The fall of Kars has had, at any rate, this good result,—that it has at last drawn public attention to the theatre of those operations to which it has succumbed, and taught us the importance attached by a vigilant and skilful enemy, thoroughly ac- quainted both with the ground and the people, to a remote position, with which the British public has scarcely cared to make itself acquainted. No- body can doubt the vast importance attached by the Czar to the preservation of Sebastopol and of the fleet which sleeps beneath the waters of its har- bour. The unceasing exertions and dreadful sacri- fices of Russia attest it only too well. To save the place was the point of honour of the empire—the one object, compared with which all others seemed puny and insignificant. Yet, even in this crisis of his destiny, the Emperor of Russia could despatzli probably his best General and an army whose bravery is only too well attested by its enormous and almost incredible losses on the 29th of Septem- ber, not to defend his own frontier, but make a hostile inroad into the Turkish territory, and to possess himself of a city situated in a mountainous region and exposed to an inclement climate. So eager was Mouravieff for the prize, and so deter- mined to win at all costs, that se soon as lie heard of the fall of Sebastopol, attributing to the allied Generals a degree of foresight and activity which they were very far indeed from possessing, ho deemed it necessary to anticipate, at whatever cost, the expedition they wore sure to make, and so sustained a repulse which cost him a third of his army. Had ho known the easy and comfortable tactics of the allies ho might have saved his even, and taken the city just as well ; but it would be ungracious to blame an enemy for thinking bettor of us than we deserve. What now presses for consideration is whether we are tamely to sit down with this loss ; whether that which the Russian General has gained through our negligence he is to be allowed to keep through our supineness and want of enterprise. If we are ■ot to have peace we must seek out some vulner- able point in which we may strike Russia between the joints of her armour,—some place in which a victory may give us something more than a barren triumph, and draw after it other results than inter- minable catalogues of killed and wounded. While Sebastopol was untaken we considered it so indis- putably the first object of the war that we were well satisfied to sacrifice everything else to its at- tainment. The struggle was so gigantic, our in- terests and our honour were so obviously at stake, that no success, however great, could compensate us for any delay or any failure there. But, Sebas- topol once taken, a campaign in the Crimea has no other object than the capture or destruction of the Russian troops encamped within the penin- sula. The Crimea itself, except as a battle-ground, is utterly worthless, and we are only justified in remaining there on the supposition that there we can inflict more serious wounds on Russia than elsewhere. Whether this be so or not we cannot judge. Unless the coming campaign is to open with a spirit and a brilliancy very different from the close of its predecessor, 200,000 men could not be more entirely thrown away than in occupying the plateau between Kamiesh and Balaklava. Of this, at any rate, we may feel confident—that an expeditionary army can well be spared to-coperate with Omer Pasha in the Transcaucasian provinces, and to redeem the fallen honour of the allies in the estimation of the semi-civilised Courts of Asia. We are making war as mach against Russian pres- tige as Russian power, and cannot afford to allow her, by easy Asiatic successes, to obliterate the effect of European defeats inflicted upon her at so tremendous a cost. We know not what other field is left for our enterprise. To march into the deso- late interior would bo to follow the steps of Charles XII. and Sweden to certain destruction. The capture of Nicolaieff may hardly repay its cost while we hold the narrow passage through which alone the ships built at its dockyards can find their way into the sea ; but in the rich and beau- tiful valley that lies between the opposing ranges of the Caucasus and Ararat, with its glittering streams, its emerald meadows, its waving beech woods, its snow-capped mountains, we have a land peculiarly adapted for the operations of an Euro- pean force. In the north towards the Kouban are Mussulman tribes who, it is supposed, would fly to arms if a Turkish division were sent among them, and the banks of the Phasis and the Cyrus are inhabited by races ivh o would gladly welcome and heartily sup- port a Christian deliverer. To cut off the garrison , of Kars from all communication with Russia, to close the passes of the Caucasus, to scale the ascent which leads to the tableland of Georgia, to drive the Russians before us through Teflis to the very shores of the Caspian Sea, are enterprises the re- sults of which would be enormous, but the difficulty of which would bs by no means so great as those over which we have already triumphed. Resting on our fleet and a friendly population as a secure basis of operations, it would be easy for the allies to wrest from the hands of the Russians the com- mand of the Caspian Sea, and to restore to Persia that of which Russia has deprived her—the right of navigating what must in all fairness be considered her waters. Either we must be prepared to enter on some such enterprise as this, or to leave the Emperor in possession of his present conquests, and in a condition to push them further so soon as he shall be relieved from the vast concentration of his forces which the contest for the possession of Sebas- topol had rendered necessary. The affairs of Asia cannot be left as they are ; there, and there alone, Russia is still able to assume the offensive, and will infallibly attain more, unless we take away from her that which she now has. Lot it not be supposed that in suggesting a cam- paign in the Transcaucasian provinces we are , actuated by any desire meanly and selfishly to employ the power of France to carry out merely English objects ; we repeat what we have so often said—that we have no fear whatever from Russia for our Indian empire. Nothing that she has done in this war raises our opinion of her as an aggressive Power, and in India she would be en- countered by a combination of obstacles far more formidable than any which she has hitherto been called upon to surmount. We have no wish to in- volve ourselves in the maze of Central Asian in- trigues. We have no wish for any increase of territory to the north of the Himalayas. All our objects would be strictly common to us with our ally. We wish to strike Russia in the most vul- nerable point. We wish to oppose to her future aggression the rugged barrier of the Caucasus and the still more rugged valour of its tribes. We wish to prevent her from practising upon Persia those arts and those menaces which so nearly suc- ceeded against Turkey. We are no more disposed to tolerate her presence at Teheran than at Con• stantinople or Hammerfest. We would not allow Russia to turn the left flank of Turkey by the Balkan—we must not permit her to turn the right, which now lies open to her by way of the valleys of the Tigris and the Euphrates. We have stopped her external commerce ; it is time wo applie d a tourniquet to he r main artery,—the vast flood of the Volga. Th ese thi ngs mus t be done, not in the interest of England alone, but in that of the world. A solid peace can only be founded on the conviction of the power of the Allies, and that conviction will then be most surely pro d uc ed when we employ our strength at those points, not where our enesty is most, but where he is least, prepared to receive us. The Pkare de la Manche announces that 30,000 or 40,000 men will probably be encamped this winter i❑ the neighbourhood of Cherbourg for the purpose of being embarked next spring for the Russian Baltic pro- vinces. The establishment of another camp of 20,000 men, near Brest, is &aa talked of.

WOODIN'S ENTERTAINMENT. Mr. Woodin, already so favourably known to the public by his and at the Regent-street Gallery, has st‘rted a fresh concern' in King William-street, Strand. This new entertain. ment he has named Woodin's Olio of It takes a more ambitious range than Mr. Woodin's pre. vious performances. It comprises an entirely new corals entertainment, and a moving panorama of the romantio lake scenery of England. This new speculation of Mr. Woodin's is a decided and one that seems to be highly appreciated by the public.

This day being the 25th anniversary of the Polish in- surrection of 1830, the Polish exiles resident in London attended the funeral service at the Roman Catholic chapel, Sutton-street, Soho-square, for the repose of their countrymen who fell in this and other national struggles, after which they assembled in Sussex Cham- bers, Duke-street, St. James's, where a meeting was held. Colonel Chevalier WIEROINSKI occupied the chair, and in opening the proceedings warned his countrymen to be on their guard against the Polish doctrinaires, who maintain that the present is not the time for the Poles to take any part in the war against Russia. Eighty-six years of the most dreadful national calamities—four par- titions, and the dungeons of the spoliators are filled with Polish martyrs ; and while in all parts of the world the bones of Poles bleached on every battle-field, and the Polish blood flows profusely everywhere, these cold cal- culators tell you now it is not yet time. Oh ! my brethren !—(continued he)—Now, and now only, is the right time to show to Europe and to the world that Po- land is not dead—that she is ready to perform her old task of watching over and shielding the liberties and the independence of the civilised part of Europe. Captain CHAS. SZULCZEWSKI proposed the first reso- lution, which was as follows : That the Polish exiles in this meeting a'sembled de- clare solemnly and conscientiously, on behalf not only of themselves, but also of their countrymen, whether dragged unwillingly to serve in the armies of the Czar, or subject in their homes to the degrading oppression of his govern- ment, that the resolution of the whole Polish nation again to constitute itself into an independent State, openly asserted iu arms this day 25 years ago, so far from having been shaken or diminished by the unparalleled civil and religious persecution which the Polish people have suffered in the meantime, has become, on the other hand, oven yet more deep, unwavering, and immutable. In proof of which solemn declaration they appeal to the indisputable fact that Polish prisoners taken during the present war, to wh ttever class of life they may belong, seize with avi- dity the first opportunity offered them of entering the ranks of the allies, and fighting against their former After observing that the vitality of the national spirit, and the devotion of the Poles for their country, have not suffered any diminution, continued thus : Since the ultimate downfall of Poland in 1831—since the event that made us all exiles, we have never met to commemorate that event under such important circum- stances for us as the present. There have been, since then, it is true, various periods of great commotion in Europe, which have. raised our hopes and made us put forth new energies ; but at those periods the wisest among us were always fully aware that if we were to succeed it would be in spite of governments, armed with an extent of national power which their sympathis- ing subjects did not possess, and that, therefore, our chances of success were so much the less, and were, indeed, dependent upon the overthrow of those governments. Now, however, it is very different. Though not avowedly, and not even designedly, the mightiest powers of Europe are now leagued to- gether to do battle for Poland—for whoever fights against Russia fights for Poland ; and, though timid politicians may shrink from acknowledging it, the restoration of Poland must be one of the consequences of the present war, or the war will prove to have been waged in vain. Now, therefore, it is not only the popular sympathies but the governments of Europe that are enlisted in our cause, and the governments of Europe, backed by the enormous strength bestowed by the full and hearty con- currence of their people, and the restoration of Poland has become one of the essential conditions for the resto- ration of peace in Europe. But, if this be so, fellow- countrymen and fellow-exiles, the part we have to per- form and the duties we have to fulfil are also different, and it behoves us to take a serious view of our position, and to make up our minds to consider no sacrifice too great to secure, when the time comes, the open and willing aid and co-operation of those who are now perhaps only fighting our battle because they cannot help it. While addressing you on a recent melancholy occasion, when we had met to do honour to the memory of the truest and noblest friend that any oppressed nation could ever boast of, Lord Dudley Stuart, I took the liberty of alluding to the unmerited reputation for disunion which has ever clung to us as re nation, and to the diversity of opinions entertained in the emigra- tion as to what ought to be the form of government in Poland, should our beloved country ever be restored to independence. I would now fain dwell further upon the subject, and beg you to reflect that if the hopes which have been so frequently frustrated should at length be realised as a consequence of the present war, our country will, in this ease, have been restored through the aid of a European coalition ; and that, as has been truly observed by our countryman Count Valerian Krasinski, in one of the many works which have made his name illustrious in exile—we cannot, therefore, expect that the form of Government to be introduced among us will be left en- tirely to our own decision. What we have to do now, in expectation of the propitious event is, therefore, to train our minds to acquiesce readily in whatever neces- sities the conjunctures of the times may impose, and to sacrifice even cherished theories and predilections in the cause for which we have made so many other sacrifices. To do this will, I think, be the more easy, if we will but , take an unbiassed survey of the world's, history ant ob- serve, that no nation was ever founded and no state ever developed itself according to political theories. The principles of a nation's growth, the elements of its great- ness, lie hidden in the innermost recesses of its being, as, also, in the nature of the country which it inhabits. To seek out, to recognise, and to nourish these, is the task of the patriot and the statesman—- and we have all been so long absent from our country, so many forces of which we have hardly any know- ledge have been in action there during our quarter of a century of exile, that, should we over be restored to it, we would have much to learn before we could be in a position to judge what would be the best possible form of government for us. That, in the first instance, it would be sufficiently free to allow of its being gradually improved we have a guarantee in the principles that govern the present war, and render it so popular throughout Europe ; and with this assurance we ought to rest contented for the present ; for, to recommence our national life with dissensions on the subject of preconceived theories, whose adaptation to the circum- stances of the country we had had no means of test- ing, would, indeed, be to prove that the early dis cords that have made our intestine broils proverbial in Europe did not spring from our old absurd constitution, hut in reality had their root in the national character. On the other hand, by discarding all subjects which have hitherto proved apples of di,cord amongst us, by work- ing together with one heart and one hand, and bringing all our energies to bear on the first great task before us —the reconquest of our country by faithful service iu the armies that are now combating Russia —we shall,on our side, be giving the best gu a r a ntees for the fut ure, we shall be acqui r i ng th e esteem of those Governments without whose aid we can hope to achieve but little, and we shall be gaining the confidence even of those who have chosen to number the Polish emigration among the rankest revolutionists and firebrands of Europe. In saying this let me not be misunderstood as wishing to cast any blame upon those peoples, who, having in vain exhausted all other means to secure their rights, trampled upon by foreign despots, have atlength had recourse to arms to free themselves from the hated yoke. To number ourselves among such has ever been our greatest glory ; but I do deeply deplore that, owing to the aberrations of a few members of the emi- gration, the name of the Poles should have become, in the minds of so grew a number of persons, identified with the cause of those visionary politicians of all na- tions, who would subvert all existing governments and overthrow all established institutions in order to create a new world out of the chaos ; and it i 3 because I think that irreparable injury is done to our cause by allowing such impressions to gain ground that I have taken the liberty of addressing you on the subject, and that I would implore all of you who think with me to seize every opportunity for proving that not only is the restoration of Poland an event necessary in the conservative in- terests of Europe, but that the Poles also deserve to be numbered am eng the conservative and progressive nations of Europe, inasmuch as they wish nothing more than to be put in possession of their country, and quietly to develope its resources and capabilities according to the laws which nature and history may have pointed out as the most appropriate. It is by acting in accordance with such principles that we shall be most effectually aiding the cause of political liberty throughout Europe, and help- ing to promote the liberation of the other nations, who are sighing under a yoke similar to that which weighs upon Poland ; for nothing has contributed more to rivet the chains of these nations than the wild schemes with which their names have been associated. The eyes of the Western Governments of Europe have at length been opened to the fact that R uss i a is the great revo l u ti on i st of Europe ; and, this truth being once recognised, it will not fail to work out its consequences, which must plead advantageous to all oppressednatemonusn,trayndt,ofinitasilyfo,rlmeaedr to the restoration of our beloved independence.

missioner. The results may be very briefly summed up. Lord CLARENDON declares that the inquiry which has ended in the complete exculpation of Sir J. BROOKE from the charges made against him, has, at the same time, brought to light abundant evidence of the beneficial results of his administration of the affairs of Sarawak, which are exhibited by the establishment of confidence and the increase of trade, and are such as to de- serve the approbation of her MAJESTY'S Govern- It may be assumed that the very unpleasant controversy which has so long been carried on has now terminated, and that all unprejudiced persons may rejoice in the unequivocal and honourable acquittal of a very meritorious public servant, and the clear and distinct acknowledg- ments of the benefits he has conferred on his country, and those in whose affairs he has so energetically and usefully concerned himself.

HER MAJESTY'S THANKS TO THE FRENCH TROOPS. The Times gives the following u a translation of a general oi4er issued by General Canrobert upon the receipt of the Queen's I)eepatch upon the con- duct of the French troops at the battle of hiker- mann : GENEHLL °RIAU. The Commander-in-Chief is happy to have to communi- cate to the troops the expressions, moist honourable for our arms, in which her Majesty the Quern of England appro. elates their conduct at the battle of lokermanr. The Queen has remarked with grateful eatiarattiot the vigour with which the troops of her ally, the Emperor of the French, came to the assistance of the divisions of the English army engaged in so unequal a combat. Her Ma- jesty is profoundly erosible , of the cordial co-operation of the Commander-in-Chief, General Canrobert, and of the valiant conduct of that distinguished officer, Gen. Bosquet. She behold. in the cheers with which the soldiers of the two nations mutually encouraged each other during the action proots of the reciprocal esteem which this campaign and the traits of hr yit has produced have given rise to on both sides. Her Majesty the Queen of England could not praise in • more fisttering manner the attitude of the army at the battle of lukermann. In marching to the aid of our brave allies we fulfilled a duty which they themselves would fulfil towards us with that valour we know they possess, and so many proofs of which wit have witnesse d with our own eyes.

HABIBURG, JAN. 9. • What I wrote you in my last in denial of the newspaper paragraph, cite Tartare, of the formation of a British enlistment office in this city, I am en- abled to-day to confirm folly. As far hack as the year 1816, the Senate of Hamburg published a de- wee forbidding the enlisting of soldiers on Ham- burg territory for any foreign government, under heavy pains and penalties. It is probably in con- sequence of the false reports circulated in the Ger- man papers that the Senate have thought proper to publish in their official gazette. the Hamburg Carre- Cart, a renewal of the prohibition, which settles u f ee l4 tion. The decree rune as follows : The supremo t3saate of the free flanseetic City of Ham- burg finding It nassmary to renew the repeatedly published regulations eigaimet die enlistment of men for foreign mili- tary N o maims so ibliews.

Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &e. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con- ,equences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, vhich have proauced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man- mod, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any Other class of disease known to modern pathologists, Its perusal is . tarticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded tne health, happiness, and privileges:to which every human being is e ',titled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are •rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties nay be mitigated, how the sting or heir bitterness may be removed, trod how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, hat there I .s scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional terangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. 'heAnthor has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive iractice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have nifortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant empirics, who inflict great injury on those wh are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

THE EASTEEN UNION RAILWAY COMPANY. . The arguments in this part heard appeal from the de- cision of the Vice-Chancellor Wood were resumed, and occupied their lordships the whole morning. The facts of the case may be thus shortly stated :—ln .December last, the Vice-Chancellor Wood granted an njunction restraining the Eastern Union Railway Com- pany from making a dividend among the ordinary share- holders until the claims of the plaintiff and the other 6 per cent. preference shareholders should be discharged. In the month of March last, the defendant appealed against that decision, and that appeal motion having been ordered to stand over until the case was ripe fur bearing—the cause and appeal motion now came on for hearing.

Both parties were needle manufactu- rers, carrying on business at Redditch, Worcestershire, and the real defendant, Mrs. Gardner, who, previous to her marriage, was a Miss Hoiyoake, supposing that she had a right to use her maiden name of Holyoake, had sold the needles under that name, and with similar labels to these used by her father. MEETING OF THE BRITISH RESIDENTS IN PARIS. The Court refused to grant the injunction, but gave the plaintiff liberty to bring such action as he might be advised. A numerous meeting of the British residents in ARMY BEFORE SEBASTOPOL COM- MITTEE.—(THis DAY.) The committee reassembled this morning at the usual hour. Sir Thomas Hastings was recalled, and his examination was resumed by Lord Seymour. He in the first instance stated that he was not pre- pared to say whether the requisitions sent to the Ord- nance in June last for a supply of warm clothing, to be sent out to the East, were made verbally or in writing. Communications of that description from the War-office were frequently made verbally. When the Duke of Newcastle was in office, all orders were covered by a general sanction. In reply to Mr. Layard, the witness stated that he did not know whether there was any record of the in- structions in his office, but there certainly was the record of the execution of these orders. By General Peel—When he did receive a written order for the warm clothing, he acted upon it without delay, as he was fully alive to its importance. By the Chairman--When a requisition of that sort was sent to you, do you think it ought to depend upon your memory when you are asked about its execution ? The witness replied that the record of it if sent would not be in his office but in the office of the Secretary at War. The Chairman—l suppose, therefore, if we sent there for it we can have it ? Witness—Undoubtedly. Examination contiaued—When this requisition ar- rived he (witness) was in the country, but he was sent for, as the authorities at home said they were getting into a state of perplexity relative to the warm clothing. There was a difficulty about enforcing a contract—but he informed the Board that it had been entered as a minute of the Board, and that it ought not to be quashed or rescinded. He did not inquire into the cause of this because it might have given rise to an unpleasant feeling. Lurd Seymour—We are not inquiring into questions of unpleasant feeling. We wish to get at the manner in which business was transacted at the Board of Ord- nance. Did you inquire why the contract was to be quashed ? Witness—No. The Chairman—Why did you not Witness—All I thought of was to carry out the con- ;met, and to insure a speedy and proper supply. Lord Seymour—l wish to ascertain whether or not the contractor had received orders to stop the supply ? Witness—l believe he had. Lord Seymour—Did he tell you so ? Witness—No, he did not inform me himself ; but I inferred that he had bad orders to stop the supply from what Mr. Stacey, the storekeeper, told me. He told me that the contract was stopped. Lord Seymour—Did he tell you on what grounds. Witness—He did not. Lord Seymour—By whose order then was the contract stopped ? Witness—l cannot tell. The Chairman—Do you not, then, see what takes place, or have you to depend merely upon hearsay ? Witness- -Generaily I do not see what occurs under the Board. The contract might have been stopped by Mr. Monsell, or by the united order of the Board. General Peel here suggested that there were surely minutes kept of the proceedings of the Board, to which the witness might have had access. The Chairman—Do I understand that you were not allowed to see the minutes ? Witness— Oh, no ! When any of us leave town the minutes of the board are not forwarded to us. The Chairman—But when you came back you might have seen them ? Witness —Certainly, but I did not. I was satisfied with what Mr. Stacey told me. I had no official infor- mation of the fact. _ . Mr. Layard—But minutes are usually kept of all orders, are they not ? Witness—Minutes until lately were kept regularly of all proceedings of the board ; but I will not undertake to say there is a minute relative to the matter now be- fore the committee. It being the duty of the clerk of the Ordnance to communicate with the Secretary for War, and he was in the habit of bringing verbal orders from the War-office, which were at once acted upon—a course which was never used antecedent to that time. These orders were binding on the Ordnance although sent by word of mouth. I was there, and am still of opinion that public business of that kind should always be re corded in writing ; and although the ♦erbal order of the Secretary for War wat binding on the board at the same time, I thought it was ,important and essential that a written order ought always to be given, with a view to its being properly recorded, and in case any question should arise, that the original order should be there to verify the execution of its directions by the board. In reply to General Peel, the witness stated that, under a Secretary at War no order of that sort could have been taken except through his positive directions. lie did not think the abolition of that office was any improvement. By Lord Seymour—lt was probable that the whole proceedings connected with the contract being irregular, DO minute was kept. It resembled correspondence rather than an official act. Some further conversation ensued respecting the de- tails of management at the Ordnance•ofhce, and the quantities of warm clothing ordered last summer, after which, The Chairman said—l have heard it stated that at tLe hospital at Scutari socks of a size for children were issued to the men. Would that be possible, accord- ing to your mode of conducting business ? Witness—lf we had proceeded as we do in ordinary times, that would haw° been impossible ; but in thin case there was great hurry ..nd confusion. The Chairman—Do you think it possible that it occurred? Witness—lt is possible, but Ido not think it is probable. The Chairman—Did you never hear of such an occur- rence ? Witness—l heard that the socks were not of a full size. (Laughter.) Mr. Layard—Did you ever hear also that the shoes issued to the men were not of the full size ? Witness—l think that is very possible. Examination continued—On the 7th August he ap- plied to the Admiralty for tonnage fo r a l arge quantity of warm clothing. They did not reply immediately, as it is not the custom to reply until they had tonnage at their disposal. They had no tonnage at disposal until the 16th October. The Chairman—And you remained quiet all that time Witness—l made no less than nine applications, [LEFT SITTING.] OXFORD, May 2.—By the death of Sir Henry Bishop, .Duc. M as., the Professorship of Music in the University, founded by Dr. Heather, has become vacant. Sir Henry was appointed in 1848, on the death of Dr. Crotch. The appointment is vested in the proctors. The price of wheat in England during the first quar- ter of the present year has been more than 50 per cent. higher than it was in the quarter of 1853 that ended on the 31st March, but Os. 7d. per quarter lower than it was , in the beginning of 1854. Beef is 25 per cent. dearer than it was in 1853, and 7 per cent. dearer than it was in 1854. Mutton has been cheaper than it was in 1863, and so have been potateee. Paris and its neighbourhood was held yesterday at the English Embassy for the purpose of voting an address of congratulation to the Emperor and Empress on the escape of the former from the hand of the assassin Pianori. Lord Denbigh presided. The proceedings opened about three o'clock, when the Chairman rose and spoke as follows : Gentlemen,—My own heart tells me that it would be an insult to any assembly of Eng- lishmen to suppose it possible that any per- suasion could be requisite to elicit an unani- mous expression of the utmost abhorrence of a dastardly attempt to assassinate even the humblest individual in this or any other country. Can it therefore be necesssary for me, at such a meeting as this, and on such an occasion as the present, to endeavour to excite feelings which, judging from my own, I am sure must burn in every breast—- feelings in the first place of deepest gratitude to- wards a beneficent Providence and the Almighty Disposer of all things, for having so mercifully pre- served a life of priceless value—feelings of deepest indignation at the atrocious act which has im- perilled it, and feelings of congratulation towards the whole of civilised Europe, but more espe- cially towards this great country and our own, at the preservation of a life the value of which no estimate can measure and no language adequately express. Need I remind those now enjoying the hospitality of this magnificent city, so embellished by the taste and munificence of the Emperor, and who are dwelling in security in this happy and prosperous country, how lately it has been raised, by the Emperor's energy and wisdom, from a state of almost hopeless anarchy, misery, and danger, to its present high pitch of prosperity and happi- ness? Need I remind Englishmen, who have so lately witnessed the unparalleled enthusiasm evinced by all parties and all classes in England towards their Imperial Majesties, what the Emperor has effected in extinguishing, I for ever—- that hereditary enmity between France and Eng- land, hitherto supposed to be inextinguishable How he has converted a heretofore mere conven- tional alliance between the two countries into a hearty brotherhood—an affectionate union hence- forth to be deemed indissoluble, as being cemented by the best blood of England and France, shed by our brave armies, fighting side by side in the cause of justice, freedom, and civilisation ? Need I enlarge on the fatal blow which would have been struck at that sacred banner had the assassin succeeded in his distardly attempt ? But we may join the Em- peror in his recent noble reply to the French Se- nate, and assure him that we, in unison with his own chivalrous feeling, fear no assassin while en- gaged as lie is, heart and soul, in accomplishing the glorious mission committed to him by Divine Pro- vidence. He has nobly fulfilled the one part in restoring the great country to her present exalted station of world-wide glory and power, as well as of internal peace and prospe- rity, and can any one doubt that he will, through God's help, fulfil the other part, and that so righteous a cause as that of establishing an hon- ourable and permanent peace throughout Europe must and will continually triumph ? After con- gratulating ourselves that this attrocious at- tempt did not happen, as might have been the case, in England, we may likewise con- gratulate our French brethren that it was no Frenchman who raised his cowardly band against so precious a life. Dear, however, as that life is to England and France, and precious as it is to the whole of the civilized world, we must not forget that there is one illustrious person- age to whom, above all others, it is immeasurably dear—even still more precious—and, however, feeble any language of ours may be to convey to the Empress any adequate expression of our deep sympathy and sincere congratulation, we may hope that her Imperial Majesty will graciously accept an assurance of these coming from the heart,as I am sure that ours will do. There is one other topic of con- gratulation as respects ourselves, to which I will briefly refer, and that is, that out of the many millions whose feelings doubtless respond to ours on this occasion, we English residents in Paris are alone graciously permitted to enjoy the highly gra- tifying privilege of expressing to their Imperial Majesties those sentiments of veneration, sym- pathy, and congratulation which will be embodied in the address now about to be moved for your adoption, and which, I trust, will receive your unanimous The Earl of Donoughmore said that, after the very able address which had just been delivered by the noble chairman, it was unnecessary f or hi m to expatiate on the object for which the meeting had been called. He was perfectly convinced that there was not an English heart here, or in any part of Europe, that did no t f ee l t h e d eepest indignation at the base and dastardly attempt that had been made on the Emp eror N apo l eon ' s lif e, an d which, had it succeeded, would have ruined the cause for which the French an d E ng li s h troops are fighting so gloriously side by side. (Loud cheers.) It had indeed been whispered about previously to the departure of the Emperor for England that from the number of discontent e d re f ugees collected in England from every country, the visit was not a safe one, and some cowardly attempt on his life might be apprehended, and disgrace thereby be thrown on England. He thanked Almighty God that such fears hack proved unfounded, and that the Emperor had returned in safety from the Eng- lish soil. It was also a source of great satisfaction that the late base attempt at assassination had not been made b . y a Frenchman--(hear, hear)—a n d the brave allies of the English were no t sta i ned with the reprobation attached to such an act. (Cheers.) He would not dwell longer on the subject, but express what he felt certain was the un an i mous feeling of the meeting, his heartfelt gratitude to Providence for having stretched his shield before the Emperor, and preserved a life of such infinite value, not only to France, but to all Europe. (Cheers.) I now most heartily move that the able address drawn up by Sir Henry Ellis be adopted. (Hear.) Lord Mayo having seconded the motion, the ad- dress was read and unanimously adopted by a show of hands. It was afterwards signed by all the per- sons present. The following are the names of the deputation to wait o n the Emperor with th e a dd ress, on the proposition of Lord Gray, seconded by Sir H. Bulwer :—Earl of Denbigh, chairman ; Earl of Mayo, seconder of address ; Earl of Donoughmore, Mover of Address ; Lord H enry Lennox, M.P.

ADDRESS TO THE EMPEROR OE THE FRENCH. —At a Court of Aldermen, held yesterday, Alderman Sidney proposed a resolution indicative of the profound sorrow with which the Court had heard of the recent attempt to assassinate the Emperor of the French , and tendering to his Majesty and the Empress an expression of grati- tude to Providence for having frustrated the diabolical design, and preserved Fra nce and Europe from anarchy. Mr. Sidney, in making the proposition, expressed his admiration of the heroic and manly bearing Mr of he Alder dis- tinguished monarch in the hour of dang a er. .t '- mn Farebrother, who seconded the proposal mi , said he agreed with Aldermen Sidney in his ad ration of the con duct of the Emperor when the late atrocious attempt ;.made upon his life. The proposal was unanimously agr eed to, and it was determined that the resolution should be presented to the French Ambassador by the Lord Mayor and the mOver and secoAder, as a deputa. tion from the Court of Aldermen.

(Pion the Dailg News.) If the Manchester soirée of last Friday evening was intended to be a demonstration iii favour of what are called ,peace principles, it was a signal failure. The senior member for Manchester himself hung fire. He explicitly declared that the world is now consti- tuted war may be And even with regard to the war in which we are at present engaged, Mr. Milner Gibson confessed that he does not see his way clearly. with regard to the he honourable friend of mine said to me, We know—we have heard your hunourable colleague on the war, and we know what are the views of the honourable member for the West Riding; but where are you ? We should like to know where you are on this question.' Well, sir, there is such a thing as a man not knowing exactly where he is. I know that is the case at sea sometimes, with ships under the command of skilful navigat )rs, in thick and foggy weather. When they have not had an observation for some time they have a very vague idea as to their actual Mr. Milner Gibson, accord- ing to his own account of the matter, is exactly in the same condition as Punch, in the puppet-show of the Deluge, when he halloos out, hazy weather this, Mister And the company addressed by Mr. M. Gibson appear to have been quite conscious that,like him, they were, in so far as the war was concerned, at sea in a fog. They received his confession with a tolerant and approving laugh, and they wound ti:s the proceedings of the evening by voting thanks to the members for the City fur their honest and eloquent advocacy, on all occasions, • of the great principles to represent which they wore returned to the House of Not a . word 'of the war—a question which had not been mooted at the time of the last election. The Manchester soirée is a more effectual rebuke to Messrs. Bright and Cobden, for the course they have of late been pursuing, than even the meeting at Leeds. At Manchester, if anywhere, these gentlemen were likely to be surrounded by a host of entirely sympathetic and approving friends. Yet even in Manchester they have been unable to get up a demonstration in favour of their anti-war policy. The members for Manchester have not met their constituents to render an account of their stewardship and ask the electors to declare whether they were satisfied or not with the manner in which its duties had been discharged They met a number of personal friends at a soirée held in their honour, where any language but that of laudation would have been impertinent and out of place. As an inducement to their friends to rally round them, it was urged that the strong feeling of disapprobation so prevalent in Manchester, with referencce to the language held by Mr. Bright about the war, was an insidious at- tempt of the Tories to divide the Liberal interest. A. fear of breaking up the Liberal party, and a kindly feel- ing toward the members and Mr. Cobden (associated with them in the honours of the evening), were the mo- tives that brought the assemblage of Friday evening together ; and, to allow these motives full play, it was found to be necessary to leave the. war open ques- This, in a demonstration where .Messrs. Bright and Cobden were concerned, was leaving Hamlet out.of his own play. It was as if a soiree bad been got up in Dublin in honour of the late Daniel O'Connell, with a tacit understanding that not a word was to be said about The soirée of Friday evening contrasts remarkably

THE CAVAN ASSASSINATION. Up to the present nothing has transpired, at least publicly, which would afford hope of the speedy arrest of the murderers of poor Miss Hinds. Save to the con- spirators the perpetrators are unknown, and, doubtless, walk abroad and unmolested in the face of day, confident l o b e e a n n t of perfect immunity so long as the terrors of the a ß n 4 system are potent enough to deter even the inno c ent o _ .he from affording the slightest clue in furtherapc t t really guilty. The meeting of magra r t e e sidini : Lace when a Cavan on Tuesday, the High tied of which the following efforts of the authorities to trace home theetonort. series of resolutions was adopted, o are the principal : That we view with feelings of Resolved unanimousl sanguinary outrage m p e , to the in the utmost abhorrence the late _ and coma. of Miss Charlotte Binds. . whether result of a deeply-root e d this outrage was an isolated case, or the conspiracy, we pledge ourselves, individually and collectively, to use our best endeavours to bring the perpetrators to justice; and this meeting recom- mend that an additional pohce-station be formed in the immediate vicinity of the late outrage. That a subscription be entered into, and that the resi- dentmitted in this county in the brutal cowardly murder magistrates of the county be authorised to receive such sums as shall be subscribed. That we cannot separate without expressing the high sense which we entertain of the services rendered to the pea ce mad security of the county by our excellent Assistant B a rrister (Mr. Murphy), in his admirable charge to the qu arter sessions grand jury in Ballyconnell, and that we will cordially co-operate with him in giving the;widost cir- culation to tiat charge:,

THIS EVENING, and every evening , during the week, the GRAND ELEUSINIAN SPECTACLE of MAGIC and MYSTERY, by Professor ANDERSON, the Great Wizard of the North, in 12 acts, with ever-changing variety of incidents, continuous surprises, novel and extraordinary effects. Magic and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos- sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of amusement. It is Rot a monologue, for the audience them• selves perform their parts with the principal actor, some of them on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, for though everything becomes metamorphosed before the eyes of the visitors zo one can be positive that he sees any one thing; but it is a comedy really performed by the corn• pant; a melodrama replete with startling positions and unex- pected denouements ; a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of ...21 6 ...2' 3 .22 0 -.22 0 _2O 6 ...21 6 ...21 9 ...21 0 ...20 6 ...21 0 ...21 6 _22 0 ...20 9 ...21 9 ...20 3 ...21 6 .. 21 6 _2O II ...22 0 _2O 0 -.18 6 ...1A 6 ...20 6 the public every night to appear as auxiliaries ; and an es• travaganza, in which all that seems to be is entirely beyond the bounds of probability. Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged awl fashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum Theatre to overflow, and by means of whose generous aid he has been enabled to announce Magic and Mystery for con- tinuous repetition. He believes that no professor of his art bas at any time •r in any place been honoured with an amount of success so extensive, se decided, and so unusual. He would attribute that success to three causes ; first, that in his present entertainment he has placed before his visitors the results of a life sedulously devoted to the attainment of perfected skill in one peculiar art, and to perfect which he has travelled the globe in every clime ; secondly, that he has spared no trouble nor expense to put this entertainment on the stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment of the first mechanicians and artists of the day ; and thirdly, that, while endeavouring to provide amusement for those who honour him with their presence, he has not forgetten that it is possible to afford information also, and that the oppor- tunity should not be neglected of exposing conjuring wher- ever it has been used for nefarious purposes, or whenever by resortieg to the conjurer's arts, in an illegitimate manner, the designing have succeeded in making dupes of th ►ee, 14 credulous. 'ost office When due in t land. The 937 letters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pr fessor Anderson has received, from the time of opening th theatre up to the present date, bear witness to the great int terest taken on the subject of this singular delusion ; whilst many of them bear melancholy evidence to the dangers which attend a belief in the superstitious nonsense of the Spiri t Judging simply by the correspondence which has resulted, Professor Anderson's exposé of spirit-rapping and his illustration of the so-called table phenomena, have pro: duced a sensation unequalled by any previous attempt to exs pose a mischievous and impudent juggle. It is impossible for Professor Anderson to reply at length to a tithe of the communications which reach him on the subject. He regrets that many of these should come from ladies and gentlemen who, from their position in society and their well-known in'- tellectital attainments, he would least have expected to have been converts to a belief so preposterous in itself, and se . easily susceptible of being controverted and disproved. Evert evening, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions or spirit-rapping are expressed, and every evening, within the Lyceum, how tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated. It is respectfully requested that this public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode of replying at full length to his multitudinous correspondents. He regrets that the names of the great and learned of the land should • have been made to figure in the documents emanating from the spirit-rappers, as for instance the following, ex- tracted from the Morning Advertiser of Thursday, Septem- , ber 20, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri- tual Telegraph. It purports to emanate from an American spirit-rapper, Mr. D. D. Hume Sir David Brewster frankly confesses that he is sorely puzzled' at what ho has witnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be thoroughly nonplussed. Both of these noted men brought the whole force of their keen discernment to bear upon the solution of the phenomena; but the presence of substantial, actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate- rial objects about tho room, proved to be too much of a ques- tion for them to Mr. D. D. Hume, the author of the above, has recently left England, and the following account df who, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: This young man, who is a Scotchman by birth, and now in Italy, is a remarkable medium for all the manifestations without apparatus. Barnum, who is well-known throughout - the Anglo-Saxon world as a splendid humbug, offered him 2.000 dollars per annum if he would perform at his museum in New York. Barnum then took it for granted that mediums could be bought. He was somewhat astonished when his offer was ' refused. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply and honestly renaarkcel, that the money would have been very acceptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 24), an or- phan, and in very had health : but he would have been afraid of losing his power as a medium, and ho would sooner lose his life. The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. Be inquired into the subject; and now Barnum, one of the greatest humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, ie one of the firrnast believers in It is cer- tainly surprising to find such a paragraph as this in the editorial article of an established journal, the editor of whoni might be supposed to be sane. Even if Barnum does believe in spirit-rapping--does spirit-rapping gain or lose by this accession to its adherents? and, with Barnum's endorse ment to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely to be negotiated Professor Anderson would believe not ; but, when he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of England have the temerity to subscribe their names to so gross a swindle, when he finds that the Incumbent of Wortley (the Rev. N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts his belief in it, and writes a book on the subject, he considers it t' be time for him to state that which he knows of the mechanism by which it is effected, and the mischief to which it tends. In the Morning Advertiser of October 3 appears a letter from Sir David Brewster, relative to that which he saw at Cox's Hotel, in company with Lord Brougham. He distinctly states that which the Wizard of the North proclaims every night—that spirit-rapping is nothing more than conjuring applied to bad purposes. In the Morning Advertiser of the following day, however, there is an answer to Sir David's letter from one who was present when he and Lord Brougham had their séance with the spirits, in which the writer says, that the table (a large dinner-table, I believe) moved about in the most extraordinary manner, and, among other things, a large ac- cordion was conveyed by an invisible agency to my hand and then to Lord Brougham's, in which, held by his lordship's right hand, apart from any person, it played an air through- With such a statement, printed for the edification of . the people of the 19th century, with the facts before us that . the most talented men of the day aro permitting themselves to be deluded by these juggling spirit-mongers—that the greatest novelist of the age is now engaged in making it the subject of a new work, and that a spiritual has actually been advertised to be held in St. Martin's-hall, Professor Anderson trusts that his exposures of the spiritual- - fists of America, as given by him nightly at the Lyceum, will be received by the people of England as genuine honest at- tempts to provide an antidote for the bane of the spiritual ugglere. In the course of the last five weeks 100,017 persons have visited the Lyceum Theatre,—a larger number, it is believed, . than has ever before been assembled within its walls in so short a period. Magic and Mystery is repeated every even. ing, the programme being continually changed.

The Mesmeric Couch : or, the Clinical Capabilities of the Atmosphere : in which the Wizard will do by magic that which some suppose to be effected by mesmer- ism, and illustrate the possibility of sleeping unsupported in he air. Act 2. The Aqua-Avial Paradox; exemplifying the power of producing animated nature from fire and water only, and the possibility of eliciting from the simplest elements the most complex forms of ornithological existence. Act 3. Le Livre des Beeueils Choisies : or, Puck's Own Pocket Book, with Puck himself within it. Typifying the evening's entertainment in the production of the very volu- minous from a small volume, in the extraction of magnitude out of minuteness, in developing bulk where no space appears for its existence, is discovering odd things in odd places, and in bringing forth unexpected wonders from the most unlikely place for to be found. Act 4. Magical Locomotion ; or, Transition without Trou- ble. In which will be comprised—the Adventures of a Wed- ding Ring, the Peregrinations of a Bank Not., the Transfor- mation—black into white, and the Discovery of every Article in the position which would seem the most inappropriate. Act 5. L'Ecrin de Verve; or, the Casket of Crcesus. Into which, though made entirely of? glass perfectly transparent, and suspended so as to be visible to the eyes of all present, the Wizard will cause the money of his visitors to transport itself, and rain into the casket, though its lid be closed, locked, and the key in the possession of the audience. Act 6. Clairvoyance Extraordinary ; er, the Transparency of Opacity. Act. 7. A. New Bottle of Bacchus ; or, the Novel Wine and Spirit Store. An improvement upon the inexhaustible inasmuch as the Wizard's bottle will net only be in- exhaustible, but will change its contents, ad infinitum, at the word of command, producing soda-water, butter-milk, Epsom salts, Port, Sherry, brandy, gin, rum, whisky, *oyeau, or any other wine or spirit required ; and finally proving to be felled with pocket handkerchiefs perfectly dry, and occupying the whole space when tightly packed. Act 8. Half an Hour with the Spirits ; or, an Expose of fipirit-rapping. Introducing the spirit-rapping table and tocsin of the invisibles. Act. 9. Grand Mystic Amalgam, in which the property of the Wizard's patrons will undergo some strange metamor- plisses, and, amongst others, their handkerchiefs become transformed into the flags of victory—tke haw sers of E. g l a nd, France, Turkey, and Sardinia. Act. 10. The Enchanted Chair of Comus, in which he who seats himself will be under the magic spell, and appear to the audience, under circumstances least expected, in a posi- tion as peculiar as perplexing. Act. 11. The Mystery of the Charmed Chest ; or, the Nucleus of the Night's Wonders. To comprehend which the audience will have the goodness to observe, in an earlier part of the evening, the chest suspended (like Mahommed's coffin) in mid-air, into which all things will travel, and out of which all will be produced. Act. 12. The If o raological Evaporation ; or, the Slic.tast Route to the Antipodes. Illustrating the easiest mode of ridding ourselves of a troublesome friend, and the advantages of the newly-discovered dia-terrestrial passage from the west- ern to the eastern hemisphere.

STATE OF SEBASTOPOL. In a letter from the camp of the sth inst. we are told . The deserters and prisoners report that the Russian line-of-battle ships anchored in the roadstead opposite Fort St. Nicholas begin to suffer from the fire of the mortar battery on the side of the Quarantine Bay. On the 27th a shell passed through the three decks of the Tchesmi, killing and wounding several men, and then bursting in the hold set fire to her for a short time. Some days before a projectile, fired by a French vessel, berating in a work- shop near the Artillery Bay, caused the explosion of a number of loaded shells, killed several artillerymen, and caused such damage that the Russians have not since dared to collect together such a quantity of combustibles in one place. The shells from the allied vessels occasion much damage to the place and severe losses to the garrison. Their effects are more feared than those of the rockets. The number of naval artillerymen in the place has been reduced from 111,000 to 3,501), and there are now only three artillerymen for each gun. The rations of vegetables and brandy have been diminished one-half on board the Russian vessels, and the captains of them have received orders to economise their consumption of salt pork as much as possible. The commander-in-chief has ordered the inhabitants to quit the town. The opinion that the place must infallibly fall into the power of the allied armies is more and more general among the besieged, and that feeling has greatly increased their discouragement, parti• cularly during the last few days. THE BALTIC. The news from the fleet, which reached Dantzio yesterday, announces that Admirals Dundas Sey- mour, and Penaud were at Nargen. Admiral Baynes, with the rest of the fleet, was before Cronstadt. On the 14th the Raby gun-boat, with the boats of the Arrogant and Magicienne, had a sharp affair at Wiborg. One officer and one man were killed, and ten wounded. According to a correspondence from the northern parts of the Gulf of Bothnia, inserted in the Aflonbladel, nu vessels of the allied fleets had arrived as far nurth as the Umea by the 4th inst. In Wasa there were at that time 200 to 900 Russian troops, and in Ny-Carleby only twenty to thirty Cossacks. Gamla-Carleby, where they louk forward to another visit from our countrymen, has a garrison of 2,000 men in the town and th 4 neighbourhood ; earthworks also have been thrown up round the town. All pilots that formerly had their stations in the outer channel had been compelled to take up their abode in the town. The fortress of Svartholm and town of Lovisa were destroyed on the sth by an English squadron. The latter was burnt by accident, it appears, although the Russian journals speak of the occurrence as an act of wilful and useless barbarism. An authentic account of the affair is transmitted by the following despatch Duke of Wellington, Tolboukin Lighthouse, July 7. The Magicienne returned this morning from Lovisa, and I have received a report from Captain Yelverton, of her Majesty's ship Arrogant, who has been again successful in destroying a well•constructed fort at Svartholm, in the entrance of the Bay of Lovisa; but their lordships will observe with regret that, notwithstanding the humane desire of that officer, the town of Lovisa was unfortu- nately destroyed bt fire, which occurred acnitlentally, on the night following the visit of her Majesty's ships. Cap• tam Vansittan. informs me that the authorities of the town have themselves admitted and explained the accidental origin of the fire. SIR CHARLES NAPIER received a summons to attend at court for the purpose of being installed. He, however, declined the proffered boon. The United Service Gazette adds that the reason assigned by the gallant admiral, if not officially given, is well known to his friends. I have he says censured and degraded, and have been denied the opportunity of clearing my reputation. Yet am I now offered a Jny 21, 1855. THE BALTIC FLEET. (From our Own Correspondent.) OFF CRONsTADT. JULY 3.—This morning we heard, by the arrival of the Lightning, that the Magicienne has destroyed twenty.six vessels of the large description of coasting traders. In all these affairs, the Russian troops Who are distributed along the coast decamp rapidly, not choosing to come within range of grape anci canister from our vessels' broadsides ; so that, when there is no landing indiscreetly attempted, we have it our own way. There is no change in the position otherwise of the squadron to-day. JULY 4.—The Cuckoo arrived this morning from the Gulf of Bothnia, and reports that our block ading squadron there have destroyed thirty thousand tons of shipping of all sorts and sizes. The in- habitants in the islands, and on the mainland in the neighbourhood of Uleaborg, deserted their villages on our ships coming in sight, and but little could be procured in the provision line at any price. This is to be accounted for by the poor wretches who, to save themselves from absolute starvation (which would have been their fate, from the coasting trade being stoppod) sold their little stock to provide for their families, and who were barbarously punished for so doing on the allied forces being withdrawn from the Baltic. This last affair—viz., the destruc- tion of their vessels—must have been a severe blow to the inhabitants; but it is one of the melancholy effects of war, and I fear, if looked on in a right view, is unavoidable. There has been considerable correspondence carried on lately between the com mander.in-chief of the allied forces and the Minister of War to the Emperor of all the Russias, principally regarding the Hango Head affair, which of course the enemy wishes to repudiate. A flag of truce has always been hoisted, and great ceremony been ob- served, on the part of the officers charged with the correspondence, as to keeping at a respectful dis- tance from the guns of, on our part the batteries at Cronstadt, on theirs of our ships. Mucti good- natured badinage has passed between the English and Russian officers, and they appear to have been very friendly in their manner. Two soldiers, who had been made prisoners at 13otriarsund, and ex- changed with English prisoners in the East, were then returned to their country. They did not ap- pear to relish the idea of the change they would experience in their diet fiom beef and pudding to sour bread and oil. JULY 6.—The James Watt and her gun-boat returned to-day from her blockading position on the north side of the Gulf. She has dispersed all the encampments of troops that were collected along the coast, and burnt four telegraph-stations, with no loss on our side. On the south the Royal George has been employed in the same manner. Her gun- boat got on shore : one gun opened fire upon her, and others were being brought down at an immense rate by horse artillery, when she fortunately was got off—having gained her object, which was to destroy a large telegraph. This evening Much excitement was caused by all the gun-boats being ordered to prepare for immediate service. All the launches and pinnaces were armed with the brass guns, rockets, &c. The captain of the Duke of Wellington was ordered to take comtnand. Every gun-boat weighed immediately alter the signal was made, and, taking a string of these boats in tow, steered in to- wards the barrier on the north aide. Everybody was in a state of excitement and expectancy—the Rus- sian gun-boats began to move abmit—signals innu- merable were made by the block-ships outside the harbour—when, however, the gun. boats, &c., were within two miles of the enemy they were painfully reminded that we warriors of the Baltic fleet are not seriously at war, by the recal being made; and back they all came. JULY 7.—To-day, at four o'clock in the afternoon, two Russian gun-boats, I presume encouraged by our hitherto pacific proceedings up here, came out, and, after dodging about for some time, got into a posi- tion which cer',ainly endangered their being cut off by our light vessels. Two of our captains (I won't mention names, as opinions are diverse concerning the result) went on board their gun-boats, and, in spite of the recal being hoisted on board the flag ship (the admiral was away, reconnoitring on the south side), they (our gun.boats) went on at full speed. At last, all hands were certain that shots would be exchanged. The Russians moved but slowly, apparently waiting for us. In a quarter of an hour our vessels were within shot. They turned their heads towards the enemy and tired. There was a universal cheer throughout the fleet, as every- thing looked like business; when, to our astonish- ment, we saw them turn back, and steam at full speed for the fleet. I shall make no comment. All I hear are expressions of disappointment at the re- sult. The Russians steatned quietly into harbour. Had the lieutenants of the gunboats disobeyed THE PRESS. openly the signal (which was enforced by four guns), and then, having taken the responsibility on them- selves, not given some account of the enemy, they must have been cashiered. With captains (unfortunately for our service) it is very different. The admirals have been reconnoitring in every direction lately. We hear that Admiral Baynes (without his squadron) is coming here; so I suppose a grand council will be held as to our future proceedings. The weather is most beautiful, though hot, and the crews of the ships are all well, generally speaking. Admiral Seymour has nearly recovered, though he still suffers a good deal from his eyes having been affected by the explosion of the infernal machine. Apropos of machines, they are now a dead letter, though there must be plenty of them close to us. I regret that 1 cannot give you more interesting news. Indeed, we are all heartily nick of this inactivity; and many a man would give a quarterly to exchange to the Black Sea fleet. Several experiments are being made in the long range, some of which are very suc- cessful ; but it is better not to expose them as yet. THE NEW FRENCH LOAN. THE plan to be adopted by the French Govern- ment for raising the new loan of 30,090,000/. is to be the same as on the last occasion—by a direct appeal to the nation, who will have the option of taking either the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. or the Three per Cents., as follows :—The Four and a- Half per Cent. Rente at 92f. 25c., with interest from the 22nd of March last ; and the Three per Cents. at 65f. 25c., with interest from the 22nd of June. The capital subscribed to be paid as fol- lows :—One-tenth at the time of subscribing, and the remainder in monthly instalments, in eighteen equal parts, of which the first shall be due on the 7th of September next. These conditions will give the subscribers various advar t ages, equivalent to 2f. 79c. on the Four-and a-Half per Cents., and of If. 98c. on the Three per Cents. Those who pay up at once will receive a discount equivalent to this profit. These combined advan- tages reduce the price of the Four and-a-Half per Cents. to 891. 46c., and that of the Three per Cents. to 631. 27c., and are calculated to give to the sub • scriber a profit of 3f. 29c. on the former, and of 21. C3e. on the latter. In case the amount subscribed should exceed the sum required, the subscriptions of 501. of Rente and below are alone to be exempt from reduction, and all those above 50?. to undergo a proportionate reduction. As in the former loans, the minimum of the subscription will be fixed at 101. of Rente. THE PARIS EXHIBITION. TEE fbreign commissioners of the Paris Universal Exhibition, at their sitting on the 10th inst., under the presidency of Baron James de Rothschild, unani- mously passed a resolution that the Exhibition is now complete, that it is in every respect worthy of the hopes which had been conceived of it, and that it presents interesting improvements, the study of which cannot be but useful both to special men and to those who examine in a general manner the development and the progress of the human mind. Special trains are now being organised between London and Paris, to take to the Exhibition the greatest number possible of Englishmen workmen. It is al,o said special trains will go from Berlin, Vienna, and Frankfort, to Paris. The Exhibition is giving a great impetus to trade, not only in the French capital but elsewhere; in tact, many of the large houses of France are unable to complete the extensive orders which have originated from the exposition of their goods in the Palms de l'lndustrie. IN addition to the honorary distinctions bestowed on some of the colonels of the regiments in the Crimea, Lord Hardinge has conferred, in several instances, the more substantial token of a good- service pension. Colonels Cameron of the 42nd, Shirley of the SBth, Cobbe of the 4th, O'G. Hely of the 47th, H. Daubeny of the 55th, Hon. A. Spencer of the 44th, and Lord G.

The communications from India will be accelerat d from five to six days when this and the general system of telegraphs now constructing in European Turkey shall have been completed. Proposals are on foot for extending the project to India by carrying the communication via Suez and Aden to Kurrachee, at the month of the Indus, where it would connect with the lines already in operation, et in course of construction, by the East India Company throughout the various Presidencies. The entire line to India may, it is estimated, be corn pleted in two years. THE probability that Lord Melville, at present Commander of the Forces in Scotland, will go out to to the Crimea to take the command of a division is stated by our contemporary the Scotsman.

MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.) The show of English wheat in to-day's market was limited, yet most of Monday's unsold samples were cleared off at that day's currency. There was only a trifling inquiry for foreign wheat, the supply of which was moderate, yet holders generally were firm, and the quotations were well supported. The barley trade was dull, yet we have no change to note in prices. Malt moved off heavily, on former terms. Oats were somewhat firmer than on Monday, and prices were supported. In the value of beans, peas, and flour no change took place. ARRIVAL! THIS WREN. Wheat. Barley. Malt. t Oats. i Flour. 220 1 70 i 540 i 2,810 133 1 120 English .. Irish .• • • Foreign .. BOROUGH HOP.

DEATH OF COLONEL- I 3 11110B1). ____ , - It is our painful duty to announce the decease of the well-known Colonel Sibthorp, member for Lincoln. The name of the gallant Colonel has long been a household word as the embodiment of honest but unreasoning Tory prejudice ; down to the very last he showed himself a politician of the extinct school of Lord Eldon and the late Duke of Newcastle, whom he thoroughly revered, and consequently, in these days of divided parties and allegiance, he found himself as frequently opposed to the great Conservative party as the late Frederick Lucas to his Liberal allies. The deceased gentleman was de- scended from an ancient family settled upwards of a century and a half at Canwick.hall, near Lincoln, many of whose membere from time to time have repre- sented that city in Parliament. His father, the late Mr. Humphry Waldo Sibthorp, sat for several years at the commencement of the present century. His son, Charles Dalaet Waldo Sibthorp, was first elected in the high Tory interest in 1826, and with the exception of the brief Parliament of 1833.4, chosen under the ex- citement consequent upon the passing of the Reform Bill, he continued to represent Lincoln to the day of his death. The Colonel's iufiuence was great among the registered electors, upwards of 1,300 in number, consisting of free- men resident and non-resident ; but it did not extend so far as to be able often to secure the second seat for a Tory friend, the predilections of the constituency being rather personal towards himself than based on any political grounds. Thus, although Col. Sibthorp could generally reckon on the support of some 600 voters, and in conse- quence was usually returned at the head of the poll, in 1835 and 1837 he was unable to prevent the then Radical Sir Edward Lytton Bulwer from being chosen as his col- league, while in 1847 Mr. Charles Seely and i n 1848 M r. Thomas notihouse were elected against Tory candidates, and Mr. G. F. Hereage aecnre d the second seat at the general election in 1852. Once, and once only, did the gallant Wooers good fortune fail him, and that was, when a majority of 83 dis- e have said, in 1833, i p as laC v ed him to make room for Sir E. Bulwer. The gal- lant Colonel was born, we believe, in 1782, and in 1813 married Maria, daughter of the la te Mr. Ponsonby Tot- tenham, many years M.P. for the borough of Fethard, 'n the Irish House of Commons, and by whom h e l eaves issue several children. His brother, the Rev. H. Waldo Sibthorp, late Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, be- came a Roman Catholic some few year, since, but soon afterwards returned to the English Church. Col. Sib- thorp was for many years a magistrate and deputy-lieu- tenant for the county of Lincoln, and i n 1852 was ga netted to the Colonelcy of the South Lincolnshire Militia. H e s trenuously and consistently opp ose d i n a ll t h e i r stages Catholic Emancipation, the Reform Bill, and the Aboli-ion of the Jewish Disabilities, an d was one of the minority of 53 who censured free trade when Lord Derby was in office in November, 1852. [ADVL fISEIIENTj —Holloway's Ointment and Pills peculiar ...temedies for Wounds or Tumours.—Mr.Clark, druggist, of Bowling, states, in a letter to Professor Holloway, that a young man residing at Laister Dyke, with whom he is personally acquainted, suffered severely for a long time with a large turaour on the side of his neck, which seemed to be incurable, as he tried various remedies without any good effect ; but, by the use of Holloway's Ointment and Pills, a sound and perfect cure was soon effected.

BOM BARDMENT OF SEBASTOPOL. brightness by the breeze, and the charred ribs were all that remained visible to th'e teleeCope . from the Picket. House bill. Long before this consummation, however, two ether fires broke nut within the town itself—the first, and smaller of the two, amongst some houses near the cemetery, and the larger in the . part of the town lying in the rear of the Redan. The locale of the former had been severely shelled by the Greenbill battery dur- iag the afternoon and evening, and to this it is said the fire in that quat ter is to be attributed. Atter sunset a French battery on the left commenced throwing rockets over the Redan into the town ; and to this, I be- lieve, the second burning in that direction is to be traced. This last raged with peculiar fury over a very considerable space, and when I turned away from looking at it long after midnight, the wind was extending the flames to several other buildings adjacent to that in which it first broke out. To aid the breeze, our own Quarry battery threw 3large number of shells into the spot ; whilst the French at the same time continued to contribute rockets for a similar purpese. A shell from one of our own mortar batteries, however, accomplished a still more valuable result, by blositi'ng up a Russian magazine in the sin - all six-gun work on the proper right of the Malakhoff. This oc- curred between 9 and 10 p.m., and from the terrific force of the explosion the quantity of powder ignited must have been great. At a distance of more than a mile and a half from the spot the earth shook again, whilst the anise resembled a thunder peal. The full extent of the t.'arnage cannot be known till deserters reveal it ; but that it quite balances the loss sustained by the French, through the late accident in the Manaelon, there can be little room to doubt. Throughout last night the fire continued to be delivered with unabated energy—the enemy, as before, giving scarcely a shot or shell in re- turn. This silence on their part, however, is far from proving that their batteries are therefore effectually shut up—the delusion into which we fell and suffered from so calamitously on the 18th of June. We have reason rather to suppose that their guns have been withdrawn into shelter, ready, if necessary, as before, to vomit forth grape and canister when we least expect either. But that they have suffered most heavily during the past three days, in men and materiel, is certain, whilst our own loss has been much lees than during any previous bombardment. During the whole of Thursday after- noon an almost unbroken string of stretcher-bearers, carrying away the dead and wounded, could be seen from our advanced trenches winding out of the Re- dan ; and several times as they crossed a point within the town where four streets meet, and which our guns in the Quarry Battery command, two of these last gave them discharges which added considerably to the casualties of the day. The humanity of firing on men so employed may be questioned ; but it should be remembered that in war the first principle of action should be that which will inflict the greatest loss on the enemy at the smallest cost to ourselves ; and to carry cut this refined considerations of humanity must often or always be set aside. Thus the last three days have been full of action and incident. Even while I write every one is on the qui vice of expectation as to the next move on the part of the generals. Camp rumour declares that the assault, which in the usual course of things should follow all this bombarding, will be made to-day ; but beyond this gene- ral impression I can as yet state nothing. To bring down my account of the firing and its consequences to the latest hour I have delayed writing till the last mo- ment in time for post, but even before I close it is not improbable that something decisive may occur. In the meantime I may add to this rapid sketch of our operations since the outgoing of the last mail a few further particulars of some of the occurrences shortly referred to in my letter of the 4th. When I then mentioned the affair in which the 97th Regiment had one officer killed and two wounded in the trenches a night or two before, and added that the matter had since been made the subject of an official investigation, I was not aware of the extent and direction of the blame at- taching to those concerned. Since then I have learned the facts more accurately, and they are briefly these :—On the night in question, when the party of the enemy who surprised and drove in our sentries before the advanced approach leading from the fifth parallel, dashed into the sap, the officers of the covering party rushed forward to meet them ; but the men first hesitated, and then turned; only some 8 or 10 of them remaining with their officers. The immediate result was the death of one of the latter, and severe wounds to two of the remainder. These run- aways were mostly fresh drafts belonging to the 97th and (I believe) the 17th Regiments. Fortunately, Major Turner, of the 7th, who was field officer of the attack for the night, succeeded in mustering a strong party from other regiments close at hand, and with these promptly attacked and drove out the Russians. On the following morning Major Turner reported the conduct of the runaways, and having made good his charge before the committee of officers appointed to investigate it, a most severe and well-deserved rebuke was administered to the peccant regiments in a general order of last even- ing. On the night after this disgraceful behaviour, another excellent officer, Captain Ross, of the 3d Buffs, was shot down in repelling another sallying party from the Redan, who carried him off as they retreated. It is since reported that he has died within the town. Forty-eight hours later still, on Monday night, Cap- tain Pechell, of the 77th, was killed on the same ground, in a most injudiciously ordered attempt (with only eight men) on a Russian rifle-pit some thirty yards in advance of the further extremity of the sap. They had scarcely emerged from the shel- ter of the parapet before a volley knocked over five men and the captain, whose body was dragged back into the trench by one of the three survivors. Again, on Wednesday night, Capt. Anderson, of the 31st, who leas for several months been doing duty with the Engi- neers, was shot dead by a rifle bullet inside the same work ; and on Thursday night, Capt. Buckley, of the Grenadier Guards, met with a similar fate almost on the same spot. Thus within the short period of a week, this trumpery approach has cost us the lives of five most valuable officers and many men. These have constituted the main weight of our fatal casualties since this day week, but in all sad earnest the list is heavy enough. I have more than once had occasion to refer to the dis- graceful behaviour of very many of the young soldiers who are being continually sent out hither from the home depots, and this conduct of the 97th and 17th furnishes another painful illustration of the truth of my remarks. With such multiplied examples of the great inferiority of these raw levies before their eyes, it may be worth while for the home authorities to con- sider whether or not some plan be practicable by which none but old troops should be sent out hither—at least till all such now on home service have been drafted to this army. As it is, I have heard more than one com- manding officer declare that he would prefer short num- bers of the latter any day to a full complement made up for the most part— as is the case with many regiments now in the front—of these green youths, who are sol- diers only in appearance and name. 9 a.m.—As was to be expected, the assault is to be made in the course of this forenoon. Since early dawn this morning a terrific fire along the whole line, left and right, has been kept up on the enemy's works from every gun and mortar that could be brought to bear on any part of them. In addition to the Russian batteries on the pro. per right of the town, the Redan and its mischievous six-gun neighbour have replied vigorously, as have also a couple of batteries from the north side. Only one gun has played from the Malakhoff, and for its rare shots filly fifty for one have been returned. All through the night the allies kept up a murderous cannonade, and at this moment while I write the combined discharges re- semble one long unbroken peal of thunder. This is to be continued till the signal for the assault is given, when the enemy will have barely time to greet the advancing columns with one discharge of grape. This time the ar- LAST HOURS OF THE SIEGE. (Fr(m. the Correspondent of the Daily News.) C , .t.,111P BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, SKET. 8. After 'Long weeks of comparative idleness the allied batteries have again opened upon the besieged town, and for the gi 'eater part of three days havekept up an almost continuo' as bombardment along nearly the whole of the attacking: line. This time, at ail event; the attention of the gene rals commanding was kept sufficiently secret ; for till tl le thundering cannonade began at dawn on Wednesd lay morning from the batteries on the French left, I ha we been unable to hear of any one, out of the narrow c circle of cenfidents at head-quarters, who was at all a% c are of its approach. About four o'clock on the morn ing of the sth, however, our allies opened the ball from, the guns of their left attack, and maintained a most 'vigorous fire on the enemy's works in that direction till about an hour and a half after noon, - when our own batteries and those on the French r ight opened on the Redan, the Malakhoff, and its adjac ,ant supports in Careening Bay. From that hour unt it shortly before 5 o'clock, a feu d'enfer was kept up along the whole line, to which only the Russian batteries opposed to the French left replied with any- thing lik e sustained vigour. The gunners in the Redan and Roo aid Tower contented themselves with throwing occasion II shells into our advanced works and the Mame- lon, and is few hollow shot which came bounding up to the close neighbourhood of the tents along the front. About a quarter' before 5 o'clock the fire on both sides slackened 1, and an hour later it . almost ceased, when a calm—in ,striking contrast to the stormy thunder which had filled the air and clouded the sky during the day—- succeedeo L, and remained almost undisturbed till the light of dawn ;',gain came to guide the aim of the -combatants. Some ts co hours later, however, about 8 o'clock, a. lent the occurr edscene. toA givelarge rg e t wo decker, picturesqueness ecker, lyingand i n n e t w eres ii moored cff the dockyard shears, suddenly burst into limn, e ; ; and in considerably less than half-an-hour her whol , ) hull and rigging were one mass of waving fire. None but a most graphic pen could describe the grandeur of the cot tflagration, as it brightened and extended in relief aga b ist the pitchy darkness of the night, throwing up clouds of smoke, which hung in lurid masses over and aron: a d the burning ship, till the whole harbour, from Fort Pau I to the north shore, was covered with the fleecy vol runes, which there was not a breath of wind to stir. Th a red glare of the flames threw its reflection over all t b e adjacent buildings and shipping, creating a picture of ' lights and shadows such as only the pencil of Rembi sindt himself could have worthily reproduced ; whilst al ). we the vapoury canopy that overhung the vessel, tl to sky was lighted up with a brilliance which rendered the outline of the various siege works before the town. almost as visible as at noonday. The only sky-scene. I ever saw which surpassed, or even equalled it, was an autumn -sunset in Mesopotamia, when the long even line of the desert horizon was crowned p 'ith a glory of which no combination of artifi- cial colons s could ever afford an adequate resemblance. About twx hours after the first outbreak of the fire there were two trifling explosions, as if caused by the ignition of spirits to r the firing of a couple of powder casks ; but beyond tht se, and the discharge of a single cannon, there was no rep ort. Shortly before midnight the decks fell in, after ati hich the side timbers continued to burn for some coup' e of hours, when the wreck settled down, and at daylighit ; no trace of her remained visible above the water. With tll e grey light of early morning on Thursday the bombardu ent recommenced, and continued throughout the day, Iv ith some, periods of intermittent slackness. As on the ; previous day its strength was confined to the French an d our own left--the batteries on the right doing little more than to keep up a dropping fire on the Malakhoff: and Little Redan, the former of which did not answer wi th a single gun. Soon after sunset, however, nearly ewe 75 , mortar along the whole line of attack was brought i a to play, and till nearly 9 the thunder of their discharge s rolled through the air in almost unbroken peals ; the sky was literally alive with shells, vomited forth froi n their fiery beds at every angle from fifteen de- grees up to seventy-five, whilst showers of the still grander a n d more terrific rockets darted across the dark- ness like wenging comets. As illustrating the briskness of the fire about this time I may mention that within four minus tes I counted as many as thirty-one shells fall- ing inside the Malakhoff alone, whilst an almost equally warm prrbc ace was being kept up upon its formidable neighbour the Redan. As throughout the previous day the Mala k Koff scarcely fired a shot in reply, almost its only disci u erges being a few cohorns thrown over the pa- rapet into ;the French sap, whose occupants generally gave back two fc , r one. The Mamelon to a great extent also re- served its fire, leaving its vis-a-vis to be dealt with by our 21-gun ar ic - 1 mortar batteries on its left. About half-past nine o'clo k another fire broke out behind the Round Tower, 'b.icb, though inferior in extent and brilliance to that of -the previous night, threw up volumes of smoke and flame, that' cast a flood of lurid light over a great part of t'tie harbour, the Arsenal, the Redan, and our own and the French advanced trenches. After burning for about a n hour, however, it rapidly died out, having been in ail probability one of the buildings on the slope of the hill, leading down from the rear of the Malakhoff to the barb our. During the hour for which this had lasted one of the three-deckers, which had been drawn up dur- ing the p revious night, with their broadsides to the Round T a wer, threw several shells into the trenches near the Mam E lon, as well as into our own advanced mortar batteries -on its flank, but as the French replied with some die c harges of rockets, this fire from the shipping was not I.‘ mg continued. The glare of a second fire within the town was visible in the rear of the Redan ; but this appeared to have been soon got under, and did not last for ) nom than half-an-hour. As on Wednesday, so again during this day's practice, the enemy fired seve- ral shells at the camp, two of which, that I have heard of, took effect. The first fell into a canteen-hut in the Third Diovision, and demolished the whole concern, at the same time wounding the luckless Maltese to whom the store belonged ; whilst the second exploded within , and killed the only man a s teat n hap oopf paned the F t o o u r b t e h D insidei vi s i o a t n the time, besides wound- ing three. others in the neighbourhood, During Thursday night the firing again slackened, but was resumed on Friday at daylight, and kept up vigorously throughout the day—its main force being, as c , n the two preceding days, from the left. On looking at the Malakhoff about noon I was able, with the aid of a good glass, to perceive the full extent of the external injury which it bad sustained from Wednes- day's and Thursday's fire, and of the entire number of its embrasures only two remained open. The rest had been literally bunged up, and their gabions shattered and knocked about in all directions inti and outside the ditch. The abattis, which bad proved so formidable an obstacle to our Allies on the 18th of June, was also swept away in various places, and open- ings, varying from one to ten yards, were visible through- out the greater part of its length from the six-gun battery up to the parapet of the French sap. Similarly, though to a much less degree, the embrasures of the Redan had been damaged, and its fascines and gabions blown out of place ; whilst the small flanking party under the wing of the Malakhoff appeared but little injured. Passing on to the town itself, on the left, a vast number of houses which had before escaped uninjured were seen reduced to ruins, roofs being knocked in, side walls shattered, or gables blown clean away. From the roofs of several of the public buildings, however, the sheet lead appears to have been purposely stripped ; and I also perceived a scaffolding at present round the dome of the small tower that rises out of the Admiralty buildings, leading to the impression that it is undergoing the same denuding process. Altogether, a much greater proportion of the fire appears to have been this time directed against the town itself than on any previous occasion, and the da- mage inflicted seems to be commensurately great. Why this had not been done long ago has been a standing matter for remark and wonder since the earliest months of the siege. One per cent. of the shot and shellthrown resultlessly into the Redan and Malakhoff would have laid the town in ruins, and not have left the garrison as much shelter as would have given cover to a rat. About 5 p.m. yesterday another ship was discovered to be on fire near the middle of the harbour, and almost hidden from our view by the crest of the Malakhoff bill. From the masts, which were at first all that could be seen, we judged her to be a frigate ; soon after the first outbreak of the flames she appeared to be to wed out far- ther from the south shore, for her deck and one tier of portholes became visible above the brow of the slope, and the impression as to her size was then confirmed. Though the evening was windy, and an impetus therefore given to the flames, she continued to burn steadily till nearly an hour before midnight, when the blaze gradually subsided to a smoulder, fanned into rangement is, that our attack on the Redan shall not be made till the Malakhoff is actually occupied by the French —then, and not till then, our stormers shall dash on to the Redan, the French supporting them by a simultaneous rush upon the small flanking battery which worked us so much mischief on the 18th June. Our assaulting force is to be composed of the whole of the Second Division, and the second brigade of the Light Division, with the first brigade as a reserve. As a punishment for its recent conduct in the trenches the 97th has been told off to lead. General Markham, of the Second Division, commands the whole. Such, briefly, is to be the order of this final attack, and the strength of our own force to be employed in it. With the lesson of the fatal 18th fresh in all minds we have little of the un- duly sanguine confidence of success which then ani- mated everybody ; but with our advances pushed so much nearer the points to be attacked, and with ar- rangements free from the complications which bore such disastrous fruit thf.,), the general disappointment will still be great if before sunset to-day the Tricolour and Union Jack do not float in triumph over the Malakhoff and Redan. This accomplished, the south side of Sebas- topol is our own.

TEETH. .ALNEW AND IMPROVED METHOD Op FIXING ARTIFICIAL MINERAL TEETH. MESSRS. GABRIEL, THE OLD ESTABLISHED DENTISTS, (Of 102, Duke•street, Liverpool,) have the honour to inform their Patients and the Public that their arrangements are now complete for the Exhibition of all Modern Improvements in the Construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, for which the Prize Medal has been obtained, and as now Exhibited at the PALAIS D'INDUSTRE, Specimens of which may now be seen at No. 102, Duke-street. Messrs. G. may be consulted Daily, (Free of Charg e,) at their Residence, 102, Duke-street, an d every requisite 'information respecting the Teeth obtained. Also, for DECAYED TEETH, the Patent WHITE ANODYNE CEMENT, as recommended by the most eminent Physicians of the day, which instantly allays the pain and renders the Decayed Tooth sound and useful. Charge, 2s. 6d. and ss. ARTIFICIAL TEETH .. A COMPLETE SET .....from 3s. 6d. .... „ 24 4s. Od. NOTICE.—In the System adopted by Messrs. GABRIEL, of Fixing Teeth by Atmospheric Pressure, there is no pain what- ever, as it is not requisite to extract any Teeth or Stumps. SCALING, EXTRACTING, LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, and MISFITS RE-MODELLED, by MESSRS. GABRIEL, SURGICAL AND MECHANICAL DENTISTS, 102, DUKE-STREET, LIVERPOOL, AND 79, FENCHURCH-STREET, CITY, LONDON. Hours of Attendance from Ten to Seven. NOTICE THE NUMBER 102. PAINLESS TOOTH EXTRACTION, (WITHOUT CHLOROFORM.) BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT. Mr. ESKELL is the only DENTIST privileged to use the Patent in LIVERPOOL. A new and elegant IMPROVEMENT connected with DENTAL SURGERY has been invented by MR. ESKELL, SURGEON DENTIST, No. 75, RODNEY-STREET, (CORNER OF UPPER DUKE-STREET), LIVERPOOL. It is the construction of an entirely new description of ARTIFI- CIAL TEETH, beautifully Enamelled and of the most exquisite Workmanship, from Part of a Tooth to a Complete Set, and is composed of the finest Materials, which are afterwards Enamelled to resemble the Natural Teeth, in every Shade and Colour. They are incorrodible, (will never change colour or decay,) and when adapted to the mouth are not discernible from the Natural Teeth. They are constructed upon Metals of unexceptionable purity, and for comfort in wearing and general appearance cannot be excelled. Mr. ESKELL supplies ARTIFICIAL TEETH upon his new sys- tem of SELF-ADHESION, without extracting any Teeth or Stumps. Mr. ESKELL has Specimens in every variety, and will be happy to show them to those interested in the subject, when their pre-eminence will be at once apparent, and this statement of their superiority over all others will be found to be entirety and scrupulously correct ; so much so that Mr. EsicELL will g ive THREE MONTHS' TRIAL WITHOUT PAYMENT , a sufficient guarantee of their COMFORT, EASE, BEAUTY, and DURABILITY, at charges strictly moderate, and within the reach of the most economical. Incorrodible ARTIFICIAL TEETH, as above, from TEN SHILLINGS EACH TOOTH. FILLING DECAYED TEETH With ESKELL'S celebrated WHITE TERRA PASTE, which never changes colour, and is free from those injurious proper- ties found in ordinary Stoppings. It is applied in a soft state, like paste, to the cavity of the Tooth, without giving the slightest pain, and in a few minutes it becomes as hard as the Enamel of the Tooth itself. A NEW MODE OF EXTRACTING TEETH, BY A PATENT FULCRUM, By which means the Gums cannot be lacerated, the danger of breaking the Tooth prevented, and hmmorrhage considerably lessened; and the Tooth being extracted perpendicularly and almost PAINLESS, renders Chloroform unnecessary. We can confidently direct attention to it as a boon to the profession and the It allows of the extraction of teeth in the most scientific and easy Times. There is generally so much difficulty experienced in the intro- duction of any novelty, however valuable, especially in Medicine or Surgery, and that difficulty is so much enhanced if the inven- tion militates against preconceived ideas, and old-established and cherished modes of practice, that it is thought desirable to pub- lish some of the Testimonials received in favour of the Patent Apparatus from some of the many persons who have experienced its benefits. The following are some of the most eminent medical men to whom the Chair and Fulcrum have been shown, which has met with their entire approbation; some of them have also been patients, and to them the reader can be more particularly re- ferred:— Sir B.

WHATEVER of gratitude is due to Rome from the Anglican Church on account of the mission of ST. AUGUSTINE, certain it is that the debt has been pretty well_cancelled, and that, upon the whole, more of evil than of good has resulted to us from our former con- nexion with, and subjection to, him who claims to be the successor to ST. PETER. At this moment we are suffering under two evils : the' want of additional Churches, and the scanty means afforded to their In- cumbents by many existing ones. But how, it will be askdd, is Rome answerable for this P We say not that the blame is wholly attributable to her, but doubt- less it is so in a very great degree ; while, if she had exerted the mighty power, which she formerly pos- sessed, less for selfish ends, and more for the good of the Church . at large, there is little doubt but that she might have hindered altogether the proceedings to which we are about to allude. Our readers are, of course, aware that of benefices some are called Recto—- ries, and others Vicarages. Whence and what is the difference between the two P Simply this : all were originally Rectories, but, from time to time, some of them were appropriated to Monasteries, whose mem- bers thenceforward enjoyed the great tithes, and appointed a Priest to discharge the duties, who had for his maintenance the small tithes and certain other dues. This was bad enough, being a diversion of pro- perty from those purposes to which its original donors had - solemnly dedicated it. And, as this system of appropriation flourished under the sanction of the Popes, so doubtless, if they had pleased, they might at least have greatly restrained, if not altogether put a stop - to it. For the evil which followed, as a conse- (pence of this system, we therefore hold them to be indirectly responsible. The monasteries had been, to a large extent, endowed by the robbery of the parish churches ; and, at length, their turn came to fall under the hand of the spoiler. They were suppressed by the EIGHTH HENRY, and their possessions lavished upon his creatures ; and hence it comes to pass at this day, that not only Abbey-lands, but the tithes belonging to particular parishes, are in the possession of laymen ; while the Incumbents of those parishes are, in many instances, doing the work for incomes which are utterly inadequate to their maintenance. Windy de- magogues not unfrequently take the wealth of the Church for their text ; while sums of fabulous amount are stated as the incomes of her Bishops and Clergy. It will, however, surprise a good many people to learn that no less than four thousand parishes in England and Wales have their tithes either wholly or partially alienated from them, and that the gross amount—of which they have been thus sacrilegiously robbed—- exceeds a million and a half annually. Could the Church recover this sum, there would be little difficulty in supplying all her wants, many and urgent though they be. We have been led to these remarks by a perusal of the Report, for 1855, of a society little known, but de- serving extensive support. The title which it assumes is, The Tithe Redemption Trust for the Church in England and and its objects are as follows : 1. To give to owners of alienated Tithes an oppor- tunity of restoring them to the spiritual purposes for which they were originally ordained, and to assist them in so doing. 2. To apply any Tithes thus restored towards relieving the spiritual destitution of the Parish or Chapelry whence they arise, by adding to the endow- ment of such Parish Church or Chapel, or by the endow- ment of new districts therein. 3. To apply to Parlia- ment to facilitate the means of accomplishing these And, that its funds are not likely to be ap- plied to party purposes, will, we think, be evident, by a glance at the names of the trustees. The Trust has only been in existence five years, and is yet but little known : its income is consequently small, and its means of accomplishing its two first objects very limited. But we regard its third pro- fessed object as of at least equal importance; and had it effected nothing more than the removal of one of the restrictions imposed by the law of mortmain, it would have clone much, and deserved well of the Church. HOwever necessary that law may have been at its first passing, there is no doubt that it has acted prejudi- cially to the best interests of the Church in later times, by preventing such provision for the spiritual wants ot. the people as would otherwise have been made. Tithes, once belonging to the Church, but since alien- ated and held by laymen, could not be given back again by will. This restriction no longer exists; for, through the efforts of the Chairman of the Trust, a clause was introduced into 13 and 14 Vic., c. 94, sec. 23, enabling their possessors to make posthumous restitution. We repeat, that if nothing else had been effected, this would be much ; and we would venture to express a hope, that the means put at the Trust's disposal will be largely augmented, as its objects, and what it has already accomplished, become more generally known and appreciated. It has already a branch association established in Liverpool, including the names of several, both clergy and laity, who are ever found foremost in every good work : but, assuredly, this great town ought to do more than it has yet done. In conclusion, we beg to call the attention of our readers to an advertisement connected with this subject, which appears in our co- lumns to-day. FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. MONDAY MORNING. POPULAR impatience has long formed a theme for the poli- tical moralist. In few instances has the general weakness been more signally or more universally displayed than in re- lation to the intelligence which day by day has been expected from the Crimea. Two long and anxious weeks have now elapsed since the people of these kingdoms were apprised of the success which had rewarded the sustained courage and active bravery of the Allied armies, in their arduous and pro- tracted endeavours to reduce Sebastopol. A year or two ago, the intimation of the ultimate and crowning results could not have been communicated in double the length of time; now all classes are clamorous and dissatisfied, because we have not as yet received ample details, not only of what has been done, but also in reference to what is expected to follow from the great event itself. True, portions of those eagerly coveted details have, from time to time, been communi- cated, but these have not been sufficient to satiate the general curiosity, and, so far from satisfying, they have only tended to whet the public appetite for news. The more frank commu- nications of General PELISSIER have been contrasted with the laconic announcements 'of General SIMPSON, greatly to the disadvantage of the latter as an efficient narrator of interest- ing events. At length his official dispatch has been handed over to the .public, and that sapient body finds itself not greatly wiser than it was before. The most gratifying feature in the document referred to is its confirmation of the entire success of the operations directed against Sebastopol. From this despatch, or, more properly speaking, from the scraps of intelligence which it rather countenances than con- firbls, enough can be gleaned to justify conjecture as to the probabitty of future operations, and to warrant the indulgence of those raptures of satisfaction with the tidings of the over- throw of Sebastopol by which they were at' first' greeted. Observing men of all Parties concur in the opinion that, by the conquest, of that stronghold, a vital blow has been struck 'at Russian domination. The prestige of superiority in military matters, which the partisans and parasites of Russia so inces- santly inculcated, has been dispelled. The carefully and stealthily accumulated preparations for aggressive warfare, which for more than a quarter of a century have been sedu- lously pushed forward by Russia, have been torn from her grasp and shown to the world. Explanations of Russian po- licy henceforward receive their truest elucidation in the spoils of Sebastopol. No amount of credulity will now be sufficient to induce the belief that such an enormous aggregation of military and naval stores could be deemed.part of a dgensive provision for Sebastopol. Four thousand pieces of cannon, together with the vast stores of the munitions of war, fallen into the hands of the captors, point unmistakeably to the fact that Sebastopol was the centre of Russian designs against the territory of the East. The reduction of Constantinople, though,without doubt, the main, was not the only object aimed at by the concentration of so vast an amount of military and naval preparation as perhaps was never before equalled. From this fortress were also intended to be drawn the materials of war to be directed against Circassia and the Transcaucasian provinces. Here was likewise concentrated that fleet which, by such feats of arms as the massacre of Sinope, was meant to annihilate rivalry on the Black Sea; and, by exterminating an adverse navy, convert the Euxine into a Russian lake. If this conclusion be considered too sweeping, let him who de- murs cast a glance at the results. The fleet assembled at Se- bastopol, when the Allies invaded the Crimea, consisted of one hundred and eight vessels, five of which carried each a hun- dred and twenty guns, the aggregate number of guns carried by this formidable navy being not less than two thousand two hundred. Not even the imaginative scribe who, in the co- lumns of Le Nord, describes the Russian flight from Sebas- topol as a master-stroke of strategy, can hope to demonstrate the necessity of such a flotilla in an inland sea as a merely defensive measure. As already remarked, the amount of cap- tured warlike spoils has been immense, and the character of these spoils is hardly less significant than their extent. Five hundred thousand pounds weight of gunpowder have already been secured, together with a hundred thousand rounds of shot and shell, and more of both are yet expected to be met with. Not an ounce of grain or food of kny sort is men- tioned as having fallen into the hands of the victors. This is too remarkable a fact to be passed over in silence. The retreat of the Russians was too precepitate to admit of their carrying with them in great quantity commissariat stores ; but, if they had not time to carry off food, they had still less time for destroying it. A flying enemy, which has not time to carry off its wounded, could not have had time to carry away stores of provision —a fugitive host, which had to decamp, leav- ing behind it two hundred and twenty odd tons of gunpowder, was not likely to have time for the effectual destruction of its food. If no food was left, then the conjecture seems at least a feasible one, which attributes its absence to previous'exhaustion. This subject has attracted great attention in military circles. If the granaries of Sebastopol were exhausted, it is no wide stretch of fancy to suppose that the north forts and the encampments on the MacKenzie heights had no provi- sions to supply them with ; and that even their more distant sources of supply were empty. Should this conjecture prove a true one, with what chance or hope of success can the Rus- sian army attempt to hold its ground through the now rapidly-approaching winter ? Their position, in such a case, must be, indeed, a hopeless one. Within a few weeks, sup- pose no hostile force were near them, their connexion with the grain -producing districts of Russia will be effectually cut off by the weather and the impassable state of the roads. The pro-Russian journals and advocates of all kinds, ostentatiously, although no doubt with great exaggeration, represent the Russian army of the Crimea as still 200,000 strong. How, it is asked, can such an army be supported in the southern por- tion of the Crimea during the next six months P Consideration of this important question favours the conjecture that no time will be lost by Prince GORTSCHA.KOFF in leading his army out of the Crimea; but this, if not effected speedily, will be impossible. Should the attempt to evacuate the Crimean peninsula be delayed till after the commencement of the winter, a retreat then undertaken would be as fatal as the disastrous retreat from Moscow was to the French, in 1812. Whatever policy is to guide the Russian councils in reference to its defensive operations must be undertaken without delay, and acted on with promptitude. Whatever this may be, the gain of the allies from the fall of Sebastopol begins to manifest itself on all hands; and it seems difficult to over-estimate the advantages accruing from it. The actual material trophies, although seldom equalled and never surpassed in war, are pro- bably the least important portion of the benefit. It has broken the factitious prestige with which the Russians had contrived A invest their military pretensions, and which, even in the ruin of defeat, they seek to bolster up by ill-timed bravado. In addressing his army, the CZAR says. The prolonged de- fence of Sebastopol, a defenee almost unexampled in the annals of war, has fixed the attention not only of Russia but of entire Anything more bombastically absurd;or more his- torically untrue than this it is not easy to conjecture. The defence of Sebastopol, though dogged, and obstinately pro- tracted, is not by any means almost unexampled in the annals of war. In numerous instances we read of more protracted defences, in the annals of ancient war; but without falling back much beyond our own day, it will be found that the defence of Saragossa was more chivalrous and spirited ; and if the siege of Gibraltar be referred to, it will be apparent that Sebastopol, with all its boasted Russian glories, falls infinitely short of that extraordinary defence which was conducted against the combined forces of France and Spain for no less a period than four years, terminating with the utter defeat of the besieging fleets and armies—a result in which it signally differed from that of Sebastopol. Aproverb informs us,that whatever is asserted with sufficient pertinacity and boldness, secures implicit credence. The in- vincibility of Russia is one of those drafts on public credulity which has obtained currency entirely from the boldness, with which the mendacious statement has been made. One fact, not the least remarkable, connected with the statement referred to, is the belief it has secured in quarters where superior in- formation might reasonably have been expected. Thus ) not long ago, the gallant soldier and veteran warrior Sir GEORGE BROWN informed his wondering countrymen, at a public banquet given to him at Elgin, that Russia is the most gigantic military power ever seen on Such en opinion expressed by such a man is apt to produce effects the most mischievous. If analysed, the averment will be found to weigh but little. The population of Russia is estimated at 60,000,000, but these it should be remembered are spread over CP space equivalent to nearly one-seventh of the habitable globe: She has few roads, and is subject to all the rigours of an extreme climate ; her people are ignorant passive serfs ; her sea.board' is small and bad ; and her resources are scanty. These circum- stances, if duly marshalled and applied, render her a formidable military power for resistance, but detract from her importance as an aggressive power. Hence it will be seen all through her history, that her acquisitions have been rather the result of politic cunning and patient greed than of bold! aggres- sion. The vast stores which she has been able to accu- mulate at one or two particular points (as at Sebastopol), offer no contradiction to the general truth of these remarks; and the fact that, with all her energies devoted to the task of protect- ing these stores by every contrivance afforded by science and by art has not enabled Russia to render them available against an enemy, or even to preserve them for her own• use, is the strongest possible evidence that she is not a gigantic military Wherever her troops have • encountered those of the Allies, a uniform fate—defeat—has awaited the Russian arms, whether acting on the defensive or as assail- ants. In short, the great sham of military superiority has been cudgelled out of them. Dispirited ands. discouraged, after a dogged defence of the strongly fortified positions of Sebastopol, they precipitately decamped while a stern resis- tance was still within their power, and are • no*, so far as present appearances warrant a conjecture, itt:the extreme of a, military dilemma. The spirits of our own brave fellows are-in high order, and:, notwithstanding the privations and labours to which they have been so long inured, they retain a taste for jocularity and a relish for fun which speak favourably of their mental. and physical condition. Their excellent spirits are referred to by the correspondents of most of the journals ; and one i , ,as an illustration, alludes to the dramatic performances, at the Theatre ' Royal, Naval From the bill ant. nouncing these, it is seen that the pieces performed, before a really distinguished were Deaf as a the `` Silent and, - appropriately enough, Slasher and The correspondent alluded to noting the -perfor- mances- in the following terms.:- - And right well they played. True, the theatre was.. the amputating house of the Brigade, but no reflections as to its future and past use marred the sense of. present enjoyment. The scenes were furnished from ' The London,' the actors from the men of the Brigade. There was an agreeable ballet girl who had to go into the trenches to work a 68-pounder at three o'clock in the morning, and Rosa was impersonated by a prepossessing boatswain's mate. Songs there were in plenty, with a slight smack of the forecastle, and a refrain. of big guns booming down the ravine from the front; but they were all highly appreciated, and the dancing was pronounced to be worthy of her BIAJEsT)es, ere TERPSICHORE and 116. Luinvr retired from the concern. Nor were fashionable and illustrious personages wanted to grace the performance with their presence, and to relieve the mass of two thousand com- moners who cheered, and laughed, and applauded so good- humouredly.

The same sense of enjoyment was not marred by the long-range guns, which used now and then to send a lobbing shot near the theatre, and never did any harm ; and if the audience were amused so were the performers, who acted with surprising spirit and taste: sayis the correspondent. old BENBOW or grim old CLOUDESLEY SHOVEL have thought of it all Either, or both of them would, or should have speedily arrived at the conclusion that fellows who, under such circumstances, could so deport them- selies, were men of the right stamp to seek • . ---- the bubble reputation, • Even in the cannon's mouth. While cursorily glancing the mind's eye over the past of the Crimea, the question forcibly obtrudes itself, what of the future ? Already the pro-Russian party, disregarding the bluster of the CZAR, who says that he will never make peace after a have begun to take the matter so far out of his hands. The Frankfort Post Gazette is informed by a letter from a good source at Vienna that a fresh attempt is •to be made to re-establish peace. fresh says this organ of instruction, is'spoken of as having been concluded between France and England on the one part, and Turkey on the other part. The object is to invest the Western Powers with the right of keeping garrisons in various parts of Turkey. The points specified are Varna, Adrianople, Con- stantinople, and Gallipoli.. Varna and Sinope would be used as maritime stations by the Western The date of the foregoing proposition is the 14th of the present month, or four days after the evacuation of the town of Sebastopol by the Russians. Other rumours, from kindred quarters, repre- sent the EMPEROR of the FRENCH as one whose are turned on the sole condition of which he is said to centre in reimbursement of the expenses incurred in prose- cuting the war. In this, as in many other instances, without doubt, wish is father to the The EMPEROR of the FRENCH knows well that if the Western Powers wish for a safe and honourable peace, they must carry on war with- out relaxing, until a security be obtained for Russian good faith in the conquest of Russian provinces. While Sebastopol, and with it the superiority of the Crimea, remains in the hands of the Allies, the power and predomi- nance of Russia is destroyed, not merely in the Black Sea, but in all the countries which surround its margin, and by which alone she has obtained access to them. The allied fleets, now relieved from the blockade of Sebastopol, are in a condition to strike a terrible and decisive blow at Odessa, or at any other of the Russian seaports in the south-east of Europe, or the west of central Asia. The struggle which has placed the AllieS in this position has been a formidable one; and whatever may be the current of events, humanity, justice, and policy, demand that the Crimea should not be restored to Russia. The powerful lesson she has been taught in the loss of Sebastopol will not be lost upon her. If she regain possession of that stronghold, however that possession may be fettered by the paper restric- tions of well-drawn treaties, ' all her course of existence concurs in showing that she will again convert it into a means of enabling her to make a swoop upon Constantinople, with this difference, that in the second instance she will not content herself with rendering its fortress impregnable by sea alone, but will so dispose its land defences as to convert Sebastopol into the Gibraltar of the Euxine. For any serious operation against Constantinople a fleet is indispensable to Russia. This, with Sebastopol in her possession, she will speedily re-acquire if the Crimea be retained, by the Allies establishing a mode rate land force with proper defences at Perekop, and a smal squadron of ships at Sebastopol, her capability as an aggres sive power in the East is annihilated. The experiences of the Crimean campaign have been in some respects anomalous when viewed in connexion with the ordinary routine of military* matters, not the least remark- able of the anomalies being the introduction of civilians into the camp. The pioneers in this species of innovation were the able volunteer corps of correspondents for the London press, a body of men to whom the army and the nation are deeply indebted for the intrepidity and skill with which they combatted and conquered a foe as fell as that which lay behind the defences of Sebastopol. The next novelty was the intro- duction of a corps of navvies, and the formation of a rail Way, not of the best construction as- some rumours say; bwt still a veritable railway to the camp. Next comes the organization of what is called the Army-Works Corps, entrusted, of all people' on earth, to Sir Joni's PAXTON. What partieular facilities for organising such a troupe was possessed by the lucky Chatsworth gardener is best known to those wild, dis - covering the multifarious bends of his genius, sought his alliance. That Sir Josurn understands a thing or two no one doubts; and his peculiar talent far organization , has displayed itself in various ways, his latest known feat in that line of art having found record in the Field, a journal with which the crystalline knight was presumed to be on terms , of more than passing intimacy.

ON-it leisurely visit to the-exhibition, attention is called to a picture, .No. 74 in the catalogue, .by a circumstance extra- neous to itself, and without which, in all probability, it would escape any great amount of general observation. The cir- cumstance referred to, it will be readily perceived,. is the good fortune which has attended it in being, selected as the Academy's-prize picture. The picture, or rather-the pictures, for there are two of them, although surrounded by one frame, is designated, Life and Death of by Mr. Augustus L. Egg, A.R.A. . and with this meagre information and, the aid of two scenes theatrically contrasted, together with the peculiarity of the costume in the.first, the spectator is supposed to know that the artist's intention is to represent the style of life, and to , typify the miserable death of the pro- gigate favourite of Charles Its The precise rule by which the awards its eoronal is not very easily comprehended- by a reference to its past practice, and the.present award does-, not- go far in the way of clearing_ up whatever mystery. may have heretofore attached to it. Whatever the rule may be, however,, is of less consequence in the present instance than the fact that by its deliberate judgment it has accorded a premium to a. work of art peculiar in , its. construction, and thereby, so far as the Academy has the power to do so, conferring on, that the character of a praise-. worthy style of art. There is,not much of novelty in an artist, who intends to convey a moral, having recourse to a series of tableaux, in which he shall work out the successive scenes of his pictorial drama. IT..tgarth was, a master in his, line of delineative teaching ; but in. his.painted satires the.gradations of character and incident were close and rapidly successive. The spectator was impelled through the various. steps of the hero or heroine's progress in such a manner as •to leave. nothing; untold. Such is not the ease. in the dug representation before us. In the first, we are introduced to a scene of riotons profligacy, in which wine and wa ss ail an d questionable women form the leading features ; in the next a wretched bedstead, with miserable hangings, and the , few trifling accessories. introduced, betoken squalor and desertion ; while a minute investigationleads to the farther knowledge that on that deserted pallet is stretched, la the agonies. of death, the once gay and licentious Buckingham. The contrast is too sudden ; the mind is unable to comprehend so total a reverse, and the incidents, and consequently much of the teaching of the story, are lost. This, in an ethical point of view, is a serious drawback to the pictures as a painted moral. If their claims in this respect are to be with- drawn, or greatly modified, their attributes as works of art will scarcely stand them in much stead. In the first scene, the principal figure, that of Buckingham himself, seems to be ornamented with a head entirely inanimate and immoveable, the eyes alone being capable of motion, while the features are rigid and inexpressive. In the second the ghastly bead is al- most lost in the monotonous semi-tones of leaden gray by which it is surrounded; and the intended moral of the picture is but scurvily carried out by the faithful delineation of the velvet breeches in which the dying man is attired, and the ostenta- tious display of the garter, which hangs over the bed. Th e treatment of both parts of the subject indicates a poverty of artistic resources, and a barrenness of invention incompatible with pretensions to the highest consideration of artistic excel- knee, and such as might with justice lead to doubt as to their right to a place in the secondary rank of art. Faulty drawing, and heavy, opaque colouring are conspicuous features in the work which the Liverpool Academy, in the exercise of its wis- dom, has thought right to honour. Whether, in doing so, it is conducing to the progress of legitimate art, or lending its in- fluence in an opposite direction, may well admit of question. N 0.128.

Henry Cooke, who had been doing duty in Dr. Hilcoat's absence. In the dis- pute between the rev. gentlemen it would appear the ma- jority of the congregation took part with Mr. Cooke, while some antlered to the side of the incumbent. Dr. Hilcoat had intended to conduct the services on Sunday, haying previously announced his intpntion to do so. Ile ascended the reading desk; but had proceeded no further than Dearly when nearly the whole con grega ti on rose simultaneously, and with few exceptions walked out of the church in a body.

THAMES. VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A POLICE•CONSTABLE.—JOhn Driscoll, a dirty-looking fellow, with only a few rags on his person, 'and a beard of a fortnight's growth, the very beau ideal of a drunken Irish tailor, who are always worse clothed than any other person, was charged with committing a violent assault on Henry Cotton, a police- constable, No. 60 H. The policeman stated that the prisoner was very dis- orderly on Tower-bill last night, and shouting and screaming loudly. He interfered with the prisoner, who began kicking him as hard as he was able, and swore he would kick him to pieces. He took the prisoner into custody, and he acted in a most obstreperous manner, struck him repeatedly, and at last fell on the ground and kicked and plunged violently. He obtained other assistance, and conveyed the prisoner to the station- house. The prisoner had been in custody before for dis- orderly conduct, and was a most troublesome character. Mr. Yardley—When was the prisoner in custody before I Roche, the gaoler—He was here a very few days ago for riotous and disorderly conduct. Mr. Yardley sentenced the prisonor to 14 days' im- prisonment in the House of Correction. ASSAULT BY AN AMERICAN SEAMAN.— William Long, an American seaman, who only arrived in this port yes- terday, was charged with assaulting John Ryan, a police- constable, 214 H. Ryan stated that he found the prisoner asleep at an early hour this morning under an arch of the Blackwall Railway. Upon arousing him, the prisoner knocked him down, and when he got up kicked him and struck him under the ear. He called for assistance, and four came to his aid and secured the prisoner, who was very much intoxicated. Mr. Yardley fined the prisoner 405., which he paid. ROBBEitY BY A DIITCHMAN.—Johannas Jandersloan, a Dutchman, was brought before Mr. Yardiey charged with stealing a pint pot and two drinking glasses. Henry Geels, barman at the Sun and Sawyers public- house, in Whitechapel, said the prisoner was drinking at the house in company with other foreigners yesterday. As the prisoner was leaving the house a person called attention to him, and he detained him and found a pint pot tied behind his back and two drinking glasses in his pockets. They belonged to Mr. Junge, the landlord of the house. A foreigner said the prisoner came to this country last Sunday to join the Foreign Legion, and he was rejected. The British Government would take no more Dutchmen, because they were constantly quar- relling with the Germans in the Legion. Many Ger- mans had deserted in consequence of the bad conduct of the Dutch. Mr. Yardley—The prisoner is a very dis- honest man, and the Foreign Legion has had a very lucky escape. I sentence him to one month's bard labour in the House of Correction.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. SOUTH-EASTERN. The directors of this company have just issued their report. It states that the receipts of the South-Eastern Company, for the half-year ending the 31st of July last, amounted to 438.7791. The working expenses and re- newals amounted to 200;456/. ; the rates, takes, tolls,' and Government duty to 33,6551. ; the rents 'of the Greenwich Railway, Deptford Creek-bridge, and Anger- stein branch and wharf, to 23,220/ ; sures, in addition to 62,6381., the interest of the mortgage debt 20 5001. South-Eastern' Annuities ; and 13,7681. gua- ranteed stock, make a total deduction from the gross .earnings of .354,239/. The profit and . loss account shOws a balance of 13;887/. from the last account, as ,well as'll,4Bll. the net earnings at the credit of the steam-boat account, and is debited with 4,096/. for Par- lisunentary awl other expenses, leaving a disposable balance of 105,812/. The directors recommend, a divi- dend at the rate of Bs. 6d. per 301. stock, or at the rate of 2/. 168. 84. 'per cent. per annum, which will absorb 105,310/. and leave 501/. A comparative statement of passenger traffic shows an increase in the receipts of 2;7621. on the main line and branches, of 1,2721. on the Neith Kent line, and a decrease of 1,7981. on the Greenwich line, as compared with the corresponding period of 1854. The inirease in the goods traffic on the ,rnain line and branches amounted to 3.4621., and on the North Kent line to 1. 7561. ; total, 5,2181. The revenue account shows an Increase in the gross receipts fur the hal-year of 7,8671., and a net lucre se of 2,199/. in the steam-boat receipts ; making together 10,066/. The profit and loss account exhibits a credit balance of 13,8871. from the previous half-year, in- °wine' 8,842/. which had been paid to the 31st of January on account of the costs in the matter of the Croydon acchlent. Mr. Seymour Clarke, who was appointed arbitrator under an agreement between the London, Brighton, and South Coast Company and this company, having .recently awarded that 85 per cent. of the damage is to he paid by the Brighton Company, and 15 per cent, by this company, 'a por- tion of the above reserved balance accordingly be- comes available in the present half-year. The profit and loss account also shows that the balance - of net re- eeipts from traffic for the half-year (including the steam- boat receipts) is 216 148/. s- against 2,24.772/. in the corresponding bait' year of 1854, or a decrease of 8,6231. This decrease has been caused principally by the increase in the expenses of the locomotive dui artmeet and by the increased rate of intereer paid on borrowed money. Of' the total increase of 9.9561 in the expenses of the loco- motive department, 4.3941. has arisen from the increased price paid for coke, and the remainder from the costs in- curred in the repairs and renewal of engines and tenders, carriages and waggons. The increasei aliount paid as interest on loans during the half-year has amounted to 6.095/. ; and there has also been a ,, increase of 2,542/ in the dividend payable on the fixed 46 per cent, shares issued under the powers of the Stro , (d and Maidstone Act, which is required by the erovieions of that act to be charged against rev enu e, a l t h oug h th e li ne i s only in course of construction. The engineer reports that these works are proceeding satisfactorily, and that the blanch will probably he and ready for traffic by the Ist of July next, when the capital expended on this line will become productive, instead of being, as it now is, a serhus charge upon the company's revenue; On the whole, the result of the last half-year's working of the railway may be regarded as satisfactory. The increase of former years both in the receipts from goods and pas sengers has been more than maintained, notwithstanding the severity of the past winter and the pressure upon tare resources of the country caused by increased taxation. The steam-boat traffic also exhibits a steady increase. The expenditure on capital account during the half-year has bees 116,857/., prinpipaliyin connection with the works on the Strood and Maidstone branch. A portion of the ca- pital expenditure hasalso been incurred in connection with the works on the. Reading Extension, by which the t,r- minus of that railway is braught more immediately into connection with the Realing station of the GI eat Western CemparV. The extension is now completed and ready. for public traffic.' The directors propose that about 2,000,000/. of the bonded debt should he converted into debenture stock, bearing interest at the rate of 4 per cent, per annum. As the average interest paid by the company is 46 per cent., the company will save a coed- derable sum annually by the conversion. The ceP4al account shows that 11,287,5631. had been expended to the 30th of June last, The debenture ac- count shows that 2,625,100/. had been raised, of which 1.063,3721. was borrowed at 5 per cent.; 345.0701. at 4i per cent. ; 533.8701. at 44 per cent. ; 228,6301. at 41 r.er cent. ; 402,1011. at 4 per cent. ; 38,500/. at 3i per cent. ; 11,050/. at 31 per cent. ; and 2,5001. at 3 per cent. EASTERN CO UNTIES. It appears that the directors of this company intend to declare a dividend of 4Q. 6J, per share fur the half- year ending the 30th of June last. SOUTH WALES. The capital account of this company to the 30th of June last shows that 3,907.0141. had been received, and 4933/. expended,. includi ng 184 . 5 97 1 . i n subscrip- tio(m6s7lo other companies, leaving a balance • against the company of 160,9191. The revenue account for the last half-year ending the 30th of June shows that 137,192/. had been received, and 85,189/. expended, leaving a ba- lance of 52,0021. To this 'is added 8,8321. from the last account, 2,8831. tolls from the Forest of Dean tramway, 1,872/. dividends on shares held in the Vale of Neath R a ilway, 3.6111. earnings of waggon stock, and 19,2501 Great Western fixed rent, making 88,4831. From this is deducted.7lol. for rents, 26,535/, interest on loans, and 11.6241. assumed amount due to the Great Western under the agreement of 1851, together 38.8701., leaving a disposable balance of 49,612/. Out of this is deducted 7.745/. for dividend on guaranteed 201. shares, and 36,7251. for dNidecd on the ordinary shares at the rate of 3 per 'cent. per annum, leaving a balance over of view to save expense, certain f rrnal admissions bad been made by the London and nalli-Western Company. DEARNESS VALLEY. fiat meting of this company was held at York Thursday; Mr. Pease ill the chair. . The report ,gated that the-act of ihcorporation received the royal anent on the 30th of July last, and that it had been obtained at 'comparatively little expense and with- out any Parliamentar'y contest. The length of the live, as authorised to he made, is about five miles and five furlongs; and will cost about 40,0001. The line will pass over a valuable coalfield. - On the motion of Mr. Leeman, seconded by Mr. Plews, the report was Adopted, the retiring directors Were re:el.-eted, with one exception, and the proceedings terminated: • LL &NIDLOES AND NEWTOWN.

The directors were informed that great pro- uress had been made in the formation ,of a line from Newtown to 1 1 .Iachyntleth, and which would secure to this line the traffic of-the South and. North-West coats. The directors were anxilus to commence the works on the Llani Hoes and Newtown line as aoln as possible, but they could not do so until about 1.5,000/. additional shares were. tziken ; and, with the view of facilitating the com- mencement of the works, the direct rs proposed shortly to submit to the ownirs of land required for the line that they . should take out the price f the -ame in shares, r Accept an annual renteharw.in lien of purchase-money. The pr.!bable local tmtfic likAy to pass over the line time estimated at-nearly 4 per cent. per annum on-the aw.ho- rifled capital. .

Sir.—The Queen, Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal, arrived on the 19th instant, in the Victoria and yacht, at Boulogne, where her Majesty was received by the Emperor of the French, amidst the salutes of the arniy of Boulogne, posted on the heights. and the acclamations of a vast concourse of people assembled for the occasion. At Amiens, where the Queen stopped for a Fhort t end along the whole line of ra. I way, her Majesty was re- ceived with every demonstration of respect and kind feeling. At Paris, from the station to St Cloud, these feelings were manifested in the strongest manner; and I can con• vey no better idea of the reception of her Majesty by the people of Paris than by stating, that the enthusiasm was quite as great as that which greeted the Emperor and Em- press on their arri'ial in London. The same cordial welcome has been given to the Q•men at the various places where her Majesty has since appeared in public; and her Msj,stv is profoundly sensible of the spontaneous and universal kindress which has bgen dis- played towards her by the people of France. - It is impossible to doubt that the Queen's visit will still More closely cement the alliance which now so happily subsists batween the Sovereigns and the people of Ei.gland and France. • • I cm happy to inform you that the Queen, Prinee Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal are in perfect health.—l have, &c., CGAR.

But, although the absolute power of the --French empire resides in the personal will of the Sovereign, it cannot he a matter of indifference when &Minister who has served that power with fidelity and judgment retires from its service on a question of policy or of personal susceptibility. Both these causes have probably contributed to the resignation of Al. Drouyn de I'Huys, the late Minister for Foreign Affairs in France, who has just quitted the pOst he had filled for nearly three years with considerable ability and success. The talents of M. Drouyn de l'Ffuys may have been over- rated, for the despatches which bore his name and extended his reputation are well known to have proceeded from the pen of another gentlem.sn in the Department of Foreign Affairs; but he is fairly entitled to the credit of straight- forward dealing with this country, and to the honour of having successfully 'established the diplomatic relations of the French empire with the rest of Europe. It was his singular fortune to negOtiate treaties of alliance both with the Crown of England and with that of Austria ; and, al- though he was engaged in transactions which have led to .a fierce and protracted contest, these events did not alter the moderation of his opinions or the prudence of his cha- racter. But in the office over which he presided these qualities were not always paramount, and the personal relations of the Minister with those who participated in his labours were cold, jealous, and disagreeable. M. Thouvenel, in particular, who was appointed to supply his : plan) during the mission of the Minister to Vienna, had so much reason to resent the treatment he received from his official chief that he placed his resignation a few days ago in the hands of the Emperor.. The! resrlt, however, was that M. Thouvenel was raised to a far higher post by being named to the Embassy at Constantinople, and M. Drouyn de l'fluys withdrew from office within 48 hours after his return to Paris. s e e n l b ; remained suppose that this dispute is the We do not, howevec i ,. aalnecraste,so6f the important resignationa crisis.o f the n sole,l,ore Foreign even ia i t a li ee e r p principal c F r h s p e e a p k r i o n a g e e o d f a M d M. to D r joinony n t h ci e e Lhuys' cou f e e v n i a s e i t a t t o udon , before w ere marked that on his arrival here he:was disposed Vienna,3 take a lower tone than the British Cabinet were disposed to adopt, ut o n u ta r ii nn o e w tdh n ea teoGovernment.vuriseenuoaf two thiso rhAtashrrmleoeonngy days a a s o ne L tui o bn rd sueeqd J u o ue h nn n t. although he subsequently assented to all the views enter- taineditbruo to the departure of the British Plenipotentiary M. Drouyn de Lbuys appears to have discussed and arranged with Count Buol a proposition of terms of, peace widely different from that on which the allied courts had previously agreed. This scheme, what. ver it may be, was unhesitatingly re- jected by the head of the French Go.erunient as soon as it was made known in Paris, and the British Government were equally satisfied that no honourable peace could be concluded on such a basis, for the effect of this condition was barely to limit the naval strength of Russia in the Black Sea to the force she already possessed before the out- break of the present hostilities. M. Drouyn de Lhuys ap- pears to have thought that peace might have been procured on these term. ; but, as this was not the opinion of the 'Government which he served, or of the allied Government with which he was acting, this difference of policy led to his retirement from office on the teradeation of his Vienna mission. It is not only on the ground of the inadequacy of these terms that we are 'satisfied the Western Powers could not with honour or consistency accept them. To desist from the war without having succeeded in the object we pro- posed to attain by the expedition to the Crimea, and with- outlaying materially lessened the power and pride of Russia, would simply beto increaseher influence throughout the East and the central States of Europe andtolower the reputation of two nations which have hitherto claimed the first rank in military and naval warfare. To that result the people of Englaikl, and we believe that we may add the people of France, a ye not prepared to submit ; such a peace would be fatal to the G overnments by which it might be con cluded, for it would be judged of, not so much by the terms we might actually obtain from Russia, as by our failure to enforce those con ditions which have been solemnly declared to be essential to the future security of the Ottoman empire an :1 of Europe. Moreover, in sug- gesting these terms the Cabinet of Vienna does not appear to have possessed any assurance that they woull be ac- cepted by that of St. Petersbure, and the allied Powers would thus have seemed to sue for the peace Which they have every right to dictate. Under these circumstances, whatever may have been the opinion of M. Drouyu de l'Huys, the Emperor of the French and the Queen of England had no alternative but to reject such a proposition and to prosecute the war until fresh overtures are made by the submission of the enemy. This incident is in reality no more than the epilogue to the Conference of Vienna, anti it disposes of the last illusion which that negotiation may have raised. To supply the place of the late Minister of Foreign Affairs the choice of the Emperor of the French has st once fallmo on Count Walewski, who has for several years filled the office of Ambassador at this Court. In some re- spects no better choice could at this time be made: Count Walewski has laboured with great assiduity ai d good faith to promote the alliance of the tw o Govern- ments , and the two 'nations; he is intimately ac- quainted with the political views of the British Ministry; and he has uniformly endeAroured to give energy to the prosecution of the war. But it is not im- possible that this change may produce a perceptible effect on the relations of France with sonic of tho other States of Europe, and that the policy of the Empire may be modified by the loss of one of its most cautious ad- visers. The choice of the Emperor is restricted within the narrow circle of the immediate adherents of the Impe- rial family, and M. Drouyn de I'Huys had an independence of position not easily 0 be supplied. The Embassy of London also becomes vacant by this change, and the names of M. de Persigny. 'M. de Flahault, and M. de Rayneval have been mentioned for this appointment. We abstain, however, from offering, any remarks on this subject, in our E F tu r p en er c o h r C of a t b h i e ne le n irch 7. ignorancetwaikl l c ; le i , t i rceao thatut o he doubtedhbdiesecis which representative that tthh , e n this country should combine the highest personal distinction with great poli- tical judgment and experience, for it is more than ever necessary to our success that the strictest confidence and union should regulate the councils of our alliance and the operations of our arms. (Front the Morning Post of this day.) _ The most recent advices from Paris place it beyond a doubt• that the Minister for For ign Affairs, M. Diouyn de iglus, has thought it incumbent up on him to place his resignation of office in the hands of the Emperor, and that it has , e n accepted by his Majesty. I t further appea ' rs 13 that Count Walowski who hastily left London yesterday morning, is to succeed to the vacant portfolio. The resignation of M. Drouyn de l'Huys will be viewed with universal regret, for in the most difficult and arduous circumstances of the tangled and long negotiations which have resulted from the Eastern question, he had won infi- nite credit and alastink fame; and, althoughit is wellknown that the Emperor himsel f p ersonall y directs the policy of France, and sways the destinies of thegreat nation which has. a ppointed him its ruler, it v , as nevertheless understood that man of M. Drouyn do l'Huys personal poon as one of the wealthiest men in France, of his known pre- cedenta, of his grasp'of Iliad and independence of t hou g ht, co uld not hold offic e without eiercising a large and salu- tary influence in the direction of those affairs of which we have so frequently, read the lucid exposition in his eloquent and famous :cotes. we must wait for explanation of the circumstances at- tendant upon the change in the French Ministry from the official columns of the Moniteur, but at the same time it may be well to observe that there is reason to believe that the step taken by M. Drouyn de Lhuys was dictated, in great measure, by motives and susceptibilities the result of personal views in connection with his recent mission to Vienna. Lord J. Russell fully expressed the position of affairs at Vienna on the adjournment of the Conferences, when he said the other day in the house, that the plenipotentiaries had exha usted their that is, they had fully proposed, and had recei v e d co mplete rejec tion of, the posi- tive and ultimate terms agreed upon in London, when the French Minister for Foreign Affairs paid a flying visit to this country , for the purpose of finally and precisely ad 7 j us ting our demands, before he proceeded iu person to pro- secute them at Vienna. The Conferences having at length been adjourned sine die, in consequence of the rejection of our prepositions, and o ur refusal even to discuss the absurd pro p osals of Russia ; th ere were, neverthe less, it is notorious, several attem p ts point, which is, af t e r all, the most vital matter in dis p ute. It is believed, whe ther correctly remains to be seen, that made at methods f of a new proposi tion started by Austria, the French Mi- nister gave an adhe sion so complete that he even corn- refshi a p t r a o r p p o r s e i t t i i o , i g n s , and that is, at fresh modes and giving force to the third m isted himself to procuring its acceptance at home; but if this were so, it is easy to comprehend that, if the new proposition did not, according to the views of the Allies, interpret and give force to the third point, then M. Drouyu de Lhuys must have placed himself in a false position, from which he could only be extricated by a re- signation of the office which he held. If this be the case, it is certainly not a little extraor- dinary that so distinguished a diplomatist should start for a certain place with the most definite and specific deter- mination of obtaining one thing, and should allow himself to be betrayed int o bringing home another. For the explanation of all this we must wait ; but, in the meantime, it is certain that in France the fall of a Minister does not indicate a change of policy, and it would be most erroneous to suppose, on the one hand, that, in consequence of the retirement of M. Drouyn tie Lhuys, France is less ready to maintain our fit m alliance and to carry on the war as long as it is necessary ; or, on the other, that the French Gove rnment is one 'whit less dis- posed' than ourselves to make an honourable and well- founded peace whenever so desirable a consummation may be attainable. If we needed further proof of this than our knowledge of the consistent poke- of the Emperor, w e m i g h t d er i ve it from the appointment of Count Walewski to the office vacated by the late Minister. His intimate relations with our Government, his complete knowledge of England, and the active part he has borne in the political tranasactions of the two great Western Powers, peculiarly fit him for the high post to , vhich , it would appear, 'has been called, and to succeed the distinguished statesman who will, personally, be as much regretted in Paris as Count Walewski will be in London. THE RULING FAMILY. ( From the Morning Herald of this day.) - • The great offices of the State are not monopolised by the aristoatacy as a class, but they are made the exclusive pe- culiar of a small family circle, to the exclusion alike of the rest of the aristocracy and the people.

Its utility, cleanliness, and freedom from all smoke and dust form an agreeable contrast to stoves formerly in use.

PROMOTION I.v THE GUARDS. The following letters have bean addreq:ied to the editor of the Times : Sir,—l shall feel much obliged by the inertion in your columns of the folio Ning correspondence, the pub- lication of which has been rendered necessary by the gross Misrepresentations of Mr. La)aid's speech at Liverpool as reported in your paper.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient , ervatit, A. E HARDINGF, Lietitenant Colonel, Coldstream Guatds. 15, Great Stanhope-street, April 25. (Copy No. 1. 15, Great Stanhope-street, April 23. dear Wilson,—l have this infant read a speech of Mr. Lay aril's, delivered at Liverpool, in which ho evidently alludes to you, introducing my name in the following manner : - I will give you an instance of a friend of mine, a gentleman who served throughout all those bati le. and dis- tinguished himself most signally. He carne overto is coon- try sick and almost dead. There were two men above him, officers in one of the Guards' regiments, who had never left England. They were tnemb,rs of high families, and they were promoted without purchase ; but my friend was a poor man, and they ma !e him pay 3,0001. for his emu- mission ; and why? Lord Hardiege's son was next to hill, and got his commission without purchase. (Loud cries of Shame ! shame !') I say these things are scandalous.' You are evidently the friend to whom Mr. Layard alludes, and I am more openly declared to be the officer whop as the son of the Coutnamier-iu-Chief, got my pro- motion for nothing. I call upon you, therefore, as an officer conversant with the rules of the service, to state whether the trans- action can bear in the slightest degree the colour given it by Mr. Layard. Your decision to purchase was uninfluenced by any but what appeared your best interests at the time, and did not affect your chance of obtaining year step without pur- chase by the accident of a death vacancy ; but you were not prepared, like Dawkins and Strong, to allow a junior (in their case Lord Dunkelliu) to pass over your head, the promotion coming in the usual way. Had you done so, I should have paid the 3,0001., taking my place above you in the regiment, and you would have succeeded to the vacancy caused by the promotion of Co- lonel the Hon. A. 'Upton to be a Major-General. mis-statement of Mr. Layard is so flagrant, by its insinuations as well as by the perversion of its facts, that I know you could not have been a party to it. Be so good as to give me an early answer, as you know that my ar- rangements are made to return to the Crimea.—Yours truly, A. E.

The Canadian is ordered to be paid out of the tranEport service. The paddle-wheel :steam -frigate Vulture, 6, Captain Frederick IL 11. Glasse, which left Kiel on the 12th inst., arrived in Plymouth Sound on Monday evening. The screw steam:sloop Conflict, 8, Commander Wm. C.

The Dutch ship New Holland, from Batavia for Am. sterdani, put into Plymouth Sound yesterday morning. On the 13th inst. in lat. 47 35 N., she saw a brig on fire, the stern burnt out. The schooner Elizabeth, Captain Price, of Newport, 40 days from Tarragona, for New• castle, put into the Sound yesterday. About 10 dap since her mate, Mr. Thos. Phillips, was knocked over. board by the spanker boom, and drowned. In consequence of the'Soadinian Government having discharged 9,000 men, on whose services they have .no further claim, and who are at liberty to .enter the British Italian Legion, this force will before long be complete. Colonel Hudson, the Inspector of the Legion, who now completing, at his office in the War Department, list of candidates for appointments, is still in want of row good English subaltern officers who can speak Ita. Tian, and whose colonels will vouch for their knowledgl of their duties as captains of companies. Yesterday 500 i,rtisans, handier:atm - nen, and navvies very carefully sele6ted for the duties which they wi have to discharge, embarked with their officers on boar' the Jura steam transport, and proceed at an early lioul to-day direct to the Crimea. They form a portion of Sin Joseph Paxton's Army Work Corps, and have bee organized by him as a special body always available for the work of the Commissariat, hitherto very expen sively 'and ineffectively performed by Croats an( other labourers hired in the East. They will not b placed under Mr. Doyne, but will have a chief civi lian superintendent of their own in Mr. Wakefield an active and zealous officer of the Works Corps, whos( experience in the colonies well qualifies him to fill thei situation. The formation of this body was not a sow gestion of the borne authorities, but originated in a di-1 rect application from the C om missary. General at thi seat of war, who has g ,t only half the number of men he asked for. The application was founded on the benefil which the Commissary General saw other department of the army deriving from the Works Corps, and is satisfactory testimony to the usefulness and excellent or : ganisation of the navvies. Not more than five week have elapsed sin c e Si r J ose ph Paxton received the ati4- thority to form this body, and it is already on its way tAi the Crimea, fully equipped and provided for the service which it will have to execute. It is worthy of notice,' also, that the numbers presenting themselves for admisl mion into the corps were frequently at the rate of 1,00 a day, and that the fellows who thus presented them selves are not lads, but stalwart brawny men inured tcl labour, and each capable of getting through more work than ary three of the Croat labourers now employed] Such is the estimate of their value made by the Commis.; ssry-General. Their wages, therefore, though somewhat above the scale at home, present a large economy as con' trasted with the cost of Turkish labour, and the greate portion of the amount remains in this country for th support of the men's families during their absence. They were mustered early yesterday morning near Sir Joseph, Paxton's house at Sydenitam, and proceeded thence in ay body by railway and steamer to Deptford, where the Jura was moored. A military band was in attendance to keep up their spirit., which, however, appeared to require little stimulus of the kind. Sir Joseph aCCODI panied them on board the transport to see that every airangement bad been made for their cmnfort and wel, fare on the passage. Miss Marsh, who has acquired much influence among the navvies at Sydenham, was also present, distributi ng re li g i ous books to the men and giving each a word of kindly advice at parting. The experimental iron mortar float No. 1 of that seriesi which was towed down to Shoeburyness from Woolwich a few days ago for experiments, returned yesterday morning. Her mortar (an ordinary 13-inch) fired 3g rounds on the first day's t r i a l, an d ou Tuesday the proof was continued. It was intended to have tested - this newly- constructed mortar-vessel to the extent of 300 rounds with the ordinary charge, when, at the 66`.1 discharge on the second day, the mortar split in equal divisions, in precisely T o f h t e h oae m portions,titself a has e m however,sustainedann er being a s n t lm o Beat damage carried B wbeyondbeab rg neither of nd theteironle bed. i r coating of the mortar bed, which, at the first concussion, shrank and sprang from the woodwork, ripping out the screws with irresistible force at each successive explosion, thereby strengthening the opinion of the superiority of a wooden framework in the formation of the mortar-bed. The annexed circular memorandum had been issued, directed to regiments and depots at home and abroad : Guards, Dec. 14. Commanding officers aro requested to cause all per- sons intrusted with the care of regimental ammunition to be strictly enjoined to avoid the use of iron hoops or iron nails in the heading up of cartridge barrels, or the presence of iron or grit amongst the percussion caps, car- tridges, or loose powder, if any should accumulate from broken cartridges taken from the men's pouches. it Th e use of iron nails in lotening on cards of address, when ammunition may be packed for return into store conveyance from one place to another, is al so t o b e s t r i c tly prohibited. 61 By command.

The subjoined circular has . been addressed to gene r al o r other officers commanding in the several districts and stations at home and abroad Horse Guards, Dec. 12. ir sir, —In transmitting the enclosed copy of resolu- tions (a detailed account of the meeting on the 29th ult. for t h e Nightingale Fund) adopted at a me e ti ng h e ld for the purpose of giving . the public an opportunity of expressing their approbation of the noble and benevolent exertions of Miss Nightingale for the improvement of the discipline and superintendence of military hospitals, the Field-Marshal Commanding-in-Chief desires that you will be pleased to cause the same to be notified to the commanding officer of every corps and department in the army under your command, in order that all ranks may be afforded the opportunity of contributing to- wards a fund which has for its object the extension of those laudable and charitable views of Miss Nightingale by which the army has already so materially benefitted. have, &c., A. In a paragraph going the rounds of the papers respect. ing Col. Henry White, of the Longford Militia, there are two slight inaccuracies. The gallant officer was a lieutenant, not captain,. in the 14th Light Dragoons, an d in the particular action referred to he had but one horse shot under him, and not three, as stated. The following appeared in our late edition last night : ADMIRALTY, WEDNESDAY EVENING. An erroneous impression appears to be entertained (arising from the publication of an imperfect document) with respot to the examination which is to be held _ _

To use their own words, by way of explanation, they state, Were we to buy it, it wo uld reduce our sales fully oue third, as two pounds of the Empire Soap will go as far as three pounds of any other soap ; we should also lose our profit on soda and washing powders,. as neither of these articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the hardest water or in sea What the grocers are displeased at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses , &c. It only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently less friction and wear in the clothes, and will not injure the colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally al every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it _ .a_nure vli s able for e soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, 'dracolts, detract from its wnfich not only add unnecessary weight to the soap cleansing properties.

THE MURDER IN ARTILLERY-LANE. INQUEST ON THE BODY. [The following appeared in our third edition of last evening.] _ _ This morning an inquest was held by W. Baker, jun., Esq., deputy-coroner for the eastern division of Middle- sex, at the Old Artillery-ground Court House, Fort- street, Spitalfields, on the body of Catherine Lordon, aged 45, who was so cruelly murdered yesterday morn- ing by her husband, Daniel Lordon, at their residence 15, Parliament-court, Artillery-passage, Artillery-lane, Bishopsgate-street. The jury having been sworn viewed the body. On their return the first witness called was John Davis, residing at 15, Artillery-passage, la- bourer. He deposed that he occupied an adjoining room in the same house with the deceased and her hus- band, who was a velvet weaver. Yesterday morning about seven o'clock, as he was lying awake in bed he heard screams of uttered seven or eight times by the deceased, and proceeding from her room, and her husband calling her opprobrious epithets. He heard the deceased open the door and run down stairs. Witness did not get up, because it was a frequent practice for the deceased to cry murder when having a row with her husband. About five minutes after he heard a person leave deceased's room and go down stairs, treading heavily like the footsteps of a man, when he heard deceased scream Murder three times, and the person immediately return to the room. Witness dressed himself and went down stairs about six or seven minutes after he heard the cries of murder, and saw the deceased sitting on the landing in a crouching posture. He ob- served blood on the upper landing against de ceased's door. When he came out of his room, deceased when he saw her appeared quite dead. There was a great quantity of blood about the landing, bannisters, and stairs, and also on her clothes. Witness went and informed his fellow-servant (Ellen Leary, residing at 7, Artillery-lane) what he had seen, and on his return to No. 15, in about ten minutes, he saw a doctor, a policeman, and the husband with the deceased. Lordon said to him, Holloa, Witness said to him, do you call this He re- plied, don't know ; it's a bad Witness said, Yes it The husband appeared as if he had been drinking. He did not observe deceased was wounded until Mr. Shaw, the surgeon, moved her head on one side. He had never heard the husband threaten his wife's life. They both drank very much, and he had interfered on more than one occasion to separate them when quarrelling and fighting. By the Jury—There were persons living on the floor where he found the deceased, but he did not alarm them. Sarah Elias, wife of a general dealer, resided in the same house as the deceased. She occupied the first floor back, and did not hear any noise yesterday morning. Had she heard any she should have taken no notice of it, it being such a frequent occurrence for the deceased and her husband to quarrel. About half-past seven o'clock, or 20 minutes to eight, witness came out of her room and found deceased sitting on the top stair of .the first flight of stairs, with her elbow on her lap, supporting her face with her bands. She saw blood about half a yard from where deceased was sitting. Witness passed her, went downstairs, and returned without speaking to her. About five minutes after her attention was called to the arrival cf a policeman, and Mr. Shaw, surgeon, and then it was she knew de- ceased was dead. She heard no screams of murder that morning. Witness was much disturbed about 2 o'clock in the morning by the deceased and her husband quar- relling in the street. Deceased was apparently tipsy at the time. Witness did not speak to deceased on the landing, considering she was in liquor. The husband was generally of quiet habits, and rarely tipsy ; but the deceased was scarcely sober one day in a month, and quarrelled with everybody. She used vile language. Witness never heard him call her other than dirty blackguard, you have been drinking Police sergeant, 13 11, Police constable, 59 H, and Inspector Marsh gave similar testimony to that before Mr. D'Eyncourt, at Worship-street, yesterday after- noon, and reported in The Sun. Margaret Lordon, one of the daughters of the de- ceased, 18 years of age, deposed that, in accordance with her mother's directions, she slept on the stairs. She went at 10 o'clock on Monday night with her mo- ther to a raffle, at the Green Dragon, Half Moon-street, Bishopsgate-street. Her father was there, rather in- toxicated, but not so much so but that he knew what he was about. Two of her mother's brothers were also there, and they quarrelled with her father, and one of them, Daniel Crease, threatened to throw him down stairs. Daniel Crease pushed her father, and he fell over the stairs. A man named John Kingstone was at the Green Dragon, but no quarrel took place between him and her father. About one o'clock in the morning, just as she and her mother got home, they were met at the door by Kingstone. Her father returned home about half an hour later, and saw her mother standing with Kingstone at the step of the door. On coming up to them he pushed Kingstone and went up stairs, leaving her mother and Kingstone at the door. Her father threw something out of the window, which she believed struck Kingstone on the face, after which he came down with a poker and struck Kingstone. A struggle took place between them. He then went up stairs, and she saw no more of her father that night. Witness and her mother slept that night on the stairs, being afraid to go to her father's room. Her two brothers, aged 12 and 14, slept with her father. They were called by her mother, who knocked at the door, one at half-past 5, and the other at 6 o'clock, and left to go to their work. After the boys had left, witness and her mother left the house about a quarter to 7 in the morning, followed by her father to Sandy's row, Bishopsgate-street, but she did not hear him speak to either of them. She and her mother walked up Bishopsgate-street until the clock struck seven, when she parted with her mother at Whitegate-street, which was the last time she saw her mother alive. Her father had previously gone in the direction towards home. When she parted with her mother she turned to go home to wash herself. She said she felt wretched and miserable. Mother was per- fectly sober yesterday morning, although she had had a little drink over night. Witness believed her father was jealous of Kingstone, but he made no remark to him when he pushed him aside at the door step on Monday night. Witness on her return home about 10 o'clock with her mother, was sent by Kingstone for a pot of porter, which they drank at the door. By the Jury—When her father struck Kingstone with the poker he throw him down, but was unable to take the poker from him. Her father got up and went up stairs directly. Kingstone left five minutes after, at the request of deceased, to get a policeman to take her father into custody. She did not think her father heard what her mother said. The knife produced by the policeman was identified by the girl as belonging to her father, who used to keep it in his chest after he had finished his day's work when out of employment. He had been out of work some in fa c tli n e t r ler l - a s s t t ro w et o . rked sh a s s a sa l w abo h u im rer on at s th n e nd t a e y a t se im ar e ehou li se er night last put the knife and his ticket in the chest close by the bedstead. By the Jury—Kingston e was an old friend of her father's, and he had frequently brought • him to their house. Mr. Henry Shaw (Shaw and Floyer), of Bishopsgate- ,wh and was stree t Without, deposed that h e was a Lirg called on Monday mo rning to visit the deceas e e o d n found dead. H e found a l arge pool of blood i whom h n heral lap mo ving the her clothes much saturated with blood. On the head aside h e saw t w o la rge wounds on the neck under the right ea r ; one j ust abov e the collar bone in e a k line with it about a n inch and a half long, the other about three inches an d a half lon g , a nd was au oblique wound extending from the an g le of the jaw to near the shoulder. The muscles were exposed by the latter wound. He put his finger into the wounds and found they extended to the vertebra, near the collar bone. A small portion of the vertebra) was chopped or broken, showing great force must have been used in inflicting the wounds. A post mortena examination of the body showed the muscles were completely divided to the vertebra, and the carotid artery half cut through. The point of the knife produced was slightly turned, as if from coming in contact with the bone stated to be chipped. It was just the kind of instrument he should have suspected the wounds were inflicted by ; groat force must have been used. Witness found the lungs, liver, &c., healthy, and ho attributed death to the loss of blood. He thought, from the pof-ibion of the wounds, they were inflicted when her back was towards the party. She could not have sur- vived the injuries two minutes. By the Jury—The small wound was not sufficient to cause death. This being the whole of the evidence, _ to The Deputy-Coroner summed up the evidencet t l e. the jury, remarking that in addition to the husband , s sta ruents there was sufficient evidence to show that the death of the unfortunate woman was caused by her hus- band. Neither drunkenness nor jealousy was a sufficient excuse for the committal of such a crime as this, and it would be for the jury to consider what state of mind the prisoner was in when he committed this act and the na- ture of the offence. He quoted several cases where death had resulted from wounds inflicted in haste re- ducing the crime from murder to manslaughter, pointing out their bearin g on this case. If they were satisfied it was a premediated act they would, of course, return a verdict of murder. The jury, aft er a quarter of an hour's consultation, returned a verdict of ‘ wilf u l murder against Daniel Lordon, the husband, adding th a t h e C ommitted the act through jealousy and drunkennese.

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA, with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the Real Sufferers under this disease, and Correcting of wide-spread Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure. From the German of Dr. PICKFORD. With an Introduction by the Editor, containing a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are credulous enough to seek their aid. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi- cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs as, that ho has addressed himself to the non-medi- cal reader. We trust tilts - may Aot bo the last, if he shall detect tm.l ., °that equally flagrant evil which it may , be is_ his tqweito got: Medical Gazette. The tribe of Quiet Sympathisers,' and 'Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the com- plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of less importance, though' it is that which the quacks most prize—- much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the empirical system of treating Spermatorrheea, and to place the treat, ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore, likely to do much London: li. Balliere, 219, Regent-street.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OP LORDS.—FIIDAY, ?Liza! 2. The Lotto Caestcm.t.oa took his seat epos the woolmek at Eve *Work. PETITION PRESENTED. By Lord Sweatiest, from tea Chamber el Commerce at Leeds, in fame of the Criminal Jamie* BEL DEATH OF THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA. The Earl of CLARENDON—My lards, I feel it my duty to ocumnaicate to your lordships the cuteste of a tele- graphic despatch which I have received, &heathen aa hoar ego, from her Majesty's minister at the Herta It is se follows The Emperor Nicholas died this laming at • tee o'clock, of pelmet:lc apoplexy, after an gnash of hale- I also received from her Majesty's minister at Berlin a despatch, statist/ that the Emperor of Ramie died about twelve o'clock this day. About an hour before this despatch arrived, I received aseounts from Lord John Rumen, at Berlin, stating that the Emperor was at the point of death, and had already taken leave of his family. My lords, I apprehend that although this event occurred so short a time ago as between twelve and one this morning, there cannot be thy doubt as to the authenticity of this information. Under these circumstances, and as this tweapected event must aecessuily exercise such en important and immediate in- fusee upon the war, upcn the negotiations for peace, and possibly upon the policy to be pursued by Freesia, I think that my noble sod learned friend (Lord Lyndhurst) will agree the it might be attended with much inconvenience if he brings forward to-night the motion of which he has given notice. I trust, therefore, that en public grounds he will not object to the request I now take the liberty of making to him, sot at present to press that motion. (Heir.) Lord LYNDHURST—After AO statement of my noble friend it would be impossible that I could proceed this evening. But I beg to state that I shall not withdraw the motion of which I have given notice, but merely postpone it. Unless I find, from the result of the negotiations which are now said to be going on at Berlin, that the Promise mutt otreades .0 the treaty of the tad December, or to some aqui- wheat treaty, es suggested by FfSllOlll and this country, I shall bring the question forward on &future ocgoOort. THE CAVALRY CHARGE AT BALAICLAVA. The Earl of LUCAN entered into some details relating to the circumstances of his recall, adding that he had de- manded a eurt-martial. LUNACY ACT REGULATION AMENDMENT BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. CONSOLIDATED FUND (C 3,300,000) BILL. Is 'sewer to Lord MoNTZAOLI, Earl GRANVILLE raid, as toe correspondence Uterus the Chancellor of the Exch. quer tied the Governor of the Bank of England relating to the iseue of Deficiency Bills was of a private character, it would not be to the advantage of the ;misfit service to produce it. The late Chancellor of the Exchequer would not have the slightest objection to produce these letters, if they were moved for by any one connected with the Beek of England. The whole of the gorrespoodence had been left in the office of the Chancellor of the Exchequer by Mr. Gladstone, in order that his ast- rodome might have the ad aaaaa ge of it. The bill was them read a third time and passed. CONSOLIDATED FUND (£20,000,000) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. COMMON LAW PROCEDURE (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Lord CONGLETON moved ea additional chaise. The LORD CHANCELLOR eonsidered the clause Rase- 'wary. The bi:l was then read a third time and passed. Their lordship* adjourned at ten minutia to six o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAT, MARCH 2. The Sizazza took the choir at the usual hoar. PRIVATE BUSINESS. SECOND READINGS. The following bills were severally read a second time : Bontbsy, Barode, and Central India Railway ; Gateshead Chisys and Improvements; Paisley Burgh ; fn. George's Ilarbiur ; Shrew3bnry Improvement; British and Ameri- can Great Railway Land Company ; Executor and Trutt,* Satiety Bills. PMENIX SOUTH METROPOLITAN, He., GAS COMPANY BILL. On the order for the second reading of this bill, Mr. W. WILLIAMS opposed the stage; and, after a short conversation, the house divided— For the second reading Against BARNSTAPLE ELECTION. Mr. 0. M. BUTT 'spurted, from the committee appointed to inquire into the merits of the late Barnstaple election, that Mr. It. S. Gaieties had been duly elected, and that Mr. Fred. Laurie likal not been duly elected, to serve as a representa- tive of the borough in parliament. NOTICE OF MOTION. THE ARMY IN THE EAST. Mr. LAYARD gave notice that on Monday neat he would inquire whether general, brigade, or divisional orders bad been issued to the army before ilehattopol, desiring that no questions should be answered by the medical men, except by permission of the Commander-ut•Chiel, whereby those gentlemen would be p ted giving any information to the commission which had just been sent out ? Also, whether Dr. Lawson had received an appointment at the hospitals of Smyrna, Scutari, or Rhodes; and, if so, by whose authority ? BREECH•LOADING ARMS. Mr. MAGUIRE asked whether any steps had beef taken to provide the cavalry and artillery with breech- loading arms ? Mr. F. PEEL said that several patterns had been submitted to the Board of Ordnance, and were now being tested by a committee of artillery officers. THE ARMY BEFORE SEBASTOPOL. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE inquired whether there would be say objection on the part of the pun** to lay before the house copies of the ouraped widish tai pared between Lord Raglan and the eldristary at War is nfer- Mel to the wants of our eney is the Cris*? Mr. PEEL—I think then might he an object* to the prediction of detached porticos' el libeiblepelakes. At the proper time the whole of the aereespesdeses will be pro- duced; but I think it should be kit to the geserenaist to Ss that time. (lieu.) I may add that the appileemest of the 'Genuine* renders the partial mind* of the Nem opoadenos in Tuition the lees necusary. Colonel OREVILLE asked the Under BeeeWary flw War whether the salaries of the chaplains atersilingebe army is the East were flied during the put year bps Wowed's* re- gulation at 10s. for the church of England, 7a. Id. he the =lrina, and 6c for the Roman cetholie, be the par- es of their respective duties, and, if as s whether it is the intention of the government to make asp ellsestiea with a view of plating the clergy of each deneodmaties on • footioe a *quality while engaged in this sadness mules ? Mr. PEEL. replied that the rates of pay sodsmod to wars sot those which attached to the chaplaim*, M the arm serving in the East. The clergy of the islalifisi wring with that army as chap's* Win paid at dm rate of 16s. a day, with rations and other elbevramos it= men of the presbyterian church, who are @dig as in some of the regiments, received 1001. a year dui ratios', in addition to the allowance made, by the ledely for the Propagatiu of the Gospel in Foreign Parts; while the Roman catholic chaplain. were paid at the rate of 1601. a year is addition to the rations sad allure's's. The ru- ms of the differesce in the rates at whisk the chaplains of the differeat denominatiou were paid was, be apprehended, the difference in the style of living to which they bad been accustomed. (A laugh.) No such mitantios SI that sag posted by the bon. and gallant eolosel was is con- templation. MILITIA PENSIONS. Colonel NORTH begged to ask the has. Maar Secretary for War, whether those sergeants of regiments of wastes who were now pensioners from the army, sad who had volunteered for foreign .ervieP, would be allowed to *mint that service towards iIIeTIMO of passion? Mr. PEEL *aid that the staff earpeants received 1.. 6d. a day for servile, in the militia, in addition to their sad those who volunteered for service is the lest were en- titled to a bounty of 31, 21. of which was paid down, the ether 11. being paid in necessaries. Thou wise remained is the militia 20 years were entitled to a pension foe that par. *star service of Is. a day in addition to their pension from the regular army ; bat it was not intended that the service of the militia in the Mediterranean should onst, as re- garded the peados. se service in the regular sissy. Colossi NORTH—There is ne chase, of their unites 20 years in the zinnia so as to entitle them to the shilling a day. SURGEONS FOR THE ARMY AND THE ROSH- TALE IN THE EAST.

(Hear, bear.) Lod PALMERSTON—It is true that a telegraphic mew IWO has been received by the government. In fact, we bave received two telegraphic menages—the first from Ber- lin, and the second from the Hewn —stating that the Emperor of Russia died in the course of this forenoon, (Hear, hear.) SANITARY IMPROVEMENT BILLS. In reply to Sir W. CLAY, as to the delay in bringing on these bills. Sir B. HALL replied that the delay had been occasioned by the sereasity fur proceeding with the estimates. He hoped, however, to be able to bring them forward on Friday newt. UNDESCRETARY FOR THE HOME DERT- MEE-NT—ETHE AUSTRALIAN COLONIES, &r. In reply to a aeries of questions put by Sir J. PAILINOTON, Sir G. GREY replica that ao member of that house had yet been appointed to succeed his hoe. friend (Mr. Fiisroy) in the office of Under-Secretary for the Hume Department ; and by law no nth successor could at present be appointed, inasmuch as no more than two under-secretaries could sit in the House of Commons at the same time. Notice had, however, been given to introduce a bill for the purpose of allowing a third under-secretary to sit in the house; sad if that bill should receive the sanction of parliament, a third undersecretary would take his seat. Government did not propose to take say steps in reference to the constitution of the Australian esionies until his noble friend the Secretary for the Osiosiss shosid be silo to give his attention to the duties of hie seer. Ceesideralde atten- , non had, however, been paid to the subject by the govern- ment, and he did not apprehend that any greet delay would take plain is legislating upon it when his noble friend retuned. At prisent, however, he was not sure that they were in possession of the definite decision et the legislative council of South Australia as to their own views upon the matter. No official information had been received in reference to the disturbances in the gold fields 04 which accounts had been published is the newspapers. THE EDUCATION BILL. Lord E. CECIL wished to know what enures the govern- ment intended to take with regard to Lord J. fisseell's Education Bill—whether they ictended to further it ; arid, if so, when it be brought on Sir 0. GREY answered that that bill bad been pcetpoei d for a fortnight, and, at theeuggestion of his noble friend, it wculd be further postpoced until after Easter, when hie noble friend would probably be present. THE NEWSPAPER STAMP AND POSTAGE BILL. In answer to Mr. DRUMMOND, Mr. WILSON said that the bill would come on on Mon- day neat. The motion for the adjournment of the house was then agreed to. TIM ON THE ARMY BEFORE SEBASTOPOL. On the order of the day for the consideration of the report of the committee on the army before Sebastopol, Mr. ROEBUCK rose sad said—l rise to perform what is to me a disagreeable duty, namely, to propose to the house to make the select committee appointed to inquire lido the condition of the army before Sebastopol a secret con• mittee. It is to me a dimmable duty, not because I doubt the wisdom of the cocoa. I propose, but bacon's I think that our motives in taking that course will be =is- conceived and misspprehended. As I find that then is already Each misconception on this point, I will explain what is really meant by a secret committee. According to . . a celebrated formula, ;here were beat° us three eourw We might have made the committee an open one, so that there would have been admitted the public, and alto mem- bers of tbia house. &madly, we might have excluded the public, but not hats ezeinded members of this house; end thirdly, we might have made it entirely a secret committee. The committee were unanimous in their opinion that secrecy was necessary, but s to the mode of obtaining that secrecy thus was a difference of opinion. Tne majority were of opinion that there should be secrecy, but that it would be obtained effectually only by abutting out not only the public but members of this house. Two gen- tlemen of the committee were of opinion that it would be , better to shut out the public and to appeal to members of the house, and, saying that secrecy was n y, ask that no m mber of the house should break in on that secrecy. The majority of the committee thought that would not is a con- venient course, and that it would be best to appeal I. the hoots to make the committee a secret one. But, at the same time, there is no fates- lion on the part of the committee that there shall be entire secrecy with regard to their proceedings; and when the evidence has been given, we propose to make such a selection as we think will serve the public interest, and publish it. Ia making this appeal to the house, I feel that the committee and myself are appealing to the house to have confidence in us. (Hear, hear.) The house has entrusted to us a delicate subject of inquiry, and we wish that the investigation shall be not only complete, but one that will be safe ler the usury at large. (Hear, hear.) \l'e felt that we cannot make that investigation a complete and searching one if we have not the power of keeping our pro- ceedings secret from day to day. If we do not pursue that course from day to day, every part of the investigation will appear in the public papers u propounded, and by that means accusations against individuals will go forth which, although they might be answered some time hence, in justice to thou individuals ought, until they could be answered, to be kept secret. (Hear, hear.) I myself thought that the interests of individuals ought not to be considered if the public interest demanded it. But there is a greater question behind; and in making the re- quest thati am making to the house, I feel this difficulty, namely, that the very reason foe asking what I do of the hones almost precludes my letting the house know that reason, (Hear, hear.) But I mill shadow forth the reason. We are in affiance with • groat power—(hear, hear)—which is giving us every as- sistance in the war we are prosecuting. To maintain that alliance' complete, and to maintain fully the understand- ing between the two nations, is, I mean, the wish of every member of this house. (Hear, hear.) Bat to do this, and at the same time to give to every man brought before us perfect liberty to defend himself spinet any sensation which may be made against hiss, in any manner that he thinks best, would be found impossible. The difficulty that pressed on us aas such, that we bad no other way of meet- ing it than by throwing ourselves on the hour', and asking the house to have oonfidenes in our intentions and our honesty of purpose to make this a reel inquiry ; not to blink any question, but at the suns time to protect the interests of the public. (Hear, hear.) In so doing we felt it to be oar duty to coins to the house ; and I, as the humble spokesman of the committee, throw myself and the COM- mitre* on the consideration of the house. I say that you have delegated to us a difficult and • delicate task. You have had confidence in the committee to which you have entrusted this inquiry. Have farther confidence is as. De- pend oa us to make that inquiry complete, and depend on our discretion for taking what we think the want clone. I find spell unable to 'sprees all I feel with regard to the difficulties of the task, and rocks beset my path on every side. (Great cheering.) Still lam not inclined to question the wisdom of the house is appointing the com- mittee. The good we have done is already manifested, and the geod we shall do hereafter will be fully commensurate to the difficulties we shall have to encounter; and if the house will give us the wenn we ask. I have no doubt we shall be able to fulfil the desire of the house, and make the inquiry complete, and to propound reforms which it is acknowledged are waisted, and which will be greatly for the benefit of the community at large. I believe we shall do this, if the hoses gnat us the power we ask. I therefore beg to move that the select committee for inquiry into the condition of the army before Sebeatopol be a secret committee. A discussion, which extended over some holm, ensued. Mr. Roanoces application was opposed by, amongst others, Lard l33ntoua. Mr. W. Parton, Sir J. Gasman, Mr. S. 111111111 T, and Sir B. HALL. On the other hand, Sir J. PAILINGTOPI Slid Kr. LATAZD insisted that BUM* should be preened. Lord PALMBRSTON—I will shortly state the grounds why lem averse to the motion. When first this motion was announced yesterday my own imprestions.were etreugly against it, bat I wished to hear what reasons might be am- algamd for the MUM it was latended to propose. I have listened with great attention to everything that has paned is the wane of this dim-union, and I em bound to say I have heard nothing which in any degree alters the opinion I at first sight entertained on the matter. No doubt when this °amenities was Int proposed, I frankly stated the objections which have been urged as a ground for making it a ascent committee. I felt it was impossible but that the course of the inquiry would tend to involve us In matters dangerous to the relations so happily subsisting between us and our great ally. The house overruled that great consideration. It was stated that that was an evil that might arise out of the committee. The house, nevertheless, determined that the lbgaby_sheedd be prosecuted. In my own opinion it is net dideallie he tenor the committee with any intrude's'. Then an ewe In which secrecy is desirable. If you have be lay before the committee documents involving I natters which, though of great input's's. he the rpose of the inquiry. eanaot, nevertheins, be wade public with , wt t iseonvessiesee to the sable eirdesore which I wsuld be injuries' to individual. there is than a nano why the untsittee should be a meet seilindttes, and I Hose is also • power is the eennittre to maintain waren. if you an es ban • esentitese pie emmadae assns.

TURKEY. A letter from Constantinople, of the 26th ult., We have received no news from Asia. A courier who has been expected the last three days with despatches has not arrived, and as the roads are perfectly good at this season it is feared that he has been intercepted by the The following is the address delivered by M. Thouvenel in presenting his credentials to the Sultan Sire—l have the honour of presenting to your Ma- jesty the letters of the Emperor of the French, which accredit me to you in quality of Ambassador. I shall respond to the confidence which my august Sovereign has deigned to place in me, if I succeed in drawing still closer the bonds of friendship which unite France to Turkey. The Emperor, Sire, hoped at one time to be able to join in the Crimea that valiant army whose efforts, united to those of the Turkish and English troops, will secure the triumph of the most just of causes. In aban- doning that intention, his Majesty made a painful sacri- fice to other duties. Neither is it without sincere regret, of which I am expressly charged to be the organ, that the Emperor renounced the cordial welcome which your Ma- jesty proposed to give him, and which would have set a personal seal on the sentiments of the two sovereigns. At the moment of commencing my mission, Sire, I ven- ture to make an appeal to the kindness, of which your Majesty has deigned to give me marks before I had the honour of being known to you, and which I shall employ every care to The Presse d' Orient of Constantinople has letters from Kertch of the 22d ult. No news had been received from the Sea of Azoff, bpt five English bomb boats and two advice boats were cruising be- fore Genitchi and the spit of Arabat. On the 18th part of the garrison of the Fort St. Paul made an expedition into the interior of the country as far as Kop-Sarai-Nn, six leagues from the town and one league from Sultanocka, where a small Russian corps is encamped. Notwithstanding the presence of the Cossacks, it effected a razzia of 600 oxen, but the value of them was paid to the inhabitants. The fortifications of St. Paul and Yenikale were termi- nated and armed. A letter from Trebisond, of the 18th ult., an- nounces the arrival there of 500 artillerymen sent

TIT.RKEY. A letter from Con its mtinople of the 10th, in the Courrier de IllarseiMe i , says The great topic' of conversation here continues to be the visit of the E mperor Napoleon to the Cri- mea, and, consequetay, , to this city. The Sultan manifested the greatest • .joy at the prospect of sexing his illustrious ally' ; brit I am forced to confess that at present the Europe an part of the population no longer look on the am %-al of his Majesty as by any means a certainty. Slv auld the visit take place, it will not be, it is belie m ed, for some time to come. Baron Colonel de 134 rifle, aide-de-camp to the Em- peror, is specially eng wed. here, under the direction of General Larehey, to see to all the measures necessary for hastening the form trtion of the French camp, which is about to be fore led at Levend-Chiftlik, about six kilometres (3 Englisl ; miles) from this city, on the road from Bouyukchi. o an l Tnerapia, This camp will be about eight kilorn sixes (five English miles) in cir- cumference, and wil . l be placed on a lofty eminence, running nearly paral' ,r 1 with the Bosphorus. Hospitals will be built at the , r Ltrernity of the encampment for patients, not comire from the Crimea, the hospitals at Constantinople bail g reserved exclusively for these latter. As to th number of troops to be encamped there no one as yet; knows anything about it. Already a number of wood , e n houses have been brought for this new establis' atnent in the St. Louis and the lluguesclin ships of the line., and the Andromaque and the Vengern ice frigates. These vessels, which arrived here on the Pith and 13th, brought out 3,000 men, an 3 mmense quantity of stores and am- munition, and 400 wooden houses. All the Eng. lish and Frenc . - ti ships cf the line at present here or in the Bospho rus have received orders to leave at once for the Crimea ; and this measure tends to confirm ilxo. idea that the navy of the Allied

To Messrs 31oRtsorr, British College of Health, New-road, London GENTLEMEN,—It appear; that a few days ago several noblemen and gentlemen hal as interview with Lord Paumure on the subject of having a homoeopathic hospital at Smyrna, which interview has been the cause of creating war to the knife be•ween the gentlemen of the guinea trade. In the last Saturday, the whole band of homCeopaths are denounced as quacks of the vilest die, &c. This is a pleasant prospect certainly for John Bull. Which is he to believe ? the homoeopathic or allopathic doctors ? Lord Grosvenor is to be ousted from Middlesex, and I don't know what else—so says L'ancet." Now, I appeal to the country wheth rit is not most disgusting to see these doctors continually at war with one another ; and all for what Wby, the guinea trade. These scientific gentle- men, as they style themselves, are all fighting about who shall get the guineas from the pocket of Jolot Hull; but as to caring a rush about the real truth iu medicine, such a thing does not enter their heads ; for surely, otherwise, we should not seethe unseemly articles which they level at one another. lam no friend to homoeopathy, but I hope Lord Grosvenor and the others will assert their right on this question, and thus vindicate the medical liberty of the subject, which is a right inherent in every free-born Eng ishman. and which was so firmly maintained by the immortal James Morison, the Hygeist, whose system will yet triumph over all others! for it is emphatically an universal system, and one which for ever abolishes all poisons in mediciw, and therefore the guinea trade. The public must benefit from this split amongst doctors. Yours, Br.c., A HYGEIST. London, April 9, 1855. •

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO FRANCE'. (From Gall gnani.) The approaching visit of the Queen of England suggests to the .Pays some obser va ti on s alike marked by good taste and j ustice. N o one , i n d ee d, wh o . j hears the manner which the coming of the Royal party of England is spoken of by every c l ass o f per- sons in Paris can entertain the slightest doubt that the reception of her Majesty will be i n eve ry re- spect worthy of so chivalrous a nati on as F rance, and that the enthusiasm of the Parisian population will nobly respond to the acclamations which hailed the presence of the Emperor of the French during his late visit to London. The Pays, in bearing the fullest testimony to the excellent feeling which prevails in Paris on the subject, makes the follow- ing observations : The visit of the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain is the last seal affixed to the alliance of the two nations. In this point of view, it must b e considered as an event, the trace of which will remain in history. The enthusiastic reception which awaits her Britannic Majesty will be, on the part of our fellow. citizens, not on ly an ac t o f courtesy, b u t it will be a political demon s t ra ti on . All th e mar k s o f res pect which the French people will lavish on the august ally of the Emperor will be justly considered as a fresh and striking adhesion given to the policy of the Anglo-French al- liance. In fOting Queen Victoria, we shall celebrate the reconciliation of two great nations that have ex- tinguished in a glorious fraternity of arms the remem- brance of old discords, the seeds of which are for ever destroyed. The just popularity which is attached to the person of Queen Victoria will, besides, be expressed in such a manner as to leave no doubt in her Majesty's mind as to the sentiments which she inspires. France loves and respects the Sovereign who presides with so much wisdom and dignity over the destinies of Eng - land, and who, from her throne, sets an example of every virtue. The cause of the sanguinary quarrels of the middle ages disappeared with feudality, and the war which, at the beginning of the present century ab- sorbed a part of the activity of the first Empire, had its origin in the political situation of the old government, prior to the French revolution. Forty years of uninter- rupted peace between France and England have effaced the last bitterness of the struggle ; a new generation has risen up, which has not imbibed the milk of national hatred. The moment had arrived to repair by the cor- dial association of the two most powerful nations of Europe the mischief which their enmity had caused in the world. This great idea the Emperor Napoleon and Queen Victoria have accmplished. Thanks be to them for it ! Lord Clarendon said the other day in the House of Lords, to characterise the intimate union of the two countries, that there was no longer either a French or an English Cabinet, but a single one, the members of which sat indifferently at one or the other side of the Channel, We can in our turn say that there will be only one people from the day when Queen Victoria shall have made her entry into ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. KIDDERMINSTER. The election for this borough, occasioned by the ap- pointment of Mr. Lowe as Vice-President of the Board of Trade, took place yesterday. There being no oppo- sitioß, Mr. Lowe was declared to be duly elected.

THIS EVENING, and every evening during the week, the GRAND ELEUSINIAN SPECTACLE of MAGIC and MYSTERY, by Professor ANDERSON, the Great Wizard of the North, in 12 acts, with ever-changing variety of incidents, continuous surprises, novel and extraordinary effects. Magic and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos- sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of amusement. It is not a monologue, for the audience them- selves perform their parts with the principal actor, some of them on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, for though everything becomes- metamorphosed before the eyes of the visitors no one can be positive that he sees any one thing; but it is a comedy really performed by tho com- pany ; a melodrama replete with startling positions and unex- pected denouements ; a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of the public every night to appear as auxiliaries ; and an ex- travaganza, in which all that seems to be is entirely beyond the bounds of probability. Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged and fashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum Theatre to overflow, and by means of whose generous aid he has been enabled to announce Magic and Mystery for con- tinuous repetition. He believes that no professor of his art has at any time or in any place been honoured with an amount of success so extensive, so decided, and so unusual. He would attribute that success to three causes; first, that in his present entertainment he bee placed before his visitors the iesults of a life sedulously devoted to the attainment of perfected skill in one peculiar art, and to perfect which he has travelled the globe in every clime ; secondly, that he has spared no trouble nor expense to put this entertainment on the stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment of the first mechanicians and artists of the day ; and thirdly, 'that, while endeavouring to provide amusement for those who honour him with their presence, he has not forgotten that it is possible to afford information also, and that the oppor- tunity should not be neglected of exposing conjuring wher- ever it has been used for nefarious purposes, or whenever by resorting to the conjuror's arts, in an illegitimate manner, the designing have succeeded in making dupes of the credulous. The 937 letters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pro- fessor Anderson has received, from the time of opening the theatre up to the present date, bear witness to the great in- terest taken on the subject of this singular delusion ; whilst many of them bear melancholy evidence to the dangers which ' attend a belief in the superstitious nonsense of the Spiri- Judging simply by the correspondence which has resulted, Professor Anderson's exposé of spirit-rapping and his illustration of the so-called table phenomena, have pro- duced a sensation unequalled by any previous attempt to ex- pose a mischievous and impudent juggle. It is impossible for Professor Anderson to reply at length to a tithe of the communications which reach him on the subject. Ho regrets that many of these should come from ladies and gentlemen who, from their position in society and their well-known in- tellectual attainments, he would least have expected to have been converts to a belief so preposterous in itself, and so easily susceptible of being controverted and disproved. Every evening, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions on spirit-rapping are expressed, and every evening, within Ur , Lyceum, how tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated. It is respectfully requested that this public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode' of replying at full length to his multitudinous correspondents. Ho regrets that the names of the great and learned of the land should have been made to figure in the documents, emanating from the spirit-rappers, as for instance the following, ex- tracted from the Morning Advertiser of Thursday, Septem- ber 20, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri- tual Telegraph. It purports to emanate from an American spirit-rapper, Mr. D. D. Hume Sir David Brewster frankly confesses that ho is sorely puzzled' at what he has witnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be thoroughly nonplussed. Both of these noted men brought the whole force of their keen • discernment to bear upon the solution of the phenomena; but the presence of substantial, actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate- rial objects about the room, proved to be too much of a ques- tion for them to Mr. D. D. Hume, the author of the above, has recently left England, and the following account of whe, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: This young man, who is a Scotchman by birth, and now in Italy, is a remarkable medium for all the manifestations without apparatus. Barnum, who is well-known throughout the Anglo-Saxon world as a splendid humbug, offered him 2,000 dollars per annum if be would perform at his museum in New York. Barnum then took it for granted that mediums could be bought. Ho was somewhat astonished when his offer was refused. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply and honestly remarked, that the money would have been very acceptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 20), an or- phan, and in very bad health : but he would have been afraid of losing his power as a medium, and ho would sooner lose his life. The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. He inquired into the subject.; and now Barnum, one of the greatest humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, is one of the firmest „believers in It is cer- tainly surprising to find such a paragraph as this in the editorial article of an established journal, the editor of whore might be supposed to be sane: Even if Barnum does believe in spirit-rapping-- does spirit-rapping gain or lose 1:1) this accession to its adherents? and, with Barnum's endorse ment to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely to be negotiated ? Professor Anderson would believe not ; but, when he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of England have the temerity to Subscribe their names to so gross a swindle, when he finds that the Incumbent of Wortley (the Rev. N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts his belief in it, and writes a book on the subject,. he considers it to be time for bim to state that which he knows of the mechanism by which it is effected, and the mischief to which it tends. In the s 3,4orning Advertiser of October 3 appears a letter from Sir Dividd'Brewster, relative to that which he saw at Cox's Hotel, ill company with Lord Brougham. He distinctly states that which the Wizard of the North proclaims every night—that spirit-rapping is nothing more than conjuring applied to bad purposes. In the Morning Advertiser of the following day. however, there is an answer to Sir David's letter from one who was present when he and Lord Brougham had their seance with the spirits, in which the writer says, that the table (a large dinner-table, I believe) moved about in the most extraordinary manner, and, among other things, a large ac. cordion was conveyed by an invisible agency to my hand and then to Lord Brougham's, which, hold by his lordship's right band, apart from any person, it played an air through- With such a statement, printed for the edification of the people of the 19th century, with the facts before us that the most talented men of the day are permitting themselves to be deluded by these juggling spirit-mongers—that the greatest novelist of the age is now engaged in making it the subject of a new work, and that a spiritual has actually been advertised to be hold in St. Martin's-hall, Professor Anderson trusts that his exposures of the spiritual- ists of America, as given by him nightly at the Lyceum, will be received by the people of England as genuine honest at- tempts to provide an antidote for the bane of the spiritual jugglers. In the course of the last five weeks 100,017 persons have visited the Lyceum Theatre,—a larger number, it is believed, than has ever before been assembled within its walls in so short a period. Magic and Mystery is repeated every even. ing, the programme being continually changed. Grand fashionable Day Performance, or Saturday, December 15, at 2 o'clock ; the programme being thus arranged ; - Part 1. —Act 1. The Mesmeric Couch : or, the Clinical Capabilities of the Atmosphere : in which the Wizard will do by magic that which some suppose to be effected by mesmer- ism, and illustrate the possibility of sleeping unsupported in the air. Act 2. The Aqua-A.vial Paradox ; exemplifying the power of producing animated nature from fire and water only, and the possibility of eliciting from the simplest elements the most complex forms of ornithological existence. Act 3. Le Livre des Reeueils Choisies : or, Puck's Own Pocket Book, with Puck himself within it. Typifying the evening's entertainment in the production of the very volu- minous from a small volume, in the extraction of magnitude out of minuteness, in developing bulk where no space appears for its existence, in discovering odd things in odd places, and in bringing forth unexpected wonders from the most unlikely place for to be found. Act 4. Magical Locomotion ; or, Transition without 'Trou- ble. In'which will be comprised—the Adventures of a Wed- ding Ring, the Peregrinations of a Bank Note, the Transfor- mation—black into white, and the Discovery of every Article in the position which would seem the most inappropriate. Act 5. L'Ecrin de Verre; or, the Casket of Crcesus. Into which, though made entirely of glass perfectly transparent, and suspended so as to be visible to the eyes of all present, the Wizard will cause the money of his visitors to transport itself, and rain into the casket, though its lid be closed, locked, and the key in the possession of the audience. Act 6. Clairvoyance Extraordinary ; or, the Transparency of Opacity. Act. 7. A Now Bottle of Bacchus ; or, the Novel Wine and Spirit Store. An improvement upon the inexhaustible inasmuch as the Wizard's bottle will not only be in- exhaustible, but will change its contents, ad infinitum, at the word of command, producing soda-water, butter-milk, Epsom salts, Port, Sherry, brandy, gin, rum, whisky, noyeau, or any other wine or spirit required ; and finally proving to be filled with pocket handkerchiefs perfectly d r y, 'and occupying the whole space when tightly packed. Act 8. Half an Hour with the Spirits ; or, an Exposé of Spirit-rapping. Introducing the spirit-rapping table and tocsin of the invisibles. Act. 9. Grand Mystic Amalgam, in which the property of the Wizard's patrons will undergo some strange metamor- phoses, and, amongst others, their handkerchiefs become transformed into the flags of victory—the banners of Elks land, France, Turkey, and Sardinia. Act. 10. The Enchanted Chair of Comus, in which he who seats himself will be nuclei. the magic spell, and app ear to the audience, under circumstances least expected, in a posi- tion as peculiar as perplexing. Act. 11. The Mystery of the Charmed Chest ; or, the Nucleus of the Night's Wonders. To comprehend which the audience will have the goodness to observe, in an earlier part of the evening, the chest suspended (like Mahommed's coffin) in mid-air, into which all things will travel, and out of which all will be produced. Act. 12. The Homological Evaporation; or, the Shettest Route to the Antipodes. Illustrating the easiest mode of ridding ourselves of a troublesome friend, and the advantages of the newly-discovered dia-terrestrial passage from the west- ern to the eastern hemisphere.

On the question that 38,953/. should he granted for the Regium Donum, Mr. WILLIAMS objected to the grant, and thought it was not creditable to the inhabitants of the richest part of Ireland to take a grant of public money for the support of their ministers. Me proposed to reduce the amount to the sum of 3661. Mr. HADFIELD supported the amendment, and con- sidered that they should not encourage such a beggarly sy,tem. Mr. KIRK, as an Irish Presbyterian, could not sit still under the gross imputations that had been cast upon the persuasion to which he belonged. They rested their claim on a positive contract entered into with the Crown, and which had been perpetuated from the year 1672 to the present time. The opposition was raised by the Society for tho Liberation of Religion from State Patronage and Control, but the recipients of this grant had always re• sisted State patronage and control. After a few words from Mr. A. PELLATT, the committee divided— . 32 For the amendment..

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORREICEA, with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the Real Sufferers under this disease, and Correcting of wide-spread Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure. From 'he German of Dr. PICKFORD. With an Introduction by the Editor, containing a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are credulous enough to seek their aid. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi- aal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time. he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi- :al reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any Alter equally flagrant evil which it may be in his , ower to cor- Medical Gazette. The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,' and Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book :cad find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the corn- laint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—- much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat- ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore, likely to do much London: H. Balllere, 219, Regent-street.

WRYALLS' PIANO-FORTE AND MUSIC • REPOSITORY, 28, 11.42111LT0N-STREET, (NEAR WOODSIDE FERRY,) BIRKENHEAD. PIANO-FORTE TUNING. At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this mode of intimating, and submitting for approval, a Scale of Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year. That Piano-fortes be Tuned by . a competent rerson, at regular ' intervals is of importance even in the cas e o f an indifferent in- strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation, or otherwise, of a really good one is involved. _ _ The frequently-expressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have done W. R. the honour to try this system, is the best recommen- dation in its favour. - SCALE OF CHARGES FOR TUNING PIANO-FORTES BY THE YEAR. Grand, Cottage, and Picolos £l 1 0 Two in the same house 1 15 0 SINGLE TUNINGS. Cottage, Picolos, and Squares, each 0 3 6 Ditto and Grande, with Three Strings New Strings are included in the above charges; and each in- strument should be Tuned at regular periods, to ensure its being always in excellent order. The same rates will be charged for Piano-fortes within Twelve Miles of Town, with the addition of expenses. Tunings in the Country carefully attended to on the different journies. Repairing and Regulating by first-class Workmen; charges moderate. Orders addressed 28, lIAMILTON-STREET, BIRKENHEAD, will receive prompt attention.

THE NOVEMBER CIRCULAR OF THE LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN TEA COMPANY. Tun Company': SELECTIONS OF TICS NICWSZASON'S TEA ARE NOW SELLING at Old Postoffice-place, Liverpool. The BEST CONGOUS arrived of this Crop are of the KAISOW kinds, which we directed public attention to last year. The MONINGS, or strong full-bodied Congous, ARE NOT SO FINE as previous imports. The ZONING districts are now largely occupied by the Rebels, and this may account why the FINEST TEAS OF THE SEASON 1854 are now only finding their way through to the coast. We are happy to inform our Customers that WE HAVE SECURED SOME OF THESE. They are REMARKABLY FINE, finer than any we have hitherto sold. Congous are better adapted for consumption in Liverpool, on account of the HARDNESS of the water. But where SOFTER water is attainable, we recommend our SOUCHONOS and OOLONGS, whose MELLOW and EXQUISITE flavour are not properly extracted by hard water. To give our Customers an opportunity of tasting the FINEST of the new Season's Congou, we shall sell it at 4s. per lb. It does not pay us; but it is as much as it is worth. Our FINE OLD MONINGS AND KAISOWS we sell at the SAME PRICE, and they are IMMEASURABLY SUPERIOR. By order of the Company, JOHN L. SMITH. Old Postoilice-place, Church-street, November 14, 1855. N.B.—The Company take great care not to admit into their Stock any Teas mixed with Spurious Leaves.

place, Swonsea, J, Dear Sir,—ln comp lance with your request, 1 took an active part in your annual examination on the tat inst., and now hasten to lay before you its results. In the hearing of several gentlemen present, 1 examined two classes in Mathematical, Physical, and Political Geo- graphy, two classes in English Grammar, one Hass in Definitions of the Sciences, one in Etymological Ques- tions, and one in the Roots of English Words. In conjunction with the her. C. Short, A.M., I examined several of the hoys in Greek and Homan His- tory, part of the Pirst Book of Euclid, English Compo- sition, Mental Arithmetic, and Geometrical Definitions. . . I 'feel gratified in being able to state that the exam- nation proved very smistamory, and bore unequivocal evidences of the industry and perseverance of both the teacher and the pupils during the past wasion. Several of the boys excelled greatly; all passed very praise- worthily. There was one feature in the examination which gave me particular and pleasure—the fact that the examined really ffllder.q.lll what they were professedly iintrueted and questioned in, that it was nut vo much a matter of memory as a matter of romprdicu. lien. Persevere fit 'fiat; present course, and you cannot help suceeeding m giving ample sansfactitm to all par- ties interested therein, and in luny realising all the ends which you professedly propose. Believe me yours very sincerely, f)pch, dig. AI.

PRUSSIA. fr. c We extract the following from a Berlin letter of the 14th inst.:-- We are told here that M. d'Usedom, albeit his mission proved a failure at London, so far suc- ceeded as to persuade persons of eminence there that matters were not sn dark at Berlin as they were represented ; that the Cabinet, and those who rule the Cabinet, were well disposed to the West, and especially to England ; that it was at heart fully with us, and only required modifica- tion of forms, and, above all, an exhibition of con- fidence and cordiality, to express its readiness to acknowledge the December treaty, or something Now, all that can be said is, that if there be any persons of political eminence in London who place faith in affirmations that this Cabinet is sincerely disposed to go hand-in-hand with the W es t, or t h at i t would not avail itself of its readmission into the conferences for other than obstructive and Russian partisan purposes, then their faith must have completely nullified • their reason, oblit er ated their memories, and blinded them to facts which stare all men here broadly in the face. There cannot be a more honest man in his Pm- ssecl sian Majesty's dominions, or one po sse lities better fittin g him for the mission 0111,,., was sent, than M. d'Usedom.

LAMPS AND CHANDELIERS. FL. HAUSBURG, 24, CHURCH-STREET. • F. L. H., with the view ol curtailing some of the Branches of his Business, has decided upon disposing of his Stock of CHANDELIERS FOR GAS, OIL, &c., and begs to inform his Friends and the Public, that the Stock has not only been completely reassorted, but the whole of the prices have been very considerably reduced, thereby offering every pos- sible inducement to give him the preference in selection. Articles of the best manufacture have been marked at prices so low, that those of the most inferior description could not be purchased at the same rate, even by wholesale. F. L. H. would refer to the following, namely:— _ __ Three-light Gas Chandelier, to slide, without fittings los. Three-light Ditto, with Globes, B urners , Length- } £2 55. cuing Rod, Socket, and Ball, fixed c om pl e t e Very pretty Chandeliers, for Drawing-rooms, fitted with £3 Os. Glass Drops A full and complete Stock of METAL and GLASS CHANDE- LIERS. LAMPS, for the Hall, Vestibule, &c., BRACKETS, GAS PILLARS, and STAIRCASE LIGHTS, comprising every novelty of design and style. . Every description of Gas Fittings made to order, and Lamps, Chandeliers, &c., Rebronzed and Relacquered, by first-rate work- men, upon the premises. AUREOLE LAMPS. The arrivals for the Season have just been received, combining every variety, from the Plainest to the most Ornamental, and all at the most moderate prices, namely : Complete, with the best mechanism and all the latest improve- ments, with Globe, Chimney, and Cottons, At 155., 18s. 6d., 255., 285., to .£25 each. Every description of LAMPS, FOR OIL AND CANDLES, FOR SHIP USE AND DOMESTIC PURPOSES. A large Stock of PURE COLZA OIL, IMPORTED DIRECT FROM THE CONTINENT, kept entirely for the accommodation of F. L. H.'s customers, as pure, unadulterated Oil cannot be obtained in the English market. The Aureole Lamp having entirely superseded the Solar Lamp in England, F. L. H. offers his remaining Stock of SOLAR LAMPS to Exporters to the Colonies, &c., where the coarser descriptions of Oil only can be obtained. The Lamps will be offered IN LOTS, FOR SHIPMENT, CONSIDERABLY BELOW THE ACTUAL COST, and all the Fittings which may be required, at Wholesale Cost Prices. _ _ _ - - F. L. H. takes the opportunity of stating, that those Persons who may hitherto have been deterred from visiting his Establish- ment, by its great extent and the valuable Collection of Goods, are not aware that, by overcoming this impression (in reality a prejudice), the result would be most advantageous to them, as they would find that they could purchase Articles of a better qua- lity, and at Lower Prices, than at any other Establishment. He considers it almost superfluous to add, that, whether they make purchases or otherwise, they will, in every case, be received with politeness and attention. F. L.

CO3LIIERCIAL and MONETARY NEWS. 4. MONDAY NIGHT. Iv the value of the Public Funds be taken as a test of the state of public feeling on monetary affairs, the week has been characterised by quietude, for the fluctuations have been but slight, and prices have, on the whole, been fairly maintained. This quietude may be partly attributed to the uncertainty which continues to prevail as to the turn which affairs are likely to take, so that most persons are deterred from speculating, either for a rise or for a fall in prices, and something may also be attributed to the contradictory influences which prevail. On the one hand, the speech of the Premier at the Lord Mayor's banquet led to the inference of a continuance of the war ; and the present high prices of foreign and colonial produce will, no doubt, stimulate increased importation, and thereby lead to a demand for money. On the other hand, advices have been received of more than a million sterling in gold being daily expected from Australia, which, in the absence of further , demands from the continent, may tend to lighten the pressure upon the Bank of England resources, and relieve the Money-market. The accounts from Australia are also favourable as to the further supplies of gold, and, as in a short time we may anticipate a return through the ordinary trade channels of the large quantities of specie which have been lately sent abroad for the pur- poses of the war, it is not surprising that considerable doubt should exist as to the state of monetary resources for a little time to come. We have recently commented at some length on the injurious influence upon mercantile interests of the Bank Charter Act, which has been not inaptly compared to a man being compelled to wear a suit of clothes which were made for him when a boy. Were it not for this, there would be nothing in the state of commercial affairs, or even in the requirements for the purposes of the war, to excite any feeling of appre- hension ; but so long as the operations of the mercan- tile community are fettered by restrictions which were only meant to apply to a very different state of affairs, there exists a grievance which demands the serious attention of the legislature. On Wednesday last, the Governors of the Bank of England had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in Downing-street, and it is rumoured that the object of the conference was to authorise the Bank of England to increase their issue on securities beyond the present limit of fourteen millions. By the act of 1844, the government is empowered to authorise the extension of the issue to two-thirds of the amount of the issue of other banks, which may have been withdrawn from circulation either by failure or the substitution of Bank ot England notes. This amounts to about £700,000, so that the increase will come to something under half-a-million, a sum far too little to have any sensible effect. The Bank returns, published on Friday last, present but few changes of importance. There is a decrease in the stock of bullion to the amount of £65,196, but as there is also a decrease in the circulation to the extent of £333,765, the reserve of notes unemployed has increased £238,740, so that the total is £4,883,205; a margin which, in the face of expected receipts of gold, might be considered ample for purposes of ac- commodation, without imposing such heavy rates of discount. The Bank directors may, however, have over-reached themselves, for the returns show a de- crease in private deposits and private securities of upwards of a million, from which the evident inference may be drawn that discounts are found easier else- where than at the Bank of England. In the considera- tion of this subject it must always be rememberedthat the stock of bullion in the Bank is by no means a safe criterion of the position of monetary affairs. An excess is sometimes caused by a dulness of trade, and a de- ficiency by increased activity, as well as by demands for exportation.; while the latter may be influenced by a fluctuation in the state of exchanges, which may be merely of a temporary character ; and, at the same time, it must not be forgotten that steam navigation offers facilities for the transmission of specie which were not possessed during the last war, and which must materially influence the fluctuations in bullion, as far as our foreign trade is concerned, as the cost of transmission constitutes an important element in the question. The arrivals of specie during the week are estimated to amount to about £300,000, and it is computed that the exports are fully equal to that amount.

S omething cll may be oingthe improved cir- ms tances of the farmers, w who t ae no longer driven by necessity to sell, and can better afford to keep wheat in ricks than speculators can afford to pay warehouse rent.

LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBBR 22. Tas egret of the Money Market ham at length become so serious as to give rise to general anxiety. Were the cossegnences of the pressure confined to the total extinction of all speculative tendencies, they would be comparatively easy to be borne, even in a great commercial community like ours, where many of the operation; are neesesarily prompted by sp.- Gelation. But the results extend farther : all branches of trade, even the very soundest, are being affected by the dearness of money, and by the difficulty of obtaining accommodation sport mercantile bills having anycoosiderable period to ran. There is no disguising the fact, that we are in the midst of a monetary pressuniof greater intensity than has boon witnessed since the disastrous autumn of 1847; and it is beyond a doubt that, unless some amelioration be shortly experienced, the commerce of the country will be considerably restricted, and the national profits, so important to the enoesadal prosecution of the great contest in which we are engaged, will be sensibly curtailed. Within the brief period of six weeks—the Bask having raised Its rate of discount to 4 per cent. so recently as the 6th September—we have witnessed a rise in the value of money front Si to 8 and even 7 per cent. During this remarkably rapid movement, whilst the market was in its transi- tion stage, we judged it beet to do oar utmost to Local- este the necessity of groat caution. With this view we have almost daily, even at the risk of reiteration and misconstruction, enumerated the various adverse elements affecting the market; and this we have done the more emphatically because hi other quarters pertinacious attempts have been made to explain away the cause' of anxiety, and to lull the public mind into false, and therefore &aprons, security. Experience has shown that the period of transition, when a sudden contraction of trading and specula- tive engagements is neceesitated, is usually one of great danger; and thus the community may congra- tulate themselves on having passed through so cri- tical a phase without sensible embarrassment. That our cautions view was well founded is fully proved by the result. To inlet upon caution now would be super- flume, tbeexisting ratted money being amply enficient to enforce extreme circumspection in every branch of trade. A great step has thus been gained towards pre- venting aggravation of the present premiere, and esta- blishing a foundation for future recovery. Instead of launching out into fresh operations, merchants throughout the kingdom are now engaged in rigidly restricting them. Regrettable as is this contraction of trade, it will tend to render accommodation more eery of attainment. Under present circumstances the proems is necessary, although painful. Fortified by the stronger basis now secured, and by the continucd extraordinary firmness of commercial credit, we are enabled to face with increased confidence the adverse influences which threaten the stability of our mone- tary position. These dangers, unfortunately, ere sufficiently grave. The war and the food question form two serious elements of disturbance, which are further aggra- vated by the critical position of monetary affairs in France. To the requirements of the war we have repeatedly called attention. They will aoudads be heavy, and will oared= large withdrawals of eoio. Besides, no inconsiderable proportion of the sum will never yield say direst esters. The war expendi- ture, though unavoidable, is not reproductive. Never- theless, we are perfectly satisfied that, were our position is other respects satisfactory, the bge- dens of the war would not constitute any serious brill to the vest resources of this rich country, swelled by the accumulations of a forty years' peace. Reverting to the food question, we see cause for further anxiety. V truth can be most nearly attained by Weing the balance of opinion, we shell be led to this einsississ that this year's harvest in Great Brits% her been Duke of Cambridge, and Hie the somewhat below the average, and that,ocessquently, R oyal Highness Bate.
