The asiveentm of the new theory in our system of naval defence will have reason to congratulate them selves on the result of last Saturday's proceedings at Blackwell, as the punctuality and success with which our first great iron war ship was transferred from the stocks to the water, were a credit at mice to the commercial ahipwrights of this country, and to the particular firm, the Thames Iron Company, to which this great national work had bees entrusted. The public, taught caution by the mis haps and delays of the Greet Eastern launch, had not been at all sanguine, and, as usual, the croakers had an abundance of reasons ready to show—firat, that the launch would not be attempted • and, secondly , that if it were, the I c e : and a thousand other canes would be sure to make it result in failure. The very mention of the term " hydraulic ram" was a basis upon which to frame a whole host ef m isgivings founded ou the sad ex xrience cif Millwall, but it was forgotten that in the case of tho Great Eastern the ship lay broadside an to the water, whereas the Warrior stood in the old but more judicious position, stern on, with the regular incline and t he reforegave the rams mach less to do in driving her on to her "native element.* Indeed, had it not been for the frost which hardened the grease on the way., and gripped everything in its icy embrsoe, the Warrior would have slid dowil the iodine in ordinary fashion like any other well , &ulckphip if her toms., but the direc tor liren Clelnpany l li taught wisdom by the es parto...d Ike& nerediews, determined to leave nothing W shame, an hence the unqualified suc rasa of Saturday's operations. L Although the day wasone of those stefully cold ones in which the frost often indu lges, when a coming south wind has given it notice to quit, the interest of the proceedings, both national and me clumicial, attracted a very large crowd of visitors et high and low degree to Bow-creek. The Blackwell Railway bad a busy time of it for two or three hours previous to the learnt', , and when at last we leaded in that strange territory in which round F to which you want to go is " just the corner," but takes a sou* of miles walking Ito reach, we found the blank, dismal roads r and faint converging towards the ship-yard oovered 'with pedndriturs, who were loud hi their ackurration of the hews= but beautifully proper nosed vessel The hull, perched high upon cradle, seemed to be almost within reeili, but as y?t, thanks to the admirable an d plan of the city of Blacktrall, kept a very porta ble distance betvreehit shalt' • admirers. net of • the tall chimneys of the neighbourhood had, be let out for the day and were crowded by entliseindic ama teurs in shipbuilding, who could be seen in the aerial distanceldowing their fingers and waiting patiently for the interesting . 'come when the ss,gnal gun was to "Minoru:oe th e 'tart. ing of the marine Colossus. the premises of the Thames Compact, O* slips, ways and workshops, -being built on both-sides of low-creek, allowed of that ancient and leil-known estuary being made available for the 'fins! plume* of the ship, thus avoiding the obirtruetiens of the Thames. All round - its shores were crowds of anxious apse tators, and the huge bailee which. across ore a ferry made many voyages. The Wrinkle looked splendid, agreeably disappointing penises • who had cows down. especting to see a huge shapeless . 4 ' steam ram," bristling with iron plates, and who to their ear. prise /Mind a noble ship built on the finest lines, and exhibiting the mast elegant 'cons, look ing as the nautical men . not half her tonna'', so perfectly symmetrical was she in fans and cline. As the Warrior was an administra tive child of the late government, it was to be ex pected that some of its members would be present [ to witness tie (igen of their o&pring. MeV Jolui Pakington was there, and qv 000 r d Colonel Knox, and some half dozen of lb friends. The Lords of the Admiralty present were Sir Richard Dundee and Captain Frederick, and in addition we recognised Messrs. Penn, Saumcia, and several other gentlemen more or lees con ' nected with marine engineering. As far as we could judge by appearances, the arrangements for the launch were, with the exception of the "rams," pretty much as usual in large ship yards. There was a platform at the stern for the Lords of the Admiralty and the more distinguished visitors, and galleries near the bows for the rest of the company. Punctually at the appointed time the "dog shores" were struck away, and the hydraulic rams commenced their operations. This was a very anxi ous time, as for nearly ten minutes after all ob structions had been removed, the Warrior seemed to be obstinately bent on taking her rest for some time longer. The rams strained their hardest, the people on the ship's deck commenced running backwards and forwards, and a gun was fired in the vain hope of starting the grim monster from its repose. It seemed as if it was going to be ano ther Great Eastern affair, and the croakers, who "knew all along how it would be," were again vociferous, but the last persuasion being applied, in the shape of immense cables run out at the stern, and taken in tow by three powerful steam tugs, the Warrior began to move, at first slowly, and with hesitation, but gradually increasing its pace, until it had got about half-way down the ways, when with one majestic sweep it plunged bodily into the water, where th e next moment it could be seen floating as gracefully and as buoyantly as a swan. All the hopes and fears of architects, contractors, and shipwrights for the last twelve months were now set at rest, Captain Ford and his brother directors drew long breaths, and the croakers were silenced—at least for the present. Every one said that she was a beautiful ship—and so she was—and that she would "knock the Gloire into lucifer matches "—the most modern metaphor for naval destruction, which we hope she may do if the occasion should arise, and we were ourselves of opinion that the contractors had turned out a very elegant and complete piece of work, which, if it take the water as naturally when the ship has got her iron jacket on, will certainly be a most war like and weatherly sea-boat. We have only to add respecting the launch that the baptismal ceremony was performed by Sir John Palungton, being the first time that this particular branch of sacerdotal duty was ever entrusted to one of the rougher sex. The right hon. baronet no doubt looked upon the Warrior as his own child, and wished to send her out into the watery waste with his own paternal benediction. This is not the place to enter into criticism as to the fitness or unfitness of the great ship for the work she is intended to perform, but the account of her launch would be incomplete without a few detail/ as to her sine cost, and oonstruction. The shell is built entirely of wrought scrap iron. The keel, or portion to which the ribs are bolted, is formed of immense slabs, 3 feet 6 inches deep, and llin. thick ; the ribs which spring from this are wrought iron T shaped beams, made in joints of bit. in length by 2k in deptili. They are placed 3ft. gin. apart, except for a distance of 10ft. on each aide of the keel, where they are bolted at half this distance apart. The main and upper decks are of iron , covered with timber, and the orlop deck is of timber. The decks are supported by rolled wrought iron girders of enormous strength. Along the entire length of the vessel, from stem to stern, there are solid wrought iron beanie placed at inter vals of bit inside the ribs, and these again are strengthened by cross girders. The bows and stern of the ship are divided into twenty-oven water-tight compartments, and are shut of from the engine reom and fighting part of the ship by wrought iron transverse bulkheads. As the armour is not in tended to cover the whole of the ship, these com , partments will afford increased security. They ; may be riddled by shot in every direction without affecting her safety —nay, even were the bows and stern shot clean away, the centre would still ramie a floating battery, 2101 t. in length, 27ft. in depth, and 53ft. wide. The armour of the frigate amends of plates of hammered iron four inches and a half thick. The tests applied to the plates furnished by the builders [of the Warrior were of the most trying character, as shown by the effects on the Sirius. Some plates were fired at with 68-pounders, at 200 yards distance, and were literally cut in half by bells fi red one after another on a line drawn on the surface, each ball striking immediately below its predecessor. Upon some other plates the ball made a circular indentation nearly as deep as the plates, exactly of the form of the projectile, and as though a mould had beset taken of it in some soft and yielding substance. It was only after repeated trials that it was decided that the plates should be of =nettled scrap iron. Only one row of the plates i has yet been fixed on the vessel's side ; it is on the lowest tier, and level with the water line. The weight of the wh ole c' a of the plates would have been little short of 1,000 tons, and it was considered ad visable not to add this weight to the ship before launching, lest it might strain the vessel on the way er For the purple of obtaining a high rate of speed, the bottom of the ship has been made narrow towards the keelson ' Instead of having an wren floor as in the esseof the Great Eastern, and in the int) part there it a vast amount of material in the shape of overhanging bows, figure head, bowsprit, and other matters. In the case of the Oloire there 111 no figure-head, and her Lena foam as .hares, angle with the level of the water, similar to our own smaller gunbeata It was origiaally proposed to give the Warrior the heavy rig of an eighty gun ship, but it is said that upon a re-consideration of the kinkiest it has been decided to follow in this respect the barque-like rig of the Gloire, the Meg jack and Mine yards being dispensed with. Her exact length over all is 420 feet ; between the per pendiculani, 380 ; breadth, 58 feet ; depth, 42 ; tee nage, 6417 tons. Her screw engines are to be of 1,250 home-Fewer, and the gross weight is expected to be, with boilers, armament, &c.,10,000 tons. The lines upon which the vessel is built are exceedingly fine, both fore and aft, and it is anticipated that' she will make 14 knots as hour ; so that, assuming the performance of the Globe has been correctly reported, and that she really made 134 knots, and, not miles, the Warrior will still be a faster vessel. The port-holes of the Warrior are 9 feet above the water line, those of the (Moire are, it is said, only 1 6 feet, and in a rough sea could not be worked. This is a very important feature in favour rof our frigates. To this the fact must be added, that id the r;:lor and the Black Prince there will b 4 no with .respect to unsemoned or unsound timber ; and the effect of the shot will not tell upoff them so severely as is the case of the plated woqden ships of the French. The Warrior I has been tflout twelve months in building, and' her cost, *ken ready for sea, will be somewhere about a million starlit& NUNNROUS INIPWROW AND LOSS OP LIPN At two &cloak yesterday morning the French sloop Jean %Skits, with a valuable general cargo from Dunkirk to Chefbourg, came ashore under the South Pbre• Lod Light ; the wind, which was a perfect gale, was driving dead oath* rookie ; the saiitain was drowned, the crew mired.

Almost immediately after this a crack was heard, one of the hinder wheel' having evidently broken. The carriage then fell down on one aide, and both windows fell in, and with every revolution of the broken wheel, the bumping now became tremendous. It was soon apparent to all that unless assistance could be speedily the most serious couthosences would result, the carriage threatening to come to pieces every moment. The puthogers cried out with all there might, but without effect, and gradually • great portion of the carriage was smashed to pieces, the flooring of two of the three compartments at length falling through, and precipitating, amid the shrieks of the or repents, several of the passengers en the rails. As the planks of the flooring rose and broke, and the other portions of the carriage came in contact with the metals and the ballast, everything had the appearance of being on fire, there being sparks flying about. One after another others of the passengers last their hold of the framework of the carriage to which they were clinging, and were cast upon the road. In all eight were thus severely dealt with, the remaining thirteen saving themselves from a similar fats by clamber. big into the may compartment which remained entire and clinging to the various portions of the carriage which yet held together.

The English press has nobly raised its voice in condemnation of the outrage on the rights of huma nity committed in the case of Count Ladislaus Teleki, both by the Austrian government in de manding his extradition, and the government of Saxony in surrendering him. The case is too shocking not to raise a general indignation throughout the civilised world ; and I think it will be a matter of national satisfaction to the English public to be reminded of the fact that the principles set down by the English government in a remark able precedent are in perfect accords/see with the sentiments of public opinion on the subject. I say so on the authority of the Blue-book presented to Parliament on the 28th of February,.lBso, respect ing the Hungarian refugees. After the sad catastrophe the put an end to the Hungarian war of independents in the month of August, 1849, a great number of Hungarians and Poles sought refuge on Turkish territory. Austria and Rums, elated by success, and backed by large armies partly drawn sip on the frontiers, partly stationed in the very heart of the Danubian Prin cipalities, demanded the extradition of the (28th and 29th of August, 1840). Sir Sra u r e ord Canning (despatch No. 3, Sept. 3, 1849) thus wroth to Lard Palmerston :—" On grounds of hu manity not unmixed with considerations affecting the Porte's character and future policy, 1 have not hesitated to advise • a deckled reline= to the viand of extradition." " k was happy to learn from Genend Aupiek that his news of the matter were entirely similar to my owes? "The couch met on the 30th August, and decided that the Porte could so t, without dishonear, give up the re fugees.' On the 4th of September Price Radsivil arrived at Constantinople with an autograph letter from the Czar Niche/as to the Sultan, couched in very strong tlle, demanding extradition of ref ogees, and t a lu g .i• Russian and Austrian• ambassadors du. Blared that the escape of a single Keftigee will be taken for a declaration of war.--Or Stratford Canning to Viscount Palmerston, No. 6, Sept. 5.) lap to the 16th September (No. 11) the question had assumed not only a serious aspect, but a cha racter of immediate urgency. Russia and Austria were determined toobtain possession of the refugees their representatives, prepared to go the full length of diplomatic intimidation in order to force the hands of the Porte, had sent iii official mites, repeating their previous peremp tory demand, and suspending their diplomatic I relations with the Porte from after that. evening, unless a categorical and satisfactory answer were given in the meantime. Sir Stratford .Canning, whilst acknowledging that "the demand was too seriously entertained to warrant any linerr of conduct in resistance to it, not formed in con templition of the worst," informed Lord Palmer ston that " he would have thought himself highly to blame had be concealed from the Porte his con viction that by submitting to the imperious de mands they would dishonour themselves and their country, and violate the common principles of humanity. The French minister, .General Aupick, entirely concurred in these views, and both deter minedto support the Porte in what they consi dered to be a question of humanity, right, and bencem. At this juncture of affairs the Porte submitted some queries to the English and French ministers, with the declaration that upon the answer would very mush depend the decision of the council. The fourth of these queries was :—" If Russia were to deolate war, in What way would it be regarded by England and France, and in that case could the Poets count upon the effective co-operation of those two powers ?" To this query Sir Stratford Can ning and General Aupick Answered that "it was to ha presumed that the two governatesta i w l t il & condemn the supposed conduct of Russia, and would not leave the Porte without support, should it be necessary." Upon this the Sublime Porte insisted on their re fusal to deliver up the Hungarian and Polish re fugees, The Turkish government at the same time instructed their minister at London to say to Lord Palmerston that the Sultan, having exposed himself to serious risk in order to preserve his honour and to remain faithful to the laws of humanity, the Ottoman government in no way doubts that the I English government will hold itself ready to afford it, in case of necessity, moral and material support. Lord Palmerston on receipt of this communica tion apprised Sir Stratford Canning, on the Gth of October, that her Majesty's government unhesi tatingly complied with this request of the Sublime Porte ; that they will immediately enter into com munication with the French government, in order to concert a common course of proceeding ; and that with a view to guard against possible accident, in structions will at once be sent to Admiral Sir Wil liam Parker to go with his squadron to the Darda nelles, to be ready to go up to Constantinople upon the application of the Sultan, to assist in defending the Turkish capital or territory from attack. In fact, orders for these instructions were sent by Lord Palmerston the same day to the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty. At the same time Lord Palmerston conveyed the sentiments and wishes of her Majesty's government on the subject, through Lord Bloomfield, to the cabinet of St. Petersburg, and through Viscount Ponsonby to the cabinet of Vienna, in a despatch, from which I literally ex tract the following : "If there is one ruk which more than another has been observed in modern times by all independent States, both great and small, of the civilized world, it is the mile not to deliver up political refugees. 27is laws. of hospitality, the dictates of humanity, the general feelings of mankind forbid rich surrenders ; and any independent government which by its own free will were to make such a surrender would be deservedly and universally stigmatised as degraded and dishonoured." These measures and instructions were communi cated to the French government, which entirely concurred in them, and, already on the 11th of 'October, the Marquis of Normauby reported to Lord Palmerston that instructions were sent to the French squadron, which was then at the islands of Hyeres to proceed towards Smyrna, and to put itself in communication with Sir William Parker. The English and French governments having thus energetically supported the Sublime Porte in resisting the not less inhuman than inso lent demand of Austria and Russia, the result wan, that these two governments desisted from their demand of extradition. With this precedent thus established, the prin ciples of international law regarding the subject of extradition of political refugees thus clearly and emphatically assorted, and thus energetically main tained,-both by the Fegliell and French govern manta, it is to be legitimately expected that, true to their own antecedents, there governments will, with equal determination and energy, maintain the principles of international law and the rights of humanity, so outrageously violated in the person of Count Ladislaus Teleki, both by the Aus- trian government, in demanding his extradition, and by the Saxon government in acceding to it. In fact, Lord Palmerston having himself declared that any government which were to make such • surrender " would be deservedly and usivereally stigmatised as degraded and dishonoured ;"—I esm not see how, consistently with her honour and dig nity, inland could continue to remain in friendly diplomatic intercourse with any government branded with the stigma of that degradation and dishonour. True it is Lord Palmerston, in declaring the non extradition of political refugees to be *rule univer sally acknowledged throughout the civilised world, added the proviso, " unless a state is bound to ex tradition by the positive obligations of • treaty." But well did his ladahip remark, in addition, that [TWOPENCE. 1" such treaty engagements are few, if indted any such exist." (Despatches to Lords Bloomfield and Ponsonby, Oct. 6, 1849.) In fact, what stipulations may from time to time be concocted in secret between Haps burgs , Bour bons, and others like them, of course nobody can tell. But secret stipulations contrary to the general feelings of mankind to the dictates of humanity, and to the acknowledg ed principles of international law, can have no pu blic value whatever ; nefther dare any of such conspirators against the rights of humanity appeal publicly to such secret stipulations in support of the extradition of political refugees, while as to public treaties stipulating for such extraditions, I dare assert, without fear of contra diction, that no such treaty exists in modern times —not one. Hence it is that Wheaton, having with diligence inquired into all the existing treaties respecting the subject of extradition, lays down the following as an incontested principle in his "Elements of Inter national Law" (Part IL, chap. 2, sixth edition, 1855) :—" In the negotiation of treaties stipulating for the extradition of persons accused or convicted of specified crimes ? certain rules are generally fol lowed. The principles of these rules are that a state shoald never authorise the extradition of per sons seemed or convicted of political crimes. Treaties of extradition do not apply to political offences." In reality the gross outrage on the rights of kunmaity of which thagoTarninents of Austria and &lorry eland eonvieted by the mammal opinion of the civilised wand—the first for demanding the extradition of Conti Ladislaus Teleki, and the serf ad for baselysubmitting to the lawless inhuman demand—l say this grew outrage on the rights of humanity, instead of being extenuated, receives only as additional a. ...atlas from the futility of the plea which, is dee of facts and. of common sense, they dare be put up. It is said in the official orgasm of Austrian bru tality and of Saxon dishonour that the Saxon t was bawd to. surrender Count India •Eserleinleenlo. to Austsia—let, in tante of its federal obligations established by the Federal Diet. of Germany ; 2nd, because a special treaty exist& between Austria and Saxony stipulating for the ex- tradition of criminal', concluded on theleth No *ember, 1/114, and published by a miniaterial decree January 10, 1865. • Now, that strange antiquated oompound et human.' nonsense calliel the Federal Diet of Germany may have] passed, and may pass, most astounding regu lations with regard to their own subjects, but )ount Ladislaus Teleki is not a subject of the Germanio Confederation : heisailingananyend everyssehool boy throughout Nowt knows that Hungwy nei ther does nor Iverdid term part of -the Girmanio Confederation. And ea to the treaty of extradition of 464, it is a base absolute faltehood to metend that there is a single word in that treaty which by any strained interpretation could—l will tot say jitstifi.—but in the slightest degree extenuatn the base offence of either demanding or accompliehing the extradition of Count•Ladislaus 'ldea • In the case of 114 - 9 above cited, there was at least an ambiguous expresaion in an.ancient tasty, the treaty of Belgrade of 1739, which, exhumed from amongst the dust of the past,. Austria'could set up as a pretext to serve her truculent purposes. The eighteenth article of that treaty contains the stipulation that " henoeforward it shall be unlaw ful to afford asylum to rebellious and discontented subjects." Nevertheless, Lord Palmerston, true to the humane principles of modern intesnational law, categorically rejected that plea, with. the declara tion that it would be a strained interpretation of that article tb construe it to apply to the officers and soldiers of the Hungarian armies who have been fighting for the constitutional rights of Hun gary against the armies of Austria and Russia" But in the case of Count Ladislaus Tsleki, not one IWord of any treaty, whethermicient or modern, aux be invoked to serve as a pretext. Saxony, to use the very words of the English Government, is " deservedly and universally stig matised as degraded and dishonoured;" but what shall we say of Austria, which not only accepted but demanded, nay ordered, that extradition—demanded and ordered it after 11 years had passed over the graves of the noblest and best patriots of Hun. whom she bad basely and cowardly murdered, and over the heads of thousands whom she drove into exile, or left to languish in her loathsome dungeons, for defending the rights of their coun try ; after eleven years she still recurs to her vengeance, and that too at the very moment when I trembling on the very verge of the abyss of ipst retribution she would fain make the world believe that, repentant of her past crimes, she awns to restore to Hungary those same constitutional rights. But we may trust that she will not be allowed to trample with impunity on the rights of humanity ; that she will not be allowed to disregard the• in dignation of the civilised world, to which her very existence is both a nuisance and a disgrace. . . I have reason to believe that the Emperor of the French has already caused an earnest remon strance to be addressed to the Austrian goveranient on the subject; and I trust that the English government, true to its own antecedents, will not be found behindhand in asserting the forced those principles which, eleven years ago, England was the first to declare and foremost to maintain.

Stuns FOR VoLuwrzeits.—The want of large covered spaces for the drilling of volunteers in the even ing is much felt. It is difficult to find buildings sufficiently spacious, and the cost of erecting them has been beyond the means of moat corps. Captain Fowke, R.E., has lately constructed a shed at South Kensington for the use of the let Middlesex Engineers, which seems to have solved the problem of economy. The shed is 90 feet long by 40 feet wide, and about 25 feet high ; it is made of wood, without framing, covered with felt and oil canvas. The cost has been only 82!., which has been paid by the Volunteer Engineers out of their own subscriptions. A large meeting is to take plane on the 12th Jennary at the South Kensington Museum in aid of the Building Fund of the Lambeth School of Art, and it is proposed that thin occasion shall be taken to ex hibit this drill shed to the public.
