The accounts brought to us by the preceding packet appear, after this revi sion, to have been i n one or two particulars very considerably exaggerated. The Confederates who have actually crossed the Potomac, it seem s, num ber no more than a few thousand men altogether. Along the banks of that river, however, in readi ness to follow their command s on the short est notice, loitered the rest o f the Southern soldiers making up the sum total of the grand army, under the banners of LEE. That army as a whole is estimated, moreover, we now learn, at an aggregate of from 80,000 to 100,000 men. Sup posing which estimate to be correct, the numbers, it is observable, are slightly in excess of th ese pertaining to the Federal army under Ro olitit. Very slightly, however, if at all, can it, be in exc ess of the Federals under HOOKER seeing that General LEE has refrained hitherto from assailing his antagonist, or from (as yet) croesing the Potomac. A portion of his troops, LEE has sent across it is true but only a portion, as already remarked, numbering a very few thousand. These, when the last advices left, were still in Maryland and Pennsylvania . They are there manifestly enough less for purposes of reconnoitring than either as an advanced guard or as a decoy. Probably the next intelligence received from that part of the seat of war will clearly enough indicate the purpose of General LEE in de ciding upon this partial and apparently as yet merely episodical movement. Hagerstown, although hitherto the onlyplace on the left side of the Potomac, occupied by the Confederate troops, the comparative few of them at least thrown across it north of Washington, certainly appears to have been occu pied in something like earnest, stores having been transported thither in abundance ! Hagerstown had been constituted, iu point of fact, the head quarters of the expeditionary force in Maryland, whence it might venture at pleasure upon future raids into Pennsylvania. A confident statement meanwhile appears to have been put forth through the New Tea: Tribune to the ['Tea that General LEE had moved his main army in fo:ce upon Centreville, th ere defeating the Federala under HOOKER, and defeating them so completely that, according to the corroborated account of .11ANHATTAN, "HOOKER [meaning his immediate entourage, we presume] had been cut to pieces, and his army captured." Rather a confused, almost we had said a contradic t° 17, Way of putting it. But, even when expressed thus ninB e B lY.

One Penny. the Northern public in New York and Washington, the clamour again revives, swelling more and more loudly upon the Presidential ear, for the replace. ment of HOOKER by M'CLELLAN. Faithful to their old belief in his capacity—a belief, upon what founded, it would certainly be difficult even to con jecture—the admirers of M'CLELLAN hope against hope to the very last for his reinstallation in the chief command, and for the rehabilitation of the all but irretrievably ruined fortunes of the North. While these— HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE, LAST NIGHTS OF THE SEASON. EXTRA NIGHT. FAUST. THIS EVENING (Thursday, July 2), will be repeated " Hopes and fears that nourish hope An undistinguishable throng"— still agitate the hearts of the Northerners, the sword of LEE, like the sword above DAMOCLES, trembles, ore may say, by the suspension of a hair, over dreaming Washington, The account of Mr. GLAISHER'S eleventh balloon ascent will be read with deep interest by all who can admire courage and skill, even if they are unable to profit to the full by the valu able information he has added to our scientific store. The energies of our countrymen in pur suit of scientific knowledge is becoming no less remarkable than their political or commercial activity. How many brave men have laid down their lives for what was after all a discovery which chiefly concerned the curious, for the North-west passage must always be useless as a channel for navigation. Englishmen have explored the Austra lian continent, and have penetrated into those African wilds left hitherto in undisputed possession of the savage native tribes. The discovery of Messrs. SPEKE and GRANT has just added a signal triumph to the list of their exploits; but not con tent st ith traversing the surface, and detecting the secrets of Mother Earth, our adventurous country men now take to the upper world of air. Like the conqueror who lamented that no more worlds re mained for him to subjugate, our adventurers have scarcely room for their energies on terra firma. Mr. GLAISHER and his able companion, Mr. COXWELL, have already distinguished themselves by the extent of their experiments, and the last ascent Mr. GLAISHER distinctly asserts to be among the most extraordinary ever made. The ascents made by these gentlemen belong to a very different order of exploit from the " air balloons" which fill chil dren with wonder and delight. The height at tained on this occasion was no less than four miles and a half, and the results of the observations made were curious and valuable. Unfortunately, owing to the high wind there was some difficulty in get ting the balloon to rise properly, as there was not a sufficient supply of gas to contend with the wind. To insure clearing the adjacent buildings five bags of sand had to be thrown out at the last moment. This loss of weight facilitated the rising, but was proportionately disadvantageous to the descent. It seems a pity that provision was not made for a windy day, anti that the consequent incon venience was not avoided. The aerial travellers left the earth at three minutes past one p.m., re turning to it at 28 minutes past two, having thus been absent less than one hour and a half. Before starting the temperature was 66 degrees, but of course diminished rapidly on leaving the earth. It underwent many variations during the Recent, and reached the lowest point-17 degs.—at the height of four miles and a quarter. A faint sun was seen in rising after passing some clouds. The sighing of the wind was heard for the first time during these ascents at the height of two miles. The sound seemed to come from below the balloon as from conflicting currents beneath. Shortly after they became enveloped in a dry fog, which con tinued more or less until they had reached an alt tude of more than four miles. During the descent the sea was no more to be seen, but rain pattered on the bal oon, and for a space of nearly 4,000 feet the travellers passed through a snow storm. Mr. GLAISHER, in recapitulating the results of his jour ney, considers the meeting with snow and crystals of ice 'in the month of June floating in the atmosphere at the height of three miles and of nearly one mile in thickness as the most extraordi • nary and unexpected. A train was heard at a height of more than four miles, the greatest altitude at which sounds have been heard. This is an indication of the generally moist state of the atmosphere. For further particulars, and more especially for the results of Mr. GLAISHER'S experiments with his instruments, we refer the reader to his interesting letter. We may hope if these gentlemen are enabled to continue their interesting experiments, that they will greatly add to the scope of that meteorological knowledge which has already done some good ser vice by forwarning us of sudden and violent at mospheric changes. Last night the LORD MAYOR entertained the Earl of DERBY, Mr. DISRAELI, and all the leading mem bers of the Conservative party, at a splendid enter tainment in the Egypian Hall. Lord DERBY re• turned thanks in an amnbing speech. He began by stating that political bias was unknown in the e ntertainments in the City. " You," my Lord Alayor, said be, " haverEceived this year with die- oguished hospitality the members of her Majesty's Government, of which I am happy to say your lord. s hip is not a supporter." Then he went on to sup pose various circumstances in which the present smoo th state of things might be altered. He be lieved that if the chair of the mayoralty were filled by the most r abid Dissenter, the bish ops and rld t re at him with due respect, and a l so clergy 7 'o that if a Quaker Lord Mayor appeared he would Army, and Volunt eers . do hono ur to the N av y , There i s no doubt that this remark of the noble Earl is true, for the influence of established custom is very gre a t, an d it is surprising what importance is attach e d to the maintenance of the principle of toleration that has so long existed in the City with regard to the exer c i se of the functions of chief magistrate. IL,. said Lord DERBY, on the present occasion he thought be might venture to depart som ew h at from the rule Shat prescribed the introduction o f • • polities, seeing E o many of hi s friends around hi m, and remembering also the fact that the toast had been proposed not only by the MAYOR of London, b at the member for Southamp ton " in which town the Conservative party had achieved one of the most distinguished am o ng the many electioneering triumphs they have accom plished." His lordship then gave • a brief resumi of the course of events, in which ho truly described the conduct that had ejected the Ce • nservatives from office as a pretext, which pretext, as soon as it bad revved its turn, was abandoned. No words can be too strong to apply to the most unfair transaction in which the present Government gained their places ; it was a subterfuge unworthy of English statesmen, and it did not speak very highly for their own merits that they had no measure suffi ciently good or important to advocate out of office and introduce wt en in power. Lord DERBY then paid a just tribute to the moderate and forbearing conduct displayed by the Conservatives since they had been ejected from office. He gave an im pressive description of the arduous nature of the line they had marked out for themselves, and justly declared that it was difficult to maintain. " My Lord Mayor, it, is with political parties very much as it is with troops. It is not the ac ,ve campaign —it is net the heat of the engagement which tries the mettle of the troops, but it is the long protracted inaction—it is the lying exposed to fire with the enemy in your front, and not being permitted to make an attack—the waiting for the moment when victory may be achieved, and which might be lost if too early anticipated. That is the trial of the temper and forbearance and of the real courage of the soldier. That, too, is the trial of the temper, the forbearance, and the real patriotism of a political party. My Lord Mayor, such is the course which has been pursued by the Conservative party of this country for the last four years." This observation of the noble earl is most correct, and those who have struggled in the great battle of life will recognise its truth and attest its validity. Also, Lord DERBY remarked that any other party might have fallen off in num- bers during this vexatious period of suspense ; but, on the contrary, there were now in the House of Commons a larger number of Conservative members than he could claim the assistance of when he was First Minister of the Crown. Lord DERBY hen commented on the state of things in the Liberal party, and said that they were willing to leave their favourite places in abey ance just now, or if they did advance then, they had the pleasure " of seeing their projects when brought forward either faintly supported or actually wet-blanketted, or in some cases even laughed out of the House of Commons by their very leaders hemselves." Lord DERBY then went at some length into the general state of affairs and finally declared his conviction that it was better fcr the Conservatives to be in a strong opposition, than in a weak Government. In one case they were in a feeble state trusting to " precarious forbearance," n the other they were able to control the actions o: the Minister and preventing any injury to the public service by their determined front and bold bearing. His lordship then commented on the barren crop of legislation which the present session afforded, but reminded them of the words of a de parted statesman, "Register, register, register," this was the month to follow that advice. Lord DERBY then said that the four members of the city were professedly opposed to monopoly, but that they were effecting a scandalous one by monopolising all the seats of the City to their own party. He con• eluded his brilliant address by declaring his con viction that the great party who trusted him had adopted a wise course, and that at some future period they would reap their reward; if slow it would be sure, and better than hastily grasping at a prize which would assuredly have been snatched from them. Mr. DISRAELI made an ainuzing speech, which was on the House of Commons. The hon. gentleman's sarcasms on its want of performances and paucity of good works were very entertaining. He thus characterised its late proceedings :—" I believe I msy say, on the part of that House, that at present its health is very good. It is not as full of vigour naturally as it was some years ago, when in this hall I was called upon by the chief magistrate of the city to return thanks for it. Then it was full of youth, of hope, and of promises. Its youth is exhausted ; its hopes have been defeated; and its promises have not been fulfilled. This I acknow ledge, but I trust it has obtained that which indi- victuals under the same circumstances in life often acquire in the sunset of their days; I trust it has acquired the character of respectability. At pre- sent, considering its course during the current ses sion, the moderate exertions which it has made, and the early hours which it has kept, I hope it may arrive at a green old age." Mr. DISRAELI is in- imitable in his quiet satire, and certainly he could not have a better theme than the course pursued by this famous Parliament, which was to have effected such wonders, and whose only at- tainment has been to do nothing, or as little as possible, with regard to a sense of propriety. Mr. DISRAELI adverted to the exciter ment in the City lately with regard to proposed changes, and declared that, whether in or out of office, they would always uphold the importance of maintaining the rights of ancient corporations, which, " among many other causes, have greatly contributed to the formation of the English charac- ter." The Conservatives have had a brilliant season, this year they have assembled at numeroua meetings, ippear quite satisfied with their progress. It is a curious fact that there have been no Liberal re unions; that party seems to think that silence is the safest course, which perhaps it is under existing circumstances. The recent terrible naval disasters have brought prominently before us the perils of the seas, and the appeal of the National Lifeboat Institution for assistance is not likely to be overlooked. The annual report of this society is now before us, recounting the achievements of the past year, and giving a full • list of all subscribers, testators, and donors. We • have already given part of these statistics, which prove that the managing committee have not dimi i nished in energy, the men engaged in noble daring, or the public in their appreciation of the services rendered. The number of lives saved during 1861 and the first five months of the present year is 886, 460 of these being rescued by the lifeboats of the institution, and 426 by shore hoats Emit other means, for which the institution has granted rewards. The committee are especially anxious that this part of the system should be more widely known and more generally understood. It does not restrict its efforts to the equipment and maintenance of life boat stations on the more exposed and dangerous parts of the coast. Its primary object being to save life, it gives reward and encouragement to any per -on wh o h as succeeded by other means in rescuing s n i a c r e gon t ut o ri this y t o fishingec- extensively l a :g e g e i e r s r e:u a l n . a 4 d t e a d n p o p i t s seaport eoffm some ttpouhwrapns purpose anshe ein n d stimulating exertion or in discovering merit, for we find a considerable number of rewards thus given. This shows an earnestness and • • sincerity of purpose, and an absence of that narrowne ss of feeling which too often interferes with similar benevolent schemes. The object of reformers and theorist's is too fre quently not that the work shall be done, no matter by whom, but that it shall be dona in their own Peculiar fashion. The bestowal of rewards on per sons totally unconnected with the society shows us the real anxiety of the committee to attain the benevolent end they propose to the public, and will great l y benefit the cause n o t so muc h by the money given, but by the p u bli c recognition merit—an honour well deserved by of the enterprising • men who win it. There are many places, naturally, where wrecks may occur, and where no lifeboats arc within hail, and where all chan ce o f rescue depends on the shore boats and the There volunteers w h o m an them. are also occasions ry to bring out the on which i t i s not f oun d necessa lifeboat, whrch to sea on occasions goes This when no shore boat could venture. ' ty's influence arrange ment extends the sphere of the seem and willgive generally it a greater interest in the eyes of . our Tae seafaring men, mi. -Le recent catastrophes have g ive n rise to some and , ggestions which might, if adopte d, go far t o prevent their recurrence. In the July part of the j ournal of the Institution, we find A paper on th e regulations for preventing collisions at sea which deserves attentioa. The frequency of these articles is really startling. The average number of cases off our own shores during the seven years preceding 1862 was 300, the cases during last year amounted to 338, thus exceeding the average considerably. The recent amended regulations issued by the Board of Trade and just come into effect, will, we may hope, lessen the chance of such accidents. In recording the two lamentable wrecks of the Orpheus and the Anglo• Saxon, the journal of the Institution deplores the scanty supp.v of boats, which so greatly increased the extent of the sacrifice. The Anglo-Saxon had but six boats, " being," as the article referred to remarks, " only one boat to each 74 persons on board." "'We con sider," says the same writer, " that a vessel of her size might have carried twice that number of boats, and, in addition, have been provided with the material specially prepared for putting to gether a raft of sufficient size to carry a large number of persons." The great advan• tage of large ships being we 1 provided with the means of diminishing the loss of life it. case of ship wreck does not appear to be duly considered. It has been already suggested that every boat in a passenger vessel should be a lifeboat, a really effi cient lifeboat, not a contrivance that fails in the hour of danger. The expense of such an equipment might, it has been observed, be defrayed by a trifling charge to each passenger—a specie of in surance that would be gladly paid by reasonable men. We hope this matter will be looked into, and some plan of the kind adopted, since nothing is more painful in the harrowing narratives of ship wreck than the description of the rush to the boats which often fail and are always too few in number. We generally find one or two boats escape in safety ; is it not then doubly mournful to hear of fifty or a hundred persons being left to go down with the wreck when, if there tad been a proper supply of boats, all might at least have had a chance of life. The public will do well to see that some change is made in the present arrangements, and it is in cumbent upon the Government to see that the ves sels in the Royal Navy are sufficiently supplied with really efficacious boats. The National Life boat Institution will do good service if it succeed in convincing those in authority of the necessity of a change in the present inefficient and negligent method of equipment, and will add largely to the already extensive list of human lives rescued by its LITERATURE. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. Memorable Eventsin the Life of a London Physician. One vol. pp. 276. Virtue Brothers. When we say that the physician, whose expe riences are here recorded, is Dr. Dickson, the cele brated author of "Fallacies of the Faculty," the great medical reformer and innovator, it is samost superfluous to add that this work is full of interest and full of common sense. It is earnest and thoughtful, and eminently practical in the lessons which it inculcates—lessons worthy of deep atten tion. The writer is, perhaps, a little too anxious to enforce his own opinions, a little too reliant upon the truths of his own philosophy, but it is a goJd fault. Earnestness is the secret of all success, and we cannot expect that a man who has been bold enough to believe, and to act in opposition to the venerable traditions of his confraternity, will hesi tate to stand by his opinions and claim the merit of their origin when their truth has been admitted by a large majority, and when others were found (as is always the case) to share in a success which they had no hand in achieving. In his younger days Dr. Dickson tells us he was constantly assured that the best school for study was the dissecting room,and while he admits that this advice is admirable for the acquisition of mechanical skill iu surgery,he ridicules the idea of studying pathology in such a spot. " To associate," he indignantly exclaims, "the word pathos—sensibility, feeling—with the dissection of bodies that by no possibility can feel at all, is a new edition of /um a non lucendo." We will not fol low Dr. Dickson throughout his very clear and com prehensive explanation of his favourite theory— the Chrono•thermal—a system founded upon the fact of man being essentially a creature of habit (periodicity) and exquisitely susceptible to the fluc tuations of temperature. A resolute foe, like many of the more sensible doctors of modern days, to the old established system of purging and bleeding, Dr. Dickson's object is to strengthen nature, and to employ art only to assist in the progress of a ❑atural recovery. This teaching is best summed up in the lines applied to him in a letter from one of his admirers—. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

PARIS, JULY 2 An Imperial decree has been published creating ,he office of superintendent-general of the theatres. M. Baciocchi has been nominated to this post. In the Presse of this evening M. Emile de Girardin announces that this journal has completed 27 years of cx:stence. In a short address to the public M. de Girardin claims credit for the zeal consistency the Presse has always displayed. "It supported the Monarchy of 1830 till its last labour —the 24th of Febrmry ; and the Republic of 1848 till its last day—the 2d of December." The Presse was never the organ of opposition. It was founded as a supporter of Government, but of "Government having liberty and peace for end and means." If it has taken the side of opposition more frequently than he could have wished, M. de Girardin says " that was not the fault of the Presse." It never wished to weak nor overthrow , . authority, but to maintain and strengthen it. Stil,, as the advocate of legal liberty, above all things, M. de Girardin ha 3 been compelled som. times to give authority a vigorous push, when the obj.ct was "to ix , ricate it from the rut worn by arbi trary power." The present restrictions of the freedom of the French press he denounces as a " legal communism." The laws of September,lB3s, made the whole French people accomplices of the crime of Fieschi. The entire nation was deprived of the freedom of discussion, because Paris, on a certain day, contained one cowardly assassin. And did these repressive laws, he asks, save the Royalty of 1830, they were intended to protect ? This sys tem, end all the more recent decrees founded on it, the Presse asserts it has constantly condemned.

Mr. Savile has endeavoured to combine both extremes, and the result was so inevitable that is hardly ne cessary to particularise it. He has failed, emi nently failed, in attaining the sublime—he has suc ceeded entirely in ensuring the ridiculous! The first chapter of his book is on the origin of man, and gives a tolerably amusing enumeration of the different theories of "development," theories admir ably summed up in a poem (quoted in this volume) which appeared some time back in Blackwoods .211agazine, entitled " Monboddo," and with which our readers are no doubt familiar. The last chapter relates to the " end of man," and is filled with a collection of' most ridiculous epitaphs, some of which are "well known to all the lovers of such curiosities of literature. The main interest of the book, in fact, consists in well known quotations. In fact we may justly quote, as a true comment on the author of this work (and Mr. Savile is fond of such quotations), Lord Russell's witty commentary upon an offending -leaker, " He has uttered many things that are true, and many things that are new, but unfortu nately those which are true are not new, and those which are new are not true"—and so haNe we found it with Mr. Savile. life, Law, and literature.

They are, for the most part, brief, and may serve to occupy a leisure ten minutes in the perasal of one or other of them, but they will not be dismissed from the thoughts when thebook is laid aside. Kindred spirits will feel encouraged and benefitted by their brief but earnest intercourse with Mr. Baxter. The subjects of his re marks are singularly varied, among them are essays on " Poets" and "Poetry," and "Periodical Litera ture," on " Colonies and Commerce," on " Marriage with a Deceased Wife's Sister," on " War not Un christian," " Legends and Language," " Our Duty to Society," " How to Make a Lawyer," " Literal Translations," " Dramatic Entertainments," " Hu mour in its relation to the Poet," and a multitude of others of equally varied character. In some very just remarks in the last-named article, it is truly said, in reference to the poet's power of appreciation, " in this world of good and bad, of mirth and tears, the master-worker must have his eyes open, and his soul must vibrate to ever pulse of humanity, or he will be marred in delivering to men the reflex of themselves. A complete poet must have the faculty of seeing everything with the eyes of every class in the community to which he belongs ; be must see everything as they see it from their point of view." In other words, he must have sympathy. In the article on " Childhood," it is happily said, "a real child is worth kidnapping, for, to say the truth, they be rare." " Reading and Studs" is the subject of a very judicious article well worthy of of attentive perusal. it per Cents .. 96 85 Do, end 3 per Cents Do. end month..., 68 20 G'redit 1160 On. end month.... 1116 Italian Loan 73 70 Do. end month — New ditto _ 74 20 Do, end month....

The New York Tribune publishes a special Wash ington despatch, dated yesterday, asserting that General Lee has moved in force upon Centreville, and defeated the Federals at that point. Generals Lee and _Ewell on Thursday, the 18th, occupied Thoroughfare Gap, which they hold. Longstreet is threatening Leesburg, and Hill was at Dumfries. On Thursday night the Confederates transported their stores acmes the Potomac to Hagerstown, making tt at place their headquarters, for raids into Pennsylvania. M. GOUNOD, THE COMPOSER OF FAUST.—In 1851, some sacred music made by him was first brought to hearing, and in London, at St. Martin's Hall, under the presidency of Mr John Hullah; and later in the same year, Sapho, his first opera, in Paris, owing to the active and prescient influence of a great artist. The recep- tion of these works was in England damnation, in France faint praise. Nothing daunted, the composer went on to write choruses for Ulysse, a dreary classical play by the toen much overrated M. Ponsard—a second opera, La Nonne Sanglante, to one of the worst drams in being— which opera, however, is rich in beautiful and characteristic music—a third La Medecin Malgre lui, a quaint treatment of MoHere's comedy ; and fourthly, this same inconvenient, unauthorised, and truly indefensible Faust, which has been bold enough to attack and to retain Germany, and to force its way into two of our English theatres at once—an opera which, like other things that cannot be cured, must be en dured—an opera simply and sf riously the only opera on the legend waich, till now, has gained, or deserved to gain universal acceptance. To make the victory more aignifi. can The Unionists in Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina are reported to have organised a powerful force to hold the mountain region against the Confederates. Twenty thousand Confederate insurgents are re ported to have offered to join the Federals if a military post were established at Raleigh. The steamer Calypso has been captured.

What the per manent fate of M. Gounod's opera may be in England it is not for us to say. There is a caprice in publics totally ir respective of real merit or national consistency. With our public, two of the best operas ever written, Cherubini's Les deux Journees, and bpontini's La Vestale, have no axis. tence. The Germans care little for Handel—the French know nothing of him. Come what may, M. Gounod's Faust exceeds every other former work on the subject-- Dickens's "All the Year Round." CAPTAINS GRANT AND SPEKRAT THE ETHN 0. LOGICAL SOClETY.—Yesterday evening an extra meeting of the members of the Ethnological Society was held at the United Service Institution, to Imr from Captain Grant an account of the ethnological peculiarities of the native races of Central Africa. Mr. Lubbock presided, and said he was glad to see Captain Grant and Captain Speke. The numerous attendance showed that the society was fully justified in holding an extra meeting to hear the paper which Captain Grant would read. Captain Grant, who met with a very cordial reception, then read his paper, which was highly interesting. The line from Zanzibar to Gondi corra was overspread, generally speaking, with the negro race. The chief exceptions were the Arabs and the Mahorna. No general description of the features of the negroes could be given, though the receding forehead, the prominent muzzle, the bridgeless nose, and well-shaped dark eyes were common to most of them. The cheek was prominent, and the head was well set on the shoulders. The trunk and limbs were symmetrically formed, and the head was covered with coarse, wiry wool. The awrage height was 5 feet 6or 7 inches. In dress or cleanliness the natives were not particular. They had no idea of a soul, and polygamy was the rule among them. The paper met with a very favourable reception; and in answer to questions from Mr. Crawfurd and others, Captains Grant and Spoke entered into a variety of explanations touching the manners and customs of the native races. Votes Of thanks were given with much cordiality ,o both travellers. Thomas Hood, the younger, has a "Cornish Story' nearly ready for publication. Mr. Froud has two volumes already in the press of his History of England under Elizabeth." William Blake's life, edited and completed by his widow, but for the most part writ ten by the late Mr. A. Gilchrist, will now very shortly be published. Henry Taylor, author of Philip Van Artevelde, follow ing the example of Robert Browning, has now in prepara tion a eompkte edition of his Poems and Plays. Like Browning's new edition, Taylor's will also be in three volumes, and will be published by the same firm, viz., Messrs. Chapman and Hall. THE SICK MAN.-It appears, after all, that the Emperor Nicholas's metaphor, comparing Turkey to a " sick man," is not original. In Montesquieu's " Lettres Persanes," lett. xix , occurs the following remarkable passage, which no doubt suggested the expression to the mind of the Czar : —" J'ai vu avec etonnement la foiblesse de l'empiro des Osmanlins. Ce corps nzalade ne se soutient pas par un regime dour et tempere, 'Leis par de remedes violens qui l'epuisent et le minent sans cease." means. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. ROMEO AND JULIET. Aidlle. Stella Colas made her fourth appearance last evening in the character of Juliet, before a refined an-3 numerous audience, and again confirmed the remarkable impression produced by her first pei formance. Every distinction which we then referred to was renewed in all its prominence. The singular union of force and delicacy of perception and emotion which so startled and charmed at first was again as conspicuous in the mingled feeling of her enchanting balcony scene, in her playful en treaties to her nurse, and in the surprising and masterly energy of her reveries in the bedroom. Her spectators were not less appreciative of the unusual power which they beheld, and rewarded her exertions with the most enthusiastic plaudits. We may thus repeat with no little confidence the opinion we have expressed that, combined with the charm of her face and person, and the apparent illusion of her youth, her powers have achieved a success which mutt be ranked among the most unique that has been witnessed in recent years. Mr. Walter Montgomery also as Romeo nightly improves his ground with the pubic, and repairs the comparatively weak impression which he gave them in Othello. His manliness and ardour render his impersonation of the young Montague by far the best in our remembrance. In the scene with the Friar, after the death of Tybalt, and also that of the churchyard, his energy and pathos are espe cially impreasive. Mr. George Vining again re lieved the tragic shadows of this play with the buoyant humour of his Mercatio, and made the de livery of " Queen Mab's dream" one of the most agreeable features of the night. The entire produc tion of the play, in fact, not forgetting of course the Friar and Nurse of Mr. and Mrs. Marston, make it one of the most faithful renderings of Shakspeare which has been seen in London for some time. DRURY LANE THEATRE. The long-announced performance in aid of the fund for erecting a national monument to Shakespeare took place on Wednesday evening, and attracted a brilliant audience. It consisted of selections from " itomeo and Juliet," " King John," "As You Like It," "Henry IV." " Much Ado About Nothing," " The Merchant of Venice," " Othello," " Hamlet," and " Minsummer Night's Dream." Mr. Adolphus Francis must have had considerable labour in get ting such a variety of actors and actresses together, and it was hardly to be expected that he could accompli.:l the task without meeting with opposi !ion in some quarters. The most interesting feature in the lengthy programme was the reappearance of Miss Helen Faucit, as Rosalind, in "As You Like It,' and the spontaneous burst of applause that greeted her must have been exceedingly gratifying, 38 it at once proved the public had not forgotten the brilliant talent of one who had long been absent from them. The principal scenes in which Rosa lind is engaged, in the las' three acts, were given, Miss Helen Faucit enchanting the audience with her deliciously feminine, graceful, piquant, aud fer vent development of the heroine. Every word told, and every syllable was rendered distinct with life and interest by this charming actress, who seems not to have lost one iota of her power. On the fall of the curtain the applause was ex traordinary, and when Mr. Vandenhoff led the lady forth to acknowledge the complimentary call the 'walls of Old Drury re echoed with the en• thusiastic cheering. The other prominent feature in the programme was the singing of the National Anthem, the solo parts being sustained by Miss Poole, Mrs. Howard Paul, and Mdlle. Parepa. In organising the entertainment, Mr. Francis has shown a zeal that deserves well of the public, and, judging from the brilliant and fashionable audience, the success he has struggled for will be achieved. THE LATE SUICIDE IN A RAILWAY TRAIN.—In The Sun of yesterday there appeared a brief account of the suicide of a gentleman in a railway train near Newark. We now publish further particulars. From papers found in the possession of the unfortunate gentleman, it appears that he was a Frenchman, and his name was Vis count des Maires. At the inquest held before Mr. Griffin, the coroner, Mr. F. Douglas, surgeon in her Majesty's In dian Service, stated that he joined the Edinburgh expret s train at Berwick, having a through ticket to London. He got into a compartment with the deceased and Dr. Lowe. He had N ery slight conversation with the deceased, merely an interchange of common civilities. Both gentlemen were strangers to him. He asked them if they objected to his smoking, and they replied in the negative. They all three then lighted their cheroots, and afterwards dozed. When the train got to York he asked the deceased, in French, if he would get out for refreshment. He said, " No, Ido not wish to get out." Witness and Dr. Lowe went into the coffee-room and had a cup of tea, and then returned to the cal liege. After the train had proceeded half a mile, deceased lighted his cheroot again. Dr. Lowe remarked that he could not sit ep, and the deceased said the seat was so very hard he could not sleep. The last time witness took particular notice of the deceased was about 5 o'clock, when he offered him a light. Shortly be fore the train nulled Newark witness and Dr. Lowe were dozing, being very tired. Suddenly he heard a report or crack, which caused him to start. Hie first impression was that some part of the machinery was broken. Before he had time to think the deceased tell on the bottom of the carriage with his head on witness's knee, blood gushing over the seat on which he was sitting. Witness exclaimed " Good God, the Frenchman has shot himself." Dr. Lowe immediately waved his hat to attract the attention of the guard. Death was instantaneous, he never groaned or moved, and a small pistol was hanging on his finger. He seemed to be perf.ctly collected all the way from Berwick, and was smoking tinietly. On arriving at the Newark station they called to the guard and the body was removed. jury a r y e t h u i r s ne ? d w. s mind." na but there was no evidence show tne state of in life, - de ff c er a e se ' d t t h o e o took v A e l r t d e i r c t 0 thoetrheevtiffdeehetee"lethadatbieheee A Ladleful of " Punch."

The Prince of Wales went to K-,w yesterday, and visited her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cam bridge. His Royal Highness was attended by Lieut.• General Knollys and Captain Grey. Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, attended by the Marchioness of Carmarthen, took a drive in an open carriage. Prince Alfred in Scotland. Prince Alfred, in company with some of the ofii csrs of the RiCOOD, now lying in the Tay, went on shore on Monday, and visited some of the public places in Dundee. Some of the calers visited the Exchange, and in their progress along the streets, one of them, who bears a resemblance to the Prince, was mistaken for him, and followed by large crowds. The Prince in passing along the High-street with his companions, was so pressed upon by crowds anxious to see him that he took shelter fora minute or two in the shop of Mr. Langiands, bookseller. A proposal was made to get a carriage, but the Prince declined this, and with his brother caters walked to the station of the Perth railway, to which city the party had taken tickets. A special meeting of the Dundee Town Council was held on Monday, when it was unanimously agreed to present Prince Alfred with the freedom of the burgh, eta meeting to be held in the Town Hill. on Wednesday, if his royal highness would consent to this; or, if not, to present an address to him by the council. A depu tation, consisting of Provost Parker, Bailie Owen, and Dean of Guitd Kennedy, was appointed to wait upon the Prince in regard to this matter, His royal highness, accompanied by Major• Cowell, Count Gleichen, commander, and several ,fficers of the Racofszt, arrived at Stirling in the arternoon, via Perth. Having visited Stirling Castle on foot, his royal highness and party took luncheon in the Golden Lion Hotel, and left by the Edin burgh train at 5 o'clock, arriving at 6 20. As the train for the north did not leave till 6.45, the Prince in the brief interval took a walk along a portion of Princes-street and through St. Andrew-square. His royal highness was plainly dressed in a dark grey shooting suit, and his presence was not recog nised except by a few persons, so that there was no inconvenient crowding either in the streets or at the station. On reaching Granton, the party went on board the ferry boat and took their seats in the saloon, apparently unobserved by the passengers, and, on arriving at Burntisland they had reached the platform before they were recognised, and then only by a small number of the passengers. His royal highness was looking well, and appeared to enjoy his excursion. THE DUCHESS OF CAMBRIDGE'S FETE AT KEW. —Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge gave an elegant entertainment yesterday evening at Cam bridge Cottage, Kew. The fete was originally intended on the part of the duchess to receive their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales at her suburban residence. Unfortunately the unexpected demise of the Hereditary Prince of Denmark prevented her Royal Highness's at tendance on the occasion. Their Highnesses the Prince and Princess Driabynski and suite have left the Brunswick, Jermyn street, for Paris. The Marchioness of Sligo's dance will take place on Thursday, the 9th inst. The Countess of Derby will have an evening party on Monday, the 13th inst. The Right Hon. Sir Charles Wood, M.P., and Mr.,C. L.

Sir James Scarlett, the Lord Chief Justice, Sir Richard Airey, General Forster, General L. D. Williams, General Lawren son, &c. LUDGATE-HILL RAILWAY VlADUCT.—Notwith st ending numerous►y signed pe:ltions and a strong force of objection which has been brought to bear against this undertaking, it has triumphed, and active measures are in progress for ils construction. Several old• established shopkeepers in Ludgate-hill have received notice to quit, and some of them have al. eady vacated their premises. The persons who will have to leave are, on the north side— Messrs. Treloar, Hibberd, Marshall, Photographic Com pany, and Barraclough; and on the north side—Messrs. Baker and Sons, Rough, Bates and Son, and J. R. Jill lick. In one or two instance the amounts of compensation has not been settled, but it is believed that this will be done in a few days. The outline of the scheme at present is, for No. 1 London, Chatham, and. Dover Railway Bill to go to Fleet -lane, and No. 2 Bill, from Fleet-lane to the Junction of the Metropolitan Railway. It is contemplated that the works will be completed in twelve months.—Building News.

SALLY LUNNS !—Mr. Gronow, cabing some half century ago on the Countess of Buckingh a m at Pim- lico :—"Duting my visit," he writes in - his anecdotes, "chocolate and tea-cakes were served to our party, when Lady Harrington related a curious anecdote about those cakes. She said her friend Madame de Narbonne, during the emigration, determined not to live upon the bounty of foreigners, found means to amass money enough to enable her to open a shop in Chelsea, not far from the then fash ionable balls of Ranelagh. It had been the custom in France, before the Revolution, for young ladies in some noble families to learn the art of making preserves and pas try ; accordingly, Madame de Narbonne commenced her operations under the auspices of some of her acquaintances ; and all those who went to Ranelagh made a point of stop.. ping and buying some of her cakes. Their lame spread like lightning throughout the West End, and orders were given to have them sent for breakfast and tea in many great houses in the neighbourhood of St. James's. Madame de Narbonne employed a Scotch maid servant t o execute her orders. The name of this woman was " Sally Lunn," and ever since a particultt r kind of tea-cake has g,,ne by that name." [Ail which story, however, is a mere fable I The original Sally Lunn, the fitst maker of the tea cakes so called, having bean a farmer's wife in Yorkshire ] SOUTHAMPTON, Wednesday. --The Hamburg- American Company's screw steamship Borussia, C.ptain P.
