NIGH WATII AT LONDON BILIDON. Tine Dav—lteraleg. 41k. 41i. Ma. tesesainr—llieslag, 14. Oa faaa. LONDON, THURSDAY, MAY 8. Two days ego we pabliehed a dement promul gated by the Emperor of Russia, which we ream mend to the serious attention both of oar own military authotities and of those civilians who topsider mili tary matters beyond the pale of oddities. The Em peror of Roast., it seems, having received detailed reports concerning the military hospital of flimphe ropol, sad having perceived with profound regret that the authorities bad not taken active measures for the well-being and medical treatment of the patient., indicts &severe censors on the officers who neglected their duty. As the subject-matter of complaint is the military hospital, it might seem that the censure could not by possibility extend higher than the ehlsf medial oiliest who had sharp of the establishment complained of. Bat meth is not the shallow wisdom of the Rilifian Government. Hie MAMMY *edam, indeed, the chief medical oili est of the Military Hospital of Sebastopol and the director of the dispensary, who have been guilty of therreabsees,to be brought boraces Council of Wsr,snd in the meantime to be placed under arrest. But his MAJESTY also indicts his censure on the Physician. General of the Stag an actual alumina, of State, for set baying stopped the disorders and abuses which marred ; on the directors of the military hospitals of the Booth and of the troops in the Crime, for having failed in their duty of superintending the hospitals and their ibternal management ; and lastly, ea the lieutenant general formerly charged with the duty of vigorous supervision, and upon his sae onne. Now this is the jut method of Misting censure. When abuses occur in may department et military administration it is both "cowardly sad vile" to visit with official indignation the men subordinate. Military government is a system absolutimn, and as the commander-in-chief reaps meet of the glory sublimed by the success of these salt him, so ought he in justice to bur moat of the blew which attaches to their failures and their shone comiege. Hsi' bound to accept the advantages with*, disadvantages. The righteousness of the Russian era temisforcibly preesed upon our attention at thepresent moment. At the very time when officers high in com mand an censured by the Emperor of Rusne. we are witnessing an inquiry into our own military failures, In which it seems to be laid down u an axiom that above a certain rank no censure must in any way be aset—nay, the very names of the chiefs must never be mentioned. Dc,norh is nil nisi bosuns. Bet still it Is vain te think that thus to 'out the play of Huila omitting the character of Hamlet can conduce either to the benefit of the country or to the interests of justice. Again and again attempts are made to separate departments from eaoh other so com pletely es to make it appear that each of them is absolutely independent; indeed, this theory his been carried so far ms to have it said that the whole duties of the army in the field an divided between the Adjutant-General, the Quartermaster- Gement, and the Commimary•General, sa if, for. sooth, there were no Ocesmaudle-in-Chief at all. Ben a notion is simply absurd. If acted upon it mast lead to gross blinder, or if net to hijacks, it must have the effect of sheltering those who really deserve censure. The Cosamander.in•Chiel of an army in the field is not a heathen god, who site usual, the elude to watch the strife below; be is the moving spirit of every department, and is respon sible for the good annum of every one of those de. partisans Rh power is absolute. If any officer in Incompetent he to bound to dismiss him. And when, as in the nee of Lord RAGLAN in the Crimea, he knows the individual history of every officer in the army, be ie doubly responsible, because he hos the most ample lessee of knowing when to select efficient oasts. Bat this aware of the Rusks EMPEROR teethes a farther lesson. It may show Sir Riau= AIRRT and his friends; that Commissions to euremlee late the audition et an army are net so utterly novel and un heard of as they would have us believe. It may show them that eves the Emperor of Russia an fled mu who have the Gunge to report deficisecies, and men honest enough in his eyes to command belief. Bach a circumstance as this may lodges Sir RICHARD to believe that Commissioners, anus they make en unfavourable report, an sot therefore to be deemed corrupt, or sepable of falsifying returns sad garbling evidence. And perhaps when Sir RICHARD has sous;. dared these things he may be mime disposed to acquiesce in the justice of thi rebuke which, for his sun we regret, bat for the sake of justice we rejoice, to find the Board most properly administered to him. Ills quite true, as the Board observed, that the toes in which Sir RICHARD MART has conducted his examination has been too personal. Colonel Tru.ocs and BM lone Mlien.t. may have com mitted mistake,, but it Is monstrous to suppose that they have been so foolish as to have supposed the evidence of any one of the witnesses ledeed, the fasts of the case. u stated by Colonel Thuma. with regard to this absurd allegation, an toe staple and &Mose to afford any ground for the calamine. amertisa. Harlot taken down the 'vides*, of ' ;;gr it zßlLL Co' Z."•;esioners submitted to Ma the draft o f it. Certain shanks@ were Made by the witness and amongst others a marina' note s which Colossi Tomoce, thinking unimportaat, sheik out. The copy so amended was sent to C 01011•1 GORDON, to be submitted to Colonel Wat. Tinutau.--who had by that time left the Crises—in order to be corrected. The same copy was sent beck to Colossi Tuu,sca without any sorreetion. Colonel GORDON having himself moat carefully coreseted his' own evidence, sent back Colonel Wrrisgs.a.L's 'eidetic* untouched; and therefore the pommis sioners, considering Colonel Wsransu. approved the minutes of the evidence' submitted to him, founded their conclusions upon it. It now turns out that the minutes in question never were submitted to Colonel WETHERALL, end there appear to be several omissions to which the Colonel attaches great importance. As yet we have no means of forming any opinion upon the question of their im portance ; but one thing is quite clear, that if Colonel Tui.Locn bu drawn any conclusion unwarranted by the facts, he has dons so not wilfully, but because he has been led astray by the neglect of Colonel GORDON to transmit the minutes of Colonel Wrrnexta.i's evidence, which he ought to have transmitted to that officer. To accuse the Commissioners of wilful alters, Con is not only absurd, but indecorous; and MD the Board felt. Now, however, it is high time to say that the manner in which Colonel TULLOCH is Mated at Chelsea by the party connected with the Horse Guards is utterly unworthy of men in the high position which the mm beta of that party assume to occupy. No one who has been present at the Inquiry can help feeling that, whilst the task which Colonel Mums has under taken is Herculean, everything which insolence and sneering superciliousness can do is done to disconcert him. The Inquiry now being promoted at Chelsea is, in fact, a contest between Colonel TufLoca and certain officers of high rank who wish to be irre sponsible. Colonel Tuu.oco, a professional an, is the supporter of the Minister for War, and not only the military officers inculpated, but their friends sod rela tions in society make no secret of their feelings to wards the man, who, though • military aim, has ventured to daemons their incompetency. To con duct even one ease—the ease against Lord Luton —was enough to exhaust the powers even of a prefsmional lawyer. But Colonel TOLLOCH —alone, and without aid—ha to conduct the oases whist every single officer who deems his prefresional conduct assailed. Bush a task as this might overtook the energise eves of a retained weasel, and therefore it may well overwhelm tie powers of a military man saaccustomed to legal pro. seeding% who is supported by nothing elm except the seem of having performed his duty. It emus that the anxiety and exertion of Colonel Mucci have already produced their natural dints upon him, and that he is seriously ill. Under these cireametanose it becomes the duty of the public, end especielly of Lord PANYIIIII, who seat his ea his dimmable mission, to give him the most determised support. We are booed to say that Camel Tuz.r.ocz, as an able and an honest man, has our hearty sympathy. Nor is this sympathy the less requisite, imamate as Biz lonic Mlieriu., being a civilian, and therefore unacquainted with military details, may well feel some hesitation before he exposes himself to the insolent supercilious. ems of those officers with whom he would be brought into contact in the hell of Chelsea Hospital. Tas Treaty of Peace hsa, it seems, been picked up by that metaphysical individual, the Metropolitan Board of Works, mach in the same way as Mar ia'. letter was picked up by the pompous Nakao. The poor steward had some excuse for his folly : he wee the victim of a deception. Bat why should this Board for the suppression of offensive smells— why should this body of London edilee "tang argu ment' of state, and put upon themselves the trick of singularity ?" Neither Mr. Wit.xissow nor any one of his colleagues has been "born to greet nessow has achieved greatness, or has had great ness thrust upon him." Yet, in spite of the sensible remonstrancee of Mr. BIDOOOD, this Board mut, forsooth, presents dutiful sod loyal address to thi Quzu, on the restoration of Pisa. Now, why should this most metropolitan of boards insist upon becoming so extravagantly Cosmopolitan P Why should these delegates from parishes Its,. the mud and filth in which they are boned to spend their energise, sad, like so many boll-frogs, protrude them selves from their official home of liquid sleigh to lift up the voice of croaking approval! What special mission has the Metropolitan Commission of Sewers —even although a eorpointion—that it should carry to the Throne a congratulatory address, Not even the metropolitan parishes think it noes. easy to do so; and, therefore, why should the mere delegates from parishes take upon themselves so ostentatious a duty P Their business is with main pipes, essepools, and cleanlinem—not with the down fall of Sebastopol or the destinies of Europe. They have nothing to do with war or peace. Even if London were in the hands of an enemy, the Metropolitan Board of Works I. precisely the body whose services would be continued by the conquering general, and whose functions therefore, under any circumstance., are never likely to be interrupted—so long, at least, as the citizen desires a pure atmosphere and mo derate cleanliness. It is impossible to imagine how these busybodies, with Mr. WILKINSON at their head, have deluded themselves into the sup position that this Board of Works has any, even the remotest, connexion with the Pesos. Nothing but a restless desire to keep themselves before the public can have induced them to agree to any such pompous shines as that proposed. Bet let them rest assured that nothing except a fixed resolu tion to persevere in their humble duty can win for them the approbation of the public. As yet they have achieved little or nothing. Let them cosine themselves within their own province. They have, as Mr. BIDOOOD told them, to improve the pablie streets and the sewers of the metropolis —not to exhaust their intellects in composing pelf. deal coogratulatlons. The first address which the Board ought to present to the CIOKIIN should be an address in which they will set Meth the benefits whisk they have confined on their fellow-eitisens by diminishing dbiense and promoting personal comfort.

TURKEY. (PROM ono OWN COARLIPONDINT.) CONSTANTINOPLE, APRU. 24. I have already bad occasion to allude in the course of my correspondence to Moachtar Pacha, who may be considered unquestionably as one of the most able, enlightened, and honourable members of the Sultan's administration. Ever since hisaccession to power, many solid improvements have been introduced into the various branches of the treasury department, and he has evinced a firm determination to earry out a general and fundamental reform in all matters con nected with the monetary and financial system of the empire. A standing grievance hitherto has beta the continual fluctuation on 'Change, and the riecessary perturbation resulting therefrom in all commercial operations. The traffic in foreign specie, and the combined manoeuvres of certain European firms, in regulating for their own special benefit the rise and fall of the exchange, have at length attracted the serious attention of the government. With a view, therefore, of obviating finally a recur rence of such transactions, Mouchtar Pacha, within the last few days, appointed a commission, consisting of 17 members, the chiefs of some of the principal oommercial houses of this city, to co-operate with him in devising the beet mesas of remedying such abuse and putting an end to illicit speculatioc. Two sittings of the commission have been already held at the Mint, and the regulation of the exchange on London was, if I ant rightly informed, on both occeeions the principal subject of debate. Some mem bers voted it at 125 piastres, others at 130. This matter however, I may mention, seems already to have been settled by the force of events, for the pound sterling has fallen to 123, and even 123, and is apparently disposed to remain at tbat standard. It fluctuated from 140 to 130 previous to the conclusion of peace. A quantity of gold is in circulation, and the last monthly payments were made in specie at most of the government offices. Two handsome gold coins have been lately issued, about the size of a doubloon and half dosbloon, in value 500 and 250 pre., equal to 41. and 21. at the present rate of exchange. Paper is rather scarce, and much prized since the mention of hostilities, and will be, it is said, as soon as circumstances admit, withdrawn altogether from eirculation. Tue news of the conclusion of peace has, it appears, produced considerable excitement and agitation among the mountain tribes. Their interests are necessarily most deeply involved in this question, and may give rise to very serious embarrassments and future complications, unless equitably provided for by the allied governments. The firm determine l tion throughout the Caucasus is, it appears, never under any circumstances to submit to the Muscovite yoke; and the impossibility of reducing by force of arms those warlike races has been sufficiently demon strated by a bloody and ineffectual struggle, so dis graceful to the oppressor and to his military reputa tion, duriog nearly &quarter of a century. A deputa tion, headed by Ibrahim Bey, the son of Sefer Pacha, and consisting of above two hundred of the moun taineers, arrived here on the 23rd instant, and im mediately on landing proceeded straightway. to the office of the Sereskier, and exposed to his Ex cellency the objects of their mission. Thence, the deputation repaired to the Pot te, and met with a very favourable reception from the Moustechar of the Grand Vizier. The government has provided a large palace for the residence of these strangers, and made all the necessary arrangements for their wants and necessi ties during their stay in the capital. The address, framed by the national assembly of Circus* will be within a short time presented to the Sultan, as well as to the British and French Ambassadors, for transmission to their respective governments. This document, it is said, exposes with great determina tion the firm resolution of the mountain tribes to pre serve their liberty and independence under the sovereignty of the Sultan, and states that they will resist to the last any attempts of Russia to gain a footing in their territory. It is reported at Constantinople that M. do Titoff will be accredited as Russian minister to this court on the breaking up of the conferences. He is well known at Constantinople as a man of great mode ration and ability, and there could not have been a better selection made at the present juncture. His lady was a Countess Creptovich, and he is thus connected with the family of Count Nesselrode. You are, per haps, aware that M. Titoff has passed the greater part of his life at Constantinople, knows perfectly the languages of the country, and all about Turks and Turkish affairs, and is, besides, if I am rightly in formed, on the very be st terms with Lord Redcliffe. Private letters from Brzerourn speak in no very measured terms of Colonel Giles, the British Commis sioner, and successor of General Williams. It these reports be well founded, and for which I am in no wise responsible, he is "a man of war" in the full force of the term, and in a state of open hostility with almost every person who has had the misfortune to eons in contact with him—nay, even the British officers residing under the same roof have been at length under the necessity of quitting, and setting up a separate establishment. The commonest cour tesies of life, to return visits and so forth, are things, it appears, utterly beyond the comprehension of this functionary—in short, the goad folks . . . . Mestatemation stir., And thick dins a tremendous bear. Who is Colonel Odes? One thing is quite oertaits, that if there be any foundation for the tenth part of these accounts, the government could not possibly bare made a more unfortunate selection than the ap• [ointment of the present British Commissioner at Minoan. The government has issued orders to the various governors of districts throughout the empire to receive the dun and nue in kind—i. a., horned cattle and alimentary supplies, which will not only find a ready market in the capital, bet contribute to alleviate the pressure and urgent necessities of the present moment, to which I alluded in my last communi cation. TURKEY IN ASIA. (nom ova OWN ow ERZEROUM, Aran, 8. The new civil governor, Vedgi Pacha, arrived here on the dth inst. He has the reputation of being a good governor; but it is uuderstood that he knows bow to extort money—as is generally the cue with his colleagues. Major Peel and Mr. Evans are at Olti, to acquaint themselves with the position. They are expected back in a week. Two English surveyors and two corporals are at Devi Boynu, preparing a plan of that strong position. Colonel Giles keeps close in his house, doing nothing. Whether it be from pride or some other cause, he has not returned the visits of any of the respectable residents who have waited on him, and has intercourse with very few persons here. This exclusiveness makes us feel keenly the lose we have enatainedin General Williams. An Aidede•Camp of the Senskier, who arrived here three days ago from Constantinople, informs us that the armistice is indefinitely prolonged, and that he considers peace to be certain. We hope, witk all our hearts, that this may be true; for our district is ruined, and neither barley nor forage for the ca valry is to be found. If the war goes on, our condi tion will become still worse. Our troops are kept inactive, and shut op in their quarters by snow, ice, and the insufferable cold. With the exception of a good many scorbutic cases, their general health is good. There is little proepect of the scurvy abating till vegetation recommences, and that will be two months hence. Feinllah Puha, the Veely of Sins, at one time attache of the Ottoman embassy in London, has been barbarously murdered in his palace, by four of his Georgian slaves. In consequence of ill-usage expo rienced at the hands of their ma3ter, they vowed vengeance, and, having put him to death one night in his sleep, went straight to his chMga (secretary), confessed the deed, and surrendered themselves pri sonars. The murdered pasha had his peculiarities, but he was not a bad man at bottom. Oar most recent advice' from Persia are of the month of March. They state that a portion of the Persian cavalry had occupied Herat, and that the Shah was marching troops and forwarding the mate rial of war in that direction, with a view to invade Candabar. The country between Teheran and Herat is suffering this year from dearth, and it is feared the Persian army will undergo great privations before it reaches its destination.

DISASTROUS GALE OF YESTERDAY.-HIGH TIDE IN THE THAMES DAY. The accounts received this morning at the Custom. hiss. and Lloyd's R ours describe the eff,cts of the gals with which the northern and esitern csasts were visited yesterlay and during last night as most dirastross. The storm commenced about 11 o'clo.llc on Tuesday night. with the wind at E N E., accompanied with driving oath. It increased in violence as the morning advanced, gradu al, drawing round to N.N.E.

The accounts hoot South Shields, Sunder• land, Hardepcol, and Leith roads, state that several vessels, inward bound, were compelled to run to I•eword, and it is feared that much demsge was caused during the night at the entrance of the harbours. Two raves are reported to be on shore in the East Swills, and some few are is positions of the greatest peril. Vast quantities of Slating wreak ere to be men off the coast, and much has been washed on shore. The gale had the effect of day:og an immense velume of water from the North Sea into the estuary of the Thames, from whence, on the fl ;wing of the tide this morning, it ascended the river with such rapidity, as to tame several revels to drag their anchors and come into eolli.ion. It being tiering tide at high wett r, the sea made clean breaches over the embankrneate, inundatieg the love mirth bade, so that al the tide receded, they resembled Tilt inland lakes.
