GIRLS' SCHOOL main.; hour; days' servi7 and' ars la L tha dker -89,r aliug or, eavY L of sited ltieo 'The annual meeting of this school, and prize-giving to the successful pupils attending it during the past, year, ' took place on Saturday in Hope-hall, Hope-street. The Rev. Rector Campbell occupied the chair, and there were present the Rev. Dr. Hume, the Rev. J. S. How - son, the Rev. Thomas Moore, .and 'other , gentlemen,-as well as a numerous attendance of pupils and their lady friends. A hymn having been sung, The Rev..CHAIRMAN rose, and, after congratulating those present on the propitious state of the weather, said :--I rejoice that the annual statement for the last year presents so favourable an aspect. It is a source of infinite satisfaction to me that this girls' collegiate school has been established, and that it has ,progresised so favourably since its establishment. I deeply regret that such institutions have not been 'established much more extensively, particularly in large towns, and that the Church has not been sufficiently alive to her .duty in this respect as en authorised • teacher of the people. Where the fault has lain, it 'would not become me particularly to say on the present occasion,. Perhaps we are all of us to blame for neglect of duty in this surest—the clerical as well as the lay. But I must take leave to say, that the whole blame ought nat to be laid upon theclergy, because upon us a particular responsibility rests, so far as teaching the people is concerned. 'We can do nothing without the help of the laity,—it is abso lutely essential towards the extension of the tburch, and without their pecuniary aid and personal e..0-operation we. must not be blamed. This, however, may be said of such an institution as this, that it only, requires the co operation of the parents who can subscribe, towards its management, because unless it is self-supporting it cannot be properly efficient. Such institutions as this ought, therefore, to be made as far self-supped ing as possible; they ought not to be gratuitous, except perhaps in their original establishment, when a certain outlay is required. When I talk of . the church as the authorised teacher of the people, 'I speak of it as not enforcing its teaching upon any , one, but, offering its teaching, to all. That is the duty, of the Established Church—to offer .to teach the Goel, to teach chris tianity to the whole people ; and it is lamen table to think how inefficient the Church of England is from the • n-a.at isf fur carrying A nt that grPat_ and noble end, , because it is a very great miatakc to zay that the Churoh of England is rich. The Church of England, including the laity, is no doubt' the richest church in the world, but then the laity ought to be doubly alive to 'their responsibility, and not throw the, responsibility upon that abstract thing, the clergy of the church. They are the church, and they .ought to contribute funds for its extension. There is one other observation that I would make with regard to the church as a teacher of the people, and it is this,— that the church, in order to become peculiarly. that teacher, must • open its arms as widely as possible, consistently with • principle, for the comprehension of the whole .people. We must not compromise principle, but as fee, as we can, we must open the doors as wide as possible, so far, at least, as the question of education is con - cerned. Such is done in this institution. We offer every facility that we conscientiously can offer to those who do not absolutely belong to the Church. We offer them the means of religious scriptural education —the, pure Protestant principles of the Established Church. And if anything could increase my attachment to the church'established in these realms, it would be my love for her as the great bulwark of toleration. I believe , that the religious liberties, of this country are more secure by the continuance of the establishment, than by' any measure that could possibly be adopted. • I venerate the Church of England on that ground, and I have been.. very much struck : lately by the language of a distinguished nobleman who visited us not very long ago in order to advocate a church mission to Africa—l allude to Lord Brougham. We may differ from that noble lord on very many points, ,but this much must be said of him, that during the whole course of his distinguished pareer, he has always • „ borne witness to the value of the Established Church, T and , the clergy, in the promotion of education. he time was when the clergy had no g re a t xeason, perhaps, • to admire him, but I always respect him for the willing testimony he bore to the clergy in promoting national education; and recently, in his place in the House of Lords, he bore noble testimony to the ,value of the Established Church. He says :—" There was no hosti lity on the part of dissenters, personally, to the church if there was, he should be, the last, man to allow the dissenter to participate in the advantages of the endowed schools. The Church of England was publicly distinguished by all the good qualities which could do honour to the ecclesiastical character, combining, as it slid, the Evangelical and the 'Calvinistic elements, while at had over both the high advantage of a limited monarchy, of embracing in its constitution the cause of moral freedom—equally adverse as, that cause was to the ordinary despotism of some countries •and the popular tyranny of others." And be then qaoted the language of an individual who was well known Vsheistserd—and said he very well remembered Dr. S. rebuking a member of his own sect who had made an attack on the Church of England. " Not one word more," said the doctor; "because, although we may differ from them as much as do the Presby terians of Scotland, I shall never hear anything - said against such wise and tolerable neighbours.", I hind it my duty to make these few remarks, because in thisVirls' Collegiate School' we endeavotir to conform to the law which I have laid down—that we offer to teach all who are willing to avail themselves of it — forcing the conscience of none, and admitting every liberty of conscience that we possibly can without a compromise of religions principle. lam very happy to see you here to-day. I apologise for having trespassed at such length upon your time. I will, therefore, now ask Mr. Howson to proceed with the distribution of the prizes. (Applause). The Rev. J. S. Howson then offered a few observa tions. He said that although there was no direct relationship between the Collegiate Institution and the Girls' Collegiate School, yet there was a community of , interest. With respect to the operations of the Girls' 13chool during the past year, he might say that they had sustained a great' loss by the death of Miss Lee,, the superintendent, and he 'could not allow that 'occasion to pass without bearing testimony to the seal and indefatigability she had displayed in the discharge of her duties. She had great difficulties to encounter, but she succeeded in bringing the school to a high degree of prosperity. He also alluded to the manner in which the other teachers had exerted them selves during the past season. As to _funds, he was happy to say that the balance-sheet showed a sum of between £2OO and £3OO in favour of the institution. The school was in an excellent condition, and the con duct of the pupils was good, except in a very few instances. The prizes were then distributed. The , following is the lilt : PRIZE LIST. .

THE VOLUNTEER REVIEW AT CHESTER. On Wednesday afternoon a grand review will take 'place at Chester, on the occasion of the presentation of a silver bugle to the Chester Rifle Volunteers by Lady Louisa Brooke. Invitations have been sent to all parts of Cheshire and Lancashire, and it is expected that nearly 5000 volunteers will be present under arms. Colonel the Hon. Thomas Cholmondeley, Lieutenant- Colonel of the Ist Cheshire Militia, will be in com mand; and the inspecting field officer will be Colonel Richard Wilbraham, C. 8., assistant adjutant -general of the North-western district. The effective brigade will consist of twenty companies divided into two battalions of five hundred men each. The event will be one of the grandest and most brilliant that has occurred in connection with the volunteer movement in this part of the country. Special trains will run upon the Airkenhead Railway for the convenience of the public; and volunteers in uniform will be conveyed along the line of railway connected with Chester, at the rate pf a single fare for the double journey; No doubt there will be tens of thousands of spectators on• the ground if the weather prove favourable. , A grand stand will be open to the public at fixed charges. On Saturday evening the companies of Captain Cadell, Captain V. King, Captain • Chambers, and Captain Nicholson, of Cheshire, and the Ist and 16th Lancashire Volunteers assembled at Birkenhead-park, for rehearsal preparatory to the review. The companies were put through their evolutions by Captain Cadell, assisted by Major Hamilton, of the• 15th Lancashire, as major; and we have no doubt, if the whole of the companies at Chester will perform the various move ments with the precision which characterised the volunteers on Saturday evening, the review will be a great success, and worthy • of the volunteer movement in every respect. LIVERPOOL. POLICE COURT.-SATURDAY. (Before Messrs. HouoirroN andPRES T ON.), THE SCRAPE THAT LINDLEY MURRAY GOT MR. BURKE INTO. A respectable looking man, named William Burke, described as a master -cooper, in Vauxhall-road, was brought up charged, by officer 30,-who said : Last night, about a quarter to eight o'clock, I was on duty in Vauxhall-road, when L saw the pri soner drunk. acid advised him to go home, when he assaulted me, tore my coat, and kicked me in the leg: Mt: Colib (for prisoncr): Did he hui t you ? I think he did,- for I feel it. Mr. Cobb:' Did he hurt you much ? Not very ' much. Mr. Cobb : Now was not this row all about your friend I,.indley Murray? No, I don't know any one of that name, and I have no friend in Liverpool except my . wife. Mr. Cobb.: Well, was it not all about the vowels ? = No,. I don't know any such people. (Laughter.) Mr: Cobb : Was not the row, about grammar at all events ? Yes, he 'was arguing about something that way ; I did not ask him if he knew the first rules of gram- Mar ; I did not ask him if he knew the singular from the plu ral. Mr. Cobb : Well, then, did he ask you if you knew the vowels ? I tell . you I don't know such people: Mr. Cobb : I mean the alphabet vowels, and did you not say they were L and A, and then did not the men,lauo at you,_ and that caused the whole row ? There was a dispute between the pri soner and another man about something, but I had nothing to do with it. Mr. Cobb : Then, let me ask you mice more, was it not all about' your friend Lindley Murray? I tell you I have no-friend-of that name, the only friend I have in Liverpool is my . wife., Well, do you know the prisoner? Yes,'l know him to be a respectable honest man. Mr. Cobb.: Is your coat much injured? Not very. much. Mr. Cobb : Oli, thdn it can be finedrawn. Witness : Yes ; but my shin can't be finedrawn. where he kicked the skin off it. (Laughtei.) Mr. Cobb thought if the magistrate fined the prisoner the amount of !damage done to the coat, tad the ordinary' 'fine for being drunk, it would be sufficient. The magistrates fined the prisoner and costs, which,he paid. A BRUTE, Pollee-officer 442 brought up a ruffianlirlooking fellow, named James Patterson, whom he described as, a thief," tharged by a young woman, named Bridget Mally, with having Tiolently assaulted her. The young woman was in ;Afarybone the previous evening on her business, when the prisbner, whom she did not know, walked up to her and gave her a violent blow, which felled her on the stieet, and then he kicked her when down. The officer said he saw the prisoner kick the young wolnan whilst she was on the ground. The prisoner, in themost audacious way, denied that he hid acted as described. He was sentenced to pay £5 fine, or three months' imprison- Merit. FINGER BREAKING. Mary Anne Jones was charged by her Sister-in-laW, Char lotte Plaistow, a green-grocer and smallware dealer in.Dausie street, fOr having stolen a pair of scales and for having broken her finger. Mr. Cobb was for the prosecution; and from his statement and the ht that tha married to the brother 'of complainant, and that some ill feeling existed between them. 'On Thursday' night,: the pri soner, whilst in drink went to complainant'sshop and seized on a beam and scales, with w hi c h s h e struck the complainant, and broke one of her fingers, and then ran off with the beam and scales; but returned 'them the.next day. The coarge of Stealing fell to the ground, but the prisoner was remanded for ,the production of another,witness.• HUSBAND AND WIFE. ' James M'Carthy was charged by his wife Catherine for an assault: Mr. Bluck was for the complainant, and Mr. Cobb for the defence. The prisoner keeps a grocer's shop in Mary bone, and it . appeared that the parties have lived very unhappily. On Monday last the prisoner was bound over. to keep the peace for having violently assaulted the complainant,. but on Thursday she w en t, to the house o f h er h usband to look for some money,.when sae was assaulted by him. It appeared that they live separately, but defendant does not allow her any thing, according to her statement. In reply to Mr. Cobb, the complainant said she was willing to take a child, five years old, and a weekly allowance, and to keep away from her "hnsbarid. A witness, named Sarah• Smith, proved that she saw the prisoner assault his wife. He was ordered to pay a fine of 10s. and costs. THE . DEPARTURE OF THE GREAT EASTERN. . ON BOARD THE GREAT EASTERN, S. S. SOUTHAMPTON, Saturday NOQII. After no end of disappointment, the great ship is now 'about to start upon her voyage which is to decide the 'many vexed questions as to how She will behave in the broad Atlantic. Will she roll ?• • Will she pitch ? Will she take in no end of green seas over her tall bows as she drives with her giant speed through the water ? What will be her .speed through the ocean ? And what confirmation, or the reverse; will she afford to the much-lauded, but wholly incompieliensible wave theory? These, and a hundred other questions of grave import to persons who are compelled by busi ness or urged by pleasure to go down to sea i n great - ships are now on the eve of being decided, and on the results, which in ten days from the present time I hope to communicate to you, will depend whether a new era in the building of ocean steamers is to be inaugurated, or whether the grand idea of the late Mr. Brunel is to be a great success or a gigantic failure. I have men tioned ten days as the period in which I think the run will be made to New York. This will not, perhaps, Satisfy the sanguine expectations of many who have expected a much higher rate of speed; but let it• be bOrne in mind that the Adriatic has just made a return voyage from New York to Southampton in tea days, and under the favourable circumstances of having had her engines well worked, and the hull perfectly ,dean. The Persia, too, has only made the run to Queenstown in ten days, , under conditions equally as favourable as those of the Adriatic. The tonnage of the Great Eastern is some 20,000 tons, that of the Persia a little over 3,000 tons ; the horse power of tne " big amp" is out 2,000 horses, and it will be a great result in the annals of steam naviga tion, if, with such a comparatively small amount of horse-power, a vessel of such gigantic size is taken across the Atlantic in the same period as smaller vessels propelled with relatively a very much larger power. The falling off in the speed of the great ship in the trial trip last Saturday and Sunday, owing to the foul state of the bottom, and the very awkward trim. of the ship, are matters that may be better arranged in future, arrd.but for these she would most assuredly have attained the speed for which she was intended, and which it must not be forgotten was but 14 knots per hour, or sufficient to take her to Calcutta within a less period, via the Cape of Good Hope, than is now occupied by the journey via Suez. The result of the trial of the Great Eastern down Channel, on Saturday week, was considered so satisfac tory by, the officers of the Board of Trade that a certi ficate of her fitness for ocean navigation was granted on Thursday. Mr. M'Clennan, the engineer-in -chief having had his large .staff of subordinates some time under his control, has succeeded in drilling them into a tolerable state of efficiency. In the case of the crew, however, the presence of a large number of workmen on board the vessel has obstructed Captain Vine Hall in his unceasing efforts to introduce such a degree of organisation as will ensure the voyage across the Atlantic being performed. with certainty and safety; and it is probable we shall not start to-day, in order that more time may be afforded for getting the men to • their duties. A communication has been _received from the Pilot Board of New York, placing at their dis posal a "slip" or berth, which will permit of the Great Eastern lying alongside a dock, and thus enable visitors to go on board without the inconvenience of employing boats—a course very conducive to the comfort of persons desirous of inspecting the ship, and to the interests of the company. Mr. Murphy, the New York pilot, who was on board during the trial on Saturday week, was so satisfied, by the result of that trial, of the perfect Ma nageability of the ship, that- he contemplates no more difficulty in taking her across the bar at Sandy Hook than is usually experienced in the case of the Persia or the Adriatic. Thirty-six passengers are on board. The majority are Americans. Several ladies have evinced their courage by determining to share the fortunes of the great ship. For the many improvements which have been effected in the machinery and fittings of the vessel the company are indebted to the practical engineering knowledge of Mr. Gooch, and to the professional ability of Captain C ou a t r n in e g t i h e , e R s h . N i p .., t w In o t o h f i s t r h e e sp d e i c r t e , e t t h o e r s n , e b v. o . t b h of o ardwh possesses go a decided advantage over that which conducted the affairs under the old regime. There is, unfortunately, no gridiron at any of the American ports long enough to take the Great Eastern, so that the bottOm may be cleaned, but one of 300 le. a 6 MilfuLd Haveu, its being lengthened, so as to fit it hereafter for the use of the great ship.,, ‘ Mr. Scott Russell has been on board all the morning, and appears to have undiminished confidence in the ultimate success of his huge favourite. The compasses have all been tested within a few days, and no variation from attraction has been detected. There is, of :course, at the present moment, as there alWaysis on the departure of an outwdrd-bound ship, much to be done iu the way of getting everything in order; and the confusion of passengers arriving, and stores and provisions being taken on board is rapidly giVing way to order. Thexaptain of , a steamer going to. Southampton will convey this hastily-written emu . - munication in time for its transmission by railway to the Observer office. GREAT EA STERN STILL AT SOUTHAMPTON. A telegram from Southampton, received at the observer office at 12 p.m. on Saturday night, states that the Great Eastern had not started. She would, in all probability, leave yesterday (Sunday), or, at the latest, on this (Monday) afternoon. The caution of Captain Ball in not putting out to sea untillie hasliis crew well up to their duties is no doubt the cause of this delay, as it was understood that he would not start until after his men had been three clear days on board, and after all the workmen had retired from the ship. It was not until Thursday evening that the workmen had left the Great Eastern. THE START. SOUTHAMPTON, June 17. The Great Eastern left her moorings at eight o'clock this morning. Mr. Bowyer, the pilot, left; her three miles outside the Needles at 10.20 a.m., proceeding on her passage. All well. LUCIFER MATCHES.-It is said the insurance offices intend presenting a petition to the Emperor Napoleon, praying that a law may be passed to prohibit' the safe of matches made with white phosphorus, and to allow none but those made of amorphous phosphorus to be made for the future. Official returns show that the average annual number of. accidental fires in France was about 2,200 up to 1838, before friction matches came into use. In 1844, the number had risen to 4,000, which has constantly increased, till in 1857 there were 10;000 fires, AMERICA. The British and North American royal mail steamship Persia, C. H. E. hidlans commander, with New York dates to the 6th instant, arrived in the Mersey this morning at eight o'clock. She has brought $1,037,696 and 233 passengers, a list of whom is given below. It was expected that Congress would adjourn on the 18th instant. The bill providing for the •return of captured slaves to Africa had finally passed. THE TORNADO IN lOWA AND ILLINOIS. CHICAGO, June 4. • A terrible tornado passed over the eastern part of lowa and the northwest part of Illinois last night. The telegraph lines west of the Mississippi being down, we are unable to ascertain how far west the tornado reached, and what is the real amount and-loss of life and, property. The tornado commenced at Clinton, lowa, at half past seven o'clock last evening, and although lasting but two and a half minutes, caused more destruction of life and property than any similar storm that has ever visited this portion of the country. The towns of Camanche, lowa, and Albany, on opposite sides of the river, and five miles south of Clinton, were, completely demolished. In the former place thirty-two dead bodies have already been taken from the ruins, and there are still a number that cannot be got at. In Albany, five or six dead bodies have been found, with about fifty wounded, some of them seriously. The citizens of Fulton, Illinois, and Clinton, lowa, are doing everything in their power to relieve the sufferers. From other towns on the route of the tornado that can be reached by telegraph, we learn .that the des truction of life and property was equally as great. At Lynden, three miles south of Sterling, several per sons were killed, and fiteen persons in that vicinity were badly injured by having arms and legs broken. The storm passed two miles north of Amboy. Report says that over ten lives were lost there, and a number badly injured. The tornado appears to have taken a course almost due east from the Mississippi to Rock River. Scarcely a house or a barn on the direct track, which was about halt a mile in width, was left standing. Erom all accounts not less than sixty-nine lives were lost. The extent of damage to property, which is very large, cannot be fully ascertained for some time. At a public meeting of the citizens of Fulton it was resolved to furnish the sufferers with homes and all the assistance required. CHICAGO, - June 5, 1860. From telegraphic messages received here last night and this morning, we learn the following further parti culars in regard to the tornado of Sunday morning. The first that was heard of it was between Marion and Cedar Rapids, in Lynn county, lowa, going northwest and southeast, in three different currents, crossing the track of the Chicago, lowa, and Nebraska Railroad several times. At Lisbon station the depot buildings and all the warehouses in the village were completely demolished. A train of ten freight cars, heavily loaded, was lifted from the track bodily, and dashed to pieces. Before the tornado reached Lisbon it had killed sixteen persons. From there one current' of the storm passed'nOrth tlnough Mechanicsville, demolishing every thing in its course and killing sixteen persons more. Another current 'took in its course Onion Grove, killing in that vicinity seventeen persons. It then passed south of the railroad near De Witt, killing twenty-seven persons, sixteen of whom belonged to the family of Thomas Hatfield. The current then passed south, of Rowmersa and Low-Moor, destroying the house of David Willard, killing him and a portion of his fam 4l y. "It then struck the town of Camanche,,,pn the Missi ssippi river, at which point the, loss of life is much greater than was at first stated. From all accounts there cannot be less than fifty-five killed at this place. Some reports state even a larger number, but the bodies cannot be found. There are also 125 wounded, some fatally, and ten missing. A large lumber raft from the Chippewa river, manned by a crew of twenty-four men, with two women on board, which was tied up opposite Camanche at the time of the tornado, was completely• scattered, and twenty-one of the men and both women were lost. Six persons in •the family of H. SesSions, proprietor of the Millard House, were badly injured. The tornado is known to have traversed a distance of ninety miles in lowa, and seventy miles in Illinois, doing incalculable damage to property. The loss of life cannot be less than one hundred and fifty. During the entire day yesterday two trains were run every hour from Clinton to the scene of destrnction, and through the aid of efficient committees much relief has been rendered. PRESENTS FOR CAPTAIN HUDSON, OF THE NAVY. Some very splendid presents have been received at the Navy Department, from the Emperor of Russia and the Queen of England, through their respective 'minis ters, for Captain Hudson, of the United States Navy. They consist of elegant diamond snuff boxes and dia mond pins of the most elaborate workmanship. These presents cannot be received by him ualess Congress authorises it. THE PRINTING QUESTION. :The House of Representatives has, by a h ndsome -majority, agreed to abolish the.pernicious practice of electing a printer to the houses, each a means of poli tical corruption, and to establish a government printing office. THE CAPTURED AFRICANS AND THE SLAVE TRAD.E. It is asserted and believed, by those who have the best means of knowing, that where one slave vessel is detected by the government with its cargo of Africans, ten succeed in landing the negroes and distributing them over the South. A leading slaveholder has said that the result of this kind of traffic, if tolerated, will be to make the slave -breeding States free. The Navy Department has received the official account of the recent capture of slavers on the Cuban coast from the commanders of vessels now at Key West. After graphically detailing the manner of running the vessels down, and the various subterfuges attempted by the slavers to escape, the officer says :—The Wildfire is a new vesssl, and very handsome. The William is ten or twelve years old, very fast and roomy. She could carry comfortably five hundred negroes back to Africa. The negroes are dying so fast now that there will not be more than seven or eight hundred to send back out of all that have been captured. He further says, there are but two signs that I can discover or hear of by which a vessel can be known without boarding her. First, the slave galley— and this may be neatly covered, but not entirely hid. Secondly, all slavers slip oue anchor and chain as soon as they get their cargo, and consequently have but one anchor on the bow. The captured vessels were all arranged so as to scuttle the ship in case she should be left alone. On examination A found two holes with plugs ready to be taken out. THE CANADIAN RECIPROCITY TREATY. Considerable alarm is manifested at the present agita tion in regard to the attempted abrogation of the Canadian reciprocity treaty. The President is known to be averse to it, and will do all in his power to amend it. He considers its workings to be injurious to the American people. Lord Lyons is considerably "exercised" upon the subject. PERSONAL EXPLANATIONS AND SCENES IN CONGRESS. Mr. Chandler (rep.), of Mich., rose to a question of privilege. He found in the Globe language attributed to the senator of Indiana, in which he characterised him (IVIr. Claudler) as Xantippe in pants, and accused him of gross ignorance. He had not heard the language, butt if used, it shows the senator was incapable of appre ciating the position which, by accident, he held on that floor. Mr. Fitch (dem.), of Ind., avowed the language, and still thought it appropriate. Mr. Chandler said that when the Post-office Bill again came up he would discuss it, and the question of igno rance would then be determined. In another debate the following scene took place : Mr. Houston rose, but was met with a perfect volley of " Order, order ;" but he maintained his stand in an excited manner, and as the uproar around him subsided, he said, addressing the member from Massachusetts (Mr. Train) 1 I would like to know whether the gentleman applies his remarks to me ? Mr. Train (quietly but emphatically)—Yes, I mean exactly what I say, and what I did say I stand by. Mr. Houston, who remained standing, no sooner attempted to speak thanehe was again vociferously called to order, but he in loud tones made himself heard above the din, as in an excited and menacing manner, he shouted out—Then I say you are a disgraceful liar and scoundrel. Mr. Train—l cannot be intimidated by you, sir. Mr. Houston—No, sir. The confusion and uproar was berg renewed and redoubled. , A BRIDE GIVEN AWAY BY THE PRESIDENT, A spectacle of great interest has stirred the memories and associations of the old habitues of Washington more than anything else . that has occurred here for a long time; At noon, in St. John's Church, Lafayette square, the Countess Boadicea, widow of the late dis tinguished and popular Minister from Russia, was married to Captain Douglas Gordon Scott, of Scotland. The bride was given away by President Buchanan. INDIAN OUTRAGES IN ARIZONA. A correspondent at Hexilla, Arizona, reports Indian outrages in various parts of the territory, A train of twenty-four mules with sugar from Sonora was attacked by the Appacbes near the Hanover copper mines and captured. Five persons were killed. THE JAPANESE AND THE LADIES . The Japanese officials are seriously exercised in their minds, and not a little frightened, at the strange scenes and queer people about the capital. It is said also that they begin to wish themselves well out of the country. Various causes have been assigned by philosophers, who have been doing an immense amount of Japanese cram-, ming latterly. But, says the New York Herald,. they are all wrong. The trouble is about the American women. The Japanese have been overwhelmed in a sea of crinoline. They have been encompa;Sed by hoops of steel. They have been stared out of -counte nance by the bright eyes of Columbia's maids and matrons in Congress assembled. Wherever they have been, there has been the same impenetrable wall of American female chattering, flirting, staring, giggling, wondering, guessing, reckoning or calculating, accord ing to the line of country from whence she hails.' The feminine rush after the Japanese has been something tre mendous ; and as the atmosphere of Washington 'is not favourable to the growth of modesty, the Ambassadors have been terribly shocked. In their country, when strangers arrive in a city or village, the women all run away and hide themselves. Isere, the women all run after them, as if they desired to eat them up, and were afraid there would not be a piece left if they (lid not make haste. BLOODY BATTLE & TERRIBLE SLAUGHTER OF WHITE MEN BY INDIANS. , SAN FRANCISCO, May 18, 3.40 P.M. The last pony express took the intelligence that several Americans had been murdered by the Indians ' while asleep at Miller's station on Carson river, some thirty miles from the settlement of Carson Valley, and also that various companies had organised at Virginia City, Cold Hill, and other settlements in the Washoe mines, and gone in support of the Indians supposed to have com mitted the murders. It subsequently appeared that these volunteers united in one body, and under the command of Major Ormsby they were mounted and numbered 105 men. This force, on the 12th instant, at four p.m., came upon Indians at the bend of the Quichie river, about 65 miles northward towards Pyramid lake from Virginia City, The Indians were in ambush at a narrow pass through which Major Ormsby's party were proceeding, and num bered, it is supposed, not less than 500, all having fire- . arms, plenty of ammunition, and 1,500 horses within a convenient -distance. They opened a fire upon the troops from their safe hiding place ; Major Ormsby ordered a charge, but the Indians continued to skulk, firing oocasionally from behind the rocks and sage bushes, and doing damage, without suffering much in return. This condition of things continued for some two. hours, when the ammunition of Ormsby's party gave out. The Indians, seeing this, closed upon our men, pouring in volley after volley, killing many on the spot, and the balance retreated, scattering in all direc tions over the hills and among the sage bushes. They were pursued twenty-fire or thirty miles by the mounted Indians, and many detached parties cut off. The survivors came straggling into Virginia city during the two subsequent days. The exact number of killed is not yet ascertained, but it probably exceeds 50. Total known to be killed, 21 ; wounded, 3 ; fate unknown, 43; returned alive, 38. Waggons have been sent out 'to pick up any wounded that may be found, and also an armed force to protect parties burying the dead, but no account is yet received from the battle-ground. THE DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 18, 1860. YELLOW FEVER At Pernambuco, the yellow fever has been and con tinues prevalent and very fatal-- - -.never more so. Scarcely one person who ha 4 been attacked has escaped. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN MISSISSIPPI. The Vicksburg (Miss.) Sun of the 29th ult., records the following account of a dreadful tragedy near that • city : A few years ago Mr. Lafayette Lee was married to a young lady of this county, Miss Hicks, and remained for some time at the residence of his wife's father. In a short time Lee gave unmistakable evidence of being dissatisfied, and treated his young wife unkindly. A temporary separation took place, during which Mrs. Lee remained at her father's house until a reconciliation was effected. Lee, a few months ago, went to Hazzlehurst for the pUrpose of teaching school. He was unsuccess ful, and finally returned to this county and solicited the assistance of Mr. Flowers, who was a relative. Mr. Flowerrgenerously tendered the hospitalities of his house to Lee and his wife, who accepted them. Mr. F. frequently saw enough to convince himself that Lee treated his wife unkindly, and remonstrated with him, and urged him to make some exertion to support his family, proffering to assist him in any laudable effort., On Thursday last Mrs. Lee expressed her anxiety to 'see her mother, and a wish to visit her home if she could obtain conveyance. Mr. Flowers informed her that his carriage was at her service for that purpose whenever she wished it. Lee remarked that she should not go, and threatened to kill her if she did so. Having been repeatedly threatened'by him in a like manner, she did not appear alarmed. On Friday the subject was again alluded to, and. Lee persisted in his threat. A short time after Mrs. Lee sat down to play a game of chess with Mr. Flowers, Lee occupying a position immediately behind Mr. F:' In a few moments an expression of horror was noticed upthi the fare of 11fra who Appeared to be e ayin ff at ho. husband. Mr. Flowers, thinking perhaps that Lee was suddenly taken ill, turned and asked him what was the matter. The answer given was that nothing was the matter with him. He resumed his play, when the report of a pistol was heard, and Mrs. Lee started convulsively, exclaiming that she was shot. Mr. F. immediately caught her on his left arm and sup ported her sinking form. Lee now advanced and fired again at his wife and once at Mr. Flowers. Mrs. Lee, by this time, had sunk nearly to the floor, supported by the left arm of Mr. Flowers, who - drew revolver from his pocket and partially turning, fired five times (over his shoulder) at Lee. Each ball took effect in the face . of Lee. One near the right temple —one near the middle of the itrehead—one near the left temple—one in the jaw, and the other just above the mouth. Lee fell and died immediately. The wound inflicted upon Mrs. Lee was of a most dangerous character. The ball entered just above the right breast, ranging downward to the waist, and coming out near the spine. At the last accounts she was in a a most critical position. Elsewhere we learn from the Sun that not only the Coroner's jury, but all the neighbours best acquainted with the affair, fully approve, and commend the act of Mr. Flowers, who is beloved by all who know him.

Distin, the well-known military musical instrument makers, are at present constructing a drum which will probably be the largest in the world. It is nearly seven feet in diameter, and only within a few inches of seven feet high. It is being made specially for the approaching contest of brass bands at the Crystal Palace, and will, no doubt, be able to make itself heard above the.tempest of brazen sounds that will accompany it. The same firm are also constructing a very large contra bass horn, to be contended -for as a prize. It is so large that the player has to pass his head through several tiers of brass tubing, the instrument resting on his shoulders, yet, notwithstanding the 4ize, it is said to bq easily sounded. • THE OYSTER SLOOP MURDER. CONFESSION OF - HICKS, alias JOHNSON INTERESTING DEVELOPMENT 'AND. PAR TICULARS OF THE TRAGEDY. Albert W. Hicks, alias Johnson, the murderer of the captain and crew of the sloop E. A. Jdhnson, has made a full confession of his guilt to his keepers at the City Prison. The news was communicated by one of the officials at the Tombs, and may be considered•reliable in every respect. Hicks says that the murders were committed between nine and ten o'clock at night while all the crew were below, except one of the Watts boys. Hicks was steer ing at the time, while Watts was at the bow on the look out. Hicks stole forward, and with an axe dealt his unsuspecting victim such a blow that he killed him outright. The noise awakened the other Watts who was below, and as the latter was coming up the com panionway to see what was the matter Hicks despatched him also with the same weapon. The murderer then started for the cabin, where Captain Btir was lying asleep, and made an attack upon him. The struggle between Hicks and the Captain was a desperate one, and lasted for several minutes ; but at length the mur derer overpowered his victim and knocked his brains out with an axe. Hicks says that the captain fought hard, but being unarmed, he was a poor match for him. In reference to the knife marks found on the bulwarks of the sloop, Hicks says that they were not made by him. The bodies were not thrown overboard for an hour or more after the murders had been committed; so that he had no occasion to cut the hands of his vic tims as they clung to the rail, as was supposed. When asked how he felt on board the sloop after the commission of the murders, he replied that the devil sustained him, and he felt good enough. "He has deserted me now, though," resumed the murderer, "and I feel bad enough." At the conclusion of the confession a long conversation ensued between the cul prit and . the keeper, which ran somewhat after the following style : Keeper—You say that the captain struggled hard before he died ? Hicks—Yes, he fought bard, but I brought him at last. Keeper—You say the devil was with you, and sus tqined you during the time you were on board with the murdered men ? Hicks—Yes, the devil was the fifth man, and he sus tained me throughout the whole scene. He has left me since, though. Keeper—Whereabouts was the sloop when the mur ders were committed? Hicks—We were about fifty miles out at sea.' They say that one of the bodies has been found. How is that ? Keeper—That is the report. Hicks—l don't believe it. I was too far out at sea, and took good care that they should not come up.. Keeper—How about the murders on the ship Sala din, which you are suspected of being implicated in ? Hicks—Well, I have been mixed up in a great many scrapes. You will hear all about it when my life comes out in pamphlet form. The pamphlet is to be published for the benefit of my widow, and will be issued in a few days. Our reporter was informed that Unitid States Mar shal Rynders had given an order not to allow any person to visit Hicks. The gentleLan who visits the prison for the purpose of getting the necessary materials for the biography is an exception, however, and is per mitted to enter the cell every morning. Hicks appeared perfectly cool during the time he made this confession. Sometimes, however, he was not disposed to answer freely all the questions put to him by the keeper, and acted as though he was half sorry for having made a confession at all. He has a great desire to see his wife, who is now excluded from his cell and says her presence would add greatly to his ease of mind. The keepers are afraid that Hicks has some idea of making his escape, and will not allow him to see auy one, much less his wife. The prisoner spends the greater part of his time in smoking and looking over illustrated newspapers. Oc casionally he indulges in singing some verses of his own composition, and in chatting with his keeper. THE COURT. BUCKINGHAM PALACE-SATURDAY, JUNE 16 The Queen rode out.horseback this morning in company with his Royal 'Highness the Prince Consort, and his Royal Highness the Count of Flanders. The Hon. Miss Stopford, Maid of Honour in Waiting, and the Equerries in Waiting to the Queen and Prince attended. The Earl of St. Germans, Lord Steward; and Lord Castlerosse, Vice-Chamberlain, attended at the'palace this forenoon. Her Majesty took an airing in an open carriage and four about five o'clock this afternoon, accompanied by Princess Helena and Prince Arthur, and attended by Lady Gainsborough. • The Prince Consort rode on horseback with the Count cle - ieraliders. The Hon. Colonel a Hog and Major Burrell were in attendance. Her Royal Highness the Princess Alice left the palace at seven o'clock this evening, attended by Lady C. Barrington and General Wylde, to honour the per formance of " Richelieu" at the Princess's Theatre, with her presence. His Royal Highness the Prince Consort, attended by the Hon. Col. de Ros, went, shortly before eight o'clock, to St. James's Palace, in order to be present at the grand banquet of the_ officers of the Grenadier Regiment of the Foot Guards, of which corps his royal highness is Colonel, in commemoration of this being the 200th anniversary of the regiment. At ten minutes before nine o'clock the Queen left the palace' for the Olympic Theatre, .to honour with her presence the performance of "Daddy Hardacre." The Count de Flanders accompanied her Majesty, who was attended by the Maids of Honour in Waiting, Lord Torrington, and Major-General Seymour. The Count de Flanders was attended by Major Burnell, aid-de-camp to his royal highness. On Monday (to-day), her Majesty and the Prince Consort will, it is expected, dine with his Royal High ness the 'Duke of Cambridge, at his residence, Gloucester House, Piccadilly. On Wednesday next, the 20th instant, the Queen will hold a levee in St. James's Palace. On Friday, the 22nd instant, her Majesty will give a state ball in Buckingham Palace. Invitations have been issued to a very numerous party of the nobility and gentry. CABINET COUNCIL. —A Cabinet Council was sum moned on Saturday morning, to meet in the afternoon, at Lord Palmerston's residence in Downing-street. All the members assembled except the Duke of Argyll, still confined to the house by an attack of measles, and the Right Hon. Sir George Grey, who has left town to attend the funeral of his brother, recently deceased, in Ireland. THREATENED MUTINY IN PORTLAND PRISON. Much excitement has been caused in Portland and Weymouth by the demonstration of mutinous feeling on the part of the convicts in the prison ,at Portland. Rumour says that the prisoners had plotted to murder the governor, Captaiu Clay, during one of his regular rounds of inspection. They thus hoped to obtain the keys of the prison. It is also stated that they further entertained the outrageous intention of setting fire to the establishment. Another report was to the effect that a great body of the convicts intended making a rush to the doors, and forcing egress when they were opened to admit provisions. It is rumoured that there are about 500 convicts, transported for life, in the prison, who are supposed to be the ringleaders in the contemplated mutiny. The number of prisoners in, the establishment is about 1,600. SUPERANNUATION OF POOR-LAW OFFICERS. On Saturday a deputation of the Poor-law Officers of Unions waited on the Right Hon: C. President of the Poor-law Board, for the purpose of getting in serted in the Poor-law Continuance Bill a clause em powering Boards of Guardians to grant superannuation allowances to poor-law officers. Mr. Driscoll (of _the Hackney Union) opened the business by stating that a similar deputation had waited on the former president (Mr. S. Estcourt) on behalf of poor-law officers inca pacitated by infirmity from continuing to peiform their duties, and they had received from Mr. Estcourt promise that a clause should be inserted in the next Continuance Bill for authorising the allowance.of such superannuations. But after the retirement of the late ministry the bill remained in abeyance. Mr. Driscoll then re-argued the arguments used by .former depu tations on this subject. Mr. Villiers (President of the Poor-law• Board) replied that he was not aware that the board bad any intention not to carry out the promise made by Mr. Estcourt, and therefore there was no ground for the rumour which had reached the depu tation. The subject had received the careful attention of the Poor-law Board, and the course would be pursued which was most consistent with the justice of the case. The deputation returned thanks, and then withdrew. CIVIL SERVICE ESTIMATES.—The seventh diviiion of the civil service estimates 'or 1860, showing- the esti mates for miscellaneous, special, and temporary objects, has been issued. The total estimate amounts to £723,001. This sum is made up by a number of snialler ones. The Rangoon (late Gibralter) telegraph is to cost £87,000, the Westminster-bridge approaches £80,000; the mer chant seamans' fund, pensions, &c. , £68,700 ; the local dues on shipping under treaties of reciprocity £50,000 ; the Westminster-bridge works £38,170 ; temporary com mission £37,480 ; Treasury :chests abroad, freight of specie, &c. £32,442 ; Patent Office salaries, &c. £28,229. There are many other items besides these-49 in all— but most of them are comparatively unimportant in amount. On the whole, there is a decrease in the Wt4l 413401111 t of the estimates of £2621874, THE RIFLE' 'CORPS' IrOVENENTr'x' GRAND FIELD -DAY OF THE VOLUNTEERS IN THE REGENT'S PARK.) . • On Saturday, •a grand field day and prelimilary review took place in the. Regent's Park, under the command of Lord •Elcho, and in the presence of Colonel M‘Murdo, inspector-general of the volunteer forces, who was accompanied on the ground by Colonel 111‘Millan., The various corps under review mustered on the ground about six o'clock, all accompanied by their bands, and were received with the greatest enthusiasm by the spectators, who could have been little short of 50,000 or 60,000. There were in all 13 cbrps represented comprising in the aggregate about 5,0(10 men. The ground selected fer the review was in the centre of the great park. Various battalions had just got into position, when shouts arose, of " The Queen, the Queen," -and her Majesty, in an open landau, and one or two other carriages following, was observed driving round the outer circle of the park, and was greeted with the cheers of, those who were in close proximity. Lord Elcho, as before stated, took the chief command, and was ably supported by Colonel - Freemantle of the Guards, who acted as his chief aide-de-camp. Being placed in battalions the movements commenced; the columns moved in echelon, marched in fours right and fours left, changed front, and formed into line with the most beau tiful precision. They then took ground to the right by the front, quick march, and right wheel. The Queen's (Westminster) formed the right, and the London Scot tish the left flank, and at a given signal of " Officers to the front in review order," the whole of the 'officers appeared in front of their different corps, and presented arms at the same moment, the whole of the. bands striking up " God Save the Queen." The next order was "Officers to their posts in battalions ;" and in an incredibly short space of time, on the word being given, " columns take ground to the right, by the front, quick march," and "right wheel," the entire brigade changed its front, and were ready for the next movement—" Brigade to march past in quick time, in open column from the front." The entire body then formed into companies, and marched past and between certain points marked by flags in open column distance, each corps preceded by its band playing. The effect was exceedingly grand, and the marching on the whole excellent. The next movement was " Close to quarter dictance column on leading division," and this having been executed, the brigade was again formed into batta lions, and having performed some marchings and counter-marchings, the whole were • bronght to, a halt, and the word was given, " Mounted ' officers to the front." The various mounted •officers imme diately galloped to the spot where Lord, Elcho and his staff were stationed, and were addressed by his lordship. Lord Elcho said he had the greatest pleasure of ih forming them that upon Colonel Wlturdo, the In pector-General of the Volunteer Corps, quitting the ground he had expressed to him (Lord Elcho) not only his gratification, but his utter surprise -at the,soldier like precision with which the various evolutioni he had witnessed had been executed ; and he further remarked that, if the various manoeuvres were only executed with equal precision on the 23rd, that he had ho. fear but the Volunteer Review in the presence of her Majesty would be a perfect success. There was one point upon which Col. Wlfurdo wished particularly to impress, upon the com manding officers of the various corps, and 'that was in relation to the uniformity of the dress they should wear on the 23rd instant. It was perfectly understood that, . every corps would appear in full parade uniform ; but what was desired was that, if leggings were to be used at all, the entire corps should be compelled to wear them ; or, if trowsers were to be worn, then no member should be permitted to wear leggings—whether trowsers or leggings, let there be uniformity in each particular corps. A similar remark would apply to wearing great coats. The word of command, " dismiss," was then given, it being just nine o'clock, and the various corps marched off the ground in different directions, their respective bands playing lively airs. The whole affair may in truth be said to have. been a complete rehearsal of the review orders for next Satur day, which will no doubt be one of the most noble sights that has been witnessed in this 'country for many years: The people appeared to feel that the' soldiers they were then witnessing performing their evointions were of their own order ; and they were really. a body of noble-minded patriots, who were ready to,,take the field in defence of their Queen and country. It is worthy of remark that there were from 50,000 - to 60,000 people in the park, as spectators, kept in order without a single policeman. There was only one accident, and that was to the brougham of a gentleman named Slight, residing at No. 8, Russell-square. It appears that the hrougham was proceeding with some ladies to the new carriage drive, near the villa of the late Sir Isaac Lionel Gold amid, at the entrance to which there are sonic posts still remaining. The North Middlesex Rifles were marching • in with their band, and the sound of the music caused the horse to take fright., and it started off, bringing Oa° • hind wheels of the brougham in contact with one of the ' posts, the result of which was to detach them entirely from the body of the brougham, leaving it on the grass, over which the horse dragged it for some distance. The ladies were exceedingly frightened, but in no way hurt. TUE GREAT VOLUNTEER INSPECTION. The great volunteer inspection by her Majesty in Hyde Park ilkxt Saturday, will not only be the most brilliant sight of the season, but the most impressive witnessed during the present generation. Thu arrange ments are in the hands of Colonel M‘Murdo, to whose judgment and energy her Majesty and - the public may look forward with the utmost confidence for a successful spectacle, and about 25,000 volunteers will be under arms on the occasion. The formations and movements to be gone through will be of 'necessity very simple, as the most experienced troops to the number we have mentioned conid not hope to go through any complicated or elaborate manoeuvres within the available space in Hyde-park. There will be no firing or marching past in slow time. The general arrangements, as regards the position of the spectators, will be exactly similar to those made at the first presentation of the Victoria Cross by her Majesty. The Volunteers will be drawn up facing Park lane, in a line of contiguous battalion columns, at quarter distance, that is, within an interval of six paces between each. Her Majesty will proceed along the line, inspecting each corps in succession, and will then take her place at a point about the centre of the line of spectators facing the volunteers, who will then march pa'st at quick pace in quarter distance column. Having returned to their original position, the whole force will advance in line to salute. This will complete the ceremony. . All branches of the volunteer service will be repre sentZd. The Duke of Manchester and Colonel Lloyd Lindsay will each command a body of mounted rifle men, and the artillery will be formed into a brigade under the command of Lord Colville, the Colonel of the Honourable Artillery Company. The general arrange ments of the brigade must, to a certain extent, depend upon the regiments likely to arrive from the provinces. Should the weather be fine, the spectacle presented ill Hyde-park will be one of which her Majesty, and her volunteers, and her people may be mutually proud. THE PRIZE MEETING OF THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION. The approaching cnntest in rifle shooting, to com mence on Monday, the 2nd of July, at Wimbledon, under the management of the National Rifle Association, is now looked forward to with great interest by the various volunteer corps throughout the country. The task which the council have set themselves "is to give permanence to volunteer corps, and to promote rifle shooting throughout Great Britain." With the view of carrying out these very laudable objects, it is proposed, among other things, to have in each year a meeting, open to all enrolled volunteer corps, at which a certain number of their members may compete for prizes. The association offer; as prizes twenty Whitworth rifles of the value of twenty-tivo gpineas each, fitted in oak cases complete ; a gold and a silo medal; one prize of £lOO, and four of £25 each. The Queen gives a prize of £250, the Prince Consort one of £lOO, and the Duke of Cam bridge £5O. The whole value of the prizes will be about £2,000. At the great triennial meeting, which takes place in Switzerland, the money value of the prizes com peted for is not less than £lO,OOO. The meetings of the Rifle Asssciation will be held each year in a different part in the country, and every third year it will be held-in 'Scotland. The site selected by the association for this year is Wimbleton Common, and on the report of Sir John Burgoyne, showing the suitability of the spot, the Government have consented ' to grant the use of that range. For the' volunteer prizes there will be six ranges, of 300, 500, GOO, 800, 900, and 1,000 yards. At the shortest. of these ranges the shooting will be off the shoulder, but at the longer ones it will be from the knee, according to the Hythe posi tion. The target at three hundred yards range will be six feet by four feet, with an eight-inch bullseye, and two feet centre. At the remaining distances the target will be six feet square, with a two feet centre. At the longest range of 1,000 yards the target six feet in height will present a mark of little more than the twelfth of an inch square, and the bullseye of two feet will be the merest white speck. A musket-ball in. its course falls about six inches for each 100 yards, so that to hit the target, small as it appears, at 1,000 yards, the marks man will have to aim at least five feet above it. With the old regulation musket it is said to be .necessary, in order to strike a man at GOO yards, to aim I'3o feet ab9Te him. General Hay, at the head of the School • h r ketry at Hythe, can, it is said, to— Mus -1,100 yards lodge a buli. 4 • The twenty C••" . , ... L. in the cenatreciniofektihye and at uest shots at ranges of 300, 500, and uuo yards will be entitled to the prize of a I Whitworth rifle, and the competitors will be placed. order of their -nittilleivt whets will be the limit in point of number for each competitor, and the prizes will be adjudged according to the, aggregate . number of points made. The ,Government have furnished the association 'with 1,000 rifles, :to be sent to the different corps, to' be practised - with pre vious to the competition. With each rifle they, have supplied 90 rounds of ammnnition. Many of tl+ rifle corps have not 'been -furnished with arms, ands haVe therefore had no. opport un it y o f pr a ctisi ng w it h the Enfield "rifle, but the majority of those who labeuramar this disadvantage have requested to.have,sorne rifles sent at once, so that those among them reported to be good shots may have an-opportunity of practising, and !entet ing into the competition with other corps. ; The Queen's prize and gold medal will be shot ror by the twenty winners of the Enfield rifle and the. net best .20 shots, and will be exclusively confined to volunteers, the Whitworth rifle only being, used, 'the ranges! being 800, 900, and 1,000 yards. The gold medal will be given to the one who is 'the best shot at each and all of these ranges.- - Each competitor will fire ten shots at each of the ranges, and the prize will be adjudged according to the aggregate number of points made. For all comers, of all nations; there will be five:prizes, one of £2O, £3O, ' £4O, and £5O, and the Prince Consort's - of £lOO. The four smaller prizes will be distributed among the best shots at the range of 200, 300, .500,'and 600 yards. The - weight of the rifles in this contest is, therefore, limited to ,10. pounds, and hair triggers, and magnifying sights are prohibited. No artifieial'rest will be allowed: The shooting at • the shorter range must be fro m t h e shoulder, and at the remaining • five' ranges any position may be adopted. The prize of the Duke of Cambridge will . be shot for with breech-loading rifles alone, at 800, 900, and 1,000 yards. Some additional prizes have been placed at the disposal of the association within the last .few days, among others one offered by the ladies of Northamptonshire, another by Mr. !Crock ford, of the Volunteer Club, and a third by the Honourable Artillery Company. The funds of the association have also been considerably augmented-, since the - time of holding the last meeting; and the appeal made-by Lord Eleho on behalf of the council, to the commanding officers and captains of voluntecirs; that they should invite the members of their respective corps to Subscribe the small sum of ono shilling per man per year, has met with very general success.

THE RUBBERY AT THE INLAND REVENUE OFFICE. The public Will remember that, on the 16th of Jtuniary last, a very daring robbery was committed at the Inland Revenue-office, Gresham HOuie, Old Broad-street, and that au iron safe, weighing nearly . two hundred weight, and which contained over a hundred sovereigns, checks, and bonds, the pro perty Of the . Government, was taken away. Two men named Edgar . and Moore, were subsequently tried at the Central Criminal Court for.the offence, and they were convicted, and are now under sentence in Holloway Prison. It was proved that the safe and its contents were taken away from Old Broad-stieet in a cab,, and conveyed to . a place called Montague Mews,. where it was broken open and the money abstracted. No trace of the safe could be - discovered, although the most diligent inquiry was made; but a feri ago Inspector Hamilton, one of the city detective police, received information which led to its discovery iu a very singular manner.. Having reason to believe. that it had been thrown into the Surrey Canal, Mr. Hamilton, accompanied by Brett and Legge, tivo other City detectives,..weat to the spot indicated, near the bridgeon the Kent road, and they employed persons to drag the, canal, aril after some time the drags caught on• something exceedingly heavy, which they had no doubt. was the safe, . hut it was so embedded in the mud' that at this time it was impossible to move_ ;a', crowd had collecied, the officers con sidered it prudent to desist from further c:peratious at that., time, but they of course: took every -pre caution to have the place watched.' On the following morning early they again .proceeded to the spot, and this time -their exertions were successful, and the long .:missing iron.. safe was. brought once more to daylight; aftbr being so many months buried in,the canal, which at this spot is twelve feet deep. The safe, of course, was nearly filled wtth mud; but upon it being examined it was found to contain the whole of the bonds and Other papers that were,in it when,it was abstracted from the Board of Inland Revenue, and those documents have since been handed over to. the proper authorities. TREMENDOUS FIRE NEAR HULL-X 25,000 DAMAGES. On. Friday morning one of the, largest fires that have occurred in Beverley for very many years past took place on the premises of Messrs.' Croskill's; trustees, on the Burlington side of , the North,Eastern Railway station, destroying buildings and property to the value of nearly £25,000. As some of our readers may be aware, NeSsrs. Oreskill are very extensive implement . manufacturers, and their premises cover an area of about four acres, and upwards of 300 men are employed in the various departments. The fire appears to have origi nated in the wised department--a building which is about 60 feet wide, and between 120 and 130 feet in length. The roof fell in with a fearful crash. The roof of the wheelwrights' shed—a building 190 feet long—was cut off flue the other portion, and this stopped . further progress iu that direction. A similar precaution was also taken N‘ith regard to a large saw mill at the other extremity of the premises. The fire, after completely " gutting" the wheel department, spread to the flaw mill, . which it reached 'soon after four o'clock. In the 'mill were nearly 300 quarters of corn; and ,not a single-grain could be , 'removed. ' About 100 sacks of flour were secured, although a larger quantity was ,destroyed. There was a great scarcity of water, and it was not until after ten o'clock that the flames were got anything like under control. The wheel department, the wheel shed, and the flour mill are one heap of ruins, and,the whale of' the very valuable machinery which they contained has been hopelessly destroyed. , The total Cost of the damages is estimated at, £25,000, but we understand the trustees'arelitstwed in two Yorkshire offices.. How the fire originated is at present a mystery. John Spencer, alias John Benedict Spencer, described by the police as a Roman Catholic priest at •Liverpool, but himself denying that he was so, and lately keeping a school at Haclcn4,las been committed for trial, at the Worship-street .

Some students were painting in the National Gallery, in the room in which hangs the new Giulio Romano, the' poetic and glowing " Infancy of Jupiter." A veteran artist, snore celebrated for his feats. as . a restorer than for original creation, or original inter pretation of nature, entered the room. "Do you know this Giulio Romano ?" asked an. admiring student. " Know it! why, out of every hundred touches in that pic ture ninety-nine are mine." A contributor to the Man chester Art Treasures Exhibition dine in one day when the managers had before them an anonymotis medireval picture, the property of an august personage,'which they. had named after a Flemish master of the second class, little known in this country. "That's not'by — 7 ," said he. "Oh yes : it's in his style ;it must be hisi" " I say it's not." " Why not ?" " Well, I saw it being painted After pause—" You are not going to print all that stuff in the catalogue ?" " Oh! considering whose property it is, we cannot do otherwise." GREAT FRENCR CATTLE Snow.—A letter, from Paris describes the cattle show which_ has been opened to the public. The collection of live stock from the 8 de partments of !ranee is the most complete that was ever seen. English farmers and graziers who managed to run Over fo Paris will have a rich treat. The distinguishiact feature of the present exhibition is the admission, to use the language of the programme; :of the " chevaline, asinine, 'et muline" species, as well as the " bovine, ovine, and porcine." The horse show is to my fancy the most interesting _part of the exhibition. Without wishing for a - moment to question the infinite superiority of the English' hunter and race horie, whielioEtenelinienare the first -to acknowledge, , I may safely say that the most fastidious judge of horse ,flesh that ever - galloped in Leicesteriliire, may now see in the .Champs Elysees types of hacks, unlike anything commonly "seen in England which would delight his eye.. The interior of the building .(the ground floor of it at least) is entirely devoted to the bovine species. The garden, fountains, and. miniature lake 'which, were made. for the flower show, remain undistUrbed, but around them are three double rows. of stalls, all Occupied by bulls, cows, and calves, the total number of which can not be less than 1,000.
