Look at the - result of last night's Division ) ! What does it disclose? nOtiTi th - shuding the m.mn•evasion of many, an d the un . faithfulness of some. Why, to put the fact of the ease plainly before the public, it discloses this positively a nd unmistakeably : that—in spite of A diplomatic crisis hAs occurred at Constanti nople. The Belgian Envoy, M. BLOUNDEEL DE COELEBROECK, has received his passports from the Ottoman Government, with an intimation that his room will be far more acceptable than his company. His Muscovite tendencies were well known, but it is more than hinted that it was not merely for abstract opinions, but for direct in trigues against the interees of those to whom he was accredited, as the represent dive of King LtoroLD, that he has been so summarily cx• pelted ! It is positively affirmed that the object which the expelled envoy has been striving to accomplish w aß the union of the Principalities , and the for tuation o f a Ro u manian Kingdom, under the sovereignty of a Prince of one of the European families. The House of CosußG has generally looked sharply after every opening, for ele vating one of its cadets to a Royal station. It has a keen scent after possible vacan cieg; and we may safely venture to speculate on the quarter from whence the hints by Lord JOHN Ru . ssELL, as to the importance of selecting the Moldavo-Wallachian sovereign f rom the scions of European Royal Houses, emanated. King LEO roLD thinks of that "poor little Flanders," and how nice a thing it would be to elevate him to such a position ; and surely he has bid high for the most sweet voices of the Great Powers ! He has, a strong claim on the gratitude of the CZAR, for aiding and assisting in extricating "Holy Russia" from the dilemma in which she was placed, and bringing about the lame and nan SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 1 1857 icapotent conclusion of the war, so earnestly de precated by many English hearts. Besides his influence in producing the Union, and pledges as to future good behaviour, might go far to secure the. Russian vote and interest. England and the English, need scarcely be canvassed by a COBURG. The irresponsible Minister will; of course, do as he thinks proper, without consulting the opinions or wishes of the people, and they, GOD help them, have only to grin and bear it. The voice of pub lic opinion is suppressed, until too late, to avert the evil. As to Austiia, has he not "friends at Court," through the Duchess DE BRABANT, the cousin of the Red Emperor, and also iu consequence of the active part which he took in playing the Austrian game. While the contemplated Prussian al liances, the 8,0001. per annum and 40,0001. hard cash, transferred to Prince FREDERICK.. WILLIAM with the eldest born daughter of England, will ensure the co-operation of CLICQUOT. Besides, is there not another Prin cess whom it may be desirable to obtain with an equal appanage for the Prince of ORANGE, first Cousin to the AUTOCRAT ? Her hand may be bartered, and England may be taxed as a make weight in the bargain that is to consign a sceptre to the Count DE FLANDRES. It only remains, then, to conciliate Louis NAPOLEON in order to render the Belgian cock tail first favourite for the Danubian Cup. There are many ways by which this- may be attained, and we have no doubt that every iron is placed in the fire—every nerve strained f to produce the desired result. The connexion with the House of ORLEANS may be used,' as well as that with Great Britain. It is stated that England has become the humble suitor to France for assistance against YEH and his poisoners. This must unquestionably gratify the amour propre of the EMPEROR. It will be a great card in his hand, whether he deems it expedient to comply with or reject the application. It is in the Independance Beige that the intelli gence is first communicated, as well as the time exactly specified for the visit of the EMPEROR and EMPRESS to Osborne, which, by the way,. we pre dicted some weeks since. All these things con stitute strong circumstantial evidence that LEo- POLD has what is popularly termed "a finger in the pie," and that the acts or rather the intrigues of the plenipotentiary were not altogether opposed to the will of his master. The Ottoman Cabinet may, however, well be excused for the summary expulsion of the party who has so grossly disregarded his diplomatic privileges. We do not, however, anticipate any serious difficulty. LEOPOLD possesses extraordi nary facilities for wriggling out of the consequences of any serious escapade ; of this we have had unequivocal testimony in his recent conduct in reference to the Religious Corporations Bill, and we have no doubt that he will exhibit similar worldly wisdom in the present instance. If the charges against M. BLONDEAL are not susceptible of the cleaerest proof, they will be emphatically deniel—if otherwise, he will be unhesitatingly repudiated, while some compensation will be pro vided for his injured honour. It is now clear that the Porte perceives the coming danger and is resolved to exercise the utmost vigilance, and as being " fore-warned" it is also fore-armed, we may anticipate that the Belgian dodge will go for nothing, and that no serious perils may be anticipated from that quarter for the future. The Revenue Returns for the year and quarter ending the 30th June have been duly published, and will be found in another part of this day's impression. They are of a very satisfactory cha racter, so far as the financial condition of th• country is concerned. They, however, fully con firm the opinions which we expressed respecting the statement made by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer on the 13th February, and prove be yond the possibility of doubt that the additional Income-tax of 2d. in the pound, and also the ex tra duties on tea, coffee, and sugar, were by no means required by the exigencies of the Treasury, and that they were obtained by means of repre sentations which, in a private individual, would be very sharply criticised. Indeed, Sir G. C. LEWIS has tendered his own evidence to the same effect, by gratuitously undertaking to pay off the whole of the redemption money for tha Sound Dues, 1,125,000/., and refraining to avail himself of the privilege of liquidating the amount by instalments spread over a term of years as he might easily have done, and thus saving not only a heavy burden from being imposed on the revenue of the present year, but also preventing the monetary disturbances likely to arise front the exportation of so large an amount of specie ! It is true that there is a deficiency for tha pre sent quarter, which might have been greater, but for the fact that the payment of duties on tea, coffee, and sugar, were, whenever practicable, deferred during the last quarter, and that, con sequently, large sums wero received at the re= duced rates during the first week of April. Suffi cient has, however, appeared, to establish on the most conclusive evidence that there was at all events no necessity for the Crusade against the teapot, the coffee-pot, and the pie-dish, on which Sir G. C. LEWIS entered with such unequivocal gusto. All his exertions have palpably been for the bene fit of the Moneyocraey, and in opposition to the interests of the industrirl population of the coup; try. And it remains to be seen whether the representatives of the people will endorse a policy so partial in its operation, and so injurious in its results ! As wa have stated there is a deficiency on the quarter ! This amounts to 263,2411. But on the other hand, and despite that falling off, there is an increase on the year of 1,827,042/., the total receipts for the year being no less than 72,060,821/., against 70,233,779/. in the pre ceding year—andthatof the quarter 17,274,7621., against 17,548,0031. iu 1856. Looking to the particular items, we find that under the head of Customs, there has been an improvement, both on the year and quarter, on the former of 472,0241., on the latter of 280,6251. On this there ought, according to ordinary calcu lations, to have been a deficiency to something about the amount of the increase, from the re ductions that came into operation. But these, it appears, were far more than counterbalanced by the rush of payments in the beginning of April. In the Excise, there is an increase on the year of 111,222/., but a decrease on the quarter of 501,0001. This is mainly attributable to malt and hops. It was anticipated that the reduction from 4s. to 2s. Bd. would have occasioned a loss of some '700,000/. on the former article alone. It has, however, been but one-third of that amount. We cannot, however, attribute this satisfactory state of affairs to increased consumption, but rather as iu tea, coffee, and sugar, to the postponement of pay ments during the last quarter, in order to obtain the benefit of the reduced duties, and the consequent diminution of stocks and heavy payments in the beginning of April. The collection of t he hop duty was pAB, postponed, and this, it is said, ac counts Pir nearly a quarter of a million of the deficie - 4c y. In the Stamps the increase for the year 302,5011., the decrease for the quarter 7,5921: The former is doubtless owing to the gradual de velopment of the succession duties, which the Chancellor of the Exchequer believes will even tually produce 1,200,0001., although only 500,000/. was last year received therefrom. On the Taxes there is a decrease on the year of 61., and on the quarter of 19,0261. These are tp to ascribed to the stringency of collection, rather than to the produce of the impost. The Property Tar, the great source of direct contribution to the exigencies of the Exchequer, shows an increase on the year of 980,7701., and on the quarter, ❑otwithstanding the reduction of the so-called war 9d., of 78,7391. This is, however, exceptional. There are large arrears in course of collection, and few hove as yet been obliged to satisfy the claims of the col lecto rs at the reduced rate. The Post-office shows an increase on the year of 76,8481.—a reduction on the quarter of 41,0001. The Crown lands an improvement on the year of 2,3411., while the quarter remains in static quo ; while in the miscellaneous there is a deficiency on the year of 118,6591., and on the quarter of 14,0371. On the whole the returns are eminently satisfactory to all, save those whom they prove to have been guilty of a suppressio veri, which, in the case of private individuals, might be deemed approximating to the case of receiving money (we shall not say on false pretences, but) on very un• fair and unfounded. statements. " THE CHRISTMAS CAROL." READ BY ITS AUTROR. Last evening St. Martin's Hall, Long-acre, was cramined-A-literally crammed, in the Body of it, in the Stalls, and in the Galleries—by an au di ence assembled to hear Mr. Charles Dickens read his Christmas Carol. It seems very cold-blooded to put the matter simply thus, in a way so perversely and miserably matter-of-fact. Rather let us say, then, that—Glorious Charl es Di c k ens rea d hi s im mortal Christmas Carol yesterday ! Adding, that he read it to an audience as attentive as it was en thusiastic. We don't remember ever to have witnessed a more stirring ovation than the one accorded by that audience to the most popular writer of our generation. His appearance upon the platform was hailed by round after round of applause—applause so earnest, prolonged, and sustained that it alarost seemed to threatea top )st pone the Reading indefinitely. However, the Reading did come on at last, and having continued (with only five minutes interrupt ion, about midway) from 8 p.m. to very nearly 10.30 p.m., the close of it was the signal for an outburst of cheers, mingled with the waving of hats and handkerchiefs. There was a genial "grasp of the hand" in the look of every kind face turned towards the platform, and a "God bless him" in every one of those ring ing cheers—the last but an echo, in truth, of the memorable benediction of Tiny Tim with which that matchless "Carol in Prose," it will be reinern bared, terminateq. It is hardly necessary to ob serve that throughout the two hours and a half oc cupied by the reading of that little golden master piece, Mr. Dickens was interrupted again and again by reiterated roars of laughter 1 And no wonder; for apart from the glory of the book itself, there were the marvellous mimetic powers of the author reading it —giving piquancy to the dialogue, poignancy to every jest, and a new provocative to merriment in the turn of every humourous expres sion. The most telling bits of all were unquestion ably and beyond any manner of doubt—the Christmas Dinner of the Cratchets—the Dance at Fezziwig's—and the after-dinner fun at Scrooge's Nephew's ! We can't, for the life of us, fancy people laughing morn than they did last night at the calves of old Pezziwig's legs "shining like moons" in all parts of the dance, or of his ulti mately seeming to wink with them when he "cut" Peter's shirt collars too were, in both sense of the phrase, an enormous success whenever mentioned— from the time when we were told that he longed " to show his linen in the fashionable parks" to the climax of it, when Martha observed, that a lord she saw the day before was about as tall as Peter 1 Whereupon the said. Peter pulls his collars up so high, that "you could not have seen his head if you bad been there !" How the audience roared, too, at our old friend the fiddler coming in and making an orchestra of the desk, and " tuning—. like fifty stomach-aches !" And at every syllable of the account of the way in which that incorrigible Topper went after Scrooge's niece's sister in the great game of Blindman's-buff ! It is wholly idle, however, it is altogether super fluous to particularise. The satire Reading from first to last went off—unaffectedly, be it said, in the strictest meaning of the word—to admiration. The crowded and appreciative audience were de lighted—thoroughly. And so, for that matter, must the Author have been himself, by the whole manner of his reception. It was a treat to every one present, and one of a very rare and memorab'e description. The occasion of this Reading, it should be ob served, was one constituting it the Second in the attractive Series of Entertainments arranged by the fri en d s a nd admirers of the late Mr. Douglas Jerrold to swell the funds of a grateful Testimo nial —.in his Remembrance ! QUEEN'S CONCERT BOOMS, riANOVER- SQUARE. Herr Kuhe and Madame Bassano gave their annual concert at these rooms on Monday at two o'clock. The rooms were crowded. The list of vocalists included some of the best concert singers of the day, among them Madame Bassano, Miss Measent, Madame Claia Novell°, the new Swedish singer Mdlle. Hertba de Westerbrand, Herr Reichardt, Signor F. Lablache, ned Mr. Sims Reeves. The instrumental performers were also of a high class; they included Signor Piatti on the violoncello, Herr Engel on the harmonium, and Herr g u i l e on the r ianoforte. This gentleman is a brilliant and finished performer and was lludly applauded in all his efforts. He played a duet from Beethoven for the piano and violin, "Le Reveil des Fees," and a very brilli an t polka, performed for the first time on this occasion. He sub• sequently played some of Mendelssohn's beautiful Lieder Ohne Worte. Signor Piatti achieved his usual success on the violoncello in a piece of his own composition, and Herr Engel's performances on the harmonium are too well known to need criticism. Madame Ciara Novena and Madame Bassano sang some Italian morceaux with taste and execution. Mr. Sims Reeves sang Beethoven's " Adelaide" with his usual skill and expression, and also the favourite serenade from Tennyson's " Maud," ar ranged by B e lle. There were many other attractive pieces in the programme; among them several trios and quartette. The audience appeared highly gratified, and the concert may be considered to have been a decided success. fig DEATH OF THE DUKE OF MARL- 8010 rGir. This morning on the assembling of the Cambridge election committee, Mr. Deasy, the chairman, an• nounced that he bad received a telegraphic despatch from the Marcitiii orßlandford; stating•that he was prevented attending the sitting of the committee, in consequence of the death of his father the Duke of Marl borough. LNTEST NEW s; A Paris letter in the Independance of Brussels, says :—" The following is a fact the correctness of which I can guarantee. Lord Palmerston two days ago had a long conference with Count de Persigny, when the English minister pointed out to the French ambassador that the situation of affairs in India was such that a considerable display of force had become necessary. His lordship added that it would be impossible for England to send fresh reinforcements to China, and demanded for this latter war, in case it should continue, the active co-operation of France. Count de Persigny pro mised to transmit Lord Paln3erstota's request with out delay to the Emperor. Will the British cabi net succeed in obtaining the aid it asks for ? that I cannot say. What leads to the belief that every thing that the Imperial government can possibly do will be done is the constantly increasing good understanding between the two governments. I think I may now depart from the reserve I have hitherto maintained on the subject of the visit of the Emperor and Empress to England ; their Ma jesties wiil arrive at the Isle of Wight on the 28th July, to pass a week at Osborne House," P.A RLIAII EN TARP DIVISION.

Sheridan Mr. Repton Mr. Shafto Lord March Lord Ashley was shut out as he intended to vote against the ballot. all that evasion and all that unfaithfulness — the Advocates of the Ballot number just about One-Third of the Whole Rouse of Commons ! No longer a mere handful observe, able upon an occasion adroitly managed to surprise a very small house into a microscopic majority, in support of the annual motion of the member for Bristol, say in between the Darby and the Oaks ! Nailing of this kind any longer—but a compact phalanx of just upon tTO hundred representatives. So that the Ballot, after all, has made an advanco, a decided and appreciable advance in the New P a rli a ment-. " After all "—viz., after the short memories of some and the small courage of others— after the paltry non-attendance of Evaders, and the impudent recalcitration of the Recanters ! There is my Lord JOHN RUSSELL, for example, what in the name of Truth, of Honesty, of Fair Dealing can we possibly say of him and of his astounding conduct yesterday ? What—but that he and his brother (Lord CHARLES, the Sergeant at-Arms) have regularly done [there is uo other phrase for it,]—have regularly done the metropo litan constituency. We assert it, we repeat it— we are not talking at random—we maintain that the course pursued by those two noble brothers in regard to the question of the Ballot is a course irreconcilable with one's notions of perfect candour and magnanimity. Recollect what took place on Lady-day last in the City of London Remember the meeting then, on that 25th of March, 1857, held by the inhabitants of the Ward of Broad-street, there, at the North and South American Coffee-house. Observe ! we have forgotten neither time nor place—and cer tainly we have. not forgotten what gave a certain degree of importance to both, namely, the ,words that fell, there and then, from the lips of Lord JOHN'S brother, Lord CHARLES RUSSELL, "the Sergeant-at-Arms of the British House of Com mons ! What were those words ? They were " I will state to you a fact," said Lord CHARLES RUSSELL to the elec tors of the City of London, assembled upon that occasion, on Wednesday, the 25th %leech, 1857, at the North and South Ame rican Coffee-house ! Mark the phrase—" I will ,tate to you a fact ; I have autho rity for stating that the Vice-President and [treasurer of the Ballot Society have both of them mpressed their determination to support Lord J. RUSSELL in the coming election, so satisfied are they with his conduct. After all, I want to know is LORD JOHN RUSSELL so determined an oppo eant of the Ballot as some here seem to suppose ? In the abstract I am, myself, in favour of open voting ; but what made me a convert to the Bel ot was seeing the enormous amount of coercion exercised in an election when I was candidate— and I have heard Lord JOHN RUSSELL say, when he was contesting Devonshire, that he saw things hen which, though in the abstract he was opposed to the Ballot, led him to believe it pos sible that he might be driven to it." Indeed, Lord CHARLES RUSSE LL declared further than this, ho asserted that what Lord JOHN wanted first of all was to carry a large extension of the franchise : and added then—" When two men out of seven, instead of one out of seven had the power of voting, the argument against Ballot would not be quite so strong 'n his brother's mind as it was !" Very well. Now recollecting all this, and re collecting that at the time those words were uttered, that at the time that declaration was volunteered by Lord JOHN RussELL's Brother he election of Lord Joax was a matter very loubtful indeed, and not all to be calculated upon ! Remembering that, and remembering hat a little while afterwards Lord JOHN was brought in the " third" upon the list of the sue-. !essful candidates, by a generous and not by a 'actions combination—What, we ask, does the country think of the Noble Lord the Member for the City of London now ? Yow that his conduct in reference to the Ballot can be viewed dis thretly between the cross lights thrown upon it by two very different speeches—by the speech leads on Wednesday, the 25th of March, by Lord CHARLES RUSSELL, and by the speech de livered on Tuesday, the 30th of June, by Lord JOHN RUSSELL ? We leave the question to the conscience of the general community. And in reference to the Times? Well, the story there is as old as the hills. It is a thing quite notorious—an inevitable necessity, as such universally recognised. The Times, in regard to Reform, iu regard to the Corn-laws, in regard to everything—says obstinately Nay, until the period has arrived when everybody else says Yea, and then the Times says Yea too. It has been so before. It is so now. It threatens to be so always. The Times was dead against Free Trade until every thing combined to show plainly that Free Trade at last must as a matter of certainty be trium phant. And then—at the eleventh hour and three-quarters, and fourteen minutes, and fifty nine seconds—the Times veered round dead against Protection. It will be the same, in due course, with the Ballot—" in due course," ob serve ! Not sooner and not later. We are now at just about the tenth hour in regard to the Ballot. That we are at that, the diviSion of last night demonstrates incontestably. Consequently, when, politically speaking, there shall have elapsed one hour more, and three quarters and fourteen minutes and fifty-nine seconds, and perhaps half the beat of a pendulum besides—whirr I round the Times will inevitably o "For " the Ballot, and proclaim it a "great fact." We can wait for all this now calmly and confidently. The minority of 189 is at once our solace and our encouragement.

The universal enthusiasm with which her Ma jesty and the illustrious members of the family were received presented a scene such as has seldom been witnessed in this country. The demonstrations by the townspeople on the occasion of the opening were trifling indeed as compared with those with which her Ma jesty was greeted on this occasion. The whole city during the Royal progress presented one uninterrupted furore of excitement ma enthusiasm. FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. The camp of Chalons, situate about nine miles from the town of that name, will be inaugurated on the Ist September. The troops who are to take part in the manoeuvres are composed of 17,000 in fantry and 6,000 cavalry. General Regnault do St. Jean d'Angely is charged with the command. The Emperor has given orders for the construction of a railway to unite the camp and the town, and which can be cheaply made from the flat nature of the ground. His Majesty will be at the camp for the opening of the manoeuvres. M. Mauceaux, Secretary-General of the Minister of the Interior, will, it is said, have under his direc tion the Department of Public Security, at the head of which was M. Collet-Meygret. The latter leaves for Lille on Saturday, to enter on his new duties as Prefect of the Nord. By telegraphic despatch from Marseilles, we have news from Algiers to the 2;th. On the 24th the M‘Mahon division attacked and took the vil lage of Icherinen after a shirp resistance. The chiefs afterwards came and made their submission. BOURSE, JUNE 30, Two o'clock.—The muket has again been very flat, and prices lower. The options have been made on Rente Three per Cents. at 671 r. 65e., and the premiums have been lost. Threes have been done at 67fr. 75c., and declined to 77fr. 65c. ; Mobilier varied from 1,142 fr. 50e. to I,l3Cir. ; Lyons, 1,487 fr. 50c. to 1,491 fr. 26c.; Mediterranean, at 1,910 fr. ; New Lyons, 857 fr. 50c.

The King is now employed in reducing the native army as rapidly as possible, and importing Swiss. This foreign recru►ting is to go on until the German troops form a body of 25,000 men. General Filangieri (Prince Satriano) is recom mended to leave Naples and live at Vienna. The Government is still uneasy about what is called the Muratist party. It was generally believed in Naples that a soldier had attempted tho life of the King at Gaeta, but no one knew the particulars, and it was impossible to obtain any reliable infor mation on this subject. At all events there is no doubt concerning the disbanding of some regiments. The Concordat is at work, and the priests make their reports accordingly ; at the same time the people generally are ignorant of the new eccle siastical laws, as they have not been published. SWITZERLAND. The Federal Council of Switzerland has just ad dressed a circular to the cantonal governments, announcing tLe exchange of the ratifications of the treaty relative to Neuchatel. " Thus," says the the council, "has an affair which threatened the confederation with serious complications and dangers received, with the aid of Providence, a so lution as advantageous as it is honourable." The council declares that the solution is due to the high wisdom and moderation of the mediating powers, and to the spirit of eqUity which prevailed in the appreciation of difficulties." It says that in virtue of the treaty the canton of Neuchatel will occupy in the eyes of the European powers the same position in the confederation as all other cantons, and though the fact was never doutbful to Switzer land, it thinks the admission of it by those powers a matter of great importance. THE PORTE AND TIM BELGIAN MINISTER. CONSTANTINOPLE, June 20.—The Journal de Constantinople, of the 17th inst., contains in its official part the following communication :-- " In the evening of the 15th inst., by order of his Majesty the Sultan, Ali Ghalib Pasha, Minister of Foreign Affairs, sent to M. Blondel Van Esselbiuck, the Belgian Minister, his passports, the Sublime Porte being unable to continue its relations with his person. The Sublime Porte, at the same time, announced to him that she would resume her former relations with the Royal Legation immediately after his departure." To any one who does not know this place a step like this, by which the representative of a friendly Power is sent away, must seem extraordinary and incompatible with the received usages of the law of nations, but every one who is acquainted with the circumstances, and is really desirous that the treaty of Paris, which recognises Turkey as a member of the European family of States, should not be a farce, must applaud the resolution of the Turkish Government, and will see in it only a measure of strict self-defence; Already during the war, or rather during the complications which ultimately led to it, the Bel gian Minister made himself rather conspicuous by his strong Russian sympathie , , which might have teen less openly avowed by the representative of a friendly Power. However, no notice was taken of tit's by the Turkish Government, but during the war the Belgian Minister became notoriously the centre of all the inttiaues which were got up to dis credit the allies and the Turks, and most of the spurious news circulated here to the prej udice of the latter was traced to the same source. There are many persons who maintain that it was from this selfsame source that the Russian paper Le Nord got most of its most edifying information. i. The time immediately after the conclusion of peace was too much taken up by other matters to think of the Belgian Minister, and he and his oier activity were forgotten, but he has managed to put himself again into the foreground. While the firman for the convocation of the Divans ad hoc in the Danubian Principalities was being discussed at Constantinople he went on a tour to those provinces, and began there a gratuitous and un called-for agitation in favour of the union, assuring the people that the European great Polders were agreed about the union, and letting them understand that they had even made up their minds to put the Count of Flanders as sovereign over the new-State. These facts are not, bahed alone on the reports of the local authorities, *hi) informed the Turkish Government of the excite ment produced by such assertions of one of the re presentatives of the European Powers, but they were • likewise confirmed by the accredited agents of other Powers in those provinces, whose reports had been communicated to the Turkish Govern ment. Under these circumstances, the Turkish Govern ment made, through its Charge d'Affai rs , a remon strance to the Ministry at Brussels, and was as sured that, if it made an official complaint,' M. Blonde]. should be recalled. This was done ; but in the meantime, it is supposed, a higher influence mixed itself up in the question, and the Ministry refused to comply with the request which it:had called forth itself. It was only after this refusal, and after having come to the conviction that such barefaced interference in purely internal matters, not concerning Belgium at all, could not be tole rated, that the Turkish Government came to the resolution to send the Belgian Minister his pass port, declaring his readiness to maintain its friendly relations with that country as soon as the person who bad made himself so obnoxious should be_re moved. REINFORCEMENTS FOR INDIA• This morning the following troops commenced embarking for India :- 241 Dragoon Guards ..., ......... 7OO men. 3d Dragoon Guards 7th Fusiliers 60th Rifles (3d battalion) 88th Regiment .... 1,000 „ Rifle Brigade (3d battalion) Draughts, about 8,400 ram.

THE MEDICAL BILLS IN PARLIAMENT. SUPPOSED DIALOGUE BETWEEN LORD PALMEBSTON AND THE MEDICOS. Scene in Downing -street. L. P.—Well, gentlemen, what is it you want ? Ist Medico—Why, your lordship, we find that the guineas don't drop into our pockets so fast as they used to do, and therefore we come to ask your lordship whe ther you can do anything for us ? Ld. I can't exactly force the public to employ you if they won't. I can't force them to take your physic or to pay you for your advice. 2d Medico—But, my lord, we thought the House of Commons, through you, might pass some arbitrary law or other which indirectly might put the trade of phy sicking the people into our hands. Ld. P.—Weil, but we have already done as much in that way as we can, but it seems to little purpose : for instance, did not the House of Commons pass the law which requires a certificate of death from a doctor before a party can be buried? Well, that was strong enough, and I only wonder John Bull stomached it. Ist Medico.—Very true, my lord ; but so it is, what with doctors of one kind and another the public have their eyes open, and we, the medical profession, with some exceptions, are starving. Could not your lord ship devise some other scheme by which we cou!d manage to get the people more under our thumbs ? Ld. P.—lndeed I cannot. I shall do all I can for you in my place in Parliament, but I cannot make such proposals to the House of Commons as you suggest. Besides, sirn- since Palmer's trial, who, you know, was one of you, the public have taken fright at you and your poisons, and think that the safest plan is just to leave all to nature and take nothiug at all. Ist Medico.—Ab, yes I confound that fellow Palmer, it looks as if he had been sent to expose all our doings, and be the means of our downfall. What a lot came out on his trial, which, but for him, might have remained buried for centuries to c )me. Well, my lord, if you will only abolish patent medicines, we will sink all our differences, and for once be agreed. Will you then on such terms pass a law in our favour? Ld. P.—As to that, you ought to remember that I, myself, am one of the public, and that, therefore, I can not support any law which militates against the general good. You want me, in fact, to enslave the public mind on the question of medicine, which of all other profes sions should be left the freest. If the public have be come emancipated from your moat dangerous profession, I cannot wonder at it ; in short, if you cannot support yourselves, you cannot expect the Government to help you further than it has done already. Have you not all the prestige of Oxford and Cambridge in your favour, the universities, the law itself ? If, therefore, with all these things you require more support, it is palpable to me that there is " some thing rotten in the state of Denmark," and that the sooner you go about your business, the better, for if the people once fancy that I support you against their in terest, I shall myself come in for just obloquy. Look again at the ver d ic t w hi c h has been returned ag a inst th e Daily N ews , such a verdic twill and must do the medical profession an immense deal of harm, for what does it amount to, than to tell the public that doctors can do anything (however bad) and that their conduct is not to be commented on in any way without the fears of an action at law for libel—you know very well that your confrb•c Palmer, the Rugely Poisoner, threatened all the inhabitants of the place with actions at law if they hinted at this poisoning. Ido not think that John Bull will stand all this. Therefore, gentlemen of the guinea trade, I bid you farewell until we meet again in the House. [Aside —I hope you have not left any of your poisons in my office.] Reported by A 11TGEIST, London, June 16, 1857. SPORTING NOTES. WINNERS FOR WORCESTER. The Worcester meeting, weich will commence to morrow, will be attended with its usual success. With Mr. Topham as Handicapper, and with a committee composed of "jolly good fellows," nothing but a right merry gathering can take place. The sport will be sufficiently attractive to draw off a large number of ire tropolitan turfitee, and the racing will not be devoid of interest. For the Trial Stakes Ephorus and Miss H rkau•ay are entitled to notice. The Two•Year-Old Stakes may afford an interesting race between Mainstay a nd the in ended of Mr. Saxon's —either Princess Royal or Polly Peacbum. Should old Pantomime be sent all the way from "merry Carlisle," I shad be induced to couple him with Oakba 1 to represent toy interest for the Worcestershire Stakes. For the City Stakes lam in clined to "stand" Learnirgton and Glen Lee, and for the Flying Stakes I shall select Old Tom and Polly Johnson. The truth of the Poet's assertion, that it was wise in man to give a tongue to time, is just proved, to me, for the chime.' of St. Clements tell tim that if I wish to reach Chelmsford by race time I must be off instanter to catch the train.

TIIE THUADEESTORM LIVERPOOL, TuEsDAT. A great storm of rain, accompanied by vivid flashes of forked lightning and loud peals of thunder, broke over this district on Monday evening. After continuing for about two hours, it ceased until this morning, when it returned with redoubled fury, and considerable damage must have been occasioned, although at present but few cases of injury have been reported. Among ;these two are remarkable. Some time in the forenoon a dwelling house, inhabited by Mr. Kelly, in a row called the Five Elms, at Aigburth, belonging to Mr. Edgar, was struck by lightning. The fluid passed down the chimney, and partially blew off the roof of the house, and penetrated to the sitting-roo m , sweep i ng off and extroying a num ber of ornaments on the mantelpiece. Fortunately, no one was in the room at the time, though Mrs. Kelly bad but recently left. About the same time two French horses were standing in a hearse within the palisades of the St. James's Cemetery, which lies considerably below the level of the road, when a vivid flash of lightning caused them to break from their traces, leap a hedge skirting the roadway, and precipitate themselves into the grounds below, sustaining severe injuries. The elec tric clock on the Exchange flags was stopped while the storm was in its fury. Between 10 and 11 o'clock gentleman of Liverpool was being married at Walton Church. While in the act of putting the ring on the lady's finger a flash of lightning appeared to strike the interesting and indispensable gold ornament, which the bridegroom dropped in alarm upon the floor. It is said to have been quickly picked up by the lady, who, with an encouraging whisper, returned it to her future lord. The ceremony was continued and safely completed.
