(ti‘tore the L)RD CHANCELLOR.) IN RE BELOVED \VIERS. His LORDSHIP judgal of in this appeal, the ergomehts to which occupied the Court two days last ss reported in ,rat cettLane. The p,titi.tn was ort-seat,Pd by certain inhabitents of three pdr , siles in the cutiaty of Giouct,ster, against an ehq!tion mad by toe trustt,rs of a charity foundt , d by Mr. formerly a b.-oeti:ed clergyman in that county, tor tbe education of e yoith belonging to either of the three parishes. The election last made by the trustees tell on a youth named Jilce, against which it was ob jt-c,ed to by the petitioners that ho was not duly quah tied, and that the trustees ought to have elected another candidate, named Gate. The LuRD CHANCELLOR said, that having attentively gone through the affidavits, he could find nothing which would justify rim in coming to the conclusion that the trustees could have made any other election than that which they had made. He therefore thought the petition should be dismissed, and that the trustees should have their costsallowed from the estate. Order accordingly. iiimEr v. DEWIIUEST. ES LORDSHIP wen proceeded with the arguments in this case, which was apart-heard appeal from au order of the Vice-Chancello:, directing inquiries to ascertain the extent of the lie6iiities of William Dewhurst on an agreement by which he guaranteed the payaient of a composition of Bs. in tao pound on the debt due by Isaac Dewhurst to the Halifbx Joint-Stock Bank. ROLLS COURT.-(THIS DAY.) MORGAN V. MORGAN. The arguments in this case, which was an application for a rehearing, were resumed this morning. There had been a decree olyained in the cause in the year 1846, Gia the crnstruction of a settlement of property upon the widow of the testator, who was m.:de the tenant thereof for life, and the question tow submitted to the Court was, did such a disposition of the property entitle her to the enjoi , lne nt of it it specie. VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Vice Chio,c,llor KNIGHT BRUCE.) His Honour was occupied the wnoie morning with short causes, none of which were of general interest. (Before Lord CRANWORTH.) His Lordship disptsed this morning of a number of unopposed petitions, and wee afterwards engsged in nenring mo , ions. (13,.-for o Vice• Chancellor TURNER) No business of iaportance %as brought before his Honour to-uay. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(TEITS DAY.) (Sit ings in amen.) CRIMINAL INFORRATIoN—QUEEN v. KAYE AND ANOTHER. In this case a rule nisi tied been obtained calling upon the defendants to show cause why a criminal information shouid not be filed against them for having published a libel in the Wesleyan Times, reflecting upon the morel character of the Rev. W. H. Clarkson, a circuit preacher, belonging to the Wesleyan body. Mr. Chambers, now appeared to show cause against the rule, and it appeared from his statement that, some time ego, Mr. Clarkson was stationed at Derby, where he fixed his domestic es athlishment, and hal a young woman named Charlotte Herrons in his service as housemaid. Now this, young woman, just before the meeting el Conference, last year, gave birth to a child, of which she alleged Mr. Ciark eon was the father. This circumstance came to the knowledge of the Conference, and they eirected an in quay to he inetituted into the scatter, and ultimately deed. d t bat no imputation rested upon either the ceuduct or the ehiirac er of the Hi-serend Gentleman. It transpired, however, that Mr. Clarkson himself took a beetling part in conducting the inquiry, aud there was reason to suppoie that the young woman had been inti midated into giving a contradictory ace, uvit 01 the pater nity of her chtlii, but the Wesleyan Times imported the case into its columns, and insisted that it ought to be publicly investigated. This public discussion of the matter ultimately led to its being carried before the megistrates sitting at Leamicgton, where the young woman underwent a lengthened examination, and related the history of her criminal connexion with her Reverend master. She declared that the Rev. Gentleman was for months contemplating her ruin before he accomplished his purpose. She lived with him for nearly three years, the family consisting of the Rev. Gentleman himself, his wife, and his wife's mother; and it wee while the latter were absent from home that the Rev. Gentleman succeeded in effecting her seduction. Before the imagist trates, however, no confirmatory proof of the connexion was adduced, as the Bastardy Act requires, and the case was therefore dismissed. Now the articles complained of were commentaries upon this case; and it was con tended by Mr. Chambers, that, inasmuch as they related to a topic which came fairly and legitimately within the province of a public journalist, they could not be held to be libellous. The principal defendant and chief proprie tor of the newspaper was a manufacturer at Hudders field, and he took no part in its management, but neverthe less, having fully investigated this case he had no reason to feel that his paper had any way been misconducted. Tne editor had dune no more than discuss the conduct of a public character, arising out ef a public question; and since he had strictly confined his comments within the legitimate limits of newspaper controversy, this gen tleman, tlho wee most interested in the proper mileage meat of the Wesleyan Times, thought it would be unjust to call upon him to answer a criminal information, though be was quite reedy aud willing to meet the inquiry in. any other sh , pe. Mr. HaiecE, who was on the same side, said he had only one word to add to the argument of his Learned Friend, and that was simply this:—Mr. Clarkson, he apprehended, had brought this matter into court for the sake of publicly contradicting the charge which had been made against him. Now, having had that oppor tunity, and the defendants themselves beine , willing to admit that of their own knowledge they knew nothing against the private or mural character of the Reverend Gentleman,it was hoped the Court would decline to make the rule absolute. . The LORD GRIEF JUSTICE said the Court would not put Sir Frederick rhesiger, who appeared fur the plain tiff, to the trouble of replying, as they felt that the rule ought to be made absolute.. The jury would then say whether or no the liberty of the press had been mali ciously abused by these publications. That was the ques tion propounded by the Learned Counsel who appeared for the defendants, and as a jury was the only tribunal that could answer it, he would say no more, so that the ease might go down fur trial without prejudice. Rule absolute accordingly. COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.) The business transacted in this court during the morn. ink was not of an important nature. EXCHEQUER.—('r HIS DAY.) (Sktting in Banco.) ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. LONDON DOCK COMPANY. Atter disposing of some unimportant mutit Ms, the Ch a rt preeended with 'he part-he-.rd case of the At tortiey-Generai v. tie Landon Dock Company. Sir FITzaoY KELLY resumed his arguments on behalf of the OctendantP, observing that as the directors and other functionaries connected with the company had been, by the whole evidence, as well as the express ad mission of the Attorney-General, relieved of all per ,onsl imputations or of any accusation of a wilful inten tion to violate the law, his only object in appearing be tore their Lorcliqups was to suggest that a plain and in telligible constiuciion should be put on certain Acts of Parliament for the guidance and protection of the com pany in the future administration of their extensive es tablishment. The Learned Counsel then entered at con siderable length into the particulars of the case, and to the different Acts of Parliament, the provisions of which he contended were of a very general and uncer tain character. The address of the Learned Counsel was likely to oc cupy the greater portion of the day. MARLBRO'-STREE r -(THIS DAY - in T itt a T u to L N l .

Within bow-shot of the western extremity of the Crystal Palace, there stands on the Kensington-road a mansion not unknown to fame in the worlds of lite rature and fashion as having been for several years the residence of the late beautiful and accomplished Countess of Blessin.gton. It has now passed into the hands of another and still more celebrated owner. There, has ALEXIS COQUORUM Rax set up his vene rated standard. There he wields the culinary sceptre with "no brother near the throne." Celsa serlet Eolus arce ; but far more grateful and substantial blessings does the potentate of Gore House, Soyer the Superb, dispense, than were wont to issue from the stormy caverns of the Liparmau God. Availing our selves of the Soyerian courtesy, we had the pleasure of assisting on last Saturday at an inspection of his new estabdshment, and frankly confess that however sanguine the expectations which bad been created by a knowledge of the singular taste and talent of tee eminent artist, they fell far short of the reality. If the (nighty structure of Paxten be confessedly the reoester marvel of the metropolis, assuredly the Symposium of Soyer is the next most mark• wor'hy of " t'ae lions of Louden." Let no Exhibition visi tor of the slightest pretence to taste omit paying his homage at this delightful shrine, and if, after the en jeyment of all that is calculated to please the eye in the mansion and its spacious grounds, he can bid farewell to such Elysian scenes without indulging in some of the luxurious viends and beverages which are disposed in tempting profusion on the numerous tables, all that can be said is that he must be a wight of either singular stupidity, or matchless, but unen viable, self-control. Of a visit to Gore House it may be truly and appropriately said, in the words of the accomplished Homan,— " .rEque pauperibus prodest, locupletibus mque, ff,que neglectum pueris seuibusque nocant." "Ti it enchanter's wand," exclaims the glowing author of " The Book of the Symposium,"—" The enchanter's wend of Alexis Soyer, like that of Mer lin, will triumph over geographical limits, and laugh the restrictions of space to scorn. From all quarters of the globe, civilized or uncivilized, will his visitors come—the doors of the Symposium will be thrown open to universal humanity. The lightning-winged locomotive, the heavy vetturino, the clumsier dili gence, the steamboat, the calque, the junk, and felucca, will bring their myriad visitors to the gates of Gore house. Cosmopolitan customs should demand Cosmo politan cookery; and it is by no means an exaggerated expectation, we think, to imagine within the walk of the Symposium grave and lively Frenchmen, expatiating over their potages and fricandeaux; phlegmatic Turks, discussing plll,f and hachis; mercurial Persian , =, enjoy ing their sherb,t; sententious tipaniards, luxuriating Hirer of a podrida; wich. awake Americans, consuming johnoy c..ltos end canvas-backed ducks; pigtailed Chinese, devouring their favourite stewed dog; meta physical Germans, washing down prodigious quantities ut sauerkraut with oceans of rheinwein; swarthy Rus sians up to their eleS in caviar; Comas calling fir mere train oil; Tertars, swallowing quarts of mare's milk; and New Zealanders—no, not New Zealanders, for wao could form any idea of the horror and dismay which would be caused by some ebony-skinned and boomeranged chieftain demanding ' baked young woman" for two, and a cold buried missionary' to follow ?" - - Advance, courteous reader, through the vestibule, seamed with golden lightnings, and passing through the Atrium, the walls €f which are covered with a novel architectural ensemble, turn to the right, and enter "La Salle du Parnasse," formerly the aessington library, now a dining•reeen, re splendent with mirrors, marbles, white, green, and gold. Admire, too , t he adjoining and mag nificent apartment, "La Salle des Noces de Danae," with its ceiling of perforated arabesque, a pale green, parseme with many . hued flowers, and profusely enriched arevisible he ca with t gold,l clear rblue tints while of a through ltper forationss summer sky. Half pendent from this plafond are eight globes of silvered glass, and on the walls are seen descend ing showers of tears of embossed gold and silver and rich gem-like hues. These are the princip s al room upon the ground-floor, and they present a superb dis play of decorative ingenuity. The walls of the stair case, by which you ascend to the upper rooms, are painted with a most entertaining medley of grotesque end monstrous-headed figures, painted, or rather sketched in fresco, comprising many biped celebrities, and quadrupeds hitherto undiscovered by zoologists. This very clever and bizarre production is due to the brain and pencil of Mr. George Sala. Pass through the tri-coloured "Avenue des Amours " into "La Chsmbre Ardente d'Apollon," a circular apartment glowing with crimson, gold, and amber, thence into the " Grotte des Neiges Eternelles," glistening with brilliant masses of stalactite-like ice, the effect being enhanced and the expanse enlarged by mirrors, with their edges artistically concealed by pendent icicles. Striking is the contrast presented by the " Vintage Palazzo," a saloon which suddenly transports you to the sunny skies and deep blue waters of the shores of Italy, seen through the vine-clad arches of a trellised gallery. The "Door of the Dungeon of Mystery" now opens, and admits you to " Le Boudoir:de la Val here," a delightful chambre a toucher, with the in terior " mil de Bead," a perfect alcove of festooned flowers, surmounted with a sky of delicately-veiled rosy clouds. Last remains to view "Le Pagode du Cheval de Bronze," or "The CelestiallHall of the Golden Lilies," which would gladden the soul of a Mandarin of the first class in the flowery land. Too much praise cannot be awarded for the rich and varied taste displayed throughout the interior by Mr. Adams and his assistants. In the gardens, which extend over some eight acres, you will find various objects of interest, flower-beds, statues, fountains, the "Impe netrable Grotto of Ondine," &c.; but the most con spicuous and important is the vast " Baronial Ban quetting Hall," not yet completed, but which we predict will be inferior in popularity to no other feature, when hung with paintings and resounding with the strains of unseen musicians, or rather dimly seen in an elevated orchestra, viewed through the nebulous medium of mysterious clouds ; and " Le Pavillon Monstre d'Amphytrion," four hundred feet in length, and capable of affording prandial accommo dation to fifteen hundred persons at half-a-crown a head. The table from end to end is covered with a single monster tablecloth, which we vouch to have beheld unrolled to its full extent thereon, and which is certainly the greatest triumph of textile skill ever ' submitted to the public. And now re-entering the house, after a " whet" at the American bar, a cobbler, shandy-gaff, or the like, sit you down, in one of the luxurious salles a manger, and contemplate the admirable arrangemmt of those chefs d'ouvre of gastronomy. Taste but a morsel of this pie, and, as it melts upon your palate, if you do not bless the Great Artist with internal fervency, you are a grace less dog, a flinty-hearted monster. Lucullus, were he in the flesh, would weep tears of ecatacy at such inef fable deliciousness. Fortunate it is for Soyer that he is no " light-weight," or of a certainty Olympian Jove would again dispatch his feathered minister to bear him to the skies, like Ganymede of yore, and Ambro sia would be at a discount among the immortal ban quetters, when once they had made trial of his une qualled skill. The wines, too, are of a recherche cha racter, from humble port—no " black-strap" by the way, but the genuine blood of Lusitania—to Tokay. As these blissful reminiscences arise, our pen becomes inadequate to convey a due impression of what must be personally enjoyed to be adequately ap preciated, and adds but this=that, were we the foun tain of dignity and honnr, we would forthwith insti tute a new Cnivslric order, and nominate Alexis Soyer Grand Master of the Chapter of Knights of the Golden Gridiron. THE OPENING OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

THE RE-OPENING OF LONDON -BRIDGE.—It is de finitively arranged by the committee that the re-opening of Longon-bridge for general traffic shall take place on Tuesday next. The paving of the bridge has been completed since Thursday last, but the approaches, namely, King William street, City, and Duke-street, Southwark, are undergoing a similar process. A large number of workmen have been employed early and late, so that no delay may take place. Carriages from the City side are, of course, allowed to pass over the bridge.

Delegates from the principal, ports in the kingdom , , • -- EVENING ARRIVAL OF 'TIE TURKISH FRIGATE FEIZ A BAARL SOUTHAMPTON, APRIL 27.—The Ottoman steamer of-war Ftdza Baari (Skimmer of the Sea), flag of his Highness Vice-Admiral Moustafa Pecha, Captain Saii Bay, arrived at Spithead on Friday night, and early on Saturday morning, after saluting the Turitieh squadron lying at Spithead, came up to Southampton. She is,the baurer of a cargo of Turkish contributiens to the Great Exhibition in Hyde-park. On anchoring she finale dotely exchanged salutes with the town battery, after which the United States frigate St. Lawrence fired a sa lute, which was returned from the Feiza Baari. The arrival of this steamer has excited considerable interest, as the Feiza Baari is the first Turkish steam vessel that has ever visited England. She sailed from Constantinople on the 6.11 inst. called at Gallipoli for bread, and at Malta and Gibraltar for coals. Just prior to reaching Malta a defect was discovered in one of the cranks, and a stay of three days had to Ise made while the dockyard engineers were fitting a strengthening strap. The vessel el.() remained two days at Gibraltar, so that the actual tient) trader steam from Constantinople is only a lade above fourteen days. The Feize Baari was built at the Turkish dockyard in Constantinople. She is abut 1,600 tons burden, full ship rigged, end is a favourable arid creditable specimen 1 / 4 )f the proficiency in naval architecture to which the Tu , ks have attained. Her fittings: generally and cabin arrangements are very beautiful and commodious. The engines of 450-horse power, on the douhc-cylinder and direct acting principle, are from the factory of Messrs. Meudalay, Sons, and Field, and propel the vessel at a rate of from eight to ten knots an hour, according to wind and weather. The armament is a very heavy one, as the vessel is pierced for and mounts 44 guns, vjze -2 long 10-inch iron Paixhan guns upon traversing car riages upon the upper deck, and 42 long brass 32- pounders on the man deck. On the present occasion, in consequence of carrying cargo, she has on board only eight of the 32-pounders and the two Paixhan guns. The complement of men is about 320 The efficers, sailors, end firemen are all Turks, but there are three English engineers. The Feize Baari has brought a large number of dis• tinguished functionaries and officers of high rank in the Turkish service as passengers. The following are some of them,—viz., his Highness Gernaledin Pacha, brother-in-law of the Sultan; his Excellency Constantine Mussurus, the new Ambassador from the Sublime Porte to the Court of St. James's, who is accompanied by his two sons and suite, and by M. eeteeto Vogoridee, Coun cillor of the Legation; and Zsi Effendi, Secretary to the Embassy; also Salib Effendi, Reouf Bay (son of Rifaat Pacha), and Hisan Bey, members of the office of the Amedji; Ismael Bey, Equerry of the Imperial House hold; Emir Bey and Nissip Bey, members of the Divan's Correspondence-office; Ilasseim Veh bi Effendi, advo cate of the Tidjaret; ilassen Bey, member of the Coun cil of Nata; Rifest Effendi, Secretary of Accounts; Lefli Effendi, member of the Correspondence-office of the Minister of Commerce; Djevedet Effendi, Secretary to the Minister of Commerce; together with several other Turkish subjects who had received the permission of the Porte to accompany the delegates and to make the tour of Europe. This morning Mr. H. D. Jourdain, the Ottoman Con sul at Southampton, went on board the F&za &sari, and was received with a salute of seven guus—a similar salute in his honour also being given by the American frigets. Arrangements were then made for the disem barkation of the Turkish Ambassador, who, shortly after one o'clock, accompanied by his suite, left the ship under salutes of seventeen guns from the Feiza Baari and the St. Lawrence. On lauding on the docks, no salutes were fired by the town on account of the Sabbath. His Excellency left at three o'clock for Lon don by a special train. There are on board this steamer 207 packages for the Great Exhibition. They are to be instantly sent on shore, and will be forwarded to the palace of glass by Mr. Jourdain, the consul, who is charged with that task by M. Zolarab, the Turkish consul-general, London, who is also the special commissioner of the Sultan to the Royal Commissioners. The greater portion of these goods will in all probability he sent off to London on Monday evening and the remainder on Tuesday, so that although from their late arrival they will not be fully displayed in that portion of the building allotted to Tur key by the day appointed fur the opening, yet there is no doubt that the most striking objects of interest will be unpacked and temporarily arranged in time for her Majesty's state visit on Thursday next. The goods con sist in great part of silk stuffs from the Government factory, Turkish cloths, sword blades, fire-arms, em broidered stuffs, carpeting from Melemen and Koniab, the whole being of great beauty and value. The num ber of specimens is said to be 4,870, and their value rearly 100,0001. About 5,000 square feet of surface will be required fur their display. The Sultan has taken a great interest in the whole details connected with the origin and progress of the Great Industrial Exhibition in London, and has been most anxious that the country of which he is the su preme ruler should be adequately represented. This disposition is plainly proved by the determination to dispatch to England on a special mission so large and fine a vessel as the Feiza Baari. Previous to their ship ment an exhibition of these articles was held at the Hotel of the Board of Commerce, in Constantinople. The Sultan visited and minutely examined the majority of the specimens. His Highness also paid a visit to the steamer before her departure, and remained upwards of four hours on board. His Excellency Sir Stratford Canning, the British Ambassador, also gave a grand banquet to most of the distinguished personages whose names are mentioned above, prier to their emoarkation for England. After discharging his cargo, it is likely the Feiza Baari will be sent round to Woolwich to have the neces sary repairs effected to her machinery, and will then, we understand, return again to Southampton and make some stay here. Excepting the characteristic red Fez cap universally worn on board, the dress, uniform, and appointments of the officers and seamen do not present any features of the ordinary Turkish costume, which appears to be slowly disappearing in the military and naval services of the Sultan. There are but few turbans to be seen on board, and those we:understand are worn by the priest and some few other rigid Mahometans. Several of the officers speak the English and French languages fluently. Every respect and attention will be paid to the com mander and officers of the Feize Baari by the munici pality. His i liighness Vice •Admiral Moustafa Pemba, his Highness Gemaledim Pasha, and the officers of the ship, have accepted an invitation to visit the Mayor of Southampton (Mr. Richard Andrews) at his country seat, near Winchester, on Tuesday next, and on Wed nesday the mayor and corporation will pay an official visit to the frigate, on which occasion an address will be read, and the whole of the officers invited to a grand banquet, to be given at the Town-ball in their honour by the cor porate body of Southampton. Personal civilities have been interchanged between the commander and officers of the Turkish and Ameri can ships of war, and Captain Sands, of the St. Law rence, instantly offered to the Ottoman Vice-Admiral every facility and attention that could in any way facili tate and promote the object of the visit of this fine ship of war to England. FATAL ACCIDENT TO.: 11 0— ; G R ANVILLE EGERTON. --We regret to state th a t been received of the untimely death of this young officer have bee received its town. Mr. Egerton was a midshipman on b oard Meander, 44, Captain the Hon. Henry li'er Majesty's ship was at California, receiving treasure for conveyance to eppel. The frigate England. Mr. Egerton and a party of officers went on a shooting excursion, when Mr. Egerton's gun i burst and killed him on the spot.

Mr. Egerton was in his 17th year, A WINDFALL FOR FEARGUS O'C night (Friday) an inquest was held in ixenden, on the body of Mr. W. Haigh, who formerly resided of late has lived at Mixenden, and was found at Halifax, but uund dead in his wa bed on Wednesday morning. The case s one of an ordi nary nature, aod only derives interest fromthe fact that the deceased some time ago made a will constituting Feargus O'Connor, Esq., his sole heir. The value of the property is said to exceed 2,0001. — Halifax G uard jun. MEETING OF EXHIBITORS.—A great deal of dis satisfaction has been expressed by a lar:e body. at exhibitors at the arrangement by which they themselves employing assistants, are to be excluded from the Exhibitionate lhe completion of their fittings, unless by the purchase of tickets. A meeting was held on Friday, and, by adjournment, on Saturday evening, at which several influenti a l gentlemen were pressnt, and discussed in warm terms the alleged in justice done to the contributors. The mayor of Sheffield occupied the chair on Saturday night. The speakers were very unanimous, and the following resolution was agreed to non. con.:—" That this meeting app oint a deputation to wait upon the Royal Commissioners, and respectfully to urge upon them the justica of admitting exhibitors on the first day of May an t during the continuance of the exhibition: "l'he Royal Commission will meet to - day , when it is hoped the question will be amicably settled. M ARR IAGE OF MISS TALBOT. — It i s understood that the marriage of this young lady will take place in June, and that it will be performed at the residence o' the Countess ,S,"ewburgh, in Wilton-crescent. Lord Edward Eitzalan Howard, the betrothed husband, is 34 years of age, and pos sesses a good property in his own right. He is heir also to the Glossop estates in Derbyshire, value 2,700!. per annum, and now in the possession of his father, the Duke of Norfolk ; it, is rather strange that the property in question, as well as the large property held by his Grace in Sheffield, came into possession of the Howard family by the marriag e of a former Duke with a scion of the noble house of Talbot, the holders of the ancient earldom of Shrewsbury and Waterford. Lord Edward Howard is a very strict adherent to the tenets of his religion, as his brother (the Earl of Arundel and Surrey) is well known to be. It is also well known that the Duke o f Norfolk himself is but nominally a member of the Roman Catholic Church, and that when in attendance on the Queen he seldom on Sabbath absents himself from worship according to the Protestant religion. THE GAUGE ACT.—We understand that th e Rar way Commsssioners, who threatene d some time ago to compel the Great Western Company to lay down the narrow in ad dition to the broad gauge on the part of the Oxford and Rugby Railway between Banbury and Oxford—acting, as it was stated at the time, on the advic 1 of the law otlicers of the Crown— have signified their intention of not carrying out their previously expressed purpose, thereby, for a time at least, permitting one gauge only—the broad—to be laid do An, notwithstanding the Act of Parliament, if our me- rnory is not at fault, stipulated for the laying down of both gauges. Without saying anything of the public in crest that may be involved in this matter, or what Parliament may say about it, we can only express our astonishment that a public body like the Railway Commissioners should so little know their own minds, or a proper course of action, as to threaten proceedings one day, and the next day find themselves compelled to retract their threat.—Herald. HONESTY AND GENEROSITY —Oa Saturday two 51. notes were restored to their rightful owner by a poor but honest man, who keeps an apple-stall at Guildford. The loss had been previously announced by the town-crier, but as the number of the not s were not known the recovery of them was consi 'ered hopeless. The old man's honesty was rewarded by a present of two sovereigns. --a Vast accession to his capital 4 this season a the year. " Away ! the Corner' is deserted ; Away to Chester's ancient walls! A thousand screaming trains have started; 'Tis neck or nothing—Pleasure calls; From every ingle of our islands, From east and west, from north and south, Frmn Walmer to Glengarry's highlands, From Galway to the Bull and Mouth, Away they go 1" TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sen,—A parting word with Newmarket before pass on to Chester. The race fur the Newmarket Stakes re sulted somewhat after the style I fancied it would. Sir Joseph Hawley's chance with the Confessor, although deemed a certainty, was nothing of the kind; my remark of Thursday last, when I wrote—" It is considered a foregone conclusion in favour of Sir Joseph, but there has been more impossible things accomplished than Midas or Boo's winning"—was realized by Midas clearing the winning post a head before the Confessor; who, by the bye, has about as much chance of carrying off the Epsom laurels as a torn cat. The Chester. one of the most important, if not the first of the Spring Meetings, commeuces to-morrow, as usual, with the Grosvenor Stakes of 10 save. each, &o. To close and name this evening. After which, as the play-bills have it, follows the Palatine Stakes for fillies, Bst 71b each, with allow ances and penalties, which has converted the stake into a species of handicap, though by no means a fair one. For this stake Tightwaist, Bst 71b—Truth, Bst 71b— Drill, Bst 41b--Manilla, Bst 41b—Merry Peal, Set—Con fidence, Bst—Lchia, Set—The Incurable, fist—Hurry Scurry, Bst—and Queen Bee, Bst. may possibly be found at the post. The appearaucs of Iris, tiesso Homburg, and Vermuth, is not very probable. If either of this trio were totshow, they would capsize my calculations, which are foundsd according to the above list very con fidently on CONFIDENCE and MERRY PEAL ; with Hurry Scurry and The Incurable third and fourth. The entry for the Mostyn Stakes of 10 sovs. each, with 100 added; for two years old colts and fillies, &c., is un commonly dark, only one or two out of the lot having run; however, Lord Eglinton's colt, Lizzy, Don Carlos, and Young Hawthorn, form the quartette destined, in my opinion, to send forth the name of note; YOUNG HAW THORN or Lord Eglinton's colt for coice, with Lizzy close up, and Don Carlos fourth. The Chesterfield Stakes seem to me to lay between Oleander, Sat Easily Bell, 7st, and Scar, Est 121b1 the first named choice. On ednesday the performances commence with the Corinthian Handicap, to close and name this evening. Then follows the Roodee Produce Stakes, which Harp sichord will win. Then comes " the great go" of " the meet," the Chester Cup; the field fur which may be selected from the following list:—Russborough, 4 yrs, Bst 6.b—Woolwich, 5 yrs, Bst—Vatican, 5 yrs, 7st 101 b (d)—Duc an Durres, 6 yrs, 7st 51b—Sauter-la-Coupe, 5 yrs, 7et 51b—Langton, 5 yrs, 7st 51b (d) —The Italian, 4 yrs, 7st s.b—Clarissa, 5 yrs, ist 31b—Spot, 5 yrs, 7st 31b—The Knight of Avenel, 4 yrs, 7st 3ib—Mon tague, 5 yrs, ist 21b—Rhesus, 5 yrs, 7st—Sir Richard, 5 yrs, 7st—Seaman, 4 yrs, Mt—Haricot, 4 yrs, 6st 12ds —Damask, 4 yrs, Est 101b—Lady Eden, 4 yrs, Est 101 b (d)—Brother to Dough, 4 yrs, Est 101 b (d) — Prior of Lanercost, 4 yrs, Est 10lb (d)—Mickleton, 4 yrs, 63t 10. b—colt by Gladiator, 4 yrs, Est 101b—Cauriri, 5 yrs, Est 6 lb—Strap, aged, Est 41b—Eva, 5 yrs, Est 41b— Panope, 4 yrs, 6st 4lb (d)—York-you're-wanted, 4 yrs, 6st 41b—Wallflower, 5 yrs, 6st—Tarn Wadlin, 5 yrs, 6st (d)—The Flying Gout, 5 yrs, sst 121b—Made Safe, 4 yrs, sst 121b—Brington, 4 yrs, sst 101 b (v d)—Sprite f, 4 yrs, sst 101b—Hesse Homburg, 3 yrs, sst 61b—The Black Doctor, 3 yrs, sst 41b—Nancy, 3 yrs, 4st 121 b Knook Knoll, 3 yrs, 4st 81b (v d). As I remarked on Friday, and in direct opposition to " the talent," I again repeat to-day THAT BOTH RHESUS AND RUSSBOROUGH WILL BE BEATEN! They may run up into the third and fourth, or even second and third places, but nearer, in my humble opinion, they cannot get. They have both been backed for immense sums, aro both considered by their respective parties certainties; but both these pots, I think, will boil over. Rhesus never was better in the whole course of his existence, and, according to Treen, is fit to run for a man's life. Russborough is perfec tion, and to a certainty will be found in the front rank ; perchance, may find his way into the War Eagle position of 1848. The public, in these in stances, must judge for themselves ; my judgement is against the R's. I cannot fancy how Russborough, with Bst 61b up, is to muster steam enough to finish with; and with regard to Rbesus, lightly weighted as he is, I think The Italian and The Knight of Avenel can give their year to him, and it strikes me the odd five and three pounds difference in the weight likewise; I may be wrong—about fifty hours will tell the tale. The following form the batch, in my opinion, that will be found in front at the distance, in, viz.:—Russ borough, Woolwieh, Backbiter, Vampyre, Duc.an Durres, The Italian, The Knight of Avenel, Rhesus, Haricot, Strap, Hesse Romberg, and the Black Doctor. From this lot I should pick Vampyre from the old 'tins, The Knight and The Italian from the four years old, and The Black Doctor from the three years old; and take the ITALIAN or VAMPYRE as the absolute winner; with Rhesus, Russborough, The Knight, and The Doctor, heading the rusk. I shall postpone my comments on Thursday's and Friday's races, with the exception of the Dee Stakes, until to-morrow. For the Dee, out of forty-eight nominations, the following list includes ull that are likely to figure in the race: — Osceola, Jack Leeming, Hippolytus, Colsterdale, Ver muth, The Black Doctor, Mountain Deer, Knook Lightfoot, and Entre-nous. That awful bugbear of the ring, Lightfoot, is reported to be en route to the scene of action. This animal, looked upon by so great a portion of the public as the almost certain winner of the Derby, will, I think, have to content himself with third honours for this stake; one or two of the runners, in my opinion, being quite gocd enough to give him the go-by in this mile and a quarter spin.

TATTERSALL'S-SATURDAY. _ _ The betting turned almost exclusively on the leading favourites for the Chester Cap, nothing having been done on the Derby to justify a quotation. Rhesus was very much out of favour in the early part of the after noon, and after a slight rally closed at 7 to 1, offered to a "monkey."

It be a commodious building, with a large extent of frontage, and will Win' inarld a tine view of the whole of the running ground. A large space will be enclosed in its front for a betting ring; in addition to which there will be an enclosure for saddling. Much to our regret, 'Jo/;ever, the old course over which the Brighten Stakes and Cup are run has been for about a quarter of a mile of its middle entirely cut to pieces by the troops of the Bth lluz,oars having been drilled directly upoa it, and which the race com mittee have no means of pi eventing:. A good deal of money will have to hi expended by them upon this por tion of the running ground prior to the races. THE FRI3ILEY GANG. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—l should not :venture to intrude on your valu able space, did I not feel assured that by so doing I should set right a very incorrect statement which ap peared in your columns, being the concluding part of a paragraph beaded" The Friraley Gang," aid occupying a lengthy space iu your paper of the 23d or e4th inst. It is as follows:—After speeking of the apprehension of Isaacs at Frome, " That Mr. Morten, tte Superinten dent of the Tunbriege Wells police, succeeded i n tracin g to the poseeaeion of the prisoner a valuable diamond ring, gold chain, &c., which were a portion of the pro perty stolen from the Miises Farnecombes in December last. These articles were on his person, in the house where he was staying. Mr. Morten immediately seized them, and the friends of the prisoner forthwith applied to the County Court at Frome for a summons against Mr. Morten tor 10!. 103., alleged value of the goods." Now, Sir, this statement is wholly untrue. In contradiction to it, I beg to state the facts of the case, which are as follows:—Some of the Frome constables having been apprised that Isaacs, the chief of this no torious gang, was in the neighbourhood of Frome, ap tdied to Mr. Witcombe, a respectable tradesman, for the hire of a hone and carriage, that they might search for their man. They succeed in apprehending him at Norton, and brought him back to Frome in the vehicle. The next morning a diamond ring and gold chain were discovered lying on the met in the carriage., Witcombe immediately notified this at the magis trate's office; and to several of the constables, who ad vised him to keep the articles till he was in a position to give them up to the proper authority—a mode of proceeding not, however, approved of by Air. Morten — who came again to Frome on the Sunday following, ob tained a warrant to search Witcombe's house for the stolen goods, which he alleged were concealed there, and proceeded to execute it at ten o'clock on the same evening. Mr. Witcombe thereupon gave up the articles, and on the following day appiied for a summons against the officer, not for the value of the stolen property, but to call in question a stretch of power on the part of the police officer, which he considers most unjustifiable. From these facts it will be evident that the above state ment is quite without foundation, and as it has been co pied by several of the provincial papers, I shall be much obliged by your inserting this letter. I am, Sir, yours, &c. Frome, Somerset, April 26, 1851. A. M. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Lucrezia Borgia was performed on Saturday far the first time this season for the deblit of Mademoiselle Alaimo in the character of Lucrezia, and seldom have we assisted at a debilt so completely and so deservedly successful. Mademoiselle Alaimo is a Sicilian, a n d her native city Palermo was, we believe, the scene of her earliest triumphs. The verdict of the Palerme. tans, who are excellent critics, was ratified by that of several of the principal cities of Italy, and is now confirmed by that of the habitues of her Majesty'e Theatre, who on Saturday night . , testified by the enthusiasm of their applause, that they thoroughly appreciated the genius of Madlle. Alaimo. This lady is very young, and possesses mobile and most expre sive feature:;, and an eye which, like that of poor Edmund Kean, flashes fire in moments of excitement. Iler voice is a pure soprano, of immense poWer, great compass, and perfect evenness, there is not through out its whole compass to be f,.tand a single weak, faulty, or defective note; it is admirably cultivated and well under command. As an actress she ranks fore most amongst the first. Never have we seen the terrik tirst act, in which Lucrezia has to exhibit almost every passion of the human heart in its utmost intensity, more beautifully rendered. Her indignant demand fur vengeanc e on her insulter, her horror at finding that it is the death of Gezinaro that she hes been de manding, the intensity of her agony during the whole of the poison scene, and the imPassioced haste with which she f orces Gennaro to take t h e ant i dote, thetook aud:ence completely' by storm, and at the ecaielmilon she was called 'on and received with salvoes of applause. Her vocalisation, too, was . admirable, and the far- famed trio was rendered by Alaimo, Gardoni, and Leblache, in a m anner peifi,ctly faultless, and was, as a matter of cour, , e, rapturously encored. In the last act she w as magnificent ; there was something sublime in the sneer with Vhich she welcomed her poisoned guests to wart ce ua in Ferrara ; and the t rans i t i on - . from fiend-like triumph - to agonising d espair when she discovers that among the guests is G ennaro, was the very perfe.ction of, acting. In the concluding scene her impassioned agony was heartrending, At the conclusion she was called on the, times, and was applauded to the echo. St ec has achieved a complete, and what is better still, a genuine success. Gardoni rppeared for the first time this season as Gennaro; his voice, which is as exquisitely sweet as ever, appears to have recovered its power since last season, and his health seems alto gether to hare improved. He sung and acted admi rably. The Alfonso of Lablache was 'magnificent, and we prefer iyis " make up" of Saturday n ight to that of last season ; the black velvet robe is much more becoming than the scarlet and ermine. .Madlle. Ida Bertrand threw such spirit and energy into the character of Mateo Orsini, and sung the Brindisi with such finish and joyous ness th at we rea ll y did not feel the absence of Alboni. Mdlle. Ida Bertrand was encored in the Brindisi, and was deservedly applauded throughout. The chorus was full and perfect, and the opera was admirably placed on the stage. Amongst the noble and distinguished individuals honouring the performance with their presence we noticed the following:—His Serene Highness P r i nce Edward of Saxe Weimar, his Grace the Duke of Wel lington, his Excellency the Russian Minister, hi s Excellency the Swedish Minister, the Marquis and Marchsoness of Salisbury, Marchioness of Aylesbury, Marquis of Donegal. Marquis and Marchioness of Sligo Laid the Ladies Browne, the Earl and Countess of Wilton, Lady Elizabeth Egerton and party, Earl Mounteharles, Countess of Lichfield, Earl of Aboyne Earl Bruce, the Count do Merino, Bi g ht Hon.

EXHIBITION OF THE SOCIETY OF PAINTERS IN WATER COLOURS. The exhibition of the Old Society of Painters in Water Colours opens to-day, at their Gallery in Pall mall East. The art of painting in water colours is an art peculiarly national. It was in England that the water colour sketcher first became a painter, and England alone has hitherto produced pic tures in water 'colours. It was, therefore, with regret that we found in this year of grace 1851, when all the artists of all nations will be assembled in London, and when most assuredly the exhibition of water colour paintings will be one which they will scrutinize most narrowly that, Cattcrmole, if not the very greatest, certainly one of the greatest, of our painters in water ' colours, does not exhibit. Copley Fielding, however, the veteran el' water odour painters, is there, and has c:intri buted numerous pictures of various sizes and ou various subjects, but ell treated in an admirable manner, and all to be recegnized as unmistekeable Copley Fielding F, without referring to the catalogue. S. Prout, too. comes out in great force, and gives us several views of the mediaeval buildings and streets of France and Belgium, painted with the most exquisite finish. We had almost despaired of ever finding a successor to Sam Prow, ha', if we mistake not, Carl Haag is destined to follow him 'laud lunge intereallo; his view in .Nuremburgh is a very fine work. Mr. T. M. Richardson contributes a beautiful picture of Como, which, taken as a whole, is perhaps the finest landscape in the exhibition; the beautiful I warmth of this picture contrasts forcibly with the chill ing " Frost Scene on the Bath Canal," by Mr. C. Bran white. No one can look upon this last without shivering. Gastineau has a fine view of Peel Castle, Isle of Man; i and F. W. Topham contributes a beautiful picture of " Highland Smugglers leaving the Hills with their whisky." Mr. F. Taylor gives us " A Ftte Champetre ' in the time of Charles II.," which need not shrink from a comparison with any of the chef d'ceuvres of Wattesn, and Mr. J. Callow contributes several brilliant sea pieces. Altogether the exhibition is very good. PROCEEDINGS UNDER THE CENSUS ACT.—On Sa turday, at the Richmond Petty Sessions, Mr. Ebenezer Fernie, an independent gentleman, living at the " Casino," Kew-green, was summoned, under the Census Act, for hav ing refused to deliver up the census paper, or schedule, by which he was liable to a penalty of not more than 51., nor less than 2/. Proof of the delivery of the paper at the defendant's house, and his refusal to deliver it up to the collector who demanded it, having been given, the bench retired to consider their decision in private, and the result was the dismissal of the summons, only two of the magis strates being for a conviction. BLACK EDITORS.—Two of the leading newspapers in the British West Indies—the Morning Journal in Jamaica, and the West Indian in Barbadoes—are oened and edited by gentlemen of colour. The proprietors and editors of these journals are, moreover, distinguished members of the legisla tures of their respective colonies. TURN-ouT or BRICKLAYERS' LABOURERS. —ln consequence of the reduction of the duty on bricks, many . of the brickmakers at Altrincham, near Manchester, have in creased the size of their moulds, without giving any addi tional wages to the labourers, whose work is increased there by. The latter have therefore turned out, and considerable dissatisfaction exists among them. THE MARQUIS OF SALISBURY'S SOIREE.—On Sa turday evening the Marquis of Salisbury gave a grand soiree at his mansion in Arlington-street, to which his Lord ship, as Lord-Lieutenant of Middlesex, invited the magis tracy of the county; amongst whom were present, H. Pow nall ,Esq. ;B. Rotch, Esq.; T. Whiskeu, Esq. ; T. Amyott, Esq. ; &c. ; as, also, Mr. Alderman Lawrence and Donald Nicoll, Eaq (late sheriffs) who have recently been included in the commission of the peace for such county.
