ST. THOMAS CHARTERHOUSE SCHOOLS.

Last night the new wing which it has been
found oeoeawary to add to these already extetudve and
valuable schools was opened with an address by the Rev.
F. D. Maurice, Y.A. Although the school accommodation
already provided was adequate for 1,300 scholar at one
time (exclusive of the Golden-lane schools), the increase of
scholars, especially is the evening schools, was so great
that it was found requisite to make further addi-
tions to the building. The new wing contains
a reading-room, museum, lecture room, and ac-
commodation for 200 additional whalers. When it
is stated that the number of separate schools in which
instruction is given on week days is Di, of which 8 are
day and 10 evening schools, some idea may be entertained
of the great amount of benefit which I. diffused by the
agency of this educational institute, the establishment of
which is mainly due to the exertions of the Rev. W.
Roger.. In addition to the usual branches of education
Intim French, and some of the higher mathematics are
taught.• Lectures and readings are also provided, and
judging from the attendance last night this will
sot be the least popular mode of conveying in-
formation. The Rev. Mr. Maurice opened his ad-
dims by recognising in terms of well-merited praise the
amnia Mr. Rogers, who, he said, did more than any per is Loudon to promote the education of boys and girls.
He did practically on weekdays what he inculcated on the
Sunday, and surrounded the working classes of the district
in which he was placed with the mews of meaning their '
rights as rem of resisting strong temptations, of rising in
the social scale, of mskiog their homes happier and
pleasanter, of associating their lives with the past greet men
of England, and of transmittindbetter and higher influences
to the generations that were to succeed them. The address
was mach applauded, and a vote of thanks passed to the
rev. fmtlernen for its delivery. This evening there will

wbe is to do it. On Thursday, the Rev. W. H. Brook-

THE POLICE COURTS.

GUILDHALL

Morrie, a traveller, in the employ of Mr. George
Prawn, • wholesale provision merchant, of Setcole-laoe,
was charged with embezzling 91., and other sums, amount-
ing in the aggregate to nearly 30W., the moneys of his

and Sarah, his wife, were charged with stealing a quantity
of braes and copper, the property of the Great Northern
Railway Company.
The male prisoner has been in the employ of the company
for about nine years, and great confidence was placed in
him. He was the foreman over six men, and was in the
receipt of 30a. per week. He had under hie care a lugs
quantity of copper bolts and pieces of copper and braes.
The wife of the prisoner was seen by Sergeant Thomas,
41 N, to go into a marine store dealer's in the Holloway-
road, and offer for sale a number of pieces of copper. As
she did not give a satisfactory account of how she became
=t of them he lock her up, and then he ascot-
locked her
the copper was stolen.
Mr. Williams, the inspector of the Great Northern Com-
pany's police, said that in consequence of the prisoner's pre-
vious good character the secretary wished to recommend
him to mercy. The prisoners had had • great many
family difficulties of late to contend with.
The male prisoner said he was very sorry for what be bad
done. He had difficulties on one hand and temptations on
other, and unfortunately he gave way to the latter.
Mr. Taynootirt sentenced the male prisoner to two months'
hard labour for the unlawful possession, but discharged the
female prisoner.

FRANCE AND SWITZERLAND.
PARIS, Nov. 6.

Ihe Menikur, in its bulletin of to-day, says :
"The foreign press having made numerous oqm-
meats on the subject of the appearance of a few
French gendarmes and soldiers in the village of
Cressonieres, belonging to the Valley of Dappes,
it is of importance to reduce the facts to their real
value. We have as yet no exact information
with regard to the incident, but we are
able to affirm that the government of the Emperor
has never had the idea of determining by force, by
means of a military occupation, the territorial
question pending between France and Switzerland.
Since 1815 there has existed a kind of neutralisa-
tion of the contested territory, against which the
canton of Vaud recently made an attempt by pro-
ceeding to arrest some persons. Thu government
of the Emperor protested against this alteration of
the stabs qiw, intimating that if the gendarmes
of Vaud recommenced such proceedings, we
should be compelled to oppose them. The tribunal
of Nyon having pronounced sentence against •
Frenchman residing in this territory, we simply
wished to prevent his arrest. The affair, therefore,
has not the importance that some would attribute
to it. We do not doubt that frank explanations
with the Federal Council will reduce the affair to
its real proportions, and perhaps lead to the con-
clusion of an arrangement destined to put an end
to the conflicts which could not fail to arise from
an ill-defined state of things."

of a treaty of commerce between Frnnce and Prus-

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(non OUR OWN OORRERPONDINT.)
PARK FRIDAY ErINIPu.

It is said, upon I know not what authority, that
England advises the Italian government to call in
to its aid in South Italy the immense prestige and
popularity of Garibaldi. I need not add that such
a policy would be viewed with great disfavour
here.

With regard to the presence of the fleet at
Naples, we learn this evening that the Austrian
government has demanded au explanation at the
court of St. James's.

M. Taxile Delord gives us iu the Sidcle the fol-
lowing extracts from the address of the curd of an
important commune in the department of the
Ardeche, previously to intoning the Te Delon on
the fete of the I.sth. The municipal council, of
which about one-half are protestant+, was present:
Theme are now two parties : the party of good, which is
God's party ; and the party of evil, which is that of the
devil, and of those who represent Luther and Calvin. The
party of truth, justice, and right ; the party of impiety
and of the revolution—respecting neither family nor property
—robbing and spoiling ; people whom you may catch
with their hands in your pocket, and who will
yet deny their intentions. They make use of Mu.
*int and Garibaldi for the accomplishment of their
criminal ends. They am robbers after the American pat.
tern. The hour of combat has sounded. Let us arise—we
shall be millions! Pins IX. has promised to spend his last
crown, and shed the last drop of his blood, to defend his
rights so basely disavowed. Let us arise as one nun for the
defence of our holy religion, which the revolution seeks to
destroy !_

The Naples correspondent of the Anti fie in Rth-
gion informs us that the English fleet has taken up
its position in the Bay of Naples, at the request of
Baron Ricasoli, and that, after a long conference
between the English admiral and the military
authorities at Naples, it has been decided that
the English forces shall aid the Italians to repress
the Neapolitan insurrection. He adds that the
offer of the admiral to "occupy " the Castel del
Nuovo with his artillery was " for the present" de-
clined by Cialdini, who contented himself with the
loan of some ammunition. The journal in which
this appears cries out against the English inter-
vention, and, apropos of the subject, prints Sir G.
Bowyer's letter (now nearly a fortnight old) to
Lord Palmerston. Your readers will remember
that the hon. member for Rome made the British
government responsible for what has happened in
South Italy.
The Bourse was flat, with scarcely any business.
It is thought that railway shares are generally below
the prices which the receipts on the various lines
entitle them to maintain. Should this be true, a
rise in this sort of property may be expected at no
distant period. Rents left off sc. better than
yesterday both for cash and the account, the closing
prices being 68fr. 50c. for both. The Mobilier
fell lfr. 25c. for account, leaving off at 735 fr. for
cash and 738 fr. 75c. for account.

We understand that Mr. Doming, of Liverpool,
has purchased the three screw steam ships, Leopold,
Princess Charlotte, and Southampton, known as the sister
ships of the screw steam ship Prince Albert, of the Galway
line. A few years ago these ships, built for the Belgian
Royal Mail Company, cost about 220,0001., and it is stated
they have been secured at the low price of about 50,0001. It
is believed that these vessels are intended to ply from either
Liverpool or Southampton vial Galway to New York.

OLYMPIC.

The season at this favourite place of amusement
was brought to a close last evening, when the followiog
eaten was delivered by its spirited aod popular manager,
lib. Robson :

Ladies and Gentlemen,—After a season that has lasted
nearly two years, and has therefore included something like
eight seasons—a ocenmost measure—l venture to bid you a
short farewelL U I wanted to sacrifice fact for the sake of
a happy illusion, I should say I was about to repose in my
chimney earner, but as this happens to be the month of
August, wham people think more of cool sea breezes than
el warm firesides, I am perfectly certain you would not
believe me. Our old.fashiooed farmers are in the habit of
banging gammon of bacon in their chimneys, but
here is • case in which even gammon and chim-
neys must be utterly disconnected, especially as
I wish sincerely. to refer to • very serious subject.
That constant intercourse that has been long mum.
gated between us, delightful to me, and, I trust,
not unpleasant to you, has this year been interrupted by
my sudden and severe illness. However, this affliction has
proved to me • source of high gratification, for it hen served
to show me that my friends are more numerous than I had
dared to hope. The many public inquiries that were made
respecting my health during • period of pain and prastra-
Hoe have left MO deep an impression on my mind,
that I feel more strongly than ever the tie,
that of obligation, that binds me to my generous
patrons. Both my partner sod myself must
plead guilty to the charge of intreducing a " Little Rebel "
into our generally orderly establishment, but as you seem
to have been gratified by the innovation, I need offer re
apologies on that subject. There is one matter, however,
of which lam entirely guiltless. Taking advantage of my
Masse, nay partner, who prides himself on being • mural
man, entered into an engagement—the sly rogue—with
"A Charming Woman." Aye, and be is quite reedy to
bear all the responsibility of his iodiscretioa ; icor, it amass,
you esimpliment him on his taste, and acknowledge that the
lady in question is • very charming woman indeed ; mid—
whisper, let me tell you—but this is between ourselves—
she 111 so much Littered by your good opinion, that she
means to remain with us daring the whole of next sewn.
On the 'Gird of September we shall, I trust, meet again, and
my partner and myself will be found true to our old prioci-
of establishing our theatre ma a place where smiles are
meet and hearty, tears few and gentle, and blushes alto-
get .•rll r 011110W11. ni thee, grateful for the pest, hopeful
for the future, we both bid you farewell.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 24, U6l.

railways, steamers, and other public conveyances had brisk
work on their heeds to provide for the amommodation of

passengers. Hotels and taverns were filled with visitors,
and as the evening approached the leading thoroughfares
were crowded by strangers and citizens, who made the oc-
casion of her Majesty's arrival • holiday.
Owing to the fact of its having been generally known
that her Majesty wished her visit to Ireland to be as private
as possible, in every instance people, however anxious
to chow their respect for the Queen, abstained from any
attempt at anything like intrusion, and for this reason the
police had very little trouble in carrying out their instruc-
tions, and it must be add that the manner in which the
civic force discharged their duty did them much credit.
There was no " blustering," or bullying, and, as a conse-
quence, even in the most crowded pl►ces there was the
greatest order and decorum. la the year 1849, during the
viceroyalty of the Earl St. Germans, the Queen planted •
tree in the plmsure-ground of the Viceregal Lodge. This
tree is now much grown, sad her Majesty will plant another
this day (Friday). Others will be planted by the Prince
Consort, the Princesses Alice, Helena, and Prince Alfred.

LATEkt

TURF! O'CLOCK A.M.

The Military Academy, a large and fine building, is jest
beginning to burn. A company of our men, just returned
from i,ho village, state that the fire is raging furiously.
The Amon of the Academy were saturated with camphine
and other combustible material of an inflammable nature,
awl, to insure a thorough draught of air, holes bare been
bored in the floor. Signals have been exchanged between this
place and Fortress Monroe, for a considerable period, and
WI are hourly expecting an attack.

STILL LATER.
The destruction of Hampton is complete ; smouldering
ruins are the only objects visible, presenting a desolate and
heartrending appearance. Six families were left at Hamp-
ton when it was evacuated by our troops last week, but
nothing is known as regards the fate that has befallen them.
They undoubtedly perished.
No rebels are cow to be seen. Newport News has not
yot been attacked—an attack, however, is expected to-night.
Our guard near the seminary was fired upon at one o'clock
this morning, by rebels seems the river. Preparations are
being made both there and at the fortress to repel en at-
tack with vigour.

The lame journal has the following, with rsgard
to the concentration of Confederate troops in
Virginia:

Reliable intelligence has been received that the rebels

At Trevangon, near Norbert!), in Pembrokeshire
(ss,a the Iresiern Daily Prras), there is a small burial ground,
which ;.,rely Gil). into the possession of a gentleman in that
neighbourhood, who shortly efttrwards determined to de-
stroy it by ploughing hover, but it was fortunately saved I))
the timely interference of a gentleman belonging to this city.
It appears that the proprietor of this piece of ground,
in order to eatable-1i hie authority err it, hes imposed •
" com.ideration" of one halfpenny fur each corpse that is
brought there for burial. The arrangement, however, has
been disposed of by the deacons of the neighbouring church,
who persist iu claiming the right of burial without the
paymeut of the uhuorious " consideration." A native
f tb,t neighbourhood, the Rev. David Griffith., late
llapti,t minister, of Accrington. who died on the 19th
in4ant, lied expressed a wish during his lifetime to be
inters-41 at the buryMpgrenad at Trevangon. The body of
the ,leosesed gentleman was accordingly brought to Pem-
brokeshire by Lis relatives sad friends, and a grave belonging
to some friends of the deceased was opened at the burp
ground, but, on the urinal of the corps at N
owl, the proprietor of the ground at once ordered
some of his flies "to AU up this grave in eonsequenee
of the deacons of Ifyison refusing to give him his half-
penny' for allowing the body to be deposited there."
The-, were the worth, of our informant. The body had
to be taken beck to Narberth, and was buried there ; but
Mr. Rees, solicitor, of Haverfordweet, hearing of the
affair, hostene4 to Narberth, and called a meeting of the
Baptist e..ariel. when it was unanimously resolved to have
the body re. interred in the burying ground of Trevangos ;
and it was d”eided that if the pie Mould ho lucked the lock
should be broken, and an entrance by force effected. The
greatest iuterest in the affair prevails in the neighbourhood,
end it has been arranged that the funeral shall take Owe
on Monday next, the 4th of November. llrnnlars have
been already printed and seat to all the dissenting ministers
in that and the adjoining two counties, with invitations to
attend the funeral. Mr. Lewis, the owner of the pound,
in reply to a note addressed to him es the subject by-
the dfceaseirs Meads, data that be will enforce the pay-
ment of lb,. halfpeony. and positively emporia that if the
grave ,hould be 11441111.11111 bill will ardor his men to till it up,

PARIS, TUI:RBDAT EVICING.

The Temps drily observes that the declaration
that the Moniteur is the ouly official journal is
made for the twentieth time since the empire has
existed.

The Patric observes that it is not personally
referred to by the Monitcur, because there have
been no recent changes in its staff of writers. M.
Delamarre, it takes leave to say, is not in the same
position as Dr. Veron, because he (M. Delamarre)
is the sole proprietor of the Petrie, and is not
subject to dismissal. This declaration is probably
intended as a negative answer to M. Gueroult's
inquiry whether M. de h► Guerronniere has
become a proprietor.
The Bourse experienced considerable fluctuations,
but left off with scarcely any change. It turns out
that the Prussian loan of 15 million thalers has
not been effected. Rente closed with a rise of C.
for cash and no change for account, at Ggfr. 10e.
and 68fr. Mobilier rose 2fr. 50c. The Italian
loan remains stationary, and railways are only a
trifle higher.

M. Graudgnillot received, three days ago, a
summons for libel from the Council of State of
Geneva, to appear before the Correctional Tribunal
of the Seine.

There are to be four aeries of invitations iisued

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

PRUSSIA.

The elections for the Prussian Chamber of De.
puties will take place, in the lint degree, on the
19th of this mouth, and in the second degree on
the 6th of December. The King has addressed to
the authorities at Potsdam some remarks intended,
it is said, to destroy the impression produced by
his speech at Konigsberg. He said that he would
ever remain faithful to the constitution, and he
hoped that the people would do the same, and
would give him new proofs of it in the result of
the approaching elections. Similar language was
used by his Majesty to a deputation of students, to
whom he observed, "I am for reasonable and mo.
derate progress, and I intend to adhere to it."
