WEST INDIA AND PACIFIC MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, Friday.

The Royal Mail Steam Company's ship Atrato,
Captain Woolley, with the above mails, arrived this
afternoon at four p.m. She brings 245 passengers,
specie value £222,861 sterling, of which amount
£113,204 is gold bullion, £6,925 gold coin, £84,192
silver bullion, £17,900 silver coin, £5BO pearls, and
£6O in diamonds.

Dates by this arrival are from Honduras, May 6;
Grey Town, 18th ; Colon, 23d ; Jamaica, 25th ;

tigua, 27th ; St. Kitts, 28th; and St. Thomas, 29th.
Her Majesty's ships of war Phaeton and Grey-
hound arrived at St. Thomas on the 29th. The
only Federal ship of war remaining at St. Thomas
when the Atrato left was the Alabama.

The news from Jacmel reports another revolu-

tionary attempt in Hayti, made by one General
Arnie Legras, but which was promptly put down,
without disturbing to any extent the tranquillity of
the country.

Intelligence from Guatemala states that Carrera
had made no further demonstration against Salva-
dor. In the latter state a great deal of dissatis-
faction prevailed, caused by President Barrios's
invasion of Nicaragua, in aid of the rebel Jerez,
who had been completely routed by President Mar-
tinez. After the defeat of Jerez the Nicaraguan
Government again obtained possession of the boats,
storehouses, and other property of the Transit

Company.
The Pacific Steam Navigation Company's ship
Bogota arrived at 'Panama on the 22d, with dates
from Valparaiso to the 3d; Caldera, sth ; Cobijo,
7th ; Arica, Bth ; Chinchas, 11th ; Callao, 13th ;
Payta, 16th. Previous to her arrival at Payta the
Bogota passed the outward mail steamer Peru, with
the English mails, bound for the south.
CHILE.—In general business dulness again pre-
vails. The same applies to shipping business.
Charters are wanted. Several vessels could be
taken up for ores to Liverpool or Swansea,

Continent, £3 15s. to £4. Exchange continues at

PERU.—The new administration have most ener-
getically taken up the liberal policy inaugurated
by the late lamented San Roman. The British
claim for the imprisonment of a British subject of

the name of Melville White is on the eve of
amicable arrangement. Postal reform has been re-
ceiving the attention of the Postmaster-General.
A new and reduced tariff has been promulgated for
Peruvian internal or coast communication. Ex-

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, June 12.

Mr. E. W. Verner is again canvassing the electors
of Lisburn, confining his attention at present to
those who voted for him at the last election. The
Northern TVhig states that they will not all support
him now, and that some of them have positively
refused to vote for him in the impending contest,
solely on the ground of dissatisfaction about the late
petition. In the meantime the " independent
electors" are earnestly requested, in a placard, to
keep themselves disengaged, as a gentleman worthy
to represent the borough will immediately appear as
a candidate. Among the Liberal candidates spoken
of are Mr. J. J. Richardson, Sir J. M. Higgir.son,
Mr. Charley, and Mr. Robert Barbour, brother of
the late member. Whoever may be the candidate,
the Liberals are determined to fight the battle over
again and to poll the last man. They allege that
bribery was practised on the other side as freely as
on theirs, and that if there were no bribery their
men would be sure to win.
Mr. Thomas O'Connell, election auditor for the
county and borough of Tralee, has made application
to all the candidates who had addressed the electors
for the borough of Tralee for his fee of £lO. Mr.
O'Connell claims to be entitled to this fee by the
34th section of the 20th and 21st of Vic., c. 102. The
3d section of the 20th and 21st of Vic., c. 87, defines
the candidates to be " all persons elected to serve in
Parliament at such election, or who shall have de-
clared themselves candidates tor such election, on or
after the issuing of such writ, or after the vacancy
takes place." If he succeeds, there will not be so
many orators getting themselves nominated for the
purpose of making speeches. That would be pay-
ing rather too much for the pleasure.
Yesterday a marriage occurred in Clontari church
which is regarded with interest by the Protestant
public as a very suitable one. The bridegroom is
the Rev. W. Cuningham Plunket, nephew to Lord
Plunket and heir to the peerage ; and the bride is
the only daughter of Mr. Benjamin Lee Guinness,
head of the firm of that name, and so wealthy
that he can afford to spend more than £lOO,OOO in
restoring St. Patrick's Cathedral.
The West Cork Railway is giving employment to
hundreds of idle men, with distressed families, about
Bandon ; but they have already struck, and beat
the steward unmercifully, because he did not do
what was not in his power to do—namely, raise
their wages from Bs. a week to 10s. a week.
The funeral of the late Mr. Jackson, of Nenagh,
which occurred on Monday last, was attended by
large numbers of the gentry and repectable farmers,
but there was a remarkable absence of the peasantry.
The Nenagh Guardian states that " the expansive

lawn which fronts the house was covered with the
largest collection of vehicles it ever had on any
similar occasion. The remains were deposited in
Ballymackey churchyard, the burial-place for cen-
turies of the Jacksons. The rector, the Rev. Mr.
Going, read the burial service. He made some im-
pressive remarks on the murder, and exhorted his
hearers to pray that' whoever sheds man's blood,
by man may his blood be shed,'—by which of course
he meant that the murderer of Mr. Jackson might
be brought to justice.
The South Dublin Board of Guardians have
agreed almost unanimously to have separate places

tants. ' The number of Protestants in the house is

VESSEL OVERHAULED BY A. CONFEDERATE
CRUISER.—The Callao, arrived at Antwerp, states that the
Kate Dyer was overhauled by the Confederate cruiser Lap-
wing on the Bth of May, and compelled to give a ransom
bond for 40,000 dole. The Lapwing was a prize to the
Confederate steamer Florida, and transformed into a con-
federate cruiser.

Her Majesty at the Exhibition Building.

Yesterday her Majesty saw for the first time the
interior of the Exhibition building, which she had
expressed her intention of visiting on Tuesday last
when at the Horticultural Gardens to see the Pricce
Consort's Memorial. The visit was not a private
one in the strict sense of the term, neither was it
public, for the contractors, with much good taste,
declined to give orders of admission to any visitors
beyond the Ministers and noblemen who were to
receive her Majesty under the western dome. Some
ladies and gentlemen, however, who were aware of
the visit came into the building from the Horticul-
tural Gardens, and assembled, in the west galleries
to the number of about 100 or so; but this was all.
Under the west dome, waiting to receive her
Majesty, were Lord Granville with his brother Com-
missioners for 1862, Sir Wentworth Dilke, Mr.
Thomas Baring, M.P., Mr. T. Fairbairn, and their
secretary and assistant-secretary, Sir Francis Sand-
ford and Mr. Lindon. There were also present the
Duke of Buccleuch, Lord Derby, Lord Torrington,
Lord and Lady Portman, Lord Overstone, Mr. Di-
sraeli, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Robert Low, Mr. Henry
Cole, Mr. Redgrave, Mr. John Kelk, and Messrs.
Charles and Thomas Lucas, Captain Fowke, Mr.
Crace, and Mr. Edgar Bowring.
The morning was very dull and cloudy, and the
building was filled with rather a misty vapour; but
just before her Majesty arrived the sun shone out
bright and clear, and Eghted up all the nave and
side courts in the most effective manner. Precisely,
to the very minute of the time indicated, her Ma-
jesty arrived, accompanied by •their Royal High-
nesses the Princesses Helena and Beatrice. Her
Majesty wore, of course, deep widow's mourning,
but looked remarkably well in health, and during
her walk through the building,and especially when
speaking to the noblemen and gentlemen who were
presented to her, her face wore mach of its old well-
known look of calm pleasure and satisfaction.
Lord Granville with Lord Derby and the Duke
of Buccleuch received her Majesty upon alighting
from her carriage, and accompanied her, with the
Princesses, to the platform under the Western
Dome, where the party remained some time while
the Queen surveyed the building, and while Lord
Granville pointed out where the most important
divisions of classes during the late Exhibition had
been made. Her Majesty appeared especially struck
with the length and fine proportions of the
great central hall which forms the Nave, across
which the sun was shining with such brightness as
to show off its long vista and effective colouring to
the best advantage. The one or two little objects
which had been left in the side courts were just suffi-
cient to assist the eye in estimating the great extent
of a building which encloses 16 acres of ground tin-
der its roof. After a few minutes had been passed
in this survey the noblemen and gentlemen con-
nected with the late Exhibition who had assembled
to meet her Majesty were called forward in turn,
and for all and each of them as they advanced the
Queen had a few words of kind and gracious praise
for their past labours. Messrs. Kelk and Lucas
were congratulated on having raised so fine and
large a building in so short a time, and Mr. Crace on
the very successful manner in which he had deco.
rated it. Mr. Gladstone was honoured with a longer
conference than any other gentleman. After this
her Majesty traversed the whole length of the build-
ing to the Eastern Dome, stopping once to again
survey the interior. Under the Eastern Dome only
u short pause was made, when her Majesty ascended
to the gallery beneath the clock, and remained here
for some time looking down the Nave—the best
position from which the interior can be seen. From
here the Royal party proceeded through the Eng-
lish portion of the Picture Galleries, where Mr.
Redgrave and Captain Fowke were complimented
by the Queen on the effective appearance and
admirable lighting and proportions of the gal-
leries. Her Majesty then passed down the stair-
case leading to the Cromwell-road, and so ou across
the building into the Horticultural Gardens,
having spent nearly an hour in examining the in-
,erior.

As various statements have been made with re-
gard to the sum expended by the contractors on
the building, and the amount they received in pay-
ment from the commissioners, it may not be out of
place to state here what the report of the Commis-
sionersmake public, that the total
eost
of completingwill in a f few days

tire structure and annexes

was £363,000. For this building the Commissioners

abnouanad tfbuermthseerlvseusnitoot p.
xaynteh,eoocoonitfratchteorbsuit3ionog,owoaos,
definitively purchased, out of whatever surplus re-
ceipts there might remain. They were so far from
having a surplus, however, that the Commissioners
were only able to pay the contractors £234,000 out
of their £300,000, leaving £66,000 still due to them.
But their exchequer was not able to afford even this
,000, for when the accouuts
part payment of £234
were definitively closed up there was found to be a
deficit of £15,000, which Mr. Kelk, in the most
liberal manner, met by handing his check to the Corn •
missioners for that amount. It may appear strange
that only £BO,OOO is asked for a building that cost
£363,000 but a twelvemonth ago; but it must be
recollected that the terms of their contract oblige
Messrs. Kelk and Lucas to pull down and remove
the entire building if it is not purchased, and that
at present they are actually under notice to do so,
when it would have to be sold as old materials. The
estimate of the Government surveyors is that the
materials in the building when pulled down and sold
as second-hand would be worth £78,000, and this,
with £2,000 for the gas and other fittings, is
exactly the sum which the Government have offered
to give for the building, and so release the contrac-
tors from the trouble of taking it down. This is not
a liberal bargain for the Government to make after
the spirit displayed by the contractors in relinquish-
ing their claim to a sum like £66,000, and after-
wards giving the Commissioners the money to
cover their deficiency ; but no doubt Mr. Glad-
stone felt that in making a bargain for the nation
he was bound to bring down the price to the lowest
level, by leaving the contractors no choice but that
of taking down the building and selling it as old
materials, or selling it to the country for the same
sum as it stands. For the land, which the Commis-
sioners of 1851 offer to sell to the Government for
£lOO,OOO, as much as £275,000 was offered by a
private firm a short time since ; but of course the
Commissioners could not listen to this offer, as their
charter of incorporation binds them to reserve the
land always, either for purposes connected with
future exhibitions, or as sites for museums for the
advancement of science and art.

SUITORS CONCILIATION.--Lord Brougham has
laid before the House of Lords a bill declaring it lawful for
the County Court judges to decide any disputes or arrange
any differences which persons may be willing to refer to
their amicable decision and adjustment. The submission
would be in writing, and the parties would be bound by the
judge's decision.
FEDERAL ARMY FEELING.—A soldier in the
Federal army of the Potomac, formerly a resident
in Montreal, has sent to that city a letter giving his account
of the recent battles won at Fredericksburg. He says of
them—" Altogether, this last series of battles was a most
singular affair, and I believe if our generals and officers had
supported the general commanding, we should have gained
a glorious victory for the Union. But there is something
rotten in the state of Denmark' with regard to us, many of
our officer s not being at all anxious to endanger their pre-
cious lives, or put themselves in a situation which would
prevent their drawing the monthly supply of greenbacks.
Another drawback existed as regards the two years men,
who were not inclined to fight in earnest, for various rea-
sons satisfactory perhaps to themselves. In tact, there is
scarcely any of the troops so inclined to fight. There has
been too much shuffling and humbugging with this army
in the way of making and unmaking generals, regardless of
the wishes of the army and the interests of the country ;
and the suppression of the rebellion is felt to be beyond
human accomplishment. Time was when it could easily
have been done, had M'Clellan been supported by the War
Department wbce before Richmond, and I believe the war
would now have been over. But at present there is not
much prospect of its turaination,"
