~ JULLIENS FARE UELL BENEFIT.

One of the largest audiences assembled III New
York attended this festival last night. All that
Gently had occasion TO say cspectng the phenomena
crowd the original Musical Congresso vast that ord
nary calculation is set at defiance to estimate ITS num-
bers-ay be repeated without variation in reference to
the gathering of last night Ii seemed to us that the
largest audiences Castle Garden quadruped here,
and every place in the Palace where sandngwe do not
say hearing-room could be obtained, was packed with
human beings The drawbacks to successful addition OF
the entertainment were so great that shall not attempt
any criticism of the pieces rendered last night and
have nothing fresh add to notice of the old. The
entertainment was onehird longer than ordinary con-
certs and was we'll received throughout numerous
chorus composed mainly of the Harmonic Society, per-
formed in connection with the monster orchestra
Before the conclusion of the first part of the programme
agreeable ceremony took place not mentioned in the
bills but of which had given the public an mixing
and which probably of the attractions OF part
of the asemblage which witnessed IT, IL was as follows;
Mr.. Fry acended the platform, and having obtained the
hearing of some twenty thousand people proceeded to
say that the President and Directors Of the Crystal Palace
and the performing members of the Musical Congress had
ntrusted him with the pleasurabe and honorable duty OF
offering Mr.. Julien material and memorable token of
the estimation in which his services musical artist
were held. Mr.. Fry then took gold wreath,-a very
valuable work of its kind-and presented It to Mr.. Jul
len-the Committee of Presentation also assisting. This
wreath subscribed for by the performing members
chiefly, and by other admirers OF Mr.. Julien The
Committee was composed of Mr. Brstow and various
other eminent professors. Mr. Fry then spoke for about
FIVE minutes the subjectmatter of the presentation
The whole was attended with immense cheering from
audience which Mr.. Fry said large in numbers
the free citizens of ancient Athens.he State of antiquity
however, which had given the great models in art.
Mr. Julien evidently and unafec,edly embarrassed by
the compliment proceeded to reply at first with hesi
aton, but warming with his subject spoke ueny and to
the point. He modestly acknowledged the honor, and
paid tribute the genius aud talent which he had found
in this country. His remarks concluded with feeling
adeu and he retired amid three hearty cheers given BY
the whole audience.

In the Senate yesterday Mr.. Clayton introduced his
hill for the prevention of the African slave trade by
American ships; its provisions are stringent. The
Boston petition against the Fugitive Slave law was
then taken up. Mr. Jones of Tennessee vehemently
denounced il, as he did the Ant-Nebraska address
lately published by members of Congress Mr.. Rock
well aud Mr. Sumner replied TO him, the latter com
pairing the Fugitive Slave law with the stamp ACT OF
I76G. Mr.. Butler retorcd upon Mr.. Sumner IN per-
sorsl and unidentified manner. Mr.. Mason followed
with defense of the Fugitive law Mr.. Petit also
pdul.ed in tilt az Mr. Sumner, but did not seem 10
do him much harm.
In the House of Representatives. the day was de-
/ voted 70 the discussion of the Gadsden treaty Mr.
BENTON proposed series OF resolutions to the eiect
that the treaty was violation of the privileges OF the
IIouse and asked the Speaker to decide that these
resolutions must take the precedence of all other
questions and be debated and acted on in preference
to the treaty itself The Speaker overrued the point
and the House went into Committee on the bill APP
propriating ten millions for the treaty Mr.. Houston
Of Ala. as Chairman of the Committee on Foreign
Affairs abstaned from making speech in favor OF the
appropriation, but gave notice that he should move
TO close the debate to-day tuesday, Mr.. Benton
made an elaborate speech against the treaty, on the
ground of its violating the prerogatve OF the House
by giving TO the Executive the control of the national
purse as well of the sword and also on the ground
that the land cedcd BY Mexico is utterly valueeSs
for any use to which we can put 1t, and that the
abandonment of the obnoxious article of the Gaude-
lupe Hdalgo treaty is worth such sum as that we
propose to pay for it. Mr. Bsyly replied.

THE HIGH PRICES OF FOOD.

respected correspondent inquiries as to what
causes the high prices of provisions, which, as he
says, row occasion great deal of suffering among
those who work for their living in this City and
other large towns and who would be glad have that
living such every honest and industrious laborer is
fairly entitled to. Our correspondent inquiries
whether the present high prices are not owing to the
fact that spectators bought up all the provisions last
fall and winter Very likely they did ths-but soft will
be every fall and winter and reason why men
should not gamble with -four, or potatoes, butter
for stakes as well as fancy stocks in Wall.st
The law Of demand and supply must rule the prices
of food as well as Of other things. II more provi-
sons were produced, the prices would be less, and
there would be more difficulty in buying up and con-
trolling the market. We have too many consumers
for the producers. and we hope the difficulty Of
getting food will drive Thousands Of them TO the
country to cuti,atethe millions of waste, rich acres

ExPLANAroRY.-We have received note from gen.
teman in Berks County, Pa, stating the reason why the
salary of the County Superintendent OF Schools was fixed
at the small of $3.50. 1t appears that the School
Directors in that County have been accustomed to visit
the Schools and propose to superntend them hereafter
and do without charge while the Superintendent Is
only required to examine the teachers of the different
schools. For that service $3.50 year deemed ample
remuneration. TIE law informed does not require
the Superintendent visit the schools If this is true the
statute is defective To visit the schools is exactly the
duty the Superintendent should be required TO perform
Unless he will do this the Office is of no importance

TIE LoHion Times is no doubt very able ana very
powerful Journal but it is difficult 70 how with It's sud
den and frequent changes opinion important ques
tons. il retain the public respect and confidence
striking Illustration of s weathercock facility OF whirng
about afforded b. s the changes in the
British Ministry On Friday June 9, Tae Times not only
said that Sir George Grey would be appointed Colonial
Secretary bn that he perhaps, the mos, eminent OF
the many Wings who necessarily omitted when the
Coalition Cabinet formed; tina, he was regarded by
men all parties with respect and esteem and that his
aproinment would be received With satisfaction Thus
on Friday Sir George very decidedly indorsed and
pa;ted on the back by the leading Journal bu;
urday the wind had changed the appointment of Sir
George TO this very office warmly condemned, and he
himself was set down less remarkable for his adminstra
tive abilities than for the purity of his private charac
ter" This gentle slap in Sir Georges face is, how
ever nothing what he gets Monday when the world
is told tina; he Is likely be worked upon by influences
and directed by counses which the remote portions OF
the British Empire deem fatal TO their interests and
most hostile TO their prosperity Moreover instead oil
giving universal satisfaction were assured Il must
on Friday, bis appointment must be regarded as slight
to all members OF the Government holding offices nter
" or to that Of Secretary of State.
1t is unnecessary add that these attacks upon the
new Minister are put forth without anything by way Of
apology or explanation for their disagreement with the
praise OF him uttered in the columns but two days be-
fore If 10 is human, the GOODNESS with which Tie
Times not only rcraces but ignores It's errors has about
ii something supernatural AMI sublime.
