When undertakings are prosperous the managers dine and talk about them. They congrdtulate one another on these prandial occasions, and form resolutions to render the benefits which they have.obtained substantial and permanent. No wonder, then, that the Brighton Race Committee celebrated the success which has at tended their exertions in this old English fashion. Some weeks ago they gave a dinner, at which were present the chief patrons and well-wishers of the meeting. Com pliments, well deserved and modestly acknowledged, were paid to Mr. Slight, jun., for his active exertions in restoring the meeting to popularity. Mr. Stocken, the secretary, also came in for his share of praise, whilst the ability and tact of Mr. Dorling were not passed over in silence. The speech-makers on that occasion, however, did not omit honourable men tion of one of the principal causes which contributed to the success of the race meeting and the pecuniary ad vantage of the town, viz.—the travelling facilities which are afforded by the Brighton and South Coast Railway Company, The statements which were then made were founded on truth, and the gathering, which will com mence to-morrow, will show that they were not mere noisy boastings caused by temporary success. If the programme contains no 'very prominent feature of in terest, yet it presents a promise of attractive sport, which is likely to be fully realised. Speculation on the Brighton Stakes has been mate- rially stopped by the formidable "French Flyer," Baron- ' cino, who has engrossed nearly all the betting. Still, despite the easy style in which he achieved his success at Goodwood, I am inclined to believe that, at the weights, he will find Quince a most troublesome oppo nent. He meets him at a difference of only Gibs. for the year, and this fact, coupled with the circumstance of the great improvement manifested in Quince at Goodwood, is sufficient to warrant the opinion which I have expressed. Still I do not think slightingly of Baroncino's chance. If the reported trials between Mishap and Surgeon-General be true Mishap can have no chance. The winner will doubtless be either BARON. CINO or QUINCE, and the judges' decision may reverse the order in which I have set down their names. Were they out of the race I should desire no better champions than Winkfield and Fulbeck. The Biennial Stakes may bring out Escape, Pugnator, and Instructress. Although Escape beat Pugnator at Epsom I do not expect him to repeat the achievement at Brighton. I shall not express an opinion on either the Marine Plate or the Pavilion Plate, because it is impossible to ascertain the probable starters. George Brown is in brisk demand for the Nursery Stakes. I, however, prefer the chances of Elfrida and Rip Van Wir.kle. Should he start old Rataplan will, of course, win the Cup. The Champagne Stakes will, per hap, be carried off by Andover. If his owner, how- ever, do not deem it advisable to bring him out for it, either Pumicestone or Epaminondas may win. August 7. A PRESET MAN. LEGITIMIST CONSPIRACY IN FRANCE AND SPAIN. The French papers announce the discovery of a conspiracy, with very extended ramifications, under the auspices, as it is affirmed, of the Counts de Chambord and de Montemolin, with the two fold object of promoting their own peculiar inte rests and at the same time creating a diversion in favour of Russia by embarrassing the Western Powers. It is needless to add that Russian gold is the mainspring of the whole affair. The following document, which is published by the Constitutionnel, it appears, was intercepted in the possession of General Elio, who drew it up for the Count de Montemolin. It is dated London, Nov. 24, 1854, and states :—" I have had the honour to see his Highness, whom I found better than I could have expected. I have seen General Cabrera also. But before speaking to you of these gentlemen I must give you an account of the mis sion of M. d'Escars. Yesterday he visited me, ac companied by M. Chapot, and described the inter view which he had with Prince Gortschakoff at Vienna. I made him repeat the whole narrative, so that I might learn it by heart, and I now send to you in the form of a dialogue, in order that you may the better understand it : D'Escars—Prince, I come on the part of the Count de Montemolin to deliver to you this letter for the Emperor. It is a confirmation of the negotiations with you which were commenced by the Count de Chambord. Gortschakoff—l beg pardon, Count, for interrupting you ; but in the few words you have said I already no tice two mistakes. The Count de Chambord has never said a word to me on the subject. The Duke de L—s called on me and spoke of the affairs of Spain as a mat ter which interested him personally. But what he said was merely in the way of conversation, and bad in no respect the character of a negotiation, for I had no powers for such a purpose. D'Escar. (somewhat surprised, because he had been told that it was the Count de Chambord, and had said what he did under that impression) : As you will, Prince. But to give more authority to that conversation, and to confirm the details given by Cabrera, the Count de Mon temolin wrote to the Emperor. Gortachakoff—l don't know whether I ought to re ceive this letter. Do you know what it contains ? D'Escars—Certainly not ; but I suppose it is, as I have said, the confirmation of General Cabrera's note, in order to relieve the Emperor's mind from any doubt, and to call his attention to the state of Spain, and show the ad vantage which Russia would find in a diversion. Gortschakoff—l have made up my mind to receive the letter, but merely as an act of politeness—nothing more. Understand this perfectly, I beg, M. le Comte, and be good enough to repeat what I say exactly. No doubt a diversion in Spain would be very useful. But the de tails I have received are extremely vague, and the Em peror cannot compromise himself in an affair which may be nothing but smoke. Parties are apt to deceive them selves, and readily mistake their wishes for facts. D'Escars—lt is possible. But the situation of Spain is too well known for it to be apprehended that the affair in;which the support of the Emperor is desired can be only smoke, and a few millions might insure the success of the enterprise. I presume that the Emperor bad the first note, and you possibly may have received some answer to it. Gortschakoff—You are aware that Russia is engaged in a struggle with all Europe, and that, consequently, she has need of all her resources. Not a word on the subject of the application made to the Emperor. D'E:cars —That is true, Prince : but for the very rea son that you are spending hundreds of millions, the five, six, or seven millions that we require can be of no mo ment to you. I apprehend that the Emperor must have seen the note in question, and perhaps we may be per mitted to know his intentions on the subject. Gortschakoff—lt is evident that such a matter as that must have come to his knowledge. But I have received no instructions, and, as I have already said, I must beg you to repeat our conversation correctly, and to repeat that I receive your letter only by way of courtesy, and listen to your details and this entire conversation only as information. D'Escars thought it useless to press the matter fur ther, and went to London to tell Cabrera, who was ex pecting him with impatience, because the first accounts which D'Escars must have communicated to you had led him to conceive flattering hop©s which this conversation did not confirm. Finding me here, D'Escars requested me to make you acquainted with what precedes, because he was too pressed for time, and he went away immedi ately. After this explanation, we spoke in a general way about money. It appears that there are no means of getting any. I put forward your idea of a subscription— yourself, the Infant, Chambord, Modena, Cabrera, &0., each subscribing according to his means to create the basis of a fund. For myself I think, as far as I can see at present, this would be the shortest way. But there is this additional circumstance—the gentlemen here,and especially Chapot, who appears to be an intelligent man, think that with the foundation of a fond it would be possible to negotiate at Paris. We therefore strongly recommended them to press these considerations on the Count de Chambord, although they said he could do but little, his income being otherwise engaged. As lat present see no other course open, until Providence sends us another, we must work this, and, subject to your Majesty's approbation, my opinion is, that it would be well to write to Cham bord, Modena, and Berry to come to an understanding with the principal personages of their town (sic) to see if they can aid your Majesty. They may do this without compromising themselves, because the object is to find a confidential banker with whom the funds may be placed, and no other names will appear than those of your Ma jesty, the Infant, and the Count of Morella. With these respectable names, and all the collective subscrip tions, it is to be hoped that we may negotiate so as to obtain something more. The French have stipulated that their names are not to be mentioned. . . . Having discussed with these gentlemen the three prin. cipal questions confided to me, we have resolved them in the following manner :- 1. For the moment they do not consider it necessary that your Majesty should quit Naples ; but you should be ready to leave, either publicly or secretly, whenever it may be necessary. 2. On the subject of money they have done nothing, and all that can be said about it I have largely developed above. 3. As to what may be done in Spain or elsewhere—in Spain, until we have re sources, there must be a thorough reorganisation be fi ire commencing. I have asked Cabrera to point out some persons possessed of the necessary qualifications to be put at the head of the provinces. He has promised me to think about it, and to mention to me any fit name that may occur to him. A letter, signed by Count de Montemolin him self, has also been seized, in which he says " Cabrera will tell you, when you see him, what it is thought we may get from Russia." Conjecture is altogether at fault to assign the reasons which have induced the FrenCh Govern ment to publish this correspondence at this parti cular moment. Mdlle.

We find the following comparative table of the wheat crop of 1849, as shown in the United States' census of 1850, and the estimated crop of 1355, in the Cincinnati Price Current : 1849. 1835. Bushol.4. Bushels. Ohio 14,457,000 10-, 000, OGO Pennsylvania 15,3fi7,000 18,00 ),000 Virginia .

But this year's crop, according to all ac counts, will yield probably one-fourth more bushels of wheat on the same number of acres than the soil pro duced six years ago. If we acknowledge these facts— and we see no grounds for contradiction—the above ag gregate of 114,500,000 bushels, or an increase over the yield of 1849 of but 22,000,000 bushels in the 14 States named, does not even approximate to the proba ble actual result. For instance, the estimated yield of Ohio is put down at 16,000,000, while an average crop in that State would be 22,000,000 of bushels ; and in Illinois, whence we have a report that the crop would be 25,000,000—which, however, we regard as altogether too high a figure—the table above allows only 13,000,000. In New York the increase over 1849 is put down at 1,879,000, while, in fact, it will not fall much short of Being 3,000,000 bushels greater than the comparative meagre yield of that year. We have prepared the following table after a great deal of calculation, which, we think, will be acknowledged, and will no doubt be found to be, a great deal nearer the actual aggregate of the wheat crop this year in the States named than that of our contemporary in Cincinnati :- 1849 1855 • Bushels Wheat. Ohio Pennsylvania 15,367,000' 21,000,000 Virginia ll, 21'3,000 15,000,000 New York 13,121,001) 16,000,000 Alabama 291,000 700,000 Illinois Indiana lowa Kentucky Marfand Michigan Missouri 2,981.000 5,500,000 Tennessee Wisconsin Total 92,086,0a0 153,700,0 )0 This shows an aggregate of nearly 157,000,000 bushels of wheat as the estimated product of the crop in 1855 in 14 States, which is an increase over the produc tion of 1849 of 62,500,000. If we continue our figures for the balance of the States and territories we shall be able to form some estimate of the entire crop of the country. We put them down as follows : 1849 1855 Bushels Wheat.

The value of the wheat crop in that year is put down in the census report at 100,000,000 dols. If we value the present crop at 11 dols. a bushel—which will probably be its average price—it wilt be worth an aggre gate of more than 210,500,000 dols. MARKET J.VEWS.--(THIS DAY.) HAY MARKETS.

MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLoCK. The cotton market at Liverpool yesterday closed with a heavy feeling, but without change in prices. The sales amounted to 6,000 bales, (700 of which were taken on speculation), com prising 120 Pernam and Maranham at 61d. to 7d. ; 500 Egyptian at 60. to 91d. ; 1,000 Surat at 4d. to 5d., and 30 Sea Islands at Is. 11d. per lb. The Railway Share Market was dull, without any re markable feature. The stocks of sugar at the principal ports of Great Britain on the Ist August were as follows : T 3,0 ot B a o l. 8 tons. 143,538 „ 113,800 „ 149,990 „ Year 1855 . „ 1854 . „ 1853 . „ 1852 . 1851 . 149,118 Accounts from Hamburg state that the potato disease there had never manifested itself so strongly as at present. There had been frequent thunder storms, accompanied by hail at times. The improvement of the Postal communication with Australia is what every one anxiously desires, and the problem still is, how best to effect the de sired object. Our own impression is that to insure regulation no company or association that has not already steamers at its command, and such a prac tical staff as is accustomed to these matters, should be allowed to take it in hand, otherwise there will be every likelihood of as decided a break up as with the Royal Australian Mail Company. The following is an extract of a letter, dated Sydney, April 25, just received from the agent of the Australian General Investment Association : "I have seen the Governor about the postal comm• nication, and shall see him again. I have little doubt of obtaining all I ask—i. e. , 24,0001. subsidy, and the portages. You must do all you can to prepare some company or parties to take up the matter. You can, I think, find little difficulty when so good a certain annual revenue is secured ; and T hope by the following mail to receive sufficient powers from the Australian General Investment Association to make a distinct proposal on their behalf, which I should make subject to ratification, but you must inculcate on the directors that promptitude of action is everything in colonial enterprises." The applicants for allotments in the French Loan are very desirous that they should be received as early as possible, their capital being locked up, and there is no doubt that the French Government will hasten the distribution, because of the tight ness that exists temporarily at Paris. A large number of persons there have drawn their bankers' balances to a lower point than usual, in order, by asking for more than they require, to make certain of - some portion, and until they get the balance of the sum they ask, find themselves rather inconvenienced. The considerable sums in gold received here from Australia and America this week will serve to augment the available stock of which parties requiring to export the precious metal can avail themselves, but we apprehend that just at present bullion is more likely to return from the continent. The original Committee of Anglo-Peruvian Bondholders, undeterred by opposition and diffi culties, continue strenuously to oppose the perse vering attempts made lay parties holding the home debt to get it quoted in the London Stock Ex change, and give very cogent reasons against a compromise. This day the home bondholders are holding a meeting which is still in progress, and although it cannot be denied that many of those who have the Anglo-Peruvian debt have also be come possessed of the home stock at very low rates, there is no valid reason on this score to assert that the English creditors at large are interested in the matter. The original Committee, in a do cument they have addressed to their constituents, state : " While one of these documents assumes credit for the punctual payment of the interest on the Anglo- Peruvian Bonds, which is not denied, as well as for the regular application of the sinking fund, of which we know but little, it ignores the incontrovertible fact of the hypothecation of five-eighths of the proceeds of guano sold in Great Britain, by the contract on the faith of which the Old Bonds were converted. The committee have forwarded protests to the Peruvian Government against the non-fulfilment of this formal pled g e, and have made great exertions to obtain the full execution of it ; had it been carried out, nearly one million of the debt would already have been liquidated; To the un ceasing action of the committee in your behalf is solely due the present increase of the sinking fund to five per cent. on the 41 per Cent. Bonds, and of thrte per cent. on the 3 per Cent. Bonds. But highly creditableaS this increase is to the good intentions and sense of justice of Gen. Castilla, in which the committee have expressed their confidence, they cannot but consider it as much belowyour just claims, and as inadequate to the object of having the debt extinguished in a reasonable time ; the deposits of Guano, which were once said to be inexhaustible, be ing now known to be limited, and in course of rapid diminution. That it was the original intention of the Peruvian Government to extinguish the debt at an early period is evident from the clause in the contract for the 41 per Cents., which reserves the right of paying off at par so much of the loan as shall not have been re duced at the expiration of ten years. Senor Rivero acknowledges the notorious irregularity which attended the transactions connected with the arbitrary and un paralleled conversion of that portion of the internal debt into sterling bonds, which were issued to Messing. Uribarren, of Paris, and to Mr. Joseph Hegan, and were attempted to be introduced into this market to your serious injury. Among the objects of the appoint. ment of this committee was, that of resisting the quota tion of the Sterling Bonds of the Home Debt in the Offi cial List of the Stock Exchange, and you are all aware that, through the efforts of the committee, this object was attained, It is therefore with no small concern and regret that the committee now filed an option given to the possessors of these securities of ex changing them for 3 per Cent. Bonds, with a sinking fund of 2i per cent. The acceptance of this option will make an amount of 1,589,0001., which is nearly equal to that of the present 3 per Cents. Whether accepted in whole or in part, the old attempt, although in another form and for a diminished amount, will probably be re vived, of obtaining a quotation in the official list ; and as this would also be most prejudicial to your interest, this committee will feel bound to resist it, and have no doubt the Stock Exchange Committee will adhere to their former wise and just decision." The Funds are well supported, but (with very little doing, and all the arrangements for the set tlement. of accounts to-morrow appear now to be completed.

The Marquis of CLANRICARDE then rose to move that the select committee, appointed by the House of Commons, having recommended *an' immediate amend ment of the Sale of Beer Act of 1854, the circumstances which render legislation on the subject-matter of the bill passed by thellouse of Commons are of such urgency as to render the immediate consideration ol the same .ne cessary. The noble marquis proceeded at length to urge the importance of the measure and the necessity of set tlinga question that had occasioned general inconvenience and discontent throuoliout the country. He then re ferred to the evidence taken before the select committee upon the subject, and to the vast number of petitions presented in favour of the repeal of the act of last session. Her Majesty's Government were in favour of passing the present bill, and he trusted he should have the sup , port of a majority of their lordships for the same purpose. It was all very well for those who opposed this measure to say there was no hardship ; they had their clubs to go to, but the poor man had nothing but water in his house—and that of a most questinnabl&nature. To be compelled to drink that after a certain hour on Sunday was, he thought, bad in the extreme. It had been ob jected that this bill was introduced without sufficient time for consideration. The measure had been urged so early as last April, but from the pressure of business in the other house it was found impossible for the pro moters of the bill to have it sent up to their lordships till a late period of the session. Of the number of persons appointed to inquire into the work ing of .the act of last session, only one out of twelve was in favour of letting the bill of 1854 stand. The noble earl then alluded to the extreme hard ship upon the thousands of poor people who availed them selves ofthe Sunday excursion trains, as also the evil arising from driving people to private drinking shops, and concluded by moving the consideration of the bill as one of urgency. Lord REDESDALE opposed the motion, as he did not think it was a motlen of extreme urgency. He thought that the rule adopted by their lordships for the conduct ing of their proceedings should not be lightly departed from. Lord LYTTLETON thought that the committee ap pointed by the House of Commons should not govern their lordships. He considered the construction of that committee partial, and he should oppose the motion for suspending the standing orders. Earl GRANVILLE thought the etanding order should be suspended. He considered the urgency of the present case extreme. The Earl of SIJAFTESBURY said he was not pre pared to say that the act would not admit of some re laxation ; but he was fully decided that upon the 6th of August they ought not to set aside an order of the house, upon the faith of which many noble lords had left Lon don, believing that no business of such a character as was then before them could come under their consider ation. Earl GRANVILLE thought it was for the commit tee to consider what the evidence was which they ought to receive, in order to enable them to come to a proper conclusion upon the subjec i t matter before them. The Earl of HA RDWICKE said he felt some diffi culty in making up his mind upon the subject. He was deE.irous of supporting the orders of the house ; but, at the same time, he thought that there were some parts of the law objectionable. He, therefore, -thought that under the circumstances it would be a proper thing to relax the law, and for that reason be would sup port the resolution of the noble marquis. He never wa. one of those who thought that they should adopt any very stringent measures in regard to public-houses ; believing that they would, by such a course, be interfering with the ordinary comforts of the people. It was, no doubt, most advantageous that pub lic-houses should be closed during Divine service, and perhaps at such a period of the night when all classes, particularly the working classes, ought for their own in'erests '.o have retired to rest. In other respects he thought that the law ought to be relaxed. He would, therefore,:support the resolution of the noble marquis. Lord ST. LEONARDS said he was of opinion that the law was too stringent, and ought to be relaxed. He would support the resolution on the ground that a case of urgency had been made nut. The Earl of HARROWBY also supported the reso lution. r Lord CONGLETON said that this was a cage of the public versus the publican. There were already five and a half hours taken from the publicans' holiday, and it was now proposed to take eight hours from him. He did not think that the inconvenience to the public was sufficiently great to justify this abrogation of the publi cans' holiday. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE having replied, Their lordships divided—when there appeared. For the resolution—Contents 25 Non contents l6 Majority in favour of the resolution —9 The hill was then read a second time. The Downing-street Public Offices Bill passed through committee. The Militia Ballots Suspension Bill was read a second time. The Metropolitan Local Management Bill was read a third time and passed. The Dissenters' Marriages Bill, as amended, was reported. Tho Excise Duties Bill was read a third time and passed. The Metropolis Local Management Bill was read a third time. After which the following bills passed through corn• mittee :—The Metropolis Buildings ; Customs Tariff Acts Amendment and Consolidation ; Customs Law Consolidation ; and Turnpike Acts Continuance (No. 2). THE TURKISH LOAN. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Lord ST. LEONARDS wished to trouble their lord ships with a few observations. No one that admitted the war to be just and necessary, no one that admitted it was not as yet in the power of her Majesty's Govern meet to make a safe and honourable peace, would be disposed to refuse to Turkey whatever pecuniary assis tance she might stand in need of. Nevertheless he wished to direct their lordships' attention for a few moments to the subject of the recent conferences at Vienna, and would endeavour to satisfy them of what he himself entertained—a very strong conviction 'that Russia had never entered with any sincerity into those' conferences, except with reference to one object, and that was the carrying out of her own purposes. Between the end of 1354 and the beginning of 1855 the four points were agreed upon ; the third point, embracing the double ob ject of the admission of Turkey into the European family, and the putting_ an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea. No doubt those terms were very judiciously selected as the basis on which, if accepted, a lasting peace might be fmnded. However, when they came to the conferences Prince Gortschakoff actually thanked Count Bunt for not having put before them any proposition tending to put an end to the pre- ponderance of Russia in the Black Sea. And upon the same occasion Prince Gortschakoff took care to insert a proviso, which did not sound very alarmingly at the time—namely, that Russia would agree to nothing which should compromise her honour. The two first points being agreed to and accepted, with the exception of a detailed provision to the effect that England and France should be allowed to retain one or two small vessels of war at the mouth of the Danube, and which Prince Gortschakoff wished to have postponed until the next point was de-termined, the third point was now arrived at. The first division of the point—namely, the admis sion of Turkey into the European family—bad been put forward by the four powers, on the supposition that Russia had agreed to guarantee the possession of the Turkish 'territory. However, Prince ,Gortschakoff declined entering into any such compact, and pro tested against it, reserving for his master the right to encroach by war upon the integrity of the Turkish em pire .The next question that came before the conferences was the means of putting an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea, which was embodied in the second division of the third point. Not seeing their way to an immediate solution of the question, the allies proposed that the initiative should be taken by R'issia. Prince Gortschakoff, however, declined to do so, desir ing at the same that Turkey should do en. Turkey, however, could not do that, as she was bound by treaty to consult with her allies. Matters were then referred to St. Petersburg, by which a delay of three weeks was gained, and what effect that delay bed upon the proceed ings before Sebastopol he would leave their lordships to contemplate. Certain it was that nothing was more calcu lated to damp the ardour of soldiers engaged in a struggle that called for the utmost display of . enthusiasm, than the knowledge that peace was being treated for, and that , the olive branch was being held out to the enemy, There was not, however. the smallest pretence for refer ring the subject to St. Petersburg, for the fact was Prince Gortschakoff bad already power to take the initiative, because Count Nesselrode afterwards declared that the Emperor Alexander intended to adhere to the terms laid down by the Emperor Nicholas, that he was prepared to admit the right of Turkey to command the Straits, as well as the right of the allies to enter the Black Sea with their fleets, provided Russia was permitted to enter into the Mediterranean. Now no one would attempt to deny that Prince Gortschakoff had these terms before him at the period of the conferences. Nevertheless a very long period elapsed before negotiations were re sumed, but when they were Prince. Gortschakoff stated explicitly that Russia would not take the initiative. He at the same time, however, made two very important declarations • and, first of all, he declared that Russia would not submit to any regulation that would infringe her sovereign rights over her own territory. Now, it appeared to him (Lord St. Leonards), that from that moment the conferences ougbt to have been at an end. However, after a time it was decided by the four Powers that the proper mode of carrying into effect the third point was by a limitation of the Russian fleet in the Black Sea. But Prince Gortschakoff entirely dissented to any such result, declaring that in the eyes of the Russian Government a "formidable" Russian fleet was necessary in the Black Sea to maintain the integrity of the Turkish empire. Now, he was bound to state, comparing that declaration with the former refusal of Russia to guarantee the Turkish empire her present ter ritory, that in evasion and avoidance of the object of the Allies Russia ei , played unequalled ingenuity and sagacity. He oertainly regretted the concurrence of M. Drouyn de I'Huva in the view taken by Austria, be cause thereby Germany might be induced to believe that the Allies had thrown away a chance of peace. However, he believed her Majesty's Government could not have done otherwise than reject those terms o . f peace ; and he could say the same of the terms t n o eluded in the proposition of Austria subsequent i the breaking up of the conference ; for virtually the two first points of that settlement bad been d!ilsirc:atatshies conference, while a peace adjudicated up would only have given Russia an opportunity of playing still further with Turkey. (Hear, hear.) He_should not Much doubt if this loan ended in a subsidy. In his opi nion also it was impolitic to take the particular of secu rity on the tribute of Egypt and revenu. , of Smyrna. How were we to enforce the retnedv against Egypt? ard were we to take possession of the custom-house at &nyrna in case of non-payment! (Hear.) No sane man could suppose that Turkey, at the present moment. c-uld meet the obligation require l of her.. The roble and learned lord then commented on the translation of the words solidairement and conjointenunt, ar d cattended that by that trenalation the Queen of Enriand was made to guarantee the whole of the loan jointly with the Empe ror and severally by herself, whereas the Emperor wPs only bound to guarantee it jointly with the Queen. (Hear.) The noble earl (Clarenrlon) on a former occasion had said that the question of trans'ation made nn difference with regard to the liability ; but he (Lord St. Leonardo) in sisted that thie guarantee would permit the creditor, if Turkey did not pay, and France and England -did not pay, to compel this country to pay the entire sum. If there was one debt from which a man shrunk more than from another, it was a debt which he had guaranteed— (hear)—and he, therefore, thought it would have been better if Englard had not undertaken to pay the whole, although he had not the slightest doubt with regard to the perfect good faith of Francs. (Hear.) Before he sat down be would make a suggestion with regard to the dates for the payment of the instalments of interest. At present the obligation of Turkey was to remit the half yearly interest on 25th June end the 26th of D tcember. Now he would suggest th e fi rs t paymen t s h ould be made to fall after the 25th of June, as we should have a right to suppose that the money would have previously found its way into the Bank of England. With regard to the loan of our ally, he should have preferred that it had been applied to the military purposes of Turkey, and to the sustainment of that army in Asia Minor, where a fatal blow might be struck at the power of Ittmia- The Earl of CLARENDONsaid the noble and learned lord need make no apology for addressing to theiF lord- ships a speech in which be had gone with'se much clear ness into the protocols and conferences of Vienna. He had summed up all the proceedings in a manner calcu lated to have a great effect in the country ; but there was only one part of his speech to which he (the Earl of Clarendon) should think it necessary to address him self. The noble and learned lord had referred to the delay of eighteen days in the communication of her Majesty's Government with respect to the third point, and seemed to think that such delay must have had a prejudicial effect on the military operations at Sehas tor el— that it would be impossible to carry on the war with the same vigour and courage when fresh nego tiations for peace were going on. Now, that remark would apply to any period during the negoti ations, as the object of the conferences was to obtain peace. Both France and England had intimated to their respective commanders that hut little reliance could be placed on the negotiations, and that they were not to relax, but increase their effort.. The noble and learned lord had also expressed his regret that Lord J. Russell had so far lent himself to certain propositions at Vienna, and had creat e d a no ti on i n E urope, an d more particularly in Germany, that we had rejected terms which ought to have been acceded to. Lord John Rus sell had been made the subject of a good deal of misre nresentation. He had certainly gone to Vienna, and his conduct showed he entertained an ardent desire for neaee ; but he would have acted unjustly if be bad re fused to bring the propositions under the notice of the English Government. With regard to the loan, it was ne ceecary for Turkey, for unless her army was well equipped, clothed, and paid. she corld not render us that assistance we relied upon. The noble and learned lord seemed to think a subsidy would have b3en the better course ; and he (the Earl of Clarendon) was far from dissenting from the Earl of Ellenhorough when he said that if this war continued we might have to resort to a system of aid re pugnant to the feelings of the people of this country. But we could not have taken that course in the present instance. Turkey said to us, "I have the means and the intention of paying both the prineinal and interest of the loan I am compelled to raise for the common cause ; bet if von, England and France, go surety for me, I shall obtain the money much more easily snd on much better terms, ard shall be better able to carry on the war." Was there any ground for our paying " Yen have no such means for paying the debt ?" But if that were so, what right hal we to insist on Turkey accepting the loan as a present ? There had never vet been a treaty or bond the fulfilment of which did not more or less depend on the honour and ability of the party to it ; but look ing to the character and objects of this convention, it appeared to him to he as simple and straightforward a transaction, and as little likely to cause difficulty as any other could have been. With respect to the translation, it certainly was considered in the Foreign-office that " solidairement" was nothing but a repetition for " con jointement," and that "solidairement" was nothing but "jointly" and "conjointly." Bet it was the bond, not the act, which would define the claim of the creditor upon the debtor. L.rrl ST. LEONARDS said be did not recommend a gulAdy per se, but thought it preferable to the guarantee direct. The LORD CHANCELLOR, although he could not say that the translation bad been well done. cansiderfd that his noble and learned friend had somewhat inaccu rately described its scope. Between nations an arrange. ment of this kind was different to what it w uld be be tween individuals. In the case of individuals, if one of the parties failed, the creditor might sue both or either ; but in contracts between states and individuals no suit could take place. If application were made to one or the other, and payment were got from one or the other, the rights of the two nations would not depend on the form of the instrument, but on the engagement entered into. Lord ST. LEONARD'S said that the French Go vernment had correctly expressed an intention, but we had mistranslated the words of the treaty. (Hear.) The vote then passed through committee. The Island of Tobago Loan Bill was read a second time ; and their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—(YESTERDAY.) KENSINGTON GARDENS, &c. On the motion of Mr. BUTLER, the following re• ,urns were ordered : "Of the extent in acres of Kensington Gardens, ITyde Park, St. James's Park, the Green Park, Regent's Park, and Victoria Park, showing also, as regards Victoria-park, the quantity of land which by the Act 4 and 5 Vic., c. 27, the Commissioners of Woods were authorised to purchase for the purposes of the park, and the proportion of such land which they were by that act empowered to appropriate for building purposes ; also, showing the quantity of land which was actually purchased by them, and the portions thereof which by the Act 14 and 15 Vic., c. 46, were placed under the management of the Commissioners of Land Revenue, and were directed to be leased by them, ex hibiting also the quantities within and without the park fence. " Of the moneys expended upon Victoria Park up to the 10th day of October, 1851, distinguishing the out. lay incurred in the purchase of land from that incurred in works and maintenance, and of the moneys expended respectively by the Commissioners of Land Revenue in each year since the 10th day of October, 1851, upon the portions of the park placed under their management, and by the Commissioners of Works in each year in the same period in the payment of salaries, and in the main tenance of the residue of the said park. " And, of the sources from which the money so expended has been derived, whether from the sale of York House, from the income of the land revenue, vote of Parliament, or other sources." Lord PALMERSTON withdrew the Cambridge Uni versity Reform Bill, and the order for the second read ing was discharged. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The bowie then went into committee on this bill. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he felt it his duly to make a few explanatory observations relative to the principle and objects of this bill. He regretted that the bill should have come in at so late a period of the ses sion. This had been ascribed to motives, on his part, of dislike to the bill, and to motives of sordid cha racter, but there never was a more unjust insinuation thrown out. Mr. KNIGHT moved that the bill be comtnittedllat day three months. He objected to th e l a t e period of the session at which .the measure was introduced, which, till be beard the Attorney-General's disclaimer, he ima gined had been delayed on purpose ; for he was sure this bill would never have been passed if it had been brought forward a month ago. He objected to the enormous powers which this bill gave the commissioners, and which, he said, would effectually prevent any respectable man from ever again becoming trustee of a charity. After criticising unfavourably the details and machinery of the bill, he moved that it be committed that day three months. Sir W. JOLLIFFE seconded the amendment. Dr. MICHELL complained that the powers of the commissioners, as proposed in this bill, far from being too large, were not large enough. He proposed to place all charities with incomes under 8501. a year under the control of the commissioners. Mr. A. PELLATT opposed the bill. Sir G. GREY hoped that, now the bill was 'discussed, they would go into committee and effect such amend ments as might be thought proper. Mr. CAIRNS complained that the large powers pro posed to be conferred upon the Charity Commissioners might be, for anything that appeared, exercised in pri vate, and that was an arrangement which he did not think the country would tolerate. He would not grudge even extended powers being granted to the commission' ers, but then they should b e con f erre d as part of a'wu considered scheme, with care taken that theyw ere _ exer cised in public. He recommended that this b i ll be withdrawn, and that a new bill with mo re when powers should be introduced next year, nn would be more time to consider it. t nded that the The SOLICITOR•GENERAL n his w op n in e ion, the late period of the session, t c i n oh . n i d b uo ei j er B u e ag th s rile t tod ui i t u o m : t y r ne he, e.s e strong estby passing reason that this o measure, ul d beu r g w e dt a d o s b i o'irreadt lhel lesipAwi nehaldeOrArtuttehisoLeeeealttpdhiNonrmeeeS that had already been wasted ' y sittings of the commissioners, lieity, therecfoarier,nws,oualndd bea He defended the s on nd hindrance instead o f . tnhoetgjraodnicnidaiwadht: priva te 3a t tr ea h ht e le i p lruup urged on the matters o g e n ci c Het t b i () r y e 1 rep lied Dir. ed they were con tended a; could properly be remedied in committee. that even if they were . well found Mr. HENLEY repeated some of the objections m gad by previous speakers against the privacy in which — the v C e 0 u T p E t a h r i e d Mr.judicial commissioners sere to exercise their functions upon the commissioners in this bill.

Business Court of Chancery Bill, 'r. HADFIELD moved that the house do now ad jour, 1. At ter some discussion the committee was postponed till tt e morning sitting of this day. The order for.the Partnership Amendment Bill was discb arged. The- School Grants (Severity for Application) Bill was read a second . time: • , The i notion for going 'into committee on the Crime and Out.-age (Ireland) Continuance Bill was opposed by Mr. Bow YER and others; but was carried by a majority of 39 to LS. The house then went into committee. After a long discussion on the, chums,. the committee Was " counted out" at three o'clock. SPORTING INTELLIGENOIL TATERSALL'S—MONDAY, Beyond paying and receiving on the Goodwood events —the accounts for the week being, as newt!, very heavy —only a limited amount of business was transacted. Although large sums of money changed bands, much remains to be paid. Unfavourable reports respecting a few absentees leave little to be hoped for by their creditors. The conduct of one in particular was most emphatically condemned ; for it is well known that he won a large stake at. Asoot, and also at Liverpool, and that the means of paying are within his power.` -- In the course of the afternoon the . committee of the room decided that the race for the Chesterfield Cup at Goodwood was a p.p. race, and therefore that all bets re specting the Queen Mab filly, whose jockey did not take her to the post in time to start, must be paid. This decision appears to be-strangely at variance with the decision in the following ease, whieh is recorded in the " Book Calendar For the Stand Cup at Liverpool races, July, 1829, Velociped e was sad d le i ; mounted, and brought out, but on being Cantered the rider found him lame and did not take him to the post to start. • "A question re.pectine the bets was submitted to the' stewards of ,the Jockey Club, who decided that the bete were not to be considered play or pay,' the ease not coining within the provisions of the following clause of the rules and orders:— . . " When the riders of any horses brought out to run for any race are called upon by the persons appointed to start them to take their place for that purpose, the owner of every horse which comes up to the post *hall be con sidered liable to pay his whole stake, and all beta re- • specting such horses shall be considered as play or pay bets."' • Towards the close of the afternoon speculation on coming events was resumed ; but it was kept within very narrow limits, as the subjoined list will show : BRIGHTON STAKES.—Baroncino was in . high favour from 3to 1 he rapidly rose to 6to 4, taken. Quince and Mishap received a small share of support at 6 to limb; and 100 to 15 was taken about Winkfield.. EBOR HANDICAP.—At first 7 to 1 was taken to 501. about Homily, and 15 to 1 was laid against Midsummer. At the close, however, 9 to 1 WAS offered against the former, and 10 to 1 taken to 50/. about the latter. ST. LEG ER.—The investments on Onlston at 6 to 4 and 11 to S, exceeded 300/. ; 10 to 1 would have been taken freely about Grmculua Esuriens. Noisy was intro. duced at 20 to 1. DERBY.—The principal bets were 10 to 1: to 3001. abo'it Wentworth ; 6,000 to 150 about - Van Galen, and the same about Villiers ; and 3,000 to 75 about Coup de Main. Closing prices : MIMI/TON STAMM.
