" We believe there is no doubt of the resignation of

also believe that theris is no doubt that Mr. Webster

at least, and very likely for good and all. Ot the
authenticity of the statement on this point we have no
doubt; for we have received intelligence thereof, in the
most undotibtedThape, during, the passage of Mr.- Web-
ster through this city on his return to Boston. We do
not believe that 'Mr. Webster means to re-enter the
Cabinet, even if he should return Jo Washington; mad

ELECTION SATURDAY AT ETON
COLLEGE.
On Saturday morning the Rev. Dr. Okes, Provost of
King's College, Cambridge, and Vice-Chancellor of that
University, arrived at Eton College, accompanied by the
Rev. Mr. Witts and the Rev. Mr. Thring, the posers.
They were received by the Rey. Mr. Hodgson, the Pro-
vost, the Rev. De. Hawtrey, the Head Master, mad
others of the college authorities. At about half past
ten a brilliant assembly of about 300 had collected in
the upper school to hear the speeches. The school was
fitted up in the same manner as on the occasion of
Prince Albert's visit, on the 4th of June, and the com-
pany had much the same appearance. Scarcely bad
the audience taken their seats, and the boys, to the
number of 600, assembled in the part allotted to their
use, when the Provost, Fellows, Masters, and Assistant-
masters accompanied by the' most distinguished of
their guests, entered the school-room. Foremost of all
walked the Earl of Derby, who was immediately re-
cogi.ised by the boys; and the cry of " Three cheers
for Lord Derby" found a ready response, in the midst
of which his Lordship bowed his acknowledgments,
and took a seat near to the dais whence the speeches
ware delivered. His Lordship was accompanied
by Mr. Secretary Walpole, Lord Stratford de Redcliffe,
Lord Charles Clinton, Mr. W. B. Bayley, and others of
the neighbouring gentry and clergy. After the speeches
had commenced the Duke of Newcastle arrived, and took
his seat near Lord Derby. Lord John Manners after-
wards made his appearance, and joined the distinguished
circle. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, who, as Sir Strat-
ford Canning, was well known and universally respected
at Eton, did not appear to be recognized, or his Lordship
would, most likely, have been greeted with a Cheer, on
his return from Constantinople.
The only new feature in the upper school since last
year consists in the addition of exquisitely sculptured
busts of her Majesty and the Prince Consort, presented
by them to the college. We cannot, however, compli-
ment the authorities on the judgment displayed in choos-
ing a position for the figures of the Queen and the
Prince. They are placed above the principal entrance,
almost out of sight, and are looking from instead of to-
wards each other. A bust of the late Earl Grey (by
Campbell) has just been presented to the College by the
family of his Lordship, and will be placed in the upper
school. The family of Lord Denman have also signified
their intention of presenting a bust of his Lordship for
the same purpose.
The election speeches proceeded in the following
order:—
Puller, " Micipsa ad filios et Jugarthatn."—Sallustius.
Heatbeote, m a., " Coriolanus. —Shakspere.
Lambert, " Creon."—Sophocles.
Wilder, " Charolois."—Massinger.
Carter, ma., K.S., "In Aschinem, ex Orat. de Corona."
—Demosthenes.
Scott, ma., " Richard ll.''—Shakspere.
Wilberforce, K.S., " Pro Milone."—Cicero.
Patk, ma., " Hotspur."—Shakspere.
Harper, me., K.S., " Philoctetes."—Sophooles.
Evered, K S., " Against Taxing the American Colo-
nies."—Burke.
Sterry, ma., K. 5.," Shylock."—Shekspete.
Bing, " Theramenes."—Racine.
Thackeray, K.S., "On the Employment of Indians in
the War with America."—Lord Chatham.
Neville, " Drances."—Virgilius.
Earl of Lincoln," Turnus."—Virgilius.
Cookesley, ma., Hamlet to the Players."—Shakspere.
Mathias, K.S., " Duke of Buckingham."—Shakspere.
The whole of the speeches were exceedingly well de-
livered, and as well received, Sterry and Cookesley call
jog forth the most decided marks of approbation.
Evered's most striking passages assages from Burke's master-
piece, delivered in Capital style, seemed to attract the
attention of the Noble Premier. Cookesley's very diffi-
cult recitation from Hamlet was given delightfully,
Sterry's scene from Shylock—the dialogue on the Rialto
with Antonio—was a fine piece of acting as well as
speaking.
The usual banquet took place in the afternoon, in the
College-hall, which was decorated with ancient tapestry
and otner wise appropriately fitted up for the occasion.
The beautiful model of the College chapel, in silver (the
gift of his late Majesty King William IV.), was placed
on the centre table. The noble and distinguished com-
pany present at the speeches, reinforced by numbers who
arrived later in the day, were the guests of the Provost
and Fellows. Mr. Disraeli was expected, but the Right
[lon. Gentleman was not present. The toast of " Her
Majesty's Ministers" was drunk with enthusiastic ap-
plause, and when the Earl of Derby rose to return
thanks the ancient ball reverberated with the cheers
of the company. His Lordship, in the course of an
eloquent and feeling speech, alluded to his early
days and youthful pleasures at Eton, and stated that
the Cabinet of which he had the honour to be the head
numbered no less than eight Etonians. Again the old
hall rang with the plaudits of the guests, and it is many
„years since an election Saturday went off with so much
-spirit. We might add that Mathias is the captain of the
school, and that the number of boys on the books is
598, being about 6 less than at the corresponding period
of last year.

D AND OTHER POEMS. By John
Clark Ferguson.
The success of Mr. Fergirco.'s former work, "The
Pleisures of Music"—a work which, he tells us in
. preface, has gained for him the acquaintance of
' the Prince of Novelists," has encouraged him to
make a second venture. The poems contained in
this little unpretending volume are of a most graceful
and pleasing character, awl will add to the popularity
of their author.

A RIDE THROUGH THE NUBIAN DE-
SERT. By Captain W. Peel, R.N. Longmans.
If the name of its author in the first instance at-
tracts- attention to this little unpretending volume,
the frank and manly tone in which it is written, and
the genial spirit by which it is throughout pervaded,
will not fail to rivet the interest of the reader, and
to win for the writer very general sympathy and
regard. The eight chapters contained in this
volume, the brief length of which will
disappoint many, are, we learn from the preface, a
literal copy of the journal kept by Captain Peel
Oaring his travels. " The limit of those travels," be
further observes, " was Labeyed, the capital of Kor-
dofan, where suffered so severely from fever and
sgoe that it obliged me to return. I arrived there
soon after the close of the rainy season, in the pride
of health, and confidentra success, but three weeks
after left, a pale and sickly shadow, with all my
thoughts brought down as to how I should save my
friend, who. was suffering still more severely than
myself." These misfortunes are the cause of the
abrupt termination of the travels. Instead of selecting
Specimens from these delightful pages, which abound
with anecdotes and with information, we advise our
readers to turn to the book itself, and we assure them
that, having made the acquaintance of Captain Peel,
they will thank us heartily for the introduction.

PE CATACOMBS OF ROME. By C. Mac-
It farane. Routledge.
is stated at thel
commencement of this little work
that, besides the Rome upon the earth, there is
an°ther Rome under the earth. This mysterious
creation well deserves attention ; it was dedicated to
the church, there the early Christians withdrew to
etTaPe persecution and perform their worship un-
molested ; there they interred their mart) re. The
epitaphs and inscriptions found in the catacombs are
?wen at the and of the book, which are very interest-
!,nit to peruse; on the whole, a very good idea of
Rome Subterranea" may be formed from reading
attentively this volume.

Mr. Labouchere, have indeed contrived to weather the

of the House of Bedford, the eldest son of the Duke of
Somerset, and two of the connexions of our wealthiest
merchants, could not And rest for the sole of their foot

theta ior the reconstruction of the party thus di.reaii.,

back; indeed, for popular achievements, and while the
Principles of his first Reform Bill have every chaope of
heink greatly extended, and the commercial policy
Which he maintained is sure, to be carried out, he is so
far, from being able to enlist new support that he cannot
even command a personal following, or exercise suffi-
cient influence over the country to obtain the return of
hi4,ancient friends and devoted adherents. Lord Grey
Would never be tolerated by any Government except as
Secretary for the Colonies, and in that position he has
become absolutely impossible, nor is it very probable that
thenation willever demand the restoration of Sir C Wood
to the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer. We think that
the elections have pretty well dispelled the fear which
lurked in many minds of a rso mstruction of the Wbig
party on its old exclusive and dynastic principles. While
men are entering Parliament without a single tangible
profession except their willingness to support Lord
Derby, others are starting J
in u life advocating
almost all the principles of Lord ohnblic Russsll, but care-
sully guarding themselves from expressing any intention
of fighting under his leadership. The name of the dead
Sir Robert Peel has yet a charm; the name of the
living Lord Derby is all that his party has to cling to;
but the name of the gieat Whig leader conciliates few
supporters and enlists no proselytes. This is no new
thing. For the second lime in twelve years we see the
Whig party its a state of disorganization and dissolu-
tion, and in both cases this result was preceded by a
Phenomenon of a precisely similar nature. For all
esitentiel purposes there is a complete historical parallel
between, the last years of Lord Melbourne and Lord J.

widows, veterans, and employes are dying with hunger,
soldiers who are not soldiers glitter in beautiful dresses;
while the savages are already at Jalisco and San Luis,
and no means for defence are to be found, the capital of
the republic presents the farce of a military parade; and
while clamour is rife against Congress for the want of

bridge:— • .
- •
," Late in the evening of yesterday, a young man
named Michael Glynn was conveyed by his father, mo-
ther, end his sister,
.on a. cart from Six-mile-bridge to
Barrington's Hospital, labouring under a severe bullet
wound in the groin. The ball passed clear through the
fleshy part of the thigh, without affecting the bone.
Hopes are entertained of his recovery, though his con-
dition is not free from danger. It appears that he was
standing.at a distance from the crowd and soldiers when
the firing took plane; and• he alleges that the only cause
given for the firing was some stones thrown by a few
women who had been weeding potatoes near the green of
Six-mile-bridge, when they saw •the voters escorted by
Mr. Delmege ancl,a party of.the 31st. All was quietness
and good order up to that moment. A man of the name
of Haneen died of his wounds about six o'clock P.M.
The lives of °there arc despaired of. Another man,
whose name we have not ascertained,

THE SAILORS' REVIEW.
The following is from a Gibraltar paper of the 7th
instant:
".The neutral ground, the scene of many a manoeuvre
of the troops stationed in the garrison, from the fre-
quency of this occurrence generally attracts within its
precincts but few attendants at these military spectacles.
A well-founded on dit, however, having gone forth a
few days ago, that a battolion of the 'sister service,'
taken from the various ships composing the fleet at pre-
sent lying is the bay, was to have a field day,' a large
number of spectators were drawn to the spot early on
Monday morning. There was a novelty in the idea;
expectation was roused, and people wondered (unpardon-
ably we must own, on this occasion) whether Ocean's
Son,' from the few opportunities be could necessarily
have of acquiring a knowledge of and practice in 'Drill,'
would note, bear .perhaps a semblance—a little wo say.
! a fish out.of water.' But the results of the morn-
ing proved that Jack has amphibious' qualities, and
lhatf.whother required •by his country to serve upon
` the open sea' or terra firnia,le is equally at home upon
both, and ready to attend to her call. The morning se-
lected. was remarkably • favourable, and the process of
disembarkation made an extremely pretty Spectacle from
the Landport-gates, whence the men in their neat white
.dress and straw hats were seen filing along the wharf
fromtheir boats, while the calm surface of the water was
broken into a thousand' bright reflections by the dip of
many a well-timed oar. The divisions after being collected
moved to their poSition, and received the admiral in line
with the usual coMpliment. The line was then broken
into open column of companies and marched past in
quick 'time. The bands of the Bellerophon and Ven-
geance were in attendance. The meo;c...ntng their
original position, the column was wheeled into line and
pertorined the manual and platoon exercise, which, not-
withstanding the difficulty of the word of command
reaching everywhere, from the great length of the line,
was done in good time, and showed them to be on terms
of intimacy with 'Brown Bess' equal with the soldier.
g
The officer commanding the brigad, Lord George Pau-
lot, then put the battalion through the various manceuvres,
forming open column, direct echellon of battalions,
and then square, re-formingadvancing in line, the
dressing of which was beautifully preservedh and caused
admiration. We venture to assyertref
reigned
tdsuch universal
and perfect good. bum our never throughoutha a
day's drill; but it was clearly to beg seen
careless glance could easily turn, at a moment's that their
into the stern feailess.expression characteristic of 'thee
firm Courage which has ever carried everything before
them. The battalion was then broken up and marched
to the several places of embarkation, the bands playing
popular naval airs. Altogether it was an extremely
Pleasing sight; and many, particularly of the fair sex,
saw that morning the Neutral Ground at an hour at
which they had never seen it before. We are in hopes
that, when the fleet pays us another visit, we shall have
such inothei field day.

No. CCLXXI.
THE PROBABLE FIELDS FOR TO-MORROW'S

RACES AT GOODWOOD.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—The Gratwicke Stakes—Longbow, Father
Thams;King Pepin, the• Nabob, and perhaps Hesperus.
LONGBOW and FATHER THAMES are almost certain to
occupy the first and second plates, King Pepin being
third, Nabob fourth, and Hesperus last.
The Ham Stakes—Belgravia, Potentia colt, Incense,
Estrella; Baleine filly, Phrygia, Miss Sarah filly, Tat-
fourd, Belle Sauvage filly, and Refraction colt, to which
it is probable may be added Vanderdecken, Defiance,
and War-whoop. As I have already remarked in my
note of Friday, I can discover nothing to beat BEL-
GRAVIA, without it is destined to be accomplished by
Vanderdecken or Phrygia; the only others of note iu
the race being Talfourd and the Paraction colt.
The great -300 Sovs. Stakes—Newminster, Midas,
Harpsichord, and perhaps, for the chance of saving his
stake, Croupier. Of course, NEWMINSTER and MIDAS
Will be first and second.

The 50 Sovs. Sweepstakes—HAßßlNGEß, STOCKWELL,
MAIDSTONE. It is not utterly impossible but that they
may run in in the order I have placed them.
The Lavant Stakes—Sister to Mountain Deer, Wil-
liam Rufus, Torment, Amazon, Margaret of Anjou, and
perhaps the Potentia colt. THE SISTER TO MOUNTAIN
DEER and WILLIAM RUFUS I anticipate seeing first
and second, with the Amazon close up.
The other two races will not close and name until to-
night.
The prices for to-morrow's events rule as follow:
Gratwicke Stakes-2 to 1 each agst Longbow and Father
Thames, 5 to 2 agst King Pepin, 6 to 1 agst The Nabob,
Bto 1 agst Claverhouse, 10 to 1 agst any other. Ham
Stakes-3 to 1 each agst Belgravia and the Refraction
colt, 7 to 2 agst Vanderdecken, 5 to 1 each agst Taltourd
and Defiance, 8 to 1 apt Phrygia and Incense. 300
Soya. Stakes-3 and 4tol on Newminster, various odds
from 5 to 10 to 1 eget Midas, Croupier, and Harpsi-
chord. 50 Soya. Stakes-5 to 4on Harbinger, and 6to
4 agst Stockwell. Levant Stakes—Even on Sister to
Mountain Deer; nothing else mentioned. •
I may as well observe, before closing this note, that ,
Haricot and Musician still continue in great force at 8
tilar, my second favourite,
and 11 to i for the Stakes;
Houlakin is friendless; consequently I shall bring my
third tancy into the second position, and award the third
to Musician.—l am, &c.,

THE TRUSTEE ACT.—An Act was passed on the
30th ult. to extend the provisions of the "Trustee Act, 1850."
By this Act the Court of Chancery may make certain orders
in estates of persons under its jurisdiction, at a very little
expense, for vesting estates and the transfer of stock, &c.,
as also the appointment of new trustees, " without its being
necessary that the order should be made in Chancery, as well
as in lunacy, or be passed and entered by the registrar of the
Cart OfShallgery."_
