THIS EVENING, avoidance of any superfluous exertion in the way of carrying into effect the project of his Royal Highness the PRINCE CONSORT. Meanwhile it cannot so soon be forgotten that that illustrious personage took occa sion only the other evening, at the banquet given to himself and the municipal rulers of the United Kingdom, to assure those who might be at all nervous as to the position of the affairs of the Exhibition, that everything promised in its regard most prosperously. Such an intimation coming from the lips of Prince ALBERT himself cannot fail to re-assure all those who may hitherto have been dubious as to the good prospects of the enterprise. Instead of look ing forward to some unfortunate termination of a scheme entered upon under the most flattering but illusory auspices, the least sanguine will only have reason to congratulate themselves as members of the community upon the all but absolute certainty of the Exhibition proving ultimately most honourable to the credit of England. That it will redound to the national honour we rest confident not merely from the remembrance of the beforementioned assertion of Prince ALBERT, but from our own perfect reliance on the energy of the English character. That energy we feel persuaded will not be disgraced in the eyes of the whole world by the display of any unwonted niggardliness on an occasion involving the fair fame of the United Kingdom. In a community like ours, a community of merchants and traders holding mer cantile intercourse with the remotest quarters of the globe, it must not surely be said that so little of the ancient spirit of the Anglo-Saxon race survived, that the noblest proposition of a commercial kind made within the memory of the present generation was permitted to languish through a lack of funds, and to falsify the expectations founded upon a conviction of the national enterprise. Never before, perhaps, have the merchants of England been afforded so brilliant an opportunity for displaying their munificence. That opportunity, we believe, will in no case be al lowed to remain fruitless; more especially are we convinced of this from a knowledge that the exhibi tion which the mercantile classes of the United Kingdom are called upon to assist is singularly cal culated to forward their interests. Out of that exhi bition the industrial population cannot fail to evolve advantages such as must manifest themselves more and more perceptibly as time proceeds, exciting the more ingenious by a new feeling of emulation, and encouraging the more plodding by an increased sense of their importance. Under no aspect, in short, can we view the approaching display of the products of art and industry, gathered together from all parts of the four continents, as otherwise than certain to dif fuse the most beneficial influences over the population. Hence, therefore, we are the more peculiarly soli citous to witness the cordial response of the people to the proposal of the PRINCE, a response which can be best articulated through the medium of prompt and generous contributions.

Last Week of Mazeppa. _ _ In consequence of the creweiea &awes to witness the attractive and magnificent Spectacle of Mazeppa, which, with brilliant novelties in the Wonders of the Arena, form the most varied and attractive Entertainments in the Metropolis, it will be continued for a few more nights. The touching jeremiads that day after day are is suing from the agriculturists, that are propounded by Protectionist leaders, repeated by the general herd of Protectionists, and reiterated usque ad nauseam by the Protectionist journals, demand some notice from those who conscientiously advocate free-trade prin ciples, and are strenuously determined to resist to the uttermost the re-imposition of a bread-tax, or, to use the new and more favourite phrase, the estab lishment of import duties on agricultural produce, whether for the purposes of protection or of revenue. We are told by witnesses, put forward by the owners and occcupiers of land, that the cultivation of the soil under the present circumstances of the country, is and must necessarily prove unremunerative ; that ruia inevitably awaits all those who embark their capital in agricultural pur suits; that, in fact, if they persist in carrying on the losing game, they must, sooner or later, come to the Gazette. These may not be the exact words, but they certainly contain the spirit of the observations put forward, at the various bucolic gatherings, by landlords as well as by tenant-farmers, and adopted by all who profess reactionary doctrines and sigh after the good old times of monopoly and class legis lation. The conclusion attempted to be drawn from these premises is, that the lands of England must speedily go out of cultivation—that wheat can not be produced on British ground--and that, therefore, we Foust become dependent on the foreigner for articles of primary necessity for it is impossible to suppose that farmers will continue the production of their commodities at a certain loss. If a manufacturer of woollens or cot- tons ware to find that he had embarked in a hopeless concern, he would withdraw his remaining capital without a moment's delay, turn his attention to some other quarter, and endeavour to invest the residue of his property in some better speculation, from which he might fairly look for reasonable profit and a com. fortable livelihood by the exercise of his honest in dustry. How can it be expected that the manu facturers of " corn" or of " cattle" ,should act dif ferently, or persevere in their exertions when labour cannot meet its just reward ? Before, however, we, who refuse our assent to the taxation of the community for the exclusive benefit of a particular class, agree to the dedtiction, it is neces sary to see that the conditions of the question have been fairly stated, and that it necessarily follows from the premises. Supposing, for the sake of argument, that we yield the first postulate, and admit (which we most positively and unequivocally deny) " that the cultivation of the soil under the present circum stances of the country is, and must necessarily prove, unremunerative," are we not entitled to ask for further inquiry into those " circumstances," and to know how far the untoward result may be ascribed to the parties exclusively interested, to the landlords and tenants themselves, who are acting on a vicious and impolitic system, which renders necessary the begging appeal to the public to tax themselves for the benefit of the whining mendicants, and in order that the erroneous system may be perpetuated ? We are justified in inquiring whether th e owners o f th e so il, th e territo- rial aristocracy, have, as a general rule, abated their rents in proportion to the great appreciation in the ♦alue of money occasioned by the infamous mone tary code which they themselves were the parties to inflict upon a suffering nation, in pursuance of a corrupt compact with the moneyocracy. How can they reasonably expect to obtain the same prices i n a metallic currency, with a gold pound worth 205., which were freely p a id i n a paper currency with a pound worth 13s.—inl a limited and restricted circulating medium, inadequate to the wants and exigencies of the country, as w h en there was sufficient representatives and measures of value, and the supply was proportioned to the actual necessities of the period, to the accumulated wealth and population of the country ? We are entitled to full ac 4 satisfactory answers to these interrogatorie s before we can acknowledge the necessity, or even the propriety, of affording legislative relief to the alleged sufferers. Again, we desire to know whether the landlords hold out every reasonable inducement to tenants tending to the due development of the natural capabi lities of the soil ? Do the owners of land prefer the undue increase of game, that they themselves and their aristocratic friends may slaughter innumerable pheasants, hares, and partridges, at their periodical battues, to the pecuniary interests of themselves and their tenants ? What may be the amount of damage occasioned by these destructive animals to the farmers ? It is unquestionably very great, and we believe that we are fully justified in stating that the occupiers of the soil in many districts would be perfectly willing to do without corn-laws or import duties on agricul- THIS EVENING, Will be produced Lord Byron's gorgeous Spectacle of MAZEPPA and the WILD HORSE.

Pf.:- Ob'entact 2itit _ LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1850. Important documents have very recently been is sued by the Secretary to her MAJESTY'S Board of Commissioners relating to the Exhibition of 1851— documents in one of which Mr. DIGBY WYATT, an nounces that the demands made for spaee by the ex hibitors already greatly exceed the capabilities of the Crystal Palace, and in the other of which he appeals to the public generally to be at once prompt and ge nerous in transmitting their pecuniary contributions, Both of these announcements are deserving of genera attention, and in some quarters of very serious con sideration. The circumstance that the enormous edifice now rising in Hyde-park, almost as magically as the abode of ALADDIN, has already been found inadequate for the reception of the works of in dustry proposed to be displayed in its apartments, is one which augurs admirably for the success of the entire enterprise. -On the opposite hand, how ever, the fact that the Secretary of the Commissioners has found it requisite, or at the least advisable, to make a demand for immediate assistance towards the liquidation of the debts even now incurred to the contractors, justifies us in being really solici tous about the ultimate payment of the large sums essential to the completion of the designed Exposition on a scale of corresponding splendour and magnitude. The alacrity with which exhibitors have come forward with their demands for space in the crystal palace contrasts rather distress fully with the tardiness hitherto evinced with regard to the advance of contributions towards the furnish ing of the necessary disbursements. At the sa me time it must not be imagined for an instant that our anxiety on this head goes to the length of doubt in the earnestness of the subscribers. We have no hesitation whatever in believing that the desired amount will in the end be inevitably forthcoming. All that we dread is lest the community at large may so far procrastinate in the transmission of their contribu tions as to interfere with the energetic proceedings of EWS I \ An NA:11112fil Commissioners.

But there is another point of no less importance than those to which we have already alluded. We must also learn whether the cultivation of the soil is conducted in the most skilful as well as in the most economical manner. Are, then, all the appliances of modern science fairly brought into operation ? Does the farmer avail himself of the various advan stages which were altogether wanting to his prede cessors ? We fear that the answers to these ques ions will not be more satisfactory than those relating to currency and game. Every man seems to con sider that he is " born a farmer," that he has only to follow oa the beaten track, that he may neglect the obvious expedients for increasing the quantity and quality of his produce and yet that his business should prove profitable. What, we ask, would be thought of a cotton manu facturer who imagined that he could dispense with the machinery and improvements invented during the last half century ? who repudiated "spinning jennies,' and continued to pursue the system that bad become obsolete ? Would such a man be deserving of pity ? Would he be entitled to demand legislative assistance, or to have a tax imposed on calicoes for his protection ? Most assuredly not. He would be justly regarded as an " imbecile," and his clamorous petitions would be treated with well-merited scorn. But this is what the agriculturists expect. They vainly imagine that their business should be ren dered so profitable by means of " protection" that they may support themselves and families with little exer tion of mind or body, that a careless and slovenly mode of cultivation should answer all their purposes. Lord STANLEY, in his celebrated speech at Bury, de clared that "he had seen lands in such a state of absolute neglect that he had stared with astonishment when told what was the amount of rent which the late tenant was nominally engaged to pay out of such land." But the faineants, who act in this culpable manner, most probably ascribe their losses to the abolition of protection, and are the most clamorous for its restoration. It is a comfortable creed to be able to shift the blame from their own shoulders to any other quarter. Before, however, their demands can receive any attention, they must show that they have done everything practicable on their own behalf, that their losses are the result of misfortune and not of their own faults. Until that is the case, Parliament will reply to their petitions in the language of 11EacuLEs to the waggoner—Aides toi, le ciel taidera. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. • We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Commission of Permanence assembled on , Monday, under the Presidency of M. Duette, and adjourned to Thursday, as the differences between the Bourbonists and the PRESIDENT have been tem porarily arranged, by the latter pledging himself to continue General CHANGARNIER in his command, whilst the former will not insist upon the immediate dissolution of the Society of the 10th of December. The PRESIDENT was much irritated :when he read the order of the day of General CHANGARNIER, and proposed his immediate dismissal, but his Ministers were so terrified at the probable consequences of such ' a step, that not one of them would countersign the de cree. The PRESIDENT then determined to dismiss • his Ministry, and call to his councils men of firmer nerve; or of more honesty of purpose than the old Bourbon clique of LA HITTE aril Co., but he suf fered himself to be mollified by a quasi apology offered by CIIANGLRNIER, who called at the Elysee on Monday for the purpose of offering explanations as to issuing the order of the day. A temporary reconciliation is therefore patched up between the Elysee and the Tuileries, and, as an " outward and visible sign" of a cessation of hostilities, the PRESIDENT and the General are to dine together at M. DUPIN'S. The Bourbonists consider this a vic tory, and both the Legitirnatist and Orleanist jour nals, including the Ordre, the organ of ()DILLON BARROT and TRIERS, " snub" the PRESIDENT ac cordingly, and threaten him with all sorts of punish ments should he attempt to emancipate himself from the thraldom in which they believe they hold him. General CRANGA RNIER has published the follow ing Order of the Day on the appointment of Ge neral CARRELET to the place of General NEU• MATER : " By a decree of the President of the Republic, dated the 29th of October", General Carrelet, commanding the 7th military division, is called to the command of the Ist, vice General Neumayer, promoted to the superior com mand of the 14th and 15th divisions. In communicating this arrangement to the troops, the General-in-Chiet doubts not that General Carrelet will maintain in his di vision that spirit of order, discipline, and devotedness which has coistituted the force of the Army of Paris, and that, following the example of his predecessor, he will secure on every point the complete execution of the military regulations.

On that day the QUEEN opened the Cortes in per son, and delivered the following speech from the throne : " My Lords and Gentlemen, " I always experience great pleasure in finding myself among you. I had, however, hoped that today my hap piness would have been greater than usual. I had hoped to have appeared here with a new title, with a new pledge of love and of confidence in the future. But Provi dence has denied to. us that gratification. Let us respect his decisions, and trust to the wisdom of his impenetrable designs. "I am happy to inform you that diplomatic relatiors with Great Britain have been happily renewed in a man ner honourable to the dignity of both nations. Our relations with the other Powers remain on the same footing of good understanding and of friend- " The expedition which I dispatched to the Pontifical States, in order to assist those of the other Catholic Powers in re-establishing the temporal authority of the Holy See, has safely returned, after having attained that end. It has left in Italy lasting remem brances of its brilliant conduct and of its discipline, and has drawn on itself the benedictions of the Church, and the most lively gratitude of the provinces which it occupied. "In the interior, public order, the first necessity of nations, has not for a single moment been disturbed, and in consequence the sources of wealth and prosperity which our country contains are beieg developed and augmented under the vigilant protection of the ad ministration. At the same time old discords are for gotten, party dissensio ns are di sappear i ng, and the country is able to avail itself of the services of all its children; and the policy most conformable to my de sires, the policy of forgiveness, of tolerance, and of true liberty, is established and consolidated. " The provinces beyond sea, which so frequently en gage my attention and that of my Government, have en joyed peace equally with the peninsula. In the island of Cuba, nevertheless, foreign pirates surprised some of the maritime towns, and occasioned deplorable scenes; but in a few hours these wretches were forced to fly before the presence of our people and the courage of our troops, renouncing their criminal attempt. " My Government occupies itself without relaxation with the improvement of those important provinces. ['he most available measures have been taken for their security, their defence, and the perfecting of all the branches of their administration. A line of steam boats has been established between Cuba and Porto Rico, in order to render the communications more fre quent and more direct, and to draw closer the Spanish countries of both hemispheres. In the Asiatic pro vinces the Government continues to occupy itself ac tively in securing the safe passage of the seas, an d i n promoting the civilisation of the aboriginal tribes. T has taken, and continues to take, a warm interest in army inproducing these great results by its exem plary conduct and its severe discipline, which ent i t l e i t more and more to my esteem, and likewise the incessant seal of my Government to maintain it in the elevated position which is occupies. " The Royal marine, likewise every way worthy, every way deserving, has attracted in an especial manner the attention of my Government. It was, i n fact, indisp en . able and urgent to ma i nta i n i t i n Tidiness for the de fence of oar coasts and our possessions, and to pr o t ect our commercial mar i ne i n it s p rog ressive march. It was with this vi ew th at or d ers h ave b een given for the con struction of several steam and sailing vessels i , and other dispositions have a l so b een ta k en t o a d va nce its mprove meet, as f ar a 3 the exigencies of the public service and the power of the Treasury would permit. " The lessons of experience and the demands of the tribunals have induced my Government to introduce some modifications in our peeal code, in virtue of the powers given by the law for that purpose. My Govern ment will state these reforms to you, and will propose to you besides a new code of procedure and a law on the organisation of the tribunals, which will have for object to complete the important ameliorations effected lately in the administration of ju,tice. " From the peace enjoyed by the country, consider able reforms have been introduced in important branches under the administration ( f the Ministers of the Interior and of Commerce, as well by the improvement of roads and other interior communications, the transport of cor respondence, telegraphs, and lighth ouses, in the pu bli c health, the publio charities and education, as to sur- WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 6, 1850. mount the obstacles which are opposed to the develop mont of agriculture, of manufactures, and of com merce. " In general education a reform has been made with the object of giving an impetus to certa'n brsech•s of science, destined to exercise a powerful itiflaence on the development of the public wealth, different schools have been established, yet the expenses for public education have bee❑ diminished. The public revenue is in a state of constant improvement, and it is to be hoped that the measures taken on this head will cause it still more to improve. My Government will submit immediately for your examination and approval the accounts of the public ex penses and the general budget for the ensuing year, care fully adapted to the real wants and the present position of the Administration. To these precis will be added, agreeably to the disposition of the new law of accounta bility, the project of law relative to the credits and ex traordinary credits granted in the last session. I shall also present to you the definitive regulation of the public debt. In the course of this session there will be pro posed to you other laws called for by the necessities of the State; among others ore on the regulation of the fueros of the Basque provinces. " Such is the state that the country and its adminis tration presents—a state relatively prosperous and fa vourable, bat which will be much more so hereafter, if, as I hope, peace at home, respect to the Throne and to our monarchical constitution, and confidence and har mony between the public authorities be maintained. To obtain so desirable an object I reckon with the greatest confidence on the wisdom and patriotism of which the Cortes has at all times given so many bright examples; and I rely, above all, on the assistance of Divine Provi dence, which has hitherto so signally favoured our great and noble nation."

A telegraphic dispatch from Berlin of the 3d an nounces that the King of PRUSSIA had convoked at noon a Council of Ministers, to deliberate upon the measures that ought to be taken in consequence of the entry of the Austro-Bavarian army into Electoral Hesse, and of the occupation of the town of Hanau. At the breaking up of the Council the KING appeared much depressed, and immediately afterwards a dis patch was addressed by the electric telegraph to the Prussian army assembled on the frontiers of Hesse. The rumour immediately spread that his MAJESTY had sent for Count D'ARNIM, which led to the belief of the abandonment of the policy of M. DE RADOWITZ, and of the latter's retirement. It was said that M. DE PERSIGNY and the English Ambassador had each made the previous evening a communication to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. A telegraphic dispatch, in the Cologne Gazette, dated from Berlin, on the evening of Nov. 4, says : —" The resignation of Herr VON RADOWITZ was yes terday accepted. Herr VON LADENBERG and Herr VON DER HEYDT have also sent in their resignations, but whether or not they have been accepted we can not say." Another telegraphic dispatch, in the Correspon denz Bureau, of the same date, says—" According to the Deutsche Reform, the resignation of Herr VON LADENBERG has not been accepted. The convocation of the Chambers has been fixed for November 21. The Secretaiy of Legation, ROSENBERG, has de parted for Vienna, with dispatches relating to the constitution of the free conferences." It is supposed that MONTEUFFEL, who has been throughout the opponent of the policy of RADOWITZ ) will be entrusted with the formation of the new Ministry. A letter from Cassel of the 2d says:-- " At eleven o'clock this morning two battalions and a half of the 18th Regiment of the Prussian line, the 12th Regiment of Hussars, and a battery arrived here. Other troops are expected. The reception of the Prussian troops on the part of the inhabitants was quiet and friendly. All eyes are looking for a proclamation on the part of the Prussian commander. General von Tiet zen addressed several citizens this morning at one of the city gates, assuring them that the Prussians came as friends, and hoping that they would be received as such. M. Lucken answered that every true friend might be certain of a friendly and hearty reception, upon which the general reached out his hand. This reply exactly expresses the general sentiment. The men were all quartered upon the citizens as a temporary measure, although the city is legally free from this burden. The horses have !nen taken to the barrack stables. Fur loughed soldiers continue to arrive from Hanau. The poor men are in a pitiable plight. A subscription has been opened in their behalf." RADETSEY has been summoned to Vienna. The following is the Austrian version of the Hes sian question ; the document was drawn up in the Vienna Chancery, and was submitted to the Frank fort Diet, and also to the Emperor of RUSSIA, at Warsaw. The intention to restore everywhere, by force, Absolutism and Obacurantism appears to be explicitly avowed in this document : " The movement was commenced in the Electorate of Hesse, by a coterie of the Chamber, and by the class of employes of the state, who, seized both one and the other before the year 1848, with a decided spirit of opposition, partook in the efforts and the abrrations of the As sembly of Frankfort, and afterwards threw themselves into the arms of the party of Gotha and of the Prussian union. To all this it may be added, that by an incon ceivable anomaly which greatly embarrasses all govern. mental action, the constitution, and the regulations of the service in Electoral Hesse, secure to the functionaries of the state the maintenance of their places, so that even the employes of the administrative branches can not be placed en disponibilite or en retraite, without their own consent. The Hessian troops have always been considered as good and trustworthy. The sub-officers and privates have, in fact, hitherto, even under the most trying circumstances, remained faithful to the tra ditions of their old discipline. It is quite different with the majority of the officers, among whom for a long time past Prussian ideas have introduced themselves. With the generals and officers of advanced age these feelings are partly explained by their joining the lodges of Free masons at which the Prince of Prussia is Grand Master, and partly by the predilection of the Elector for the military institutions and fur the uniform of Prussia. Alarmed by the rapid progress which was made by the democratic party in his states, and wishing to withdraw himself from the domination of the Ministry which had imposed on him the revolution of March, and which was formed out of the coterie of which we have spoken above, the Elector decided on acceding to the treaty of union of the 26th May, 1849. In spite of that, however, the Mi nistry maintained itself in power, and the Elector soon acquired the conviction that his adhesion to the union, which he had given under the influence of other circum stances, when Saxony and Hanover still b.longed to the alliance called that of the month of May, would infallibly efface the Electorate of Hesse from the number of inde pendent states. Nevertheless order and authority were re established in Austria. The major part of the states of Germany were able to replace themselves on the ground of the treaties of 1815, and the Elector followed the example. Beyond the coteries of which we have already spoken, the Prussian union was not favourably received in Hesse. In order to put himself in a condition to be .Ible to follow up the new line of policy which he had and appoi n t e d M. Il assen - MFinriosmtry,that mom en t th e h atre d o f chosen, the Elector in Feb ruary l ast d i smissed the Eber panaillalrrtit(glyt-hlaeVnsfi P l )Ge revolutionaryor I 3 h a er I I, Minister. was diarerctyted a a n g d a n p s a t rt i t c h u a l t ar i n o f i s t t e h r e . p The Hassenpflug Ministry carried its respect fur con stitutional forms so far that it suspended, from the commencement of June, the recovery of the direct taxes, and simply placed in deposit the produce of the indirect taxes in virtue of an arrangement concluded with the Permanent Committee of the Chamber. The Ministry demanded the vote of the taxes, but merely for the period which would expire at the end of September. It was then that the new budget was presented. We dwell more particularly on this circumstance, because it has been falsely stated that M. Hassenpflug wished to set aside the budget entire l y , whilst in reality hi s o nly ob ject was to provide for the wants of the se r v i ce f or a f ew weeks, which in no way implied a v i o l at i on o f t h e con stitution, After som e very stormy nlyrequired th e presentat i on of the question was to fi x the taxes for the swholebudget i o financial ah a ne s en ah thea discus sions the Chambers refused the budget. This refusal was equally inadmissible, according to the terms of the constitution of the Electorate of Hesse, and according to the Germanic federal law. The result was a fresh dissolution of the Chamber. The Government at the same time announced the speedy convocation of a new assembly of the States. The spirit of the people was in general good; it was thought that the taxes might be r eadil y colle cted , as was the case in the Grand I)uchy of Hesse, where the revolutionary spirit had even gained more ground. But the main point was to find organs to collect the taxes, and it was the administrative authorities who re fused obedience, founding their opposition on certain paragraphs of the constitution , w hich could not be adapted to the extrao r dinary circumstance s of the country. When, in order to compel them to do their duty, the country was declared in a state of siege, hesitations of the same kind manifested themselves among the officers. It was evidently hoped to constrain the Government to retreat, and thus to bring about a movement towards the Prussian union. Almost all the organs of the adminis tration of the State having refused their co-operation, the power of the Government became paralysed. The Electorev in his attem pts to re-establi s h l ega l authority by his own means, he appealed to the Ger manichis Confederation, of which he is a member. This, in a few words, is the explanation of the complication in Besse; and it is beyond all doubt that the declarations made by th e P russ i an Government encouraged the employes and the officers in their resistance." DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Cologne Gazette quotes the following te egraphic dispatch from the Correspondenz Bureau : " KIEL, Nov. 3. "An Austrian officer has arrived here with federal dispatches, which order the immediate cessation of hos tilities, and, in case of non-compliance, threaten that the execution of the orders shall be insured through the means of federal troops." GREECE. Letters f rom Ath ens o f th e 22d ult. state that the dispute with th e E ng li s h A m b assa dor on the alleged Illegal detention by the Government of certain steamers laden with currants and bound to England, has been satisfactorily arranged. The elections had terminated : the new Ministry had obtained a large majority. ITALY The Avenir de Nice of the Ist inst. quotes a letter from Turin, announcing that the POPE has excommu nicned Piedmont. A letter from Genoa of the 25th ult., states that, on the previous morning, as an Austrian steamer was conveying the EMPRESS-MOTHER, grandmother of the present Emperor of AUSTRIA, the Archduchess SOPHIA, and other distinguished persons from Pola to Trieste, it ran down and sank the commercial steamer Amelia. No one perished. There was a thick fog at the time. The owners of the Amelia were recompensed for the loss sustained. Our readers will recollect that at the time of his abdication, King CHARLES ALBERT assumed the name of Count of BARGE. The Municipality of Barge, de sirous of perpetuating the memory of this fact, bas decreed the erection of a marble monument to the late ICING in the principal church of the town. The well known sculptor ANGELO BRUNERI, is entrusted with the execution of this monument. The Milan Gazette of the 31st ult. contains a notice, informing the public that a quantity of Treasury bills, representing a sum of 2,500,000 Austrian livres (about 3,000,000 francs) is to be publicly burnt in the first days of November. The Armonia of Turin states that Monsignor PEA NZONI has written to the POPE to express his sa tisfaction at the cordial reception he has experienced in France from the clergy, the civil and military au thorities, and the whole population. The Parma Gazette of the 30th ult. contains a de cree ordering a new levy of 1,000 men, 200 of whom are b belong to the reserve. The others are to be under arms by the 28th of February next. MISS KELLY'S THEATRE, NEW ENGLISH OPERA - HOUSE. Miss Kelly's Theatre, in Dean-street, Soho, was opened last night by an operatic corps, as an English opera house. This theatre is the very smallest in London, and is, therefore, the one of all others least adapted to musical purposes. The members of the corps are—save and except Mrs. Alexander Newton and Mr. Bridges Frodsham, whose pleasing singing in the concert-room is always heard with delight, but who, neither of them, had ever before last night at tempted a public dramatic performance—unknown to fame; indeed, it was everybody's first ap pearance on any stage, and, as might be ex pected, nobody had the remotest idea of acting, and the whole affair went off like an amateur performance. Among the new singers we would notice Miss Low and Mr. Durand, as exhi biting much promise; they may, by study and ap plication, attain hereafter a respectable rank in the musical profession. The opera was a grand opera, entitled The Last Crusade, the composition of Alex ander Mitchell, the blind composer, and which had been produced with success at the Royal Theatre Brunswick. It would not be fair to Mr. Mitchell to form a judgment as to the merits of his composition from the manner in which it was performed last night, but it is evident that he possesses a thorough knowledge of musical science. Some of the melodies Were very pleasing, and albeit much of the music is made up of reminiscences, yet we consider that Mr. Mitchell has some of the " right stuff" about him, and may here after become a great dramatic composer. We sin cerely hope that in his next attempt he will secure the co-operation of a better librettist. Mr. Mitchell was called on at the conclusion of the opera. There was a strong muster of the personal friends of the per formers, and in many instances the zeal of the more injudicious of these friends outran their discretion, for they insisted on encoring everybody in every thing. THE JEWEL AND PLATE ROBBERY IN THE STRAND.—(THIS DAY.) The parties implicated in this serious robbery were brought up at Bow-street this afternoon for re-exami nation, and, as at the former hearing, the court was very much crowded. The names of the persons charged are Daniel John Shaw, James Badcock, John Gardner, Mary Ann Cheruneau, George Buncher, Mary Ann Buncher, Charles Clinton (a lad), and Charles Kelly. Mr. Gilham attended on behalf of Kelly, who had been out on bail; Mr. Vontner for the woman Cheruneau, Gardner, and the Bunchers; and Mr. Humfreys for the prosecutors. The first witness called to-day was a policeman named John Bright, stationed in Southwark. He stated that on the evening of the 21st of October, the night of the robbery, about seven o'clock, he was in the Borough road, when he observed the prisoners Shaw and Gardner together. Be watched them into the house occupied by the prisoner Buncher, and after remaining there for a few minutes they came out again accompanied by Buncher and another, and walked away in the direction of Blackfriars-road. Gardner had been once before the magistrate at the Southwark Police-court, on suspicion of having bean concerned in a robbery. Gardner—You are mistaken; I never was. Shaw said be did not wish to ask the witness any questions, but he had plenty of witnesses to prove that he was nowhere near the Borough on] the night in question. Police-constable Jones, 250 M, stated that he knew the prisoner Gardner well, as also the woman Cheruneau, who passed as Gardner's wife in the neighbourhood of the Blackfriars road. They were suspected characters, and the police had long had their eyes upon them. Mary Willet, a young woman residing in Temple street, St. George's•road, in the Borough, also stated that she knew the wo.nan by the name of Gardner. Mr. Humfreys said this was all the evidence he pro• posed to offer to-day, as the property had not yet been traced, and be must, therefore, ask for another remand. Mr. Wontner again insisted that there was nothing in the evidence to implicate the woman Buncher, and he applied to have her liberated on bail. Mr. HENRY reminded the Learned Gentleman that she was found attempting to destroy a list of jewellery, watches, and other valuables which were not likely to belong to a woman in her station of life, and until she could explain away that matter he must have her detained. Mr. Wontner contended that the list might very pos sibly apply to other property than that stolen in the case; and as proof of that the list contained articles which Mr. Clapham, the prosecutor, had missed or lost. referred would Mr. HENRY said that might be so, but it was not im possible that another robbery may have been comm'tt e d on t wlihstetahlseor the referred list r e t f o e . to the Strand robbery or not, and he should remand a ll same m f e o r night, ajuy which i c decide c t i h d i e s the prisoners till this day week, enlarging Kelly's bail till that period. The prisoners, with the exception of Kelly, were then remanded in custody. CABINET COUNCIL.—(THIS DAY.)—A Cabinet Council, for which summonses had been issued on Saturday, was held this afternoon, at two o'clock, at the Foreign-office, Downing•street. The Ministers present were Lord John Russell, the Marquis of Lansdowne (who arrived in town this morning from Bowood), Eirl Grey, Viscount Palmerston, Sir G. Grey, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Carlisle, Sir Francis T. Baring, Sir John C. Hobhouse, and the Marquis of Clanricarde. The Ministers have accepted the invi tation of the Lord Mayor elect ( Musgrove) to dine at Guildhall on Saturday next (Lord Mayor's day). The Lord Mayor entertained last evening at the Mansion-house the gentlemen of the committee of General Purposes, including sev era l Ald ermen . C overs were l a id f or fifty. PREPARATIONS IN NEW YORR.—An American correspondent writes :—" As the time for the great Exhibi tion of 1851 in London draws nigh, preparations are on foot to give it American support. Steamers will be shortly ad vertised to carry passengers from the United States and back at half the usual charges, and a large number of persons will take advantage of the occasion to visit your country for a few weeks. I should not be surprised if you had an inva sion of Yankees, armed and accoutred at all points with in ventions and models." ATTEMPTED SUlClDE.—Yesterday morning, be ween six and seven o'clock, considerable alarm was occa sioned at Waterloo-bridge, in consequence of a young man, having the appearance of a labourer, attempting self-destruc tion by precipitating himself from the parapet of the bridge on the Strand side. It appears that at the above-mentioned time one of the labourers in the employ of the Waterloo bridge Cempany, on going down the steps leading to the pier, found the body of a man lying upon the bottom step, completely insensible, and in a most mutilated condition. He instantly raised au alarm, and the unfortunate man was removed without delay to the Charing. cross Hospital. He was examined by Dr. Golding, the house physician, and Mr. Hancock, the surgeon, and it was discovered that both his legs were fractured in several places, his skull was also frac tured, and he had received other injuries of a most serious description. The usual remedies were adopted in such cases, and the unfortunate man afterwards rallied sufficiently to de scribe where he experienced the most pain. On being ques tioned how he met with the injuries he refused to inform them, and remained perfectly silent. He said his name was Hennessey, but refused to give his address or tell where his friends resided. He was dressed as a plasterer, and appeared to be about 20 years of age. On being searched, a trowel was found in his pocket, the point of which had entered the hip joint. A duplicate was also found, which only referred to a trowel which had been pledged. The surgeon gave very little hopes of his recovery, and from the extent of the in juries he had received Hennessey is not expected to survive the day. The unfortunate man must have thrown himself from the parapet joining the steps leading to the pier, and instead of falling into the water, as he anticipated, he fell upon the steps. His hat was found upon the steps near him. CAMBRIDGE HOUSE.—The effects of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge have been removed from this residence to Kew Cottage, where the Duchess and the Princess Mary are now staying, and where it is understood the Duchess intends permanently to reside. Cambridge House, it is understood, will be either given up to the Mar quis Chelmondeley or the ground landlord, Sir Richard Sutton. Captain Warner, the inventor of the "Long Range," was yesterday brought up before Mr. Commissioner Evans, at the Bankruptcy Court, Basinghall-street, and applied for his discharge from Whitecross-street Prison, but was re manded back to custody until he shall give security in the sum of 500/. that he will not leave the country until the pro ceedings in the Court shall be completed. TILE EaninunoN or 1851. The Royal Yacht Club have voted the sum of 501, to the funds of the Exhi bition, and have decided on exhibiting some of thei r mo dels, • 'which exhibit the latest improTements.
