The report that Charles Albert was proclaimed King of Italy, which I mentioned in my letters of yesterday, is repeated in the present detailed commu nications, but not in a form to give it full authen ticity. It is said that an expectation wee entertained that such a measure would receive the meant of the great powers of Europe, as being the only means of preventing the proclamation of a republic. Advice, from Venice have been received to the 20th. That city had also risen against the Austrians. The tricoloured flag floated on the towers of St. Mare.l The governor, alarmed at the determination of the people in delivering the political prisoners, issued a proclamation, in which he pledged himself to with draw the troops from the city and to leave it in the hands of the national guard. The Venetians imme diately mounted the tri-coloured cockade and de manded arms at the municipality. This was the the situation of things when the last accounts left. Little faith, however, was placed in the promises of the governor, and a conflict was considered to be imminent. The news we announced yesterday of the success- ful insurrection at Parma is fully confirmed, and it is added that on the afternoon of the same day a simi lar revolution took place at Piacenza. The Duke of Parma and Piacenza has taken refuge at Tarin,where he inhabits a villa in the neighbourhood. A report prevailed that Parma and Placenzia had already pro claimed Charles Albert their sovereign. A letter from Piacenza of the 21st says : We ire do livered from our petty tyrants. After a conflict of about three hours the pe o ple have been victorious. A Hungarian colonel and some officers have been killed. The tricoloured flag floats over the city. The duke sought to fly, but be was arrested. A provisional government is formed. The Jesuit' were driven away by the people yes terday eveeing. The fort of Pissighltoes has Won into the bands of the people, 30,000 of whom have marched to Milan. From the ATha de Florence of March 22 we learn that the Grand Duke of 'Tuscany had announced the departure for the frontier of two columns of troops, the one by Pietra Santa, the other by San Marcello. At Venice and Padua the civic guard has been organised. We have letters from Rome , of the 18th, which in form us that the French revolution had created a great sensation in Rome, but rather of curiosity than of imitation. There is no doubt the Pontifical govern ment will recognise the French republic. The pre sent ministry is composed of two cardinals, a prelate, and five laymen. The Roman Bank had been besieged doting several days by thousands of persons, the holders of its notes, among whom a panic had taken possession. To stop this run, tea of the richest people of the state had en gaged to pay daily into the bank 5,000 piastres. The bankers also have come forward.

The Threes fluctuated between 41 and 1 : 2. A rumour was in circulation during the day, both in the city and at the Bourse, that a plot had been detected for the arrest of MM. de Lamartine, Gamier Pages, arid another member of the cabinet, by M. Ledru Rollin and his party. This, however, gained little credit, The Provisional Government has received a tele. graphic despatch from Marseilles, announcing that General Cavaignac refuses to accept the poet of I Minister at War. The office has been offered, conga gauntly, by telegraph, to General Changarnier. At present, therefore, the war department is, in fact, stagnant, for M. Arago, who is nominally , interim Minister of War, declines the responsibility of reports or ordinances. The attacks which have been made on the Pro visional Gore liment by La Presse and other journals, are thus replied to by the National, this morning; The government is warmly attacked, and is even mesiesed with resistance. Why so? Because in the organisatkm of the new order of things, it would sot consent to run after Utopian and chimerical schemes. But at least, did itdo what it could do ? Has it shown itself equal to or inferior to the circumstances. First of all, what ought to have bees its rule of conduct. To take a sure view of realities and principle", to constantly measure the boldness of the innova tions that were to be effected with what was possible, not to stake the fate of general irtereste oaths throw of a hazardous ' abstraction, not to add to the unknown of a situation so novel for Franc ,by the unknown of systems. And that is precisely what it did. Now what was its work ? Here the difficulties were immense. A whole revolution was to be founded; exaggerated impatience' to be kept in ; ap prehensions of a thousand kinds to be calmed ; it nad to get the power of fact, and the moral authority of the new principle accepted by those whom the republic scarcely satisfied, as well as by those whom it bad taken by surprise ; to resolve the foreign question in such a manner as that it should not complicate the domestic one, and that the other European nations should behold in our revolution, not a menace to their nationality, but an assistance to their liberty; to prevent the universal bankruptcy which the ex-royalty had so well prepared by de ficits and jobbing; to re-establish and reform the machinery of the public departments in disarray ; in fine, to convoke a national assembly on the largest bases of election ever made. Politics, finance, and administration, properly so cane d, were the three points to which the activity of the government was to be simultaneously applied. We shall not speak of the first sittings at the Hotel de Vile. And yet it is not sufficiently known how courageous, active, patient, and able was that suddenly assumed dictatership of the members of the govern ment. A thousand necessities came each instant to knock at the door of the council, and each of them carried away its decree. It was necessary to improvise like the circumstances themselves. Since then, everything has been regularised. But let us examine how the government has accomplished the mission which circumstances imposed on it. First of all, the proclamation of the republic. Immsdiately after, the great act of the abolition of the pain of death in political matters, which, replying victoriously to old prejudices springing from ill-interpreted rem nieceneee, made the inauguration of the repel: ic the in auguration of an era of governmental clemency. In succors- pion, the confirmation of the historical rights of the tri coloured flea ; the re-organisation of the national guards that I had been dissolved t the nomination of the committee of government for the working-classes; the manifesto to Europe, ' the generous code of the duties which our young republic im poses on itself with respect to other nations, a ventablo treaty of alliance between our revolution and all oppressed rights, all proscribed principle, all the revolutions already accom plished or to be accomplished, and which Vienna, Berlin, and Lombardy have already responded to; in fine, the decree relative to the election:, &c. In financial matters, whatever may be said to the contrary, the efforts of the government have not been les. intelligent nor less active. The opening of national workshops for unemployed workmen; the decree . relative to the Monts-de-Piste ; the creation of discount-banks ' at Paris, and in the departments, destined to extend the bene fits of credit to the small traders ; the decrees respecting the Bank of France ' • the imposition of 45 per cent. additional ; the bone du tresor ; the application of sixty millions to the comptoirs ; the establishment of general magazinee, tie ob. ject of winch is to obtain value for goods which the crisis does not permit to ; all these measures, and others which I we omit, sufficiently bear testimony to the solicitude of the government for public and private credit. But, it is asked, why proceed slowly, measure by measure? Why not employ at the very beginnings remedy, violent, radical, and calcu lated to change the situation in everything? First of all, because it is net shown that the remedy proposed would prove, as is asserted, a remedy. Besides, a whole nation Icannot be the object of one of these experiments that ore tried in anima vt/i. Prudence commands not to apply to each circumstance but the measure called fur by that cumatance. New events, it is true, may render thatmeasure insufficient, but also they might not occur, sad then there would Dave been folly to rush into the chances of a conduct more energetic in appearance, and which experience was to prove to be just as sterile. An arm against the financial po sition of the government is also found in the fall in the pub lic funds; and in comparing that fall with that which took place in 1830, and, which was certainly less, an act of im peachment is almost made out against the Republic itself. But since when is the Bourse to be taken as the criterion of political affairs ? The Boone is subject to mistakes sometimes, and very seriously in such matters. It is not to it that we should go to demand enlightenment as to the importance of events, or the value of governmenks. In 1815, at the Bourne, were not the shameful figures of treason sees quoting our disasters with a rise ? But let us omit that consideration ; th- com parison instituted between 1830 and 1843 sins in every point. In fact the financial situation bequeathed by the ree , .. stion to the revolution of 1830 cannot be assimilated to t los be queathed to the revolution of February. Besides, the revo lution of 1830 was not followed by revolutions at Vienna, Berlin, and Lombardy, and consequently by a general pertur bation in European credit. We may add, that the substitu tion of a republic for a isionarebr Produces in • nation • greater perturbation than the simpfs substitution of one mo nanny for another, whatever difference there may be between PUNCH (No. 331) for t taloa EIGHTEEN ILI The Pcrscrution of Itritisai rout men. lir Mr. Jrasuc, Thu English Season.

NERCAnLZ, March 28.-A good deal of rain has again fallen since Saturday, and, the season getting . late, our farmers seem anxious for a favourable change, in order to proceed with seeding operations. To-day there seems tome prospect of the weather taking up, but it will take fully eight or ten days of continuous fine weather before the farmers can proceed with sowing on the heavy lands. At our market this morning we had a large show of Wheat from the growers, aril the condition being very indifferent, added to liberal arrivals from abroad, and less cheering accounts from Idark-Ltne, threw much flatness over the trade, and sales could only be promoted by submitting to a reduction of le. per qr. upon Saturday's rates. For the general run of south country red Wheat, 535. per qr., 631b5., could not be exceeded ; the best foreign, however, seemed to be held with much firmness, at 645., but the offers made being generally below that figure, holders declined selling. Fer - Flour we experienced a slow inquiry, and but little progress could be made towards a clearance, although a re duction of fully le. p-r sack would have been willingly con ceded, had the dealer. been disposed to purchase at that decline. In Rye little stirring. Malting Barley in fair request, extra Chev.lier being saleable at 345. per qr., weighing 54Ibe. per bushel and upwards ; other sorts meet ing but a moderate share of attention. Fine ressolvinade malt is wanted, and every thing choice would readily com mand 50e. per qr. Beans and boiling Peas nominaily un altered. Oats without change. • SPALDING, March 28.-At this day's market our supply of samples from the farmers were tolerably good; some bold at Is. less money for the best rune, and 2s. for inferior; but little business done at the decline, farmers being unwilling to submit to the present low prices.

THE REVOLUTION IN LOMBARD Y. PARIS, WEDNESDAY, 11 A.M. AU continues tranquil. No domestic news of im portance has transpired since my last. The news from Italy, which I have communicated already, en grosses all minds, to the exclusion of domestic topics. It is rumoured in Paris that a French army is about to be formed on the Rhine, and that 40,000 of the troops in Algeria will be recalled to form part of it. Another army of 30,000 is to be formed at Dijon. The news which I have transmitted to you in detached fragments, two or three times a-day, by telegraph and otherwise, for the last few days, was selected from confused masses of conflicting reports, arriving by various channels from Milan and other parts of Lombardy, all regular communication having ken suspended by the conflict which was raging in the capital of that kingdom. lam able now to con firm, in its minutest details, all the intelligence I have sent you during the last three days. A private letter addressed from Milan to Novara, dated the 23rd, at noon, says, " Our holy cause has triumphed ; the God of armies has favoured our enterprise. Milan is at length delivered from its oppressors, 3,000 of whom remain prisoners in our hands ; the sword of Radebky is among our trophies. The cannonade from the fortress was sus tained till four o'clock this morning, when unexpect edly the Austiians made a sortie. As they issued forth, our brave tirailleura made a horrible massacre of these Germans. The dragoons, who formerly in flicted such havoc on our people its the streets, are our prisoners. In the castle, which is in our hands, we tound there the correspondence of Radetsky, which throws a curious light upon the late transactions. The castle is filled with wounded. Bolza and Torre cani, the late Minister of Police, are among our pri soners. The former attempted to escape with false passports. " All Lombardy is up in arms—' Long live the brave Milanese !' According to other accounts, which have claims to accuracy and authenticity, the Austrians have left 1, 00 0 dead and 4,000 prisoners to Milan ; while on the side of the people not more than 100 are kiLled. The family of General ltudetzky were seized in the city, and detained as hostagc a. The conduct of the Archbishop of Milan throughout the struggle is mentiow.d in terms of the highest ad miration. That prelate, from the commencement to the end of the col.fliet, shared all the dangers of the populace. His reverend figure was conspicuous, attired in his pontifical robes, above the barricades, having the crucifix in one hand, and waving a tri coloured flag in the other. It is said that the Austrians will attempt to con centrate themselves on the lines of the Urincio and the Adige, and will endeavour to defend those im portant military poeitior.s. It was, however, reported at Milan that the line of the Urincio had been already carried by the inhabitants. The almost impregnable fortress of Mantua had been seized by the people during the insurrection in that place, favoured by the defection of about a third of the garrison, whic'h consisted of Italian troops. The Piedmontese journal, Concordia, publishes the following letter of Signor Borromeo, a Milanese noble, and member of the Provisional Government: MILAN, MAItCII 22.—After having bees blockaded until Saturday in this city, covered with barricades, and defended by a pspula:ion • f hon., I am at length able to write to yeu and give you news. In use quarter we have teen 1,200 in habitants resist 16,000 Auatrians, and render them impotent. At this moment we have succeeded in rendering ourselves masters of ts." , Rees of the city. Oar communications with the surrounding country are consequently established, and we shall now, perhaps, be able to destroy .the Austrians. Our independence is proclaimed. we have a great number of prisoners ; my house is full. Among them there is the wife of Torrecani, to whom I have an asylum to save her. _ihaee also id my house the tires commissaries of police,Siccard, Galombere, and Bolas, *Om I have matched from the wrath of the people.

[THREEPENCE. known to Bonus and to the state that all I could do I have done, and that the whole of the sacred college acceded to it willingly and unanimously. If that does not satisfy some men who are guided by caprice more than by reason, I be lieve the people, generally speaking, will be content. Ire peat that I did all I could, and could do nothing( more. I desire that my ssntiments may be known to all, in order that calm may be re-established, and that none of those acts which in sonic places have disturbed public tranquility, may be repeated. Liberty cannot be separated from order— order creates happiness, and from order flows unity, which is so neweary for all to enjoy liberty tranquily, and receive the fruit of the seed which has been sown on the poli tical soil. Order is blessed by God and man, and leads to what all desire—justice and joy in families. The Turin papers announce a counter-revolution in Calabria, under the orders of Baron Compegno, a rela , don of Del Carretto. them. These are facts, it appears to us, which constitute situations exceedingly dissimilar, and consequently not ad milting my comparison. It is seen what all this display of figures, in support of a partial opinion, signifies. The proof is not worth more than the opinion. But this is not all. Whilst the government thus provided for the great po litical and financial necessities of the moment, each of its members gave a new activity to his own administration. All this should be allowed for, and we believe it to be the duty of a good citizen, in such difficult circumstances, to aid the government in place of impeding it ;to call for co-ope ration for it, and not resistance ; and if we desire to see it do still more, we ought not lees to feel grateful for what it has already done. All its acts besides are inspired by a profound democratical sentiment, and in our eyes that general ten dency welt redeem some faults of detail. The definitive or-' . ganization of the republic, the realization of the principle of fraternity and joint responsibility, a realization which alone can lead to the conciliation of interests hitherto placed is conditions of antagonism—such has been its object, this is what constitutes its strength. The ifoniteur du Soir gives the following from the frontiers of Poland 30,000 Russians are con centrated on the frontier of Gallicia, some leagues from Cracow; 50,000 men occupy Russian Poland. Warsaw has a garrison of 20,000 men. The Russian guard is already in great part on its way for the frontier of the duchy of Posen; reserves have been called from the interior, and the corps stationed on the side of Odessa, and towards Turkey, have received orders to send 15,000 men towards Gal- I licia. To this news we may. add that the army of I I the Caucasus is also going to be diminished, and that it has received orders to remain altogether on the defensive. Schamyl has organised a post ofhce service with Constantinople, in order to know what passes in Europe ; his object is to assume the offensive as soon as hostilities shell have commence , / in Poland. It must not be forgotten that front6o,ooo to 80,000 Poles are in the Caucasus. PARIS, Mears 29.

Stocks were offered at all prices, and in tome minutes the Five per Cents. had fallen 2.60, to 57.50, and the Threes, 2.60, to 38. However, this fall, which recommenced so decidedly, and which appeared to be the result of panic, at last ceased, and prices rose to 60 and 40 respectively. A great number of those who have sold lately have kept their money to re-invest on the first favourable opportunity. Present low prices may tempt some who, haring sold at 70 to 76, may now repurchase at 57 to 58. As in all the projects with reference to the railways which have been put fiorth, it has been proposed to give the shore helders 5 per cent. stock for their shares, the Fires were more offered than the Threes. It was said also, at the com mencement of the Bourse, that it was intended not only to extend this to the railways, but abio to the canals and mines, and assurance companies. But reports quite to the contrary soon restored prices. It was said that the govern ment had renounced for the present their project as to the railways, and had resolved to defer it to be settled by the nation - al assembly. It is certain that the purchases which were made during the last halt-hour of the Bourse, were made by the leading stockbrokers, and that many orders to buy could not be executed before the closing. There was not, in fact, more than one franc rise on the price of yesterday in the Fives or Threes, but they have in substance recovered 3.50 on the lowest quota tion of yesterday. Orleans Railway were twice done at par, bat recovered to 570 when the shareholders found there was some hope that they could not be taken from them. It was on this line more than any other that the government pro ject produced kar , , because it was supposed it would he pur 'hated by v luation, which would have been an unfavorable mode for the shareholders. The rise was less sensible on the lines not paid up, which were more in demand, because it was thought thaforhatever might be the project of the government, it could not be more disadvantageous teen the continuation of their contract., and at present prices they might s.ifely invest. The St. Germans have declared a dividend of 27.50, payable in cheques at 4 per cent., bet without any fixed time for their payment. Les Quasre Canaan fell 2.s—price 775. The holders of B.istian stocks and Bank shares were very uneasy as to their half-yearly dividends. The Bel =auk had declared a dividend of 131.,. payable at . It is usually accompanied with a notice that tb-y maybe received at some bank in Paris I no such notice is now given, and the bankers usually employed in Paris say they have received no orders. Piedmont stocks have fallen 10 francs from the news received from Lombardy. A large meeting of the creditors of Charles Lafitte, Blount, and Co., took place yesterday. The failure, it seems, to di place in consequence of the number of cheques (bons) of the Paris and Rouen and Rouen and Havre railways which the house of Lafitte and Co. had endorsed; these cheques could not be negociated, on account of the crisis. The meets exceed the liabilities vasiderably, and all the creditors may be paid in full if they will grant time. It was decided that all creditors under five hundred francs should be im mediately paid, and that, during the settlement of the affairs, M. Lafitte, Blount, and Co., should be autho rized to continue the business of the bank. A council of superintendence was named, consisting of M. M. Denis, Benoist, Guerrero, and Colley de St. Paul. The premium en gold was quoted as yesterday, at 80, and on charge of Bank Bills of 1,000 francs, from 16 to 20 francs. REPORTED ATTEMPT OF THE FRENCH TO REVOLUTIONISE BADEN AND WURTEMBURO. ' • The following private letter, received this morn ing, from Ravensburg, in Wurtemburg, has been obligingly forwarded to us. It is scarcely possible ' that a report of proceedings of the character referred to —the movements of 30,000 men and the burning of Offenburg—should first reach London by so circuitous a route. Our readers must, therefore, judge for themselves, how much of the information is fact, and how much mere flying rumours. All we can do is to bear testimony to the perfect good }kith and good character of the writer : RAVENSBURG, MARCH 26. We last night received intelligence that thirty thousand Frenchmen had crossed the Rhine, burnt Oifenburg, and were advancing rapidly towards Stockaeh, the point where .11 alte great lowly at Germany meet. The news struck this population like lightning. They immediately forgot their differences, and formed into bodies of volunteers. The partial deficiencies of muskets is supplied by means of scythes ; and Catholics end protestants are all arming, and exercising with great ardour. To-morrow, one-tenth of the pope ' lotion will, if necessary, leave their homes and march against the invaders. This province, re cently acquired, has always been ill-affec.ed to Wurtem burg, and, so late as lost autumn, the Catholic inhabitantr, sympathising with the Sonderbund, were in continued conflict with the Protestants. Their discord has vanished a* if by enchantment. " Hurrah for old Germany" is the cry of every one. I speak to you of what I see, and from this you may infer what is the spirit of Germany at present. If, as I trust, the French are repelled, this atrocious invasion will produce a great deal of good, by cementing more and snore the new order of things. We hear that the in vaders are for the most part a rabble of desperate workmen, but well armed and well commanded. They exp. tied to find here a great number of gulls, easily deceived by the proclamation of the repablic. But I hope they will find they were mistaken, as the Swiss corps francs were, and as lawless invaders generally are. lam this very moment told that, ou arriving at Wulfach, in the Valley of the Kim*, they wens repelled by the landstuem of the peasantry. LATEST FROM LOMBARDY. INSURRECTION IN TRENT AND THE TYROL, The Piedmontese journals have not arrived, but it is confirmed that the King of Sardinia has taken the title of King of Sardinia and Lombardy, and had marched to Milan at the head of his army. The Vice roy of Lombardy, with his family, was at Verona. One of his sons, the Archduke Sigismund, was ar rested at Bergamo. Some 6,000 Austrians were quartered at Marig nano. The people of Milan destroyed the bridge, to cut off the communications of the enemy. it was an nounced, by letters from Milan, dated two in the afternoon of the 24th, that Trent and the entire Tyrol had risen. The insurrection was successful also at Lodi and Cremona. The Austrians were driven from Pavia, Brescia, and Desruzane. The fortress of Pizzi Ghettone, nith seventeen guns, was taken by the Milane%e. The duchies of Parma and Modena had declared their annexation to Piedmont and Lombardy. The report of the flight of the Duke of Modena was incorrect. That prince was imprisoned. Letters from Rome, of the 21st, say that, on the arrival of the news from Milan, the Austrian ensigns were torn from the embassy, and the ambassador took flight. The last bulletin received from Milan terminates with the words " Long live Charles Albert, King of Italy." The foreign consuls residing in that city bad collectively protested, during the conflict, against the bombardment, till the subjects of their respective countries had retired. The bombardment commenced on the 22nd, but with little effect. The number of killed en the part of the Austrians exceeds 2,000; the loss of the people is considerably smaller, owing to their having fired only when sore of 'their mark, while the platoon-fire of the troops was almost neutralised by the barricades. Marshal ltadetzky, lit is said, has been arrested at last, disguised as a priest. It is asserted that the Austrian troops pil laged several houses. The Brera quarter has sufkred most. A number of proclamations have been issued by the provisional government of Milan, directing the people to preserve their barricades, and to enrol themselves regularly, providing for bread, meat, and other neces- ! series, also for the defence of the public establish- I 'molts, and other exigencies of the circumstance.. Scarcely had the news from Milan become known at Florence,than theOrandDuke immediately issued a pro dalmatian, dated the 21st, in whicb, after announcing that the hour of the complete regeneration of Italy had arrived, he calls upon his subjects to take up arms in defence of the common cause, and states that the necessary orders bad been given for the imme diate departure of all the regular troops, in two columns, one for Pietrasanta, another for San Mar cello ; the former under the orders of the general in chief of the regular troops, the other under those of Colonel Laugier. The proximate conclusion of a general Italian league is also announced in the same proclamation. On the 17th a deputation, headed by Prince Corsini, waited upon the Pope to thank him for having granted a constitution. Ills Holiness replied: The demonstrations which I yesterday saw made by the good people of Rome, and whi:th I see confirmed to-day by those who are their legitimate r eoesentatives, Ore me an Laurance of the gratitude of the people. I receive the ex pression of it with infinite pleasure, kad I beg of you to:asks POLAND._ REPORTED DESTRUCTION OF WARSAW.

Bellenden Fergus Dacia Won in a canter INDIA MAIL.—Our agent has forwarded us the following, by electric telegraph, from Southampton this flay The Ripoa has arrived, with the Southampton portion of the last India Mail. THE ROYAL ARTILLERY.—Sir,—Those who cla mour for an increase of our forces, on the ground that our combs and seaports are in a defenceless and unprotected state, would do well to take into consid, ration the actual existing state of our army, with the view of discovering whether it is not possible, by a more equitable distribution, to prevent an addition being made to oar already enwasoat synam of taxation. The great rallying point of the war party is the Royal Artillery ; and this, it is contended, must be augmented, even should the infantry and cavalry remain as they are at the present moment. /how, it will be well to put such persons in possessien of the actual distribution of the Royal Artillery at the present moment; and it will be seen that, admitting the necessity for increasing the number of gunners at our great naval stations, there is no necessity whatever to augnu nt the artillery. The Royal Artillery consists at the present moment of 10 hattaliono (exclusive of the Horse Artillery, which is merely maintained for show on field days and reviews), and each battalion consists of eight companies, making 80 companies in all. One of the battalions is of recent establishment, having been formed in April, 1846, and of its eight companies four are at the present time in Woolwich and Chatham, under various stages of drill, sod will soon Le efficient troops. Of these 80 compa nies, 39 companies are on home service, 6 are on the passage out and home, to and from Ceylon and Biabadoes, and 35 are on foreign stations. Of the 39 companies on home ser vice only 11 companies are allotted to guard our seaports, being distributed between Portsmouth, Devonport, Dover, Glasgow, Leith Fort, Pembroke, &c. But while only 11 companies can be spared for our seisporta, 14 companies are idling away their time at head-quarters (Woolwich and Chadian), whilst 9 companies are maintained in Ireland, not for defending our coasts against foreign aggression, but to keep down internal warfare in that first flower of the sea." Now, admitting that it is necessary to keep six companies constantly at Woolwich, as • reserve for foreign reliefs, at least eight companies might thus be spared to augment the companies stationed at our seaports. This would almost double the existing force, and would answer every purpose which the most sanguine friends of increased coast defences could desire. The fact, however, is, that there is no room at Woolwich to accom modate more troops; and on the 10th battalion being formed it was found necessary to send three of the companies to Chatham, as no room could be found for them at Woolwich. Of the fourteen companies at Woolwich and Chatham, it is found that not less than four companies are employed as ser• yenta to the officers and non-commissioned officers, connoting of grooms, coachmen, butlers, gardeners, cow-keepers, and " bat-men," many of these men being ac tually employed as " chambermaids " and cooks. This fact any appear incredible, but it is true; many of the gunners being actually at the pre sent time employed in washing clothes, scrubbing bed rooms, and other work supposed to be done only by members of the setter sex. In fact, it has been found that many men ore discharged from the corps as pensioners after twenty.one )ears' servitude who do not know how to handle • musket, ' and in proof of this it has been found necessary, during the formation of the corps of enrolled pensioners, to teach many of the men the very first action of a recruit. These are feet, which may furnish a peg for the select committee to hang a few questions on. It will be found, if the proposed augmentation of the Royal Artillery takes place, that the new companies will be turned off': to Malta, Corfu, Gibraltar, and other colonies, which are already bristling with bayonets and fenced round with artillerymen. Why, Liter thirty-three years' European peace, it should be ',mod necessary so furnish to Gibraltar, Corfu, and Molten larger force of artillery than they boasted of during the hottest period of the great continental wars, when all the powers of Europe were leagued against us, is a question which some of the war party may be puzzled to answer satisfactorily. It is too bad to call upon the people of this country, already taxed to the limit of endurance, to pay for increased forces for which no earthly necessity what ever exist.-1 send my name, but you may sign this, ONE WHO HAS 131124 THE INTERIOR OP TUB BAHILACIIB.
