Sir JOHN SHELLEY, Bart., M.P. for Westminster, in troduced the deputation, and read the report, which objected to the cost of the police, in comparison with the aid and assistance they rendered to the public, and pointed out several specific grievances which required immediate reform. Sir J. Shelley stated that he could corroborate that part of the report which alluded to the unequal distribution of the force. In riding from his house to the Home-office, to meet the deputation, he had counted four policemen on duty on Constitution hill—a number which could not be required there when her Majesty was out of town, whilst in some of the streets not a policeman was to be seen. Mr. NELSON stated that the cost of the police to St. I James's was double what they formerly contributed. The population had increased 50 per cent., or one-half, but the cost of the police for the metropolis (allowing for extended districts and extra services) had been nearly doubled, and it now amounted to the enormous sum of upwards of 400,0001. per annum. The inhabitants had no control over this expenditure, and no means of im proving the efficiency of the force. Under the Police Act a minimum rate amounting to 6d. in the pound is levied, whether required or not, and owing to the in crease of buildings, and the assessments, the amount so raised is more than adequate, and balances of from 40,0001. to 60,0001. remain unappropriated, at the end of the year, in the hands of the commissioners. The introduction of the representative element was essentially necessary ; it might be done by a police committee in every borough or district of the me tropolis, somewhat similar to the police committee of the City, a very useful link between the ratepayer and the police commissioner. Local grievances were by this means made known at head-quarters. It would also be a great improvement if one of the commissioners transacted his business in an open court, where any per son could lodge his complaint, instead of making it known as at the present by means of correspondence or deputations.. Measures of this nature would not destroy the Government control, but would tend to economise the expenditure, and add to the efficiency of the force. Mr. Geesin, Mr. Clark, Mr. Bedford, and Mr. Nicoll, also addressed the Home Secretary. Lord PALMERSTON said, with reference to the open court, he was afraid it would take up too much of the time of the commissioner, but it was suggested that some persons deputed by them might attend at certain times to hear complaints ; the present system of pro motion was a source of emulation to the policeman. He could not hold out any hope of decreased expenditure ; he would, however, send the report to the Police Corn - I missionere for their consideration. Badness done this day.

DEPUTATION TO AMERICA FROM THlri CHURCH OF ENGLAND.— The Archbishops and Bisho..ps and other dignitaries of the Church of England, have, nominated a depntation to proceed to America, to taace part in the approaching Convention of the Episcopal Church in that country. It will be remembered that, at the jubilee of the Society for the Propagation of the G 0.3 pel in Foreign Parts, which was celebrated last year, a deputation was sent from America, at the especial request of the Arch bishop of Canterbury, consisting of the Bishop of Michi gan, the Bishop of Western New York,, and the Rev. Dr. Wainwright, since consecrated Bit hop of New York. Prior to the departure of the American bishops, a wish was expressed that a return visit :should be paid by the Church of England, and the suggestion was at once readily acquiesced in. It was expected that the Archbishop of Canterbury, or at all events some of the English bishops, would have formed part of the deputa tion ; but they have been unable to learve England on account of their numerous and pressing: engagements. A deputation, however, has been appro 9 ed of, and will leave England in the course of a few weeks. It is to consist of the Venerable John Sinclair, M.A., archdea con of Middlesex and vicar of Kensington ; the Rev. Philip Gell, M.A., bishop designate of Lyttleton, New Zealand ; and the Rev. Ernest Hawkins, _B.D., secretary to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Fo reign Parts and minister of Curzon Chapel, May-fair.

SPORTING NOTES GUESSES ABOUT GOODWOOD. On Saturday I briefly directed attention to the Goodwood Stakes, and intimated the probability of many important changes in the bettin g . My expec tations have been realised, for within the last four and-twenty hours the " incidence of speculation" has been marked and significant. The determined demon stration in favour of Joe Miller was perhaps the most important " movement ;" it caused his rapid advance in the setting, and the rage to get on is increasing. Should he be the first favourite before the start, I shall not be surprised. His known racing ability entitles him to the position which he has attained, but his chance must be calculated in accordance with his last year's achieve ments ; his inglorious displays this season must not, for obvious reasons, be allowed to influence an estimate of his capabilities. His party, when, in earnest, are "dan gerous ;" they have established a somewhat questionable reputation as shrewd turf-tacticians, and these circum stances cause their proceedings to be narrowly watched, and sometimes suspiciously examined. That Joe Miller is intended now, admit'', however, of little question, and in consideration of the power of money and the horse's incontestible merits, I am compelled to place great con fidence in the formidableness of his chance. Hobby Horse and Vindex will perhaps be his most dangerous antagonists. The support, however, which Joe Miller has recently received in the turf market has somewhat discouraged the partisans of Hobby Horse, and has somewhat lessened the sanguine hopes which they entertained of his success. Still, I expect to see him obtain a very forward, if not the foremost, po sition in the race. Vindex's uncertain temper renders it hazardous to place strong faith in his racing powers. That he is a horse of a superior stamp is unquestion able, but his good qualities are somewhat counteracted by one thumping bad one—a currish, ill-tempered dis position. Should he, however, run " kind," he will, in my opinion, keep Kingston " safe." This conclusion is deduced from his performance with Kingston at New castle, where he beat him easily, and is not affected bythe plausible arguments which are set up to extenuate King ston's defeat. Kingst on was per h a p s somewhat " stale ' after his race on the preceding day, and his making the running was perhaps injudicious, but the manner in which Vindex "galloped over him" was unmistakable. That the Kingston party have a good "line" by which to estimate their horses' chance is certain. It is fur nished by Talfourd's running with Hobby Horse at York, and Kingston's encounter with Goorkah at Newcastle. On Saturday, Father Thames sprang prominently into notice, but his chance, when compared with that of Joe Miller's, appears somewhat insignificant. Goorkah has disappeared from the list of quotations, and although a probable starter, I do not expect to see him occupy, by " long chalks," as the Yankees say, so forward a position as he obtained for the Nor thumberland Plate. To discuss separately the chances of the remaining " lot" would be useless. Mus covite has, I am informed, been "put through the mill" with Joe Miller, and is likely to be reserved for the " Cup." Retail, Harioot, and Ireland's Eye are entitled to consideration. The first mentioned from his favour able weight, the second from her recent performance, and the last because he is in the Danebury stable. Teddington was declared not to start on Saturday. It may be remembered that a fortnight back I en deavoured, and I think successfully, to prove the hope lessness of his ohanee. His weight was crushing, and I am not surprised that he is scratched: The declaration, however, might have been made earlier. Having watched the tendency of speculation, and examined carefully the relative merits of the various competitors, I have selected the three undermentioned animals against the field : JOE MILLER, HOBBY HORSE, AND VINDEX. The judge's decision may be in accordance with the order in which I have set down their names ; and in making this assertion, I disclaim all pretensions to the spirit of prophecy or the gift of second sight. HARICOT I shall keep on the "safe side," and Retail I shall re serve as a cockboat. Pelion is in immense force for the Goodwood Cup. Ominous reports are in circulation respecting Rataplan. My present " fancy" is in favour of Pelion and Jouvence. Ambrose must not, however, be neglected. Before the day of running I shall refer further to this event. The races appointed for to-morrow require only brief discussion. The 300 Sovs. Sweepstakes will be carried off by Ilex. Thirty-nine "youngsters" are nominated for the Ham Stakes, including many dark horses of whom report speaks highly. From the public performers I select Boer and Sortie, and from the "dark division" Paxton and Baalbec. The Gratwicke Stakes is on paper a seeming certainty for Sittingbourne. Pharos may obtain second honours. Brigladoro and Bay Celia will make an interesting encounter for the Lavant Stakes. The Matches are not of sufficient importance to require observation. July 25. A FRESH MAN. _ . . _ P.S.—Doubts exist as to Dervish's starting for the North and South Biennial Stakes ; Vindex is said to be coughing, and a slight disposition is manifested to back Goorkah for the stakes. Should the report respecting Vindex be correct, I shall select Haricot in his place. ARRIVALS AT GOODWOOD. Chesterfield Cup.—Longbow, Ariosto, D.

THE GOODWOOD PLATE. We often hear complaints urged by artists in precious metals of the difficulty of obtaining a continuous supply of subjects at once novel and fitting. In the present case, however, Baron Marochetti, who designed and modelled the work which will be carried off by the winner of the Goodwood Cup, has been fortunate in hit ting upon a story new in itself, appropriate in its sub ject, and picturesque and chivalrous in its character. The scene represented is founded upon the fine old legend of the king of Bohemia, who, at the battle of Crecy, when he heard that the day was lost, ordered the bridle of his horse to be tied to the bridles of the horses of the two French knights who had accompanied him— the three so linked charging headlong into the ranks of the English, where they speedily found their fate. The helmet of the King of Bohemia, it will be remembered, was decorated with three ostrich feathers, and bore the motto of " Ich Dien," since famous as having been assumed by the Black Prince, and having continued the recognisance of the Prince of Wales down to the present time. In Baron Marochetti's composition . the King is alone represented as mounted, and in his agitation and impa tience waving his battle-axe. The appearance of age fired and invigorated by the enthusiasm of the moment is finely given. On each side of the monarch are the two pawing steeds of the knight, who are in the act of remounting after having fastened the bridles as indicated. The horses are admirably modelled, full of life and mettle, and the treatment of the knights, in the difficult postures imagined for them, although only one has his foot actu ally in the stirrup, shows Baron Marochetti's command over drawing in the figure. All three personages are clad in mingled chain and plate mail. The links of the former are very deftly imitated, and, indeed, the mi nutest details of the work are wrought out with great elaboration, while the pawing and prancing horses, the old king bursting with impatience, and the two dis mounted knights engaged with their unruly chargers, constitute altogether a clever, significant, and picturesque representation. The work is to be seen this day in the show-rooms of Mr. C. F. Hancock, No. 39, Bruton-street.

BATHING CASUALTIES. — Last week a gentleman, named Pitt, a resident of Jersey, visited with his family one of the bathing establishments in that island, and seeing apparently something the matter with two bathing machines that were in the sea at some dis tance, took up a telescope, by means of which he dis covered that the machines were filling with water from the flowing tide, and that the boys and horses at tending them were vainly attempting to drag the latter to shore. Mr. Pitt rushed into the sea, and met one of them, which had been dragged out of immediate danger. It contained two ladies, one of whom jumped into the water, and reached th e s h ore in safety ; Mr. Pitt went to the assistance of the other lady, but as she was out of danger she begged him to go to two ladies in the other machine, which was and likely to topple over. Mr. Pitt accordingly walkal and swam towards the second machine, which contained a mother and daughter. At the request of the latter, he saved the mother, by swimming and dragging her out of deep water ; and then returned to the assistance of the daughter • he was, however, t oo ex h aus t e d t o sw i m w ith her to shore, but other assistance was soon obtained, . and the whole party were got safe on land.

The demand ruled heavy, and prices were fully 2d per 81bs. lower than on Monday last. The Hamburgh sheep sold at an average of about 17s per head. There was a considerable increase in the arrivals of home-fed beasts, but there was a great deficiency in their general weight and condition. Notwithstanding that the attendance of buyers was good, the beef trade was in a very sluggish state, at a decline in the prices of Monday last of quite 2d per 81bs. The general top figure for beef was 4s 6d, but a few superior Scots realised 4s 8d per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 909 Scots and short horns ; from the northern grazing districts, 1,200 short horns ; from other parts of England, 700 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; and, from Scotland, 300 horned and polled Scots. We were heavily supplied with sheep, all kinds of which moved off slowly, at a fall in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight of quite 2d per 81bs. The general top figure for Downs was 5s per Blbs. The number of lambs was good, whilst the lamb trade was in a depressed state, and prices were fully 4d per 81bs lower than on Monday last. Calves, the supply of which was large, moved off slowly, at from 2d to, in some instances, 4d per 81bs less money. There was a very slow sale for pigs, the value of which had a downward tendency. s. d. s. d. 3 6 4 0 4,558 32,010 497 310 Per Blbs to sink the offals. s. d. s. d.

LIVERPOOL, JULY 24. By the Royal mail steamer Africa, Harrison commanier ' we have advi ces f rom N ew York to the 13th inst. She lids brought $877,933 in specie on freight. . _ The - steamer Atlantic arrived at New York on the 10th, and the steamer Arabia on the 13th, both from this port. . The President was on hiS journey from Washing ton to New York to inaugurate the Crystal Palace. His reception at the towns and cities on the route was very enthusiastic. The opening of the Exhi bition was to take place on the 14th. Several persons had been killed at Haverstraw by the blowing down of a large building. A new cotton factory at Attleborough, Massa chusetts, had been destroyed by fire, caused, it is reported, by lightning. A destructive fire had also occurred at Newark, New Jersey. The St. John's papers give lengthy accounts of the warm reception given to Dr. Kane and his Arctic expedition. A vessel from the Sandwich Islands had brought into San Francisco a man taken from the wreck of a Japanese junk found at sea, with a variety of singular articles of Japanese manufacture found on board. According to the account of the man, it was seven months and a half since the junk put to sea from one part of Japan for another. They were blown out to sea by a gale, dismasted, and most of their provisions and water lost. The rest of the crew had died one by one. The articles found on the junk have been brought to New York, and will be exposed in the Crystal Palace. Advices from Ifavannah to the Ist inst. an nounce the release of the Zulueta ' the owner of the Lady Suffolk, He had gon e t o Spain in com pany of a Mr. Barrow, with the intention of bring ing an action against the Captain-General for false imprisonment. We have Kingston, Jamaica, dates to the 27th ult. Legislative affairs remained, as before, in state quo. The weekly meetinc , of the Assembly was held on Monday and Tuesday, on which occa sions a quorum of seven generally adjourned the House to the following week. Sir Charles Grey is reported to have said that the refractory mem bers might amuse themselves for a month or two until he should have received instructions from the home Government. It was whispered, however, that a compromise between the Assembly and the Council was not improbable. The arrangement was said to be, that the Council agree to a re trenchment bill contemplating the reduction of salaries, on a graduated scale, according to the amount, instead of the taking off 20 per cent. on all public stipends irrespective of the amount, the Assembly pledging itself to pass no more salaries' retrenchment bills. The Governor continued, as he threatened, to release prisoners confined in the Penitentiary. Mining operations were being vi gorously prosecuted, and several tons of rich cop per had been shipped for England. The yellow fever continued to prevail at Kingston among the shipping. Accounts from Belize, Honduras, state that trade was unusually brisk. Although an extraordinary effort had been made to get out a great quantity of mahogany this year, yet, owing to the rains in March, April, and May—the tracking season — more than one-half of the wood cut remained in the bush. This had caused a considerable rise in prices. From Panama we have advices to the Ist inst. A native had assaulted an Englishman, and on the latter resenting the attack the natives threatened a disturbance. Such was the feeling existing against foreigners that no barrister would assist the En glishman in obtaining legal redress. Letters from Bogota, received at Panama, state that an attempt was made, on the Bth ult., to raise a revolution at the capital. Don Florentino Gonzales was assaulted by the mob, and dangerously wounded. General Herrera attempted to call out the troops, but was prevented by General Nielo. President Obando was seriously unwell, and General Lopez was dis charging the duties. General Herrera had been appointed Secretary of State in the place of Cuellar. Jose Maria Plata had been nominated Governor of Bogota. The commercial code has been passed. The steamer Illinois had arrived at New York, with advices from San Francisco to the 16th ult., and 1,835,714 dollars in specie on freight. The accounts from the mining district were very satis factory. In Calaveras county the quartz mining companies were all doing well. On Amadore creek, six miles from Jackson, lies one of the richest quartz veins in California, and within the short distance of two miles are seven quartz mills ac tively employed in crushing the rich auriferous rock. The Amadore Company No. 1., consisting of nine working men, which has been in success ful operation since 1850, have sunk a shaft over 100 feet in depth, and even at this distance from the surface the vein yields handsomely. The Spring Hill Company consists of six persons ; they have usually in operation six pestles, and were engaged' in extracting the rock from the bottom of a shaft 45 feet below the surface. The Keystone Company, consisting of 12 persons, took out in one week upwards of 2,000 dollars. The miners at San Juan were also doing well. There were about 250 persons at work there, not one of whom com plained. The claims owned by Kintz and Com pany had realised upwards of $16,000 in two months, and were paying, on an average, upwards of $1,200 a week. At Mokelumne-hill the miners had never been so regularly employed, nor better pleased with the results of their labour. At Murphy's Camp, since the introduction of water there, men no longer speak of their day's work by ounces, pounds being the phrase. Numerous claims were yielding . from 91b. to 151 b. weight of gold per week. An immense lump of gold, weigh ing between 451 b. and 501 b., had been found near Nevada. New diggings had been discovered at Hangtown. $5,000 was taken out in the first three -days after the discovery. Four buckets of earth are said to have yielded respectively $5OO, $430, $3BO, and $360. Duels are very prevalent in California. Three had taken place in one week near San Francisco. The population of San Fran cisco was upwards of 50,000. In June, 1847, it was only 459. Another of Joaquin's band had been killed, but no clue could be obtained of the where abouts of Joaquin. The accounts from the agricul tural districts were very cheering. A head of barley, plucked from a field on the Toulemne river, was found to contain 200 full-formed grains ; the stalk was 6 feet high. Oats from the same branch mea sured from 7 to 8 feet high, with heads from 12 to 15 inches long. On a farm located in Dry-creek valley, in Calaveras, the wheat is said to stand upwards of 7 feet high, with heads 6& inches long. A Chinaman had been put to death by his country men for theft. It appears that he had stolen $4OO, for which he was sentenced to receive 25 lashes and to have his queue cut off. This he resisted to the last, begging of them even to kill him, so that he might die with this honourable appendage. He was afterwards given in charge to some of his coun trymen, who again whipped him and cut off his left ear. He was then marched off for San Fran cisco in charge of another party; but, getting tired of their prisoner, they led him a little aside from the road, and finally disposed of him by shooting him through the head. A fair amount of business had been transacted in the San Francisco market. Pieces of merchandise showed little or no variation. Money commanded from 3 to 5 per cent. per month. Exchange on London, 10 day bills, 461 to 47 ; 60 days, 47 to 4 71 ; Par is, 10 days, 4 80 ; GO day s , 4 90. The leading feature in the New York stock mar ket was the steady increase in th e pr i ce o f Govern ment Bonds. Sixes of '67 had advanced State Stocks were also in good dem an d, a t inn. proved prices. Money abundant, a t 6 per cent. on demand loans. Exchange on London, 109 a to 109/. ; Paris, 5 15 to 5 121 ; Amsterdam, 411 to 41/ ; Frankfort, 40i to 41; and Hamburg, 364 to 36g. The cotton market had scarcely varied during the three days; the turn, however, being in buyers' favour. The sales were 5,000 bales. Notwithstanding the un favourable English accounts, the flour market main tained a firm tone, and sales were freely made at $4 62ic. to $4 682 e. for the ordinary shipping de scriptions. Wheat in good demand, at 112 c. to 118 c. per bushel for Ohio red, and 122 c. to 126 c. for white. Indian corn quiet, with no export demand. Pork steady, at $l5 50c. for mess to $l2 62c. to $l2 75c. for prime. Beef in good demand, without change in price. Butter and cheese steady. The market for pig-iron was unsettled, prices ranging from $29 to $3O 50c. Freights to London—Flour, 2s. 3d. per barrel ; oil cake, 2s. per barrel ; measurement goods, 255. to 30s. per ton ; heavy goods, oil, &c., 20s. to 255. per ton. THE AOOOUNIANT-GENERAL'S OFFICE IN CHANCERY. "Is not the Court of Chancery open I Come all ye who labour under the burthen of fraud or oppression, enter the eternal gates of the Court of Chancery 1" Mr. Brougham in the House of Commons, May 8, 1818. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sts,—l have a poor relation, who, under an order of the Court of Chancery, is entitled to an annuity of about 401., payable half-yearly, on the 24th of February-, and the 24th of August ; but for the payment which be comes due on the 24th of August, she has every year to wait till the 2d of November. I have also a cousin who is entitled to a rent of about 2501., which the Accountant-General was some years ago ordered to pay him by quarterly payments on the four usual days ; but he has always to wait till the 2d of November for the quarterly payment which becomes due the 29th of September. I am myself entitled to the dividends of some Reduced Annuities, which, if the fund were not in Chancery, I could receive at the Bank on the 10th or 12th of Octo ber ; but now I must wait till the 2d of November before I can get them. There are many thousands of suitors subjected to these and similar inconveniences, which are surely un just and oppressive, and ought to be deemed intolerable, unless the public good requires them. Yet the only reasons which the Lord Chancellor gives for their con tinuance are such as it is impossible to listen to with re spect or even with patience. They are an outrage upon I common sense and common decency. Every year his lordship issues a general order for closing the Accountant-General's office from the 19th of August till the 28th of October (which, for all purposes of real business, means the 2d of November, the first day of Michaelmas Term) ; and the reasons for issuing such order are stated on the face of it in the following recital :—" Whereas it is proper that the accounts kept by the Accountant-General of this Court should be exa mined and compared, in order to settle the same ; and whereas it will require considerable time to perfect such examination, and it is necessary that a time should be appointed for closing the books of the said Accountant- General for the purposes aforesaid." Now, sir, the Accountant-General (except that he cannot misapply or of himself dispose of the funds and cash placed in his name) is neither more nor less than the banker and stockbroker of the suitors of the court. It is no doubt necessary that his books should be accu rately kept and their accuracy ascertained, and most splendidly, not to say enormously, does the country pay Lord J. Russell's accomplished and immoveable cousin the present Accountant-General (whose public spirit would " freeze a salamander"), for seeing this done. But fancy, if you can, the Bank of England, or any private banking-house, or any firm of stockbrokers, giving notice to their customers that their offices will be altogether closed for ten weeks, to enable them to " examine and compare, in order to settle" their accounts for the cur rent year. Would not any persons that could issue such a notice be considered fit to become inmates of Bethleni or St. Luke's ? Yet this is the course of the Court of Chancery—part of that admirable system of administer ing justice under which Lord St. Leonards (one of Mr. Disraeli's " great statesmen"), declares that the country has arrived at an unparalleled degree of prosperity ! Well, indeed, might Sir Samuel Romilly observe to Lord Campbell—" The number of suitors in Chancery is no thing compared to the community, or the Court would long ago have been abolished as a nuisance." But the thing is really worse than it appears. The Accountant-General and his clerks are bad enough in all conscience (nor is this to be wondered at, seeing that the pernicious system of gratuities was retained in the Accountant-General's office for nearly twenty years after it was abolished everywhere else) ; but still they arelnot such imbecile creatures as the Lord Chancellor's order would make them appear. They do not require ten weeks every autumn to examine the year's accounts, and, in fact, they do not consume three weeks out of the ten in any such dull work. The rest of the time they are to be found, not in Chancery-lane or Threadneedle-street, but at country seats, at watering places, and on the Continent. The recital I have copied is only a pious fraud—an annual work of fiction with which we poor suitors may entertain ourselves, while we are kept out of our money—in fact, a mere lie, intended to deceive that many-headed but unreflecting dupe, the. public, and signed by the Lord Chancellor only as a matter of course. If written with candour and truth, it would be expressed in some such terms as the following : " Whereas this Court thinks fit that the Accountant- General and his clerks should have many holidays, and deems it inevitable that they should all take their holidays at once." This, however, would be seen to be too bad, and there fore the Court is driven to the hard necessity of making the Accountant-General and his clerks seem a little worse than they are, in order to enable them to steal away for six weeks' or two months' holidays, under the false pretence that they are all the while examining ac counts in Chancery-lane. In the middle of the nineteenth century this is our administration of equity— this our public morality ! _ _ it is, I conceive, impossible to be guilty of a contempt of Court in writing or speaking of these matters. What ever may be the amount of contempt, public or private, which such abuses may call forth, there can be no guilt in it. The offices of the Court of Chancery were all, until recently, a disgrace to the country, and the Ac countant• General's office a disgrace to all the rest—a thing fit only to be annexed to the odious Ecclesiastical Courts, and to share with them the fate of the Star• Chamber and the Palace Court. Out of the Court of Chancery, who would believe that an office instituted for such purposes as the Accountant- General's, would be absolutely closed against the suitorg for a hundred working days every year (which is what the four vacations amount to), in order that the officials might all take their holidays simultaneously ? Or who would believe that, at the best of times, while the Bank of England and all private bankers pay cheques from 9 till 4 (some of them till 5), and even the office of the Accountant in Bankruptcy is open from 10 till 4, Mr. Russell (who is about the best paid public func tionary in the kingdom) cannot deliver out cheques for more than three hours a day—viz., from 11 till 2 f Does any man in the country doubt that the Accountant- General's office (if it must continue to exist) ought to be open for a reasonable number of hours every working day in the year just as the bank and private bankers' and stockbrokers' offices are ? In November last, Lord St. Leonards, in the House of Lords, after acknowledging the justice of the com plaints which had been made respecting the close of the Accountant-General's office for the autumn, promised that "arrangements should be made to meet the just demands of the public and to clear the Court from that imputation." But he resigned the great seal, having done nothing on the subject. Sir Samuel Romilly w c ied have corrected the abuse without a speech. Lord St. Leonards makes a very nice speech, and leaves the abuse untouched. We have now Lord Cranwortb, whose perfect good sense on all ordinary topics it is so delightful to listen to, but whose adversaries represent him as being hope lessly deficient in executive talent. They seem to think that his Lordship is no more equal to the great task of law reform than an Addison or a Roscoe would be to the work of a Luther or a John Knox. I sincerely trust and believe that they reckon without their host ; and that at all events, when he is asked to sign the gene ral order for closing the Accountant-General's office this long vacation, he will have courage enough to pronounce the monosyllable "No." remain,l beg sir, aypoolliorgviseeryfoorb obedient n i t en s g e r t v h an o t f , this letter, and COMMON SENSE.

The watch committee have refused to accede to the request, and the consequence is that about thirty of the men have resigned, and about fifty refuse to do duty, but will not resign. The watch committee have this day been sitting to receive applications for the vacant situations, but they had not had a single ap plication. PRINCE ALBERT AND PSALMODY.—The Christian Times says :—" It was lately announced by the court newsman, that a piece of sacred music, composed by the King of Hanover, had been performed in the Chapel Royal. This occurrence was nearly coincident with another, which is not likely to reach the world through the medium just referred to, but which may not on that account be less interesting to many of our readers —we allude to the fact that the Prince Consort has presented a dissenting congregation with two pieces music of his Royal Highness's composition.
