EASTER EXHIBITIONS.
(From The Sun of la-4 Night.)
ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.
The visitors to the institution yesterday were
exceedingly numerous. Every part of its spacious
area—the Great Hall, galleries, and theatres—was
crowded ; and we suppose that not less than 3.000
persons enjoyed the treasures of science and art which
are presented to the curious of every class, the old
and the young, the learned and the untaught, in its
varied lectures and its replete and matchless collection
of mechanical, artistic, and natural wonders. The
principal novelties of the season now commenced are
—a splendid pair of the Gymnotus Electricus, or
Electrical Eel, and a most interesting course of
lectures upon " Animal Mechanism," by T. Rymer
Jones, Esq., F.R.S., the eminent Professor of Natural
History to King's College. To these we may add a
new series of very beautiful dissolving views, the
interest of which is greatly heightened by the intro-
duction of new and appropriate music, which does
the highest credit to the very able musical director
of the institution, Dr. Wallis, whose compositions and
performances have repeatedly been the subject of high
commendation in the columns of The Sun, as well as of
the other metropolitan journals, and on no occasion more
deservedly than on the present. Dr. Bachhoffner's
lectures on Armstrong's hydro-electric Machine
continue to form one of the most attractive features
of the day's entertainment; but we cannot help re-
peating our regret that this learned and eloquent pro-
fessor does not continue the whole year round his
charming lectures on astronomy, which, illustrated
by his admirable dissolving orrery, are by far the most
instructive and popular we ever heard upon the sub-
ject. The value of his discourses is enhanced as much
by the simplicity of his manner as by the clearness
and unstudied an
elegance of his diction. Ol,ohumoured friend, who submits his classica and, at
the same time, extremely merry countenance, to ex-
hibition in the Physioscope, adds very much, by the
rich and varied play of his expressive features, to the
amusement afforded by this curious invention of the
ingenious Secretary, Mr. Longbottom. Space will
not allow us to go into further detail of the match-
less variety of combined entertainment and instruc-
tion to be enjoyed in a day's promenade through the
wonders of the " Polytechnic ; ' but the public are
already so much influenced bvththe choicest eir attractiveness,
that all who have a zest for - possible
combination of the useful with the delightful, will
crowd to the Institution, without any need of our
exhortation to that purpose.

COLOSSEUM.

The doors of this splendid establishment were yes-
terday opened to the public at a reduced pr reward d-
rnission, and the new system appeared to beed
with deserved success, uwards of 1,000 visitors
having been present in the course of the day and
evening. The entertainments comprised the pano-
ramas of London, by night and day ; the exhibition
of sculpture, stalactite caverns, prize cartoons,
which have already accriired their meed of po-
pularity among the sight-seers from town and
country.
London, England, 1847-04-07

in the cooperage at six o'clock on the preceding night,
and that the spot where it was found by the police was
full 30 yards from where he had lett it.
Mr. Heritage, who appeared for the defence, addressed
the Magistrate on behalf of his client, and pointed out
the utter improbability of the son of a respectable
tradesman, of hitherto unimpeachable character, being
actuated by the felonious intention imputed to him in
this charge, which he was instructed to deny in the most
positive terms, and to declare that the prisoner had been
sent out on an errand by his moiler at the time in ques-
tion, and finding one of the prosecutors' gates acciden-
tally left open by the constable, had entered the pre-
mises for the purpose he had stated to the officer, and
been taken by the police as soon as he had got in. lie
should prove that the implements found upon the pri-
soner were the ordinary tools employed in his business,
and he had several witnesses in attendance who would
give him the highest character for steadiness and ho-
nesty.
The Learned Gentleman then called the prisoner's fa-
ther, and two tradesmen named Simonds and Harwood,
the former of whom stated that his son was at work in
the workshop when he left him on the preceding morn-
ing with similar tools to those produced, the two latter
deposed that his character for probity and good conduct
had been unimpeachable all the time they had known
him

The constable, however, swore that the prisoner could
not have obtained entrance to the premises in the acci-
dental manner his solicitor had stated, and that the ac-
cused had three times confessed to him that he had scaled
the gates in tle way he had described; and
Mr. ARNOLD, under these circumstances, considered
that the time and manner in which the prisoner had been
detected were so replete with suspicion, that it was his
duty to afford time for further inquiry, and, therefore,
ordered the accused to be brought up again next week
for that purpose; but expressed his willingness to accept
substantial bail for his future appearance, if it could be
procured.
The bail was shortly afterwards put in, and the pri-
soner thereupon liberated.

the decline. Of West India several parcels have been
received since Tuesday last, and heavy arrivals are near
at hand from all quarters. The stock of West India is
less than it was last season, but of East India is greater.
The home demand has been limited for all sorts of
Brandy, and exporters have ,operated- with caution,
prices are on the decline, and merchants appear
to be desirous to sell, as there are large orris'
als near at hand, and the stock here being
heavy. The consumption, is however, going on
satisfactorily, and exceeds that of former season.
Geneva has been in good demand for
_export, and 2s 7d
to 2s 8d are tho rates paid for ordinary export sort, but
the home demand has been limited at 2i 10d to 3s 3d
for fine. The price of Corn Spirits has fallen 9d, and it
is now lls per gallon for English.
SALTPETRE.—The home and export demand wee
limited for Rough by private contract and the rates paid
have been rather above those that existed previously.
Holders evince much firmness, and supply the market
sparingly.
Ou,s.—There has been little desire manifested by the
home trade to operate in Linseed Oil since this day week,,
few export orders have been executed; the crushers are
desirous to realise, and submitted to further reduced rates.
For forward delivery the operations are upon a small scale.
The consumption is, however, yet on the increase, and
far exceeds that of the previous season. Rape Seed Oil
has been in excellent request, and quotations range firm.
Holders of Cocoa Nut are asking 48s to 49s for good
and fine, and 45s tb 475. for low and middling.
but at these high rates exporters and the home
trade operate with caution, and some parcels have
arrived. That a fall in the value will take place shortly
an opinion exists. For Palm the home demand has been
good, and exporters have been induced to operate with
more freedom, but the stock being large, holders are
compelled to accept 37s for fine, and 30s to 36s for low
to good quality. The consumption continues on the
increase. There has been only a limited demand for Olive
Oil for home consumption or exportation; holders have
been more inclined to realise, and submitted to rather lower
rates, although there is a large stock here, and the con•
sumption is going on satisfactorily. The arrivals of Fish
Oils are upon a more extended scale, and the market
has been more freely supplied. Sperm has been in oc-
cellent request, and a further improvement in the value
took place.
TALLOW.—There is still a desire manifested on the
part of the holders of Russian to realize, and they. We
submitted to a reduction on former rates of 6d per'ort•
on the spot, still soap makers and chandlers have ope-
ratad with caution, and 49s 6d to 50s are the prices V.
ccepted for fine P.Y. Candle.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7, 184'

Never was Sovereign so tardily seconded duringl
an insurrectionary movement, as MARIA Di: GLoi
of Portugal. SALDANHA is waiting for an accessiontO
his forces! say his apologists ; SALDANUA tarries
by the banks of the Douro for the better organization
of his troops, and for the more deliberate considera-
tion of his aggressive plans ! SALDANHA is "biding
his time " for a more fitting opportunity ! SALDINUA
is doing this, that, and the other, for such and such
reasons, all very wise, sagacious, and provident !
Pshaw ! the arguments employed in palliation of
this very redoubtable, wise, sagacious, and provident
loyalist, are about as contemptible and valueless as a
" shotten herring." Why, a penny almanac is enough
to convict SALDANHA of incapacity ! The mere enu-
meration of the days, and weeks, and months that
have lagged on since the commencement of his mili-
tary operations are sufficient, in all conscience, to pro-
claim the insignificance either of his skill or
his detettnination, or his army, or his courage,
or maybe all of them together. From the
first outbreak against the Government of Lisbon, the
collowers of her Portuguese MAJESTY have insisted
that the insurrection has merely originated in the in-

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7, 1847.

Farewell—we trust a long farewell has been
taken by the Agrancesados to all their greatness in
the Spanish capital. Queen ISABELLA has given a
brilliant testimony of her disinclination to succumb
to the tyrannic influence of Louis PutmPrE or of his
truckling Minister. Queen ISABELLA has done
more—she has evinced a capacity in ridding her
councils of unpatriotic interlopers beyond what could
have been at all anticipated, and calculated to enlist
for herself those popular affections Which during her
girlhood have been so unhappily estranged. We
are disposed to congratulate the Spaniards upon the
course just adopted by their SOVEREIGN, though it
were of course premature to commend the embryo
Cabinet for a liberality that is merely hinted and an
independence that is only supposititious. By a
gradual process of liberalization the Govern-
ment of Spain has risen from the slavish.

BRITISH 411ti.S'A UM.

No less than 19,170 persons passed yesterday
through the collections of this institution. As an in-
stance of the increasing interest which the public
takes in this national collection, we may state that on
Easter Monday, 184.5, th number of visitzs was
15,316; whereas yesterday there were 19,170. Dar-
ing the year 1841 there ware 319,374, whilst during
last year there were 750,601. An effective body of
police was dispersed throughout the rooms, superin-
tended by Sergeant Neale. The magnificent hall
leading into the building was expected to be thrown
open; but, in consequence of the works not being
sufficiently advanced, the public was unfortunately
deprived of a sight of that splendid piece of archi-
tecture.

U..VITED SERVICE MUSEUM.
It not being generally known that this institution
is, during the week, thrown open to the public with-
out orders from the members, was, possibly, the cause
of there not being so many visitors as we should be
led to suppose, though more, however, visited it
yesterday than on the correspinding day of last
year, there being 1,100 persons who availed them-
selves of the opportunity to inspect this valuable
museum. The company was highly respectable, and
testified much satisfaction with the various articles of
curiosity exhibited in the institution.

The witnisis was cross-examined at considerable length by
How, with reepect to the Stour I.alley project, and
although he admitted that in some respects it was superior
sto his line. yet, taking it as a whole, he considered that it
'was vastly inferior, and that his line would offer the best
-oonarrinnication to the district. The North-Western project
is proposed to VUO loin Stourbridge to the main line of the
Stour Valley at Srnethwick, and to branch out at Rendall-
bill to Halesowen, and a place in the vicinity of Dudley. It
would have half a mile more tunnelling than the other line.
Mr. Varden, assistant to Mr. Brunel, said he had laid out
the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton branch, under
the direction of that gentleman, and that it would accommo-
date a greater number of important works, and be generally
more useful than its North-Western competitor. Those
works below its level would _be accommodated by inclined
