In another sense than is usually attached to the familiar words, we might say, fas est ab haste doceri. Look ing to—what is certainly on the cards—the possible Change of Ministers, the Reviewer asks : "Does anybody mean to say that the country would suffer by a change which restored Sir John Pakington and General Peel, Mr. Henley, Mr. Walpole, Sir Fitzroy Kelly, Sir Hugh Cairns, and Lord Stanley, to the pests which they formerly oc cupied ? Granting [which we don't!] that Sir Roundell Palmer is as good a man in his way as Sir Hugh Cairns, and that Sir Cornewall Lewis was as good a war Minister as General Peel, is there any comparison between the Duke of Somerset and Sir John Pakington, between Mr. Hutt and Mr. Henley, between Sir George Grey and Mr. Wal pole, between Sir Charles Wood and Lord Stanley, between Sir William Atherton and Sir Fitzroy Kelly ?" Alluding to the rumoured differences among the Leaders of the Opposition, the writer remarks quite positively,—" Lord Derby and Mr. Disraeli are perfectly united and any faction in the Conservative ranks which opposes the will of Lord Derby, must not only be powerless for evil, but must, we feel certain, consist only of such members as the party could well spare." What is then observed in regard to that said faction, we would here commend to the par ticular attention of the petty leaders of it—the re viewer, speaking of them, in fact, plainly enough as follows :—" We readily admit that there is such a faction—that it numbers about twelve members—and that they are without exception the dullest, deafest, and blindest of the whole party. They can make a great noise ; fools generally can. They are made much of by the friends of Government, and in that there is nothing to surprise us. They are flat tered by it. But their influence and ability are ridiculously magnified by those whose purpose it suits to see in them a strong detachment, and one able to perplex the whole party. They affect, forsooth, the airs of the October Club which so vexed the last Ministry of Anne. They are like the grasshoppers, so well described by Mr. Burke, whose importunate chinck ' makes the field ring, while the nobler creatures round them are contemp tuously silent, and see them no other than they are, ' the little shrivelled, meagre, hopping, though loud and troublesome, insects of the hour." Another excerpt from this remarkable paper upon " The Conservative Party" in the first number (May,1863) of The New Review we are tempted to give : but with this quotation from the Opposition Manifesto we shall rest contented. It is a tribute from the Country Gentlemen of England —a tribute well deserved at their hands by reason of the many long years of brilliant and arduous service in their behalf as the foremost man amongst them all—a tri bute offered to and nobly merited by the Leader of her Majesty's Opposition in the House of Commons. "What Mr. DISRAELI," says the Reviewer, "has shown in spite of certain petty factions to be noticed presently, is an extraordinary aptitude for keeping a great party together, and inspiring it with confidence in himself. This fact, alone, testifies to his possession of great Parliamentary talents. His speeches attest his eloquence; his writings his political sagacity. The former are marked by a vein of curious gene ralisation, and by that art of expressing the results of long observation and the conclusions of native good sense in terse and striking apothegms, which is almost peculiar to himself among the statesmen of the day, and lends to his oratory a remarkable and enduring influence. The latter show a study of the English constitution in a thoroughly inde pendent spirit, and tending to original results. A statesman who has thought so deeply on our history and institutions ; who, at the same time, brings to the transaction of ordinary business so much prac tical acuteness, and to the discussion of more serious subjects so much impressive eloquence, is not to be found every day. And whatever his faults—and he is not without them—they are wholly unable to detract from these great qualities, or to force them below that point which is the standard for the highest class of Ministers." The Tribute thus paid to Mr. DISRAELI, in the name of the Party of which he is, and has for so many years past been, the Leader in the British House of Commons, will ba recognised as just by others besides those enrolled under the banners of the Opposition.

Yesterday's sitting of the Prussian Chamber of Deputies shows the truth of all that has been said about the Convention. It is useless to make ex cuses when facts are against them, and the King of PRUSSIA and his Ministers had better come Toward boldly and declare their intention of supporting Russia, instead of saying one thing to the Cham ber of Deputies, and writing the contrary to foreign Powers. The whole conduct of Prussia in this affair has been most underhand. At Mon day's sitting in the Chamber of Deputies Count von ET:LENBERG, in reply to Herr von CARLOWITZ, said " that Russian troops had passed the Prussian fron tier. They had been billeted, as it appeared, by private arrangement, and no objection seemed to have been raised by the Prussian au thorities. He, at least, was aware of none. As to the disarmament of fugitive Russian troops, such a measure was not required by law, and no Cabinet order to that effect had been issued. There was nothing of an extraordinary character in the whole proceeding." When a member of the Cabinet speaks in this manner there is little room left for justice to hope for. It is really lamentable that such a state of things should occur, and the libsral-minded Prussians, both in the Chamber and throughout the country, are greatly to be pitied at such decadence in the credit of their Constitution. A greater mistake wa s never made than to take up the cause of Russian tyranny, as it has been done by Herr Von BISMARK and his friends. They are greatly injuring their Sove reign, they are stultifying their country's progress, and they are disgracing themselves before the eyes of all European nations. It is a contradiction in terms to aver that their country possesses a free constitution, and then aid and abet to the atmost of their power the greatest despotism that the world contains. The actions of the Russians to the Poles, their whole policy towards them, is the record of as sawcruel a tyranny a s any c e e v f u e , and it is renderedirl y the fact that it is perpetrated in an enlightened century and surrounded 'oy civi lised nations. Prussia might just as well send an armed force to the field against the Poles as to adopt these covert measures, which, in the end, prove more deleterious to the cause of the patriots. They have on several occasions defeated their ad. versaries in open combat, but it is most difficult, if not altogether impossible, to baffle the machi nations of conventions and subvert the efforts of those who work in the dark.

Discretion is certainly the better part of valour with her MAJESTY'S Ministers. Mr. GLADSTONE— Iike the embodiment of COLLIN s' Oda to the Pe ssions —" back recoils [though by the way the right hon. gentleman does know why] even at the sound him self has made!" The proposition, coolly put forth in the Budget, for the taxation of charities, Mr. GLADSTONE as coolly withdraws last evening in committee. He has a wholesome qualm upon him as to the result of anysdivisicn. Not intentionally —under the circumstances, for as Mr. HENLEY drily remarked immediately after the speech of the Prime Minister, "as the noble lord had spoken o the feeling of small associations or of local associa. tions," we would just say (with Mr. HENLEY) that we believe "they c)rnprise the whole country—be cause," said the quaint old hnmourist, "the wholeis made up of piir: . s." Now, looking back to this rather long-winded discussion last evening in the House of Commons in regard to this bungling propoition of Mr. GLADSTONE'S for the taxation of charities, through a heartless little clause in his Budget (a clause now miserably withdrawn)—looking back to the discussion of all this in the House of Com mons yesterday, and turning to the speech, already alluded to, as having fallen towards the close of it from the lips of Lord PALMERSTON, what, as usual, do we find there ? Well, according to what is fast becoming the all but invariable circumstance noticeable in the speeches of Lord PALMERSTON, we find the noble viscount's remarks frequent:37 interrupted with parenthetical intima tions of "laughter," " renewed laughter," and so forth, Grave cr gay, sad, serious, or grotesque, an after dinner speech at the Royal Academy, an inaugural address to a learned University, a pro posal of a toast to the Ladies of Scotland, an argu ment as to certain charities that it has been sug gested by one of his colleagues should be ground down under a now scheme of petty taxation —'w hat ever the occasion, whatever the therm, so soon as Lord PALMERSTON opens his lips (he himself all the while now fast getting on for eighty) there is laughter, loud laughter, renewed laughter ! As we said yesterday—mainly, if not exclusively for the sake of this laughter, in consideration of the vivacity and honhommie of Lord PALMERSTON the Ministry otherwise, in regard to Reform and matters of that kind, utterly useless) is simply just tolerated. So that actually—remembering the merriment which is thus being continually provoked by the one popular Minister, in the midst of his unpopular colleagues —the Government of this great empire is now being carried on upon the simple principle of Grin and Bear it ! Rather a ludicrous state of things, surely, when the actual situation of affairs comes to be looked into. All the more contemptible in its way, more over, when think for a moment of the war, still to this instant, and for a long while past, ragi n e. 6 America (a war that Eng land may yet be dragged into), and of the Revolution in Poland that may eventually re sult in a general embroilment of the great Powers of Europe—England amongst them. Contrasting very strikingly, i ndeed, with the careless whimsicality of the Premier and the dull dead weight of his do-nothing colleagues —one can not but be constrained into seriousness, and into a hope at least of something like earnest action on the part of our Statesmen—upon reading in the initial number of the new monthly organ of her MAJESTY'S Opposition—No. 1 of The New .Review•—• What may, in some respects, be regarded, we presurf.e, as a formal manifesto pat forth in the name of that Opposition. To ries, though w e are not, Liberals though we are to the back-bone, to Reformers, Economists, the very heart's core, but listen w t Frye Traders, we cannot a po it've sense of reFef to what it is ti a this new mouthpiece of her MAJESTY'S Opposition has to say, In manly seriousness, in the midst of the silly frivolities of our aged Prime Minister, end of the dull do-nothings of his colleagues in her MA JESTY'S Government. Turning cur regard from this do-nothing po!icy of Ministers--turning out' attention from this incessant frl7olity of tone notice- We see with regret that the motion for recommit ting the Albert Bridge Bill was thrown out in the House of Lords. It may be remembered that the committee, after hearing evidence on the side of the objectors, intimated to the promoters of the bill that their witnesses were not required, and these gentlemen were consequently surprised to learn subsequently that the committee had arrived at decision adverse to their wishes. The question of the tolls seems to have occasioned some difficulty, but if further evidence had been heard, it would have appeared that the promoters were ready to in troduce a clause into the bill to enable the public to redeem the tolls on the bridge on the payment of the cost of the bridge and 10 per cent. interest. The committee diverged from the main point into indefinite generalities, saying in their report that they considered the whole question of bridge accommodation should be brought under the consideration of some public depart ment, with a view to the eventual abolition of the toll system. As Lord CHELMSFORD justly observed, a similar report was made by a select committee some years ago, without pro ducing any effect up to the present day. Be cause the toll system is justly disapproved of, and its-speedy abolition is in every way desirable, that is no reason why the public are to to lose a substantial advantage. Certainly, if there is no bridge there can be no toll to pay, but it is absurd to expect that private individuals or companies are to expend their money on matters of public conveni ence. If the Government erect a bridge all well and good, let it be flee by all means. But if we are to take advantage of private enterprise we must surely repay the promoters. To this day Waterloo-bridge, one of the finest that span our river, is subject to a toll. The late beautiful suspension-bridge at Hun gerford imposed a similar tax on passengers. Ac cording to the calculations made, the increased value of the property around would have defrayed the cost of the bridge in four years. For this short interval, then, it was surely not worth while to oppose the construction of so great a public conve nience. There is no doubt that the bridge in ques tion is greatly needed. Battersea old• bridge impedes navigation seriously by its defective construction, and the sooner it is replaced by a strong and well built bridge the better. The opposition made to the motion seemed to take its stand mainly on a point of honour—that, as thecommittee of the Home had come to the conclusion in question, it would be deroga tory to their lordships to reverse it. But, however great the consideration due to points of etiquette, they should not be suffered to stand in the way of the public service; and if a committee has decided on the hearing of ex parte evidence, it is but right that they should be asked to reconsider that deci sion. If there is now fresh evieence to be heard cn the matter, it should surely be listened to and given a fair hearing. According to Lord CHELMSFORD ; the only opposition offered to the new scheme is on the part of the proprietors of Battersea old bridge, a ricketty struo ture, which probably fears the proximity o another new rival. It is worth noticing that not withstanding the strong opposition of Lord rAUNTON, late Chairman of the Committee, to the motion, Lord BE Ros, who was upon it, expressed his hope that the bill would be recommitted, as he understood that much additional evi- deuce would be brought in its favour. The same side was taken by the Earl of DER/3Y, who remarked that as the corn. mittee appeared to have rejected the bill on a point on which no evidence was taken and no counsel heard, he thought their lordships would do well to order its recommittal. Lord GRANVILLE, while exonerating the cimmittee from blame, thought that the bridge would be very advantage ous, and was therefore anxious that its cause should be again heard. Lord TAUNTON on this changed the ground of his opposition, and stood upon the infringement of the dignity of the Lordships' House, All arguments were unavailing, and the motion was throwu out by a majority of 11. There still remains the possibility of referring the bill to another corm mittee ; and we hope t hat, on the principle of Audi aileron partem, this will be shortly done, and the public allowed to judge for themselves the true state of the case. 'he Brutality of Manners of Peter (called, the Great! He was an irredeemable savage—says the Spectator—reigning over a people but one degree less bloodthirsty than himself. The Czar had been absent in Belgium but returned post haste on in telligence of the revolt meditated by the Strelitz, Ile Czar held a feast on the day of the New Year, tat September, and invited among his nobles some common sailors, " with whom the Czar repeatedly mixed, divided apples, even honouring one of them by calling him brother." All this while the Court barber was shaving such of the guests as wore the beard, and the refractory were punished by repeated boxes on the ear. At the very first dinner to the Embassy his Majesty told the Polish Envoy, jesting on his fatness, " It was not in Poland, but here in Moscow, that you crammed yourself," a low-bred hit at the free maintenance the Czar gave to all Ambassadors. Then, quarrelling with the General. in -Chief, he left the room, questioned the private soldiers as to his misdeeds, and returning, "drew his sword and facing the General-in-Chief, horrified the guests with this threat, 'By striking thus I will mar thy mal-go7ernment.' Boiling over with well grounded anger, he appealed to Prince Romadonowski and to Dumno Mikitim Mosciwicz, but finding them excuse the General-in-Chief, he grew so hot that he startled all the guests by strik ing right and left, he knew not where, with his drawn sword. lines Romadonowski had to com plain of a cut finger, and another of a Blight wound on the head. Mikitim Mosciwicz was hurt in the hand as the sword was returning from a stroke. A blow far more deadly was aiming at the General-in- Chief." He was saved by General Lefort, the Czar's tutor, and probably the only man he ever loved, but his master's affection did not save him from a " hard blo k w o ff o n d t a h n e c ibnagc with hs Another swor d evening seei taughtn g Mheinm to lay it aside "by inflicting a box, to the force of which the blood that spouted abundantly from his nose bore witness." On another occasion, while General Lefort was giving a dinner to the Envoy and the Czar, Peter, annoyed by the quarrelling of two of the guests, high nobles cf the Court, threat ened them with immediate death, and violently struck his host for attempting to mitigate his fury. A marriage will take place early in June be tween Mr. T. IV. Wilson, late of The Grove, near Newcaslle-under•Lyne, nephew of Sir E. Colt, Bart., and Ida Grosvenor Heathcote, second daughter of Mr. Frank Heathcote, of Mountfield House, Eling, Hants, and first cousin of Lord Aveland, of Normanton Park. Another marriage will also take place, shortly afterwards, between ys Mr. Lyttl eton Powys, Maurice, eldest son of the Rev. E.

A blot has been put on her annals that will tarnish her glory whenever that page of the historian is read, that chronicle these transactions in the Polish insurrection. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) FRANCE.

The sole management of this theatre has passed into the hands of Mr. George Vining, and his first venture, namely, the engagement of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean for a series of performances, previous to their departure for Australia, bids fair to be a great and decided success. In the stalls and boxes, last night, there was a brilliant array of rank and fashion, while the democratic element mustered in such force in pit and galleries as to prove how great is the inte rest which all classes of the community equally feel in the worthy performance of the Shak sperian drama, and how wide-spread is the popularity which the most eminent expo nents of that drama have deservedly acquired. The piece chosen for the opening night was "Hamlet,"and the reception of Mr. and Mrs. Kean on their ap pearance in the second scene was most enthusiastic. The cordial welcome seemed to make a deep impres sion on the gifted pair, and on no occasion have we ever seen them act with greater skill and power. It is only necessary to say of Mr. Kean's Hamlet that he acted the part with all that extraordinary effect which has rendered his conception of the Royal Dane so famous. From beginning to end the audience watched for every gesture, and hailed every old point with the greatest enthusiasm. As Queen Gertrude, Mrs. Kean still indicates her fine perception and delicate feeling of character, for in her hands that which has been looked upon as a part of second ary importance rises to the dignity of true art. Her performance is still, as ever, di 3tin. guished by vigour and refinement, and by its re markable combination of profound passion, with queenly majesty and grace. Ophelia was delicately played by Miss Chapman ; and Messrs. Marston, Cathcart, and Everitt sustained the respective parts of the Ghost, Laettes, and Horatio, with much excel lence. At the conclusion of the play the applause was quite extraordinary, and a m ore grat if y i ng ca ll Mr. and Mrs. Kean never received at this or any other theatre. The engagement cannot be prolonged over 1 nights, as Mr. and Mrs. Kean have to appear a Liverpool on Monday, the 18th. ST. JAMES'S THEATRE, A new comedietta was produced at this theatre last night, entitled 4 , The Little S en ti ne l ;" th e c hi e f merit of which is that it enables Miss Maria Wilton to give us another sample of the exquisite art with which she converts her charming vivacity into artistic effect. Placed by her absent brother to watch over a widow lady (Miss Cottrell) very much given to flirting, she circumvents the attempts of two male coquettes; the one a foolish cfficer (Mr. Gaston Murray), the other a silly old-fashioned fellow (Mr. S. Johnson), and after teasing and annoying them in every way, she makes them ridi culous by drawing them into a flirtation with her self; but she is herself shown to be vulnerable, when her own lover, a young farmer (Mr. C. Fen ton), turns the device upon her and excites her jealousy. The absent lover returning, man iage ends all further complexity. The house was wall attended, and there is an ex cellent company of performers now collected, which if provided with really good novelties, cannot fail to continue and extend the popularity of this elegant and fashionable little theatre.

Rothschild having offered 1021, was the highest bidder. "It is easy to be convinced upon reading these documents that they open a path to projects of conciliation, and that they contain the basis of negociations likely to lead to a common understand ing between the different courts now seeking the means of upholding the legitimate interests of Poland." COLONIAL. TEA.—There has been a moderate amount 'of business transacted, and prices generally are well maintained, par ticularly for superior descriptions. SUGAR —The market has been dull; late quotations, however, are current for good grocery qualities. In the refined market full rates are demanded, owing to the seve ral supplies on offer. CorrEn.—Business has been moderately active, the de mand for exportation having slightly increased, and full rates are obtained for all descriptions. RICE.—For the better qualities of East Indian there has beem more inquiry, and late prices are sustained. SALTPETRE.--Business has been inactive, and the few bargains entered into were at about former rates. TALLOW. —The market has been much depressed, and the recent advance in prices has been, in a great measure, lost, owing to the more favourable dews entertained with regard to toe American and Polish questions.

OSBORNE, May 4. His Royal Highness Prince Louis of Hesse re turned from Loudon yesterday. The Queen and Princess Louis walked in the grounds this morning. His Royal Highness Prince Arthur, attended by Major Elphinstone, left Osborne this morning for Greenwich Park. The Prince and Princess of Wales. The Princ© of Wales rode on horseback yesterday morning, attended by Major Teesdale. In the afternoon his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, accompanied by the Duke of St. AlbanE, visited the House of Commons, end remained i❑ the Ambassadors' Gallery for about a hour, during which time the Chancellor of the Exchequer was speaking on the proposition of the Government to tax charitable foundations. Earlier in the evening her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, attended by the Countess de Grey and Ripon, and by Lady Charlotte Lennox, also visited the house, and re mained in the Ladies' Gallery for some time. Her royal highness left shortly after six o'clock. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales honoured with their presence last evening the performance of the Philharmonic Concert at the Hanover-square Rooms. Their Royal Highnesses were attended by the Countess of Macclesfield, the Hon. Mrs. Stoner, Lord Harris, Lord Alfred Hervey, Mr. Charles L. Wood, and Major Tees dale. Intended Visit of the Prince and Princess to the City. Some weeks ago an invitation was given to the Prince and Princess of Wales by the Corporation of the City of London to partake of the hospitalities of the city on the occasion of their marriage, leaving it to their Royal Highnesses to choose the fete that would be most agreeable to them. Yesterday the Lore. Mayor received a communication to the effect that the Prince and Princess will honour with their presence a ball at Guildhall on the evening of the Ist of June. This gracious intimation has afforded the civic authoritie s the greatest joy, and they will proceed to make the requisite preparations forth with. With that view a special meeting of the Entertainment Committee has been summoned for to-morrow, and it will readily be imagined that the reception of their Royal Highnesses will be alike worthy of these august personages and of the Cor poration. It so happens that at present the whole area of Guildhall is occupied by a mass of scaffold ing erected preparatory to the removal of the roof, and the substitution of an open one in oak, more in harmony with the edifice. It is matter for regret that the work could not be executed in time for the auspicious occasion of the Royal visit. It has scarcely, indeed, been begun, and the scaffolding will be removed without delay to allow of the arrangements being made for the approaching fete. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO BALMORAL.—It is not as yet definitively arranged what day this month the Queen and some of the youthful members of the royal family leave for Balmoral to pass a few weeks at the royal Highland residence. The 12th instant was originally stated, but now the 14th is named. The Austrian Ambassador and the Countess Apponyi entertained the following company at dinner last evening :—Prince Ysenburg, the Spanish Mini ster and Madame Comyn, the Saxon Minister, Maria Mar chioness of Ailesbury, Viscount and Viscountess Palmer ston, Lord Stanley of Alderley, , Count Pahlen, Count Kalnoky, Mr. Henry Greville, and Sir Anthony and Lady de Rothschild. The Duke of Cleveland is detained in Paris by a cold, which we are informed is of a trivial nature. The serious aspect which rumour gave to his grace's indisposi tion is without foundation. The Duke of Sutherland arrived at Stafford House, St. James's, yesterday, from Lilleshall, Salop. The duchess and family remain in the country until the latter etd of the ensuing week. The Duchess (Dowager) of Sutherland leaves town to-day for Cliefden, near Maidenhead, where a select circle of friends will be received by her grace for the re mainder of the week. The Earl of Normanton, Earl Nelson, and Mr. Herbert Agar have arrived at Seamore-place, Mayfair. The Earl Spencer, who has been confined at Althorp Hall by illness, and consequently has been unable to attend upon the Prince of Wales as Groom of the Stole to his royal highness, was much better yesterday. The illness of the noble earl has been more serious than was first announced, for, in addition to a very severe cold, his lord ship has been suffering from bronchitis. However, he is now pronounced convalescent, and will return to town on regaining his strength to resume his duties in the House hold of the Prince of Wales. The Earl of Rosalyn end Lady Harriett St. Clair have arrived at Claridge's Hotel from Nice, for the season. Lady Harry Vane had a dancing party last night at her ladyship's residence, Grosvenor-place houses. Lady Molesworth entertained at dinner last even ing, at her residence in Eaton-place, the Marchioness of Ely, the Countess of Desart, Viscount Torrington, Lord and Lady Wodehouse, Count Wimpffen, the Viscount de Beaumont, Baron Alfred de Rothschild and Miss de Roths child, Colonel the Hon. Strange Jocelyn and Hon. Mrs. Jocelyn, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Baring, Mr. and Mrs. Higgins, Mr. Gregory, M.P , Mr. and Mrs. Henry Petre, and Mr. Hayward, The Sisters of St. Vincent de Paul. " J. 0.," in a letter to a contemporary, says : To-day and to-morrow, through the kindness of the officers of the 2d Regiment of Life Guards, a bazaar will be held in their riding school, at Knightsbridge, for the purpose of collecting funds for the support of the infant schools which the Sisters of St. Vin cent de Paul have at last succeeded in establishing among the destitute Irish population of West minster. It is needless that I should trespass on your valu able space in order to praise these admirable women ; or that I should dwell upon the humanity and utility of the laborious task for which they have thus volunteered. The names of his Royal High ness the Duke of Cambridge, of Lord Clyde, and of Sir James Scarlett, which appear at the bead of the long list of their supporters published in your columns, sufficiently prove the estimation in which these sisters of charity are held by those who have had practical opportunities of judging of the value of their services. It has, however, been suggested to me that if I were to ask you to publish these few lines in a pro minent position in your columns the public in gene ral might be reminded of the opportunity thus afforded them of showing that the perils encoun- tered and the good deeds done by these Roman Catholic Sisters on behalf of our wounded so.diers and seamen have not been forgotten. I therefore beg of you to do so. The Forthcoming International Dog-Show. The patronage which his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has intimated his intention of be stowing on the forthcoming International Dog Snow, appointed to take place in the intervening week between the ensuing Epsom and Ascot Races, at the Agricultural Hall, Islington, has had the effect of causing a very large number of the aris tocracy to make entries also, and to become compe titors with his Royal Highness in sporting and other cogs, which it is now understood he too intends ex hibiting. Amongst those who have made entries during the last few days are the Earl of Derby, the Duke of Beaufort, Earl Craven, Lord Berners, Lady Evelyn Bruce, Sir J. Carnac, Mr. Hanbury, Capt. Brock, and large numbers of the best known sporting men in the kingdom. Some very great curiosities are stated to be entered in the foreign classes, a large number of entries having been received of animals to be exhibited previously to the Paris dog show, and for the purpose of still further accommodating those who are to bring their specimens from distant parts, the period for making entries has been extended to May 11. The show is, it appears, to consist of two divisions and 66 classes, namely, dogs used in field sports, and dogs not used in field sperts. THE CHURCH RATES DIVISION, AS REFLECTED IN " THE MIRROR." The Speaker proceeded to put the question, It was now about five o'clock. The benches were over crowded, and the " whips" were übiquitous. The hackneyed character of a church-rate debate has driven a number of menaers to the " subterranean regions" adjacent to the river terrace. As soon as the bell rings for a division, a dense crowd of mem bers pours into the lobby and enters the house, up to the moment when the last sand in the minute glass run out. The Speaker again put the question. It is well understood on these occasions that the first contest on a division is one of relative strength of lungs. The Ayes try to out-shout the Noes, and the Noes in turn seek to convey the idea that the voice of the Ayes is but the whisper of a faction. The country gentlemen generally gain this victory, and to-day is no exception to the rule. The friends of the bill cry Aye ! with something of factitious vehemence—it is a sudden burst of sound that no operatic composer has ever rivalled. But the ex plosion of Noes is as the bellowing of a herd of bulls,—mighty, deep-mouthed, sonorous, indignant, and protesting. "Ayes to the right; Noes to the left," says the Speaker," " Tellers for the Ayes, Sir• John —." The rest of the sentence is lost in the confusion and hubbub. The gangway are at this moment filled as by bees, and slowly, on ac count of the press, the friends and opponents of the bill file off, up and down the floor, to the two lobbies. It is long before the tellers can make their report to the Speaker —never heard except by a teller or a stranger--" The House is clear, Sir." The Speaker makes the usual rejoinder, " The tellers may pro ceed to tell." The clergymen and Dissenting minis ters in the galleries draw a deep, breath, and await the issue in great excitement. A few members enter the House after the division ; then comes a steady stream from both lobbies, until by degrees the House becomes densely filled, and an almost impassable crowd collects behind the Speaker's chair, and below the bar, so that the respective tellers can hardly force their way through to the table. By a singular circumstance, the tellers for the Noes first present themselves to the clerk, who with pen and slip of paper is ready to make the usual memorandum, to be handed, in due time, to the senior teller of the victorious party. It is generally assumed that those who have fewest votes to count will be first at the table, and, for a few moments, the friends of the bill make them selves pretty sure of a triumph. But the tellers for the Ayes are seen marching up the floor from the bar. They go to the table and whisper to the clerk. This is the critical instant. If the Ayes have it, the paper will be banded to Sir J. Tre lawny. It is handed to Colonel Taylor, and a deafening shout is sent up from the Conservative benches. It is continued as the tellers range them selves on the floor, and prolonged even when they come to the table, so that a few moments elapse before the extent of Colonel Taylor's victory is ascertained. At length he announces the numbers. in a clear loud voice : Ayes . Noes Majority against the bill .. —lO This is progress; and again and again the reite rated cheers of the Opposition ring through the House. The Speaker, according to custom, repeats the numbers, whereupon the cheers break out with renewed vigour, until it occurs to the victorious army that others are entitled to rejoice with them over the discomfiture of the Abolitionists. There is, thereupon, a rush to the clubs and the telegraph offices ; and many a rector and vicar in cathedral city and distant country town receives the welcome news as he sits down to dinner, that the obnoxious Church Rate Abolition Bill is again thrown out— this time by a majority of ten. TAXATION OF CHARTIIES, One of the most numerous and influential deputations within our recollection waited upon :he Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday afternoon, at his official residence, Downing-street, for the purpose of "respectfully urging the withdrawal of the proposed measure for extending the in come tax to charities." Nearly 250 noblemen, members of Parliament, and official representatives of the charities in town and country were present, many of whom could no! gain admission to the room in which the interview took place, and the ordinary solitude of Downing -street was ex changed for the bustle of Fleet street at midday. His Royal Highness the Duke at CAMBRIDGE introduced the deputation in the following terms am re quested by a very large body of gentlemen connected with the charities in this country to introduce this deputation to you. I appear myself as the President of Christ's Hospital, and we are requested to express our regret with respect to the proposal you have made in regard to the extension of the income tax to public charit'es. As there are other gentlemen here who will speak on other charities, I shall confine myself to Christ's Hospital. The measure you propose will very much circumscribe our means of doing good. Our institution will have to pay £2,000 a-year, and that will take from us the power of providing for 40 boys. Then, again, the Hetherington Charity is another in stitution with which I am connected, and which will also suffer from this tax. That charity grants annuities to the blind, and one of two courses will only be open to us. we must either restrict the number of the annuities, or reduce the amount paid to the annuitants, The latter course we could not think of taking; but if we did it would make a charge upon the incomes of these poor people, which range from £lO to £2O a year. In the time of Pitt these incomes were exempt, and that exemption Sir R. Peel continued when he imposed the income tax. To tax chari ies now would be to introduce a new principle, and tt.is being the case, you will feel that we have ground for making a strong remonstrance against such a course. I therefore hope you will reconsider this matter, with a view to continuing the exemption at present accorded the charities. Mr. TURNER (Treasurer of Guy's Hospital) read a me morial, which embodied reasons against the measure. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said he appeared as the representative of the Clergy Orphan Corporation and the Sons of the Clergy Corporation, to advocate the cause of the widow and the orphan. He need not enter into the hard ship of the case after what had been stated by his Royal Highness, and more fully set forth in the memorial. The Sons of the Clergy Corporation had three objects in view— to grant assistance to aged and infirm clergymen in embar rassed circumstances, to grant aid to those who were in dis tressed circumstances through no fault of their own, and to apprentice the children of clergymen in distress. There were 1,530 recipients from this charity, and it the tax was enforced they must either reduce the number of these reci pients, or diminish the amount granted to them. The first was impossible, for they could not cut oft 75 widows from their means of support, and therefore the only alternative would be to reduce the allowances. With regard to the Clergy Orphan Corporation, they would be compelled to diminish the number of orphans, and what would become of them if they were sent back into the world without friends or home P They might become outcasts and lost characters. He hoped the right hon. gentlemen would listen to the cry of the widow and the orphan, and give up his proposed tax on charitable institutions. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply, said— Your Grace, and your Royal Highness, my Loras and Gen• tlemen, I am not sure :hat I entirely understand the pur pose of this great meeting, rather than deputation, with the attendance of which to-day I have been honoured beyond all precedent of those who have held the office which I now unworthily fill. It is essentially a meeting of reasoning on one side, and the very circumstances of the case would ren- der it impossible for me to state the grounds on which my self and my colleagues have decided on the proposal that it will be my duty this night to lay before the house. The meeting will believe that they will have no expectation of having the measure carried by influence apart from reason ing. So far as it is lawful and convenient to distinguish between influence and reasoning it will be done, and I may say that the result will not be antagonistic to the meeting to-day. This proposal is not made in a time of public pres sure, but in a time when the proposers and not the adver saries of the measure are most likely to suffer. From the addresses I have heard, and the memorial which has been read to me, I am convinced this question has not been suffi ciently before the public mind, and is not thoroughly un derstood by the public at large. Yet this is act a measure that ought to be carried by influence. It will be my duty to explain thy reasons upon which I have made the propo sal in another place. We shall refer the matter to the con sideration of the House of Commons, and I shall state to the House of Commons what I have stated here—that we shall not press it but with the freest sanction of that house. I wish to state to you that under the name of charities are gathered together an infinite diversity of bequests of diffe- rent kinds, and I wish to know from your Itoyal Highness, or any of the representatives of the deputation, if I am to understand that as to everything falling within the descrip tion of a charity it is their (led] e that Parliament sbouid continue their exemption of taxation of all kinds, and by so continuing, make itself a party to the maintenance of all each institutions ? The Duke of CAMBRIDGE—Under what head do you classify the institutions ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I do not here in tend to class them, but I want to know it' it is your wish in simpliciter to exempt them from taxation. . (tlear.) The Duke of CAMBRIDGE—That question I am not pre pared to answer, but, as far as I understand, I apprehend that we do intend it should be so. (hear.) The depuration then withdrew, Amalgamation of the City with the llietr politan Police Force. PUBLIC MEETING (THIS DAY). A very large public meeting was held this afternoon, the Guildhall, for the purpose of affording the citizens London an opportunity of expressing their disapprobat ic of s Bill introduced into Parliament by Sir G. Grey, ti Home Secretary, for Amalgamating the City with the .1* tropolitan Police Force. Nearly every member of tl Corporation was present. The LORD MAYOR presided, and expressed a hope th' the meeting would succee d i n prevent i ng t h e passing of bill which was an invasion of the privileges of the City' London. The following are the resolutions to be proposed, wil l° will doubtless be agreed to unanimously. "That the citiz e n s o f L on d on o b ta i ned f rom the Soo e reigns of this realm the right of electing their own mag i trates, and of keeping watch and ward within the City, right which they have ever exercised for the benefit of th! people and the protection of their liberties; that the b ll , for the Am a l gamat i on of the City of London Polic e wit ! the Metropolitan Police is an invasion of this right, and ti subversive of the English Constitution, or principle of IN" self-government which has fostered the love of freedom this country, has drawn closer the ties which connect the people with Crown and Parliament, and under which 010 City and the nation at large have so long prospered." " That the p o li ce f ice of this City i s as efficient, if 11 ) superior, to any force i n th ese rea l ms f or t h e pro tection e d life and property and the detection of crime, 1,9110 for the regul a ti on o f t h e immense traffic 1111-- d throng the streets of this city, and that it is unwise an . ro f inexpedient to interfere with its management and 0311 ,; so long as its duties continue to be efficiently performed' o f " That this meeting calls upon the representati ves , 40 - this city, and also upon the representatives of the eit' z ", in the corporation, to offer, by every means in their P° 1 1; the most determined opposition to the passing of the bill 0 . the amalgamation a the City with the MetroPolitanP elice ,;. and that a petition from this meeting, embodying the P w , sent resolution, be presented to the House of Corine ° one of the City representatives."
