! Russia by force pre vented the abolition of the causes of anarchy ; she viewed Polish reforms as she has lately done Turkish reforms. It is her practice to lacerate neighbour countries by fomenting internal com motions before she pours armed hordes upon them. Such a principle as the liberum veto enabled her always to purchase a treacherous noble or two ; and elective monarchy was her instrument for compelling the choice of monarchs who should be her tool's. The rage of MENSCHISOFF and his master, in like manner, with Turkey was en tirely caused not by any injuries sustained by the Greek Church, but by the obvious and daily in creasing superiority of the Turkish Government to their own in matters of religious and civil liberty too. There is but one word which ade quately describes the conduct of Czars and Czarinas to wards Poland—that word is infernal. But one which describes the conduct of Austria and Prus sia—that word is cowardice. And but one thing which would heal all the disorder consequent on satanic and cowardly machinations—it is expressed by the one word justice. Germany and all Europe have new the opportunity which, if passed by, may be long ere it recur. We earnestly invite attention to the admirable Address of the Administrative Reform Association, which will be found in another part of this day's impression. It is, indeed, an important and in teresting document ; one that indicates the course about to be adopted by a body which, although it has so recently started into existence, has already attained gigantic proportions, and pro mises fairly to be enabled ere long to cleanse the Augean stables of the public offices, and to intro duce a system by which we may have " the right men in the right places." The parties who have thus prominently come forward have, as they truly declare, " no personal ambition to serve." Their private interests are not involved. Nothing but an imperative sense of public duty would induce them to make the sacrifices of time and money which must be sub mitted to ere a successful result can be anticipated from their exertions. They waited until the latest possible moment to see whether there was any hope of the necessary improvements from Minis terial sources, and also whether the representatives of independent constituencies would undertake the arduous and responsible task that more pro perly devolved upon them. And it was not until every reasonable hope of Administrative Reform was exhausted, until they saw new abuses perpe trated by or under the sanction of Government, and connived at by the Right Honourable and Honourable members of both Houses, that they at length unwillingly assumed the initiative ; and they will now persevere until they have achieved complete and unalloyed success. " The Administrative Reform Association is no mere War Association !" It has been partly oc casioned by the War, because the exigencies of the situation have more clearly developed the gross and palpable inefficiency of the several departments. " The want of forethought, the incapacity, the mismanagement, the complication of duties, the adherence to routine at the cost of human life, the thousands of brave men wasted by overwork, by exposure, by insufficiency of clothes and shelter, by unwholesome food, by hunger, by lack of me dicine and medical attendance, by starvation in the very hospitals," although they have placed matters in a clearer and stronger point of view, have still only been the result of evils, long known, although never sufficiently provided against. There is, however, a limit to human endurance. The Rubicon was passed—the ex isting grievances exposed. Hence the determined and vigorous movement to abate the nuisances, to remedy the untoward state of affairs, and that not merely in the departments concerned in the mismanagement of the War, but in all where revision and reform may be required. That there are many able men engaged in the public service is certain, but their energies are fettered ; they feel " cribbed, cabined, and con fined," by the deplorable system in operation. They speedily find that any attempt at ameliora tion brings not merely trouble, but censure—that the imputation of being a reformer is the very worst th'at can be attached to their names ; that it operates as an insuperable obstacle to promo tion. They therefore speedily subside into the jog-trot course, and sink to the level of their inefficient collaborateurs. The evils could not have so long prevailed but for the mystery maintained in all the offices. The first step will, therefore, clearly be to obtain full and accurate iaformation, and that important duty has been undertaken by the Association. We may, therefore, look for the publication of a series of " Administrative Reform Tracts," that will bring to light the existing abuses, and, at the same time, indicate the remedies. In this matter every possible assistance should be afforded. Every honest reformer should set his shoulder to the wheel. Every man entrusted with the elec tive franchise should exercise it as if the result depended on Ms individual vote. He must re collect that if the candidate has to pay dearly for his election, lie will naturally look to recom pense himself ; that if he be compelled to solicit the patronage of Ministers for any of his consti tuents he will be likely to do so on his own account, and that he cannot attack the system when he has dabbled in the accursed thing. Let honest votes be given--let the purity of election be respected by the electors themselves—s,nd let adequate funds be supplied to those who have assumed the onus of the conflict, and we may rest certain of speedy and ample success—of tho un mitigated triumph of " the good cause." • It is stated that M. Roger, who is at present on a professional tour in Germany, has been engaged for one year by an American impresario, at the rate of 8,0001. (200,000 f.) _ BURIAL-GROUNDS IN THE METROPOLIS.—As the Bishop of London is to make a motion on the subject this even ing in the House of Lords, it may be worth %.hile to refer to a return just obtained by Mr. Brotherton, M.P., which . shows that there still remain open, or partially open, for interment within the limits of the Metropoli tan Burials Act, 60 consecrated burial-grounds, 15 un consecrated, and 11 partly consecrated, of which 9 are cemeteries. Some of these grounds are already wholly or partly closed, saving existing rights in private graves and vaults.

The Queen and Prince and Royal Family arrived at Osborne yesterday evening at a quarter past six o'clock, from London. The Duchess of Kent is expected to-day on a visit to her Maj. sty. The Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Anna Maria Dawson and Sir George Couper, left her residence, Clarence House, St. James'F, yesterday, for Osborne, Isle of Wight. Despatches for the Governors of the colonies on the west coast of Africa were sent last evening from the Colonial Office. The Duke de Saxe Coburg and Gotha has left Brussels, after one day's stay, for Gotha. The present duke, Ernest 11., who has just finished an excursion to Paris, London, and Brussels, is the nephew of King Leopold and brother of Prince Albert, the consort of our Queen. We are sorry to announce the death of Lieutenant- General Sir George C. D'Aguilar, K.C.8., and Colonel of the 23d Royal Welch Fusiliers. His Excellency, the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland has appointed Mrs. Spence, widow of a gallant sergeant of the 41st Regiment, who was killed at Inkerman, a class matron in Grargegorman. Sir R. I. Murchison has received the appointment of Director of the Geological Survey—the post left vacant by the death of Sir Henry de la Beche, and the salary of which is returned in the estimates as 8001.

ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANIES.—Meetings of the Electric Telegraph and the International Telegraph Companies were held on Tuesday, when resolutions were passed approving of the amalgamation of the two companies, a bill to authorise which is now before Par liament. The bill also limits the dividends to be paid on the shares of the International Company to 10 per cent., and authorises the borrowing of a sum not ex ceeding 50,0001. THE MILITIA AT ALDERSHOT.—The regiments of militia already at the camp at Aldershot are the Ist East Middlesex, Colonel Thomas Wood ; the Ist Surrey, Colonel W. Holme Summer ; and the Royal Berkshire. The Leicestershire march to the camp this day, and in the course of the ensuing week, the King's Own Tower Hamlets Militia proceed from Hackney to the camp, and the Royal London from Finsbury. THE RESERVE BATTALIONS AT MALTA.—It is in tended by the Government to reinforce the provisiona or reserve battalions at Malta, which consist of compa nies belonging to regiments serving in the Crimea, as frequently as possible from the various depot companies at home. The Commander-in-Chief at the seat of war will be thus enabled to augment the army under his command in little better than a week, should occasion require, by communicating, by telegraph, to the War Department, from whence an order will at once be for warded by telegraph to Marseilles, and thence by steamer to Malta. HOP INTELLIGENCE.—The hop-polling is now finished throughout the county, and tying has partially com menced. In most parishes the prospects are favourable —the stock well set, and the hills throwing out plenty of bine--in some few others the bine looks yellow and sickly. A few days warm weather, and tying will he general ; the late showers having been of great benefit to the plant. Flea is spoken of in some districts, but rot to that extent as to create any alarm at present.— Kentish Gazette. ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—The following gen tlemen, having undergone the necessary examinations for the diploma, were admitted members of the college at the meeting of the court of examiners on May 21 : Messrs. - Thomas Young Savage, Toronto, Canada ; Alfred Henry Wagstaff, Ivinghoe, Bucks; William Riddell Brunton, Army ; Joshua Plaskitt, Louth, Lin colnshire; John Fortnorn Straker, H.E.1.C.5., Bombay; Robert Clean, Pouncy, Glastonbury ; Robert Edmund Jackson, Whitby, Yorkshire; Hugh Granger Earnshaw, Fort Faulkner, Aughrie, county of Wicklow; and George Cowper Rose, West-square, Lambeth. THE CITY STATUE OF SIR ROBERT PEEL.—Yesterday the workmen commenced breaking the ground in the centre of the open space adjoining the north-west corner of the Bank of England, at the junction of Lothbury and Princess-street, preparatory to placing there the obelisk, which now stands at the west•end of Cheapside, on the site on which the City statue of Sir Robert Peel, by Bebnes, is to be placed. ' The contractor for the work of placing the statue in its place and removing the obelisk to its new site, is Mr. Chadwick, of Grosvenor wharf, Westminster. AFFAIRS OF MR. EDWARD OLIVER. LIVERPOOL, May 23.—1 t is said that efforts are being renewed to throw the affairs of Mr. Oliver into the Court of Bank ruptcy. It will also be recollected that a short time subsequent to the declared insolvency of Mr. Oliver, whose extensive failure created such a sensation, several attempts were made to obtain a fiat of bankruptcy against him, all of which were defeated. This day (Wednesday) some proceedings of a private nature were heard before Mr. Commissioner Stevenson, in the Liver pool Bankruptcy Court, with a view, it is understood, to some such object, but the exact nature of the application did not tra ispire. THE PASSENGERS BY THE JAMES BAINES.—LiVePpOOI, May 23.—A further investigation into the complaints made by the passengers which arrived in this ship from Melbourne, was carried on yesterday, and to-day another meeting of the passengers was held, at which it was re solved to institute proceedings against the owners, Messrs. James Baines and Co., for two infractions of the Emigration Act—viz., for selling spirits on beard the ship, and for having supplied the passengers with un wholesome food. Messrs. James Baines and Co., it is said, maintain that the whole matter is susceptible of easy explanation. Rumours are also rife that gross im morality prevailed on board the ship. THE ERUPTION OF MOUNT VESUVIUS.—NAPLES, May 14.—Vesuvius, instead of ceasing its destructive erup tion, has been committing daily greater ravages. Within the last few days a portion of the lava has diverged from the main stream, which, flowing down on Cerolo and running to the right, has nearly reached St. Jovio. Much fine cultivated land has been covered over, and promised abundance destroyed. The loss to some indi viduals is very considerable, while the total amount must be immense. Should the eruption continue, the course of the lava will lead it over the railway into the sea.. The summit of the mountain is so riddled, and the surface is presumed to be so thin, that it is feared it may fall at any time; and no person is allowed to ad vance beyond the Observatory. Indeed it would be madness to attempt it. The spectacle which the moun tain presents at night is remarkably grand. Its sides are covered with the fiery fluid, which one may imagine to be blond, oozing out from the wounded giant. THE IRON TRADE IN SOUTH WALES.— At the present moment the iron trade throughout the whole of South Wales is in a very depressed state, and many of the works are now making iron at a loss. As a consequence, trade is slack, the ironmongers holding off from orders until the market has become more favourably established. The 10 per cent, reduction, which 'has now been fully carried into effect throughout the hills, has to a great extent lightened the burden for the masters. However, in consequence of some large orders which were taken some time ago, the majority of the works are occupied, though some furnaces are now out of blast. Some idea of the enormous trade which England has being doing with foreign countries may be gathered from the fact that in the six months ending the close of January last, upwards of 96,000 tons of Welsh made rails were shipped foreign from the three ports of Bristol, Newport, and Cardiff, being upwards of 27,000, 31,000, and 37,000 tons respectively.—Hereford Journal. DEATH OF LORD SPENCER COMPTON.—We regret to announce the sudden death of Captain Lord Spencer S. Compton (15th Hussars), who died on Monday morning at Exeter, in which city his lordship was stationed with his regiment. Lord Spencer Compton was taken unwell about a fortnight ago with inflammation of the lungs, and was considered to be progressing favourably, so much so that his lordship was to leave this week for Castle Ashby, in Northamptonshire, for change of air. On Monday morning, at an early hour, Lady Mari anne Alford, who since her brother's illness has been in attendance on him, administered a draught to him, and his lordship said he was getter, and was cheerful. At eight o'clock in the morning a heavy fall in the bed room of his lordship aroused his attendants, and on entering his chamber the gallant nobleman was found prostrate on the floor. He was quite unconscious, and expired in a few minutes. The deceased was third son of the late Marquis of Northampton, and brother of the present peer. He was born 6th March, 1821. His lordship entered the 85th Regiment as lieutenant in 1843, and subsequently removed to the 15th Hussars, his commission as captain in that gallant corps being dated in December, 1846. The noble deceased only re turned with his regiment from the East Indies in June last. The mortal remains of his lordship were to be re moved yesterday from Exeter to the ancient family seat of the Northampton family at Castle Ashby, for inter sosnt. A large number of distiuguished lamilies have been placed in mourning by the demise of his lordship. AT NEWS BERLIN, WEDNESDAY. The Kreuz Zeitung says that the Austrian me diatory proposal is—that Russia and Turkey settle between themselves the number of war ships in pontes by separate treaty, stipulating that Eng land and France be permitted to have there two war ships each ; Turkey to undertake to bring this separate treaty to the knowledge of the Allies. TRIESTE, MAY 23. Accounts from Constantinople state that the Piedmontese troops continued to arrive in the Bos phorus, and to sail immediately for the Crimea. The reception _given by the Sultan to Count Castelcicala was most gracious. Counts Cavour, Tecco, and Dabormida had been decorated with the Order of Medjidie. The Sultan had received Mehemet Ali since his return from exile. ELSINORE, MAY 23. The vessels named below have just arrived at Elsinore from the Baltic ; they are all prizes which have been captured at Riga :—The Bad lance, the Otto, the Emilie, the Anion, the Bene dicty, the Anna, the Christiana, and the Dania. FRANCE. The Moniteur of yesterday contains an article on the sanitary state of the French army in the Crimea. In substance is summed up in the following con cluding sentence :—The army enjoys as good health as could possibly have been hoped for. The num ber of men taken into the ambulances, which in the month of March was 7,585, was in April reduced to 5,600, while the number of those who left cured in the same month was 1,399, having been. 1,064 in March. This has been the result, although, in consequence of the siege operations, the wounded were more numerous in April than in March. The army of the Crimea is, then, in good condition to fulfil its mission. Under date of Vienna, May 16, the Moniteur publishes the following : " The Austrian squadron, under the command of the Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian, will leave Trieste in a few days. Salamis appears to be the meeting-place appointed for the vessels of the 'squadron." The Duke de Cambaceres, Grand Master of the Ceremonies, and the Marquis de Chaumont-Quitry, Chamberlain of the Emperor, left yesterday for Bordeaux to await the arrival of the King of Por tugal, and his Brother, the Duke of Oporto. Baron de Paiva, the Portuguese Minister, and the staff of his Legation, have also proceeded to Bordeaux on the occasion. The Moniteur, the Debats, the Pays, and indeed almost every one of the Paris journals, morning and evening, with the exception of the Constittc tionnel, have fallen into a most amusing mistake, having published as a bonotfide despatch, a mysti fication which appeared in the Herald, and which is represented by that journal as having been written by Lord Raglan, in explanation of the late expedition to liertch. Some idea of the extent of the mystification may be formed from the part that General Sir George Brown is called "a promising young officer," and that the 42d, 71st, and 93d Highland regiments are declared to have been de spatched on the service, in the hope that "their costume would excite novel emotions among the Russian soldiers, and tend to consolidate our (the English) alliance with any Circassians who might see them from the coast." Several companies of the waggon-train, consist ing of 250 men and 320 horses, arrived in Paris on Tuesday and the day before from the camp at Boulogne, .and immediately proceeded by the Lyons railway to Marseilles to embark for the Crimea. The following vessels have left Marseilles with troops and stores for • Constantinople within the last few days :—On the 19th the Clyde, of the Mes sageries Imperiales ; on the 20th the English steam-transport the Caledonia ; and on the 21st the English steam-transports the Arabia, the Nor manby, and the New York ; and likewise the Sinai steam-packet. Gen. Bentinck took his pas sage in this last-named steamer. A certain num ber of horses were embarked on each of these vessels. "The French caravan of pilgrims," says the Univeis, " has happily terminated its excursion to the Holy Land. The last letters which we received had announced their departure from Jerusalem for April 16. The following private telegraphic despatch has been received : " MADRID, 221—The law relative to the sale of the Church-lands is to come into effect on June 1." BOURSE, MAY 23.—CLOSING PRICES.

A letter 'from Vienna, in the Cologne Gazette, says :—" The reason for which the circular-de spatch of the Austrian Cabinet to the German Courts was sent off only three days ago, is that the acts relative to the conferences and to the va lidity of the treaty of December are considered as not yet being terminated. This despatch contains a copy of the protocols of the conference, and the Imperial Cabinet says in it that it flatters itself that ' its high confederates will derive from them the complete conviction that the policy followed hitherto by Austria, and which it is to follow for the future, was based on proper regard for the dig nity, position, and interests of all the Germanic Confederation.' The Cabinet expresses the hope that its confederates will consequently 'openly, cor dially, and more unreservedly support Austria, in order to enable her to take up a position significant abroad and beneficial at home. Such a position,' says the Imperial Government, can alone prove to the German nation and foreign countries that Austria and Germany support the general princi ples of European public law, and that their union can only place a decisive balance in the scales of war.' " The statement of Count de Nesoelrode having resigned is not confirmed. Count Tolstoi, who was secretary for diplomatic affairs to the present Em peror when he was heir presumptive, has, it ap pears, been nominated Secretary of Stte in the Department of Foreign Aflairs, but this does not in any respect change the position of the Chancel lor of the Empire. BULG A_RIA. The Pays says :—" There were recently some rumours of a movement of Turkish troops against the Dobrudscha, but they appear to have been without foundation. The Muschir Ismail Pacha was lately at Schumla with a corps of from 20,000 to 25,000 men, but no preparations had been com menced to cause it to be supposed that this corps was about to march. The rumour wa s probably occasioned by the m arc h o f a sm all Turkish corps of 2,500 men from Giurgeve to Rustchuok. The removal of this force reduced the garrison at Giur gevo to a single battalion. The Turkish comman der in Wallachia, Hassan Pacha, is to be replaced by Solilan Pacha, who is at Schumla.' DENMARK. The ex-Ministers of Denmark who have been impeached, and who are to appear before the High Court of Justice of the Kingdom on 4th Juno, are six in number :—M. de Tillisch, Minister of the Interior ; Gen. de Hansen, War ; M. Bluhme, Foreign Affairs ; Admiral Steen-Bill, Marine ; and M. de Scheel, Justice. They are accused, first—of having ordered, without having demanded the au thorisation of the Diet, though it was sitting, vari ous measures causing expenses not accorded by the, laws of finance; and secondly, of having illegally so licited and blamed the royal sanction for the same measures, and having ordered the payment of other sums, without legal authorisation. M. de Hansen is besides specially accused of having disposed of sums not allowed in the budgets of 1853 and 1854. The High Court of Justice has already been con stituted, in accordance with Art. 72 of the Consti tution. It Consists of sixteen judges, namely, eight members of Folksthing, and eight members of the , o die 3 I , [V Supremo Tribunal, all elected by th i which they respectively- belong. .. SPAIN. arrio d.
