We hail a much better show or foreign stock in to-day's
market than for some time past. Amongst it were over
200 oxen fiorn Spain and Portugal.
The arrivals of beasts pot up from our own grazing d:s-

tricts were moderate As to number, but in full average
condition, especially the Scots from Norfolk. There was
a large number of buyers in attendance, yet the beef trade
was in a sluggish state, at Friday's decline in the quota-
tions of 2d per Blbs. The highest price for beef was 48 61

per. Sibs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 2,700 Scots and short horns; from other parts of
England, 400 of various breeds; from Ireland, 60 oxen;
and from Scotia/rid, 360 horned and polled Scots.
The shoW of English sheep was seasonably good, and in
excellent condition. There was rather more demand for
most breeds than-on Friday,-yet that day's decline in price
of from 2d to 4d per Blbs was not exceeded.- It must be
understood that our table of quotations now refers to s!s.eep
out of the wool. Tho few DoWns, in the wool, realised

We were rather sc-tntily suoplied with lambs, which
sold, rather freely, at Fri-lay's decline: The top price was
6s 2d per Blbs.- About 300 lambs came fresh to hand from
the Isle of Wight.
There was an improved demand for calves, nt last Mon-
day's currency. Tile best veal was worth 536,1 per 81bs.
The pork trade ruled dull, but no change took place in
prices,

-1", thieves, convened by Mr. Dufton, was held on
sY evening, in London 'Prentice-street. It con-
tsl)l. youths from twelve to seventeen years of ag!,
seemed most anxious,.to reform and change their
ortli," of living Most of them either have no parents
Imaave left their. homes and live in low lodging-houses,
40t- Inns of them not unfrequently sleep out all night,
aving the means of paying for their beds. One
teed' aged sixteen, has been before the magistrates seven-
fouVirees ; another, aged twelve, fifteen times ; one
titth,"een years old, thirteen times. Mr. Dufton has the
tr -t„,esiq many others, who have been before the magis-
-4;3 of
two to five times for stealing. Several of
otlie
,- are desirous of entering a reformatory school,
lin,l' ris to get work, and it is a painful reflection that
tile` this is done, they have but one' way of living—by
otlt's-vvhich, accurding to their representations, yields
rY a scanty and precarious subsistence. A heavy
deir usibility rests upon society as regards these juvenile
tuttiguente, who are willing to earn their own livelihood,
ti h4je deprived of the means of doing so. A sugges-
t (::* has been made that if a lodging-house were taken
number of these youths it might be rendered
use;almot
at4BllPPorting through the weekly payments for its
that if manufacturers would kindly assist in giving
o,..era work the youths would be reclaimed. The chief
-4,Peris
to e would be incurred in the employment of a person
m°olt after the premises, and provide the food of the
_etlPants. Some of the boys have been employed in

ees for their present trustworthiness. We wish

NEW SOUTH WALES.

We have received files of papers from Sydney to
the Ist of March inclusive.
We take the following from the Sydney Morning
Herald of the lat of March :
"The western escort arrived this morning with
1,614 oz. 6 dwts. 22 grs. gold dust. This is more
than the usual average. The increase no doubt
arises from the new diggings at the Ophir, which
has been sold at the Tambaroora, Sofala, and
Bathurst.
" The advance in the exchange will cause a much
larger quantity of gold to be forwarded to Sydney.
Many of the diggers are holding for higher rates.
"The market has been extremely dull, little
offering, and scarcely any received by post and
private hands. The demand will be greater for
shipment to England.
" The report of gold having been discovered at
New Caledonia, is proloably correct. I have little
doubt that not only will it be found in large quan-
tities there, but likewise at the Feejee Islands.
During a residence in those islands I saw in the beds
of the mountain creeks sand very similar to the
black sandl of the Ovens gold-fields. I compared
them on my arrival in Sydney, and found a very
trifling difference.
" The quotations are without alteration.

FRANCE.

PARIS, SUNDAY.
The Lyons journals contain long details of the
triumphal entry of the division of General de Failly
into that city on their return from the Crimea.
They were met at some little distance from the
city by M. Vaisse, senator and administrator of the
department, accompanied by the mayors and other
public functionaries ; the members of the Council-
General ; the Chamber of Commerce ; and the
other constituted bodies. Marshal de Castellani
with his staff and a numerous escort were also pre-
sent. All these high personages had assembled
under a large tent erected for the occasion. When
the head of the division appeared, General de
Failly halted in front of the tent, and in a few ap-
propriate words expressed his thanks for the recep-
tion given to his men by the city of Lyons. M.
Vaisse replied in suitable terms, assuring the
general and his brave division of the warm feel-
ings of the inhabitants towards them. The Marshal
then took up his position in front of the tent, and
the division marched past amidst shouts of " Vive
PEmpereur 1" " Viva PArm6e !" Many of the
officers and soldiers marched with difficulty from
fatigue and the wounds which they had received.
The general carried a large crown of flowers and
laurels, all the officers had bouquets in their hands,
which had been presented to them, and most of the
soldiers carried flowers stuck in the muzzle of
their guns. A public subscription has been opened
at Lyons for the purpose of giving a grand banquet
to the officers 91 the division, and also for giving
an entertainment to the men.
London, England, 1856-05-26

THE SUNDAY MUSIC QUESTION.

HYDE- PARK.

The number of people who yesterday visited Hyde-
park and Kensington-gardens was by no means so consider-
able as had boon generally anticipated, a fact which was
probably owing to the invitation -riven by placard to those
interested in the Sunday Band Question to assemble on
Primrose-hill. But however this may have been, it is in-
unitestible that the visitors to Hyde-park werenot at all in
excess of the numbers to be seen there on any fine Sunday
afternoon during the summer, although there was doubt-
less a greater preponderance of the working class element
than is usually observable.
It had become known that a band was to be provided by
individual effort, and about half•past three a body of Ger-
nan musicians made their appearance, and took up a p.si-
,.ion north of the Serpentine, near the enclosure at the back
.f the Royal Humane Society's receiving-house, where they
were greeted with cheering by those near the spot, and
elosely hemmed in by a crowd of several hundreds of per-
,ns ere they had well pitched their music stools, or got
their instruments in order. They first played " God save
the Queen," which met a loyal response from the bystand-
ers; and then they gave "Rule Britannia," which was also
loudly cheered ; other airs followed, and the whole per-
formance was well received by a shifting but not over nu-
'nerous audience ; for the greatest number of people assem-
eled in the immediate neighbourhood of the band at any
.tne time did not exceed 1,200 or 1,501 persons. It must,
in fact, be admitted that the experiment of a non-official
',and is to a great extent a failure. There were many thou-
sands of people in the park and gardens, without doubt,
Out they sauntered up and down the gravelled walks,
r circulated round the Serpentine, or placed themselves
ender shady trees, in pleasant pie-nic fashion, and,
'n short, while to all appearances thoroughly en-
joying themselves, they cared little for the efforts of
the band, who, finding themselves not to be that centre
,f attraction which they had, in all probability, expected
to become, shifted their position to a more open spot, neat
the firework enclosure, but without drawing any greater
number of people around them than before. The band was
is very good one, and the music generally of a character to
please the popular and, perhaps, not over-discriminating
audience ; but there being no platform for the accounmod a.
tion of the musicians, who were closely packed i❑ the
middle of a crowd, the effect which, under more favourable
circumstances, they might have produced was, in a great
measure lost—in addition to which they were greatly infe-
rior, numerically, to a regimental band.
There was an expectation on the part of some that the
police would interfere, and stop the band from playing, but
no such interference took place. Not more than two or
three policemen in uniform were anywhere to be seen, and
everything went on quietly enough until the band quitted
the park at six o'clock.

Walter Palmer (handing a paper to witness) ?—I believe
it to be.'

Is that the signature .of Pratt ? —I do not know.
. Did you not receive that paper from Pratt ?—I believe
I di*i not. I think William Palmer gave it to me.

Well, did he give it you V—l don'Crecollect.
I repeat my queßtion. Did William Palmer give you
that 'document ?—Most likely he did.
Did he, I ask again ?—lt was not signed zt the time'.
But did he give it you. I will have an answer ?-r
have no doubt he did.
Well, then, if that document bears the signature of
Walter Palmer, an 4 was given to you by Wm. Palmer,
cannot you tell whether it bears your own signature or
not Attorney—
Don't " Mr. Attorney" me, answer my 'question.
Upon your oath is not that your handwriting V—l be-
lieve it not to be.

Wid you swear it is not ?--I believe it not to ba.
(Great sensation.)
Now did you apply to the Midland Counties In-
surance offics to be appointed agent to the company at
Rugeley ?—I
When was it ?—I should like to fetch my documents
and paper; ; I should then be able to answer you accu-
rately.
Oti, never mind the papers. Was it in October, 1855,?
—I think it was.
Did you send up a proposal for an insarance of 10,0001.
on the life of Bates ?—I did. .
Did William Palmer ask you to make that proposal, ?
.--Bates and Palmer came together to my office with a
prospectus, and asked me if I knew whether there was
an agent for the Midland Counties Office in Rugeley. I
told ,him I never heard of one, lie asked me after•
wards if I would write and get the appointment, because
Bates wanted to raise some money.
Did you send to the Mid!and Counties Office to get

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The " fourth-rate Paris dealer," Herr
Miladler, is now in London. As an Englishman
who has to pay for the maintenance of English
institutions, I demand that this Coburg represen-
tative of English connoisseurship on the Continent
at I,OUO/. a year be called upon to produce the
" dingy and bedaubed Bolognese copy' which Mr.
Morris Moore has repeatedly declared that that
German did his best to fasten upon us, some years
ago, as an original and important work by Cor-
reggio. No one can venture to deny the fairness
of Mr. Morris Moore's proposal, that a council of
men of acknowledged connoisseurship and character
be appointed to pronounce upon the merits of that
work. 2

Previous to the hanging of the daub, which
Puna neatly dubbed " The Adoration of the
Magi, but of nobody the " Herr Mill:idler loudly
boasted in Paris that ho had: secured for the Eng-
lish National Gallery a first-rate Paul Veronese.
Since he learned what sort of reception this " first-
rate Paul Veronese" had met with here, ho as
loudly repudiates all connection with its purchase,
and transfers his share of glory to Sir C. Eastlake,
whom lie declares to be wholly responsible. At the
same time Herr Miladler is " enclianti,s that the
ignorant fall upon him in the English journals."
The old apothegm about " honour " among " gen-
tlemen " of a certain craft appears to find little
favour with German nominees and incanables,
when responsibility can be shirked at the expense
of an associate.

Herr Mindler's presence at the National Gal

fiery affords one of the most flagrant instances yet
experienced of the pernicious influence exercised by
Prince Albert. It is a standing insult to every
Englishman of spirit, and renders England au ob-
ject of reproach and derision to the world.
Yours obediently,
May 25. N. T. WALTER.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Madamoiselle Johanna Wagner on Saturday night
appeared as Lucrezia Borgia in the opera of that name.
Though the part is not likely to become so completely
identified with her as that of Romeo, her largeness of
manner, both as a vocalist and as an actress, gave im-
portance to the impersonation, especially at the end of
the first (really the second) act, when the result of the
mother's long-sustained anguish was exhibited with mar-
vellous power. M. Carlo Braham, who had already dis-
tinguished himself as a concert singer, made his debut as
Gennaro, and was received with the welcome due to the
member of a family long associated with the history of
musical art in this country. The part, which is an ex.
tremely arduous one, and requires efficient acting as
well as singing, was perhaps somewhat beyond his pre-
sent powers, but he executed his task so as to gain con-
siderable applause. The popular character of Maffio
Orsini was sustained by Mademoiselle Amadei, who
sang the " Brindisi " with a great deal of dash and viva-
city. The house was filled in every part, and the new
ballet went off with great elcat.

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg of the sth says :
" Lord Wodehouse was received yesterday by the
Emperor Alexander in the palace of Tsarskoe-Selo
at a private audience. Before returning to St.
Petersburg his lordship was driven in one of the
state carriages through the magnificent grounds
which surround the palace."
" The Grand Duke Nicholas," says a letter
from Holsingfors, " arrived here on. the 25tt.
June, and was followed the day after by General
Todleben. The Grand Duke, accqmpanied by the
General and by General Berg, governor of Finland,
inspected the fortifications of Sweaborg and the
construction of the new hospital. He took his de-
parture for St. Petersburg on the 27th."
Count Orloff arrived at St: Petersburg on the
Ist from Stettin. His first interview with the
Emperor was affecting. " The friendship my father
felt for you (said th© Czar) has not descended into
the tomb with him ; it remains entire in the heart
of his son."

METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS.

On Friday the ordinary weekly meeting was held in
the Council Chamber, Guildhall—Mr. Thwaites, the
president, in the chair.

METROPOLITAN IMPROVEMENTS.

Mr. FEw introduced a deputation from the Board of
Works for the Strand district, and the vestry of the
liberty of the Rolls, on the subject of a new street by
way of !Carey-street, Lincolns-inn-fields, and the nor-
thern side of the new Record-office, near Fetter-lane.
The memorial showed that the present time was most
favourable to secure ground at the entrance to Carey-
street from Chancery-lane.
Mr. HALL drew attention to the great importance of
taking an enlarged view of the subject matter of this
memorial, inasmuch as it was not a mere local improve-
ment that was advocated, but one which would form
the centre of a grand thoroughfare from east to west.
The memorial was referred to the committee of works,
with instructions to report thereon on an early day.
Mr. SNOW likewise introduced a deputation from the
hamlet of Mile-end Old Town, and the Poplar and Lime-
house districts. The memorial presented prayed that
the board would be pleased to cause a now road to
be constructed from Litnehouse to the Mile-end-road, so
as to form a junction with the Grove-road, and to cause
this last-named road to be widened, so that it might be
of the same width as the new road.

The Rev. Mr. ROITSALL earnestly adocated the pro-
posed line of road, inasmuch as it would afford to a vast
working population a means of approach to the Victoria-
pnrk. He had frequently had occasion to pass through
Victoria-park, and he had never yet heard a single word
made use of that was offensive to his ears as a minister
of religion or as a man. (Hear, hear.) This memorial
was likewise referred to the works committee ; but Mr.
Wilkinson hoped that the deputation would not depart
with the notion that because the matter had been so re-
ferred that immediate steps were to be taken ; and
Mr. Taylor called the attention of the deputation to
the fact that the freeholders whose land adjoined the
propoed road would be so largely benefitted by its con-
struction, that they ought to be prepared to contribute
extensively to its formation.
