At length in the sixth month of the session, the Marriage Bill has received a third reading in the House of Commons. All the old arguments, that have already been repeated usque ad nauseam, were again brought forward, and a futeher attempt was made to throw out this just and salutary measure in the last stage of its progress. But the effort failed—signally and decisively failed. Although the advocates of the Bill did not exhibit the same zeal and energy displayed by their opponents, there was happily a sufficient attendance to defeat the bigots who desired to control the consciences of their fellow-subjects, and to deprive them of the most sacred and dearest privilege belonging to freemen. The Hon. Member for Midhurst led the van on the present occasion. He repeated the hackneyed and stereo typed objections, and again plue ged the House into the maze of polemical discussion. We had hoped that what has been termed " the religious part of the question " 'had been abandoned by general consent, that we should hive heard no more respecting a matter so perfectly plain, that it is difficult to E 011• ceive how any person of ordinary common sense could have entertained a rational doubt on the sub ject. • Mr. WALPOLE has, however, discovered a new reading of the' translation—that the word OiXELOc, in the Greek traaslatioß, meant not merely kin dred or relation., but " members of the same household or family." And on this novel version —the translation of a translation—he mainly relied. But if this argument be worth anything, if the slightest weight is to be attached thereto, it must artrely be carried a great deal farther, and to an ex tent never yet contended for. Ic must apply to every person who ever dwelt under the same roof as companion, friend, housekeeper, governess, or in any other capacity whatsoever, although not in any degree connected by blood or affinity. The weakness of the cause may be judged of from the fact, thet a man of education and abilily, who has risen to emi nence in his profession, should have descended to an argument so puerile and ridiculous. The Hon. and Gallant Colonel, the Member for Bradford, completely ' dispelled the mystification attempted to be thrown over this part cf the subject by showing the true in tent and meaning of the passage, that " for the sake of peace the polygamic laws prohibited a man from having , two sisters as his wives in his house at. once." But Mr. WALPOLE, conscious of the slende r foun dation on which he rested his case, endeavoured to - show that the prohibitionists should receive the " benefit of the doubt." This might be a very reason able suggestion if the Bill were for the pnreatee of en forcing such marriages, and compelling a reluctant widower to marry the eldest surviving sister of his former wife under a heavy penatty—just as a childleis widow might, under the Mosaic law, have required the brother of her former husband to receive her as a wife. But such ie not the C 332. There is to be no compulsion of any kind. No person who feels the - slightest scruple can be called upon to act contrary to his own judgment. The only point in dispute is whether persons who entertain no doubt or difficulty whatsoever, who feel that the temporal and eternal welfare of th. nselves and families will be best pro- THE SUN, 'noted by such an union, are to be restricted and cir- • cumscribed in their liberty of choice, in the privilege of selecting the future partnes of their lives, to gra' fy the ridicifous fancies of n b g• t ed and fanatical , clique. The question, as we have long since stated, is essentially one of"chit and rdigiuus litlerty," and the very argument I.c-sorted to by M. Waneons affords the strongest evidence of this fact, which we have endeavoured to impress upon our readers; for if everything were to be pro hibited on which some who profess to have what are termed tender consciences were pleased to entertain, or to say that they entertained, a doubt, there would be an end of any degree Lf toleration. The tyrant majority, or what is more to the purpose in the present instance, the factious and turbulent minority would carry all before them, and inflict grievous punishments on all who ventured to wor ship their CREATOR in the manner which, in their souls and consciences, they deemed most fitting. But, although the Bill was read a third time, it was not finally carried through the House. A clause was proposed, providing that it should not extend to Scot land. This point had already been fully discussed in Committee, and the proposed limitation was deliberately negatived; but it was again brought forward, and wi , h a similar result. The " Obstructives," how ever, succeeded in retarding the measure for another day. It must again be brought on next week, on the question that the Bill do now pass ; and its friends must once again attend in their places to ensure its final success in the popular branch of the Legislature. It will then be for the Peers of Eogland to decide the question ; we cannot doubt as to the result, or suppose that their Lordships would reject a Bill on which the hearts of so many thousands, aye millions, of her MAJESTY'S subjects are anxiously set. One thing at least is certain, the opposi-ion in the Lords will be of a straightforward and bona fide character• If defeated on a fair trial of strength, the minority will not resort to the " dodging and trickery," to the vexatious delays and repeated divisions on the same points, so justly to be complained of in the minority of the Commons House of Parliament on this impor tant and deeply interesting question. Our impression this evening contains elsewhere the report of a meeting held yesterday in this metropolis, with an eye to the acknowledgment of the great public exertions made in the way of sanitary im provement by Mr. GEORGE ALFRED WALKER. To tew members of the community are the people of England more largely indebted than to this gentle man, whether in regard to intellectual ap plication, to physical labour, or to pecu niary sacrifices in the advancement of a great social reform materially affecting the health and morals of the community. Hence it was with peculiar satisfaction that we observed the initial move ment of yesterday towards the recognition of the efforts of this really national benefactor. The Noble Lord, the representative of the borough of Maryle bone, has only afforded another testimony of his public spirit by taking the lead in this laudable endeavour to commend the beneficient undertakings of Mr. WALKER. As chairman of the meeting to which we are now directing public attention, he yesterday specified in terms of the most earnest, as they were also the most deserved, eulogium the nature of the enterprise upon which Mr. WALKER embarked fourteen or fifteen years ago—an enterprise the suc cessful prosecution of which necessitated the most complete self-forgetfulness and the most laborious perseverance. Taut both those requisites have been most fully and cordially yielded by him throughout the agitation of the subject of Extramural Interments, we fancy is sufficiently proven by the mere circumstance that now, in defiance of all ob stacles, the evils of the existing system of burial have been formally acknowledged by her MAJESTY'S Go. vernment. But for the assiduous persistance of Mr. WALKER, and for his magnanimous sacrifice of his own personal comfort and convenience, we should not so readily have attained even this Shadow of the desired innovation. For to his painful disclosures in reference to the manner of intramural sepulture are alone attributable the steps already taken by the Cabinet in the way of improvement. True, without doubt, those steps are as yet only fal tering, and in many respects erroneous, yet, at the same time, they are also reasons for oar congratula tion, seeing that they are auguries of an ultimate enactment securing to the community all the benefits desired by Mr. WALKER and his co-operators. As yet we have only a feeble hint of those benefits, but in the end that hint assures us that, with perseverance, we shall compass their entire realisation. As was very emphatically observed yes terday at the meeting, the evils of the measure now awaiting the last approving stamp of the Legislature, are not in any manner traceable to the scheme of Mr. GEORGE ALFRED WALKER, that gentleman being strongly opposed to the whole project of this lamentable Bill, and seriously dread ing the inevitably evil effects of its ope ration. Had the plan been submitted (as it should undoubtedly have been submitted) to his scrutiny prior to Its introduction to the Houses of Parliament, the pernicious clauses, already again and again enumerated by ourselves, would infallibly have been expunged, and others substituted of a nature calculated to reconcile all conflicting interests. The circumstance that Mr. WALKER. has throughout the whole movement acted independeutly of any one else, was surely no valid reason for the Cabinet re fusing to avail themselves of his w.questionable abilities, and of his undoubted experience. Knowing mere than any other individual in the United Kingdom upon the subject of intramural interments, it would have been only rational to have permitted him to participate in the labours of improvement, especially seeing that he himself individually ori ginated the whole scheme of s tnitary innovation. Other persons have subsequently pushed forward more prominently in behalf of the health of the mul titude, winning more particular regard from the population by their more ostentatious exertions, obtaining official appointments at Gvvydyr House, and being invested with the honours of Knighthood in the columns of the official Gazette. But, meanwhile, the gentleman in whose favour the-e tardy efforts are now making towards the purchase of a suitable testimonial has been labouring ear nestly, without any encouragement whatever from the State, and accumulating for the masses, almost in secret, a large amount of practical benefactions. With a view to the public recognition of these great services to the multi - ude, the prelitninar3 meeting con vened yesterday will be beneficial as a testimony that the nation is not invariably ungrateful to its benefactors, beyond which the occurrence will not prove without advantage as a glaring cnraleinnation of the forgetful ness evinced by the Government. Gratified, how ever, as we are at the circumstance, and striafied as we must assuredly be with the sl.a7e taken in this commendable movement by Lord DUDLEY STUART, the Chairman, and by Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON, the Secretary, we cannot but regret that the meeting was n o u re ver g t e h n e e le r s a s l , nTchtteoinlle eff of ect;,r a e i , d u t a i e n c g e sfsri o b m le c th h e aracter. selec tion of an inconvenient hour and locality may be readily obviated, and we trust that the people at large will be soon enabled t o evidence their regard for Mr. WALKER, and their ad m i rat i on fur his la bours, by a more numerous attendance, and a not less unanimous enthusiasm. art desirou s We would again urge upon those who of promoting a Christian observance of the Sunday, as contradistinguished f r om a Judaical ob servance of the Sabbath, net to relax one jot or tittle in their exertions. The Pharisees are reckless ; it was only yesterday that the clique of " illustrious obscure," who on Tuesdayihad stated to Lord JOHN RUSSELL that they were the representatives of the weekly metropolitan press (they being connected exclusively with journals which do not publish on Sunday, and having therefore a direct interest in diminishing the circulation of the Sunday journals) waited upon the Marquis of CLANEICARDE, the Post master-General, end made the same representations to him, urging' him to render permanent the aboli tion of the Post-office Stmday delivery. The Mar quis of CLANEICARDF, in his- swayer, stated that the tquiry now pending would continue for some werksond - a at until that inquiry was concluded the Post• office de livery on Sunday would not be restored. This an sa is anything but satisfactory. There is no ne w !salty fur any such delay, and it would 8 sem as though the Ministry were afraid the SabbatariAns. Their conduct, too, on LONDON, THURSDAY to be broken. The excommunication accordingly was pronounced, but after the absolution the Sorer( izn I' .- tiff made in a loud voice the most complete culugium of the magnanimous Ferdinind, of his v,ry dt ar son in COriq, tho King of the two recalling in rho u. ci ti sttt ring terms the tervie,s h e has rtlittcrtd to See, ami the Soveretok Pontiff ; and expiess jug tovi , late n.t.c•.uttJ; filri 4, e . piete gratitude tor such a CntiAisn litinec - -. • 'l•tr.s a, tavtq', the same mom. nt, the right: and uzag , s ut the Chula, and the regards due to a sovereign who has done so much fur the Holy See." THE AUSTRIAN PLOT FOR THE ASSAS SINATION OF KOSSUTH. A man named BARD! has lett Constantinople for London in a sailing vessel. He is the bearer cf do cuments which tend, by strong ci cumstantial evi dence, to show the participation of the Austrian authorities in the plot for the assasdnation of Kos-urn. The Austrians had seized and imprisoned him, but failed to obtain his papers, and he has at length managed to escape from their clutches with these important documents i❑ his possession. Mr. Locxa ' s motion proves that they have vastly or:rrated the fore.) of the advocates for "a bitter I observance of the Sabb ,th." They had promised him assistance, and w e have seen the sort of assistance the y hove render- d therefore, becomes doubly necessary that the gr.-at majority of the people should exert themselves, .hutild show their real strength if they do not wish to be ridden over roughshod by a noisy, bigotted, fanatical minority, whose congregational organization gives them peculiar facilities for carrying out their selfish object, and for propagating the grossest presentations in support of their views. The arrogant assertion of exclusive righteousness on the part of these Sabbatarians would be amusing from its absurdity, were it not disgusting for its bigotry. One " of the illustrious obscure," who attended the deputation to the Marquis of CLANEICARDE yesterday, coolly arrogated to himself and his clips the exclusive possession of morality, and deemed all public writers who were opposed to his narrow and sectarian views as being wanting rn a high moral tone—this person evidently sympathises with the fanatic who addresses the " Cursing Letter" to Mr. Loctcs, and it is only want of power that prevents such persons from condemning to the stake all who venture to differ from them in opinion. It is amusing to hear the manner in which certain Sabbatatian newsvenders, who attended this deputation, propose to deal with the valuable property of those persons through whose exertions these very men live, and move, and hare their being. We would remind these gentlemen that if there were no newspapers there would be no newsvenders, and that if they destroy the circulation of the Sunday papers they will at the same time destroy their own profits : they may perhaps eventually find that they will have to pay too dear for their Sabbatarian whistle, It is, however, a mere selfish faction of the great and respectable body of newsvenders who are thus acting, and who seek to injure the Sunday newspapers in order to benefit themselves at the expense of their col leagues, by forcing a circulation for certain journals, miscalled newspapers— Ut lucus a non lucendo— because they contain no news—an attempt, however, which must necessarily prove unsuccessful, as those who are accustomed to receive their Sunday news paper, convey ieg to them intelligence up to the very latest hour, will not be content to substitute for it a " stamped sermon." The Salsbatarians are reckless and untiring, the Ministry is, made of squeezable materials ; behoves it then that we be active also, and apply the pressure in the right direction. Let every individual elector who feels himself aggrieved (and who does not ?) by the abolition of the Sunday delivery write a letter to his representative, calling upon him to do his utmost as a Member of Parliament to bring about a restoration of the old system; and let him also ad dress a letter to the Prime Minister to the same effect, stating therein that he is an elector. If this be done speedily there cannot be a doubt but that the Sunday delivery will be as speedily restored. Sir Thomas Wilde has been appointed Lord Chancellor. He will for the present fulfil the duties of the office in Court and in the House of Lords, but he will ultimately be appointed solely to the duties of the Lords. He takes office subj.. , ct to all arrange ments. It is understood that Sir J. Jervis, the present Attorney. Genera), will succeed Sir T. Wilde a.; Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, and that Sir John Romilly will be appointed Attorney. General. It is confidently expected that Mr. Cockburn will succeed Sir John Romilly as S , licitor- General. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. It is said that the Legititnatists intend to cele brate St. Henry's day, the fe!e day of the Duke of BOVaDEAVX with great solemnity. The authorities have issued the following notice on the subject : •• The authorities are informed that at this moment a banquet and a high mass are in course of preparation for at. Henry's-,ay, and that invitations to attend have b-eu addr,ssed to several persons. The Pie:ect of 1 ) ..;- lice apprises those persons who have ben invited, that manifestations of this nature are forbidden." Sc. Henry's-day is celebrated on the 15th of July. The discussion on the Law of the Press wzs re sumed in the Assembly on Wednesday, after a vain attempt on the part of M. CnsutEux to record a pro test against the conduct of the President Mir's' for refusing to call to order the Minister ROUIIER who characterized the revolution of February, 1848, as a funeste catastrophe. In the course of the dis cussion M. LEO DE LABORDE declared that he consi dered the absolute legitimate monarchy the best mode of government, but that as he could not obtain that, he should maintain the Republic as the next best. 31. VICTOR IluGo spoke most eloquently against the measure. In the course of his speech he denounced in eloquent and truthful terms the machinations of the parti-pretre. He s.id the real revolutionists were the absolutists and reactionists, the apologists of the Jesuits and the Inquisition (pointing to M. MONTALEMBERT), of that diabolical sect who, after preaching the murder of kings, now preached the murder of nations, who mixed maxims of death with those of the Gospel, and poisoned the holy water urn. He then proceeded to taunt them with seeking support from the Voltarians who laughed at them, and from the Jew bankers whom they would fain commit to the flames. During the course of the discussion M. ROEMER, the Minister who the day before bad insulted the Republic, at tempted to address the Assembly. He was met with loud cries of " order" from the Members of the Left, which prevented him from proceeding. M. DUNN, the President, was excited to a pitch of fury by the determination of the Left to insist on an apology from N. Rouuaß, and exclaimed, " D.l. Mica, I have seen you interrupting several times." This sally from the impartial and trustworthy President pro. duced shouts of laughter ; Al. Mfox had not been present during any portion of the sitting. The noise still continued, and tired with shouting, but determined that M. ROUHER. should not be heard until he had apolo gised, the opposition left their seats one by one, and re tired at intervals of a minute each, every one slamming the door violently after him. As there are 225 Metn bnsof the Left, this proceeding effectually barked ROUBER, sod the Assembly adjourned. It appears that at. a Counci', hell at the Elysee in the morning, it had been determined, on the advice of M. BAROCELE, that M. ROUBEE should not apologise. General BOYER, the late President of Hayti, died in Paris on Tuesday. The differences between General D'HAUTPOUL and General CBANGARNIER have become so serious, that the resignation of the former has become inevitable.

Some of the members in the House of Assembly had proposed to annex the lonian Islands to Greece—to abolish certain powers possessed by his Excellency the Lord High Com missioner in employing the police force, and to cut down the salaries of the Government employee, particularly the English, to a m( re nothing.

The last of the s, ries ot Grat d M... n ng Centel is at this theatre was given 3 esterr'a3. The re was as usual a monster progr and the selection well deserved the terra "cisss:c.ll." It comprised pieces from the works of Mi zart, 13,ethovi n, Cheruhini, Parsiello, Stradell,s, Spahr, Dr. Arne, Rossini, M-rearlante, Haydn, and Haley). ; and the immense vocal and instrumental resources of the theatre were engaged in its interpre talon. Seining, Catherine Ila)cs, Parodi, Ida Bertrand. Golliani, Fr. z zolini, Miss Masson (of the Grand Opera, Paris, her first ez iri; Sines) .a Ltblachc Colletti, Belletti, Gardoni, Bat.- Reeves, F. Labl a che, and Sig. Lo renzo, contributed by their voc a l t a l ents t o a v er y ri c h &Id varied musical treat; and in addition to the full or chestra, conducted by Mr. BaFe, and the chorus of the appearance), • C an a e l theatre, M. Thalberg played some of his favourite piano forte piec:s. Among the instrumental pieces (besides M. Thalberg's solos, which were enthusiastically en cored) were 13 , ethoven's symphony No. 8 in F, and Mendelsohn's Scherzo ar.d Wedding March (Midsummer Aighes Dream). To particularise the execution, even to give the names, of nearly thirty vocal pieces, is out of the question. It, is enough to say that, throughout, the concert fully sustaintd the high character already attained by there performances. Among the encores were Madame Sontag's " The soldier tired," and Curschmann's spirited trio (qing by Gardoni, Calzolari, and Baucarde), " Viva Bacco." Miss Masson wide most favourable impression, as well by the quality of her voice as by the expressivenes, if her st) le and the excellence of her vocalization. The bet prof of the excellence of the entertainment was that, though so lone, it kept a full audience in unwearied attention arid perpe tual delight. It was a fortunate thought of the manage ment to giv tL:s series of concerts; became while the selections have attested the musical taste and know ledge of the conductor, and his happy choice of r xamples at once illustrative of the characteristics of many com paratively unknown composers and pleasing to the general taste, the execution has displayed in a marked and triumphant manner the extraordinary vocal re sources (and, let us add, the incrumettal excellence) at the command of the direction. We have no doubt that such performances will constitute a permanent attrac tion, as they doubtless conduce to the spread of musical taste and knowledge. ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. Mademoiselle Rachel repeated, last night, her won derful personification of Adrienne Lecouvreur; and the second performance confirmed and strt-ngthened the opinions which we expressed on Tuesday lust. So completely is Rachel mistress of the art whose very es sence is to conceal itself, that every movement, gesture, and intonation seems the spontaneous result of imme diate and most natural impulse. Nothing is " overdone or come tardy off." The minutest detail is there, with out the appearance of elaboration; and in the " very whirlwind of passion" there is ever that " temperance that doth give it smoothness." The " modesty of na ture" is "nt-ver overstepped." She is, indeed, the very ideal presented in Sh.4k.spere's inimitable "advice to the playere." It is this that lends majesty and force to every act a.,d word of Rachel. List night the enthu siasm of the fashionable throng at - St. James's Theatre knew no b,,unds. The crescent passion of the feirth and fifth acts was marked with the most breathless at ntion, interrupted at every pause by plairtits the ter s t rapturous. Mademoiselle Rachel was repeatedly sum moned before the curtain to receive a homage as ht.arty as it was well merited. Such an ought to be cherished. We have never seen and shall never see its like again. SAILING OF THE ATLANTIC.—The powerful and splendid steam-ship Atlantic, Captain West, sailed from Liverpool yesterday forenoon; she carries out about sixty passengers and a light mail for the United States, Together with a heavy cargo of goods. His Excellency the Nepaukse Ambassador and suite spent some time on Saturday in the extensive ware rooms of the Messrs. Nicoll, of Regent•street, and expressed their satisfaction at the vast display of manufactured cloths, &c., offered for their inspection; some of the most valuable of which were selected as presents upon their return to their native country. THE LATE STEAM-BOAT ACCIDENT AT LAMBETH. —Yesterday Mr. W. Payne, coroner of London, held an in quest, which lasted nearly six hours, at the Steel Yard Tavern, Upper Thames-street, on the body of Mr. Hawtrey, jun., son of the member of the Court of Common Council for Oread-street Ward. Nearly 20 Wittle3BtS were examined; from whose evidence it appeared that the deceased and four other young gentlemen, n the evening of Saturday week, hired a randan skiff at Mrs. Needham's, Paul's Wharf, en 4 proceeded up the river as far as Westlninsier-Eridge, when they attempted to return hack At that moment the Dahlia steam. boat crossed from Hungerford-market on her way to Westminster-bridge. The steamer was stopped as soon as possible, but owing to the tide running very fast the two boats came Into collision. The side of the smaller one was stove in and instantly filled with water. Four of the rowers were rescued and taken on board the steam-boat, but the de ed to bale the water out were cderaoswendeda.n Verdict d Accidental death." LICENSED VICTUALLERS ASYLUM.—RECENT FETE AT TILE ROYAL SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GAEDENS.-Mr. Tyler, the proprietor of the above justly-admired place of public attraction, was kind enough yesterday (in balancing with the board the account of the Wte had at his establish ment on Monday and Tuesday last, in behalf of the above institution), to present the society with a contribution of 10 guineas towards the "Chapel Fund." In addition to so kind a contribution, it should be stated that Mr. Tyler, on the second day of the tete, presented to each of the 130 children of the Licensed Victuallers' School, to whom he gave a free admission, a silver token in testimony of his admiration of that institution, and, in addition to such acts of liberality, Air. Tyler was so good as to say that he would readily open the doors of his gardens to all the children of the Licensed Victuallers' School, on any Wednesday during the present season that the governor and committee might see fit to se lect. So sincere pledges of Mr. Tyler's good wishes towards both of the institutions we feel assured will be received w ith grateful thanks by the trade, and acknowledged by the public. THE LATE SIR ROBERT PEEL.—Yesterday a pre liminary meeting of merchants and bankers took place at the London Tavern, for the purpose of considering the pro priety of calling a public meeting in the city of London on the subject of promoting a subscription for raising a testimo nial in honour of the lamented statesman ; Sir Edward North Buxton was called to the chair. Amongst those pre sent were Mr. Joseph Hume, M.P., Sir Moses Montefiore, Bart., Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Sheriff Nicoll, and otherinfluen tial gentlemen. Letters were read approving of the object, and expressing regret that the writers could not attend the meeting, from Mr. George Glyn, Mr. Raikes Currie, M.P., Sir James Duke, Alderman salomons, Nr. W. Gladstanes, Mr. R. D. Mangles, M.P., and several others. The meet ing unanimously agreed to a resolution to pply to the Lord Mayor for the use of the Egyptian Hall of the Man sion-house upon the occasion, and the Lord Mayor, who was forthwith waited upon, received the deputation with marked respect, and appointed Monday next tor the meeting; bis Lordship will take the chair on that day, at two o'clock precisely. It i expected that the attendance will be most numerous. The Rev. Mr. Marshall and fur. Wire were appointed secretaries. BANQUET TO SIR JAMES DUKE, M.P.—We observe from the London papers, that. Sir James Duke left that city entertained at a on Monday for Edinburgh. He is to be bis by the banquet in the Hopetouir Rooms he re , on Thursday, Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Town Coun ci l. in tended as a return for the honour which, when Lord llayo; of London, lie conferred on our civic bioi authorities ntdg b r y a i t nvi ify w them to dine with him at the Mansion-house. We under stand de stand that most of the leading legal and other officials have r received invitations to unite with the Council in this mark of resHpecAtutvoESsiT p Sir Jam a e o s sr D l u c k i e s .- - S T co h ts e ma s n u . ing statement appears in the Cork Examiner. It completely re futes the report of an extensive failure in the potato crop in Kerry :—" A gentleman connected with this office has passed through a considerable district of Kerry, on to Lime rick, and his account of the crops, especially the potato, is most cheering. His words are—• lam glad to sas that the rumoured potato blight is a complete failure. I never saw any thing more cheering thon the appearance of the crops all OAK the line from Tralee to Limerick, the potato especially, though the quantity of them afforded ample scope for variety in their appearance.' A Cappoquin correspondent writes—' I have not seen a single blighted stalk this year.' He admits that some few plants have been destroyed by harsh winds or have only reached a stunted growth owing to bad seed ; b u t he distinctly asserts that there is no appearance of the rot or disease of the three or four last years. A Youghal corres pOndent writes—' There is no appearance here of the potato blight, although this was the first place where the potato blight di tinctly appeared on former occasions. We have excellent accounts of the potato from Douglas, Carrigaline, Passage, and the various potato-growing districts in the neighbourhood of this city. The writer passed through more than to enty blooming fields yesterday, and could not per ceive the slightest trace of taint or disease." IRONMASTERS' QUARTERLY MEETING.—WOLVER uAIvirroN, JULY 10. - The usual quarterly meeting of the ironmasters of this district has been held here to-day; the attendance was not numerous, and the business transacted was very inconsiderable. Very few orders given, and al though some of the large mskera state confidently that the trade is rather firmer, and the present prices can be well maintained. it is doubtful whether they will be borne out by the fact; need" makers, compelled in many instances by the co :ditian of their tenancy to produce, must sell at some price, and the demand at the present moment being limited, only ai, increase of it can ensure fur the trade anything like healthiness. The meeting at Birmingham to-morrow may di , close more precise results, but judging from actual cir cumstances, the incli.iation of prices is rather downward than otherwise. It is proper to state, however, that the stock of iron is not large, the make having been as much as possible restricted during the last three months.

Yesterday morning, this match having been resumed, was brought to a conclusion in the afternoon, before the usual hour for dinner adjournment, three o'clock, had arrived. It will be found that Kent was beaten by six wickets. The days were when the Ktwisti Eleven were almost, if not quite, in vincible, but in the present season the ordinary success has not awaited their eflors; for instead of being the victors, they stand in the position of the vanquished. There was a large amount of play of the highest order, and a numerous assemblage of the patrons of cricket. This morning the Eleven of li,nt go over to the Oval to commence their match with the Eleven of Sart ey—a match which will be one of the finest of the season. At the conclusion of the match the score stood thus : BENT- FIRST INNINGS. T. Adams, c Chatterton, b Day W. Pilch, c Chatterton, b Lay E. Martin, b Wisden .... 1' Pilch, b Wisden W.

The answer has been handed to us, in order to show, in contrast with other late replies from the same quarter, that the Duke can couch a refusal in courteous terms. The letter, dated " Strathfieldsaye," is as follows: " The Duke of Wellington presents his compliments to Mrs. Davies. He by no means doubts that any publication from her would deserve any patronage. More than twenty-six years have elapsed sinFe others suffered from the Duke having incautiously what is called given his patronage to a work of which the title and prospectus indi cated nothing but what was proper. The Duke had but a choice of one of two things - either to examine every work before he should what is called patronise it, or decline to give what is called his patronage to any work whatever from that time forwards. The Duke's various avo catious, professional and other, induced him to adopt the latter course, as lie really had not bear time for the efficient execution of that first niptiened. In the course of the period which has elapsed since that time tte Duke has had hundreds, nay thousands of applications from persons of all classes and degrees; but he Las not in any one instance de parted from the course which he has laid down fur the guide of his own conduct. Those who.r. he had heretofore refused would have reason to complain of the Duke, if, in confidence in Mrs. Davies, be was to depart from ti,e course which he has adopted, and in adhering to which he has invariablyper severed.-- Mrs. Davies, kc." , - - THE BEAU AND THE ACTRESS.—A M. Bonnet, of Montpellier, having a bear of the Pytdndes, to which he had succeeded in imparting a remarkable degree of instruc• tion, entered some time ago into a contract with M. Fournier, director of the Theiltre de la Porte St. Martin, to exhibit the animal on the stage for 401. a day, for two months from the 13th May last. A play called the Bear of the Pyrentes Was written, and the animal learned its part admirably. But 7=3 actress, who was to be saved from death by the beast, refused, as required by the authors of the piece, to throw herself into its arms, a an expression of her gratitude. This led to difficulties between her and the director, and, the authorities having intervened, they gave positive orders that the bear should nut be allowed to appear in public unless muz zled. This rendered the perlOrmance impossible. Bonnet ac cordingly brought an action against Fournier for 1,8751., tl:e amount due to him on their contract, and the cutln,rs of the piece brought an action against the director for I,OOOE, for the loss sustained by the nor-performance of the piece. M. Fournier, on his part, having given up the management of the theatre to M. Colin, demanded that that gentleman should be declared responsible in bis place. The Tribunal of Commerce, after hearing the arguments of all the parties, relieved M. Fournier frf,m all liability, and condemned Colin, as his successor, to pay Bonnet LAM!. and the authors 500 f.
