Sir JAS. GRAHAM would vote for the second reading, re serving to himself the right of examining the details of the Bill before going into Committee. The Bill was opposed by Mr. WATSON, Mr. RICARDO, Mr. ESTCOURT, Sir G. STRICKLAND, Mr. FOSTER, and Mr. BRIGHT, and supported by Mr. AGLIONBY. On a division, the second reading;of the Bill was carried by a majority of 44. Sir J. Y. BULLER moved the second reading of the County-rates Bill. Mr. M. GIBSON objected to the subject being left in the hands of amateur legislators, and urged the Government to take it up. After a few observations from Lord EBRINGTON, Mr. DARBY, Mr. BROTHERTON, Mr. HENLEY, and Mr. HUME, Sir J. GRAHAM said that he looked forward to being able to introduce, at an early period, a measure for placing the subject of county rates upon a firm and settled footing. The Bill was then read a second time. The House was counted out, at a Quarter after Seven o'clock, while in Committee on the Smoke Prohibition Bill. The result of the debate on Mr. VILLIERS' motion was only what might have been anticipated with such a House of Commons, and a Ministry not yet prepared for further change ; but, nevertheless, though the division was adverse, the speeches of all the leading men furnish grounds of consolation for the poor, and hold out the brightest prospects. The triumph of argument was all on one side, and the very admissions made by Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir JAMES GRAHAM showed that they fought against their will. According to the speech of the Prime Minister, the abolition of the corn-laws was only a question of time, for, having declared himself an advocate for free trade, he could not defend the law on the ground that it was a protection to any particular interest. On what ground, then, could he defend it? Because a sudden change might be injurious not only to land owners but to the agricultural labourers. In fact, the only difference between Mr. VILLIERS and Sir ROBERT PEEL was, that the latter would do in time what the former required should be done at once. This is the greatest victory yet obtained by the opponents of the corn-law. Messrs. COBDEN and Co. have opened the eyes of the farmers, and of many landlords also— they have at last opened the eyes of Sir ROBERT PEEL, and he only waits his opportunity. Between conviction and completion the period generally is very short, and one bad season would set the question at rest. The crisis is already approaching. The price of cattle for food is enormously high, and notwithstanding the scores of bullocks imported weekly from Holland, and articles of consumption furnished by other countries, the new tariff, which caused such awful consterna tion, has turned out a nonentity. The prices of cattle and corn mutually affect each other ; the one cannot rise without raising the other. Grain too has been rising on the Continent, and symp toms altogether conspire fur the accomplishment of this act of justice to the manufacturing, mercantile, and other important classes of this great commercial country. But let not these considerations damp the ardour of the corn-law repealers. Now is the time for them to work more vigorously than ever—the prize is within their reach, and nothing but apathy and sloth can save it from their grasp. The debate of Monday night on the new Banking Bill fur Ireland elicited, in a prominent manner, the besetting prejudice of the Premier's views on all ques tions and schemes connected with the currency. The normal error of all his legislation on this question con sists in arguing from an abuse to an original vicious ness of principle. But the very nature of abuse, in the abstract, implies the perversion of a principle good and salutary in itself. If we admit to Sir ROBERT PEEL tO the full extent of his overcharged statement all the evils he ascribes to occasional over-issues of paper, the aggre gate of whose circulation greatly exceeds that of the bond fide property which it professes to represent, our admission will add nothing to his deficient proof of the evils of that monetary system with which his Bills of 1819, 1823, and 1844, have so fatally interfered. If the same medium—a paper circulation—in the days of ex cessive speculation, prior to 1819, was, in its less substan tial branches, productive of the mischief that Sir ROBERT is so fond of multiplying in kaleidoscopic variety, and every imaginable tint and colour, till he has almost per suaded himself that they are interminable (although it is his own hand which, all the while, is shaking backwards and forwards the few ingeniously disposed, but worth less, fragments which produce the specious cheat to the eyes of the uninitiated); if the same medium also bore the empire in triumph through the enormous pressure of the last war, and laid deep and broad the productions of our present commerce and our power of accumulating capital—is the greater and more beneficial operation to be put out of view—wiped away from the record—in order that the prejudicial, but infinitely lesser, operation may be brought out with so much the greater effect ? There is neither truth nor equity—statesmanship nor logic—in these perpetual attempts of Sir ROBERT PEEL to exaggerate the occasional mischiefs, and to erase the general benefits, that are produced under such a system as he has superseded in England and Wales. It must be palpable to the conviction of every candid mind, that had we undertaken the wars which raged from 1803 to 1815 under such a monetary system as we have now, of gold and paper convertible into gold on demand, this country would have been a province of the French em pire. National bankruptcy must have inevitably over taken us at a very early period of that enormous conflict. England must have succumbed in a struggle in which she could not, and would not, fall back on such frightful resources. Whether the Pre mier has been, in his own person, at any time, a sufferer by the over-issues of private banks we do not know, and have no care to inquire. The bitterness of his remarks on Monday night on the fearful conse quences he had witnessed some years ago, as aris:ng out of the failure of some banks in the west and south of Ireland, might, however, provoke some surmises. We are far more tempted to ask what has been the amount of personal advantage derived by himself or his con nexions from the es. ablishment of that gold standard of currency to which he clings with a tenacity regardless alike of logic and experience. When a gentleman so well acquainted with the principles of commerce and the elements that ensure the success of mercantile enter prise, so constantly talks not "of green fields," but of the horrors of over-trading in merchandise and over-issues of paper, we cannot help surmising a private, personal, interested, all-sufficing reason in the back ground for such tenacity of purpose. No man knows better than the Premier that it is of the first importance to a country that its absolute capital or property should be rendered waive and circu lating by an adequate representative capital in money of some kind—paper as well as metal—that nothing like such an adequate representative of bond fide, but un employed, property does exist under his own scheme of currency, in England—and yet hc insists on a principle, the convertibility of paper into gold, which can never work without the destructive and crippling limitations of which we speak, till the gold bullion of this country and of all the circulation of Europe be multiplied at least thirty-fold. No man knows better than the same Right Hon. Baronet that the soul of commerce is freedom of action—that its vitality is identified with the security of its own rights of opinion as well as action, and, there fore, that speculation is no more than the unrepressed ex pansion of that principle, the unfettered exercise of those rights. To seek to extinguish over-trading or excessive speculations, the limits and lines necessary for the definition of which no man has ever yet at tempted to draw, is about as idle as to attempt the discovery of a means of maintaining the respiration of the lungs without oxyger, merely because it is pos sible to combine that essential vital principle with others destructive of life, and that such combinations now and then accidentally develop themselves under disastrous and very fatal circumstances ; and yet Sir ROBERT has borne his pseudo-currency " standard " in triumph through England and Wales ; has exhibited it within the limits of Scotland, over which, as well as Ireland, it it is destined soon to float as " wide unfurled" as it is now in England, and with the same calamitous results. The gentlemen of Ireland are as sensible to the danger as those of Scotland, however tardily, they have shown themselves to be. On Monday night Mr. RocHE, Sir R. FERGUSSON, Mr. REDING lON, Lord CLEMENTS, Mr. WYSE, and Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD, successively ad vanced, with all the authority of their local knowledge, experience, and personal character, most conclusive argu ments against the Banking Bill (Ireland). They were not successful. The evil day, we fear, must come, and then —woe to those who will have incurred the responsibility of invoking it ! We have observed, with great satisfaction, that Mr. Hu7r, the Member for Gateshead, has given notice that on Tuesday, the 24th instant, he will ask the House of Commons to agree to the following resolution :—" That the course pursued by Great Britain since 1814, for the suppression of the slave-trade, has been attended by a large expenaiture of the public money, and serious loss of life to the naval forces of this country, and that it has not produced any mitigation of the horrors of the m iddle passage, nor any diminution of the traffic in slaves.l7 m r . E-hru'g resolution stands first on t h e l i st and we presume there sure to come u fore it we e der discussion. We are re. of motions for Tuesday joiced to find that at last some Member of Parliament has been found to bring this highly important and long neglected subject to the test of public examination• Year after year we have gone on wasting the treasure of Great Britain (as if we really had nothing whatever at home deserving our care) on anti-slavery squadrons, for watching half the coasts of the world ; on mixed Commission Courts, for tryiug the cases of captured slave ships ; on compensation to the owners, whose captured ships had eluded the condemnation of the Courts ; on support to the Africans we have libe rated ; and on other parts of the costly slave-trade suppression machinery. On these and similar devices we have annually expended about half a million of money, and in some years we have maintained them at even double that expense. In 1839, Sir FOWELL BUXTON calculated that the aggregate expenditure of Great Britain, on slave-trade suppression alone—to say nothing of the enormous sum paid for eman cipating the West Indian negroes—exceeded 15,000,0001 sterling ! Doubtless, this is a wise, judicious, and honest application of public money. Who can ques tion it ? We have no sufferers at home on whom these millions could, in any way, have been belie , ficially bestowed. We have long covered our land with well-appointed schools for the instruction of our la bourers—we have thrown open throughout the country baths, gardens, grounds for recreation and amusement, where the toiling millions of our crowded and smoke dried towns may feel the invigorating influence of healthful exercise and innocent excitement. We have abundantly provided them with ventilation and whole some water within their dwellings, and drainage and other sanatory contrivances without. Expense never deterred us from zealously pursuing the first of our interests, the first of our duties, and the greatest of all charities—the moral and physical improve ment of our industrious poor. Towards them we have long since discharged every obligation ; Great Britain has no taxes, cramping and ob structing the exertions of industry or seducing the peasantry to the desperate immoralities of smuggling, which the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER professes the beggar's inability to redeem. Our Excise and Customs duties are no where a tribute wrung from misery—they are the cheerful contribution of a grateful people, grateful for parental protection and good govern ment aff irded them in substance and not in name. Examine those lanes and alleys of misery which in the great seats of British commerce used to huddle together so large a portion of the whole populat on. Visit now the narrow and deadly coal-beds of Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Scotland, the factories of Manchester, and the cheerless hovels of Dorset—as suredly no human victims are there. The happy condi tion of the men, women, and children of our own coun try leave nothing for justice or generosity to bestow, and it is, therefore, only proof of designing clamour or ignorant impatience of taxation to hesitate about squan dering our money on the suffering people of Africa. We bow to the truth. We humbly admit our ignorance and proneness to error, but being vulgar and arithmetical in our habits we wish to see the credit as well as the debit side of our accounts. Since we can do no good with our money at home, we shall not object to " the wisdom of Parliament" sending it abroad, only we like to have something to show in exchange for it. Spend it, there fore, great lords and gentlemen, spend it in suppressing the slave-trade, only hand over your vouchers, and show us that you have suppressed the slave-trade by spending our money. We have heard it said that you are prac tising a delusion—that the slave-trade, so far from being suppressed by your philanthropy, never was more active, more cruel, more destructive of human life, than it is now, after forty years' trial of your system. This is a very serious matter. Are we really playing over again the game of the fanatical LAS CASES, and has all the treasure and humanity we have lavished upon the negro only proved to him a source of fresh and aggravated calamity ? Let as examine the authorities on this subject. By authorities we do not mean the statements of economists and mal-contents, however well they may have qualified themselves to pronounce upon the question. Our autho rities shall be men who are above every suspicion of un duly preferring the interests of England to what is called the great cause of negro happiness and civilization. Such witnesses as are without exception , What says FOWELL BUXTON on this subject ? We are quoting from his book published in 1840 :—" The traffic," says this gentleman, " has not been extinguished, has not been diminished. By the latest accounts from which any estimate can be formed, the numbers ex ported have increased—the destruction of human life, and all the guilt and misery consequent thereon, have been fearfully augmented, at the same time it may be stated, that the numbers exported from Africa are, as compared with the year 1807 (when the Abolition Act was passed), as two to one, and that the annual loss of life has risen from seventeen to twenty-five per cent." The opinions thus put forth by one who had bsen among the most ac tive supporters of the measures of which here he so frankly and honestly admits the fearful failure, have been corroborated by the venerable Mr. THOMAS CLARK SON himself, and other abalitionists. We have, even on the same side, the high authority of Lord JOHN RUS SELL, who, when Secretary of State for the Colo nies, stated, in an official letter which he communi cated to the Lords of the Treasury, that the importation of slaves from the western coast of Africa alone, " involves a waste of human life, and a degree of human misery, proceeding from year to year without respite or intermission, to such an extent as to render the subject the most painful of any, which in the survey of mankind it is possible to contemplate." Well, then, the system has failed—failed, even in the opinion of those who have hitherto been its warmest advocates—and are we still to carry it on ? We have just commenced a fresh act in this ill-fated drama by - a new treaty with France. Is our folly to last for ever ? The man, who in the zeal of blundering humanity, endeavoured to straighten the humped back of a traveller, rendered insensible by a fall —at least desisted from his torturing kindness when he discovered his mistake. Our conduct is more inex cusable—more pregnant with mischiet, and with folly, than that of the philanthropist in _tEsop. We are pur suing a course in relation to the African, which, under the delusion of assisting him, augments his sufferings, and enlarges the field in which he suffers ; and which, at the same time, robs our own countrymen of their heritage, and has a direct tendency to condemn to moral and physical destitution around our very homes, those beings whom we are bound to love and to cherish, by every obligation of humanity, and by the first principles of our Christian faith. Is it possible that such a country as this, can persist —knowingly and wilfully persist— in such measureless folly, cruelty, and injustice ? We see so much indolent pertinacity in error—so much disposition to bow down with uninquiring submission to the dictation of prejudices assuming the garb of sanctity and humanity, that we hesitate to reply. But, at all events, we conclude as we began. We are glad that Mr. HUTT, disregarding the allurements of party politics—(we presume he does not expect his motion to find favour with all on his own side in Parliament)—disregarding, too, the certain clamour of the pseudo philanthropists, has determined to bring this great national but novel question under public and Parliamentary discussion. And let him take courage. There are many to whom his opinions may not be acceptable, but who think too well of him to doubt that one only motive could have induced him to make his contemplated exertion—an honest and irre sistible impulse of public duty. The Paris papers of Tuesday have arrived. The Journal des Debats had, on the previous evening, re ceived the following news from Spain by express:— " We have received by extraordinary express news from Madrid of the 4th. The Gazette announces that the Queen was to have left Valencia on the Ist for Castellon de la Plata, where she was to pass the night, and proceed next day to Catalonia. " The journals are occupied with the abdication of Don Carlos, and the consequences likely to follow. "The Clamor Publico, whose Editors were so arbitrarily deported to .Nianilla, says, that the arbitrary proceedings of the Government against the Press come badly at a moment when there are two grave questions to be decided, that of the marriage of the Queen, and of the relations with Rome. ' Does the Government think,' asks this Journal, that it is able to impose silence upon the independent Press, and to prevent it uttering a cry of alarm at the sight of the dangers impending over the country? A formidable tempest is pre paring, may God preserve Spain from the perils which menace her!' The Clamor announces the complete union of all sec tions of the Liberal party. Now united, never again to be divided. The Commercio also announces the union of the Liberal party. The Globe acknowledges the faults of the Govern ment, but does not think them irremediable. The Tiempo, alluding to the abdication of Don Carlos, pronounces all idea of marriage between his son and the Queen impossible. The Espectador, an Esparterist journal, warns the Progressists that emissaries have been sent through the country with a view of getting up an explosion, and recommends caution. " A rumour was spread that an insurrection would break out at Barcelona, upon the arrival of the Queen. "The Herald° mentions the receipt of letters from Rome, announcing the departure of a Nuncio, I. Branelli, for the Court of Spain." It is also announced in the same paper, that the Mi nister of Maine would, on Tuesday, propose to the Chamber of Deputies, to grant the necessary credit for keeping up the 26 cruizers on the African coast, in accord ance with the stipulations of the treaty for the suppres sriantnAi finc o aa f ttit, t ,e h nm e s po S t h a w r ah e di c T bhe r e a wn d e e concluded rmeadein the exchanged e w oh i up tl i , the te.pu. n t a h m t h b E e e n r 7 g t o ln h a f Depu ties to nullify the vote of the of Peers on the subject of the conversion of the Five per Cents., and to compel an immediate conversion by moving that the chapters of the Budget, relating to the public debt, should be sent back to the Committee. 134 members voted in favour of the proposition, and 143 against it. It was, therefore, lost by a majority of 9. The remain ing items of the Budget were agreed to. Madrid journals of the 3d inst. have been received. N official announcement of the abdication of Don CARLOS had appeared in the Gazette, but several of the papers comment on it as a matter of fact, though of little importance. The Eco del Conanercio states that Queen CHRISTINA was about to present to the POPE a crozier of great value, and another journal says she has already sent to his Holiness a tiara, valued at 4,000 f. The Government, it was said, had forwarded from Valencia its ultimatum to the Court of Rome, with in structions to the Spanish Ambassador to demand - his pass ports unless the proposed terms were accepted. The Funds continued to fall. On the 3d the Three per Cents. closed at 31i, for cash, and 32i at 60 days; the Five per Cents. at 211 for casb, and 22 - at 60 days ; and the Debt, without Interest at 71 for the 9th of July. The French Chamber of Deputies on Monday commenced the discussion on the budget of expenses for 1846, when speeches were made by MM. LEDRU Rou.rg, Ducos, LAROCHEJAQUELIN, and others, but they excited no interest , and the general discussion was closed. Several Members adverted to the Bill for converting the Five per Cent. Stock, which had been resisted by the Chamber of Peers, and M. BINCAN reminded the Finance Minister that he had pledged himself to bring forward a measure next session, should circumstances permit, for reducing that Stock. The Finance Minister said his opinion had not at all been changed by the decision of the other Chamber. The Siecle contains the fol lowing remarks on the present rage for railway speculation in France as well as England "If all the Railroad Bills that have been presented to the Cham bers during the present session were tacked to each other, end by end, they would extend to the length of 700 leagues; and the ex. penditure they would impose upon the Companies and the Govern ment would amount to a thousand millions of francs (40,000,0001. sterling). But this budget of public works does not nearly ap. broach that which is submitted to the deliberations of the British Parliament. The Railroad Pills brought in for the three king doms embrace a length altogether of 8,080 English miles, or 3,250 leagues. Of these, the share for Ireland is 1,490 miles, or 563 leagues. This enumeration does not comprise the thousands of pro jects of the same kind brought forth by the ardour of capitalists. And all this is passing in a country which already possesses the most magnificent lines of railroad, so that those which now excite this fever cannot be principal lines, but mere branches, bearing the same proportion to those now laid as the main roads bear to the vicinal or cross roads in France." The contract with Messrs. MAcKEN - zrE and Co., for laying down the rails on the Orleans and Tours line, had been signed, and it was understood that the railway would be opened by the Ist of October, 1845.

SHERIFFS' FUND.—We wish to draw the particular attention of our readers to an advertisement which ap pears in another column, of the first dinner on behalf of the Sheriffs' Fund, which will be held on Tuesday next, at the London Tavern, the Duke of Cambridge in the chair. This excellent charity, the object of which is to reclaim those who have strayed from the paths of recti tude, has paramount claims on the attention of every Christian philanthropist, for we are told by the highest authority that " there is more joy in Heaven over one sinner that repenteth, than over ninety and nine just persons that need no repentance." TWO DAYS LATER FROM THE UNITED STATES. WEDNESDAY MoaNizin.—The fast-sailing New York packet_ ship Queen of the West, Captain Woodhouse, arrived here last night, with dates to the 22d ultimo. She brought 35 passengers. The steamer Britannia arrived at Boston on the 19th, with news from this country to the 4th of May. The Cotton market had taken a favourable turn, in consequence of the news brought by her of an advance in price, and a considerable business was done. There was yet no decisive news from Mexico, but every day brought fresh evidence that, amongst the people, the proposition made by the President to Congress was almost unanimously approved. No Minister to England had been fixed upon by the Washington Cabinet. The office, it is said, had been offered in turn to Mr. Elmore, Mr. Perkins, and General Hamilton, but had been by each declined. NEW RAILWAYS. TO 7WE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sits,—l see that the Great Grimsby and Sheffield Railway Bill has passed the Commons, but do not hear that Nur sleepy Admiralty have taken any steps to secure land at Great Grimsby for a coal depot, Gravin Dock, &c., though they must know, in the event of a war, that these things are absolutely necessary to have at the entrance of such a river as the Humber w hich leads into the heart of England. At present land is of little value at Great Grimsby, but as soon as the pro jected railways bring that port nearer to the great manu facturing districts than Hull is, land will be increased in price. Severe as your remarks on the Board of Admiralty have been they have not been too much so. In fact it is a disgrace to a great naval power to have its affairs conducted by such imbeciles.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN ENGLISHMAN. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

There have been no arrivals to-day bringing later news, if we except the intelligence from Buenos Ayres, and which is rather too favourable to the Argentines to deserve implicit credit. At all events, however, the Montevideans appear lately to be playing a losing game in respect to their warlike operations. The proceedings before the Parliamentary Committees on Railways continue to excite a lively degree of interest, and the sudden check to the Cambridge and Lincoln Bill has again revived in a slight degree the hopes of those who ad vocate a direct and independent line to York. It would seem, however, that as the check to the Cambridge Bill is not at all the consequence of any impression against the merits of the line, there can be no valid ground for parti cular coutidence as to the pass ing of the York. Altogether, it is quite evident that there will be very few railway Bills passed this session ; although enough, I we hope, to afford moderate employment to the labourers, and to keep up a fair consumption of iron, and other leading staples, without unduly forcing up prices. The Funds have been quiet again to-day, and prices have experienced no alteration requiring comment. Consols have been 98% to 99 for the opening.

Every day it is crowded by fashionables, whose expectations, although previously raised to the highest pitch by the description they have heard of its wonders, yet, one and all confess, that those expectations have been more than realised. The night exhibition is also thronged every evening, as might have been anticipated. for certainly, the illuminated pano rama of London by night, with its wonderful dioramic - effects, is the greatest pictorial novelty of modern times. ,- THE NAPOLEON MUSEUM.—We_ lament to learn that this wonderful collection is about to be broken up and distri buted : it is advertised for public sale.. We have therefore paid it a last vis!.t, to mourn over the separation of so many thousands of in teresting relics, the collection of which was a labour of amazing in dustry, zeal, energy. and enterprise. It was commenced and com pleted by a gentleman named Sainsbury, to whom it still belongs. He began his wort by purchasing a few prints, thence went to pic tures, thence to memorials of every sort and kind, the authenticity of which - was proved beyond the hazard of controversy. It is suffi cient to say that in its present state it contains, in addition to 10,000 MSS., 8 marbles, 60 paintings, 70 miniatures, 60 enamels, 20 gold orders, 900 coins and medals, 10 swords and daggers, 1,300 volumes of books, 130 drawings, 30 carvings, 3,000 engravings, 100 bronzes. The examination of the assemblage has been a rare treat; unhappily it has ceased--most probably for ever, inasmuch as it is not likely one single person will be again the possessor of the store. Still there are few evils unaccompanied with good ; the sale will enable many persons to obtain a single relic, to be valued as a precious acquisition; ibr Napoleon is now a history ; all asperities associated with his name have been rubbed down by time, while there endure respect and admiration for a marvellous man.—From the Art-Union, June, 1845, page 171. THE UNION OF CHURCHMEN AND DISSENTERS.-.. We copy the following phillippic from the Morning Advertiser. What other result could any rational being anticipate The Patriot of Monday contains an account of the proceedings at the Anti.Maynoeth Conference in Dublin. Some of the speeches at that meeting have filled us with surprise. Were the accuracy of the Patriot's report not placed beyond all question, we could scarcely believe that the sentiments attributed to several of the speakers could ever have been uttered by them. Sir Culling Eardley Smith and the Rev. Mr. Blackburn seem to have left their principles as Dissenters behind them, when they quitted the shores of England. At any rate, they came out in Dublin a pair of Orange bigots, and very good bigots, too, for a beginning. If they continue for a fortnight longer to make the same progress towards High Church princi. plys which they appear to have done since they left England, we venture to surmise that ere the lapse of another month they will surpass, in their anti. Dissenting tendencies, such ultra. Churchmen as the Rev. Messrs. M`Neil and Stowell. Sir Cul ling fell foul of the late Anti-State-Church Convention at Crosby-hall. His attack on that movement was in the very worst taste. Nor were the representations lie made re. specting the Convention in accordance with fact. The Conven. tion was approved of by many of the leading Dissenters in London, as well as by a majority of the brightest ornaments of Dissent in all parts of the country. In speaking of Mr. Blackburn, we have no such reason for reservation. That gentleman has, as far as in him lay, grossly betrayed the cause of English Dissent. On the platform, in the Dublin Rotunda, he virtually abjured his principles as a Dissenter. We wish he had completed the thing by abjuring the name of Nonconformist." PRICE OF GoLn.—The premium on gold at Paris is 19 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 63 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 2577 1 / 2 , it follows that gold is 0.56 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh, the price of gold is 437 1 / per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101 d. per °mice for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 11i ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 12k .it follows that gold is 0.57 per cent. dearer in London tnan in Hamburgh. The Duke of Sutherland and the Marquis of Stafford have left Erskine House, where they had been ♦isiting Lord and Lady Blantyre, for Dunrobin Castle and the family estates in the north of Scotland. The dress which the Hon. Robert Curzon wore 3: the Queen's ball was not a " Venetian costume," but the superb :till dress and cap, with jewels, el a Persian noble in the last century. Air. Curzon returned Lst year from a mission to Erzeroora, borders of Penis. COURT C I RCULA R. WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY. —The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by their illustrious guests, went this morning to inspect the troops stationed here, consisting of the RPR imen4 of Royal Horse Guards and the second battalion of the Coldstream Guards. Her Majesty, followed by the illustrious party, was conducted by the Lord Chamberlain, at ten o'clock, to the royal en• trance, where the Queen mounted a fine chesnut charger. Her Majesty were a blue habit, with velvet collar and small metal buttons, a Field Marshall's aiguillette on the right shoulder, and the star of the Most Noble Order of the Garter over the left breast. Also a cap (resembling the undress military cap), bordered with wide gold lace, and having the peak in front edged with gold. His Royal Highness Prince Albert, his Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours, and most of the gentlemen were on horseback. The Duchess of liuc clench (Mistress of the Robes) attended the Queen on horse back. The rest of the ladies were in carriages. His Royal Highness Prince Albert was habited in a Field Marshal's uniform, and wore the ensign of the Order of the Garter, and of the Golden Fleece, and the stars of the Legion of Honour and of the Order of the Ba'h. His Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours wore a French military uniform. The Queen's Equerries, the Hon. Colonel Grey and Major- General Wemyss ; Prince Albert's Equerries, Major-General Sir Edward Bowater and Colonel Bouverie ; the Groom in Waiting, Colonel Berkeley Drummond; and the Officer in Waiting on the Duke de Nemours, M. Borel de Bretizel, were in uniform, and on horseback. The Master of the Horse, Lord George Lennox, Major- General Sir Henry Wheatley, and the Master of the House hold, were also on horseback, and wore the Windsor uniform. Two carriages and four went with:the royal party ; the first conveyed her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, her Royal Highness the Duchess de Nemours, and his Serene Highness the Prince of Leiningen. In the second carriage were his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, her Royal Highness the Princess Royal, her Royal Highness the Princess Alice, and the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, th e L a dy i n W a iti ng , th e Coun tess of Gainsborough, and la Baronne de Finguerlin, were in the third carriage. The Marquis of Ormonde followed in one of the Russian Dr osl ikas. The royal and august party proceeded to the Great Park, where the Royal Horse Guards, commanded by Colonel Richardsm and the second battalion of C o ld s t r ea m G uar d s , commanded by Colonel Henry Bentinck, were assembled, with the bands of both regiments, and received the Sovereign on her arrival, with the usual honours. The cavalry regiment and infantry battalion then passed in review, the Queen being in front, having the Duke de Ne mours on her right, and 'Prince Albert on her left. The Duchess of Buccleueh and the Master of the Horse were be hind her Majesty, and the Equerries in Waiting and the Gen tlemen of the Court were ranged in a line at a short distance. The remainder of the royal party witnessed the spectacle from the carriages. The inspection being ended, her Alajesty and Prince Albert and the whole of their illustrious visitors and suite quitted the Park shortly before half-past eleven o'clock, and returned to the Castle. - His Excellency Count de St. Aulaire, the Duchess of Bed ford, Lord George Lennox, and Sir Henry Wheatley, took their departure from the Castle to-day. His Royal Highness Prince Alfred was taken an airing this morning in the pleasure grounds of the Castle. A copy of the Pictorial Times, printed on white satin, con taining illustrations of the Queen's recent Bal Costume, was submitted to her Majesty this morning for presentation by Mr. C. Evans, and was graciously accepted. His Royal Highness Prince George, the Duke of Buccleuch, the Duke of Rutland, and Lady Adeliza Manners, the Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, the Countess of Jersey, and the Ladies Clementina and Adela Villiers, the Right Hon. Sir Robert and Lady Peel and Captain Francis Seymour, arrived at the Castle to-day on a visit to her Majesty. His Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours, attended by the Hon. Colonel Grey and M. Bor,l de Bretizel, went to-day to attend the- Ascot Races. At four o'clock the royal and august party left the Castle for a drive ; the Queen and the Duchess de Nemours being in a pony phaeton and pair ; the Duchess of Buccleuch and la Baronne M. de Finguerlin, in the double-seated Droshka, and the Countess of Gainsborough in the single Droshka. His Royal Highness Prince Albert was on horseback, attended by Major- General Sir Edward Bowater, Equerry in Waiting. His Serene Highness the Prince of Leiningen shortly fol io% ed the royal party on horseback. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, were taken an airing in the afternoon in an open carriage, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, and paid a visit to her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent at her reAdence, Frogmore Lodge. Prince Alfred was also taken an airing in the afternoon. A grand banquet was given by her Majesty in the evening in St. George's Hall. The dinner table was very tastefully decorated with a number of choice flowering shrubs, inserted in vases of silver gilt, copied from the Warwick vase, and also with se veral vases filled with fine growing strawberries, both. flowers and fruit being the produce of the royal gardens at Frogmore. The " Prince of Wales's. Epergne" was placed in the middle of the table, opposite the seats of her Majesty and of her illustrious guests. The Band of the Royal Horse Guards was in attendance in one of the galleries of the Hall during dinner. The royal dinner party included her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess de Nemours, his Serene Highness the Prince of Lei ningen, the Duke and Duchess of Btu:clench, the Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, the Right Hoe.

Sir Robert and Lady Peel left town yesterday afternoon for Windsor Castle, on a visit to her Majesty. The Duke of Buecleuch also left town on a visit to her Ma jesty at Windsor Castle yesterday afternoon. We observe a clause introduced, by way of amend ment, into the Irish Banking Act, by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, for the protection and benefit of the Tipperary Bank, has been agreed to in Committee, and inserted in. the Act, by which the Tipperary Bank is placed on the same footing, as regards the Bank of Ireland, whieh the English banks issuing Bank of England notes hold in reference to the Bank of England, and become entitled to the allowance of one per cent. per annum, in case their existing arrangements with the Bank of Ireland should be terminated. MASKED BALL AT VAUXHALL —The proprietors of Vauxhall Gardens have taken advantage of the engagement of M. Mucard at their establishment to make preparations for a series of grand masked balls al fresco, the first of which, we understand, will take place on Monday, the 16th instant. We are sorry to hear that the Rev. Dr. Wolff is laid up in Half Moon-street, Piccadilly, by a most painful com plaint in his feet, 'contracted while he was in Bokhara. The na. Lives suffer from it, and a stranger is sure to get it after being in the country about two months. It is called Ridhte, and proceeds from some insect which buries its egg in the fleshy part of the foot below the ankle; after a lapse of about a year the grub grows, and snakes a considerable swelling. After poulticing, the intruder is drawn out in the form of a long and very thin transparent worm. This process, we are informed, has taken place with regard to both of Dr. Wolff's feet, and the pain from the consequent inflamma. lion is intense. SIR JAMES GRAHAM AND AIR. TWIFORD.----Oil a meeting of the Marylehone Vestry took place, when several Members of Parliament and influential persons were pre sent. The Rev. Dr. Spry, the Rector, having taken th, chair, Mr. Gomm bro•ight forward the moti,n of wipe!) he had given notice, that the vestry call upon the Borough Menroers to bring the case of Mr. Mayer before the House of Commons, on the ground that the letter receivea by the vestry from Sir James Graham was not satisfactory. Sir B. Hall, Sir Charles Napier; and General Evans rexpressed their approbation of the conduct pursued by the vestry, but said they considered the condemnation of the course pursued by Mr. Twyford, circulated as it would be throughout the country, sufficient puni - hment for the fault. Mr. Williams, M.P., also concurred in what the vestry had done, and said he would be happy to raciVe in the House of Commons for the production of thieorrespondence between Sir J. Graham and Mr. Twyford. Several other gentlemen having spoken, Mr. Gomm asked permission to withdraw his motion, as the course which Mr. Williams had declared his intention of pursuing would answer every purpose aimed at by the vestry. This being assented to, the ♦estry separated. A tew days ago we alluded to a project for a rail way from Highbridge, Glastonbury, Wells, and Bruton, the pros. pectus of which will be seen in our advertising columns. We understand the project is sanctioned by many gentlemen resident in the district of the highest respectability (most of them being ma gistrates), and that though the estimate is uncommonly low, yet there is no doubt but that it will be accomplished even under the estimated amount. The Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter are entertaining the Duke and Duchess of Bedford and a select party at Buckhurat Lodge, near Ascot. Lady Charles Wellesley has left Apsley House to join the circle. MA YNOOTH GRANT.—At a special meeting of the Lancashire and Cheshire Presbyterian Association lately held, a petition to the House of Lords was unanimously adopted in favour of the grant, and signed, amongst others, by fourteen magistrates of the two counties. We understand that the vacancy occasioned by the death of Colonel Townsend, late of the 14th Light Dragoons, in the list of paid aides-de-camp to her Majesty, has been filled by the ap pointment of Colonel Clark Kennedy. Our readers will recollect that this gallant officer distinguished himself when in command of the :cots Greys, by the capture of one of the imperial eagles. He has lately returned from the Cape of Good Hope, having retired from the command of the 7th Dragoon Guards, which regiment was ordered on foreign service after having been thirty years in England.—United Service Gazette. OXFORD.—WORCESTER COLLEGE, JUNE 9.—The Rev. Henry Tripp, M.A., Scholar of Worcester College, and Fellow of St. Columba Colege, Stacks lan, Ireland, was elected to a Fellow ship, on Mrs. Eaton's foundation, in Worcester College, on Saturday last ; and on the same day, William Benjamin Philpott, from Trinity College, Cambridge, was elected to a Scholarship on the same fon:, dation. It is now arranged that the acceleration of the nail, which leaves London at nine o'cl,,ck in the evening, will take :laee on Tuesday, the Ist of Jnly, after which day the mail from the setzth will arrive in this town at nine o'clock in the morning, instead of eleven, as at present, and be dispatched to the south at a quarter alter three in the afternoon. The arrangements as to the arrival of the morning mail are generally complained of as inconvenient and de tective, and demand the notice of our local authorities.—Naccastle '9urousl. ACCIDENT ON HOLBORN-BILL.—On Monday a waggon belonging to Mr. Richard Stoner, jun., of 11, Belt's street, St. George's, Middlesex, heavily laden with timber, was pass ing down Bolcom-hill. The waggoner, to prevent an accident, had locked both the hind wheels. Upon arriving opposite Field-lane a vehicle stood in the way, and in order to avoid a collision, he caused the team suddenly to pull to the off side, who' the immense load swerved to the near wheel side and crushed it to splinters. The pile of timber immediately fell with an awful crash to the ground, over throwing the shaft horse, and upsetting the heavy wain. About twelve persons were passing at the time, but fortunately no one was injured. COLLISION ON THE NORTII-''ASTERN RAILWAY:- About half-past two o'clock on the morning of Saturday a collision took place on the North-Eastern Railway, near the junction at Strat ford, Essex, which, although of a serious nature, was fortunately unattended with any loss of life. It appears from inquiries made on the spot that at that hour the up luggage train from Bishop's Stort ford, with two engines attached, had arrived at Lea-bridge, about a mile from Stratford, when the leading engine was detached (one en gine being then only necessary to carry the train into London), and ran 011 to the Stratford station to get into the shed there. The driver of the engine attached to the train was cautioned not to proceed too fast, to give time for the first engine to accomplish its purpese. Just as the latter was about to back into the "siding," to get upon the other line of rail, he perceived the train coining up, and before he weld get off the main line the engine of the train came in collision with his tUffer-board. By the concussion both the engines were forced off the rails, one falling to the right and the other to the left. Fertunately none of the carriages were forced off the rails, but the shock occasioned by the collision caused great terror to the pas sengers, The Company's servants were immediately at hand to render every assistance, and it was found that, be'.ond receiv:nga few contuAmlS, none of them had sustained ally _material injury.
