They have already in the air, sky, and landscape which tho place commands the great attractions which appeal to a Londoner. It only remains that they should give him as good a lunch or dinner as is practicable in this unculi naiy country. Let the ref , eshment department be attended to. Let the pale ale be the very best, the wine excellent, the attendance unexception able. If they give the " best good dinner" that can be had, the Ciy,tal Palace is sure to be popu lar.

The shillings will come in when good and cheap fare is to be had. Look at the thousands who go to Greenwich and other places simply to dine. The Crystal Palace, with its superior accommodation, its magnificent gardens, its prospect, and its band, ought to be able to outbid humbler rivals. There is an other point tc attend to. Tie Crystal Palace is by no means ea=y of access from some pats of London. It takes as long to go fr,,m. Belgravia to London-bridge as to drive to Sydenham, and there fore for all that part of London the railway is useless and a car( iage . is necessary.

There must be new railway accommodation before oils-half of London can make the Crystal Palace a place of resort. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. GREAT WESTERN. The directors of this company have just issued their financial statement for the half-year ending the 3Cth of June last. It slows, on comparison with preceding statements, that the heavy expen diture of capital requisite for the completion of tlie;r authorized system of railways is being brought to a close. The opening on the Ist of July of the Devizes branch, 81 miles in length has complete," the whole of tht railways the Com pang are authorised to make. The statement of receipts rad expenditure to the above date shows that tl e total receipts on capital account amounted to 23,537,5641., consist of 8,161.1251. ordinary stock 7,7841. Windsor shares, 59,392/. Bello and Halts extension shares, 1,341,9791. irredeemable 4 per sent stock, 129,0001. redeemable 4 per cent. stock, 1,780,457/. redeem able 41 per cent. stock, 1,006,)621. redeemable 5 per cent. stock, and the debentures, loans, &c., amount to 10,603,710 1 . The total expendiure on capital account amounted to 23,115,4061. Of this sum 10,171,2821. was expenald on the Groat Western, Oxford, Berks and Hants, Windsor, aeld other lines, and on rolling stock 143,0611. on the Uxbridge and Henley Railways, 6,715,0591. on the line from Oxford to Wolverhampton and Dudley, 1,577,0451. on the Wilts, Soneerset, and Wey mouth Railway, 41,3351. on the Didcot deviation line and. engine-11 •use, 134,6411.. f r laying narrow guage rails from Oxford to Basugstuke ; 29,8511.

The capital account of the Shrewsbury railways shows that 3,427,9901. had been raised, including 2,459,129/. in stock and shares, 071,5761. on loan, 247,7201. loans raised -for joint purposes, and 58,565/. on personal accounts, irclusive of 19,276 due to Great Western account. The total expen diture on these lines to the 30th of June last amounted to 3,208,2011., and fer subscription to Stourbridge Valley Railway 190,087/., together 3,393,2881., leaving a balance consisting of assets and personal accounts amounting to 29,7011. The debenture statement showed that 10,222,7601. had been borrowed to the 30th of June on deben- tures, of which 4,333,421/. was borrowed at 5 per cent., 1,139,7451. at 41 per cent., 3,085,8261. at 4i per cent., 90,500/. at 4 per cent., 887,160/. at 4 per cent. 57,200/, at 3 p er cen t., and 628,9071. at 3 per cent. The revenue account of the Great Western lines for the half-year ending the 30th of June, 185 7, shows that 768,9541. had been received, including 7,05 J/. rent from the Bristol and Birmingham Rail way and dividends from Glocester tramroad, 12,1701. for the use of plant by other companies, 2,9141. interest on revenue cash balances during the half-year, 6, 0 731. rent of Great Western Hotel and other property, and 2231. for registration fees. The expenditure on revenue account amounted to 349,2571., 0r47'16 per cent., including 16,6711. for Government duty, 15,6521. rates and t ixes, and. 2,500/. for Parliamentary and legal expenses, leav ing a balance for the half-y ear o f 419,696/. To this sum is added 17,2781. balance from the preceding account, 2,5721. from n e t b a l ance of Kennet and Avon Canal traffic f or th e h a lf-y ea r, 570/. profits under South Wales leas e f or h a lt-year ending 31 st Dec., 1856, and 16,5661. di v id en ds on shares held in the South Devon, South Wales, and Dean Forest companies —making a t o t a l o f 456,684/. From this sum is deducted 1581. f or a dditions to works, 20,1681. for guaranteed a nnu ities to Wilts, Somer set, and Weymouth, and the Kennet and Avon Canal proprietors. 15,8321. rentcharges for the half year, including that of the Glocester and Dean Forest, Hereford, Ross, and Glocester and W y comb e Railways and of the Iladdington estate, 5,4221. ap propriated against loss on the lease of the South Wales Railway prior to the 30th June, 1854 (being a moiety of the dividend received this half-year), 239,1361. interest on loans, and 106,1481. for inte rest on Berks Extension shares and Great Western Preference stock, and 18,6191. to make up deficiency of receipts on Shrewsbury lines, leaving a disposa ble sum of 51,197/. Out of this sum the directors recommend a dividend at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum, which, on 8,237 2761. of ordinary capi tal, will absorb 41,1861., and leave a balance of 10,0111. The revenue on the Shrewsbury lines for the half year, after deducting 5,6571. to cover expenditure in respect of traffic at Birkenhead and passing over the Birkenhead Railway, amounted to 124,3381. ; and the working expenditure to f 4,791/., leavinga balance of 49,546/. to meet 19,1781 . , the interest paid on debentures, loans, & c . , a nd 48,9881 ., the amount of the half-year's guaranteed dividend s ; together, 68,1661., leaving a deficiency of 18,6191., which is provided by the Great Western Company out of their revenue. The decrease in the dividend from 2& per cent. at the corresponding period of 1856 to 1 per cent. in the past half-year is owing entirely to the whole of the interest on the capital (with the exception of 7,6171.) being charged for the first time against the revenue. The increase in the items of interest on loans and preference shares charged against re venue amounts to 60,8001. over that period for the 4 half-year ending June, 1856, and is about equiva he rate stock of per of the company. per cent. per an numlent toona theconsolidated dividend This result was to a great extent anticipated, but it was expected that the profit arising from the in crease of traffic would have the effect of reducing a at t the pressure, and thus increasing the net revenue to meet the heavy charges against it for the inte rest on the capital expended on the new lines as they came into operation. Against this expected advantage, however, there were the' expenses of the additional working and maintenance of 92 miles of new railway opened in sections, and at va rious periods within the apace of 13 months. Not withstanding the efforts made by th e o ffi c i a l s the traffic on these new lines could not be sufficiently developed to pay all the working expenses, and consequently some disappointment has been expe rienced in that respect. Time will be required to develops the traffic on new lines, particularly on those passing through the agricultural districts, but there can be no doubt, according to the statistics of railway traffic, that the returns on these at present unproductive lines will gradually increase year after year. It is right to state that the total receipts during the past half-year show an increase of 64,900/. over those of the corresponding period of 1856, and its probable that a large portion of it be longs to the ordinary increase of traffic on the old lines. On the other hand, the increase in the work ing and other expenses appears to be about 67,000/. More than at the corresponding period of 1856, so that for the present the expenses consequent on the developement of the new lines appear to have more than absorbed the advanta:es of tbe increased traffictrafficdating, the half-year. During the fist half of the year the traffic is considerably less on the Great Western lines than in the second half-year ; this difference might be estimated from former returns at about 90,0001., while the difference in the work ing expenses may be taken at about 20,0C91., so that the result of the second hilf-ye?r's working, even should the traffic on the new lines not increase, will show a considerable improvement in the sum available for dividend at the end of the year. There is another matter, in the present state of the money market, which acts injuriously to the Great West ern ; that is the very large proportion of their bor rowed capital to the ordinary capital, being about 10,500,0001. against 8,250,0001. of ordinary stock. The increase of 1 per cent. in the rate of inter est on the borrowed money would alone reduce the ordi nary dividend by 11 per cent., quite irrespective of the traffic, and, vice versa, a decrease in the rate of interest on the borrowed money would raise the di vidend on the ordinary stock. The conversion of the whole of the borrowed capital into a 4 per cent. debenture stock would be of considerable advan tage to the ordinary shareholders. Considering that very nearly everything is now being charged against revenue, both in respect of capital and traf fic, in this, the least productive half of the year, that all the company's lines are completed and opened for traffic, it may be presumed that the Great Western Railway Company have arrived at their lowest dividend, and as the traffic and re sources of the undertaking become more productive, and increase beyond those of the past half year, the ordinary shareholder may look forward to a pro portionate increase of dividend. The company have n , fw 467 k miles of railway in operation, with access to several seaports against 3674 miles at the corresponding period of 1856. It is probable that the traffic on the 100 miles of additional railway will increase from time to time as on all other new lines, pay their working expenses, and eventually yield a profit on the working. At present thetraf fic on the old lines pays the interest and preference dividend on the capital which has been expended on the new lines. These being as it were already paid for by the . ordinaryshareholders, it is clear that whatever may be the increase of traffic or profit on those new lines it must go directly towards increas. ing the dividends of the ordinary shareholders. THE CRYSTAL PALACE. The Crystal Palace shares with railways and with other glories and delicim of England the inconve nience of not answering as a speculation. A Com mittee of Shareholders has just sat upon the affairs of the Company, and issued its report. The public will inspect with some curiosity the outgoings and incomings of its favourite, anti will be - ready with its condolence at the balance being so much on the wrong side. It will cause a little surprise to hear that the gardens of the Palace at present employ 146 gardeners. The committee not unreasonably thinks this rather too large a staff, and considers that a less number, with more supervision, will do as well. But it is not so much the expenses of the general management, which are not considered ex- cessive, as those of the "frequent novelties and varied attractions," which incur censure. These latter, it appears have been great failures. Th e Handel Festival does not come into this report— why we do not know. But the otherj" attractions" have been all but universally losses. The "Peace Festival" cost the Company 1,9081. and onlybrought in 6281.,- making a loss of 1,2801. to the Company. The Poultry Show cost 9391., the single article of coops being 1961., and only just cleared its ex penses. The Flower shows were a b_tter specula tion, bringing in a balance of 4821. But now comes the formidable head of "Opera Con certs," under which the commmittee considers the Company a loser of 5,0001. It seems that for 12 Opera Concerts the agreement gave Mr. GYE 10,0381., which sum various other items swelled to 11,4611. Then the Committee complains generally of the carelessness of the Directors in the contracts made, "which have been onesided " and much against the interests of the Company." The Company e. g. has lost 2 4 01.-6 d. per dozen —in the course of the year by sodawater, the cal culation beiug that it ought to have gained 3,000/. The difference, of course, has been in favour of the contractor. The conclusion which the report points to is one which any person of common sense could have prophesied,—that the " attractions" are not the attraction at the Crystal Palace. People go there for an " outing," for fresh air, a fine view, and a magnificent garden. A jaded Londoner does not want to see sights,—be is sick of sight-seeing,— he wants to get out of their way. They are part of London ; he is glad to leave them with the smoke and toil of the city behind him, and to go to somewhere where there there is nothing to see but what he can see by simply opening his eyes. There is all the difference between sights ; we see some sights by simply oi,ening our eyes ; we see others by "screwing" them. The connoisseur looks at Dante describes his tailor locking when he threads his.needle—squeezing his eye into the smallest compass. The organ is stimulated by compression, and shoots its sharp arrows out of a corner of itself—a sort of essence of sight. iiut to look through a tenth part of one eye, or even to fix both with a constant tension upon curious objects, is not so healthy or pleasant or cheering a process as to look with two good open uncon strained eyes upon land or sea or sky. The reason why flower shows are such popular sights— for they appear to have succeeded even at the Crystal Palace—is because nine people out of ten hardly look at the flowers. There is just a hasty glance thrown round two or three tents—we look at the banks of azaleas, and pimeleas, geraniums, and calceolarias, and then the eye reposes with dreamy pleasure upon the successive waves of the well dressed and brilliant crowd, or we listen in " a wise vacancy" to the strains of music from the band. The Londoner, then, goes to the Crystal Palace for the fresheuer which the air and the land scape give him. He eats his cold dinner and drinks pale ale with the heartiness of a rustic, and goes back to . his work a ga i n . Thi s i s hi s a tt rac ti on . A concert is no more to his taste than a gallery of pic tures or statutes. He can hear concerts enough in London. He does not go out of London to sit still on a chair, with only mod era t e room f or hi s l egs . It is quite true the Crystal Palace is more liberal of room to the knees than Exeter-hall ;it is possible to sit out even a concert there and not feel yourself in the stocks. This is a great undoubted merit; it is almost a revolution in the musical world. It, at a ny rate, deserves to b e mar k e d as an era i n the history of music. The Handel Festival ga ve the satisfaction it did principally from the fact of the i perfect comfort n which the performances were heard; We throw no reflection on the vocalists or the orchestra, on the cho ruses or the solos, but no music can possibly entrance when th e s p ace b e t ween the ebacbhk of your own chair and th a t o f your neigh bour's eaf:rienade you is less th an th e length which nature from the knee to the hip joint. There is an insurmountable obstacl e to anythinglike ecstacy under such c ircumstances. No man was ever enraptured in the stocks. It is ono of the remarkable consequences of th e new C rysta l architecture that it enables music to be h e ard undue without compression.pain, Space and profit--th ose old and gives room for numbers w ith ou t and mortal enemies—iare at last d ecen tl y recon ciled. But, with all the superior resources which the Crystal Palace possesses for con cer t s , concerts are not the attraction to bring the masses out of London. Everybody knows Sidney Smith's opinion of concerts. They require singular patience, and they impose an unnatural stagnation of your limbs for some thr ee hours, The masses want something much, mere ~ t V 1--"ZZ .. ...-- N .

Times' City A rticle. C /%~%" ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. BIRMINGHAM, SATURDAY EVENING. Mr. M'Geachy a n d M r . Webster have both re- tired from the contest, and Mr. Bright is thus left in undisturbed possession of the field. At a meeting of Mr. M'Geachy's friends held last night, at which Mr. Adderley, 1V1.P., was present, it was openly avowed that the only hope of success was founded upon the division which existed in the Liberal patty. To prevent this result Mr. Webster has withdrawn, union has been accomplished, and the Conservatives defeated. Had all three can.lidates gone to the poll, Mr. M‘Geachy would in all pro bability have been returned. Mr. Bright arrived at Tamworth, where he has taken up his residence for a few days, early this morning, and shortly afterwards, at the request of his committee, issued the following address To THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF BIRMINGHAM. " Gentlemen,—l am informed that a very influential portion of your body is wishful that I should become one of yoor representatives to fill the place of the inde pendent and faithful member you have recently lost, and I have seen in the newspapers that at a very large public meeting my name has been received with great favour, " You are doubtless aware that it has been my inten tion, at least for a time, to keep out of public life, that I might have an opportunity fully to recover from an illness which far more than a year has made it necessary that I should abstain from mental labour, and from the excitement which attends public affairs. "I have, therefore, not sought to be returned to Par liament, but have endeavoured to evade all invitations to become a candidate for the suffrage of any constituency, " I feel, however, that after the steps which have been taken by my friends in Birmingham I am not at ►iberty to reject the honour and the responsibility which they are disposed to offer to me, and I have intimated to them that while, strictly speaking, I aria not a candi date soliciting your suffrages, I cannot withhold such cc operation with them as may enable them hest tosustain the position they have taken in reference to the approaching election. It is on this ground, and with this explanation, that I venture to depart from my original intention not to interfere in any way in the contest in which you are now engaged. " Alter 14 years of ser►ice in the House of Commons; having spoken and voted on almost every great question which has been discussed during that period, I feel it un necessary to write at length and in detail as to my poli tical opinions and my public course. You will not re quire to be told that I am a warm supporter of such mea sures as shall render the representation of the nation more real and complete in the House of Commons, and that I shall value any scheme brought forward by the Govern ment in proportion as it is extensive in its scope and honest in its intention, and that I shall regard a wide extension of the franchise as shorn of half its virtue if it be not accompanied by the safeguard of the ballot. "I need hardly say that I strongly approve of a prin ciple which I cannot doubt is dear to the people of Bir mingham—that of local control in all matters of local in terest. I would entrust more to the inhabitants in each locality and less to the Government officials and to the Home-office. _ " With regard to a question which some time ago ex cited interest among a portion of your body—viz., the disposition of the Government to manufacture arms and other articles for the public service, and thus to compete with or destroy the private manufacturer—l have only to refer you to my course on that subject when it was be fore Parliament. I think Government manufactures money.wron wrong in principle, and always wasteful of the public " There is another question which at this moment oc cupies and absorbs public attention—the revolt In India. While I deplorable this terrible event along with the rest of my countrymen, I am, perhaps, less surprised at it than most of them are, For 12 years I have given great attention to the subject of India. I have twice brought it before Parliament,—once in moving for a select com mittee, and once in moving for a Royal commission of inquiry; and I took an active part in the debate on ths bill recently passed to continue the powers of the East India Company, and held public meetings in several of our largest cities with a view to excite public interest in the great question of the government of India. " The success of the insurrection would involve an archy in India, unless some great man, emerging from the chaos, should build up a new empire, based on and defended by military power. lam Lot prepared to de fend the steps by which England has obtained dominion in the East, but, looking to the interests of India and England, I cannot oppose such measures as may be deemed necessary to suppress the existing disorder. " To restore order to India is mercy to India ; but heavy will be the guilt of our country should we neglect hereafter any measures which would contribute to the welfare of its hundred millions of population. I hope'that the acts of the Government will be free from the vindic tive and sanguinary spirit which is shown in many of the letters which appear in the newspapers, and that when the present crisis is over all that exists of statesmanship in England will combine to work what good is possible out of so much evil. "I will say no more. The kindness shown to me by yo many among you I feel deeply. I value your good opinion as you would wish it to be va'ued. I have sought private life, and quiet for a time is needful for me. You have called on me to occupy a very honour able position, and if I am placed in it by your free choice I cannot refuse it, and I shall strive to give to you and to our country a faithful service. " I am, with the greatest respect, yours faithfully, " Tamworth, Aug. 8. JOHN BRIGHT." BEVERLEY. The nomination is fixed to take place on this (Monday) morning, and the election on Tuesday. There is a good deal of excitement prevailing among the different parties in the borough, and there is every probability that the proceedings before the hustings will be of a very turbulent character. Major Edwardes, the Conservative candidate, has daily canvassed the electors, and has also several times addressed them publicly since his arrival. Mr. Wells, the unsucce sful candidate at the last election, has also made satisfactory progress in can vassing the constituency, and has delivered several speeches. Mr. Glover, who was unseated for want of qualification, issued an address on Thursday, stating that he intended to visit the borough, and he arrived on Friday afternoon. In the evening he addressed a large crowd in the market-place, and denounced in strong terms the parties who had been instrumental in unseating him. There appeared to be a strong feeling in his favour among the crowd, and he was frequently cheered. As it had been anticipated that there would during the course of the:election be a repetition of the proceed ings associated with the last election, several Hull policemen were sent for, and they will remain is the borough until the election is over.
