The learned and witty special envoy to Bradford of the Daily Telegraph informed his readers that the Italian voices seemed to him , contrary to expectation , unimpaired by touring in the manufacturing districts . " How does this constant change of air agree with you ? " he said to one of them . " Pretty well , " was the reply ; " though , by the way , we gall it change of smoke . "

Crystal Palace. The Months Of August And...
CRYSTAL PALACE . The months of August and September are those in which the visitors at the Crystal Palace are more than usually numerous . Railway excursions are put forward from all parts of the country . Benefit , clubs and friendly associations pour in their thousands . Schoolchildren have their annual treats , and recently large accessions have been made to the numbers of visitors by the praiseworthy practice t > f large employers of labour giving to their workmen a day ' s healthful recreation at the Crystal Palace . The present year has formed no exception to the usual state of things at this season of the year , and as the railway companies have very generally offered unusual facilities for trips to London , the Crystal Palace has benefitted largely by the accession to its ordinary number of visitors .
The Forester ' s day last week was an enormous success ; the Poultry Show during the present week has drawn many thousands of extra visitors to Sydenham . The energetic arrangements for the present month also give promise that the attendances will continue to be maintained . at a high rate . Besides frequent displays of the great fountains , the first of which is on Tuesday next , the popular Autumn Show of Flowers and Fruit takes place on Wednesday and Thursday , 7 th and 8 th September . This show invariably" attracts a large number of persons ; the price of admission , viz ., half-a-cfown and one shilling , placing it within the reach of the great mass of the people . The exhibitions at this show are very numerous , amounting to nearly 800 . This show is also famous for its magnificent collection of fruits .
On Saturday , 10 th September , a concert will be given at the Crystal Palace , supported by the talents of Madlle . Piccolomini , Madlles . Titiens and Borchardt , Signor Giuglini , and other artists of the Royal Italian Opera , Drury X-ane , who will return from their provincial tour expressly for the occasion . On Wednesday , the 14 th September , the last and most effective of the great juvenile displays of choral singing will be held in the great Handel Orchestra , by six thousand childi'en and other vocalists who have acquired a taste for music by means ' of the Tonic-Sol-Fa system . The preparations for this display have long been actively proceeding under the direction of the Tonic-Sol-Fa Committee , who are wisely of opinion , that , to maintain success , progress is indisponsiiblo .
Season tickets Are issued from the 1 st September , at tho uniform rate of huJf-a-guinoa 5 and as , coupled with this arrangement , it is the intention of tho directors to onclose and impi'ovo tho concert-room , so as to ronder it more generally available for winter concerts , lectures , & c , during tho autumn and winter , there is little douht that a more than average attendance will bo maintained during tho coming six months , a period when the capabilities oi the Crystal Palace only roquiro to be known to bo appreciated .
It cannot bo too often reiterated that it is during this poriotl of thoyenr that the Crystal Palace bocomos most available . Designed by Sir Joseph X * axton specially as a wintor ' gardon , it onablos tho visitors to enjoy exorcise and recreation in defiance of the changes of climate so frequent in England ; and as tho approaches from the railway aro all under coyer , ttfe Palace can at all times bo roachod ¦ without inflonvonlonoo . It Is with tho view of onn-VUng tfoXpubllo to appreciate more fully those peculiar a ^ vuntagoa of the Pnluco , that the half-guinea BOftBon-tiokotu have boon lasued , and It is gratifying to find that they have nlroady boon taken up to ft conBUlorablQ cxtont .

French Policy In The Roman States. A Pau...
FRENCH POLICY IN THE ROMAN STATES . A Pauls letter saj-s : — .-While it is satisfactory to have to record a daily increasing confidence in the ultimate annexation of the Duchies to Piedmont , it is impossible to shut one ' s eyes to the fact that we are rapidly coming to the kernel of the Italian hut —the Roman question . -The Constituiionnel , in an otherwise encouraging article , tells us in plain terms that the Emperor Napoleon cannot include the Holy See in the system of absolute Jion-intervention which is to be applied to the rest of Central Italy . The interests of catholicity still , as heretofore in opposition to those of humanity and civilisation , require that the Pope sli all be propped up on his tottering throne
by something more than a moral interference . True , there is one mode by which the bayonets may be dispensed with ^— papal reform ; but as we know the mot d ' ordre at Rome in reply to all impertinent observations ,. is ? ion 2 > ossumus , we see that bayonets , and nothing but bayonets , will be callied into requisition in the States of the Church . Our vulgar adage tells us , what is sauce for the goose is ditto for the gander . Bayonets at Rome—bayonets , then , in the Legations . Can this thing be ? Can that prescription of highly-tempered steel be ordered for Bologna which , it is admitted , will not be administered to Florence ? The distinction will lead to the horns of a terrible dilemma .
Austria. A Telegram Of This Day (Friday)...
AUSTRIA . A telegram of this day ( Friday ) , from Vienna , says : — -hNo measures announced in the Ministerial programme have yet been carried out . It is asserted that the privileges to be granted to the Jews will not be the same throughout the whole empire , but will be influenced by local circumstances . The principal privilege granted to them will be the right of acquisition of house property in larger towns . It is also reported that Austria intends to discount that portion of the Austrian debt which will be transferred to Lombardy , and to sell the public domains . "
A Vienna letter of the 27 th ulfc ., says : —" The deliberations of the new cabinet continue day after day , because the wish is to bring to a speedy conclusion not only what concerns the reconstitution of the ministerial department ? , but also to fix the bases of the new policy . The mere suppression of the ministry of commerce and the assigning of its different branches to other departments occupies much time . "
Count Cavour. " Diplomatic Despatches Fr...
COUNT CAVOUR . " Diplomatic despatches from Turin , " says the JYord , " speak of the approaching return of Count Cavour to the head of affairs . The Count deemed it his duty to retire in consequence of the situation of affairs which arose out of the peace of Villafranca , but his policy has , nevertheless , been in the ascendant , owing to tho strong national feeling of the Italians , and the fidelity of the Emperor Napoleon to the object with which ho entered xipon tho war . The recall of the ex-Sardinian minister would be a new guarantee in favour of tho policy which he represents .
Turkey. A I>Bsi'atcu From Trieste, Dated...
TURKEY . A i > bsi'ATCU from Trieste , dated yesterday , informs us that the health of the Sultan has been restored .

The Cape Of Good Hope. The Dane Has Arri...
THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE . The Dane has arrived at Southampton this day ( Friday ) . Tlie recall of the Governor , Sir Geor ^ o Grey , is spoken of by the Gape journals with great regret . The foundation-stone of a patent slip and pier has been laid at Simon ' s Bay . The construction of a railway from'Port Elizabeth to Grahamstown is contemplated . . The Cape Parliament terminated its sittings on the 8 th of July . It has declined to annex British Kaffraria to the colony .
