HER MAJESTY.

OSBORNE, April 27.
The confirmation of his Royal Highness Prince.
Arthur took place yesterday at Whippin,gham
Church by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Her Majesty the Queen arrived at the church at

12 o'clock, accompanied by Prince Arthur (who
went in the same carriage with her Majesty), Princess
Helena, Princess Louise, and Princess Beatrice.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are expected
to return to Sandringham hi June or July, to witness a
great cricket match, which is to be played in Sandringham
Park, and for which the greatest efforts are being made
to prepare the ground in front of Park House, General
Knolly's residence.

The Countess of Dunmore and Lady Alexandrina
Murray are shortly expected to return home from visiting
Lord and Lady Elphinstone at Cannes.

The Duchess (Eleanor) of Northumberland is ex-
pected to arrive on Thursday at her residence in White-
hall gardens, from Stanwick Park, Yorkshire.

News from China.

(From the long Kong Mail, March 15.)

The news from Peking is in one sense of consi-
derable importance, if true. It is stated that a
mission is to be appointed to proceed to Europe,
and that Mr. Wade and Mr. Hart will accompany
it. We are also informed that it is intended to
take with the mission six of the pupils now study-
ing English and French at Peking. We must,
however, confess that we are more sceptical as to
the truth of this report, as private letters have not
mentioned the subject; and one so important
would hardly have been overlooked by our corre-
spondents. Nothing more has come to hand about
the insurgents in Anhui.

From Canton thefollowing news was published in
the Evening Mail of the 6th inst :—" The successes
of the Imperialists in the north-east of Kwang-tung,
which were recorded recently, have taken the shape
of a more complete victory even than we antici-
pated. The entire body of rebels, under the lead of
Kang Wang, numbering some 50,000, and forming
the last residuum of the Taipings, have been either
slaughtered or taken prisoners. About 20,000 perished
in a conflict lasting two days—the Bth and 9th ult.,
and the remainder have surrendered themselves to the
Imperial commanders. The latter have already
commenced the work of disbanding their troops,
whilst the civil authorities are busy with arrange-
ments for dispersing the prisoners, with whom, to
the number of upwards of 30,000, they find them-
selves burdened. The victorious general, P'ao
Ch'ao, has already left Hankow, where he is to
take the field against the Nien Fei. This success
—wiping out the last trace of the Taiping rebel-
lion—will no doubt be peculiarly gratifying to the
Peking Government."
The news from Japan is unimportant.

glad to avail them selves of this opportunity of acknowledging
their obligation to the gentlemen of the press universally for
the favourable notices given in their several papers of the
" Modern Instructions" and other works of Hamilton. They
are unable to mention these obligations in derail, for that
would be to give almost an entire list of the press of Eng-
land, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland combined. Their thanks
are equally aue to the body of professors for the friendly in-
terest they have taken in the success of a work the merits of
which had won their approbation ; and they are further
bound to acknowledge—and thcy do so with c ifdial sincerity
—the general co-operation of the trade, who have, with frank
liberality, promoted the circulation of these works.

would cure them. In the Gazette of June
the sth, 1778, is the announcement of the death
of Voltaire, in the terms, " Marie-Francois
Arouet de Voltaire, Gentleman in Ordinary to
the King, and a Member of the French Academy,
died on the 30th of May last, aged 84 and some
months." On the Ist of June of that year the
" Misanthrope" was played at the Theatre Frangais.
The exchange on Amsterdam was 53A, and on
London it was 30k.

The Gazette de Moscow, referring to the attempt
to murder the Emperor of Russia, says that the
assassin must be a Pole, for no Russian would com-
mit such an odious act.

On the 15th of June there is to be an exhibition
of the products of Swedish industry at Stockholm,
which will comprise objects manufactured in the
three neighbouring kingdoms—Norway, Denmark,
and Finland. The expense of the exhibition is to
be defrayed by the State. The palace in which the
exhibition will take place is composed only of wood
and glass, and with the annexe will occupy a space
of 1,200 square metres.
The Constitutionnel denies the truth of the re-
ported armaments by Italy. Italy (it says) has
neither made armaments nor concentrations of
troops.

The Court of Cassation has rejected the appeal of
the sailors of the Feederis Arca, so that those ter-
rible cases of murder will be tried by a Maritime
tribunal, which has no power to find " circum-
stances of extenuation."

Mademoiselle Marie Taglioni has left the Berlin
Theatre, and is about to marry Prince Joseph de
Windischgratz, an officer in the Austrian army.

The Midsummer weather continues. Indeed the
heat seems on the increase. Again, however, there
was a white frost early this morning in the country.

ITALY AND AUSTRIA.
PARIS, APRIL 28.

The Constitutionnel of this morning says :—" The
danger of a war between Austria and Prussia ap-
pearing to be removed, Austria should not maintain
her armaments in Venetia. It is not probable that
Italy would alone attack Austria." The Consti-
tutionnel proceeds to deny that Italy is arming, and
adds :—" Under these circumstances it is to be
supposed that Austria will not delay replacing her
military arrangements upon their former footing in
Italy, as well as in Germany. This is necessary in
order to restore to Europe real confidence in the
maintenance of peace, and that tranquillity and
liberty of action needed for the development of her
prosperity."

were about 700 spectators to witness the race of 200 yards

MEETING OF LIBERALS,

THIS DAY.

A very numerous meeting of the supporters of
the Government in the louse of Commons was
held this day, at the residence of the Premier, Earl
Russell.

The subject discussed was the amendment of Earl
Grosvenor to the motion for the second reading of
the Franchise Bill on Thursday next.
The meeting was of a private nature ; but we be.
lieve we may say that the Government feel certain
of a majority whenever the division takes place.
The debate in the House of Commons is fully
expected to extend over seven or eight nights.
London, England, 1866-04-10

to the House of Commons. The Easter recess was
now over, and how the various parties in the House
of Commons had been engaged during that recess
he would not pause to inquire. It might be that
weapons had been sharpened during that time, and
batteries armed, but, fortunately, these batteries
were not masked. In thanking them for drinking
the health of the House of Commons, he believed
there was but one feeling in that hall, and all over
England, and it was this, that, happen what might,
the House of Commons should not lose that charac-
ter which it had maintained during so many centu-
ries. Opinions might be divided in the House of
Commons as to the best course to be pursued. There
were some who thought that the House of Com-
mons might be improved by a Reform Bill; there
were others who thought that its character might be
deteriorated. He would say let that side win which
was really right. (Cheers.) The fate of the Ministry
was as nothing to the character of the House of
Commons ; and he repeated he hoped that House
would continue to maintain the high character which
it had always sustained. Every individual was
entitled to hold his own opinion, whatever it might
be. Let every one stand to his opinion, and let
them all look to the result of the struggle in the firm
confidence that the House of Commons will emerge
from the contest without suffering any injury, and
continue to deserve the good wishes and sympathy of
the country at large. (Cheers.) Having said thus
much for the House of Commons he would not further
trespass on their attention ; he only hoped that no
member present would think it necessary to disavow
any one of the sentiments to which he had given
utterance. (Cheers.)
The next toast, proposed by his Royal Highness the
Duke of Cambridge, was the health of the Lord
Mayor, which the Lord Mayor briefly and appro-
priately acknowledged.
After several other toasts the company separated.

THE MALT TAX

A number of petitions were presented in favour of a
repeal of the malt tax.

THE FRANCHISE BILL.

A number of petitions were presented in favour of th.
Government bill for an extension of the franchise.

GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

Mr. Alderman liLOMONS moved for a return of the
appropriation of the whole, or any part, of the sums voted
in aid of local assessments for the relief of the poor on cer-
tain descriptions of Government property, specifying the
amount paid in each district up to the 31st day of March,
1866.—The return was ordered.
THE PROBATE COURT.
Mr. LOCKE asked the Secretary to the Treasury the
reason of the delay in giving
effect to the suggestions
made by the Judge of the Court of Probate to the Lords of
her Majesty's Treasury, for the future regulation of the
salaries and emoluments of the clerks and officers in the
Principal Registry ?
Mr. CHILDERS said letters had been received by the
Treasury year to the effect
stated
the
ethhe commencementon.andlearnedg gentleman,
thezan. T
he officers of
the Court of Probate were appointed at fixed salaries for
b y
fixed duties; but the mode of remunerating those officers
I
was now under the consideration of the Treasury, and he
hoped in a short time
some final decision would be ar-
rived at.

ARMY SURGEONS.
Mr. O'BEIRNE asked the Secretary of State for War
whether the system hitherto followed in promotin g assistant
surgeons to battalion surgeons in the Foot Guards bad
not been regimental ; whether there was any intention to
change that system ; and, if any change was to be made,

under what warrant ?
Tho Marquis of lIARTINGTON said the system in the
Guards with respect to the promotion of the assistant-
surgeons was a regimental system, but a warrant had been
issued in 1860 which gave several advantages, and also
enacted that promotion should be for the future by seniority.
A question afterwards arose whether it applied to the house-
hold cavalry. After some consideration, her Majesty, by the
advice of the authorities at the War-office, had directed
that the promotion of assistant-surgeons to the rank of
surgeon in the household cavalry should be by seniority.
THE CATTLE PLAGUE.
In reply to Mr. REED,
Sir G. GREY said an order in Council had that day
been issued extending the time for the compulsory slaughter
and compensation, which expired on the 16th of April,
until the 10th of May.

CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Monday Evening.
The Pope, at a special audience, granted on the
3d inst. to a great number of Frenchmen, who had
solicited the honour of presenting an address to
him, expressed himself in these terms :—" I have
not forgotten what the French Catholics have done
for the Itoly See. I shall not forget that in 1848 it

was an Ambassador of France who favoured my
departure for Gaete ; and that it was a French
General who in 1849 brought me the keys of Rome.

The proofs of sympathy which the Government of
the Emperor has given to me will not pass from my
remembrance."
In spite of the letter of the Minister of Justice,
giving his opinion that the -Consistory of the
Reformed Church of Paris bad acted contrary to
law in dismissing M. Martin Paschoud, the Pro-
testant pastor, that body has formally confirmed his
dismissal. M. Paschoud has therefore sent the fol-
lowing letter to the Alinister :—" Monsieur le
Ministre,—The Consistory has just voted my dis-
miss-al. The motives assigned are exactly those
which it alleged when it placed me en retraite. Your
Excellency did not approve of that step, and will
still less approve of the present. For this reason I
will not add anything to the letter, which I had the
honour to address to your Excellency on the 23d of
February in reply to the memoir of the Consistoral
Body, and I again rely upon your great wisdom
and justice.—Martin Paschoud." I need scarcely
add that this matter excites intense interest
among the French Protestants of Paris, if not among
the English Protestants, to whom M. Paschoud is
well known.
The Paris papers, including even the Monittur,
fall into strange confusion when treating of the
affairs of Germany. They give news from Pesth
under that head. It may be right to explain that
Hungary never formed part of the Germanic Con-
federation ; and, indeed, the French Government,
when it was proposed to incorporate the kingdom
of St. Etienne with the Confederation in 1850 and
18:51, protested against it, not only on the ground
of its being contrary to existing treaties, but also in
support of the principle of the balance of power.
Hungary does not form part of the Austrian Em-
pire, at least legally. It is united to that Empire
much in the same way as Norway is to Sweden—
under the same Sovereign, but with a separate con-
stitution and Government. That is the construction
of the union according to the Diet of Hungary, and
all Hungary has the same view of it.

CRICKE TING.

The annual meeting of the Huntingdonshire County
Club was hold on Wednesday. The accounts for the past
year year showed that a small balance remained in hand.
The Earl of Sandwich was re-elected president; the Rev.
F. G. Vesey, vice-president ; Mr. W. Foreman, treasurer ;
and Mr. W. Scotney, secretary.
The only change in the ground bowlers at Lord's from
last season will, we believe, be Scottoun, the Notts colt,
rice J. Oscroft. The celebrated brass band of the 3d Essex
Artillery will play during the sports.
The match of Cambridge University v. Tho Players is
to be played at Cambridge on the 27th inst., &c., for the
benefit of J. Muncey, the empire.
J. C. StrAw.—This successful left-arm Notts bowler
(who woke up one morning last season and found himself
famous) will, we believe, play as an All-England Eleven
man this season.

W. MUDIE.—Wo are informed that this player's engage-
ment as ground bowler at The Oval has, by mutual agree-
ment, been cancelled, and that Mudie will be open to
engagements to umpire throughout the season.
LOI:D'S GROUND.—The improvement effected in the ap-
pearance of the turf at this old cricket battle field by recent
alterations, must be seen to be believed. The hill at the
top is reduced a foot at least ; ruts aro things of the past ;
and the careful practical form in which the general levelling
of the whole has been done (doubtless materially aided by
one of the most favourable seasons for cricket-ground
culturing over known) has made the old turf look quite
another affair altogether. The herbage has never before
been so thick all over at Lord's, and when it has been judi-
ciously and thoroughly rolled—as it will be—ho must be a
sour-hearted critic indeed that will find fault with either
the wicket or the fielding portion of Lord's Ground.

BARRACKS AT NOTTINGHAM.

Mr. LOCHE, on the part of Sir R. Clifton, asked the
Secretary of State for War when the Government inended
to build barracks at Nottingham on the land which was
purchased from the Duke of Ne wcattle in 1862 for the sum
of £5,200 ?
The Marquis of HARTINGTON said it was quite true
that no vote had been taken for the erection of the barracks
in the estimates this year. The proposition, however, to
erect such accommodation would not be given up.
THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH (IRELAND).
Sir J. GRAY rose to move the following resolution :
" That the position of the Established Church in Ireland
is a jast cause of dissatisfaction to the people of that coun-
try, and urgently demands the consideration of Parlia-
ment." The honourable baronet said tho subject he was
about to bring under the attention of the house was one
which possessed remarkable interest to the people of Eng-
land as well as Ireland. It was his intention in dealing
with the subject not to raise an unpleasant or acrimonious
discussion either within or without that house, and he hoped
that no one single word which might fall from his lips
would give offence to those in favour of the
Church as an Establishment. He trusted the house might
be of opinion that the time had arrived when
some active step might be taken in the matter, because it
was the general opinion in Ireland that the Established
Church in . Ireland had failed in every one object
for which it was introduced into the country.
The Catholic subjects ofj pier Majesty's, ho could
assure the house, woull never rest
,until some
step was taken to remove that which was looked
upon with dislike by the great majority of the
people in Ireland. The hon. baronet then proceeded to
refer to a series of statistics to show the numbers of Pro-
testants and Catholics in various parts of Ireland, remarking
that one of the causes of the decrease of Catholics in some
places was caused by famine, pestilence, and emigration.
He next proceeded to quote various opinions to show that
the State Church was introduced into Ireland for political
purposes.
