Tug National Lifeboat Institution whose existence and prosperity deserve to be counted among the purest of our national glories, and whose indefatigable services will be deemed worthy, in some future and wiser day, of the " Vic toria Cross"—has with its usual promptitude and zeal put forth a recommendation as to the most ob vious and practicable means of saving the passengers and crew of a foundering ship, of which the worst that can be said is that it is as simple as common sense. The Institution proposes that every vessel should be provided with a certain proportionate num ber and size of " standard " lifeboats, instead of the " sham " boats, unserviceable in bad weather, and in emergencies unavailable, which are now carried for appearance' sake, with very little reference to the size of the sbip, and with none to the number of the crew and passengers, and the possible neces sity of lowering them on a sudden, and " living " in them for days in mid-ocean in a gale of wind, or driving for dear life on a rock-bound comet. Here are the suggestions of the Institution : 1. That there should be a sufficient number of boats to carry every person on board a ship, each fitted as a life boat, of the size and description as per given standard, belated to davits at the vessel's sides, fitted with Clifford's or other sanctioned improved lowering apparatus, and having always in her such articles of equipment as should be defined by law. 2. That every suck boat should have painted on her exterior, I. legible and conspicuous characters, the number of persons she was legally authorised to carry, in order that every passenger, or other person on board, could, at any time, by adding the total numbers together, satisfy himself that there was lifeboat accommodation for all. It would also be a manifest advantage that every boat should be of corresponding size, so as to take an equal number of persons on board. Thus if each was authorised to carry 30 persons, it would be readily calculated that each 10 boats would carry 300, and the number would be so familiar to every one, that in the hurry of taking to the boats the regulated safe cargo of each would be more certainly known,' sad less likely to be departed from. 3. That on leaving port, and at certain intervals during every long voyage, the captain of the ship should muster all hands, and call over the names of the officer to take charge, the crew to work, and the passengers to embark in each boat individually specified. 4. That the boats of every passenger ship should be ape. sally and carefully inspected and reported on by the ap pointed government inspector previous to each voyage. At present the inspection of ships' lifeboats is of no service, u there is no fixed standard, and it is notorious that the gene rality of those in passenger ships, and nearly or quite all of those in our coast passenger steamers, area mere sham, nnentitled to the name of lifeboats. " Although," the Secretary of the Institution remarks, " such boats cannot be made to possess, " in the same degree, all the valuable properties " of the coast lifeboats of the Institution, chiefly " in consequence of the much greater weight which " would be thereby entailed, yet this experimental " trial " (in allusion to some experiments conducted before the Lords of the Admiralty) " sufficed to show that they could be made to " approximate to them, and that without exces " sive weight they might possess considerable sta " bility, either entire or partial self-relief of any " water that might be shipped, a large amount of " extra buoyancy, and, lastly, partial self-righting "power, so that they could, if upset, be readily " righted again by their crews in the water." We dare say many people who read these simple suggestions will begin by wondering how any vessel could ever have put to sea without a boat or boats capable of carrying every soul on board in safety, capable of being instantly and securely lowered, and manned with its own regularly mustered crew. We trust that, after the first surprise is past, they will join in hoping that every vessel of war and every merchant ship will at no distant day be pro vided with ample standard lifeboat accommodation. Surely if there be any question in which the public of these islands are interested it must be this. And yet the Board of Trade, officially censorious as the public it represents, with all its mercantile de partment, and all its apparatus of courts of in quiry, and its Merchant Shipping and Passenger Acts, has done nothing beyond inspection and in quiry. Indeed, the Board of Admiralty never moved in the matter till the Lifeboat Institution had actually invited them to see a lifeboat. And as to the public, whether sailors or passengers, it is certain they will never consult their own safety ; they constitutionally prefer the risk. The Lifeboat Institution, if its valuable recommendations are attended to, will save hundreds of Englishmen in spits of themselves. A Philadelphia correspondent writes :—" The great railroad ease in the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, , in which the Pennsylvania Railroad endeavours to annul swims agreements between the Atlant;e and Great Western and other roads, has not yet terminated. Counsel are Mill arguing the ease, and the trial, one of the most important ever held in Philadelphia, attracts railroad men from all parts of the country.

(THIS DAY.) Union goverement might cane° the treader provinces of Mexico to be overrun * American guerillas. That this is felt in both countries is evident from the anxiety et the Mexican government; and from the readoess with which the sews of American interference is believed by all classes in the Union. But the Timis is still inclined to think th•t the Federal government will do all in its power to prevent either forays into Mexican territory or the ass eeptaacie of service under Juarez by American dtisens. Although Mr. Johnson views the mon►rchy with dislike, and his people are determined that the French shall quit, there is sufficient temperance of feeling iu the community to make them bide their time. The publication of the correspondence between the United States and France gives further reasons for believing that, in spite of much excitement in the former country, everything will go well between the two powers. Indeed, it is probable that a fair understanding already prevails between Mr. Seward and M. Drouyn de Lhuys on the subject. LATEST INTELLIGENCE• (ircrrzz's ruzaaAm.) SPAIN. IiLDSID, Jan. 30, Baum°.

George Ringwood, 36, painter, was indicted for feloniously killing and slaying Grace Ringwood, on the 9th January instant. The prisoner was alto elixrged on the coronet's inquisition with a like offence. Mr. Collins and Mr. Streight appeared for the prosecu tion, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. Mettaalfe and Mr. Butler Rigby. The evidence in the ease disclosed these facts :—The pri soner andhiswife(the deceased) had been married 15years, and had lane nine children, the prisoner being • sober, in dustrious, and well conducted man, while the deceased was addicted to habits of drunkenness. On the evening in question, about 9 o'clock, the deceased entered a beer shop kept by a Mrs. Beeson, in Dean-street, Paddington, and she was then intoxicated. In about half an hour afterwards the prisoner came io, and for some time everything went on peaceably. The deceased sang • song, and after that the prisoner began to speak of a good con tract he had made that day, upon which the deceased inter fered in • most insulting way, and told the prisoner that • beershop was not the place in which to talk of busi ness matter'. She used most obscene language to him, and called him • thief. The prisoner bore this sometime, but at last the deceased threw • bottle at the pri soner's head, but by stooping he avoided the intended blow. The prisoner at last said " I will put • stop to this," and taking up • knife from the table, rushed at the deceased and stabbed her in the neck. The blood (to use the language of one of the witnesses) rushed out like water from a tap and her death was almost instantaneous. When the prisoner saw the fatal effects of his act he became deeply affected, and expressed the utmost contrition. He was taken into custody, and stated to Inspector Steer that he knew what he had done, that it was done in the beat of passion, and in order to protect himself. It was elicited by Mr. Metcalfe in his cross-examination of the witnesses that the deceased was • very drunken and violent woman, of great muscular power, and that she had often been charged at the polies-court with assaulting the prisoner, who had paid the fines rather than his wife should be sent to prison. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of manslaughter, but strongly recommended him to mercy on account of the provocation he tad received.

Storks in Jamaica is described by the Daily News, oa the faith of advices from the colony, as diffusing a feeling of confidence among the people to which they had long been strangers—loyal men living in oontinaal peril even until the actual removal of Governor Eyre. Happily we shall not be so dependent for information as here tofore on the oclonial press. The letters of English oorreapondents, who will unite impartiality with intel ligence, are beginning to arrive, and before loss the num ber of sources of information will be considerably augmented. Those at present received do little more than record the first impressions of strangers, or echo the opinions of those residents with whom the writers have come into contact. The statement by one of the corres pondents that only 500 Degrees were killed is wholly irreconcilable with other assertions made by officials under their own signature. The Jamaica government opposed a motion made in the House of Assembly for an inquiry respecting the numbers slain. The Rev. R. Gor don, of Kingston, Jamaica, head master of Wolmer's Grammar School, whose letter the Doily News printed on Friday last, and who was one of the clergy prevent with the Bishop of Kingston at the induction of Sir Henry Storks, states his belief that at lout three thousand, in. eluding infanta, children, and women, were slaughtered ; and if any attach importance to the extent of the loss of life thus caused, the estimate of • resident in Jamaica may be thought of equal authority with the second. baud report of a new corner. The Daily News gives further extracts from Jamaica correspondence, show. ing that the lettter from the Rev. Kr. Radcliffe, a Ares• byter of the church of Scotland, published last November, and about which much discussion has taken place, instead of being a truthful narrative of the late outbreak, is full of statements which are strangely untrue. The Post regrets that the negroes in Jamaica should have misunderstood the suspension of Governor Eyre, but thinks it will not be difficult for Sir H. Storks to disabuse them of the notion that henceforth they can murder their white fellow subjects with impunity. He has arrived at an oppor tune moment, for the legislature has disappeared, and there are none who can control his authority. Unfor tunately the treatment of Mr. Eyre by the government has led the negro population to conclude that his entire policy was assumed to be wrong, but the consequences of this error have to a considerable degree been neutralised by the unanimous adhesirn given to Mr. Eyre by that portion of the colonial population which, notwithstanding its usequal numbers, the negroes will be compelled to rt. spect The Herald says there can be no doubt now that the whole body of the white inhabitants of Jamaica are tins nimotui in approving of the conduct of Mr. Eyre, and it contends that every day makes it clearer that the measures of repreesion and the execution of the rebels did not pass the bounds dictated by justice or suggested by the obvious necessity of self•preservation. It is true that there are some in England who still maintain the innocence of Mr. Gordon, but the list of names found amongst his papers afford additional proof that he was at least privy to the rebellion. The Telegraph sees in the events in Jamaica fresh evi dence of the incapacity of the negro for political life, and e ven for conspiring successfully, and finds that as the facts come more completely there is all the greater reason to believe that an organised and widely-spread plot existed, the consequences of which, bat for General Eyre's prompti tude, vigour, and dogged English coinage, might have been appalling. A day may come when Englishmen will wonder why he was put upon his trial. You try a man by °Durk martial, and very properly, if he loses his ship; but you do not ask him to surrender his sword immediately after he has saved his ship. Already most of the charges against him have faded away, and the notion of "cruelty" seems to be abandoned by almost all except those whom one would positively wish to retain it. But the teak before the oommiseonere is still a grave one, for they must in quire into the state of the island, and make suggestions for its future government—just the course advised by Mr. Eyre before the late revolt. The Star immures the special correspondent of the Times for making such positive assertions as to the facts of the revolt and the state of public feeling, after a residence in the colony of only eight and forty hours. He has ap parently allowed himself to fall passively into the hands of those who know how to make him the medium exclusively of their own views and their own stories. TEI ENGLISH SW& Though believing that under existing circumstances the relations of the Dorsetshire labourer to his employer, as described by Earl Shaftesbury, are not only necessary but the best that could be inaie—the Times nevertheless characterises them as constituting • mild species of serf dom, and remarks that no commercial enterprise carried on upon such a system could stand the competition of per fectly free labour and money wages. If the supposed reci pient of 9r. • week, with the allowances, perquisites, and opportunities described by the noble earl, were offered Ifs. a week, and nothing else, be would snatch at the offer, but very soon find himself oonsiderably worse off ; indeed, going to the bad altogether. He would spend all his money in winter, and grumble at not having more in harvest time. He would sorely miss garden or " &Lott:tent." He would always be wanting something extra for tho least extra work, When the rain or the wind came in at his roof, his windows, or hie door, when the chimney refused to draw, and the floor was flooded, he would look about in vain for the intervention of the bailiff with his staff of builders and carpenters. He would be sur prised to find what rent stands for when it is commercially calculated upon the actual cost of the cottage. In fact, he would find himself a free labourer in the open market, like a bricklayer's labourer, or as a "n at ►y," and no longer • predial servant. Bat it cer tainly is rather curious, amounting to • na' ioaal paradox, that just at a time when slavery is re ceiving its last condemnation by the civilised world, when the commerce of mankind is more and more on the exact principles of political economy, and when we are all seriously considering how fa we may extend household suffrage and include the working classes in the pale of the constitution, we should find ourselves estimating the condition of our agricultural labourers precisely as we should that of an African slave in the Southern States ; for in discussing the question of slavery its opponents have always concluded that no amount of domestic care was equivalent to the full money wages, which make a man every now and then the possessor of a sum of ready money, and so really his own master. IRISH DISAFFECTION. The Daily News finds in the evidence which Fenianism affords of social divisions in Ireland, of the unabated mutual animosity of the several classes of the Irish poplation, and especially of the wide gulf which divides the owners from the cultivators of the soil—its most lamentable feature, though one 'bids cannot give surpriseto thoeewho have read Irish history or who know human nature. The instances are numerous in which, under just and generous treatment, a conquered people has become heartily one with its sub jugators. But few cases can be pointed to in which this result has been at'ained when the victorious power has employed ■s the instrument of its role an ascendant minority of the subdued population itself. This, uefortn tunately, has been the plan which has been adopted for eight hundred years in Ireland, end which has not yet been wholly discontinued. Orangemen are attached to England mainly is the power which keeps them uppermost. When ever protestant ascendancy is threatened, orange loyalty is for the time suspended. After referring to recent speeches at Belfast on the orange side, and to Alderman Dillon's address on the other, as showing that extravagance and uncharitable feeling are not restricted to one party or pro vince in Ireland, the Daily News deduces the moral that the internal dissensions of the country must be healed be fore she can assume her proper place in the imperial sys tem, and that this cannot be until the principle of go vernment by alternate fuouririem is ab indeed. Until the policy of perfect equality between the churches, and of equitably revising the social relations of the several clause in Ireland, has been adopted, the day will still be distant when, as Sir Boyle Roche anticipated, " the two sisters shall embrace like one brother." THE UETTED STATES AND NNXICO. The Times thinks it probable that the affair of the alleged capture of Bagdad on Mexican territory by a Federal regiment of col•.nred infantry I much exaggerated. But even were it not eo we may trust that the ♦merican government and the military commanders are sufficiently etranr to p event any teems violation it centrality. Un doubtedly a vary little encouragement on the part of the MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS. The Times expeots the extreme radical party in the United States to protest against the late orders of the Freedmen's Bureau, ordering, in the Case of Georgia that the negroes, when sufficient wages are offered, shall make contracts for labour, and undertaking to ensure the execu tion of these contracts, when duly made, by compelling the blacks, if necessary, to perform their work, but their re clamations are likely to be disregarded. Taking warning by our experience in Jamsics, the United States under some system or other will exact involuntary labour from the negro, a course from which our own Watt Indian colonists were so rigorously debarred. The Times tells the manufacturers of Lancashire that the true substitute for the government mistime in the regulation of the Indian cotton supply which Mr. Barley demands, is to establish agencies there themselves—to introduce more perfect methods of cleaning and preparing the raw material, and to give the native cultivators an assuranoe of orders for the next season. If it be not worth their while to do this, how can they expect the government to undertake the risk—for nothing less would suffice—of guaranteeing to the ryots a sale for produce which may prove wholly unsaleable! Beyond favouring in every legitimate way free communication between all the classes interested in it, and adjusting equitably the burdens on laud, neither the home nor the Indian govern. ment have anything whatever to do with it. The Daily News comments upon the want of nursed in Ragland, and urges that a system of skilled unrsing should be practised in connexion with every workhouse in the coun try. At present the hospitals themselves, which are to be the training field, are as yet uneupplied ; and the managers of the Nightingale Fund are overwhelmed with applications from hospitals, workhouses, the new village hospital', and schools and homes. Their former pupils are scrambled for, and every one of them is well paid, in proportion to her demerit,. Thus the workhouses depend on the training schools, and especially on the one which bears Florence Nightingale's name. Till those institutions send out trainers to conduct other schools the supply must run miserably short of oar needs. When the new St. Thomas's Hospital, the school of the Nightingale Fund, is opened, scope will be afforded for a much larger attendance of practitioners, and there are promising indications in various quarters as to the prospect of women undertaking, at length, their part in the care of the health of the country. . _ . The Daily News thinks it impossible that the country should indorse the act of offended authority on the part of the Admiralty, by which they have cancelled the order given to Captain Coles for allowing him the opportunity of inspecting ►nd advising upon she plans for • sea-going turret ship, on account of his alleged attacks in the public pure upon the officers in the department. No offi dal jealousies and suseepubilities can be permitted to deprive the nation of the benefit of hiving an incalcul►bly import ant invention tested under the eye of the inventor himself. A perusal of the documents in the new Italian " Green Book," the diplomatic record of the year, leads the Post to reflect on the change which has taken place during the last 20 year', giving us—instead of political discontent, and Austrian and church influence engaged in keeping the people in bondage and ignorance—a constitutional king dom of 22,000,000, a considerable Italian army and navy, railways in all directions in the peninsula, and the admis sion of Italy amongst the countries adopting free trade. But the finances are getting worse, and the Post is con vinced that by boldly deciding on a very large economy in warlike expenditure the King and his advisers would be choosing the lesser of the great evils which threaten the kingdom. There can be no dispute, observed the Telegraph, that— whether the shareholders would profit or not—so far as the population of London and Brighton are concerned, the opening of another railway between those towns must be a considerable benefit ; what will have to be shown before parliament is, that an additional line is required for the public convenience, that the construction of it would not be unreasonably prejudicial to the existing company, and that there is sufficient traffio for both undertakings. Both, is quite conceivable, might find ample employment. Ex perience constantly shows that, as larger and more liberal facilities are given to the public, full advantage will be taken. The Telegraph deems it natural that our leading artists should prefer their independence to the post of President of the Royal Academy, with social and official duties of an onerous and exacting nature to perform, and with a salary of no more than 3001. a year. It is artistic death, it is pro fessional suicide, to take it ; for the cost of its occuponcy fells upon the purse as well as the time of the president. Still there are always men who are in every way fit for a post which demands an part'colar genius, and to whom the discharge of the duties would be a crngeoial task; and if the Academy expects to obtain such representatives, it should endow the office mere liberally. the Court.

The following is the full text of the despatches exchanged between M. Drouyn de Lhuys and the French Ambassador at London relative to the extra dition treaty between France and England. THE MEM= FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS 0 PRINCE DE LA TOUR D'AUTERONE. _ _ Paris, Nov. 29, 1865. Prince,—l had the honour in February and March last to address to you various communications upon the subject of the repeated want of sumer experienced by our demands of extradition in Great Britain, and my last despatch of March 11 foreshadowed the probability and even desired you not to leave the cabinet of London in ignorance, that if the ameliorations we were desirous of in troducing into the system created by the oonvention of 1843 were rejected, we should probably find ourselves obliged to give notice of the termination of the treaty. You are aware, prince, of the difficulties of every kind, in face of which our demands for extradition have constantly failed. I will confine myself to recalling the two principal ones. In the first place the British government refuses to give up to us condemned persona, upon the plea that the convention of 1843 only mentions those who sre accused. Without dwelling upon the contradiction, in our eyes, of a system which recognises the legitimacy of extradition, with regard to individu►ls upon whom weighs only a pre sumption of culpability, and which rejects it as touching those who have legally suffered a judicial sentence, we pro- posed an additional clause to the treaty of 1843, to in clude condemned persons, but our offer was declined by the cabinet of Loudon, which was afraid it could not obtain the acceptance of this clause by parliament. In the second place, the extradition conveutioo, as interpreted by the advisers of the crown, and consequently by the British administration, would consist in the obligation of having the case in some sort adjudicated in England, as we have once more been able to per ceive by the refusal recently given to oar demand for the extradition of a certain Seisser, one of the pirates of the Fceleris Arca, who it was supposed might land in Cal cutta. The Attorney-General of the Indian government and the Crown lawyers have stated that to authorise the arrest and return of the fugitive to France, it would have been necessary to append to the warrant of arrest copies of the depositions already re ceived in evidence, and whose authenticity had been attested by the oath of the person by whom they were put in, so that the police magistrate at Calcutta would be able to state whether the fugitive was priori facie, guilty of the crime for which his extradition was required. Such requirements constitute a permanent obstacle to the success of demands for extradition and differ from the practice pursued by the other powers of Europe. Extradi tion is not a measure invented in the special interest of this or that State, it is the widest application of the principle of penal repression from the point of view of social order, which unites the great family of civilised nations in one common end of mutual protection, and guarantee. Its object is to restore the guilty poison to his natural judge by depriving him of the benefit of the right of asylum as it existed at the time when peoples placed with regard to one another in a state of hostile isolation, remained indifferent to criminal acts effected outside their territory. if this be so, if extradition, brought beck to its true character, is at bottom only • law of international procedure and competence, if this measure, as T said above, is only • means of returning the fugitive to his natural judge, the contracting states in such matters should not demand reciprocally other proofs than those indispensable to verify whether the proceedings are serious, directed by the competent jodge, and occasioned by common crimes. Every treaty that departs from this rule is devoid of real utility, and does not present that character of recipro city essential in international relation,. Twenty-two years of experience have demonstrated the inefficacy of the treaty of February 13, 1843, or rather the anomaly of a situation in which the contract is only executed by one of the parties, and which could not be prolonged without inconvenience to our own dignity. In this state of things the Emperor's government has been obliged to occupy itself seriously with the cars of relieving itself from responsibility, in presence of the facilities offered to malefactors for taking refuge a few hours distance from our coasts, and of an impunity for which public opinion is, up to a certain point, justified in calling it to account, so long as the treaty subsists. Consequently, prince, you will have the goodness to make known, by an official note addressed to her Britannic Majesty's chief Secretary of State, that availing ourselves of the privilege contained in Art. 4 of the Convention of February 13, 1843, we have resolved upon giving notice of the termination of the Treaty, which will cease to be in force six months after this declaration.—Receive, lac., (Signed) DROWN DE LHUTS. TEC AMBASSADOR OP TRANCE AT LONDON TO THE MIN= FOB FOREGIN AIFAIKB. - - London, Dec. 6, 1865. M. le klinistre,—lmmediately after having received the despatch your excellency did me the honour to forward on the 29th November, I hastened, agreeably to its in struotiona, to address to the Queen's Chief Secretary of State an official note bringing to his knowledge that, availing itself of the privilege contained in Att. 4 of the extradi tion convention of February 13, 1843, the Emperor's government had determined to give notice of the termina tion of the treaty, which would in consequence cease to be in force six months after this declaratioe. I have the honour to forward a copy of my note of the 4th Dec. I should have sent it to your excellency earlier, if I bad not hoped to be able to append the acknowledgment of its reception at the Foreign-office. Bat Earl Clarendon whom I recently reminded of this matter verbally, and who considers the expiry of the treaty as notified in due form, begged me to await his reply a short time longer, es he was under the neces sity of agreeing upon it with the Home Secretary.—Be good enough to accept, Ste.
