THE SUN, G'S COLLEGE. Yesterday the cienuel meeting of the council of this institution took place, at the College, Strand; the Bishop of Lichfield in the chair. The Right Rev. Prelate having briefly opened the proceedings, the report for the past year was read. From this it appearee, that of matriculated stutlente there were in the theological department and preparatory class, 54 ; general lttere.ture and science, 111; applied science, 39; military sciences, 11; medical departmeet, 196; the total, 411. Of occasional students theme were in the medical department, 27; various other classes, 67; total. 94. In the school there were, it appeared, in the division of classics, 321; of modern instruc :ion, 128; total 449; grand total, for school and college, 954. Mr. J. J. Stutzsr, the lecturer on English his tory and literature. had, with the required sanction, founded a scholarship of 301., for the purpose of encou raging the studies which he directed; for which scholar ship, open to all the students of the department of gene ral literature and science, the first election would take place at Easter. As regarded the hospital, the report strongly urged the inadequacy of its ac commodation to the demands upon its space. In allu sion to the medical department, the students were said to have distinguished themselves at the Universities to which they had passed ; and as to the finances, it was stated that the receipts for the current year were 41,327/.; the expenditure, 41,0231. It further appeared, by the accounts laid upon the table, that the gross ex penditure, up to the 31st December, for building, fitting, tarnishing, &c., including 4,0001. still due to the hospi tal, amounted to 165,5841. From shares there had been received, on the other hand, 61,3561., donations, 65,5021., leaving a sum of 31,7251. still chargeable upon income. The report containing these particulars having been adopted, and testimony borne to the excellence of the institution which it described, the distribution of prizes and certificates of honour for the medical department commenced. At this ceremony the Bishop of ' London presided. After a brief but appropriate address from his Lordship, the names of the successful candidates were announced as follows: — SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES—EASTER, 1851. Senior Scholar—S. B. Partridge.

The report of Professor Guy, the dean, on the state of this department, was highly satisfactory. The numbers had increased, the discipline was unrelaxed, the system had worked well. On the subject of the hospital, the Learned Professor spoke at length, and adduced the most convincing statistics to prove the inefficiency of the present building, and the necessity of immediately erecting one more capacious to supply its place. He re• ferred, also, to the distinctions Won at other universities by quondam pupils of King's College, and whilst praising the present generation, urged them to emulate their predecessors' industry and worth. Dr. Jelf, and others, next addressed the meeting, and the prizes having been distributed, thanks were voted to the chairman, and the company dispersed. LONDON, THE GREAT EXHIBITION. Yesterday the excitement within and around the Crystal Palace was immense. There was en overwhelm ing rush of exhibitors into the interilr until two o'clock, when means were taken to check the number ef admis sions. Matters were in a still worse state at the office for the sale of season ticket,?, which remained for seve ral hours is a state of permanent blockade. The gather ing excitement is an unmistakeable warning to the Ex ecutive Committee and to the police authorities to adopt every precaution for the public safety in their arrange ments with reference to the great event of Thuraday. The former body evince a proper anxiety on this sub• ject by issuing the following circular. which we ear nestly recommend to the attention of all whom it may concern:— " OPENING OF THE EXHIBITION. " 1. Visitors are informed that there are numerous entrances into the building on all sides, and they are requested not to assemble in crowds at any one of them. " 2. The issue of tickets having been limited, there is ample room for every person to obtain a good view of the prcees•ion along the nave, and seats have been pro vided for ladics in the nave and galleries. " 3. The police have orders to enforce the following rules:—' To reserve the seats for ladies until half•past eleven; to prevent any person from crossing any boun dary line; to prevent all walking about during the ce remony; to prevent any person Acorn standing on any counter; to prevent ell crowding in any part of the building; to keep the nave of the building quite clear at all times till the ceremony is over; to see that every per son takes his seat in that part of the building for which he has a card.' " By order of the Executive Committee, " M. DIGDY WYATT." Today no exhibitors will be admitted unless they present themselves before eight o'clock in the morning, and the building will be entirely cleared early in the af ternoon, in order that the preparations connected with her Majesty's reception may be completed. Yesterday in the department of machinery in motion, after several preliminary trials, the steam was turned into the building, and the whole of the engines now in position were put in motion; the result was extremely satisfactory; the more so as considerable anxiety has been felt as to the practicability of conveying the steam through so great a length of pipe without destroying its power by condensation. The entire range of steam-pipe, including the ramifications to the various engines, is nearly 3,000 feet, which is, pro bably, a greater length than has ever yet been success fully applied. The steam is supplied from five boilers, placed in an isolated building at the west end of the Ex hibition. Four of these boilers are multitubular, upon a somewhat novel construction, by Messrs. W. G. Arm strong and Co., of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and the fifth is a double-furnace boiler, by Messrs. Galloway, of Man chester. These boilers collectively are equal to 150- horse power, and the steam is carried from them into the building by a pipe of nine inches diameter, thickly coated with felt. This pipe, which may be compared to the main artery of a human body, gradually diminishes in size as it extends through the building, and along its entire range receivers of a peculiarconstruction are placed, which arrest the water produced by condensation, and suffer the pure steam to flow onwards. After passing through the engines the exhausted steam enters another system of pipes, by which it is conveyed into a tunnel out side of the building, and both systems of pipes are placed beneath the floor, where they are entirely out of sight. The whole arrangements of the steam pipes, with their connected apparatus, have been carried out by Messrs. W. G. Armstrong and Co., under the direction of Mr. W. Cubitt, one cf the Royal Commissioners, who more immediately presides over the mechanical department, and of Mr. Itiensmann, the superintendent of that class. Her Majesty and Prince Albert visited the Exhibition yesterday at an early hour, and remained for a long time examining with interest the collections in the dif ferent compartments. There was a violent hailstorm during the day, the sound of which, as it descended upon toe glass roof, produced a very singular effect, but not a pane was in jured by it. We are glad to announce the return to the building of Mr. Henderson, of the firm of Fox and Henderson, who for some time past has b een sa seriously indis posed. His recovery will enable him, we trust, to take part in the procession on Thursday. (From the Times.) As Mr. Alison tells a story better than he makes a speech, most readers will remember his description of Paris in 1314, when the termination of a twenty years' contest had concentrated the warriors and the gazers of the world in tho streets of the French capital. There were Calmucks and Bashkirs from the borders of Asia, still carrying bows and arrows, and clustering in groups aloof from the soldiers of the west. There were Cos sacks from the banks of the Don, fondling steeds nearly as human as themselves, and storing under their capa cious saddles the plunder gathered between the Niemen and the Rhine. There were old Russians of Kutusoff's army, boyish conscripts from exhausted Austria, rugged Lendwehr from Pruss ia, Swedes under French leaders, Belgians and Bavarians under the colours of the allies, and a sprinkling of English uniforms to enliven the mass. The whole world appeared collected before the eyes of the young historian. As he walked along the Champs Elys6es he listened to Asiatic carols issuing from sheep skin tents, while grotesque costumes and barbarous clamours arrested his notice at every turning of the Faubourgs. He may now, if he can shake off the bewildering fumes of Protectionist banquets, see a sight not very dit tereet in the capital or nis own country. We verily believe that no city in the world ever attracted such a motley assemblage as London at this present season. Substituting the guise of peace for the costumes of war, we encounter battalions of all races at every step. What our neighbours term a " fusion" seems absolutely com plete, and on an European scale. From Piccadilly to St. Paul's there pours one continuous stream of bearded visages, pleasantly diversified by peculiarities of cheek bones and headgear. Even the accompaniment of strange music is not wanting, and the attentive listener may catch the national airs of most civilized communities as ha walks along the Strand. The place seems suddenly transformed into the capital of the universe, our own share in the muster being none of the largest. We ap pear, in fact, to have become the least part of ourselves already. To detect a real English face, one has to turn to a cabstand, end feelings of sympathy and compatriot ism are positively excited by the individual on the box. Within this week twice as many Frenchmen will be landed in England as Napoleon ever intended to bring here. The Grand Army was never likely to have ex ceeded 150,000 on the shores of Kent, whereas 270,000 passports are said to have been issued to the depart ments alone, Paris being a separate contributor. It is said too, and from the concurrence of testimony we are inclined to credit the statement, that the attraction of the World's Fair increases instead of diminishing with the distance. Germany is described as being more ex cited than France, and 'Russia than Germany. Turkey has already contributed the most numerous of the offi cial missions, and as soon as the ice breaks in the White Sea (which, we fear, will not be very quickly with such winds as these), we are to receive such a seaborne caravan from Eastern Siberia, that an adventurous American might cross from California by way of Beh ring's Straits. As to our own people, the northern and western shores are to be emptied of their popula tion ; and, if there lives anywhere a being indifferent to the Great Exhibition, he is to bo found, we are sure, in Pimlico or Knightsbridge. " A rush of people to the capital," said Swift, is like a conflux of animal spirits to the heart—a sign that the constitution is in danger." In 1710, perhaps, it might have been so, but we have now outlived our national climacteric, and can indulge our fancies with impunity. After all, this enormous gathering is rather a revival of old fashions than a new design. Our insular isolation is the characteristic of comparatively modern history. When Christendom had but one creed, and Europe but one empire, such congregations were far from uncom mon. Gibbon, in his sententious way, talks of " piracy and pilgrimage" as fusing all the nations of the earth, and the remark is substantially true. More Englishmen had seen Rome in the 15th century than in the 18th, the con quest of Britain by Normens alternated with the conquest of Normandy by Britons,and all ideas were prosecuted in a far more cosmopolitan spirit than distinguished later generations. The ancient cathedrals of the land which our visitors will look at were built mostly by German or Italian Freemasons, with French stone, and were as often filled with graduates from Paris and Bologna as from Oxford aed Cambridge. Oar population itself is a compound of half-a-dtzen races, and yet by a strange contradiction w e no sooner became an adult nation than we r, pudiated our kinspeople, and shut ourselves up from the world. Our Queen was the first English Sove reign since Henry VIII. who ever shook hands with her next-door Honareh; and she is now the first to collect such a company as might have been invited by Richard Ceeur de Lion or Edward 111. There is no denying, however, that we shall feel our selves " pretty full," and indeed we look upon the festival as a curious trial of the capacities of modern ingenuity. Nothing in the Crystal Palace will be so signal a menu nsent of popular industry as the entertainment itself. London is the most populous city in the world, even takes alone. Suburbs included, we muster 2,500,000 souls. It is not perhaps too much to expect that, first and last, as many more will come up from the country. This makes 5,000,000, an equivalent to the entire population of England but a few generations ago. Then come our visitors—a legion whereof the 300,000 Frenchmen already reported may be taken as the unit. Altogether; the least we can expect is, that London, one day with another, will always contain two persons for every one of those usually present in the height of the season. Now the height of the season, as many of our readers know, seldom leaves much margin in the way of elbow-room; in fact, it is hard enough to get along whenever a fine day or a gala show brings the m ultitude abroad. What are we to do when in every street, in every house, in every railway, in every steamer, and in every " bus" two will stand for one? How are ad the wants of all the company to be satisfied together. The vision is rather alarming perhaps at first, but, like other prospects, it dwindles in dimensions on a closer view. if we do our best we shall not find much difficulty in getting on. We have had good notice, and era euite prepared to be pleased. Our visitors are ha bituated to such doings, though on a somewhat smaller scale. They can pack thems elves, as some of our to an compass; they are ac every-day life c b u o s a t r o d m in e g d -h to ou p s n e b s i k in n a o s w s , em in n s i m ies al a l nd of promenades, with a modest allowance of comforts at home. They have a larger stock of civility than our selves, and carry it about them in a more negotiable forth; they are more pliable, and less morose. If there is a disagreeable passenger in an omnibus or in a steamer, Ire is not, we are sorry to say, likely to be a foreigner. It will tide ,her be th e Frenchman, nor the German, nor the Dane, nor even the Turk, who refuses to give and take, or to to contribute his share to the hilarity and good feeling of the company. The substantial part of the en- ANNIVERSARIES. The custom of holding anniversary festivals seems " to be going out of fashion, like m an y other old ways. Few, however, can have forgotten that one of the days of the past week—Wednesd a y, the 23d of A pril—was a day to be held in peculiar honour in England, as the anniversary of the (reputed) birth day of Shakspere. Curious that that day should also be St. George's Day ! The Society of Antiquaries met to elect their office-bearers for the ensuing year; and, we dare any, the fact tiat it was Shakspere's birthday was not forgotten among the toasts at their dinner. At other meetings, also, in many parts of the country, the circumstance must have been remembered, as well as that, on the same day last year, Wordsworth died. Cant mingles with all things —and most dreadfully of all with dinner speeches; but we like the fashion of keepi n g anniversaries. By-the-by, talking of birthdays, does anything in the character and genius of a man depend on the month in which he was born? Is t here any sig nificance in the fact that Shaksperea first in fant gaze on the world and on Warwickshire happened in the " sweet and showery " spring month? We don't know; but it would be difficult inductively to make any thing out on the point. Barns was born in January; Milton in December; Goethe and Napoleon in Au gust; Wellington in May; Cromwell—a very different kind of person from Shakspere—almost on the same day in April as Shakspere; in fact, all sorts of men have been born in all sorts of months. Yet a deep fellow mialat make something of the subject; and wo advise some deep fellow to do so.—Leader. AYLESBURY ELECTION.—A petition has been pre sented from Thomas Bradford, complaining of this election. PARRICIDE AT WESTMINSTER.—An inquest was held yesterday evening before Mr. Bedford, at the Westmin ster Hospital, on view of the body of Richard Judd, aged 65, who expired in that establishment on Saturday morning, from the effects of desperate injuries about the head. The evidence of the several witnesses, given at the Westminster police-court yesterday, and on the previous examination of the accused (Frederick Judd, the son of the deceased), hav ing been repeated, the jury, after two hours' deliberation, re turned a verdict of "Wilful Murder" against Frederick Judd. CAUTION—BANK NOTES.—We understand that some forged Bank notes fur 5/. are in circulation. The imita tion is very good, but the water mark has only the word "Bank," instead of the words Bank of England." FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT ON THE MERSEY.—On Saturday night a serious accident occurred on the river, by which one man lost his life and another was placed in con siderable jeopardy. The steamer Sylph, from Rock-ferry, which left the slip about half-past nine o'clock, near the centre of the river passed under the stern of a fiat, and came in contact with a small punt rowing in the direction of Sea combe. There were two men in the boat, but, owing to the darkness of the night and the flat being in the way, the cap tain of the Sylph was unable to see her till after the colli sion took place. The two men, in their alarm, endea voured to climb up the stern of the steamer, but finding nothing to hold by, lost their footing and fell into the water. One of the men, named Francis, got into the wheel of the Sylph, and had not the engine been stopped almost instantly, he would, together with his companion, have inevitably been lost. Captain Chadwick, as soon as he was able, let himself down into the boat which had been occupied by the men, and at length succeeded in rescuing Francis. The other men, named William Walker, a boatman. of Seacombe, was drowned. No blame is attached to the offi..ers on board the Sylph. —Liverpool Albion. Awrur. DEATIL—On Friday an inquest was held at the Half-way House, S ou thwark-lane, on the body of Mr. George Merriman , aged 27 years. The deceased was a pub lican at East Boldon, and also carried on the business of a blacksmilt at East Bolden and Ryhope,. Being unfortu n tely given to habits of intemperance, he some time ago got into bad company at Sunderland, and was robbed of 1501. During last week he had been drinking to excess, and on Wednesday night, about twelve o'clock, he was seen knock ing at the door of a public house. Early on Thursday morn ing, a noise similar to that produced by a body falling, was heard by the.worlsmen employed at the bottom of the shaft of the A pit at Monkwearmouth Colliery. They imme diately hastened to the spot, and found the body of the de ceased in a fearfully mutulated state, and literally dashed to Pieces.

CHURCHES FOR THE RAGGED.--There are schools for the ragged, but we see no churches for the thousands of ill-clad people you observe standing at the public-house d o ors during the hour s of divine service. We that have suffered want know that if our apparel is not such as we could wish, we feel diffidence in approaching the church or chapel, where none but well .clad people are to be found. N ow we believe that there are many wearing fustian on the Sabbath dav who would be glad to attend public worship if the churches were free altogether, indeed, expressly constructed for the neighbourhoods where required, and for the class of people living in them. Let us set the warmth, comfort, and godliness of the church against the glare and false stimulus of the public-house. Let not many thousands of the present generation go out of existence without the sound of the Gospel. The model lodging-houses provide for the comfort of their bodies; forget not their immortal soals.—Builcler. WEDNESDAY EVENING, tertainment we shall doubth ss manage well enough. In s) far as concerns tough beef, heady beer, and blazing port, we shall be forthcoming with our dues, and the good sense and steadiness of English officials may be securely relied on for preserving order without obtrusive ness of interference or dictation. A good deal of the rest depends upon ourselves and the weather. East winds, it must be contested, do not improve the national temper, and showers that set a Frenchman dancing under cover send an Englishman home blaspheming in a cab. But we must try this season whether we cannot be a little better conditioned. The whole world is in our streets, and it rests with us to show by our behaviour that general good-fellowship and civility are not incom patible with free institutions, insular independence, and just national pride.

TO THE SECRETARY OF THE BRADFORD REFORM ASSOCIATION. (EVERY MONDAY AND WEDNESDAY.) Sir,—On Monday the 28th, the House of Commons met again alter the Easter vacation , The subject of the day was the &end Reading of the Income-Tax, which was carried with comparatively little debate, without a division; the understanding being, that it was to be de bated piecemeal in Committee. This does not look as if there was any great strength against the Tax. Men are beginning to find out that the unpleasantness of a direct tax, is with sen sible men a reason for desiring to have taxation shifted into that form. The man who wants to have as little taxing as ho can, will surely not desire to see the taxes iu the form to which the least general resistance will be made. To direct taxes there will be a direct resistance and a stoat; to indirect, au indirect resistance, a divided, and a feeble. Which of the two would a wise man chuse? The Protectionists, into whose hands the game as far as concerns discussion in Parliament, has been almost entirely thrown, made good use of the opportunity. - Their last talented reinforcement, fresh frcm the field of victory, with an advocate's skill introduced Free Trade, and announced it to have " signally failed," which was allowed to pass by default, there being in fact none of the admitted leaders of Free Trade present to answer. When men in this manner throw up their briefs, it would be wonderful indeed if the op ponent did not triumph. lam told the Free Traders in the metropolis are beginning to take alarm at this with drawal of defence ; and the active measures the Protec tionists have in hand, are Rot unlikely to give a fillip to the feeling. For my own part, I should be over whelmed with shame in the recollection of the many a stout struggle I have helped in my time to make on this great subject, if I omitted any opportunity of declaring that the danger is imminent, palpable, gratuitous, for no reason but be cause men would have it so. The years that have inter vened since the removal of the Corn Laws, were a pre cious season, for friends to tread out the fallacies which had once been so effectually scotched, and watch for new ones, and for enemies to put the pieces of the snake to gether as far as they were able. The enemies have pro ceeded coolly, ably, wisely, to do all that men could do to rally a weak cause. The friends who were to run against theta, have gone asleep under their laurels as the hare might, and now it is odds if the tortoise is not at the goal. If a powerful party were allowed for half a dozen years without contradiction to go about maintaining that the less a man had the more he could eat, the public would believe them. Human annals cannot show a great cause so needlessly thrown away. If there is any saving it, it must be by the immediate revival of the old Free Trade spirit, and by rallying round, and not tin ning down, the Government which is engaged to its support. It is your day of grace, and you may use it if you will. I demand of all who may think I hese any charge on this matter, to note my continual protest, and acquit me of inattention to their concerns. On Tuesday a prolonged debate on the supply of London with water; ending with bringing in a Bill. After which the House was soon counted out. I am, Sir, yours very sincerely, AN OLD REFORIIER. London, April'3o, 1851. THE FOOT GUARDS.—WINDSOR, TUESDAY.—This morning, at a quarter to nine o'clock, an exprees from the Horse Guards arrived at the Infantry Barracks, Sheet-street. for the marching of four companies of the lst battalion of Grenadier Guard to Knightsbridge Barracks, and in less than three-quart of en hour 372 men in marching order, under the command of Colonel Goulburne, were seated in the carriages of the Great Western Railway Company, en rout e to Paddington. The skeleton of six companies of this bat talion, consisting of 250 men. under the command of Colonel Astle, are left to do duty at Windsor Castle. FRENCH DRAGOONS IN LONDON.--A proposal has been made to the Government to send the band of the 9th Dragoons to London, during the Exhibition, as a specimen of the military music of France. M. Sax, who is the ma nufacturer of the greater number of the musical instruments ased by such bands, was the first to originate the idea, and has made an application to the Minister of War on the subject, which has been warmly supported by M.

April 29. * The St. Lawrence. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. CHRONICLE.—At this Easter time the invention of theatrical managers is racked to find new entertainments ter a " used up" public. New performers in old charac ters, or new characters represented by old Performers, are held forth in taro to ceteh stray half-crowns. The tastes of all are consulted, according to their reepective preferences for light comedy or tragical melodrama. Drury-lane has not been wanting in its functions of ca terer to the public amusement ; and Azad the Prodigal and The Robbers have alternately allured the playgoers of the metropolis. The late hours of fashionable life have materially interfered with the legitimate drama ; and it was, therefore, a brilliant idea of Mr. G. F. Young's " National Association" to give a morn ing performance, which should combine in one re _ presentation the spirit of both those pieces. Regardless of expense, a corps was collected from thesountry, b y whom The Prodigal and The Robbers have been simulta neously reproduced with great applause. The landlord and tenant, of course, sustain appropriate parts in a composition for which it would have puzzled Aristotle himself to find a name. Strange enough it seemed to us to find ourselves in the midst of a modern 0. P. riot in Drury-lane, where the managers were the assailants, and the public the victims. Yet so it was—none were so clamorous for the Old Prices as the tenants of the green-room. The melodramatic company of which we speak are courageously regardless of omens, for the tickets for the performance were issued from the South Sea House; and, as we plodded wearily through the mud to Threadneedle-street, we called to mind the touching reflections of Elia on that cenotaph of an exploded bubble, and pondered on the strange fatality which had led a kindred ghost to haunt those congenial courts. However, to proceed to the performance. The curtain drew up, and displayed the Duke of Richmond in a chair. We cannot flatter the managers on the mice en scene of the piece; for, con sidering that the company were meant to per sonate a body of distressed and ruined agricul turists, we never saw anything so out of character as the jolly faces which saluted us on every aide. The vociferous delight with which the recital of the direst calamities was hailed was a fault in artistic composition which should be re medied before the next performance. We are sure that Mr. Lumley would never allow Lablache to act Count Ugolino at the point of death from inanition. his Grace of Richmond informed the company that he did not care for ridicule—an insensibility on which we silently offered him our heartiest congratulations; for we felt that it was the real strength of his position, and that he was right to entrench himself behind it—nor could we fail to admire the beneficence of nature, which, through the whole range of animated life, gives the feeblest individuals their appropriate defences. The only other opening remark which was thought necessary for putting the whole affair on its proper footing—apart from a confident assertion that all " re spectable operatives" aro impatient to pay more for their bread—was a reference to the probable necessity there would be for giving the manufacturers a thrashing. This invitation to a bout of social singlestick—a game, per haps, a little dangerous for dukes to begin upon—took wonderfully, and " brought down the house" in a style that would have warmed the heart of Vincent Crum mles. We were a little surprised at seeing none of the Parliamentary leaders of the Country Party on the stage. Lord Winchilsea was the ostensible repre sentative of the Upper, and Colonel Sibthorp of the Lower House. We should, however, mention that Lord John Manners acted fualeman to the cheers, with a white pocket handkerchief, from an upper box. Mr. Stanley, we fear, is still suffering from indisposition; and Mr. Disraeli was understood to be preparing for the debate on the " water supply." But Lord Stanley's ab sence was not accounted for. Lord Winchilsea, of course, acted the " heavy father" in the business; and, with the consistency which has marked his whole poli tical career, he attributed free trade to Catholic emanci pation, and energetically appealed to ancestral wisdom in support of a policy that dates from 1815. MISS TALBOT. (From the WeeAhj Dispatch ) We rejoice heartily to see that the Lord Chancellor has referred proposals of marriage with Miss Talbot, made on the part of Lord Edward Howard, M.P., sou of the Duke of Norfolk, and at present Vice-Chamber lain to the Queen, to the Master, for examination. Dr. Do)le, through Mr. Rolt, exp.( vises his concurrence in the application, and the lady's approbation is stated. Now, what a thorough, unanswerable proof does this fact give us of the real state of Miss Talbot's mind, and of the coercion which has been exercised upon it. A for, weeks, and the young lady who had sued to be ad mitted as a postulant, against Hendren's dissuasions, is so reconciled to the world as to accept a suitor, nod hope to become a bride. How clear is it that she had been environed by factitious influences, all the work of one conspiracy to secure the prey of her fortune. In what fine relief do the lies and hypocrisy of Hendren, and the reservations, if not equivocations, of the Ab bess come out. How all the little childish devices with which Roman Catholic dupes are amused, come to light ; how mean in intellect as well as poor in morality, do the tricksters appear! We take the oppor tunity of recurring to the Religious Helms Inspection Bill. The pious influences of the Dublin priesthood have been getting up a memorial to the Queen on the subject from the ladies of Dublin. By way of enforcing the clap-trap about desecrating the religious solitude of nunneries by the visitation of the magistracy, the clause in the recent measure for preventing the sale of arsenic to women is appealed to, as if her Majesty and her whole sex were especially insulted by being denied the privilege of purchasing poison. In our opinion, indeed, the two classes are most unhappily similar. What low arts are descended to, to excite or justify resistance to an obvious duty of the Legislature, the protection of in experienced girls from fraud, from superstitious terror put in action against them by the villany of their sham protectors. And we urge again, and most especially, by the example of Miss Talbot, the need of making the civil interference effectual by applying it before the taking of the vows. We have already argued the point atlength, and have invoked the example of Catholic Piedmont for the accuracy of our views. Bat here is the example be fore our own eyes. Here is the girl who, had she been once betrayed into the oath, would evidently never have found strength to recede from its obligations however fatally she might have felt their intolerable chain. Here is the example of the way in which the minds of Catho lic young women aro formed by conventical education— s dead body in the hands of a living man. The educa tion itself should not be without watching from the State where there is no honest and natural guardianship at hand to secure it from beccming the most noxious form of tyranny; but if, in the mass of public neglects, this one must pass, we must claim a final chance for the victims, a real opportunity for the forming, as well as for the deducing of free will, before life and property are handed over to the mercies of beings equally fraudulent and ignorant, and whose best conscience is only to cheat the human understanding into passive acquiescence in their own narrow and debasing routine. CATLIN'S INDIAN GALLERY. This intereetieg collection has just been renovated and re-cpened. Its well-known curiosities consist of a bellicose-looking collection of North American Indian chiefs, arrayed in real costumes, with the addition of landscapes, portraits, and costumes. The landscape!, perhaps not exactly intended to be works of art, are nevertheless valuable illustrations of unexplored regions, and seem remarkable for their fidelity of, execution. When the Chinese Exhibition opens an additional interest will be afforded in the comparison of the two opposite stages of bar barity ; first that which struggles for its ex istence amid toilsome privations, and with cun ning hands; the other the type of gorgeous and self contented spendour. It is pleasing to follow the rude impulses which led these American Indians to decorate their dresses with their quaint figures and to inlay their clay pipes with tigurants. Those figures of wild Indians carved under the bowls of the " calumets of peace, seem the picture of happy contentment; evidently the artist had himself thoroughly relished the fumes of the pipe before be thus indulged his fancy. The instru ments by which mothers torture their little infants t , o , render them worthy the denomination of "Fl atheads, are perfectly exquisite—thumb-screws fade in the com parison. Skins, dresses and weapons, cud other accou:re meats, arrest the attention.

SPORTING NOTES; No XLV. SCRAPS FROM CHESTER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—Throughout a stormy day, which strai3gly re minded one of lntrepid's year (1845), the racing yester day, in strong contrast with that at Newmarket last week, was excellent. Lord Waterford opened the ball in the Grosvenor Stakes, by winning a pretty race, by three quarters of a length, with his Irish daughter of the Star of Erin, dam by Tearaway, yclept Kick-up-the-Dust, 3 yrs, 6st; Mark Tapley, 4 yrs, Bst 51b, second; The Cutler, 3 yrs, Est 31b, a good third; Alonzo, 4 yrs. Bst 51b, Spot, 5 yrs, Bst 121 b, and Vanguard, 5 yrs, 9st 1 lb, beaten two or three lengths. I have but little he sitation in asserting that my fancy animal for the Mostyn Stakes (Lizzy) would have won, and easily too, had she not fell before the start, and been knocked down afterwards in the race by the favourite (The Greek), who, as I predicted, would not be nearer than third, the actual position in which he passed the post. Paddy Bird won by a neck, from Bethgelert. Neither Young Hawthorn or Lord Egliuton's colt rate. Hurry Scurry won the Chesterfield Stakes very easily, and bowled my judgment over in Coto. My remarks con cerning the Palatine Stakes were verified to the letter. Merry Peal, under Marson's guidance, won very easily; Tightwaist second. As I imagined, neither Vermuth. Iris, or Hesse Romberg were started for this stake, Avia leaving been beaten yesterday in a3O sovs. sweep stakes, Alderman Copeland's Drill, or Mr. Stebbing's Guardsman, will clear the winning post first to-day for the Roodee Produce Stakes. The Cup, I expect, will be decided as I have already announced. Kick-up-the iu the Sixty Guinea Guineas. The race for p t r h o e b g ab u i e li e t n y , , s Dust Plate the Triennial, to-morrow, will lay between Bethgelert ; will, t nr. all s and March Bird, or Merry Bird, whichever, of the latter two Mr. Osborne may feel disposed to start, The field for the Dee Stakes will be composed of Badejoz, Hyppolytus, The Deceitful, Colsterdale, Sir Rowland Trenehard, rnuth, Taghnitee, Moun tain Deer, The Black Doctor, Knook Kuoll Queen Bee (d), and Lightfoot. The Mountain Deer is reported to be queer, but, notwithstandin g , must go for him or Vermuth to win; with Lightfoot, Hyppolytus, and The Black Doctor to fill the third, fourth, and fifth places. The Chester Welter Cup to Joe-o'-Sot or Cauriri. On Friday, for the Fourth Ces trian Stakes, I shall vote, without hesitation, for The Black Doctor and Vermuth to fill the first two places; Colsterdale, lanthe, Guardsman, and Drill, in the rear. The Winal Stakes may possibly fall to Mr. Lister with Lizzy, Tightweia second, and Truth third. The Cheshire Stakes to Snowstorm or Sauter-la-Coupe. The Free Handicap to The Pilot or Forester, former for choice; Queen Bee close no. The Eaton Stakes to Burry Scurry or Tightwaist, former for choice. This concludes the bill of rare for Chester. I am, Sir, yours, Sec. THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF. April 30, 1851. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CHESTER RACES. CHESTER, MONDAY NIGHT, 12 o ' cLocx.
