To-day, in the Chamber of Dtwuties, a debate took place on the condition of Sicily, in which Signori Laporta and Bruno spoke against the ministry. Signor Peruzzi stated that disorders bad occurred, and were much to be regretted, but that they did not exist throughout the island. Messina and Catania were in the best possible condition. Signor Peruzzi defended the authorities of the Wand, and said the prevailing insecurity was to be specially attributed to the Bourbons, who at the moment of their fall, opened the prisons. The minister also defended the legality of the application of the law on brigandage in all the Southern pro vinces in which the law was necessary. Signor Peruzzi will continue his speech to morrow.

The Oesterrriehische General Correepondeta says that Mouravieff's system of oppression has now been completely introduced into the kingdom of Poland. The inhabitants of the smaller towns are forced to sign addresses of loyalty in the Russian language (which they, of course, 13 not understand) under the threat of a heavy contribution. The correspon dent of the Invalids R 114116 says that in Lithuania "a new disarming of the inhabitants is taking place, and the houses of foresters, and all isolated houses in such situations as may be used as an asylum by the insurgents, are be ing made uninhabitable, their roofs being taken off, the stored, broken topieoes, and the windows and doors removed."

Dr. Henry Wylde, recently elected Professor of Moro at Gresham College in the room of the late Mr. P 4. ward Taylor, is now delivering his flirt series of lectures, to which, as is generally known, the public are admitted gm tuilously. The late Professor Taylor raised this lectureship from a mere sinecure to an efficient per ; for daring his whole incumbency the room was always crowded to the doors with gratified listeners. His superior we trust will follow his footstep in this respect. His opening lecture at tracted a very large audience. II was, al course, of as intro duotory nature, sod contained some observations on the per sent state of music which, as well as several voral and io strnmeetal pieces performed by way of illustration, were re ceived with much favour. In commencing the lecture, Dr. Wyldepaid agraceful and deemed tribute to the memory of his eminent predeorsor. The Moise of Rossini is about to be immediately revived at the Grand Opera, supported by Md.lle. Marie Botta, M. Obis, M. Villszet, and M. Faure. We hope this example will be followed at one or the other of our Italian Theatres, for this opera, one of Rossini's noblest works, is falling into total oblivion among us. The licence for a new musical theatre, L'Opdra . Populaire, to be emoted in the neighbourhood of the Roe Cadet, has been granted to Roger, the celebrated tenor. HEINRICH Estarr.—This illustrious violinist, as is well known, has for some years been disabled from the exercise of his art by an illness so severe as to have been considered almost hopeless. He is now in England under the treatment of the " water-cure," from which he has derived such benefit that sanguine hopes are entertained of his complete recovery. For some time past hesiod Madame Ernst h►ve been the guests of Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, at Knobeworth. The series of essays oontributed by Sir Edward to Btaekuvars Magazine under the title of " Cartoniana" has just been reprinted in a separate form, with the follow ing dedication to the pea* swidao--a graceful tribute ►ode to the artist and his art :—" To Heinrich Ernst—My dear Ernst, accept the dedication of these ' Essays.' You will recognise io some of them subject. on which I have not unfrequently conversed with you and the charming critic who so worthily bears your distinguished name. The friendship I have formed with natures so noble as hers and your own has added a new charm to my life ; and all who have the privilege to know you will comprehend the affec tionate pride with which I inscribe to that friendship this grateful memorial. E. B. L.—Knebsworth, October, 1863." DRAMA. ROYALTY. A new and original farce, called Mad as a Hatter, which from its subject and treatment will doubtless excita the attention of Mr. Charles Reade, who may see in it an other attempt to teach the lesson taught in Hard Cask, was produced at this house last night with perfect and served suooess. The author, Mr. Francis Marshall, though unused to stage writing—this being, we believe, his first effort—has evidently considerable natural ability as a fame writer, and sortie portions of his little piece really rise to the level of comedy. ROYAL CIRCUS. The new equestrian entertainment at this house, announced with very little preliminary flourish, was pro. dinned last night before an enthusiastic audience, who were literally packed from the sawdust to the ceiling. If soy fair inference can be drawn from the rips of first nights, and some allowance ought not to he made for the Cattle Show visitors, this new central eircus—coming, as it does, to fill sn acknowledged gap in the round of London amusements — will well repay the enterprise of Mr. Wilde, the proprietor. The Alhambra is undoubtedly one of the finest gymnastic antes in Europe, and the alterations made in it during the last month for horse-riding perfermances have certainly improved ita appearance as an amphi theatre. Well-lighted, well provided with comfortable seats at all priors, from sixpence to a guinea, it is now being put to a use for which it most have been intended by that Society of Schoolmasters who sank • capital of 100,0001. in building it. The equestrian entertainment is entirely under the direc tion of M. Bastian Francon', who has been engaged with his large stud of hones and hie European troop of riders. Nearly twenty scenes of equitation and tumbling are given —some comic, some daring, and all excellent of their kind ; the humours of the ring being spiritedly sustained by three or four French sad English clowns. POLYGRAPHIO HALL. Mr. Elliot Chad. musical entertainment hag been'postponed in consequence of the illness of Mn. Oiler, and he announces that all money taken for ticket' will be returned on application. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. CAMBRIDGE, Dec. 7.

" That such works are to be in all respects under the direction of the town councils and the other boards set forth to the act, and is no case under that of relief committee. ; and that it is not within the scope and intention of the set that any relief committee should est on such workmen and pay them either according to the scale of relief or the usual rate of wages "This committee, therefore, cannot sanction the employ ment of any men in receipt of relief on public works for which a loan Wu been obtained under the act of last session of parliament." The resolutions having been spoken to by several gentle men, were carried in the above form, having been verbally altered to embrace one or two suggestion. made duriog the discussion. . _ _ The Hog.

Letters were also read from Stroud, Heodal, and other places, offering to remit attic balancer in bend on account of the relief fund when they were desired to do so. _ _ _ The Hon . 137ecretari was directed to reply to theme letters, requesting that the balance@ should be forwarded u woe is practicable after the Ist of January, and that if the com mittee at Kendal thought fit to send any part of their con tributions in kind, in the shape of clothing, the committee would accept them. If, however, this plan was adopted, the articles should be forwarded with as littledelay ma possible. LIBERAL likrtorzas.—The celebrated London Works, Stnethwick, in Birmingham, at which the greater part of the materials for the first Crystal Palace were manufactured by Messrs- Fox and Hen- demo, have paned into the hands of Mews. Watkins and Keeo, who are working an American invention for the manufacture of nuts and bolts. Thole gentlemen employ • large umber of hands, amide, female, and juvenile. They have erected • large and commodious room, which they are about to hand over to • committee of their work people, as • dining-room, reading-room, &a., and have attached to it • library, bath-room, Having been struck with the fact that many of their men took their meals amid the smoke and discomfort of the works, using the fires for roughly warming their food, they determined to provide them a quiet and convenient dining-room. There will be facilities foe clubs, benefit societies, night schools, lectures, Itc. The opening of the room was celebrated on Saturday evening last, by • large social evening party of the artisans, Messrs. Watkins and Keen presidiog. As address to the beads of the firm, expressive of the gratitude of their worlipsople, ices read, and feelingly acknowledged by those gentlemen. An ama teur concert was given, and addresses were delivered by the Rev. T. G. Simoox, Vicar of Harbor°. ; Rev. R. Ferguson, incumbent of the district; Rev. hex Doris, Independent If mister, and several others. The Rev. Dr. Miller, of Biradog ham, observed that in such meetings be recognised a happy sign of the times. The interests of employers and em ployed, rightly uodentood, were identical. He adverted to the blunders which were made by many who took part in movements for the working-claws, by patronising, or by pauperising them. In much of our intended charity there was great social mischief, because we made those de pendent who should be independent. Many also were often railing censoriously at the working-classes from platforms, who forgot that these had not a mooopol of vice and am godliness. He cited the examples of Pally, James Hargreaves, Richard Arkwright, sad George Stephenson, aa showing what had hese achieved for man kind by men who in their boyhood had been barbers and cow-boys, but who had strecuously pursued selt-oalture under every difficulty.

Th e ordinary quarterly meetings were duly held at the offices 30 Norfolk-street on March 31, June 30, and Oc tober 20. Oersteds Jervis, M.P. has been elected a member of the board. The following members of the executive committee retire by rotation, but are eligible for re-election, namely : -Viscount Ranelagh, Viscount lugedes, M.P., Colonel Browniow Knox, M.P., Captain Jervis, ILP., and T. Knox Holmes, Fog., who offer themselves foe nwelection. The first allotment of estates took place on February 18, of the first pontos of the Waostead estate, in South Essex ; the Anal poetics of the Woodbury Park estate, Tunbridge Wells. in West Kent ; pound rents at Roman-road, Old Ford, Ste. On July 8 the Stoke rod estate, Ipswich. was offered, with ground roots on the Roman-road estate, besides the Castle-bill estate, Reading, a re-allotment of which was rendered necessary owing to the original site of the church having been changed. On the 27th of August, the Heowick-road estate, West Worcestershire, was allotted. Public meetings have been held to explain the mode of allotting estates, and the general working of the society, at Ipswich, on the Stir of Jul itdat which Viscount Benelagh was the chairman, sup by J. C. Cobbold, Esq., M.P., one of the trustees of the society, the Hon. and Rev. W. 0. Talbot. and Capt. Jervis, M.P., members of the board ; and at Wore/Mar on on the 17th of August, at which Sir E. lochmers, Bart, presided, and at which Viscount Ranelegh, the Hon. and Rev. W. C. Talbot, sod the Elm Robert Bourke, attended as a deputation from the board. The new states per. Moved for the society during the past year were, Avenue or Bevois Mount estate, et Southampton, Haiti ; the Stoke road estate, close to the Ipswich Motion ; sad the Hes wick.road,Worcester. Another estate was also acquired at Ramsgate, but the agent's sale thereof not beteg ratified by the owser, it was not cousidered expediest to stand on the preliminary arrangement It was proposed to have allotted the Southampton estate in October, but owing to delays on the part of the vendors in the rumple- Son of the title, the executive committee have net yet bees enabled to deal with the property. The Woodhouse ses sion, with about four acres of land at the extremity of the estate, has bees sold to a public institution. This sale bas rendered a new plan of the Wanstead estate oeceseary, on which excellent building sites in large or small quantities bane been mapped. Owing to the extension of railroad enterprise in the direction of that popular neighbourhood, • demand foe the land at Waustead has sprung up. The roads on the allotted portion of the property are now completed. The Great Eastern Company have liberally pasted privi leges to the occupants of homes erected, or to be erected, on the society's estates at Enfield and Totteolum. in Middle sex; Wansteed and Oolcheeter, in &sex; and Felixstowe and Ipswich, in Suffolk, by the DODO of base tickets on very moderate terms. These railway passes will no doubt be an incentive to beadles operations in the forth coming year es the estates enumerated above. The Bishop of Oxford has recently laid the first storm of the new church on the Downshere-equare estate, Reading. The value of the property will be enhanced by the opening up of new frontages, in consequence of the erection of the sacred edifice in the rear, instead of in the centre, of Down shire-square, as origioally intended. The opening of the underground railway, and the plural extension of the metropolitan lines, have already acted beneficially OD the suburban estates of the society, and a fresh impetus to building operations may be expected as the new mama& progress. The works on the Colchester estate. and the Woodbury Park estate, Tunbridge Wells. have been com pleted ; the Putney Heath rotate works are nearly finished ; and tenders have bees advertised for the works on the Ren wick-rod estate, Worcester. It it proposed by the board to offer for allotment the second portion of the Colchester estate in the spring. The executive committee have under consider ation several important properties ; and, as • considerable realisation on the estates bought during the past year may be looked for, there is every promise of another successful year for 1864, especially as a very valuable town estate has just been acquired for allotment Owing to the railway pardon through the Ruttish Town estate, a new plan has been issued. The registration returns from nearly all the localities have been quite successful as regsrds the claims of 'Mottos who have purchased land from the society. la Brighton, the revising barrister-despite of the over whelming evidence of increased development sad value of the Road Hill Park estate, seldom, which be totally disregarded-adhered to his original &- Mimi sotwithatesdiog that other claims. nalogous to those of th e allottess of the society have been allowed. The Con servative Land Society is DOW in its twelfth year. It yea commenced at a period when great sod important interests intimately connected with the just privilege@ of all classes were imperilled, and it became the duty of all true patriots to protect them. The origins] political object of the society has been completely sucoassful : it has prevented the coun ties from being swamped with fictitious votes, and it has offered to all classes of the community not possessed of the freehold franchise the opportunity f acquiring it on the basis of property in land, *bleb, *oozier or later, must be come peoStable. The combination of political and pecuniary advantages las is both instances beep a prosperous move meat; sad if the throw incentive to stem has of late years, owing to the Screw of the conservative tendencies Is the country, not been so urgent, the social and commer cial principles of the Conservative Lend B,ciety have become still more marked and more developed. The executive com mittee feel deeply the importance of the duties devolving on them ; Sissy will endeavour to secure the continued souses of the society by exercising the greatest caution in the ac quisition of eligible estates for allotment, and by maintain ing • system of management which has hitherto p rove d so satisfactory to the shareholders."
