London is an attraction in itself, and needs not the adjunct of any minor feature to render it worthy of a frequent visit. But never was the metropolis, since its existence, so full of at tractions as now. The Great Exhibition, that star of attraction, wit i nurneroUS satellites, has provided the sight-seer, the pl ea . sure h -s ts eeker, and the lover of a rt and science, with a feast never be fore equalled. In every direction are attractions held out ; and the resident, as well as the visitor, is left in perplexity as to which attraction he should patronize first, atter visiting the Palace in the Park. Added to the attractions alluded to are those of trade in general, and those of HYAM and CO. in particular. HYAM and CO. have a Grand Exposition of their own, which, although not superintended by a " Royal Commission," or an" Exe cutive Committee," has attractions which well deserve the patronage of all who appreciate the advantages of fashionable, durable, novel, and cheap articles of dress. The attractions at lIYAM and CO.'s Establishments, 86, Oxford street, and 3t, Gracechurch-street, are of no common order;. but display a Peculiarity and excellence far surpassing those in other directions of the trade. Knowing that much woul I be looked for, HYAM and CO. have prepared much, and hence that amount of support which they in creasingly experience, and for which they feel so grateful to their numerous and various supporters. The Summer Stock of lIYAM and CO. consists of many new styles, not only in material, but in design and general finish. The elegant and easy fitting lounging „ Jackets, the graceful Paletots, are all new, or re -designed for the season, and canno t f a i l t o b e classed among the attractions of London. The Stock of HYAM and CO., as a is undoubtedly one of the highest description ; and the fact that cheapness le is the founda tion-atone of the proprietors' system, it is hoped, secure for HYAM and CO. a large share of pteumb sown of extraordinary attractions. c notice and patronage in this bis Drt of tics if st tit iIYAM and Co., Tailors, Clothiers, and Manufacturers.

Early yesterday morning the Commissioners of the City Police received instructions from the legal officers of the Corporation to take possession of the ruins, and the remaining standing portion of Messrs. Bell and Cur bet's premises in Gracechurch-street, until they had undergone thorough inspection by surveyors and other competent persons appointed for the purpose. This order was immediately carried into effect. A body of constables cleared every person off the property; all access to it was closed, and no one was permitted beyond the barriers under any circumstances, except those in structed to inquire into the cau se of the accident. At three o'clock in the afternoon the inquiry com menced. There were present Mr. Alderman Lawrence, a builder; Mr. Cubitt, M.P., the newly el e ct e d a ld erman for Langbourne Ward; Mr. Montague, the City sur veyor; Mr. Woodthorpe, Mr. Stephens, the district sur veyor; Mr. Tress, and several others. There were also present Mr. Bell, of Pope's Head-alley, one of the proprietors of the property ; his assistant architect; and the superintendent of the works. From a plan of the various floors and the works in general much information was gleaned regarding the true de scription and character of the building. As the public are cognizant of the magnitude of the erection, it is ne cessary to state that there was not a wooden beam in the whole structure. Each of the 140 apartments in the place was made fireproof, the flooring and ceiling being composed of twelve inches work of solid cement. These were supported by iron joists, or girders, each 16 feet long, and nearly 40 cwt. in weight. There could not have been less than 3,000 of them, besides other girders of almost three times their weight, imbedded in the walls, on which the smaller were tied or secured. These large beams were " locked" to the main walls by bolts running through and rivetted on the outer side. Con sequently, the whole fabric may be said to have been tied together like a spider's cobweb. Many expressed surprise that the entire place was not dragged to the ground, but the only portion that fell was the centre (about fifty feet by forty);, the frontage in Gracechurch street, and the portion abutting on Ball's-court, Lein bard-street, remaining entire. The frontage has not bulged out as represented; the surveyors, it is said, con sider it perfectly safe. Along the whole length of the four floors ran passages, the doors to the chambers being on each side of them. These were gained by two flights of stairs, one about the centre of ithe building, and the other at the western extremity. It was in the centre one where the mischief com menced. Here were four immense girders, each two tons weight, nearly twenty fest long, fixed across the staircase, opening on a well-hole, on each of the four floors, the ends bearing in the walls, and lockei to the longitudinal girders. They were intended to support the stone steps and part of the flooring of the passages; but this part of the work had not been commenced. Tee one that broke, and produced the fearful cansequences so much lamented, was the uppermost on the fourth floor. It had been fixed some days, and the walls had been carried up to tho height required to receive the roof. According to Mr. Bell's statement to the City surveyors he saw it perfect on Saturday morning, when he went over the works with Mr. King, the superin tendent, and found everything apparently safe and pro gressing to his satisfaction. An attempt was made to discover the cause of the girder breaking. This was found impracticable, as the broken fragments lay embedded in the ruins. The people employed on the works say they are confluent there was no weight on the girder to cause it to break, and express an opinion that it must have arisen from a flew in the casting. It seems that Messrs. Bell and Corbet possess certificates, showing that the whole of the iron joists and girders employed in the building were properlei tested and warranted. - At Clate hour the surveyors retired from the ruins to, es we understood, draw up a report to present at the coroner's inquest, which is fixed for ten o'clock this day (Teesday) at the London Tavern. We are desired to contradict the statement made in yesterday's paper, of two more bodies having been dug out of the ruins, after the finding of the remains of Matthew Cromer. Such is not the case. Another death, however, was announced to the police authorities yes terday. It was that of a labourer named Timothy Donohoe, aged 42. He was supposed by his comrades not to have been on the building at the time of the acci dent, but it appears he was on the top, and was one of the unfortunate creatures who wore precipitated to the ground with the walls and floor when they fell. He was got out by some strangers, and taken to 6t. .Bartho lomew's Hospital, where he died almost immediately. The other sufferers (four in number dead) are Martin Cromer, James Horrogan, Matthew Cromer, and Joseph Hanky. Those lying at St. Thomas's Hospital, with the ex ception of ono, Timothy Sullivan (whose case is pro nounced by the medical officers hopeless) are going on favourably. Most of them were married, and their families are in want of relief.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.) The leading principles cf this Office ara—Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements cn which to proportion rrernium 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 bean 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 anomfily should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted at, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the .boims 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 in 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 tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Claus.

The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication:— During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 2501.—making together 7007., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the let of June, 1549, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve mouths preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3e. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the let of June last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 125 6d., pro clueing in annual premiums 3,7321. 11s. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,991/. Iss. 11d. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. I Is. 10c1. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur de I'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prospects.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. THE EAST INDIA AND CHINA STATIONS. The Commander-in-Chief, Rear-Admiral Austen, C. 8., in his flag-ship Hastings, 72, Captain Austen, in tow of the Sphynx, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Shad well, arrived at Trincomalee on the Bth of April. The Commodore, Captain Lambert, in the Fox, 42, arrived at Trincomalee on the 9th April. Salamander, 6, steam-sloop, Commander El!man, ar rived at Trincomalee on the 2d April, from Moulmein. Reynard, 12, screw-sloop, Commander Cracroft, tied Lily, 12, Commander Barker, were daily expected. The above ships were ordered to assemble at Moul mein for the purpose of forming a court-martial to in quire into certain charges against Captain Baker, for having, in his passage from Portsmouth to the station, turned some naval apprentices ashore at Ascension. Sphynx had been engaged in conveying two com panies of the 37th Regiment, with some men of the Royal Artillery and gun-lascars, to Colombo from Trinco malee; taking back two companies of the 15th, some of the Ceylon Rifles to reinforce the. detachment there, and some of the Royal Artillery at the latter place.

The Governor of Malta took his departure under sa lutes and manned yarch., in the Merlin steam-packet, on the 13th, en ionic to argland, viii Marseilles. The public funeral of the late Captain Knox, of the Firebrand steam-frigate, took place at Malta en the even ing of the 2d inst. A court of inquiry has lately taken place on Loird the Albion, 90, Captain Hope Johnstone, on Mr. Fraser, a midshipman, who hat committed an assault on Mr. Bulgin, a clerk of the Ganges, 34, Captain Smith, C. 13., a few evenings previous. The captains of the Albion and the Ganges formed the court. On their report the young gentleman was directed to make a public apology to Mr. Bulgin on board the Ganges before the officers of that ship, six gentlemen of the gun-room of the Albion, two lieutenants, and the commander. Owing, however, to the posture Mr. Fraser assumed, Captain Smith felt compelled to decline accepting the apology, feeling himself treated with contempt. Mr. Fraser was sent back to his ship, and a farther report made to the admiral. Caledonia, 120, Captain Cartor, left Malta on the sth instant for England. She was accompanied by the Fire brand steam•frigate, Captain Codd, which had instruc tions to proceed in company to the south-west of Sar dinia, in order to assist her by towing or otherwise, as might be necessary. On the following morning the Porcupine steam-vessel, commanded by Lieutenant Bacon, of the Caledonia, and manned by part of her crew, left Malta for Gibraltar and England, where she will be paid off. MISS CATHERINE HAYES'S CONCERT AT THE HANOVER-SQUARE ROOMS. Yesterday morning Miss Catherine Hayes, the English prima donna assoluta, who is, we are sorry to say, about to leave our shores for America, gave a grand, and we fear we must add a farewell, concert at the Hanover square Rooms. The audience was one cf the most crowded and most brilliant ever assembled within these walls, and the reception of the fair bencficiaire was most enthusiastic. Never have we seen Miss Catherine Hayes look better, never have we heard her sing more deliciously than she did yesterday. Her voice seems to have acquired greatly increased power since last season, and her rendering of the " Ah mon fils," from the Prophete, was a miracle of ex quisite musical expression; her lower tones were exceed ingly rich, and told with immense effsct in this splendid cavatina. But the great triumph of the concert was the " Caste Diva," from Norma. Never have we heard Miss Catherine Hayes sing more exquisitely; never have we heard this chef Iceuvre of Bellini more perfectly ren dered. She gave the slow movement with immense ex pression, dignity, and pathos; and her execution of the cabaletta was the very perfection of florid vocalization; her fioriture was wonderful alike for its taste and its execution. The ap plause at the conclusion was rapturously enthusiastic. Beautifully did she give the exquisite duet, "Da quel di," from Linda, with Herr Reichert, and Mori's new ballad, "Come, where sweet-toned Zephyrs," was quite made by the delicious vocalization of Miss Catherine Hayes. It must be a fortune to a young composer to have his pro ductions so introduced to the public. This concert is also worthy of note, as having introduced to the musical public Mr. Augustus Braham, the youngest son of the great tenor. Mr. Augustus Braham's voice is a light tenor of great svi eetness, flexibility, and ex p res sion, and of considerable power also. Ho sang tbe " Tutto sciolto from the S onnam b u l a with great I ex p res sion, and afterwards gave a Scotch ad very I tastefully. We are inclined to - prognosticate a brilliapt [ ca reer for Mr. Augustus Braham.

JERnow's Time Works Wonders. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN Sre.,—A great many of the " early birds" were out with the lark this morning on the Downs, to watch the movements of the numerous horses out at exercise, my correspondent among the number, which enables me (as I can rely upon his judgment and eyes as well as my own) to l a y b e f ore you t h e f o ll ow i ng , i n so me instances, no doubt, startling facts. Among the earliest horses out was the quondam crack, the Prime Minister, who, in the company o f th e Si ster to W anots , too k a rattling gallop. He looked uncommonly well; was, as has been before remarked, rather fleshy; has not grown much since last year; is a low horse, possessing large strong quarter; stands about 15 hands 2i inehes, and is very muscular. He is a quick starter, but very fidgetty. It is asserted that he cannot stay the distance: I have some doubts on the point, but still think he is good enough to Leone of thefirst three, if not the absolute winner. Aaron Smith, from the same stable; looked much improved upon his Warwick form. The Marlborough Buck and Eloot at tracted a good deal of attention ; the former was much admired, he took a strong gallop ; the latter had a gentle canter and disappeared. Hernandez was not thought much of; he, however, is the picture of perfection so far as condition is concerned. Buckhound makes the run ning for him. Brother to Chanticl eer i s a strong, cora• pact, importation from the sister isl e; h e too k strong ex ercise, and pulled up fr es h. L or d Eglinton ' s couple were out some time, both took a stiff spin, and looked p ar ticularly blooming ; neithe r w ill w i n t h e D er b y. Heart breaker's style of mountin g t h e Lill was cap i tal; he'll run forwa ird n the race. Guy Mannering ana Pay ment were also out, the lat ter , r e p or t e d to have broken down, took gentle exerc is e, and may yet convince her opponents in the ring that hor chance on Friday is no hoar. Il esse Homb urg looked and went well, ei aid Catalpa, Lainartine, Louis Napoleon, Midas, Runnymede, Narcissus, .Bucktborne, i anti the Black Docter. The course , notwithstandin g the numerous showers that fell yesterday , s rather hard than otherwise. The field for the great event of to morrow, will be composed, as near as I earl possibly tell at the present moment, of the following : —Th e Prime Minister, The Marlborough Buck (Whitehouse), Ilernandtz (Nat), Teddington (Matson), Heartbreaker (Butler or Bartholomew), Theseus (S. Rogers), Lamar. t'ne, Mountain Deer (A. Day), Neasham (Holm es), , Midas (Norman), Co ns tellation (Templem? , e). Wen hae k (Dackeray) '.. P .elet:cop2 (Sly), Bonnie Dundee (Sharp). Amato, The Ban (Pearl), The Tout, Guy M*ntrering (probably - - Barthalomew);---HProlYtus (Marlow) £lOl5 Napoleon (Prince), Newmitiater. Hun et:erford (Fenn), `rho Black Doctor (Osborne), Runny mede, cult by Tearaway (Simpson), Bro to Chanti cleer, colt by Epirus , Azeth, Serus, England's Glory (Wintringham), ,Buckhound (Kitchener), and Black Douglass. My final opinieus on the foregoing are as follows:--Buckhound, England's Glory, Serus, Azeth, colts by Epirus and Tearaway; Runny mede, The Black , Doctor, Ilungerfora, Newminscir, Louis Napoleon, Guy Mannering, The Tout, The Ban, Ai iosto, T e l esco p e an d Gl enhawk, I find by my accounts from Epsom and Leatherhead this morning, are, one and all, to be turned into the hopeless class; NOT ONE OF THEM POSSESSING THE GHOST OF A CHANCE ( F WINNING ! Midas, Constellation, Neasham, Moun tain Deer, Hyppolytus, Bo nnie Dundee, an d T heseus, will form the foremost portion of the ruck; NOT ONE OP THIS SECOND LOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH TO WIN ! " Oh ! who can count—not Pindar's self— The names now put upon the shelt ? Oh! who can count the trembling hopes IVhen Epsom all its glories open?" Now for the first flight; it will, I fancy, consist of the Premier, the Buck, liarnandez, Teddington, Heart br2aker, and Lamartine; one of this lot, 1 am convinced, must be 'the trump card to-morrow! As I remarked yesterday, " if The PRIME MINISTER fails me, I shall rely On HERNANDEZ &Hid THE MARLBOROUGH BUCK to pull my judgar-nt through triumphantly;" fully ex pecting to see Teddington in the third or fourth position, with Heartbreaker and Lamartine close up. Were Ito place them, it would be thus— THE PRIME MINISTER or HERNANDEZ 1 THE MARLBOROUGH BUCK 2 TEDDING TON HEARTBREAKER 4 The latest betting this day at Epsom, up to half-past twelve, is as follows :—Derby-10 to 3 agst Teddington ; 13 to 2 agst Hernandez; Bto 1 agst The Marlborough Buck; 8 to 1 agst The Prime Minister; 16 to 1 agst Constellation; 16 to 1 agst Theseus; 25 to 1 agst Heartbreaker; 25 to 1 agst Lamartine; 25 to 1 egst Hyppolytus; 25 to 1 agst The Black Doctor; 50 to 1 agst Bonnie Dundee; 1000 to 15 agst Guy Mannering; 1000 to b agst Serus; 1000 to 5 agst Black Douglass. Neasham was nominally at 20 to to 1, Mountain Deer and The Ban at 33 to 1, and Newminster and the Tear away colt 50 to 1 each. 41F" - am, Sir, yours, &e., THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF. May 20, 1851. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY. The transactions to-day, although within two days of the Derby, were limited in amount, and, except in two or three instances, without any material influence on the quotations. We may select the following horses as having been strongest in the market: —Tedding. ton, backed for several hundred pounds at 10 to 3 and 7 to 2, Marlborough Buck, Theseus, The Black Doctor, and Neasham. Hernandez and Hippolytus maintained their positions, but were not in force. The Prime Minister opened at 8 to lovent back a couple of points, rallied a little, and left off at 9 to 1, taken, hav ing, however, some determined opponents. Constella tion receded to 17 to 1, and left off almost friendless. The most noticeable " outside" betting was against Glenhawk, Mr. Davis accommodating all customers at 1,000 to 10, until he had laid 50,0001. against him! It is now calculated that there will be at least 30 runners. Very little was done on the Oaks, but a decline was to be noticed in Aphrodite, and an improvement of ten points in Payment.

Every improvement temporarily injures a class. Tho railroads tkprived thousands of coachmen, guards, and horse kepeers of employment, but there are now more drivers, conductors, and horse-keepers than ever there were in the good old times of tour horse coaches, while there has been tens of thonsands of labourers employed in forming the railroads, and nearly as many permanently employed as porters, police, station-masters, and clerks, to say no thing of the eng'neers employed constantly in making engines, and afterwards driving them ; in short, it must be borne in mind that all the millions earn nded on railroads was spent in labour. The very ironstone in the bowels of the earth, was worthless until nised by labour, converted into iron by labour, formed into rail, an I whegls, and carriage springs by labour, and all in our own country. Look at the mills and machinery employed in making cloth. The effect was to make cloth better and cheaper than when it was all done by hand, and this very improvement in cloth caused thousands to be employed in making it up, Step into the gigantic establishment of E. MOSES and SON, and youwill see snore good clothes than you would expect all London contained. Consider the hundreds that are constantly employ ed by that firm alone, and its vast importance will at once be apparent. By adopting a system cf buying largely, by means of a large capital, and keeping hundreds of the best hands constantly employed, they have accomplished one of the most important changes that was ever known. Adopting besides all this a plan of taking small profits, they have placed every man in a position to command, however limited his income, good clothing appropriate to his situation, while the higher classes may, by paying cash, save nearly half of the amount which they used to be charged for ordi nary dress, and the more extravagant they are the more they save, whether it be in their own dress or that of their livery servants. The officers in the army, navy, and civil service can save forty per cent. in their outfits, and be better served ; in fact, every article of dress, fl'om the most costly to the most economical, is equally cheap at the price charged, and their warehouses are at this moment heavily stocked with every variety of summer fashion, adapted for all classes, while the facilities they possess enable them to measure and make up any quantity of clothes in an incredibly short time.

Her voice is a soprano, the compass of which is three complete oc taves; its flexibility is marvellous, and her performance of an air varie was one of the mo s t wo nd e rf u l displays of vocal execution ever witnessed. Paganini himself never produced more astounding effect on his violin than did Mademoiselle Aria Zerr with her voice. The other singers were Herr Mengis, Herr Reichert, M. Jules Stockhausen, and Miss Bassano. Ernst performed a fantasia on the violin from the Oteilo in the most ex quisite manner imaginable, and afterwards excited the laughter of his andienco by his humorous rendering of the "Carnaval de Venice." Madame Parish Alvars was much and deservedly applauded for the admirable man ner in which she performed a fantasia on the harp, and Signor Bottesini gave a solo on the contra basso, which is as extraordinary and as perfect of its sort as the solos of Baumann on the hasscoo. The orchestra, which was full and complete, was led by Mr. Willy, and the concert was conducted by M. Lorentz. We have seldom as stated at a more brilliant concert. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Legitimatists, headed by MM. BEURYER and DE FALLOUX, have determined to support a mo tion for a revision of the Constitution, and, at the same time, to oppose the re-election of LOUIS NAPO LEON. They have published a manifesto to this effect in the Union. Ia commenting on this manifesto the Siecie says " Well, gentlemen in favour of the prolongation of powers, and you, the President of the Republic, who swore to restore intact to your suceestor, the Constitu tion, what. do you say? Have you read the insolent manifesto published yesterday? Of what use has it be-n to you to have decided on the Expedition to Rome, to have had M. B?rryer amongst your councillors, and to have carried Cutlet de Montalemb2rt in your carriage through France. You have allowed, in spite of your• selves, the Constilutionnel to over and over again ask fur the,abzogation of Ars. 11 1 of ;he Constitutiou. Your Procureurs have allowed that journal toltsk, per fns a nefas, for the prolongation of your leavers. The Legitimate party profits by it. NVhat we announced relative to the decision of M. de Falloux was true. Not only are you repulsed, and refused any countenance, but the standard is raised egeinst the Republic. The Legi timatist party has decided to votefor the total revision of the Constitution, and, in advance, it is declared that that vote will be one in favour of Henry V. If you have not read, read. It is the Union, the most respectable of the Legitimatist journals, which gives the ultimatum of the pasty. Thus, no peace, no truce, no adjournment, is what the Legitimatists declare. The time has gone over when the question related to the prolongation of powers. 'lt is above all of you that apprehension is felt. his Ma jesty, Henry V., signifies to France, through M. Ber ryer, to receive the Monarchy in September or October without more delay. And yet it is the agents of the Ministry of the Interior, the Prefects, and Sub-Prefects who are the first to agitate the country in favour of the revision. We have lull proof of the matter, and when the proper moment arrives we shall publish them. From a partial revision the total revision has been arrived at. It is no longer a question of temporising by extending the powers of the President; the matter is now simply to bring back his Majesty, Henry V., under the pretext that every one is in favour of a change." At a meeting of the Republican Members of the Assembly, held on Saturday, the following resolution was adopted : "The members of the Republican and Democratic Opposition, assembled together, declare that in presence of the law of May 31, which suppresses three millions of electors, and substitutes a restricted suffrage for uni versal suffrage, in presence of the acts which have cur tailed the rights and liberties of the people, considering that all the projects of revision which have been brought forward are evidently intended not to ameliorate the Constitution, but to endanger the Republic—considering all this, the said members declare that they are unani mously of opinion that every project of revision ought to be opposed." There was not much business transacted at the Bourse, but the prices were firm, and the Five per Cents. closed at an advance of 30c. as compared with the closing prices of Saturday The Five per Cents. opened at 9Cf. 15c., and closed at 90f. 35c. ; the Three per Cents. closed att6f. 15c.

SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 14th have arrived. The Count DE ST. Luis (SARTORIUS), who was Minister of the Interior under NM:MAE; has been ordered to quit the electoral district of Priego, pro vince of Cuenca. GERMANY. The paragraph from a German journal announcing the death of the Duchess DL LEUCHTENBERG, widow of Don PEDRO, was erroneous. The Duchess DE LEUCHTENBERG, who died at Munich on the 13tb, was the daughter of King MAXIMILIAN of Bavaria, and widow of Prince EUGENE, Viceroy of Italy. After the events of 1815, the Vice-Queen retired to Munich. The eldest son of the deceased, the Duke DE LEUCUTENBEEG, is in Russia; her eldest daughttr is Queen of SWEDEN, the second daughter, the widow of Don PEDRO, is in Portugal, and the third daughter is in Wurtemberg, married to one of the members of the Royal Family. We read in the Patrie :—" The Augsburg, Gazere, and some other German journals, persist in affirming that the King of DENMAIIIi, yielding to the wishes of Austria, consents to enter with all his states into the Germanic Confederation. We are enabled to d?- dare that this statement is destitute of foundation." HOLLAND. THE HAGUE, MAY 19.—Accounts from Stuttgardt state that the QUEEN will leave that city on the 17th fur Nassau, and other watering-places, for tie benefit of her health, which is still very indiff , ?rent. The Amsterdam Courant says :—" In regard to the important Government plans of effecting a juncti:ln between the Belgian and Netherlands Railways, both states have already appointed the Government engi neers to draw up the plaw." GREECE. We have receic.-ed Athens journals o; the Sth. The Senate rejected on the 3-1, by 19 votes to 16, a Bill presented by the Ministers, relative to the finances ; and, in consequence, the QUEEN, by a decree dated the 6th, prorogued the Chambers for forty days. DEATH Or Tun ARCHDEACON Or SALOP.—The Venerable William Vickers, M.A., Archdeacon of Salop, in the diocese of Hereford, died on Saturday last.
