Mr. Disraeli on the Royal Marriage.

A county meeting of the gentry and inhabitants of Buck-
inghamshire, convened by the High Sheriff, Mr. P. C.
Love t, was held yesterday in the County-hall, Aylesbury.
The High Sheriff presided, and was supported by the Lord
Lieutenant (Lord Carington), Hon. Wm. Cavendish, M.P.,
Sir Harry Verney, M.P , Mr. Bernard, M.P., Rev. Sir H.
Faults, Sir T. F. Fremantle, and a large number of the
magistrates of the county.

The HIGH SHERIFF having briefly stated the object of
the meeting, which was to adopt addresses of congratulation
to the Queen and the Prince of Wales, on the occasion of
the marriage of his royal highness,
Lord CARINGTON (the Lord-Lieutenant) moved the
adoption of addressee to her Majesty and the Prince, ex-
pressive of loyalty to the royal family, and congratulations
on the auspicious event.

Mr. DISRAELI, M.P., in seconding the proposition, said— '
I have great pleasure, however unexpectedly, in seconding
the motion made by the Lord-Lieutenant. The relations
between the royal family of this country and the people are
not relations of form—they are relations of feeling ; and .
that feeling, which is deep and universal, has been occa-
sioned by a conviction—now prevalent for many years in
this country—that to the temperate wisdom with which the
high functions of the throne have been administered in
England we owe much of the happiness and much of the
prosperity we enjoy. Under any circumstances, any public
incident tending to the happiness of her Majesty would be,
lam sure, interesting to her subjects. But that event
which has called us together to-day is one which, while
it must engage her feelings more than almost anything
we can imagine that could now occur, is almost equally
interesting to the whole of this nation. The marriage
of the heir to the throne is an event which must exercise a
great influence on the fortunes of this country, and it is
a matter for congratulation that we know enough of the
Princ- of Wales to inspire confidence in his character
and conduct. That confidence is based on two circum -
stances—first, his natut al aisposition, and secondly, his edu-
cation. What we know of his natural disposition, as truly
and eloquently described by the Lord-Lieuteuant, gives us
every confidence that he will not disappoint the just expec-
tations of the country. He has given evidence of an
amiable and engaging character, while at the same time hie
education has been worthy of his position. It was
devised and planned by one of the wisest and
best men that ever fhiuri.hed in England. Although young,
his experience has not been slight. He has seen much of
many countries, of various classes of society, and, by his
natural intelligence he has acquired valuable experience.
Under these circumstances, thus born and thus bred, dea-
-1 tined to the highest responsibilities, he has early in life
clAcided on the event which is the most important in the

life of every man, Generally speaking, when young princes,
the heirs to great thrones, are married, their marriages
ire advised and planned by others, and often are influ-
enced by feelings which certainly do not spring from the
affections. But in this case it is a subject for great
Dingratulation that the marriage of his Royal Highness is
one to which he has been prompted entirely by his own
feelings, and we have every expectation that it is choice
which.will secure his happiness, He has had early in life
the wisdom to decide on possessing a happy home, and a
happy home for a Prince is the best security for the happi-
neSs of his subjects. I have, therefore, great pleasure in
supporting the address which has been moved by the Lord-
Lieutenant, which, I think, properly expresses the tradi-
tional loyalty of this ancient county. (Cheers.)
A vete of thanks to the High Sheriff, moved by Lord
CARINGTON and seconded by Sir H. -V.II,NEY, closed the
proceedings.

A Paris letter, in the Nouveliiste of Rouen, says :
—" I am informed that the Minister of State has
authorised representations at the Theatre-Francais and the
Theatre-Lyrique for the benefit of the wounded Poles.
Nltue. Viardot, who is about to retire from the stage and
take up her residence at Baden, will appear at the Theatre-
Lyrique for the last time in one of those representations,"
several journals state that the new Pacha of
Egypt has just fixed at 1,500,000 fr. per month the
sum to be paid to the Isthmus of Suez company until
300 fr. per share on the 200,000 shares subscribed for by his
predecessor shall have been up. In consequence of this
arrangement the company, it is said, will be enabled to con-
tinue its works for two years without making a call on the
shareholders.

low, M.A., F.R.S., vice-president, in the chair—Mr. Leve-
.on Francis Vernon Harcourt, 8.A., Mr. William Harvey,

The Duke of Cambridge, attended by Sir Richard
Airey, Colonel Bingham, and Colonel Jervoise, em-
barked from the Southampton Docks yesterday morning at
810 on board the Fire Queen steam yacht, Capt. Paul, to
Inspect the works and fortifications about the coast. The
Duke arrived at Southampton last night, and slept at the
Dolphin Hotel. A tio3, al salute was fired by her Majesty's -
ohip Dauntless as the yacht passed down the river.
" The British inhabitants of Leghorn,"
.says a
communication from that place, " were not less
loyal than their neighbours on the occasion of the Prince of
Wales's marriage, as there was a dinner in honour of the
,ccasion at the Cafe Corradini, in the Piazza-Grande, at
which, in the unavoidable absence of the Consul, Mr. Vice-
Consul Macbean presided. The fine band of the Grena-
diers was in attendance."

WHO ARE THOSE WHO GO CRAZY P—Some time
ige I sxnmined the statistics of a lunatic asylum
.n Massachusetts (says a writer in the 11 ew York I bse, ver),
and- I was astonished to find that the largest number of
vases come from the very last class of people to which one
would have looked for the insane. The class was of young
farmers' wives I And the report stated very distinctly the
cause 3 of this remarkable fact young women take upon
themselves the care of housekeeping, with the toils of farm
life added, and those of a family too; unable to keep ►a
"help," and ambitious to be smart, and keep up appear-
ances, they worry or fret themselves to death or insanity.
there is a good lesson to be learned from this startling fact,
Lay it to heart, young women, and especially young mo-
thers. And not only lay it to heart, but lay it up in your
heads, too. The moral of it is : "Don't worry ; don't over-
work; don't try to do everything at once, and all alone,
tuo; don't think that the world will some to an end, or that
your folks will be ruined, if this little thing is not done to-
night; but take things quietly, patiently, hopefully; always
be in haste, but never in a hurry , do one thing at a time,
and do it well, and then, attempt the next, and take no
thought for the morrow—' sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof.'" Life is too precious to be wasted in idleness or
destroyed by worrying. Activity, energy, industry, and
perseverance are all virtues and graces to be cultivated as
aidispensalle to success. But these graces are not incon-
sistent with a calm and equable frame of mind, that meets
the sterner duties of life with faith and hope, bears adversity
with resignation, and is not overcome with prosperity, and.
has learned in whatever state the lot is cast, therewith to
be content. I have known such people, and love to
write their names with a gold pen among the Lord's
blessed ones. They are not your easy, good-for-
nothing, care-for-nothing people, who have settled it in
their minds that the world owes them a living, and they
are not to trouble themselves about getting it. Such de-
serve little sympathy and never command respect, even if
they receive kindness. But the people whose life is a per-
petual sunshine, and whose home is an earnest of another
and still better rest, are they who pursue life's work with
diligence and delight, always busy with something useful,
and never obtruding their trials on others, but contentedly
taking their lot, fulfilling their mission, making the home
circle cheerful with their smiles, and never, never sadden-
ing even a child's heart with a harsh word or a frown;
these are the blessed souls who have rest and peace and
comfort, even in this vale of tears, -this world of care, and
this time of war. They glow old gracefully l Time
touches them tenderly I No frowns stereotype themselves
prematurely into wrinkles on their brows, Their hearts
are always young, and grey hairs, when they come, are a
crown.

During the performances of Crockett, the lion-
tamer, at the Cirque Napo!eon, three nights back,
an accident occurred which caused some excitement among
the spectators. Crockett, having made one of the largest
lions lie down, had stepped on his back, but his foot
slipped towards the neck. The lion, probably being hurt,
gave a savage growl, and seized the foot with his teeth, all
present expecting to sea the animal crush it between ita
powerful jaws. Crockett, however, did not lose his pre-
sence 01 mind, but by a word and a blow with his whip
mad- the lion loose his hold. He then went on with his
performance as usual.

GREAT NORTHERN HOSPITAL, KINGS'-CROSS.—
Number of patients for the week ending April 4, 1,021;
of which 419 were new cases.

According to the report just presented at the
general meeting of shareholders of the Omnibus Company
of l'aris, it appears that those carriages in 1862 conveyed
82,000,000 passengers.

It would seem that the Turks are insensible to
the charms of pantomone, for Deboreau, the famous clown,
who went to Constantinople to establish a theatre there for
that kind of perlortnance, has abandoned the design, and
retut ned to Faris.
