THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY MOANING, OCTOBER 14, 1644

pression of loyal devotion and attachment with which
her Majesty was invariably cheered during her sojourn
at the Chateau, and in the beautiful environs of Eu.
" We are sensible, Sire, that to the wisdom and vigour
of your Majesty's councils, and to your increasing en-
deavours to promote the truest interest of the powerful
and generous nation which Providence has committed to
your care, may be greatly attributed the reigning tran-
quillity of Europe, and we venture to augur, that by en-
couraging a friendly and personal intercourse between
your Majesty and the Sovereign of Great Britain, your
Majesty adopts the surest means, not only of strengthen-
ing the happy and stable alliance between the two coun-
tries, but of encouraging the Governments of surrounding
kingdoms in the maintenance of their present amicable
relations with each other.

" May your Majesty be long spared, in unison with
our Gracious Sovereign, to cultivate the arts of peace.
May your Majesty's constant and zealous exertions to
advance the general welfare of mankind be crowned by
the dutiful and loyal attachment of all classes of the gal-
lant and enlightened people whose destinies are placed
under the wise and paternal government of your Ma-
jesty ; and may the two mighty empires of Great Bri-
tain and France be so indissolubly connected by the re-
lations of amity and concord, as to ensure and perpetuate
to both, and the world at large, the blessings of un-
interrupted peace and repose.
Given under the common seal of the said Mayor,
Aldermen, and Burgesses, at the Guildhall, in the said
borough, on the Bth day of October, in the eighth year
of the reign of our Sovereign Lady Victoria, by the
grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland Queen, Defender of the Faith, in the year
of our Lord one thousand eight-hundred and forty-four."
The Town Clerk, having read the address, returned
it to the mayor, who placed it in the hands of the King
of the French, by whom it was most graciously received.
His Majesty having handed the document to M. Guizot,
who stood immediately upon the King's right, advanced
somewhat nearer to the Corporation than the position he
had previously occupied, and addressing himself to that
body, spoke as follows :

"-Mr: Mayor, .Aldermen, and Burgesses of the bo-
rough of Windsor,—l feel most grateful to her Majesty
Queen Victriria for having permitted you to present this
address t',-) me. I receive it with the most cordial thanks,
imprP:ssed with the kind reception I have met with from
al). classes of her Majesty's subjects since my arrival in
this country. I was most happy last year to perceive the
sentiments of the French people, when her Majesty fa-
voured: me with a visit at Eu. I was most happy to
entertain her Majesty under my own roof on that occa-
sion, and rejoiced at the interchange of social feelings
which then took place. The union of France and Eng-
land is of great importance to both nations, not from
any wish of aggrandisement, however. Our view should
be peace, while we leave every other country in the pos-
session of those blessings which it has pleased Divine
Providence to bestow on them. Happy I am that you
appreciate my constant endeavours, assisted by a wise
Government at home, to promote the most friendly and
peaceful relations between the two countries. France
has nothing to ask of England, and England has nothing
to ask of France, but cordial union. I thank you for
this very kind address, and I consider it a privilege that
I have had the good fortune to express before you the
sentiments with which my heart is filled."
The above excellent reply was spoken by his Majesty
with marked emphasis and feeling. In alluding to the
desirableness of maintaining peace between the two
countries, his Majesty spoke with considerable energy
and fluency, and, at the close of his remarks, bowed
courteously to each of the deputation, alI of whom imme-
diately retired from the royal presence.

GRAND NAVAL BALL TO THE
OFFICERS OF THE FRENCH SQUADRON.
PORTSMOUTH, SATURDAY, ONE O'CLOCK, A.N.—This
magnificent fete, given by the British officers of the ships
in commission at this port, to the officers of the French
squadron, is now in its zenith, and a more splendid or
exhilirating spectacle than the entertainment, at this
moment, was perhaps seldom before witnessed.
The place chosen for the ball-room is the spacious
quadrangle of the Royal Naval College, which has been
formed into a pavilion, beautifully tapestried from the
ceiling to the floor with the flags and ensigns of all na-
tions, amongst which the royal standard of England is
naturally most conspicuous. The floor (a boarded one
of course) is elegantly carpeted, and the immense area
is lighted by three splendid chandeliers suspended from
the ceiling, which throw a flood of light on the beautiful
and glittering throng below. A large transparency,
with medallion likenesses of King Louis Philippe and
Queen Victoria, with the French and English crowns,
and the initials L. P. V." wreathed with palm branches,
ornaments the extreme end of the ball-room, opposite
the grand entrance, and above the orchestra occupied by
Weippert's band. This specimen of art, we understand,
was executed by Mr. Martin, of the dockyard, assisted
by one of the naval officers, at a moment's notice, entirely
from memory, and without the aid of a copy ; and taking
this latter circumstance into consideration, it is really a
very creditable performance.
Over the grand entrance, in the interior of the ball-
room, is a radiant sun formed with broad swords, the
centre-piece being a shining metal imitation of the orb
of day, and along the walls a quantity of musketry and
other arms are displayed in a manner similar to that
adopted in the guard-chambers of our various royal
palaces. There are three orchestras, two fitted up as
side galleries, occupied respectively by the Marine band
and the band of the 59th Regiment, and the third, at the
extreme end, occupied, as we have already stated, by
Weipperc's celebrated quadrille band. The band, play
alternately, and (as every where else) the Polka is still
in the ascendant. Beyond the ball-room, and occupying
the space known as the covered-way, is the supper-room,
where the celebrated Gunter reigns lord paramount, and
here taste has done its utmost to gratify both eye and
palate in most lavish profusion, and wines and liquors of
the choicest and most expensive kind flow forth in the
richest abundance, whilst beautiful vases, containing the
rarest exotic and autumnal flowers, send forth their
grateful perfume, gratifying every sense, and leaving
hardly a wish unprovided for. This apartment is lighted
from gold and silver candelabra. The number of per-
sons present is variously estimated at 1,150, 1,200, and
1,300, and we believe that the last-mentioned
number is not an exaggeration. The company began to
arrive about nine o'clock, and were received by a number
of officers in full uniform. The entrance-hall and pass-
age to the ball-room were decorated in a similar manner
to that already described, the former being lighted up
by a brilliant star of Brunswick. The exterior of the
building was handsomely illuminated with myriads of
variegated lamps, the impressive word " Welcome"
being displayed along the entire front of the college.
The orrery was fitted up in the most handsome manner,
as a reception-room for the ladies, and the fencing-room
was used as a cloak-rbore, and the library, for the first
time, was occupied by card parties. The students'
dining-room was the only apartment in the building not
converted from its usual purpose, it having been devoted
to the dispensation of refreshments.
The following officers acted as stewards, and were
decorated with elegant favours of white satin, orna
mented with silver flowers :—Admiral Sir Charles
Rowley, Rear-Admiral Parker, Captain Lord Adolphus
Fitzclaronce, Captain Rowley, Commander Lowe, Com-
mander Crawford, Captain Corry, Captain Mowbray,
Commander Matson, Commander Harris, Commander
Thompson, Lieutenant Cracroft, Lieutenant Fade, Lieu-
tenant Farro, Lieutenant Shere, Commander Shering-
ham, Lieutenant Chamberlain, Lieutenant Hynde,
Lieutenant Herbert, Mr. Pechell, Mr. Kerr, Mr.
Clerk, &c.

Daring the setting down of the company. which lasted
from nine until twelve o'clock, the stewards had cer-
tainly no sinecure, for, faithful as sentinels, there stood
Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, and a glittering array of
colleagues, vieing with each other in polite attention to
their guests. Outside the gates of the Dockyard the
scene, as regarded the continuous stream of carriages,
more resembled St. James's-street on a Drawing-room
day than a mere sea-port ball, conceived in a hurry, and
carried into effect with only a few days' note of prepara-
tion. The line of vehicles appeared almost intermin-
able and here the resemblance to the Court gala ceases,
for almost every description of conveyance, from the
aristocratic carriage to the, humble one-horse fly, ap-
peared to have been pressed into the service for the
occasion. Antiquated stage-coaches, railway omni-
buses, and obsolete post-chaises, all did duty, the latter
with an affected air of former briskness which would
have excited even the sympathy of a road-side innkeeper.
The floating bridge which plies between Gosport and
Portsmouth, and which usually rests from its labours at
ten o'clock, was kept going backward and forward
during the entire night for the convenience of the nu-
merous guests who came from Southampton and the
neighbourhood of the New Forest.

The last trains from London contributed not a little to
swell the list of the company ; but so dilatory was the
ingress through the single gate of the Dock-yard, which
had to let the empty carriages pass out as well as to
admit the full ones, that numerous parties were obliged
to quit their vehicles and proceed to the ball-room on
foot. Owing to the anxiety of some parties to gain early
admittance, and who were thereby induced to attempt to
break into the rank, several casualties occurred, which
are likely to afford employment to the coach-wrights of
the vicinity for some time to come. The police being
occasionally obliged to shut the gate rather abruptly, the
horses of the first carriage were frequently startled back,
and in a moment the crashing of poles and panels ran
like electricity through the entire chain. With the ex-
ception of this unavoidable inconvenience the whole of
the arrangements were admirable, and nothing could ex-
ceed the order and regularity with which the entire
affair was conducted. At half-past ten o'clock, Admiral
La Susse and the other French officers who had dined
with Admiral Parker at his residence in the Dock-yard,
arrived in a suite of carriages at the ball-room, and, im-
mediately on their entrance, the band of the 59th Regi-
ment struck up La Parisienne. From this moment the
enjoyment grew " fast and furious," and never was
such a scene witnessed in Portsmouth or its neighbour-
hood before.

___....

On Friday a very full meeting of the medical profes-
sion of Bristol, to take into consideration the new Bill
brought in by Sir James Graham, was held in the theatre
of the Philosophical Institution.
Mr. W. MormsiEa, having been called to the chair,
briefly opened the proceedings, and called upon
Dr. Sraimosis, who, in moving the first resolution, said
he thought they were greatly indebted to her Majesty's
Government

brought Graham
of medical reform. He thought the Bill, as a whole, had
been carefully framed, though is was faulty in some of
its clauses. There could be but one opinion as to the
advantages which would arise from the appointment of
a central council of health; an authorised register of
legally qualified practitioners would be also highly ad-
vantsgeous. But, while he thus confessed his ap-
proval of the Bill as a whole, he was not blind to its
faults, the principal of which was the want of proper
protection to the qualified practitioner. They ought,
therefore, to demand such protection, and that the
charlatan or contraband practitioner should be subject
to penal consoquences. He knew it might be said, the
register would be open to the public, who might
thus select properly qualified practitioners, and
that it was a part of the liberty of an Englishman
to select whom he pleased ; for, if they were foolish
enough to select unqualified persons, they weuld them-
selves suffer for their folly. But he would ask, was it
just for the Government to encourage imposture, or was
it correct for a Government to allow the public health
to be placed at the mercy of unskilful pretenders ?
They certainly ought not to go before the Government
with an argument= ad inisencordiam, but they ought to
speak firmly, but respectfully, and demand that protec-•
tion to which they were entitled from the toils, the diffi-
culties, and the expense of the education which they had
to acquire before entering on practise. They all knew
that the medical practitioners had to toil from early
dawn to dewy eve, and were often deprived of their rest
for perhaps three nights in the week, and if for this any
one of them obtained a remuneration equal to that ob-
tained by some person who ministered only to the arti-
ficial tastes of mankind, they were considered to .be rp-
ceiving a wonderful income. •Dr. Symtnoifg tlrp4 niOed'
•• - •
the following resolution '
" That this meeting has great pleasure in ientpressin'g
its obligation to Sir James ,Graham and her lliajest,'s
Government for bringing before the Legisliiture• .1"
long-agitated question of Medical .referm, and also for
laying the ' Bill for the better-Regulation:of-Medical
Practice throughout the United Kingdom' on the table
of the House of Commons, so that it may ba well gin-
sidered by the medical profession during the Parliamen-
tary recess."
Mr. COLTUURST having seconded the resolution, it
was carried unanimously.
Mr. in moving the second resolution,
saidthj. Cath:tySArNE'
having been in practice for several years pre-
•vious to the passing of the Apothecaries Act, he could
bear testimony to the many benefits which had arisen
from it. Nothing could be more marked than the de-
cided improvement in the education and respectability
of the medical practitioners since that period ; although
when the profession endeavoured to get an Act, it was
not intended to give the Apothecaries Company the
powers they afterwards obtained under the Act, yet they
had found
who in that
having oncecompan undertakes
y men of
the intelligencetask hadand i in-
tegrity, tegri ty w
car-
ried it out in a most exemplary manner, and had in-
stituted regulations, and examinations, which hadgreatly
raised the character of the profession. By the Apothe-
caries Act powers were given of legalising practitioners,
and of punishing those who practised without passing
the proper examinations and having pursued the pre-
scribed course of study, and he for one thought the for-
mer part of that Act would have been of very little use
but for the power of punishment ; besides, it was well
known that many medical students, as well as other per-
sons, would shirk the labour of the extreme study which

A serious accident occurred at the station of the
Bristol and Gloucester Railway, Gloucester, on Monday
evening. By an arrangement, which appears to us ob-
jectionable, the immense concourse of persons, 1,500 or
1,600 in number, who had arrived here by special train,
when the time for returning approached, were shut out of
the yard till almost the last moment. The consequence
was, that on the gates being opened, a tremendous rush
and confusion took place, and one man, in attempting to
force his way into a carriage, was pushed backwards,
and falling on the buffer, broke his thigh. lie was car-

(RECEIVED LAST NIGHT.)
NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.
NEWMARKET, SUNDAIt, Two" O'CLOCK, P.M.
In the programme of the ensuing meeting, published
on Saturday, we indicated by an asterisk the horses that
were in the town up to Friday, omitting, however,
Jamal, who should have been included in the arrivals.
Since that time the following have arrived : —Lord
Eglinton',s Plaudit, Britannia, and Jamie Falshaw—Lord
Glasgow's Give-him-a-Name, Sister to Give-him-a-
Name, and colt by Velocipede, out of Amulet—Mr. I.
Day's Zelinda filly—Mr. Payne's Sir Francis, Johnny,
Queen Mab, Mania, and Walpole—Mr. Greville's Rigo-
lette and Jamaica—Lord Stradbroke's Jeremy Diddler,
Evenus, and Boarding-school Miss—Mr. Ramsbottom's
Pine Apple and Brush—Mr. May's Corinthian Ton, and
f by Bentley, out of Battersea Lass—Mr. Hook's Una—
Mr. E. Clarke's Sir Edward—Lord Verulam's Charlotte
—Mr. Griffith's Wild Rose—Mr. Walter's My Mary—Mr.
Denham's Julia—Mr. Buckley's David—Mr. Meiklam's
Aristotle—Sir C. Monck's Glossy—Mr.Dawson's Light-
ning—Mr. G. Moore's The Bride—Mr. Worley's Example
—Colonel Anson's Marquise—Lord Chesterfield's Knight
of the Whistle, Cockfigh ter' Tiddly Winks, f by Hornsea
out of Gamelass, 2 yrs, fby Hornsea, dam by Sultan,
2 yrs, and f by Hornsea out of Industry, 2 yrs, and
several others ; making the number now in the town
greater than has been known in the memory of the oldest
inhabitant ; as a proof we may mention that, out of the
forty-six horses engaged in the Cesarewitch, all are on
the spot except Campanero, who broke down at Stam-
ford, Pickpocket, liaitoe, The Currier, Telemachus,
Rowena, William le Gros, and Everton. Una pulled
up lame yeAerday morning. Lord Albemarle in,
tends to run the Emperor and The Brewer, but
not Delapre. It is not unlikely that William
le Gros will come ; he ran second to Alice
Hawthorn at Dumfries, and on the following night
was backed at Manchester, at 14, 15, and 16 to 1.
John Day has nothing here at present ; Old England
will arrive to-morrow, but from the number of horses
amiss in the stable, it is doubtful whether anything else
will come. As yet, the arrivals are few ; but, from the
orders for post-horses, and the number of places secured
for the extra coaches, there is every reason for expecting
one of the fullest meetings ever known. The only
fashionable names that have reached us are the Earl and
Countess of Chesterfield, Earl and Countess of Albe-
marle, Earl and Countess of Miltown, Lord C. Manners,
the Hon. Capt. and Mrs. Rous, the Hon. Colonel and Mrs.
Anson, Hon. H. Forester, Hon. Capt. Spencer, Co-

" That this meeting cannot concur in the justice er
propriety of abolishing the existing enactments against
unqualified practitioners, upon the plea of their ineffi-
ciency', but urges the practicability of making the law in
this respect more simple and effective."
Mr. STAPLES seconded the resolution, which was
passed unanimously.
Mr. WALDO moved the third resolution :
" That this meeting considers the appointment of a
Council of Health and Medical Education' to be highly
advantageous. but that its constitution is unsatisfactory,
inasmuch as the " Licentiates of Medicine and Surgery'
are nut adequately represented."
Carried unanimously.
Dr. O'BRIEN moved the fourth resolution

Some showers fell yesterday afternoon and the course
of the night, but the ground is still harder than trainers
like ; a few hours of steady rain would be of immense
service in this neghbourhood. The Ratan case comes

Old Vauxhall has cicsea its career for ever ; but a
new one, in a More elevated 'spot, amid the fashionable
world, is preparing to take its place, and entirely put
in the shade all the former great doings of the old
school. Littlejohn, long famed for his great tact,
has added another and important wreath to his laurels
by the style in which he has opened the Rosherville
Gardens. By this enterprise ho has this season put
seven thousand pounds of clear gain into his pocket.
Next year he intends that Cremorne House (nearthe site
of the Ranelagh Gardens in the olden time) shall
eclipse even the transcendant fame of Rosherville. We
see in our columns the miscellaneous appendages
about these beautiful grounds do not accord with his
views of the present times, and are consequently con-
signed to the hammer this month, in order that
the approaching season may open with all the éclat
which novelty and splendour combined will neces-
sarily ensure.
PARIS AND ROUEN RAILWAY. —At the present
rate of dividend, the shares would, to be on a par with
the average price of the English lines, range about 551.
or 561. The price of this stock is the subject of general
remark. The meeting takes place on the 31st of this
month. This is the answer to a correspondent of last
week.—Railway Record. _

THE ATMOSPHERIC RAILWAY.—An intelligent
correspondent says :—" I can confirm from personal
knowledge your refutation of the Railway Magazine's
assertion as to the opinion of the Great Western Di-
rectors of the atmospheric system. But I know also that
Mr. Saunders still entertains strong doubts of the faci-
lity of working the traffic of a long line on the single at-
mospheric way (owing to its inflexibility,) particularly
in connection with a locomotive line, the strictest punc-
tuality in starting the atmospheric trains being essential
to secure safety at the sidings where the up and down
trains pass, and to prevent delay ; whereas the locomo-
tive system cannot secure such great punctuality, nor
essentially requires it with a double line. You have done
so much to engage public favour in behalf of this admi-
rable invention, that the discussion of these points and
illustration of the mode of working the atmospheric
sidings would be of the highest value."—Railwayßecerd.
We understand that the King of the French has
been obliged to decline the Duke of Devonshire's cour-
teous invitation to Chatsworth. His Majesty's engage-
ments cannot permit of the King to prolong his sojourn
in this country beyond Monday next, the day originally
appointed for his Majesty's departure.
PETERBOROUGH.—It is rather remarkable that not a
single case of pocket-picking or robbery of any descrip-
tion at the late Peterborough fair has been brought to the
notice of the Magistrates, either for the liberty or for
Huntingdonshire, nor have we heard of any theft having
been commtited ; such a circumstance has not been
been known for many years.—Cambridge Chronicle.

" That this meeting views with much satisfaction the
beneficial results that must accruo from an authorised
register of licensed practitioners, especially if such be
compulsory and published annually.
Carried unanimously.
Mr. SMERDON proposed, and Mr. STANTON seconded,
the fifth resolution, which, after some discussion and the
addition of some words, was passed in the following
form t--

POST-OFFICE MONEY ORDERS.— the suggestions
for an alteration in the rate charged on Post-office money
orders, noticed two days ago, have elicited some remarks
on the side of the deputy post-masters, some of whom
consider that they are not sufficiently remunerated for
the increased trouble and risk -they incur in performing
the part of their duty to which these money orders be-
long. Since the Government have taken the money-
order business into their own hands, it is said that the
number of orders issued and paid has increased tenfold,
and the revenue derived from them has increased 400 or
500 per cent. The trifling sum the postmasters receive
per quarter, in lieu of their original .fises does not, they
think, give them a proportionate share of the general
benefit derived, especially as they are put to the ex-
penses of account books for the purpose,- and have to
pay a fine of 2d. whenever an error is committed. What
with the expenses, and what with fines, the deputy post-
masters seem to be of opinion that nearly the whole of
their allowance is absorbed. That they do work enough
for their money,is shown by the fact, which they bring
forward, that every deputy postmaster who grants"-the
Order has to make five separate entries, and that the
deput' paling has to make four,— Times.

" That this meeting believes the penal clauses will
be inoperative in defending her Majesty's subjects from
the mischievous practices of ignorant and unskilful pre-
tenders, as expressed in the preamble of the Bill, unless
they include all those who act in the capacity of a me-
dical man without legal qualification, for the purpesc of
gain. And that we hereby call on the Government to
introduce a stringent clause into their Bill prohibiting
unauthorised practice by a penal enactment, to be car-
ried into effect by some cheap and easy proceeding
before a bench of magistrates, or by any other mode
of access."

Petitions were then adopted to both Houses of Par-
liament, and the meeting, which was a most respectable
one, broke up.
