DEATH OF JOHN BULL.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES.
Sir,—That pugnacious, but otherwise estimable person,
poor dear Bull had so made up his mind " to go in for
another round" that I lament to inform you the intelli-
gence of the proclamation of the treaty of peace in Paris
had so alarming an effect upon his nervous system that he
departed this lite immediately on the intelligence reach-
ing this country.
Respect for his memory induces me to place myse fin
mourning for the next six months.—. Yours in deep afflic-
tion and humiliation, Abacus.

Eight o'clock will oblige the publisher by addressing a note
to him at the office notifying the fact, in order that the
cause of complaint may be investigated and removed. As
our messengers commence their delivery at five o'clock on

subscribers would have letter-boxes in their doors through
which the papers might be dropped, as the detention at
some houses is very great at present, and causes delay and
disappointment to other subscribers.

OR THERIN TIMES.

Plenipotentiaries will be entertained at a grand dinner
by Count Walewski, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
The illuminations last night ,a ere very numerous, but
on the Boulevards not so brilliant as they might have
been. To-day some houses, here and there, have added
to the French and English flags, with which•they are
decorated, those of Austria, Prussia, and Russia.
With the exception of the semi-official journals, only
one, the Union, publishes an article on the peace.
These papers are, of course, delighted.
Strange to say, there has been rather a heavy decline
on the Bourse to-day ; but this is owing to the state of
the market.
The Bank of France has reduced its rate of discount
to 5 per cent.
Although nothing is of much interest at present,
apart from the peace, I may mention, that the Prince of
Capua, husband of the famous Penelope Smith, is
intriguing incessantly against his brother, the King of
Naples ; also, that he wrote a pamphlet, so full of calum-
nies against him, that he could not find a printer to
11 print it.

FRANCE.
CESSATION OF WAR.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.

A despatch informs us that in consequence of
the conclusion of peace, and the cessation of
hostilities, an order has been given by the proper
authorities, for the immediate release from service
of those of the military, comprised in the class of
1848.

The Emperor to-day passed in review the
garrison of Paris.
The review, which was on a grand scale, took
place on the Champ de Mars, and was attended by
the foreign plenipotentiaries.

THE PEACE PROCEEDINGS.
PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING

The Illoniteur of this day announces that by
special decrees, the rank of Grand Cross of the
Legion of Honour, is conferred on Count Walewski,
and Baron de Bourqueney is raised to the dignity
of a Senator.

The ceremonial announcement of the conclusion
of peace was made to the Senate and the Corps
Legislatif on Monday, in the words previously
employed to proelaith the fact by the Moniteur.
The minister of state, however, added :—" The
Emperor has charged me that on bringing the fact
to your knowledge, I should thank you for the
patriotic support which you have always afforded
him, and with which the admirable devotedness
of the allied fleets and armies have so powerfully
contributed to the happy issue of the war."

DIVIDED AUTHORITY IN THE TOWN

Mr. Gladstone, in calling attention to-the state of the pave-
ment on the west side of George's dock, painted out the evils

arising from the divided authority in the town having charge of
the streets and thoroughfares. The property of the community
was under the management of the borough engins4r as to the
officer of the health committee; the corporation property under
the charge of their surveyor ; and then again, the property of the
dock esta e, and the docks, street-, and quays, were under the
management of the dock surveyor, in other words, there were
three dist;net parties to do that which could best be performed
by one efficient and competent officer. The evil of such an
anomally would be at once seen when he mentioned that of the
space between the west side of George's dock and the river,
each of the three parties was responsible for some portion of
the pavement. He had brought the matter before the dock
committee on that day, and by them it had been referred to a
sub-committee, and he thought that steps should be also taken
to bring it before the council, and to suggest that the corpora.
,hould be placed under the management of the
borough engineer, the estate, as a matter of course, bearing
the expense of whatever work wouM be done.
Mr. Shell, Mr. Tinne, and wirer members of the com-
mittee concurred with Mr. Gladstone, and it was agreed that
he should move a reso!ution in the matter at their next meet-
ing, in order that it may formally be brought before the
council.
This concluded the business.

FRIDAY. JUNE 6, 1856

THE heavy visitation which has just overtaken
France calls for the sympathy and assistance Of
every European nation, but especially the people
of England. The devastations caused by the
recent inundations of the southern provinces

must have reduced thousands of families to the
most pitiable destitution. Whole towns, villages'
and districts have been laid waste by the deluge,
and where the losses of their inhabitants
will end, no man can tell. The dis-
tresses which human vice and folly bring
on give notice of their approach, and their
worst anguish is looked upon as a natural sequence.
We are not, therefore, taken by surprise. Time

Buenos Ayres had replied to the Federal Government,

Government has resolved to consider the treaty of Dec.

Ayres. During the late storms, several persons lost
their lives in the Cordilleras. The dam ige to crops,

THE COURT.

The Queen visited the Duchess of Gloucester on
Wednesday, at Gloucester-house. Her Majesty after-
wards took a drive in an open landau and four, with the
Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal. Prince Albert,
the Regent of Baden, and Prince Frederick William of
Prussia went on Wednesday morning to Oxford Uni-
versity. The royal party left Buckingham Palace soon
after eight o'clock, in three carriages and four, for the
terminus of the Great Western Railway at Paddington,
and travelled by a special train to Oxford. The royal
party returned to Buckingham Palace at a quarter past
seven o'clock. The Prince of Wales rode on horseback
in the forenoon, and Prince Arthur, with the Princesses
Helena and Louisa, took a drive in an open carriage and
four. Her Majesty had a dinner party in the evening.
The company included the Duchess of Kent, the Princess
Royal, the Regent of Baden, and Prince Frederick
William of Prussia, the Prussian Minister and Countess
Bernstorff, the Earl and Countess of Westmoreland, the
Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl and Countess of Clarendon,
Lady Anna Maria Dawson, Baroness de Speth, Lord and
Lady Wodehouse, and the Right Hon. Sir George and
Lady Grey.

THE COMMERCE OF THE MERSEY.—Messrs. James
Baines and Co. yesterday despatched two vessels for
Melbourne, namely, the Saldanha (carrying the usual bi-
monthly mail), and the Montmorency—both of which
carried out large and valuable cargoes, and full comple.
ment of passengers. We believe this is the first occasion
upon which one firm have despatched two large vessels
in one day for any port in the Australian colonies, and
the fact may be taken as a satisfactory proof that there
is a gradual and progressive increase in the trade between
the Mersey and the antipodes. We may also notice that
the same firm have put a vessel on the berth to
sail from this port for Auckland, New Z:aland. The vessel
selected for this new trade is the fine sharp clipper-ship
Conference, which was built by Messrs. Tavleur and Co.,
of Warrington, and a description of 1.14..11 we gave in
letail when sho was launched. The trace.-
