THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
The receipts at the Crystal Palace yesterday amounted
to 2,5001. 16i., and 181. 18s. was taken by the sale of
season tickets, which still continues. By the police re-
turns 55,254 people visited the building during the day,
a considerable proportion of whom were evidently from
the country.

COLONEL SIDTIIORP AND TUB EXHIBITION.--NOt'
withstanding the antipathy of our Gallant Member to the
importorlatio of foreign goods and foreigners to this country to
d's Fair, it gives us great pleasure to inform our
readers that the Colonel was observed in the Crystal Palace
on Wednesday last, evidently highly interested in the mag-
nificent display before him. He paid particular attention to
the American and French departments, and was apparently
astonished at the ingenious production of Colt, the gun'
maker, so justly celebrated for his six-barrelled revolver
pistol. He was also much pleased with the splendid articles
of vertu displayed in the French department. He spent
nearly the whole of the day in the building, and we do hone strong John Bull
prejudices with reference to the Exhi-
bition, so often evinced in quaint and humorous speeches, will
have departed from him.---Lincolre Times.
ST. PAUL'S SCHOOL.—The Apposition of this ex-
cellent foundation took place yesterday. We are glad to
announce that the Lord Chancellor has signified his into
tion of transferring 1,00(1., the interest of which is to b°

to be called " The Thruston Memorial," is proposed, fo,

THE FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT WOOLWICU.
—Yesterday an inquest was held at Woolwich on the body of
Mr. William Buck, of Hanover-chambers, Adel*, who voo
killed by the passage of a train on Sunday night on the
North Kent Railway. The jury, having heard the evidence
of several eye witnesses, returned a verdict of "Accidental
death."

LIR STIPENDIARY MAGISTRATESHIP AT LIVER.
rooL.—At a meeting of the Liverpool town council, hell
yesterday, it was resolved to recommend Mr. J. S. Blanstiel'h
formerly of the northern circuit, to Sir George Grey, as the
successor of the lute Mr. Rushton, at the salary of 1,0001. a
year. Two courts are to be established under the same roof,
,
over one of which the mayor and honorary magistrates will
preside. It was proposed that the name of Mr. Blair, a LI:
verpool barrister of tome standing, should be coupled with
that of Mr. Mansfield in the recommendation to the Secretary
of State, but this was overruled by a majority of 40 to 1q:
Mr. Rushton, the late stipendiary, enjoyed a salary of 1,600/.
but he transacted the whole of the business, without the
assistance of a second court.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(T/lIS DAY.)

J. Linstead, a journeyman tailor, IV. Lewis, a pri-
in the Coldstream Guards, and Benjamin Swan, chimney sweeper, were charged with robbing a og
man named Bruce of the sum of 19s. 6d.
It appeared that the prosecutor and a young
were drinking at the bar of a public-house in West'
ster, and proiecutor took the silver out of his pocket bl
pay, when a soldier, who was in company with seer:
others present, struck him on the arm, and knocked t°o
money out of his band. The soldier did not stoop ,0

scrambled for it, and ran away from the house. 1°

The JUDGE remarked that this was the first time 10

A witness stated that the soldier concerned in the
"lark" had his buttons down the coat front in an up'

CONVERSAZIONE AT THE MANSION-HOUSE'
Yesterday evening the whole of the State apartmeal
at the Mansion.honse were thrown open to a brilliaa,
circle of rank, science, beauty, and fashion, sauh as 11
seldom seen collected under one roof, even in the gill
metropolis. The arrivals were incessant from nine tl
half-past ten o'clock, by which time every available
corner of the civic palace was crowded to
suffocation'
The Egyptian Hall was brilliantly illuminated, and at'
ranged as a concert-room, in which was performed e
concert of English music, and we need hardly add tbst
it formed the great point of attraction. In the ball-room
were laid out various objects of interest contributed bi
friends of the Lord Mayor, among which were model°
of ships from the Admiralty, electro plate from
Messrs. Elkington's, the beautiful and novel glass
globes which now figure so frequently at pahil
entertainments, some fine specimens ot enameled
glass from Mr. Kied; and lust, though not least
in interest, a rare and curious manuscript chronicle
of French history sent from the City archives by the
City Rememi.rancer. In other parts were flags front
the Tower, and suits of armour from various quarters;
in short, nothing was wantiog to give eclat to the wee"
come which our worthy chief magistrate dispensed to
his distinguished foreign and English guests. Between
half-past ten end eleven the scene was gay and attractive
to an extraordinary degree, the number of foreign sod,
especially of eastern costumes giving quite a pictorial
chat aster to the groups, or rather crowds, which one
met in every quarter. The distinguished visitors were
severally introduced by Mr. Cattey, the Lord Mayor's
secretary, who most effectively superintended the Be'
neral arrangements, and received by the Lady Mayoress
with all duo graciousness and hospitality. The cola'
pany, which numbered altogether nearly
.1,500, b gas
to depart shortly after the concert, but great numbers
protracted the reception until nearly twelve o'clock.
