Its perusal is 'Articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to wilich every human being is %tattled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences 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.

" The same may be said of the recorded judg ments of an eminent individual. Sir C. Barry was examined before the committee of 1848. He was thus questioned by the chairman, Lord Morpeth:— " Since you were last examined by the commit tee have you directed your attention to the site of the present National Gallery with a view of ascer taining the capabilities of that building for the re ception of additional works of art?' His answer was :—" Yes, I. have, and I am now prepared to report to the committee on the subject. I am of opinion th Lt if the site of St. Martin's Workhouse were purchased, an alteration were made in the form of the barrack-yard, and a portion of Castle street stopped ; if the Royal Academy were located els .wliert>, the portico and °tin r projections be yond the line of the present front taken down, and consider".ble additions were male to the present building, a National Gallery could be obtained on the pre ent site that would be an ornament to the metropolis, and afford accommodation equal to the requirements of the country for the national pic tures for ages to come. I should add, the proposed additions to the present building would have the effect of entirely concealing the front of it. I have gone very minutely into the subject, and have pre pared certan plans and diagrams to illustrate my proposition, and 1 shall have great pleasure in sub mitting and explaining them if it be the wish of the committee.' (Answer 182). " The whole tenor of Sir C. Barry's evidence in 1848 is i& favour of the site of the present National Gallery ; but when examined by us on the 2d of last April, and his former evidence being referred to, he said, "I would not hold to that answer now, because I'have had opportunities since of '-ese . tra;nix;g - verT. carefully the capabilities of the British Museum', I have Considered also the ad= vantages of the greater centrality of its position, and other matters which I was not aware of and did not consider when I gave that evidence. My opinion is now modified, and I have no hesitation in saying that the site for the National Gallery, in my opinion, is the British Museum, in preference to that of Trafalgar-square.* " We have referred to these striking differences of opinion of the same eminent persons at different times, to show the small amount of assistance we have received from consulting authorities on the matter in question, and also to suggest an excu , e for any differences of opinion which the minutes of our proceedings will prove to have existed among ourselves. And it may not be improper to add that our difficulties have not been diminished by the fact that our commission originates in a difference between a decision of a committee of the late House of Commons and a vote of that house itself, the vote in each instance having been carried by a very small majority. " At the outset of our deliberations it appeared :that many sites might be considered worthy of espe cial notice, but on closer examination we found our choice to be limited to a very few. We felt that any encroachment on the royal parks would meet with general opposition, and we must add that it would, in our opinion, be most undesirable. This convic tion excluded us also from recommending the 'bite of either of the Royal Palaces, supposing that such a proposal could with propriety be made, for no suitable structure could be raised on such a site without to a certain degree encroaching on the parks, either by the building itself or by the requi si'e approaches to it. A suggestion was made in favour of the inner circle of the Regent's-park by a witness who has given much attention to the sub ject,l- but our resolution not to advise the erection of large buildings on any of the open spaces now u ed for public resort, as well as objections to the nature of the soil, induced us to exclude that site from our final consideration. " We could not adopt the proposal to remove the national pictures to the upper floor of the British Museum, although the plan came_ recommended to us by a high authority. " After these and other deductions, for which we do not think it necessary to five detailed reasons in tbis report, we found our choice, in fact, limited to two sites—the site of the present National Gallery, sufficiently enlarged, and the Kensington-gore estate. " The advantages and disadvantages of the Ken sington-gore estate were stated in full and minute detail before the select committee of 1853, and we examined some of the principal witnesses who then gave evidence on that subject. " So far as space for a building of great magni tude with capacity for future enlargement is con cerned, tbis site is, in our opinion, undoubtedly, to be preferred, and we cannot but conclude that the air must be on the whole less impure there than at Charing-cross. Whether it will continue to be so when the neighbouring land to the south-west and west shall be covered with buildings and be come part of the metropolis may by some be doubted. " We ought not altogether to overlook the fact, although it need not govern our decision, that the choice of this site would occasion a saving to the amount of whatever ow lay might be requisite for the purchase of land elsewhere. "Orythe ether hand, the site of the present Na tional Gallery is incontestably more accessible— more in the way of all classes, and, from long usage, more familiar to them, than any position in the outskirts of the metropolis. The surpassing merits of this sit© in this respect are fully set forth in the unanimous report of the select committee of 1848, to which we have previously referred. And in re gard to capacity for enlargement, which seems to be the chief matter of doubt, there can be no impediments now which were not known to the eminent practical statesmen who composed the committee and prepared the report of 1848. "In regard to atmospheric impurities, it is, as has been previously admitted, inferior to the site of Kensington-gore ; but additional care, the more general protection of the pictures by glass, which, is strongly recommended by some of our more com petent witnesses, architectural improvements in a new building, and recent legislation, which has done much to purify the metropolitan atmosphere and may do mo:e, would probably much improve its present condition. Considered architecturally the site of Trafalgar-square stands by common con- Lent without a rival ; and the substitution of a building worthy of the British people for the pre sent edifice would command universal admiration, and do honour to the age. "It only remains for us to state that, having duly considered the premises, we have decided by a majority of three votes to one (one of our col leagues having declined to vote) in favour of the site of the present National Gallery.

The crops are large and heavy. Wheats are remark able for the length and squareness of the ear. Oats in many places are already housed. Some large breadths of barley are cut in good condition. Peas and beans are abundant. The crops are ripening so fast that it is difficult to decide which field to begin first. If as weather holds fine for 10 days the bulk of the harvest will be got over, and by this day week many temples will have been laid on the market tables.

Yesterday some interesting trials were made in the Regent's Canal, Limehouse, with a life-boat, which the European Commissioners have decided to station at the mouth of the Danube. The trial was witnessed by Capt. Washington, R.N., F.R.S., hydrographer of the Admi ralty, and several other experienced gentlemen. The valuable and extraordinary qualities of this class of life boat, which is on Mr. James Peake's design, were again fully developed. The life-boat is 28 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 3 feet deep, and rows six oars. She was turned over by a powerful crane ; she nevertheless righted immediately, and the water shipped by the ope• ration was self-ejected in 20 seconds. Although so small in size the stability of the boat was so great that it required the weight of 11 men to bring her gunwale to the water's edge. The result of the trial was in every respect satisfactory, and reflected credit alike upon the designer of the boat, Mr. Peake, and her eminent builders, Messrs. Forrcoll. The boat has been built under the superintendence of the Royal National Life boat Institution, and of Captain Washington, R N., and Major Stokes, R.E. To prevent, as far as possible, any damage occurring to the boat, she will be sent, with full stores, including life-belts for her crew, in a wooden case, which is of extraordinary size and shape. Five years experience, by the Royal National Lifeboat Insti tution, of this new class of lifeboat, have now fully estab lished their superior qualities, and justifies that society in recommending them wherever lifeboats are wanted. Accordingy it has had a lithographic drawing prepared of a thirty feet lifeboat, on a scale of three-fourths of an inch, with full instruction for building a boat ; a more complete and xscuted drawing was never issued. Tie lifeboat plan, with those of the best description of lifeboat transporting carriages, are to be circulated in our colonies and in foreign countries, and the whole cost of the same is to be liberally defrayed by the Duke of Northumberland, K.G., president of the society. The detail of the lifeboat drawing can be easily comprehended, and the clear instructions annexed to it will enable any boatbuilder to build easily a lifeboat from the drawing.' This is a matter of the utmost importance, and we con sider that the National Lifeboat Institution has thus rendered the greatest service to the cause of humanity throughout the world. The service already performed by this class of lifeboats, and an examination of the draw ing in question, must convince the most sceptical in these matters, that a cafe and powerful lifeboat can now be successfully built to contend with the heaviest gales. Let us express an earnest hope that, as far as our coasts are concerned, the public will place sufficient funds in the hands of the society, so as to enable it to station a lifeboat on every dangerous point of the British Isles.

After the starter had paraded the horses in Indian file past the Grand Stand he conducted them to the post, and endeavoured to draw them up in line—a task of some little difficulty, owing to the fractiousness of Pryor, who caused several breakings away. When the flag was dropped Viscount rushed to the front, but on reaching the Grand Stand, Riseber, who was pulling hard, went up to him, Viscount, Monarque, Gunboat, Fisherman, and Melissa clustering well up, the American horses bringing up the rear. On turning out of the straight, however, Prioress emerged from the ruck and went away with a lead of half-a-dozen lengths, Florin, Gunboat, Monarque, Fisherman, Viscount, and Arsenal running in a body next. On rounding the turn towards the clump Prioress ran wide, and Gunboat was left in possession of t%ie lead, which he carried on into the dip. On rising into sight Riseber and Prioress were seen in close company with Gunboat, followed by Melissa, Florin, Monarque, Fisherman, and Arsenal. They ran thus to the last turn, and on descending the hill by the half-mile post Gunboat slipped up and fell, and Arsenal jumped upon him. Fordham fortunately kept his seat, but Kestrel and Gemma di Vergy both came to the ground. The lamentable occurrence of last year immediately rushed upon the minds of the spec tators, and the most painful interest was excited. All fears were dispelled, as the jockeys were seen to scramble up apparently uninjured. After this accident Riseber was left with a slight lead, with Monarque at his quarters and Prioress next, with Pryor well up, the American horses going particularly strong and well. At the half distance Monarque went up to Riseber, and Prioress gave way to Fisherman. The race from that point was virtually reduced to a match between the first two, Monarque winning by a head, three lengths b3t veen the second and third ; Anton, who met with a disappointment by the accident mentioned above, was beaten about three lengths from Fisherman, Prioress was a bad fifth, Pryor and Melissa were sixth and seventh, the others were pulled up.

The following is the report of the Royal Com mission appointed to determine upon the site of the National Gallery : " We, your Majesty's Commissioners, appointed io determine the site of the new NAtionaldallery, and to report oa the desirableness of combining with it the Fine Art and Archm 'logical Collections of the British Museum,' in obedience to your Ma je-ty's commands have deliberated on the matters submitted to our inquiry ; and having examined many witnesses and consulted the records of the several commissions and cominttees of Parliament which have assembled for the consideration of the , e and similar subjects, we beg leave very humbly to submit to your Majesty the following report, ac companied with the minutes of our proceedings, the evidence of witnesses, and certain explanatory papers connected therewith. "At our first meeting we were informed that one of our colleagues, Mr. Ford, was unable, from illness, to act upon the Commission. His retire ment reduced the number of commissioners to five; and as the Royal Warrant requires that five signa tures should be affixed to our report we have been compelled to frame a statement to which all of us could agree, and which, therefore, could hardly contain much more than a summary of our proceed ings, without the arguments and inferences usually to be found in similar documents. _ " Having chosen a chairman, and appointed, as empowered to do, a secretary, we devoted seven' meetings to the consideration of the effects of the metropolitan atmosphere on pictures and works of art, and we agreed to the following resolution : " ' The evidence hitherto adduced, considered collectively, does not lead to arty decisive conclu 3ion against placing tithe no vi National Gallery with in the metropolis.' " To which words, it was proposed by Profeszor Faraday, seconded by Mr. Richmond, to prefix the following,—' That the presence of the National Gallery within the smoke and atmosphere of Lon don involves, from the consequent extra dirtiness and necesssary cleaning of the picture, an amount of wear and tear which would occur only in a smaller degree in clearer and more airy situations ;" but— " This proposed amendment was, negatiVed by the votes of three of us, namely, Lord Broughton (our chairman), the Dean of St. Paul's, and Mr. Cockerell. " We then considered it expedient to direct our attention to that which forms the second portion of our duties, namely, To report on the desirable ness of combining with 'the new National Gal lery," the Fine Art and Archaeological Collections of the British Museum.' We took this course be cause it seemed manifestly indispensable to deter mine the contents, in order to ascertain the re quired size, and to know the size before fixing on the site of the proposed building. "For this purpose we held two meetings at the British' Museum, aud, assisted by some of the supe rior officers, examined the arrangements, and, in a cursory manner, the contents of that great esta blishment. To guide our judgment in this matter we consulted several eminent artists, and had the advantage of referring to two valuable docuncen . s, to be found in the appendix.* In the course of our inquiry, our colleague, Professor Faraday, applied chemical tests to some of the discoloured marbles, and his letter on the subject will be appended to this report : " The result of this part of our inquiry was that we same unanimously to the following resolution:— " ' That it is not expedient to break up or re move the collections of ancient sculpture and archmolocry in the British Museum.' . . " This resolution had no reference to the abstract question of uniting sculpture and painting—a com bination recommended by the great majority of witnesses—but contained only an answer to the specific question put to us by the Royal warrant. "At a subsequent meeting, indeed, Mr. Rich mond, seconded by Professor Faraday, proposed to add to the above resolution the following words : —' That, though the commissioners think it unde sirable to break up the collections of ancient art and archology in the British Museum, and for the present inexpedient to remove them, they are yet of opinion that the future combination of sculp ture with painting should be provided for in the new National Gallery, a primary use of which should be to preserve examples of the art of past ages in all its branches, in the order best adapted to exhibit their beauty and to illustrate their se qrtenco and character.' This proposition the three other commissioners did not think it necessary to adopt. " From considering this matter we proceeded to collect materials for forming a judgment on the main question submitted to our decision, namely, to determine the site of the new National Gallery ; and on this point we must confess that we were embarrassed rather than aided both by consulting previously recorded opinions and examining many witnesses. For not only did we find, as might be expected, a great diversity of opinion, but, in some instances, we perceived that the same persons, and those of the highest authority, might be cited for opinions either tot dly different from each other or much modified. Two examples of this contradiction may suffice : The Committee of the House of Com mons appointedin Feb., 1848, to consider of th e best mode of providing additional room for works of art given to the public, or purchased by means of Parliamentary grants, " after careful delibera tion unanimously concurred in the opinion, that taking into account— " 'the commanding nature of the site occupied by the presentbuilding, towbich, perhaps, it would be difficult to find a parallel in our own or any other capital ; " Its accessibility and nearness to the chief thoroughfares and centres of business, which are fed by what has been described in a well known phrase as " the fullest tide of human existence ;" " The aids to economy, which, without sacrific ing the beauty of effect which a new front and ad ditional height may confer on the structure, would be furnished by the rare circumstance of only one ornamental front being considered necessary, from the disposition of the ground, and the means which are at hand for making use of the whole of the pre sent interior, due regard being paid to the conve nience of the Royal Academy in providing suitable accommodation elsewhere ; " The space for further enlargement, which, in the process of time, and concurrently with the exi gencies of the collection, might be supplied by oc cupying the uncovered ground now in the occupa tiou of public establishments, in the rear of the public building ; " For all these reasons, without presuming to indicate the precise period for the commencement of such a work, the determination of which may be governed by other considerations, your committee would recommend that, whenever it is undertaken, the enlarged and improved National Gallery should be on the same site as the present; and for the com pletion of such a work, which ought not to be un worthy of the age, the country, and its own desti nation, they would gladly see the most eminent talent of the nation invited to compete in designing an appropriate and enduring monument.' " Such was the unanimous recommendation of some of the most eminent members of that Parlia ment ;t but another Parliamentary committee, composed nearly of the same members, relying, as it appears, mainly on the report of commissioners§ who sat a few weeks before to inquire into the ' State of the Pictures in the National Gallery," on July 25 1850, reported as follows : " Many plans have been suggested by architects of eminence with the view of building on the pre sent site a National Gallery not unworthy the na tion. Upon reviewing the evidence hers collet' ed, your committee cannot, however, recommend that any expenditure should be at present incurred for the purpose of increasing the accommodation of a National Gallery on the present site. " Your committee are not prepared to state that the preservation of the pictures, and convenient access for the purpose of study and improvement of taste, would not be better secured in a gallery fur ther removed from the smoke and dust of London; but being in ignorance of the site that might be se lected, the soil on which it might stand, and the expense which might be incurred, they cannot po sitively recommend its removal elsewhere.' " It will be observed that although the opinion given by the committee of 1848 is positive, and that of the committee of 1850 negative, yet they were * " A letter from C. T.

Ves - Er - ni (From the Ttine5.).......; It may not be forgotten th ct abotiki a fe —ye publicity to a rumour villich cin , siong persons the most likely to be well infornie , opon the subject of the National T; rumour was this :—lt was said :hat when Parliament had risen, and during the rececs, it was the intention to rem sve the pictures now in the National Gallery to Kensington-gore. The Royal Commission appointed on an Address from the House of Commons, as we stated, had made its Report, and we added that this Report was in favour of the site of the present National Gallery. Last week the subject, i n conseq u en ce of what Wall said i n the columns of this journal, was very pro perly mentioned by Mr. Wise in the House of Commons. In answer to a dues , ion from that gen- Colman theChancellorof theExche pier ende scoured at first to treat the rumour and the alleged Report of the Royal Commission in the gond old style of the Treasury Be nc h, o f which we had such ex tensive experience during the Russian War. According to Sir Coinewall Lewis, "The rumour was deserving of little notice." "He could, however, assure the honourable gentleman that the Report of that Commission had not yet been pre sented." This was a little too much even for the practised patience of the Hou e ; accord•nAy our Parliamentary report for the day proceeds,— " (Murmurs of dissent.) Well, he bad not seen a copy of it, he was ignorant of its content s and he could only say that the Government had come to no decision upon the subject." It was never said that the Government had come to any decision upon the subject. If the rumour be true—and we repeat that it came to us accredited by the highest authority of which " rumour" is susceptible—the obvious policy was for the present a wis c inac tion. During the recess, when the representa tives of the people were all absent, it would have been ample time to take the Report of the Royal Commission into consideration, to treat it as a nullity, and to c arry the change into effect. When Parliament again assembled it would have been almost impossible to compel the Government to retrace its steps. To proceed with the discussion of last week :—Mr. Wise, very naturally dissatisfied with the ambiguous answer of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, persisted RI I - ra. inquiry. Sir George Grey then rose in support - of htis friend and colleague ;—" be was the only member of the Government who had seen the Report, and he had not had time to read it." The Report, which we publish elsewhere, consists of three pages and a-half of printed matter, and the perusal of it will possibly task the faculties of an ordinary reader for the space of ten minutes, or those of a Minister for, say, a quarter of an hour. Sir G. Grey added that which at the time we be lieve was true—namely, "He had received a copy of it, and also a letter from Lord Broughton, the Chairman of the Commission, stating that they bad as yet been unable to append to the report the documentary evidence connected with it. When the report in a complete state was iu the hands of the Government it would be laid before Parlia ment ; at present it was impossible for him to say what conclusions would be drawn from it, but he had no doubt that it would receive the fullest con sideration." In this way Slr G. Grey and tl o Chancellor of the Exchequer endeavoured t , fence off Mr. Wise's question. At the conclusion of the conversation, however, in reply to a remark from Mr. Ayrton, who asked for something like an assurance that the Government would not commit the House to any course without an opportunity for discussion, Lord Palmerston decisively said,— " Surely no pledge is necessary. No steps can be taken to build a new National Gallery without the vote of the House." We take note of this assurance. Lord Palmerston's high position and higher character inspire us with full confidence that he will not permit any disingenuous dealing upon a matter which he has thus virtually assured the House shall be reserved for their decision, as it should be of right. And now for the Report of the Commision. The Royal Commissioners were originally in number six. Mr. Ford, the well known Spanish traveller, was one of these, but in consequence of ill-health he declined to act. Five commissioners rem iined, —namely, Lord Broughton, the chairman, Dean Millman, Professor Faraday, Mr. C. R. Coc'ierell, and Mr. G. Richmond. The conclusion at which the Royal Commissioners arrived was this : —" It only remains for us to state, that having duly con sidered the premises, we have decided by a ma jority of three votes to ono (one of our colleagues having declined to vote) in favour of the site of the present National Gallery." The Commissioner who declined to vote at all was, we believe, Professor Faraday. Now, is it possible to treat such a deci sion as a nullity We have no wish on the subject but that the best site, whatever that may be, shall be selected ; and surely this is a point upon which the judgment of the Commission is entitled to respect. We well know how greedily their decision would have been snapped at had it been in favour of Kensington. It is our belief that the vast preponderance of opinion is in favour of the retention of the present site, which is the most 'central one in London, and in every way the best adapted for the purpose. The only point which can be urged against thi s i s , t h at in Traralgar square the pictures are more liable to be aullied by the metropolitan smoke th an in a more sub urban situation. This point is taus noticed by the Royal Commissioners :—" In regard to atmos pheric impurities, it is, as has been previously admitted, inferior to the site at Kensington gore ; but addional care, the more general pro• tection of the pictures by glass—which is strongly recommended by some of our more competent witnesses—architectural improvements iu a now building, and recent legislation—which has done much to purify the metropolitan atmosphere, and may do more—would probably much improve its present condition." Of this there can be little doubt, while, on the other band, the merits of the present site, as far as locality is concerned, are unquestionable. It is not only that the National Gallery in such a situation would 113 most easy of access to all classes, but, when we look to the architectural devolpment of the town, there can be no doubt that our national pictures would be most fitly placed in a suitable building at one end of that magnificent street which leads to West minster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. This ought to be one of the finest perhaps the finest, street in Europe, when the bit'ck of houses between King-street and Parliament-street is re moved, when the public offices are erected, and when proper fountains are substituted in Trafalgar square for the miserable squirts which at present disgrace it. If for the present it should be judged advisable not to incur the expense, let us hold our hands is done, until we can aff or d it. B u t, w h en the thing done, whether it be now or at any future ttme, let it be properly done. L e t us crown that magnificent street which runs from Charing cross to Westminster Abbey with a stately building in which the pictures of the English nation shall be fitly deposited. Let the building be worthy of the wealth and glory of the British name. The Committee of the House of Commons which was appointed in February, 1848, to report upon this subject unanimously decided in favour of the present site. Sir Charles Barry was examined be fore this Committee, and we refer to his evidence merely to show that sufficient accommodation can be secured there. Sir Charles Barry said,—" . lam of opinion that if the site of St. Martin's . Work house were purchased, an alteration were made in the form of the Barrack-yard, and a por ion of Castle-street stopped,—if the Royal Academy were located elsewhere, the portico and other projcc-_ tions beyond the line of the present front taken down, and considerable additions were made to the ob tained on the present site that would be an present building, a National Gallery could Le orna ment to the metropolis, and afford accommodation equal to the requirements of the country for the na tional pictures for ages to come." It is p er f ec tl y t rue that at a later period Sir Charles B arry came to the conclusion that it would be a good plan to wre move the pictures to the B r iti s h M useum. This is oausrteopwonn judgmentthe propriety ; b ut will ieh 1) ewe remarked of fit which can all formti a t we only quote Sir Charles Barry's evi • dence to show that, in his opinion, there is ample room for a National Gallery at and about the present site in Trafalgar-sq uare. I t i s also true that another Com mittee of the House of Commons sat in 1850, which reported against any further expenditure upon the present National Gallery in Trafalgar-square, but which would not positively recommend its removal elsewhere. The preservation of the pictures and convenient access were the only points touched upon in the second report, and we venture to think that the Com m itt ee o f 1848 h a d already disposed of one point, and the Royal Commission of 1857 has now successfully dealt with the other. t the rate of 6 per cen t . per annum, ha T ve he no E ti n fi g , l d ish th , aStcaottttishbe,irannideetunsztroanliatnheC4hathrt e o r f el ü ßa gu l the dividend will be at free of income-tax, while 1,5001. will be written off pr e liminary and other expenses, and 3,640/. will be added to the reserved fund.
