Gee . Pollock- Rea. To he SUMO= Extraordioary-inho The Prussian Government having established a sound title to the hatred and contempt of its people, has entered upon a course which will cer tainly excite against it the indignation of liberal Europe. The British public have learned with disgust that the King of PRUSSIA, blind to the sentiments of justice which have led the leading Powers of Europe to acknowledge the duty of non intervention, has adopted the principles of the Holy Alliance, and in a purely dynastic spirit has joined his force to that of the Emperor ALIXANDER to defeat the heroic efforts of the Poles, and force them to submit again to a foreign and detested yoke. For this, and nothing less, is the meaning and effect of the line of conduct which, by royal order, the Prussian generals have followed on the frontier. Without sending, at present, a sol dier across the boundary which separates his ter ritories from the Russian dominions, the King of Pauseu is practising a real military intervention in Poland. We do not know how far the details which Paris contemporaries have given of the convention just concluded between Russ and Prussia may be relied on, and whether Prussia has really entered into an engagement towards Russia analogous to that which Russia assumed towards Austria when the Hungarian insurrection was to be suppressed. But apart from that question, which a few days must render clear, the reports of the last three days have shown that the co-operation of the Russian and Prussian armies is actuaL The Russian troops which, defeated in battle, seek refuge by flying into Prussia, are no longer treated as fugitives and disarmed, as neutrality requires : they are re ceived and entertained as soldiers, organized and equipped anew on Prussian soil, and then sent once more against the Poles. The Polish national forces find the Prussian frontier an impassable barrier ; but for the Russian troops it only exists as a protection from their pursuing foe. They are permitted to march freely to and fro behind it, and, re-crossing it, appear again on the territory of Poland at any point which may suit them. Nor, if we may trust the telegram, is this &IL A reinforcement of thirty thousand Russian troops has just entered Poland through Prussia. These facts give colour to the rumours, themselves ante cedently too probable, according to which a more direct and active intervention on the part of Prussia is impending. The conduct of the King of PRUSSIA is an out rage upon the conscience of Europe, but it is only what was to have been expected of a Sovereign who has from the moment of his accession displayed an amount of ignorance, self-will, and obstinacy which may well appal the friends of his House. There never was a juster revolt than this which Rus sian oppression has provoked in Poland. If any war can be regarded with favour by Heaven, it is that in which a brave people are resisting a system under which they are sacrificed to the va nity and folly of a despotic Prince. The true policy of Prussia is simply to protect its neu trality. But its Government has chosen to pro claim itself the enemy of the Polish people. By this abuse of his power the Krim justifies before the world the wise distrust shown by the Chamber of Deputies in their treatment of the Military Budget. The army could not safely be entrusted to the KING and the aristocracy. It was certain that it would be perverted to designs foreign to the interests of the country. The Prussian nation is now in s situation to excite pity. Only a few years ago a man might be proud of being a Prussian ; to be so was to belong to • state which by virtue of superior enlightenment, public spirit, and courageous fore sight had acquired ascendancy in Germany, and was leading it on to a glorious destiny. Now the Prussians have not only sacrificed all these advan tages to the will of one of the most incapable and stupid men in the kingdom, but they are allowing him to debase the army of a first-class constitu tional Power into a tool of the most debasing despotism. The Prussians, we say, are objects of cimpastion, but that is not a moral situation to which any people can safely resign themselves. The place which communities take in the world and the security with which they hold it is determined very much by the treatment they are contented to endure, whether from arbitrary rulers or foreign enemies. It is not safe for any people to allow themselves to be held in contempt ; but it is • danger to which the , THE PEIRCE HT WALES. —Hie Royal Highness the Prince of Wala returned on Monday evening from Tot tenham Park, the seat of the Marquis and Marehionees of dilation, whom he had been visiting since Friday; and the stay was marked with unusually fine weather, and much enthusiasm on the part of the good people of Wiltshire. The Prince commenced shooting is Savernake Forest soon after his arrival on Friday ; and on Monday his Royal Highness honoured the Tedworth Hunt with his presence. The report circulatqd at the close of last week, that the Prince would follow the hounds at the meet at Lye-hill, had the effect of drawing together the largest field of sports men ever witnessed in the locality. It was computed that nearly 1,000 persons were mounted ; and thousands of people from the towns and villages in the neighbourhood collected to witness the meet. Shortly after 11 o'clock, the Prince of Wales, accompanied by the Marquis and Mar chioness of Ailesbury, arrived on the ground, and met with • most enthusiastic reception, and his Royal Highness repeatedly acknowledged the un mistakable manifestations of loyalty. The hounds first threw off at /3rimelade cover, found almost imme diately, and got off after two or three ring, but owing to the great number of pedestrians, reynard went to pound. The pack was then trotted on to Southgrove, and found, but no sport was afforded, in consequence of the bad ness of the scent. Everleigh was next visited, and a fox found; the scent, however, was bad, and the hounds re turned to Southgrove, when a pretty good run resulted, and milord was killed near Lye-hill, the point from which the first start took place. The Prince of Wales, who rode well and displayed much affability, returned at about three o'clock to Tottenham Park, and subsequently left for Savernake station, on the Berke and Hants Extension Rail way. On his Royal Highness approaching the station • torchlight procession was formed by the crowd who bad as ambled, and loud hurrahs were sent forth for the Prince, and also for the Princess Alexandra. The load volunteers were in attendance, sad the railway station was profusely decorated with &pole. The Prince took his departure by the &5 ordinary Sea from Savernake, and was loudly cheered at the various stations at which a stoppage took plaes. Their Royal Highnesses the Princess Helena and the Princess Louisa honoured the Haymarket Theatre last night with their presence, to see Our American Cousin performed, for the 359th time, and liasselas, Prince of Abyssinia. The Prince of Hesse, Baron Weeterweller and Colonel Do Platt boomed the performances of the Adelphi Theatre last evening. _ Gahoard aaya that at the marriage of Lady Wellesley on Monday, the Empress was dressed in a white bonnet and a magnificent India shawl richly embroidered with gold, falling nearly to the ground, the Emperor, "from his seqnsintance with English manners, being dimmed in a plain dark frockcoat and grey trowners with simply the small red ribbon to indicate the Cross of the Legion of Honour. All the officials in attendance on his Majesty were in like manner attired in morning walking. dress Prince Napoleon wore, in the French fashion, • tail coat and ell his onion, as on 00CAli01111 of onemony. Her Majesty, before her departure, presented to the bride a splendid diamond bracelet of great value." . _ Lord Palmenton has been elected a governor of the Oharterhonse. In the House of Lords on Monday next Lord Stratheden will mo►e for copies of all &notches or letters from the Hon. Mr. Mama to her Majesty's go►ernment on the claim of the Southern Confederacy to be acknowledged am an independent power by Great Britain. _ __ On Thursday, in the House of Lords, the Earl of Dudley willsakher Majesty's government "whether they will consent to refuse to all second convictions involving a sen tence of penal servitude any remission of the time of such sentence." The bouquet-bolder in which the bouquet will be presented to the Princess Alexandra, on her landing in England, by the lady of the Mayor of Grassed, in form will resemble a cornucopia, and is so arranged that by touching a spring ingeniously contrived it may be rested in an upright position. The ornamentation will consist of the arms of England and Denmark, surmounted by Prince of Waite feathers issuing from a gold crown set with sapphires. On the reveres will be represented the motto of the corpora tion of Gravesend. The gold work of the cornucopia will be enriched with pink coral and pearls, being the national colours of Denmark. The design and execution of the above is entrusted to Meese P. G. Dodd and Son, goldsmith; 45, Corshill, London.

LINCOLN'S Last evening, at the Russell Institution, Mr. Lincoln delivered the second of his two lectures on the genius of Bach and Handel. Of the first lecture, delivered last week, on the subject of Johann Sebastian Bach, we have already given account. The lecture of last night, which treated of the still more illustrious George Frederic Handel, was equally able, equally irich in sound and enlightened criticism, and calculated to be even more interesting to the English public, among whom the great name of Handel is familiar ass household word, and by whom his music is regarded with • degree of enthu siasm mingled with • degree of enthusiastic veneration not excited by the name or the works of any other musician whatever, native or foreign. No one, indeed, looks upon Handel as a foreign musician. If Germ►ny was the land ' of his birth, England was the land of bin adoption ; we con sider him accordingly as one of ourselves, and cherish his name as proudly ►nd lovingly, as if he were one of the most illustrious of our own countrymen. The Lecture-hall was again filled by • moat attentive audience, who evidently took • warm interest in the sub ject, and in Mr. Lincoln's treatment of it. He set out from the point where be left off at the end of his previous lec ture, recurring to the resemblances and contrasts presented by the lives, and consequently 11 the work", of the two great contemporaries. He entered into an examination of the character of Handel in his various capacities as a dramatic, a eacredo and an instrumental composer. Observing that it was his present object to exhibit the cha racter of Handel in the lightest plisses of his genius, he proceeded to do so by giving specimens of his instrumental oompositiona, so well selected arid so admirably executed by himself and his interesting coadjutor, Miss Fanny that they were listened to by the audience with the warmest demonstrations of pleasure. We cannot speak of all these illustrative performances ; but we may nay that the most delightful of them was the piece commonly known by the name of " The Harmonious Blacksmith"— a =IN derived from • well-known anecdote which has long since been ascertained to be • mere fable. No such name was given to it by Handel himself ; it is found in his " Suites de pikes" for the harpsichord, where it appears a. • theme with variations. The air is so beautiful, and the variations are so brilliant and so full of grace and fancy, that it has always been one of the greatest favourites among the composer's works of its class. Miss Howell played it charmingly, and her performance was received with loud and prolonged applause. The Second Grad Concerto ; the over tures to the opera of Rinaldo and the oratorio of Samson ; several beautiful pieces of dance-music ; and lastly, the march from the opera of Scipio--all most effectively played as pianoforte duets—not only formed • delightful musical entertainment, but gave • lively and striking idea of the style and spirit of the composer. Mr. Lincoln concluded by paying an eloquent tribute to this greatest of all =wi dens, and showing the prodigious effect which his life and labours in this country have had upon rho progress and pre sent state of the musical art in England. The following telegram has been received from Mr. Reuter's office from the Peninsular sod Oriental Company : MEETING or VOLUNTEER 0177Cifte. —Tin EASTER MONDAY REVlZW.—Yesterday afternoon the adjourned meeting of metropolitan volunteer eommaoding officers took platy at the Volunteer Service Club, St. Jaines'setreet, for the purpose of the bearing the arran gemen t s t o b e ma d e with respect to dieposal of volunteers on the °Mon of the marriage of the Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra, end to deeds as to the site for the Great Easter Monday Volunteer Review.

The Debate of today contains a letter written from Vienna, and says, ' The Dachas Auguste de Saxe Coburg begs us to correct the statement made by the Journal des Debate, of the intention of one of her sons to embrace the Greek religion. No proposition has been made to any of her coos relative to the throne of Greece. The princess adds that none of her sons would consent to change his religion in order to gain • crown.' " General Totleben, the defender of Sebastopol, has been named deputy to the Inspector-General of En gineers. A letter from Cairo states that the Duke de Brabant has visited the excavations of Sabres, in com pany with the French archaeologist Mariette• Bey. His royal highness was particularly struck by the tomb of Apis. The effect of those immense subterranean galleries lighted by torches, and the sight of those monolith sarcophagi weighing 64,000 kilogrammes (61 tons), restored to science after so many centuries of oblivion, m►de a deep impression on the duke. His royal highness also made an excursion to the Great Pyramids in company with the bey. The duke has since left for Upper Egypt, and on his return will visit the works of the Suez Canal. The Theatre Alibert at Rome has been com pletely destroyed by dos. The house had recently under gone a thorough repair. A letter from Rome, of the 10th, says :—" The Corso has to-day been without animation. Scarcely any persona but foreigners take part in the Carnival. The young gentlemen of the French embassy have been espe cially persecuted with confetti. The Mayor has passed along in a carriage. The English are vary numerous. They always create laughter by the gravity with which they shoot handfuls of sweetmeats at the heads of the passengers." The ratifications of a treaty of commerce and navigation between the United States and the Republic of Liberia were exchanged yesterday in London by Mr. Adams, the American minister, and Mr. Ralston, the Comet-Ge neral for Liberia. This is the first treaty and recognition of complete equality between the two countries. England recognised the Republic, and entered into a treaty 14 years ago, and has since been followed by most of the other powers, but the Washington government have until now always held aloof from a step of this nature with a coloured community.

Ms BZIKELEY, M.P., AND THE COLUMBIA Tauserr CONTANY.—Mr. Berkeley writes to the Tinier : "Mr. Hasson solicited nee to become • director in this company. Having . acceded on certain conditions, I thereby gave tacit permission to my name appearing on • pre liminary prospectus. Mr. Henson was authorised so far to make use of my name. Any publication of my name beyond this, or any statement that • company was formed, and that I was one of the acting dirocton, was distinctly false, and without my knowledge or consent. No prospectus can be pablished correctly of • company formed without the officers of that company, solicitors, bankers, auditors, he., being named, and no such function aries can be appointed without the sanction of a board of directors. No board meeting ever took place. I was never asked to attend one. Who, then, appointed the man Sleigh to be manager of a company not in existence I would have indignantly refused to belong to any board or to any company in which Colonel Sleigh held any office whatever, or of which I knew that he wee • promoter. Colonel Sleigh was the whole tin,. kept sedulously con. ended from me. Waiting his time, nefariously using a preliminary prospectus, end acting in the name of • com pany which did not exist, end was not even registered, Colonel Sleigh had the audacity to announce himself as a manager of such company, and he made me appear as one of the directors. I never saw the advertisement, and I never saw Mr. Manglee's repudiation of the company. If I bad my repudiation would have followed, as it did when too late to Nave me from a verdict. The injustice you do me is to mamma that I was aware or in any way a petty to Colonel Sleigh's proceedings. I consider that I suffer injustice from the verdict, because the court assumed that if I did not know I ought to have known what was going on." METROPOLITAN CHRYSANTHEMUM SOCIATT.-011 Monday evening a meeting of chrysanthemum growers was held at the Angel Inn, Islington, when Mr. Shirley Hibberd, editor of the Gardeners' Magazine, occupied the chair. The object was to inaugurate • society for promoting the culture of this favourite flower and to establish a =mann exhibi. tiou. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed, and • committee, consisting of equal numbers of nurserymen, gentlemen, gar deners, and amateurs, was formed to carry the project into effect. Sir S. .111. Pero, Cox, ILP., and Mr. Shirley A Hibberd, F.R.ILS., were elected patrons. Mr. Sines, F.R.S., of the Bank of England, was elected president ; and various other preliminaries having bees dis pceed of, the proceedings terminated with • vote of thanks to the chairman.

LIVERPoOL AND THE LANCASHIRE DISTRE:4B.--• At the meeting of the Liverpool select vestry yesterday some discussion took place relative to the recent act passed last amnion relative to parochial relief for the distressed operatives of Lancashire. Se of . the bill, re b :d rl ered it compla ined for town parishes like Liverpool to know when they were legally affected by the provisions of the act. It was also objected that many towns in Yorkshire, which were more intimately connected with the cotton trade and manufacture than Liverpool, wens exempted from the operation of the act. For the demands upon the Prestos union Liverpool has been called upon to provide 2,04i1. • West Ilinhy, 1,070/. • and Toxteth Park, 1091. It was stated that th e Lancaster union wished the vestry to co-operate in opposing the re-enactment of the bill in its pressed shape, and that a meeting of the clerks of the unities of Derbyshire, Lanca shire, and Chesire, will be held at Manchester on Saturday next, to consider the matter. The general opinion of the vestry seemed to be that the burden should be borate by the whole country.

Charles Wheeler Denison, who came over from New York as chanlain in the George Griswold, in the course of a lecture delivered in Liverpool on Monday night, re• jected the wild and guilty phantasy" that man could bold j property in man. Be adverted to facts which had come under his notice in the position which be bad held as United Stales Consul in British Guiana, in reference t, free and forced labour. In one year in the best days of sla vvesrryy 49,000 Mule of sager were all that could 1., prod uced. During the veers of his consulate 52,000 Midi of sugar of the same weight and quality was the product in the same period, thus giving a gain of 3,000 hhds of sugar in a year and he found the same to be equally true with respect to other products. Be contended that the North was in better position to carry on the war than the Siuth ; and in stanced fact that whereas before the commencement of the war there were only about thirty ships of war, they had now upwards of 400 ; and the men in the Federal army had increased from a very small :lumber to 710,000.

In my letter of Sunday last I drew attention to the ambiguous and possibly alarming character of the Emperor's last speech to the Corps Legislatif. Without wishing to put "too See a point upon it," I insisted particularly, in opposition to the Pattie, that the interpretation of it was not ob vious even to the "sagacity" of the readers of that journaL I noticed yesterday that the speech had not, as far as the Bourse was concerned, made the sensation in Paris which I should have anticipated. To-day, however, I find that I was not alone in thinking the speech suggestive of some forthcoming events of no ordinary character. The following extract from Bullie►'s Correspon dence, which is sent from Paristo all the provincial journals, will show you a French idea of the speech, which is by this time widely ventilated in France : In my opinion the Emperor's answer to the addles of the Corps Legielatif contains the germ of some grand move in foreign policy, and gives the key to the sort of contradiction, which is observable between M. Earache's speech and the speeches of the Emperor at the opening of session and at the meeting of Exhibition prizeholders at the Louvre. The words pronounced by the Emperor on Satur day last have not been uniformly interpreted. There is no doubt a certain obscurity in them which wu very likely studied, because in politics, and above all, in foreign politics, mystery and slow approaches are often considered necessary. But !hie much may be said with certainty, that the speech of the other day breathes • totally different spirit to that of January 12. No allusion to the press or liberty is now made. Frenchmen are an longer urged to be self-reliant. Not a word is said about English liberty and English insti. tattoos. But, instead, the Corps Legislatif is called upon to rally round the government in language which infers the necessity of throwing a veil over the statue of liberty, as was the custom on momentous occasions with certain re publics of old time. It would be penile to seek the expla- ' nation of inch unlooked.for language in any home events. I know of none which could possible furuiah the Emperor with an occasion or a pretext to complain of the " exagge- ! ration of extreme parties." The Correspondence then goes on to inquire, without coming to any conclusion, whether, not withstanding M. Billault's discouraging answer to a question put by M. Guyard Delalain on behalf of the Poles, the Emperor may nut be cogitating some grand intervention. The Independance Beige says : The imperial speech is not susceptible of any precise inter pretatioo—nothing can be more difficult than to speak of it with any degree of certainty. The Opinion Nationale and the Miele see, or affect to see, in the Emperor's words evidence of an inclination to interfere on behalf of Poland, and they loudly sound the tocsin of war with Russia. M. Ravin writes in the Sid& : We have faith in the policy which reduced Sebastopol, and which triumphed at Magenta and at Solferino ; the Emperor will remove from his councils "those interested wh a mm ies " who never know how to act, and if the now preponderant voice of France is not listened to in favour of jogi,„ and o f right, we shall, in concert with England, com plete the great and glorious task commenced with her and interrupted in 1856. The question at present is not to destroy the Russian fleet in the Baltic, but in conformity with treaties, which are never invoked except ag►inst France, to re-establish the kingdom of Poland, the *Armload guard of civilisation. England is so much the more autho rised to unite with our diplomacy is thin circumstance, that Russia lately, in virtue of those same treatise, made some observations on the cession of the lonian Islands. The disppearance of the kingdom of Poland and the annihi lation of a brave nation have a far different interest from the cession of a few islands, which would only return to their mother country. Engbah sympathy for Poland, always easily ex cited, ought now to be very prudent. I for one should regard a great war undertaken in partner ship with the Emperor of the French as one of the greatest misfortunes that could happen to England and the world. War of some kind or other may be a necessity, during the coming elections in France, of that peculiar kind of " concord " on which the Emperor congra tulated M, do Murny last Saturday ; but we in M1N....
