OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

(THIS DAY.)

The Times believes that up to this =num
neither minister, nor supporter, nor independent member,
out of Lord Derby's party, has listened to his overtures.
The new government, therefore, will probably be purely
conservative. Though this is a gre►t disappointment to
many there Is no help for ft if the honour of our statesmen
was to be saved. It would, moreover, be a real absurdity
for the conservatives to discard their own followers
and go out in quest o new comers who alter all would
not bring with them a single vote.
The Herold is able to state that the rumen of Lord
Derby's efforts is already assured. Of course, with his
lordship's well-known desire to establish a government on
a broad and popelar bans, it is impossible that the minis-
terial arrangement can be conelnded with the MO with
which an administration composed of his lordship's imme-
diate suppor tars could be submitted to her Majesty. But
the delay will not be long ; and we hope, in the course of
a few hours, to give the names of the noblemen and gen-
tlemen who will be associated with the noble lord in the
new ministry. The Herald again *Mores the epithets of
liberal and conservative, and insists on dividing political
parties henceforth into oonstitutionalists and democrats.
If England does not love coalitions, neither, the Daily
News mast be permitted to add, does she love " third
parties." England does not love, and ell not
tolerate the third party, which consi t 3 of pro-
faning liberals,who,while they have not the moral courage
of deserters, would fain consider themselves indispensa-
ble at once to the party tkey have abandoned, and to
the party they are afraid openly to join. A government
made out of such a party would never survive the ordeal
of a session, and the Daily News therefore cordially
moors w:th its tor/ contemporaries in insisting on the
positive duty of the Adnllamites to transfer their
allegiance for good and all to Lord Derby and son.
The Daily News begs the liberal seceders not to feel
discouraged at the thought of leasing the honest liberal•
in a hopeless minority. We hold with Mr. Gladstone
that the honour of public men and of parliament is
worth more than the momentei/ success of any poi ;
and as to the hopelessness of this poor abandoned radical
minority, all we care to say for it now is, that it can well
afford to wait. The future belongs to it—a long future,
and u sure as the rising o: to-morrow's sun.
The Telegraph expects that the new cabinet will pro-
bably be the cabinet of 1859, plus Lord Cranborne, and
suede that Mr. Lowe has only agreed to join it upon the
condition that Lord Clarendon shall consent—end this he
will not do—to become the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
According to the Star,Mr. Lowe has had a long interview
with Mr. Disraeli, but nothing seems to have come of it
and it may be taken for granted that the " Cave" wall not
have any representative in the new cabinet.

ALGIERS, MARCH 29.

Si-Ilainza has offered to make his submission
to France on condition that he should be allowed
to hold an independent position. This proposal
was declared to be inadmissible by the Imperial
Government, which, says the Afonifeur del' Algerie,
will never cede any portion of the territory con-
quered in Africa. Colonel Colomb, who left fiery'
vile on the 15th inst., has defeated a body of 1,500
insurgents after a severe engagement. Three
columns are now pursuing the scattered remnants
of the insurgent force. The French bad 22 killed
and 41 wounded.

HER MAJESTY AND NIL PEABODY'S crrr.

Referring to the autograph letter addressed by her Ma-
jesty to Mr. Peabody on his return for a while to America,
the Times remarks that it will be read by all Englishmen
.

-
with feelings of the greatest satisfaction. Mr. Peabody,
feeling himself unable to accept either of a baronetcy or of
the Grand Cross of the Bath, her Majesty has been obliged
to confine herself to this personal expression of her feelings,
and in order to mark them the more distinctly and per-
manently she also asks Mr. Peabody to accept • miniature
portrait of herself, which she will have painted for him.
There never was • more appropriate occasion for such an
expression of Royal gratitude, nor could there well be
an instance in which such an act on the part of
the Sovereign would be more welcome to the feelings
of her people. Even apart from the considerations
of gratitude which the Queen so gracefully expresses,
the act of Mr. Peabody would not have been un-
worthy of such • Royal recognition. Her Majesty
justly characterises his two successive donation,'
es acts of " more than princely munificence."
In such a signal mark of gratitude from the Queen, Mr.
Peabody has, the Tiesesthinks, received a far higher honour
than could have been conveyed by any mere title. It is
seldom that a Sovereign thus breaks through the strict
rules of court etiquette, and to be the subject of so marked
en expression of royal favour is a distinction that must be
reserved for the very few. The present occasion, however,
was amply worthy of such an exceptional course, and in
this graceful act of condescension her Majesty has done
equal honour toher sense of duty as &Queen and to her feelings
as • woman. It enchanoes at once the generosity of Mr.
Peabody, and the significance of her Majesty's acknowledg-
ments, that this great benefit has been conferred on ns and
this acknowledgment received by one who is not •
citizen of this country—by a man who is with us but not
of u. It is to an American that we are indebted for the
greatest boon ever given to the poor of London, and it is to
a citizen of the United States that the Queen has thought
it right to address this personal expression of gratitude.
The Times cannot but believe that such an occurrence will
have no little influence in augmenting the good feeling
which should prevail between the two countries.

AURIRLI AND PRUSSIA.

The Prussian government, says the Herald, is now
avowedly preparing for war. It seems to have been Count
von Bismarak's object to force Austria into the commence-
ment of the contest, or at least to drive her into the adop-
tion of measures which he could interpret as intended as
menaces to Prussia, and which might furnish him with a
pretext for taking the offensive. He has got his pretext
now. Threatened by Austria, Prussia mart now, he says,
seek guarantees for her security, and she seeks them first
by an appeal to the minor states for assistance, and then by
preparations to force Austria into the concession of
everything that Prussia thinks needful for her interest.
But Austria and Praia will be left to settle the question
themselves, and the only hope of peace that remains to us
is the old one, that Austria will decide at the last moment
to take some compensation for the cession of the Duchies,
indeed of risking absolute ruin in the endeavour to secure
them for the Prince of Augustenburg. The risks of war
are for Austria so enormous that her government, if it
listens to the dictates of prudence and consult, the true
Merest, of the empire, will yield. It has not, however,
much time left for oonsideratkin.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDINT.)
PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.

Rapidly indeed has the opinion I hinted on
Saturday last, and confidently expressed on
Sunday, that the conference would never meet,
received official confirmation. This evening's
Monikur announces the receipt in Paris of

telegraphic despatches from England and Russia,
stating that in their opinion the " reserves"
&dared by Austria render the projected con-
ference useless. The French o;. cial organ sinks
the fact, mentioned by telegraph this evening
from London, that the cabinet of the Tuileries had
intimated a similar opinion to the English govern-
ment. I suppose this suppression was thought
convenient on account of the talk in yesterday's
Moniteer about further "negotiations" and a
" postponement," which it is now evident meant
nothing. The Duke de Gramont, who left Paris
for Vienna on Sunday evening, and was said by
the Patrie to be charged to conduct the fresh " ne-
gotiations," can evidently have nothing to say but
that France is very sorry—unless, indeed, a sup-
posable case, he should be the bearer of an ulti-
matum. I incline to think, however, that France
will not cut into the fray till somewhat later, when
the other parties shall haveshed a good deal of blood.
There is a dead set against Austria made by all
the French government prints, and they are all
instructed to draw the moral—to lay a foundation
for which was the only real motive for the " initia-
tive" taken by France in asking for the impossible
conference—that, oome what may, the Emperor
Napoleon has clean hands, and did his utmost to
preserve the peace of Europe.
The above decisive and disastrous news, though
suspected, was not fully known at the Bourse,
where, however, a further decline took place fol-
lowing upon the heavy falls of Friday, Saturday,
and Monday. Rente fell 10c. for cash and 227ie.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6.

Tin early part of a session is a trying time for
the House of Lords. The bills to which the hot
debates of the Commons have given a public in-
terest have not come up, and it is difficult to in-
vest the meetings of the Peers with an air of
business. If Lord CLLBENDON is in his place, a
question of studious vagueness judiciously put
will sometimes go a long way ; but when you have
struck off the topics marked dangerous, there are few
foreign subjects on which an interesting debate may
be got up, and you can only inquire once in a session
how the Nestorian Christians in Turkey are getting
on, or of which of his father's wives the Khan of
BOKHARA is the son. Under these circumstances
the working Peers—the retired judges and ex-
chancellors, who nine nights out of ten repre-

. sent the House of Lords-have much to do to
■ vindicate the legislative character of that
august estate of the realm and keep it from
sinking to the rank of a mere revising chamber.
It is only just to those learned persona to admit
that their industry is untiring. To them belongs
all the honour of the Sunday Trading Bill, which,
introduced by one of their number, received more
amendments, and was the cause of more speeches
than any other measure of the session, until it
was at last fairly improved out of existence.
Another Bill, also due to their Lordships' initia-

HEALTH OF LONDON.

It appears from the return issued by authority
of the Registrar-General that in the week that ended on
Saturday, June '2, the births registered in London and
twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom were
4,390 ; the deaths registered, 3,314. The annual rate of
mortality was 23 per 1,000 persons living. In London the
births of 1.111 boys and 1,025 girls, in all 2,136 children,
were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks
of ten years 18.56-65 the average number, corrected for
increase of population, was 1,922. The deaths registered
in London during the week were 1,540. It was the
twenty-second week of the year ; and the average number
of deaths for that week was, with a correction for in-
crease of population, 1,195. The mortality is still very
high. It is in excess of the estimated amount by 345.
The annual rate of mortality last week was 26 per 1,000
in London, 27 in Edinburgh, and 24 in Dublin ; 26 in Bris-
tol, 26 in Birmingham, 41 in Liverpool, 33 in Manchester,
23 in Salford, 30 in Sheffield, 30 in Leeds, 15 in Bull, 26
I in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 34 in Glasgow.

LYCEUM.

Another version of the well-known story about
David Garrick, in which he is represented as disenchanting
a young lady who had fallen in love with him as Romeo on
the stage, by assuming drunkenness in private life, was
produced at this house on Monday night under the title of
Doctor Davy. This is an English version of • French pieoe
called Le Docteur Robin, which is not half so effective
or so long as Sullivan, on which Mr. Robertson's
David Garrick was founded. We believe it has
been successful in • German shape, but the
present version by Mr. James Albery, as far so it
goes, is an improvement on the original. Mr. Hermann
Vezin plays the principal character, Garrick, with his
usual gentlemanly taste and judgment, and succeeds in
enlisting the sympathies of that portion of the audience
who half fill this house one hour before the fashionable
arrivals.

FLORENCE, Jors 6.

Intelligence published here from Venice states
that great agitation prevails in that city
on account of the forced loan and the
refusal of the municipality to co-operate
in collecting it. Great numbers had deserted
the city in consequence of the new con_
scription ordered by the government. The
authorities are said to have made arrange-
ments for carrying away the funds and valuables
of the Basilica of St. Mark.

lost the match in single innings and forty t

unpropitious state of the weather ; it was, however, in

THE PRINCE OF WALES AT COLCHESTER.

At Colchester yesterday, after about an hoes
rehearsal of the usual series of cavalry movements,
the Prince of Wales called the officers to the frost
and expressed the pleasure which he had derived
from his visit, the 11th Masers being his father's
own regiment ; this circumstance caused him to feel
a special interest in the corps, and he should con-
tinue to cherish that feeling for it. His royal highness also
complimented the offieers on the precision and efficiency
with which the manoeuvres of the day had been executed.
The Prince and his suite then left the parade-ground, and
after a short interval were entertained, with 300 other
guests, at a dejetmer given by the Earl of Cardigan,Coloael
Frazer, and the officers of the 11th Hussars. To this eater-
tainment, which was served with much elegance, about 300
guests were bidden, the party comprising representatives of
the principal families of the town and neighbourhood. There
was a handsome display of plate, presented at various
times to the regiment, which dates from ink when it was
first known as " Honeywood's Horse." The bugle was also
exhibited which sounded the famous charge at Balaclava.
This trophy, if trophy it may be called, although r '-
mental heirloom would be the better phrase, was suspended
over the seat occupied by the Prince. The tables ware
gaily decorated with dowers, and presented a brilliant
ensemble. The Prince returned to town by a special train
at five p.m., his Royal Highness receiving a second ovation
on his way to the station. It may be interesting to recall
the fact that a somewhat similar visit was paid to Colches-
ter by the Prince's lamented father in April, 1856.

THE CONGRIM.

General PEEL—I wish to ask the Chancellor of the
Exchequer or the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs
whether it is true that the proposed congress has been
given up'
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I am sorry
to state that I must give an answer substantially in the
affirmative to the question of the right hon. and gallant
gentleman. The first communication made to the British
government was a telegraphic message received last night
from France, stating that in the opinion of the French go-
venunent the conference was at an end, in consequence
el the answer from Austria imposing conditions that were
regarded as impracticable. NI, e are now in possession of
the Austrian despatch upon the subject, and the sub-
stance of it is this:--,She required a definite as-
surance that all the powers which were to take
part in the projected conference should be ready
to renounce the pursuit of any special or particular interest
to the detriment of the general tranquillity ; and the
Austrian government went on further to explain that
sentiment by saying that in order that the work of piece
which the cabinet' had in view might be in a nand/ties to be

of France. All prospeat of the meeting of a confereue
must, therefore, I fear, be regarded as at au eud.

Telegraphic intelligence of yesterday's date, re-

Ibraila. The frontier guards resisted the order to
join the army at Bucharest, rose against their
officers, and demanded to be sent back to their

compel the obedience of the mutineers by means of
the regular troops, but, as they were supported by
the population, was finally obliged to yield.

Prince Gortschakoff is expected to arrive here on

next week. All the Powers, in their replies ac-
cepting the invitation to the Conference, have given
an assurance that they will take measures to pre-
vent the occurrence of any act of hostility until
a definitive decision has been arrived at by the
Conference. The Prussian reply accepts the
Conference without conditions. It simply adds,
that the imminence of war has been caused, not by
the Schleswig-Holstein question, Prussia never
having intended to go to war on that account, but
solely by the threatening armaments of Austria
and Saxony.
