THE GREAT EXHIBITION.

Yesterday there was a very considerable falling off in
the numbers that visited the building, the police returns
giving 52,879 as the total, while the receipts at the doors
amounted to 2,4691. 16s. The excessive heat of the
weather is probably the cause, for there is no reason to
believe that the Crystal Palace is as yet losing its attrac-
tiveness with the masses. By a constant use of hand
watering-carts and cans, tind by removing the glass par-
titions at the eastern and western ends, the interior was
kept pretty cool throughout the day, and the tempera-
ture must have been considerably lower than it was out-
side. A good deal, however, still remains to be done in
the way of ventilation, and it is satisfactory to find that
the managcmeat are taking vigorous steps to insure the
comfort of their visitors during these veritable dog-days.
They intend to open up large spaces for the admission
of fresh air Loth below and in the galleries, and we have
no doubt that when their arrangements are completed
they will be crowned with the same success as has hi-
therto attended their labours.

ABD-EL-KADER.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY rose, pursuant to
notice, to put a question to her Majesty's Government, if
they knew of any communication having been had between
the French Government and the Government of the Porte
respecting the continued imprisonment of Abd-el-Kader.
He had seen with great satisfaction that the British Go•
vernmeut was on better terms with foreign Governments
than it was this time lest year, and he was glad to find
that the entente cordiale between this country and France
had not diminished under the rule of that wise and ju-
dicious Prince who was now President of that Republic,
and who, he could ❑ot but believe, would receive
any intercession of ours on behalf his captive would be
favourably received. He had had a correspondence with
the President on the subject, and he felt that the
moral dignity of the House of Lords exercised great
power throughout Europe, and he was certain that
any representation they might make would produce
great effect. (The Noble Marquis then proceeded
to read extracts from his correspondence with
the President of the French Republic on the subject of
the captivity of Abd-el-Kader.) He considered that,
from the expressions made use of in the correspondence,
the President was favourably disposed towards the
liberation of Abd-el-Kader, and that any repre-
sentation from the Government of this country could
not but strengthen him in his , resolve. The
Noble Marquis conclided by puttirre; the question
of which he had given rntize, and also asked if the Go-
vernment would give irtimations to this Ambassadors in
France and Constantinople to use t heir exertions to pro-
vide a less restrictive domicile for Abd-el-Kader.
The Marquis of LANSJO49NE said that her Ma-
jesty's Government had rccaived no communication from
the French Government on the subject of Abd-el-Ksder,
and that we had no right to interfere in the matter. How-
ever much he might individually feel for the sufferings of
such a great warrior as Abd-el-Kader, however satisfac-
tory it might be to him to learn that that eminent
warrior had been released, or that his sufferings had been
mitigated, yet he felt that as a Government we had no
right whatever to interfere.

-Lord BROUGHAM said, nothing could be more
ga atifying than the statement of the Noble Marquis re-
lating to this unprecedented passa4e in the history of
modern times. He did not blame the *sent head of
ate French Government or his illustrious predecessor;
but he blamed the public opinion in •France, which in
this respect was anything but sound or creditable to the
nation.

rytHERE ARE NO ESTABLISHMENTS
LIKE THOSE OF lIYADI AND CO.

Gentlemen would do well to bear this inm7nd.and to receive it
implicitly as an assertion which a trial will fully substantiate.
The establishment of lIYAISI and CO. is distinguished, not for one
particular description of attire only, but for novelty and excellence
in all the various peculiarities of dress. In articles for morning and
evening adoption, and in dress for riding and walking, the qualifica-
tions of Hyam and Co. are conspicuous. In dress for the sea-side, in
sporting and fishing coats, in liveries, and in juvenile clothing, the
recommendations of the proprietors are pre-eminent ; and an im-
parttal inspection and trial (~rill be attended with the most entire
satisfaction on the part of the purchaser, " Self-praise," it is said,
"is no recommendation," but, as far as business is concerned, this
is exceptional; and when assertions in trade can be backed by proof,
as in the case of Hyam and Co., a tradesman has nothing to fear.
In addition to the novelty, beauty, and durability of Hyam and Co.'s
attire, there is a most important saving in price, since the proprie-
tors make economy one of the principal elements of their system.
For these and various other reasons it may be safely of irired and
'accredited that for the purchase of dress of every description " there
are no establishments like those of Hyam and C 0.," 36, Gracechurch-
street, City, and SG, Oxford-street, West-end.

FRIGHTTUL OCCURRENCE AT A SOAP-BOILER's.—
Yesterday morning an accident of a most frightful character
took place on the premises of Mr. ii.eatley, soap manufac-
turer, Great George-street, Bermondsey New Town, to a
man named John Murphy, aged twenty-four years, a work-
man, whereby he sustained such frightful injuries that he is
not expected to survive. 1 t appears that the unfortunate
man was engaged, with other workmen in the manufactory,
in preparing a large quantity of boiling lye (a composition
of ashes and other materials), used in the mixture of soap,
and whilst walking across a plank on the side of the copper,
he slipped, and fell into the boiling liquid. The screams of
the
fellowwith considerable soonbrought his companions to his assist-
ance, difficulty he was extricated in a
aonrd
most shocking condition, being scalded over his body, arms
legs, and thighs, to a very fearful extent. He was seen by
a surgeon in the neighbourhood, who immediately ordered
his removal to the accident ward of Guy's Hospital, where
he was placed un er the care of Mr. Rhys, the house sur-
geon, who rendered every possible aid for the alleviation of
the sufferings of the wounded man, who last evening was
in a precarious state from the complicated injuries he had re-
ceived.

SUICIDE.—A cool and deliberate act of suicide was
committed by a man whose name was not mentioned, on the
South Wales Railway, on the 23d inst. He waited some
time at Llantrissant, and on the near approach of the early
mail train, laid himself down on the rails, and allowed the
train to pass over his body, which was instantly severed.

up for three days (of which this is the last) at the Sur-
rey Gardens. The race in sacks—which, by the way,
was remarkably well contested yesterday—seemed to
afford the greatest amusement to the spectators; but
we very much doubt whether genuine rustics could be
easily found capable of recovering their perpendicular
after repeated falls, and continuing their race, with
limbs so straitened as were those of their agile repre-
sentatives.
The old English sports were followed by M. Jullien's
concert, with the addition of the well-known vocalists
Miss Messent, and Messrs. Leffler, Manvers, Young and,
Jolly, and the usual display of fireworks.
The zoological collection has received several recent
additions, besides the gift of her Majesty's beautiful

the Crown lands should be closely investigated from
the very highest to the lowest party concerned, and
that every trespasser should be treated with the most
stringent severity.

The question of " hardship " cannot arise—the
treatment of ANNE Hicxs has disposed of that
plea. For surely the refusal to sanction the pri-
vilege of which she and her ancestors had been
in the uninterrupted enjoyment for more than
100 years, was as great " a hardship" to her
as the removal of their cattle could be to the persons
claiming any right of common or other easement on
any of the Royal parks or forests. A valuable prece-
dent has, therefore, been established, for which we
thank Lord SEYMOUR. It must be of the greatest use
to Lord DUNCAN in his future proceedings. It will
also be exceedingly beneficial to those demanding
inquiry into the legality and propriety:of the hereditary
pensions to the Dukes of GRAFTON and MARLI3O-
- the heirs of the Duke of SCHOMBERG, the
Earl CowrEn, the fortunate assignees of the late
CHARLES BooNE„and a host of others, who must tremble
when thinking of the severity displayed towards ANNE
Mem, who, after all, had perhaps, as strong here-
ditary claims, as any of the parties. Lord SEYMOUR
has fully vindicated himself and the Government,
but he must extend an equal measure of justice to
all, lest what might be considered a justifiable pro-
ceeding may be looked upon as an act of tyranny
and oppression. His net must not be so constituted
that the minnow alone will be captured while the
tritons can readily break through and escape from its
meshes.

SECONDARIES'.--(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. \Secondary POTTER.)

WESTON AND ANOTHER V. LANGBOURNE.-A DISHO
NOURED CHEQUE.

The plaintiffs in this action are meat salesmen in
Newgate-street, and defendant is a timber merchant near
Maidenhead. The action was brought to recover the
sum of 121. on a dishonoured cheque.
Defendant did not deny his handwriting, but pleaded
that the cheque had not been duly negotiated.
The plaintiffs' Attorney put in the cheque, which was
made payable to John Moore or bearer, and it was paid
to a Mr. Marshall, who paid it to the plaintiffs. The
Learned Gentleman contended that as the defendant did
not appear to support his plea, it was only necessary
to put in the cheque to entitle the plaintiffs to a verdict.
The Learned SECONDARY said some evidence of the
consideration between the plaintiff and Marshall must be
given, although it was not necessary to prove the ori-
ginal consideration between defendant and Moore. A
cheque was different from a bill of exchange, as it was
made payable to so and so, or " bearer," and the bearer
was the mere agent; but a bill was made to - or
" order," and immediately it was indorsed it became ne-
gotiable and could be recovered upon, unless defendant
showed a want of consideration, or some other legal
defect. .

Mr. Marshall was then sent for, and on arriving proved
that he had paid it to plaintiffs for meat, and had re-
ceived the difference in cash.
The Learned SECONDARY considered this was suf-
ficient, and the jury gave a verdict for the amount
ol aimed.

AUSTRALIAN STEAM NAVIGATION.

In reply to Mr. HENLEY,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said no
step had yet been taken for establishing a steam com-
munication between the Cape of Good Hope and Sydney.
The subject was one of considerable importance, as such
a communication would involve a large expenditure of
public money, and although the Indian Committee re-
commended its establishment, he was net prepared to
say whether the recommendation would be carried out
or cot. _ _

Lord JOCELYN, as Chairman of the Committee, must
move the adjournment of the House, for the purpose
of contradicting the statement of the Right Hon. Gentle-
man, that the recommendation could only be carried out
at considerable expense to the public. Now, so far from
that being the case, the Committee, after hearing evi-
dence upon the subject, arrived at the conclusion that
the route recommended was not only the cheapest, but the
best, and if the Government thought the recommendanon
could not be put in force without an expenditure of
something like 50,0001. a. year, why did the
.Righht On:
Gentleman the Chancellor of the Exalhequer;owboe m:dac.
." thb Committee, allow trie recinainT
Ihne'r3elel cona.i mend ti on ,
13 the report of the Committee?
o 'ty of eleven to five,
however, was agreed
aj
sayrl that the report was
and it was unjust for atn°y* a majority
carried by a corahleadte_ionneofo ntorests. Those who
adopted rho report nothing
but the public interest,
at heart in d&rig so.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXEHEQUER re-
v red from the evidence which was produced be-•
j,7.rac the Committee, it appeared that the minimum,
estims.te :Jr carrying cut the two hoes recomnecaled by
the
report was no less than 150,0001. He denied
that 1- had thrown out r.ny imputation against.
the mariner in which the report was carried.
All th:Lt ho had done was simply to
state that in the existing state of affair.; it was nor ad-
viable to carry cut the recommendation of the Committee.
Lord NAAS tt.;d the House that if the reeetiethenda-
tien of the Commit!ee were carried out it would be tis
saving to the eounfry of 40,0004 a year.
An HON. MEMBER—NO, no.
Lord isIAAS said he meant to say 20,0004 a year.
The SPEAKER said the error of the Noble Lord only
shored the necessity there was for putting an end to
the ihcorivenient practice of debating such questions as
this on a motion fur adjournment.
The mitten for the isdjournthent was then withdrawn.

THE TRUE PEACE CONGRESS.

We have received the following account of a most
gratifying instance of" fraternization" from ono of the
foreign visitors who " assisted," to use his own phrase, at
the scene:—On Friday about fity persons were assem-
bled together at Simpson.'s ordinary at 13i11ingsgate.
These persons met there at the " fish dinner" with-
out any previous concert, and the company consisted,
in addition to the habituJs of the ordinary and sundry
English visitors, of ten French gentlemen, who had
agreed to form a party to come to the London Exhibi-
tion. These gentlemen were from Lyons, from
Chalons, and from Paris. The French and th© Eng•
lish soon became on the most friendly and intimate
terms; in fact, they seemed as though they had been in-
timate friends for years. The French, wishing to recog-
nise the frank hospitality with which they had been re-
ceived, swat for a case of champagne, and the fire com-
menced along the whole line. The French proposed the
health of the Queen of Great Britain, and the English re-
plied by toasting " The French R.'public." The company
sang " God also the Queen," in honour of the first
toast, az.cl the " Merseiltaise," in honour of the second.
Each toast and each coup/et was greeted with enthu-
siastic cheering. Tho most extreorainary circumstance
attending this cordial union between the people of the
two echoes is that, among all present none of the
French understood Engli,b, nor did any of the
English understand French. The communication of
their thoughts and f.elings took place by a natural
end spontaneous movement. The people of the twe,.
nations need not the aid of diplomatic science to under-
stand and to communicate with each other. Left to
themyives, and to their own feelings, they will never
agsie open a fusillade against each other, save that of
champagne curki.
London, England, 1851-07-30

Since than, having received no further accounts of what
bad taken place, a dispatch from the Court or Directors
was approved by the board, and was no doubt dispatched
by the mail which left this in the early part of tha
month, bringing the subject to the attention of the Go-
vernment, and desiring that every means be taken to ex-
pedite the payment of such claims as were duly proved.
Every arrangement nad been made by the Court to carry
into effect the payments which would be made iu this
country, and particularly to insure to the parties a safe
mode of remittance. It was not in his power to state at
what particular period their claims wool f be settled, be-
cause he had no information beyond the fact already
mentioned of the local Act which was necessary for the
purpose of enablin Government to settle these claims
baying been read a second time in F.,bruary last. If
that Act had passed the Council of India, he concluded
the claims must now be in the course of settlement. If
that were not the case, the dispatch to which he had re-
ferred would no ,doubt hasten that settlement.

ROYAL SURREY ZOOLOGICAL

GARDENS.

An entertainment called "Mayday in the Olden
Time," in which the traditional pastimes of our rural
ancestors are represented by Mr. Flexmore and the
corps de ballet whose performance obtained so much ap-
plause at the recent fete at Holland Park, has been got
up for three days (of which this is the last) at the Sur-
rey Gardens. The race in sacks—which, by the way,
was remarkably well contested yesterday—seemed to
afford the greatest amusement to the spectators; but
we very much doubt whether genuine rustics could be
easily found capable of recovering their perpendicular
after repeated falls, and continuing their race, with
limbs so straitened us were those of their agile repre-
sentatives.
The old English sports were followed by M. Jullien's
concert, with the addition of the well-known vocalists
Miss Messent, and Messrs. Leffler, Manvers, Young and,
Jolly, and the usual display of fireworks.
The zoological collection has received several recent
additions, besides the gift of her Majesty's beautiful
leopard.

BO W-STREET.--(111_1S. DAY.)

THE CASE OF THUGGEE.—Richard Wallis, an asso-
ciate of Biss and Kelly who were yesterday remanded
upon the charge of attempting to strangle and of robbing
Mr. Day, in Mercer-street, on Sunday night last, was
now brought before Mr. Henry charged with aiding and
abetting the others in the outrage. It appeared that
Mr. Richard Long, of Mercer-street, Long-acre, coach
harness manufacturer, witnessed the greater part of the
murderous attack from the window of his bedroom, and
gave Sergeant Thompson a desciption of two persons who
were in company with Biss and Kelly at the time, and
stood by whilst they assailed Mr. Day. Upon that descrip-
tion the prisoner was traced and taken into custody.
Mr. Long stated that one of the persons who were in
company with Bias and Kelly, standing by during the
assault and running away when they ran away, was of
the same stature and general appearance as the prisoner
Wallis, and to the best of his belief was that person, but
he could not swear positively to his identity.
It was not known whether Mr. Day had seen enough
of any of the parties to be able to identify them, and the
prisoner was remanded to be brought up again with the
others when that gentleman is able to attend.
