Notwithstanding that several new Marine Insurance Com panics have been established within the last few years, it la generally recognised that the means of effecting marine Wear iness are not sultelent to meet the increasing expansion of trade, insurers being now driven to effect their Insurances In remote towns in the provinces, In Ireland and Scotland, and on the Continents of ft.twe and America. The actual price of shares In the existing Marine Insurance Companies demonstrates clearly that the busineae Is highly re munerative. Of the new companies one only has been estahlished in Liver pool, and it ha. already secured a very large and lucrative bad- Yore than half the exports and imports of the kingdom pan through the port of Liverpool. and there Is no doubt, therefore, that another company having its chief omoes In London and Liverpool will meet with ample support. Under these cirmunstanoes the British and Foreign Marine hustrance Company has been established. The business of the Company will be confined to the Issuing of Policies on Freight and Goods only, and it is expressly provided, au hinds:Desist react In the wrostitution of Mita Company, that no intnrance shall be effected or, the ships themselves. The principle of limited liability, as applicable to insurance companies, came into operation dur.mi the month of November Wt, The. Directors, observing that, in banking and other im portabt eommerroal enterprises, ?trotted liability has met with universal favour, have adopted It as au unalterable principle in the present undartalstag.

This is particularly the case In the trade between England and America, and ILL proposed. that this Corporation shall commence its operations by the estab lishment of an agency in New York. The pprontable nature of Exchange business is well known, eapecWly that with the American &Mee, and although the profit is at present greater than can be calculated upon in ordintry years, there is generally a much larger margin than is usually found remunerative by bankers. The purchase and sale on commis sion of securities in New York and London, the dealings In which amount annually to many millions sterling, and thu re mittances of interest and dividends, will afford other sources of profit. The practice now become very general of attaching bills of lading to bills of exchange as collateral security, renders ex change operations more than usually safe, whilst the shipment of gold Involves scarcely any risk whatever, The shipments of produce and specie from New York alone for the put year have amounted to nearly forty millions sterling, and the average of several years has not been minis leas. There Is thus a very extended field for the operations of th- corpo ration, and the facilities which it will afford, both In this co entry and America, must tend to promote, and still further to extend, the commercial and monetary tranaaclions between the two • countries. - The mime remarks are applicable to other places In which the eatablistuncut of agencies is COD d. A large business in also an betwixt Amer ca and the wine lu India and China, which will be carried out in co ope ration with the Oriental Bank Corporation. The success of Jototatock Banks dealing in Exchange to evi denced by the present quotations ot the therm of the under mentioned Companies : and it is somewhat remarkable that the Jobitditock principle has not yet been adopted In the Arntrienn trade, though presenting a wider field for its profitable operation than,any other part of the world. . . . - Present .

TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (acorn's TILEGWOL) AMERICA. PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S PROCLAMATION. QUITZNEITOWN, TAIL 13. _ _ The Inman steamer Etna, from New York on the 3rd inst., arrived here this evening. She brings 20 cabin and 67 steerage passengers, and 339 dollars (1 339,000 dollars) in specie. . _ The following is a summary of her news : NEW YORK, Jim 2, Evianao. President Lincoln has issued a proclamation stating that, in accordanoe with his proclamation of September 22, he designates Arkansas, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South and North Carolina, and portions of Louisan* and Virginia, as being in rebellion. He orders that all slaves within those States and parts of States are and henceforward shall be free, and declares that the Federal government, including the military and naval authorities, will recognise and maintain the freedom of such slaves. The President further enjoins the slaVes to ab stain from all violence, unless in necessary self defence, and recommends them, in all cases when allowed , to labour for reasonable wages. He declares that slaves of suitable condition will be received into the armed service of the United States, to garrison forts and other places, and to man vessels. He invokes the considerate judg ment of mankind, and the gracious favour of God upon this act, sincerely believed to be one of justice, warranted by the constitution, and by military necessity. President Lincoln has signed the bill for the admission of Western Virginia as a State. Mr. Seymour has been inaugurated Governor of New York. He made a speech, declaring that he would uphold the Federal and State constitution ; that his position gave him little control over national affairs, but he ventured to trust that before his term of service expired the country would again be united. The Federal loan of 1842, amounting to 2,800,000 dole. will be paid in coin. The Chamber of Commerce has passed resolutions that the war made upon American commerce by the Alabama is not rebuked by the British preen, nor the fitting out of vessels stopped by the British government, and that American merchants are sub ject to a certain extent to the evils which would attend a state of war with England. A committee was appointed to report what action the Chamber of Commerce shall take in the matter. A severe battle has taken place near Murfrees boro', Tennessee. According to the latest reports, the Federals have broken the Confederate centre and driven the Con federates one mile, the left wing of the Federal, having captured the entrenchments. The losses are reported to be enormous. Four Federal regiments have lost half their men and all officers. Three Federal generals have been wounded. The Confederate Generals Cheatham and Rains are reported killed. The reported raid of the Confederate General Stuart's cavalry into Maryland has proved untrue. The report arose from several guerillas having crossed the river. General Stuart had retreated safely, and recrossed the Rappahannock near War renton. The British steamer Caledonia has been wrecked on Peaked-hill Bar, Cape Cod. No lives lost. NBW YOBS, JAN. 3, Molinaro. The latest despatches say that two Federal divi sions were in Murfreesboro', driving the Confede rates, who were retreating. Fighting commenced on the 31st ult., and con tinued on the two following days. The losses are very severe. General Butler has arrived at New York, and proceeded to Washington. It is supposed he will have au important office. The Richmond papers say that the Federals attacked Vicksburg during 27th, 28th, and 29th ult., and were repulsed each time with heavy loss. Fighting continues. The Guerilla General Morgan is reported to have been defeated at Rolling Fork, Kentucky. _ _ President Jefferson Davis has arrived at Mobile. Governor Seymour, of New York, has ordered a trial of the New York Police Commissioners and Superintendent Kennedy, for permitting the use of the New York police stations for the illegal deten tion of citizens. The republican journals approve of President Lincoln's emancipation proclamation. The New 104 Herald thinks it unwise and ill timed ; and the New York World looks upon it as being unconstitutional, and note war measure. 0011MEILCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

The governmental measure creating twenty-seven new peers has been generally received with dis approbation. A subscription has been set on foot in Lisbon to assist the distressed Lancashire operatives. The tug steamer Torre de Belew, Captain Louis Burney, belonging to a Glasgow company, has rescued 120 fishermen and 11 boots which were in peril off the bar of Figueira. The tug went at the request of the Portuguese government, which has officially testified its thanks to the captain. Don Fernando continues firm in his refusal of the throne of Greece. The late severe weather has done considerable damage to the railway works in Portugal. Her Majesty's ships Warrior, Black Prince, Revenge, and Resistance, have returned from their cruise. The weather continues wet and stormy. Exchange on London, 90 days, 54} ; Paris, 5.30 ; Hamburgh, 4811 ; Rentes, 48k. 818 O WOOD AND MB. STANSIELD AT HALIFAX. Sir Charles Wood and Mr. Stanefeld met their constituents at Halifax, last night, the general intend of the meeting being Maenad by the explanation on Indian affairs which Sir Charles was expected to furnish. The opinion of the right hon. baronet is that, if the manufac toren were willing to give a indlioient pries to induce people to cultivate cotton, the people would do so. He added that the present condition of India offers no obstacle to cotton being taken to the sea coast and exported. Bider. ring to the question of public works, he said he had really authorised the expenditure of more mosey than the autho rities could spend. He bad authorised the expenditure of three millions, and the answer was that it could not be done, as neither superintrodenoe nor labour were to be had. Sir Charles added, however, that 7,000 men were now employed on roads which would be completed in time to be of servic.! for the next oaten crop. He denied that he had reversed the land lame policy of Lord Canning. There was not the slightest truth in the charges made against him on this point, and, indeed, it was net correct to may that the policy was Lord Canning's. The right hon. baronet said be would endeavour to awry on the government of India on the principle of the " greatest happiness to the greatest number." With respect to the American war, the government had deemed it its duty to observe the most perfect neutrality and impartiality. We had been, as might have been expected, blamed on both sides, namely, by the North for what had been called a too early recognition of the belli gerent rights of the South, and by the South for not recog nising them altogether. He believed the British govern ment were right in both cases. In the lint place, it was not done as a favour to the South, but because it was indispen sable for them to define the position in which the vessels of the South stood towards us. Either they were belligerents °easy Wile pirate', and hardly any man in England would say that • vessel holding • commission from wen or eight millions of people who formed • de facto state enold be treated as a pirate. (Hear, hear.) On the other hand, when the French government Invited the &Walt government to interfere between the North and South, they felt it to be their duty to decline, not became they did not sympathise with the amount of human struggling in the couutiv, or shrtnk from anything that would hold out a reasonable prospect of Suttees in putting en cod to the contest now raging, but that they believed that auy offer of mediation which they made at the present time would be sure to be refused, and prevent them taking such a course in Ware, when they might think that there was a chance of MOMS. That • better feeling might arise he could not but hope, in which taro the government would hold itself perfectly free at soy time to take • step which it might think would be acceptable to both parties for the sake of terminating this dreadful struggle. (Cheers.) He wished that be saw any symptoms of the abatement of bit ' terns, on either side, or any prospect of • speedy termina tion of the wee. Neither party seems to make mach progress. After • struggle which had lasted a year sod a half, both aides stood very much as they were at the tom. menosment. The attacking party was always repelled, even when, as on the last °minion, the utmost gallantry wee displayed upon the part of the rosailants. One could not but shudder at the rpirit in which the war was being carried on, and would to God that public expression of opinion could mitigate the horrors of a sanguinary struggle between members of the same raos and the same family, and of the same name, in which one party is struggling for what,aa far as one could judge, seemed to be hopeless—namely, the reconstitution and re-establishment of the Union. Mr. Sraeitiret.o, addressing the meeting, raid one ground of confidence in our government was the cession of the lonian Islands. The Turks were an anomaly in Europe, and gra drolly relaxing their hold. He was not blind to the danger of a precipitate dissolution of their empire, and could understand what bad been our past policy in the Fast. It had been rather to defend Turkey than the Turks. (Cheers.) But the peaceful revolution in Greece, which gave signs of a tither to become the Piedmont of the East, gave hope of • new and safer development of our policy. His mecum might not be those of our government for ceding tie island; but they were the reasons of the conservative opposition to it. (Hear.) The most momentous event since this parliament began was the American war. lie did not attempt to grapple with that subject that night. He entered not into the merits or demerits of the various parties in America, but be should leave the plat form with • sense of duty unfulfilled, were he not to say that he regretted with a profound grief the current of public opinion, as interpreted by society and the press, of the Southern canoe. The successes of the South would be a triumph for our day sad generation of a system of society founded on slavery. (Cheers.) The state of sympathy that had been shown was not creditable to this country. (Cheers.) Whatever might be its explanation, it was assuredly not the child of charity nor the offspring of any principle nor of any faith. (Cheers ) Several questibos having been put to the members and answered apparently to the satisfaction of the meeting, a vote of thanks to the hon. gentlemen passed unanimously, and the meeting broke up at a quarter-past eleven. Berne Srßascra IN TURKISH DomnuoNs.—ln the Gazette of hat night an order by her Majesty in Council appears, the object of which is to revise the provisions of ►u order made in August, 1860, and to make further provi sion for the exercise of her Majesty's power and dominion, and for the more regular and efficient justice and the better maintenance of order amongst all classes of British subjects, and of persons enjoying her Ma jesty's protection, resident in, or resorting to, the dominions of the Sublime Ottoman Porte.
