THE GREAT EXHIBITION

Another day of inecesant storm and rain has added to
the misfortunes of the sight-seeing public, yet, undaunted
by the state of the weather, 48,318 persons visited the
building yesterday, and 2,2331. 7s. was tho amount taken
at the doors. Th Queen and Prince Albert were there
in the morning shortly after nine o'clock, and remained
till half-past ten. They examined during their stay
those objects in the Rusaia,a department which they had
not previously looked at, aed especially the brocades
and rays produce, which, as we have already said, are
extremely interesting. They also greatly admired the
imperial fur cloak, valued at 3,400/., which is exhibited
in the north gallery of the nave, and is made of small
pieces taken from the neck of a species of fox, the quality
of the pile being peculiarly limp and delicate. Here,
also, a very remarkable silk shawl was examined by
them, the pattern of which is the same on both tide,.
Mr. Kemensky, the Russian Commissioner, M. Shone.,
and Dr. Hamel!, accompanied the Royal party, who
afterwards proceeded to the apartment furnished with
the French national manufactures, for the purpose of in-
specting a nee, uud very splendid specimen of
tapestry illustrative of the massacre of the Meru
Jukes by Mehemet Ali. This is a magnificent ex-
ample of what the (lobelias eau effect and as a work of
arc and of manufacturing skill is
.equally admire -
bite Yesterday the Executive Committee were actively
engaged in making arrangements for the reception ef
very tine collection of objects forwarded to the Exhibi-
tion from Buckingham Palace, and which consists, of pre-
senta made to lit r Majesty by the Newab letrzun, of
Bengal. The principal contributions are elephaut tetwe
trappings, a State palkee, a State throne with canopy, ti
pair of moorelials, er emblems of rank, said to be very
valuable, tandpullcce, or evening conveyance, ialentled
to be carried by bearers. This collection is to be placed
in the north-east gallery, at the corner neatest the tran-
sept. There are several other changes in the interior,
completed or contemplated, which deserve notice. The
first of these is that the gigantic American eagle which
overshadowed with its wings the east entrance of the
building has been entirely eclipsed by Messrs. Gray
and Davidson's organ, which has been recently removed
there. The king. of birds, after a vain effort to cover
the emptiness of the Yankee compartment, angers
to be shrinking abashed behind the melodious'
er
afforded to it, and our cousins really have reason
to congratulate themselves that their eagle at last
shows'some traces of modesty and diffidence. Another
point of public interest relates to the Koh-i-Noor.
After all the work which has been made about that
celebrated diamond our readers will be rather surprised
to hear that many people find a difficulty in bringing
themselves to believe, from its external appearance, that
it is anything but a piece of common glass. Amid all
the adventures that have befallen it, there is, perhaps,
none more odd than that its genuineness should now be
doubted. Yet so it is. The fact is, that the " Mountain
of Light" has been shockingly ill-used in the cutting,
and that when placed in the open light of day, without
any arrangements to draw forth its brilliancy, it does
not sparkle and gleam like other jewels of the kind. To
obviate this disadvantage, and demonstrate to the world
that the Koh-i-Noor is a veritable diamond, it is to be
surrounded with a canopy or tent, the interior of which
is to be lighted with gas, and the idea is that this will
develope its beauties as a gem of the purest water, with
a certainty and splendour which undoubtedly are not
attained at present.
A remarkable feature of yesterday's experience in the
interior of the Exhibition was the appearance there, at
an early hour, of nearly 800 agricultural labourers and
country folk, from the neighbourhood of Godstone, in
Surrey, headed by the clergymen of the parishes to
which they respectively belonged, and organized for the
occasion into companies like a regiment of militia. They
paid Is. 6d. each towards the expenses of the trip, the
rest being defrayed by the gentry of the neighbourhood;
and, notwithstanding the state of the weather, they were
conveyed to the Exhibition and back again to their own
homes in a very expeditious manner, and with the utmost
care for their comfort. The railway station was reached
by waggons, and from London-bridge terminus to West-
minster they were brought up by steamer. Thence,
after seeing Westminster-hall, they proceeded on foot
and in marching order to the Crystal Palace, and,
having spent several hours there in exploring the
wonders of art and industry, at four o'clock
they took their departure, returning as they
came. The men wore their smartest smockfrocks,
the women their best Sunday dresses, and more perfect
specimens of rustic attire, rustic faces, and rustic man-
ners could hardly be produced from any part of Eng-
land. The town portion of the assemblage gathered
round them as they mustered before departing in the
transept, with looks full of curiosity, not unmingled with
a species of half pitying interest; and many were the
questions put to them as to what they thought of the
Exhibition? What they were most struck by? Whe-
ther they understood what they had seen? And if they
would like to come again? After some little marshalling
they left the Exhibition in close order, moving three
abreast—an affecting array of young and old, male and
female, in which each observer might read with his own
eyes the evidences of a laborious life, little relieved by
intelligence or education, but simple, unpretending, and
not usaccompanied by domestic virtue and happiness.
They were chiefly, we understand, from the parish of
Lingfield, and their rector, the Rev. Mr. Hutton, who
attended them, deserves great praise for this truly bene-
volent and pastoral act, which ought to be extensively
imitated.

PEMBROKE, JUNE 10.—A

Of the Admiralty order to visit the Exhibition. This
liberality is considered a great indulgence, particularly
as no pay is mulcted, nor any extra work expected to be
performed.
Royal
P Dockyard Battalion—lt has been arranged that
forthefuture every Saturday afternoon shall be devoted
to the purpose of training and drilling the dockyard bat-
talion, in order to secure a duo efficiency in tho summer
drills. In order to meet this arrangement, and to insure
that no loss shall occur to the service, the workmen have
been directed to work an extra half-hour every day. By
this means one half of the battalion will receive an after-
noon's training and exercise every week.
The fortified barracks are in full possession of the 82d
Regiment, the left wing of which, consisting of four
companies, now garrisons the dockyard.
Tho martello towers at the dockyard are furnished
with detachments of the Royal Artillery, hitherto sta-
tioned in the barracks; they have been removed to make
room for the full complement of the 82d. This arsenal
bas been garrisoned by the Royal Marine Corps ever
since 1833. The 82d is commanded by the following.

render any hope of recovery almost vain. As a last resour
he tried Holloway's Pills, and by persevering in their use ac- I

SAMBRE AND MEUSE.

The twelfth half-yearly general meeting of the proprie-
tors of this company was held on Wednekday, at their
offices, 61, Moorgate-Areet. Mr. W. P. Richards in the
chair.

The report having been real,
The CHAIRMAN congratulated the proprietors upon
the prospect of prosperity which they at length enjoyed.
There had been a diminution in the expenditure ot the
half-year, and an increase of income. When the
iron trade revived in Belgium there would be a pro-
portionate increase in their receipts ; but as that
revival could in no way depend upon the directors,
they were not prepared to base any immediate cal-
culations npon it. When the line was carried out to
Vireux, they might, however, safely rely upon a large
traffic in coals for the supply of the whole district; in-
deed, were it only for the traffic in coals they had
every reason to desire the completion of the line. The
supply of coals to the district of Ardennes and the north
ot France had been estimated at 140,000 tons. But if
they calculated the supply at only 100,000 tons, they
would have a return of 24,0001., whien, added to their
present profits, would yield about 34,0001. to the
company. They managed their present traffic at a
cost of about 8,300/. ; and if 3,8001. were added for
the increased expense, which was tbe estimate made,
they might calculate upon a profit of 22,0001. This
profit would arise from the traffic in coals alone; and
they had, in addition, to calculate all the items, which
swelled the estimated profits to 96,000, or, at the lowest
estimate, to 70,000/. The branch lines which it was
proposed to make would cost at the most 200,0001., and
for this amount they had a Government guarantee of
tour per cent. Compared with last year the situation
of the company was decidedly good. They were
then embarrassed with a contract from which
they had sustained great loss, and with other
runious expenses. There was no friendly understand-
iug with the Belgian Government, and they did not
know how to raise the necessary funds to carry on the
works. All this was now changed. They had got rid
of the contract which embarrassed them, and were pre-
pared to make what new new engagements they chose.
They expected to save from twenty to thirty per cent. in
their contracts alone. The Belgian Government was
now most friendly, and had given facilities for raising
the required capital on very reasonable terms, so that
they would be able to complete the line to Vireux for
about 200,0001. In conclusion he begged to move that
the report and statement of accounts should be approved,
adopted, and circulated.
In answer to a question,
The CHAIRMAN stated that the interest on debentures
already issued bad not been paid, in consequence of the
accident which had occurred in the autumn of last year.
It amounted only to about 1,8001., and would be paid as
soon as they had money. They had the power of paying
off the debenture debt after three years, and he hoped

mously adopted.
Mr. Sheward was unanimously re-elected as a directot
of the company.

meeting then became special, for the considery
tion of the terms of the agreement with the Belgian Go-
vernment, and a series of resolutions were passed, by
which the meeting approved of the propositions provi-
sionally accepted by the Minister of Public Works in
Belgium, and signed by Mr. lieward on behalf of the
company, and authorised the directors to carry them into
execution, and empowered them to raise a sum not ex-
ceeding 400,000 k, by debentures on the line, or by the
creation of preference shares, or otherwise, for the put.
pose of completing the line. A
vote of thanks to the Chairman concluded the pro-
ceedings.

SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE.
A special meeting of the proprietors in the above com-
pany was held at Lichfield on Wednesday, for the pur-
pose of obtaining their sanction, according to the stand-
ing orders of the House of Lords, to a Bill now before
Parliament for constructing a branch to connect the
South Staffordshire with the Stour Valley and London
and North-Western Railways, in the parish of Tipton,
in the county of Stafford. Mr. R. C. Chawner presided.
Mr. W AGSTAFF, the solicitor, having read the provi-
sions of the Bill,

The CH AIRMAN explained that the proposed branch
would not be more than half a mile in length, and the
cost about 6,0001. Mr. Ati'Clean, the lessee, had made a
traffic arrangement with the London and North-Western
Company, and it would be to the interest of that gentle-
man and to that of the shareholders generally that the
proposed branch should be constructed. If it was not
done by them it would be done by somebody else. They
would secure a good division of traffic, and it was desir-
able that the arrangement should be at once completed.
He moved that the Bill be sanctioned, and the motion
being seconded was carried unanimously.
The meeting then broke up.
