ROYAT, FREE HOSPITAL, Grav's-inn.road,
in th immeltate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at King's-cross.

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of IMCCLEUCTI K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
ponied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. Tt requires but the
funds in order to have 50n beds available for flue reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously aflords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than :I,olio out-patients a wetlc.

THE POLICE FORCE.

Mr. KEKEINICII asked the Secretary to the Treasury
whether the sum voted by Parliament for the police force
in counties and boroughs was calculated on the net ex-
penditure, after deducting the amount of the superannua-
tion fund, rent, fines, and stoppages ; and, if so, for what
reason the Government objected to repay one-fourth of the
whole amount expended for the pay and clothing F
Mr. F. PEEL explained the principle pursued in this
matter. A deputation had attended the Treasury, with
respect to the statements which were now under consi-
deration.

Court, and likewise to the power of dismissing the
registrar and assistant-registrar conferred upon them.
The right hon. gentleman went into a Most minute exami-
nation of the plan according to which registration was to
be effected, and pronouncing it dangerous, illusory, and
impracticable, called upon the house to reject it. The
right hon. gentleman then referrel at some length to the
injury that might arise from an erroneous registration of
the name of the townland in which mortgaged property
was situated. The mortgagee would lose all his money
and the attorney might be ill-A for misdemeanour, and no
remedy whatever was provided. Considering that in Ire-
land there were many towns of the same name (in one in-
stance 13), such mist„kes were very likely to occur.

The Volunteer Review at Oxford,

An important gathering of the volunteers of the
midland counties, &c., numbering in all about 7,500
men, took place in Port Meadow, Oxford, yesterday,
under the command of Major-Gen. R. Rumley. At
an early hour Oxford was all alive with volunteers
and country visitors. The parade was set down to
take place at two o'clock, shortly after which hour
the artillery andbrigade of infantry took their posi-
tions in front of a very commodious stand erected
for the occasion by Mr. Castle, of Oxford.
As the various corps marched past the stand they
were more or less applauded, the Oxfordshire corps,
as was natural, receiving the greatest share. The
Bristol men were the next in demand, and, although
it may be invidious to particularise, we cannot re-
frain from bestowing upon them a word of praise
for the regularity of their movements. The Duke
of Manchester's band were the observed of all ob-
servers, their, high-bred chargers also being the sub-
jects of general admiration. After repassing the
stand in double-quick time the various corps moved
off for the purpose of carrying out a sham fight, but
the spectators, who had previously shown bad taste
in not keeping clear lines, scattered themselves in
all direceons, and with the aid of the smoke from
the rifles and the artillery, rendered it impossible to
discern any of the military evolutions. After firing
and manoeuvring for nearly an hour and a half, the
burgesses returned to the front of the stand and
formed into squares for the resistance of cavalry,
which concluded the day's perfoimance.
This sight was a great recompense for the loss of
the other portions of the review, which, on the whole,
was exceedingly successful. The number of spec-
tators was estimated at over 50,000, many o
whom
had come from distant parts of the county, the van
ens railway companies having run excursions for
the occasion.

THE FRENCH ELECTIONS.

M. de Persigny is good enough to let the public
know what he thinks of the elections. The semi-
official papers this evening publish the following
circular, which his excellency has addressed to the
prefects :

' Paris, June 21.

" M. le Prefet,—After having received and ana-
lysed your reports, and those of. your colleagues, on
the late elections, and taken due note of the order
and fairness with which the electoral operations
have been conducted, as also the perfect freedom
with which candidates of every description have
been able to come forward, I am happy to have to
congratulate you on the zeal which you, your sub-
prefets, mayors, and other subalterns have displayed
in your efforts to enlighten the populations as to the
choice they were called on to make. With the ex-
ception of incidents which may have given rise to
protests on one or the other side, the peaceable man-
ner in which the elections have been accomplished,
does the more honour to the country as they have
been hotly contested.
"For the first time during the last 10 years the
opinions more or less connected with previous Go-
vernments have formed a coalition. On a few points,
and especially in the great centres of population,
generally more easily impressed by the excitations
of the press, that coalition has succeeded in taking
universal suffrage unawares ; but the immense
majority of the country has responded to the ap-
peal by the Government, and has left the coalition
but a few names to console it for its defeat.
"The election, however, will have considerable
influence on the future of the country. When the
li
Emperor was raised to the throne, amid the accla-
mations of a whole people, arriving alone at the
summit of power, he had no party of his own, but
by a few points was connected with all the panics
existing in the country. Some considered him as
the representative of order—others as the embodi-
ment of unity of power; some looked upon him as
the principle of authority—others as a wise liberty;
for the greater number his accession wasthetri-
umph of democracy—for all, the dignity of France
abroad.

Out of all these various elements was formed
what may be called the party of the Government,
whether in the aggregate of the agents of public
authority, from the ministers down to the humblest
functionaries, or in the constituted bodies, the
Chambers, the councils general, and the municipali •
ties. Thus composed, the general organization of
the country was deficient in homogeneity, and it is
natural that, according to circumstances, and until
they had been amalgamated by time, these various
elements should betray some trace of their origin.

Mr. C. BENIINCK asked 'he First' Commissioner of
Works to explain the circumstances under which the Wel-
lington funeral car, wicker work horses, trappings, &c., is
exhibited to the public sixpence a head, 'by the vergers in
St. Paul's Cathedral.
Mr. COWPER said he believed that the vergers were
allowed to take 6d. a head from persons going down into
the crypt. Whether the dean and chapter were right in
allowing that he could not say. Persons could not go into
the crypt without a verger, and there were no cathedral
funds out of which those officials could be paid,
Mr. OSBORNE said that if this was a work of great
genius it would be a rare opportunity for the Brorepton
boilers.

General PEEL rose to call attention to the expenses of

it was very evident why the EMPEROR,
guided in this by his better judgment, not only
accepted the resignation of a bungling Minister

like the Count DE. PERSIGNY, but retained the
services of a master of Finance like M. FOIJLD,
and of a master of Diplomacy like M. DRODYN DE
L'HuYs. Surveying the whole result of the Mi-
nisterial changes that have just now taken place
at Paris, Le Pays contents itself with enumerating
—evidently with an air not expressive of one mo-
mentary regret in the past, but of satisfaction in
the present, and of confidence in the future—the
actual list of the French Ministry as it now
stands, viz., as follows :
M. BILLAULT, Minister of State.
M. DRoUYN DE L'HuYs, Foreign Affairs.
M. BAROCHE, Justice.

M. BOUDET, Interior.
M. ACHILLE FOULD, Finances.
M. DIIRIIY, Instruction.

M. BEHIC, Agriculture, Commerce and Public Works
Count CHASSELOUP• LAUBAT, Marine.

Marshal RANDON, War.
M. ROUHER, President of the Council of State.

Marshal VAILLANT, Imperial Household.

It may be vexatious for the time being
to know little or nothing about M. BOUDET, for
example, but at any rate it must be matter of general
gratulatien among the Parisian electors, and
among the members of our own profession through.
out France, that M. DE PEnSIGNY is no longer in-
stalled at the Ministry of the Interior, there to pen
anymore dictatorial circulars to the Constituencies,
or any more warnings (in the name of the Liberty
of the Press !) to the Journalists.

FLA TEAU

This was an action to recover 2s. 10d. under circum-
stances of considerable importance to persons receiving re-
turned goods. It appeared that defendant sent a parcel of
boots to a customer in Maidstone named Marchmont, and
Marchmont, after examining them, refused to accept them
from the plaintiff, but returned them to defendant. The
goods were taken to defendant's warehouse, and he, after
the delivery, refused to pay more than ls. 6d., the carriage
from Maidstone.

Defendant pointed out to-day that the sum in dispute
was but ls, 4d., but he did not see why he should be called
upon to pay this, because it was not his debt. Mr. March-
mont had opened the package, or he could not have told
whether the goods were equal to the sample. If Mr.
Marchmont chose to open the package, it was clear he was
liable to pay the carriage.
A person who appeared for the company said that the
consignee at Maidstone refused to receive the goods, and
directed the company to take them back to defendant. The
company's carrier told defendant that there was carriage to
pay, and defendant said he would pay it.
His Honour—The company have a lien upon the goods,
and they are entitled to hold them until they are satisfied.
You (defendant) have received the parcel with all its liabi•
lities, and if you have any claim for the Is. 4d. it is rather
against your customer at Maidstone than plaintiffs, who are
entitled to a verdict, with costs.
Verdict for plaintiffs.

DUEL BETWEEN M. RATTAZZI AND M. MING-
HETTI.—A Turin letter of June 21, in the Opirdin
Nationale, gives the following account of this duel, which
was incorrectly reported to have been stopped by the inter-
ference of the King :—" M. Minghetti, notwithstanding
the explanations made in the Chamber yesterday by M.
Sella, having declared that he could not retract the words,
' It is false, most false,' which he uttered in reply to as-
sertions of M. Rattazzi, a meeting became inevitable. Yes-
terday evening at eight o'clock, M. Tecchio and General
Malenchini, seconds chosen by M. Rattazzi, waited upon
M. Minghetti's friends, Gen. Cialdini and Prince Simonetta.
The latter, having the choice of arms, decided that the duel
should be fought with cavalry sabres. M. Rattazzi, who had
never had a sabre in his hand in his life took two fencing
lessons with that arm in the course of the day. M.
Minghetti was nearly as unskilled as his adversary. At
five o'clock this morning MM. Tecchio and Malenchini,
Dr. Spir;no, and M. Rattazzi went to Stupingi. the place
chosen for the rencontre. They found MM. Cialdini,
Simonetta, and Minghetti already on the ground. The two
first passes produced no result, M. Rattazzi seemed to fight
with desperation, while NI. Minghetti appeared more anxious
to defend himself than to attack. At the third assault Ni.
Rattazzi was slightly wounded in the right arm, a little be-
low the shoulder. Notwithstanding this wound he continued
to fight, but after the fourth assault Gen, Cialdini and the
ether seconds put an end to the contest. It does not appear
that MM. Minghetti and Rattazzi were reconciled after their
duel."

The Milan Gazette states that two remarkable
frescos have just been discovered in the church of St. Satiro
in that city. One of them is the work of Borgognonce,
and the other appears to have been painted by Guardi.
