Mr. Paxton says, turn it into a winter garden and promenade ; the vist will only be twelve thousand pounds per annum, and the building may be made to pay this without difficulty, and Mr. Paxton Is right, if it were opened oae day a week at a shilling admission, and thrown open free the other five ; there would be thousands prefer the shilling day, and the admittance would create ample hinds. There would be a consideration for the enjoyments of the million in this project, and there should be no condition but cleanli ness and order to entitle any body to use it. As working men dress now, nobody can object to their admission, since E. MOSES and SON have reduced the price of clothing to meet the means of the poorest class, every one can dress well. It is not merely the cheapness, but the quality also, that enables the working man to drew well. One suit of clothes will serve him as well as half a dozen used to last, and look better all the time; look at all the varied classes who daily Visit the Palace, from the man of fashion to the labourer, and the great ,majority dressed appropriately in the clothes made by E. MOSES and EON, which, for taste and style, durability and neat ness, cannot be surpassed by anybody at double the price. Those who visit the Great Exhibition are strongly recommended to come, from the samples of dress exposed there, and view the extraordinary collection of clothing at the Monarch Mart of E. MOSES and SON, in Aldgate, where tke matchless specimens of rich embroidery are now on view gratuitously, and the public are invited to inspect such a gigantic stock of clothing for all classes as was never before got together. The mart is an exhibition of itself, ant visitors are con ducted through the apartments, which are explained by the at tendants, and which must be seen before a person can form an idea of their extent or their splendid decorations.

Fashion may be said to be a part of educational accomplishment, and to foster and cultivate this .s woll. HYAM and CO.'S attire for hlldren, and Youths of growing years, cannot be spoken of but in terms of high recommendation ; and the proprietors reel assured that they are only quoting the language of numberless buyers. when they say that this description of dress, as sold by them, is super-excellent in point of cloth, cut, workmanship, and general excellence. The term "Juvenile." as applied to Hyam's Dress for the Young, is not sufficiently s p e c i fic , considering that the proprietors' stock is adapted to all ages under maturity. Much is saved in pr'ce by purchasing those articles of Hyam and Co., who never omit to ingraft a principle of cheapness to a system of undoubted superiority.

DOCKYARD.-Mr. Peter Morgan, first-class clerk at Woolwich Dockyard, lately promoted to the first class, has been appointed store receiver at Woolwich, vice Laws promoted to be storekeeper at Sheerness, vice Bla dock Devonport, vice Jenkins deceased. These arrange ments will make a promotion of a first-class clerk. We believe Mr. Rodwell Willcocks, of Deptford, is the se nior second-class clerk is the service. His promotion, therefore, would not only be an act of equity and justice to Deptford Dockyard, on which establishment there is at present no first-class clerk, but it would give the juniors a chance of promotion, from which they have hi therto been barred. The vacancy is a Devonport one, it should be remembered, and if not filled up by clerks at that port, the promotion ought to go by seniority of all the clerks in the dockyard service. The Dasher, steamer, Commander Le Febvre, ar rived at Portsmouth from Sheerness to be paid advance, and will prooeed to Jersey for the protection of the fisheries. Avon, steamer, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday morning from Plymouth, bringing up a draft of men from the Trafalgar, 120, which were put on board this vessel at Spithead. PORTSMOUTH THURSDAY.

The Belvidere, 38, has been brought down to-day to have her jurymasts taken out, which are to be shipped by the Pique, 40, and the latter is to be navigated with them to Pembroke to be lengthened. The Victoria, 110, is to be brought from Pembroke to this port to be fitted for the ordinary. The Oberon steam-vessel has been taken out to-day to try her machinery. It is reported that part of the crew of the Trafalgar will take her to the Mediter ranean. It is reported here that the Lieutenant-Governor of this garrison (Lord F. Fitzclarence) has had conferred upon him the Coloneloy of the 36th Regiment. We merely give the rumour as we have received it—we must add, somewhat incredulous of its authenticity, not being aware of any war services of Lord Frederick's which could entitle him to the boon usually conferred upon ve teran soldiers, except, indeed. the gallant action with the conspirator Thistlewood I—Times. PLYMOUTH, JULY 23.—Her Majesty's brig Express, Commander Feed, fitting here, goes out of harbour on Monday next, the 28th inst., and will shortly proceed to the West Indies. The hay Anchor, lately launched in this yard for ser vice at Bermuda, will sail for her destination, under con voy of the Express. .

The Lisbon squadron, under Commodore Martin, lying in Arcos-bay, experienced very blowing weather for the fortnight previous to the 19th inst., the latest date of intelligence from that station. The Arrogant, 46, screw-steam-frigate, Captan Robert S. Robinson, during a gale, parted her best bower cable, and the buoy of the anchor having been previously lost by the violence of the wind, it occupied her nearly a week of sweeping and creeping before Bh9 recovered it. The Arrogant was to leave Lisbon for Gibraltar on the 22d inst. SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS. Yesterday evening a flower show, on an unusually ex tended scale, took place at these gardens, the greater part of the plants and fruits exhibited being chiefly those belonging to the Chiswick Horticultural Society, to whose fete the weather was so unpropiti ous a f ew d ays since. It was much to be regretted that the weather did not permit so large an attendance yesterday as is usually congregated by floral displays in these gardens, but, not withstanding the damp, a considerable number of per sons were present. Vocal music was added specially for the occasion, and some of the favourites of the public did their best to enliven the company, and in some de gree to dispel the gloom of the evening. There was also an entirely new arrangement of the pyrotechnic display, and the various devices went off very success fully, having been carefully guarded from the atmo speric influence. The following prizes were awarded:— CLASS 1. Best collection of miscellaneous plants, gold medal, Mr. Wray; second best, gold medal, Mr. Cole ; third best, silver medal, Mr. Ober; silver medal, Mr. Stanley; silver medal, Mr. G. King.

NVe hear that Mr. Dyce Sombra has left a paper, intended to be his will, and that its validity must form the subject of some legal investigation. By this document the whole of his property, with the exception of small legacies to the family of his two sisters, is given to the directors of the East India Company, in trust, for the foundation of edu cational establishments throughout Hindostan. In addition, twenty-five members of the majority have presented a proposition, tending to extend the duration of the recess a fortnight l onger t h an t h e pe riod just mentioned. Their proposition runs thus— " We have the honour to propose to the Assembly to suspend its sittings from the 18th of August to the sth of November next." The Minister of Finance has presented to the As sembly a Bill authorising the formation of a bank i n Algeria. It is said that General OUDINOT will be immediately promoted to the rank of a Marshal of France. The Committee of Resistance has published a 13th bulletin, calling upon the people to be prepared for a struggle to establish a Democratic Socialist Republic. This bulletin was printed upon white paper like the Government placards, and stuck up during the night on the walls of Paris, and even on those of the Pre fecture of Police. In the morning they were all torn down by the police agents. M. PALL, who was formerly one of the Secretaries of FougumaTINVILLB, and DeptityJudge of the Re volutionary Tribunal, and who was present at the trial of MARIE ANTOINETTE, died last week at Liege, aged 88. The organ of the Elysee the Patric has the follow ing : . _ There is an idea which is uppermost in every one's mind, and is on every one's lips, because it is just and true. This idea is that the present state of things is in tolerable, and cannot endure until May, 1852." Is this a " feeler" put forth to test the state of public opinion, on the subject of a coup d'etat? The complaint of M. LEMULIER, representative of the people, against M. CARLIER ' the Prefect of Po lice ; M. FOCARDE, editor of the Messager ; and M. VIRMAITRE, editor of the Corsaire, for having libelled him, came on for argument yesterday, before the Civil Tribunal of the Seine. It excited great in terest, and the court was crowded. M. FLANDIN, advocate of M. LEMULIER, said that on the 10th June last M. FORCADE was tried before the Court of As sizes for having published false news calculated to disturb public peace, and in his defence read a docu ment which he said had emanated from the Prefect of Police. That document was in the form of a re port addressed by the Prefect to the PRESIDENT of the Republic; and after stating the dangers of the Societe du Dix Decembre, it charged M. —, one of the chiefs of the society, with having by his influence obtained a public situation for one of his friends, and with having received a portion of the salary. The Corsaire took up the matter, and intimated that the member of the society referred to was M. LEMULIER, representative of the people, and that he was charged with having obtained the situation of director of the Gobelins for M. LACORDAIRE. The Minister of Commerce, on reading this article, sent for M. LACORDAIRE, and, in answer to the Minister's inquiries, that gentleman declared that it was an in famous calumny to say that he allowed M. LEMU LIER any portion of his salary for having obtained him his place. M. LACORDAIRE then went to M. LEMU LIER and told him of the article ; he displayed the most profound indignation at having his name mixed up in such an affair. The matter was then brought before the National Assembly, and M. LEMULIER posi tively denied the truth of the statement. The next day he brought an action against all the parties. lie now demanded 3,000 f. as damages from each of them for the outrage done to his honour, and proposed to make over the money to the hospitals. The calumnious report against M. LEMULIER had probably been spread, because he had succeeded in getting the situation at the Gobelins for a friend of his, whereas the Prefect of Police had wished to obtain it for one of his own proteges. The Prefect bad said that M. FORCADE had made an improper use of the document confided to him confidentially ; but in giving it to M. FORCADE at all, he had either acted with a bad intention, or had committed a most unpardonable fault. M. VESIN, advocate of M. FORCADE, dwelt at some length on the injury done to that gentleman by the Prekct having, in a letter to the newspapers, stated that he had confided to him the report in question to " occupy his leisure," also by his allowing him to be called ‘• one of his subordinates ; " and though he now disavowed those expressions, the dis avowal was not enough for the injury done. M. FORCADE had never been the subordinate of the Prefect of Police, and had not been guilty of a breach of confidence in making known the document which that functionary had confided to him. M. FORCADE, who is a young man, and a powerful writer, had left the editorship of the Patric, sooner than support the policy of the Government of which ho disapproved. M. CARLIER, who had previously taken pains to make his acquaintance, had then asked him to draw up the report in question. But he had no real need of the report, as it was already drawn up in an able manner ; and he himself had admitted that he would probably have made no use of it. Why, then, had he called on M. FORCADE for assistance ? Probably because he feared that M. FORCADE would start another journal, and make a vigorous opposition to the Government ; and in that case it would have been in his power to compromise him—to blast his reputation—by making it appear that he had been connected with the secret police. Another probability was that as a change of Ministry was then expected, M. CARLIER wished to secure the favour of the new Ministers by producing a document which proved that he had blamed and exposed certain acts of their predecessors, and had no share in them. The Learned Gentleman then contended that as the Prefect had acted in such a way, it was absurd to pretend that he had placed confidence in M. FORCADE, and, therefore, the latter could not be accused of having violated any confidence. The further hearing of the case was put off for a week. Although the Bourse was nearly deserted public se curities were remarkably firm, at an advance on yester day's prices. The Five per Cents. opened at 95f. 5c., and closed at 95f. 35c. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 57f. 15c.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 857 f. 50c.; Rouen, 643 f. 75c.; llavre, 245 f.; Great Northern, 468 f. 75c.; Avignon, 211 f. 25e.; Vi -1531. 75c.; Bordeaux, 3951. ; Paris erzon, 440 f.; Basle. and Strasburg, 361 f. 25c.; Tours and Nantes, 2721. 50c.

SPORTING NOTES. No. XCI. ODDS AND ENDS CONCERNING GOODWOOD. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—As the crack meeting on the Downs of Sussex approaches, every four-and-twenty home brings with it a change of some importance connected with the deci sion of the numerous events on paper for next week; some nags having created a sensation in the market— having " strutted their hour," disappear, and are suc ceeded by others, who play the same game, or hold fast to their positions, at the discretion of then bipedal lords and masters. The last two days has witnessed several such capers: Harpsichord, the quondam crack for the Goodwood Stakes, " Having touched the highest point of all his greatness, From that full meridian of his glory He hastes now to his setting. He has fallen Like a bright exhalation in the evening, To be seen and heard of no more." At least this is the case with him, so far as his Good wood engagements are concerned. On the other hand, Backbiter, from a 1,000 to 30, laid at a well-known hotel in Bond-street on Tuesday evening, on a large outlay at the Turf Club and in the City, has advanced to 8 to 1 taken; his chance, however, is a very forlorn one in my opinion, and it would not in the least surprise me were he to fall from his " high estate" in a much more rapid man ner:than he ascended to it. Pitsford also put in an ap pearance yesterday for the Stakes, and found a great many admirers at 20 to 1; if quite up to the mark he will run very respectably, but is no winner. Another outsider, a Patlauder in the shape of Duc-au-durras, found several backers yesterday at 25 and 20 to 1, and is in foree this morning at the last-mentioned price; his chance, I consider, is anything but a forlorn one; as at Chester for the Cup, be shall be my cockboat—my forlorn hope on the forthcoming occasion, as he was then. The Grand Duke is uncommonly firm iu the market at a short figure, as he ought to be, if th e r e i s on l y a f ew pounds difference between him and Vampyre, and as he is a matter of ten or twelve pounds at the least better than his half brother and stable-companion, Letter-press; he will be " there or thereabout" on the day. Presto and Narcissus stand their ground rather firmly, the latter particularly, who, I fancy, will obtain a place for a certainty. As I observed before, it would be little short of madness to run Cariboo for the Stakes, if the owner has any idea of winning the Cup; the compassing the double event is all but an impossibility after the knocking-up he must re c dye, at the weight, in the race for the Stakes; nothing but a light weight can et uny time do the Stakes and Cup; at least this is my humble opinion. Cariboo, however, finds backers for both events, at 5 to 2 for the Cup, which, I think, he will find it an easier task to win than the Stakes, for which ho is priced at 20 to 1. Nancy holds her own for the Cup, and Monies Land grave, and War Ilonie are coming. Young Altisidora has retired from the scene, with but little chance of re turning for any useful purpose. Russborough is uncom monly fishy. It is said that Iris will be pulled out for the Gratwicke; I cannot, however, authenticate the re port. The betting market this mowing is very lively, a large amount of business doing both in the City and at the West-end at the following pric , :—Gratwicke Stakes —6 to 4 on Hernandez; 3 to 1 each agst Miserrima and Iris; 10 to 1 agst any other. Ham Stakcs-7 to 2 each agst Canterbury and Harbinger; 4 to 1 agst Father Thames. Great 300 soya. Stakes—Even betting on the field, which of courso means even betting between Nutshell and William the Conqueror. Lavant Stakes-6 to 4 agst Home-brewed; 3to 1 agat Harbinger. Drawing-room Stakes— 5 to 4 on Hesse Homburg; 5 to 2 against Midas. Goodwood Stakes -6 to 1 agst Grand Duke, 2,000 to 300 taken in one bet; 8 to 1 each agst Presto and Backbiter, offered; 10 to 1 agst Narcissus, taken; 16 to 1 agat Pitsford; 16 to 1 agst Becton ; 20 to 1 agst Duc-an-durras, taken re peatedely in the City; 20 to 1 agst Windischgratz; 20 to 1 agst Harpsichord, friendless; 100 to 3 agst In gratitude. Goodwood Cup-5 to 2 agst Cariboo, take 3 to 1; 4 to 1 agst Nancy, take 9 to 2; 10 to 1 each agst Landgrave, War Horse, and Montes; Cossack and Bus borough fishy at a decline.
