The Atpellate Jurkidiction Bill has, thanks to the independent raember r i of the House of Commons, been got rid of for the present session, and there is every reason to hope that, when next it makes its appearance, it will be in a greatly improved form—one better suited to the real exigencies of the case and the wants and wishes of the people. The more closely we consider the meter in all its details the more' earnest becomes our opposition to "the miserable • measure," which appears to have been solely framed for the purpoie of grati fying aristocratic • prejudices, and retaining the shadow of a jurisdiction, the substance whereof had long since passed away, if it ever had any real existence. It must be obvious to any im partial observer that the idea of the House of Lords being the Court of ultimate appeal is a palpable mockery and delusion--that it is a sham of the most transparent character, which, in place of adding to the dignity and importance- of the body, materially derogates therefrom. ,'what can be the opinions either of appellant or respondent when he sees a noble " dummy," who se c oin . pulsory attendance is regarded as a bore of no ordinary magnitude, striving to divert his atten tion from the real business of the day, awl not 'even listening to arguments' which !tlr'unlaappy litigant considers of vital imkortance, and on which his future happinew may depend. He thinks of the enormous costs to which he has been subjected in order to obtain that hearing ; and whatever may be the result, a bitterness of feeling is engendered, which cannot easily be got rid of. Such a proceeding is, be yond anything, calculated to bring the majesty of the law into contempt and disrepute, and to ren der every suitor discontented and querulous. It was, indeed, highly ridiculous to suppose that a question of such magnitude could be dis posed of withou khan inquiry and calm deliberation, at the fag end of the session. Their Lordshils have not showan themselves very willing to listen to the oneatum ex necessitate," or to consi der that, because a grievance had been esta blished, a remedy, or quasi remedy, should forthwith be proVided.. They have unsparingly exercised the privilege of rejecting the best devised measures transmitted from the co-ordinate branch of the Legislature, and should not feel surprise or annoyance if they receive "tit' for tat," or that a Commoner Roland be pitted against the Noble Oliver. The matter was one that required mature deliberation and ample discussion, and - if the Lower House had taken it on trust, and given a hasty and reckless sanction, it would have' been guilty of an abdication of its constitutional functions, and proved itself unworthy of the . position which it occupies in the State machine. The wisdom and policTpf a complete separatio n of the judicial and political characters has long been recognised— The rit,:crnified 4W' -venerable Judges of the superior Coiirts Cflquityand Com mon Law have, ' with a single eimeptioui :been ex cluded from the House of Commons, The County Court Judges ha,ve - been subjected to a similar regulation. Tho 'louse of Lorth, however, claims not only a direct exemption from the salutary rule, but acts in direct opposition thereto, and by its clainkrauklers it essential that a Judge of the court of last appeal shall necessarily be politician and a party man. This anomaly should be got rid of at the earliest opportunity. But Ulf bill so fortunately set aside last night would, ii carried, have perpetuated the evil. We want thorough reform of the House of Lords. It ie required no less for the benefit of the great bod 3, of the people than of the privileged " few." Onf of the first points to be regarded in this much required measure will be the complete separation of the legislative and judicial functions. The former will be better discharged by its being completely relieved from any abortive attempt at the latter, and a much better tribunal may easily be consti tuted, that would give entire satisfaction in the exer cise of its arduous and important duties. The atten tion of Parliament should therefore be directed to the construction of a proper Court of Appeal, separate and distinct from the House of Lords, and also to a reform of the Senate, so as to insure; as far as practicable, a greater coincidence with the opinions and wishes of the great body of the people, and to render the chances of collision between the Houses less likely than at present. The question may now be argued coolly. The voice of public opinion will speak audibly, and we earnestly hope that Parliament will follow that opinion when clearly and unequivocally expressed. At Mr. PEABODY'S dinner General CADWAL. LA.DER acknowledged that: the Americans are very sensitive, needlessly so indeed, yet he asked of the Press of this country to do their part towards diffusing and establishing friendly feelings be tween his countrymen and ours. Now, we be lieve that every journalist here is ready to do his part in the work of conciliation. But how shall he do it ? Our American friends must remember that we enjoy a practical liberty of the Press, to to which they are at present in a great measure strangers. We are accustomed in this country to tolerate the advocacy of the most unpopular views ; and, as in the case of the Manchester School during the War, while nearly the whole Press was opposed to them, yet instead -of executing the judgment of Judge LYNCH on their persons and their printing-offices, we rather show respect to the moral courage which dares to differ and to assert publicly the difference. Mr. COBDEN and Mr. BRIGHT Fere at perfect liberty t o d enounce all of us as they pleased. Under similar circum stances had_' What next, and next " been pub li'slled in' America; 'prObablY "thel" next " thing would have been a bonfire of the whole edi tion, and possibly the printer's establishment ; "and next" would have been a notice to the Hon. Gentleman to shift his quarters. We may, then, dissent from all Americans on some of their favourite questions, but we must yet ask them to let us express our views as freely as if we dissented from the views of nine-tenths of the population of our own kingdom. They may, perhaps, hint that we should be more guarded in our language about foreigners than about our own people. There is something in that ; but, on the other hand, they remind us in the same breath that they are bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh—that they inherit our his tory, our traditions, our language, our laws, and our literature ; hence it,is that we do not feel the same restraint in speaking of them as of any other foreign nation. They are, in truth, but h ill' foreigners ; we know that they feel amenable to the same civil and religious obligations as we do. We should, for instance, be careful not to assume that a Frenchman was an advocate of political equality, or liberty, or of religious freedom ; but we understand thoroughly the convictions of Ame ricans on these points ; we know that they are at least as strong as ours. We feel gratified or an noyed by their consistency or inconsistency in re gard to our common social and political principles, and they must therefore bear with us if we discuss their conduct rather as that of a section of our own community than that of pure foreigners. The freedom of our censure, as well as the heartiness of our congratulations, are due to the simple fact of our intimate knowledge of the very conscience of cur near kinsmen. Some of their correspond ents may think we are very ignorant of their parties and movements ; but it is only as we of the metropolis may imperfectly understand, prior to specific inquiry, the sectional politics of Lanca shire or the West Riding of Yorkshire. Americans cannot, therefore, be surprised if on the more important political and social questions amongst them we should both entertain and ex press strong opinions. It is rarely that English men denounce with any severity what is not con demned in much stronger language by some of their own citizens. True, we have often been here on the side of their minority, but then before now that minority has in our time become a majo rify ; so that, like the middle-aged folk who will not vary the cut of their coats, the fashion at last comes round to us. Probably there is no point on which Americans have been more sensitive or Englishmen, and we may say Europeans gene rally, less capable of conceding to their touchi ness, than that of slavery. This odious " domes tic institution," however, has always had a vigo rous band of opponents in the family to which it belongs, and even those who excuse it are un willing to call it by its proper name ; they have been compelled to " plate sin with gold," even in communications from their Pre sident to his own fellow-citizens ; it is inevitable, therefore, that Britons should strip off the plating and call slavery, Slavery ; and slaveholders, slaveholders. We must be allowed to support that party in the States which, as we think, supports those principles of rectitude which must triumph at last ; it was impossible for any Englishcnan not to blush that any of his race could enact under any pretext the infamous Fugi tive Slave Law ; or that he should not feel indig nant to see the Free States of the North succumb. ing to the South in repealing -the Missouri coin promise, or that ,pro-slavery zeal should be a qualification for the presidency ; we feel humbled in the eyes of all .the, civilised world that such things should be done by the Republican half of the Anglo-Saxons. Whether, therefore, the Republican candidate, Colonel FitEmoNr, succeed or not, Americans will perceive that Englishmen will rejoice in what ever amount of success he achieves. English respect for America must rise in proportion to the ascendancy of ennobling principles in her policy, by whatever party name their supporters there are known. The seleotion of Mr. BANKS, as Speaker, was highly gratifying to this country, and could the northern parties so combine as to return Col. FREMONT it would probably obtain the hearty good-will for the Union of the whole Press of this country. General CADWALLADER himself could . _ hardly wish for other than sincere praiies ; lei him induce his countrymen to deserve them, and they shall have them. Comparing the " plat- form " of the Republicans with that of the Cin cinnati Convention, we may ask Americans whether England and Europe can accord respect to the Candidate who praises any " plank " of the latter, compared with what they give the man who takes his stand on the former. We give that of the Republicans and Colonel FREMONT in brief The first resolution declare& the new party in favour of Preserving the Union ; being a reply to their opponents, THE SU 14" 1,.. LONDON, FRIDAY EV3rNINg i jumr 11 . 1E458. "The Republican platform is pretty well. It amounts to little. It may be condensed into three sentences. 1. They want Congress to rule the territories and to ex clude slavery therefrom. 2. They want Kansas to be . free. 3. They want no war. On the other hand, the Cincinnati platform takes a different ground. The Demo crats want-1. Congress not to meddle with the terri tories. 2. Kansas to be slave. 3. War. On these two platforms the first is unquestionably the best Every one can judge of the relative merits of the third proposition in the two platforms. If the interests of this country can be best advanced by a war with France, England, and Spain combined, brought on by a reckless attempt of our Government to seize Cuba, then the Cin cinnati platform is the preferable one ; but if we shall be the greater gainers by peace, industry, commerce, good will, and public enterprise, then the Fremont ticket is the safer of the two." With such statements before us, it is impossible that all who wish well to the Republic should not wish her to be represented amengst the nations by Colonel FREMONT, ,rather than by Mr. BUCHANAN. If party zeal in America will elect a pro-slavery man, who is necessitated by his slavery connexions to adopt. " the highwayman's plea" at a diplomatic conference, to be her Presi dent, nothing can secure to her the same respect as would be spontaneously given for an election more honourable to her domestic and foreign re lations. Another and yet another ! ScArcely have we got over the first horror of the 1,9771. PAULO CAGLIAB,I, when we are agonised by a 1,0501. GIOVANNI BELLINI just as abominable, just as worthless, and just as ridiculous as a grand, vaunted, costly addition to the art treasures stored up in our unfortunate National Gal lery. One after another these expensive daubs are being bundled into that same luckless collection tending rapidly and inevitably to transform it, at length, into the laughing-" stock" of the art critics of Chris ten o _A►ll this, moreover, positively, and distinctly because of the notorious and acknowledged incapacity of Sir CHARLES LOOK EASTLAKE as . the Director of the Gallery, thus simultaneously disfigured and dete riorated. Since this luckless Gallery has been under his Direction, what execrable rubbish has been admitted, to be sure, into an assemblage of pictures until then for the most part fastidiously and cautiously se lected ! A fraudulent TITIAN, a vamped-up 3/lANTEGNA, a spurious HOLBEIN, a highly-stippled BOTTICELLI, the big, flaring VERONESE, cobbled and patched into something like uniform ugliness by the veneering brush of one Tagliapietra, and now, " last, but not least" in atrocity, this astoundingly hideous GIOVANNI BEL LINI : as the ever-ruthless "M. M." of 27, Soho-square, saith of it, in so many words, " a besmeared, dull-purple, rotten-look ing daub r' As it is, to the very letter, and that letter aT. Why, the whole spectacle recently witnessed in the neighbourhood of Trafal gar-square has been, for all the world, like a travestie of a famous scene in Macbeth—but very slightly altered.

Examining now the CAGLIIRI, price 1,9771. sterling; and now the BELLINI, price 1, 05 OZ. sterling, and afterwards pronouncing, whether or no, the above is in any way exaggerated. What, though the general effect may appear to be in a very ludicrous degree extra vagant. Really, after all the murders that have been committed in cold blood (and with very high fees paid over to the hireling assassins) —really, we say, after all the various mur- ders that have been deliberately committed in cold blood upon such great masters as HOLSEIN and VERONESE, and GIOVANNI BELLINI and AN DREA MANTEL A, and the like, we don't at all wonder at the solioitude evinced by some people to fly from the scene of these atrc- cities, and to rid the Gallery, if possible, of such really painful associations. It should be remembered by those iindividuals, however, that it is not the building that must infallibly be haunted under the circumstances so much as the actual collection itself, ,5;o long as that collection amprises within it surch raw-head-and-bloody- bones of the ancient masters as have been care fully selected by Sir CIKARLES EASTLAKE and his assistants, at very considerable expense, from among the ghoul-like, lumber of the picture-dealing vampires of the CorAinent.

The se ..!ond denies the "authority of Congress or a'terrttorial Legislature to give legal assistance to slavery in-any ter: ritory of the United States." The word " territory," in ~ his connection, signifies a political organisation (made under act of Congress) in a new country in which there 's not sufficient population to form a State. The third •esolution affirms the power of Congress to prohibit lavery and polygamy within the territories. It is un aectrisary to say that this is aimed as well against Brig ham Young as against the extension of slavery. The ourth and fifth relate to Kansas, and takes anti-slavery grounds. The sixth we give at length : " That the highwayman's plea that might makes right,' embodied in the Ostend circular, was in every re spect unworthy of American diplomacy, and would bring shame and dishonour upon any Government of people that gave it their sanction.'" The New York Herald again writes as fol lows : LATEST NE WS% ST.

No judicial proceed ings oan be instituted against them. They will have merely to take an oath of fidelity to the sovereign, and their rights will be restored to them. They will be considered oapable of exer cising government employments after three years' good conduct. MADRID, JULY 9. The return of M. Escosura, Minister of the Interior, who is now at Valladolid, is postponed to the end of the week. Several workmen have been arrested here. The cholera is not spreading beyond Seville. FRANCE. PARIS, THURSDAY. The Emperor made an excursion on Tuesday to Luxeuil (says a letter from Plombieres). The Empress honoured.the Theatre Francais with her presence last evening. The pieces performed were " Une Chaine" and "La Diplomatic du Marine." It appears decided that there will not be a double fete, as was at first contemplated, for the return of the army of of the East and for the St. Napoleon. These two solemnities will be celebrated at the same time, on Aug. 15 ; but the fete will be of a particularly military character, and especially dedi cated to the victorious troops who are returning home, and to their general-in-chief. The Dachess of Orleans has remitted from her self and the princes' her sons the sum of 15,000 f. for the sufferers by the inundations. The first section of the railway from Paris to Alulhausen, lying between Paris and Nogent sur- Marne, has just been opened to the public.

NO, . the slight' external pressure 'which is ".n 431 F felt Is removed nothing will be changed. A. person who is in a position to form a correct opinion on the subject tells me, that little more is to be expected from the Papal Government than that it will exert itself to protect the lives and pro perty of its subjects. Prince Adalbert of Bavaria will leave for Madrid on or about the 20th of this month, as his marriage is to take place at the beginning of August. The Frankfort Post Zeitung learns ',rom Vienna that Prince Gortschakoff fully agreed with Count Bull, ;that tht , Datiubian Principalities "ought not to be united ;" but you may be assured that such was ;not the case. A well-known English firm is likely to undertake to construct the Vienna-Linz-Salsburg Railroad. A treAy of commerce has been concluded for 15 years between Tuscany and Greece. ITALY. ' On the arrival of Lord Normanby at Parma, be immediately repaired to the Royal Villa of Sala, to pay his respects to the Regent. He is accompanied by Lady Normanby, and a communication from Florence states that they left that town in great h .ste and very unexpectedly. It is to be hoped that this tardy visit of his lordship, after the capi tal has been three months and a-half in a state of siege, and which seems'even now to have been only undertaken by express order from home, may not be too late to be useful. A letter from Parma of the 2d, in the Risor gimeuto of Turin, says • "We are told that Marshal Radetzky has officially informed the Duchess Regent that, from strategical motives, he intendslO increase our garrison to 3,000 men, to be quartered partly in the city and partly in the environs. Placentia has received an increwe of 500 chasseurs of the Imperial regiment ; the cita del having been demolished, the Austrians have constructed three forts around, armed with guns ; they are called SG. Lazarus, Pudista, and St. An thony. The Marshal wants to increase the Aus trian army in Italy to 120,000 men ; the Po is to be furnished with military bridges at several points, and considerable bodies of troops are to be stationed along that river and the coasts of the Romagna." LITERATURE. Reelations of Prison LVe. By George Laval Chesterton. Hurst and B!ackett. A deeply interesting record of prison experience, by_a_ well-known prison reformer, to wit, the ex- Governor of Cold Bath Fields Prison. Numerous characters are introduced, the incidents of whoSe 1 various careers are of a striking, some of -them of I an appalling, nature, and the anxieties.peculiar to the then position of the writer, are shown to be such as to have called for no little support and sympathy. While of a character to attract the unreflecting, and such as look' merely for excite ment, these volumes possess claims on the atten tion of prison reformers. The writer undertakes an inquiry into prison discipline and secondary punishments, his object being to unmask the falla cies of one over-lauded system (the separate), and to caution the public from any exaggerated expec tation from any other. Altogether the work is one deserving of general perusal, and well calcu lated by its exposition of bygone evils, and the suggestions it contains for the future, to do good service. Differences of opinion will always exist on some matters, and, not least, such as seri ously involve the welfare of society ; but it would be impossible for a thoughtful individual to read this work without more or less profit. As a narra tive of individual achievement in the teeth of powerful obstacles it possesses considerable value. Letters on Military Education By Jacob Omnium. Bradbury and Evans. These letters on the subject of Army Reform made their first appearance in the Columns of the Times, and excited as they successively appeared a good deal of attention, and not a little contro versy. In their present form the public will be better enabled to do justice to the views of the author than they possibly could through the medium of a daily journal, however popular and extensively read, and we must say the letters are deserving of the most thoughtful perusal and con sideration. One point is put with much force— the danger under the existing system of favouritism and incompetency of nominating a successor to Lord Hardinge—a strong presumption existing that such successor would either be a Prince of the Blood, or a Peninsular Field-Marshal, in which case, if incompetent, the nation would have to endure (possibly) many alone year of military mis government before a P r i me Mi n i s t er cou ld be found resolute enough to disgrace by dismissal either of them. Another proof of the necessity of Parlia mentary Reform, which, in our humble opinion, must precede every other of a really thorough and effective nature ! When will our public writers come to see this ? Healthy Respiration. By Stephen H. Ward, M.D., London. John Van Voorst, Paternoster row. A series of lectures delivered last winter i❑ Lon don on a subject of the last importance to the wel fare of the community, since, on a proper appre hension of it, the progress of sanitary improvement largely depends. Mr. Ward possesses those im portant qualifications of a good lecturer, a lucid style, brevity, and force, and knowing whereof be speaks is enabled to fix the attention and fasten his remarks on• the memory of his hearers or readers. Altogether the work is one which com mands our approval, and if everything met with its desert would be sure to command also an extensive sale. •It is very portable, we may add, as well as calculated to be useful. The Sabbath, Question. By Henry Fulton. Dublin M‘Glashan and Co. An interesting brochure, in which the Sabbath question,is considered scripturally, without refer ence to its social, political, or sanitary character. The writer seeks only for the teaching of Scripture, and the result of his research is a noticeable ex poaure of_ the fallacies which Sabbatarian divines have pretended to draw from it. Whether the writer be a member of the Society of Friends or not we do not know ; but his views, we fancy, pretty closely resemble those entertained by that body of religionists. The work has reached a second edition, and is deerving of circulation. AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 10. "By the United States' mail steam-ship Arago, Captain Lines, with the French and English mails, which arrived off Cowes this morning, en route to Havre, we have dates from New York to the 28th ultimo. The Arago brings 230 passengers, of whom 26 are for England ; $550,000 in specie for Havre, $150,000 for London, and 1,500 barrels of flour. The intelligence from England was looked for ward to with great interest. In reference to the feeling with regard to 'the difficulties between Eng land and America conveyed in the intelligence re ceived by the Asia, the New York Herald says : When the last mail arrived we stated that the im broglio might be considered as terminated. We now reiterate that conviction with a better knowledge of the facts. The question is now narrowed down into one of Mr. Crampton's guilt or innocence. That is the proper around for it to occupy. If Mr. Crampton was inno cent he was wrongly dismissed, and it would serve this country right not only to see its Minister disinis , ed, but to lose character and prestige throughout Europe, fir the only excuse fir the high-handed measure then would be that" Mr. Pierce was courting popularity for electoral purposes, and no one in this country would object to see a President well punished for thus proving false to his station. But if, on the -ther band, Mr. Crampton was guilty—and we are bound to say that, for our part, we have not the' smallest doubt but he wai;--then it will devolve on the — British Government not to carp at this Aiministration for dismissing him, but to render to Mr. Pierce hearty thanks for having taken a-measure which justice called for, and the interests and friendship of the two nations required. Indeed, from the moment that the question is placed on this—the only rational—basis, it ceases to he dangerous or i rritating. It assumes a shape in which reason can grasp it without any enormous effort ; it does not necessarily provoke outbursts of national prejudice or passion. Did Mr. Crampton commit the acts charged or did he not ? That is the whole poifit now ; and we can assure our British neighbours that if they Can show, in a straightforward, sensible way, that the charges brought against the British Minister were unfounded, and the acts whereof h'e stands accused not actually committed by him, they will obtain the hearty sympathy of every American citizen, and every respectable jour nal, in denouncing, in the - strongest terms, the conduct of the President and his advisers. But until that is shown we must be allowed to consider the argument against Crampton to he conclusive." The forthcoming Presidential election was causing great excitement, and it was said there, had not been so much enthusiasm manifested throughout the North and West at the nomination of a candi date for the Presidency since the Harrison cam paign of 1840 a there was in bringing forward -001_ Fremont, the Great Kooky . Afonntain path finder. Large meetings had been held, processions formed, and guns fired.. The struggle was expected to be most exciting. From the confident tone, however, of the democratic journals, the election Of Mr. Buchanan appeared certain. The Illinois, with San Francisco dates of the 5 - th ult., had arrived at New York. The news is im portant. The murderers Casey and Cora were hung on the 221 of May, the day of the burial' ot tilr. ding. _ The United States steam-frigate Susquehanna, Commander Joshua R. Sands, arrived at New York on tho 27th, ult. from Aspinwall and San Juan, carrying the broad pennant of Commodore EL raulding. The Susquehanna left San Juan on ~he 10th. Nothing very definite was learned of the movements of General Walker, who was at Leon, Awaiting the result of the election of a Presideni, hen pending. The army of Costa Rica had disappeared. Carrera, President of Guatemala, ►ad raised an army of 3,000 men to act iaainst Walker, and left his capital with he full determination of giving him battle; ;Jut before he had reached the borders of lig State his ranks were reduced by de ;ertion and death to 500 men, when he deemed ii ,he wisest policy to march back again. .Hondurat , 'refused to allow the Guatemala army to pass !irough.ler territory.

DEAL, Friday, 9.48 a.m. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. MADLLE. PICCOLONIINI'S BENEFIT. This young lady may well be proud and happy. She has fairly won the hearts of her au , ience. There could he no ini4ake as to the warmth of sentiment displayeg; last night, when, on the conclusion of her thrilling an , marvellous performance, the whole house rose to do her honour. Ladies were waving ban )kerchiefs ; men were cheering; every one that had a bouquet cast it on the :stage, till the faVourite was well nigh hidden by the mass of flowers she attempted to carry. Again and Hein was she callert for, and in the thunders of applcaugu atm in the ringing cheer 4 there was a volume, a warmth. a love, in one word, such as we have never before seen evinced within the walls of a theatre. M4clemoise'le Piccolomini was evidently deeply grafi amd ttuched. Shp curt led her thalks with spa , k ling eyes and grateful smiles, that told bo v tensible sh* felt. that she was treated as an "enfant cherie"---,, darling. The actress and the audience, for once, ap preciated Each other, and reciprocated feelings as deep as genuine. Ti) opera was followed by the new ball&t of the "Corsaire," which " went," as the phrase is, better tl'an the first night of its produCtion. Rosati was admirable. She bounded, sparkled, enchanted. " Her steps are of light, awl her home is the air, And she only par complaisance touches the ground. ' The scenery, costumes, dancing, acting, all combined , n their excellence to produce great entertainment and great applause. ADELPIII THEATRE. Last night a burlesque of Legrave's tragedy of "Medea" was produced here ; and when we state tha. Wright sustained the character. of Medea, and Paul Bedford that of G'ance, sorbs idea of the humour of he piece may be inferred. . The tragedy is 'travestied with much whimsical ingenuity, and Wright's minrcrie , .1 the inimitable Ristori vviis • highly comic, and carrie he burlesque to a successful termination. Miss M. K , ,eley and Miss Wyndham enacted the parts of Orpheus ind Jason. The scenery of the Lyceum has been exactly lopied, and the other appointments of the buresque were excellent. The burlesque was followed by the per .rmancea of Mr. and Mrs. Williams, the American ‘3 , medians. Such has been the success of these talented artistes that the production of a novelty, of which report peaks highly, has been for the present pustpoaed. The liouse was crowded to excess. Prince Oscar of Sweden, attended by Lieut.-0 •lone Cavendish, visited Mr. Burford's Panorama of Sebasto pal yesterday. His Rtiyal Highness also viited th, German Gallery, in New Bond—treet, to inspect Mr ilarker's picture of the Allied Generals before Sebasto poi.

The person most ilk ely to be selected for the mission is Mehemet Pacha (K' who fulfilled the functions of caimacan during Aali Pasha absence. Another scandalous affair which proves tow in Turkey the Turks are not the most intolerant ha.. just occurred at Harpout, in Asia Minor. The child ci an Armenian family, some time since converted to Pro testantism, lately died, and its parents had-it buried ie the Armenian cemetery,-the only one for Christians a. Harpout. As soon as the lirmenien bishop was informai of the fact, he proceeded to the cemetery at the hea.: of the inhabitants belonging to his communion, and had the body dug up and thrown into a neighbour ing field, there to be devoured by dogs. The go vernor being apprised of what was done, Pent guards to protect the body while he made the mo t energetic remonstrances to the bishop. As the prelst-- would not yield, the body was reinterred by the autho rities. The Porte has addressed a note to the Armenian patriarch on the subject, demanding the dismissal of the bishop, and has sent orders to the goveraor of Harpout to give the Protestants a piece of ground for a cemetery for themselves."

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.) BO W STREET. UTTERING A FORGED NOTE.—This morning a re spectably attired mac, named William. Sumner:, was placed at the bai, before Mr. Henry, oo remand, charged with uttering a forged 51 Bank of England note. From the evidence of Mr. Al!cock, the landlord of the Sorei - eign public-house, Upper St. Martin'sdaue, it ap oearsd that a few days ago the prisoner entered his house and, having partaken of some brandy and soda water, tendered the note in question to the bar maid in payment. She, not having sufficient cash to change the note, called to him in the cellar, telling him change for a 51. note was required. On arriving at the bar he received the note, and from its appearance he felt satisfied it was a forgery. Re took the note up stairs for the purpose of comparing it with a genuine one, and further to test it, he applied some water to the mark in both notes. The effect was on the genuine one the watermark became more visible, :lilt on the spurious one it completely obliterated it. To make assurance doubly sure, he sent the note to a neighbour, by whom 'it, was returned as a very bad one. The answers to the questi,na he put tr, the prisoner not being at all satisfactory, he gave him into custody. The prisoner protested his innocence, and said he did not know the tote was a spurious one. -Mr. Henry said that might be so, but it was a very suspici,)us circumstance that when the prisoner was asked to write his name and address on the note he wrote a fictitious one. The accounts, too, as to how the note came int, his possession were far from satisfactory. Tne prisoner again protested his innocence; and said the note now produced was not the note he gave to the barmaid ; his good note had been exchanged for the pre sent forged one. He certainly took the pen in his hand to write his name, but he did not do so. The magistrate reminded the ; prisoner of the statement ne had made to the barmaid. He distinctly told her he ;ad written his name on the note. However, as the prisoner said he was a respectable man , and innocent of time present charge, he would give him every facility for proving it. He should therefore remand the case till Tuesday next.
