MONEY R K E r AND COMMERCIAL INT ELL I GENCE. )ITY, TWO o'CLOCK. The sales of -cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 8,000 bales, including 2,500 American taken on speculation. The market was well sup plied, and prices fully maintained, but closed tamely. Railway Shares were firm. The weekly statement of the Bank of England to the 2d instant would indicate a great increase in the demand for money, the other securities being materially augmented ; but there is, concurrently, such an addition to the balances of private deposi tors that no absolute pressure for money can be said to have existed. The bullion in both depart ments showed a decrease of 267,0531., and the Turkish loan will probably occasion a further re duction ere long. Compared with the previous week, the changes are as follows : Active circulation.. Decrease Bullion Decrease Rest £19,851,6 65 195,850 13,368,37 1 267,053 3,689,56 3 294,353 3,996,427 21,853 10,402,859 427,826 1,032,899 27,281 10,980,0 29 10.750 15,178.013 777,204 6,836,585 59,595 Increase Public Deposits Increase Other Deposits Increase Seven-Day and other Bills Decrease Government Securities Increase Other Securities Increase• Notes unemployed Decrease There was a firm tone yesterday afternoon in the negotiation of bills of exchange upon the principal continental cities, Paris, 90 days, being done at 25 25 to 30, Hamburgh at 13, 6 to G i t, Frankfort, 1181 to 1181, and Amsterdam, 11, 171 to 171. Bar silver is at ss. Id., and Spanish pillar dol lars are Gs. 3d. The price for the dollars by the last West India packet, according to the report of Messrs. Haggard and Pixley, is not yet fixed. The demand for gold for the Continent has ceased. During the fortnight ending last evening, the honourable East India Company drew bills upon the Presidencies to the amount of 172,8141. The amount of Fsp ecie exported direct from Lon don during the week to Thursday last was 131,300 ounces of silver, and 100,0001. and 1814 ounces of gold. The arrivals to-day include the steamer Bahiana, from the Brazils, and the ship Fanny Kennedy, from. Adelaide, South Australia ; but the latter has not such recent dates as those previously to hand. The demand for money in the Stock Exchange in banking circles generally to meet the payment of the instalment on the A. series of the 2,000,0001. exchequer Bills has rather subsided, but it is pro bable there will be a continued inquiry for cash, while the Turkish loan has to be provided for. Consols have been 95 to k for transfer and 95A to for account, the market being extremely inac . - tive. Exchequer Bills have been at Gs. premium. Foreign securities have been firm. Mexican bonds have been at 25. Spanish 3 per Cents. are qubted 37i to 38, and the Certificates 5/ to a. The Turkish loan has been at 5 to 51 premium. Belgian 4i . per Cents. are at 22. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada, Deferred Bonds 6 to Mexi can 241 to 25, Peruvian 70 to 72, ditto 3 per Cents. 51 to 53, Portuguese 4 per Cents. 40 to 42, Russian 5 per Cents. 97 to 99, ditto 4 per.

The Railway Share Market has been improving and with fair transactions. In the Miscellaneous Shares, not much has been done. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Onicial List.)

" Sir,—l have to state to you that I have this day re ceived from the Minister of Foreign Affairs of her CathO lic Majesty an answer to the note I addressed to his Excel lency, anxiously urging the payment of the confiscated Coupons, as a matter not only of common justice but of national faith; and I wish to inform the bondholders especially, and the public generally, that this answer, not only in sense but in phrase, is precisely the same as those which have been returned to me on the same subject by Senors Bravo Murillo, Roncali, Lersundi, and Sartorious, disclaiming diplomatic interference, but saying, as a sort of favour, that my note has been forwarded to the De partment of Finance.

( From the Mining Journal of this day. ) MINES.—The market for Mining Shares remains in a very quiet state, and few transactions take place in either speculative or dividend mines. ' At this season of the year there is never much doing, but the absence of exci Lement in the market, and the pressure of " calls," have , made the usual dulness more observable. In Basset, bushoess has been transacted at 5901. to 6001. ; WestAlfred Convols, 261. to 271. ; Venton, 2/.los. to Si. 10s. At the latter mine an improvement has taken place in one of the south ends, which is yieldipg7 cwts. per fm. of very rich lead ore ; this has caused a demand for shares, which previously were unsaleable.

PaLmouTH.--The Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society held its ll2d annual exhibition on Wednesday, the 6th inst., at their hall in this town, under the presidency of Sir Charles Lemon, Bart. The articles produced for Prizes and competition in the various classes were select and good, though not so extensive as on many former occasions. Among the varieties for exhibition this year were curiosities of several kinds from Burmah, and a vivarium for fresh and salt water fish, crustacea, &c. (similar to that in the Regent's-park), which attracted especial attention and interest. The usual prizes of silver and bronze medals and of money were awarded by the judges in the departments of natural philosophy, machinery an 1 models, inventions and improvements, fine arts' statistics naval architecture, natural history, ke. The exhibition will continue open for several days and evenings, during which lecture§ will be delivered and conversaziones carried on on such popular and scien tific subjects as come within the sphere of the society's operations.

The work of preparation has commenced in earnest at Doncaster, and curiosity respecting the events to be de cided is daily increasing in intensity. The St. Leger, of course, exclusively occupies men's thoughts and atten tion. The support conceded to Boiardo is scarcely suffi cient even to dispel all doubts as to John Scott's inten tions as to his Jot, for the opinion obtains ground that Acrobat will after all he the more worthy of confidence, whilst some people pretend to believe that Dervish—the defeated and disgraced at Epsom—will " come again." The Trapper puzzles the "ring." and is still under sus picion. Ail manner of strange and exaggerated rumours are circulated respecting him ; some to the effect that be has been recently tried with Andover and Hermit, and has not been found wanting. Indeed, it is reported that this achievement bc th delighted and surprised his party, for he is said to have displayed racingability of a higher order than was expected. Midsummer is talked about, but the public seem little inclined to place faith in her. By the way, report states that she has been recently pur chosed by Baron Rothschild. Autocrat is gradually advancing into favour. Mr. Major has, I understand, given him quite a new leg, and the horse, it is said, has been doing good and steady work for many weeks. Knight of St. George is au outsider worthy of notice, but an opinion exists that he will find the distance a drag on his chance. This afternoon a meeting will take place at "The Corner," when some movements of im portance may be made. • I shall reserve my opinion on the chances of the competitors until 1 londay, when I shall be in possession of "advises" from Doncaster. The sporting contributors to the weekly press cer tainly seldom agree in their views, but when they do, as Mr. Puff says, their unanimity is wonderful. All seem prepared to witness the " triumph of Lord Derby's colours." The Sunday Times, in a fine spirit of pro phecy, says :—" Stretching our vision into the middle of next-week, we fancy we see in our mind's eye the triumph of Lord Derby's colours, and THE BEST of SCOTT'S lot (probably ACROBAT) first past the post, AUTOCRAT and THE TRAPPER occupying the next position." BeU's Life :Tali, after a long silence, lifts up its voice in a vatici i.atillg mode and proclaims that in its opinion "the re sult of the struggle will terminate in the triumph of Lord Derby's colours by the aid of either BOIARDO or ACRO BAT, and that the KNIGHT OF ST. GEORGE may reap the honours of a second position." "Touchstone," of the Era, writes :—" We now record our firm belief that the Derby and Oaks disappointment which Lord Derby has experenced will be made ample amends for by the suc cess If his horses BOIARDO or DERVISH, with IvAN for a cockboat.' " And " Yates" thus casts the "Doncas ter Destinies :"—" Boiardo to win, notwithstanding the whistles.' It is evident that after their last trial they trust him with their rhino, and Trapper, the slasher, for second, nho may be the monster' of the post, who will place him in deadly jeopai dy,' with Acrobat for third, who may yet prove my anticipated A 1 of the Roodee." The list of sport for the four days comprises thirty items, and the majority of the encounters will be peculiarly interesting. Each day will have distinguish. ing " features." On Tuesday will be run for The Great Yorkshire Handicap and The Champagne Stakes. For the former event, Rabeill is the leading favourite, and, indeed, the only animal backed for money. The position which he occupies in the betting was gained by him in consequence of a race at Edinburgh, where Rataplan beat bim by a length and a half. So good, however, did Mr. T. Parr deem his performance, that he was induced to buy Rabgill—the price he gave was, it is said, 7001. This horse is weighted for the Great Yorkshire Handicap at sst 71b, but for the Cesarewitch he is " complimented" with 7st 61b ! For the Cham pagne Stakes are entered Lord of the Isles, Dirk Hatteraick, and Bonnie Morn. The first-mentioned animal, however, is not expected to go to Doncaster, and Bonnie Morn will doubtless frighten Dirk Hatte raick from the field. Wednesday is the " St. Leger Day." Thursday, although generally called an off day, will present two powerful attractions in its Two-Year-Old Stakes and Eglinton Stakes. Among the nominations for the latter are the Derby winner Andover, the flying Virago, and the speedy Ellermire. The distance is suited to Eller mire, and it is probable that neither Andover nor Virago will be brought out to oppose her. On Friday an en counter between West Australian and Virago is expected fnr the Cup. Should these renowned turf celebrities meet, the event will excite unusual interest. On Monday I shall enter into a discussion of the pro bable results of the principal races, and, to use a musical phrase, shall publish my "Notes on the Leger line." Sept. 9. A FRESH MAN.

THE BRAZTL SCREWSTEAMER OLINDA.—A letter from Holyhead states that, on the 7th instant, the steamer Hercules, with a lighter in tow, bearing the boilers of the above ill-fated vessel, had arrived that day. Our readers will remember that the Olinda started on her second voyage to the Brazils, from this port, on the 26th of January last, and same night, while in chargo of a pilot, struck on Harry Furlong's Bock, on the Welsh coast. The crew and passengers, as well as a conside rable portion of her cargo, were saved.—Live7poo/ Chronicle. , CUSTOMS PROMOTIONS.—The Lords of the Treasury, after a long inquiry, have declined to accede to a peti tion of the landing department in the port of London for a more open system of promotion, and that they might succeed to the offices of collectors and comptrol lers, their lordships having replied that they are not prepared to alter the existing practice.—Civil Service Graeae. FIRE AT SUNBURY DISTILLERY.—At a late hour last night a fire broke out in the stillhouse of Sunbury Dis tillery. The engines were speedily in attendance, and by the vigorous exertions of the brigade, the fire was extinguished in a short time, but not until considerable damage had been sustained. We have not ascertained the origin of the fult.--Edinburgle avow. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 9, 1864, MARYET IVETYS-(THIS DAY.) COVENT GARDEN.

On Wednesday - evening a banquet was held in Glas gow in commemoration of the inauguration of Baron Marochetti's etatueof the Queen, which ceremony took place during the day. The party assembled in the fine old Town-hall, which has not been opened since the visit of her Majesty in 1849. The Lord Prevost occupied the chair, supported by Baron . Marochetti, hanlaiGn- e Sir n e Archibald teh t e Alison ; R ev . M r . Gl e i g , the Chaplain-General Forces ; Sir James Anderson, M.P., Mr. Macgregor, M.P., Mr. W. 8. Li n d sa y, M.P., Princip a l M ac f ar l an , &c. Bailie Gourley officiated as croupier, supported by Mr. W. Lockhart, M.P., Mr. A. Hastie, M.P., &c. After the health of her Majesty had been drunk with great applause, the LORD PROVOST proposed in a special bumper— "The Emperor Louis Napoleon and our brave allies, the French," which was received with phi longed cheering. Sir A. Aersoar, in proposing "The hee.lth of Baron Marochetti," said—l feel the utmost satisfaction in hav ing been in some degree the means of introducing to this city the distineui,hed artist. Gentlemen, if there is one Bs n a i a a t rinso satisfaction nowEuropeaßreoeirnh he ihastwillh t ih lo ne o na k , di back a ai scnket:nwgr advantage with pridefbl erankffriend, i e a an n nd d d Marochetti. te the i f( a ) s r t t u g n e e a , l possessin g In all t t i h e a n t , o h r e d , i l n i k a rey his i l c l n o s n t s r i i d e e n r s a: 0 o the last goal of their ambition he, like hi illustrious coon tryman, Alfieri, considered them not as a gift, but as a responsibility, as conferring upon him an obligation to P justify the e l ements of his rank and thepossession of th the e gifts e o f f p fortun e nd by in re t n h d e er fi in n g e himself s a li s i s e m an i n e e : w e e : t o , il e s i had been i n th e career of war. I need not say h has fulfilled th a t o bj ect. We have only to look at the proceedings of this day---we have only to look at the two statues of th e D u k e of Wellington and Queen Vi ctoria to see how amp l y and how nobly he has attained his object. (Loud cheers.) Fifteen years have now elapsed since a question arose in this city as to the artist to whom was to be entrusted the formation of the Duke of Wellington's statue. There was a great keen ness, and a very laudable and proper anxiety evinced jon the part of many most m er it or i ous men in this country 1 that it should be given to a British artist—that the hero of Great Britain should be commemorated by the genius of Great Britain. But there were others who thought that the fine arts constituted a republic, where there is no distinction of nation and country—that wherever genius exists there a countryman is to be found. (Im mense applause.) Baron Marochetti was then wholly un known to every member of the Wellington Committee. His reputation, indeed, had been wafted across the Alps, but none had seen his works, and the only specimen we had was in the small model he sent of the statue of Emmanuel Fillibert, which now graces the city of Turin. The moment that statue was beheld it was seen he was a man among a million, and to that man Glasgow should entrust its great work. Sneed not say how that work has been accomplished. (Hear.) We have only to look at what we have seen in Glasgow to day to be convinced that the genius of our illustrious friend is equally capable of undertaking all the greatest works of art,.for he has erected in one square a statue which will commemorate to posterity the character of that hero who bore aloft the star of conquest only to render it the instrument of mercy —who was a warrior only to become a pacificator—and he has to-day drawn the veil from a statue which will exhibit to the eyes of our admiring countrymen—l may say his admiring countrymen, ifor he is an adopted son of Britain—a per fect representation of the features of that illustrious Queen who bears the sceptre of this empire and of the ocean only to make it the sceptre of justice. If there is any gratification on this occasion, it is to think that in those testimonials to our illustrious Queen and hero an initiative has been shown by Glasgow. There was no monument in Scotland to the Duke of Wellington till Glasgow erected its one, and there was no monument to Queen Victoria till the veil was drawn from the statue to-day. (Applause.) Glasgow has thus shown that, if she can appreciate the deeds of our hero, she can no less appreciate the virtues of the Sove reign on the throne, who is the great model to whom all her subjects look up. I hope this is not the last occa sion on which we shall meet to do honour to the genius of Baron Marochetti. There is a fund already created for a statue in this city to that statesman who has impressed his signet on the commercial policy of this country, and who has done so much to cement the union of nations. We have a great square in this city, in which the smoke of the city is as hostile to vegetation and natural beauty as it is favourable to works of art—(a laugh) —a square which already contains a monument to Sir Walter Scott and Sir John Moore, a native of Glasgow, and I hope it will not remain long without a statue of Sir Robert Peel—(loud cheers)—and let us all hope that in that square will yet be seen a statue on which shall be repre sented the united arms of France and England, which shall bear, perhaps, the name of Napier, Raglan, or Cambridge ; and, on one side of it, shall be represented the name of Sebastopol, and on the other side the name of Cronstadt. (Great applause.) Baron Marochetti's health was then drunk with all the honours. Baron AiIItOCHETTI, who was received with applause, said—l rise with gratitude, but with great embarrassment, to acknowledge the honour done to the fine arts in my per son by a company representing one of the greatest com mercial and industrious communities of this empire. Need I say how proudl am that my hand has been chosen to record in this noble city your gratefulrespect to a grand captain and great warrior, and your loyal affection for your noble and illustrious Queen ? I should speak as astranger, but your hospitality makes me at home ; as a foreigner, but art is of no country—art is of all countries. Had I needed to be taught this lesson, my brother artists of England and Scotland would have taught it me by the kindness with which they have welcomed me A 9 one of their body; but, among the many marks of hospitality and honour which I have received in Great Britain, I have had no tribute of hospitality more splendid or cor dial than this, and no trophy more gratifying than the commission which Glasgow has entrusted me—that one, ahoye all, which has given rise to the festival to-night. (Cheers.) I am proud to own my obligation to this gJod city, and, in returning thanks for the honour you have done me, let me give back collectively your greet ings in the motto of your city arms—" Let Glasgow flourish." Mr. MACGREGOR, M.P., gave "The United States of America, and may those who are so nearly related to us in blood never be separated in friendship." Ho referred to the fact that in 180 G there was only one vessel on the Clyde that traded with America, and enlarged on the incalculable benefits arising from the increased commerce with that country. He believed Scotland was more in timately connected with America by language and in terest than any other country in the world. His Excellency, Mr. BUCHANAN, the United States' Minister, in reply, said—l cannot feel myself a stranger in a strange land in the presence of this company. I almost feel as if my feet were on my native soil. (Hear.) I feel that I am in the presence of relatives and friends, and glad I am that by mere accident I happened to be here upon this occasion. We have not as yet done much to cultivate the arts in America, but we have taste to admire them, and the statue of the Queen that was dis closed to the wondering and admiring eyes of the people of Glasgow to-day did not produce a warmer feeling of admiration in the minds of my artistic friends than it did in my own mind, rude as it is in matters of the kind. (Hear.) And why should I feel myself a stranger in a strange land here ? Wo speak the sarne language, we read the same books, we worship the same God, and the dis tinguished authors of Scotland are as familiar as house hold words to the whole population of America. Every child born in the greater portion of the United States of America has as good a right to receive a common school education as he has to breathe his native air and to drink of the fountains of his native country ; and the poetry of Burns and of Scott, the romances of your distinguished novelists, and the works of yourdistinguiished historians, are read from the Atlantic to the Rocky Mountains. (Hoar.) I never bare been in Scotland before, but I confess I had very strange reflections, and very agreeable ones, in travelling through Glasgow to-day. You cer tainly are a great people. You made the most furious raids in bygone times that ever were made by mortal men, and these desperate conflicts have been ennobled, and all the world has been made to understand their nature, by your poets and novelists. But the better age of utility has succeeded the age of romance, and I think the most perfect specimen of that is in the reflection that there is a steamboat now plying on Loch Marine. Alas for poetry and romance after that! (Laughter and ap plause.) With regard to the two countries, although much has been donate make them enemies, and although vextgli questions have arisen to estrange them, yet coun tries which God has united the folly of man cannot put asunder. And I do trust, and hope, and believe that all the clouds that have been for a long time, and to some extent are yet lowering upon us, will be buried in the deep bosom of the ocean. With Glasgow we certainly have stronger ties than with almost any other city in the world, because I have no doubt that the citizens of Glasgow not only enteitain an affection for us, because we are bone of their bone and flesh of their flesh, but they are a trading people, and they like good customers. (Hear, hear.) I therefore trust and hope that the bonds of mutual friendship which unite us and them at pre sent, and unite us both with the whole empire of Great Britain, may become stronger and stronger, and may be perpetual. (Prolonged applause.) The CHAPLAIN-GENERAL (Mr. Gleig) then rose and said that he had been requested to propose a toast which would, without doubt, be received with the utmost cor diality, but of which ho felt the importance, as well morally as politically, to be such that he heartily wished that the duty of bringing it forward had been committed to abler hands. He need scarcely remind the enlight ened citizens of Glasgow that for w ell nigh 600 years France and England had stood towards each other in an attitude of constant antagonism. (Here the speaker was interrupted by Mr. Macgregor, M.P., who more than eece uttered th e wor d " S cotland. " ) The Chaplain-(' neral observed—M y h on. friend on my left seems xe; v nc anxious that I s h ou ld b r i ng Scotland most uy €er sarily into t rou bl e. I f he will read his histor n.tgeaii he will le arn f rom i t that for more- than 30U out of these 600 years Scotland was the steady ally of France and the enemy of England ; bat we will let that pass. Well, then, for nearly 600 years France and England stood in constant antagonism towards each other. Forms of go vernment in eitherland might pass away, and be succeeded by others ; dynasty might supplant dynasty ; yea, religion itself change the manner of its worship, and, in some part, the very articles of its creed : but in the hearts of either people a fire continued to burn, which could not, as it seemed, be extinguished, except in the best blood of the other. And Scotland, too, as soon as her ancient feuds with E ng l an d ceased, took her part in the strife, amid which there were no harder blows struck nor sterner " dunts" tak en th an t h ose which our own k il te d warriors received an d a d m i n i stered. (Applause.) It is arose impossible to over -estimat e th e amoun t o f mora l ev il out of thi s s t rugg l e b etween t h e two g reat in the w or ld, f or i ts e ff ects were fe lt everywhere.

It seemed, indeed, as — if the earth was too narro w Co con tain both people, and that the very ocean had refused to bear up their flags in common. Row could the art s which soften life, or tend to raise man in the scale of moral being, flourish under such circumstances ? At the same time let justice be done. There is no evil out of which some good springs not. He had had a little e.xperience of the French as enemies, and they were a noble foe. We found it always difficult, sometimes impossible, to beat them in the kilt ; but when the fight was over they were always tr, us as brothers. And so far each nation learnt to respe-ct the other, even while their hostility was the bitterest. But peace came at last ; and though it did not brin g i n i ts train anything which could be called a close arnance between the nations, it enabled both to make prodigious strides upwards. Think of what the last 40 years have done for this country, aye, for this city. Hear.) He was a boy at college bore when the war of the French Revolution was at its height, and he could scarcely credit his senses when he looked round and PAW what Glasgow had since become. And if so much cou ld b e produced by 40 years of repose, what had we not a right to expect from the cordial alliance of the two nations ? Ile had no doubt but that, with Gr,a's blessing in a righteous cause, the combined arms, of these ancient rivals would prevail in the great strejgele in which, side by side, they had entered. They bould together conquer a peace, which it was to be hoped wou ld prove as lasting as that which had just been brok en . A n d thus, mutually esteeming and re specting each other, they would enter upon a new courseal of riv a l ry, of which the improvement of mankind,soc _ as well as pol i tical, would be their object. In that high ' and lofty strife each would do their best ; and by their hearty co-operation the blessings of civilisation would be carried to the remotest corners of the earth. The Chap laiu-General then concluded, amid much applause, by proposing the followin g sentim en t : May the cordial " union which now hail subsists between Greatritain and Fran ce b e th means of securing a speedy peac e and , advancing the civilisation of the world." Monsi eur Maaßoussrss, the F rench Consul, replied i n the following terms :—Aux paroles si vraies et aux pensees si bien exprimees que nous venous d'entendre je repondrai dans toute la sincerite demon lime. Oui, messieurs, feli c i tous nous de vivre It une époque 4 la qu!lle l'A ng l eterre et la France sont enfin etreitement unix.; ' soyons assures que les dares epreuves de la guerre n ~ treront encore clavantage la valeur et la necessite ae cette belle et puissante alliance. (Cheers.) La volonte energique et loyale qui ne cesae, en Fre de faire le bien et de coMbattre le mal—cette volonte qui fait qu'aujour d'hui, du nord is l'est lee etendards de la France flottent unis ?i, ceux de la Grande Bretagne, astir* anssi, n'en doutons pas, avec le retour des bienfaits de la paix, cimenter, entre nous, d'eternelles et d'amicales sympathies. (Cheers.) Merci, messieurs, d'avoir bien voulu vous associer au toast qui vient d'être porte. Que nos voeux soient les mdmes pour la conservation des jours precieux d'un monarque qui a droit aux sentiments de respect et d'admiration, non seulement de tons lea peuples, mais encore de toes les partis. Que nos voeux soient unis pour les succes de nos soldats, de nos m ar i na dont l'abne ga ti on est s i no b le, le covrage si elevd ; pour ces hommes enfin, qui, precisement en ce moment affrontent des dangers qu'ils connaissent deja, et en faisant noblement d'advance l'abandon de leurs vies, prouvent combien, avant tout, ils aiment leur patrie. (Cheers.) After several other toasts had been duly honoured the meeting separated, THE CVTLERS' FEAST AT SHEFFIELD. The inauguration of the Master Cutler (Thomas 31oulson, Esq.) was celebrated on Thursday last with the usual formalities. The dinner was announced at about a quarter after four o'clock, and the guests who occupied with the Master Cutler the cross table, were, on the right hand, the Right Hon. Earl Fitzwilliam, Sir T. White, Bart., A. Roebuck, Esq., M.P., R. W. Milnes, Esq., M.P., Peter Fairbairn, Esq., Leeds ; E. S. Murphy, Rev. Mr. Payne, of Dewsbury Moor ; Capt. Minchen, Captain Sir W. Russell, R.N. W. Jeffcock, Esq., an d Wilson Overe n d, Esq. On the left hand were—the Lord Mayor of London (Thomas . Sidney, Esq.), George Hadfield, Esq., :ALP., the Vicar of Sheffield, Major Faux, R.N. Phillipps, Esq., Major Byrene, the Mayor of Wolverhampton (John Neve, Esq.), W. Smith, Esq., the Rev. Joseph Hunter, of London ; and G. W. Chambers, E s q. After the usual loyal toasts had been proposed and responded to enthusiastically, The Master Cutler said—My Lords and Gentlemen, —The next health I have the honour to propose is that of a nobleman who is a near neighbour, and one who has always proved himself a friend to this town. I congratulate myself that we have the honour of his company on the present occasion. (Cheers.) I shall not attempt to speak of him as a political character, or dwell upon his merits, for those only who have known him since he first ascended yonder steps (Paradise-square) can fully appreciate the value of his long life, and testify to his worth. His manner of life, certainly, Las always been a pattern to those of his own rank, and a bright example to any man in any condition in life. I have great pleasure in proposing "the health of the Right Hon. Earl Fitzwilliam." (Loud cheers.) The Earl FrrzwiLuear warmly responded to the toast. In the course of the evening the Earl FiTzvvlLLiem, referring to the war said—Gentlemen, before I sit down, just let me warn you against the flattering notion that you can bring this war to a speedy issue. (Hear.) I do not believe you can, and for this reason, because you cannot touch the vitals of Russia. (Hear.) You may rely upon that. I will not call it a nation, for it is not a nation—it is an aggregation of nations, or rather an aggregation of encroachments upon the rights of other nations. (Cheers.) We have taken oue fortress from the Czar, and supposing we should take another at another extremity of his empire, I doubt whether even then you would force the Czar to reason. (Hear.) He knows you cannot touch what I have called the vitals of his em pire. I fear, therefore, that it must be a long war--a war to the raging of which we must make up our minds. Recollect, it is not a mere flash in the pan—it is not to be done in a moment—it is not to be done like a clap of thunder ; but you may rely upon it, it will require much patience and resignation on the part of the British na tion before you can bring this war with Russia to a close. Its termination may be near, but I confess that I do not look forward with any expectation that it can be done speedily, and in a satisfactory manner. You might un doubtedly close it shortly, but then you would not do it satisfactorily also. (Hear.) It must be done satisfac torily, whether it be accomplished speedily or at some distant period. (Cheers). Mr. William Cooke's wonderful elephants having finished a most brilliant career in Paris, are now per forming to crowded audiences at Hamburg. They will shortly return to the amphitheatre, and appear in a new spectacle written expressly for these Eastern wonders. We understand Mr. Nelson Lee, the celebrated pantomime author, has, at this early period, sent in hi• Christmas offering, which has been highly approved of and accepted. The subject selected by Mr. William Cooke is of a most elaborate character. ST. JAMES'S -SQUARE.—REMOVAL OF THE RESERVOIR' —.ln the centre of the garden enclosure of this, the oldest of patrician squares in the metropolis, for many years has existed a large open reservoir or pond, the water be ing let off at intervals, and renewed by means of machi nery. For som e ti me past much o bj ection has arisen from the inhabitants to the continuation of the reser voir, as being more a ndisance than an ornament, from the fact that i n s till weat h er, li ke that of the present season, it attracts all the soot and offensive matter that would otherwise escape,And which remains on the sur face for a time, afterwards settling on the sides or bot tom of the basin. The prevailing epidemic has more directly, no doubt, called the attention of the committee of the square, consisting of his Grace the Duke of Nor folk, the Lord Bishop of London, the Marquis of Bristol, and Earl de Grey, to the consideration of its improve ment or removal ; and acting upon the advice of Mr. Roberts, their surveyor, the whole of the water has been t fresh ha It doubtlesstg h r e a s s s bt aeplotmore a n b t e fragrantiin3og o l laidof and i;da water rhe genial ha s la u tt r of hasa tche h earth, a e , drawn off, an d t h e open space filled up wit for iwr ihh so iacbi ai l ' aw a n n itl y sl years been suffered to exist.
