The House of Commons has at last set to work in right earnest, and a good deal of progress was made yesterday. We cannot blame the Scotch members for wasting time, for they lent their aid to the Government and got through their work most expeditiously. Mr. BOUVERIE'S famous amendment, which was to work such wonders, has vanished into thin air, so far as any practical pur pose can be served by it, and the hon. member and his friends may cease to exult over the brief bright triumph which the " managed majority" effected. This is fortunate, because it threatened, if persisted in, to imperil the affair, and to invalidate the working out of the English Reform Bill. The Lord Advocate moved a proviso, which was agreed to by Mr. MONRCREIFF in behalf of the Scotch members. The conclusion arrived at after some discussion of its merits was, that no man should vote who, during the preceding twelve months, had been exempted from the pay ment of poor—rates through poverty, or who had been within the receipt of parochial relief during the present year. The lodger franchise is to be the same as in England. Sir EDWARD COLEBROOK was not successful in his attempt to prevent the creation of faggot-votes, and neither party seemed to consider his scheme favourably, it b • emg nega tived without coming to a division. The sixth clause was postponed, that being the ono which provides that the third member to Glasgow should be elected on the " minority" principle. The Go vernment were fortunate in the divisions of last night, and a majority of thirty-nine decided in their favour, instead of Mr. BAXTER'S proposal that Glasgow should have four members instead of three. This was taken as a test for Mr. DISRAELI'S proposal of seven members to Scotland instead of ten. A good deal of progress was made besides all these arrangements, so that yesterday certainly stands ape rt as a rara avis among the days of this session. The Redistribution scheme of the Govern ment has been revised and improved, and Scot land has benefited by the alterations introduced. It is tr ue that the members taken from the " doomt3d boroughs" of England might as well have been given to this country, and additional seats added. to the list for the extension of the representa tion in Scotland ; but as matters had gone so far it may be as well that things should be left as they are. It must not be supposed that all was tame in the transactions of yesterday, for, on the contrary, the diE cussions were numerous and several knotty points came under notice. There was an absence of personality in the debate, which saved a great deal of time, and moreover the Scotch members stuck firm to their purpose of getting the work done as briefly as propriety would permit them to effect it. Sir L. PALK moved that the representation of England and Ireland should not be interfered with, and adduced some reasons to show that the House might resolve that the seats which Mr. BAXTER'S instruction claimed should be given to England, but Mr. DISRAELI replied that this could not be, and although he sympathised with the object in view in this proviso, still to adopt it must infallibly riopen the English measures. As the right hon. gentleman truly observed, the House have been engaged on this matter for two years, and it had " been a very severe and difficult labour," and on the whole they had arrived at a conclusion which promised good to the country. Of course if arguments were to prevail, and every one to endeavour to be satisfied, it would be useless to expect to come to a settle ment this session. As Mr. DISRAELI added, they must look at the question as practical men, and see whether " by mutual concession and compromise they could not bring about a satisfactory result." This is most correct, and if the principle had been more fully acted upon a great deal more might have been accomplished this session besides passing the Scotch and Irish Reform Bills, but unhappily party spirit came in the way and obstructed all progress for some time. Not only did Mr. GLADSTONE persist in pushing forward the Irish Church question at every possible and impossible opportunity, but faction animated some honourable members, and led to the intro thiction of proposals that wasted time in discussion, and, if assented to by the House, confused exist ing arrangements, and interfered with the course of legislation this year. A large majority decided against Sir L. PALK, and the Government came off triumphantly in all respects in •the discussion of yesterday. Mr. GLADSTONE and Mr. BRIGHT fought hard to support Mr. BAXTER'S larger pro posal against the Government scheme of seven members, but to no end, which shows that the House is getting pretty well tired of their officious meddling on every occasion that presents itself. The Scotch members may be congratulated upon the progress which has been made, and the Government, we should imagine, must feel satisfied at the manner in which this work has been commenced. There seems now every chance of coming to a speedy conclusion, and in deed there would have been no fear before had not certain parties made it their special care to inter pose obstacles, and the act of others to point them out to the notice of the House, and infer therefrom that progress was impossible, and that this year must be wasted. The time is short now, certainly, but that is. no reason why any of it should be wasted, and we have good reason now to hope that the worst is over, and that the vexed question may be satisfactorily settled this year. The public will hail the probability of this with delight, for Mr. GLADSTONE'S factious course has now no favour, and great anxiety has been felt at the continued de lays in the way of progress. The Senate Court, we learn by the arrival of the China, adjourned on the 13th inst. for three days, in consequence of the illness of Senator HOWARD. Whether the same consideration would have been shown in respect of the illness of a Democrat may very safely be questioned. Senator HOWARD is a Radical, and Radical votes are precious. It is no secret that the heads of the party have been exert ing every possible influence upon their wavering followers, in order to secure a sufficient majority to convict the PRESIDENT. The members of the Lower House even are putting a pressure upon those of the Upper House, and we find the Republican members from Missouri, in the Representatives, have for warded an address to Senator HENDERSON, urging him either to vote for Mr. JonNsoN's conviction, or to withhold his vote. What right the Representa tives have to control the Senators may well be asked ; but this is not a time, in the minds of the Radicals, to stand upon punctilio. The Secretary of the Senate has tendered his resignation, having, it is said, done so with the object of criticising in the newspapers the conduct of those Republican Senators who oppose the PRESIDENT'S conviction. Those Republicans who can stand firm against all this pressure must be men of courage and character, but it is evident from all these devices being thought necessary by the heads of the party that the Managers have for some time past felt little security as to their triumph. At Washington it is reported that in the event of the ..PRESIDENT'S acquittal STANTON will resign his office, so that it is evident that the attack upon Mr. JOHNSON is begin ning to be looked upon as a failure. Meanwhile the pressing interest of the Washing ton trial has thrown into the shade all those ques tions of Southern policy which formerly engrossed so much of public attention. In fact, the fate of the Southern States is in the balance as well as the fortunes of the PRESIDENT, since in reality Mr. JOHNSON'S crime consists of the disposition he has shown to assist and restore the struggling States of the South. The Radicals, disappointed in their schemes of wholesale confiscation of the lands and expatriation of the people, regard as a personal enemy the man who has dared to speak, act, and govern as if the ex-Confederates were still countrymen entitled to some share of their old rights and privileges. Mr. JOHNSON could not, or would not, see the meaning of exhausting the country in a struggle to maintain the Union, and then re fusing to acknowledge that the vanquished were members of the Union. He asked if the Northern argument were correct, and the Union could not be broken, how it was possible to talk of keeping the Southern States out of the Union? The Radicals disliked his way of putting the question, and began to talk about impeach ment. When the crisis is over, and the trial, as we may hope it will be, decided in favour of the PRE SIDENT, the Southern States may have a chance of recovering from their long-continued depression. Even the Radicals, their natural enemies, are be ginning to feel that they can be no longer kept out, and the House of Representatives has passed a Bill removing the political disabilities of 200 citizens of North Carolina, including Governor HOLDEN, and several members elect of Congress and the State Legislature. General GRANT has officially an nounced to the House the ratifications of the new Constitutions by North and South Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, and Alabama, only unfortu nately such ratifications do not faithfully reflect ABYSSINIA. AMERICA. AUSTRIA. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVEN . the real feelings of the people. As for the condi tions imposed, by the House of Representatives on the readmission of the Southern members to Con gress they are really absurd. Neither the Congress of to-day nor the constituencies of to-day can legis late for all future time, and it will only need a fresh vote or additional clause introduced by a new and differently constituted House to reverse the whole of the elaborately prepared constituencies. Some time since great complaints were made, and made with good reason, respecting the too favour able treatment which our criminals received at the hands of the prison authorities. It appeared that men who had broken the laws, and often been guilty of the most ruffianly and dastardly acts, were indulged with such a good and plentiful supply of food as honest labourers and their families could not hope to attain by honesty. Of course no one would choose a prison for the sake of the fare, but it was universally held to be unjust and un reasonable that men who were in any case a heavy burden on the State should be allowed more than the plain necessaries of life. Now, however, the authorities seem to be falling into the opposite extreme, and our prisoners are kept on diet which in many in stances proves absolutely injurious. It is not fair, because a man is to undergo a year's or six months' imprisonment, to break up his health, perhaps for life, and so hinder him from even attempting to gain an honest living. It is not only the quantity of the food which is complained of, but the quality, since, though good of its kind, it is so poor and unsatisfying that men break down under it. In some prisons no meat is given at all, and in others the allowance is extremely short, and there are many of those extras, such as butter, puddings, &c., which might supply its place. An inquest was held last Saturday on a blacksmith who died at the House of Correction after a year's imprisonment, which confirmed much of what had been pre viously known, and wo hope will stimulate the authorities to prompt action in the matter. A man does not deserve to be half-starved because he has embezzled money, and the present state of things is most discreditable. LATEST INTELL CGENCE (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) Secretary Sir Stafford Northcote has received from Sir Robert Napier the following telegram, dated Antalo, May 13, 1868 : "No booty found at Magdala. Some articles which could not have been carried away, except distributed throughout the whole force, were sold by auction, and purchased by officers at high prices, with a view to giving small sums to the non-commissioned officers and privates of the force at Magdala. Total amount will not exceed £3,000. I arrived at Antalo 12th inst., with rear brigade. Shall keep with the rear, pushing on to Zoola all troops as quickly as possible. Fifth Battery, 25th Brigade, Royal Artillery, and Cameronian Regi ment, are now embarking. 18th Bombay Native Regiment have sailed. Stores are being shipped fast.

Troops all well. g 4 ROBERT NAPIER." ARRIVAL OF THE CITY OF ANT WERP. (Via QUEENSTOWN.) NEW YORK, May 16, Noon. Radical meetings have been held at Philadelphia, St. Louis, and other cities in favour of Mr. John son's impeachment, at which resolutions were adopted strongly denouncing the Republicen Sena tors who opposed the conviction of the President. Senator Henderson has addressed a letter to the Missouri delegation, in the House of Representa tives, stating that he will neither resign nor shrink from the obligation of his oath to do impartial jus tice to Mr. Johnson. It is reported that the Impeachment Managers in the House of Representatives are prescribing an investigation to prove, if possible, that certain Senators had been bribed to vote the acquittal of Mr. Johnson. Mr. Woodward, a Democrat, has offered a reso lution to the House calling for an investigation into the conduct of the Missouri delegation in en deavouring to cause Mr. Henderson to vote for the conviction of the President. Mr. Garfield and other Republicans objected, and Mr. Woodward's resolution was not received. The bill admitting the Southern States was, pre vious to its passage by the House, amended, so as to prohibit the nullification of debts due to loyal citizens of Georgia before June, 1865. It is rumoured that the Cacos rebels had captured Goraiv es. The Inman Royal Mail steamer City of Antwerp, from New York, arrived at Queenstown at 12.30 a.m. to-day (May 26), with $249,500 in specie. She landed mails and passengers, and proceeded im mediately for Liverpool. All well. VIENNA, May 26. The Emperor received yesterday at a private audience the Austrian exhibitors who had received prizes at the late Paris Exhibition. In reply to an address of the exhibitors, the Em peror spoke in terms of high praise of the merits of the Austrian manufactures, and stated his firm resolution henceforth, as hitherto, to persevere un falteringly in the course upon which he had entered for the solution of the high mission entrusted to his charge. The Vienna papers state that the Government has authorised the Creditanstalt to redeem shares to the amount of ten million florins, or to reduce its capital permanently to forty millions. May 25 (Evening). The Emperor sanctioned to-day the bills relative to schools, civil marriage, and the position of the different religious denominations. _ _ It is said that the Imperial sanction to these bills will be announced to-morrow, in the official Gazette, and also in the Lower House of the Iteichsrath. ROME. ROME, May 23. Count Caserta, brother to the ex-King of Naples, is to marry Princess Caroline, daughter to Count Trapani. The marriage will be celebrated by the Pope at the Vatican on the Bth of June next. Count and Countess Girgenti, arrived here from Madrid, will leave in a few days for Vienna and Paris. FRANCE. PARIS, May 25 (Evening). The Etendard of this evening says :—" M. Rouher, who had been rather seriously indisposed during the past week, is now perfectly convalescent, and will return to Paris at the end of the present week." PARIS, May 26. The Moniteur de l'Armee publishes a report from Marshal Niel to the Emperor, dated the 20th inst., confirming the excellence of the Chass,epot rifle, and NG, MAY 26, 1868. stating that its incomparable qualities assure to it the first rank among the arms of war now employed. The report adds that the whole of the French infantry are now armed with the Chassepot. The manufacture is actively carried on ; the mean daily number turned out last week was 1,600. BREST, May 26. The Transatlantic Company's mail steamer Ville de Paris, which left New York on the 16th inst., arrived here last night. She brings 350 passengers, $1,400,000, and a full cargo. The Paris correspondent of the Times thus re views the dispute between the Archbishop and the Governor-General : The - Archbishop of Algiers seems to be ambitious of treading in the footsteps of the celebrated mis sionary Las Casas, who laboured so long and so much for the Indian populations oppressed by their Spanish masters, and who undertook to do by peaceful means alone what had been done by vio lence in other quarters, but on condition that no military force should be allowed to interfere with his movements. Like Las Casas, too, the Arch bishop complains of being thwarted in his benevo _ _ _ lent efforts by the authorities of Algiers,. and he now returns to Europe to appeal to the Emperor in person against the military rulers of the colony. I have in a previous letter alluded to the differences that have arisen between Mgr. Lavigerie and the Governor-General of Algeria on the subject of the Arab tribes under French domination, and, as it is one that will be sure to excite attention, it may not be out of place to say a few words more about it. It appears that towards the middle of December last, during the ceremony of blessing a newly-im ported ploughing machine, and after the Arch bishop had returned thanks to the Governor- General, the officials, and the colonists in general for the good that had been already done, he added these words:—" I ask for Algeria larger and more complete commercial, agricultural, civil, and reli gious liberties. I ask for you (the colonists) the spirit of initiation, and of free personal association for all generous enterprises." These words, say the friends of the prelate, roused the enthusiasm of the colonists, whose thoughts and wishes he had faithfully interpreted; but they were far from making the same impression on the military autho rities, who had been always accustomed to consider themselves alone capable of doing any good in Algeria. When the Archbishop, some time after wards, disclosed in all its horrors the extent of the famine which swept away the population by thou sands, his statement presented a remarkable con trast to the official reports of the local authorities, such as they were made known to the public ; and as these authorities had possessed for so many years. the exclusive direction of the native popu lation, they were held to a great extent responsi ble for the present deplorable state of things. It appears that the colonists corroborated the truth of the prelate's disclosures, and the of the Bureaux Arabes, which was the consequence of them, had long been known in Algeria before it was known here. It is undeniable that the Archbishop, aided by his clergy, the Sisters of Charity, and the Trappists established in certain parts of the colony, laboured zealously to mitigate the horrors of the famine and the typhus which accompanied it. One of his acts was to take under his protection 1,400 Arab children of tender age, whose parents had perished, and who, but for him and those with him, would have also miserably perished. The Governor-General, how ever, insisted upon taking them out of the asylum where they had been placed, and distributing them among the native tribes, on the ground that the Archbishop might bring up these children as Christians and French. It was with a view to prevent this measure from being carried out that the Archbishop determined to come to Paris and appeal to the Emperor for succour against his Viceroy. The reasons alleged by the friends of Marshal MacMahon for his conduct are the evils that would be sure to ensue among the Mussulman population from attempts at proselytism ; but the Archbishop has already declared that not only do he and his clergy repudiate all notion of constraint, direct or indirect, and in any form whatever, but that he does not even ask for the liberty of publicly preaching the Gospel, because he does not think the proper time for it has arrived. What he does ask for, he says, is " the liberty of devotedness and charity, hoping thus to gain the affection and the confidence of the natives, and by those means to enlighten them by degrees." lie merely asks to be allowed to found, at his own cost, charitable institutions, asylums, &c., but even these only among the tribes who ask for them, of who may accept them when offered. The opposition made to these foundations does not, of course, arise from an y preference of the Governor-General for the Mussulman religion ; it arises rather from the jealousy of any contact between Europeans and the natives which would be a check on the absolute authority of the BureauxArabes. The colonists have frequently protested against the existing system of these Bureaux, and demanded measures more in accordance with their own requirements ; but their demands have been hitherto without effect ; and the Governor-General has recently in the Senate made common cause with the Bureaux. When Prince Napoleon was, some few years ago, ma de Minister for Algeria, he endeavoured to in troduce liberal reforms in the administration of the colony, but had to give way before the opposition raised against him. I have already observed that the Archbishop disavows all idea of forced con versions ; he declares that his instructions to his clergy are in conformity with these principles; it is affirmed that not a single instance of religious proselytism in opposition to those instructions can be cited. Properly speaking, then, the question is not one of religious proselytism. A writer in the Presse, M. Riaux, observes : ,4 The truth is there exists in Algeria, in the Go vernment regions, a bigoted camarilla who want to maintain absolute power, of which the native system of tenures serves as a basis. This camarilla want, as the means of obtaining their obj Oct, the crystallization of the Arab society, and they would rather see the native races utterly dis appear than lose their hold over them. The sup porters of the system which pretends to regenerate the Arab people by keeping them in deplorable habits of filth, indolence, and selfishness, in the communism of property and in polygamy, are culpable for not recognizing now, after such long experience, the radical impotence of their attempts, and the necessity of having recourse to other mea sures. It is constantly revealed by a permanent hostility to the introduction of the European ele ment in the military territory. They now charge this element with the negative results in which all their attempts have ended, and now that these results can no longer be denied those who support that system persist in prohibiting the presence of the Arabs in the schools of our priests and in the farms of our colonists." The Union says Nearly fifty French prelates have written to the Archbishop of Algeria to give their adhesion to the line of conduct followed by his Grace in his difference with the Governor- General of the colony."

CORRESPONDENCE FROM PAM. ;FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, MONDAY, May 25. The tug of war still goes on between the Government and the Budget Commission. The first insist upon a loan of 440 million francs, the second insist upon reducing it to 400 millions. The Prase says that 440 will certainly be the figure. However, the commissioners bave succeeded in making other deductions. It is not supposed that the report of the commission will be presented until June 10, qo that there is no knowing when the session will be over. It will be the longest for many a year. M. Delisle, the reporter of the Commission of the Senate the Public Meetings Bill, has presented his report. It is a document occupying several columns ; but the long and the short of it is that the Commission do not intend to oppose the bill. Nevertheless, there is likely to be a sharp debate upon it. AL Rouher was seriously ill last week, though not dangerously so. He is now getting better, but the doc tors have told him that he must have some rest. He is at his chateau, and will remain there until the end of the week. Cui bono the new press law? Another press prosecution is announced—this time not in Algeria, but in France itself. The three editors and the printer of the Messager dzc Sud-Ouest have been summoned to appear before the tribunal of Agen on the charge of "exciting to hatred and contempt of the Government." Some more elections to the Councils-General have just taken place. In two instances the Government preserved neutrality ; in the third the Government candidate was returned by the narrow majority of ninety votes. This was in the Toulouse, district where the new army conscrip tion law is so unpopular. The long-announced brochure, " La Paix par la Guerre," has at last been published, or rather the proof sheets have been sent round by Dentu to the newspapers. They were sent to one of the leading German journals a fortnight ago, but the editor refused to have anything to do with them, believing that if inspired at all, the pamphlet was inspired only by the ex-King of Hanover. Here it is en deavoured to produce the impression that the work is a pilot-balloon sent up by the Emperor himself. But the inspiration trick has been played so often that Parisians have ceased to pay any regard to it. Nevertheless, it may be well to give you the substance of the pamphlet. The author sets out with stating that the idea of inevitable and imminent war between France and Prussia has taken such possession of all minds that no one now has the power to remove it. The Emperor has again and again pronounced in favour of peace (here all his vnri.ms utterances and those of MM. Rouber and Baroche are quoted) ; but in vain. The acts of the Emperor have been in honourable accordance with his words. Unfi ez,unately, it is undeniable that since the battle of Saclowa, Prussia has been steadily Pursuing her plans of assimilation and absorption. "The Treaty of Prague is exceeded, the line of the Mein is crossed ; the moment is near when, in the face of such encroachments, which will not be the last, the Imperial Government will be forced, to recall Prussia to the observance of treaties, and demand those guarantees which the conduct of this Power has rendered indispensable. There is only one guarantee which can calm the just susceptibilities of France and the uneasiness of public opinion. This is disarmament. Not merely the sending home of a few men whose military instruction is completed, and who may be back under the flag within a week when wanted, but real and serious disarmament. Everybody knows the •-blitary organisation of Prussia. Without being as per t tas some pretend, it is such as to enable a very consi rable effective force to be placed in the field almost instantaneously. Last year this organisation was extended to all the States of the North German Confederation, and the Berlin - Cabinet has so managed that the South German States will shortly be modelled also after the Prussian military pattern." The writer then goes on to speak of the sacrifices which France has made in order to meet the danger, and declares that the country having done its duty, the Government has to do likewise, and will do so. " Peace, definite and fruitful peace, can come to us only as a result of war. France and Prussia are at this moment like two men between whom there is an un settled affair of honour. So long as they have not met reconciliation or any relations whatever are impossible. Once the combat over, whoever be victor or vanquished, they may honourably and sincerely shake hands." There is very little fear about the result. The war will be s'iort, for lengthened wars belong to a past age. England wll be neutral. Russia will be Prussia's only ally, and even she is not prepared for war. Austria, Sweden, Den. mark, and Holland, " who fears for the future " will be on the side of France. Italy will be neutral at least. But the best ally of France will be Germany itself, for Prussia has by her Protestantism and her aggrandisement alarmed and estranged Catholic and Southern Germany. Finally, the pamphleteer maps out Europe afresh. Poland is to, be reconstituted, and Austria compensated for the loss of Gallicia by Roumania ; and Turkey would really gain by surrendering her fictitious. suzerainty over that country, and would become a real barrier against Russia. All Paris was at Chantilly to celebrate the French " Derby." The winning horse, Suzerain, was the object .4 an ovation such as has not been known here since Gladiateur. His owner, M. Schickler, is said to win, besides the - entries and the Jockey Club Stakes, something like two millions of francs (280,000). The Paris correspondent of the Morning Herald, who has been hitherto the most firm believer in the imminence of hostilities, now thinks that there will be none this year. Ills change of opinion is due to the fact that the navy is quite unprepared for a war, and cculd not be got ready for some months to come. The ships are maimed to a consider able extent by the men registered in the Inscription Mari time, but they are not available for this year, inasmuch as a large number have sailed for the Northern and American fisheries. They cannot return until September or October. Moreover, the correspondent repeats his statement made in a previous letter, that the Mobile Garde has been so far a failure, and that it will take a considerable time to organise. When it is organised France will be able to go to war at ten days' notice. The German Arctic expedition, which the telegraph tells us has sailed, consists of a single ship, equipped at the expense and through the energy of one man—Dr. Peter mann, the well-known geographer of Gotha, though it is hoped that a considerable portion of the money will be repaid to him by private subscription, the King of Prussia h a ving led off with 5,000 thalers. The Germania is a Norwegian brig of only eighty tons, built specially for navigating the Polar seas, and commanded by a Hanove rian. She is to explore the eastern coast of Greenland from the 75th to the 80th deg., and to return if possible before the winter; but she is provisioned for a much longer period. The. Florence correspondent of the Daily News gives some very interesting particulars of the late important votes in the Italian Parliament. For some time previous the deputies had been most remiss in their attendance, and their absence had at last led to strong censures. Before the divisions the telegraph was kept constantly at work, so that every deputy absent from Flo rence must have received at least three telegrams: one from the Government, another from his per sonal friends, and another from the Opposition. It was generally predicted that many of the deputies loudest in their denunciations of the Government would, when the critical division was taken (the ballot being used), support the Ministerial finance. So far as outward appearances went, the hostility to the Government and to the proposed Government measures was never more bitter and determined than during the sitting of the 21st, and never was there shown a firmer determination by the Ministerial supporters to stand by the Cabinet, and not to flinch from their posts until, the bills were passed. It was close on eight o'clock when the voting began. The registration and stamp law was carried by a majority of 89. Then the law on Govern ment concessions was carried by a majority of 103. At last came the really critical division, that on the multure tax. Count Cambray-Digny was his own whipper-in, and might have been seen ten minutes before the vote began sending out friends to the adjoining Cafe del Parlament to bring up to the division whatever stray members might have been found loiter ing there. As deputy after deputy went up to the voting urns a breathless silence pervaded the whole Chamber, and much satisfaction was felt when the result was made known.. Then away the members rushed to their dinners, grim old Guerazzi muttering to a colleague as he strode out of the Chamber, ' Well, the first effect of this tax on hunger, as they call it, has been to give me a terrible appetite.'" It would seem as if after eight years United Italy had at last got a financier. None understood better the importance of Count Cambray-Digny's measures than the Piedmontese, his most bitter opponents, for their constituents are the largest holders of Government securities, and how greatly the fundholders have benefited may be gathered from the fact that when the present Government came into office the Five per Cents. were at 32, and that they varied just before the critical division 'rem 50 to 57, according as it was thought that the Government would be beaten or would win. The unexpectedly decisive victory may be said to be the salva tion of Italy. Count Cambray-Digny has at last sue ceededin stopping that fearfully rapid descent towards the Avernus of bankruptcy which Italy has been making for the last six years. 417 HER MAJESTY. BALMORAL CASTLE, May 23. The Queen drove out in the morning, attended by the Duchess of Athole ; and her Majesty again drove out in the afternoon, accompanied by Prin cess Louise. The Prince of Wales and Prince Arthur went out fishing. Ills Royal highness the Crown Prince of Den mark arrived at Marlborough House yesterday afternoon on a visit to the Prince and P&incess of Wales. The Princess of Wales drove out afterwards, ac companied by the Crown Prince of Denmark. LITERATURE. From • Olympus to glades. By Mrs. Forrester, Author of " Fair 'Women." Three Vols. Hurst and Blackctt. A very charming heroine is Olive Hamilton. She enlists the readers sympathies from the first moment of her introduction. The opening scene of the story is very gracefully described. We find ourselves in one of those pleasant gardens that slope down to the river Thames. Two fair girls are in a little boat preparing to set off on some pleasant expedi tion, when their younger sister Olive hurries across the lawn and proposes to join them. The two elder sisters peremptorily refuse. It is their habit to treat Olive as a child, and to keep her in the background. The boat glides over the tranquil water, and poor Olive with a swelling heart, embittered with a sense of unjust treatment remains behind. It might seem that the heroitie is introduced to us at a somewhat unfortunate moment, but we under stand at once her sensitive, impressionable tempera ment, and the peculiarly trying position in which she is placed. Her sisters are fair and elegant, her mother is " blond and precise," and regards her dark-haired little Olive somewhat like the ugly duckling of Haus Christian Andersen's famous fable. Very bitter are poor Olive's thoughts that bright July afternoon. "She felt as if she could never be happy again. No one loved her—nay, she thought they hated her, and she was ugly !" How a few minutes afterwards one passing incident changes the whole aspect of the world to Olive, and she becomes "gladly conscious of the brightness of the summer day, of the beauty of the tranquil scene, and the blithe carol of the birds," we shall not relate. Her mother never again has occasion to chide Olive for careless dress or gloomy mood• The happiness which the first dawn of love awakens in little Olive's sensitive heart is very tenderly de picted ; and soon afterwards, when her joy is at the full, and she is for the time being (according to the theory of the authoress) high up in Olympus, she exclaims, in the exuberance of her heart, to her old nurse, who had been the confidante of all her childish griefs, " Oh, Greet ! I am so happy ; I do not think I could complain if I never had any more happiness all my life long !" The old woman hastily checks the thoughtless expression, and later on, when her darling is (according to the metaphor) down iu the depths of Hades, very tender and wise is the teaching with which poor Greet endeavours to speak comfort to a heart made desolate. The extremes of joy and sorrow, as experienced by Olive Hamilton, so vividly described in this history, remind the reader of a glimpse of the two widely contrasting portraits of " blsr guerite," when she is kneeling before the shrine animated with such different emotions• But Faust's Marguerite was abased in a deeper Hades, and endured an anguish to which, in all her afflictions, the innocent Olive is a stranger• So very vividly is the great passion of the heroine 0 life depicted, that the reader who has followed her through the various phases of emotion is inclined to quarrel with the termination of the story. We do not like to reveal what that termination is ; but we can assure the authoress that it has disap pointed us. The love of Olive for her husband so beautifully and powerfully portrayed should never have given way to a lesser emotion, and it should, by all the laws of poetical justice, have produced a happier result. Some of the other por tions of the story, indeed the whole career and character of Henrietta French, are singularly re pulsive ; and it is much to be regretted that a novelist who can write so well, and who can so vividly pourtray good characters and enforce noble sentiments, should introduce in her pages passage s from the life of an adventuress, which are neither pleasant to read nor worthy of being recorded. The charming remembrance of Olive Hamilton, hog' ever, will linger in the reader's mind when the de testable Henrietta is forgotten. ROY AL GARDENS, NORTH WOOLWICH• This delightful suburban retreat, which is now under the management of Mr. Charles Morton, of the Oxford and Canterbury Hall, was thrown opal to the public on Saturday last, in honour of her Majesty's birthday, when a day and night festival took place. In consequence of the inclemency of the weather very few persons witnessed the opening' of the fete, but towards 5 o'clock the sun made it° first appearance through the dark clouds, and Prn" . mising a splendid evening the boats and train° from London brought down a large number of pleasure seekers. A concert, conducted bY, Mr. Jonghmans, took place in the coloss al Hall, in which Miss Fitzhenry sang her descriptiv e song of "Launch the lifeboat" most charmingly' and received a perfect ovation from the audience' who having demanded an encore she sang, " Houle , sweet home." Mr. Jonghmans sang " The Mule teer" and " Rule Britannia." Amongst the en . miques Miss Kate Santley, Sidney Franks, and rr• Foster vied with each other who should carry away the palm. At eight o'clock the gardens were bill' liantly illuminated by Duffell, and when th e dancing commenced on the monster platform to Herr Jonghmans' band,lof fifty peformers we might hav e fancied ourselves in Fairy Land. A display ° I fireworks took place on the borders of the lake , concluding with the Flight of Fancy. The corn' pany departed at midnight, having passed a rags' enjoyable evening. We wish Mr. Morton every success in' his new undertaking,' as we feel certain he is the right man in the right place. Great pre parations are being made for Whitsuntide, whel a new ballet is to be produced, the scenery pain ted under the superintendence of Mr. M. Morgan , of the Theatre Royal, Covent-garden.
