REPRESENTATION of LAMBETH.
The third of the series of meetings cf the electors of
Lambeth was held last night, at the Rosemary Branch
Tavern, Southampton-street, Peckham, to hear from
Mr. William Williams, one of the candidates, a state-
ment of his political opinions. The meeting, which
was very fully attended, was presided over by Charles
Jones, Esq., chairman of the Lambeth Electoral As-
sociation.

Mr. WILLIAMS proceeded,at once to recapitulate the
great political questions which had come under discus-
sion during the thirteen years he sat in Parliament, and
referred to the votes he had given upon them. He chal-
lenged any individual to point to a single instance in

determined to continue to pursue, and he would so far
give his constituents the advantage of annual Parliaments
as to present himself at the close of each session to them,
and if they should be dissatisfied with his conduct, he
would, within twenty-four hours, place his seat at their
disposal.—(Cheers.) Relying on his past conduct as a
guarantee for the future, ho was there to give a full and
honest answer to any question that might be now pro-
pounded to him.
In answer to several electors Mr. Wieuests declared
himself to be in favour cf a full and efficient legal re-
form; that he would vote, as he had already, for the
abolition of the window-tax, thinking it unjust to La
the two greatest gifts of the Creator, air and light, and
lastly, that he would give his energetic support to any
proposition for the total abolition of church-rates.
Mr: LYON then moved, and Mr. BARKER seconded,
a resolution to the effect that the meeting having heard
with satisfaction the explanation which Mr. Williams
has given of his political opinions, and viewing his con-
sistant conduct as a Member of the House of Com-
mons for thirteen years, considers him eminently qua-
lified to represent the borough of Lambeth in Parlia-
ment, and pledges itself to use every effort to secure
his return.
the After a few words from Mr. ELKINGTON in support of
resolution,
Mr. NANce inquired whether Mr. Williams would
support the points contained in the document called and
known as the "People's Charter."
Mr. WILLIAMS replied that when the petition in
favour of the "People's Charter" was presented by Mr.
Attwood, then Member for Birmingham, he (Mr. Wil-
liams) had moved its reception. On every occasion on
which Mr. Duncombe had brought forward a motion
founded on the charter, he (Mr. Williams) had supported
him, and ho would again support any motion for the
consideration of every point embraced in that dociiment.
The resolution then passed unanimously, and thanks
having been voted to the chairman, the meeting
broke up.
A

second meeting was held (at the Lecture-hall.
Carter-street, 'Walworth, which was also attended by
Mr. Williams. and where his reception was equally en-
thusiastic. Mr. J. 13. Eisdell occupied the chair, and
after hearing Mr. Williams at length, a similar resolu-
at which Mr. J. Ilinde
tion, moved by Mr. F. Doulton, was carriedwithout a
dissentient voice.
A Meeting of the electors was also held last night at
the Swan Tavern, Stockwell,
Palmer attendei, with a strong body of his supporters.
The Hon. and Learned Gentleman addressed the meet-
ing at considerable length, and resolutions declaratory
of his fitness for the representation of the borough were
assented to.

VENING,

PARIS- IN MARCH, 1850.
(coNTiNuEn.)
The following: anecdote epneared in two or three
French papers of Mirch last, but even now gives a
"somewhat new and strange" idea of Lamartine
and the French stage :
" M. de Lanlrtine, as all the world knows, gave
his dram? of Tons.,,ail:t-LinTel*re, to the Theatre
Porte St. Martin, and Fredrick Lflnaitre [who eoted
Robert Macaire so well in London) takes the rule of
Toussaint.
‘" Two months since, Frederick set off for Saint-
Point, where M. de Lamartine then resided, to inquire
how soon he would return to Paris.
" Not for some time, answered the poet; to say
• the truth, it is my intention to rNnain at Saint-Point
as long as I possibly can.—D---1. cried Frede-
rick, but that will not do for me.—Why so ?
Because I shall be obliged to consult you from time
to time on certain parts of my role, and should be
sorry to travel a hundred leagues.—You are right,
said M. de Lamartine, /will be at Paris next week.
" The poet kept his promise. Frederick visited
him at his hotel in the rue de l'Universite, and after
talking about the tragedy, inquired carelessly when
he intended to make his rentrie in the Assembly ?
" Not yet, said M. de Lamartine, I nave several
things to work off.—Permit me to say you are wrong,
said Frederick ; it is absolutely necessary that you
should be seen. The public must know that you are
really at Paris, that you attend the rehearsals, and
that Toussaint-Louverture is an important work, not
merely got up with the aid of a simple machinist.
"On the very day of this conversation M. de La-
martine re• appeared in the Assembly.
" The poet thought he had done enough, but little
knew the Machiavel with whom he had to deal.
Frederick returned to the hotel in the rue de
l'Universite.

"Ah co, M. de Lamartine, why do you never say
a word ?—My dear Frederick, I thought I had
been talking with you this last half-hour.—That
is not what I mean: I ask, why do you
never speak . at the Assembly ?—Because I
have nothing to say at present.—The fact is,
said Frederick, I never see you now in the
tribune, and must confess I should be glad to hear
you, in order to catch some of your gestures and your
intonation : you alone can give me the tone for my
great speech in the Third Act. —lf you please, I will
read it to you.—Bah ! that is quite another thing :
here in your cabinet with your leverets and me, you
have not the sacred fire; you must mount the tripod
of the tribune. If you will not address the Assembly
in a few days, I cannot answer for the Third Act.—
Well, said the poet, with the utmost naiveté, I will
endeavour to speak to-morrow, and I will send you a
ticket for the gallery.
" And M. de Lamartine actually did pronounce a
discourse on the appointed day, but Frederick did
not take the trouble to go and hear it. His point was
gained. Convinced that the success of Toussaint-
Louverture depended as much on the name and fame
of the author, as on the work itself, he had brought
M. de Lamartine to Paris, had sent him to the As-
sembly, and also persuaded him to make a speech, all
this in order that he might not suffer himself to be for-
gotten.

" At the present moment M. de Lamartine does
not suspect these innocent collateral puffs, and Fre-
derick even hopes to make him introduce in a second
speech some transparent allusion to the revolt of St.
Domingo. So cunningly has Frederick got hold of
the ficelle which pulls the decors of both Houses."
This anecdote brings to mind a sentence in 11.
Walpole's Letters :—" A statesman, who is nothing
but an actor, should be that greatest of actors, a
philosopher; and, with the leave of wise men, that is,
hypocrites, philosophy I hold to be little more than
presence of mind." Lamartine showed presence of
mind enough in February, 1848 ; but from the fore-
going, one would believe the other actor to have
shown more, on this last important occasion.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.
(FROM OUR owx CORRESPONDENT.)
COWES, JULY 31.
FIRE AT THE JUVENILE PRISON, PARKHURST, ISLE
OF WIGHT.—Soou after Tuesday midnight a destruc-
tive fire broke out in one of the dormitories called the
C ward, and raged till four o'clock on Wednesday
morning, when the roof of the whole of this part of
the building (200 feet long) fell in. The building
was three stories high and 25 feet wide. There were
200 of the boys sleeping in it when the fire broke out,
who were all safely removed to the parade-ground,
where they were guarded by the troops from Albany
barracks, who had been sent immediately on the fire
being discovered. The building (which is completely
destroyed) was directly at the back of the governor's
house. Great fears were entertaintid that that and
the range of the adjacent buildings would be de-
stroyed, but fortunately there was plenty of water,
and the engines from the poor-house, the barracks,
and Newport ware soon on the spot, and there was no
lack of assistance. We noticed the Isle of -Wight
artist for the illustrated London News on the spot
taking a sketch of the ruins.
Tae governor of the prison was absent on leave.
It is not known how the fire originated ; fortunately
there was no wind.

AUGUST 1, 1850.

Ho said they had the satisfaction of seeing the fund
steadily increased, and new members now eager to join
it. That his own opinion was, that whatever the out-
lay was for printing it was the most likely means to
double the income.

The CHAIRMAN then said he felt it his duty in audit-
ing the accounts to draw attention to the expenses re-
ferred to, but that he now agreed in what had been ad-
vanced by the secretary in justification cf those expenses,
and he most heartily hoped that the success so anticipated
might be realized.

The meeting then separated, well pleased with the
report.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
GOODWOOD RACES.
The effect of a continuance of fine warm weather, as
acceptable to the farmers, whose wheat crops are mostly
ripe for cutting, as it is to the pleasure seekers located
at the neighbouring watering-places, was perceptible to-
day in the increased numbers present, the attendance
nevertheless being obviously below the Goodwood aver-
age. The racing left nothing to desire in respect to
quantity, but was remarkable only by two features of in-
terest,viz., the Steward's Cup and the Goodwood Stakes,
for both of which the fields were numerically excellent.
The eirst of these events was a second and an easy
triumph for the German party, who do not hesitate to
affirm that the Goodwood Cup would also have travelled
abroad had Montes kept sound. The Goodwood Stakes,
as 19 out of 20 anticipated, the favourite won in a canter
to the dismay of the ring, and more especially those who
had laid against double events. Of the other events it is
needless to speak.
In the Stand, which was well filled with fashionable
company, were assembled the following distinguished
parties:—

From Goodwood—The Duke and Duchess of Bedford,
the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort and Lady H. Somer-
set, the Earl and Countess of Eglinton, the Marquis of
Exeter, the Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Lord and
Lady Stanley, Lady Sophia Des Vceux, Lady Rachel
Russell, the Earl and Countess of Be:borough, Lord and

of Granville, the Earl of Uxbridge, Mr. and Lady Louisa
Tighe, Lard Enfield, Earl Jersey, the Earl of Zetland,
Laird Canterbury, the Earl of Glasgow, the Earl of
Airlie, Lord George Manners, Lord George Lennox,
Lord Arthur Lennox, Lord Henry Lennox, Lord Wm.
Lennox, Colonel Peel, Hon. Colonel and Mrs. Anson,
Hon. Captain Rous, Mr. P. Williams, Mr. Payne, Mr. C.
C. Groville, Mr. Sturt, Hon. Francis Villiers, Captain
Pettat, and Lord Dunkellin.
From Mulecomb (Lord March's)—Col. Cox, Col. New-
ton, Mr. A. Groville, and Mr. Milner.
From Mr. Gratwieke's—The Hon. Major Pitt, Sir
R. King, Hon. R. Petre, Mr. Pearce, Mr. Brand, Mr.
S'aelley, Mr. Blake, Col. Thornton, and Mr. Honeywood.
We also noticed Lord Andover, Sir Joseph Hawley,
Lord Exmouth, Sir G. Armitage, Marquis of Drogheda,
Hon. J. Macdonald, Hon. H. Forrester, Lord P. Fitzroy,
Sir W. Codrington, Mr. Bastard, Mr. Jaques, Mr. Mey-

OLD v. YOUNG.
On Tuesday morning this interesting match was resumed at .
Lord's, when there was a very large assemblage of specta-
tors. It will be seen that the "Young-uns" made -another
long score for their second innings, namely, 151; so that the •
" Elderly Gentlemen," as the total of their two hands had
amounted to 295, were called upon to go in for 248 runs to
tie, and 219 to win. Merrily the ancients went to
work; atd when " time " was declared, they had lost
but five of their wickets, whilst they had run up a
score of 108 runs. Of this total Mr. Felix made 40; Guy,
16; and Pilch, 14. The batting of Mr. Vernon must not be
overlooked; he'contributed 42 and 45, or 87 on the match, in
fine style. The third day's play was, all circumstances con-
sidered,
well attended; the old ones bore up gallantly, get-
ting, as the subjoined score shows, 237 in their second in-
nings, Alfred Mynn, the "Lion of Kent," marking 69, and
N. Felix, EFq., 40, while Dakin added 56 to the score, which

MRS TZ:OLLOPE'S NEW NOVEL, " PETTICOAT
GOvERNIIENT" is now the principal topic of conversation
in reading circles. Thin novel (says the Observer) will die •
found fully equal to any production from the same pen that
has preceded it vastly superior, indeed, to some of tha7;
authoress's preceding productions. It is less coarse than the
" Widow Earnaby," less overdone than "Father Eustace,' •
and, generally :peaking, it is more refined than the greater
portion of her novels; but it is not withal any the less defi-
cient in rower - in that close observation of character which
has rendered Mrs. Trollope so famous in that caustic delinea-
tion of character which has made her writings as offensive
to those whom they hold up to ridicule, al Monre's "Tar-
tutre" was to the Jesuits of h;s day, and, above all, in that
thorough insight into middle life, which she possesses in a
degree far beyond any other novelist, male or female, of the
present day.

BunnEas' BENEVOLENT INSTITIITION.—Yesterday
the third annual meeting of the friends and supporters of
this charity was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-
street ; Mr. Wm. Cubitt, M.P., in the chair. The report
of the directors for the year ending 24th June, 1850, stated
that during that period the contributions to the charity.
had exceeded the expectations of its most sanguine sup-.,
porters, though, considering the various trades with
which builders were connected, the result might have.,
hem fairly anticipated. The donations and subscrip-
tions during the past year amounted to nearly 1,030/. ;
the annual ball, which was celebrated in January, produced
a profit of M., and at the anniversary dinner in June last
upwards of 4001. had been contributed to the funds of the
society. The institution has at the present time 1,600 L, in-
vested in the Three per Cents. Of this sum 500/. had been
contributed for the special purpose of erecting almshouses,
which was one of the principal objects of the founders of the
society. The first election of pensioners was held in October
last, when four persons were chosen from a large number of
candidates, and the directors bad resolved on another eke-
tion in October next, when five pensioners would be admit-
ted to the benefits of the society. In moving the adoption
of the report, the chairman said that the Builders' Benevo-
lent Institution was a charity which deserved a large Mea-
sure of public support, und, considering the influential posi-
tion occupied by the trade, he did not doubt it would
become one of the first and most useful charitableinstitu-
tions in the metropolis. Mr. George Bird, the treasures,
stated that since the report had been drawn up an additional'
sum of 2001. stock had been purchased. A vote of thanks
was then passed to the patrons and officers of the society, and
the outgoing directors having been re-elected, the procek•
ings terminated.
