Ari z- ,;t Ii Sint LONDON, 'THURSDAY, JULY 2, 1863. _---~ - Although the last tidings from America, brought yesterday to our shores by the Nova Scotia, add but scantily to our previous know ledge of the course of the war, they possess a peculiar value, inasmuch as they rectify our last fragments of information. The accounts brought to us by the preceding packet appear, after this revi sion, to have been in one cr two particulars very considerably exaggerated. The Confederates who have actually crossed the Potomac, it seems, num ber no more than a few thousand men altogether. Along the banks of that river, however, i n readi ness to follow their commands on the shortest notice, loitered the rest of 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 m en , S u p. posing which estim ate to be correct, th e numbe rs, it is observable, are slightly in excess of those ap pertaining to the Federal army under HOOKE R , Very slightly, however, if at all, can it be in excess t assailing that General the Federals under HOOKER seeingsa General LEE ha s refrained hitherto from ling his antagonist, or from (as yet) crossing the Potomac . A portion of his t roo p s, LEE has sent across it is true' but only a portion, as already remarked,numbering a very few thousand. These, when the last advic e , left, were still in Maryland and Pennsylvani a. They are there manifestly enough less for purposes of reconnoitringthan 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 consittuted, in point of fact, the head qualaers of the expeditionary force in Maryland, whence it might venture at pleasure upon future raids into Pecnsy;v:.;nis. A e cnfi3f,nt statement meanwhile appears to have been put forth through the New York; Tribune to the effect that General LEE had moved his in force upon Centreville, there ma in army HOOKER and defeating the Federals under , defeating them so complet el y that, acc ording to the corroborated account of MANHATTAN, "HOOKER [meaning his immediate entourage, we presume] had been cut to pieces, and his a rm y Rath er captured." a confused, almost we had said a contradic to r y ' way of putting it. But, e ven when expr essed thus confus e dl y, poaIte:ANHATTAN'S statement is s o ex ceedinglyuf its kind, that it surely m ust have some moderate amount of foundation. Aa Defeat and a naamma of Defeat follow hard one upon the other from the Fede ral camp, dropping ominous in upon the 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— " 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 pßsssge 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. SPERE and GRANT has just added a signal triumph to the list of their exploits; but not con tent NI 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. COIWELL, 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, and 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 ascent, 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 hed reached an alti tude of more than four miles. During the descent the sun was no more to be seen, but rain pattered on the balloon, 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. CLAIMER'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 Egyp lan Hall. Lord DERBY re turned thanks in an amusing speech. He began by stating that political bias was unknown in the entertainments in the City. " Yon," my Lord Mayor, said he, "have received this year with dis tinguished hospitality the members of her Majesty's Government, of whica I am happy to say your lord• sh i p is not a supporter." Then he went on to sup pose var i ous circumstances in which th e p resent smooth state of things might be altered. He be lieved that if the chair of the mayoralty were filled by the mos t rabid Dissenter, the bishops and Clergy WOl.. tr eat him with due respect, and also that if a Quaker Lord Mayor appeared he would do honour to the Navy, Army, and Volunteers. There is no doubt that this remark of the noble Earl is true, for the influence of established custom is very great, and it is surprising what importance is attached to the maintenance of the principle of toleration that h as so long ex isted in the City with regard to the exercise of the functions of chief magistrate. However, said Lord DERBY, on the present occasion he thought he might venture to depart somewhat from the rule that prescribed the introduction of polities, seeing so many of his friends around him, and remembering also the fact that the toast had been proposed not only by the MAYOR of London, bat the member for Southamp ton " in which town the Conservative party bad achieved one of the most distinguished among the many electioneering triumphs they have accom plished." His lordship then gave a brief resundof the course of events, in which he truly described the conduct that had ejected the Ccnservatives from office as a pretext, which pretext, as soon as it had served 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 bean 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 p- rt;es very much av it is with troops. It is not the ac._sre campaign TEES SUN, LONDON, THURSDA' ~... EVE_NING, JULY 2, 1863, —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, end 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 be could claim the assistance of when he was First Minister of the Crown. Lord DERBY then 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 themselves." Lord DERBY then went at some length into the general state of affairs and finally declared his conviction that it was better for 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," in the other they were able to control the actions of 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 cluded 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 wbich would assuredly havebeen snatched from them. Mr. DISRAELI made an amusing 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 may 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 Lave not been fulfilled. This I acknow ledge, but I trust it has obtained that which indi viduals 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 es little as possible, with regard to a sense of propriety. Mr. DISRAELI adverted to the excite 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, mppear 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 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 boats ani, 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 who has succeeded by other means in rescuing those in danger. A notice to this effect has been extensively circulated in our seaport towns and fishing villages, and apparently to some purpose in stimulating exertion or in discovering merit, for we find a considerable number of rewards thus given. This shows an earnestness and sincerity of purpose, theorists is schemes. t oo T and an absence of th a t narrowness o f f eel i ng which too often object ottenin ofreformersterfereswith similar and benevolent fre quently not that the work shall be done, no matter by whom, but that it shall be dons in their own peculiar fashion. The bestowal of rewards on per sons totally unconnected with the society shows us t he real anxiety of the committee to attain the benevolent end they propose to the public, andwill greatly benefit the cause not so much ,by the money given, but by the public recognition of m erit—an honour well deserve d b y the enterprising m en who win it. There are ma ny places, naturally, where wrecks may occur, and where no lifeboats are within hail, and where all chance of rescue depends on the shore boats and the volunteer s w h o man them. There are also occasions on which it i s not f oun d necessary to bring out the lifeboat, which genera lly goes to sea on occasions when n o s h ore boat could venture. This arrange ment extends the sphere of the society's influence and will give it a greater interest in the eyes of our seafaring melt. The recent catastrophes have give n rise to som e part of the su ggestions which might, if adopte d, go far to prevent tbeirfor preventing collisions recurrence. In the July journal of the I ns tit u ti on , we find a paper on th e regulations et sea which d eserves at tentios. these articles is really star tlingT.heeclu The average o ragot. 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 came into effect, will, we m a y ho p e, lessen the cha nce of such accidents. In record in g the two la mentable wrecks o o f theo Institution Orpheus and deplores o A r e n s g o Saxon, the jour na l f ththe scanty supply 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, hav e been provided with the material specially p re p ar ed for putting to gether a raft o f sufficient size t o carr y a large number of perso ns ." The great advan tage of large ships being we 1 provid e d w i t h th e means of diminishing the loss of life in case of ship wreck does not a ppear to be duly considered. It has been already Bugg( sted 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 kiwi 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 had 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 t hat 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, Memorable Eventsinth,e Life of a London Phyzi clam 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 utmost superfluous to add that this work is fall of interest end 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 goad 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 whica they had no hand in achieving. In his younger days Di-. 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 lucus a non lucendo." We will not fol low Dr. Dickson throughout his very clear, and com prehensive explanation of his favourite theory— the Chrono•thermai—a system founded upon the tact of man being estentially a creature of habit (periodiciiy ) and exquisitely susceptible to the flue ' uations of temperwure. A resolute toe, 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 'o employ art only to assist in the progress of a natural recovery. This teaching is best summed up in the lines applied to him in a letter ft om one of his admirers— " To render with my precepts less The sum of human wretchedness, And strengthen man with his own mind." In the hope that these very interk sting pages may conduce to that desirable result we very cordially recommend the London Physician's reminiscences. 31m, or the Old and New Philosophy. By the Rev. B. W. Savile, M.A. One vol., pp. 296. Hurst and Blackett. The distance intervening between the sublime and the ridiculous is proverbially trifling. 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 Blackwood's Magazine, entitled " Monboddo," and with which our readvrs are no doubt familiar. The last chapter relates to the " end of man,' and is filed with a collection of most ridiculous epitaphs, some of which are well known to all the iovers 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), Lard Russell's witty commentary upon an offending - F eaker, ' 6 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.

These miscellaneous and very thoughtful Essay s have well &served republication, and they are worthy of an attentive perusal. They are, for the most part, brief, and may serve to occupy a leisure ten minutes in the perusal of one or other of them, but they will not be dismissed from the thoughts when the book 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," " Le-gends 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 iid, 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; he 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 bs rare." " Reading and Study" is the subject of a very judicious article well worthy of of attentive perusal. M. GOUNOD, THE COMPOSER OF FAUST.—In 1851, same sacred music made by htm was first brought to hearing, and in London. at St. Martin's Hall, under the presidency of Mr John Hulkh; and later in the same )ear, Sapho, his fir-it opera, in Paris, owing to the active and prescient influence of a great brtist. The recep thin 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 taen much overrated M. Ponsard—a second opera, La Nonne Sanglante, t one of the worst drarn , s in being— which open., however, is rich in beautiful and characteristic music—a third La Me itcin Malgre lui, a quaint treatment of Moliere's comedy ; and fourthly, this same inconven'ent, unauthorised, and truly indtifensible 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—au opera which, like other things that cannot be cured, must be en dured--an opera simply and s. riously the only opera on the legend which, till now, has gained, or deserved to gain, universal acceptance. To make the victory more signifi cant, it should be added that Faust was originally produced at the third musical theatre in Paris, with only one good chance in its favour—that, it is true, a very good one—a Margaret in Madame Miolan-Carvalho, not to be surpassed in exquisite musical skill, delicacy of feeling as an actress, or depth of expression as an interpreter. What the per manent fate of M. Gounol'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 t.pontini'e La Vestale, have no exis tence. The Germans care little for Handel—the rench know nothing of him.

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 racetirig to hear the paper whica Captain Grant would real. 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 Mahoma. No general description of the features of the negroes could be given, though the receding forehead, the prominent muzzle, the blidgeless nose, and well-shaped dark eyes were common to most of them. The cheek was prominent, and the head was weil set on the shoulders. The trunk and limbs were symmetrically formed, and the head was covered with coarse, wiry wool. The avi rage 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. Crawford and others, Captains Grant and Speke entered into a variety of e:.planations couching the manners and customs of the native races. Votes of thanks wexe given with wueh cordiality to both travellers. means. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. ROMEO AND JULIET. Mdlle. Stella Colas made her fourth appearance last evening in the character of Juliet, before a refined and numerousaudience, and again confirmed the remarkable impression produced by her fi rs t pet 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 end charmud at first was again as conspicuous in the mingled feeling of her enchanting balcony scene, in her playful en treaties to her nurs?, and in the surprising si l o 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 illusio❑ of her youth, her powers have achieved a success which must 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 tbem in Othello. His manliness and ardour render his impersonation of the yuung Montague by far the best in our remembrance. I n t h e scene with the Friar, after the death of Tybalt, and also that of the churchyard, his energy and pathos are espe cially impressive Mr. George Vining again re iieved the tragic shadows of this play with the buoyant humour of his Mercutio, and made the de livery of " Queen Mab's dream" ooe of the most agreeable features of the night. The e ntire 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 wnich has been seen in London for some time. DRURY LANE THEATRE.

Every word told, and every syllable was rendered distinct wish life and interest by this charming actress, who seems not to have lost one iota of her power. On the fall of the curain the applause was ex traordinary, and when Mr. VAndenhtff 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 :..nthetn, the solo parts being sustained by Miss Poole, Mrs. Howard Paul, and Mdlle. Pareps. In organising the entertainment, Mr. FraLcis 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.—Io 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 wa, Vis count des Makes. 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 exprei 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 wi h the deceased, merely an interchange ot 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 =nage. After the train had proceeded half a mile, deceased lighted his cheroot again. Dr. Lowe remarked that he could not sh 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 leached Newark witness and Dr. Lowe were dozing, being very tired. Suddenly he heard a report or crack, which caused him to start. His 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 perfectly collected all the way from Berwick, and was smoking quietly. On arriving at the Newark station they called to the guard and the body was removed. After o her evidence had been offered, the jury returned a verdict to lhe Met " that deceased took away his own life, but there was no evidence t, show tue butte of his LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

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 eiustence. In a short address to the public M. de Girardin claims credit for the teal consistency the Presse has always displayed. "It supported the Monarchy of 1830 till its last labour —the 24th of February ; 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 weake nor overthrow authority, but to maintain and strengthen it. Still, as the advocate of legal liberty, above all things, M. de Girardin ha 3 been compelled scat times to give authority a vigorous push, when the object was " to exilicate it from the rut worn by arbi trary power." The present restric,ions of the freedom of the French press he denounces as a " legal communism." The laws of September,lB3s, made the whole French peope 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, be asks, save the Royalt) of 1830, they were intended to protect ? This sys tem, and all the more recent decrees founded on it, the Presse asserts it has constantly condemned.

Some of the tifiers visited the Exchange, and in their progress along the streets, one of them, who bears a resemblance to the Prince, wag 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. Langlands, bookseller. A proposal was made to get a carriage, but the Prioco declined this, and with his brother ffieers walked to the station of the Perth railway, to which city the party had taken tickets.
