Barlow, a gentleman from the neighbourhood of Manchester, and, in the course of conversation with him Lord Yarborough in quired what institution was it existence for the relief of unfortunate artists, or those who were incapacitated by infirmity. Being informed that the Artists' Benevolent Fund was an establishment with that object, Lord Yar borough soon afterwards employed Mr. Barlow to en grave the other painting by Turner, "The opening of the Vintage at IVLla.non," and presented the plates of both ptctures for the exclusive benefit of the institution above named. The engraving of these two plates involved at, expenditure by his lordAnp of upwards of 3,0001.

SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 15, 1856. METROPOLITAN BOA IW OF WORKS. A meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was held iu the Court of Queen's Bench, Guildhall, yesterday; Mr. J. Thwaites in the chair. NEW STREET-SOUTHWARK. The Clerk (Mr. Woolrych) read the following letter from the Chief Commissioner of the Board of Works : " " ()Ince of Work s , & c ., N ov. 12 . Sir,—l am directed by the First Commissioner of her Majesty's Works, &c., to return to you herewith, approved by him, the plan submitted to him on the 10th inst. by a deputation from the Metropolitan Board of Works, for a new line of street between High-street, Southwark, and Stamford-street, Blackfriars, and to request that you will be so good as to move the Board to furnish the First Com missioner with a copy of that plan, to be retained in this office. "The First Commissioner, however, feels it to be his duty to state that he bad received some deputations, and had seen several persons on this subject, and that, although they expressed various views as to the line of street and some of the features of the scheme, they almost all agreed that it wou ld b e very desirable to remove the bloc of buildings situated between High-street and Counter -street. The First Commissioner pointed out that these buildings were coloured for insertion in the schedule, and that the Metropolitan Board would therefore have full power to render the improvement still more complete if they should find it necessary or expedient to do so.--I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " ALFRED AUSTIN, Secretary." MAIN DRAINAGE OF THE METROPOLIS. Mr. CARPOIAEL rose to call the attention of the Board to the letter which had been received from the First Commis sioner of her Majesty's Works, in which he stated that the plan submitted to him as regarded the outfall of the sewage of the metropolis was at variance with the intentions of the Legislature and contrary to the spirit of the statute, and that he was therefore bound to return it, withholding his approval. Sir B. Hall, in the last p arag raph o f hi s l e tt er, hadenvited a deputation from that board to troffer with hieripon the subje c t of th e d ra i nage of the metropolis, and he (Hr. Carpmael) thought the board might, by having an interview with that gentleman, come to a better under standing on a matter in which both the board and the First CoMmissioner were equally interested He was of opinion that a deputation should meet Sir B. Hall and confer to gether upon all the plans. Ho trusted t het on the present occasion gentlemen would reeerain their feelings. Let there be a conference by which the views of the board on the subject of the drainage of the metropolis might be made known to the First Commissioner, and his views thereon be made known to them. Without intending to Moen ton his own opinion, still he wished to deal with the subject in a practical manner. It was said that generally the great affairs of the world were carried on in the spirit of comp°. tele°. He believed it was so, and he was willing to act upon that principle on the present occasion ; and if the board supported him in that course he had no doubt they would arrive at a satisfactory result. He therefore begged to move " That the Chief Commissioner of her Majesty's Works having suggested the propriety of a conference between himself and a deputation of this board, be it resolved that the chairman and the following members [l2 or 14 as may be agreed upon], accompanied by the engineer and clerk, be a deputation to confer with the Chief Commissioner on the various plans for intercepting the sewage of the metro polis." Mr. DENNIS seconded tho motion. He thought the least said at that time the better ; he should therefore refrain from stating his views on the subject. Mr. TURNER was not opposed in principle to the appoint ment of a deputation, but he thought it of great importance that in going to the First Commissioner it should be thoroughly understood between the board and the Com missioner what were their objects and what were the sub jects to be discussed. If he understood the letter of Sir B. Hall aright, what he proposed was, not that the board should have a free conference with him on all the plans, including plan D,' but, that excluding plan B, they should have a conference with him on the other plans. That Was a position in which the Board ought not to be placed. They ought to confer on plan B as well as on other plans. The CHAIRMAN—As I understood it, the whole question will be open for discussion with the Chief Commissioner. Mr.TURNER wished it to be so expressed in the resolution. The Chief Commissioner objected to plan B, saying that it did not satisfy th e requ i remen t s o f th e ac t ; "but," said ke, "you tell me there are other plans, to which I can say neither aye nor nay until I have seen them; if you have such other plans I am willing to see you on the subject"— thus excluding from his own mind plan B. Now, he was of opinion that the Board should tell the First Commissioner that they adhered to plan B, bat that he having opposed it they were willing to have a conference with him on the whole subject. Let this course be taken, and no misunder • standing could then arise. Mr. BitieToW thought the object of the conference de., sired by th e Fi rs t C omm i ssioner was to remove all obstacles in the way of any plan that might be approved of ; and that the Board was left entirely free, except in so far as they were bound equally with the First Commissioner by the provisions of the act of Parliament. Mr. WILKINSON pointed to the last paragraph of the letter, in wbich it was expressly said that if the Board should de s i re t o see the First Commissioner pieviously to the consideration of any plans (not any other plan) he would be happy to receive a depat aion. Their conference with him, therefore, would be unembarrassed by any pre vious decision whatever. r. D'IFFANGER was anxious that those who were in the min M ority when plan B was adopted by th e majority of the Board should be fairly represented in the deputation. The whole Board, if they thought proper, ought to be at liberty to attend. Mr. H.L. TAYLOR said it appeared to him that the Board were about to abandon that independent character it was their duty to maintain, and which was one of the chief ele ments of the principle of self-government. They had been discussing the question of the main drainage of London for many months past, and had at last come to a resolu tion to adopt a plan which the great majority of the Board believed complied with the act of Parliament. The Minis ter, however, rejected it, and immediately every member appeared eager to wait ou that Minister in order to allay any angry feeling in his mind. (Oh, oh.) The most inde pendent course would be for the Board to stand by that which they had agreed to, and not be influenced by the opinion of one individual merely. It appeared to hini that they were taking a course most d erogatory t o th e i nterest not only of th a t Board, but of the public at large. It might be thought by some simple-minded men that they were going to Sir B. Hall to discuss with him on the scheme 8, which hail been adopted by them, but the e never was a greater mistake. In his letter the First Commissioner ob served, " It appears that at every time up to the Gth Oct. last, when plan B was before the Board, it was set aside," and he added these words The First Commissioner agrees with the Board in the several decisions arrived at, which lie considers to have been quite correct. In those two lines he had stated his views upon the very plan which the Board ought to set their heart and mind upon. He defied the Minister to maintain the veto which he had so incautiously and inconsiderately placed upon a plan than which no bettor plan could tee suggested with the ad dendum that was placed against it—viz , that if the plan were to be carriee further down the river the Board had no objection, provided the funds for defraying the ex tpiel e n r s e e fo w re er a e d v f i u se rn t i h s e h e ß d oa b r y d t t h o e ai G ho o l v e er t n o m t e h n e t i . r would ile plan, and let Sir B. Hall, if he pleased, confer with Lord Palmerston, who, as Prime Minister, had the power to say that tie amount required for conveying the sewage further down the liver should be forthcoming. He, as a member of the Board, f e lt hi mse lf d egra d e d b y the course proposed to be pursued,—that of placing themselves on their knees before a Minister of the Crown, and offering to become his creatures. (Oh, oh.) Was it a course becoming an independent body of men to pursue? Every plan having hitherto been rejected, the only alterna tive left to the Board appeared to be that of resolving to take the sewage down to Sea Reach, with a proviso that the money should be furnished by the Government. This appeared to him to be the only way left by whioh they could maintain their own views, and at the same time coreply with the wishes of the Minister. Mr. bonurorr said it was not correct to state that a de mthe:Bboearred-rt.eoeefoonllteinwuetd, will if they putation waiting on the Chief Commissioner c.eild not d ialetdawohdereetloaton.bpne l Y tahn p ei3 r ( a i c e. ;i tu e ra a 4 l eil i .i . j e oi s in u lt.

Hall's letter. e invitation con- Mr. CRELLIN said it was well known that his the disposal of the sewage was that it should notopinion as to river at all. He knew not what the views of Sir, into the that subject might be, inasmuch as the matter had bit Ball on been fairly pl ace d b efore him. An opportunity 00,shot yet t o afforded to the First Commissioner to form an opinTo that important p o i nt. n upo n Mr. Few thought the mo a t natural course they e eu l dn was to send a deput a ti on to the Chief The Commissioner, letter of Sir B. H a ll made no allusion whatever to the 0 . sec, of the Board to carry the sewage further down the river, pro vided Government w ou ld pay for it. That part of theiilc solution was left unanswered, and instead of answering it Sir It was their duty, Ben.jamin invited them to a conference. therefore, to accept the invitation. Mr. Theocoo asked how they would begin their letter to Sir Benjamin Hall, supposing they agreed :to a conference ? Would they say " The Board having had this matter before them, they desired to see the First Comnissioner ? "Why, they did not desire any such thing. (Hem-, hear.) They bad adopted a plan for the drainage of London which they be lieved to be the very best that could be devised, and they intended to adhere to it. ( d ear, hear.) He believed Sir B. Hall would decline all discussion on plan B, and would ask the deputation whether they had any other pl in to propose. He hoped, in that case, the answer of the deputation would be, " No, unless you intimate to us that the cost shall be paid by the Government." • Mr. LESLIE objected to the resolution, because it did not comply with the terms of Sir B. Hall's invitation. All the plans, A, B, C, and D, had been rejected, the two former by the First Commissioner, and the two latter by that board itself. They were therefore not prepared with any plan to lay before the Commissioner. Mr. Deputy HARRISON, in supporting the motion that a deputation be sent to Sir B. Hall, took the opportunity of pointing out the course he thought it likely the deputation woul take in reference to plan B. The &lief Commissioner had rejected that plan because, in his opinion, the outfall was at variance with the intentions of the, Legislature. In this instance ther6fore he had given a reason ,for the rejection of the plan. Again, he said that it was contrary to the spirit of the statute. That was a second reason. Now, when he should come to talk with Sir B. Hill on the subject —he would not do it disrespectfully, but he should do it firmly—he would. tell Sir Benjamin that the words ,of the act of Parliament were equally binding on him and on the board, and that it was not for him to be the interpreter of We intentions,of the Legislature, nor was it for him to say that the plan was contrary to the spirit of the act, He (Mr. Deputy Harrison), on the contrary. maintained that the p'an B was within the provisions of the act. He repre sented upwards of 1,00'1,000/, sterling of rateable value, and he had to consider whether he was justified in con. senting to an outlay beyond what was for the benefit of those who were the owners of that property. The aet only gave. the Board power to execute works fog, kbe benefit of the metropeliton .distriets. He thought they might safely have an interview with - Sir B.' Hall without compromising themselves in any way, and it was poseible they might con vince him that they Were right in the conclusion at which they had arrived. The difficulty in which the Board was placed arose from the 135th clause, by the introduction of the Words "iu or near the metropolis." If those words could be erased there would be no difficulty at all. He should rejoice to see the noble work which had been intrusted to them completely executed, but nothing should induce him to consent to do anything beyond what they were empowered to do by act of Parliament. Mr. HAWKES did not think there was any difficulty in under standing the act. It was perfectly clear that, in saying the sewage was not to fall " in or near the metropolis," it could not be meant that you should merely take it one mile off in a tidal river. He thought that to be the most valuable por. tion jot' the act, and he trusted Sir B. Hall would not discuss that'question with the deputation. The whole money that might be expended would be thr own away if the sewage were only. to be taken that insignificant distance beyond the limits of the metropolis. Mr. NICEIOLAY said, as it was admitted they were in a diffi culty, it was a matter of policy and expediency that they should go before the Chief Commissioner to remove that diffi culty ; but he believed the Chief Commissioner was in as great a difficulty as themselves. If, therefore, it were found that' they could not properly fulfil their duty, they ought to ask Parliament for enlarged powers to enable them to accom plish the work set before them. Mr. CARPMAEL, in reply, said that what he proposed was, that the deputation should meet Sir B. Hall and discuss with him !the various plans of intercepting sewage which had been befe the Board. There were only plans A, B, C, and D. These, therefore, constituted the whole pith of the question. He thought his friend Mr. Taylor bad fallen into a mistake in callibg the Board an independent Board. They were acting in cdneert with another Board—namely, her Majesty's Board of Works. The Metropolitan Board had the power of origi natifig plans—her Majesty's Board of Works had not that powbr, but it had the powerto veto the acts of the Metropolitan Coaid. Therefore, whenever a difference arose between these two boards, he could not conceive a better course to pursue than that they should have a conference together. It was folbwing a very high example, for it was the practice of the two Houses of Parliament when they differed on some par ticular provisions of a measure, which they were otherwise desirous of carrying, to have a conference, and so Adjust the matter. The motion was then put agreed and to. A discussion then ensued as to the number of members that# should constitute the deputation. Various itiembers werb proposed and rejected; but finally it was agreed, by a dirthion of 25 for, and 13 against, that the deputation should consist of the chairman, 12 members of the board, the en gineer, and clerk. Almost every member who spoke on this point availed hiOself of the opportunity of rearguing the propriety of ap poiating any deputation at all. Mr. H. L. TAUT?, said that every member who represented a lai•ge constituency ought to be present at the interview, and observed that if Sir B. Hall had adopted the course which Lold Seymour would have done, and had, before ignoring their plans, had' a conference with the board, all the diffi culty that had occurred might have been avoided. It was well to havo a giant's strength, but it was tyranny to use it like a giant. Mr. D'INTANGER expressed his gratification at the tone of respect which bad been observed by almost all the speakers., tontards Sir B. Hall on the present occasion. Ho did not aprehend that any inconvenience would arise from a full attendanceo cr owd in gmembersanyfollowing theconference.wereboard then proceeded to n om i nate th e d e p u tation, Howe, Major 14) on , Captain B a • inett, Mr. B r i s t ow, Mr. S ee l ey, M r.

Mr. LESLIE took R occasion to remark that the size of the reservoirs as originally proposed by the engineer had been altbred since the plan had been decided upon by the board. It was first agreed that the reservo i r on the north side of the metropolis should be 3 i acres, and the reservoir on the south side 15 acres. These had been greatly reduced in their di mensions, and he wished to have some explanation from the engineer on the subject. Mr. BazAtosTrE said there was no ground for the state ment made by the hon. member, and then read from his re port the following passage : " 1 recommend that for 11 months in the year the dis• charge of the sewage into the river should take place at high water, and during the first half of the ebb tide ; and that for the remaining 20 or 30 days of heavy rain the discharge of the then diluted sewage should also take place one or two hours before high water, by which means a reduction of the size of the covered reservoir from 15 to 4 acres might be effected, and an increase of it obtained, so that it would contain about 2,500,000 cubic feet. In other words, it would not more than half full during nine mouths in the year, and would leave the other half of the reservoir free for the storage of up wards of a million cubic feet of rain during the remaining three months. This will be found sufficient, probably, for the next 15 or 29 years, and it would be better hereafter, if necessary, to enlarge the reservoir rather than new to spread its contents over a more extended surface. " The foregoing instructions, however, direct -the pre paration of a plan for the discharge of the sewage at and after high-water only. I therefore beg to report, so sudden and unequal are the quantities of rain that fall, that, to avoid the discharge of the sewage before high-water .on the 20 or 30 days per annum, would necessitate the construction of a reservoir of double the size now proposed, at au increased estimated cost of about 40,0001." MR. M`CLEAN'S PLAN. By Mr. M'Clean's plan it is proposed to take the sewage from the West Ham station, in Essex, through the river Crouch into the German Ocean. Sir S. M. Peto is an advo cate of this mode of disposing of the sewage, and the follow inc, letter from that gentleman, a dd ressed to Mr. Th wa it es, the chairman, on the subject, was read by the clerk : "My dear Sir,—l wrote you some time since on Mr. M'Clean's plan, and so strongly am I impressed that it is the right thing to do, that, with the h ope th at t h e Chi e f Commis sioner, yourself, and your colleagues, will yet adopt it, I Lave, with my friends, directed Mr. Day, of 43, Parliament street, to give the Parliamentary notices, so that if you should approve we may be in time for this next session. " I should be prepared to execute it for a fixed sum, and if you will pay 4 per cent, on it, and let' us have the manure from the sewage, I will guarantee its being carried out. " I believe you will find it the best plan in every point of view, and leave the purification of the Teams not a matter of doubt, but of certainty. " I am, my dear Sir, truly and faithfully yours, " New Lowestoft, Nov. 8." " S. MORTON PETO. After the disposal of some routine business the Board adjourned.

(From the Scotsman.) Last night (Tuesday) Mr. Thackeray delivered the third lecture iu the Music-hall to a crowded audience. The reign of the Third George was his subject, and he introduced it by observing that, in the long period of sixty years over which this reign extended, "England had to undergo the revolt of the American colonies; to submit to defeat; tc shake under the volcano of the French Revolution ; to grapple and fight for the life with her gigantic enemy N .- poleon ; to gasp and rally after that tremendous struggle ; the old society, with its courtly splendours, had to pass away ; generations of statesmen to rise and disappear ; Pitt to follow Chatham to the tomb ; the memory of Rodney and Wolfe to be succeeded by Nelson and Wellington's glory ; the old poets who unite us to Queen Anne's time to sink into their graves ; Johnson to die, and Scott and Byron to arise ; Garrick to delight the world with his dazzling dramatic genius, and Kean to leap on the stage and take possession of the astonished theatre. Steam had to be invented; kings to be beheaded, deposed, re stored; Napoleon to be but an episode; and George 111. is to be alive through all these varied changes, to accompany his people through those revolutions of thought, govern• ment, society, and survive out of the old world into ours. When I first saw England she was in mourning for the young Princess Charlotte—the hope of the empire. I came from India as a child, and our ship touched at an island on the way home, where my black servant took me a walk over rocks and hills till we passed a garden where we saw a man walking. That is he, said the black man, that is Bonaparte; he eats three sheep every day, and all the children on whom ha can lay hands. There were people in the British dominions besides that poor black Who had an equal-terror and horror of the Corsican ogre. It is from the correspondence addressed to George Sel wyn that the fullest and most intimate acquaintance with the manners of the time of the Third George is to be de rived. Selwyn was a fine gentleman and a wit ; but there must have been something really attractive about him that made him the correspondent and confidant of so many men of such apposite characters. His letters had not the affectation of Walpole's, and were not so terrible in their revelations as Harvey's Memoirs ; they were more natural than " Horace's dandified treble or Sporus's ma lignant whisper." The " fine gentleman" who was unceas ingly represented in them, with more than a hundred of whom we might still make acquaintance through George Selwyn, is almost vanished off the face of the earth. We have not now children who stand in reverential awe of their parents, and go down on their knees to beg their blessing; servants who are saying "your honour" and " your worship" at every word ; or chaplains who say grace, and retire with the pudding. We cannot now fancy Mr. Pitt's Under Secretary not daring to stand in the presence of his superior, or the same Mr. Pitt, as Earl of Chatham, kneeling before the King while transacting bu siness with him, and bursting into tears because his Majesty deigned to be kind. Fancy Lord John Russell or Lord Pal merston on their knees while their sovereign is reading a despatch, or beginning to cry because Prince Albert has said something civil. These letters make us see Charles Fox cursing over the cards, Lord March calling the odds at Newmarket, Burgoyne gaily tripping off from St. James's to conquer America, and sneaking back somewhat abashed without having accomplished that business, the Prince of Wales stepping into a club and hurriedly asking a thou sand questions about other people's affairs. • From these letters he drew the portrait of Dr. Warner, a chaplain, who confessed that he did not believe in his religion, bat thanked Heaven he was not so bad as alawyer who talked of having come home from "a hard day's christening"— a boisterous and uproarious parasite, who revelled in the thoughts of ox cheek and Burgundy, who licked the blacking from the Duke of Queensberry's shoes with a gusto, liking it almost as well as the best Claret in old Queensberry's cellar, bat was goodhearted withal, bene.: volent, and is recorded to have occasionally delivered good sermons. The commencement of this reign was the most dissolute period our country ever knew. George the Se cond's bad morals bore their fruit in George the Third's early years, as I believe a knowledge of that godly man's (George the Third's) good example, his moderation, his frugal simplicity, his God-fearing life, tended infinitely to improve the morals of the country, and purify the whole nation. Next to Dr. Warner, perhaps the best drawn character in Selwyn's correspondence was Lord Carlisle, the grand- father of the present Viceroy of Ireland, who had been well nigh ruioed by the awful debauchery and extravagance then in fashion. The dissoluteness of society was terrible. It had swarmed over Europe after the peace. It brought singing women and dancing 'women from all the operas in Europe, on whom my lords lavished thousands, while they left their honest wives and their honest children pining in lonely splendour in the castle and park at home. Lord Car lisle was one, however, who, after passing through a sea son of riotous pleasure—in which he never altogether forgot that he had a good wife and children—finally settled down into a sober country gentleman. It was different with Lord March, afterwards Duke of Queensberry. The le gends about old Queensberry were awful,lbut almost in our own time, the gambling, wrinkled, paleiod old Don Juan had died as wicked and unrepentant as in his hottest days of youth and passion. It is to the middle classes we must look for the society of England ; the working educated man, away from Lord North's bribery in the senate ; the active clergy, not corrupted into parasites by hopae e , f . pre ferment; the tradesmen rising into opulence ; painiCrs pursuing the gentle art ; men of letters in their quiet study —these are the men we love and like to read of in these days. How small the grandees and men of pleasure look beside them ! How contemptible the story of George the Third's court eqsfabbles beside the recorded talk of dear old Johnson ! In their nights at the club, their modest caps never ended in riots. There was Goldsmith so odd and natural, Burke the finest talker in the world, Gar rick flashing in with a story from his theatre, with Percy, and Langton, and poor Bozzy at the table. Not merely how pleasant, and how wise, but how good the men were ! Relating how Johnson carried an old woman on his back down Cheapside, and how Burke, in returning from the club, encountered a poor Magdalene to whom he spoke in his kind, wise way, and whose tears so moved bins that he took her home to his wife and family, until lie could find her an honest way of living—" Oh ! you fine gentlemen," said the lecturer, " you March, Selwyn, Ches terfield, how small you look by the aide of these great men." Johnson, more then a whole bench of bishops, more than Pitt, North, and the great Fox hieoself, had the ear of the nation, and his great voice recioneilet: it to autho rity. When George the Third talked to hint, and when the nation heard Johnson's opinion of the sovereign, a whole generation rallied to the throne. Ho was regarded as ,2 sort of oracle ; and when he declared for church and king, ti:' people followed him. What a humanity the good old man had. He was a fierce foe to all sin, but a gentle enemy to all sinners. He had the "liberty of_the scenes," as he called it at the theatre, and occasionally made use of it. " The actresses know me," said he, " and drop a curtsey as they pass." What a picture this would make, the lecturer thought—" Gaiety so tenderly surveyed by wisdem's mer ciful pure eyes." Introducing a brief sketch of Lord Bute, hated with a rage of which there are few examples in English history, hated because he was a favourite, " and shall I say it, because he was a Scotchman"—the butt for Wilkes's de vilish mischief, and Chatham's slashing satire—he deli neated in strong terms the shrewd, hard, domineering mother of George the Third, who acknowledged her son was a dull boy, but kept continually croaking in his ear, " George, be a king." Of the character of that monarch Mr. Thackeray then entered upon an elaborate sketch. George inherited his mother's bigotry and hatred, with the obstinacy of his race ; but he was a firm believer where his fathers were unbelievers, and he supported the church, of which he was the titular head. He did not like Fox, Reynolds, Nelson, Chatham, nor Burke ; he loved mediocrity ; Benjamin West was his favourite painter, Beattie his favourite poet. He lamented in after life that his education had been neglected, that he was a doll lad brought up by narrow-minded people. The clever est tutors could have done little probably to expand that small intellect, though they might, perhaps, have improved his taste, and taught his perceptions more generosity. He admired as well ae he could. To Hannah Lightfoot, the actress, he was said to have been married, although I never knew of any one who had seen the register ; and there was laughing, black-haired Lady Sarah Lennox, who used to make hay at him on the lawn of Holland House, and who died in our own time, the mother of the heroic Napiers. He married the Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz , although it was said he winced a little when first he saw her—and for years they led one of the happiest and sim plest of lives ever led by married couple. Their time was spent in the most regular ma nner. In the evening they would have a country dance . , at which the king would dance for three hours to ont tune, after which deli cious excitement they would go to bed without any supper. He vets fond of n:111970, and the theatre was alwsys his delight. The smallest jokes would set him off laughing, and when the clown swallowed a carrot or a string of sausages, he would roar and hullaballoo so out rageously that the lovely iprincess tut his Bide had to say, " My glorious monarch do compose yourself ; " and . ho continued to laugh as long as. his Mao w its were left him. The simple, stubborn, affectionate, b i goted man earnestly triad to learn, and succeeded in j oerfectly acquiring all the routine parts of the royal' business. Who could wonder that with such 3 Luau to rule and lead the people, tc declare war, and to decide who his mil lions of subjects were to slay, and who they were to b e friends with, humiliation and failure should be tho result. George the Third was always at war with the aristocracy ; it was he and the people that carried on the American war, denied justice to the Roman Catholics, and on these questions beat the patricians. He bribed and bullied, and darkly dissembled upon occasion—beat North and Fox, and even bowed the stately neck of the younger Pitt by his indomitable determination. In all this he was perfectly honest; for it was by persons thoroughly believing they were right thatnine-tenths of the tyranny of the world had been perpetrated. Persecution of all kinds had always been popular—in Algiers, in Spain, in Italy, as in Eng !and. .George 111. wished nothing but the good of his peo ple, and, as he declared to Lord Bute, he regarded all who opposed him as the bad men and bad subjects. Returning from an excursion amongst questions of policy to the bumbler court gossip, Mr. Thackeray, from Miss Burney's description of her miserable life in the Queen's household, portrayed the life at Kew and Windsor, the little Queen surrounded by her stout sons and fair daugh ters, the household frugal and orderly, but the whole thing stupid to a degree one shudders now to contemplate— , quieter house or a more prosaic life could not be imagined. But it was the fashion of the times, although there were strange differences between now and then. Peeping into quiet cottageat Olney, Mrs.lJuwin and Lady Hesketh, two high bred ladies, were seen sitting listening to the gentle Cowper reading to them the life of Jonathan Wild. The ad mirers of George the Third had filled volumes with stories Of his homely ways—riding about and talking with every one he met about their crops, or their families, or the rents of their houses. It was thus that our fathers liked their old King, and magnified him as the great representative of the regal character. Gilray represented him, like a King of Brohlignag, holding a lilliputian Napoleon in the palm of his hand, and surveying him through an opera-glass. "I had once thought," said Mr. Thackeray, " of making a collection of the lies that the French had invented against us, and that we had published against them during the war." The life of tie Princess Amelia, the darling of the old King, her father, made a beautiful episode of the lee lure, and the last scene presented him heart-broken athm death. With her death reason deserted him, and from the 10th of November, 1810, George the Third ceased to reign. Mr. Thackeray concluded—History presents no sadder picture than that old man, blind and deprived of reason, wandering through his palace, haranguing imaginary Parliaments, and reviewing ghostly troops. He became utterly deaf too. All sight, all reason, all sound of human voices, all the pleasures of this world, of God, were taken from him. Some slight lucid moments he had, in one of which the queen, desiring to see him, entered the room and found him singing a hymn and accompanying himself on the harpsichord ; when finished, he kneeled down and prayed aloud for her and for his family, and then for the nation, concluding with a prayer for himself that God would avert his heavy calamity from him, but if not, that He would give him resignation to submit to it. He then burst into tears, and his reason again fled. What preacher need moralise on this story ? What words, save the simplest, are requisite to tell it? It is too terrible for tears. The thought of such misery smites me down in submission before the Ruler of kings and men— the Monarch supreme over empires and republics, the inscrutable dispenser of life, death, happiness, victory Oh brothers, I said to those who heard me first in Ame rica—Oh ! brothers, speaking the same dear mother tongue —Oh ! comrades, enemies no more, let us take a mournful hand together as we stand by this royal corpse and c .11 a truce to battle. Low he lies to whom the proud est used to kneel once, and who was cast lower than the poorest, whom millions prayed over in vain. Driven off his throne, buffetted by rude hands, with his children in revolt, the darling of his old age killed before him, old Lear hangs over her breathless lips, and calls—Cordelia, Corde lia, stay a little. Tex not his ghost, 0 lot him pass, he hates him That would upon the rack of this rough world Stretch him out longer. Hush strife and quarrel over the solemn grave ! Sound trumpets a mournful march! Fall dark curtain upon hi , pageant, his pride, his griefs, his awful tragedy ! .~ ~~~, f- f/`l f / /re i(/ //2 '04'5P... 4 1.1 1 E13. 7 IN THE 100R,LAW BOARD A :VD THE OP MAR TLEBONE. 7 .•;.'s' - er eeeeee A MANDAMUS THREATENED AGAINST TtrE PAROCHIAL AUTHORITIES. Yesterday the parochial authorities of St. Marylebone assembled for their general weekly meeting in the board room of the workhouse, New-road, Mr. Bishop presiding. Mr. RAE, the secretary, read another long communi cation from the Poor-law Board, dated " Whitehall, Nov. 13, 1856," in which the board fully recapitulated the proceedings between the commissioners and the parochial authorities up to the present period from the inquiry instituted by their inspector into the alleged logging of women in the workhouse to the resignation of the master, at the same time remarking that th• board had received no reply to the proceedings of the board of guardians upon the resignation of the master, and observing that there being virtually no such officer in the workhouse now, called upon the guardians to show cause why they did not proceed with the election of another master in the place of Mr. Ryan, resigned. In conclusion, the commissioners said : " The directors and guardians have not informed the board what is the object of their consideration with refe rence to this matter. But lam directed by the board to point out again that the office of th e wor k house master is vacant, and has been so since the date of the resignation of Mr. Ryan, such resignation being absolute and cOmplete in itself ; so that it is unnecessary for the directors and guar dians to consider whether they will or will notascocnenletgiatl.ly " I am further directed to state that it i e now incum bent upon the directors and guardians forthwith t o fill up responsiblethe forvacancy i n the performance order thatthere o f the duties may he some per of the office of master, and legally empowered to enforce the regula tions necessary for the due order and discipline within the workhouse. " In conclusion, I am directed to inform the directors and guardians that unless they are prepared at once to fill up the vacant office, and do forthwith till it up, the board, however reluctant to adopt such a course, will, in the dis charge of their duty, have no other alternative but to apply to the Court of Queen's Bench to enforce upon the directors and guardians their legal obligation. (Signed) " COURTENeY, Secretary." Mr. POTTER moved that the communication should be taken into consideration that day week, and in the mean time a letter which had been prepared by the rector would be forwarded to the Poor-law Board. (Hear.) Mr. BATTING seconded the motion. The Rev. Professor MARKS drew the attention of the board to a most important point in the communication, where the Poor-law Board stated that there was no longer a master in the workhouse, and therefore if a - y riot or insubordination arose in the workhouse, the master had to appear before the magistrate, he (Mr. Marks) should like to know if he would recognise the master's authority! Mr. POTTER replied that this question was one of minor importance. (Hear, and dissent.) The Poor-law Board wished to show their authority ; they (the guardia is) disputed it, and he (Mr. Potter) doubted it altogether. (Hear.) If they admitted the COMEllissioll• ere' right to dismiss the ma , -te r, they could not elect or dismiss another without tie board's approval ; and there was the great question to be solved. (Hear.) If they acknowledged the authority of the Poor-law Board, they would have none left themselves. (Hear.) Therefore he considered his motion for the consideration of the poor-law letter that day week would fully meet the case, and when the struggle came be trusted they would be Able to fight and beat the Poor-law Board. (Hear.) The Rev. Professor MARKS continued—He hoped that it was fully undeestood the matter would be fully considered that day week, and not put off from time to Lime again as it had been. (Hear.) He sincerely trusted the matter would be seriously considered that day week once and for all. (Hear.) Tne question should not be net by individual opinion, but in a fair and manly manner. Mr. POTTER rejoined that he trusted the board would act in concert to oppose and not admit the authority of the Poor-law Board. (Hear.) The Hon. and Rev. Mr. PELHAM, the rector, observed . hat he thought the subject should be considered by a Special board. (Hear.) Their legal adviser had ex pressed a wish that all steps should be kept over until the settlement of the St. Pancras contention with the Poor-law Board, but the question there was a very different one to that in Marylebone—it was respecting the ap peintment of an auditor, and not as to the dismissal and election of a master, It was therefore important under such circumstances, and as they were threatened with a writ of mandamus, for their legal adviser to again attend and give his advice ; for if they met to consider the sub ject, they would not like to come to a decision without Oaving proper legal advice In conclusion, the rector moved "That a special board be appointed to take into consideration file whole subject." This amendment having been seconded, Mr. POTTER withdrew his motion, as he wished the hoard to act in a body in such a matter. Mr. ANDERSON warmly condemned the interference of she Poor-law Board, observing that by their own letter on a former occasion it was evident that it was not the -nere dismissal of the master they were aiming at, but to get a footing in the parish; for they said that it was not e mere change of officers would benefit the workhouse, Lnd at the same time forwarded rules and regulations `or its future management. For years past they had aken a most dishonourable part in their efforts to ob tin a power over the officers of that large and influen ,ial parish, and he trusted the parochial authorities would sow resist them to the utmost of their power. Under the circumstances, he urged that a motion should be edopted, in which the Poor-law Commissioners would be , ntermed that they (the guardians) were alone responsible ,o the vestry acid the ratepayers, who had elected them. Mr. VANHEEMS said that under the circumstances it you'd be advisable for the master not to appear at pre ent as prosecutor before the magistrate, but any cases insubordination should be brought before the board for disposal. (Hear.) Mr. CARR remarked that the house was in a most die :raceful state of riot and insubordination ; and only th a t norning the master had applied for additional cells, (Great dis.atisfaction.) He never saw the house in a verse state ; and when he went through the oakum-yard :uring the week, he found the women running about yelling, and making all sorts of noises. (Increased dis- Atistaction ) Mr; Tindal, Mr. Potter, and others, charged Mr. Carr with exaggerating the real state of things, but they ad mitted at the same time that 71 insubordinate females were allowed to assemble together. Further discussion ensued, and the Hon. and Rev. Mr. Pelharn's motion for a special board was agreed to, in order that the subject might be fully gone into and fin ally settled. The board then adjourned. S SIIREWSBURY ESTATES. The following letter, in reply to Lord Talbot's circu lar, has been sent to the Shrewsbury tenants : " Lincoln's-inn-fields, Nov. 12. " Sir,—You have probably received a notice from Earl Talbot, requiring you to pay your rent to him, and not to the trustees of the will of the late Bertram Arthur, Earl of Shrewsbury. We beg you will pay no attention to this or any similar notice from Earl Talbot, or any other person. " No ono has even a pretence for claiming the estates against the devisees of the late Earl until it has been proved to h the become esatisfact,ioEnarolfofthsehHreowussbeuouf.l.ords that the claimant " It is confidently believed that the earldom has become extinct, in which case the estates now belong, without ques tion, to the late Earl's devisee, Lord Edmund Bernard infant, the second son of his Grace t he Duke o li f o N w o a r r f d O n lk a . " Under such circumstances it could not be expected that Mr. Hope Scott and Mr. Serjeaut Bellasis, the trustees for hod Edmund during his minority, would voluntarily sur render the possession of the estates, and subriiit to have a receiver appoin ted b y the Court of Chancer y at the instanc e of Lord Talbot or any other person ; though it may be added that, with the desire of preventing annovance to the tenants, and at the same time of treating Lord Talbot with a ll proper consideration, the trustees did offer to satisfy his lordship that the rents of the estates, less the actual necessary expenditure, should be invested and accumulated py them pending the litigation which hislordship threatens. " If ever Lord Talbot, or any other person, should, con contrary to all expectation, succeed in establishing a title to the earldom of Shrewsbury, the devisees of the late earl will be fully prepared to maintain in the courts of law the validity of the disentailing deed executed by the earl of his family estates. " In the meantime, to secure the tenants from being in. volved in any personal liability, it has been arranged, with the sanction of the Duke of Norfolk, that a full written indemnity against the claim of Earl Talbot, and every other portion, shall be given to the tenants on their conti nuing to pay their rents to Mr. Hope Scott and Mr. Ser. innt Bellasis, as trustees for Lord Edmund Bernard How ard during his minority ; and we have no doubt that such an arrangement will prove as satisfactory to you aa it has proved to the tenants of the other estates the rents of which have fallen due since the late earl's death. " We are, sir, your obedient servants, " CURRIE, WOODGATE, b, WILLIAMS, " Solicitors for Lord Edmund Bernard Howard and.. s Mr. Hope Scott and Mr. Serjeant Bellasis,bi trustees." ... _ AND PSESFEcTIYa POWERFUL Tei.e.sce.Pas, OPERA, p•Ace , i ie j ans . 39, Alba rAnvERviRENINgT. j SIGHT.
