No. 18,980.] [l l Ric - E SD, honoured at being called upon to represent that body, and trusted that the conduct of the House of Commons dur ing the present session had been such as to entitle it to the confidence and gratitude of the country. Very important questions had been submitted to them at the commencement of the present session. They had been asked whether they thought it wise •to persevere in the financial and commercial policy which had for so many years prevailed in that country, or whether they would adopt a policy condemnatory of the existing system. He trusted they would be of opinion that the House of Commons had acted well and wisely for the interests of the country, when, by an overwhelming majority, they had decided that that policy liad been beneficial, and that they would not sanction its reversal. (Hear, and cheers.) But that great question had now been taken out of the range of political discussion. It was no longer a matter which divided political parties, although it was a proof of how slowly nations learnt to prize the great blessings they enjoyed, that it was only now what was taught for years, and proved by argument, was admitted to be one of the greatest sources of the wealth, and prosperity, and comfort of the great body of the people. (Hear.) There were other questions, which, as they still remained subjects of discussion—as they still remained questions of political heat and dispute— that was not the place to refer to. One observation, however, he should make, and that was, that if ever the House of Commons or himself deserved well of his con stituents of the City of London, it was in their revision of the taxation of the country, in searching out where it acted unfairly and unequally, and in endeavouring to re lieve the people at large from the duties and taxes which bore upon articles of the first necessity, and which, according to these principles, ought not properly to become objects of fiscal taxation. (Hear, hear.) They had so endeavoured to arrange the re venue of the country that the public credit should be steadily maintained ; they had taken care that in repealing and revising taxes that they should provide a revenue that the public creditor should be duly paid ; that the great services of the country should be main tained in full efficiency, and that the revenue should be fully equal to all its demands. (Cheers.) He hoped they had thus performed the solemn duty that had been imposed upon them. He agreed entirely with what his noble friend at the head of the Government bad said with regard to the blessings of peace, and it was one of those blessings that the public credit should be kept high, and that every class of the community should par take of the benefits of their improved commercial policy. He begged to thank the company for the compliment that had been paid to the House of Commons. The next toast given from the chair was " The Duke of Newcastle, and Prosperity to the Colonies of England." The Duke of NEWCASTLE returned thanks. LONDON AND SOUTH-WEiTERN RAILWAY.

The Earl of ABERDEEN gave the health of the Lord Mayor, who briefly acknowledged the compliment, and gave the Attorney and Solicitor-Generals. Sir R. BETHELL returned thanks. The LORD MAYOR confessed himself at fault in having omitted from the list of toasts the name of a no bleman whose great talents and unswerving integrity had won for him the respect of the nation. He begged to propose to them " The Health of Viscount Palmer ston, the Home Secretary of the present Administra tion." To judge from the rapturous applause with which the noble viscount's name was received, this was par excel lence the toast of the evening. After the cheering had subsided, Lord PALMERSTON rose and said—l beg to return you my sincere and cordial thanks for the very kind manner in which you have proposed my name, and I beg also, ladies and gentlemen, to thank you cordially for the flat tering manner in which you have been pleased to receive it. It is, indeed, a very great satisfaction to me to find that the manner in which I have endeavoured humbly to perform the duties of that situation with which it has been her Majesty's pleasure to entrust me, has met with your, approbation, and I trust I may not be presumptuous in concluding that that very generally expressed appro bation is shared by the coun try at large. (Cheers.) My pre sent office places me more than before in direct and fre quent communication with my countrymen at home, and I have great satisfaction in thinking that if I should in the smallest degree deserve the commendation which the Lord Mayor has bestowed on me, my success has been an easy task whenever the City of London was concerned, for there could not be a more able body of men than the municipal representatives of that city, or one more able to co-operate with any branch of the Government with which they might be placed in connection. (Loud cheers.) We have had recently a most remarkable instance of their promptitude and clearsightedness, for, acting in the true spirit of the British constitution—ever open to progress and improvement, but building improvements on the ancient and stable foundations—they have con curred in the appointment of a commission, not for the purpose of overturning the institutions of this city, but of inquiring whether the lapse of time, or the change of circumstances, may have led to the expediency of sonic slight modification or expansion. (Hear.) The readiness with which the city of London has co-operated in the formation of that commission has, I trust been met in a proper spirit by the Government, by the selection of com missioners of commensurate ability and integrity. (Hear.) My lord, I may perhaps be permitted, having been so honoured, and having discharged the pleasing task of acknowledging my obligation, to usurp for a moment your lordships functions and, myself, to propose a toast. (Hear, hear.) We have drunk the healths of that great and distinguished body of which I have the honour to be an unworthy member—l mean the House of Commons—and, as in scientific formula, the whole in cludes its parts, it might be concluded that sufficient honour had been done to each individual member, but in this assembly I hope I may be allowed to make an exception to the rule by proposing as a separate toast the health of the metropolitan members. (Cheers.) The circumstances and the place point out the fitness of the toast, because that reform, to which the municipalities of this country owe so many privileges, is, in a great mea sure, owing to the exertions of the metropolitan members. And amongst those members there is one whom I should wish to distinguish, one not more conspicuous for his parliamentary duty, than he is for his personal elevation of character, and, above all, for that chivalrous devotion to the unfortunate and the exile, which is so well known as to cause all who hear me to feel at once that lam speaking of Lord Dudley Stuart. (Loud cheers.) But, my lords and gentleman, I am not wholly disinterested in proposing the toast just now, be cause I hope to obtain the assistance of the metropolitan members in promoting those material improvements in the City to which I attach a high importance. It is not the institutions only of London that require mending ; she must also mend her ways. (Cheers and laughter.) The vast human tide that daily passes through them must have wider means of transit. I remember some years since, when the great sculptor Canova was here, he was greatly struck with London. He admired the continuous footways, the comfort of the sepa rate houses, the order, and the general security of person and property. Having enumerated all these ad vantages, he concluded his panegyric in that strain of hyperbole which is peculiar to southern climes, by say ing that if London had only a little snore light and pure water, it would be a paradise. (Cheers and laughter.) I would humbly then ask the assistance of the metropo litan members in putting an end to the nuisances which prevent our attainment of these desiderati. A poet of the last century apostrophised "The Thames, translucent wave"—(laughter)—which he described as "Like a broad mirror," but I fear that the influx of the sewers has dimmed all that mirror's lustre. (Continued laughter.) I therefore call on the metropolitan members to assist me in restoring the Thames from a state of liquid mud to a state of translucent water, so that the greatest commer cial city in the world may become also the most healthy and the most creditable to the architectural taste of its inhabitants. (Loud cheering.) Lord DUDLEY STUART said that, in rising to acknow ledge the compliment which had just been paid to the representatives of the metropolitan boroughs, he felt very great difficulty in expressing his surprise that he should be the subject of such warm eulogium from one who not a lso filled bwuat st he ee wholecircumstance notworldanc etrespass of which s w \svp i shhi supon pn yo f n a m m t ah e only filled high o ffice in the councils of his S overe i gn, i r) t o h udl a 't ny length ene d attempt to express his companym but(nige might h rt, a b d he peawr. g ratification.

(Hear, hear.) The Duk e of ARGYLL briefly proposed " The Court of Aldermen," and Alderman FARNCOMBE returned thanks. The FRENCH AMBASSADOR next proposed the health of the Lady Mayoress. His Excellency spoke in French as follows--Ladies and gentlemen, I have the honour to originate a toast, which I am sure you will receive with the same warmth and the same pleasure that I experi ence in proposing it. Words would be of no avail in giving effect to the toast, and I feel that I have said all I that is necessary, when I propose to you to drink to the health of the Lady Mayoress. (Loud applause.) The LORD MAYOR briefly acknowledged the compli ment, and the ladies retired. Two or three other toasts followed, after which the Lord Mayor left the chair, and accompanied his guests to the drawing room, where tea and coffee were served. The distinguished company separated about half-past 11 o'clock. THE AMERICAN MAILS.—On Saturday, shortly before noon, the British and North American Royal Mail steam-ship Niagara, Captain Leitch, sailed from her moorings in the Mersey, for Boston and Halifax, with the usual mails for the United States and British North American possessions, 150 passengers, and a large cargo of valuable merchandise on freight. Her mails were carried out in charge of Lieut. Wavle, R.N., Admiralty agent. I,C)---t-c-4g-,i CRICK . ' 2'. ARRANGEMENTS FO THE WEEK. THIS DAY. At Lord's—Sussed (with Parr) v.

The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine: — "157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. "About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every Va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief, and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know some thing of this disease. It was during one of thou 3 paroxysm., between twelve and thir teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I lost no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect health. " From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf fered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS is towards its improvement. "I have recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result has always been of the most gratifying character. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, " GARRET FOSTER GILL. " To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand." _ . For every description of Gout and Rheumatism, Sciatica, Tic-dolt). reux, &c., &c., BLAIK'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS are a sovereign remedy, contain neither mercury, opium, or any other dangerous drug, require no care whatever in their use, and ler ra pidity of cure and complete safety have not their equal in the world. Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and all respectable Medicine Vendors. Price Js. 9d. per box.

MAY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, j uv enile irregularities and excesses, which have pro in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema raeuseueldting more from misery prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience hi the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist cnce secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages. Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely neces sary that all men should know that there are principles of personal manag ement which cann ot h e violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its con , equenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and s the only legally qualified Fhysician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply rev, arded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostnims, have inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.

The allotment of the Brockley Park Estate, Forest-hill, West Kent, and of the estate half-way between Ware and ncrtford, is fixed for Thursday, the 28th inst., at the otheeS. TEE CAMP AT CHOBHAM COMMON. With the return of fine weather, or, at least, some indications of it, the attractions of the camp revive. Lord Seaton has at last had a few days of sunshine, and be has been turning them to the greatest possible ac count. The troops were out on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, and on Saturday again they had a long and brilliant field-day. People begin once more to feel confidence that they will not be left to return from the Common having seen nothing but dismal-looking tents, and been cheated by the rain not only of any review, but of the alfresco luncheons which they had provi dently brought from town in well-packed hamgers. On Saturday they came down in unusual numbs by the jog-trot "expresses" of the South-Western. The sun from an early hour put forth all his brilliancy, fund every one seemed bent upon learning, by favour °fie wea ther, as much as could be acquired in one., .of the art of war. If the troops stand in need of • obham course of training, so also do the public ; for practice in the tented field is hardly more necessary to the one than a just conception of what military science is to the other. A population separated by its occupations from such knowledge, and yet swayed very strongly by the force of opinion, is exposed to the extremes either of invasion panics on the one hand, 1 of exag gerated self-sufficiency on the oth e r. H a g u , gone through the one place we are now o sc illating h e o th er . To the heated im ag inations of ma n y, Lord a t on an d the Chobham army are quite able to march fro one end of Europe to th e other, and, h a ving emancipated tii all " down-trodden" nationalities in their way, to finish by restoring the Danubian Provinces to the Porte and " crumpling up " Russia. The present encampment may be turned to useful account in correcting our ideas of these matters, and giving us some insight into the de tails and nature of actual service. Let anyone on a field day join "the enemy," and with a good glass watch how the troops are handled—how each arm of the force is brought into play—how much discipline and science are exercised in all the brilliant and rapid manoeuvres that he witnesses ; he sees great movements regulated by the same mechanical laws that determine the action of a machine ; battalions deploy into line before him as easily as a lady opens her fan, or form s quare as rapidly as she shuts it up again ; not an evolution takes place the fore thought as well as the mechanical skill of which he may not recognise. If the artillery is brought to bear it is to support an advance or cover a retreat, or for some other object which the circumstances dictate ; whether with drawn through the intervals of battalions or rapidly wheeled from point to point of the line, there is still an obvious intelligence guiding its use. So with the cavalry, which, with its facilities of locomotion, is seen protecting the retreat, or hanging upon the enemy's rear, or care fully selecting the ground and the opportunities for an unexpected charge. Finally, you have the infantry formed under shelter when not required, but showing the largest possible front when in action, always ready for every emergency of attack or defence, to form square, to deploy into line, to throw out or recal skirmishers, to take ground to the right or to the left, to advance or to retreat—doing all methodically, with confident pre cision, and for purposes which explain themselves under the sight of the spectator. In this country, where, ex cept professional men, people are so ignorant of the art of war, the practice at Chobham may be studied to great advantage. It will teach us at least to appreciate the state to which, by an experience, skill, and science aug menting from age to age, the profession of arms has at tained. The greatest peace advocate may there take pleasure in observing how the mighty interests entrusted to the keeping of armies has tended, as time rolled on, by augmenting their efficiency, to diminish the proba bility of war. He may also gather from the same sur vey a juster sense of, and a higher respect for, those military resources which have been accumulated so ex tensively abroad, and are so familiar to the nations of the continent, but of which we, as a people, are so ignorant. On Saturday the troops turned out at 11 o'clock, and marched at once to that portion of Catlin's Valley which lies in front of the Artillery-park. There they took up a position, sheltered by the lay of the ground from the supposed enemy, which was posted on the north side of the valley, its left resting on Colonel Challoner's planta tion, its right on the Windsor road, and the whole fronting the Camp, though distant about a mile from it; the cavalry with the horse artillery were on the right of the division, the Guards in the centre, and beyond them Sir Richard England's and Lockyer's brigades. Lord Seaton appeared at first to meditate an attack on the enemy's left, and for that purpose the cavalry and horse artillery took ground more to the right, but immediately after the whole force was ordered to advance towards the centre and right of the enemy, which they did. The Guards, moving forward by battalions in open columns of companies, deployed into line, while Sir Richard England's brigade, comity , up on the left, formed line nearly at right angles, the leading battalion throwing out skirmishers, and gradually turning the enemy's right, which fell back slowly, making a stand wherever the nature of the ground afforded facilities for doing so. This movement was supported by the batteries, which, after a heavy cannonade, retired through the intervals, and file firing became general along the whole line, which was wrapped for some time in columns of smoke. The guns being again brought to bear upon the enemy's centre and right, they were at last o bli ge d to retreat into Colonel Challoner's plantation, upon which at the outset their left rested. The Guards and Sir Richard England's brigade followed them through the woods, preceded by skirmishers, while the cavalry manoeuvred on the left, seeking open ground in that direction, and Lockyer's brigade and the artillery remained behind in reserve. The bush fighting which ensued may be regarded as one of the chief characteristics of the day's operations. Little of course could be seen by visitors, but Colonel Challoner's pheasants and rabbits must have been consi bpelian bearskins s the f army,the Guardsnor consi derably astonished. Hi s gamekeeper was something more, and no feeli ng o f patriotism, no regard for the discipline evenhardly a gratificationrdly visible over seeingthe immense ferns in the pl an t at i on, could check that hero ' s anger. He could not understand why Lord Seaton should make war upon the peace of his master's pre serve. If it had been a superior body of poachers with whom he found himself confronted, he could not have grasped his gun tighter or looked more in dignant. Not satisfied with driving the enemy right through the wood, the troops actually formed line, and commenced file firing on its further skirts, while the rabbits darted from point to point, bewildered at the din of so tremendous a battue. Poor Colonel Challoner's fine ferns suffered on this occasion as did the corn fields at Waterloo, but lie was a consenting party of course to what was done, and we suppose is rather proud of the sacrifice than otherwise. The enemy were now supposed to have gained new strength, and the tide of battle must be imagined as turned. Slowly the battalions that had pushed into the wood emerged from it amain, the artillery opening fire to cover their retreat, and indefatigable foe pressing hotly upon their rear. They fell back be hind Lockyer's brigade, which (having 'previously been in reserve) was now drawn up in line with the cavalry on its left, and commenced platoon firing. The enemy still pressing forward, the whole division retired towards the Camp, covered by the cavalry, which we have never on any former field-day seen more brilliantly manoeuvred. At first they threatened to pounce down upon the ene my's skirmishers from the left, compelling them repeat edly to check their advances and form square. Then they took ground more in front, and, waiting in a hollow, where they were concealed from observation, made two splendid charges up the slope. The enemy, however, were not to be taken by surprise. Their diminutive squares were ready to receive the impetuous onset of man and horse, and, as the squadrons retreated, a well sustained fire poured in upon them to quicken their pace. The 79th in line, and supported by the batteries, made a final stand in front of the encampment ; but what avails valour with an overpowering foe in front and dinner ready cooked and waiting behind ? At three o'clock the whole division was once more within its can vas home, and the crowds of spectators on their way back to town. The Camp has of late assumed a much more decorated appearance than it had when first formed. Many of its streets and lanes are planted with young firs, and, under the hands of the Sappers, neat sentry boxes have been constructed. The quarters of the Guards are especially noticeable for the way they have been smartened up ; but the same spirit is observed gene rally along the lines. It will be some time, even as matters stand, before the site of the encampment be comes indistinguishable from the mat of the Common ; and, should this state of mimic warfare last much longer, the archeologists of a future day will be dividing their puzzled attention between the traces left of Lord Sea ton's command and the remains of Roman military life a little way off. CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION REFORM.—The City of London Municipal Reform Association have issued an address, stating that within the last few weeks more than 4,000 bankers, merchants, manufacturers, and tradesmen have been summoned to take up freedoms to entitle them to continue their respective pursuits within this commercial capital of the world, and that 10,000 more are under a similar liability. The parties so situ ated are earnestly urged to co-operate and appeal to the Royal Commissioners appointed to inquire into the pre sent state of the Corporation. The Association is, in fact, a Municipal Reform League for the correction of all abuses in the Corporation. MINISTERIAL BANQUET AT THE MAN- SION-HO USE. The Lord Mayor gave a grand entertainment to her Majesty's Ministers and a highly distinguished party, numbering nearly 300 guests, at the Mansion-house, on Saturday evening. The Egyptian-hall, in which the banquet took place, was seen to great advantage with its recent artistic decorations. The tables presented a mag nificent display of plate, and nothing was wanting to preserve the high character of civic hospitality. The company began to arrive shortly after six o'clock, and were received by the Right lion. the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress in the drawing room ; from whence, at half-past 7 o'clock, the guests proceeded to the banqueting hall. Among the distinguished company we remarked the Earl of Aberdeen, the Lord Chancellor and Lady Cran worth, the Earl Granville, the Duchess of Sutherland, the Duke and Duchess of Argyll, the Duke of Newcastle, Viscount Palmerston and Lady Palmerston, Lord and Lady John Russell, the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert, M.P., and Mrs. Herbert, Sir William Molesworth, Bart., M.P., his Excellency Count Walewski (French Ambas sador) and the Countess Walewski, his Excellency the Marquis d'Azeglio (Sardinian Minister), Viscount Can ning, Viscount Hardi nge , th e Ri g ht Hon.

Hunter, Mr. Recorder, &c. As the guests arrived, and afterwards in the gallery during dinner, the Coldstream band, led by Mr. God. frey, played a variety of favourite operatic music. A dan n t e s w , When it is stated that the banquet was se rve d un d er the direction of Messrs. Staples, of the Albion, it w ill be unnecessary to make other comment either o n th e liberality of the bill of fare or the admirable styl e i n featurew hi c h the a ewho observed le i n th e arrangements were costume carried Le d en at out. te each of whom wore a lace shoulder knot, as a distin guishing mark of his vocation—an idea, we believe, taken from our Parisian neighbours. After the cloth had been drawn, grace was sung with excellent effect by a choir of professionals, among whom whom the voices of Miss Eyles and Miss Messent, and Mr. Frank Bodda, were agreeably conspicuous. After the " loving cup ' had gone round, The LORD MAYOR gave the "Health of her Majesty the Queen," delicately alluding to the sovereign's recent indisposition, and congratulating his guests on her speedy and happy recovery. The toast was drunk with enthusiasm, and followed by the National Anthem. The health of the Prince Consort and the rest of the royal family followed, and was warmly responded to. The LORD MAYOR next gave " The Army and Navy," to which Viscount HARDINGE and Capt. MILNE, R.N., seve rally responded. The LORD MAYOR then gave "The Earl of Aber deen and her Majesty's Ministers." He was quite sure that the toast was one which could not but be accept ai) to the citizens of London. (Applause.) They co 11 testify to th e unwear i e d d i l i gence of the noble lil a for , and his constant and unremitting devotion to the interests and service of the country. He had, there fore, great pleasure in proposing to them the health of " The Earl of Aberdeen and her Majesty's Ministers." (Cheers.) The Earl of ABERDEEN returned thanks. On an occasion when her Majesty's Ministers had been so highly distinguished, it was incumbent on them to feel doubly grateful, and therefore he begged to ten der in their name his most sincere acknowledgments. The Lord Mayor had been pleased to express himself in high terms towards her Majesty's Govern ment, and in terms very flattering—much too flatter ing, so far as he was himself concerned. No doubt they had done their best to promote the public pros perity, but he had often felt that if a man required a practical lesson of humility, it would be to place him in the situation which he then filled. No doubt it was at tended with much honour, much power, and much in fluence ; but if any one would look to the great respon sibilities he incurred, and the great duties he was called upon to discharge, it must also lead him to despair. If that was the case with the most commanding talents, and the most untiring zeal, how much more must it be so with one who was fully conscious of his own great deficiencies. He should feel very deeply the discourage ment under which he laboured, if it were not for the bright prospects which he saw at the present time throughout the whole of the country—(cheers)—if he did not see prosperity, happiness, and a degree of progress which had been hitherto unparalleled. Now lie did not pretend to say that that was in any degree owing to the exertions of her Majesty's Ministers. At the same time, he believed they had done well and wisely in firmly adhering to that enlightened system of fiscal and commercial policy which was established by a great minister, whom they had lost by an untimely end. If these great advantages could not be wholly attributed to the present Government, at least they had used their utmost endeavours to preserve them unimpaired. That observation led him to say a word, and but one word, upon a subject which now much engrossed the public mind. He would say that the policy, the essential policy, of her Majesty's Government was a policy of peace. (Cheers.) And he had no doubt that his distinguished friend near him, and whom he now had in his eye (the French Minister), would re-echo those sentiments. (Applause.) It could not, therefore, be a matter of indifference if, in that great centre of in dustry and commerce, he should assure them that no effort would be wanting, consistently with the honour and the real interests of the country, to secure a con tinuance of that first of earthly blessings. (Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR said they were honoured with the presence of a distinguished gentleman, the French Am bassador, and he was sure he only represented their feelings in giving him, in their name, a hearty welcome to the City of London. (Cheers.) Although that dis tinguished individual had not been long among them, he had already won golden opinions, and, as the repre sentative of his country, had exhibited a frankness, a candour, and a courtesy, which had won the hearts of all with whom he associated. His coming among them that day was illustrative of the harmony which existed between the two great countries of England and France, and which could not fail to contribute to the prosperity of both. (Hear, hear.) He had great pleasure in pro posing "The health of His Excellency the French Am bassador, and the other Foreign Ministers present." His Excellency Count WALEWSKI, in acknowledging the toast, spoke in the French language to the following effect. He said :—My Lord Mayor, ladies, and gentle men, I beg to thank you on behalf of my colleague, the Minister of Sardinia, and myself. If my other colleagues are not in this hall, it is because they have been pre vented by unavoidable circumstances, for we are always too happy to accept the magnificent hospitality offered to us by the City of London, which you, my lord mayor, so worthily represent. (Cheers.) And we were doubly anxious to accept this cordial invitation, in the prospect of meeting the Ministers of her Majesty the Queen. For my own part, I have too much reason to congratulate myself on my relations with them not to take every op portunity of expressing to them the friendly sentiment with which they inspire me. (Applause.) Yes, gentlemen, the cordiality which last year existed in the relations between France and England, and at which I then expressed my great satisfaction in this same hall, rests at this moment upon new bases, which can not fail still more to consolidate and to assure the duration of it. (Prolonged applause.) This happy result ought to be hailed with joy by all of us, for more than anything else it secures the peace of Europe for the future as well as for the present. (Cheers.) And I hope, t ' my Lord Mayar, that facts will very shortly occur _n, o sanction this assertion. (Applause.) Permit me z conclusion, to thank you for the kind expressmioe s in ' which you have been good enough to address per sonally, and to assure you of my gratitude for the flat tering reception which I have met with in this noble and brilliant assembly. (Loud cheers.) The LORD MAYOR, after expressing his regret at the absence of nearly all the judges upon their gave the health of " the Lord Chancellorieir official duties, and her Ma jesty's judges." The LORD CHANCELLOR r esponded, observing that as his noble friend near him ( the Earl of Aberdeen) had impressed upon them the importance of preserving p eace, he would remind them that their security and prosperity as a nation was mainly secured by a due administration of jus ti ce . (Hear.) He th ou g ht on th at account the judges had some claim upon their attention and consi deration, i n see i ng that justice was fairly and p romptly administered. Durine , the time he had presided as one of the judges of the criminal court, he must say that he had always been most ably supported by the munici pal authorities of London in upholding the law and the institutions of the State. The next toast given was, " Earl Granville and the House of Lords." Earl GRANVILLE returned thanks, and, in reference to the legislation of the Upper House, expressed his regret that the unintentional result of that l eg i s l ation had been to shut out one of the representatives chosen by the citizens of London from his seat in the House of Com mons. The noble earl briefly reviewed the labours of the House of Peers during the present session, and ex pressed a hope that they would consummate the fiscal arrangements that were proposed by the Government, by giving their sanction to the Succession Duties Bill. The LORD MAYOR then gave " Lord John Russell and the House of Commons. Lord J. RUSSELL returned thanks, fie felt highly SELF-PRESERVATION.

The regatta was resumed on Saturday under the most favourable auspices, the weather being delightfully fine, with an abundance of sport. The attendance of specta tors was not so numerous as on the first day, but still great and extremely respectable ; the chain-pier and cliffs affording very excellent opportunities of witnessing the greater part of the race, which owing to the bright ness of the day could be seen almost throughout with the naked eye. The sport commenced with the race for the Watch keepers' Prize of 50/., with 501. added by the regatta committee. Yachts. Tons. Owners. Arrow 102 Wildfire Aurora The Musquito and Julia were not at their post. The latter of these had, by some misconception, not been duly entered, and the former was unable to leave Shore ham harbour, where she had gone for the night, but should have left before daybreak. A delay of half an hour was allowed, to give her a chance of getting to sta. tion, but she had scarcely got afloat off Shoreham before the others were pursuing their way to the westward. The start, originally fixed for if, took place at 11.40, with a fine steady breeze from S.W., and a smooth sea. All were very smart in setting their sails, the Aurora get ting her topsail first set, and making a short board on the starboard tack, the others on the port tack. All had to go about before rounding the western spotsboat, before reaching which the Arrow went to windward of the Aurora, which had for some time kept abreast of the Wildfire. At the western post the Wildfire went first round, at 11h. 48min. 30sec., the Arrow at 1111. 49min., and the Aurora at 11h. 51min. In the tolerably free sailing from this spot to the Southward boat, the Arrow passed the Wildfire to windward, and they made the south ward buoy, with the Arrow still leading, at 11h. 53min. 50sec. Shortly after this the Arrow carried away the joins of her gaff, and sprung her bowsprit, which dis abled her further continuance in the race. The Arrow was at the Eastward spot at lh. lin., and the Wildfire at half a minute after, but had scarcely done so when she carried away her topsail-yard, and hoisted as soon as they could a jib-headed topsail, it takinc , her some time to clear away the wreck. They rounded the first time in the following order : Arrow.. Wildfire 111. •2,slnin. 30 sec. 50sec. These two continued without any change, the wind being still good, and rounded the second time as fol lows : Arrow .. Wildfire ... 2h. 56min. .. 311. Bmin. In the third and final round the Wildfire fell a trifle inure astern ; the race ultimately concluding as fol- lows : Arrow 4h. 44 min. 15 sec. Wildfire The Arrow, which is a most beautiful boat, belongs to the Royal Squadron and several other clubs. Second Class for the Shipowners' Purse of 50 guineas for 15 tons and under 30. Yachts. Tons. Owners. Merlin Emelie Phantom The start took place at 12 hours 55 minutes, over the same course, but only twice round. The Emelie was the weathermost boat, the Merlin being next to her. All went away together beautifully on the same tack, each making a short board. The Phantom waited for the Merlin to go round and get in trim before she well swung. The Emelie took the lead for a short distance ; but on making the next board to the westward, the Phantom soon passed into the first place, and they com pleted the round thus : Phantom lb. 53min. Emelie lh. 57min. The other was all astern. The Phantom held her lead throughout, and they finished as follows : Phantom 4h. 49min. 15sec. Emelie sh. 4min. 20sec. _ _ Of the other races the following are deserving of A passing notice : Skiff Match, with Two Oars and Coxswain. T. Tull's Sylph. Waight's Kraken 2 Pleasure Loggers. J.

Buckridge's Claude 1 2 Gre gg 's Navarree 2 The Regatta dinner took place in the evening, at the Ship Hotel, H. P. Tamplin, Esq., the High Constable, in the chair. It was very largely attended, and the usual toasts on such occasions done ample justice to. In the course of the evening the chairman announced that Mr. Chamberlayne, the owner of the Arrow, had pre sented the Regatta Committee with 201. towards the next regatta, and Mr. Lane, of the Phantom, 31. THE OUTRAGE AND MURDER AT BARNET.—ANOTHER APPREHENSION.—On Friday a man named Thomas Maginnis was apprehended by police constable 141 S, whilst lying asleep on the roadside in Chipping Barnet, on suspicion of being a party to the recent diabolical outrage committed on the body of the poor old woman, Rebecca Broxdon, on the night of the 10th inst., at Underhill, Barnet, and which has resulted in the death of the unfortunate victim. In the course of the after. noon the prisoner was taken before James Dickens, Esq. (one of the magistrates for St.Albans and Hertfordshire), when lie (the prisoner) stated that he only came from Kells, county Mayo, Ireland, about two months since, he was totally ignorant of the charge against him, and that he could prove an alibi. Evidence, however, was given to the effect that on the day after the outrage the pri soner changed his attire, and a few days after a coat or jacket was found in a dunghill near th e b ar n where the crime was committed, and which upon being shown to the prisoner lie admitted belonged to him. The prisoner was then remanded to the adjourned examination of the other two prisoners, Patrick Farley and Brian Cunning ham. Very little doubt now exists that having Miagtankneisn, Farley, and Cunningham are guilty off The of an active part in this atrocious afi only thing now wanting is the fourth man, ir and themanin formation Barney Burn, who gave the police the necessary which led to the apprehension of Cunning. ham and Farley, who has since (absconded. Notwith standing the unremitting exertions of Hawkes, Harri s , and Moore, three active officers of the S division, neither of these two parties have as yet been found out, although the fourth ruffian has been traced to Mrs. Dearman's farm in Barnet, where he was employed under the name of James 'alacdonald. He stands about six feet high, is about 23 or 24 years of age, very thin face and high cheek bones, his hair cut very short, and has a slovenly gait ; when last seen he was dressed in a blue-striped shirt, old dark vest without sleeves, cord trousers, old Wellington boots cut down, and a blue cloth cap, fitting tight to the head. He is known by the various names o f "Sailor," " Yorkie," "Soldier," &c., and it is sup posed that he has been to sea, and has been recently discharged from prison, where he had suffered twelve months' imprisonment, for some offence committed at sea. THE CROPS IN THE WEST OF ENGLAND.—In Devon and Cornwall great damage has been done to the grow ing crops by the heavy rains throughout June, and as far as this month is gone. Much grain has been laid, and a large portion is described as being in some places under water. These advices have produced much un easinesa with regard to the approaching harvest. Y2l.
