Raeburn, Esq. , The Honourable East India Company has determined to lay a telegraphic cable from Kurrachee to the head of the Per sian Gulf. The Austrian Government has established a company with the requisite capital, paid up and guaranteed by the State, for constructing and laying dbwn a Submarine Electric Tele graph, in connection with its land lines, from Castara or Ragusa, on the coast of the Adriatic, touching at Corfu, Zante, and Candia to Alexandria, and thence by Jaffa and Beyrout to Seleucia ; and have just concluded a contract for the immediate execution of the work. The Austrian Company gives to the English Government and the East India Company a priority over the public in transmitting their messages. The European and Indian Juction Telegraph Company (Limited) is established with the view to continue the elec tric communication from Soleucia, along tilt. lineline of the pro posed railway, by Aleppo, Ja'ber Castle, and the Valley of the Euphrates, to the head of the Persian Gulf, thus complet ing the only remaining link between India and England. The English Government will soon be able to communicate with Malta and Corfu by a line to those islands from Cag liari, in the Island of Sardinia, to which point the Mediter ranean Electric Telegraph is advanced. From Cagliari, the French and Sardinian Governments will have direct telegraphic communication with Alexandria and the East. All parts of India are or are about to be brought in tele graphic communication with Kurrachee, and the cable from thence of the East India Company to the head of the Persian Gulf, with the wires to be laid down by this Company will bring India by nearly 2000 miles nearer England and the Continent. When the Submarine and Indian systems meet at Seleucia the connection between the East and the West will be com plete, and England, the Continent, and India will be in hourly communication. From the arrangements contemplated it is certain that the best and safest telegraphic routes will be. secured to this country. The Austrian Government has most strikingly evinced its interest in this great undertaking, and its desire to main tain the position as the medium of communication between other nations, by undertaking the completion of so large a portion of the line. The British Government and the Hon. East India Com pany duly appreciate the power of supervision and control put into their hands by the telegraph, binding together in one the isolated and distant dependencies of the empire, and are prepared to extend their countenance and support in a fair and liberal spirit. The merchant and the shipowner are well acquainted with the inestimable value to them of the power of imparting and receiving prompt information. It is well known that heavy loss has been suffered by the Indian mercantile community through the non•receipt of immediate news of the adoption of the Austrian propositions for peace. The heavy contracts made in Calcutta and Bombay in January last, for oil seeds, jute, and saltpetre, would have been prevented by a singlo message. But the grand source of revenue will be derived from the constant desire to communicate which is felt by members of families when at a distance from each other; and when it is considered how many thousands of families in Englani have some near relative in India, the revenue, it is believed, from this source alone, will be very large. From the most reliable data that can be collected, the 'Directors feel confident that, besides the pecuniary assistance that may be expected from Government and the Honourable East India Company, a highly remunerative return may be expected on the capital embarked. The Directors have the satisfaction of stating that they have secured the valuable co-operation and assistance of Mr. John Watkins Brett, the inventor and projector of the Sub marine Telegraph. Mr. O'Shaughnessy, Superintendent of Telegraphs in India, having already laid down in that country 4,000 miles of elec tric wire with extraordinary economy and success, and as the cable in connection with the Indian system is about being carried from Kurrachee to Kurnah, at the head of the Persian Gulf, under his supervision, an application has been addressed to the Court of Directors of the Honourable East India Com pany with the view to secure the advice of this eminent and successful ( fficer to this Company, so as to insure uniformity of design and management throughout, from Calcutta and Peshawur, Rombay, and Madras, to Seleucia. The Honour able Court have already intimated that they " would have no objection to the experience which he (Mr. O'Shaughnessy) has acquired in India being made available for the line through Asiatic Turl ey." " The electric telegraph is the most beautiful and surprising invention of the age, and nothing is more interesting than to learn its rapid progress and wonderful results. The tele graphs of America are surpassed in length, solidity of con struction, and cheapness of working by those which within tire last few years, while we at home have been debating and fighting on the Eastern question, have been carried over the length and breadth of India. From Calcutta to the Indus, to Bombay, to Madras, the messages of Government and indi viduals are speeded in a few hours, at a cost comparatively trifling. Ceylon is to be united to the mainland, and the time is already looked upon as near when the Telegraph will cross the Mediterranean, run along the Red Sea and the coasts of the Indian Ocean (or rather by the Euphrates and the Per sian Gulf), and unite London and Calcutta in hourly commu nication. We cannot doubt that this work will be soon achieved, and that no very long period will elapse before the wires extend to Canton and Shanghai, and perhaps, running from island to island, will stretch on to Sydney and Mel bourne, and the great settlements of the antipodes."—Times, June 16,1856.

Yesterday, Mr. Thomas George Gosling, a gentleman of fortune, residing at Portland-place, was charged at the Marylebone Police-court, on a summons, which had been placed in the hands of Baldwin, the officer, ":with having, on the 9th ult., in the Regent's-park, wilfully incited and procured dicers females of tender age, that is to say, Emma Colley, Innes Jones, and two others, to openly, lewdly, and indecently expose their persons in the sight of him, the said Thomas George Gosling, and of divers persdns then passing and-repassing, and being in the said public place, 'Ea-the great scandal and injury of the public morals, and against the peace," /tc. The other two females were not preselit. Complaints of indecency with regard to like praotites in the park have been made to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests—the offence being considered of a very serious character. Mr. Bodkin prosecuted the case. Mr. Sergeant Ballangne attended for the defen dant, Mr. Gosling ; and Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, Hol born, was engaged for the females Colley and Jones. Mr. Bodkin stated that he had . been instructed by the Chief Commissioner of Woods and Forests to pro ceed with the charge against the defendant, as by law Regent's-park was placed under his' control. When the facts of the present charge were: made known to Sir Benjamin Hall he found that he had no alterna tive than to put • the law in force in reference tp charges of the description mentioned in the summons, considering that an example ought to be made of those who offend public decency and public morals. He was sorry to have to support a charge against a gen tleman who is a mars holding a respectable position in sneiety,,and who, he believes, has hitherto held an un blemished character. But the law knows no distinction, and if the evidence he should adduce be sufficient to upport the, charge, the case rnusUltimatellsol,..befare a --- He thought the facts would be of — that strong character that the magistrate would feel it his duty to send this case for the consideration of a jury, as it was desirable to prevent a repetition of such offences. ,The learned counsel proceeded to observe that the evidence of two persons would be brought forward who would prove what took place on the day stated in the summons, and it would be shown that they saw those young per sons lying on their backs, and exposing themselves in the most indecent manner. According to their evidepes it will be shown that the defendant came up, and sluirtly after took a seat upon a bench in front of the Paqi where the females were lying. In a short time aft* hie was observed to speak to the girls, and to point with a stick he had in his band to another part of the park. The girls got up and crossed the Broad-walk. He (Mr. Gosling) afterwards left his seat, and went in another direction across the Broad-walk. They were afterwards seen by one of the witnesses he should produce near a hollow. The girls were in it in an indecent posture. The learned counsel then stated what was the conduct of the defendant Gosling, with other particulars, which were given in evidence, and observed that the girls ran away, and that Mr. Gosling was eventually given into custody. He was taken to the police-station, where the sergeant on duty, after looking over, the various Acts of Parliament in reference to such charges as that with which he was charged, allowed him to de part. He (Mr. Bodkin) observed that it was a common law offence, and that he thonght the worthy magistrate would consider it his duty to send the case before an other tribunal. The following witnesses were then called-- Mr. Henry Warren, No. 58, Ernest-street, Regent's. park, said that he was assistant to his father, a book seller, in London-street, Tottenham-court-road, and that he was a married man. About eight o'clock on the evening of the 9th of July he was in the Regent's-park, near what is called the Cow-park. He had two of his children with him —one, a boy about four years of age. running about gathering butter-cups the other, 15 months old, he had in his arms. He got up to a spot where there was a hollow. There he saw four females lying on their backs. He next saw the defendant. Go sling in front of them. He went up . to where they were lying, and took up their clothes successively one after the other, which he raised up to their waists. Witness can identify Colley Jones and another of the girls. They were there a short time with their clothes raised. By Mr. Bodkin—They were left up till Mr. Mitchell came. Mr. Gosling was turned away from me. I was on high ground, and they were in a hollow. While I was looking at them my son came up and said, "Father, what a lot of buttercups there are." He spoke so loud that he was heard by Mr. Gosling, who got up. He was previously kneeling. I saw Mr. Gosling give some silver to one of the females. Mr. Mitchell then came Mr. Ballantine —At what part of the transaction was the money given you alleged to have been given ? Witness—When he was kneeling down. ' In answer to further questions the witness said that the first time he saw Mitchell was a few days ago, when he was passing through the posts near Chester-terrace. He had no conversation with him. The only time he was in conversation with him was when he went to measure the ground in the Regent's-park, where the oc currence took place. He was about eight yards from the defendant when he saw him. John Mitchell, a licensed drover, formerly a shepherd attached to the Regent's-park, said that on the 9th of July he was near CheAer-terrace-gate, Regent's-park, when be saw the defendant, Gosling, go toward some girls, who were in a very indecent position. He sat on a bench before them, and he afterwards, with a stick, pointed to another part of the park. The females got up, and went in the direction towards which he pointed. He soon after followed, but did not go in the same di rection they did. Witness went towards the spot at which the defendant (Gosling) stopped, and he there foun him standing in front of the females, who were in a hollow in that part of the park called the Cow-park. They had their clothes above their waist, and the defen dant was attentively looking at them. Mr. Ballantyne requested that the exact wordd of the witness might be take.), down. The witness, in continuation said that he called Mr. Gosling a blackguard. One of the females observed that Mr. Gosling was a magistrate, and that he would not get anything from him. (Laughter.) Witness afterwards met Brooks, one of the Regent's-park constables, and in consequence of what he stated to him, Mr. Gosling was taken to the station•heuse. On the witness's cross-examination by Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, it appeared that on the Saturday night previous to the 9ih of July he first saw the witness Warren near Chester -terrace. He was lying on the grass with his two children, and there were some of the girls at some distance before him. Witness had no conversation with him. He (witness) remained there a short time. His object in doing so was to wait to see if any-gentleman would (*me forward hi take up the case against the girls, when he would have appeared as a witness. He never caught a gentleman before. He had no conversation with Warren on the 9th of July, nor did he see him till he observed him with Brooks on the Saturday the girls were exposing themselves. Wit ness could not say whether Warren was in a position to see the girls. George Brooks said that upon receiving information of the offence alleged to have been committed by the defendant, which had been communicated to him by the witness Warren, he took immediate steps to appre hend the whole of them. The girls succeeded in making their escape. He then gave directions to the constable (Walsh) to take Mr. Gosling into custody. The reason he did so was, because he was told that some - money had been given by him to one of the girls. Walsh stated that he went after the defendant Gos lint,►, and that upon being taken into custody be said, " I wish I had my solicitor. 'Let me go, and I will never come into the park again." He was taken to the station•house, Albany-street. He gave his name and address. The charge was not taken down, and he was told he might go. He (Walsh) wished to know if be (defendant) had given his right name and address. The sergeant said he might do as he pleased. He went I with the defendant to Portland-place, and found that the address was correct, and that the defendant lived there. 31;. Bodkin stated that this was the whole of the evidence. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine observed that, while he agreed it was of extreme importance that measures should be taken to preserve the public morals, he thought the magistrate would be of his opinion, that no case had been made out against his client suffi cient to induce him to send the case to be decided by a jury. What were the circumstances of the case? Mr. Gosling, when charged with the offence, gave his name and address, and offered no hesitation to go with the officers to the station-house, where the officer on duty declined to take the charge, and it was found that he had given his correct address There were but two wit nesses to the present charge, whose evidence, be should be able to show, was most contradictory. He asked Warren when he first saw the other witness, Mitchell, when he stated that it was on an occasion as he was passing between some posts to enter the park. He inquired of Mitchell when was the first time that ho had any knowledge of Warren, and he re plied that it was on a Saturday previous to the day on which the present offence took place. It was remarkable that the witnesses who had given evi dence in this charge should have been the same persons who, on the Saturday in question, saw some of the females in the position as described by the witness Mit chell, and who observed that he was stopping near the girls for the purpose of seeing if any gentleman would came up in order to prosecute them (the girls), when he would offer himself as a witness. It would appear as if it had been a plant against his client. Mr. Gosling did not shrink from a full ins estigation of the present charge, which his conduct had shown he was desirous to He is a man of we4tb, and, if he wi s h e d, h e cou ld h ave left the country. Ile has nos taken that course. The learned sergeant further remarked that there was a great discrepancy in the evidence of these witnesses as to what took place when Warren stated that he first saw the de fendant—ho stating that he saw Mitchell :some up, while the latter remarked that he never saw Warren till he (Kitchell) got up to the park constable. After deliver ing a most eloquent address on behalf of his client, and remarking that he was incapable of the offence imputed t 3 him, he called on the magistrate to dismiss the sum mons. Mr. Lewis also replied on behalf of his client. Mr. Broughton observed that, without giving an opi nion upon the evidence, he considered it his duty to send the case for trial. He could not imagine that any con spiracy existed on the part of the witnesses ; and, if he dismissed the summons, it Would lead to the supposition that they (the witnesses) were guilty of gross perjury. But nothing had been shown to impute the slightest charge against the witnesses of an attempt to extort money, in order to prevent the present charge being brought for ward. Then, on the defendant bang charged with the offence, beremarks, "I wish I had my solicitor. Let me go, and I promise you I will never enter the pat k again."" One would have supposed that if innocent he would have felt most indignant at the charge, and would have at once staid, "I will come again ; I will not leave the park upon such an infamous charge." He (Mr. Broughton) was clearly of opinion that it was his duty to let this case be decided by a jury. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine asked the magistrate what amount of bail he should require, as his client was fully prepared to meet the charge. He stated that there were parties present who would become responsible for any sum that might be named. After some discussion with regard to the amount of bail, the defendant, Mr. Gosling, was held to bail, him self in 4,0001., and two sureties in 2,0001. each, to meet the charge at the sessions. The sureties were Mr. L. Bohn, bookseller, Regent street, and Mr. Archibald Boyd, cabinet-maker, &c., Edward-street, Portman-square. Spirit of the Public Journals. (From the Times!) There is nothing which astonishes those foreign ers who extend their tours in England beyond 66 , precincts 9f Leicester .and Golden te u rq.ntore than the Indffitr - enetilinetig nee gqiir'pect ph) respecting foreign affairs. Accustomed to be lieve in the ambitious and Machiavellian craftiness of England, her aspirations after external influence and extensive dominion, they are astonished to find that Englishmen ' generally know and care little about other nations, and have very dim notions of their own relations towards them. A fact to us so well known, but so little estimated abroad, ex plains the little sympathy and the partial antagon ism excited by Mr. Layard's address to his con stituents at Aylesbury last week. To judge from the present tone of the public mind, and certain rare speeches of the parsimonious school, there has been no conflict, no danger to the liberties of Eu rope, no hazard of future aggression ; everything is going on placidly and hopefully ; no need of alarm, vigilance, or preparation. It remains for .the tax-collector's visits and the grocer's bills to remind us that we have not yet done paying for,e war which was very expensive for its length, and which might have been expected to be much longer than it was. But for this the war itself might have been forgotten, as its objects certainly are by mul titudes even of those who expressed great anxiety during its continuance, and great apprehensions touching its results. This is an evil feature in our ,social phenomena. We have lately borne our sincere and hearty testi mony to the virtue and efficacy of that Fabian policy which, instead of hurrying a crowd of etude projects through the Legislature, allows a suffi ciency of time for their ventilation, analysis, sifting, and discussion ; which brings to bear upon each particular enactment the greatest possible amount -of public interest, public attention, public sympathy, and accordance; and which defers legisla tion rather than suppress debate. But it would seem that on the great and momentous questions of peace and war—of the objects for which war was waged and the conditions on which peace was con: cliided—ofthe observance of those Conditions, and the probability or improbability that future inter vention may be necessary to secure the performance of those stipulations for which blood and treasure have so freely flowed,—on these questions the mind of the people is asleep, their senses dull, their ap prehension dead. On many of the electors of Ayles bury Mr. Layard's speech must have fallen much in the same way as a dithyrambic of Pindar or a para. basis of Aristophanes. But there were points in that speech to which the events of a few years hence may give a more vivid colouring and a more striking significance than they bear at present. Of the anxiety displayed by the French people and Government to conclude the peace we need say little. The little we can say is less flattering to ourselves than to them. They, at any rate, had done their part of the work with unmixed vigour and effect. They had not, like their allies, any motive for desiring another campaign to repair their credit, or for setting one portion of a military clique to the task of whitewashing another. They are not so wealthy as we are, but they employed what money they had iu a manner which a mer cantile people might justly admire. They did the most they could, and gave over spending as soon as they could, and, having nothing further to ex pect in the way of ambition or indemnification, they took the first opportunity that presented itself , for terminating a war which began to draw upon their resources. This may suggest to the English people some wholesome reflections on the commer cial value of a sound and strong military organisa tion ; and, if it does so, Mr. Layard's remarks will not have been thrown away. With respect to the Russian observance of the treaty, the electors of Aylesbury and of all the boroughs throughout the kingdom will probably be equally indifferent to it until the lapse of years shall have matured either the machinations of a perfidious policy or the opportunities of a season able aggression ; and then they will all awake to condemn the Government of the country for an indifference which was equally chargeable to them selves. Meanwhile, it is not pleasant to find that, profiting by the recent conclusion of the war, the Russians have already destroyed the fortresses of Kars, Reni, and Ismail, which they were bound to restore intact to the Turks. We shall, perhaps, next hear of their attempting to filch a property in, or control over, the navigation of the Danube beyond the limitations of the treaty. Our best guarantee against this is founded on the rival pre tensions and, competing interests of Austria; other wise it would be difficult, as yet, to excite any in terest on the part of the English people in a ques tion which does in fact materially affect the com mercial development of this country. But, indifferent as they may be to foreign politics, the electors of the kingdom are far from being generally indifferent to questions of go- cial progress ; and there is one point of inter section between home and foreign politics which Mr. Layard opportunely noticed. If we have not assumed a sufficiently influential tone in recent important negotiations, it is because we had not realised either our own expectations or those of foreign States during the war ; we had lost, or wasted by mismanagement in a degree dispropor tionate to ourpreparations, our resources, and the courage which our men displayed on the actual field of battle. And why was this ? Because the high offices of the army, like the high offices of the State, are the inheritance of some twenty great families or the perquisites of their adherents. They are given by right of descent, favour, and connexion, not of merit or service. A man is placed on the staff on the army, invested with direct power or with great indirect influence, not because he has studied the military profession as a successful lawyer has stu died law, or as a successful physician has studied medicine, or as a merchant has studied commerce, but because he is the son of Lord A, or nephew of General B, or cousin of Mr. Secretary C. The con sequences are as natural as they are lamentable. An army withers beneath their ungenial command. The power, dignity, and honour of the empire are compromised because its soldiers are led by men who think it low —or, at any rate, quite super fluous—to study subjects with which every General and every subaltern in foreign armies are familiar. The same thing in civil departments. The great offices of State are held to be the legitimate pro perties of certain great families. No one pretends that the holders of them are the most capable men of business, the most accomplished financiers, or the most eloquent debaters that the country can produce. It is notorious that in some departments the ablest minutes bearing the signature of the chief are the work of some gifted clerk, hardly known beyond the small official world. If Eng land is so served, the colonies are served worse. Anything is good enough for them. .Service, ex perience, exposure to climate and disease , isola tion from the comforts and amenities of home, exile encumbered by the most repulsive burdens of official life—such things aro no recommendation, and gain no reward for the subordinate who has faithfully discharged his duties in any remote de pendency of the CroWn ; and who must continue still to labour on, only too thankful if he bo not doomed to smart under the capricious injustice of petty authority, or to humour the absurd crotchets of ambitious ignorance. Yet whose fault is this ? Surely the fault of the constituencies. They aro responsible for the nomi nation of such men to high places. If they do not feel the evil they need not trouble themsel ves about a remedy ; but if they do feel it, they cannot be too thankful to men who have boldly and un- ~. ---~- - . _____ ~..---- / /"." --- 2 ( ;----- de/ ' -- / ,e, y . /. - ,c , "ZZ _ . f r / (- ,7 7- halt d i e ' ratindti A equ i p o Mt; and therefora a -- - - ei ' 1 , ---_,. ~ . i ; ''' " c u lim sl e op m in u g st t b o e wa v r is d i:ed ui . and iti s south proved, L .......r. ,-,.; 5.4.,,.0- zi. , /.

Our readers will not have forgotten our com ments on that declaration appended to the treaty of Paris by which Lord Clarendon took upon him self to abolish the law of England as fur as it re lated to the employment of our maritime power in time of war. They will remember the very copious extracts we gave from law authorities, from the despatches of former statesmen, and from the cor respondence of such naval heroes as Nelson, as well as the arguments with which we accompanied this overwhelming mass of authority, all tending to prove certain posibions which we then enumerated, and some of which we will hero repeat. First, that the right of search for and seizure of enemies' property in neutral vessels is a perfect and natural right inherent in war itself; that the application of the right of confiscation of enemies' goods has never been disputed by land, and that to deny its enforcement by soa is to withdraw all maritime power from a nation possessing it. Secondly, that this right has never been disputed to England save by Russia, or by powers influ enced by Russia, and leagued together under her auspices. Thirdly, that' at the commencement of the war with Russia this right was waived by English Mi nisters, in virtue of a secret understanding with that power ; and that at the conclusion of the war it was abandoned by the English ambassador, with out the consent of the Parliament, and without setting forth the authority of the Crown.

This brings us at once to the question that we have recently called attention to—that all this danger, air-this violation of law, all this insecurity and wrong, would be prevented by revertingto the ancient practice of giving the Council of her Ma jesty a prior knowledge of what the Executive in tend to carry into effect. Had the Privy Council been assembled by her Majesty to take into consideration the proposals of Russia for peace, it is perfectly obvious that (omit ting for the present any mention of the clauses of the treaty itself) no such declaration as that made by the Earl of Clarendon would have been possible. As it is, 'England is placed in the position of being compelled to accept whatever the purpose of one man chooses to inflict upon her. There may, indeed, be after-expostulation and after-protest ; but that protest has no further result than to bring into comparison the patriotism of those who make it, and their utter powerlessness to use that pa triotism to any good effect. feTv - VigiFirliniffelfee. I.n crossing the Charlet we, feel an, escape from. the necessity of having all of us to do the same things in the same way—from the weariness of the 'English weekday and the dul ness of the English Sunday. The tourist's life abroad is a kind of primitive existence ho dresses as he likes, eats when he is hungry, drinks when he is thirsty—which, as a general rule, is somewhat often—and in this very contrast to his ordinary life consists much of the relaxation which his trip affords. .But still it cannot be doubted that many go abroad who care little for what they will see on the continent. Families who would be much more comfortable and happy in their own island think it necessary to follow the general example, and the mania for annual travelling is communicated from one to another until it has become almost part of the nature of the people. Now, we can scarcely doubt that much of this wandering is the result of insufficient attractions at home. It is not that nature has done little for us ; the country is beautiful, our mountains and lakes are at least finer than any that two-thirds of the kingdoms of Europe can boast ; the British islands are not a vast plain, such as extends over Northern Europe as far as the Ural Mountains; the climate is, as we said before, the most healthy in the world ; why, then, do not the people prefer their os country ? In a great measure because our water ing places have not kept pace with the require m nts of visitors. There is neither accommoda tion nor amusement. Why should the English man t%it,li a few weeks to spare and a moderate sum to spend go to any place within the limits of the four sees ? lie knows beforehand what he has to expect. His choice is between a lodging-house on some " Marine Parade," with a harpy landlady by day and insect visitants by night to disturb his peace, or one of the hotels, where, with great dis play of plate and pomp of waiters, everything is cord, uncomfortable, and extortionately dear. Amusement there is positively none. Even the recreations of past times have been put an end to by the denunciations of some powerful preacher, whose performances are the nearest approach to theatrical representations suffered in the place. The visitors lounge about, bathe, read last year's novels, and wish the day at an end. The conse quence is they will not come again, and year by year the town, with its fine sands and bracing air, becomes more squalid, dreary, and desolate. Could not something be done to attract the world ? A good hotel is a great want, and one of the best services which limited liability could render would be to supply an establishment which should be able to rival in comfort, excellence, a'id cheapness the hotels of the continent and the New World. The backwardness of this country in such accommoda tion is one of the most surprising things in our civilisation ; for, much as is talked of the domestio habits of the English, they are certainly becoming yearly more and more restless and gregarious, and any one who observes their enjoyment of foreign sociability when released from the restraints of their own indigenous habits will be disposed to believe in the success of any one who will give them on their own ground what they now compass sea and land to obtain. In increasing the attractions of our places of summer residence, both by providing good accommodation and cheerful amusement, lies the chance of diverting our countrymen from a habit which, it must be confessed, is now running into excess. Far different Would be the case if measures were discussed by the Queen in Council assembled. No charge of connivance with an enemy could then be brought against a minister, further than for the individual advice he himself gave. Other coun cillors, other men of honour and ability, would hays the opportunity of testing the habitual character of his advice, and resisting it if injurious ; nor could her Majesty's name and authority then be degraded and made the scape-goat for—to use her own words —"important decision 3 with which she has not •= .n acquainted," and for " measures which have n arbitrarily altered by the minister." ave given one illustration of the absolute ".. ty; for the eitsteration of the functions of the vy Council. Need we multiply them. The examination of Lord Palnierston's whole career will afford abundant matter for example. Take, for instance, the Turkish commercial treaty of 1838. Had that matter been discussed in Council assembled, could any one have failed to see that it was not in the interests of England, but in those of Russia, that Lord Palmerston was stipulating for prohibitory duties on Turkish grain. Could the Affghan war or the China war have occurred had they been so discussed ? Could such a treaty as the Danish treaty of 1852 been nego tiated had all its provisions been previously made clear to every one of her Majesty's Privy Coun cillors ? Would Italy have been insurrectionised in 1848? Would Lombardy, and Hungary, and Austria her self have been betrayed by Lord Palmerston, had there been a Queen and Council cognisant of his transactions ? It is scarcely needful to pursue the subject far ther. On the one hand, there is a country bound hand and foot, and delivered hopelessly over to a minister who is betrayin g it ; on the other, there is the means of letting light into the chaos of Ifreaehery, and rendering the malversations of the minister impossible, by giving men of honour a prior knowledge of his fatal designs. BOYDELL'S NEVER-ENDING RAILWAY APPARATUS. (Prone the Times.) The quarterly return of the Registrar-General is this time a most gratifying document. After all we have heard within the last two years of want, disease, and mortality, it is an agreeable change to turn to the narrative of national health and increase. Seldom were facts and figures more pleasant read ing. The number of marriages celebrated in the first quarter of 1856 is above the average. More boys and girls were born alive and registered than in any previous three months in the history of Eng land. The excess of births over deaths amounted in this part of the United Kingdom to 72,894. The proportion of deaths was not quite 21 in 1,000, the average annual rate of the season being nearly 23 in 1,000. The mortality of the whole of the last half-year has been much below the average rate. Better water and improved sanitary arrangements have much diminished the unhealthiness of the poorer districts of the metropolis and the great towns. On the whole, it is proved, in the opinion of the most competent authorities, that the climate of England is eminently salubrious." "It is well established," says the Registrar-General, " that England is the healthiest country in Europe. France stands next to England in salubrity. In the continental cities the annual rate of mortality is seldom less than 30 in 1,000, and the rate fre quently rises to 40 in 1,000. In London the an nual rate of mortality is 25 in 1,000." On Wednesday a trial of this invention took place at Wejlwich. The "never-ending rail way "is a railway laid down by the vehicle to which it is attached. There are six sections, or " shoes" as they are called, to each wheel, which are propelled by cogs on the inner side of the tier of the wheel, the motive power being a steam-engine. The object is to propel heavy vehicles over roads, or rather over land, where ordinary wheels would sink. The ma chine, when in action, is certainly the most curious and strange-looking thing one may meet with in many a day's journey. The inventor calls it a walking-machine, and the definition in some respects is not incorrect, bat the walk ing has a very awk ward appearance. The sections of the rail rise aoove the wheel, and as it revolves, they, being fixed, of course fall to the ground, but in doing this they seem as if they were about to fall anywhere except in the right place. They do fall in the right place, how ever, and fit compactly, and so far the invention seems perfect enough. The experiment on Wednesday, which was under the inspection of ofacers appointed by the select committee of the Ordnance, was to show the power of the engine and apparatus in drawing heavy guns. The engine used is of 8-horse power. One of the heaviest guns, a 68- pounder, weighing with the carriage about 9i tons, and with the apparatus fixed to the wheels, was drawn by 10 horses out of the Arsenal. They took the route to Plum stead hill, which has a gradient of about one in ten. When about 150 yards up the hill the horses were dead beat ; they were taken out and a fresh team, which had previously drawn up another gun without the apparatus attached, was yoked. They drew the gun to the brow of the hill. The machine followed, and after a small mishap, which occasioned the stoppage of a few minutes, mounted the ascent. The gun-carriage was then attached to the machine, which turned round with it on a bit of waste ground about three times the length of the two vehicles. It then took the gun down the hill, stopping at inter vals, to show the facility of stopping. At the bottom, attempting to turn in too small a space, it stuck in a deep rut, and after some delay the engine was detached, and then the machine worked its way out, and after wards drew the gun a short distance, by attaching a chain cable. The gun-carriage was then again at'ached to the machine in the same way as before, and the ma chine toiled up the hill, but after proceeding a hundred yards or so stopped. Several attempts were made to proceed, but they were ineffectual, the inventor saying there was not steam enough. At length the engine and carriage were detached, and then, by means of a rope about 50 yards long, the machine drew the carriage to the brow of the hill, and afterwards took it back to the Arsenal. The experiment k showed that by means of this apparatus a carriage can be drawn up a bill which a team of ten horses could not do ; but the road was hard and good, and the apparatus is designed for the purpose of drawing heavy vehicles over soft ground, its capabilities cannot be traversed by ordinary vehicles. Of capabilities of doing that no experiment was made on Wednesday. Just at this time Crowds of our countrymen are every day crossing the Channel on continental tours, or with purpose to establish themselves at some continental watering-place. The progress of science is continually widening the circle of British wandering, and the spot which a few years since was thought worthy of a book or a series of sketches is commonplace now, and may be vulgar in a twelvemonth. Yet th e Englishman must go abroad. His fathers, after the Peace, thought not a little of Boulogne ; the adventurous spirit who extended his travels to Paris was somewhat of a lion in own circle ; sisters and cousins were anxious to learn from his deep experiences ; while sager per sons shook their heads, and doubted the prudence of visiting a city which had such a reputation. Now we fly over land and water to the utmost parts of Europe, and every one thinks it necessary to swim in a gondola or smoke long pipes in a caique. The old Englishman who hated foreigners —particularly the French—and preferred a good wholesome joint to all the kickshaws in the world, is to be seen no longer ; his successor of the pre sent day is quite of the opposite school. He knows Paris thoroughly. He has a great notion of his own French. Philologically it may differ from the common tongue in the epicene nature of its genders and the increased irregularity of the verbs ; but it i s never th e l ess a fine forcible DEATH OF A LADY AT BEN RHYDDING, ILICLEY.—On T th u e es ß d e a n y R m h o y rn d i d n i g u , g ß e o s b ta er b t lis S h n m ow en d t e , n o , 5 o'clock, found the body of a lady l y in g dead in a pool of blood.

THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN COPPER COMPANY.— The annual general meeting of the proprietors was held yes terday at the offices of th e company , Old B roa d- s t ree t ; Mr. T. Winkworth i n th e c h air . Th e c h a i rman s t a t e d that in consequence of not receiving the report from Mr. Squarry, the new manager, they considered it would be desirable to adjourn proceedings; at the same time it was satisfactory to know that the operations in the mine were highly productive. A proprietor wished to know whether the accounts and balance-sheet were on the table. The chairman replied that the accounts and ba -1,-nqe sheet were made up, but as it was intended to ad joarn the meeting, it was not desirable they should be gone into at present. The accounts exhibited showed a total expenditure to the 31st December of 37,5021., and - the balance in hand 1701. The proceedings Were then adjourned to let October. language, and the model English tourist of the present day seldom loses an opportunity of dis playing it. But still the 'French metropolis, the Rhine, and the Alps are too near to confer distinc tion on the visitor. What is the poor little ex cursionist to the Rhineland and Chamouny in the presence of one who talks about the Carpa thians or the Second Cataract ? Better not to travel at all than only to be limited to this w ell trodden and now plebeian tether. Thousands can talk of Simpher opol and Trebizonde, the Bay of Smyrna and tho Plain of Baidar ; let us, then, do something great, or sink into insignificance. Hence we go to SwederL and Algeria, Wisconsin and the Albanian coast, take up most of our spare time in a long voyage which is very uncomfortable, and hurry back aff;,er having seen as little as is possible in a two mon. l ,hs' excursion.
