The settling on the Derby and Oaks, materially lightened by the large sums paid en Monday, was re sumed: yesterday afternoon, and is allowed to have been one of the best ever known. Of course, with so im mense a total as 200,0001., the amount supposed to have been won on the Derby, it was not to be expected that the whole would be forthcoming. On the day, the " carrying over" was to a much smaller extent than usual, and there is every reason to believe that the ultimate deficiency will be inconsider able. A few bets were laid, late in the afternoon, at the following prices:— THE EMPEROR'S PLATE. (fr.lV -6 to 4 agst Lord Exeter's Nutshell—taken 2tol at Mr. Mangan's Russberough—taken 5 to 1 agst Mr. F.

They've distanced all others that after them bled. And their good constitution for years have been tried. You may try all the tailors in town if you will, E. MOSES and SON will be favourites still.

Extensive Travelling Leave granted without extra Premium ` Moderate extra Premium for Residence in Tropical Climate*. EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,000/. (Incorporated under '1 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) • The leading principles of this Office ara—Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess: than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the' different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the, amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,; that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the; true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-• ranee Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap— goached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto , been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. • Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested iu this question, and will consult his interest by • supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to time, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-; ments as regards tariffis with other offices.

Nothing has yet transpired to enliven the position or prospects of this trede. Although the aggregate demand seems to be but slightlycliminished, orders are chiefly for light goods, and they are altogether inadequate to afford general employment; while, as usually happens under the influence of a downward tendency, business is being done with but little satisfaction to either buyer or seller. Common qualities of iron, rods and bars, are notori ously being sold at rates varying from ss. to 15s. per ton below the nominal prices, and other descriptions show a still wider range; sheets as far as 20s. to 255. In pig iron thene is an unusual variation of 20s. per ton between the extreree qualitieS; and generally a decided giving way in price :has taken place during the last month, The figures at which pigs are bought aro now mainly dependent upon the circumstances of the makers. The interests of South Staffordshire appear likely to be injuriously affected by the production of vast quantities of interior metal, while quality is altogether disregarded. In some instances every other considera tion has, been so far abandoned but that of cheapness, that pigs are now made and sold in this district scarcely realising the price of common brands in Glasgow, and certainly below them in value. The almost unanimous rejection of the free-trade proposition of M. de Sainte Beim; by the Commission of the French Na tional Assembly, a leading feature of which was the admission of iron at a trifling fixed duty, is not calculated to brighten the expectations of a vastly increasing market for our iron upon the continent. It not only abnfirms the retention of the present tariff in France, but the reasons adduced for rejecting the principle of unrestricted competition are of a nature to excite reflection in other States where the aboli tion of protective duties was obtaining more favour t h rou gh the efforts of our agents. The accounts from the United States also show that the present extent of, our exports can- only •be secured by adhering to a very low range of prices, and that no great increase of consumption can be looked for in that country. One of the worst sy m p toms of the present •depression is a reckless disposition to do business on any terms. In accepting contracts, profits seem to. form no part of the calculation, and of those . now in band very few will return a shadow of remuneration to the maker. A short time since it was announced, as a Matter of congratulation, that a large order for cast-iron pipes had been taken by a well known firm that would find employ ni6nt threnghout the summer fora vast num ber of hands; b u t, unfortunately, later information f rom s tates that the said hands are all" on throught an attempt to exc.ct from them more wages,—a step doubtless found re qubeei3s execution -- ution of this boasted order.Aris's the same forstrike," .e same' h 7/Z inghant Gazette. RALPH RUTHERFORD ; A NAUTICAL ROMANCE. BY THE AUTHOR OF "THE PETREL."—It is well for the numerous clam s of admirers of that charming species of fiction the sea novel, that a worthy successor has been found to the place left vacant by Captain Marryat. Admiral Fisher, who is understood to be the author of the present romance, pos sesses all that graphic power in the delineation of sea life in its varied' aspects . which constitutes one of the principal charms of Captain 111arryat's novels. The present story is well conceived. for its evident purpose, which is to guide a frank and honourable young man, full of kind and generous feeling, through all the perils of the deep, and through the many scrapes -which wait upon men of that cast of mind amidst the complicated duties and adventures of a seaman's life. Altogether the tale is exceedingly entertaining, and full of interest, which is well sustained to the last,—John , Bull. APPOINTNEZW. Master's Assistant—J. W.

By the last dates from Lisbon (19th May), it was not deemed likely that the squadron under the command of Commodore Martin would leave the Tagus for some time. We have already stated that the Indefatigable, 50, Captain Smart, had taken her departure for the Mediterranean station. She remains there instead of the Caledonia, now on her way home—ii, 50. gun frigate, with 500 men, relieving a three-decker, with 970 men. The squadron remaining under Commodore Martin is the Prince Regent, 90, Captain Harris, by tbis time carrying his red broad pendant; Phaeton, 50, Captain G. Elliot; Arethusa, 50', Captain Symonds; Leander, 50, Captain Dacres; Arrogant, 46, screw-frigate, Cap tain Robinson; Dauntless, 24 , screw-frigate, Captain Halsted; Encounter, 14, screw-corvette, Captain Gor don; and Janus, 2, steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander Powell. Dauntless returned to Lisbon from Oporto at midnight on the 13th, having made a remarkably short passage. Saldanha, it was thought, would have taken a passage in her, but she brought only Colonel Ximenea, Adju tant-General of Saldanha's army and staff. Encounter is at Oporto, but the Janus had arrived front Gibraltar to relieve her at that place. The unfortunate captain of marines who committed suicide at Lisbon was Captain Snow, of the Arethusa, and not of the Indefatigable. He shot himself in his cabin at four o'clock in the morning of the 15th. A pri vate note says:—" Poor Snow was a very worthy fel low, and his untimely end every one deplores. What led him to commit the rash act no person can divine." The French liec-of-battle ship (100 guns) Henri Quati e and a French steamer, together with a Spanish man-of-war steamer, were at Lisbon.

MANUFACTURE OF SPURIOUS TEA. At Clerkenwell Police Court on Monday, Edward South and Louisa his wife were placed at the bar before Mr. Combe, charged by Mr. Inspector Brennan, of the G division, with being concerned in the manufacture of spurious tea. It appeared from the statement of the inspector that in consequence of information that the prisoners and others were ins the habit of carrying on an extensive traffic in manufacturing spuriouS tea, on the premises si tuate at 27i, Clerkenwell close, Clerkenwell-green,, on Saturday evening, at about seven o'clock, the witness, in company with Sergeant Cole, proceeded to the house, where they found the priscners in an apartment busily engaged in the manufacture of spurious tea. There was an extensive furnace, before which was suspended an iron pan containing, sloe leaves and tea leaves, which they were in the practice of purchasing from coffe,eshop keepers, after being used. On searching the place they found an immense quantity of used tea leaves, bay leaves, an d every description of spurious ingredients for the pur po se of m anufacturing illicit tea, and they were mix ed with sol ution of gum and a quan tity of copperas. The heat of the place was so ex cessive that the officers could scarcely remain in it, but the prisoners did not seem at all oppressed by it. Tho wom an was em p lo y ed in stirring about the bay leaves and other com p ositions with the solution of gum in qn in o the pun, and in onus part of the r o om th ere was aut ity of spurious stuff, the exact imitation -dried tea leaves, bay leaves, and sloe leaves, of genuine tea. In a back room they found nearly 100113. all spread on the floor drying. The inspector told the prisoners that he was a police-officer, and also an inland ' revenue officer, and he must take them into custody, together with the whole of the ingredients and appara the spurious tea. Mr. Brennan added tus for making weight of re that the priso;ters had pursued their nefarious traffic most e nt. ieely, and were in the habit of dealing grocers, chandlers, and others, especially The various articles produced, prior to their compl for disposal, had the most disgusting an d were evidently prejudicial to health. lie had communica te dappeara nce ' with Dr. Bateman and the Ex cise authorities, who considered it a case of such iotalie largely coxicinth etion, im portancesry to the public that they requested the with drawal of the present charge in order that they might • prosecute the prisoners under the Excise laws, being de termined, if possible , to put a stop to such abominable proceedings. agnst them by the authori re discharg ai ed, and roceedings will The prisoners we Mr. 'Brennen was complimented by exertions. the Court for his b ti e eso immediately theE c sinstituted FATAL DUEL. --- The C olo --------- • terminating, on French soil, nne newspaper, p u bli s h e d London, landed from the s te amer a t at Boulogne, gives the following particulars of an affair which terminated fatally o n the evening,_of the 23d instant, about two miles from the town : —" On Wednesday last four i Boulogne s ' o r m en e c s h e n r e o nwu,siresidents theliti cianl t o ge taornel ich had arise n b e t ween two of them. On Friday afternoon the two parties set out for Pont-de-Briques, two travelling per train and two on foot. Arrived at the appointed place, they entered a warren in the commune of Condette. The adversaries were placed at a distance of 25 steps; at a given signal the two pistols were discharged, but without r esult. The seconds re-charged them, and the combatants approached five steps nearer. Again neither was struck. Instead of this contest termi nating in the ordinary manner, the pistols were charged a third time, and the principals brought to within only 15 steps of each other. This time one of the two fell, struck by a ball which *reed him through. The unhappy man never spoke a word. The two witnesses of the tragedy and the surviving principal immediately left the spot, and the second of the deceased went to Pont-de-Briques to seek a surgeon and inform the mayor of , - ;rhat had occurred. Those who, hearing of the catastrophe, were attracted to the spot, found the body lying on the back, the hands clasped and pressing the breast. The three survivors, fearing the consequence, returned to Boulogne with all speed, and embarked in the night. The deceased is said to have, borne the name of Petit, and to have acted as foreman to a London tailor." --- Two LIVES LOST.—Yesterday afternoon a number of lads were playing on a timber raft lyiug off Millbank, waiting for the tide, when 0113 of them slipped through the logs and disappeared. Two gentlemen who were passing witnessed the occurrence, and hastened to render assistance. It is supposed that, in his eagerness, the foremost gentleman did net take sufficient precaution, as the logs separated, and he fell in also. Every effort was used, but neither of the bodies was recovered. The sufferers were ascertained to be Mr. R. Attwood, of the Lower-marsh, Lambeth, and John Cliffe, son of Mr. Cliffe, comb-maker, Regent-street, Vaux hall-road. There are no less than nine iron steam vessels, varying in size and tonnage, now in course of construction at Birkenhead. One is a paddle steamer for the Russian Government, of about 400 tons.

The QUEEN'S new Government had assumed extra— ordinary powers to put down THOMAR'S law of the press. The Cortes would be dissolved, and a new election. take place as soon as a law could be framed by a Com— mittee named for that purpose. GERMANY. A letter from Nuremberg, 23d, in the Augsburg Gazette, says : Last evening public tranquillity was momentarily disturbed. It had been reported that some orphans had been carried away and placed in the hands of the priests of the mission. About a hundred men assembled, as— saulted a police -agent, and broke the windows of a house in which he took refuge. By the intervention bf the armed force order was promptly restored, and eight of the ringleaders arrested. The Prussian Gazelle of the 24th publishes a long article, showing that the statements recently pub lished by the democratic journals, for the purpose of exciting a belief that the meeting of the Sovereigns at Warsaw had for its object to devise plans for the, overthrow of liberal feelings in other countries, are entirely unfounded. The Breslau. Gazette, under date of Lemberg, 22d, says : "The Emperors of Russia and Austria will have an interview at Cracow. It has been considered as a point of etiquette that the Emperor of Russia should go to meet his ally, as the Emperor of Austria had been twice at Warsaw without seeing the Czar. His Majesty will i only remain one day at Cracow, and. will thence proceed to Ohnutz. It is expected that tho Czar will return to Warsaw on the lst June, but it is not yet known whether he will or will not visit Berlin. There is a talk of con voking at Vienna the chiefs of the Jewish inhabitants from all parts of the empire, in order to consult on the reforms which are required with regard to them. The Minister of Public Worship is, however, resolved to resist the attempts made by several religious sects, to do away with the Jewish religion altogether. It will be difficult to find among the Rabbis of Gallicia men pos sessing intelligence enough to effect the fundamental re generation of the state of the Jews in Gallicia. Dr. Ester, one of the most intelligent among them, has just died at Brody." The Austrian Minister of Commerce, M. DE BRUCK, who lately gave in his resignation, has been replaced by M. BAUMGARTNER. The Committee of the Chamber of Peers of Bava ria decided in a recent sitting in favour of the Bill on the civil rights of the Jews, and took into considera tion a proposition for doing away with the numerous police regulations which specially concern them. The Cologne Gazette states, from Berlin, that the Emperor of RUSSIA is to arrive at Olmutz, on the 29th, but that the report of its being the intention of the King of PRUSSIA to accompany him had not yet been confirmed. M. DB MANTEUFFEL, the President of tha Prussian Council of Ministers, and General DE Roc now, Minister cf Prussia to the Ger.nanio Diet, arrived at Warsaw on the 21st. BELGIUM. BRUSSELS, MAY 2G.—Nothing further is known in regard to the new Cabinet than that M. LEBEAU, who was summoned to the KING, save it as his opinion that it would be advisable to reinstate the Cabinet, and introduce aome modifications in the law on suc cession. The Chambers have adjourned for a week. HOLLAND. THE HAGUE, MAY 25.—The Ilandelsblad announces that the KING has consented to act as arbitrator be tween France and Spain for the differences relative to the seizure of some vessels in 1813. The Staats Courant publishes the report of the sections of the Second Chamber on the project of law regulations of Ministerial responsibility. It appears from the document that the sections are unanimous in declaring this project preferable to the one presented in 1849, on the same subject, because it confines itself to the crimes committed by a Minister in the exercise of his functions. _ . ... The majority is ready to adopt the project of law, saving some few changes in the details. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. Count I.3ILLE BRAIIE has proposed to the Assembly of Notables at Flensburg to adopt in tote, without discussion, the project of the Government, but the delegates of Denmark and of Schleswig have not agreed to the proposition. It is reported that they have resolved at a preliminary meeting to strike out those clauses of the project relating to the institutions common to the two duchies, and to propose an admi nistrative and politic separation between them. The Notables of Holstein, however, do not perfectly agree in the matter. The Government project, with the observations and additions of the Notables, will be examined by the superior authorities of the duchies and the kingdom, and will probably be submitted ultimately, with other additions and modifications, to the provincial states for final deliberation. It is evident this mode of proceeding will take up much time. Colonel HODGES, the British Minister at the llanse Towns, left Hamburgh for Flensburg on the 22d, having received orders from his Government to that effect. ITALY. SEVEN FLORENTINES PUNISHED FOR READING THE BIBLE. A letter from Florence of the 18th, in the RiSor giniento of Turin, gives some particulars about the arrest of Count GUICCIXRDINI and six of his friends, which was mentioned a few da y s ago. It appears that, on the arrival of the police, they were sitting round a table-reading a chapter of the Gospel ac cording to St. John. They were taken to prison, and examined by a magistrate on a charge of baying attempted to overthrow the religion of the State; but the results of this examination being entirely in their favour, the public prosecutor declared there were not sufficient grounds for continuing the prcceediegs. The correspondent adds that the police, in virtue of the discretionary power with which it is invested, has condemned Count GUICCIARDINI and his as sociates to six months exile in the province of Volterra. The Costitazionale of Florence of the 20;h pub lishes a decree of the Grand Duke of iuscAr.y, oovvering the municipality of Arezzo to effect, at its o wn risk and expense , the survey of__ a by rajlv,,Ty line f rom Florence to the Roman frontier r:-.)ntier Pontaeaiere, A re zzo, and Valdichiana. Timunicipality is to be responsible for all indemnities which might hereafter be claimed by the proprietors of the lands surveyed. The Government, on the otherhand, reserves to itself the right, not only of permitting lines, but also of adopting at the survey of other any time the line it may think proper, without an y obligation whatever of indemnifying the commune o f Arezzo for the expenses it may hare , ineurred..

Fiddle was produced here for the first time last evening, Madame Castellan sustaining the part of Leo nora, 'Tamberlik that of Florestan, Tagliafico that of Pizzaro, and, last and greatest of all, Formes that of Rocco. In the opera as represented at this theatre, the great character of the piece, around which all the others seem as it were to group themselves, is that of Rocco, as personated by Formes; whenever he was on the stage be seemed completely to fill it,and, by his magnificent voice and the energy and power of his acting, to draw atten tion exclusively to himself. His grand solo song, " Coi quattiern la contentezza," was magnificently given, and his duet with Pizzaro in the first act was superbly acted and sung. His makeup was admirable; his is indeed the Rocco of Beethoven. Madame Castellan gave a graceful sketch, or rather outline of Fidelio. She sang the music with great taste, but she lacks grasp to seize and force to delineate such a character as that of Leo nora; nevertheless, her performance was always grace ful, and in the prison scene exceedingly beautiful, and her singing of the grand air in the first act was finished. The Florestan of Tamberlik was very fine; his opening air in the prison scene was magnificently rendered and enthusiastically encored. His Feting in the dream was superb. Tagliafico acted and sang Pizarro with great care, and leis aid in the concerted pieces was invaluable. The little parts of Mercellina and Fritz were well sus tained by Mademoiselle Bertrandi and Signor Stegelli, who gave the lively duet with which the opera opens in an admirable manner. The choruses, with the single exception of the chorus of prisoners, were excellently given, and the orchestra was superb. Both overtures were given, that to Fidelio (which was encored) before the commencement of the opera, and that to Leonora between the acts. All the principal artistes engaged were called on at the conclusion of each act, and at the conclusion of the opera there was a unanimous call for Costa, who, on his appearance, was enthusiastically greeted. Her Majesty honoured the performances with her presence. The house was crowded in every part. WOOLWICH GARRISON, May 27. The whole of the troops in the garrison, with the ex ception of the Royal Marines, itstembled at nine o'clock A.M. to-day, in light marching order, and proceeded to the common, whore they were drawn up in line, the Horse Artillery on the right, under Lieutenant-Colonel Bell; the 17th Lancers, under Lieutenant-Colonel Law renson ; the right battalion of Foot Artillery, under Lieutenant-Colonel Williams; the centre under Lieute nant-Colonel Stowe; on the left of the centre battalion, Captain Haricon's company, with 12-pound field bat tery guns, each drawn by six horses, gunners dis mounted, and Captain Freese's nine-pounder field bat tory, each gun drawn by six horses, gunners dismounted; the left battalion, under Lieutenant-Colonel Thorndike; the Royal Sappers and Miners, under Captain Freeth ; the Woolwich and Deptford districts of Chelsea pen sioners, under Major Forbete and the light field batteries, under Lieutenant-Colonel Anderson, Field-Marshal the Marquis of Angleaey, ICG., G.C.8., G.C.H., arrived on the ground shortly after ten o'clock, iu plain clothes, accompanied by Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Downmau, C. 8., K.C.H., Major-General Sir Hew D. Ross, K.C.8.; Lieutenant-Colonel Brereton, C.D., K.H., Royal Horse Artillery; Brigade-Major Bing ham, and Captain Tyiden, Deputy-Assistant Quarter. master-General of Artillery, with a numerous staff. The Lieutenant-General, being in military uniform, rode forward to take the command of the whole of the troops, and was received with the usual salute, the bands play ing the National Anthem. The Master-General, with the Commandant and staff, then inspected the troops in line, and they afterwards broke into open columns to the right and marched past at slow time. The Royal Horse Artillery, the 17th Lancers, and the light field batteries subsequently passed at a trot; and the Royal Horse Artillery and 17th Lancers, after changing their front, passed—the former at full gallop, and the latter at a canter. The whole of the troops were then formed into divisions on the upper part of the common—four troops of Lancers on the right and two on the left of all the others, and 10 rounds of ammunition having been previ ously served out to each gun of the Royal Horse Artil lery and field batteries, 15 rounds to each of the Royal Sappers and Miners, and six rounds to each of the Foot Artillery and Chelsea Pensioners; the evolutions commenced by the advance of the Lancers from the right and left at a rapid pace across the common; when near the north side they accelerated their speed to a full gallop, making au imposing charge, in which they were eloiely followed by the Royal Horse Artillery at full gallop. On the Lauurs retiring to the right and left, the Royal Horse Artillery commenced firing. The Lan cers returned across the half of the distance across the common iu two squadrons, and then formed into three divisions, passing to tho rear, two troops on the right, two in the centre, and two on the left, closely followed by the Royal Horse Artillery; and the latter, on taking up their position, commenced firing again, which with continued by the battalions—the Royal Sappers and Miners and the Chelsea Pensioners—by a running fire and by the field batteries on the loft. After going through a number of other evolutions, which occupied the troops until nearly twelve o'clock, they again marched past at quick time and returned to barracks. The gen tlemen cadets subsequently attended mortar and howit zer practice at the battery at the west end of the paradA, ground, and the numerous spectators pr esent appea.re highly gratified with all that took piece on the occasion. The Marquis of Anglesey proceeded to the mes s • room and partook of a dejeriner with the officers. RAILWAY TRAF-I'lC kifIURN S. SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY....

F r o m the e vidence of Frederick Ellerby, and others of the crew , it appeared that in No and N a man No vember last the vessel left Liverpool for New York. Two days after she left the river, a " stowaway," that is a person who has contrived to get on board unobserved, with the object of being conveyed to America free, cam e on deck. He was miserably clad, and presented a most destitute appearance. The captain was very violent on discovering there was a " stowaway" on board, and soon after ordered him to work. He did everythiag he could to please, but on being ordered aloft he refused, as a landsman, upon which the captain beat him with a rope's end until he fell down on the deck. The two mates followed up the castigation. This cruelty was repeated almost every day until the 19th of December, when the man Pye' was ordered by Macanally, at four o'clock in the morning, to go to the pump. He complained that ho had been at work during the preceding watch, and was tired and cold, and asked to be allowed to go be low. Macanally, however, beat him with a rope to the pump, and while there struck him with the same in strument on his hand, which was • l (Tipp ed, until the blood flowed. The poor fellow cried out murder,and the bystanders to save him. No one interfered, and the unfortunate man ran down to the lee -quarter, exclaim ing he " would have revenge on the second-mate either dead or alive," and with these remarks he seized a rope, raised himself to the rail, and plunged into the sea. No attempt was made to save him. At Charleston the Bri tish consul was apprized of the affair, and he ad dressed a letter to the Liverpool magistrates, under whose directions Superintendent Clough inquired into the facts on the arrival here of the Arabia on the 10th instant, which led to the apprehension of the second mate on Friday in Ballast, and that of the captain on board his own vessel on Sunday last. Both prisoners were committed for trial at the next assizes. Bail will be accepted to the amount of 100/. each in sureties, and 200/. each in the prisoner's own recognizance. NATIONAL EDUCATION.--The cause of National Education has, this year, shared the fate of all other great measures. It has been neglected and shuffled over. Last night it was bucked for the session, after a tame debate in an indifferent House. The smallness of the number who divided in favour of Mr. Fox's measure is peculiarly dis cre3itable to the Liberal party. Only forty-one Members attended to record their votes for the cause for which they have so often pledged themselves to their constituents, and harangued applauding crowds. We do not say, " let not alr. Fox he discouraged;" he wants no encouragement of ours. We know that he, at least, has the spirit to fight an up-hill game, and that neither the bigoted zeal of hi s op ponents nor the chilling unsteadiness of his nominal adhe rents will make him waver. But it is out of the House that the work must be mainly done, and it Is out of the House that the work is being done. Associations and committees are being rapidly organized in the metropolis, and in all our large towns, to promote National Education. When the general election comes candidates must be taught unmis takably that this is a matter on which they must not only ta'k on the hustings, but vote in the House.

Another drama, signed with her illustrious name, has appeared at the Gait& Its title, Molicre, suggests a new sphere tor her artistic power; but the piece disappoints that expectation. Instead of an historical drama, we have the ideas and iluarrels of the day under the masks of historical personages ; and she has so completely falsified the real po sition of Moliere and the two Bej4rts, that one wonders why she did not take fictitious names for fictitious characters. One sentence in the critique on this play, by Hector Ber lioz, will probably amuse those readers who have heard George Sand always libelled as an immoral writer—it is the complaint that all the persons in this piece are so virtuous they become tiresome:—" Its sent bus ye, taeux et ennuyeux a faire frentir."— Leader. VIBANA.—The Secretary of Public Instruction, M. do Thun, has ordered than an especial department of arts should be constituted within the ressort of his Ministry, at the head of which is to be placed his brother, M. Franz de Thun, whose art-activity at Prague has been praiseworthy. The committee of the Academy of Arts is quite absorbed in remodelling its rules and regulations, and the preparatory and elementary schools have been already opened under teachers like Bahl, Geiger, &c. M. Bruck, Minister of Public Works, has proposed and obtained funds for the establish ment of a Commission des Monuments. The great monu mental riches of Austria and the other provinces have become most apparent by the fine exhibition of the architect M. L.
