His Excellency Sir Henry Storks, governor of Malta, was expected here to-morrow in the Psyche, sad preparations were already made fee-giving SirHimrys , mast wslooms reception ; but intelligence was' waived yesterday from Englandby the overland mail that his exerilesey will not return before another fo bright. It is supposed that the duties of the commission on martial law, of which le was lately appointed a member, have detained him in London longer than he had expected. The despatch brat Psyche is still lying at Marseilles, at the disposal of Sir Henry Storks. No movements occurred during the week amosgst her Majesty's ships in this port. The iron-clad frigate Ocean, 31, Captain Stanhope, which left England about a fort night ago to join the Mediterranean fleet, has not yet made her appearance in this island, but is hourly looked for` The despatch vessel Candoc, 2, Lieutenant-Commander C. Wilkinson, has completed her term of quarantine, and has been admitted to pratique. It is stated that she is under orders to proceed to Trieste next week for the purpose of conveying the new Governor of Bombay to Alexandria. We have at present in port the Victoria, 102 (flag ship of the Commander-in-Chief) ; Prince Consort, 35 t Royal Oak, 35; Resistance, 16 ; Enterprise, 4 ; ironclad vessels the Endymion, 21; Cruiser, 5; Caradoc, 2 ; and the receiving-ship Hibernia, flag-ship of Rear -Admiral H. Kellett, C.B. The Cruiser will probably leave Malta in the course of a week or two for the coast of Syria, to relieve the Racer, 11, ordered to return to Malta. Besides the above vessels there are also a Prussian frigate and a gunboat lying in Malta, and they are waiting for orders from their government as to their future movements. Wrens's Tuseasi ) THE CANDLAN INSURRECTION. VIENNA, Dec. 21. Vienna papers publish the following Intel dated Athens, 15th inst., yid Trieste. The British gunboat Assurance has brought Cretan fugitives from the province of Selina Piraeus. General Nalergis 'transmitted thanks of King George to the captain of the •it. The British minister promised to the fugitive(' in case the means at the dia . of the committee should prove insufficient. Greek steamer Panhellenium has returned = damaged from its seventh voyage to Candice, the captain of the steamer has been congra tulated by the English minister. Intelligence from Candia announces that the insurgents had failed in attempt to capture the fortress of Kiasamos. )neoa and Zimbrakakis were uniting their forces, Mustapha Pacha was also effecting a conoen rn. Great discouragement prevailed among Egyptian troops. Fresh proposals had been by the Porte to the Cretans, but had been refused. The British vice-consuls at Pine= and \tbens have been appointed corresponding mem ,of the Philo-Cretan committee. The appoint its have been accepted, with the approval of English minister. An unsuccessful attempt . been made to bring about an understanding dween Bulgaria and Comonduros." The Vienna papers 'also publish intelligence en Constantinople of the 15th inst., stating that Viceroy of Egypt is about to send two fast 'Warners to reinforce the blockade of the Island of adia. It was rumoured that Fuad Pacha was about to be sent to Candid., and would be entrusted ith full 7, THE FEN lAN MOVEMENT. DUBLIN, FRIDAY NIGHT. John Boland, silk-weaver, was charged at the police-court to-day with having some pistol bullets and asword bayoret in his possession. Concealed in the rafters of the room was foundabunclle of letters written by Stephens to the prisoner's brother-in law, James O'Connor, who had been convicted at the special commission. The prisoner was re manded. James Bailie, supposed to be" Centre" for Meath, was arrested to-day at North Wall on the Loral-Lieutenant's warrant. )were.

The thirty-tiftli annual Christmas performance the Messiah by this society was given last night, when Holder made his second appearance at Exeter-ha 1. the occasion of Mr. Hohler's first appearance (in jah, yesterday week), much allowance was to be made the disadvantages under which he sang —suffering )111 a cold, and called upon, at short notice, to replace r. Sims Reeves. On the present occasion, nowever, see are no such reas ins for hesitating to say that Mr. abler appears to have somewhat rashly attempted to ocupy a position for which he is at present by no means erepared. Judging from the two instances in which we have marl Mr. Hobler in oratorio, it would seem that this high wanch of art has not been seriously studied by him. In erevious notices we have spoken of the beautiful quality his voice, and this is frequently evidenced in detached passages ; but his style is crude and unfor r nt med, his phrasing f requen tly defective, and his reading altogethe wang . the dignity and elevation which such music as the oratorios of Handel and Mendelssohn requires. The Messiah is to be repeated on Friday next, when it is ex pected (and to be hoped) that Mr. Sims Reeves will re appear. THE BOMBAY MAIL. PESTH, Dec. 21. (nos ous owe coaassroinrisr.) FRAITIEFORT, Dac. 20. This city still remains very dull. Where a dosen carriages were in former years to be seen waiting before the doors of the shops, none are now visible, and. ultimately many of these places of business will be oompelled to close their doors. The oc currences of every day increase the regret for lost liberty. Property of the town from tinte immemorial, I mean the lirge woods in the neighbourhood, is now claimed by Prussia as State property ; while the debts hypothecated on the same remain at the charge of the citizens. The city authorities are called upon to pro duce titles that these forests belong to the town, and not to the State —a request which cannot be fulfilled, as in the middle ages written documents were not in common use. The young men of Frankfort have been enrolled in the army, and called from their business abroad ; and the consequence is that there is a general flight, and that twenty-two releases from citizen ship had to be granted in one day. The Prussian penal law will come in force here on January 2, in spite of the remonstrances of our judges, who pleaded the impossibility of acquiring the necessary knowledge thereof in time ; still they must sub mit if they would avoid being Prussianed or sent to other provincial towns. If you add to this the general state of affairs ; houses and landed pro perty being almost unsaleable, trade at a stand still, and the greatest uncertainty about the future, it will be seen that Frankfort is in anything but an enviable position. Reports from Austria are very unsatisfactory. The much hoped for agreement with the Hungarians is not likely now to take place, as the Diet insists on the continuity of rights, a concession Austria cannot make without committing suicide. The laws of 1848, passed in atime of general excitement, cannot be put in force by the government. It is exactly the same question which divides President and Congress in the United States ; the former insisting on the continuity of the federal pact, as if all the consequences of its having been broken by --ksion could be swept away by a stroke of the , y • h i I :_ R . . ... .. • • ... : ~ _ _ • • REC 7" ' ‘•., . - -, 1 _ • • ~ . . • talky ruck • year, eu . ist. . i 44a. eel i I i t i , ~..„ . eady root l et . . bal• „ tr i, . . „ erica. ai '''' SOO all aties 7- sd„ to 304.. • . t ie et& t o , 1 „ . .. 5(1.' as &I& 110,, 6,359.] LONDON . sATURDAY EVENING, 'ED.

In addition to these appointments the Secretary of State has instructed his Excellency the Viceroy to appoint a commis sion to inquire into the famine in Bengal and Orissa. This commission is quite independent of the special commissioners Messrs. Dampier and Cockere ll, a pp ointed by the govern , meat of Bengal.
