Tnr. LAT' EARL OF WrarrmonaLAND.—An honour
seldom paid to a foreigner baring no connexion with Franke
hes just been bestowed at Berlin in memory of the late Earl

persons in Berlin, and performed Beethoven's Funeral March,

NATIONAL SUNDAY LILAGUR.—A public meeting
to promote the objects of the leagne—the opening of the
national museutue, galleries, gardens, and libraries on
Sunday afternoon—was held yesterday evening, at the St.
Martin's. hall, Long-sere; Sir Joshua Walrueley occupied
the chair. After thanking the committee for appointing him
on five or six consecutive times to the ofßce of president of
the league, ho stated hie conviction that the onion of working
Men had always been of great advantage to that claw. This
eructation, however, though it had principally fur its object
the benefit of the working man, did not confine its operation
to that class. They invited iltscunion, and believed that if
liberty of diecnesion were allowed by their opponents the
national exhibitions would not long continue cloeed on the
Sunday. Hs was convinced that if this object were carried out it
would tend to decrease rather than increase the labour of the
working men, and would elevate his incite' position. The
association did not lack fond., but its inoonte only jest
served to cover its expenditure, and the canes would be
greatly advanoed if the committee were put in a better porn-
nittry poeition. On the motion of Dr. W. B. Carpenter,
seconded by Mr. Bertolaccie supported by Mr. Slack. • reso•
lotion favourable to the objects of the amociation was carried
after some discussion.
