LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1864.

Lord PALMERSTON has indeed no rest ;he scarcely
gives up the onerous duties that devolve upon him
during the session before he undertakes all sorts of
new engagements, and enters upon tasks that in-
volve great fatigue both physically and mentally.
No one can accuse him of being an idle Minister,
for he is ever ready to fulfil any of the duties that
by common consent and courtesy devolve upon a
Minister, and these, too, he performs in a genial
manner that doubles the favour. He also enters
upon them with a spirit and bonhommie that im-
parts a zest to the affair; this expedition to Brad.
ford has not been an exception to the general rule
in this respect, for universal satisfaction appears to
have prevailed throughout the whole course of the
proceedings. In fact, Lord PALMERSTON seemed
to be in his right element, as the chief Minister of
State rendering a tribute of respect, and doing
honour to the foundation of an Exchange. It was
a good idea of the Corporation of Bradford
and the Chamber of Commerce to endeavour
to make the occasion memorable by in-
viting so distinguished a personage to pre•
side at their ceremonies. The simplicity of the
proceedings were more in. keeping with the nature
of the affair than had they been more compact or
extravagant, and it appears that good sense and
gcod taste alike prevailed in the various arrange-
ments. The address presented to Lord PALMER.
STON at the site ,)f the Exchange was a very affec-
tionate one, and full y explained the requirements of
vie case. The spread of trade and the increase of
population in Bradford has been great, and it is an
encouraging proof of the flourishing state of the
country when we hear such statements as those
put forth in the communication to Lord PALMER.

the supplies which in past days were sufficient, and
certainly there Was sufficient reason for the erection

flourishing manufacturing towns, the centres of
industry and the theatres of traffic. It was men-
tioned that the trade of the borough of Bradford was
never better than at present; " the vast capital that
is employed connects it with the prosperity of the
farmer at home and the distant colonist, with every
sheepfold, however remote, and every shepherd in
every clime; its ambition is to trace its trophies in
every household, to wrap them round the inmates
of its houses." Lord PALMERSTON, in his appropriate
answer, emphatically declared that they had that
day laid the foundation of a temple of peace. There
seems no cause to doubt that the hopes expressed
by the noble founder will be disappointed, and all
must join with him in trusting that the ceremony
thus inaugurating the erection of the edifice may
be the "harbinger of future greatness and increas-
ing prosperity to that industrious and increasing
town," The great event was over when the foun-
dation stone was laid, bat other interesting affairs
took place, giving opportunities for the expression
of opinion and the interchange of good feeling and
kindly sentiment. Both at the banquet and the
presentation of addresses at the Great Hall, unani-
mity prevailed, and the general feeling seemed to
be one of gratification at the course of the day's
proceedings. There was no opposition to the address,
which expressed the pleasure afforded by this visit
of the Premier, and trusted that he might long live
in the enjoyment of intellectual and bodily vigour,
to take a part in the councils of the nation. This
was as it should be, for an occasion like this is not the
time for any discordant sentiments to be uttered, but
still in mixed assemblies it is difficult at all times
to obtain the due decorum in such matters, and to
inculcate the propriety of reticence of opinion,
therefore it may be regarded as an additional suc-
cess to this Bradford ceremonial that so unanimous
a tone prevailed, and perfect concord reigned para-
mount during the prolongation of the proceedings.
Lord PALMERSTON made a happy allusion to the
advantages that Englishmen derived from their
Constitution. He said that in other countries those
who have the charge of affairs were prevented from
meeting their fellow•countrymen as he had done
that day. This was a good thought, because it
greatly explains the vast superiority of this country
in all matters of enterprise, for no undertakings can
be brought to perfection if the promoters and origi-
nators are fettered and trammelled by the arbitrary
regulations of the Government, and the undue in-
terference of authorities. It is the want of free ex-
pression which checks progress and stays prosperity
in many lands that might else be flourishing. AL
enlightened Statesmen, and men who take a right
estimate of their position and its duties and respon-
sibilities, will concur in the expression of Lord
PALMERSTON when he said, "It is a great and
heartfelt satisfaction to be able to meet as I have
done to-day the people of England, to see their
faces, and show one's own." The noble lord truly
called Bradford a type of the English character, as
it had exhibited perseverance, industry, enterprise,
judgment, and courage in pursuing that which had
been undertaken. Altogether it way be considered
that this ceremonial has been a very successful one,
and the carrying out of the attempt has reflected
honour alike on the visitor and the entertainers,
betides being a trophy of the great things wrought
by industry and enterprise.

The address of King CIIIIISTIAN to the Rigsdag
can hardly be read without feelings of regret and
mortification in this country. It presents us with
the mournful spectacle of a loyal and determined
people struggling vainly, not for aggression, not
for conquest, but simply for the preservation of their
old national possession. According to a form of
our law a tenure of any property for more than two
hundred years bars any objection to the right of
possession; but the Danes have held the Duchies
tor double that time. It is a mere platitude to say
that if all States were compelled to resume their
status at the middle of the fifteenth century,
one at least of Prussia's persecutors would have
very certain cause to regret it. Yet this brave
and resolute people, staunch in their loyalty, their
patriotism, and their self-devotion, have been, from
sheer force of opposing numbers and superior sup-
plies of the equipments of war, compelled to sur-
render to the aggressors the full sum of their
outrageous demands. The conduct of the Qerman
Powers, more especially of Pr assia, presents another
view of the question, whic:n is no less irritating and
unsatisfactory. While it is impossible for English-
men not to feel a painful degree of humiliation in
reflecting that this country, with all the appliances
which wealth, freedom, and ingenuity can place at
her disposal, with a formidable army and navy for
active service, and a voice which should carry weight
in the councils of Europe, has been powerless to
prevent such dire misfortunes from befalling her
weaker ally. In fact, ,he has not only been power-
less to prevent them., she has been actually instru-
mental in briugirag them upon her, and Denmark
robbed, despoiled, and oppressed, her rights de.
treaded, her dominions curtailed, her defenders
slaughtered, her peaceable inhabitants ruthlessly
plundered and maltreated, and her resources
crippled, presents to the world an im-
pressive example of the benefits to be de-
rived from following England's advice and rely-
ing upon English promises. If any Englishman
were present in the saloon of the Folkething, at
noonday on the 6th of August, some such reflections
must have arisen in his mind. It was a mournful
occasion; and when the KING, the Crown Prince,
and Ministers entered, it was difficult to imagine
the authorities of any European nation, still pos•
sensing the rank and semblance of a State, assem-
bling under more melancholy auspices. According
to the Danish constitution, the members of a newly
elected Rigsdag (or Legislative Assembly for the
kingdom alone), must be convoked within two
months of the general election. It was therefore
supposed that the meeting lest week was a mere
matter of form, but unexpected interest and im-
portance was imparted to it by the presence of the
KING and by his brief address. After reminding
them that the newly opened session would be im-
mediately closed, King CHRISTIAN briefly told his
people that, notwithstanding the courage and en-
durance shown on every occasion by the -naval
and military defenders of Denmark, and,
indeed, manifested by the whole nation,
who have cheerfully responded to every call
for sacrifice, the fate of war would neverthe•
less compel him to submit to the heaviest and most
grievous concessions. "For," said the Daaish
Monarch, in words that breathe a deep reproach
to all free and powerful nations, "as all Europe
leaves us without assistance, we have seen ourselves
forced to yield to numbers." So, then, the law of
might is henceforth to be the rule which governs
Europe. Farewell to the hopes of Venetia, of
Hungary, of Poland—farewell to all resistance to
tyranny and aggression if backed by superior

•
strength. The lesson thus taught to the unscrupu-
lous and the powerful is one that Europe will yet
have to mourn over through long years of conten•
Lion and disaster. Such seeds do not bear fruit at
once. The life of nations is unlike the life of indi-
viduals, but as surely as such political crimes are
committed and are tolerated, if not sanctioned, the
hour of retribution comes. But what matter, cry
our materialists, so long as trade and commerce
flourish, so long as our wares are in demand and
our manufactories thriving, what matter about such
empty words as nationality and freedom. We are
not going to war for an idea. So the Danish king-
dom is dismembered under overwhelming odds, and
the English world goes quietly on its accustomed
way, taking for its motto, "Apres nzoi le deluge."
HOLMAN HUNT'S PICTURES.

The After Glow" and "London Bridge."
These two wonderful pictures, by one of the most
gifted of living artists—the "London Bridge,"
picture, simply remarkable to our mind as a curio-
sity, "The After Glow in Egypt," a marvel of the
beautiful as well as of the extraordinary—are still
on view at the New Gallery, 16, Hanover-street,
Regent-street, and are yet likely to remain there
upon view for two or three months longer. The
genuine London scene, commemorative of the Night
of the Marriage of the Prince and Princess of
Wales, is, in its way, a pictorial pheno-
menon. It excites one's astonishment, but
fails altogether—at any rate, we may speak
thus for ourselves—it Lila altogether to afford
one any seas° of real pleasure. Not so the
grander, nobler work from the hand of the same
rare colourist. " The After Glow in Egypt" takes
rank immediately after "The Finding of the
Saviour in the Temple," as among Mr. Holman
Hunt's masterpieces. Of itself it is an instant and
triumphant attestation of the genius of the Painter,
not only as a great master among colourists, but
intensely and essentially as an Artist—as a Poet.
The picture itself is like the realisation
visibly of a dream of Poetry. It was in obedi-
ence to the true thought and feeling of a poet that
Mr Holman Hunt selected the subject of this picture,
the season of it, the hour of it, one might almost
say the very moment of it. For, is it not during the
evanescent "After Glow'' of an Egyptian sunset—
that after glow that divides by a luminous haze of
10 minutes' duration the light of day from the dark-
ness of night—is it not during those fest fleeting
moments that he has here in this wonderful picture
revealed to view, the Egyptian maiden standing on
the banks of the river Nile, bearing upon her head
a golden sheaf of ripe corn and scarlet poppies,
raising aloft in her right hand the green glazed
ghooleh or water-bottle, while the Barbary pigeons
cluster about her feet pecking the grain, one of the
more adventurous of them selecting the unahaked
corn from the sheaf itself, close to which the bird is
flattering all but audibly, half clinging with its
talons, half hovering upon the wing ? Those who
have not yet seen this marvellous painting should
on no account omit doing so before the time arrives
for its removal from the Gallery. The visitor will
be yet further rewarded for his attendance there by
seeing in the apartment containing the " London
Bridge" commemorative picture of Mr. Hunt, the
very masterly and pathetic painting by Mr R. B.
Martineau of " The Last Day in the Old Home," a
picture that tells its tale as distinctly and as im-
pressively, and as completely in its way, as any one
of our great Hogarth's masterpieces.

W.EfALLEY THE WISE,

(From Punch.)
Mr G. H. Whalley has lost no time in giving an accor,lt
of his Parliamentary Stewardship to the intelligent el:,,tors
of Peterborough, who do themselves so much ho,:iour, and
so thoroughly vindicate their title to the frar.ciso,
turning that determined enemy of Popery. We re by re-
gret we
r
can find room only for a portion of his ble
address to
his constituents. admirable
Mr Whalley, after a sketch of the past session, and refer-
ences to his introduction of protest against the Church of
Rome on the Third RerAting of every Railway Bill and
other domestic meas-ares, proceeded : " I shall continue
this course. I ar.n asked what Popery has to do
with railways ? I answer, Everything, I know that nearly
every stationmaster is a Jesuit in disguise, and some day
when there is a Roman Catholic rebellion, and troops are
wanted, the lines will be blocked, and probably collisions
will be arranged for the destruction of the Queen's
soldiers. The Jesuits are everywhere, Do you know
why the Nelson Column is not complete ? Be-
cause Popery obstructs homage to the victor of
Roman Catholic fleets, and Sir Edwin Landseer has been
convertiA (Cheers.) Do year know that the Lord Cb.-4n..
cellor of England, in utter defiance of the law flat the
keeper of the Queen's conscience shall have no popish
'leanings, has favoured the interests of 3:ra Yelverton ?
Why? Because that lady is a Catholic. (Sensation.) Do
you know that the Queen of Spain :ins ordered a statue `..0
Columbus ? Why ? Because ftie Emperor of the French
1 has founded a new Catholic ~mpire in America, and that
in ten years Federals and Confederates will lie at the feet
of the Pope. Gentlerlten, I have often felt the pangs of
conscience at representing a borough called after St. Peter,
and I do wish you would change the name of your town.
(Cheers.) Are you aware that in the heart of London, in
front of the most magnificent railway terminus -we have, is
risin'g a beau, iful and costly copy of an Zleanor's Cross,
tte superstitious monument erected by a popish king ? Do
you know that the conductor of tb.e music at our noblest
opera house (visited I am e,rry to say by the Heir
to the Throne) is M. costa, a Catholic, and that
he has got a disper,sation for leading the Hugue-
nots and the Na eonal Anthem ? Have you heard
that Earl Russell., the pretended enemy of Popery, is going
to bring in a for restoring to his relative's property its
old popish name of Convent Garden ? You knew, gentle-
menei, Qat the London general Omnibus Company was a
forgn specul, 'out do you know that all the conduc-
tors are Jesuit priests, that they charge half fares to pas-
sengers who cross themselves, and misdirect to Catholic
chapels those who inquire their way to Protestant places of
worship. (Shame.) Yes, gentlemen, and can you hear
with patience that a Catholic'tract Society has obtained
leave from Mr Panizzi, of the British Museum, to insert a
tract in every volume of the library ? Does Mr Panizzi's
name remind you of England or of Italy ? Was there a
word, gentlemen, in the Queen's Speech last week to re-
mind us that the Sovereign is a Protestant ? Not one.
But the Queen was made to go out of her way to express
satisfaction that she is on good terms with the
Emperor of China, Who cares for the Emperor
of China in himself ? But what so- called Chris-
tian religionists have had for hundreds of years the
greatest sway in the Chinese Empire—who have been tole-
rated when Protestants have been excluded ? Why, the
Jesuits. (Cheers.) Again, do you note that it is made
matter of boast that the French and English are drawing
into closer alliance, Catholic with Protestant ? (Cheers.)
Ay, you sheer, but that is not all. Who is our friend's
friend? Who, at this moment of the increased amity is
about to visit theTuileries. The King of Spain. Does that
anti-Protestant bigot come,for nothing P.Will.Lord Cowley
see him ? We live in awful and perilous times, gentle-
men. I know for a fact that there were hundreds of
Catholics among the Riflemen at Wimbledon, and that if
one of them had been the beat marksman of the meeting,
Lady Elcho would have unhesitatingly presented him with
the Queen's Priz?. (Sensation.) Yes, and how soon
would that silver vase have become the ornament of a
Popish mass-house ?It was providential that it fell to
1 1 Mr Wyatt, who is a Protestant, but no thanks to the
authorities. Why have passports just been so universally
abolished on the Continent ? In order to entrap English-
' men and Englishwomen into Catholic countries in order
to promote proselytism ? Why has the cross on St. Paul's
just been ostentatiouslyand splendidly regilt ? Look at that.
And why is a magnificent bridge being constructed, at vast
expense, at Blackfriars—and observe that Popish name,
gentlemen. Because Blackfriars-bridge will open a tempt-
ing and delightful road from mid 'London to Cardinal
Wiseman's Popish cathedral, St. George's. Lastly, gen-
tlemen, though I could give you a hundred similarly alarm-
ing c:enaonatrations, hear this. You have heard of Mr
Banting. His system is artfully promulgated all over the
country. It is pretended that he merely desires to reduce
the over-corpulent. Bah I He is a Jesuit priest, and his
object is to'introduce and make popular the Popish practice
of regular fasting, Yes, gentlemen, I repeat that we live
iu perilous times, and the Triple Crown, will soon domi-
nate the Three Kingdoms."
Mr Whalley sat down amidst loud cheers and passionate
cries of " No Popery!"

SUDDEN DEATH DURING A HONEYMOON.—A
terribly sudden death occurred on Sunday fortnight
to Mrs. Arthy, wife of Captain Arthy, whose maiden name
Was Miss Winatanley, and who had been married at
Beverley only on the previous Tuesday week, They re-
paired to Scarborough to spend a portion of the honeymoon,
and were residing at one of the hotels. On Sunday morn-
ing Captain Arthy awoke about his usual hour and found
his wife a corpse by his side. A coroner's inquest was held
the same evening, and a verdict of " Death from natural
causes" was returned.
