political objections which would exist in England against
receiving an ecclesiastic of rank and influenci, Ib: licw
this was understood and admitted by the Pope ; but. so far
has he been from remembering it, that he has sent into
England a cardinal, who is also Archbishop of Wf-t-
-minster, and will not have the restraint of the responsibi-.
lily arising from a diplomatic position, while there will 1,4
all the inconvenience of his ecclesiastical rank, awl besides,:
the dislike of his English title. Can it be said that this
showed any consideration towards the English goverameat,
or any regard for English feelings ? and, therefore, I again
ask how can we place confidence in the papal govern-
ment ?

to imagine how shrewd men of business here and elsewhere
could be so taken in, but it is partly to he accounted for
by the intense competition in the corn trade. It shows,
however, the utter valueless character of bills of lading'

THREATENED INVASION OF KENSINGTON-GARDENS
TIT Ellr,woes N,—lout night a large and influential meet-
ing of the reaidents of Bayswater, Kensington, Notting-hill,
and the vicinity of Kensington-gardens, was held, at the
Prince Albert Tavern, Notting-hill, to consider the pie.'
priety of presenting a petition to the Queen against the in-
tended formation of a public ride in Kensington-gardens.
Amongst those who signed the requisition calling the meet-
. fug were the two churchwarden* of the fairish of Kensin,t-
ton, and nearly all the respectable inhabitants of the dee-
, triet. Mr. Boyle, barrister, preside!, and said the questi
they had met to consider was one which did not atii.et the
inhabitants of Kensington alone, but one which materially
concerned the health, recreation, and comfort of the whole
metropolis, it was proposed to convert a portion of Kensing-
ton-gardens into a drive, and thereby to encourage a con-
course of people, not only equestrians hut co:ter:wingers,
dealers in horse flesh, and others, noisy characters which
would completely destroy the privacy and seclusion which
the frequenters of the gardcns had for upwards of a century
enjoyed, such an assemblage would completely deprive
ladies, invalids, and children of the enjoyment of the gar-
dens, and would act as an exclusion of theta from the de-
lightful and healthful recreations which they had been in
the habit of enjoying. The proposed intrusion was wholly •
unnecessary, because at present there was a drive for eques-
trians between Rotten-row and the Serpentine, and if it
were necessary to have o inure extended drive, that could
Its easily obtained by making an additional one, at a very
trifling expense, in the northern part of Ilyde-park, whero
there was ample room without interfering with the con-
venience, comfort, or privileges of the people. Under th. so
circumstances it WWI deemed ads isable to present a petition
to her Majesty tin the subject, praying her Majesty to pre-
vent the intended intrusion.—Mr. Marini proposed the
first resolution, which was to the effect that the meeting
viewed with surprise anti alarm the intention of the Com-
missioners of Wood.: and Forests to make a drive in Ken-
sington-gardens, which had for upwards of a century
set apart fur the rtavestion of all classes of her Ma-
jesty's subjects, and particularly for ladies and children,—
Mr. llerapath seconded the resolution, and, in doing so,
said that he considered that the proposed drive would be an
infringement, not only of the comforts of the public but a
violation of their privileges.—Mr. Hopper, in supporting
the resolution, said that he believed all that was necessary
for them to do was to represent the matter properly to her
Majesty, and he was sune front the regard which her Ma-
jesty had always paid to the comfort and representations or.
-her subjects, and in particular any representations of het'
subjects coining from the humbler classes of them, she
would immediately give orders to prevent the pmpos. d in-
trusion. The resolution was carried unanimously.—Mr.
Bennett and Mr. Thornton hunt subsequently addressed
the meeting, and a petition to her Majesty, embodying the
sentiment of the resolution, was adopted.
BATTY'S 111 P PODROM E AT KENSINGTON. The
hippodrome, which is being built on a out of hand at the
corner of the Victoria mad, for Mr. Batty, is making rapid
progress. It is an oval, called 300 feet by 400 feet (it loolui
scarcely so large), and will accommodate 14,0041 persons.
The seats, of which there are six or seven ranges all round,
are roofed over. The enclosed area is open to the sky.
The entrance for the horses is at the south end, and over
this is the gallery tun music. Bare and white are the co-
lours used Mr decoration. Externally, the sides us well as
the roof of the building being slated, the appearance is
not very preposse,eing. The public entrance is by a emu-
pied archway of three openings, formed in the Kensington-
road, which has in the frieze MOM' Slll,lll Roman flaunt on
horsehack, and is otherwise adorned with flying horses.—

SUICIDE OF THE DUTCH COMMISSIONER FOR THE
EXlMlTlON.—Yesterday Mr. Baker held an inquest at
No. 21, Fiusbury-square, on view of the body of Mr. F. U.
Camp, aged 21, a line young man, and of wealthy con-
nexions in the Netherlands, who was principal commis-
sinter from Hulland, appointed to attend to the arrange-
ment of the contribution, from that country to the Great
Exhibition, and who committed suicide under the following
melancholy circumstances. John Ramsay, servant to Ma-
dame Julia, landlady of the house, said that the deceased
about a month ago engaged apartments. lle came with
several other gentlemen. When at home he Wag employed
the most of his time in writing, no he was in the habit of
receiving numerous letters. He frequently rose at 3 o'clock
in the morning. He generally left at o'clock to go to
Hyde Park, and returned at 7 or 8 o'clock at night, when
he had his dialler. Ile usually dined alone in the paTIOUV,
as it was his wish. He was very reserved in hi, man-
ner, and latterly witness had observed him to be
low and desponding. Witnoss had rewarked to the
servant that he thought demised would never live
to go through with his duties at the Exhibition,
as he appeared to have so much anxiety on his mind. Ma-
dame Julia tried to cheer him up, as slid also is gentleman
of the name of Muuchet, who was a lodger. List Saturday
night, deceased returned from Hyde-park at seven o'clock.
lie appeared extremely desponding. Ile dined with Ma-
dame Julia and Mr. Mous:het About ten o'clock the fol-
lowing morning witness went to his bedroom with a cup of
strong tea. Ile kaockcd repeatedly, but could obtain nn
answer. The door was looked. Madame Julia and Mr.
Muuchet, upon hearing him call so frequently, came to his
assistance. A key was obtained, with which Mr. Muuchet
opened the door. Deceased was then found suspended by a
piece of cord from the bedpost, and life was extinct. Wit-
ness instantly went for a surgeon. From the evidence of
gentlemen acquainted with deceased's affairs it npneared
that the duties of his office were overwhelming him, and he
moreover expected to be shortly superseded in his commis-
sion. His accounts were properly kept, and corresponded
with the state in which his funds were found. The jury re-
turned a verdict of " Temporary insanity."
SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A SOLICITOR.—On the
2ith inst., the 'magistrates of Cardiff (the Mayor, Mr. Bird,
and Mr. C. Vatchell) were engaged in investigating a
charge of perjury, preferred against Mr. J. Griffin Mill-
