Mill and Hughes to take up the subject. They have come forward with two bills, named respective)v " The M un i c i pa l Corporations Metropolis Bill," and " The Corporation of London Bill." The first-mentioned seeks to divide London into nine municipal boroughs, with mayor, aldermen, and cairn: mon council foreach, with a common seal, and all the usual rights appertaining to a municipal borough. Justices of the peace for the borough may be appointed by the Qtieen, and in each case a stipendiary police magistrate, to be also a justice of the peace, is to be appointed. The existing- vestries, of course, would be thus abolished, and any property rested in them is to be transferred to the councils of the new boroughs. The bill, however, does not affect either the City of London proper or the present Board of Works. With regard to these, the Corporation of London Bill is brought forward.

COFEItv 5 " 85, quen-street, Chenaide. The following is the text of the address of the Bishop of Orleans on the occasion of the Enipe- ror's visit to the cathedral of that city : SIRE,—At the moment your Majesty places your fart on the threshold of this ancient Basilica, rich in grand reminiscences, I have the honour to present to you the good wishes and homage of the clergy of the city and diocese of Orleans. " I make bold to say that throughout the whole of France your Majesty has not met with a nobler, more Christian, and more French city. " Orleans has, twice at least, had the special happiness and honour of being the last and the victarious bulwark of _our. country 40 . iii4 foreign I invasion. . "Paris, which I name with respect, has more than once allowed its gates to be forced by the stranger, Orleans never. " Our river La Loire has always proved an impassable barrier. "It was only yesterday that we celebrated the 439th anniversary of that memorable day when a young girl of seventeen years of age, sent by God, delivered Orleans and saved France. " Already in the age of barbarism one of our greatest bishops, Saint Aignan, drove hence, cross in hand, him who in his fierce pride styled himself the scourge of God. "In those two great moments of trial Orleans was not the only rampart, but the heart of France, where the fast pulse of national emotions might be heard to beat. But, thanks to God, the heart was strong; and `soon that, independence- which was .threatened, liberty, and the future were all re copquered. "As your Majesty has deigned to visit us, place your 'hand upon that heart, for it still beats the same. The citizems of Orleans have not changed, and your Majesty will understand that amidst the -confusion of men and things there are always two pulses of indomitable strength—the patriotism which surrounds you, and religion. You will here, perhaps, more than in any other part of the Em pire, feel that France, when • her soul is carefully interrogated, is, and wishes ever to be, the most Christian nation, and that in this double flame of patriotism and faith she has always found her honour and her fortune since the days of Charle magne. " We ask from God, sire, that the inspirations of that immortal monarch who did so much for Christian and French civilization may be those of your Majesty, and may ever live blessed and faithful in the heart of the eldest son of the Church. " We cannot raise our wishes higher, or form others more worthy of you, of France, of religion, and more decisive for the future, which God always holds in Ilis powerful hands. " You have desired, sire, a happy rapprochement between the festivities in honour of Joan of Arc and the festival of agriculture. This mixture of dpp t s the E sist riches :ennoinet.lsdew.ivtiait o oirtr f lnehst, our fields, despite their momentary j a eo n e uidirllopsf festivaleotruhi ls e sho c aft boo Join imperishable reminiscences t of o nf fiAs broaderl c a re c b n oacitnesuds, more over, thetorber e: Do t ovoletmcr,hrientinrguyll was v e y a n for a ouragricultural rie daughteruc l o t u u n ro t a r fl y t , fhee t her ee o; thistory,ttahgeevt virgin and her of those generous-hearted peasants whose e issue of hand knows how to conquer, till, and defend the soil. The festival of Joan of Arc is also that of all Christian women and French women, and you have thus interpreted it, madam, by deigning to take part in it. Joan of Arc not only saved France, —it is France herself that she represents ; that sensitive and proud, tender and valorous nation. We like to gaze at her ; and that image cannot dis please your sight under the features of Joan of Arc, with the inspired heart of a young girl under a warrior's armour. ,‘ You have deigned, madam, to take part in our solemnities, and this idea also moves me the morrow of a day on which religion has granted you the purest joy allowed here below to the heart of a mother. " Your Majesty has just beheld your son kneel ing and taking for the first time the nourishment of the bread of life at the altar of that God who loves and blesses that age. That sight brought pious tears from your eyes. May your Majesty never shed others than such ; may you behold the young Prince, your love and your hope, grow up in that strong piety which is, as Boauet sail of the son of Louis XIV., ' everything for man and prince.' May his first sacrament remain in the deep and indelible remembrance of his life. That is what the venerated head of our Church asked from God for himself when from the height of the apostolic throne, always so valiantly supported by our arms, Pius IX. blessed him at the very moment that he received for the first time the visit of his God !" The effect produced by this speech, to the elo quence of which, I must observe, this imperfect translation does but scanty justice, was, I am in formed, says the Paris correspondent of the Stan dard, extremely great. The sight in itself was very impressive. Bishop Dupanloup, with his towering stature, in his sacerdotal robes, looking every inch a worthy successor of the old Bishop of Orleans who overthrew Attila, the grim old cathe dral, the surrounding clergy, all grouped round their pastor, formed a tableau which few could view without feeling deeply stirred. The athireds itself, every word of which was clearly heard, greatly affected the Empress, and even the impas sive features of Napoleon exhibited some signs of emotion. In reply the Emperor said : " I am much touched by the noble words which you have just addrelsed to me. It is on this spot that we can dwell with happiness upon how much religious faith and true patriotism can effect for the safety and grandeur of a country. In this city was produced one of the most wonderful facts of history. The river which flows beneath your walls has been one of the ramparts of our independence, in the same manner as it protected in less distant times the heroic remnants of the grand army. The Empress and myself, in coming to share in the popular festivities of Orleans, were desirous first to kneel within that ancient Basilica, and, surrounded by the grand remembrances of the past, to ask from the Almighty his protection for the future." The cortege then proceeded towards the choir, and immediately 300 voices, accompanied by the organ, 'chanted the psalm of Lmtatus Sum, which was followed by the Te Deum and Domine Saloum, The ceremony terminated by a solemn benediction from the bishop. Their Majesties were afterwards present at the distribution of prizes at the agricul tural show, and while examining some of the most remarkable productions addressed to the exhibitors words of congratulation and encouragement. The Emperor Himself handed to M. Thibault, farmer, of Villameslain, the prize of honour awarded to him, and also decorated several of the successful competitors with the Cross of the Legion of Honour. A number of tho religious, judicial, ciyil, and 4a. STAMPED 51. military authorities were then presented, after which their Majesties set out for the railway station, amid loud cries of " Vive l'Empereur ! Vive l'lmperatrice ! Vive le Prince imperial !" and set off for Paris, where they arrived in time for dinner. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. VALETTA, May s.—Since the last mail left for England there have been two departures for the I squadron the despatch-vessel Psyche, Lieut.- Corn. Sir Francis Black wood, on Wed ues.lay night, ,he 29th ult., and the Trinculo, gunboat, Lieut.- Com. F. de V. Sanders, to-day. • The Psyche took -with her several officers of the garrison, who intend - .visiting Jerusalem and other places in the Holy Land. She had orders to call at Syracuse to land th ere a telegraph clerk, with some 200 despatches, to be telegraphed thence to England and the Con tirent, the cable between Malta and Sicily having stcpped working that day, owing to the singular .1141 unusuil fault of the fracture of the conducting mire, while its insulating envelope was left unin jit -Id. On the following morning the cable was mitlerrun by the steamer Hawk, and everything niade ready for repairing the line, but, owing to unf.Avourable weather, this could not be attempted until the next cloyi-Aipltert-gthe 4net44ry-ed4wasfrieked up on the Dragut Shoal, about a mile outside Malta harbour. About 1 p.m. on the Ist inst. the line was re-opened to the public. The squadron, under the command of Lord Clarence Paget, C. 8., has arrived at Jaffa. Her Majesty's screw steam sloop Racer, 11, Com. L. Brine, which had been assisting in the repair of the Malta and Alexandria telegraph cable, returned to Malta on the Ist inst., ten days from Alexandria. This vessel was taken into the Royal Naval Dock on the 2d instant, when it was found that she had sustained serious damage, having lost her false keel, and considerably injured her main keel. During the time she was on the rocks, and when the lives of all on board were iu great danger, the conduct of the crew was most exem plary, and the order to furl sail was as coolly and promptly executed as if she were at her moorings in Malta harbour. The Egyptian Government yacht Mahroussa arrived here on the 28th ult. from Alexandria, for docking and cleaning purposes. Her Majesty's despatch vessel Caradoc, Lieut.- Corn. the Hon. Henry H. A'Court, will be inspected on Friday next, previous to her departure on the following day for the Dardanelles, to resume her post on that station. Com. Elphinstone, formerly of this vessel, left Malta by the last Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer for England on promotion. Major-General Joseph Oates Travers, C. 8., Inspector-General of the Royal Naval Forces, com menced bis annual inspection for the present year of the Royal Marines at Portsmouth, with an in spection of the Royal Marine Light Infantry at Gosport, on Monday. Yesterday the entire force of artillery and infantry was brigaded on Soutbsea common. The trial of ,her Majesty's ship Bullfinch under steam was made yesterday, at the measured mile of Maplin Sands. The Bullfinch has been built and, fitted for sea at Sheerness from designs furnished by the Controller's Department, Whitehall. The vessel is of 663 tons, 170 ft. in length, and 29ft. beam. Captain the Hon. A. A. Cochrane, C. 8., of the Sheerness Steam Reserve, was in charge of the ship. Messrs. W. W. Williamson, chief inspector of machinery afloat, and J. Ward, R.N., chief of the steam factory at Sheerness, were in attendance on behalf of the Government. The engines are of the combined power of 160 horses, working two screw propellers of the Mangin description; diarneter 7ft. 3in., pitch lift. 41in., and immersion of the upper edge 12in. Tau draft of wat•,'r during the trial was Bft. 10in, forward, and 10ft. 2in. aft. The mean speed of the vessel was 11.011 knots ; the re volutions 132 per minute ; pressure of steam in boilers 281 b. ; vacuum 241, and approximate indi cated horse power 917. The engines of the Bull finch are constructed by Messrs. 'l'. a❑d G. Rennie, and are similar to those of the Lapwing, Swallow, and Curlew. The trial of the Bullfinch was most satisfactory, there being no stoppages through priming, hot bearinga, or other casualty. The engines were under the charge of Messrs. J. and G. Rennie during the trial. Advices from the West India and Pacific naval stationß, received by a Southampton correspon dent, report the following movements of ber Ma jesty's ships of war :—The Favourite left Jamaica for Bermuda on the 22d of April ; the Fawn was under orders to leave for Portsmouth on the 26th ; the Jason and Barracouta, at Jamaica, were ordered to Halifax and expected to leave at the end of the month, and the Phoebe was ordered to Hayti and St. Domingo for a cruise. The Aboukir was at Port Royal, Jamaica ; the Royalist was daily ex pected at Jamaica from Bermuda, and the Mullet from the West Coast of Africa; the Gannet was at Trinidad; the Doris was to proceed to Bermuda, calling at Barbadoes ; the Niger was expected at Barbadoes from Halifax and Jamaica ; the Cor delia, in the Gulf of Mexico, had been ordered home to England to be paid off ; the flagship Topaze, Commodore Powell, arrived at Panama on the 20th of April from Valparaiso ; the Scout, Capt. Price, was to leave Panama for Vancouver on the 22d ; the corvette Reindeer, Commander Nares, arrived at Vancouver on the 2d of March from Panama, all well ; the Malacca was at Tobago. Yesterday the whole of the Ist Division Depot Brigade Royal Artillery, stationed at Sheerness, were inspected ou the garrison parade by Major- General Freeman Murray, commandant o Chat ham garrison and the south-eastern district. The gallant General arrived on the parade at 10 o'clock, and was received with the usual general salute, after which the line was minutely inspected. The bri gade, which numbered eight batteries, then marched past in open and quarter distance column in quick time. The men were then put through the manual and pl ttoon exercise by Colonel It. 11. Crof ton, the commandant of Sheerness garrison, after which various field day evolutions were gone through, eliding with the wholo lino advancing rind giving the general salute, under the command of Lieut.- Colonel Nuttall, second in command at Sheerness. The drill, which had occupied all the morning, ended with an inspection of the kits and clothing lately issued. After visiting the married sol diers' quarters, the schoolrooms, and the new fort at the Garrison Point, General Murray lunched with the officers in the new mess-room. Afterwards several detachments were told off to the Armstrong guns on each centre bastion and the field-pieces stationed on the beach, from which some fine shot practice was made at targets moored out at sea. Examinations were made of the gartison books, which were found highly satisfactory. The num ber of men on parade was about 400, and, con sidering that the principal part of them were re cruits, the manoeuvres were executed in a highly creditable manner. We record to-day the death of Major-General Edward Rowland Mainwaring. Ile served through out the whole of the Affghan campaigns in 1839- 40-41-42, including the assault and capture of Ghuznee. In the subsequent year he was engaged at the night attack at Baboo, Kooshgoh, and the destruction of Khoodawah. lie was one of the garrison of Jellalabad, and served in •the general action and defeat of Akbar Khan, and the subse quent operations leading to the reoccupation of Cabul ; was attached to the left wing of the army of Gwalior, and present on the Staff at the battle of Punniar.

General of births and deaths in London and thirteen other large towns of the United Kingdom : In the week that ended on Saturday, May 9, 4,805 births and 2,903 deaths were registered in London and in thirteen other large towns of the United Kingdom. The annual rate of mortlliti - WaS 24 per tOO6 perions The annual rate of mortality last week was 22 per 1,060 in London, 22 in Edinburgh, and 26 in Dublin ; 26 in Dr:stol, 20 in B:rmingham, 25 in Liverpool, 28 in Man• chester, 24 in Salford, 23 in Sheffield, 25 in Bradford, 22 in Leeds, 19 in Hull, 20 in Newcastle•upon-Tyne, and 30, in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 31 per 1,000 during the week ending the 2nd inst., when the mean tempera. ture was 0 . 4 deg. Fahrenheit higher than in the same week in London, where the rate was 23. In London the births of 1,154 boys and 1,102 girls, in at, 2,256 children, were registered in the week. In the corre., sponding weeks of ten years, 1858-67, the average number, corrected for increase of population, is 2,100. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,340. It was the nineteenth week of the year, and the aver. age number of deaths for that week is, with a correc• tion for increase of population, 1,377. The deaths in the present return are less by 37 than the estimated number. The annual rate of mortality was 21 per 1,000 in West London, 21 in North London, 23 in Central London, 27 in East London, and 21 in South London. During the month of April 94,800,016 gallons, or 430,720 cubic metres of water (equal to about as many tuns by measure, tons by weight), were supplied daily by the water companies in the metropolis, or 957 litres, rather less than a ton by weight, to each house, and 138 litres (=30.3 gallons) to each person. It maybe estimated that about 77,910,600 gallons were probably used for domestic purposes, or about 24 . 9 gallons per day for each inhabitant. 43,652,645 gallons of the water supplied daily were taken from the Thames, and 46,147,371 gallons from the Lea and other sources. The return for April as compared with that for March shews an increase of 425 houses, and an increase of 1,702,025 gallons of water sup plied daily. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29 - 816 in. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 53 . 3 deg., which is 1.9 deg. above the average of the same week in fifty years (as determined by Mr. Glaishez). The highest day temperature was 82 . 3 deg., on Sunday, the 3rd of May. The lowest night temperature was 33 . 9 deg., on Thursday, the 7th of May. The entire range of temperature in the week was, therefore, 48 . 4 deg. Prince Charles of Roumania has shewn himself open to conviction. In consequence of the strong representations made to him by Austria and some other Powers, he has been induced to examine for himself.into the reported cases of persecution of the Jews. They had been officially denied by his Ministers, but he finds that they were true, and he has severely punished the authors of these atroci ties. It is to be hoped that the drastic treatment which he has adopted may purge out the leaven of intolerance. A shocking and fatal accident has occurred to an artilleryman named George Rowley, a private in the B battery or ', he 4th brigade. The battery was on the march from Mansfield to Nottingham, and having ridden on one of the waggons for two or three miles, Rowley at tempted to get off for the purpose of walking. In doing this his spur caught the drag chain and threw him on the ground, and the wheel passed over his chest. The poor fellow survived the accident only an hour and a half. Mr. G. F. Train has delivered a lecture in the long room of the Rotundo to a larger audience than attended any of his previous lectures in, Dublin. He declared his intention of lecturing iu Manchester for the benefit of the families of the men executed for the murder of Sergeant Brett. An elderly lady stood up from amongst the audience and dramatically presented him with 10s. fur the same purpose. At the conclusion of the lecture the audience, who left the Rotundo in a turbulent mob, cheer. 1 through a portion of Sackville•street, but a force of police making their appearance the crowd separated, without any further disturbance. We have to announce the death of Lady Annaly, which took place on Tuesday afternoon at the family resi dence in Grosvenor-place, after a short and severe illness. This greatly respected and lamented lady was a daughter of Mr. W. S. Dempster, of Skibo Castle, county Suther land ; and married, in 1829, Colonel Henry White, of Woodlands, county Dublin, by whom she leaves a family. The youngest is Captain the Hon. Charles White, M.P. for county Tipperary, and a daughter is married to Cap tain the Hon. Robert W. Grosvenor, M.P. for West minster. THE LATE LORD BROUGHAM—The information respecting the burial of the late Lord Brougham was pre. mature, in so far as it was stated that his remains would be placed in the same grave as his mother, near Brougham Hall, Westmoreland. We are informed on the best autho rity that Lord Brougham was buried on Sunday afternoon at the Protestant church at West Cannes, only a short dis tance from the noble lord's villa. The funeral was, we understand, at the request of the local authorities, a public one.—Post. VISIT OF PRINCE ARTHUR TO SOUTHEND.—This pretty watering-place is to have the advantage of the pre- Bence of royalty this week in the person of Prince Arthur, who, it appears, is coming down to Shoeburyness for pro- fessional purposes, and will make a stay of a week. The prince has come down with the cadets, so that he will go to Shoeburyness every day. The suite of rooms occupied by his Royal Highness in the Royal Hotel are delightfully situated, overlooking the shrubbery and the pier, Sheer ness, the Nore, &e.—Essex Herald. FATAL I3OILER EXPLOSION IN HULL. —On Tues day afternoon a boiler explosion took place on the pre. raises of Mr. Hall, builder, Dansom-lane, which has resulted in the immediate death of the son of that gentle. man, whilst another man named Cherry and two boys have received injuries which, in the case of the former, must prove fatal. It appears that the boiler had just been fixed, and steam was got up for the purpose of trying it, when the boiler burst with a dreadful noise, shattering the building in which it was erected, and shaking the adjoin ing houses to a frightful extent. No cause is Assigned foi the explosion.—Eastern Morning News. SCIENCE AND ART IN IRELAND.—IICT Majesty's Government, with a view of constituting a separate de partment of science and art for Ireland, analogous in its constitution to the existing science and art department in London, and of amalgamating as far as possible all existing institutions in Ireland receiving S ta t e grants for science or art, have appointed a commission to report on the best means of carrying out this o b j ect.

SUICIDE OF THE GOVERNOR OF AYR GAOL.—Mr. Robert Sutherland, a gentleman about 4a years of age, governor of Ayr Gaul, committed suicide in a beershop in London on Sunday. The dec.:ased told his wife and children, who resided with him in the gaol, that he was going to Edinburgh, and left them on Saturday. He came direct to London, and took lodgings at the Hand-in. Hand beershop, Duke-street, near London Bridge.
