The Reception of Garibaldi,

A crowded meeting of the General Committee of
Trade and Friendly Society Delegates, forming the
Working Men's Garibaldi Demonstration and Tes-
timonial Committee, was held last night at the
Whittington Ciub, Strand. About 200 delegates
were present; Mr. G. Odgers occupied the chair.
The deputation, who had visited Southampton to
invite Garibaldi to meet the working men of the
metropolis, then reported the result of their mis-
sion. After some difficulty they had succeeded in
obtaining an interview with Garibaldi at the house
of the Mayor of Southampton, when he expressed
his strong desire to meet the working men of Lon-
don and his great pleasure at receiving a deputation
from them. He said it had been arranged he should
proceed on Saturday next, on a visit to the Duke of
Sutherland at London, where he should probably
have the pleasure of meeting his friends of the
working classes. The deputation expressed their
decided opinion that Garibaldi was being worked
upon by sinister influences to isolate himself as much
as possible from the people, and especially from the
working classes. They had come to tnis opinion
from seeing the gross intriguing and manoeuvring
going on among the persons surrounding him at
Southampton, and trusted the London committees
would not allow themselves to be played with. They
thought that Mr. Seely, M.P., who had been at the
expense of bringing Garibaldi and suite to this
country, had been most scurvily treated. They had
reported the result of their observations to the City
Committee, who had that day taken effectual steps
to remove Garibaldi from the trammels with se hich
an attempt had been made to encompass him. The
result of this movement would be communicated to
the London committees this morning by telegram.
The deputation concluded by stating they bad
been received during their three days' stay ar
Southampton in the most c.)urteous manner by the
Mayor and the municipal authorities. The Secre-
tary stated that, as at present. arranged, 0
would arrive at t ne Nice Elms Station no SAurcley
next, about three o'clock, but the result of a tele-
gram expected at London tnis day, might fix
Nlonday, at the same hour of the day. It would
be well, l'owever, to be prepared for the earlier
day ; but both the City Committee and this com
mittee were working for Monday. The ground at
the station had been marked out by the sub come
mittee, in conjunction with the railway authori
ties, and a temporary platform would be erected on
which Garibaldi would receive the various ad-
dreeses, to which ceremony previous to the pro
cession, the public would be adtr itted by ticke+s
only. A lull programme of the whole proceedings
would be published on Thursday morning, by which
time the day of arrival would be definitely fixed.

GARIBALDI IN THE ISLE OF WIGIII%
BROOKE, ISLE OF WIGHT, l uesday Morning.

We took a private road, and avoided villages in
our 15 miles, drive from Cowes to Brooke. Now
and then a middy found us out, and rode frantically
past us and back again to catch a sight. of the Gene-
ral. The electric chain of intelligence was snapped
after leaving Cowes: few people were aware of
Garibaldi's presence. At three places tae clergymen
were watching for the carriage, and uncovered as it
pissed. Near Brooke, dairymaids began to scamper
out and labourers to rush up,and the General always
returned the saki, es of the labourers. Scarcely
a dozen persons stood at the gates at Brooke
Tne hour of his arrival was unknown. At every
point people were driving down lanes, and rushing
on foot, too late to see the illustrious visitor. Great
disappointment is expressed that Mr. Seely did not
elect to take the General through the villages.
Some men had travelled 17 miles to catch sight of
him, and arrived ton late, as he came in at Brooke
earlier than was expected. No doubt Mr. Seely
thought the quieter way would best suit his guest,
but Garibaldi likes to see the people and is happily
strong enough to bear it.
Riceiotti amused himself on the way pointing out
the primroses and violets on the banks, and con-
trasted the Isle of Wight with Yorkshire, which he
remembers.

Mr. Seely's house, with its stone portico and half
ivy .covcred wails, looking part mansion part church
stands on a pleasant spot, bounded by chalk eliffs„
and overlooking at the back the broad sea the Ge
neral loves so well. Tne crows rose in the midst of
a great chorus vth,,.n the General drove dovrta to the
park. This was the only welcome the General got.
A young lady held open the gate for the carriage
to pass; her pretty race was the only one visible.
The weather has been shocking to-day at Brooke.
Menotti anti Iticciotti Garibaidi, and Basso.
visited Southamwra for a change; but the weather
was worse there.

Mr. Grant Duff, 11. P., joined the dinner party al
Mr. Seely's yesterday.
Tee Poet L tureate and Mrs. Tennyson arrived a
Brooke House this morning.
The General and Gueizont are busy to-day con,
•idering the invitations.

THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO.--The Moniteur of
yesterday says :--" The France is ill-informed when it an-
nounces that the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo was
celebrated last year in London, and that the French Am-
bassador was present at the banquet, given on that occasion.
For some 3 ears this anniversary has no longer been cele•
brated ; and, if this custom were maintained, need it be said
that the ambassador of France would not have taken part
in it,"

HER MAJESTY.

(From the Times.)
An erroneous idea seems generally to prevail, and
has latterly found frequent expression in the news-
pipers, that the Queen is about to resume the place
i❑ society which she occupied before her great e.fsie•

tion ; that is, that she is about again to hold levees
and driwing-rooms in person. and to appear as
before at Cuurt balls, concerts, &c. This idea cane
not be too explicitly contradicted.
The Q teen heartily appreciates the desire of her
subjects to see her, and whatever sh:: can do to
gratify them in this loyal atld affectionate wish she
will do. Whenever any real object is to be attained
by her appearing on public ccoasions, any national
interests to be promoted, or anything to be encou-
raged which is for the good of her people, her
Majesty will not shrink, as she has not shrunk,
from any personal sacrifice or exertion, however

painful.
But there are other and higher duties than those
of mere repre3entation which are now thrown upon
the Queen, alone and unassisted—duties which she
cannot neglect without injury to the public s.3rvice,
which weigh unceasingly upon her, overwhelming
her with work and anxiety.

The Queen has laboured conscientiously to die-
charge these duties till her health and strength,
already shaken by the utter and ever abiding
desolation which has taken the place of her former
happiness, have been seriously impaired.
To call upon her to undergo, in addition, the

fatigue of those mere State ceremonies which can
be equally well performed by other members of
her family is to ask her to run the risk cf entirely
disabling herself for the discharge of those othe
duties which cannot be neglected without seriou
injury to the public interests.
The Queen will, however, do what she can—in

the manner least trying to her health, strength
and spirits—to meet the loyal wishes of her sub-

jtcts, to afford that support and co intenance to
e,ociety, and to give th it encouragement to trade
which is desired of ben

Mere the Queen cannot do; and more the kind-
ness and good feeling of her people will surely not
exact from her.

ARCHITECTURAL EXHIBITION.—Last evening the
14th exhibition under the auspices of the Society of
Architects was opened at the rooms in Conduit-street,
Regent-street, when a conversazione took place, and a large
number of visitors were present to do honour to the occasion.
The premises being comodious and well-arranged for an
event of this nature, the company was enabled to pass
through the suite of rooms without the inconvenience frame
"overcrowding" which is too often experienced at assem-
blages of this description. The architectural designs ex-
hibited were very numerous, and were generally pro-
nounced to be an advance upon similar displays in
previous years. Amongst the most conspicuous objects of
attraction were a series of designs by Mr. Digby Wyatt
for the Opposed Albert memorial, some designs by Mr.
P. C. Hardwick for the same object, and a variety of
drawings by different artists for the Holborn Valley Im-
provement. But the exhibition was by no means limited
to architectural subjects, but was extended to the display
of various models, busts, and other works of practical art,
all of which argued much for the skill of the producers,
and the perseverance which has been exercised by the com-
mittee of management. In the course of the evening
several gentlemen addressed the company, and amongst-
them were Mr. Digby Wyatt, Mr. George Godwin, and
Mr. Lamb, each of whom congratulate the friends and
supporters of the institution upon the successful results of
their previous efforts, and expressing a strong hope that
they would allow the encouragement they had already re-
ceived to stimulate them to renewed exertions. All seemed
to concur in the opinion that the public only required to be
fully informed upon the nature of their operations to be in-
duced to give them increased support; and, according to the
statement of Mr. Digby Wyatt, the science of architecture
'sac made rapid strides during the e=istence of this society-
Not only was this the fact, but it was also gratifying to
know that artizans were now becoming so much better in-•
formed upon the subject that they were able to comprehend
a design from a comparatively crude sketch, wisereas
in
tormer times they required the assistance of an elaborate
finished picture, aided by reference to minute points of
technical detail. The general impression regarding the
conversazione appeared to be of a very favourable nature,
and it was hoped that the prosp.cts of the society may ill,'
bibs fresh vigour from the exhibition now inaugurated.
REPRESENTATION OF LANCASTER.-0a Monday
Mr W. J. Garnett issued an address, dated Cannes,
to the electors of this borough, informing them that he in'
tended to resign his seat at once. The new writ for the
election of a member to supply the vacancy, and which was
to have been applied for immediately Mr. Garnett had taken
usual steps to complete his resignation, is therefore daily
expected. The election will, in all probability, come eft at
the end of next week. It is rumoured that Mr. F. Somer•
vale Head, the last candidate who appeared, will retire be-
tore the contest, and leave the electors to choose between
Mr. Fenwick and Mr. Saunders, but this seems unlikely, to
the moderate principles of Mr. Head seem now to find more
,avour with the electors than it was originally believed they

AND

COMM" ,DIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK,
As the day for the payment of the dividends
approaches the hope becomes stronger that by the
liberation of a large amount of capital the general
discount market will rule easier. At present, how-
eler, the inquiry for monetary accommodation is
still large, snd very little alteration is perceptible
In the rates charged upon first-class bills, viz., 5-1
and 6 per cent.
In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon
there, was no alteration of importance.
The English and Foreign Credit Company has
l
been announced, with a capital of £2,000,000, half
61 which is to comprise the first issue, in shares
i5O each. The objects are' similar to those of
Other financial undertakings, viz., the granting of
i
°,ein° and obtaining concessions for railways and
ill'ner Public works, making advances upon securi-
ties, &C. The directors state that they have already
secured a large business, which will yield a good
return upon the capital it is proposed to employ.
Thei, share list of the Clyde Engineering and Iron
