General BLAIR, we learn by the telegraph, has accepted his nomination by the Democatic Conven tion as candidate for the Vice-Presidency of the United States, and we may suppose that Mr. SEY MOUR will not be averse to his selection by the Convention as the future President. We have hitherto heard little of these names in connection with the long-talked of struggle, though there have not been wanting plenty of candidates on paper for both sides. GRANT himself, who is now the chosen representative of the Republican plat form, was at one time talked of as likely to be put forward by the Democrats. Recently Chief Justice CHASE has been freely discussed as likely to fill that position, though his theories respecting universal suffrage have proved a stum bling-block. It shows the uncertain and conflict ing state of American politics that GRANT, who is now nominated by the Republicans, was formerly thought of by their opponents, while CHASE has been talked of as the nominee of both sides without his own individual opinions having undergone any change. His independent and impartial administra tion of affairs during the Impeachment trial alienated the Radicals and forfeited his chance of nomination by them, • while it gave hope to some of the Democrats that they might find in him a just and enlightened ruler. Certainly Mr. CHASE could not have supported the new financial theory adoptel by the Democrats, but it is not pe culiar to them. The House of Representatives, in which we know the Republicans have a vast pre ponderance, have recently decided upon taxing the State bondholders "at least 10 per cent.," and the leading Radicals, STEVENS, BUTLER, and others have long advocated some short and simple method of cutting the gordian-knot of the financial diffi culty. At Chicago, indeed, the question was not discussed, but General GRANT, in his acceptance of the nomination, dwelt much upon the duty incumbent on a President of obeying the expressed wish of the people—thus leaving a loophole for escape from any perplexing situation. The nomination of Mr. JOHNSON has never been looked for, as it was known he would have had little chance, and he has frequently de clared that he bad no wish to renew his term of office. He has played his part and done good ser vice at a critical and momentous time, whatever his imprudences or his shortcomings. Americans may be thankful that they have had at the head of affairs at this crisis so resolute and uncompromising a defender of the old constitutional doctrines, which embraced the whole of the States as one nation. Just as we were congratulating ourselves that affairs were peaceable throughout Europa news come from Spain that is of a distressing character, and bodes ill for the future policy of the country. The Duke of MONTPENSIER and the Duchess (the sister of the Queen of SPAIN) were arrested last Thursday at Seville, and only allowed two hours to leave the country. They were afterwards taken to Cadiz, and there embarked to some place they did not know of ; but since then information has been rezeived that they were to be taken to England. This last piece of intelligence is not confirmed, and partakes of the confused nature of Spanish news altogether, which generally puzzles those most versed in such matters, and capable of elucidating the mysteries of foreign affairs. There is too much fuss made to proclaim that all is quiet to impart any real confidence, and after looking at the sudden changes and stormy scenes that have fullowe 1 upon these tranquil epochs we may well distrust tlwin for the future. This last exploit of indignation bids fair to eclipse all those that have proceeded, and seems at any rate to she, .v that it is no make-believe or trivial matter, but a bona fide affair so far as inten tions are concerned. The relations of the QUEEN, and those who under rare circumstances might inherit the throne, to be forcibly expelled the coun try is indeed a serious thing, and sad as it is serious to contemplate. The fact is that we are not at all au courant with the affairs of Spain, and so many hindrances are interposed in the way of those seek ing for information, that it is idle to expect we can follow events as we can in other countries more distant. M. GONZALEZ BRAVO, the President of the Spanish Ministry, acts in a very strange manner, and refuses to let the news circulate as it ought, and certainly would under the influence of a more enlightened statesman. It is said that he is actually absurd enough to think that by this means he outwits the calculations of journalists, and pre vents them from making comments on his policy. It is always difficult to make out the tactics of such arbitrary individuals, and hence there is no cause for surprise and disappointment that this country, with the other enlightened nations of Europe, is totally at a loss to account fur Spanish affairs, and must finally content itself with wondering and la menting by turns whenever and anon the extraor dinary news reaches it that tells of conspiracies, imprisonment, banishment, and so on. At any rate, to measure them by their own standard, the autho rities of Spain believe that they had discovered a plot in Madrid, in which six generals were impli cated, and in which the Duke of MONTPENSIER had a share. In the usual ambiguoUs style. of the coun try the telegram declares that the Government had full information of the Duke's complicity in the affair, and the QUEEN had also conveyed her know lenge of the fact. For many reasons we must regret this circum stance, and though in all probability it is not founded on fact, still the impression produced thereby will be unfavourable to the Duke, who has been very popular through the country, and de servedly- so, for his advanced policy and his frank and confiding manner. Tho QUEEN, it is true, was not friendly to the Duke or even to the Duchess, but at the same time it was not sup posed that any idea could be entertained of a nature like this now conveys. The Spaniards were more likely to get on with a military man at the bead of affairs than with a civilian, and the present ruler in Spain is one not to be admiral for his qualities, or re spected for his - actions. Hi 3 ingenuity at least cannot be doubted, and he has taken desperate means to put his enemies hors de combat, and it must remain a moot point if the. Generals who have been r.rrested after so summary a fas!iion were guilty or innocent. At any rate they were to blame for coming in the way of BnAvo, and he has taken very good care to get them out of it. There is lit•le to envy the Qum of SPAIN in a throne that is only maintained by force, and which depends on the bayonets of her armies, instead Of resting on the respect and regard of her people ; but by this time every one may be too well accustomed to con- spiracies and plots in Spain, for theirdiscovery,real or imaginery,to occa3ion much alarna,or to cause or sane- tion desperate measures. When all this is over, we do not see how the Minister will be more secure or his Government more popular. He may imprison and banish to a large extent, but he must put bounds to his indignation, and fix some limits to his arbi- Li v NOTiIING IMPOSSIBLE. G(.1.1.

When the Prince is gone, and the Generals made away with, there will still remain enough, and more than enough, on his hands that' will require more zeal and ability than he possesses to deal with. The condition of Spain, and the state to which the poorer classes is reduced, are something frightful to contemplate, and it is indeed idle to stem the torrent by such paltry measures as those employed. When one enemy is put down another will start up, and so long as an arbitrary and aggressive course is pursued, instead of a rational policy, there will be no likelihood of anything prospering of a domestic character, and certainly no stability can be :imparted to the Government. The acts and devices to which GONZALEZ BRAVO has had re course to are really contemptible, and they only show his weakness, instead of proving his strength, as he would fain believe. There is much to deplore in the present aspect of Spanish affairs, and it would almost seem as if things could not be righted until still more serious conjunctures have arisen. We may look upon this last proof of the indictiveness of the Spanish Minister as a sure sign that be feels most unsafe, and is glad of any prextext to show that he can strike a blow. It is matter of doubt if there was a conspiracy at all worthy of the name, and it is certainly sure that the recent alarm that has been made about it, and the means employed to suppress it, are not warranted. The Wimbledon Meeting has now become one of the regular events of the year, and fortunately for all concerned every season it improves in the man ner in which it is conducted. There has never been much reason to find fault with the system of orga- nisation, but every year matters have worked more smoothly, and the unremitting attention which the council of management have given to arrangements has produced its effect. Notwithst tnding the great labour which attends the organisation of so large a camp there is no delay or difficulty in setting to work, and those who were present on Saturday to witness the preparations for the grand campaign must have been gratified at the business like manner in which the volunteers went to work, and soon converted the common into a mimic battlefield. The common itself is reported to be in admirable condition, being all the better no doubt for the dry weather, though the long threatened rain came down heavily at night and gave the amateur soldiers plenty of occupation in digging trenches to allow the water to escape. There have been some improvements made in the manner of pitching the tents, so that free communication from one to another will be had, and some sanitary arrange ments have been effected which it is thought will be beneficial. With regard to the actual business of the meeting, some fresh rules have been determined upon which are calculated to do good service. The most important is one which provides that in case of a volunteer failing to attend at the firing point at the specified hour, and so by his own neglect missing the chance of competing for the prize, he forfeits his claim for such competition. This is a very just and reason able provision of which no one has any right to complain. There is often much time lost by the unpunctuality of competitors for the several prizes, and spectators will rejoice over the enforcement of so salutarya regulation. With respect to the volunteers themselves it ought to be no hardship. Punctuality is one of the first minor duties of the soldier, and no efficient military work can be done without it. It is in these matters that the chief difference is visible between our volunteer forces and our regular forces. The former seem too much inclined to think that, because they are amateurs, they can please themselves, whereas any one who forms part of an association binds himself to comply with its rules. The recent drawbacks to the success of the Windsor Review were due to this want of method, of punctuality, and of regular discipline; and, as our Volunteers aim at something more than mere paititne, and their capacities entitle them to respect as valuable military auxiliaries, they should amend these failings, and emulate the faultless punctuality and order of the regular troops. miscellany will notice that it, as well as the New Monthly laagazine, has returned to the office of Mr. Bentley, and is now published by that gentle man. It is lively and varied as ever, showing in deed a little fresh variety, and containing more general readitig than heretofore. There are literary articles as well as narratives of adventure and cf travel, interspersed with poems and novels or chap ters of novels. " What will the World say ?" treats of the universal supremacy of . Mrs. Grundy.• "Three Contemporary Poets" criticises the rival merits of Tennyson, Longfellow, and Bryant. " In Dixie," by a Confederate staff officer, gives but a dismal picture of prison life during the war, while " The Companions of Death" and " The Three Viscounts" are two tales from continental sources. " From London to Lahore" is the title of a paper strongly recommend ing the Euphrates Valley route to India. COLBURN'S UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE.—This is a good number in a military sense, so far as practical defences and fortifica tions aro concerned. A wonderful change has taken place in artillery, both as regards power and range, and consequently it necessitates a corresponding change in knowledge and practice almost wholly superseding the lessons of former times, when we were presumed to be all perfection, if not something better ! Bat experience tells ano ther tale, and the schoolmaster's "occupation is gone" for the season. The world is ever changing. Let the reader to refer to "A Brief Investigation of Certain Principles Affecting the Employment of Artillery in the Field," and " Fortification and the Defences of the Kin gdom,No:ll," in the present num ber, for instruction and hope, particularly to some pertinent observations of the French General Trochu, on the improved range of musketry and artil lery, rendering the secret of success in rapidity of movement on land, just as promptitude of daring carries a ship by boarding at the lucky moment, for luck is everything in war. "Notes on the History of the British Soldier," by Dr. C. A. Gordon, C. 8., contains some interesting points of knowledge as to the original derivation of military terms. The infantry is derived from the Italian finite, a child, originally applied in a fatherly sense by a com mander to his followers as being all of the clan, and well known to each other. But how changed are feelings by circumstances, though yet a genial, good commander will carry his point by touching the sympathy of his men far sooner by kindly conduct than by hastiness, while he addresses his men with a fellow-feeling----" Come on, my boys, and at them," and a cheering hurrah. " The Naval Esti mates" is impartially considered, and the training, ships for men and boys are described by the Admi ralty as being the best possible nurseries for the navy, in which we cordially concur. The growing boys see and learn their duty from the good seamen, and eventually become themselves capital and effec tive sailors. Some other articles will well repay pernsal and study. COP.NHILL MAGAZINE. " The Bramleighs of Bishop's Folly" is more interesting than nsuAl in this instalment, and is in fact replete with incidents of an exciting character. There is the daring escape of the convict from the island, and the wonderful discovery of hidden treasure behind frescoes, and the claimant to the estates does not appear so bad upon acquaint ince. " Avonhoe" is likew . se im pressive in this number, and the scene at the keeper's lodge, when the elderly females touch on the past is very powerfully sketched, and both the mistress and her former servant are afraid of say- ing too much or too little. The conclu ling pas sage of this story bids fair to be of vivid interest. "Anarchy and Authority," by Matthew Arnold, is again considered, and oae more appearance is to be looked for. " Why have I Three Tails? "is an amusing article, that is sure to attract attention. I "Early English Newspapers" is a sketch of olden days that will well repay . perusal ; it shows the many serious peril 4 which surrounded the pioneers of the daily press. Those who in the seventeenth century " foundel the mighty system of our newspapers" had indeed to contend with prejudice of a most deterring character, and this glimpse of the days that are over may well cause surprise at the follies and absurdities which gained ground in the minds of many who were in their dty distinguished by wit and intelligence..

"Poppies in the Corn, or Glad flours in the Graver Years " is a very ck lightful sketch, which shows the charms of sea-side life to perfection. " Keeley and- its Neighbour hood " is another pleasing sketch, and that may be looked at with advantage.

Notwithstanding the importance of the event sot for de cision at the ground of the above club on Saturday last but few members put in an appearance; consequently the £lO sweepstakes, at 25 yards rise, 15 birds each, only brought together a dozen competitors. The shooting throughout the afternoon was excellent, coasidering that the birds, which were good in themselves, had the wind in their favour. Shortly after 3 p.m. Markham Spofforth "opened the ball," but he only succeeded in killing seven out of fifteen. Mr. Rudd . , whi had only brought down three, was forced to retire at the conclusion of the eighth round. Major Whittingstall and the Hon. R. C. Hill were put out in the ninth, and the tenth round proved unfortunate to J. Lamont, Esq., M.P., and Mr. Simpson. It is also worth recording that in this round Mr. Berkley Lucy, who had only missed three, dropped his bird at a distance of nearly a handred yards. In the twelfth Markham Spofforth had to resign further competition, as did Captain E. C. Nevill, and in the fourteenth round Mr. F. Norris and Captain Pemith had to stand out. At the termination of the fifteenth Viscount Stormont, the president of the club, who latterly seems to be regaining his old " form," was found to be the only one who ha 1 boon SUC3Ossful in scoring thirteen, so that he became the winner of the first prize, £9O. Two tied for the second prize of £2O, viz., Mr. Barkley Lucy.and Viscount Parker. In shooting off, at bird for bird, Mr. Lucy killed four in succession, and a; Viscount Parker miss° I his third, he, of course, had to bo content with the third swam] of £t9. The following is a list of prices quoted during the afternoon: -50 to 5 each asst Markham Spofforth and Viscount S!ormont ; to 5 each ngsz, Capt. Penrith, Berkley Lucy, F. Norris, and Viscount Parker. Tho first pr:Z 3 wa3 obtaiue I with a muzzle-loader by J. Grant, of St. James's-street ; Lucy used a central tiro gun by tho samo in•taor; and ono by Boattio secured he third prize. In the early part of the day Captain Nevin and the lon. R. 0.

SENSIBLE AND lIIDIANE.—The Lea.nington ma gistrates have refused to issu ) any order for muzzling dogs, the c4airman having expressed his opinion that muz zling was the most effectual moans of producing the evil it was supposed to prevent. Sharing iu the opinion of the magistracy, the local board ordered a number of iron troughs to be placed in different parts of the town, and supplied with water for the use of dogs. CORRESPONDENCE rum PARIS, ; (FllOll OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, SUNDAY, July 12, Prevost Paradol's new work, "La France Nouvelle," has excited so mach attention here that in four days the first edition was exhausted. Its doctrines may be speedily summed,up.. It is one of those warlike effusions which aid Imperial policy to frustrate the efforts of French Liberals in the true interests of France. It advocates a military supremacy which should enable France to encounter all Germany, or any portion of Germany, with Russia at its back. The consolidation of States so as to endanger that supremacy should be opposed to the utmost ; and therefore the passage of the Main by Prussia should be retorted by a French advance upon the Rhine. Englishmen have, however, very little right to complain, for one of the most remarkable passages is an expression of regret and envy at the influence and power of the Anglo-Saxon race. With the exception of Europe, the world is dominated by two nations, velonging to one family England and the United States. France first occupied North America and India, but the language and the blood of England have irrevocably conquered in both places. The spread of the Americans over both the north and south divisions of the New World is but a question of time. In Australia the march of events must be equally rapid. The production of wool has followed the production of gold ; agriculture must come next, and then manufactures. In all probability China will be for Australia what India has been for England ; the rest of the world, after Europe, is for the Anglo-Saxon, and no other nation can hope to prove a successful rival. The writer then endeavours to shew that as three parts of the world are English, France ought to aim at that influence in Europe which is denied to her elsewhere. M. Rouher is the editor of the Mon!tcur. 'I he debate on the annual subvcnt:on to that journal, the only notice able feature in the recent talk on the Budget, disclose 1 this fact. If we are to accept M. Rouher's statement, he is not only responsible for every line that appears in the Itioni teur, but is even compelled to devote much time to reading which indirectly bears on its contents. He read, it seams, a history of the time of 1792 before he felt ju,tified in inserting one article bearing upon the events of that period. The deputies did not appear to give M. Rouher much credit for his labours. His statement that the Moniteur always told the truth was provoked by M. Eugene Pelletan's opinion that it systematically promul gated false intelligence ; but the announcement gave rise to such derisive demonstrations that the poor Minister doubtless wished himself well out of the discussion: He had his reward, however, for the subvention was voted, and the discussion as to the literary articles came to nothing. Velocipedes are so much the rage here that velocipederie has become an indispensable bulletin. A race took place this week between a one-horse chaise and a velocipedist. The course was from Castres to Toulouse, a distance of forty-four miles. The journey was accomplished in six hours by the horse, and in twenty five minutes more by the velocipede. This mode of progression has been applied to aquatics, with success, I believe. The machinery is much the same, paddles taking the place of wheels. The application of steam to the conveyance is of course the next project. lam compelled to record another fire. Late last night part of the Central Market was destroyed, involving the loss of one life and an immense amount of property. Under ordinary circumstances such a fire would have been almost impossible, for the market is constructed of solid masses of iron and stone. The conflagration, however, took place whilst ninety tons of butter were in the edifice ready for the market. The blaze from this quantity of combustible material utterly destroyed the bu together with thousands of fowls, ens, and other com modities. It would appear from the Illoniteur's account of the affair, that M. Rouher had relaxed his editorial vigi lance a little. It says : " The cellars, despite their solidity, and their being completely fire-proof, were utterly ravaged by the fire." The report of a convention be:ween France and Spain, authorising the latter to occupy Rome in case of danger, is denied. There is no trustworthy news from Italy, though I still hear the chances of a Republican move ment confidently spoken of. THE WEATHER TABLE.-THIS DAY. METEOROLOGICAL REPORTS. Extreme Sea Monday, P.

Sea disturbance. REMARKS. Since Saturday the variations in barometrical pressure have been very small. Slight oscillations of a few hundredths of an inch are reported, but these have been variable in nature ; and readings this morning differ very little from those of yesterday and the day pre vious. Temperature, also, has not altered much ; but this morning it is somewhat lower. The winds this morning are light to moderate from the northwestward. They have generally remained between E. and N. since Saturday, and no force 'stronger than Gis reported. During the past forty-eight hours thunder-showers and heavy rain have visited our south-eastern districts and Valeneia ; but they have been very local. The weather this morning is again generally fine. The political part of the arrangement just concluued between Hungary and Croatia did not, according to the Times correspondent, present much difficulty. The autonomy of Croatia was conceded, the whole negotia tion turning upon the point where the line was to be drawn. Croatia shall administer her own affairs, and legislate for them in her own Diet,- whilst Imperial matters will be settled in the Hungarian Diet. The delegation to the General Assembly shall be selected by the Croatian depu ties from their own body. The finance question gave rise to more difficulty. The Croatians demanded the same independence in this respect, and offered the scarcely equitable bargain to pay towards common affairs, such as army, public debt, &c., what remained after the expenses of home administration had been defrayed. The obvious objections to this course were ultimately compromised. The direct taxes are set aside for internal affairs, and the indirect taxes will be under the management of the Hun garian Diet. Any deficiency in the internal administration will be made up from the latter source, and the rest will go for common affairs. The dejeaner to Mr. Bright, which was appointed to take place at the Limerick Athenmum to-day, has been Postponed until to-morrow, in consequence; it is stated, to allow time for the requisite arrangements. The Dublin c3rrespondent of the Standard, however, thinks there is a "hitch" in the proceedings, and pronounces this postpone-. ment as " failure the first." He asserts that a good many persons, even in Limerick, who under other circumstances would support Mr. Bright, will hold aloof from every demonstration in his honour in consequence of the extreme character of the politicians by whom he is surrounded, and into whose hands he has delivered hiniself. On the other hand, the representative of the Telegraph says : There is every likelihood that this will prove to be a great popular demonstration. Already numerous appli cations for tickets have been received from every consi derable town in the South of Ireland ; and there will, it is fcarJd, be much difficulty in accommodating all who are anxious to do honour to our distinguished visitor. It is arranged that the Limerick corporation will present an address to Mr. Bright, and the Roman Catholic Bishop of Limerick, the Very Rev. Dean O'Brien, and many of the clergy of the diocese will attend at the ckieitner. The statement published in one of the morning papers, that the Liberal electors of Carmarthen have chosen an Octogenarian to fight their battle at the next eleelon, is scarcely to be credited. The old gentleman, whose name is Colonel Stepney, was a Peninsular officer, and is in the 81st year of his age. 'lie Telegraph does not see why the colonel may not make an excellent senator. It reminds its readers that Cab began to learn Greek about the same time of life, and Marino Faliero was a famous Doge in spite of threescore years and odd. Only a few days since a list was published of many well known legislators who h:,ve determined to retire from par liamentary honours through advancing age, but here is an aspirant to legislative honours who " ran alone" at the time of the French Revolution, and who was a middle aged man when the last Reform Act was passed. Small boroughs have been repeatedly defended on the ground that they pave the way for young and brilliant men ; we shall now be told that they are havens of rest for old, mature, but untried cffic3rs. NAGAZ INES. DUBLIN.—" Sweet Anne Page" is very sad in this number, and the dark fate which enshrouded the heroine is a warning to those who persist iu sacri• ficing others to suit their own views and prejudices. Stephen Langton seems to have a bright future before him, and thus one portion of the tale is less chequered. "My Queen" is continued, and gives a pleasing account of the Charades and Tableaux, but the fair heroine's fortunes do not flourish in accordance with her success on the mimic stage here so quaintly represented. " Haunted Lives" is con tinued in a long instalment, which is very eventful. " Pleasant Passages from Early French History" refer to some interesting scenes that occurred among our neighbours, and are well worthy of perusal. " Music in Poetry" is a suggestive article, that will interest the attentive reader. It is said that some of our greatest prose writers have been poets of the first rank often, "but their work=, even while they illus trate the points of family-likeness, show yet more clearly the gulfs of essential difference between verse and prose." A paper on Dr. Doran's " Saints and Sinners" is very interesting, and some of the anecdotes are very amusing. " Ireland in 1868" is the concluding article, and it is said that of the three countries Ireland has her interests most con sulted. The first question is already before Par liament, and the Irish difficulty occupies the leading statesmen of the day. FRASER'S MAGAZINE.—" The Culture of Emer son" is the title of the opening paper, which takes an interesting survey of the gradual process by which the author of " Representative Men" has reached his present position as a leader of American thought. Nearly 40 years ago he stood a young preacher in a Boston pulpit, and one of the listeners to his earliest sermons has recorded the inefface able impression which was made upon his mind by the preacher. " The last thing," said this gentleman, "that any of us who heard him would have predicted for the youth whose quiet simplicity and pety captivated all was that he would become the religious revolutionist of Ame rica." Leaving this more thoughtful and serious article, we find ourselves in the midst of a pleasant artistic discussion on the Portraits at South Ken sington, introducing, too, a short discourse on B , res. '6 Bolsover Forest" is of a very different sort, t kking us into the midst of birds' nesting, _ _ forest rambles, and all the other wonders of a boy's life in the country. Among the remaining papers we find the third instalment of the Life of Sir Philip Sydney, by the late Robert Southey ; and a criticism on Kinglake's recent instalment of his "invasion of the Crimea." COLBURN'S NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE—(BeIit -1"Y, New Burlington-street).--" The Overland Route to China" is growing to be morn a matter of importance and interest to the British traveller than it used to be, and accordingly a full account of the district lying between India and China attract some readers, especially as the article before us contains some curious information. " The Wind among the Trees" is a slight but graceful paper, quoting the various impressions which the changeful voice of the wind has made on some of our principal poets and writers. " The Mail of Orleans" sup plies the subject for a biographical sketch. A tn:;morial essay of more recent date on " Henry Lord Brougham," comes from the pen of the veteran Cyrus Redding. The stories now in progress are " The Arliugtons," " The List Days of an Old Country House," and " Christine," all which pro. ceed as usual. " BENTLEY'S MISCELLANY. (Bentley, New Burling ton-street.)—The readers of this long-established CAMP LIFE AT WIMBLEDON. Writing on Sunday evening from the scene of the great rifle contests, the Daily Nom correspondent gives the follow , big interesting description of camp life :—" The contrast between the rough-and-ready out-of-door picnic life which :amp residence must under any circumstances be, and the luxuries with which the Wimbledon enclosure abounds, continues to be very striking. There are few things which cannot be bought here. Opera -glasses, armolu clocks, meat safes, dressing-cases, boots, shoes, easy chairs, rugs, carpets, cushions, scents, ails, pomades, hair brushes, fancy pipes, tobacco pouches, waterproof coats, hassocks, accordions, rings, pins, brooches, knives, are all to he had at the bazaars. These form a lane of tents by themselves, and their owners are busily unpacking and exposing their wares to tempt the passer-by. The bazaars at Cairo and other great emporiums in the East are Suggested by some of them. A French provincial fair, and sections of Tottenham-court-road on Saturday night, or of the Lowther Arcade at any time, are brought to mind by others. Piles of valuable merchandise of the most heterogeneous character lay massed together in apparently inextricable confusion on the grass. The dealers and their assistants are unpacking boxes, or nailing banners with their own names or those of their favourite wares outside their tent-stall. A little further on arc the huge cast-iron water-tanks ; and here volunteers and soldiers of the line are performing al fresco toilets, and gracefully refreshing each other by alternately turning taps upon' their heads. Water-dabblers, from the man washing and wringing out his well-worn pocket-handkerchief and socks to the one rinsing and filling a valuable silver cup, and the gallant .amateurs with barrels and carts, follow each other in rapid succession, or work side by side. The quartermaster's tent at the corner of the canvas lane leading towards the back of the common is very busy. The soldiers inside have books and plans of the camp, and the new comers crowd round the tent entrance to know the whereabouts of their sleeping-place. A card, a number, an interrogatory, and a reply, and the . sunburnt, dusty-looking volunteer, from Yorkshire or Cornwall, is sent on his way, number and ticket in hand, to his tent. The portions of the encampment for which the association is solely respon sible are kept in order by a large staff of commissionaires engaged for the purpose ; while the corps occupying what is termed the regimental camp make their own arrange ments for its cleanliness. All detachments finding their own camp equipage come under the latter category. Officers in uniform canter from one end of the camp to the other, stopping for a moment here, giving a word of admonition or encouragement there, and comporting themselves generally as men with much on their minds. Vehicles of all kinds are driving over the roads—extem pore and finished—of the enclosure. Aristocratic mail phaetons, with coronet on sides ; humble tradesmen's carts, drawn by frisky ponies which seem impudently anxious to try their speed against that of the superb cattle curvetting proudly in the front ; breaks, and drags, and flys, heavily laden with volunteers and their luggage from the stations of Putney and Wimbledon ; great family chariots from the banking glory of Roehampton, or from other of the many vast establishments near; visitors to the guardsmen and officers of the line and to the volunteers, idle sightseers, people eager to prosecute their various trades, and people with apparently no occupa tion under heaven save that of getting in the way, snake up an ever-moving, ever-changing crowd. The flowers and shrubs in pots and in improvised beds round the different tents and mess-rooms are being watered by men who, with a refreshing uncon sciousness of what the night will bring forth, are murmuring bitterly at the effects of the long•continued drought. The scene does not alter materially until after dark. A fresh breeze springs up about sun-clown, and the delicate pink of the sky is .accompanied by appearances more threatening ; but the least hint of rain is met derisively by people who declare they have been deceived into expecting it by precisely similar foreshadowings this month past." THE WEATHER. The long-continued drought has at last in 'the neigh bourhood of London been relieved by a thunderstorm and a copious downpour of rain. Throughout the whole of Saturday the weather was sultry, although there was an occasional breeze from the north-east. The wind at night changed to the south-west, and then the sky became overcast, and gave every indication of an approaching storm. Flashes of lightning were followed about half-past eleven o'clock by loud peals of thunder and a heavy shower. The storm continued for some hours, but it had ceased at daybreak, when the sky was again clear. There was a second shower about one o'clock on Sunday, which, however, lasted only a few minutes, after which the storm again seemed at an end. At sunset, how ever, the sky once more became overcast, and between nine and ten o'clock there was a return of the lightning, vith sight peals of thunder and rain, which continued to fall in heavy showers throughout the night. Early on Sunday morning a heavy thunderstorm broke over the Castle and town of Windsor. The lightning was incessant, and the heavy rolling of the thunder awoke most of the inhabitants from their sleep. The rain, too, poured clown in torrents, completely washing the struts and roads, and for the time flooding the gutters and water courses. While at its height, the storm was something fearful to contemplate. The heavy rain has laid much of the cereal crops in the district, and for the present put a stop to harvest operations, which had commenced earlier than usual. Rain fell in heavy showers throughout Sunday. One of the correspondents at Wimbledon writes from the camp on Sunday evening as follows :—" The heavy ' rains of last night and to-day have left but little trace upon Wimbledon Common. Here and there small pools .of stagnant water may be seen, but the broad ex pause is in the main dry. Thanks to the gravelly soil and the good drainage, the turf was firm and hard by this afternoon, and the strollers on it saw but little evidence of the merciless pelting deluge of a few hours before. It was very different in camp. Many of the occupants of the tents suffered severely in the night. Few among them had had the prudence to dig the necessary trenches round their bell-shaped summer-houses, and the result was that the camp was during the small hours of to-day a scene of considerable discomfort and hard work. To be roused from your first sleep by a torrent of water in your face or over your limbs, and to be morally certain that the said torrent will continue without inter mission for an hour or two, is a fact stern enough to rouse the most sluggish sleeper into energy. Accordingly the volunteers occupying the ordinary tents were at work soon after midnight with pick and spade, and a trench for receiving and carrying off the water now sur rounds nearly every tent. 'There were plenty of other evidences of the stormy weather the camp had gone through. Coats, mattresses, sheets, and blankets were all hanging out to dry, and many a volunteer showed by the soundness of his mid-day slumbers how arduous and ex hausting his night labours had been. The fortunate people who had boarded flooring to their tents— a not inconsiderable number—were in better case. The rain has had a bad effect upon the roads, which, having lost the dust of Saturday, are now ankle deep in the thick black sludge Crimean men associate with the name of Balaklava. One of the two tents belonging to Earl Spener, and pitched in front of the windmill cottage occupied by his lordship, was blown down in the night, and its d6bris lay helpless and forlorn upon the grass. We heard of no other casualty of importance, and the high spirits and unfailing jocularity of the volunteers we saw awake to-day shewed that this wetting had had no ill effect upon their spirits or their hopes." LIE PENSION TO SIR ROBERT NAPIER. —TIIO . amount of the pension to Sir Robert Napier has been criticised as being inadequate to sustain the dignity of a member of the House of Lords. There are, however, pre cedents for this grant of £2,000 a year. A like sum was awarded to Lord Gough for his services at the battles of Moodkee, Ferozeshah, and Sobraon ; and Lords Raglan and Seaton have now each a pension of 22,000 in consideration of the military services of their fathers. Lord Harding° was awarded £3,000 to be continued to his two successors in the title. But in comparison with the pensions granted to those who have served the State out of the army, these sums do not shew to advantage. An ex-Lord Chancellor gets .5,000; a retiring puisne judge £3,400, and an ex• Cabinet Minister, whether peer or commoner, £2,000. The abolished office of Auditor-General in Ireland has for years secured Lord Roden a pension of £2,700. These pensions, however, are for life only.—Daily News. SUNDAY 02ENING OF TUE CRYSTAL PALACE.- A contest on the Sunday opening of the Crystal Palace took place last week between the Woi king Men's Lord's Day Rest Association and the Sunday League, in conse quence of a proposal made at the last half-yearly meeting of the company, that each shareholder should have foui tickets for the admission to the Palace on certain Sundays of four friends free of charge. This proposal was carried at the meeting, and a ballot was demanded by the majority. On Monday the ballot took place at the Palace from eleven to eight o'clock. The number of votes was as follows :—ln favour of shareholders being allowed to take four friends to the Palace on Sundays free of charge, 5,217; against the proposal 23,423 votes. This decision confirms the ballot taken last December, when, by 20,087 votes against 4,853, the proprietors refused to admit on Sunday any persons except shareholders. The proposal to close the Palace against shareholders on Sundays re. caved 17.8a8 votes. but was opposed by 20.460. -F • t7lllll RER MAJESTY. OSBORNE, July 11.
