FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT. LONDON, THURSDAY EVEXIXG. The Prince and Princess of Wales are remaining at Marlborough House and I believe her royal highness has to refrain from appearing much in public. They are both in excellent health. Prince Alfred arrived at Alfred House yesterday. An affidavit of Lord Brougham, dated Cannes, April 22, and it letter of Mr. William Brougham, have been published they deny all Mr. Edmunds' statements re- specting them; aud the Report of the Committee, which was yesterday brought up, completely exonerates Lord Brougham, but is very severe on Mr. William Brougham. With respect to the Lord Chancellor, it states that the Committee cannot coincide with the Lord Chancellor in his opinion, that it was not his duty to communicate what lie knew of Mr. Edmund's defalca- tions to their Lordships but they had no reason to believe that tie was influenced by an unworthy motive in not making the communication. This qualification was not in the original report, and was only carried when moved by Lord Taunton, one of the Lord Chan- cellor's friends, by a majority of one. The Peers who voted for its omission were Earls Der- by, Graham, and Malmesbury, Viscount Hutchinson and Lord Chelmsford. Those who supported the qua- lifying phrase were the Earl Granville, the Duke of So- merset, the Earl of Clarendon, Lord Panmure, Lord Stanley of Alderley, and Lord Taunton. If you or your friends come to London, you must visit the Exhibition of the Royal Academy, to see Mr. Frith's picture of the Royal Marriage, which is one of the wonders of art." The place and the persons are alike faithfully represented. There is a vast assemblage of the most distinguished persons in the land, the like- nesses of all, I have no doubt, being faithfully preserved —as they are of those with whose features I am fami- liar. All the royal family are there, except Prince Al- fred and the Princess Alice and they may be at once recognised by anyone who has seen the originals. The painting is most artistic, so admirably are the colours managed for effect; and I do not wonder that it is the first picture of which the visitor endeavours to get a glimpse. It occupies what is considered the post of honour, in the East Room,—being No. 52 in the Ca- talogue. The Dublin Exhibition, which opens on Tuesday, is likely to prove very attractive. It will be held in a new building, which competent judges affirm to be "the most successful combination of iron and glass that has as yet been erected." It is not to be taken down, like the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, and the Exhibition Building at Kensington, but will form a permanent win- ter garden. The Exhibition will iuclude the Fine Arts, as well as Industry and Science and her Majesty has sent several pictures from her collection. Many of the nobility also contribute to this department. It is also expected that the Indian department will be rich and beautiful: it is under the management of a special com- mittee, the presidentship of which has been accepted by Lord Gough. From all I cau learn, this Exhibition

NEWS OF THE WEEK. Monday was the 15th anniversary of the birth of his Royal Highness Prince Arthur, and it was celebrated at Windsor with the usual de- monstrations.—On tlJat day, the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at Marlborough House, from Sandringham. The War Office has published the Report of General Walpole on the Volunteer Review at Brighton on Easter Monday. He finds some technical fault with the marching past; but speaks in the highest terms of the way in which all the other movements were effected. The Commander- in-Chief, and the Earl de Grey and Ripon both expressed their approval of the Report. The private view of the Exhibition of the Royal Academy took place on Friday and on Saturday the annual dinner was held, Sir Charles Eastlake, the President of the Academy in the chair. Amongst the company were the Duke of 'Cam- bridge, the Archbishops of Canterbury, York and Dublin the Duke of Somerset, the Earl of Derby, Earl Russell, Sir Charles Wood,—and other peers, prelates, and distinguished commouers. The speeches were, as usual, complimentary; the Exhibition was spoken of highly, as it de- served, for there are many really good pictures on the walls and the proceedings were, through- out, of a gratifying nature. It is painful to state, that Admiral Fitzroy, the well-known meteorologist, committed suicide on Sunday morning, at his residence, Lyndhurst Lodge, Norwood. He locked himself into his dressing-room, and cut his throat. He was of a very kindly disposition, but had lately been suf- fering from lowness of spirits. From all the countries on the continent, expres- sions of most cordial sympathy with Mrs. Lincoln and the American people,tnd of detestation of the crime by which Mr. Lincoln lost his life, have beeu forwarded to Washington.—On Saturday evening, there was a meeting at St. James's Hall, London, at which resolutions expressing the same feelings, were carried. On Monday evening, addresses to the same purport were voted in both Houses of Parliament; and the same evening, the Americans, resident in London, met at St. James's Hall, Mr. Adams in the chair, and adopt- ed resolutions embodying their sentiments on the lamentable event.—In almost every city and town in the kingdom, similar resolutions and addresses have been adopted, either by corporate bodies, or at public meetings. It is long since any event has occurred on which public opinion has been so unanimously expressed iu one direction. On Monday, the West London Industrial Exhi- bition was opened, at the Floral Hall, Covent Garden. The Rt. Hon. Wm. Cowper, Chief Com- missioner of Works, took the principal part in the proceedings, which were of a very interesting na- ture. The company was numerous, and they ap- peared much pleased with the arrangements and with the great variety of objects displayed. We regret to learn, that, on Sunday night, there were serious riots at Belfast between Pro- testants and Roman Catholics. The authorities were unable to restore peace for four hours, several persons were wounded by stones, and several ar- rests were made. The parties arrested were brought before the Magistrates on Monday morn- ing one man was sent to gaol for three months. two women were fined, and the rest were remand- ed. The Chairman of the Bench announced the determination of the authorities to act with the utmost rigour, and large bodies of extra consta- bulary were sent into the town. On Monday night, there was great consternation, but no riot- ing. The Orange party, 3000 in number, made a demonstration outside the town. The number of emigrants from Nolway and Sweden to North America, has, this year, been so great, that the magistrates, in certain district, have thought it necessary publicly to warn the in- habitants against leaving their country for the un- certainties and anxieties of an existence in a fo- reign land. On Fridav, the Russian squadron left Nice, to convey the corpse of the late Czarewitch to Cron- stadt. The Czar and the imperial family set out on their return home on Saturday. They passed through Lyons on Sunday, and were met by the Emperor of the French at the railway station.— On the 2nd, an imperial manifesto was published at St. Petersburg, declaring the Grand Duke Alexander heir to the throne. Prussia has certainly proposed that the estates of Schleswig Holstein shall be convoked; and there is much speculation in Germany as to the result. The chief object of deliberation will be, it is stated, the financial condition of the country; and, in that case, it is thought, the estates, if they are not too democratic will declare for annex- ation to Prussia, as the best mode of getting over their many difficulties. Austria, however, has not yet given her consent to summon the estates and it is rumoured that she has refused to do so, unless the question of states rights, as well as that of the finances, is submitted to their considera- tion. We suspect, however, that the pertinacity of Herr Bismark will prevail. His measures with respect to the Prussian navy are progressing and the arrangements for the transfer of the naval es- tablishment at Dautzic to Kiel are now com- pleted. The condition of King Leopold is still serious. It was stated at Brussels, on Sunday, that Dr. Jenner had been re-called from London and that another physician had been summoned from the former city. His Majesty, was, however, able to attend Divine Service on that day, when his health was much improved but great care still is necessary. On Friday, Prince Murat left Paris for Nice, in order to present the condolences of the Empe- ror iii(I Empress to the Czar and Czarina, on ac- count of the death of the Czarewitch he would arrive too late the imperial family (as we have noticed in a preceding paragraph) having left Nice on Saturday.—On that day, the Emperor left for Algeria. He arrived at Lyons in the afternoon attended the theatre in the evening, and spent the night there. He left Lyons on Sunday, arrived at Marseilles at six o'clock that evening and at 9 a.m. on Monday, sailed for Oran. 0 The Empress has been appointed Regent during his absence and some correspondents at Paris say, that this appointment has produced an unfavourable effeot.-On Monday, a despatch from M. Drouyn de l'Huys, to the minister of the United States, conveying the sympathy of the French Government at the murder of Mr. Lin- coln, was communicated to the Senate and the Legislative Body. The ministers, and the oftl cers of the two Chambers spoke highly in favour of the deceased. On Friday, the 28th inst., the Italian Parlia- ment sat for the last time in Turin.—On that occasion, the following order of the day" was unanimously carried The Chamber, in taking leave of Turin, declares that city to have deserved well of the country, and trusts that the Italian cause, so valiantly sustained by her, may very soon obtain its definitive triumph." Before the parliament separated, the ministers withdrew the bill for suppresing religious institutions and an address of condolence to the United States Con- gress, on the assassination of Mr. Lincoln, was adopted.—On the 28th ult., the seat of the Italian Government was formally transfered to Florence. Telegrams from Rome, dated the 28th nit., states, that the arrangements relative to the va- cant bishoprics, which Signor Veggezzi had gone to that city to carry out, were progressing favour- ably.-On the 2nd inst., the Pope went to the Greek Church, and beatified two more "martyrs" of the 17th century. He also delivered a dis- course on the persecution to which the Church had been exposed, in past and present times. It is suspected, that the outbreak of the stu- dents at Madrid was only the commencement of a more serious event. Letters of the 27th ult., say that a revolution in the capitol was looked for all the Alcaldes had sent in their resignations, and the state of affairs was most alarmillg.-o the 28th, in the Congress, Senor Rios Rosas ex- plained his motion for a parliamentary enquiry into the events of the 10th inst. He said that the ministers could neither dissolve parliament, nor govern with it. Senor Gonralcz Bravo stated, that he considered the motion as a censure upon the Government, and called upon the majority to reject it. It was rejected by 154, to 104 votes.— The Senate has adopted the bill for the abandon- ment of St. Domingo, by 93 against 39 votes— Though thus supported in Congress, the ministers are said to be very unpopular with the people and- a change, it is thought, must soon take place. There is intelligence from New York to the 19th ult. On that day, Mr. Lincoln was buried, at Washington, with great pomp. All the civil, military, and naval officers had been ordered to wear mourning for him for six months and the Governor of New York had ordered the 20th, previously appointed to be a day of thanksgiving for victories, to be dedicated to the services ap- propriated to seasons of national bereavement.- All the foreign ministers at Washington had met, and sent a deputation to convey to Mr. Lincoln's family expressions of their sympathy and the British and French residents at New York had met, and passed resolutions expressive of the the same feeling a feeling which also prevailed universally through the British North American Provinces. Mr. Seward was announced to be better on the 19th ult., and Mr. Frederick Sew- ard was improving. Neither of the assassins had been apprehended, and large rewards were offered for their arrests. It was believed that the assas- sination was the result of a regular conspiracy.— Mr. Johnston had entered upon the duties of the presidency. Mr. Lafayette Forest is the new vice-president. Johnson had received a deputa- tion at Illinois and in addressing them said, they ought not only to be put down, but punished a clue, probably, to his future policy.—The war news is still unfavourable to the South. On the 9th ult., Gen. Canby captured Spanish Fort, Mobile and fortifications at Blakeney, a few miles further up the river, with guns and several hundred prisoners. On the 12th, Mobile was evacuated by the Confederates, and occupied by the Federals. In South Carolina, Johnston had retired to Hillsboro', and Sherman had occupied Rileigh, the state capital. Stoneman, with his cavalry, had captured Salisbury, in Johnston's rear after destroying the railway between Dan- ville and that town. It was quite expected, that Johnston would surr(,nder. -Gen. Grant had been at Washington, and after a conference with the President and his cabinet, had ordered Judge Campbell and Mr. Mayo, the Mayor, to be arrest- ed. They had come to Washington, under a safe conduct from the late President. On the 3rd of March, the Emperor Maximilian issued a decree, dividing the Empire of Mexico into 50 departments, each to be governed by a prefect, residing in a chief town, as in France. Within the space of four months each prefect is required to propose to the Government a plan for the subdivision of his department into munici- pal districts. It is thus hoped that local intelli- gence and energy will be roused, and that the interior of the country will be rendered habita- ble. We learn by letters from Bokhara, that the Emir is preparing an expedition to assist the Khan of Kokan against the Russians. That ruler has been seeking assistance, in vain, from Turkey and England and Russia is gradually pushing on, in that part of Asia, since she conquered Circassia. Kokhan will soon be annexed,—there is no doubt.
