Compressed into One Act we may hate the criminal ; and ATRYANDER in variably spoke slightingly of the act, notwith standing the praise accorded to it in cosequence of the magnitude of the results—but for which it would have been held up to the reprobation of all future generations as a most fearful and horrible atrocity ! We have alluded to these facts from the strong hold that they appear to have taken on the ima gination of the CZAR, and which invests everything connected with the campaign of 1812 with intense interest at the present moment. A comparison of the events of that year,• so disastrous to the for , tunes of the first NAPOLEON, will, however, show that there is really no similitude between the two epochs. France sent a gigantic army, exceeding half a million of disciplined soldiers, into the field, but its enormous magnitude proved the chief source of the calamities that subsequently befel it. It was impossible to provide food and shelter for such numbers, more especially as there is but too much grounds for believing that the im mense magazines and stores which the provident forethought of NAPOLEON had established at Wilna, Wetepsk, Muisk, Mobilow, Smolensko, &c., &c., were, in a great degree, " plundered and wasted by the very hands appointed to guard and distribute them 1" Can we, therefore, won der that the devastation of the country and the destruction of its capital should have had a most ruinous and fatal effect on the fortunes of those thus deprived of almost all their resources ? On every contested field the honour of France was nobly maintained. Even under their most bitter trials the troops maxi their Imperial Commander proved themselves mutually worthy of each other ; and the passage of the Beresnia must ever be regarded A voice which none can despise has just pro nounced in the hearing of Europe the name of Poland. The venerable Prince ADAM CZAR TORYSKI, once the friend of ALEXANDER, and a better servant to the brutal savages NICHOLAS and CONSTANTINE than they deserved ; the re pressor of revolutionary counsels, though com pelled by circumstances to become the President of the National Government in the Polish insur rection of 1831—an insurrection wholly due to the brutalities and cruelties of the Archduke CON STANTINE ; this venerable statesman has spoken aloud to Poland, and that from Paris. Gladly would we believe that he knows himself welcome to speak. Many are the reasons why the monarch who is master of every utterance from the banks of the Seine should espouse the cause of Poland. It is one which has ever been popular with his countrymen. Polish and French legions long fought side byside, and the two soldier-like people learned to admire each other's courage. Frenchmen, to a man, would exult in the restitution of Poland, and would be proud that France should be the re storer. Then, Polish nationality is an unfulfilled piomise of NAPOLEON I.—a promise which he lived to regret that he overlooked. The retreat from Moscow might have been far less disastrous, and the visit of the Russians to Paris after Wa terloo almost certainly prevented, had Poland been a large and powerful kingdom. And even now, should the hereditary despots east of ' the Rhine plot against the throne of NAPOLEON 111. and the liberties of France, a powerful Poland would give them work enough to do if it owed to him its national existence. We may believe, too, that LOUIS NAPOLEON is not indifferent to the place his name may fill in European history. Certainly nothing would fix it in a more perma nently honourable place than to be the prime mover in compelling restitution of Russian, Prus sian, and Austrian spoliations, and in raising from the grave a buried, though yet living, nation. Whatever may be augured or hoped from the place whence the PRINCE dates his letter, much is to be noticed in the fact that he should speak to his countrymen now, and in the tone which he adopts. He gives them no rash, no stimulating counsels, but points out to them the aspect of the political horizon, and - advises them to note the pecu liar manner in which PROVIDENCE has made Poland an important word ; still lie warns them rather to remain quiet than to move without adequate guarantees. He well remembers the oft-deceived hopes of the Poles, and especially how in 1831, like Hungary in 1849, they vainly hoped that the great Western nations would inter fere, if only in their own interests, to demand that Poland should be a bulwark against Musco vite barbarism, instead of a bridge for its baneful influence on European civilisation. He justly observes that "Poland, without its name being pronounced (by diplomatists, he means, Doi-office opeo from Eleven till FoTir. Stage Man nTer. 'qtr. West. Acting Manager, Mr. Campbell. Equestrian Director, Mr, Wm. Cooke, jun. as one of the most brilliant exploits of the greatest General that ever lived, whether in ancient or modern times. To those desirous of acquiring an intimate knowledge of those eventful proceedings, we would earnestly commend an unpretending but intensely interesting little work by Major-General KNOLLYS, formerly of the Scots Fusilier Guards, and now the efficient and. popular Lieutenant- Governor of Guernsey. It is a translation from the French of Lieutenant-General DE FEZENSAC, who commanded the 4th Regiment during the retreat. He was thus placed in the division of Marshal NEY, and, as one of the rear guard, had ample opportunities of witnessing those fearful scenes in all their awful horrors. The " Introduction" of General KNOLLY is, how ever, even more important, for it gives the best and most impartial view of the entire affair. It was, it appears, written expressly for the library of his own Regiment ; but we can answer that at all times, more especially at this moment, it pos sess a charm for civilians as well as' soldiers, af fording, as it does, the most correct information respecting matters of paramount interest to the community.

All men and all Governments who feel that Russia is too over-grown for the quiet of Europe must see in Poland the obvious remedy—a remedy by an act of mere political justice, and one which, had it been done at the treaty of Vienna, would have saved all the present turmoil and expense. It i 3 impossible that Poland should not be now in the thoughts of every politician and every patriot. Nothing, however, can be more cautious than his advice. Cultivate your nationality, wait ou events, move not till some powerful nation de- mands your liberty, then let Poles from all parts of their native land and of Europe rush to the national banner ; till then preserve your present calm and prudent attitude. Such is the substance of his counsel ; he believes that PROVIDENCE is directing events towards the end dear to his heart. Perhaps he breathes a more hopeful at . mosphere in France. We are free to confess that I While the duty and the interest of civilised, and and especially of free, nations is sufficiently obvious, our leading men in this country are the most hope less set he can possibly look to. We have a Cabi net without one master-mind, and half shop-keep ing, half Russian. One section of it dreams of nothing but exports and imports, per centages and Exchequer Bonds, besides a tolerable share of leaning to absolutism. Another section is Russian and Tory for the charm of the things themselves ; and though they are forced by regard for place to confront the CZAR, they take their revenge by lay ing on us the heaviest pecuniary penalty they d ia squandering a ll of the money they can, holding the hands of our soldiers and sailors, and sen di ng them t o fi ght the cholera rather than the Russians. Not one 'noble aspiration, or bold and spontaneous deed --- nothing be yond the vagu e ly gallant words of b u t one mem ber in the Cabinet have we yet heard of. No effort have they made to interest the nation in what they take its money for ; it has been the nation's task to arouse its heartless, or rather its piffle- Russian, servants. We have, however, one hope—they may be "drifting" towards Polish Emancipation. This, indeed, appears to be what the Prince chiefly looks to. He too well knows the selfish ani ab solutist tendencies of our governors to put his trust in them ; but a long political experience has taught him that even Czars, Emperors, and Pre miers cannot stem the course of events. Should the CZAR protract the war through another cam paign ; should Austrian perfidy, already beginning to display its odious character in the provinces, become too transparent and unbearable ; should this real ally of Russia, this coveter of the pro vinces, be unmasked beyond the possibility of pretending mistake, who can then tell what the complications and the solution of them may be ? The indignation of the French, German, and English nations may become unmanageable, their rulers may be compelled in self-defence wholly to change their course, and the venerable Prince CZARTORYSKI, with the snows of age on his temples, may aid with his latest counsels to con solidate the Government of restored Poland. THE CAMP AT BOULOGNE. THURSDAY EVENING, A review of the infantry at Helfault and of the cavalry at Bruyeres took place to-day, in the presence of the Emperor and the Prussian Lleneral Wedel. After the review tho Emperor returned to Boulogne. A US TR A L lA. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 14, The clipper-ship Indian Queen, one of Messrs. James Baines and Co's. Black Ball line of Liverpool and Aus tralian packets, arrived in the Mersey this morning, at 6 o'clock, having on board 240 passengers, and gold dust and nuggets to the value of 246,0001. She left Mel bourne on the 27th of May, but on the 7th of August she put in at Pernambuco for water, where she was de tained until the 10th of the same month. Her advices have been anticipated. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 15, 185 4. HER AI AJESTrS PROGRESS TO BALMORAL. ARRIVAL AT NEWARK. The Royal train arrived at Newark from Peterborough at 43 minutes past 10 o'clock. The station was filled with the most influential ladies and gentlemen of the town, who were permitted to assemble on the up-side of the platform, the down-side being reserved for the com pany's officials and the conductors of the train. Moon, ono of the oldest drivers in the company's service, brought the Royal train from King's-cross Station, where the engine was changed. The Royal train was loudly cheered on its arrival and at its departure from the station. Mr. A. Sturrock, the locomotive engineer of the Great Northern Railway, took charge of each engine along with the driver, and in addition to this there was a communication between the guard and the driver. Mr. Edwards, the manager of the electric telegraph on the Great Northern Railway, was in the train, with an elec tric battery and wires, in order to communicate with any part of the line, and to have communication ready in case of accident. One of the company's servants was on the tender to watch for any signals which might be given from the Royal carriage. After two or three minutes' delay in taking in water the Royal train pro ceeded to Bawtry, where the engine was changed. The station and its approaches were thronged with specta tors ; but the excellent arrangements which had been made by the company prevented anything like confusion. The same demonstration of respect for the Sovereign was manifested at Bawtry, and indeed at all other sta tions where a passing glimpse of the carriages could be obtained. On the arrival of the royal train at Doncas , ter, and in consequence of its beinc , the races, r ver y large crowd of p ersons collected and cheered the train as it passed. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort fre quently acknowledged the gratulations of the people at Peterborough, Newark, and other places. The progress of the train was telegraphed from station to station, and orders were given for the suspension of the traffic for half an hour before the train was due and danger signals exhibited five minutes before the royal train was ex pected to pass. A pilot engine, in the charge of Mr. Johnson, superintendent of the locomotive department, followed the train. A complete staff of workmen and officials of the railway accompanied the train with the necessary tools, &c., for the repair of the train in the event of a break down. The speed of the engines had been previously tried, and the journey between London and Peterborough, 76 miles, was performed in 82 minutes. The train was permitted to run through at the Knottingley Junction on its way to York. ~~~ LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1854. It would seem as if the AUTOCRAT were pos sessed by an insane notion that winter would once more protect Russia from her opponents, and that a repetition of the events of 1812 would prostrate the Western Powers at her footstool, and enable her to carry out her original intention with re spect to "the sick man's" property. Under this impression, he hardens his heart against more prudent councils, and still proclaims his intention not only of resisting any attempts that may be made "to turn the tables," by demanding, at his hands, "material guarantees" for the preservation of peace, but also persists in his arrogant preten sions with respect to the Ottoman Empire and its subjects professing, what he is pleased to term, the " Orthodox religion." The conflagration of Moscow appears to be the model which he has set up for imitation, and the devastation of the coun try the mode of defence on which he mainly relies for defeating any attempt to carry the war into his own country. There certainly is some resemblance between the proceedings of 1812 and 1854. The con duct of Austria and Prussia is just as treacherous and deceitful, and the Russian statements just as mendacious at the present time as they were forty-two years ago. But there the parallel ends; and it is, as we have already remarked, absurd . to suppose that the tactics, which th en succeeded in baffling the attacks, and cutting off a large pro portion of the finest and most powerful army the world ever saw, could be at all applicable to the present crisis. NICHOLAS seems to think that, because the burning of Moscow has been described as "a sublime effort of patriotic devotion," future annalists might be tempted to regard the destruction of Odessa in a similar light. Hence the atrocious proclamation of General KRUSEN STERN', to which we recently directed public notic e , a n d verting the in which h e spea k s o f con town already spared by an enemy more human e th an the CZAR or hi s myrm id ons, ruins " into a h eap of and ashes !" Such an act would have no redeewing feature to divert atten tion from its infamous cruelty. It could scarcely embarrass for a moment the allied tr oo p s , w h o would have all their wants supplied through numerous transports, protected b y a powerful navy, from whose prowess the R ussian ships-of war hide behind batteries destined not to afford any prolonged protection to the skulking cowards. He may recollect, too, that at the time such was the abhorrence with which the cold-blooded act was regarded, that neither the Emperor ALEX ANDER nor any of his officers d tred to acknowl e d ge any participation therein. Even ROSTOPCHIN, . the Governor of the devoted city, and the person cognisant of the original plan and the details by which—if the conflagration were not the result of an untoward accident or series of accidents—it must have b een carr i e d ou t, man y y ear s afterwards (in 1826) published a pamphlet, entitled "La Verite sur l'lncendie de Moscow," in which lie disavowed all claim to what was then beginning to be considered " an honour." And Sir WALTER SCOTT, in his " Life of Napoleon," declared that lc-these-mere many, and those good judges of the larßisar)qitieeof such an event, who have shown , • strang r9,/s T i o , n ) for believing that Moscow shared but the'fate of a deserted city, which is almost always burner as_ well as pillaged I " It is &stain rflos th a rOPCHIN was ever afterwards regarded - - 'with great disfavour at the Court of St. Peters ' btirg ; for attinough we benefit greatly by a crime, COURT CIRCULAR, The Queen and Prince .A111. ,, rt, with the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, Princess Alice, and Princess Helena, left Buckingham Palace at 20 minutes to 8 o'clock yesterday morning for Edin burgh en route to Balmoral. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness were attended by the Duchess of Wellington, the Hon. Eleanor Stan ley, Colonel the Hon. C. B. Phipps, Major• General the Hon. C. Grey, and Sir James Clark. The Royal party proceeded in five of the Queen's carriages, escorted by a detachment of Carbineers, to the terminus of the Great Northern Railway at Ring's cross, where a special train was in readiness to convey her Majesty to Edinburgh. The Queen and Prince were conducted to their car riage on leaving the Palace by Lord Charles Fitzroy, Captain the Hon. Dudley de Ros, and the Master of the Household. Sir George Grey, Secretary of State for the Colonies, is in official attendance on the Queen. The Earl of Aberdeen left town on Wednesday, for Southampton. Despatches were sent from the Colonial-office yester day to the Governor of Van Diemen's Land. His Majesty King Leopold, accompanied by the Duke and Duchess de Brabant and the Princess Charlotte, arrived on the 12th inst. at Tournay from the palace of Lacken, near Brussels, where the Royal family will re main during the fetes which have been some time in preparation to receive them. His Belgian Majesty, we understand, returns annually to the British Treasury about 14,0001. out of the Parliamentary income of 50,000/. per annum, which was voted to hire on the oc casion of his marriage with the late Princess Charlotte, daughter of the late King George IV. The Duchess of Buccleuch, who is still staying at .Walmer Castle in improved health, is expected to arrive at Montagu House, Whitehall Gardens, early in the ensuing week, en route to Scotland. The will of the Hon. and Right Rev. Richard Bagot, D.D., Lord Bishop of Bath and Wells, has been proved under 14,0001. personalty, which he has left to his widow. The lion. Major and Lady K. Evans Freke have arrived in town from Vienna. BEIGHTON.—The town is getting very full of visitors, and fresh arrivals are pouring in daily. We do not remember to have had so large an assemblage of com pany in the months of August and September in any previous year.—Brighton Gazette. THE CLARENDON HOT EL. — Arrived —Viscount Falk land, from Scutterskelfe, Yorkshire. Departed—Mr. and Mrs. Gleason, of Boston, who have been making a tour in Europe, on their return to the United States via Liverpool. EDWARD'S PRIVATZ HOTEL.—Arrived—Mr. Alexander Bruen, with Mrs. Bruen and suite. Departed—Mr. J. G. Gayland and Mrs. Gayland, for Paris. His Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant has been pleased to offer the Archdeaconry of Ardagh, vacant by the ap pointment of Archdeacon Beresford to the bishopric of Kilmore, to the Rev. J. C. Martin, D.D., rector of Killeshandra, and formerly Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin. The Duke of . Norfolk has presented the Rev. A. Gibbons, 8.A., to the rectory of St. Peter's, Thetford, with the incumbency of St. Cuthbert's annexed, ren dered vacant by the death of the Rev. Thomas Sworde, M.A. The Rev. J. L. Gilborne, 8.A., curate of St. Paul's, Hammersmith, and the Rev. John Meredith Lewes. 8.A., curate of Stroud, Gloucestershire, have been ap pointed chaplains to her Majesty's forces in Turkey. The incumbency of Farndon, in the diocese of Chester, has become vacant by the death of the Rev. John Pic cope, M.A. It is worth 1501. a year, and is in the gift of the Marquis of Westminster. The arrival of Smith O'Brien in Belgium is again contradicted. Father Mathew, better know n as th e A postle of Temperance, is obout setting out for Madeira, being Afflicted with paralysis. The dollars brought by the last West India packet were sold yesterday at 621 d. per oz., being an advanet of id. on the price obtained for those by the previous steamer. They were purchased for the Chinese market ANOTHER RUSSIAN VESSEL SEIZED. —The Russian brigantine Rapid has been seized at Hull by the Cus tom-house anthorities. LIEUTENANT FERRY'S DEFENCE AND TESTIMONIAL FUND.—Subscriptions continue to pour in daily, and amount now to a total of 1,0001. On Tuesday 501. ar rived from Lord ,Ashburnham • and on Wednesday it was announced that the Earl of Shaftesbury had paid 101. to the credit of the fund into the bank of Williams, Deacons, and Co. ARRIVAL OF AUSTRALIAN VESSELS.—Five Austra lian vessels arrived yesterday with gold--three from Port Philip and two from Sydney, and the total quantity is 149,818 ounces, valued at 599,2721. One vessel, the Briseis, in addition to 43,600 ounces of gold, has 10,000 sovereigns on freight. The other proportions are, Indian Queen, 60,859 ; N e l son , 14,234 ; Washington Irving, 13,734 ; And Nile, 17,391 ounces. FAILURE.—An important failure has been announced from Manchester—namely, that of the eld-established firm of Messrs. David Scott, Richmond, and Co. Their liabilities are believed to be heavy, and it is feared that the disaster will materially influence the standing of several mercantile houses in Liverpool and elsewhere. SWEDISH LINES.—The completion of the railway com munication between the east and west is now before the Swedish Diet. The committee on the subject has re ported favourably, and has recommended that a sepa rate sum should be constituted for this purpose by the aid of a state loan. GHOST IN PORTSMOUTH.—During the last two nights (says the Portsmouth Guardian) the neighbourhood of the Jewish Synagogue has been for hours well nigh im passable. Crowds have collected despite the efforts of the police, in order to catch a glimpse of a ghost, which, it is affirmed, disports its unearthly form in that locality. ESTABLISHMENT OP A HOP MARKET AT HEREFORD. —A large and influential public meeting was held at the Old Town Hall, Hereford, last Wednesday, the Mayor presiding, for the purpose of establishing a hop market. Resolutions in favour of the project were carried nem. con.—Local Paper. CHOLERA AT MANCHESTER.—Yesterday mornipg. a woman named Mary Ann Phillips, aged 49 years, died of Asiatic cholera, in Hall's-place, Oldham-road, Man chester, after 17 hours' illness, during three of which she had been in a state of collapse. According to a report presented to the watch committee by Captain Willis (the chief constable) yesterday, this is only the second death from cholera in the last month in Manches ter, and the town is generally in a very healthy state. THE ISLE OF MAN.----By the 20th section of the act 17 and 18 Vict., cap. 122, of last session, the Isle of Man is to be deemed and taken to be part of the United Kingdom for the purpose of that or any other act relat ing to the customs, save as to the rates of duties and drawbacks charged or allowed. AUSTRALIA.—The Nile, Capt. Byles, which left Syd ney April 18, put into Falmouth on Wednesday, and landed a heavy mail and several passengers. The letters were sent on from Plymouth (whither they had been for warded by coach) by the mail train on Wednesday even ing, and the remaining portion of the mail on Thursday. Some of the passengers went up by the South Devon Railway on Thursday morning. THE TWENTY•SIX GUN FRIGATE RADETZICY.—The Austrian steam screw-frigate Radetzky, 26 guns, was hauled out of the East India Docks into the River on Tuesday, and is moored at the buoy off Black wall stairs. A frigate, belonging to the same Government, which arrived off Greenhithe a few days since, has the Ra detzky's crew and officers on board, and they will, it is expected, be transferred in the course of the ensuing week. The Radetzky was built at Mr. Wigram's yard, where two others, we understand, are building. THE RECEIPT STAMP.—It was mentioned on Friday last that the Treasury had given notice they would hold all letters of acknowledgment passing between the branches of a bank liable to the receipt stamp, and the impropriety of a regulation of that nature was at the same period pointed out. It appears, however, that the Government had no such intention, and that the statement arose from a clerical error in that answer to an inquiry on the subject, the words "We shall hold they are liable to the receipt stamp" having been erroneously used, instead of " We shall hold that they are not liable to the receipt stamp." EXTENSION OF BAYSWATER.—A little more than 20 years ago there were but two or three streets and a square to the west of Edgeware-road, all beyond being fields leading to the country westward. Now you may walk for nearly a mile and a half to two miles through an endless number of magnificent terraces, streets, and squares, all inhabited by gentry and merchants, and wealthy City men, and even then you are only on the threshold of au enormous district of mansions of the first class, extending for nearly another mile into the coun try. Buildings of the first class are being erected fur ther westward, and there is no doubt that it will become the most attractive portion of the metropolis. NEW ENTRANCE TO KENSINGTON GARDENS.—A new entrance to these gardens is in course of erection, con sisting of a carriage entrance, with one on either side for pedestrians. It is immediately opposite the new church now erecting in the Bayswater-road, and will form an entrance to the broad gravel walk leading directly across the gardens to Kensington-gore, the opposite end of the walk being occupied by the handsome bronze gates pur chased by the Government at the Great Exhibition. None of the other entrances to these gardens consist of anything more than a gate for pedestrians, and it is be lieved to be the intention of the authorities to form a carriage -road and thoroughfare across this part of the gardens from Bayswater to Kensington for the conve nience of the public. ClittlST'S HOSPITAL.—On Thursday, the 21st instant, being St. Matthew's Day, the Lord Mayor, aldermen, sheriffs, and governors of the several royal hospitals will attend Divine service at Christ Church, Newgate-street, where a sermon will be preached by the Rev. G. A. Jacob, D.D., late fellow of Worcester College, Oxford, head m as t er o f Christ ' s Hospital. After which they will repair to the Great Hall in Christ's Hospital, where four orations on the benefits of the royal hospitals will be delivered according to the annual custom :—ln Latin by J. C. Barker; in English, by H. T. Armfield ; in Greek, by J. W. Furrell ; and in French, by C. W. P. Watts. After which will be recited translations from Shakespere and Longfellow, by Messrs.

The following letter, addressed to the editor of the Times, calls attention to some circumstances tending to show that the Baltic blockade may have been less ineffi cient than has been supposed in checking the exporta tion of Russian tallow : " Sir,—ln your city article of Monday, under the head of Advices from St. Petersburg,' you state that 35,000 casks of tallow have been forwarded to England this year, against 42,000 casks to same date last year, and that there. fore the Russian export trade was not much affected by the blockade. " This statement requires explanation, for to this date last year 42,000 casks of tallow had actually been shipped from Russian ports to this country, and 60,000 casks more, in due course, arrived here last winter; total, 102,000 casks. " To the same date this year 35,000 casks have been for warded, of which 13,000 casks only have been been shipped, and the remainder is finding its way overland to neutral ports ; but it is very unlikely that all will arrive, as the average distance is GOO miles by land from the interior of the country. Our blockade of the Russian ports has there fore been, to a great extent, effective. " Sept. 12. " A BROKER." NEW POWERS OF THE SUPERIOR COURTS TO DIRECT ARBITRATION BEFORE TRlAL.—There is an important provision in the New Common Law Procedure Act, which will shortly come into operation, with respect to arbitrations. It is enacted by the third section, that if it be made to appear at any time after the issuing of the writ, to the satisfaction of the court or judge, upon the application of either party, that the matter in dispute consists wholly or in part of matter of mere account which cannot be tried in the ordinary way, it shall be lawful for the court or judge, upon such application, to decide such matter in a summary manner, or to order that such matter, either wholly or in part, be referred to an arbitrator appointed by the parties, or to an officer of the court ; or in country cases to the judge of any county court, upon such terms as to costs and otherwise as such court or judge shall think reasonable ; and the decision or order of suc h cour t or j u d ge, o the award or certificate of such referee shall be enforceable by the same process as the finding of a jury upon the matter referred. This is quite a new feature introduced in the common law. PRICE OF BREAD. - The bakers of Glasgow have re duced the price of the four-pound loaf by one penny. The selling price is now Bd. fer first, and 7d. for second quality.—Glavow Constitutional. TAUNTON.--Bread is now selling at 6d. the 41b. loaf in this town. The fault of keeping the price too high lay, we think, more with the millers than- the bakers ; the millers here are now charging more per sack for flour than is being charged at many other places. and the reason they allege for it is, that the water is low and that they cannot grind so fast as usual.—Sherborne Journal. A CRYSTAL EXHIBITION HOUSE FOR BOTANICAL SHOWS.—On Wednesday afternoon an exhibition of flowers, plants, and garden implements, &c., was opened in the gardens of the Manchester Botanical and Horti cultural Society, at Old Trafford, on the occasion of the completion of a new exhibition house, which has been erected of glass, iron, and wood, at a cost of about 3,000/. The building is fifty yards long, and 19 yards wide. It consists of a centre and two side aisles, and the appearance of the exterior is somewhat in the Swiss style. CORK AND YOUGHAL RAILWAY.—EarIy in the en suing month it is expected that the first sod of the Cork and Youghal Railway will be turned ; and the Earl of Glengall, Viscount Donoughmore, and several other personages of distinction will be present to give eclat to the ceremony. The arrangements are all in an advanced state, and the preliminaries are proceeding very satisfactorily. It is stated that the contract for the execution of a portion of the works will be com pleted in a few days.—Cork Constztution. ANOTHER FATAL ACCIDENT WITH FIREARMS.—A very distressing occurrence, whereby the life of a young gentleman has been sacrificed, happened in the neigh bourhood of Alloa last Saturday afternoon, adding another to the numerous warnings against the incautious use of fire-arms. Herring fishing has fallen off very:much in Loch-fine. Friday's steamer brought ten boxes only, one of which was landed here. The present fine moonlight nights are greatly against the fishing, as the herrings are enabled to see and avoid the nets. For the same reason, mackerel is scarce ; salmon will soon be out of season. A fish of 274- lbs. was in Greenock market from the Isle of ROSS fishinga a few days ago. ALCESTER.—Mr. Prickett, solicitor of this town, committed suicide on Wednesday last. The deceased was observed to walk a short distance on the Stratford road until he reached a bridge thrown over the river Avon. He then diverged into a field by the river side, and taking off hie coat and neckerchief carefully folded them up, and then plunged into the stream. An alarm was instantly given, and assistance rendered, but the unfortunate gentleman was dead. No reason can be assigned for the fatal act, as Mr. Prickett was in easy circumstances, and apparently in good health. He was unmarried.— Worcester Chronicle. CAPTURE OF Two GRAMPUSES IN THE MERSEY.— On Saturday a pair of grampuses were captured in the Mersey, at Ellesmere Port. They were of the bottle nosed species, and each measured about 25 feet in length. A discussion took place, at the North Dublin Board of Guardians, on Wednesday, on the transmission of Irish paupers from London. A pauper child, oue of 12 who bad arrived last week from England, was called into the board-room, and in reply to questions statedt hat she and her sister had been living three years in Black burn. She was bound apprentice there as a servant, and ran away because she was beaten. Her mother was committed to gaol for harbouring her, and she and her sister were obliged to go to the workhouse in Blackburn, and they were there three weeks. A week before the time when her mother would have been liberated they were sent over here along with others. The child added that they came over on the deck of the steamer at night. They were ordered to be admitted. A woman who had been 35 years in England was also admitted. REFORMATION OF JUVENILE DELINQUENTS.—The In dustrial or Ragged Schools, as is generally known, have been very successful in Aberdeen. The effect of these institutions in preventing crime has been very remark able. In the year 1843 there were 53 committals to prisons in Aberdeenshire of children under 12 years of age ; in 1853 there were only 25 ; in one or two imme diately preceding years less than that. About 50 girls go from the female schools alone every year to act as domestic servants in families in which capacity they give their employers generally great ratisfaction. IMPROVEMENTS AT SOMERSET-HOUSE. - Among the works of real utility as well as ornament now going on in the metropolis—and properly falling under the head of "Metropolitan Improvements"—the new buildings by► Waterloo-bridge, intended as Inland Revenue Offices, stand out very conspicuously. Besides covering an awk ward space, and serving as a screen to the unsightly backs of several houses—very prominent to the eye of the pedestrian in journeying from the Strand southward a highly ornamental frontage, commencing near the river, of considerable width and elevation, and com bining the requisites of beauty, order, and solidity, now .presents itself, and is fast rising to completion. That portion of the work already finished, near the bridge, with its elegant Corinthian columns and handsome stone facing (architecturally and decora tively in harmony with Somerset-house, of which it is part and parcel), gives an earnest of the im provement which will be effected on the completion of the undertaking. On the score of utility, too, the work must bo considered a desideratum. For although there will not be, any more than at present any carriage-way into Somerset-place through the new buildings, yet a thorough-fare, or footway, for business purposes, is evi dently intended ; and this, in conjunction with the uses to which the buildings are to be appropriated, will be no small convenience, and stamp the work with the impress of great public utility. The open space yet remaining between the new buildings, which presented a great difficulty in the way of completing the improve ment, will, we understand, be converted into a terrace (the probable future Somerset-terrace) ; while the houses still unscreened will be partly reconstructed, and stone facilig given to them, so as to complete the archi tectural frontage. Great facilities during the progress of the work have been afforded by the proximity of the place to the river, from whence stone has been readily landed in vast quantities ; also by having so large and convenient a space for the preparation of the stone on the spot, for ornament or otherwise, in adapting it to the various parts of the new buildings. THE QUEEN'S ARRIVAL AT YORK Early on Wednesday preparations were in active ope• ration at the York station of the North Eastern Rail way, for securing the comfort of the Queen. The arrival platform, which is upwards of 300 feet long, was covered with a rich tapestry carpet, and tables were arranged at the sides and ends, filled with vases and flowers of the richest fragrance. By the erection of barriers the public were wholly excluded from the north, or arrival, side of the platform ; the south side was filled by several hun dred of the principal families in the neighbourhood, who were admitted by ticket, and the fair sex being in a large majority, the assembled throng had a gay and animated appearance. .A. squadron of the 7th Hussars, under the command of Colonel Haggart, occupied a position near the Railway Hotel, and were accompanied by their magnificent band. The 2d West York Light Infantry, under the command of Colonel Smyth (M.P. for the city of York), formed the guard of honour, and with their regimental colours and new uniforms presented a very martial appearance. They were placed on the west portion of the arrival platform, and presented arms on the arrival of the Royal train, their excellent band playing the National Anthem. The Royal train appeared without the city walls at 12.40, and as it passed through the Tudor arch, and en tered within the city, most deafening cheers greeted the Royal personages. The Archbishop of York, the Earl of Carlisle, the Lord Mayor of York (Geo. Leeman, Esq.), and other gentlemen were in attendance to receive her Majesty. The train proceeded slowly into the station, and the Queen, accompanied by his Royal Highness Prince Albert and the Royal children, alighted at 12.44. The Lord Mayor conducted her Majesty from the carriage, a distance of about 50 yards, to the Station Hotel, where a suite of apartments had been fitted up for the accom modation of the Royal party, and where a sumptuous luncheon was served. G , meral Arbuthuot, the commander of the district, with his staff, were in close attendance upon the Roya, party. Her Majesty remained in the hotel precisely 30 mi nutes, and at 14 minutes past 1 again appeared on the platform, and proceeded to the Royal saloon amidst deafening plaudits, both the military bands playing the National Anthem. The Queen was pleased to express her admiration of the 2d West York Light Infantry, and to pay a high compliment on the corps for their admirable bearing and military appearance. The train left the York station at 1.16, and soon was in full motion towards the north, the route being lined with a loyal and enthusiastic throng for a considerable distance from the city. ARRIVAL AT DARLINGTON. The Royal train reached Darlington at 2.15, being five minutes before the time fixed in the time-table. At this station strict orders had been given that no one should be allowed to be upon the platform, and it was rigor ously carried out, it being stated to be the Queen's ex press order; consequently the number of persons assem bled was not large. A body of the county police, in their dashing new uniforms, were on duty to preserve order, under Mr. Superintendent Robson. A few minutes befdre the arrival of the train, the Royal standard, an ele gan t fl ag b e l onging to the Darlington Horticultural Society, was hoisted. On the train leav ing the station---one of the dirtiest-looking in the whole route--a fresh engine was attached, and, after a stoppage of about six minutes, it again moved off on its way to the north. The people present, numbering several hun dreds, showed no enthusiasm, and we did not hear a single cheer. A feeling of disappointment was prevalent at Lot being permitted to display their loyalty, and it is much to be regretted that it should be repressed. ARRIVAL AT EDINBURGH. The Queen and the Royal family arrived at St. Mar garet's station at half-past six o'clock ; from thence they proceeded, amidst the acclamations of the people, to Holyrood Palace, where the Lord Provost and magi strates were in attendance to receive her Majesty. The Queen left Edinburgh this morning on her journey northwards. ST. MARY'S HALL, ST. MARY'S-ROAD, CANONBURY, ISLINGTON.-Last night the re-opening lecture was de livered at this eminent Institution for ladies by the Rev. J. F. Denham, rector of St. Mary-le-Strand, &c., on the practical benefits of the ladies' college system of educa tion. Every kind of objection to this mode of female education . was amply considered and refuted, and its es sential conduciveness was shown to even the temporal, as well as intellectual, moral, and,religious welfare of its recipients. The lecture had been printed for the occa sion, and was obt a i na bl e a t th e i nst i tut i on. MONTHLY PAYMENT OF SEAMEN.-At a recent meet ing of the Devonport Board of Commissioners, reported in the Plymouth Journal, Mr. Harris drew the attention of the board to the evils likely to arise from the new system of paying the seamen employed in ships abroad monthly, instead of allowing the arrears to accumulate and paying off the ship at the end of the commission. He was quite sure the result of the new system would bo to increase the cost of parochial relief in seaport towns. Some further remarks were offered on this sub ject, and the matter dropped. GARNETT AND MOSELEY GOLD MINING COMPANY OF AMERICA.-Yesterday the ordinary general meeting of this company (adjourned from September 7) was held at their office, Cannon-street, City, to receive the report and accounts, and for general business. The report, which was agreed to, stated that in addition to the quartz raised from the mine there was at surface up wards of 200,000 tons of sand, which produced Bs. worth of gold per ton ; but Professor Ansted had ex tracted gold equal in value to 3/. 10s. 6d.. To the 30th June last, there had been expended in the purchase of the mines, in money .and shares, 27,500/. ; in stock, plant, machinery, and houses, 5,454/. 9s. 11d. ; and in labour, provisions, and all other expenses, 11,663/. 3s. hi., making a total of 4 4,617/. 13s. ; white there had been received from the sale of gold ore, 2,155/. 4s. 9d. • and profit on sale of shares, 1,359/. 7s. 6d. The ba lance-sheet Showed an amount on either side, in cluding 8081. ls. cash in hand, and at the bankers', of 59,303/. 2-3. 4d. NORWICH MUSICAL FESTIVAL _NORWICH, Thursday. -The attendance at the morning performances in St. Andrew's-hall has increased daily during the week. This morning about 1,100 persons were present to hear Mendelssohn's Lizjalt performed for the second time in Norwich. The second part consisted principally of selections from the works of Weber and Sphor. Meyer beer's magnificent Marche aux Flambeaux, given for the first time in Norwich, brought the performances to a close. At its commencement, however, the audience rose to leave ; and ere it was finished the hall was deserted. ROBBERY OF A JEWELLER'S SHOP AT IVIANCHESTER.- A young man, named Charles Wood, was brought be fore the city magistrates, at Manchester, yesterday, charged with being implicated in a robbery of the shop of Mr. Watson, silversmith and jeweller, Market-street. About 2 o'clock yesterday morning a policeman ob served four men loitering about that street, and he and some other officers went towards them, when the men ran away. About 20 minutes afterwards the officers heard a noise in Market -street, and on approachi ng M r . Watson's sh op t h ey discovered that the shutters had been prised open at the bottom. The prisoner, who says he comes from Sheffield, but is well known to associate with thieves in Manchester, was remanded till Monday. A WORD TO THE BUTCHER.-The baker is not the only man who is indisposed to follow the markets when there is a fall. The butchers, we are afraid, forget when the price of beasts is reduced. We find that in Smith field butchers' meat has begun to fall as compared with prices a month ago. If we contrast the tariff at the be ginning of August and September, the reduction will be clearly perceived :- August. September. Beef Mutton... 4s. 2d. t o s s . 2d. Od. Lamb ... 4s. Bd. to ss. Bd. It is high time the price of butchers' meat was givi ng way ; for, although the traffic) in beasts now established between Scotland and London tends to withdraw the supplies, and the high wages enjoyed by so many of our operatives lead to a greater consumption than usual, and the two circumstances united tend to raise the price of the commodity, it is still at a price unnaturally high._ Glasgow Commonwealth.

The Ottoman Muchir• ordered the advance of eight regiments of caval r y, desiring to draw on an engagement on the op e n field. The Turks ap proached nearer and new cer to the Russian camp, until they discovered th a,t it had been abandoned as if in great haste.
