CRYSTAL PALACE.

The Dramatic College Fete is always one of the
great events of the year at the Crystal Palace. ,This
season the ladies and gentlemen of the corps dra-
matique have set to work with a hearty good will
to amuse their patrons.
Foremost among the amusements will be the
Fancy Fair," for which nearly forty ladies, the
leading members of the dramatic profession, will
hold stalls. The Fair will be opened at 12 o'clock
to-morrow by proclamation of the Herald, Mr. F.
Romer.

The great concert room at the Palace 'will be en-
closed and fitted up as a Theatre, with scenery and
appointments. In it will be played what is humour-
ously described as a" New Sensation Drama in the
style of Old Bartholomew Fair," alternately with a
new Burlesque by Mr. H. J. Byron,. entitled The
Rosebud of Stingingnettle Farm, or the villainous
Squire and the virtuous Villager," (being
as domes-
an hour.)
tic a drama as can be done in a quarter of
Aunt Sally will be kept by Mr- Bu.ckstone, and
other celebrated artistes;
Poses PlaStlqUeS (newly
James Rogers, of
and beautifully attired) by Mr.
the Strand Theatre; a Photograph.p h.io establish-
ment (by an entirely novel and ,opnal„process)
will be at full work by Mr. Toole and. Mr. Paul
ill be opened under
the direction of an
Bedford ; a Cirque Olynipique w
experienced manager ;
a Royal
Punch and Judy will be under the care of " Little
Clarke," of the Haymarket ; and as the programme
up by stating generally thatbesides windsthe pre_
ceding
there will be an endless variety of enter-
tainments, it is pretty clear the public will have no
reason to regret encouraging, by their presence,
the efforts of the ladies and gentlemen of the dra-
matic profession to establish their excellent charity
at Woking on a lasting foundation.
Thefete will be continued on thelollowing Mon
day, when the admission will be as usual, one shil-
ling.

On the following Wednesday Blondin will give
a performance on the high rope in the centre tran-
sept, and will, for this occasion, perform some of
his most extraordinary feats, among them that of
taking luncheon on the rope, carrying with him his
chair and table. lOn Friday he will make an ascent
over the Fountains.

The entire series of great Fountains will be
played on Tuesday and Thursday.
The Annual Drawing for the Prizes of the Art
Union is fixed: for the 31st July. It is Understood
that the Council intend bringing forward on this
occasion some new and charming original works by
the most distinguished artists. Among the presen-
tation works Monti's Bride, Copeland's Arabesque
Vase, Miller's Evangeline, and the Cupid Basket,
continue to be the rage.

At the half-yearly meeting of the St. Katharine
Dock Company to-day—Mr- S. W. Cater in the
chair—the account of receipts and expenditure of
the company for the half-year, ending the 30th
June last, showed that the gross earnings were
£127,623 4s. 7d. ; the expenditure, including inte-
rest, £98,351 95., making the net earnings amount
to £29,271 158. 7d. A dividend of per cent.
(free of income tar) upon the capital stock
was recommended, payable on and after the 25th
instant. The rest amounted to £68,177 18s. 9d.
The company's premises and merchandise depo-
sited in them, were insured at the the lowest
rate appreciable to such property, the nego-
tiations of the directors to obtain a modifi-
cation of the scale of premiums published last
August, having been satisfactorily concluded. The
chairman statad that while the expenses had de-
creased, the rates upon goods landed, &e., had also
been greatly reduced, which very materially
affected the property of the company. The direc-
torsw were in negotiation with the other dock com-
panies, with a view to raise the rates, which were
at too low a sum to enable a good dividend to be
realised. The report was agreed to.
Mr. Laurie, late M.P. for Barnstaple, and one
of the directors of the oyal Academy of Music, intends to
offer annually two silver prize medals to the two most pro-
ficient students in vocal music, the examination to be taken

from our agent at Cork :

" CORK, JULY is.

" The Glasgow has arrived. Her departure was
delayed for an hour to receive a telegraphic des-
patch from Baltimore, dated July 3:—

" "BALTIMORE, JULY 3.

I" A communication from Fortress Monroe, of
the 2d inst., states that Generals Gorman and
Meade had arrived there, wounded.
They state that the divisions of General
M'Call and General Reynolds have surrendered
to the Conferederate forces.
" ' General M'Clellan was on board the Galena.
" General Jackson was in the rear of the Fede-
ral army, and Pricein front of it.

" General lee refuses, on the part of the Con-
federates, to grant any terms of capitulation, and
demands from the Federal troops an unconditional
surrender.

" ' These details are given from the statement of
the wounded General Gorman.

" ' The Federal flags have been taken down from

THE BALLOON COMMITTEE OF THE

BRITISH ASSOCIATION.

It will be remembered that on the 22d of March
the balloon committee of the British Association
resumed the attempts they had made some time
before to ascend from Wolverhampton to make
certain meteorological observations in the upper
strata of the atmosphere. Two failures took place
Mr. Glaishcr and Dr. Lee came again from London
to Wolverhampton on Monday afternoon, but uo
favourable opportunity could be found till yester-
day (Thursday) morning. On that day the work
of inflating the monster balloon commenced at about
half-past five in the morning, and ceased at nine,
by which hour 66,000 cubic feet of gas had been
thrown in.

Lord Wrottesley and the Hon. Arthur Wrottes-
ley were at this time upon the ground, in addition
to Mr. Glaisher and Dr. Lee. A large number Of
the inhabitants of the town were also present. The
leading objects sought to be obtained are first to
ascertain the law of the decrease of temperature ill
proportion to elevation, and second to determine
the distribution of moisture throughout the atmos-
phere. By half-past nine the car had been attached-
At 9.43 the vast machine was liberated, and ascended
right majestically under the guidance of Mr. Cox-
well, amid the warmest plaudits of the specta-
tors. Mr. Glaisher seemed even more composed
than the aeronaut himself, and having politely and
characteristically acknowledged the farewells
of Lord Wrottesley and others, at once applied
himself to the preliminary work of arranging his
instruments; and this he was observed doing as
long as he could be observed. The man of science
sped on his aerial voyage at about 30 miles an hour
in a direction E.N.E. At 9.56 he had sailed beyond
the reach of all observation, even with a telescne.
Mr: Glaisher contemplated remaining up six
hours, and of descending twice before he made his
final ascent to the desired maximum altitude of five
miles. By this means he would be able to make ex-
periments that would be a check upon each preced-
ing series, and consequently increase their value.
The direction, however, in which the wind was
blowing would render the carrying out of this in-
tention somewhat difficult.

WOLVERHAMPTON, TEIIIRSDAY EVENING.

Mr. Glaisher has descended, and retrhrned here.
He reports that at the highest altitude, he attained
he found the temperature was 14 ; Vile air was very
dry, and the electricity positive.
London, England, 1862-07-18

FRANCE.

The steam transport Moselle, Captain Ravel,
which was to have sailed to-morrow evening for
Vera Cruz, has received pressing orders, which
oblige her to anticipate her departure by 24 hours.
She will sail this evening, with 1,400 tons of pro-
visions of every kind for the Mexican expedition-
ary corps, which will thus receive, by this single
ship, the enormous quantity of 280,000 rations,
—enough to provision an army of 7,000 men during
40 days.
Strict orders have been at the same time received
in the port to push on by all possible means—work-
ing, if necessary, day and night—the preparations
of the Mayenne, which is to be enabled to sail at
the same moment with the rest of the fleet. This
vessel will enter the basin to-morrow, and will be
ready in less than eight days.

The Hotel de la Paix was opened on Tuesday.
Two days previously several families had arrived,
and, owing to their pressing entreaties, were taken
in. A dinner was given on Tuesday by the Corn-
pagnie Immobilier to about 300 persons—financial,
industrial, artistic, &c. The dining-room, which is
richly ornamented, is pronounced by competent
persons to be a very handsome one. The archi-
tectural beauty of this room when lit up by a
thousand gaslights were seen to great effect. The
dinner is reported to have been excellent, and the
attendance to have left nothing to be desired. The
band of the Cuirassiers of the Guard played while
the guests were at table.

LIBERATION OF MR. FLEMING, AND

COMMITTAL OF MRS. M.LACHLAN.

The result of the consultation with the Solicitor-
General last night has been received this morning
by Mr. Sheriff Strathern. Old Mr. Fleming has
been set at liberty ; and Mrs. M'Lachlan, the
female prisoner, has been committed for trial on a
charge of murder and theft.

VIE SERIOUS CASE OF TVIIOLESALE
POISONING.

A SECOND CHARGE
PRISONER PREFERRED AGAINST
TH
Last evening, Constance Wilson alias Catherine
Taylor, who stand charged with having caused the
death of Mrs. Ann Atkinson, the wife of a respect-
able tradesman, by the administration of poison an
the month of October, 1860, was again placed at
the bar before the Hon. G. C. Norton, on a second
charge of having in the month of October, 1856,
also caused the death of Mrs. Mary Soames, a re-
spectable widow lady, then residing at 27, Alfred-
street, Tottenham-court-road, by the administration
of poison.
Mr. Chipperfield, as before, appeared for the
prosecution, and Mr. Neale for the defence, and the
court during the investigation was much crowded.
OPENING OF THE SECOND CHARGE.
Mr. Chipperfield said that, on behalf of Mr. Barnes,
the brother of Mrs. Soames, who died in the year
1856, he had to open a second charge against the
prisoner. The late Mrs. Soames was the widow of
a pianoforte maker, residing at 27, Alfred-street,
Bedford-square. She was a highly-respectable
person, and lived independent upon some property
which had been left her by her late husband, but
the house being too large for her family she let out
part of it. The prisoner occupied the first floor,
unfurnished, and had done so for twelve months
preceding the death, having come there in Novem-
ber, 1855. The deceased lady was of an extremely
amiable and kind disposition, not suspecting wrong
in anybody ; and it would seem that the prisoner
had been enabled to get on very friendly terms
with her, and by imposing and fixing her wiles
upon her had succeeded in borrowing various sums
of money from her. It would appear that on Wed-
nesday, the 15th of October, the deceased, who
scarcely ever suffered from illness, and was then in
exceedingly good health, went to the residence of
Mr. Barnes, a draper, at Holloway, and asked him
for the loan of £lO, and obtained from him the
loan of £9. Shia returned home, and partook of tea
with her daughters and Miss Roe, who had been
with her nearly six years, and was like a member
of her own family. He should call Miss Roe as a
witness, and she would prove that after they had
partaken
of tea, and late in the evening, the Pri-
soner cawsdown, and invited Mrs. Soatnes, the
deceased, to take supper with her. The deoa,so:
went up to the prisoner'6 apartment, and Mi j"'
and one of the deceased's daughters left the house,

ITALY.

A Turin letter, in the Nord, says :—" The Italian
Government intends giving a special brilliancy to
the mission which is to proceed to St. Petersburg
to notify the constitution of the kingdom of Italy.
Gen. Cialdini, who it appears is decidedly to be
charged with the office, will be accompanied by a
suite of high political and aristocratic notabilities.
Without seeking indications too far, it may still be
permitted to consider as significant the choice of
the conqueror of Castlefidardo and Gaeta for the
mission which he is called on to fill towards the
Russian Government. In Italy, it is not the
Government alone which takes into account the
extreme importance of the recognition by Russia,
for as far as the extremities of the Peninsula the
importance of that event has penetrated. After
Bologna, Reggio, and Rome itself, the towns of
Sicily have been illuminating in honour of that
circumstance."

The Opinione, the Gazette, and the Espero, all
Turin journal?, were seized on the 14th for having
published the speech delivered by Gen. Garibaldi
to the National Guard of Palermo, at which the
prefect and general in command of that force were
present.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

MIDNIGHT MARAIIPERS.—James Anderson and George
Roberts, two ill-looking fellows, who gave an address near
Seven-dials, were charged by Sergeant Gordon, 288, with
loitering in Charles-street, Haymarket, for the purpose of
committing a felony.
Sergeant Gordon said that while in company with Shil-
lingford, A 325, both being in plain clothes, they observed
the prisoners loitering in Charles-street, Haymarket, and
suspecting they were otit for an unlawful purpose watched
them, and saw them E 0 into different doorways. The pri-
soners then left and went into the Haymarket, Pall-mall
East, as far as Waterloo House, crossed over to Spring-
gardens, went to Charing-cross, then back to the Hay-
market. From the latter place they made their
way to Leicester-square and Chandos-street, every
now and then stopping to reconnoitre and talk.
Determined not to give the prisoners a chance
of escaping by means of the courts in the neigh-
bourhood of Bedfordbnry: the officers who had watched
them most perseveringly seized them, and asked them
what they were at, aid why they had visited so many
different places. when Anderson replied, "We haven't
been there to, night." They were then taken into custody,
and on them a knife and lucifer matches were found.
In answer to Mr. linos, Gordon said he had known
Anderson for a long time as companion of the worst
thieves, and Roberts formerly used to be with thieved, but
he had lost sight of hint fir years past.
Roberts said it was no ;use asking the officer any ques-
tions, as he was a young man from the country, knew
nothing of Loudon, and of course didn't know the names of
the streets.

Anderson said the officer had told such a long story that
he had quite forgotten the name .of the street the officer
first started with.

Shillingford, 325 A, corroborated Gordon.
Mr. Knox remanded the prisoners, ordering them to be
well locked up by the officers.

MARKETS-THIS DAY.

141 ARK LANE.

The supply of EngliAh wheat on sale hero to-day was
very small. Although the trade was somewhat inactive,
nearly the whole was ditposed of, at about Monday's cur-
rency.

The show of foreign wheat was somewhat extensive. In
most descriptions a iooderate retail business was trans-
acted, at previous quotations.

In floating cargoes of grain a moderate business was
passing, on former terms.

_
Barley moved off less freely ; nevertheless, good and fine
qualities were steady as to prices.
The malt trade was tolerably firm, and the transactions
in most quotations were to a fair average extent.
Oats were in good demand, and their value was well
maintained.

Beans and peas realised extreme rates, and the small
supply on offer changed hands freely.
Flour met a steady sale, at fully previous currencies.

MEXICO.

The Patrie states that its last letters from the city
of Mexico describe the population as very excited.
The authorities have endeavoured to obtain the sig-
natures of the foreign residents to a declaration that
they had not been subjected to annoyances of any
kind from the Government of President Juarez.
The greater number of foreigners have refused to
sign any declaration to this effect, as it is entirely
opposed to the truth. The same measure was to
be resorted to in the cities of Puebla and Gua-
naxuato. The foreign residents in Puebla are very
numerous, especially the French. Juarez, it is
added, by this expedient is endeavouring to deceive
Europe.

The same journal has letters from Vera Cruz to
the 15th of June. At that date the steamer Mas-
sena, the steam corvette Berthollet, and the hos-
pital transport Amazone were at the Island of
Sacrificios ; the despatch boat Marceau and the
Sevres transport were at anchor off Vera Cruz.
The other ships of war of the naval division were
cruising on the coast, or ordered to the Antilles on
service. An attack on Vera Cruz by the Mexicans
was expected, and on the 14th the French had
made a reconnaissance in the neighbourhood of the
town, but none of the enemy's force was discovered.
The Patric contradicts the report that 10 soldiers
of the French escort to the convoy that left Orizaba
on the Bth of June had been burned alive by the
Mexicans, into whose hands they fell as prisoners.
The now Minister of the Kingdom of Italy, at
Constantinople, has received instructions to protest
against any Conference relative to the affairs of the
Principalities in which he is not admitted to take
part.

The Dowager-Queon of Naples has arrived at
Marseilles, and proceeded immediately to Zurich.

CIRCASSIA.

A letter from Soukum-Kale, under date of the
20th, states have just learnt that a column
of 4,000 Russians has been surprised by moun-
taineers in the defile of Dekuako, in Abaseh, near
Schiaguaschia ; the former were utterly routed,
and nearly all destroyed. A large supply of mu-
nitions and several pieces of cannon fell into the
hands of the mountaineers. Nothing could have
been more opportune, as supplies are much wanted
and will prove most useful. A.deputati on of all
the tribes, consisting of Kiortan Oglou, Ismail Ef-
fendi, Osman Effendi, Shiek Ismail, Ismail Bey,
Braki-Zade, Hadji Hassan Effendi, Hassan Effendi,
and others will shortly leave for Constantinople,
and from thence proceed to Paris and London to
present a memorandum to the respective Govern-
ments, urging: European Powers to induce Russia
to terminate the war against the Circassians—a
people whose country has not been conquered, and
a war which is pursued in a manner which is at
once an outrage on humanity and a violation of the
law of nations.

THE BALLOON COMMIT7EE OP Till

ASSOCVTIC4N.

It will be remembered that on the 22d of March
the balloon committee of the British Association
resumed the attempts they had made some time
before to ascend from Wolverhampton to :Lake
certain meteorological observations in the upper
strata of the atmosphere. Two failures took place
Mr. Glaisher amd Dr. Lee came again from London
to Wolverhampton on Monday afternoon, but ve
favourable opportunity could be found till yester-
day (Thursdo.y) morning. On that day the work
of inflating the monster balloon commenced at about
half-past five in the morning, and ceased at nine,
by which hour 66,000 cubic feet of gas had been
thrown in.

Lord Wrottesley and the Hon. Arthur Wrottes-
ley were at this time upon the ground, in addition
to Mr. Glaisher and Dr. Le,,!. A large number of
the inhabitants of the town were also present. The
leading objects sought to be obtained are first to
ascertain the law of the decrease of temperature in
proportion to elevation, and second to determine
the distribution of moisture throughout the atmos-
phere. By half-past nine the car had been attached.
At 9.43 the vast machine was liberated, and ascended
right majestically under the guidance of Mr. Cox-
well, amid the warmest plaudits of the specta-
tors. Mr. Glaisher seemed even more composed
than the aeronaut himself, and having politely and
characteristically acknowledged the farewells
of Lord Wrottesley and others, at once applied
himself to the preliminary work of arranging his
instruments; and this he was observed doing as
long as he could be observed. The man of science
sped on his aerial voyage at about 30 miles an hour
in a direction E.N.E. At 9.56 he had sailed beyond
the reach of all observation, even with a telescope-
Mr. Glaisher contemplated remaining up sot
hours, and of descending twice before he made his
final ascent to the desired maximum altitude of five
mil.a. By thi. means he would be able to make ex-
periments that would be a check upon each preced-
ing series, and consequently increase their value.
The direction, however, in which the wind was
blowing would render the carrying out of this in-
tention somewhat difficult.
WOLVERHAMPTON, THURSDAY EVENING,

Mr. Glaisher has descended, and returned hero.
He reports that at the highest altitude he attained
he found the temperature was 14 ; the air was very
dry, and the electricity positive.

THE SUN.
LONDON, THURSDAY, MAY 15, 1862.

The sporting world may find compensation for
the loss of the Hop Duty in betting on Church
rate Divisions. The winner, both this year and
last year has got, it not by half a neck but by half
a nose. So, till a general election comes to put an
end to this even running, a fairer betting subject
can hardly be imagined. Clever indeed must

when 573 persons vote, can
the calculation which,
tell which side shall have 286 and which 287. One
thing is
very certain—an agitation which com-
mends such a vote, will never be given up till its
object i 3 attained. 'Were the minority much less
than one vote on a question of religious liberty and
equality, it is absurd to suppose that feeling enough
will not always exist on the wronged side, to keep
up the attack on the oppressing party.
According to the representations of its friends
last night the Church of England should be in a
very pitiable condition. If her existence as an
Established Church be really bound up w ith Church-
rates, she may well tremble to think that the House
of Commons is so equally diviied on the subject of
their abolition. To be sure she can give thanks,
—to whom we will not say—that there is a House
of Lords. But the House of Lords is not a support
to bo relied on forever. Moreover, exception may
soon begin again to be taken to a certain class of
lords—Lord Bishops, voting continually on subjects
in which they have a personal and selfish interest,
while their opponents are wholly unrepresented
in the same House. It comes too near to the case
of a magistrate adjudicating in a matter in which
he has a pecuniary interest. The only comfort
which those who think Church-rates so bound up
with the safety of the Church can find, must be in
turning round and believing with the whole, pro-
bably of the 286, that their abolition would
be a blessing to the Church, not an injury.
That certainly is the opinion of every man,who has
not a mere party object to serve, or who has not
wholly fallen behind the spirit of the age.
The truth is the voting on this question has, on
one side at least, become a purely party affair. The
question no longer is whether the Church of Eng-
land can dispense with Church-rates, and be richer
for their loss, but whether the Right Hon. BENJA-
31IN DISRAELI cat use it as one of his stepping
stones to office. It is, he says, now a political ques-

LATEST NEWS:

PARIS, MAY 15.
The Moniteur, in its bulletin of this morning,

says :

According to the news from Mexico to the 11th
ultimo, via Havannah, the allied Plenipotentiaries
had not been able to come to a common under-

standing.
General Prim had announced his resolution to
re-embark his troops, and had sent for the neces-
sary transports to Cuba. Marshal Serrano, Captain-
General of Cuba, after having taken the advice of
the civil and military authorities of Havannah, did
not consider himself justified in acceding to this
demand, and invited General Gassett to return to
Mexico, and take the command of the Spanish
troops, should General Prim persist in his determi-
nation to return.

The French troops were to repass Chiquihuite on
the 20th of April, in order to commence hostilities
immediately.

CASSEL, MAY 15.

The official Kasseler Zeitung of to-day announces
:hat the Electoral Government has made a declara-

tion to the Federal, justifying the late ordinance
respecting the elections. The Government further
stated that the wish of the Federal Diet that the
elections should be stopped could not be complied
with, on account of the constitutional duties of the
Elector.

and the :new thoroughfare runs right up to the

cation, as was now proposed, at great expense dia-
gonally, and thereby avoiding the demolition and
removal of a number of new warehouses and offices
recently erected. The committee, after a rec-exa-
mination of the Lord Mayor, adjourned to this day.
