CAUTION TO TuAnes 77----------------- uj.—lnformation has been re ceived at the General ,P os t ffice of a series of robberies w hich have lately been practised upon respectable trades men, and which have been effected in the following manner. The person engaged in the swindling transaction takes care to reside within tha fifteen mile circuitine of the L on d on d i str i ct ez order to the amount t h poe t, When located lieobtainsani n of one shilling , w hich is ma de payable the me tropolis. He then orders goods,o chiefly the off ices i n i • rThs business erne hou se in Locidly, articles, to the a mount of 51. and upwardses from in woollen erecifying at the same time that a o is conducceed en toe principle of kerne:Hate P ayment in ca s h. In this manner is h e multiplies orders, alteri ng th e • ls. to ti., and from the neat way in ethi c ], th a e mount of a •nf the " Is." is effecte d, it is hardly p ossible to detect the the fraud. It is almost nee dless to state that after th e delivery of the goods, the tradesma n, u p on a pp lication to the Post Office, finds that he has been swindled, no such am ount as die 51. or the IW. having been paid to his account there. It'ie to be hoped that this caution will set tradesmen on • tileir guard, and lead to the detection of this artful swindler, ei,ho no doubt is now making a circuit of the suburbs of London for the purpose of victimising the metropolitan tradesmen. CONSECRATION OP CHRIST CkIUECII, KENSINGTON. Yesterday forencan the newly erected church of Christ C'eLeeeech , Victoria-road, Kensington, was consecrated by the 61 .4011 of London. The 'dila') has cost about SA-OL THE SUN, LONDON,' • the part of the railway were sent in together, the one framed on the assumption that Plymouth was to be abandoned as a depot, as suggested by the Commis sioners themselves ; the other, that it was to be re tained, but that Southampton was to be the port of embarkation for the emigrants collected in London, and housed at Nine Elms. The Commissioners, how ever, subsequently determined on retaining Plymouth as a port of call. As regards, then, the second tender, that of the railway company proved to be the lower by 30 per cent., the Commissioners, nevertheless, de clined it in favour of the higher, and manifestly the less eligible of the two : this, moreover, in the very teeth of the report of Lieutenant LEAN, R. 1., the chief officer of emigration at the port of London, who, on the eligibility of the offered depot at Nine Elms being referred to him by them, pronounced in favour of its superiority to all other suggested de pats, as well as of the contingent advantages afforded to the public service and the comfort of the emi grants in the facility provided thereby (by means of the South-Western Railway) for embarking all emi grants at Southampton instead of in the Thames. The tenor of this report was what might naturally be expected from a naval officer of judgment, to whom the casualties to life and shipping, and the indefinite and serious delay which so commonly occurs to ships in the Downs and in making the North Foreland, likely to at tend on . the Thames embarkation, were apparent. No wonder then that the South-Western directors labour under a difficulty of understanding why much the lowest tender, made by parties of perfect responsibi lity, and much the best depot, were rejected in favour of a greatly inferior der6t at Deptford, consisting of an old dwelling-house, so old, it is said, as to have been once inhabited by Peter the Great, and not placed either on a railway or on the river. The Commis sioners indeed maintain, in their report to Earl GREY, dated the 18th March last, that embarkation at Southampton would cost more than that on the Thames by 2s. sd. per head, or a total in the year on 6,000 emigrants of 725/. ; and further, that ships engaged to take emigrants from the for mer port, and calling at Plymouth, would make a higher charge for passage money than if engaged to take them up in London, and also call at Plymouth. On the latter point their assertion is directly at variance with the recorded opinion of Lieut. LEAN, their own officer, besides its being ob vious that a greater charge would not be made where the amount of provisions, which must necessarily be consumed during the passage from London to South ampton, would be saved, than if they were consumed on the longer route. As to the previous calculation, are we to allow nothing for the saving to the ship in provisions and water during the number of days, often amounting to ten or twelve, occupied in getting out of the Thames and reaching Southampton ? Taking the low average of five days, the correct result of the calculation of the Commissioners is (in lieu of what they contend for), a saving of 4751. upon the whole 6,000 emigrants, or of ls. 7d. per head, by adopting Southampton for embarkation in preference to the Thames. Thus, on the comparative economy of the two schemes there can be no reasonable doubt, and as little as regards the comfort of those embarking from a railway carriage at the wharf side at Southampton, instead of in the stream of the Thames, or the needless wearisome ness of achieving the circumnavigation of the coasts of Kent, Sussex, and Rants. But the still more important element of safety remains to be considered. The returns at LLOYD'S show that during seven years, between 1837 and 1843, the following fearful loss of life and property took place on the sea voyage between the Thames and the Isle of Wight :-56 vessels were totally lost, with all or several of their living cargo ; 260 were wrecked or foundered, the lives being saved, but property lost; and 1,057 re ceived severe damage, by running on the shoals or otherwise. Since then, the loss of the Royal Ade laide, with all on board— 250 souls—will occur to our readers, as well as that of the Amphitrite, who was driven from her anchorage in the Downs, and all hands lost, including upwards of 100 female convicts; of two Indiamen, the Conqueror and the Reliance, with almost a total loss of life ; of the Burhampoota, freighted with emigrants, who lost all except their lives ; and of the Sarah Bridges, in tow of a steamer, who broke adrift, and neither vessel or crew were ever seen afterwards. Of such a lamentable nature are the casualties risked by wantonly encountering this un necessary navigation, whereas the perils of the Good win Sands and the east end of the Channel would be altogether avoided by constituting Southampton the starting point for those who transfer their household gods to the distant shores of Australasia. It results, then, that the Commissioners have acted in this instance in contravention of the fitting considerations of safety, convenience, and economy ; that they have erred both on the score of humanity and of finance. The directors of the Lon don and South-Western Railway Company have, in our opinion, a substantial claim on the support of all who are interested in Australian emigration, and in a fair and judicious treatment cif public tenders, in applying to the Legislature to insist on the ques tion of depOts and the best ports of embarkation for emigrants collected in London being re-opened for public tender, at the earliest date consistent with the present engagements of the Commissioners, and that in the meantime the Commissioners take no steps to prejudice the full and fair reconsideration of the question next year. The subject is one in every re spect eminently deserving the consideration of all who feel interested in the well-being of those among our fellow-countrymen who are impelled to transfer their all to that distant hemisphere, which offers to British enterprise a genial climate and a virgin soil. Mr. C. Villiers paired with Mr. Hudson in favour of Mr. Bathe amendment on Tuesday night. THE HIPPODROME AT KENSINGTON.—TESTIMONIAL OF RESPECT.—On Wednesday evening the members of the corps dramatique and equestrians attached to Astley's Am phitheatre, and the Hippodrome at Kensington, with a num ber of private gentlemen, assembled at Mr. Macintosh's Tavern, Westminster-bride, for the purpose of presenting Mr. Richard Ballard, of 1\ orwich, a gentleman of fortune, and who is associated with Mr. Batty in his new, extensive, and successful speculation the Hippodrome at Kensington, with a massive gold snuff-box, of exquisite handicraft, manufactured by Mr. Church, the jeweller of the Westminster road, as a slight token of their regard and esteem. Mr. T. Barry was unanimously called on to preside, who, on taking the chair, briefly opened the business of the evening by making a few preliminary remarks explanatory of the nature of the meeting. The testimonial, which bore the following in scription, was then presented in due form—" Presented to Richard Bullard, Esq., by the proprietor and gentlemen of Astley's Royal Amphitheatre, as a mark of their regard, and of the estimation in which they hold him for his urbanity of manner and gentlemanly conduct towards them." A first-rate supper was then served (Mr. Barry acting as pre sident, and Mr. Stephen Smith croupier), to which ample justice was done; likewise the wines, which were of the best vintages. The healths of Mr. Batty, Mr. Bullard, the chair man, vice-president, &c., having been drunk with the greatest enthusiasm, several speeches followed from the im mortal Widdicombe, and his merry colleagues of the circle, Mr. Batty, Mr. Vickress, Mr. Macintosh, and other gentle men, and it was at a late, or rather an early hour on the following morning, that the company separated, harmony and conviviality reigning throughout the proceedings. ROBBERY AT THE GREAT EXIIIBITION.—Yester day information was circulated throughout the Metropolitan and City Police Stations that a case in the Exhibition had been plundered of a silver medal of the Royal Dublin So. ciety, 1844 ; a gold medal of the Dublin Society, 1851, with the name of Bradford on both ; and some razors, marked " Bradford, Clonmel, cutler to H. R. H. Prince Albert." A second case was plundered of a silver medal of the same society. THH GREAT EXHIBITION.—The compensation dis pute long subsisting between the Society of Arts and the Messrs. James and George blunday, who had entered into an agreement to erect an edifice suitable for the " Great Exhi bition of 1851," but which agreement was afterwards can celled upon promise of adequate remuneration for outlay, risk, liability, anxiety, trouble, and loss, has at length been settled by Mr. Stephenson, appointed sole umpire in the matter, who has awarded the said Messrs. Munday the sum of 5,1201. SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday (Wednesday) morn ing, between three and four o'clock, Peter Miller, who re sided at 3b, Russell-street, Liverpool, was found dead in the area of 101, London-road, in that town, by a sergeant of police. lie had been seen in apparently good health but a short time previously. The body presented no external marks of violence. An inquest and post mortem examination will take place to. day. SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday afternoon a man of respectable appearance was found sitting in a doorway in Bishopsgate-street Without, quite dead. He had been ob served but a few minutes previously resting himself. The body was taken to the East London Union; it is that of a man about forty-five, dressed in dark coat and trousers, and light vest. Had a quantity of wearing appar2l with him, and some silver spoons in his pocket. BITERS BIT.—Mr. W. France, of Coll ingwood street, Liverpool, has left at our office a large oyster, by means of which two mice were caught in a most remarkable man ner. It appears that the oyster was, a few evenings since, left upon a table, and during the night must, as his species are wont to do, have opened his jaws. Two mice, probably attracted by the prospect of a dainty meal, unsuspectingly entered the oyster's habitation, when their adversary chose to close his shell, and the unlucky intruders paid for their impertinence by the forfeit of their heads, being completely armslied to pieta.—Liverpool Mirctory. a[Okt.

YOUNG took the oaths and his seat. The Administration of Criminal Justice Improvement Bill and the Valuation (Ireland) Bill were respectively passed through Committee. Our comical friends, the self-elected Apostles of Ar bitration, are at it again. They really appear to be incorrigible—incorrigible we mean not only in their pertinacity, but in a s t up idit y th at sur p as sess all com prehension. Exeter-hall—the Hall of Humbugs— has been selected for their present demonstration. From its platform the orators of the Congress are crying "Peace, peace, when there is no peace.' Added to this they are declaiming with all the force of their lungs and their rhetoric against the horrors of war. As if any one had been eulogizing it ! Why upon this subject the whole world is more or less agreed already. It needs no persuasion of the delegates to convince the mind of any individual that war is reprehensible, or that peace is a thing to be desiderated. Each of these great truths has time out of mind been recognised and appreciated universally. Consequently the world could very well dispense with all this exceedingly virtuous rhodomontade. But, no—the Peace Association is to effect more than has been accomplished even by Christianity, its principal members are to be recognised by mankind as the precursors of the millennium. TIIIIAL CAIN is to be eclipsed by each of them as an ingenious fabricator, for it is by their hands (if we would but credit them) that swords are to be beaten into ploughshares, and spears twisted into reaping hooks. VAN Amntracil bad better look to his laurels betimes, for the lion is at length to lie down with the lamb at the bidding of these sticklers for arbitration. Against their pre posterous pretensions we cannot enter our protest too emphatically. There is to us in the whole scheme a self-sufficiency so enormous, an assumption of moral superiority so contemptible, and, as it appears to us, an absolute impiety so gross and reprehensible, that we must enter our objections to their proceedings whensoever and wheresoever the society in question may please to indulge themselves with a new demonstration. What we insist upon is simply this, that society did not wait to be informed of the curse of war, or of the blessing of peace, by these intensely Pecksniffian philanthropists. Why, peace is the boon which every noble-minded and pa triotic administrator has striven to secure to his age and to his country from periods of the remotest antiquity down to the middle of this nineteenth century. War, no less, has been the evil which every truly great statesman has endeavoured to avoid by all the con trivances of statecraft, and by all the adroitness of diplomacy. Besides which, the more prominent in dividuals selected to go about from one capital of Europe to another preaching the advantages of in ternational tranquillity, are about the last persons who should ever have presumed to proffer advice upon the matter to their contemporaries. Observe the features of the most conspicuous dele gates now clustered together upon the Exeter Hall platform. There is Sir D. BREWSTER, as President—a very gifted man, no doubt, an excellent chemist, an admirable mechanic, in short, an intelligent in quirer into almost all of the physical sciences —but, at the same time, an intense lover of, and a notorious participator in, those stormy controversies which not unfrequently cast discredit upon the students of philosophy. There is Mr. HonsmAN, however— surely, some will insist, he may pass muster in the assemblage of the Peace Association. Well, Mr. HOESMAN is a capital scrutineer of the bench of bishops, that's true, but as for his advocating pacific principles in the guidance of public life, we really cannot see for the life of us that he has earned a right to enter upon any such course of pro ceeding by virtue of any sweetness of temperament he has ever indicated. Then there's Mr. COBDEN, renowned as the champion of Free Trade, and as the most redoubtable of all the antagonists of Protection —but almost equally notorious as beingcontinaally involved in political squabbles of some kind or another —squabbles carried on each of them through the means of a ♦ery peppery correspondence, spiced to a remark able degree with the most stinging personalities. Turning from our countrymen, we perceive the countenance of no less remarkable a per- sonage than M. DB CORMENIN, better known by his pamphleteering sobriquet of TIMON. Admir- ing as we do the singular and brilliant eloquence of M. DE CORMENIN, we, nevertheless, cannot look upon him as very well qualified to advocate the doctrines upheld by the Peace Association, seeing that, during the last quarter of a century, it appears to have been his office to asperse everybody and anybody, who happened to come within the range of his vituperations. Then latest, and most glaring anomaly of all, there is recognisable on the Exeter Hall platform the countenance of M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN, the oddest certainly among all these eccentric advocates of peace—EMlLE DE GIRARDIN, the most bellicose journalist of France-- EMILE DE GIRARDIN, who is perpetually stimulating the evil passions of his countrymen through the co lumns of his newspaper La Presse—EMlLE DE GIRARDIN, the noisiest among the Boanerges of re- hellion, the promoter of every factious agitation in Paris, the deserter from every cause that gives pro mise to secure his country's tranquillity, the sup porter of every public man whose triumph seems to necessitate either external war or internal revolution ! Such are the motley de- legates grouped together upon the platform of th© association, and arrogating to themselves the right to disseminate the doctrines of peace and amity among the nations of Christendom. Fantastic projects of one species or another have been indulged in by nearly every successive genera tion. People have chased now a jack o' lantern like the South Sea Bubble—now a mirage like the Mississippi scheme—now a fata morgana like El Dorado or Cibolo ; they have gone mad for a while in their dreams of the golden rivers of Ci- pango, and the purple islands of Cathay, and the fabulous empire of that PRESTER JoriN who was surrounded, in legendary belief, with a magnificence like the pomp of Hlaourf-AL-Rasciun. Yet, extravagant as these delusions have been, they have been altogether surpassed in exaggeration and ab surdity by this foolish child-vision of governing the world all at once by arbitration, and of talking the people into peace, so that they should suddenly send their armies to the right about, and blow off the re sidue of their gunpowder in honour of the fes tivities inaugurative of the millennium. Frivolous though these meetings of the Peace Congress may appear, nevertheless, it would be a mistake to regard them as altogether harmless, seeing that they are cal culated to bring what they are intended to serve into discredit. Therefore it is that we avail ourselves of every reasonable opportunity to protest against the proceeding s of these self-satisfied apostles of tran quillity, dreading as we do the ridicule which may attach in consequence of those proceedings to a cause so eminently entitled to veneration. The London and South -Western Railway Company appear to have a reasonable ground of complaint against the Emigration Commissioners, for a course of proceeding, on the part of the latter body, which may be gathered from the following brief statement of circumstances :—ln the early part of the present year the Commissioners, desirous to effect a saving upon the prices hitherto paid for the emigration de. pUt service, advertised for tenders for the board and lodging of emigrants in suitable depots at London and Plymouth, or at London and Southampton. The South-Western Railway sent in their tenders, pro- Posing to place at the disposal of the Commissioners, rent free, a large and commodious building at Nine Elms for the London dep6t, and another on the Dock quay at Southampton, for the depot at that port, which on being opened were found to be considerably lower than those put in, both by a party at Deptford and by cloth:: at Plym ou th. m esa two ten d on 04 THURSDAY EVENING, THE FRENCH REP lUBLIC, We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Pattie says—" All the Ministers gave in their resignations last night, but the PRESIEENT of the Re public refused to accept them." To which the Moniteur du Soir adds :—" We are assured that the Prince adjured his Ministers to unite their efforts to his own, in order to continue to ensure to the country the order, calm, and security of which France has more than ever need to sustain the trials which await her." Is the use of the word "Prince" in the above ex tract, from the Moniteur, intentional ? Consti tutionally it is the PRESIDENT, not the Prince, who has Ministers to adjure. There was a meeting of the Ministers held again on Tuesday morning, at which M. LEON FAUCHER strongly urged upon his colleagues the necessity of resigning office, and they again tendered their resig nations ; but, at the reiterated request of the PRESI DENT, they agreed to remain. The vote of censure was aimed quite as much at the PRESIDENT himself as at his Ministers, and many of those reactionaries who voted for it declared to M. LEON FAUCHER that their votes were not directed against the Minister of the Interior personally, but that their object was to show that they would not allow an unconstitutional candidate to be elected as President. The [National has the following on the relative po sitions of the PRESIDENT, the Ministers, and the As sembly : " The Ministry remains. We had foreseen and wished it, and we thank M. L. Bonaparte. It is well that the Assembly should know how its vote has been received at the Elysee. The Ministry, accused and convicted of having, in opposition to its duty, exercised its influence to excite petitioning, it is not M. Leon Fau -1 cher alone, it is not even his colleagues. The Govern ment considers itself responsible for the abuse of influ ence with which the Minister of the Interior is re proached, and accepts the censure that has been be stowed on him. Nothing is more just. After the Message of the 31st October, after the speech at Dijon, nobody has a right to suppose that the Ministers had an action independent of that of the President of the Executive Power. The responsibility of their faults, as well as the merit of their good services, reaches the person who appoints and dismisses them at will. The old constitutional theory is no longer applied. The President is praise worthy or otherwise according to what he does and what is done by his Ministers. It is not for us to deny this. Thus the Assembly must resign itself to support a Ministry which it has twice condemned. After the vote of the 18th of January it saw Ministers declared unworthy of its confidence, return to their seats as if to defy it. At present the insult of the comedy of re signations which in definitive would end by the return of M. H. Faucher, M. Baroche, and M. Rouher, is spared it. The Assembly will show itself grateful for this good proceeding. It is now warned that its most formal and most decided votes will not succeed in shaking the Cabinet. As long as they shall possess the confidence of M. Bonaparte, the Ministers will retain their portfolios. It will be vain for the majority to take the most severe measures against them, to ex press the clearest blatne—there will be no ministerial crisis. The Assembly may complain as much as it pleases, but the Elys63 laughs at its wrath. It has been too well shown to the Executive Government that in spite of the Constitution its power is equal—what do we say ?—superior to that of the legislative power—so that it has no need henceforth to take into account the move ments of independence of the majority. It is tied down besides by its voluntary complicity in all the reactionary laws proposed by M. Louis Bonaparte during the last two years. Let it be punished where it has sinned. If it had been more severe formerly, it would be more respected now; and we should not witness the incredible spectacle of a Ministry condemned for having failed in its duties, and coming the day after to brave its judges from the very place on which it sat on the eve as an accused party. The result will in form us which of the two powers is to gain by the extraordinary situation which the maintenance of the Cabinet will produce. It would depend on the majority, if its courage endured longer than a day, and was not fatally succeeded by the most deplorable w ea k ness , t o draw from it a great profit for its consideration and its authority in the country. It would be m e r e ly su ffi c i en t for it to be consistent with its vote of Monday by perse- vering in its distrust. Will it dare to do so? We doubt it, and, to say the truth, we care but little. All that passes in the upper regions of the Government leaves us quite indifferent. To choose between M. 0. Barrot, the probable successor of M. Faucher, and that great Minister himself, we prefer the seeond. We owe to him to have ruined in the mind of every honest man the pre tended revisionist movement. He must complete his task, and aid us in finishing as promptly as possible with the chance of aa unconstitutional re-election. He will not fail in doing so—of that we may be certain. Lot him rest therefore." The whole of the Orleanists and upwards of 70 Legitimatists voted in favour of the - vote of censure proposed by BAZE. We some time since announced that the French Government bad invited the maritime states to send delegates to a sanitary congress, to be held in Paris, for the purpose of considering the subject of quaran tine. Those who have adhered to this proposition are France, England, Austria, Russia, Spain, Portugal, Sardinia, Tuscany, Rome, the Two Sicilies Turkey, and Greece, and the majority of the delegates have ar rived in Paris. Each nation will have two delegates, a consul, and a physician. France has named M. DAVID, ex-consul-general at Genoa, and now French minister there, and Dr. DIELIER, member of the Aca demy of Medicine ; England is represented by M. PERRIER, consul-general at Brest, and Dr. SUTHER LAND, one of the members of the Board of Health of London ; Austria by M. LAVISON, consul general at Marseilles, and Dr. MENIS, Aulic councillor • Spain by M. SEGOVIA ; Portugal by M. MOUSINHO DS SILVEIRA, first secretary of legation at Paris ; Sardinia, by 111. MAGNETTI, COIF. sul-general at Lyons, and Professor 80, director of the lazarettos at Genoa; Tuscany by M. CEccoNI, and Dr. BETTI; Russia by M. EBELING consul general at Paris, and Dr. ROSEMBERG; dreece by M. VITALII, consul at Malta, and Dr. COSTE, phy sician to King aruo, and director of the sanitary affairs at Athens. The representative of the Holy See, the Two Sicilies, and Turkey are not yet ap pointed. Three secretaries are attached to the con ference, two for the diplomatic and consular element, M. ERNEST BAROUCH, jun., and JULES DAVID, and one for the medical part, Dr. DESORMEAUX. There was very little business transacted at the Bourse.

It goes further, for it invites the diet to declare itself competent to summon the particular states whose internal situation should threaten the safety of the Confederation, to put their constitution, their laws, and their policy in harmony with the funda mental laws of the Confederation. This proposition being based on the articles of the fundamental laws of the Confederation , _ and the stipulations of the second committee of Dresden, the great powers are of opinion that the Diet might occupy itself immedi ately with the affair, without requiring any prelimi nary instructions. Bavaria and Hanover, however, hesitate on this point. We moreover learn, that Austria and Prussia have proposed to the Germanic Diet to suppress all the journals whose tendencies are in opposition to the monarchical principle, reserv ing however to itself to make a general law on the liberty of the press." SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 18th have arrived. The Gaceta publishes an order that prayers shall be put up in all the churches of the kingd o m for the happy delivery of the Q UEEN . D e p u t a ti ons f ro m various towns of Biscay had arrived in Madrid for the purpose of submitting to the Government propo sitions for the construction of a railroad from Madrid to Irun.

The first was an attempt to excite a Cabralist demonstration among the 16th Infantry, on the 10th. The object was to assassinate Colonel MAGELHARS, recently appointed to the command by SALDANITA, to restore Colonel F. TABORUDA, the Cabralist Colonel, and to expel the Septembristas. The plot was dis covered, and several non-commissioned officers were arrested. The next was an attempt made by the Ca bralists to murder the Governor of Beija, in Alemtejo, on the 10th. In order to encourage the movement, the report was circulated that dosE CABRAL bad been appointed Minister, whereupon the Cabralist parti sans broke into the Government-house and attempted to murder the Governor, who, being a very powerful man, resisted his assailants, beat them off, and made his escape. A detachment from Evora has restored tranquillity in Beija. On the 14th an attempt was made by certain Cabralist officers to induce the sth Cacadores to mutiny against the Septembrista officers lately appointed, by telling them that the Septem bristas were sold to the Cabralites, who wished to disarm the battalion. At first the men credited the statement, but when told that the 16th Infantry were coming to fraternize with them their eyes were opened : they shut the gates of the castle, and re- I fused to open them to any one but the Duke of SAL DANUA himself, who soon after arrived, and placed the rebellious officers under arrest. The Miguelite meeting on the 10th was tolerably well attended. They decided on taking no part what ever in the forthcoming elections. In the provinces, however, they seem to be of a different opinion, for they are to be met with in many of the electoral committees. GERMANY. The German Journal of Frankfort, of the 21st, says :—" Several journals have spoken of a proposi tion made by Austria and Prussia, at the sitting of the Germanic diet of the Bth, having for its object to establish a central committee of federal police. If we are well informed, these journals are more or less in the wrong. The proposition has not precisely for its object the establishment of any authority of the BELGIUM BRUSSELS, JULY 22.—During the first six months of 1851 the revenue. has amounted to 38,066.941 f., being 937,602 f. more than during the first six months of last year. The increase has arisen chiefly from the tolls, the duty on beer, registry dues, and the post-office. The Government railways have brought in an increased revenue of 5,325 f. The 21st anniversary of the inauguration of his Majesty the KING was celebrated with great solem nity throughout the capital. The KING, attended by all the high officers of the state, attended Divine ser vice in the Church of St. Gudule. The body of the church was occupied by the Ministers, the diplomatic corps, the principal officers of state, and heads of the various Government departments. The officers of the civic guard and of the garrison, as well as the military schools, &c., were present. RUSSIA AND POLAND. ST. PETERSDURGH, JUNE 17.—The chief of the postal department has laid before the EMPEROR a re port of the postal service in 1850. From this it ap pears that the intercourse between the various towns has been considerably increased during the past year. Between Smolensk and Moscow the letters are inter changed four times a week instead of twice ; and in Riga the letters are received two days sooner from Smolensk than hitherto. This is likewise the case in regard to Kasan, Saratow, Carican, and Astrachan, in fact, the postal service is conducted on an altogether different footing since 1842, when the last report was made. A new postal map of European Russia is now being laid down. The mail carriages are to run on the projected Petersburgh and Moscow line, and one of our post-office functionaries has been sent abroad for the purpose of making himself personally ac quainted with the most minute postal arrangements in foreign countries. In the kingdom of Poland es pecially a very important change has been made in the postal service. Since Jan. 1, 1851, the Russian rates of postage have been introduced, and the management taken out of the hands of the Warsaw board of directors, and placed in those of the chief head of the postal administration of the empire. ITALY. C.:- The contumacious MARONGIEU, of Sassari, in Sar dinia, has decamped to Porto Ferraio, in the Island of Elba, where he will be under Tuscan, i. e., Austrian protection. We learn from the Risorgimento of Turin of the 17th, that several assassinations have just taken place at Rimini. The victims mentioned are a magistrate from Vergato, a carabineer, and a sailor, who was stabbed for smoking. THE LATE DR. LINGARD. Several curious reports having recently become cur rent in reference to the last moments of the Catholic historian of England, it will, doubtless, interest the publio to peruse the subjoined letter written by Mr. Johnson, the friend and medical attendant of Dr. Lin gard, and addressed to the publisher of the latest and best edition of the great work of our national annalist:— " Lancsater, 21st July, 1851. " Mr. Dolman—Sir,—The late Dr. Lingard is repre , vented in some newspapers as afraid of going to bed, be• cause afraid to die. " For many years, probably thirty or more, I have had the confide❑ce of the venerated historian as his medical adviser and friend. I beg to state that he never manifested on any occasion whatever an unrea sonable fear of any kind. He was, in my humble judgment, as wise and good a man. his mind as highly cultivated and as thoroughly disciplined, as is attainable in this life. "During the whole of his last illness he was uniformly cheerful, tranquil, and resigned. Not a word or ges ture betrayed complaint, impatience, or dread of any kind. " My religious creed is different from his and yours, and I am personally unknown topyou; but I know that you were esteemed by Dr. Lingard, and am sure you will take an interest in his posthumous character. You will use this note, or any part of it, with or without my name, as you think proper. " I remain, Sir, yours very faithfully, " CHRISTOPHER. JOHNSON." (A true copy, C. DOLMAN.) TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—.III a case of assault which came before Sir Chapman Marshall, at the Guildhall Police court, on Monday last, and which was reported in your police intelligence of yesterday, your reporter has misstated the name of the defendant to be " Mr. Edward Vaughan Lovell " instead of " Mr. Edward Bourne Lovell." You will, therefore, oblige me if you will correct the above mistake. I am, Sir, &c., Temple, July 23, 1851. P. LENAGHAN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The thanksoFailhCildera of railway property are eminently due to you for the unwavering support you have given to their interests on all fair occasions, and especially when they have been, as at present, so mercilessly and unjustly assailed by a class of men tech nically styled Bears. The remarks in the Money article of your yester day's impression are most just. lam no gambler, no speculator for a fall or rise, but an inverter of such of my earnings as can be spared from capital in either railway or other securities. I bought Midland shares at 501., believing them to be a good investment; they went up to 661., and I did not sell. Within six weeks they are jobbed down to 381., and why? Because, owing to a particular and temporary competition for passenger traffic of a certain class, their traffic for some few weeks has not shown well, and so the Bulls " bang" the mar ket; but let holders of Midlands keep en their guard. Do not sell a share. Depend upon it you have a sound, safe, and improving traffic, and, if I mistake not, the Bears will soon have to be Bulls, or they will be dread fully bit. There is a dead set at rails just now, but it is all for a known gambling purpose, and must be temporary. All bond fide holders should button up their breeches' pocket and bide their time. I shall, and I know I shall prove right.—Yours truly, A LEGITIMATE RAILWAY INVESTER. July 22, 1851. Thai LATE Ma. Sneth.—The remains of the late Right Hon. R. L. Sheil are to be conveyed to Ireland from Florence, for interment at Long Orchard, in the county of Tipperary. Lord Palmerston, in a communication to M. Shed, intimated the readiness of the Admiralty to convey the remains of her late husband to Ireland in a vessel of war; and, on the receipt of the reply of that lady, expressing her anxiety that such accommodation should be afforded, the necessary order has been issued. A committee is in course of formation in Dublin with the view of raising, by public subscription, a fund for the erection of a monument to the deceased statesman.—Chronicle. ' SCOTTISH FESTIVAL —On Monday the national game of Carumanachd or Shinnie, was played on Blackheath, according to custom, by the society of Commn na Gail and friends. This exhilarating sport is not introduced at Holland Park, but when there is a goodly muster of well-trained players it is an interesting sight, the contention for the hale being sometimes long and keen. It is a favourite game of the Highlanders, and is admirable as affording opportunity for the display of athletic vigour and activity. The day was beautiful—too warm, indeed, for sport which requires such exertion—but the Gael, stripped to their shirts, did not shrink. The pleasures of the day were wound up by a dinner, plain and substantial, but ample and appropriate to a gathering of Highlandmen and " brither Scots," with their wives, sisters, and sweethearts, provided at the usual rendezvous, the Princess of Wales. FANCY BAZAAR. AT VAUXHALL GARDENS.—Yes terday at a meeting of the friends of the Royal Orthopedic Hospital, it was stated that the forthcoming fife and fancy bazaar in aid of the building fund, would take place at Vaux hall-gardens on the 29th and 30th inst. Her Majesty sad a numerous list of distinguished individuals have extended their special patronage to the undertaking. THE THANKSGIVING MODEL L OD GING -HOUSES. — It will be recollected that the Society for the Improvement of the Condition of the Labouring Classes resolved in com memoration of the removal of the cholera in 1849 to erect a group of model lodging-houses to bear the name of " Thanksgiving." The site selected was formerly occupied as the Sun or " Wyatt's Ale Brewery" in Portpool-lane, a locality where it is well known that the crowded, confined, and ill-ventilated rooms abound, affecting both the moral and sanitary condition of the neighbourhood. The building has been erected upon the same principle as Prince Albert's model houses in Hyde-park, with the same improved system of ventilation and preservation from the application of patent metallic lava to the roofs, the whole of the fore -court areas, washhouse, &c. The extreme length of the buildings are 130 feet 7 inches, and about 97 feet in width, and contain accom modation for eight small families, with two rooms and a scullery each, and for twelve large families, with three rooms and a scullery each ; and for 128 women, two in each room, which is upon the average of twelve feet six inches by nine feet. The whole is now just completed, and will in a few days be fit for the reception of inmates. The following in scription has been placed upon one of the principal fronts : " Thanksgiving Model Buildings, erected in commemoration of the removal of the cholera in 1849. Offer unto God thanksgiving, and pay thy vows unto the Most High.'— Psalm 50, v. 14." Two CHILDREN FOUND MURDERED.—At an early hour yesterday morning the mutilated body of a newly-born male child was discovered by t wo b oys i n the ruins of some old houses in Lambeth-street, I Vhitechapel. The deceased was tied up in an apron, but the head and other parts were battered in from external violence. The boys gave the body to Police-constable 27 11, who carried it to the Leman-street station, where Mr. Meeres, the surgeon, made an examina tion of the same. He was of opinion that the child had been born alive, and its death was the result of great violence, Since the discovery a female living in the neighbourhood has been taken into custody by the police on suspicion of causing the de a th o f th e infant. Another body of a child was found by the police yesterday morning on the step of a door in Londoa-wall, City. The child had been recently born, wad routs of Tioleuce wort yisible 211 the land and Railways. I Paid. Nominel Prices.
