* " BhB MAJESTY'S Tlrl r TO FRANCE . . ( Continued from our Sixth Page . ) j EC !^ OS 3 tAXD-y >—MO 5 DAT EVESTSG , 8 O'CLOCK , j —This being the day fixed for the grand felt duanpetn , j given by his JIajesty the K jig of the French to Qaeen ] Victoria , the -stole of £ he population of En , increased j as it is by large additions from the neighbouring towns , j -was early on foot . The place selected for tbs / efe dam- ; petre is the Most d'Qrleans , a sweet spot in the middle ; of the Forest uf En , asd * iicate about seven mttea from j the town . In tb . 8 morning , the sty was louring , and a ; little din fell , and great apprehensions were enter- ' fained that the whole affair would be marred , hut towards eleren o ' clock tfce wind turned to the north , ; tbeateospbere cleared , and it was evident that it was [ again to be " l > -nl * PMlippe * weather . " The hour j fixed for the doeuser was haif-pist three o ' clock . The ; drive from En to the forest is exceedingly beautiM . | The fcrest is of great extent , being nearly seTen ' leasnea long by as jnaay broad . It is stndded with ; oaks , bircbfc 3 , and beeches , and every now j and then yen come on some chiming glades , i or comimsiaing views . The forest is a favour- ; ite p ' aee of recreation for the Royal Family , \ and flie Kins has done much to improve it Beanfiful ;
drivss are cst in all directions , and lead to the mast pic- turesque spots . These drives have generally been planned according to the lasts of some member of the fanrly , and are therefore nsme 4 after them . This way yon find one called ths Qaeen ' s road , another the j Piir-cess Clementine ' s , and so forth . The spot chosen ; for the fete chnmpeire has one of the most commanding prospects In the whole forest It b » s an eastern aspect , and overlooks tha lovely and "varied vslley of the j Brfca-le for many miles . Htre a large and handsome test was placed , commanding the best point of "riew , and covers were laid in it feT seveatj-Vwo ioests , ScTenl additional tents were placed In the neighboarhood , f ;? r the convenience of Eervants ^ nd ihewbole .
peepmg as ttey go tferc-ngh some magnificent trees , scattered around them , hid a very pleasiiig tffect . Groups of jaiiy-dressed persons , mixed with soldiers , gensd ' armes , and peasants , were to be seen in all directions lounging under tha trees , and giving a mo 3 t animated and pictn-Tetcse tffect to the whole . Lj France , it is impossible to do anything without the aid of soldkn , and accordingly a fete chompelrc has its modicum of them . 3 "he number tHsploye ^ upon tfrV » occasion was only two companies of infantry and a jqcaJion of cavalry but they "were aitfed by a large number of geiigdtrmsa , rangers of the forest , and othtj hangers on , -who made de whole body of these guardians "very formidable .
The tent and all ih » other etceteras in this / c / e were in vex ? good taste . Tiere was ncne of the sumptuous sppearaacecf the dinner party at the chate&a , but every thing-was simple and unostaniauoua . It is asele * 3 to attempt to give a description of tte good things laid out oa the royal table , although it wcnld not be ytrj difficult to do , seeing that , at the present writing , it is Within a few yards of me . But kings , queers , princes , and great lords eat and flmk like ordinary mortals . , and cold tongues , cold fowls , passes , and champagne s ? e found at thu / rfe diampelre of a King of Fraccr as "well as st the Icrth of a London coeiney . But I mnst say that , in some respects , the arrangements htre art to be preferred to those of t , ur cocknty friends . Ifcsy have lots of attendants who seem , as if made to satisfy v ? en tie most grumbling of gussts . ? fot a wish they leave unsatisfied , and everything is done "witli a silence und regularity which shows the very height of good breeding .
At half-past three o'doci the yonng Count of Paris and the young Prince of WiriEBibiug arrived in a auxiEge-and-four , with ontriders , and attended by their tutor and a yonng companion , the ton of Colonel de Chs ^ annes . I need hardly say that the Count of Paris 3 s grandson to tie TLrng , and heir to the throne ; but ii is not knqwn that the jcasg Prices of Wirteaborg is » Iso a grandson of his Majesty , being the son of the late Princess Mary , who is so well known for her beantifal statne of the Maid of Orleans . The Count of Paris was londly cheered , bnt he took Jlttle notice of the greeting . Like a boy of STe years , he was much more delighted with a large dragon-fly , to which he gave cLace immediately oa alighting from the carriage , than with the applanse of the mnliitade . He 1 b a fine healthy little fellow , and Tery lively in his disposition . A few minutes afterwards the Prince of JaiiTille arrifea on horseback , alone , attended by a single groom , but no notice was taken of him by the
« rowdj nor , as far as I obstrred , by the military . In about hsJf an hour a lar § e party of horsemen arrived , amongst whom were Prince Albert , Prince Augustus of Saxe Cobonrg-. the Bnke de MonrpecsKT , the Duke d'Aumale , and several other gentlemen . Prince Albert was attended by CoL de Chabannea , whom the King ot the French has appointed his temporary aide-decamp . They were londiy cheered on their arrival . In a very few minntes afterwards the cheering in tbB more distant part of the crowd announced the arrival -of the loyal oorifQty and a large party of gensd'armes and entlidtrs , who preceded the royal carriage , arrived . The King ' s char-cat ions immediately followed . It is an optn csrrisga with four tows of seats . The first seat was occupied by tfet King cf the French and Qaeen Victoria . On the Becond Kit the Qseen of the French-and the Qaeen of tha Belgians ; on the third the Dochess of Orleans ; and on tas fonrth tts Print-ss of Jcinville and the Princess demenana Five other ^
orj-oubanc followed , eontaining til the Isoies and gentlemen of the court , excepting those on horseback In the first I observed the JEarls of Aberdeen and Liverpool , 2 > I . ( hrz-it , Gtneral SbbasUarJ , 31 . Isca ^ e laplBgre . and SBTtral of lbs other Ugh Dfirsra of state . The whole of the carriages , with one txceptien , were drawn by six hordes , and each had two or more ontriders . The -cheering on the part both of the multitude and soldiers was immense , and the royal party seemed icnch gratified with it , Qneen Victoria freqaenfly bowing , and the Kin ? of the French also bowjEgand coddisg with ranch familiarity to several gentlemen and iadies whom he recognised among the crowd Immediately upon their alighting from their carriages , the roj-1 party entered the tent , aEd in a TEiy few misntcs sat down to their collation . The IDng of the French sat at the centre of the table , and de Qaftea of Unjlscnd en his right hand . The Quetn of the French sat immediately beside Qneen Victoria .
The conversation seemed to be carried on with great ' snimalacn during the whole time the company remained . ! After sitting for sbont an hour , the King took Qaeen . Victoria ' s arm , and Prince Albert that of the Queen of lie French , thsiest of the party following , and walked s xound the platform in front of the tent , mnch to the de- ! light of tke people , who were allowed to come quite \ close to the royal parly . The cheering was enthusiastic , and the close approach to royalty , which now-a-days is ; a great novelty , had an almost electrical effect od the : people . After a short interval ^ dnring which the Eiig ! coETfexsed with severalcf those ^^^ had tha good for- time to get near him , the whole j ^ K ^ en tered the carriages in the order they arrived , and"TlEOve off for the Cfcatean d'Zn , the cheering Goatinning while they were : ineistt .
las greatattrEctiont-f this affair has been the bustle of preparation . The beaudful driTe through the forest , tile splendour cf the weataer , and the cheering spirits every onB was in . Bnt , above all , the sight cf so many peri cms of the highest xaiik and -station in all Europe , assembled together familiarly for the purposes of resrestion , and permitting themselves to be approached so nearly by those whose curioaity or loyalty made them £ pect 3 tc = ra of the ssete , waB a gTatincaUon of itself which I am sire , amply repaid most of those who were present . I can say lor mytelf , that without knowing exactly what gives ri » e to th » feeling , and knowing th 3 » ihere wss little wonderful or splendid to tell of sffcrTaiJs , I have seldom seen a scene upon which 1 look back with feelings « f greater pleasure-. I ought to have mentioned thai after the royal paaty left the ground , ths soldiers took possession of the royal tent and all that it contained , and in a very short tima the remains of the eatables had disappeared .

( From &e French Papers . ) Tfcs absorbing topic of the Paris journals is the arrival of the Qaeen of England . The Debati says : —•

the snperikr and tried mind which has for thirteen years presided over the destinies of France , and almost of the world . Sach , independently of all nlterior consequences , is the sense of the rlslfc paid by Her Britaanic Slsjfcsty to King Lcui * Philippe , and that alone woulrt suffice for us . In accepting the hospitality of the Kiuj ? , Qneen Victoria has wished to prove her confldence in . and personal attachment for , her august ally and his Koyal family . She has wished also , as Qaeen of England , to give to the constitutional King of France a pledge of political sympathy and gooi harmuny . It is mth this doable object , and we are grateful to her tot it , that the Q ieen of England has come to France ; and it is as the most significative pledge of peace that has been given , perhaps , te our country for the last tbi : tfeen years , that we ball the arrival on our coast of this young Qaeen , "who bears with so much grace and so serene and charming a brow tha weight of the destinies of a great nation . " Tb& Presse expi esses in gracious terms its approbation of the courtesy shown to the Qaeen of England , but takes care to caution the people of Franc * against allowing their politeness to get the better of thenc reason . It adds : — " We are of opinion that if the English Cabinet were to endeavour to turn to account the homage paid to their Queen the French Ministry wonldnot forget its duly . But , were it to do bo , we have the press , we have discussion , that great guarantee of free Governments . " The Globe says : —
" We are far from thinking that this event , memorable as it is , will destroy the rivalry which exists between England and France . Tbe two countries are rivals , because they are equally great , and because their greatntss has similar elements ; but the bringing together of their Sovereigns and of their Ministers will contribute to the removal of mutnal prejudices , and , by facilitating their intercourse , will contribute to the peace of the wsrld . It is in this point of view that tbe visit of the Queen of England to the King of France is a great e ? ent j for there are no
oiber political events better muting the characters of true grandeur than tbose which contribute to tbe peace cf n-ttioss , and , as a coastquence , to their happiness . We tan comprehend that there are men in whom these sou of things inspire only raillery , insults , and even low vulgarities ; for these men desire a revolution in orfer to atquire a reputation or a fortune . We leave such men to spread in bad style the venom of their egotism and of their pride ; and hand them over to the contempt which is tbe natural winding-sheet in which to in " er those whom grand spectacles are powerless to di-vert from their pasaions and their hatreds .

They have been very favourably received , and from present appesrtnees , they are likely to be as successful in this district , as they nave been in the Lotbians , and the connties of Fife and Kinross . Conduct op ths Coal KisGS . — The colliers in tht F-dkiik district ha-ve heavy and loud complaints against some of the coa ! masters , they charge them with not only evading , but absolutely setting the law at defiance It appears that Lord Ashley ' s Bill to prevent
frmaJcs from working ia pits is rendered a cead letter , by the masters assuming to themselves a greater power than both Hcnses of Parliament and the Qieen combined ! It is a positive fact that the females in the Airdrie and Hollytown districts , and indeed throughout Lanarkshire , have never been removed from the pita at all , though Lord Ashley ' s Act has been several mocths ia operation . ' Who says the coal tyrants have r . o povrer ? Who says they have not a riyht to do tcftat Oiey please icifh theib aws ? We recommend the conduct of these genUemen to the consideration ot liOii Ashley and Mr . Fcrrand , during the next sessions of Parliament The- opinion is gaining ground in
Scotland that no Act of Parliament which has a tendency to benefit the condition of the oppressed collier will do them any good , unless inspectors are appointed > y GoTSTEment , to carry the law into iflflct , without fear ot fa-vour , frc-m either roaster or man . This is nothing but just , and what we think the House of Commons will not refuse t-j gi 3 r , t , when they karn the real facts of the case ; In not only is Lord Aifcley ' s , bat the Truck Act Ust &TiO" 2 afl Wffi 4 * -h ) daiiy and most unblushingly evafied an-i set at dtSiEce !

Leeds Woollen Markets . —A gradual and progressive increase is taking place in the amount of bjsiness doing in this district , and we are glad to have to say that every succeeding market day shows a continued improvement . We have seen less stocks of goods in the Cloth Halls than even now , but we hesitate not to say that three months ago , there were more than three times the present quantity of goods on hand in the halls , and this notwithstanding the quantity that during that period has gone in . We are glad the stocks are so much reduced , as now the manufacturers must begin to feel the benefit ef aa improvement which hitherto has been in a great * measure confined to the merchants . We trust tha working population will soon be fully employed ; the warehouses have long been very busy .

Oats the tnrn lower . —Wheat 62 s to Sis per qr . Barley nominal . Oats °£ d to lOd per stone . State of Trade . —Since yesterday week a large amount of business has been done in yarn , at improving prices ; and the market yesterday was extremely firm and elastic , theugh without any great animatioB , as the advance demanded by spinners has , in many cases , exceeded the limits of purchasers . For manufactured goods also the demand continues extensive , and prices are in all oases very firm . We are glad to learn that the recent accounts from tbe
principal European markets , as well as from the United States , are extremely favourable : in Germany , down to" a late period , serious apprehensions were entertained as to the result of the harvest , which gave a great check to business . Recently , however , the weather had become exceedingly favouraWo , and an abundant harvest had been secured in excellent condition . This had given a considerable impetus to the demand for yarn and manufactured goods , and large supplies will probably be required . There is also , we are happy to learn , a steady improvement ia the demand for home consumption ; and the prospects of business are , upon the whole , more favourable thaa for several years past . —Manchester Guardian .

Esparteho in London . —A special Court of Common Council has been held , to consider an address of welcome to General Espartero . Mr . Deputy Peacock eulogised the character oF the General ; and said , in answer to those v » feo charged him with having feathered his nest , that independently of his wife ' s fortune , the General did not possess £ 500 a year . He concluded by moviug resolutions expressing Borrow at the Regent ' s forced retirement from the Government of Spain , as that country , under his patriotic guidance , was making rapid strides in healthful internal policy ; sympathy with the Regent in the frustration of his wise and philanthropic plans ; and hope of his speedy recal . Sir Peter Laurie opposed
the address . As to Espartero s haying only £ 500 a year , he knew that he had taken a house in the Regent's Park worth £ 1 , 000 a year . He censured the General ' s conduct , and especially his leaving Spain without firing a shot . Ho maintained that the Court , as a body had no right to interfere ; and he moved "the previous question . " After a very long dif cussion , in which some of the speakers professed to be convinced in favour of the original motion by Sir Peter ' s arguments against it , the amendment was rejected by a large majority ; and the original motion was affirmed , tht address to be translated into Spanish , and presented by the Lord Mayor . His Lordship intends to give an entertainment to the General , on the occasion of presenting the address .
Dlfeat of the Agnewites . —These good men —the holier than thous—consisting of Sir Andrew himself , Maitland Macgill , Crichton of Baukeillour , Bain , Leadbeater , and Co ., with some of their usual train , assembled on Tuesday week to stop tbe Sunday runniDg of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Bailway , " as a shocking desperating thing , " although quietly speaking , the whole of them had pocketed dividends or profits thereof , and * he Sunday shilling was not a bit worse in their mind ' s eye than the Saturday one . They divided on this recent ocoasion , when the vote stood as follows : — For the continuance of the trains 9399 Against them 1643 Majority against the Agnewites 7756 This is pretty decisive , and should shut the mouths of the babblers , who instead of gaining strength , are rapidly losing ground in Scotland .
The Iron Tra » k . —A movement for tne better may now bo taken not merely as indicated , but as actually made and confirmed . At the last quarterly meeting , it is known a reduction of 133 per ton on manufactured iron took place . This reduction may now be considered as abrogated . Hence the price s'ands as it was about eight weeks ago . ^ Every check to retrogression is of course negative improvement ; and every advance from a state of depression is necessarily an improvement , and possibly a vast one ; but the character of the present improvement remains to be determined by its effects , and these are by no means sufficiently developed to warrant the sanguiDe representation we have seen put forth . We do not doubt that the recurrenco to the old price
will be maintained—we have not the slightest apprehension of a return to the price of tho last few weeks ; but we know that well-informed ironmasters fear that the rise may prove a serious check on the demand . However , it has been made and obtained , while some estabhshmeata , without saying moro than that they expect prices to advance , decline taking orders excepi at next quarter ' s rates . All ths forges and mills , speaking generally , may be stated to be acu ' vely rmpioyed ; but we do not near that any additionnl blast furnaces ha've aB yet been set to work . The i > tock of pig-iron , before most of the furnaces out of blast ceased to work , was enormously heavy , and will take some time to work up . On it an advance of 5 j per ton may be safely noted ;
within a fortnight it could have been obtained at £ 2 15 s . per ton ; now there is a disinclination to part with it . at £ 3- Scotch p ' gs , we saw it stated on good authority , on Monday , continued at £ 1 18 s 6 d ; bars hero may be considered more than firm at £ 4 5 s . In Wales the discount for cash is now £ 3 instead of £ 5 , and there also a corresponding movement in price has taken place . Owing , however , to the great number . of orders delivered in and accepted at the low prices , it will , with several ironmasters , be six or seven weeks or two months before they can get to work fully on the advanoed rates . On Monday most oi t ' ae iron dealers in this town and neighbourhood , who had reduced their prices , made an advance of 10 s . ppr toD on bars , rods , &c . — Wotverhuiriplon
L'hrorticlc-Akcient Reapers . — Two men , of the names of Thomas Hardwick and Robert Chambers , were shearing to ^ tthtr in a fiel d at Laneham , near Rctford . on Saturday la ? t , whose united ages amounted to K 6 years . Both tho octogenarians wero in good health and spirits , and Chambers offers to ride a trotting match against ai . y man in England of tho same age and weight as himself . —Nottingham Jour . Roman Catholic Soldii ks . —The following letter , addressed by a Catholic clergyman at one of our military ststivns iu India , to a gentleman in this country , points out an evil which ought not to be allowed to continue . No soldiers have fought more bravtly for their Qaeen and country than the Irish Catholics , and boih justice and sound policy require
that every facility should be given them for performing thtir religious duties according to the tenets of their own creed . The writer says : — " 1 have under my care about 700 to 801 ) as fine ff Hows as ever came from God ' s own country ; for many years they had not seen the face of a clergyman , although , poor fellows , they sadly wanted the assistance of one . ' But most snbjtct is the fattest soil to weeds . ' That the soil was good has been proved by the return it has made to my labours . There are some teetotallers amongst them who have most materially assisted me ; but , total abstinence is discountenanced by the commanding officers and medical men here , in consequence of the insalubrity of the water . Had you seen tbe soldiers as Madras , you would think ,
I am sure , that you were in the green island once more . There both the bishop and clergy are staunch in the cause , and a Caiholiosoldier guilty of drunkenness or swearing , ot of not attending to tho sacraments , would cause as much wonder as a fall of snow in the month of June . < onsidcriBg the difficulties 1 have had to coutend with , very much has been done here , and much more would have been done in this way , had not certain persons , who ehall be nameless , thought it better ihat soldiers should be lost , as orthodox , drinking , swearing Protestants , than that they should owe the amendment of their lives to the priest . Woe betide any Protestant who shall bo
fonnd wilbin the doors of the low , close , dirty barrack-room , in which the Hon . Company permit the Catholic soldiers to practise their religion at their own expense ; whilst their Protesta-nt comrades are lounging in spacious pews in a large airy church , with ponchas swinging over their heads , and battles at the windows to cool them in their devotions , and ail to a flaming tirade about tbe Spanish Armada , or Bloody Alary , or the idolatry of transubsta&tiation , or the Lord knows what , from a chaplain who thinks he can thus give better value for the 1 , 100 rupees a month , which he receives as his sublunary reward , rather than by warning his hearers from the canteen , the brothel , or gamiug-table .

The bodies of the crew have not been found .
Rebeccaism , we are sorry to see , in several eases , is geitinn worse , and a different class of persons , with different objeets , have taken the field . Malice and personal spite , wanton outrage and unreasoning riot , have in these cases made head . But on the other hand public meetings have been held , at which thousands in the face of day have fairly made known all their wrongs , real or unreal . Such meetings are the safety valves of popular etfervesAnce , and they ought to be encouraged by every friend to peace » nd prosperity . Besides being the media of redress to , and tending to the restoration of , peace and order , the very fact of their being held shows that the people are beginning ( bowever awkwardly ) ; j get the right foot foremost . — Welshman

The excavations for a nunnery , to contain thirty inmatee , between the village of Sileby and Ratcliffe Hall , Leicestershire , were commenced last week . Dreadful Murder at Cobham Park . On Tuesday morning week , as Mr . Abraham Lyster , a butcher , of Rochester , with his nephew , Mr . Charles Lyster , was driving a one-horse chaise through Cobham-parK , on their road for Wrotham cattle market , they discovered , just before entering the _ village of Cobham , a gentlemanly-looking man lying in the park on bis face , with his arms extended over his , head , and without his hat . On arriving at the body they found he was dead and covered with blood . On their turning the body over , they found a deep wound
in the neck , and also some extensive wounds on the left breast ; in the deceased ' B pockets were three sovereigns and a gold watch . Au inquest was afterwards held over the body , when the jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against some person or persons unknown . " It has since been ascertained that the murderer of the unfortunate gentleman is no other than his third son , Richard Dabb , a fine young man twenty-four years of age , and that he committed the act while labouring under mental aberration . He was an artist of some celebrity , and gained several prizes at the Royal Academy . The police have bcoured the country round for miles , but not the slightest trace of the young man has been discovered . It is generally supposed that he has made away with himself .
Dreadful Accident at the Royai , Exchange . —On Tuesday one of the men engaged in the sculpturing the slab under the balustrade in front of the Exchange lost his balance , and was precipitated with frightful rapidity to the bottom , where he was found in a frightfully mangled state . The most prompt surgical assistance was procured , and the wretched sufferer was immediately removed to the hospital , where . it is said , he expired shortly after his admission . The supposition is that be had stepped backward to observe how he was executing his work , when he lost his footing on the platform where he was standing and fell . The spectators were unanimous in their condemnation of the unprotected platforms upon which the pen arc to work , at so frightful a height from the pavement . A barrier of two or three poles would prevent such accidents .
The Irish Linen Trade—The following ia the lask Belfast report : — " We are happy to say , that the extensive demand for flax and tow y ; u-na which we have previously noticed yet continues ; tbe present demand is almost entirely from our weavers , as more linen cloth is producing in tbe north of Ireland now than at , any former period . Prices of yarns remain at former low rates . A slight advance is obtained on many kinds of linen cloth . " An obdkr of tbe House of Commons , as to the number of nun still belonging to the Irish yeomanry , induced several of the Captains to parade their companies , which gave rise to tbe rumour that this force was to be again embodied . But tbe Government has declined all offers of service , announcing that there is no intention of calling out either tbe Irish yeomanry or militia .
