PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS.

This committee, for Inquiring into the pretties-
Wily of opening the National Picture sad other galleries,
met again yesterday, Sir J. Trelawny in the chair.
Mr. Scharf, keeper of the Nations' Portrait Gallery, said
the gallery was opened to the war alarm upon procur-
ing • ticket at say of the A work=
would pt the ticket as • maims of mom le h. was
attired. There weak be no omemardose peaosr fir kin
to go through. It would be at mos to Us.
The effect of pe on picture', he thought, was not at a
boat ial. As far as the principle west, he was dac
to favour of opening picture galleries in the eveningifnes
to 10. The eulleetion of picture', however, at the gallery
with which he wee connected was far too smell to reward
• working man for the trouble of a visit. There were a er-
lain of persona who would go a great distance to see
• single picture if it had been gemerally talked about. If
the pictures from the British Museum were removed to
the gallery, it would do great good and become attractive.
The ipso° left vacant at the MUM= would give that In-
stitution additional room. If the collection of portraits it
the gallery were greatly augmented and well classed, so as to
make them interesting, he bad no doubt the gallery would
be very largely visited. The attendants at the National
Portrait Gallery up to the present time wee very small, sad
smelted of the educated, not the working class. The
Bomber of limiter' in a week was that ot last
Eastr—
over 463. He thought if portraits of living celebrities,
smelt as Lord Derby and Lord John Rowell, were
added tow gallery, it would prove highly attractive. When
gas was first introduced in the Sherry of the Atheowum it
nearly destroyed the books arranged above the gas lights.
The gm-fittings were removed, and the gas carried up above
the books, which did away with the ill effects, but the place
wee now so very uncomfortable from draughts as to prevent
many Fasces from sitting there. There is no accommoda-
tion for students for copying, the directors having deter-
mined not at the present moment to great the privilege of
copying. It was highly desirable that the National Portrait
Gallery should remain a separate institution, as in time it
would btoome of the greatest importance as affording a plan
of reference on subisem et costume and works of art.

ELOI4L BALL, COVENT 61411)1N.

This last addition to oar metropolitan crystal
palaces wea lam evanteg oonverted late a promenade con-
cert-roost--for which by the way it is admirably suited--to
of ord the public an opportunity of viewing the ball, with all
he dermrstises at gaa-lights, prima, and imitatioa dad-
aulture, as it appeared a• the memorable night of the grand
volunteer ball. The arbiaeratic half crown demanded as dm
admimicts fee, as kimetter el course, limited the attandasab
and promoted tire faeoaysdeaos of over-crowding. Bat

this was Mbar an advantage than otherwies, as it
sikeied ample rem to move about, and enabled those who
were tired to obtain seats in their turas, either upon the
steps of the several fights of stabs, or the somewhat
meagre supply of chairs provided in the gallery.
It is difficult to imagine anything more beautiful then the
vista which the glass sides and domed roof, supported by the
light and elegant caimans surmounted by one of the prettiest
of cornices ever designed, present from either end when hung
with festoons of roses (albeit they are of coloured caw), and
lighted up with plinths and moulding of gas jeta, bringing
out the features of the design in vivid distinctness; while
the vast size, the noble proportions of the room, sad its pe-
miler adaptability for sound, stamp it as the most suitable
locale for popular conoerts we have within our urban boun-
daries. Last night the musical part of the enartainment
was entirely instrumental, the performers being the bead of
the Oddstroars Guards, under their able leader, ler. Godfrey.
The selection included the greater part of Figaro, and
great deal of musks of a more modern but certainly not •
higher school of art. The whole, however, was charmingly
rendered, and graded general satisfaction to the audience,
which increased in numbers ea the evening grew later.

PRUSSIA AND RUSSIA.

The Cologne Gazette contains the following:
The attitude of Prussia and of Russia merits examination.
Some petsam have lately said that they were both drawing
towards Austria, and that those powers would unite in op-
posing French tendencies in Italy. The falsity of these
conjteturee is simply shown by the fact that the views of
those three powers on tho solution of the question of Central
Italy are completely different ; for, whilst Austria desires the
restoration of the Dukes and the restitution of Romagna to
the Pope, Prussia and Russia do not think that the restora-
tion is possible, do not wish for a kingdom of Etruria, and
draw 'mends the views at England, in assuring the annexa-
tion of the Duchies to Sardinia,

Alexander Dumu, who is now at Milan, informs
his friends that he has "gone to shake hands with
Garibaldi."

The Dolgaea of to-day contains a long article by
M. Michel Chevalier, extolling the Imperial Circular relative
to the future oornmereial polio, ot Francs, in the highest pos-
sible terms. He describes it as the fruit of long and patient
meditations, and as calculated to vastly improve the social
condition ot the masses in France, and to benefit all branches
of Industry. _ _

VENICE.

The animosity of the Italians to the Austrians has
reached such a pitch in Venice that things cannot
possibly long remain as they now are. The Vene-
tians almost openly bid defiance to the authorities,
" who appear to be completely paralysed." The
principal churches are almost empty, as young men
who are stationed at the doors menace those
persons who display an intention to enter the
sacred edifice!. The Venetians, who appear to
be indifferent to the possible consequences of
their refractoriness, publicly declare that they will
never cease to endeavour to shake off the Austrian
yoke, " which is so hateful to them that
they are willing to make any and every
sacrifice in order to obtain their liberation." The
polies at Venice are now armed with a weapon
like oar so-called " life-preserver," bst they are not
to use it except in self-defence. A Schiller Casino
has been established In the palace of Baron Wexler,
and it is visited by all those foreigners who have the
°Garage to ran the risk of being insulted by the
Venetian..

wins merchant, was charged eri.h stealing ten casks, en-
tabling SOU gallons of Brit trh manufstuured wines, the pro-
perty of kir. Francis Kuschke, a Oermen also.
The prosecutor depend that on the ilth of the present

British manufactured wire had been removed from his pre-

Mr. Elliott having elicited, in addition to the above, that
the trine had ben openly removed, observed that he did not
see the alighted grounds for giving the prided into custody
on a charge of felony, and therefore dismissed the complain.
He also directed that the wine should be give up to the
oomplainsni.

ROME.

According to advice. from Rome, the letter brought
to Paris by the Nuncio's secretary, not only renews
the protest contained in the speech of the Pope to the
French general, in language equally strong, bat de-
mands the recall of the French garrison. If the Holy
Bee has really taken this step, it is from its confidence
in the strength of the mercenaries enrolled in
Austria and Bavaria. Great agitation reigns
in the Marches, and the withdrawal of the French
troops would be a signal for an insurrection in the
capital.
It is said that a" solemn reconciliation" has taken
place between Cardinal Antonelli and the prelates
who had been in opposition to him. This unanimity
was the result of the deliberations of the sacred
college, which led to the decision against the Em-
peror's advice.
A letter in the Dames of to-day says :
" Cardinal Antonelli was desirous that the corps
of of oers should pay their compliments to the
Austrian ambassador on New Year's-day. In
his reply, the ambassador expressed his se-
defection at seeing the Pontifical soldiers
who, like those of Austria, had the noble mis-
sion of combatting for order ; he expressed a hope
that this common duty would ever unite the two
armies in the closest sympathy. In replying to the
Ambassador, General de Gregorio was not able to 1
prevent himself from energetically expressing his
regrets at the slight consideration which the
government showed for his grade, and for
the preference always given to the foreign
troops who are in the pay of the Holy See.
The Pontifical general-in-chief even added very
tartly, that it was nothing to wonder at if a good
organisation was impossible in an army governed in
the main by a cardinal."

A CONSPIRACY AOAINST THE TUSCAN
GOVERNMENT.

Letters from Florenoe report the existence at
Rome of a secret committee presided over by the
Marquis Bargagli, minister of the Grand Duke at
the Roman Court, which is attempting to put on
foot a force capable of making a diversion in
Tuscany in favour of the contre-revolution. There
is a talk of the assemblage of the forces
of this party in the en.irons of Perugia, with the
view of attempting a coup de main upon Arent°, a
town on the Tom frontier. The chief of this
enterprise would be Colonel Reuseslot, a French
refugee of 1830, who after having served with the
Bourbons of Parma and Lucca, entered the service
of the Grand Duke of Tuscany.

PARMA.

The Official Gasetta of Parma publishes a note,
in which the facts relative to the arrest of Father
Felletti, who ordered the abduction of the child
Mortara, are rectified and stated more precisely.
The arrest only took place at the demand of
the Mortara family [this hu been contra-
dicted in Rugland]--and the imprisonment was
not ordered until it was shown to be clearly
impossible for Father Felletti to clear him-
self from the charge of carrying off the child,
supported as it was by numerous witnesses. The
prisoner is treated with the greatest attention in the
I prisons of the palace where he is confined, while
waiting for his trial.

PUBLIC AVELINO IN' VANILLA.

During the late representation of a ballet in the
theatre of Treviso, a city in the Venetian provisoes, the coo-
women agility and ertisdo Wing displayed by one of the
performers were such as to even the most rapturous expree-
Moe of applause on the pen of the spectators, who had
gathered together in unusual numbers, on account of the
present Mein season of the year, as wall as of the aztretas

PRUSSIA.

The Elberfeld Gazette publishes the following
details of the speech delivered by his Royal Highness
the Prince Regent, on the Ist of January, to the
generals and superior officers of the army :
" The Priem) Regent dwelt emphatically on the
accord prevailing between himself and all the I
members of his ministry, especially the Minister of
Finance, respecting the re-organisation of the army.
He alluded at the lame time to the fact, that even
his father, King Frederick William 111., had intended
to introduce certain reforms in the military organisa-
tion, but that his intentions had met with obstacles in
00011* :ion with certain points now arresting the
attention of the government. The rapid progress
made (the Prince said) for several years past in the
branches of industry and agriculture readers certain
changes indispensable in the military organisation,
calculated to remove all impediments from the path
of industrial activity, and prevent the resources of
the treasury from suffering even for a short period.
Lastly, the Prince expressed the hope that the Diet
during its next erasion would second his and his
government's efforts for the realisation of those re-
forms the necessity of which should have been pre-
viously recognised."

GENERAL ULLOA AT NAPLES.

The Nazionele of Naples contains the following
letter from General Uncle, in reply to certain statements
which that journal had published respecting his conduct ;
" The rumours to which you have given publicity are false
and calumnious. Public opinion ought to respect honest
and sincere sentiments, especially thole of eitisins who have
suffered and fought for their country sad fur liberty, and
who have given proofs of disinterestedness and patriotism.
To my numerous friends in France, I wish to
state that I have never ceased to merit their
casein, and that my remaining silent, es I
have done, living in seclusion, and standing aloof
from politics has been a greet sacrilee, which
they will one day appreciate. Al those who propagated the
report that I was about to take a portfolio in the interest
of a pretender, I answer with all the indignation of a man
of honour wantonly insulted, that their orations are false.
There never has been any question of a portfolio for me,
directly or indirectly, and the Neapolitan pretsusler bas no
more determined enemy than myself. Thanking you for
giving me an opportunity of contradicting the reports spread
against me, 1 request that you will publish this letter in
yourieurnal—GlßOLAlllo VLLOA.
..aphis, Sept. l."
A eorremoodent tress Naples, writing to the Prase,
says "As to the rearms which keep General linos aloof
from politics, I believe I know them in pert, and can anti-
cipate the explanations Ise promisesto his friends. I saw the
' general a few days after his return to ?dupla, and he was
pleased to converse with me as with au old friend. I saw
that the eyes of the defender of lialghem are still turned
towards Venice. His great desire is to deliver that heroic
city, which, in the revolutionary war, held out alone to the
last moment, and did not yield till long after ell Italy was
subjugated. To attain that end, General Ulloa does not
amerce the natio-ion or unionist levelling to be the right
way. He thinks that the grand desideratum is an army cud
men. Now, at Naples, he sees revolution rind conquest
demoralise and annihilate the army, instead of constituting
it upon a solid basis, and rendering it Italian. He would
have preferred a movement giving soldiers to Italy to one
which only overturns a throne to add a province to Pied-
mont. Being unable either to adhere to that movement or
to restrain it, he stands aloof. Here we have an opinion
add a sentiment. The opinion may he mistaken ; it is not
for me to decide that point ; bat the sentiment is that of an
honest man."

FALKIRK Tavirr.—On Tuesday the heavy High-
land beasts shown at this market, and others from Moray,
Aberdeen, and Fife. were in rather short supply ; and the
smaller description of Highlanders had 14 meagre appraranee
in point of numbers. The buyers from Englund were
numerous, hut many of them came rather concenc hunting
than as buyers. Holders of tteruk having caked
large prices in the morning, and little reduction
having been made in the course of the do, several
Englishmen left without making a purchase. Sales
commenced very briskly about 7 o'clock, and in the
first three hours a good stroke of bminess was done amoug
the best clans of stock, especially of the West Highlanders.
The better sort of shorthorns and Irish met with au
equally ready demand. The market was considered. upon
the whole, to be ,good one for fair-conditioned two.yearold
'tots and heifereof the West Highland breed, and also forthe
better clam of North Highland bred tattle ; but the West
Highland heifent were more in demand than were the sorts.
The inferior kinds of stock from the North Highlands, the
Muir of Ord, Caithness, &c., met with a rather (lull sale, in
many iustauces not paying the dealer. ; and at the doer of
the market a good many of them remained unsold. Really
good heifers and ritots realised to-day fully Ire. a haul over
the prices of last September's tryst, but inferior sorts were

LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

FRIDAY'S RACING AT DONCASTER.
TO TNT EDITOR OF TIT TIMM&
SlR,—The St. Leger has resulted in the triumph
of onitof those "doubtful" home that have had so much
their own way this year, fur St. Albans was booked a
" dead 'un " by many of the layers, and his owner was nut
coolitkot eoough to back him for money, having after the
race asserted as a remota that the horse was not half pre-
Howse's, be won very cleverly, and, despite the
lb penalty, ha will be heady for the Cup if they pull him
out against such homes a. High Treason (31b extra), Urn-
we, -Wallace, sad Thormanby (71b extra), not forgettiog
Wizard idlb extra?, Mouravieff, Wild Rose, sad one or
two others who cannot quite be clamed with St.
Leger and Derby winners. Umpire ran very for-
went in the race to-day, until St. Albans came
away from him, when Forilharn ceased to perse-
vere, and I cannot but suppose that the Yankees will
be compensated for their di appointment by carrying off
the Cup. The other races on Friday promise well, for the
Wisard has a "clipper" no his own distance to meet in the
Don Stakes, one mile, and Buccaneer showed to-day he
can go pretty fast, although I cannot help rowing in with
Whitewall and the Wizard. In the Doncaster Stakes, for
3-yr-elds, one rule and a half, St Albans has 10Ibe., and
the Wiserd 511 as. extra to Caere, which may keep them
away as tape Flyaway is a dangerous antagonist for Lord
Another'''. colt, and he should win, after being reamed
fur it all the week. In the 21110 soya Sweepstakes, for
3-yrelds, St. Leger course, Tam Bowline must take can
of Northern Light, the ground being in every way waited to
the latter ; hut the Park Hill Stakes, 3-yr-old
fillies, St. Lager course, will produce • race
enth three or four, as Catawba, Emily, Stockade,
and Lady Trespass am all very St, mad ia spleadad form.
The last mentioned did not perform very well ia the Pita-
yesterday, but the extra three-quarters of • mile
may prove more suitable to her, and she ought to dispose of
Catawba and Emily, who do not like travelling too far at
one start. Stockade, however, should greatly annoy her
ladyship, if we may believe in what they said of her before
York, that she d "do" Donner and Blitz at borne, as
the latter proved himself a good bone in the Done:Later
Plate. Aerie, Moorhen, who was only a lad second to
Stockade when receiving 71be. at York, won the Great
Yorkshire Handicap from the highly trio! Chen Am*
which speaks so highly in favour of Stockade, that I can-
not bet couple him with Lady Trespass to gm at the
winner.— l am, kc., METEOR.

Mr. Peen said that the directors had inquired into the
particulate of the recent melancholy accident, but they had
not made any report. The subject had been fully gone
into by the coroner, the government inspector having been
present on the second day of the inquiry, which was not yet
terminated. The chairman of the company, Sir Charles
Boughton, Mr. firsasey, himself, and other officers of the
company, had been present, and afforded all the informa-
tion in their power to the coroner, inspector, and jury. The
passengers who bad been injured were going on favourably,
and, with the exception of Mr. Jolson, no death had taken
place.
The meeting then separated.
