Monstrous heresy! Flagrant assault on the exclusive privileges of rank and blood ! So would ex claim an aristocrat of the old school. But, thank GoD, the youthful generation of our nobility are, many of them, of a different mettle to their more bigoted sires! The striking historical vicissitudes of the last half century and upwards have not been regarded by them with indifference; they have derived valuable lessons from the stirring events that have been passing in the world about them ; they have seen the broad cur rent of public opinion pressing on, in spite of all the dams and locks that aristocracy conjointly with priestcraft has set up to check its progress; and seeing this, they have wisely and nobly resolved to fall in with the temper of the times, and to become conspicuous among their fellow-countrymen rather by their intellectual wealth than the lucky accident of birth, since, after all, intelligence is the only true lasting power—the power that moulds individuals and nations—that hurls down the showy Falsehood, how ever exalted be the pinnacle whereon it is perched, and uplifts the sterling Truth, no matter how humble or disregarded be its position among men. We say no more than the strict truth, when we say that by far the best speeches at the Manchester Athenmum were made by those who were the most distinguished among the meeting by their posi tion in society ; and we may search among the re cords of Parliament for the last ten or a dozen years, without finding such displays of the truest and purest eloquence—that, namely, of thought and sentiment— as characterised the orations of Messrs.

There are no such livlelo ;re l iersonifications of the Dogberries and the Vergeses, whose immortal prototypes were designed by the hand of SHAE-• SPEARE nearly two centuries ago, as the judicial func tionaries of our provincial jurisdictions. Among these provincial jurisdictions, it has always been a question with us whether any could e xcee d, i n th e extravagance of their pretensions and the absurdity of their deportment, the courts of our Channel Islands ; the mighty Manx Parliament (this latter wielding, like ST. PETER, the powers of certain obso lete " Keys), and our multifarious manorial and other local courts. But the Royal Court of the little ditch and-orchard-divided island of Jersey has removed all doubt and difficulty on the subject from our minds, by clearly establishing a pre-eminent title, in a case recently pending before it, to occupy the very first rank on the records of this unenviable notoriety. It has now approved its own superior ignorance of the local law itself administers, and of the common-law of the mother country. It has shown an utter want of self-respect in the petulance of its bench and its officers; and an utter want of respect for the undoubted rights and privileges of English men, throughout every portion of the widely-ex tended dominion of Great Britain, ;by the bare faced and tyrannical violation of these privi leges and rights in the person of an Eng lish gentleman, a sojourner (to his misfortune) among the men of Jersey. Mr. CARUS Wm. SON, whom most men who have resided lo e g . i n London may remember as " the long gentleman in spectacles," has been unlucky enough, it seems, to get involved in some squabble with the petty - authorities of this " islet." With the particulars of the squabble, or the printed reflections that led to it, it is not necessary for our purpose to meddj e at all. Mr, WILSON may afford to have them 0:11 taken as agab st himself, and as establishing a good and equitable ground for the prosecution ins'Atuted against hiw by LE Su cult. We are far from intimating that the fact is so ; but were the hspothesis even admitted, it could make no difference in the very serious delin quency of which Mr. WILSON has to complain. On the former bearings, Mr. WiesoN, who evi dently has his •orofessional wits about him, took various objectio ns to the pleadings before the court, its competen' e y to try them, and other matters which he mooted with so much address and effect, as mate rially to disorganise the equanimity of his judges. The overweening nationality of the islanders is not the least remarkable feature in their moral compo sition. These judges were, we apprehend, Jersey men, and Mr. 'WILSON, after taking many objections, more or less formidable to the prosecution, had completed the measure of his offence by imputing to them a bias or prejudice against him. They found WiLsoN too strong in his constitutional and technical objections, to settle the matter in their off-hand Jersey fashion. The further hearing was adjourned until two or three days since, when Mr. WILSON took a preliminary objection to the con tinued proceeding, on the very substantial grounds, founded on the express terms of a local Act regulating and defining the law of these matters, that himself and co-defendant had not been legally summoned, and that the cause itself had not been regularly entered and brought on. This objection was sustained and il lustrated by the island Solicitor-General, but affirmed on the plea in rejoinder on behalf of the plaintiff that the practice of the court of late years had authorised such deviations from the law (a law, as the Times well observes, "as yet scarcely ten years old"). That the objection came too late, was no answer to the original vice of the proceeding as being contrary to law; and an unrepealed expressed law of so recent a date could not be overruled by vicious or lax practice. But further. more, the court itself was composed of the Bailli and two jurats, all of whom had been previously " re cused," or challenged, by WILSON, on the ground of personal animosity to him. Now, we entreat the reader to observe-1. That the challenge was good at law ; 2. That another jurat has formally declared, that after it had been recorded, these parties ought not to have assisted at all at the hearing of the cause. On their return into court, and when they were about to read their decision on this plea, reduced into writing, Mr. WILSON made a protest against " that act being read." Those terms, we affirm without hesitation, embodied as sound principles of law, expressed in language as concise, temperate, and proper as it was possible for any man to em ploy under such circumstances. But then, it seems, that Mr. WiesoN's manner, in uttering them, was too energetic ! Mr. WILSON, who had over and again, from time to time, sent them back t re-consider the mistakes of practice and construction they were committing in dealing with his case—who had been subjected to very gross and personal re flections from LE SUEUR, without the Court's once interposing to check them—whose very protest was grounded on the plea of personal animosity to hur l. , in these men, his " judges"—he was too anitr, at , d and energetic for the nervous susceptibilities of t h ese Channel Island Rhadamanthuses. M. T BAILLI - high officer desired him to sit d own , an d the sal,e Gene - ml for his o pi n i on 'tied employ e d. Th e then appealed to the Attorney of the language which W ILSON latter again interposes to rep:est that he will speak in English. But what says, this officer of an English Sovereign, in an English possession, responding to an English subject, eeid suitor in her MAJESTY'S courts of law ? As if. the example of Dogberry turnulence were irresieale, he, too, takes a long inflation, lend with eqilal pomposity and forgetfulness, or ignorance of Lis duty, to his fellow-subject, " declines to do that, under the c i rcums t ances, wh i ch he mint do, as an act of courtesy, but is not bound te) do." Of " courtesy," truly ! We should like to know what an insular Attorney-General's notions of courtesy may be ; his notions of law are elearly not worth the collecting ; but we hope some other party, if Mr. WILSON should omit to do so, will have the "courtesy " to bring this strange declaration under the notice of her MA JESTY ' S G overnment, or of the I Imperial Parliament. Mr. Attorney was at that moment about to move, and did proceed to move, in language the defendant could not understand, that defendant should be committed and criminally punished. Next, the Registrar was about to take, down only part of Mr. WiLsores protest, till !'eat gentleman enforced the addition of the omitted (and concluding) words. On the motion of the same illus trious Attorney, he was then condemned "to pay a fine of 101. to her MAJESTY, and demand pardon of the court." Mr. WILSON, much to his honour, flatly refused to do either the one thing or the other, having already protested against, the w'liole pme ee ei n " under the auth o rity o f a statute. He - was then ' amidst the insolent an d indecent uproar of the native I THEATRE ROYAL LYCEUM LATE ENGLISH OPERA. HOUSE. Under the Management of Mrs. KEELEY.

The great meeting which took place on Thursday last at the Manchester Athenreum, of the various literary societies and mechanics' institutes of that and the neighbouring towns, is one of those signs of the times which it is impossible to contemplate without the sincerest satisfaction. Men of all parties and shades of party here met as on neutral ground : political asperities were laid aside ; the Conservative fraternised with the Whig, and the Whig with the Radical ; the aristocratic landowner rejoiced to bold out the right hand of good-fellowship to the humbler manufacturer, and coveted no other distinction than such as night be awarded to him for his intellectual powers. It was delightful to see such men as Lord JOHN MAN 'grits, and Messrs. SMYTHE and D'ISRAELI, who occupy a high position in society, abandoning all conventional claims to notice, and desiring only to produce an impression on their Manchester hearers by the lustre of their eloquence, the force of their reasoning, and the truth and elevation of their sentiments. The speeches delivered by these gentlemen— more especially those of Messrs. D ' ISRAELI and SMYTHE—are among the most impressive we have read for many a long day, exhibiting not merely a copious flow of poetic imagery, very rarely to be met with in these days of matter-of-fact Utilitarianism, but giving utterance to valuable truths not less lofty than fervent and gene rous in their character. But twenty short years ago, how would the proud, exclusive aristocracy of England have started—how would their conventional preju dices regarding rank and pedigree have been shocked—had one of their own equestrian Order presumed to hold langu age lik e this at a meet ing of mere Manchester manufacturers :—" Gentle men, the very Ambassadors now sent to us from foreign courts are, so many reproaches to our neglect of letters. Who is the Ambassador from Russia ? A man who has risen by his pen. Who is the Ambassador from Sweden ? An author and a historian —the historian of British India. Who is the Ambassador from Prussia ? An author and a professor. 'Who is the Ambassador from Belgium ? Again, a man who has risen by literature. Who is the Ambassador from France ? An author and a his torian. Who is the Ambassador from, I had almost slit], our fellow-cou n t rymen in America ? Again. an author and a professor !" Independent, high_ ni ;„ ( i sc i language like the above is en oug h to make the hone; of an aristocrat of the old excl us i ve school shake in . th e i r ancestral tomb. What, a member of hia own audience, whose gestures and applauses were not even rebuked by either Verges or Dogberry—M. LE BAILLI or his Lieutenant-Jurat—conducted to the public gaol under the escort of some strange island functionary called a "Deputy Viscount" (Heaven defend us from such a Lilliput aristocracy !), and after being exposed on his way to the yelling exul tation of sundry unwhipped boys and men, subjected to the most rigorous and scandalous severity of treat ment, the most unmanly and oppressive vexations which personal resentment seems to have been capable of infusing into the most insolent exer- I . , ,cise of the most ill-administered authority. Exhibitions like these—could we forget the personal sufferings and annoyances of Mr. WiLsox in the meantime—might amuse all of us who are alive to the exquisite absurdity of "grave fooling." It is very certain that nothing is more supremely absurd than the strutting dignity of official power, in some little out-of-the-way corners, where it fancies itself playing GENGHIS-KHAN in an empire comprisei within a few square miles of territory parcelled out into freehold estates of a few square yards. But the rights and liberties of Englishmen must not be exposed to the pranks of these pantomimic eccentricities. It is high time that the British Legislature should sweep away the inconvenient and unsightly barbarisms of a former age, and a rude people, in its more minute possessions. They are like old disused habiliments of former cen turies, whose strangeness may amuse the curious, but whose fettering and iron bondage it would be en act of insufferable tyranny to impose on the free:limbs of living men, accustomed to the unimpeded use of the faculties they derive from nature, and exercise under the guarantees of an enlightened civilisation. Madrid journals of the 27th ult. have been re ceived. The Gazette contains two decrees for effect ing savings in the IVar Department —one reducing the supplies allowed for the equipment of recruits, and the other for suppressing the military libraries established last year. The saving is reckoned at 12,000,000 reals. The QUEEN was to open the ses sion of the Cortes at the Palace of the Senate, not, as had been the custom, in the Hall of the Deputies. On the 16th the French had evacuated the island of Mogadore, and next day all their ships of war had left for Algesiras. The Three per Cents. were done at 281 for cash, and 28f at 60 days; the Five per Cents. at 201 for cash, and 21 at 60 days ; the Floating Debt at 66 at 60 days ; the Debt without Interest at 61 for cash, and time. On Thursday afternoon the King and Queen of the FRENCH, Madame ADELAIDE, and the Duke DE MONTPENSIISR left St. Cloud for the Chateau d ' Eu. They were accompanied by the greater portion of the members of the Court, who will accompany Lous PHILIPPE on his visit to England. M. GUIZOT a.nd Admiral DE MACKAU were to leave Paris on Sunday for Eu, where they will join his MAJESTY. The QUEEN and Madame ADELAIDE will remain at Eu till the return of the KING from England. They are all expected to be back in Paris by the 20th of this month. The Duke DE NEMOURS, the Prince DE JOINYILLE, the Duchess of ORLEANS, the Duchess DE NEMOURS, the Princess DE JOINVILLE, and the Duke and Duchess of SALE COBURG, will remain at St. Cloud during the absence of his MAJESTY. Some of the papers state, that at a Council of Ministers held on ' Wednesday, an ordinance was passed con ferring upon the Duke of NEMOURS all the powers of royalty during his MAJESTY'S absence, and ap pointing him Lieutenant-General of the Kingdom. These functions are not to be exercised but in a case of extreme necessity, and the act is a mere measure of precaution. The Constitutionnel says, "We are assured that the Minister of War has just dispatched to the generals commanding the military divisions particular instructions relative to the KING'S ap proaching absence from France." The Siecle and National have two brief articles particularly fitted to keep up a bad feeling between England and France at the time Louis PHILIPPE is about to pay a friendly visit to Queen VICTORIA That from the Siecle is not entitled to the slightest credit, but we give it as follows, to show• the mis chievous spirit which prevails among certain parties in France :—" Sir ROBERT WILSON, Governor of Gibraltar, openly says that the peace concluded be tween France and Morocco will not last ; he is trying to enlist all the refugees and adventurers he can find for Morocco ; he promises them money and rapid promotion. On the other hand it is well known that he is employing every means to irritate the Emperor ABDERRHAMAN against, us. It is the same Sir ROBERT WILSON who, in order to dispel the fear which a war with Spain might give to Morocco, has negotiated and procured peace between these two Powers. Sir R. WILSON displays in all these mea sures, and betrays in his language, too much perse vering animosity to permit of one s supposing that he is acting without the English Government's approba tion." The following is the article in the National:— , " England has required from our Ministers that they should conclude peace with Morocco, without taking the precaution or receiving the guarantees usual in such cases. We possessed points of occupation on the coast of Morocco, which would have served as a pledge. We abandoned them because England was mistrustful of our rr arlike ardour, ant feared that, by retaining possession of Mogadore until the execution of the treaty concluded with Morocco, we might infringe on the balance of power in Europe. The French Government obeyed. We may, therefore, be accused hereafter of many crimes, but cer tainly not of ambition in the style of Napoleon. The English, however, whose, moderation is proverbial, and who, as every one kliows, respect the European equili brium, are lab,',,uring to secure the monopoly of the passage across the Isthmus of Suez. They have al ready marked out their stations by fortified houses be tween the two seas, and they are now about to con struct a railroad, by which they will retain possession of the two extremities and monopolise the road. This is the fifth pacific conquest which we would be wrong to attribute as a crime to the ambition of the Bri tish Government, for what can be more philanthropic than to connect the least with the west by means of a railroad ; and why not return thanks to the Power which is willing to become the gatekeeper of the commercial wicket between the two worlds ? But this is not all. There is in the other hemisphere another isthmus which separates the Atlantic from the Pacific Ocean, and the piercing of which has for a long tim.• occupied all the nations of Europe. The English have consequently directed their eyes to that quarter. They have considered that if ever the Isthmus of Panama gave a passage to vessels from Europe proceeding to China or to India, it would be well for them to have the key of it. They have in consequence, without noise or without consulting any Government, adjudicated to themselves an entire kingdom. It may be recollected that England blockaded, without any plausible pretext, the port of Saint Jean de Nicaragua, and no complaint was made. .he now takes possession of the entire kingdom of Mos quito. If the piercing of the isthmus be practicable, she will effect it, not for the advantage of commercial na tions, hut for their own. This mode of proceeding is 2onfortutNe to the genius of England, and we cannot be astonished at the comphisance with which our rul7rs reo.rd t O" he successive encroachments of th e grea t U M° P er.

The number of persons to be 'Anvited to dinner will not exceed 1,300. The viands, Zvi :es, plate, seats, &c., are to be done by contract. and tenders have been sent out to six of the most eminent houses in the City for the purpose of ascertaining the amount per head. The collation is to be cold. Accord ing to the 'Present arrangements, it is intended that her 1 Majesty should enter at the west-end of the building. It is impossible to finish every part of the works ; the por tions left unfinished will, therefore, be covered with crimson cloth. As the time is too short for the statue of her Majesty to be finished, it is arranged that the model shall be fixed up for the occasion, and it is now undergoing a process of enamelling, to make it appear like marble. The large commemoration medal, to be presented to her Majesty, the Royal Family, and others, will not be ready, but the smaller silver medal, of the size of half-a-crown, is already finished, and will be given to the company who are invited. —Observer.

The editors and colonists continue to dwell upon the injustice of the land regulations just pro mulgated, and state that in Port Phillip the whole of a settler's property is centered in Government land, he is not allowed to purchase a homt stead, and he is compelled to build upon, fence in, and cultivate the land which he holds upon license. Now it must be evident that the most industrious settler will be he who will suffer most by the new regulations. He will run the risk of being ex• polled from house and home every twelve months. / fle spends 100/. in improvements the one year, he wi. be compelled to purchase these very improvements every year afterwards, or accept the alternative of aban doning his property to another without a penny of com pensation, and go forth into the world an exiled beggar, to curse the abominable tyranny of a grasping, unprin cipled Government. If such a system be carried out in the spirit ill which it is conceived, the tree Sons of Australia Felix may live to envy the lot of the serfs of Siberia. But hearths and homes are not so easily abandoned, and Go vernments frequently learn by bitter experience what they cannot gather from the voice of reason or argu ment. If the system be carried out as it has been con ceived, the whole interior of Australia Felix will become a desert, it will be abandoned as quickly as it has been occupied. The aborigines will be restored to their rights, and the settler will melt down his property in order to realise as much as will pay his passage to some other country where the " brigand" system of govern ment is not in operation. The Australians seem very anxious that their friends in the mother -country should aid them in their endea vours to obtain from Lord Stanley a modification of the unwise measures proposed. No less than four coasting vessels from Sydney had been wrecked within a short time, and it was hoped, as the natives had made the most strenuous and successful exertions to save the crews, and manifested the best feeling towards the white man, the Government would not be slow to reward them.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 2.—His 'Majesty, accompanied by Mr. Conway, will set out to-morrow for his seat at Ardenne. His Majesty will return to Brussels at the end of next week. The Governor of Brabant has just informed the magistrates of communes, that as it is possible that various ecclesiastical and other establishments may be entitled to claim, from the Government of the Netherlands, copies of archives, and documents, con formably to the stipulations of the convention con cluded at Utrecht, of the 19th of July, 1843, he invites them immediately to send him a statement of their claims. R. Cootes the celebrated runner of London, per formed yesterday at two o'clock, some extraordinary feats on the esplanade, near the Namur-gate. He ran two kilometres, walked one kilometre, wheeled a barrow one kilometre, walked backwards one kilo metre, trundled a hoop for one kilometre, hopped on one foot one hundred metres, leaped over twenty-five harriers at the distance of ten metres from each other, made twenty-five summersets, picked up forty stones laid in a straight line at the distance of °Le metre from each other, awl carried them to a basket placed near the first stone. All this was to be done in sixty minutes. The English man performed it in fifty-eight and a half minutes. It was for a wager of 400 francs. These feats at tracted a great crowd of spectators. RUSSIAN FRONTIERS, SEPT. 24.—1 n letters from several parts of Russia we find bitter complaints of the population not belonging to the Greek Church of the encroachments on their religious li berty by the Russian Church. In order to induce the United (the Catholic) Greeks to join the Greek Church, all imaginable methods they say are tried; frequent use is made of the following, in particular : —First, the building of churches and the formation of parishes of the not united religion; second, grants of confiscated lands to Roman Catholic subjects, on the solemn promise to have all their children edu cated in the schismatic faith; and, third, exemption from military service, or an abbreviation of the 25 years' service for those who acceded to the Greek Church.

Preparations are talked of on every side for a splendid entertainment to be given to the officers who will attend his Majesty Louis Philippe to this country. We believe several plans are in contemplation, on an , unprecedently magnificent scale. One is a grand ball and supper in the Royal Naval College, to be got up by the officers of our navy exclusively, five or six day's pay from each officer being subscribed for the ' purpose of conducting the entertainment upon the most hospitable and brilliant scale. This certainly would amount to a handsome sum, the number of naval officers now at the port in commission being considerable. Another plan is the erection of a very large tent, capable of holding conveniently about 2,000, in which to give a ball and supper, also upon a superb but less exclusive scale, naval, military, and civil officers being reported the projectors. Of course, many rumours are afloat respecting what will and ought to be done to give eclat to the visit of so im portant a personage as the King of the French, the above, among the rest ; but a few days will determine which is the right. The guns of the platform saluting battery have undergone two courses of paint, as also those of the Kings bastion, in anticipation of the royal visit ; but whether this will prevent the French officers from seeing how wretchedly they are pointed we much doubt. Certainly they are on the peace establishment. Spithead begins to look lively, and with a few line of bAttle ships, in addition to the five brigs of the experimental squadron now at anchor and the other three which will shortly join them, together with the Firebrand and another fine steam-frigate or two, will look imposing, and confirm the celebrity which has long been given to that matchless road stead.—Hampshire Independent. His Majesty Louis Philippe, who, in early youth, bore the title of the Duke de Chartres, was, with his brothers and sisters, educate at home under the direc tion of Madame de Geniis, a lady well known as the writer of several agreeable works of fiction. The young Prince entered the army early ; he was at the battles of Gemappes and Valmy, in which the French were victorious. Dumourier, who after the death of Louis XVI., was appointed General in Chief of the Republican armies, found so much discretion and prudence in the young Duke, that he formed the project of overthrowing the Republican Government, and placing on the throne the Duke de Chartres, who was at that time one of his Aides-de-camp. For this purpose, Dumourier entered into secret negotiations with the chiefs of the Austrain army ; hut the dreadful defeat of his troops at Derwinden excited the suspicion of the National Convention ; he was deserted by his own soldiers, and reduced to pro. vide for his safety by flight. The young Duke ac companied him, and upon the death of his father, which took place shortly afterwards, he took the title of Duke of Orleans. A few years before the fall of Napoleon, he allied himself, by marriage, to the Bour bons of Naples ; and the present Queen of the French is the aunt of the Duchess of Berry and of Christina, the ex-Queen of Spain. After the battle of Waterloo, the Duke of Orleans became a great favourite with the liberal chiefs, owing to the good opinion entertained of him by Napoleon. At the same time, the high tone of morality that reigned in his own family was praised by all. The Parisian saw with delight his sons frequenting the public colleges and zealously pursuing their way to scholastic honours, as if their father had been but a private gentleman ; the leaders of the Op position were always welcome at the Palais Royal. At the death of General Foy, his Majesty sent 400/. to the subscription then raising to erect a monument to his memory; and when the celebrated Casimir de la Vigne was, on account of a piece of poetry too liberal in its sentiments, dismissed from his post of librarian by Count de Peyronet, the Minister of Justice, the Duke of Orleans offered to the poet a similar situation at the Palais Royal. Thus by several deeds of well-directed liberality, the Duke of Orleans ingratiated himself considerably with the French nation.—Observer. MARYLEBONE VESTRY• THE OXFORD-STREET PAVEMENT. It having been reported throughout this district, for some days past, that it was the intention of the Vestry to take up some of the wood pavement laid down in Oxford-street, and to replace it by granite, the old contest between the advocates of wood and stone was likely to be renewed with as much ever.ani wtheeekglyuTemshteieeotn expectedtmh ani mosityt 83u aa usual weekly i p n r g o , c o e end iSaturday , ngs of t the when Vestry itwas t would There was a tolerably be determined, w ere looked to with much interest. full attendance of vestrymen. Sir Peter La urie , whose interest in the subject is well known, wa s amongst the first who arrived. At eleven o'clock, Mr. Lord was called to the chair, and the Secretary read the accounts of the week, and the minutes of the last meeting. The only important part of the minutes was the resolu ipciptrionuaortpisenetrsfinetorif.no)osvirn,iroonflthatatwnahksvdeoasiinzirglge,asoeyaounbliddepti:gpanttalhhlrydaepeotinur‘wievtenenonetcotih,ovdagneatdsrpea,tgagnhtvohuieeotaeemdmtnetedithnne,eletuoaotelliefrknostsf.hbOteermxyrifeseoThorsraenohddi Oxford street, from Well-street to Charles -street (Stead's ocplfifuorr condemned hastily comeianityeimisre presentation nn wood oda o dtngtol pavement gone round reryo, Saturday_ ue nn (dt,tgheeae nr t p: o ur take ab l3c, .p r u e p sNs this a ,ns press --and that aa meritsestion o o f t to d o iri g e r r e e a n t t im k p in o d r s tan o c f e p to as t e .e rn d en is t po , s v e a d s com parative gllhear.) The one of great importance to the public, and he wished it to be understood that in agreeing to this resolution, and confirming the minutes, they were expressing no ()Onion upon wood pavement generally.—(Hear.) Ihe pavement in question had been down five or six years, and as the surveyors reported that it required to be taken up, he thought it would be right to re place it by granite, because it happened to be placed between two patches of granite.—(Hear.) A VESTRYMAN said that the advocates of wood paVettietit Always wished to have it girded by rows of granite, and could not complain that the specimen in question had not had fair play, because it was bordered by granite. Mr. Jostru agreed with his friend Mr. Wilson in thinking the minutes should be confirmed, but it was not right on that account that the public should be mitle 4 by the supposition that the Vestry was op. posed to wood pavement.--(heat',) He believed that if a fair examination were made into the subject, it would be found that this had been for the many years it had been down, the cheapest pavement the parish ever used.--(Hear.) Sir PETER LAURIE said that the gentlemen oppo site made a merit of necessity on this occasion, as they knew they had not the slightest chance of maintain ing the wooden doctrine, and rescinding the resold• tion.—(Hear, and a laugh.) He was very glad that the subject had been taken up by the press, as that was the best way to open the eyes of the public to its real merits.—(flear.) If the people of Oxford-street thought the wood pavement a luxury, it was too much to expect that the rest of the district which had no relish for such a luxury should have to pay for it.— (Hear.) There was the finest street in the world, Regent-street, until it got the wood pavement — the world, the Life Guards, which had not gone down (Laughter)—and there was the finest regiment in Regent-street since July last, and never would go down it again whilst it was paved with wood. A VESTRYMAN observed that the worthy Knight was mistaken ; and, as we understood, the inconve nience of the dung was the cause of, the Guards not taking that route, so much pains being taken to keep the pavement free from that annoya n ce. A VESTRYMAN said that the pavement referred to in the resolution was rotten, and the surveyors not only recommended its removal, but that granite should be substituted for it. Mr. WILsoN denied that he had any prepossession in favour of wood, but as the worthy Knight had re ferred to Regent-street, he would say that he thought the people of Oxford-street had as good a right as those of Regent -street to their pavement being kept clean and in good order.—(llear, hear.) But the fact was their comfort was very much neglected.—(Hear.) Sir PETER LLURIE said that the cleansing of Ito gent-street daily was the result of a private arrange ment between the inhabitants and the Board of 'Woods and Forests. Mr. CLARK said that when it was proposed to take measures fur cleansing Oxford -street similar to those used in Regent-street, inquiry was made as to the expense, and it was found to be enormous.—(Hear.) There was no doubt that Regent -street was the best kept of the wooden pavements. But was it a reason that the rest of the parish should pay for Oxford street because the Woods and Forests paid for Re gent-street—(Hear, hear)—and kept it as neat as a drawing-room ?—(Hear) If that were done for Ox ford-street, the rest of the district would require the same attention. Tichfield-street, and Princes-street, and other streets, would demand a wooden pavement, so great was the rage for it. Sir P. LAURIE—Oh, not now. That fit is all over —(Laughter, and cries of "No, no.") Mr. CLARKE proceeded to argue the granite was far superior to the wood for paving, and as a proof, referred to the state of Rathbone-p]ace. After further conversation much to the same effect, the minutes were confirmed, and the Vestry proceeded with the routine business of the day. SPORTING IN TELLIGENCE. GORTON RACES—FRIDAY.

All en i s still the primes tenor ( ' Leffler primo basso, an d Mademoiselle Na u ' from the Academie Royal de Musique, is pima donna. This lady made her debut last even; ing in th e opera of Lucia . di Lammermoor, and ne ve r have w e w i tnessed a more successful debut than that . of Mad emo i se ll e N au. H er person is fine and Cl?nl mantling, and her features well formed and expressive: Her voice is high soprano of the Persiani character; it has great power, and is cultivated to the high es pitch of excellence. Her op en i ng cavat i na , " Ancni. at non giunse," was a perfect t r i ump h o f ar t, 0 14 ", once stamped her as the prima donna absoluta. pressiun, power of voice, taste, cultivation, musi c , knowledge, and immense po we r o f execu ti on, a ll ti were exhibited by M a d emo i se ll e N an.

Very exqu i site l y , too, did s h e gi4 the opening scena of the second act, " II palla funel oviendo," with En r i co , a lth oug h we cou ld h ave wish,ec, that she had b een more sufficiently supported 7; 7 0 Leffler, who was occasionally hoarse, and v v seemed by no means at home in the part of Enrico. The concludi ng scena was a l so magnificently give-ni both as a musical and a histrionic effort ; it Witg the very highest order. The powers of executl°,- she exhibited were marvellous.

The house " crammed to the ceiling from the commencemen t the evening. The National Anthem was sung nt. oe ci conclusion of the opera, the solo parts being susta i ., ij a by Madame Peron, Mademoiselle Nau, Allen, Leffler. QUEEN'S THEATRE. • Last evening Mr. Hudson Kirby represented the ch e f racter of Sir Giles Overreach, in Massinger's P irL Ybio A .Ncur Way to Puy Old Debts. The performance of too very difficult character was admirable, and Was, i tlet perfect and artistical than his representation of 1 °7 0 05 on Monday night. We have seldom seen the avar ici br knight so well represented, and it is evidently to racters such as these, in which great energy is re(l l) ,. l ., i ie t s that Mr. Kirby excels. His representation of Sir'', the last night was powerful in the extreme, and throug.',6o latter scenes of the p!ay he was greeted with enth„'i sill 'tlY bursts of applause. The characters of Justice vr e for, and Wellborn were exceedingly well played b . l Manders and by Mr. Parry.
