The Royal yacht Victoria and Albert steamed in splendidly, followed in line by the Fairy, Commander Welsh ; Irene Trinity yacht, Capt. Evans; Vivid, Capt. Ii len ; Black Eagle, and Salamander. Shortly afterwards her Majesty embarked in her barge, and proceeded up the river as far as the village of Dittishain, which nestles amid its renowned plum tree orchards. The Prince entered a new river steamer (the Dartmou.h), and ascended nearly as far as Totnee, past the beautiful woods of Sharphaw, which lend their charm to the rich scenery of the Dart. Both her Majesty and the Prince expressed their de light at the attractive features of this lovely river. Oa their return they lauded to take a ehort inland drive, and were received on the steps of the quay by the mayor, aldermen, and council, attended by the corporate officers, amid the enthiv,iastic cheers of multitudes assembled on the Esplanade, called the Now Ground. The ,arty, occupying three carriages, were escorted by Sir Henry Searle to the surrounding heights, which command views of the hay, with Start-point, and the light-house at its extremity. On returning, they were oonducted through the grounds of Mount Boone, Sir Henry's residence. It bein ,, the day preceding the Regatta, her Majesty contributed munificently to the funds, and no doubt this auspicious visit will greatly enhance the brilliancy and gaiety of tie recreation. Ms Majesty's donation is to ho contended for by the boatmen of the town. With the greatest expedition a triumphal arch of ever greens was constructed on the quay. Numerous flags were displayed from tower ar.d h.+lcony, and the merry peals of bells animated the joyous spectacle. An illumi nation, which must be very effectively seen from the squadron, evinces the spirit with which the inhabitants can improvise their rejoicing on this festive occasion. This was most graciously acknowledged by the Royal yacht and the Fairy being illuminated with bluelights. TUESDAY MORNING, Aug. 12. The morning broke cloudy, with slight rain. Wind from the S.W.

By this time, however, it is not too much to expect that the Board should exhibit some degree of intelligence; decision, and purpose in connection with the disposal of the sewage. Withheld from the prosecution of the foolish scheme to which they had given their assent by the judicious interposition of Sir BICNJAM IN HILL, They appear to be quite at sea as to what they should do next, and yet nothing can be easier to letermine. The inhabitants 'of Greenwich, Woolwich, &c., have an inveterate objection to be poisoned by the filth of the metroplis, and public ,picion backs official authority in warding the danger from them. Whlt, then, is to be done ? Why, convey the sewage beyond Gravesend, where it will not return to annoy anybody, but will be carried clean out to sea. bide among them. Even a Judge of the Supreme Court, in that glorious go-ahead land, can use his wits, and his bowie-knife, too, as ingeniously and as promptly as a regl'r Kintuck man. The case we allude to is certainly one in which regular law was suspended on both sides. Judge TERRY, of the Supreme Court of California, con ceived that he had a special calling to put down the Vigilance Committee, which, since the execu Con of the gambling murderers, CASEY and Cons, has kept order by Lynch Lavv in the city of San Francisco. The functions of Judge TERRY and all inferior judges and magistrates were cer tainly in a most provoking state of abeyance. Not, however, before it was needed. Never in modern history had such a gang of gamblers obtained possession of all magisterial and other appointments as in California. By a ballot-box, which Mr. BERKELEY'S oppo nents will not soon forget, they had ele vated a set of thorough vagabonds to the highest ollicee of the State. Mr. HERBERT, the acquitted murderer of the waiter, was their repre sentative; a re tliy fair example of his constituency; —plain honest peoplesuspected nothing, and took therefore no precautions, till one day fifteen hun dred votes wore returned from a district contain ing about three hundred, and five hundred from another which did not muster more than thirty al Zogether.

The only difficulty ,hat can arise with reasonable men is the expense, end however great that may be, is not the good that doing the thing properly will effect worth it ? What is a million, or even more, of expenditure lompared with the purification of the metropolis, tnd the rescue of the inhabitants on the batiks of die Thames, below its site, from exposure to 1 - pestilential effluvia of the sewage ? A hun millions of hard-earned money—if of easy-got taxation—have been expended over a worse than fruitless war, and, strange to tell, the local repre sentatives of between two and three millions of the population of the empire, including perhapn a moiety - of its richest citizens to hesitate about expending a million or so over a merciful and necessary scheme like thiA.

The Royal squadron, from Dartmouth, entered Ply. mouth S )und this forenoon. Tee Victoria and Albert steamed into Hamosza, and was moored near the Rubble. bank.

At 6 o'clock the Royal visitors embarked for Mount Wise, where they joined her Majesty. The Royal family returned to the yacht in the evening.

August 11. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 1856. The Machiavellian principle, "Divide et im pera,"—one that, indeed, has been recognised by Despots from the earliest times of kingcraft—ap pears to be thoroughly understood and acted on by Austria. In Italy she maintains her position by arraying Princes and Peoples, the Goiernors and the Governed, on opposite sides, and sowing dissension and ill-will between them. Her . object in thus rendering the rulers unpopular is to in duce them to believe that their only security against the insubordination of their subjects is to be found in Austrian intervention. This opinion, sedulously cultivated, leads to the toleration of Austrian garrisons and the exercise of military law in their States. The People are naturally dis gusted ; and the indignation excited against the tyrannical and insolent brutality of the Austrian troops is directed against the nominal Princes who consent to the degrading and expensive occu pation. Austria well knows the slender hold which she possesses on Lombardy, and the anxiety En tertained by ',the inhabitants of that beautiful but unhappy land to shake off the hateful yoke. If surrounded by free and inde pendent States, the Austrian supremacy could scarcely be maintained a single week. But by her favourite system of military occupation, and re ducing the neighbouring Princes to mere puppets in her hands, she has numerous ofarrisons on every side, which she can let loose on the devoted Lombards, in the event of their in:tking any effort to achieve their independence. Under such eircumstanws, it is unneces;:-.ry to say with wlat intense and concentrated hatred she detests Sardinia. The appearance of a really • . cons tit u tional Government casts Lcit b u t powerful censure on the despotic sy s t em main _ tithed by herself and her puny ' The re cognition of Vioroa E3IIIANUEL as the champion of Italian liberty is gall and wormwood to the jealous German, and willinly would she seize any pretext for invading and crushing one whom it is difficult to say whether she most hates or dreads. The attempt to involve, Sardinia in a diploma tic dispute last year—by a most unwarrantable stretch of authority over the Tuscan Govern meut—cannot easily be forgotten. The snare was only avoided by the extraordinary forbear ance of the Cabinet of Turin ; and the position in which Sardinia was then placed as the faithful, efficient, and honoured ally of France and Eng land, prevented Austria from pushing the dispute to extremities, which might have prevented her interference on behalf of Russia, and brought the united force of the Western Powers into the field against her. She therefore, for the time, gave up her darling project, and refrained from fur ther aggression on Piedmont. But there is too much reason to fear that the project gas been postponed, bat not abau doned—that she still cherishes her malevolent schemes, and is seeking only a favourable oppor tunity to bring them into practical operation. For what other purpose would she display such c ostly military operations, increasing the ntunbers TO THE EDITOR OF THE D.I.ILY NEWS.

The captain-general of the Basque provinces announces that Cabecilla Gomez and nineteen individuals presented themselves yesterday, and made their submission. No official document appears in the Gazette. It is asserted that dissensions have alread occurred between O'Donnell and Ros de Olano, who, up to this day, has been the new Dictator's right arm. FRANCE. PARIS, TUEADAY EVENING. The Emperor yesterday gave a private audience to Prince Adalbert of Bavaria at the Palace of St. Cloud. The Prince had had the honour of being received by the Empress previously to the return of his Majesty. A Council of Ministers, at which the Emperor presided, was held yesterday morning at St. Cloud. Marshal Vaillant, as locum tenens for the Minis ter of Public Worship, has addressed a circular to the different archbishops and bishops, calling their attention to the fact that the present year has been memorable for the birth of a Prince Imperial at the moment of the signature of a glorious peace, and requesting them to order that a 7'e Deum shall be sung in all the churches of their respective dioceses on the 15th inst., the fete day of the Emperor, as a mark of gratitude to Providence for those bless ings. _ . . . . - The Moniteur contains a decree nominating the Presidents, Vice-Presidents, and Secretaries of the Councils-General of the departments for the session of 185 G. "It appears certain," says a Paris letter in the Emancipation of Brussels, " that it is Count Wa lewski and Marshal Duke Pelissier who are charged with the task of coming to a definite arrangement on the subject of the medals which Turkey is de sirous of conferring on the French troops. It was at first in contemplation to decorate all the soldiers who have taken part in the Crimean campaign. The Emperor did not give his sanction to this idea, and from modification to modification it has at length been decided that the only soldiers who are to receive the Turkish medal are the wounded and the invalided."

THE DANUBE. A letter from Constantinople in the Assemblelc Nationale says :—" The arrival of a French mer chant steamer, the Lyonnais, at Orsova, on the Danube, is announced. A correspondent from that town says that the owner, M. Parrot, having in vain attempted to dispose of the steamer to the Danube Navigation Company, has now the inten tion of offering it for sale to the Servian Govern ment. In the event of his not succeeding, he has the intention, after fulfilling all the sanitary and. customs formalities, of ascending the Danube up to Pesth and Vienna, with the view of studying the course and currents of that river in anticipation of next spring, when, in his opinion, the Danube will be navigated in all its length by French steamers. If it is really the intention of *the Lyonnais to proceed up the Danube beyond Sem lid, she will perhaps receive the same reply as that given to the Bavarian steamers, namely, that the time has not yet come for claiming the application of the stipulations of the Treaty of Paris." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the Bthoontain nothing of much interest, in addition to the telegraphic despatches of that date which have been published. The resignation by General San Miguel of the post of commander of the Halberdiers of the court had at last been definitively accepted, and the Marquis del Duero, or the Duke de Bailen, was spoken of as his successor. M. Espana, secretary of the Embassy at Paris, had resigned and has been replaced by M. Musro. In consequence of the re establishment of tranquillity, recruiting for the free corps had been suspended. It was not true, as had been reported, that two deputies of the Cortes, named Pons and Borao, had been arrested at Saragossa, but M. Abascal, a deputy of democratic opinions, is in custody in that city. It was said that the 500 insur gents who had assembled at Mequinenza h_.d dispersed, and that 400 of them bad made their submission. At Gracia, in Catalonia, a young man named Puig had been condemned to death for having been concerned in the murder of the Queen's officers in that place. A letter, emanating from a semi-official source, says :—The policy of the Government will cer tainly be faithful to the spirit which predominates in the preamble of the decree proclaiming Spain in a state of siege, published in the Gazette on the 14th July last. Such is the veritable programme of the Government. The Cabinet is determined to speak by its acts, but will not make a profession of faith. All the Ministers are animated with the best intentions, and all are honourable men and good patriots. The state of siege of Madrid will soon be raised. According to all probabilities M. Pacheco will go to Loudon as Minister, M. Mar tinez de la Rosa is spoken of for Rome. Two fine screw steamers, built in England for the Government, the Duero and the Tajo, have this day arrived at Vigo. PROSPECTS OP THE VINTAGE IN SPAIN.—EI Contri buyente of the 30th of July (published at Cadiz) says : " The vine disease progresses, unfortunately, beyond all measure, for in the district of the neighbouring cities of Jerez and Port St. Mary, there is scarcely a vineyard free from the devastator " Oidium Tukerii." In Valen cia, although it has shown itself in some of the vines, at present it does not appear so great as in previous years." MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT.--maxonEsTEn, Tues day.—The market is very steady, with a fair business doing ; in a few instances prices are hardening. Cotton keeps quiet ; and it is hoped, with the excellent pros pects fur a supply which the growing crop promises, that no movement is contemplated in the raw material, as in that case it is not unlikely that the position of coarse spinners will point to the system of working short time, which has already been mooted in some quarters. THE MONUMENTS IN WESTMINSTER ABBEY . —At a recent gathering of the members of the London and Middlesex Archreological Society within the walls of Westminster Abbey, for the purpose of examining in detail its beautiful architecture, as well as its rare histo rical collection of monumental effigies, the attention of the members was, among other matters, directed to the erroneous and, in some instances, absurd descriptions given of the monuments and those they are intended to commemorate, by the guides employed ; since which time the counoil of the society has addressed a respectful communication to the Abbey authorities, offering to prepare for the use and information of the cicerones correct descrip ion of the monumental contents of the Abbey, in order that history may no longer be perverted by them to the stranger, nor the ear of the antiquary or the archaeologist scandalised by statements which the first principles of his studies teach him are fabulous. tv 01 5, tt of di 'T
