THE SULTAN.

It is already known that the Sultan will arrive
in London on Friday next, the 12th instant, and
will take up his abode at Buckingham Palace ;
and, although the programme of his Majesty's
movements cannot be stated positively, it may to a
certain extent be anticipated. On the day follow-
ing his arrival (Saturday), the illustrious traveller
will be conveyed to Windsor on a visit to the Queen ;
but he will, we believe, return to town that night.
Among the public proceedings set down for his en-
tertainment will be the naval review on the 17th,
and his Majesty will possibly be present at the ball
in the Agricultural Hall on the 18th. The rifle
shootinogoattboBtb, Wimbledonwill Common,probably challenge a visit ; which will com-
menceand the postponement of the review iu Hyde Park
seems to render that spectacle also available. For
the banquet in the City the most active preparations
are already going forward; and we believe that the
managers of the Crystal Palace will offer his Ma-
jesty a public reception, not without strong hope
that it will be accepted.

TRADES' UNION COIIIiVIISSION.

-~------

The usual weekly meeting of the commissioners
took place yesterday at Park Prospectllouse, West-
minster, Sir NV: Erie presiding ; Mr. T. Connolly,
of the Masons' Society, and chairman of the Trades
Conference Committee, attending his place as usual
to watch the proceodingsonbehalf of the committee.
Before entering on the regular business of the
day, Mr. Roebuck, M.P., a member of the commis-
sion, called the attention of the chairman and his
brother commissioners to a report of a meeting of
trade delegates on the Sheffield outrages reported in
the newspapers of June 27. In this report Mr. T.
Connolly, the person now present on behalf of the
Trades Committee, is said to have spoken at that
meeting of delegates, and to have used these words :
" What could be expected from a tow like Shef-
field, which returned such a man as Mr. Roebuck
as its representative?"

After some conversation the Chairman requested
Mr. Connolly to retire while the commissioners con-
sidered the matter brought before them. On being
readmitted Mr. Connolly was asked to sign a docu-
ment addressed to Mr. Roebuck, stating that the
report in the newspapers was not correct, and
that he regretted being so much misrepresented.
Mr. Connolly at once refused to sign a docu-
ment relating to the subject, saying that as he
spoke of Mr. Roebuck as a public man and a mem-
ber of Parliament, and did not at all refer to
him as a member of this commission, he protested
against any interferenca of the commissioners
between himself and Mr. Roebuck.
Mr. Connolly was again requested to retire, and
ou being readmitted, was informed, that he would
not iu the future be allowed to attend any meeting
of the commission.

Mr. Connolly thanked the commissioners for the
courtesy extended to him during their many sit-
tings, and said he should report the result of that
day's proceedings to the Trades Committee, who
would take such steps
in the matter as they
might deem desirable. He then bowed to the
chairman and left the room.
