When Saxons, true to Heaven's command, Had cast out every British stain, gbert the Great—in Union named this land. Alfred—her Guardian Angel—taught this strain ; Rule * Engle-land—England rule the waves, * Engle, or Englishmen, ne'er be, as Britons, slaves. • The Saxon or Old English words (which are still so pre served in all the other branches of the Teutonic language) for Angel-land—Angels ; not Angles ! nor Anglo-Saxons ! ! and most clearly not Britons !!! whom our forefathers justly rooted out of the land—them and their language too ! as fully demon strated in the Angel, or English, Queen, sold by Maddon and Co., No. 8, Leadenhall-street, price one shilling. By bringing forward two strictly analogous precedents—lst, The Union of the Saxon Heptarchl, the Natives whereof have ever since been called Engle, Englishmen ; in Latin,• Angli ; in French, Anglais. 2d. The Union of the Three Kingdoms, •. England, Wales, and Scotland, the natives since generally and vauntingly :Pis-called Britons among themselves, but still An gli and Anglais abroad. I have already shown, and now again hope to do so, that there can be no real Union with Ireland until English, Welsh, Scotch, and Irish, are called by one name. Britons, or Great Britons it cannot be. Little Bri tons, as some pedants will have it, might be deemed an insult only next in degree to the Lyndhurst denunciation, " Aliens," forsooth. The great O'Connell himself, the Apostle of Peace and Goodwill, has endeavoured to get the name of West Bri ton adopted at a large public meeting, thereby showing his zeal for a real union—but there was no response—for ashy ? the name of Briton stands accurst by Holy Mother Chinch - in her best days (see the Venerable Bede). The Scotch as well as Irish would object to " English" as a word having no meaning in their view but that of priority or tyranny. The Romans of the Eastern world, for 200 years alter they had forgotten their mother tongue, upheld their Western Father-name ; but was it ever heard, 0, rare infatuation ! we still holding fast ourfa thers' land, laws, language and religion—forgetting their pa triotic and appropriate Union name, glorify and magnify the name of Britons, a people extirpated by our fathers on ac count of their base treachery, and doubt s exist whether a word of their language be known amongst us. Let us, then, as good men and true, once more unite in brotherhood, as was done so beneficially by our progenitors the Saxons, a thousand years ago, and take up the same honourable distinctive name, and be altogether Engle or ANGELS instead of devils one with another. ( See the Marquis of Westmeath's explanation in the House of Lords, 7th April, 1310.) To sum up all— Away with all falsehoods--Briton, Whig, and Tory, All names of Ignorance, of Malice, and Vain-Glory, Let Angel-name and Fame succeed—Hosanna! Victoria ! The Dictionary or Supplement of the French Academy, just published, the only authority of the kind in which I have seen any explanation of the word Anglo-Saxons, says, " A name " given to the Saxons who established themselves in the " country now called Angle land, because the Angles were " one of their principal tribes ;"—a most illological deduc tion—for if any truth in the premises, they ought to have been called Saxonico-Angles or Saxon-Angles, for everybody knows that the people of this country have not once been called Angles at home ; indeed, it can al most be proved that there never were any Angles in Eegland : it is no more our fault that the Latinists have translated the Saxon " Engle" into Angli and the French Anglaise, than that the Spanish, &c., call us Inglese, not one of them being a fair translation of the word, :Ind the first, " Ang:i," a complete evasion of it. It is folly to suppose that the Saxons let the Latins change their national name to Angli, which they again translated into Engle, and so named themselves and their bravely-gotten land Engle-land : still ;greater folly when we look at the difference between the Latin Anglicanus and English. The first English falsifier of Engle into Angle, I believe to be the Hon. Daises Barrington, about 60 years ago, whence sprung up the new-fanpled visionary word Anglo-Saxon. ames the First, always reputed a good antiquarian, never dreamt of such a word, and still less that his subjects would ever be called by the base and barbarous name of Britons ; the natives of Brittany in France being so called in his da y , but now changed into Bretons. Noteithstanding all this, it has been found that a pseudonym is a bet ter point of union than no name at all, or than such a word as ALIENS. In the Monthly Magazine for October, 1839, I have written enough to show that the word Angel is a good name and much wanted in a religion, as 'veil as political sense, and that the word Protestant should never have been used as a re ligious sectarian name, particularly by the English ; indeed, all names that are anti- Scriptural, or not in comformity with the Scriptures, ought now to be discarded. St. Paul com plains 11 Cor. c. i.v. 10. eve.) of divisions by every one calling themselves Paulians, Apollosians, Cephasians, Christians! Also (chap. iii. ver. -I) " While one saith, I am Paulian, &c , are ye not carnal?" True, it is written, they were first called Christians at Antioch ; but is it not to be gathered that it was by their adversaries and by way of contempt ? (These self-same remarks apply to to the word Protestants. St. James says, c. 2, v. 7, "Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by which ye are called." It is plain that in early times they never called themselves Chris tians, for St. Paul, when King Agrippa exclaimed, " Thnu almost persuadest me to he a Christian," Acts 26, v. 28, with much solemnity avoids repeating the name, either because he felt that it partook of blasphemy, or that Agrippa had used it by way of contempt. : indeed 1 do not. know that the name be came favoured among men until Constantine erected the SYM BOL," In hoc Sl6lO vincere." The word too is now more generally understood to mean civilization. What man is he, who shall rightly say lam a Christian ? Say rather with humility, - " The Lord knoweth them that are his; and let every one that nameth the name of Christ tlai...rt from iniquity."-2 Tim., c. v. 19. See also how carefully the use of the word Christian is avoided in Acts, viii. v. 1 and 3 ; ix, v. 1 and 2 and 21: xiii.. v. 43; xix., v. 23; xxii.,v. 4; xxvi., v. 9,11; xxviii.,v. 14, 22,&c. &c. &c. Whereas. now•a-dawn—see Penny Cyclopmdia (St. Paul)—the word is introduced on every occasion. Can the re verential Jew join a counnuoity which presumes to call itself by any name of God, to whom all glory and worship are due? Wanted some respectable men to deliver handbills of this import—not to the poor—all their attention must be directed to get them bread; but, as the time is at hand, to the rich and great, to such as apparently can read, mark, learn—Revelations cxix., v. 17—noting the rema!kable discrepancy between the heading of c.xx., v. 17, " The fowls called to thegreat slaugh , ter," and v. 17 in the text, " Come and gather yourselves together, unto the supper of the great God." ANGELUS in sale (in veritate, publice) stans, exela mans, &c. N.B.—Although we must needs, perhaps, tolerate all the false and incongruous names which have crept into use amongst • ourselves, as well as those by which foreigners in general call us (the Teutonic or German race the only exception), let them not entirely usurp the place of our heaven-appointed name, K ing and people in a more solemn a n d formal m ordained any other national name in the Old World, ; our lone-preyed , m, r t 1 b i .I'-deserved good name, now that it is fairly brought to light.

Yesterday the town of Woolwich was honoured by a visit of his Ro‘al Highness Prince Albert, accompanied 1 1 the Prince Ernest of -Saxe Coburg and Gotha. His Royal Highness arrived at ten o'clock in the morning at the Royal Arsenal, and was attended by the Prince Ernest and Sir Hu,sey Vivian, the Master-General of the Oe.i nance. A second carriage, containing some members of his suite, followed, end the usual number of outriders accompanied the Royal carriages. Upon the arrival of the distinguished party at the gates of the Royal Arsenal the Union lick was lowered, and the Royal standard hoisted amidst a general salute. Lord Bloom field, the commandant of the garrison, Brigade-Major Cubbage, Assistant Adjutant-General Colonel Joees, Colonel Harding, Colonel Cleveland, and the ether staff officers of tho garrison, received the Royal party, which proceeded to inspect the foundry and boring-house, the laboratory, the machinerl of the carriage department, the storehouses, and other parts of the building, which his Royal Highness was pleased to speak in high terms of approbation. His Royal Highness then passed out of the e'stern gate of the arsenal on to the practice ground on the marshes, where there were three field batteries, and two troops of the Horse Artillery, with one rocket troop, under the direction of Major Swecting. A range party, consisting of eighteen gunners, with a captai❑ and two non-commissioned officers, fired the batteries in the usual excellent style for which this corps lass so distin guished itself. His Royal Highness then proceeded to the barracks of the Royal Artillery, where the battalions were already pa rading in front, and received the Royal party with a general salute, and broke into open column, the magnificent band playing the most popular and scientific airs. It being now half-past one o'clock, his Royal High nest, with Prince Ernest, the Master-General of the o:elnancea Lord Bloomfield, the .11sigade,41494 had. Colonel Wylde, who, it should be stated, attended as Equerry to Prince Albert throughout the day, adjourned to the military mess-room and partook of a d(jeune. During the iirne the band continued play ing on the rrade, and shortly before three o'clock, his Royal Highntes, in the undress of a Field Mar shal, with Prince Ernest, attired as a cavalry officer, pro ceaded with the garrison staff to the park of Artillery, where howitzer and mortar practice was performed, a flag stick being placed at a distance of 830 yards, and a re duced charge being used with admirable precision. This was necessary. in order to avoid accidents in the Dover road. The howitzer batteries Were manned a: half-past three o'clock under Lieut.-Colonel Darby, of the 6th battalion. Prince Albert and the other distinguished visitors afterwards inspected the repository, and reviewed the Horse Artillery on Woolwich-common, under the command of Colonel Cleveland. His Royal Highness and Prince Ernest, at four o'clock, visited the Royal Academy of Cadets, and about five o'clock departed in his carriage for town under a general salute. • 'I he Artillery did not receive or d ers o f , t h e i nte nded visit until a late hour on Sunday, and in consequence of the review being but little known there was only a small, although a very fashionhble, attendance to witness the im posing spectacle. His Royal Highness and the Prince Ernest both looked extremely well, and at intervals received the warm congra tulations of those assembled, which they acknowledged in an amiable and flattering manner. The practice in the marshes was carried on by the fie'd batteries with round shot and shrapnel shells. There were also small rockets at the usual range, and in addition some 121 b. rockets. The officers on duty in the Artillery park were Captains Eyre, Anderson, and Rowland ; Lieutenants Bingham, M'Cuy, Caller, and Crawford. Lieutenant Cheetham superintended the range, and at the Military Repository Captains Schah, Burroughs, end Sbaw, with Lieutenants Montresor, Broughton , and Bclfour, took an active part. Lieutenant -Colonel King, Adjutant of the Ist battalion, directed the exercise at the Repository; Captain Sawyer kept the barrack-field, and Adjutants Femor and Griffiths the common. COLLEGE for CIVIL ENGINEERS, GORDON-HOUSE, KENTISH TOWN. Yesterday this college was publicly opened, and was honoured on the occasion by a numerous attendance of Nobility and Gentry, amongst whom were the Dukes of Buccleuch, Richmond, and St. Alban's ; the Earl of Devon. Sir John Dean Paul, Bart., the Lord Mcyor and Sheriffs, Colonel Landiman, Lieutenant Colonel Angelo, Sir George Stephen, Sir Lucius Curtis, the Rev. Drs. Hawtry, Driscoll, and Ifill, Dr. Andrews, end most of the neighbouring clergy. The company were received at the gate by Major Hut chinson, the Resident-Director, and Mr. J. E. B. Curtis, the Secretary, and conducted over the dormitories and other buildings of the college, accompanied by the several Professors, and afterwards attended divine service at Kentish-town chapel, where a sermon was preached by the Rev. J. B. Page, the Chaplain, and Professor of History to the college. On their return from the chapel the company assembled in the great lecture-room of the College, surrounded by the theatres belonging to the schools for chemistry, drawing, and mathematics, aed which were built under the superin tendence of Mr. Winsland, of Duke -street, in the short space of fourteen days only. . The Duke of Beeenneex, having taken the chair, said that in this country it was wonderful, distinguished as it was for science, that no college fur teaching the art of civil engineering had been before established. Oiler countries had their schools; and though in some of our public schools there were to be found classes for tuition in this branch of science, and a great deal of teaching was privately commu nicated, there was nothing on the enlarged scale which the projectors of this college hoped they would be enabled to carry out.—(Loud cheers.) To Mr. H-nry Bawtry the thanks of the country were especially due, for his exertions in establishing and bringing about this project.—( Hear, hear.) The organization of the college had been a work of long and anxious deliberation and care with the coun cil, and he bad the happiness to say that it was placed under the immediate superintendence of a gentleman not less qualified by his scientific abilities than for those domestic virtues without which the greatest at tainments would be useless.—( Loud and continued cheer ing.) The professors bad been selected with the greatest care, and in no public institution could brighter names be found. It was grLtfying to see the support conferred upon the college, and it was especially pleasing that its opening should be honoured by the pre sence of the Chief Magistrate and Sheriffs of London.— ( Loud cheers.) There was no institution where any pub lic benefit could arise, or the interests of the metropolis were to be advanced, where the heads of the Corporation were not to be seen. The pupils would consist of gentle men's sons, and would always be treated with kindness and respect, and he (the Noble Duke) indulged a hope that no person connected with that college now or hereafter would ever have reason to regret it s institution. As the President of the College he bad only to &clana that it was now opened. The Duke of RICHMOND said it became his duty as the Chairman of the Council to call the attention of the meet ing, and more particularly of the protestors and students. to the rules and regulations agreed upon by the Council for the management of the college. They did not seek to rival any other establishment; they only wished to be permitted to share with others in doing good. In the age they lived in they could not do better than improve the education of all classes, and the education that would be given in that institution would be based, and most properly based, on religion, for without religion educe tion was of no use.—(Great cheering.) He (the Noble Duke) would say a few words to the professors and pupils. The professors were selected for their high cha racters. and it was only necessary for him to remind them that kindness and decision wero the best means of manag ing mankind.—( Loud cheers.) To the students he would say, exert yourselves—avail yourselves of the opportunity of, learning, and of being enabled to enter into the noble profession of civil engineering. If they felt grateful to those who had enabled them to partake of these advan tages, the best way to show their gratitude would be to remember the precepts and principles instilled into their minds, and to exhibit their effects in their after conduct through life.—(Loud cheers.) It was not enough f..r them to be men of science—they must be men of science and men of honour. They must learn to withstand the temptations of this world, which they could only do by looking up to their great Creator, who would make them happy in this world and in the world to come.—( Re newed cheers.) They had his (the Noble Duke's) best hopes for their success, and when he knew the high cha racter of the members of the Council, he had no doubt that the rules and regulations they had framed would tend much to promote their happiness, and he trusted that this time next year they would not only be enabled to pass a respectable examination, but that their conduct in the meanwhile would exhibit no departure from moral recti tude.—( Loud cheers.) The Earl of DEVON , as Deputy. Chai r m an o f the Coun cil, would avail himself of the opportunity of expressing his hopes for the welfare of an establishment calculated to send forth into the world men who would receive the very best education that could possibly be given. He hoped that every place in the empire would avail itself of the benefits of that institution. BERKLEY WESTROPP, Esq , and the Right Honourable the Loan MAYOR, then shortly moved and seconded a vote of thanks to the Noble President and Vice-Presidents, and to the council of administration. Both the Noble Dukes, in returning thanks, expressed their conviction that, placed in the distinguished situation to which it had pleased God to call them, they best dis. c c n charged ye sf t oi h nr e i tc r hoem d i rtitntcigoe country, no t tr o rw i r h d e i buttr of ohdrioaaklalei ail the t and hmankind.g good od theirt they yhficeslolw sen timent timent was hailed with the loudest cheers from all parts of the room. The business of the meeting having been concluded, the partake of a splendid collation, fur nthe refectory of the college by M r. ivisitorssWithers,4ed andlaid out w were B ake r invited- s it t no r e t Yesterday the fifteenth anniversary dinner of the United Society of Master Chimney-S►veepers, formed for the benefit of their apprentices, took place at Mr. Hinton's, the Highbory Barn Tavern. The boys, 205 in number, sat down to a dinner of good old English fare. After dinner they were regaled each with a glass of wine, and having been presented with some pocket-money, were dismissed to the extensive grounds attached to the premises, there to follow ansusements according to their own inclinations.

The contrast between th e f ore i gn po li cy o f t h e Whi gs and their Tory predecessors is sufficiently galling to ac count for those ebullitions of vulgar and scurrilous abuse which burst from the organs of the baffled faction, when ever intelligence is received of a fresh instance in which the national honour has been promptly vindicated, and the national interests firmly, temperately, and successfully up held. This alone cen account for such an incoherent rhapsody of low invective, pointless abuse, ridiculous mis staments, and open, unabashed exultation at the pros pect of imaginary disasters, as appeared on Saturday in the columns of the Times. Bra curious coincidence, at the very time when the Tory journalist was exhausting his choicest vo cabulary of Billingsgate !thing against Lord po Ftqtqn, for having taken prompt and efficacious steps to bring the 'ea: pricious despot of Naples to his senses, the Tory leader in the House of Peers was repeating his memorable declara tion of March last, " that the proper way of negotiating was to send a squadron of men of war from Malta to Sicily." As in the case of China, so long as there was a possibility of making the nation believe that Ministers were slumbering at their posts, the voice of the Tory organs was all for war. Non, when it has become apparent that the forbearance, which they imputed to pusillanimity, is more satin to the honourable moderation which, conscious of the possession both of might and right, shuns rather than seeks a quarrel with an inferior power, the tone of the assailants of Government is changed, and a long train of imaginary disgraces and calamities is conjured up. (From the Morning Herald.) The Irish Municipal Corporation Bill was, last night, read a second time in the House of Lords. Lord Mel bourne introduced it to their Lordships' notice in a feeble speech—a speech in which his Lordship disowned, as far as he safely might, all community of sentiment with Daniel O'Connell. " I have never," observed the Premier, " held the opinion that the evils of Ireland arise from her connec tion with England. I have never held the opinion that Ire. land would gain anything by becoming an independent country; and even if I had ever held such opinions, I eheuld deem it exceedingly unwise to employ the lan guage which is so frequently held on those questions." Yes : Lord Melbourne may not hold the opinions to which he adverts ; and Lord Melbourne may not employ the lan guage of the Irish Repeal party 1 But Lord Melbourne is content to reap all the advantage which may accrue, in a party sense, from the most violent language—from The wildest opinions —in regard to a repeal of the Union, and to "Justice to Ireland." Lord Melbourne is not himself a Repealer—but he is banded with Rcpealers. (From the Morning Post.) Although the Ministerialists are never weary of abusing the Tories, yet we find th em not only rea dy b ut most eager ' to vouch Tory counsel in defence of anything et hich they suppose Tories to have at any time approved. If they can but say that some leading Tory Lord or Commoner advised or recommended a similar step to that which Government has taken, they seem to hold that as an all-sufficient defence. Nothing for them like Tory help. The smallest contributions arc most thankfully re ceived. It happens that our Foreign Minister has con trived to get several national quarrels, or something very like quarrels, upon his hands all at cnce. Ile begins to make warlike demonstrations in sundry quartos, and the moment a Tory doubt is started of the good sense, or expediency, or good management in these things, up jumps a Ministerialist to say that the Tories were always advising demonstrations of national strength, and had been in the habit of finding fault with the Whigs for holding back too long. Now this is not untrue, although Minis terialists say it ; but this establishes no inconsistency against the Tories. Our complaint is, that Ministers have brought matters to a state which renders war almost in evitable, by holding back our strength. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. MONDAY EVENING. POST.—A very extensive business was done in Shbrzs again to-day, to the _almost total neglect of the public funds in both markets. Money continues exceedingly abundant, however, and it is hardly possible, therefore, but that the latter should hare vxperienced some improve ment in value. London and Rrighton Railway Shares were last quoted 6 to 51 dis. ; London and Blackwall to 2 prem. ; London and Southampton 133 to 14 prem. ; Great West ern 24 to 25 prem. ; London and Croydon 4 to 34- dis. ; Manchester and Leeds 12 to 13 prem. ; North Midland 8 to 83- prem. ; Eastern counties, 9 to 83- dis. ; and South Eastern and Dover 54 to 5i per share. United Mexican Mine were done at 3to 3s per share. The speculators in this market seem to have lost their reason. Tnay go into purchases without the smallest regard to the probable con sequences, for if the results of similar movements on for mer occasions arc at all to be depended upon as an ex ample, there can be no doubt that many of them must suffer severely for their folly. A few days ago nothing in the shape of a railway shore was so much as looked at, and now all at once there is a scramble to see who shall get the most. A reaction, and that a very ruinous one, at no distant period is inevitable. The Corn trade was in the ascendant to-day. The scarcity of grain in Franca has contributed to the greater firmness of the market, and we regret it, as the exporta tier, of gold will, almost to a certainty, be carried on upon an increased scale. In the Tea trade also there was more animation, °wino° certain vague rumours which have been in circulation respecting the English merchant ships, Thomas Courts and Royal Saxon. The same reports were afloat on Saturday, and if we gave little credence to them then, we give still less now, as, if there had been any truth in them, we should most likely have known by this time by what conveyance the news was re ceived. The two vessels are said to have been seized by the Chinese authorities and blown up. The Commanders of the Thomas Coutts and the Royal Saxon had fully complied with the conditions pub. lished by Commissioner Lin for the regulation of foreign shipping entering the port of Canton, and that the Chinese should have been guilty of the act of treachery imputed to them is quite incredible. The report gccs on to say, that, having heard of the damage done to the fleet of war junks by the Hyacinth and Volage, the Emperor had given orders to take vengeance on the crews of the two vessels above referred to. If the East India Company had received any information from China on Saturday, as has been affirmed, it is certain, we think, that the particu lars would have transpired before now. The statement has, we suspect, been put forth for no other purpose than that of producing an affect on the tea market ; and, if so, the expedient seems to have succeeded to a certain extent. The rise to-day was, we believe, iid. per pound. SUN.—Up to this hour not the slightest clue has been discovered to the painful, and, if unfounded, disgraceful, rumour in circulation early in the day respecting the firing of the Thomas Coutts and Royal Saxon rear chant vessel, by the Chinese, and the murder of several of the crew. What pleasure is to be derived by the circulation of such statements as these we are at a loss to discover, nor can we imagine who are the parties who concoct them. Certain it is that, like a hall, when once set in motion, they roll about the City in the most respectable quarters. The overland mail is expected with much anxiety, and will most likely reach us this week. It will, how ever, be too early to ascertain what effect the declara tion of war may have bad on the Celestial authorities. Tea was rather higher on 'Change this afternoon. The accepted incdiatinn of France in the Sulphur affair, not only by England, but alio by Naples, has previous value ; the quot a ti on f or Consolsthe inconsequence o o n f s t e h g e u e nspeculatorsceaga again in p ae e n:t s ah e Pne n i ; efunds, transfer fully uaien t a de t dt h e the close of business this afternoon having risen to 91, and for the Account to 91h- 1 4 , Exchequer Bills were worth 255. to 275. premium, and East India Bonds 4s. to 6s. premium ; Bank Stock was steady at 175, and the New Three and-a-Half per Cents at 99i to The new; of the grand defeat of the Carlists had no effect upon Spanish Stock, which was rather heavy at 29 to it ; Mexican Bonds were steady at 29i, and Dutch Two and Two-and-P. -Half per Cents, impoved to 53i. The Railiray Shares were all in great demand, and at very high prices. We foretel an awful crash in these investmenls before long, owing to tha headlong specu lation in 1)1 ogress. --- The Archbishop of Canterbury's public dinners at Lambeth Palace will commence on Saturday next, the 9th of May instant. Those who intend to honour the Archbishop with their campany on Satu r d a y are requeste d t o leave their cards at the Palace before twelve o'clock on the Friday preced ing.

His Lordship has been appointed Deputy-Lieutenant'of the county of Kildare. Earl Fozwilliam has not yet taken his departure for the Continent, but goes at the latest next week. The Ladies Charlotte and Dorothy Fitzwilliam and Mr. and Lady Mary Thompson reached Calais on Friday last. The Earl of Scarborough and the Ladies Lum ley, who arrived in town last week from Sandbeck, have since left for a tour on the Continent. STEPHENS'S BRITISH BEETLES.

The surgeon who was sent for found the body then warm, but life had fled. H a d the woman been plac e d on t h e h an k h er life might have be en saved. The reason assigned by the man for not taking the body out of the water was, that he thought it unlawful to remove a dead body without a constable being present.— Irorcester Chronicle. EXHIBITION OF THE ROYAL ACADEMY. The annual Exhibition of the Royal Academy com menced yesterday for the season at the rooms . of the National G a ll er y, i n Trafalgar-square. The pictures are very numerous, and many of them are of superior merit : and it struck us, on a hasty glance, that there were not quite so many portraits as usual. The rooms were crowded at an early hour, and about two o , eloek . the thron g b ecame qu i te su ff ocat i ng , so t h a t it was true possible to do more than just take a cursory view of the paintings. We shall content ourselves therefore at present with briefly noting down our impressions of such of the pictures as we were 'fortunate enough to get a. peep at, a n d return f rom t i me to t i me to t h e subject, as leisure an d th e state of our columns will permit. No. 162," Equestri a n Portrait of Queen Victoria, attended by Viscount Melbourne, the Marquis of Conyncham a w &c., is by Grant, and is chiefly deserving of notice for the excellent likeness of Lord Melbourne. which is one of the most faithful we have seen. That of the Marquis of Conyngbam, who is hastening forward on horseback to the Queen, with his hat raised above his head, is not so striking —at least, not on a first glance. Her Mejesty's figu. e is grace. ful, and full of easy dignity ; and it is .plain to see that the courtly artist has not forgotten that it was a Queen who was the subject of hie pencil. No. 174, " Banquet Scene in Macbeth," by Maclise, represents that striking scene in the play, where the conscience" of the usurper takes the alarm at the sudden appear ance of the Ghost of Banquo. The apparition is re presented by a dark, scarcely definable shadow, which. in the murderer's eyes only, - aseames the form of the murdered. The figure of Lady Macbeth, who has just risen from her chair of state, and is endeavouring to . ex• plain to her guests the cause of her husband's agitati on, is meant to be impressive, but it wants height aid dig nity. The outstretched arm, too, is thick . and sins wy— far too much so for a woman. Macbeth is better pour trayed, especially as regards attitude ; but the expres sion of his countenanc: is far too much exasg: rate d. Some of the details of the picture are w, rated up with skill and spirit—indeed M ac li se i s never d e C c ' en t i n spirit, whatever other faults he may possess—but, as tt whole, we cannot rank it among the artist's most sue► cessful productions. No. 203, " Slavers, typhoon throwin ,overtmerd the Dead and Dying, a canting en s t is one of tamer's most on iecountable treas . of fancy. Nothing is to be made out in this non-lescript work of art, except a parcel of fishes swimming torvaeUs some dead bodies. Of the colouring we can sly nothing, for assuredly we have never yet seen anything like it in na ture. No. 266, "Study of a Group of Menntaineers returning from the Vesta of Monte Vergine," deserves praise for the grace and harmony of the grouping. No. 273, " The Bye-road," reminds us of one of those floe. sylvan English landscares which poor old Constable seas so fond of painting, whose spotty manner Creswicle h as imitated too closely. The perspective in this picture is handiei with considerable dexteiity. No. 292, " The Droinos, or Outer Court of the Great Temple at Edfou, in Upper &DV." is finely represented by .Rolarts. The sand and dust of the desert, in pertieulea, w hi c h t h:,, k b, covers the entire Court, are drawn ssith singular adher enCe to reality. No. 311 is one of Landseet's spirited arimel. paintings. It is entitled " Lasing down the Lan'," and pour trays a group of dogs busied in solemn and earnest conclave. No. 327, " The Letter, or the last i'aini'y News," is full of that animated expression which Reinagle knows so well how to impart to his male and female faces. No. 328, " Punch," by Webster, exhibits some genuine comic humour, and some felicitous spec:aiens of grouping. But the scene of the pictare should have been in town, not in the country, for Punch is no traveller. No. 343, " Avignon,' exhibits a striking view of a broken bridge thrown over the Rhone, close by this fatuous city ; the lights and shadows on the broad stream are admirably de picted. The former, more psrticularly, are very bril liant in (fleet. s No. 360, " N ort h w i c k Park," by Lee, is not in thi s clever landse,ape painter's happiest man ner. It is stiff and formal in aspect. No. 374, " Park Scenery," by the same artist, is better. The gnarled old oak in the foreground is a highly natural bit of colouring. No. 894, " Bathsheba," is remarkable for the beauty of the flesh tints. No. 438, " Brigands visited by their friends," is a rocky, mountain inudscape, amid whose recesses a band of brig ands are assem bl e d. There is mu c h v i gour of expression in this picture, and the . colouring thr oug h out i s j ust and appropriate. The printer is No. 441, " The Slave Trade," is an Impressiv2 subject, cleverly handled by a French artist named I3iard. It i s one o f t h e a bl est pictures in the Exhibition. The unconcerned manner of one of the slave-dealers who, with the stump of a pipe in his mouth, is branding th e fl es h o f a negro, is pourtrayed with infiaite skill ; and equally successful is the colour leg of the het, sultry, atmosphere, which realizes all that we have heard and read of African temperature. No. 461, " Neapolitan Fishing Girls surprised Bathing by Moonlight," is by Turner. It is not colouring—. bas the burlesque of colouring, and resembles nothing so much as a large slovenly smear, dashed at random across the canvass. No. 226," Going to Church," is a picture, full of promise, from the pencil of Colman. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING. SIoNDAr.

Aid TI-CORN-LA W MO YEMEN T: (FROM A. CORRESPONDENT.) Thcre is to be grand " gathering" at Glasgow on Wednesday, at which Deputies will be present from all parts of Scotland, to effect a thorough organization for the total repeal of the Corn-law. This is the result of the contempt with which the people's petitions were treated by the House of Commons on Mr. Villiers's motion. The agitation, so far from being repressed by that con tempt, has received an additional impulse, and new life and energy will inspire the various associations in their warfare against the unholy monopoly. The meeting et Glasgow will be attended by deputies from Edinburgh. Dundee, Stirling, Aberdeen, and all the principal tomes in Scotland. Manchester sends Mr. Prentice and Mr. Paulton as its representatives, and other deputies will be present from the manufacturing towns of the North of England. There will be an Anti-Corn-law meeting at Blairgowrie on Saturday, and another on Monday. A laughable incident took place on Satuiday morning at the Hanover-square Rooms. There was a rehear sal of the choruses, &c., to be performed at the Ancient Con cert to-morrow, and among the full pieces was Webbe's glee, " Ihe Mighty Conqueror," the concluding words of which are " There's no deceit in wine." While this very glee was re. hezrsing, a number of persons entered the room to attend a meeting of the British and Foreign Temperance Society ! THE OPERA Row.—Lord Forester, who was reported to have taken part in the row at the Opera, states that he was 140 miles distant from London when it occurred. Loss OF Two LTVES.-011 Saturday, the Lark coach, which runs between Leicester and Nottingham, was overturned on its way to the latter pl ace, about a m il e f rom Loughbo roug h, an d close to Cotes' Tol l-gate. A person named Pearson, and a servant of the Duke of Portland, died during the night from the injuries they sustained. The driver of the Laricis much, but not d angerously, hurt. THE BATHING SEASON IN HYDE PA Rie.-+ On Friday last, May 1, as is usual, the bathing season as the Serpentine River, Hyde Park ; was commenced, and daily. morning and evening, thousands of persons have availed them selves of the privilege. On Sunday morning some scoundrels raised a cry of " Boat," which brought two of the boatmen of the Royal Humane Society, with their boats, ropes, &c., to the spot, when they were only laughed at; while at the same mo ment, a young man, who had been seized with cramp, was in actual danger at the east end. The boatmen, how ever,reached him in Cute to save him. The Superintendent of the Society succeeded in handing over one of the scoundrels in the hoax to th custody of the police. composer il° SS i si N I s t atA AT Naples, NA w P .h L e E re S. h — e r T ec h en is tly_r o ec n e c i e t yed b b u fro t ri a lh _ a ? n ne compliment, e n than com mon whlc p in ub it l s ic ta c .i o l The anecdote is worth relating.

He preceded his panegy ric on each with a description of his tomb, which appeared, from the warmth and eloquence of the improvisation, to rise before the eyes of the poet as he spoke. After passing several in review, " And here," continued the orator, here stands the tomb of one, dear to Apollo, the lamented Rossini." " How," exclaimed one of the assembly, " Ressini he is not dead, he is even present."—" No," said the poet, his body, his earthly frame is indeed amongst us; but his immortal part, his genius, lies dormant in the tomb." The Re claniations which foi:owed this sally of the improvisatore are de scribed as loud enough to have awakened the seven sleepers, whether they arc sufficient to rouse the slumbering spirit of the Gran Alactro from its torpor yet remains to be seen.--Paps Print. Ma. AYTOUN AT STIRLING.—Mr. Aytoun atidre:sed, on Frhiay last, the inhabitants of Stirling in the Court House. The object of his address was to take a review of the proceedings of the present session of Parliament, and to inform the constituency how he should have voted on each . division had he been their representative, in contrast with the votes given by the sitting Member. His speech occupied two hems in the delivery.
