On the Earl of EGMONT'S moving the second reading of .(Sir TuoNtAs) WILSON'S 'state Bill, for the incrosure of Hampstead-heath, an interesting de bate arose. . • Lord VENMA,N, in opposing it, contended that the terms of the will under which Sir Thomas WILSON held this property were so explicit, that there could be no necessity- fur the 13111. He cautioned their Lordships not to be misled by the statement that . this was not an Inclosure Bill, in the ordinary under standing of the phrase; fur at all events, it g a v e Power to certain parties to build over 400 acres of land, now, and fur years past, a constant and favourite resort of thousands of our metropolitan population the power of contributing to whose happiness and enjoyment, by keeping the heath open as at present, the Noble and Learned Lord should have thought might have abundantly outweighed the consideration of any trifling increase that it was proposed thus to produce in the rental of the property. The will of the late •Sir TuomAIVII.3ON had been very unjustly reflected on. IhOught it a most humane one, and that the deceased as much intended to devise to the public the enjoyment of this heath, as he did to be queath any of his other property to his son. Lord CAmnIELL and the Earl of MANSFIELD also prayed their Lordships to reject the Bill. LeLlea "LCIIEStEIt, the Earl of W I CK L O W , an d cfrrEzat4ll Supported it. On a division, there appeared a majority of 11 against the se t ond reading,- and thus the obnoxious Bill was:" lost." A lettit . froin Lord ELLE.-n the thanks of the House for tr:sueGrirvicaeeskrne°nldveircedgibnyg A short discussion took place on Wednesday, in the House of Commons, on the subject of Lord \Volts- LET'S Inclosure Bill. In proposing the committal of the Bill, pro forma, his Lordship observed that he had that day had a communication with the Govern ment respecting it, when he found that, though favourable to it generally, Ministers were, never theless, desirous that it should be very materially altered. The measure does, indeed, require a con siderable degree of alteration, and it is absolutely necessary that it should be watched with the utmost vigilance, not unmingled with a wholesome distrust, for, as it at present stands, it is exceedingly arbitrary in its character, being calculated, as Mr. HOME justly observed, to deprive a large portion of the poorer classes of the community of those few uninclosed lands which still remain to them as their property in common—lands which have hitherto enabled so many of them to keep pigs, and cows, and geese ; over which they have exercised an undis turbed right of pasturage for ages; and on which they have indulged in those manly sports which afford such •infinite recreation. A measure which proposes, no matter in how indirect and circuitous a manner, to trench upon these privileges of the poor, cannot be watched with too much keenness and jealousy, more especially when it is borne in mind that the majority of the House of Commons are by no means very solicitous to promote the welfare of the labouring classes of the community, but consider only, both in their speeches and votes, how they may best adapt themselves to the views of their lord and master, Sir ROBERT PEEL. In its present shape we must confess that we cannot at all bring ourselves to approve of Lord WORSLET'S Inclosure Bill. Doubt less it was framed with the best intentions, and the sincerest desire to benefit the interests of the poor ; but, unfortunately, those interests are left wholly at the mercy of a Commission which is armed with the fullest and most inquisitorial power, and whose responsibility—if we remember rightly, for we have not the Bill just now before us—is not sufficiently defined. Those, too, whose rights—the prescriptive rights of ages—it is proposed to interfere with, have little or no power given them to obtain redress ; they must perforce obey the sovereign behests of the Commission, however reluctant they may be to do so, and however firmly convinced they may be that those behests are injurious to their interests ; and as to the hints about compensation thrown out to them, these— so far as our recollection serves us—are the vaguestand most jesuitical portions of the Bill. Assuredly, on the first blush of the thing, it seems a just and proper scheme to bring as much uncultivated land as possi ble under tillage, and so increase the agricultural wealth of the country ; but there are large tracts of land in many districts which .we could mention, which, however uncultivated they may he, are of infinite value to the poor who reside in their im mediate neighbourhood, and these should not be interfered with, except with the ready and cordial icsonnsoetntthoef s al qu l ir p e a ar rt c i h e y s interested in ed h in s t h h o e ul m d at h te e r.l con sulted on the question, for the inclosure system is to them a mere increase of gain, whereas to the hard worked, ill-fed, Scantily -remunerated labourer, it is an affair of life or death. Deprive such a man of his right to feed his pigs and his geese on the adjacent common, and you deprive him of one of his surest means of livelihood; if he can scarcely keep his head above water even with the aid of this privilege, he can scarcely be expected to do so without it ; and the odds are, that he is very soon compelled to sue as a pauper for admission into a union workhouse. Justly remarked Mr. HUNE, " such a measure as this of Lord WOEtsLEY'S, ought to be a Government measure. It was a Bill that would affect the whole country; and if passed, it would be a great injustice to the labouring classes. Already had two . i." !

In the Commons, a vast number of petitions were presented against and in favour of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. One of these was from a body of Wesleyans, setting forth that, "having examined the Bill," they now found reason to withdraw their former opposition to it, and prayed to be allowed to retract the petition which they had caused to be presented against it. Lord R. GROSVENOR was in a still more embar rassing position. He presented several petitions in favour of, and as many against the Bill, and, having inspected the signatures, found them, numerically, so nearly balanced, that he was unable to inform the House whether he was to consider himself as petition ing for the passing or for the rejection of the Bill ! In answer to a question from Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY, Lord STANLEY said that he had only that morning received dispatches from Demerara, an nouncing the fact, that: an enactment had passed the Legislature of British Guiana, sanctioning the rais ing of a loan, for that colony, in this country. The Noble Lord added, he had not yet received cer tain papers adverted to by Dr. BOWIUNG, as contain ing declarations of the Government of Hong-Kong against slavery and the trade in slaves. Mr. MUNTZ put a question to Sir ROBERT PEEL as to the intentions of Government touching the liability of the Bank of England to pay in gold the 1006,0001. to be issued against securities, or any part thereof, in the event of such a drain of gold as should have the effect of withdrawing from circulation all notes exceeding that amount of issues. Sir ROBERT PIEL, who treated the question as an " untoward one," recapitulated, for answer, the heads of the plan announced by him on the 7th and the 20th ultimo, in that House. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, after the presentation of further petitions, moved the second reading of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. It contained, he said, no provisions that could affect the property of the Wesleyan body, or property of members of the Church of England, for its operation was confined to Dissenters' chapels. The costs of a suit which had now been carried on for fourteen years, had almost absorbed the property in question—and, despite a de cision of the House of Lords, the dispute was no nearer adjustment than it was at that distant period. In reference to the progressive spirit of tolera tion in which the Legislature had relieved various other classes of Dissenters from various dis abilities and penalties, he conceived that Parliament was bound to act in the same tolerant feeling towards Unitarians, to whom if this Bill would give a confirmation of rights Which the present state of the law rendered uncertain, it was idle to fear that it would give encouragement to their doctrine. Her MAJESTY'S Government, in submitting to the House of Commons a Bill which had come down from the Peers, recommended to them by such authorities as Lords BROUGHAM, CAMPBELL, DENMAN, and COT.. TENHAM, and by the LORD CHANCELLOR, had no other object in view but to do justice, and to put an end to a crael, protracted, and vexatious litiga tion. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman went into a lucid and perspicuous statement of the several clauses of the Bill, and the scope and application of their enactments. The details might be discussed in. Committee ; but he hoped the House would unanimously affirm the second reading. Sir R. INGLIS looked upon the subject-matter of the Bill as a question of law and of property. If on that ground alone., he should oppose the measure and he moved "That it be read a second time tha t day six months." Mr. PLUMPTRE seconded the amendment. Mr. MACAULAY supported the Bill, after a power ful appeal, in which he passed a high encomium on the very able and eloquent speech of the ATTORNEY GENERAL. The noble and constitutional doctrine avowed by the Right Hon. Gentleman himself, in vindicating the rights of private judgment, and the claims of religious opinion, cannot be studied, in the perusal of his speech, without deep admiration. Mr. BERNAL and Mr. M. MILNES severally stated the grounds of their support to the Bill ; and, after the House had been addressed by Mr. Fox MAULE, Mr. GLADSTONE, Mr. SHEIL, Sir R. PEEL, and Lord JoHN RUSSELL, in speeches for which we must refer the reader to our Parliamentary report, the House divided; and no less a majority than 190 affirmed the second reading of the Bill ; a majority involving the most signal homage to really sound and liberal principles, in dealing with questions deeply interest ing to the friends of civil and religious liberty, which we have yet had to record of the session of 1844. The Sugar Duties Bill was read a second time : and other business having been dispatched, the House adjourned. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 7, 1844. thousand Inclosure Bills been passed, and the only effect of them had been to give an additional quantity of land to the squirearchy of the country. He could assure the Noble Lord that the labouring poor through out the country "looked upon his scheme with great suspicion." For our own part, we shall watch the progress of Lord Woßsr.Ey's Bill with the utmost care and jealousy, for, after the late discreditable course pursued by the Conservative majority of the House of Commons on the subject of the Factory question, we have lost all faith in their sense of prin ciple and consistency; and most firmly believe that they would even sanction a measure for transporting every tenth poor man in the country, provided that it met with the approbation of Sir ROBERT PEEL. The very term " Conservative" is hateful to us. It is a synonytne for political sycophancy, time-serving, and "trickery of the basest and most bare-faced character. The intelligence from Madrid is to the 29th ult. The state of the young QUEEN'S health excites some apprehension. Her MAJESTY is at Barcelona, from whence an express has been dispatched to Madrid, to summon Dr. CASTILLO, who has been the medical attendant of ISABELLA from her infancy. The publication of a decree, dissolving the Cvrtes, is daily expected at Madrid. The new Ministry is about to rescind the Tobacco Contract. The subject of the official intimation re ceived from M. MON, by the Dire Aors of the Tobacco Company, was that her MAJESTY felt dissatisfied that the administration of so important a branch of the revenue should be confided to persons not officially responsible, and she had, therefore, determined to resume its control. The Three per Cents. were done at 28 3-16 3-16 28 for cash, and 28 , a at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 201 for 30 days ; the Debt without interest at 6 for cash. The Paris papers of Tuesday have been received in the usual course. In the Chamber of Deputies, on Monday, the de bate on the navy was postponed till the estimates should come regularly before the Chamber. The Dcbats gives a long article on the Bank Charter resolutions of Sir R. PEEL. After giving an analysis of the measures proposed, the adoption of which the Debuts regards as inevitable, our Contem • porary expresses its :approbation of the main features which characterise them, and particularly remarks on their tendency to the principle of centralisation — a principle which has raised many objections, but of which the Debuts seems to approve highly. The sentence pronounced on Mr. O'CONNELL fur nishes a subject of remark to several of the French papers. The Opposition journals regard it as at once unjust and severe, and predict that its results will not be those anticipated by the Government. The Globe views with some approbation the firmness which has been exhibited by those conducting the prosecution. The accounts from Algiers are exciting some un easiness in Paris. The report that the Emperor of Moaocco had joined ABD-EL-KADER is confirmed, and the spirit of fanaticism being aroused, the French troops may have hard work before them. " Already," says the Courrier Francais, " has General LAMORP. CIERE concentrated his troops on liernecan, in order to oppose a barrier to the threatened invasion. ABD EL-KADER is on his side indefatigable in training the raw levies, and the preparation of arms, ammunition, and warlike stores by order of the EstrEnon is in cessant. A son of the latter is to have the nominal command of the troops of his father, but ABD-81, KADER is to be the real leader of this new hostile force against the French." The cause of the quarrel seems rather doubtful, one account stating that it had its origin in a disputed boundary; another, that the Emperor of MOROCCO had taken umbrage at the French because he believed that they had intended to take a part against him in his dispute with Spain. M. VICTOR BOUT'ON has written to the National, stating that six of the principal printers of Paris had refused to give him the use of their presses for the publication of a second edition of a popular bio graphy of JACQUES LAFFITTE with the two speeches delivered over his tomb by Messrs. ARAGO and GAR NIEA PAGES. " They were afraid," he says, " that the Government would seize the brochure and prose cute them for publishing the speech of M. GARNIER PAGES." M. BOUION states that he will sue the printers before the Tribunal of Commerce for this in fraction of the liberty of the press. The first bureau of the Chamber of Deputies, which had been called upon to examine the election of M. CHARLES LAEITTE at Louviers, declared on Monday, against its validity by a majority of sixteen to five. The Three per Cents, closed on the Paris Bourse on Tuesday at 81f. 35c. ; the Five per Cents. at 122 f. 20e.; Spanish Actives, '3l-a ; Ditto Three per Cents. 35 ; and the Passives, si. . THE BOURSE—TUESDAY, JUNE 4. and Monte Video, bringing papers to the 23d of March from the former, and to the 21st from the latter, but, ex cept a few Buenos Ayrean accounts of the defeats of their opponents, nothing of interest had been found in them. The siege and blockade still continued, but with little prospect of the city capitulating, and it was thought at Monte Video that Riveira would succeed in en tering and relieving the town. The French admiral had dernsanded of the French residents, who were armed to the number of three thousand in defence of the town, that they should strike their flag and disband, but they peremptorily refused to do so. In tiie general trade of New York no cbangQ worthy of notice had occurred. The exchange on London had reached 109. BRUSSELS PAPERS. BRUSSELS, JUNE 2.—The King presided to-day in a Coun cil of Ministers. A letter from Antwerp, of yesterday, says— " The inundation of Lillo, which was effected on the 25th of October, 1830, will cease to-day, as the new dyke will attain this evening the level of high-water. Then this commune will have been intu:dated for a period of thirteen years, seven months, and six days." A letter from Liege, of the Ist June, gives a distressing account of a great misfortune in the coal-mine of Horloz, caused by an explosion of firedamp on the preceding after noon. Twenty-six persons were burned under the rubbish, and four others were wounded or burnt. BmussEts, Jta , TE 3.—The Chamber of Representatives was engaged to-day with article 2 of the project of law on dif ferential duties. It is decided that the deduction of 10 per cent. should no longer be granted to Belgian ships for the importation of manufactured goods, but that those articles imported by foreign ships should pay 10 per cent. in addition to the duty to which they are liable. A letter from Berlin says:—"Our Government has just purchased a vast extent of land, in the peninsula of Malacca, which belonged to Dr. lioefer, a Prussian missionary and naturalist, who were assassinated some years ago by banditti, in the environs of Calcutta. This property has been sold to the Government by the widow of Dr. Iloefer, at a very high price, the amount of which is not known, but of which 300,000 dollars have al ready been paid on account. The object of the Government in making this purchase is not known, but the general report (which deserves a high degree of probability from the character of the persons through whom the bargain has been concluded), is that those lands in Malacca are intended to be the seat of the Society of Female Missionaries, the formation of which was proposed some time ago by Baroness Eicharn, lady of the Minister of Ecclesiasti cal Affairs and Public Instruction, the special object of which ' is to be the conversion of females to the Christian religion.

By the fast sailing packet-ship Yorkshire, commanded by Captain Bailey, we have received New York papers of the 16th ult., being one day later than those received last week, by the Hibernia steamer. The Yorkshire has, considering the adverse winds which have prevailed during the last three weeks, made a most excellent passage, and brings the large number of fifty cabin passengers.

The news embracing only a single day, does not ap pear to possess any great degree of interest. In Philadelphia, at the latest accounts, all remained, and was likely to continue, perfectly tranquil.

The New York Herald says--" We have now all the principal violinists here, with other musical artists of eminence, and may expect a great music mania for a long time. The congregation of so many great musical attractions at this moment is unfortunate for the legitimate drama, and the success of Mr. Macready's last engagement in tbo United States. The great influx of strangers, however, who are desirous to embrace the only opportunity offered them of seeing this great tra gedian, make his houses welt attended, which would otherwise be thin.

FRANKFORT, MAY 31.—Letters from Poland say that the state of things in the Ottoman empire becomes every day more complicated, and that the intervention of Rus sia is inevitable. Thins have come to such a pass, that either the Cross or the &scent must disappear in Turkey ; it is to be presumed that Europe will not permit Chris tianity to be expelled. Russia alone can take upon it self to execute such an operation, and this operation may be nearer than is suppoyed. As for the going of the Emperor to England, it is well known that his Majesty takes delight in such surprises, which shows the friendly nature of such visits, which, without pomp and ostentation, proceed only from per sonal friendship .and esteem. , MONE Y AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, THURSDAY EVENING. There was a slight decline this afternoon in the value of Consols, but there were very few operations. The rates were 98i to Bank Stock touched 200.

Accounts have been received from the Cape of Good Hope, to the 9th April. The Government Gazette publishes (to gether with two disp: . itches from Lord Stanley to the Governor of this colony) certain letters patent of her Majesty, dated 28th November, 1843, affecting the administration ofjustice in a most important manner. Since the establishment of the Supreme Court in this colony, under the charter of her Ma jesty's predecessor, the highest judicial authority was placed in a state of entire independence of the legislative power in the colony. That independence could only be interfered with by her Majesty, by means of letters patent. Under such a balance in he exercise of the several powers, in respect of the administration of justice, with which the legislative and judicial departments have been vested, the letter patent of her Majesty , placing the Supreme Court under the control of the Legislature of th e co l ony, w ill b e h a il e d b y the public there with a due sense of deep gratitude. It em powers the Governor and the Legislative Council, by ordi nance-- " To make provision for the better administration of jus tice; to alter and amend the constitution of the Supreme Courts, civil or criminal ; to regulate the manner of proceed ing within such Courts, the limits of their jurisdiction, the times and places of holding such Courts, and.the number and functions of the officers for such Courts, the powers and authorities of the judges respectively, and all other matters and things incident to or necessary for the economical, prompt, and effective administration of civil_ and criminal justice. " That no law or ordinance, duly made and passed, shall take effect or have the force or authority of law, until it shall have been confirmed or ratified by her Majesty, unless it shall have been passed by the unanimous votes of the Legis lative Council, in which latter case such ordinance shall take effect from the date of its enactment; her Majesty, however, reserving to herself the right and authority to dis allow it notwithstanding." On the north-eastern frontier the system of horse stealing continued, and the farmers were quite unable to prevent it. its labour power. Table Bay was but I n other g a augmentation respects en ta o e n colony ofi was progressing well, and wanted fuller than usual of French, American, and British vessels. The arrival out of the English. settlers in the eastern part of the colony, in the year IRO,. had been commemorated by a grand dinner and fete at Port Elizabeth. The private advices per West India mail set at rest, ap parently, any hope of the usual supplies of sugar from our colonies in that direction; while St. Domingo and Cuba, b aving been distracted by revolutions and disturbances, will, no doubt, ship off less than usual to "the continental ports. Under these circumstances the new Sugar Bill will not do much for the consumers, although it is 'possible that prices would have been forced - but for its becoming law. The growth of sugar is large enough, if we had but the option of feeding our wants from any source. The Funds have been firm, but very quiet, and there has been an entire absence of speculative business. Consols for special transfer have been 994 to par. The Ascot races have thinned the Stock Exchange.. Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents are 1021 . to 4. The Foreign Bonds are also dull. Spanish Five per Cents. are 234, and the Three per Cents. 344 to I ; Mexican con tinue flat at 35i, owing to the small remittance; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 62. • Shares are not quite so buoyant.

Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice were taken airings yesterday morning in the grounds of the Castle. In the afternoon the Royal Family were again taken in the walks and pleasure grounds. At eight o'clock last evening the august party sat down to dinner, which was served in the Waterloo Gallery. Side-tables were placed round the apartment, on which were displayed a number of the largest and finest shields and salvers of the Royal Treasury; the former embellished with a variety of classical and mythological subjects in basso relievo, and the latter engraved with the Royal Arms, en circled by a deep border elaborately chased. The magnificent chandelier, suspended from the centre of the ceiling, had a very pleasing effect; it is composed of ground glass ornamented with the pattern of the collars and badges of the several Orders of Knighthood of which her Majesty is Sovereign : It has a border of small circular divisions, each containing a single star of the different British Orders of Knighthood. The Queen and Prince Albert, the Emperor of Russia, the King of Saxony, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, sat beneath this chandelier. The tableon which the Royal banquet was placed had been tastefully arranged by Mr: Elliott; her Majesty's table decker, 4nd presented a very elegant and splendid spectacle. Two!rows of gold candelabra, filled with wax lights, extended the entire length inclosing the plateau, on which were epergnes and other centre pieces richly sculptured in gold. Amoing these 'Splendid specimens of art were introduced a number of rare plants in flower, fitted into gold vases. The Magnificent " St; George Candelabrum" formed the principal ornament in the middle of the table, opposite to the seats of her Majesty and her august circle, but two other candelabra of larger size than the rest were placed at both ends. A succession of gold dishes on each side of the table, and other articles, of the same precious material, all richly chased and burnished, added to the surpassing splendour and magni ficence of the banquet. The company included his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia, his Majesty the King of Saxony, their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, the Russian 3linister and the Baroness Brunnow, Baron de Cetto, Bavarian Minister ; Baron Gersdorff, Saxon Minis ter; Baron de Thile, Prussian Chargé d'Affaires; the Duke of Wellington, the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl Delawarr, the Earl of Jersey, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl of Haddington, the Earl of Morton, the Earl of Hardwicke, Lady Peel, Sir Edward Codrington, Sir George Cockburn, Sit Henry Wheatley, Mr. George Edward Anson, Lord Charles Wellesley, the Hon. and Rev.

Lord Wharncliffe returned to town yesterday from Folke stone. Lord Eliot had an interview with his Lordship at the Council-office yesterday. Sir Robert Peel arrived in town yesterday. from his visit to her Majesty at Windsor Castle. The Emperor of Russia manifested a singular trait ofrecognition, on Monday evening last, at the banquet given by her Majesty at Windsor Castle. During the dinner, one of the state pages handed some refreshment to the Emperor, when, on observing bias, his Majesty exclaimed, " How are you, Kinnaird ? Do you remember me ?" " Yes, Sire ?" re plied the astonished page. The Emperor then turned towards the Queen and remarked that he remembered the page well, from having been appointed his confidential attendant, when ho visited England, for the first time, in 1817. TUE EMPEROR OF Russia.—ln consequence of the visit to our shores of the Autocrat of all the Ruasias, every one is naturally anxious to know something of his history ; and some very curious inform a tion may be found in a couple of papers which have appeared in the April and June Numbers of the Nw Monthly•Magazine, where the Emperor's personal history is detailed, with some extraordinary revelations respecting the present Etate of his dominions, his nobles, his serfs, and servants. They are said to be written by one who passed several years in various parts of that colossal empire, and had innumerable opportunities of studying the character of its powerful ruler. They bear the stamp of truth upon them, and cannot.fail to be read with the deepest interest. TUE PORTUGUESE FEMALE UNDER. SENTENCE OF DEATH FOR EMBRACING THE PROTESTANT FAITH.—The Lord Provost of Edinburgh has received the following letter from Lord Canning, Under-Secretary of State for the Foreign Department :—" Foreign-office, May 31, 1844.—My Lord, I am directed by the Earl of Aberdeen to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 28th instant, enclosing a memo rial from the Magistrates and Town Council of Edinburgh, respecting the sentence of death lately passed at Madeira, upon Maria Joaquina, a Portuguese subject, for the offence or having embraced the Protestant faith, or, as appears to have been stated in the judgment passed upon her, for the crimes of heresy and blasphemy. In reply, lam to state to you, that her Majesty's Government have not as yet received any official account of the occurrence in question ; but that the earliest opportunity will be, taken of instructin , r her Majesty's Minister at Lisbon to akeftain thd the . eircum- - stances described in your memorial, and to make in the pro per quarter such a representation as may be fitting, in behalf of Maria Joaquina.—l have the honour to be, &c.

Repeated descriptions have so completely shora the C ' B y P day at Ascot of every particle of novelty, that withent- ,aanyy dereliction of duty we might pass at once to the motor: ..," matter-of-fact details of the sport, were it not that th div, 1 sence of the Queen, mada the more - welcome by the ;, , pointment on Tuesday, accompanied by her it It. tors, gave it an interest that the racing itself failed to arf, duce. It was not unreasonable to expect that the excitoni l of the review would prove' injurious to the attendance, fac t , that it did so to a slight extent is beyond a doubt; in by .. but for the stimulus given to the publi c aPPetiotaid the gratifying announcement in our las t, we to have had to record one of the least a ttrac. b6 " grand days" that it has been our duty to d eß s it if Such, howeaer, Was not tie' case' case l i the morniiii bu t true was cold, showery, and gloomy, in fact arra'thrt o og inviting; but the attraction was not to be resisted, moo the before the arrival of her Majesty, the a:ssemblage en i t p• course, if less numerous than on some aycoasions, w as - fag o ) mense, comprising a phalanx of rank, beauty, an d f that is seldom seen now-a- days at a race meeting. .1 vesti As we intimated yesterda, the arrival of the ro a aß was not expected to take place until after the comaler,,Los, ment of the races ; accordingly, the departure from the m ile tie was so arranged that the cortege entered the newr'llt about two o'clock. Its appearance was hailed with delight about by the company, - and its loyal proess up the coarse che it alf the warmest expressions of ty and attachment towage her Majesty and the Prince Consort, and of respect tova,le"ii, the august personages by whom they were accompena`to These greetings were warmly repeated on the aPPe nT in ot of their Majesties in the royal stand, and were t ho graciously acknowledged. Leaving to the Cou rt reporte,,, task of speaking more in detail, we need me rel y state bet e that the procession consisted of ten carriages and four, ego pony phaeton and pair, preceded, as on Tuesday', by the to of Rosslyn, the Royal Huntsman, and several of her 1110.iesva, grooms with led horses. In the first carriage were he m ,r T o o jesty, the Emperor of Russia, the King of Saxony, aa d , Ili& Albert.

In the others wer+, Grace the Duke of Wellington,' who was loudly cheered,:cia Princes Vassiltchikoff and Radzivill, Count Orloff, Gen d d'Alderberg, M.
