The public has hailed that appoint ment not only as a well-deserved reward bestowed on a meritorious officer for his successful exertions in connexion with the organization of the Great Exhi bition, but as the earnest of an intention on the part of her MAJESTY'S Government not to suffer to pass unnoticed or unrewarded the men to whose zeal, assi duity, unflagging energy, and untiring exertions, the great success of the Exhibition is to be mainly attri buted. To Prince ALBERT is due the honour of having been the original propounder of the magni ficent, the sublime idea, of collecting under one roof the industrial products of every region of the world, of enabling men from every nation under heaven to inspect and study the works of the industry of every other nation, and by such inspection to compare their own products with those of other countries, and thus to correct, to improve, and to modify their modes of manufacture, so as to attain much nearer to perfection in the products of their own industry, than but for such an opportunity it would have been possible for them to have attained. But the victories of peace, resembling in this respect at least the victories of war, cannot be won by the general alone, he must have the assistance of a staff of able and zealous officers, and of an army of well-drilled and well-disciplined assistants, who not only tho roughly understand his plans, but are able and will ing to completely carry them out, or his finest ideas can never be realized, and his best laid plans will prove abortive. But for the assistance of an admirable staff, and of able and energetic assistants, the Great Exhi bition of the Industry of all Nations would never have achieved the perfect success which it has achieved, a success unparalleled in the history of any similar at tempt —a success unmarred by even the shadow of a failure in any even the smallest of its details. And this success has been achieved solely by the energy and perseverance of the men wbo undertook its orga niz ition in overcoming obstacles which to persons of less talent, of less zeal, of less faith in themselves, of less decision, would have been insuperable. Scarcely had the site been proposed, when the managers of the Exhibition were assailed by a storm of Parliamentary opposition that would have daunted any men of less firmness than themselves. Then arose pecuniary difficulties of no ordinary character. These were at once overcome by the liberality of some individuals among the Royal Commissioners, whose spirit of self-devotion on the occasion will not be soon forgotten by the public, nor, we trust, be suffered to pass unacknowledged. We pass over the difficulties which at one time threat ened to arise out of the choice between the various plans offered for the erection of the building, because from the moment that Mr. PAXTON'S pro posal for the erection of a Crystal Palace of Art was propounded it was universally accepted by public acclamation; on this point the Commissioners had in reality no choice left to them but to ratify the unani mous decision of the public. We cannot, however, but remember the prophecies of the croakers. A building of' glass—it will never stand, it must break down beneath the weight of the articles placed on the floors of the galleries—it cannot be made water-tight, all the goods in it will be spoiled by the wet—it will never be finished in time ;—such were a few of the vaticinations of those who were " Willing to wound and yet afraid to strike." Nevertheless, as time wore on these prophets found that the building of glass was finished in time, that it did not break down beneath the weight of the articles placed on its floors, that it was as water-tight as any ordinary building, and that the goods depo sited in it were not spoiled by wet. Then we Were told that it would be impossible to be ready to open the Exhibition by the Ist of May, and we believe that some even of the Commissioners themselves had serious doubts on this point, and would not unwillingly have consented to a postponement of the day of open ing. Had such postponement taken place it would have been on every account greatly regretted, the first act of the play would have been confessedly a failure, the prestige of the Exhibition would have been gone, and no after success could have compensated for such a misfortune. Thanks, however, to the almost super human exertions of Mr. THOMAS BELSHAW, and the other gentlemen to whom the internal arrangements of the Exhibitionwas confided, the morning of the Ist Of May found everything prepared, the pledge which the Commissioners had given, not only to their own SOVEREIGN but to the inhabitants of the world at large, was fully redeemed, and on the Ist of May, 1851, the Exhibition of the Industry of all Nations was opened by the RULER, of the British Empire. Since that period the career of the Exhibition has been one of uninterrupted success. Every day from 50,000 to 70,000 persons, and upwards, have been congregated together within the walls of the Crystal Palace ; men from all nations of the world have been here gathered tcgether, men whose Sovereigns tell us that in their own country the musket, the bayonet, the dungeon, the rack, the gallows, are necessary to keep them in order, whilst here a few policemen, " with bits of stick in their hands" (which bits of stick, be it remembered, they have never once had occasion to use), have been found amply sufficient for the preservation of the peace ; not a soldier has been seen within the precincts of the Crystal Palace, save as a visitor. The pilferings which have taken place have been as nothing, and in every inst ance the pilferer has been promptly taken into cust o d y , and as promptly puni s h e d ; w hil s t , not withstanding th e i a o r n t articles d s the exposu re of ea te lu nl ab il l t e at i n o out t o the ctrhyisetvael sPa lace,by and by the influx of strangers into the metropolis, the calendars of our criminal courts have never been so light. That great credit is due to the people themselves for these most gratif • yang results we in admitting, and we shall, whenever the glory People are libelled and called ugly names as an excuse for cluding them fr om our public and national b ex- uild ings and gardens, take care to remind their libellers of their conduct during the Great Exhibition; but great credit is also due to those who organized such an admirable system for the protection of the pro perty of the exhibitors, and for securing the comfort of the visitors as to render it unprofitable, if not impossible, for the professional thief to pursue his avocations within the pre cinc of the Crystal Palace, whilst, at the - same time, the perfect freedsm of action of the honest visitor was never once interfered with in the least. To all who were engaged in planning or carry ing out this admirable organization, from the 'hitched to the lowest, the gratitude of the country is especially due. We, in common with the public ge nerally, ben in the appointment of Colonel REID the earnest of a desire on the part of the Government to acknowledge and reward by a judicious use of their patronage the merits of those to whose exertions the unprecedented success of great e x perimen t is t o this be mainly attributed)whits, we trust, the Commis sioners will see the propriety of rewarding by a pe cuniary present, out cr their large surplus, the Lighly deserving but very ill.paid services of those who have been employed in an inferior capacity. It is not improbable that on some of those members of the Com mission whose position in life it such as to preclude the acceptance, on their part, of any office, some honorary distinction may be conferred ; we would most respectfully suggest that the ceremony of con ferring such distinction should take place in the Crystal Palace itself. In days of yore the knight who had distinguished himself in battle was dubbed knight-banneret upon the field; let Peace also have her knights bannerets. The question at issue between the Government and sundry boards of guardians in Ireland is creating in tense sensation in that country, and in truth it is one more worthy of notice than the fantastic tricks of the Defence Association, or the ground and lofty tumblings of" PAUL, Archbishop of Armagh, and Pri mate of all Ireland," or of his worthy colleague, " the Lion of the tribe of Judah," who rejoices in affixing his signature to sundry documents under the name, style, and denomination of " JonN, Archbishop of Tuam." A large sum of money—no less than 4,000,0001. sterling—is involved in the decision that may be arrived at, and there is at stake something even more important than mere pecuniary considera tions, viz., the integrity and good faith of a portion of the inhabitants of the United Kingdom. We ' would not see any of our Irish brethren classed among the repudiators whose names are held up as scandals and reproaches, which stink in the nostril s of every civilised nation. We would not see them associated with the drab coats and broad brims of Pennsylvania, or the cloaks and sombreros of the Spa nish hidalgos; and yet a further exhibition of wrong headedness on their part may array them with the very worst of those who have already acquired an infamous notoriety. Every allowance is to be made for those who, with the inclination, are yet utterly unable to satisfy the liabilities for which they are responsible. No reason able indulgence that can be demanded should be re fused to such persons ; but there are sturdy debtors who set their creditors at defiance—who dare them to do their very utmost, who must be dealt with in a very different manner. The man " who can pay and wont pay, must be made to pay;" and there could not be a more injurious precedent to establish, or one fraught with more dangerous consequences to the community, than that of per mitting an audacious defiance of the law—a clearly expressed resolution to resist its enforcemont in every possible manner—to have any effect on the minds of those charged with the duty of seeing it carried into execution, at least any effect beneficial to those as suming a position in every respect so improper and indefensible. The Queen's General could not treat with armed rebels. The show of resistance should be abolished before any negotiations could be entered into. In like manner, the QUEEN'S Minister cannot listen to the remonstrances of those who, while hold ing official rank and station, refuse obedience to the existing law of the land. The poor-law guardians of the county Mayo have had the rather doubtful honour of " taking the bull by the horns," and the remonstrance addressed through the chairman of a meeting of the guardians of various unions in that county to the First Lord of the Treasury, has elicited a reply, in which the arguments put forward are disposed of in a very summary, and at the same a very masterly manner- We take it for granted that his Lordship intends that his letter shall be received as a general answer to all who have made similar communications ; for we find that the only response given to the resolutions of the Clare boards was a mere acknowledgment of their receipt, without any observations thereon. It is, in deed, amply sufficient for that purpose, for the prin ciples recognised by the Government are clearly and distinctly laid down, so that there can be no possibility of misconception or mistake. After declaring that " the Government is at all times ready to consider applications for post ponement of payment, founded upon grounds which the Treasury can fairly entertain," the PREMIER pro ceeds to show what it is that the Mayo guardians are really endeavouring to effect, "seeming to consider that it is for them to decide what Acta of Parliament should be obeyed and which should be disobeyed—what the Legislature ought to have done, and what it ought not to have done," and upon such opinions declaring their determination to resist the execution of the law. He then, without condescending to notice the parti cular mis-statements on which the resolutions were founded, brit fly recapitulates the circumstances under which the debt was contracted—the total failure of the potato crop—the liberal assistance of the English nation, afforded without any hesitation as to the causes which, if they did not produce, at least rendered the effects of the calamity a thousand times more formidable than they would otherwise have been. That assistance was rendered not only by public loans, but also by voluntary subscriptions, in which 'the enormous sum of HALF A MILLION OF POUNDS STERLING was raised for the relief of Irish distress ; while 8,000,0001. was advanced by the Imperial Parliament for the like purpose. At the time when this latter sum—about one-sixth of the net revenue of the kingdom —was voted, it was distinctly under stood that the entire amount was accepted as a loan, to be subsequently repaid to the Treasury. A more liberal view of the transaction was subsequently taken ; one-half the debt was remitted. The sponge was applied to 10s. in the pound, at the suggestion of the creditor, and for that which was to be satisfied the utmost indulgence was afforded, as much as forty years being given in some instances. The local boards, by whom the debt was contracted, being dis solved with the circumstances that led to their existence, the duty of collecting the necessary funds for meeting the instalments was transferred to the poor-law guardians in the various districts. These gentlemen, in Mayo, Clare, and other localities, have refused to strike the rates for the repayment of any portion of the liability, while Lord JOHN RUSSELL has clearly pointed out the course which the Execu tive have determined to pursue. The Ministerial policy is clearly indicated in the following paragraph from his Lordship : "In particular districts the pressure of poor-law re lief is so great that some postponements of immediate payment to Government may be fair and equitable; but it is impossible for the Treasury, even in the interest of Ireland, to sanction the doctrine that every loan math for public purposes is to be subject to repudiation, ac cording to the will of the local bodies who may be charged with the collection of the sum to be repaid. It is obvious that among other evil consequences of allowing such a doctrine to prevail, would be this —that the House of Commons would never sanction another loan for Irish purposes , how ever c l ear the public advantage to be gained by such expenditure. " I request your Lordship to submit these considera tions to the board of guardians over which you preside. Upon other grounds they may have a case deserving attention." It should be maturely considered by the different boards, before they decide upon a fruitless and un availing opposition to the law. By so doing, and letting their passions be kept under the control of their reason and judgment, they will save themselves and their respective constituencies enormous expense, annoyance, and inconvenience. Let them be well aware that rebellious boards can be dissolved, and vice-guardians appointed in their place, who will strike any and , every rate that may be required, or that even, if such a step should not be resorted to, a mandamus from the Court of Queen's Bench would compel obedience ; and that when the rate is once made there are many efficient modes of enforcing payment. Let them once see the folly and absurdity of entering on a hopeless contest. Let them appeal ad misericordiam, and not in terrorem, and if there be any foundation for their petitions, they will find that every reasonable indulgence w ill b e f ree l y and willingly accorded. ~... --- TH E (4'.INIS COLLEGE, BIRMINGHAM.—W E learn that the Queen has been graciously pleased to present to this instituto a full-length portrait of her Majesty, to be placed in thinen College•hall A public meeting will be held on Monday, the l;th, in the Town-hall, which has been handsomely granted for the tcea,•ion by the Mayor, to at , knowledge in suitable terms this special mark of Royal favour conferred on the town and county.

The Ahbar of Algiers gives an account of a san guinary catastrophe which has taken place at Gue rara, in the central Sahara of Africa. The town was occupied by the tribes of the Oulad 1331a1 and the Oulad Alahoum. They had a quarrel, and many of the latter tribe were driven away. They came to an understanding with the Arabs of the Mkhalif el Djereub, Oulad Yabia, Chaamba, &c., who are ene mies of the Oulad Alahoum, and marched with theta in two bodies on the town. One made a pretended attack on the town for the purpose of drawing out the active population ; the other penetrated into the place and massacred every one they met.

On Sunday night Prince FREDERICK WILLIAM CHARLES of Prussia died at his residence at the Royal Palace, Berlin. He was the brother of the late Monarch,: FREDERICK WILLIAM 111., and uncle of the present KING. Though sudden at last, the death of the Prince was not unexpected. He had preserved the robust health whi c h most of the family enjoy till within the last t wo years. I n M a r c h l a st he was seized with pains in the chest, which at his advanced age were dangerous, and he himself entertained no hope of recovery. The complaint yielded a little to medical treatment, and he was able to be removed to Homburg to drink the waters of the Marienbad. He had but just returned from that place, and intended to go to Italy for the winter. A few days ago he had a renewed attack of the disease of the chest, but it did not confine him to his bed; he dined on Sunday as usual with his son, Prince ADALBERT, and the adjutant on duty; towards even ing he felt more unwell, and retired to bed at nine o'clock. At eleven he was seized with a fit, from which he never recovered, dying a few minutes be fore midnight. The late Prince was the youngest legitimate son of FREDERICK WILLIAM the Second. He was bore at Potsdam on the 3,1 of July, 1783, and married in 1804 the Princess MARIE ANNE of Hesse Homburg. He served actively in the army during the war with France, that terminated so disastrously at the battle of Jena. In the action of Auerstadt, which preceded that battle, the Prince led an attack of cavalry, and had his horse killed under him. In 1808 he under took a mission to Paris, to endeavour to procure from NAPOLEON some diminution of the heavy bur dens he had imposed on Prussia by the terms of the treaty of Tilsit. What he saw of the French Go vernment of this period led him to look forward with hope for the time when the Prussian people themselves would rise against the Imperial yoke. The fatal Rus sian campain of 1812 gave the signal—Austria, Russia, and Prussia formed an alliance. The Prussian popu lation, at the appeal of FREDERICK WILLIAM rose enthusiastically. The struggle lasted through 1813 and 1814, and closed with the destruction of the French empire by the battle of Waterloo. In these campaigns Prince WILLIAM was present at the battles of Katzbach and Leipsic. In the action of Gross- Gorachen, which checked the advance of a French corps on Berlin itself, while NAPOLEON commanded at Dresden, the Prince, at the head of the Branden burg Cuirassiers, repulsed a French detachment and again had a horse shot under him. He afterwards commanded a brigade, then a division under Marshal YORK, and was present at the battle of Laon during the advance of the Allies on Paris, and the last con flict before the French capital. At Waterloo he com manded the reserve cavalry of the 4th corps of the Prus sians. During the long period of peace that follotved 1815 Prince WILLIAM was three times Commandant of the fortress of May ence ; in 1830, he was Governor- General of the Rhine provinces. In 1846 he became a widower, and in 1849 lost his son, Prince WALDE. mex, who during his travels in India, was present at the operations against the Seikhs, under Sir H. HAR DING E. He leaves one son and two daughters, Prince ADALBERT, MARIE, Queen of Bavaria, a n d E LIZA . BET H, married to Prince CHARLES of Hesse. HOLLAND. We learn from Dutch papers of the 30th ult. that in the sitting of the Second Chamber several projects of law which bad been postponed from last session were brought forward :- 1. On military punishments. 2. Prison employment. 3. The erection of several public works. The project under immediate debate relative to pensions in the army and navy was passed unani mously, without a division. Several changes in the new electoral law were also discussed. The budget contains the following items, in ad dition to those already enumerated :—Religious affairs (Roman Catholic division), 554,345,65/fl. ; the navy, 5,475,313,3311. ; National Debt Liquidation Fund, 36,162,487,89f1..; Finance Department, 6,278,186, 60 f1.; War Department, 10,400,000f1 ; the colonies, 117,885,40f1.

Extract of letter dated Corfu, 20th of September, 851 : "The Medusa which arrived on Tuesday from the lonian Islands brought a ccounts o f a most di stress i ng accident which occurred very lately at Z tote. A. small house, on the ground floor o f w hi c h was a s h o p k e pt by a Greek, accidentally caught fire. The major of the 41st Regiment turned out im me di a t e ly w ith a party of his soldiers to aid in extinguishing it. The townspeople also flocked to the place in great numbers to render what assistance they could. But before the fire could be extinguished it had reached the second story, and all of a sudden a most awful explosion ensued. It appeara that two barrel s o f gun p o wder had beenim prudently concealed in a closet adjoining one of the rooms in the second story. At the very moment of the explosion several persons were on the roof of the house, and the result can easily be imagined. Eleven men perished at once—and among these a drummer of the 41st Regiment. The major of the same corps we, severely wounded, and equally so were no less than . 150 of the inhabitants. It is feared that several of the wounded will lose their lives. We have not been able to ascertain what became of the owner of the building; he may have perished under the ruins, but it he can be laid hold of h e w ill s oo n be brought to a very severe account for his f o lly, carelessness, and for breaking the law, which ju s tly a nd s trictly forbids any one from keep ing in a dwelling within the town at one time more than three pounds weight of powder. This sad accident had nat urally thrown a deep gloom over all the residents in Zante." EGYPT' ALEXANDRIA, SarT. 2 2 . —Th e H o n.

The Sublim e Porte' and ABBAS PASHA have not yet come to an understanding with respect to the ri g ht of the f ormer to impose on Egypt its obnoxious tan zimat, an d thus qualify the authority of the Viceroy. KHAIR. FD .D EEN PASHA, one of the delegates of th e Viceroy to C onstantinople, returned here some days ago, and there have since been several councils con vened at Cairo, and the European consuls have also been called into conference, but nothing has as yet transpired to alter the determination of ABBAS PASHA to resist the encroachments of the SULTAN.

TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 5.000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export. The sales include 4,000 American, 200 Egyptian, at 61d. to 9d; 250 Surat, at 24d. to 4d.; •and 40 Sea Islands at ls. to ls. 4d. per lb. The market closed steadily.—'The Share Market was quiet. The six weeks' average prico of wheat is 38s. sd. per quarter. The steamer Franklin has arrived with accounts o f the 20th ult. from New York. The rate of exchange on London was 101 to 10} premium, and there have been 800,000 dollars in specie landed from the vessel. More is advised &so as being about to come by other steamers, and the Californian news is still most encou raging, further gold discoveries having been made. The letters by the Overland Mail, vid Marseilles, have been delivered. The weather had been unfavourable for the Indigo crop in the Ben gal province up to the 20th of August, but our accounts dated September 1, from Bombay, no tice an abundant fall of rain, and very cheering agricul tural prospects. The Money market was extremely easy, and the Bombay banks had lowered their terms 1 per cent. In imports a much better business was doing, and as the monsoon had proved satisfactory, it was expected there would be a large consumption of cotton piece goods at the currant low rates, holders having wisely pushed sales owing to the fall in the raw material. The Amsterdam Stock Market on the 30th ult. was buoyant. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 58 5-16; Mexican and Spanish were higher. The firm to which we alluded yesterday is Ezponda, Corredor and Co. Their losses have arisen upon lead imports, and their connexion is chiefly with Spain. It appears there is some hope of arrangements for resump tion ere long. A Swedish loan of about 300,0001. is announced, but it is not on Government account, being for land improve ments. In all probability nearly the whole will be taken at Humburgb. The English Stock Market is exceedingly quiet. Con sols have been 96i to for Transfer, and 9611 -1 for Ac count. The premium on Exchequer-bills continues at 435. to 465. The Paris Bourse was depressed again yesterday. In Foieign Stocks very little is doing. Mexican Bonds are 27 to Spanish Five per Cents. nominally 20i to 21, and the Passive 5i to Portuguese Four per Cents. aro 32g. Belgian and Dutch Securities are steady. In a circular upon railway matters, forwarded by J. S. Tripp and Co., we find some useful comparisons of prices, traffic, &c., and as the public need an occasional reminder to be disabused of false impressions, we col late some of them:— Prices Sept. 30. 1850. 1851.

The Midland has suffvi ed by its competition with the Great Northern, but it has better prospects before it. As to the future of railways in general, admitting that the present enormous in crease of traffic will not be maintained after the Exhibition close-, there are very good grounds for the presumption that the travelling will be above that of the corresponding period of 1850; and even if this result does not ensue in the case of par ticular lines, the market prices are regulated in most instances by that consideration, buyers being much more cautious than they used to be, and much more discrimi nating too. From March till the commencement of last month, prices have steadily declined, and though they have rallied since, they are 10 to 20 per cent. lower than when the fall began. The " calls" upon railways have not been above half what they were to this time last year, and have barely exceeded three-quarters of a million sterling on foreign line. The Share Market opened well this morning upon the good traffic returns, but bas gone rather flatter since. There is, however, a fair business; Chester and Holy bead have been very buoyant. Foreign Shares are brisker.
