DEADENING WALLS AND CEILINGS.

Men of ingenuity, lend us your ears. There is
no greater nuisance in modern houses than that of
the transmission of sound through parti-walls.
Any practical, inexpensive, and efficient means of
deadening sound will be a great boon. Solid walls
and solid floors transmit sound in the highest de-
gree. The Metropolitan Building Act provides
that all parti-walls shall be solid, and of a certain
thickness in proportion to height and length. How
is the evil to be overcome ? "For eight years,"
writes a -studious friend to us, "I have occupied a
house in London ; and, during the whole of this
time, there have been neighbours having young
families.. They are musical, and, I must confess,
labour most industriously at the scales : morning,
noon, and night one or other child howls and
strums, apparently without making any pro-
gress." There is- no objection to
.neighbours'
children learning music and singing : quite
the reverse ; but it is most objectionable
that walls should so readily transmit sound,
and render the young ladies' efforts so -widely
known. Some persons always take a corner house,
so as to be free from such nuisance on one side at
least. Is there no remedy The late Mr. Cubitt
had some trouble at Balmoral with certain floors,
and remembered that in taking down an old palace
floor (many
years before), vast quantities of cockle-
shells fell out from betwixt the joists. These bad
been used in plugging. The idea was acted upon.
Cockles were, dredged, and brought : the shells
were cleaned, dried, and used, with beneficial
effect. The cellular spaces thus producedi absorbed
sound. Some highly cellular texture may be ap-
plied to walls, ceilhigg, and floors, which shall resist
fire and ordinary decay, allow of finish, and yet
deaden sound. Who is to invent and introduce
such materials? They may patent the invention
and make a fortune, if. they will only abate the
existing nuisance, and enable us to have solid parti-
walls and fireproof floors without being compelled
to hear what is going on up stairs and in the next
house.—The Builder.

An extraordinary general meeting of the European and
American Steam Shipping Company (limited) is callsd
for the 22d inst. It is proposed to increase the capital,
by inning preference shares.

WOOL.

Owing chiefly to the high value of money our market
continues heavy, and prices era barely supported. The
stocki of wool are now on the increase, the imports lact
week being. 988 bales from Launce-Aon, 1,912 from Algoa
Bay, 136 from the Cape, 258 from Adelaide, 2,039 from
Melbourne, 3,391 'from Geelong, 30 from Shanghai, and
55 from Paris.
The following are the current rates of English wool :
Down ten, is 7d to is 8d ; lialf-bred hoggets, is 6d to is
7d ; Kent ,fleeces, is 5d to is 6d ; Down ewe:, is 5d to
is 6d,. Leicester fleeces, Is 4d to is 5(1 ; combing skins,
is 3d. to 18.511 ; flannel wool, is 2d to Is 6d ; and blanket
wool, 10(1 to is 2d per,lb. -

vance. It would notinterestherin the slightest de-
gree even if a candidate of the House of Coburg—a

matter by no means impossilde—were in the field.
Still, considering the sinister and unconstitutional
influences in operation, it behoves all true-hearted
Englishmen to exercise a salutary caution, and to
take care that Ministers continua in the right
path, yielding neither to fear nor favour, their
assent to the Muscovite proposition for the
union of the Principalities, and the election of
a so-called iadependent (I) sovereign from on•
of the reigning families of Germany.

THE ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER
MAJESTY.

The acconchement of her Majesty is hourly antici-
pated. The Secretary of State, whose province it is to
summon the great officers of State On these occasions,
has had officials nightly in attendance during the past
week, in expectation of the event. The Prime Minister
remains in town, though he is very desirous of visiting
his seat in Hampshire for a little relaxation era the com-
mencement of the Parliamentary session. Some of the
leading members of the Cabinet have had leave of ab-
sence granted them. The Lord President is in Paris,
and the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the President
of the Board of Trade are at their country seats. The
latter are, therefore, at too great a distance from the
metropolis to arrive at Buckingham Palace in
time, even if they were summoned by electric
telegraph. The Premier, the Lord Chancellor, the
Secretaries of State remain in charge to attest the
birth of the royal infant. Sir George Grey will, it is
expected, officiate for Earl Granville as Lord President
at the • Privy Council which will be held immediately
after the acconchement has taken place. Her Majesty
retains her usual active habits ; she walks daily in the
palace gardens, and every afternoon takes a carriage air-
ing, accompanied by Prince Albert and some of the royal
children. The Queen's general health is, we are happy
to say, as perfect as the raost loyal subject could wish.
Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent pays a daily
visit to Buckingham Palace, as does also her Majesty's
half-sister the Princess of Hohenlohe Langenburg.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 6th have reached
us. The English Ambassador is stated to have
notified in the name of his Government that

Spain warranted in requiring roraration
frorrt Mexico for the assassination of her sub
jects ; but that the English Cabinet hoped it
might be obtained peaceably. One of the jour-
nals says that both England and France are
labouring to bring about an arrangement of
the differences between Spain and Mexico. The
Government had sent a note to the Emperor of
the French, representing that the aggressions on
Spanish subjects in Mexico must be considered,
not as acts of indiviiluals, but as part of a system of
declared hostiltty to Spain. The receipts of the
Treasury in February last amounted to 212,124,477
reals, which were 8,675,306 reels more than tho,e
of the corresponding period of last year. It was said
that a Ministerial department for the Colonies was
about to be establi,thed, and that M. Gon-
zalez Bravo would most likely be appointed to
it. The Duchess de Montpensier had a fausse
couche, on the 31st ult. The trial of the Iberia,
for publishing a seditious article, had take n.
place, and ended in the acquittal of that jour-
nal, which was ably defended by M. Olozaga.
The Queen had written an autograph letter to
the captain-general of Catalonia, M. Zapatero,
thanking him for his recent energetic measures
for the preservation of order, and announcing to
him that his wife had been made a member
of the order of Maria Louisa. A letter says :•-" The
Government has this day received the news that
the Mexican Government has executed four of the
assassins of Spaniards at Cuernavacco, but it does
not appear that it has proceeded against the func-
tionaries of the Republic who acted with great fe-
rocity against the Spanish, nor against the assassins-
of San Vicente. These executions do not satisfy
the Spanish government, which requires a more
complete reparation."

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, APRIL 10.—Some of the German papers
are informed by their Vienna correspondents, that
the diplomatic relations between Austria and Sar-
dinia are likely soon to be renewed, but nothing
of this is known in diplomatic circles. The French
Government has been extremely active here, but
its endeavours to persuade the Austrians to be
reconciled to their Sardinian neighbours have
totally failed. Directly after his return from Turin
Count Paar had an audience of the Emperor,
and he is said to have informed his Majesty
that there was little hope of any change in the
policy of the Sardinian Government. The language
used in Austrian official circles is, that the diplo-
matic relations between the two Governments will
not be renewed until the satisfaction demanded in
Count Buol's notes of February 10 and March 16
has been given by Count Cavour.
Yesterday the ceremony of " The Washing of
Feet" took place at Court. At 9 o'clock in the morn-
ing 24 old people-12 men and as many women—
who were dressed in the ancient German costume,
were conducted to the " Hall of Ceremony" (Cere-
monies &cal) of the Palace. On their arrival the
men were placed on one side of a long table, and
the women on the other. As soon as the seniors
had taken their seats their Majesties entered, and
placed before them a great number of dishes which
were brought in trays by the Imperial servers.
The Emperor handled the "crockery" in a mas-
terly way, but the Empress required the assist-
ance of her ladies. After the dishes had been set
on the table they were removed and placed in
twenty-four large baskets, which were sent to the
rooms occupied by the paupers in the
.almshouse.
At 10 o'clock the washing of feet began in the
chapel of the Palace. The Emperor performed the
ceremony on the above-mentioned 12 old men, and
the Empress on the women. His Majesty received
from the hands of his Lord Steward a gilt ewer,
and poured from it a few drops of water on one of
the feet of each of the men. After a towel had been
pressed once or twice on each of the wetted feet,
and a little bag containing 32 silver groats had been
hung round the necks of the old people, the cere-
mony was at an end. Her Majesty, who was at-
tended by her Lord Steward, acted in exactly the
same way as her Imperial consort.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, APRIL 10.—Some of the German papers
are informed by their Vienna correspondents, that
the diplomatic relations between Austria and Sar-
dinia are likely soon to be renewed, but nothing
of this is known in diplomatic circles. The French
Government has been extremely active here, but
its endeavours to persuade the Austrians to be
reconciled to their Sardinian neighbours have
totally failed. Directly after his return from Turin
Count Paar had an audience of the Emperor,
and he is said to have informed his Majesty
that there was little hope of any change in the
policy of the Sardinian Government. The language
used in Austrian official circles is, that the diplo-
matic relations between the two Goveriments will
not be renewed until the satisfaction demanded in
Count Buol's notes of February 10 and March 16
has been given by Count Cavour.
Yesterday the ceremony of "The Washing of
Feet" took place at Court. At 9 o'clock in the morn-
ing 24 old people-12 men and as many wpmen—
who were dressed in the ancient German costume,
were conducted to the "Hall of Ceremony" (Cere-
monicw Saal) of the Palace. On their arrival the
men were placed on one side of a long table, and
the women on the other. As soon as the seniors
had taken their seats their Majesties entered, and
placed before them a great number of dishes which
were brought in trays by the Imperial servers.
The Emperor handled the " crockery" in a mas-
terly way, but the Empress required the assist-
ance of her ladies. After the dishes had been set
on the table they wore removed and placed in
twenty-four large baskets, which were sent to the
rooms occupied by the paupers in the almshouse.
At 10 o'clock the washing of feet began in the
chapel of the Palace. The Emperor performed the
ceremony on the above-mentioned 12 old men, and
the Empress on the women. His Majesty received
from the hands of his Lord Steward a gilt ewer,
and poured from it a few drops of water on one of
the feet of each of the men. After a towel had been
pressed once or twice on each of the wetted feet,
and a little bag containing 32 silver groats had been
hung round the necks of the old people, the cere-
mony was at an end. Her Majesty, who was at-
tended by her Lord Steward, acted in exactly the
same way as her Imperial consort.

CORN EXCHANGE.
The LI ansactioni in wheat in most of the counts; mar-
kets held on Saturday were very moderato, and prices
had a downward tendency. Barley and oats wore like-
wise cheaper, and all other articles commanded very little
attention. •
The whole of the continental markets continue dull for
wheat, the supplies of which have been on the increase.
Spring corn has changed hands slowly. In the United
States very little has been passing on English account.
The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market
last week wore very moderate. From abroad we received
5,671 quarters of wheat, 30,352 barley, 31,558 oats, 1,884
rye, 685 beans, 60 peas, 58 tares, 1,151 linseed, 5,205 rape-
seed, 930 Indian corn, 20 sacks and. 1,250 barrels of flour.
As is invariably the case during the holidays, the at-
tendance of buyers here, to-day, was limited. Coastwise
and by land carriage, the receipts of English wheat were
again small, consequently the show of samples was trifling.
For all kinds, however, we had a slow inquiry at last Mon-
day's quotations. Most of the finest wheats were disposed
of.. . .

rliterb Zbttton

There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on of-
fer. That grain met a very dull inquiry at almost nomi-
nal prices.
For floating cargoes of grain there was very little inquiry.
'Cho show of foreign barley was extensive, and that ar-
ticle moved off heavily, at a decline in the quotations cf
is to 2s per quarter.
Malt moved off slowly, but no actual change took place
in value.
Owing to the large influx of oats, the oat trade was de-
pressed, and prices gave way fully is per quarter compared
with Monday last.
Beans and peas were steady, at last week's currency.
The flour trade ruled heavy, but no further change took
place in value. The imports from abroad are limited.

A HAPPY HOLIDAY.

MURDER IN ISLINGTON, —Upon one of tholice
searching the room occupied by Tripp he found amongst
some bay in a box, the skull, shoulder-blade, and ntbet
bones, forming part of a female skeleton, apparently
about middle age. There were also portions of a bonnet,
shawl, dress, and other articles of female apparel. These
things were in the inquest-room, and created great kee;
sation. This new and unexpected discovery has caused
considerable alarm and excitement throughout the

CRYSTAL PALACE.

Saint Monday, though even it was an Easter
Monday, drew nothing like the assemblage of visi•
tors together, as might have been expected after
the display of Friday last. The attractions were
the same, but the beluty of the weather was want.
ing. The most devoted votary of pleasure—the
artisanwho gets his holiday but once or twice a
year—could not be led to believe that it was worth
his while to brave a winter's storm of snow or hail,
and leave his fireside to shiver, even surrounded by
tile fairest flowers or the most exquisite statuary.
Nor do we blame him. Yesterday (Easter Monday)
was
ess.niially a stay-at-home-day, and nothing
but a strict sense of duty to our constituents could
have led us to violate the dictates of domestic influ-
ences produced by the continuous storms of hail,
rain, and snow, which distinguished the day. That
nearly 12,000 parties (officially 11,830) visited the
Palace is, however, a sufficient proof that there are
that number of individuals in the metropolis who
feel that they have no other opportunity of being
present than one of our few national holidays
affords. We trust that more genial weather will
draw more crowded audiences to the really excel-
lent music provided for their entertainment at the
Crystal Palace during the coming week.

SADLER'S WELLS.

The void left in this classical quarter by the annual
migration of Mr. Phelps and his talented company
has been filled up by Mr. G. A. Webster, whoovith
several stars of greater or less magnitude, has pro-
vided an Easter entertainment for the holiday folks.
The performances commenced with the familiar in-
cident from "Uncle Tom's Cabin" entitled "The
Death of Eva," in eunneCtion with which the
Howard Family have gained considerable fame,
both in Ameiica and in this country.. The part of
Topsy was very cleverly played, as usual by Mts.
Howard, wha kept the audience ,in continued
laughter and good humour, and . successfully re-
lieved the somewhtt dreary and sombre character
of the piece. "Little Cordelia Howard" won
golden opinions from the younger anti fairer portion
of the audience for the manner iu which she played
Eva ; while Mr. Howard 'made the most of the
character of St. Clair. The piece met with a very
hearty reception by the audience, who honoured
the principal performers with a, call at its conclu-
sion. This was followed by Buckstone's comic
drama of "Good for Nothing," in which Miss
Woolgar took the principal chat aster of Nan. She
managed to keep the audienc, in a roar of laughter
from beginning to the end. She is always in mis-
chief; now tumbling into the water, now breaking
the windows, and now sadly ill-treating poor young
Mr. Simpson, the landlord's son, who has come to
distrain for rent ; but in the end of course turning
out, as all good-for-nothing people on the stage
invariably do, a much better person than was ex-
pected. Mr. Chester played Tom Dibbles, the
gardener, excelleu;ly. Mr. Lingham, as Harry
Collier, a railway fireman, also did ,his part very
well. Tom and comic 'Van were followed by
'Plancho's burlesque, entitled "The Fair One with
the Golden Locks," as originally performed at the
Haymarket Thea're. In this piece Miss Esther
Jacob, as Graceful, the King's minstrel and fa-
vourite, and Miss Clara St. Casse, as Queen
Lucidore, or " the Fair One with the Golden
Locks," acted their respective parts with great
spirit, and, obtained considerable applause, The
performances concluded with the romantic drama
of. "The Jew of Lubeck," in which another star,
Mr. T. Lyon, made "his first appearance for many
years." We have no doubt that, with the present
varied attractions, the management will be .re-
warded wi,h a fair share of patronage during the
continuance of the Easter holidays.
London, England, 1857-04-14

ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.

The Easter holidays always produce a large num-
ber of visits to this deservedly popular exhibition
—for we know no educational establishment around
the metropolis to which the mind of the young can
ba more advantageously directed, and where more
knowledge is to be practically obtained. If the
attendance was not quite so good as it has been on
former occasions, it can only be attributed to the
unpropitious state of the weather ; but should the
remainder of the week be fine, there can ibe no
doubt that the Z...,ological Gardens will obtain at
least its fair share of patrons.

CREMORNE GARDENS.
As Easter returns, so with it appears Mr. Simp-
son, of whom we hear nothing for months, einerg-
mg like a butterfly from the chrysalis. What be-
comes of Simpson during the winter months has
long been a mystery to us. Whether he migrate 3
to some distant laud only to reappear with spring,
cr whether he Leo dormant like the bat, we knoer

CANTERBURY HALL.

This popular place of amusement came in for, at
least, its full share of public patronage. The
spirited proprietor made every possible exertion to
insure the gratification of his visitors, and assuredly,
he had his reward. The ample Hall was crowded
to suffocation, and-yet so admirable were the ar-
rangements that but little if any inconvenience was
sustained. Every order was promptly and satisfac-
torily answ•ared. The performers shared in the
general exhiliration and exerted all theii energies to
please the appreciating audience, who, by enthu-
siastic applaue, showed how fully they were satis-
fied with the entertainment. Were it not invidi-
ous to allude particularly to one, where all did
well, we should notice the brilliant efforts of Ma-
dame Marietta, who was in excellent voice, and
received the most unequivocal proofs of the effect
produced on her delighted hearers.

BURFORD'S PANORAMAS OF ST. PETERS-
BURG' AND MOSCOW.
This well known place of popular resort in holi-
day times maintains its high character foil admir-
able scenic portraiture. It po-sesses new panoramic
views of singular beauty and interest—one of 'St.
Petersburg, the other at Moscow.
The view of Moscow seemed to attract the chief
interest of the visitors yesterday. The whole effect
is exceedingly fine. Taking it altogether, it is cer-
tainly a most picturesque and interesting city.
Great prominence is, of course, given to the Impe-
rial procession on the occasion of the late corona-
tion of the Czar, and the, gorgeous uniforms and
State officials introduced add greatly to the bril-
liancy of the scene. These panoramas cannot fail
to attract numerous holiday visitors.
London, England, 1857-04-14

OLYMPIC.

The performances selected for the Easter enter-
tainment consisted of the new drama of "Dadd
ilaidacre," followed by "A Sheep in Wolf

Clothing," and concluding with the farce of
" Thieves ! T ieves !" Having very reef nt:y taken
occa4ien to not ce 'hese pieces, it will only be ne-
cessary to say that tirey were acted in a very
spirited and successful manner. The house, was
crowded in every part.

STRAND THEATRE.
A pleaAng variety of entertainments were pro-
Yided for the holiday folks at this popular place of
amusement, and a tolerably full audience was at-
tract 'd by the programme. The principal piece of
the eveniog was the burlesque of " William Tell,"
which maintained the amusement of the audience
at the highest pitch throughout by its 0111110101.13
situations, and the sallies political, philosophical,
and otherwise, occasionally and with great judgment
introduced. The farce of "Don't Mention'. It"
followed, and, t)gether with the rest of the per-
formance 3, was warmly applauded.
