THE ADDRESS TO THE QUEEN.

In the Address to Her Majesty, which is gene-
rally only an echo of the speech from the throne, the fo1•
lowing paragraphs have this year been inserted, to mark the
sympathy of parliament in the great loss which her Majesty
has just sustained :
"To take this first opportunity of offering to her Majesty
our sincere condolence on the 'Minting dispensation of Pro-
vidence with which her Majesty and this nation have bees
visited is the death of his Royal Highness the Prime
Consort.

"To &mare her Majesty of, our heartfelt participation is
the universal feeling of sympathy with her Majesty under
this calamitous bereavenfe•t, sad in the deep sense eater-
tained by all classes of her Majesty's subject' of the irre.
parable loss which the country has sustained in • Prince
whose tender attachment to her Majesty, whose eminent
virtue., and whom high attainments, unceasingly devoted
to the interests of this country, won for him general love
and admiration, and will cause his name to be bald in
grateful and affectionate remembrance.
" To assure her Majesty that it is our earnest prayer that
her Majesty's health, in which her faithful people take so
lively an interest, will not be impaired by overwhelming
grief, and that this kingdom will long continue to enjoy the
blessings of a reign with whirl:tit/ happiness and welfare are
so intimately associated."

EARL BU .L TO LORD LTONB.

Foreign-office, Nov. 22
My Lord,—l have received your despatch of the 4th inst.,
reporting the substance of a couversation you bad had with
Mr. Seward relative to the reception of the privateers and
vessels of the so-styled Confederate States in foreign ports,
and I have to state to you that it appears from that
despatch that Mr. Seward never chooses to understand the
position of her Majesty's government, Her Majesty Las
declared entire neutrality in the unhappy contest now car-
ried on in We United States. Her Majesty admit, the ships
of war and privateers of the United State. to British porta,
there to remain to victual and take in coals. If her Ma-
jesty were to refuse similar facilities to the vessels of war and
privateers of the so-styled Confederate State., her Ma-
jesty would be at once declaring herself a party to the war.
If Mr. Seward is desirous that the ships of war of the Con-
federate States should not be allowed to stay more than
twenty-four hours in a British port, be should declare it in
plain terms. In any case her Majesty's government are de-
termined to treat the ships of war and jrivateers of the so-
styled Confederate States in the same manner as the ships
at war sad privateers ,of the United States.—l am, ha
(Signed) Roseau.
On the last day of November Messrs. Yancey,
Rost, and Mann, according to instructions from the
President of the Confederate States, again urge
upon her Majesty's government the ineffective na-
ture of the blockade, and the paramount interests
affected by the blockade. To this appeal the fol-
lowing is the brief reply :
TAIL RUSSELL TO NUM& TANCET, LOST, AID MAIM.
Foreign-offles, Dec. 7.
Lord Russell presents his compliments to Mr. Yancey,
Mr. Most, and Mr. Mann. He has had the honour to receive
their letters and inclosures of the 27th and 30th of Novem-
ber ; but in the present state of affairs he must decline to
stater into any official communication with them.

A few Hues from Earl Russell on the subject of
letters of marque aro full of significance :
EARL RUSSELL TO LORD LYONS.

Foreign-alias, Dec. 20.
My Lord,—You may speak to Mr. Seward on the subject
of letter of marque. Should Great Britain and the United
States ever unhappily be at war against each other, her
Majesty will be ready to relinquish her prerogative, and
abolish peivateeriog as between the two nations, provided
the President would be reedy to rake a similar engagement

The escapade of an ignorant acting muter, who
took a prize schooner into New York with the
British flag flying under the American, was, it
appears, very promptly disavowed by the superior
naval authorities of the United States, and by Corn-
, modore Paulding, in command of the Federal
squadron, in a manner that obtained the askrow-
lodgments of Lord Lyons, and of the British naval
officer on the station.

On the 72nd of last November Earl Russell had
written a despatch to Lord Lyons, relative to the
arbitrary arrests of certain British subjects. The

DECLARATIONS FOR OFFICES ABOLITION.

Mr. HADFIELD moved that the house should resolve
itself into a committee to enable him to move for leave to
bring in a bill to render it unnecessary to make and sulecribe
certaio declarations as a quielifikatiou for offices and em-
ployments.
Mr. NEW DFAIATE observed that the bill having fro-
unently before bees introduced. and upon every one ssion re

ber would be trespassing upon the patience of the house if
he persevered with it wow. He knew that the hon. gentle-

PUNISHMENT OF WHIPPING.

more speedy trial and punishment of juvenile offenders an
relates to the whipping of offenders.
fir G. GREY did not object to the introduction of the
bill, but he certainly objected to the principle of ►bolishing
the punishment of whipping in all ogees. He thought that
what occurred at Chatham lot year showed the seernesity
of not altogether dimpensing with that punishment.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

Perhaps the most interesting facts connected with
the great Exhibiton are now in daily course of ac-
complishment—we mean the successive influxes of
visitors from the country, who, thanks to the rail.
ways, are able to enter the metropolis in whole
armies, see the greatest and must instructive
sight in the world during the day, and return to
their homes a hundred miles away at night or the
' next morning. Yesterday the Great Western again
I sent up its 4,000 or 5,000, and the Midland between
1,000 and 2,000, but it is to be noted with regret
that as yet we have had no happy party of excur-
lsionists from the cotton districts. Surely something
might be done by the northern millionaires to
enable at least some of the factory operatives to see
the world's show.

The highest temperature during the day, as
i registered by Messrs. Negretti and Zambra's patent
thermometers, was :—ln the nave, 70.1 deg. ; in the

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

That charming artist Mdlle. Adelina Patti has
added to the kit of her imeeemea by her pmformanee, for
the tint time last night, of Dinorah, in Ifeyerbeeea opeea
of that name.

Since her first appearanoe here last seam Male. Patti
has proceeded from one success to another ; each new eary
oonfirmitig the hold which she has taken of the London
public, and justifying the eulogiums with which she wee
originally greeted.
As Amine in La 3011 nbula, Ruins ii. If Barbit,re,
Zerlina in Don Gioecani, besides her various other imper-
sonations, her youthful gnus, genial simplicity, and vocal
freshness ware felt to be peculiarly charming and attractive.
Much interest, therefore, was attached to bee appearance is
the part of Dinorah, which preents (musieally) some strong
points of contrast to most of those which she bad previously
swayed.
Although possessing much of the florid vocalisation de•
rived from his saber Rossini= predilection, Meyerbeer's
matured style does not permit those departures from the
text which, in the modern Italian school, are not only per-
missible, but occasionally even regulate
It is seldom that Meyerbeer's music admits of an inter-
polated cadenza, or of the spontaneous roulades sad fiori-
gun on which so many gegen chiefly depend for their effects.
Although Meyerbeer's music is not so severe a test for the
dramatic singer as that of Mozart or Beethoven, it is, how•
ever, a much higher ordeal than most of the mode of the
modern Italian school ; and the singer who succeeds in it
most take high rank es a dramatic vocalist.
Mdlle. Patti's success last night in Dinorah wu sa me-
plate as it was deserved. Her reception by a crowded and
brilliant audience wet enthusiastic throughout.

It is impossible to imagine a more charming represesta-
Vve of the Breton peasant girl ; nor indeed has the part of
Dinorah ever been more perfectly rendered, either in a
dramatic or a musical point of view. Mdlle. Patti's per-
formance was a triumph of histrionic and vocal excellence.
Her singing was throughout characterised not only by bril-
liant execution and perfect intonation, but also by that
sympathetic feeling which mere mechanical excellence does
not always include.
The shadow song was exquisitely sung and acted, and the
last movement repeated in answer to • general enema In
the bell trio alvo, and the highly dramatic trio which closes
the wood act, lifdlle. Patti displayed all the qualities of •
consummate dramatic singer.

I The other characters in the opera were cast as before;
M. Faure being the Hoel, Signor Gardoni the Corentino
liesdanteeDidiia and /Ludendorff the goatherds, end Signor;
Tagliaffoo and Norf./ herald/ filling the small parts of a hunter
and a reaper. _ .

DineraA, as them given, must rank as one of the most
perfect performances in the repertoire of the Royal Italian
Opera.

FINE ARTS.

SIVIETV OF PAINTERS IN WATER•OOLOUI39.

The members of the old Society of Water-colour
!Widen finding themselves with their fine new spacious
spiry lying idle through the months of the dead season, '
very wisely determined to make the experiment of a
water exhibition of sketches and studies. This very
ietereeting collection was to-day opened to the public.
le speaking recently of the winter exhibition which
lims for some yawl past been arranged by some of
the principal dealers in modern pictures, we alluded to the
want of some effort on the part of the artists themselves to-
weeds supporting an exhibition at this time of the year. The
Water-colour Society seem to have perceived this, and with
a nand judgment of the public taste they have made their
exhibition so far distinct from the grand display of the art
i• the season, es to restrict it almost entirely to
Wadies and drawings. These, though showing
the finished touch of the master with a vividnew
and life often lost in more elaborate work, differ
from the careful productions of the studio—they have a
sham of their own, akin to the pleasure of seeing our friends
ia the ease and tuyhge of home and the fireside. In this
way one seems to get on more familiar terms with the
swaine feeling of the artist ; we see his choice and how he
reeds usture's great book. In the highly wrought picture
it is constantly observable that an artist is not so much him-
self ; he paints in the stilts and gets ambitious over rich
eiskaaring, dreaming of the great sensation his work is to pro-
due:, rather than painting Inc the love of the thing. Hence
the delightful sensibility that marks so many of these
studies and sketches, and the stamp of truth, combined, as
it is sure to be, render an exhibition of this kind particu-
larly pleasing and refreshing, sod we commend the good
taste of the society which has suggested such a collection
of the choice first thoughts and chosen spoils that enrich
the private portfolios of the water-colour painters.

praying also, under the recent Joint Stock Companies Act,
the appointment of an official liquidator. The question was
mooted whether the official liquidator ought to be appointed
upon the application of the petitioners only, without giving
other parties interested an opportunity of objecting to the
person reopesed.
Mr. Hetheriogton and Mr. Roxburgh were in the case.
The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that he ought not to
make an absolute appointment which should bind other
shareholders not before the court from objecting to the
person appointed. The order would go for the appointment
of the gentleman named, subject to the right of any other
shareholder to object to him as not a fit person to be ap-
pointed.

ITALY.

TURIN, SATURDAY Enron.
Tbe debate in the Chamber of Deputies upon the
'ministerial policy was continued to-day.
Signor Boggio believed that the difficulties of the
situation with regard to foreign policy dated from
the resolution of the Chamber, called forth by
Count Cavour, declaring Rome the capital of the
kingdom. This resolution had excited impatience,
and Lad mat difficulties in theway of the succeeding
ministries. The speaker concluded by asking a
vote which should by agreement put an end to party
differences, the majority desiring the reconstruction
of the present ministry upon a parliamentary basis.
Deputies Demnetis and De Cesare spoke against
the ministry. The latter having declared that
Itiditm unity had been eoraproraieed-in 1059, under
Rattazzi's ministry ; the Marquis Pepoli, in a
speech which was loudly cheered, maintained the
falsity of this accusation.
The Discamione of to-day publishes twenty-two
telegrams, addressed by Minister Rattazzi to the
different political authorities between May 30 and
July 6 last, having for object to prevent volunteer
enlistments, and to oppose any insurrectionary
attempts of the Cisuibildiass.

situation, and says :
The great Western Powers have common'interesta in the
East, which ought to unite and not to divide them. It is
evident that if one of the powers desired to obtain a pre-
ponderance to the prejudice of the other, the equilibrium of
their relations would be disturbed, and a shock be given to
the principle* on which their good understanding rests.

stated that at about seven o'clock he was walking from
Railway-street to Church-row, when be took out his puree,
intending to ester • shop to make a purchase. A woman,
who had previously addressed a filthy observation to
him, and bad gone away, came up to him at this
moment, snatched the parse out of 1 his hand, and
ran away down Church-row. He immediately followed
her, calling out " Stop thief!" The prisoner Hall then met
bins and stopped I. front of him, at the IMO time giving
hire a push. He turned rotted, intending to go back, when

with hie stick, the butt end of which wee loaded with lead.

Both prisoners were committed for trial, end Alderman
Hale remarked that whenever • daring robbery of this na.

Bavaria and Wurtemberg to come to an understanding as
to a common reply. Baron de Stockhausen, the Hanoverian
minister at Vienna, went for that purpose to Stuttgardt.
He returned last week to Vienna, and had a long conference

ALARMING RAILWAY
_COLLISION NEAR

WARRINGTON.

Ono of the most alarming railway collisions that
has recently taken plane occurred yesterday afternoon on
the London and North-Western Railway, between Man-
chester and LiverpooL The express train, which leavcs
Victoria Station, Manchester. at 2.415. m., proceeded ',alter-
day, as usual, with pinworm
.for Liverpool, Chester, he.,
taking up at °rebel Lee a carnage of the Great Northern
Railway Company, which was placed next to the engine.
Following that were • guard's van, seven carriages, and a
van also at the rear of the train. Oa its arrival at
Newton Junction the carriages for Warrington and Chester
were detached, sod the train proceeded on its way. Arriving
near the Eidson waggon works, the driver observed an en-
gine shunting somas to the main line some empty waggons,
and the shunting engine became almost stationary. The
intervene m distance at this time was not more than fifty
yards, and the express. was dashing on at the rate of thirty
miles an hour. The driver did all in his power to stop the
train, but without effect, and it came into fearful contact
with the shunting engine. The express engine leaped up,
and swaying over fell among some waggons with which the
sidings were filled. The driver of the express stock to the
engine, and miraculously escaped, only • few of his ribs being
bruised and be being hurt shills about the head ; the stoker
was also unhurt, he having jumped off, receiving n Ahiug more
than &severe shaking from rolling over. The most alarming
and melancholy consequences to the passengers were antici- '
paled. for there were the Great Northern carriage, the
guard's van, and another ' broken to piece' ; the
first one being quite • wreck. From this one a lady was
taken out along with others, and upon being examined it
was found that a few slight bruises only were inflicted upon
the bitter ; but the lady was severely wounded about the
head and chest: She was immediately placed under the
care of • medical gentleman, and is going on favourably.
The rest of the passengers, fortunately, have received little
I or no injury as far as we could learn, and shortly after-
wards proceeded oei their way. Upon the accident be-
coming known, several hundred men from the waggon works
were in attendance, and every possible effort, was made for
clearing the line, which was accomplished in the mums of a
couple of hours. The remarkable amps of the passengers
is in some measure accounted for by the train being a light
one, owing to another train for the accommodation of
gentlemen attending Manchester on Tuesdagniai. Thurs-
days being despatched at 2.15 p.m. The to the
stock has been estimated at between 4,000/. 5,0001.,
both engines having been smashed.
