FRANCE. (Isom A isexassroxopurr or rna puny Paws) PARIS, SATURDAY BTRICINO. Galipeami eui the following account of an acci dent to M. Thies: "A person pulling before his house, in the Place St. George, beard moans proceed ing from inside the garden. He rang the bell, and entered, and on ping to the spot from whence the moans proceeded fouud M. Thies lying on the snow. He had, it appears, slipped, and in falling had broken his arm at the wrist. He was carried into his how, and medical aid was immediately pro cured. It is hoped that he will promptly recover from the accident." The &eels announces that M. Dupont (de l'Eure) is so dangerously ill as to leave scarcely any hope of his recovery. At the Bourse some heavy discounts frightened the speculators for a fall in the Itente, and occasioned an upward movement. The Three per Cents. were at one moment at 66.93, but dropped a little afterwards, and closed at 66.80, with a rise of 15c. Railways, with few exceptions, closed from 1 to 2.50 lower.

PARIS, SUNDAY EVININO. We read the following in the Constitutionnel : Various reports have circulated regarding considerable reinforcements, composed of troops of the Imperial Guard about to premed, it is said, to the Crimes. Aecordiag to information which we have region to believe correct, the re inforeements is question will consist of tie following hoops: 1,200 men of the regiment of Ciendarsurie ; 20 companies of Grenadiers (10 from each regimeat); 24 companies of Vol tissue (12 from nob regiment) ; 4 companies of Foot Ches sman. These °ampules of 0 rinadia rs andVoltigeo es will On mist of 100 men each. The tstal infantry force (illeinliTO of this Gendarmerie) is 5,600 men. The cavalry will consist of 4 squadrons of the Guides, 200 mrn in each aquadrcn. As soon as this news wee spread in the barracks it produced an iadeacribable enthusiasm. Should it be confirmed the de parture will take place at the beginning of the month of March. The forces now in Paris or the environs will not suffer soy reduction in consequence of the de parture of the Imperial Guard. The army of Paris, now composed of two divisions, will be augmented to three, two of which, we are soured, will be encamped at St. Maur. The battalion of Sepeurs Pompiers of Paris (the tire brigade) will be increased from five companies totem. A cuipaay of 100 men of this battalion, commanded by e eaptaia sad two oaken, is under orders for Constaatisopk, to manias both UNTO and in other plum in the bast when the army km anagazinee, a service of order sad safety which will protect thou from is.cendiaries. This company will leave is a few days. The above paragraph is generally understood, and was, I have little doubt, intended to be understood, as a forerunner to the announcement of the departure of the Emperor himself. As I mentioned on Wed nesday last. rumour connected the march of the Guards with the voyage of the Emperor, and fixed Februa►y 27 for the former event. The anstau ticmnel in now fixing the beginning of March as the probable date of the departure of the troops goes a long way to confirm the original news. The slight hesitation in the language used corresponds exactly to whit is said about the present state of the Em peror's personal protect. Everything is prepared— orders are given hourly as if the expedition were positively resolved upon, and yet people about the court continue to say that the realisation of the scheme yet depends upon contingencies. One of the contingencies in view may possibly be the taking of Sebastopol in the mean time by the forces already before it. Several of the last despatches speak of the fire of the besieging force as being about to open. I attach, how ever, more credence to the despatch which represents General Pelissier as having reported that the assault could not be attempted with hopes of success for a month to come. This, coming from General Peliesier, who is supposed to have received a confidential communication from the Emperor very recently, is a fact of considerable significance. It seems to point to the probability that the attack will be delayed till his Majesty's arrival. M. Thins is not thought to be in danger, but I learn from one of his personal friends who visited him yesterday, that fears are entertained that ampu tation may be necessary. TRIAL OF MDLLE. DOUDET. The Court of Assizes of the Seine has been for se veral days occupied with the trial, net yet concluded, of Mlle.

Daudet declared that it was in consequence of being re proached with giving way to practices to which all the children, she said, wen addicted. Drs. Tardier, Jobert de Lemballe, and Logier deposed to the state of the body of Mary Anne after death. The au topsy of the body showed them en the back part of the skull a black spot, apparently caused bye fall, which meat have produced an internal effusion of blood. A WOillO, named Tessin, formerly the portrus at the Ciii Odiot, deposed that the children were most dreadfully ill-treated at Kettle. Daudet's. Whammy., the, MIMS into the porter's lodge and food was on the table, t►ey seemed to devour it with their eyes. The children were never pay and cheerful u children ought to be, and the whole five were scarcely ever seen playing together at the same time. . . . - - Mme. Poussielgue deposed that Zepherine amidst often eompliuned of the brutality of her sister, the prisoner, to the little Maredens. The Rev. Mr. Bradsball, • clergyman, brother-in-law of Dr. Maredee, gave an account of his visit to Paris to see the little Menden' on their father hearing that they were illtrested. Witness ems* to Paris in June, 1853, and although he called twice on Mdlle. El Airlet on the day of his arrival, be could not obtain admission into her apart ment. The next day he saw the children, and was horrified at their wasted app && c . Witness had 1 conver sations with the pri.lner, who gave him a dreadful account of the vicious propensities of the children. Witness, not placing implicit confidence in what she said, endeavoured ,to obtain information in other quarters, but, from not speaking French, experienced a certain difficulty in aeoom plishing his purpose. Be learned, amongst other things, that the governess so far departed from ell the received rules of propriety as to think nothing of flinging at the children whatever object might happen to be nearest at hand. It was the following feet that put him on the trace of her habits in that respect: Dr. Marsden had given the children a very handsome Bible with silver clasps, and on witness finding it all spoiled, and the leaves t.rn, he remonstrated with the girls on their ill-use of it. They, in order to exonerate themselves, informed him, though with evident unwillingness, that it had been spoiled by Mdlle. Deudet thro log it at their head. Witness explained to the court the result of tome inquiries which he had made in the family of Admiral Elliott, where the pri soner had lived as g ; sbe was there considered to eccentric as to lead to the idea of • commencement of mental alienation ; and there, as in the present case, she endea• warred to set the various members of the family against each other, sad accused any of them that displeased her of some act of improper conduct. . . The widow &pert, aged 50, living on her property, de posed that she knew the prisoner and her sister. The latter frequently complained of the great severity of the prisoner to the little Marsdens, declaring that she not only best them cruelly, but deprived them of a sufficiency of food. Witness spoke to the prisoner en the subject, and learned from her that the declarations of the sister were quite exaggerated ; that she pursued the Eoglish system of education, snd that when once her sister left the house, and no one interferon with her (the prisoner's) plans, everything would go on in a superior manner. At law, the sister left the house, bat the &active, far from improving in appearance, became absolute skeletons. Witness feeling much for the pone children often sailed to seethe. and found them always dispirited. When they played aboiat they were so week that they could seareely run by the side of their hoops. Witness at last, being more and more affected by the state of the children, wrote to Mlle. Doadet, remonstrating with her on her con duits, and beseeching her to change it. This letter was read in court, and the witness was compli mented by the president on the very proper feeling which it &stayed. vier& oath( r witnesses were heard, and all confirmed the evidence already given of the prisoner's cruelty to the children. lime. MeUrge, deposed that Zspherine Doudet had eilim p_laiiied to her of hit sister's conduct to the little Mawlinir. The children were in *scent-et health when they arrived is Paris, and everybody admired them ; but it was soon reported in the neig ihaurhood that they were shamefully beaten and half-starved by their governess. Whoa Mary Anne Weise seriously ill witness beard Zopherine Doudet exclaino—" God grant that she may live, for if she dies my sister is undone." The prisoner ►srs declared that this deposition was stains of ii.s. Tessin, formerly porter of the Cite Odiot, depcsid to the wretched appearance of the children, and th 3 reports in the neighbourhood against Mlle. Doudet were so notorious that more than onee persons have came to hie lodge to inquire who was the woman that behaved with such cruelty to the children plead under her charge. When Dr. Marsden was expected in Paris, Mdlle. Doudet came to witness's lodge and said—" The father of the children is going to atria; I am uneasy about the bad state of their health caused by their vicious propensities ; I hope that you will support me." The prisoner likewise denied the truth of this deposition. Mine. Hooper deposed to the dreadfal state of the chil dren, and stated that ones hearing several reports concern ing the conduct of the prisoner towards them, witness went to remonstrate with her ani was shocked at seeing the children look so ill. The eldest, Lucy, not having appeared, witness pressed Iddlle. Dundee so earnestly to let the child come down stairs that at last she consented, and witness was horrified at seeing her look quite like a spectre. Wit ness finding how the children were treated wrote to Dr. Marsden to inform him of the situation in which she had found them. _ _ _ Mmes. Bides, Parrett, Masao, Bonnet, and Cbardonnet deposed in a similar m as to the shameful treatment of the children by the prisoner. Wile. Daudet declared that all this testimony we. false and had been concocted amongst the witnesses to ruin her. Dr Tessier, of Pule, who visited the children by direc tion of their father, said that be had found them in a deplorable state of leanness. Mdlle. Doudet told him posi tively that they bad brought themselves into that state by • abineful habit, which was inveterate, sad in which May indulged with a sort of plasm. The witness was emalignaded en hearing the children sonless in the most 'cymbal. umeencerned manner that what was said was quite Inlas. He advised a moral treatment, and the endetiego of a im:nister of religion. He also resew sedffisdlgemasotiee; bet he strongly objected to the INNS eesselee etsees.

Witness—Oh, I never! that la altogether false. Madesohelle Zeehiriae Daudet, governess, aged Si, at protest residieg at Pierrefltte, deposed to her liviag for six moathe with her sister when she broaght the Menden chil dren to Paris. The children were, she maid, difficult to manage, aid she benelf had aseertained that one of them, Emily, was addicted to vicious practices. Dr. Marsden himself had mentioned to vitiate aid to her sister the pro pensities of all the children. Witness could not state any on. thing which her sister could be reproached wit► in her mode of briagiag up the children, except perhaps a little extra severity. Witness had not left the house because her sister ill-tre►ted the children, but because a change of air was prescribed for her own health. Witness spoke to any person whatever about her sister, as ill-treating the Wickes. Never said that she did not give than enough to est. N aid that her sister beat them. Here the wares. witnesses who h id d.pceed se to the confidences of the witness to them repeated their declara tions, to which the witness penisted to giving s most posi tive contradiction. Some letters from the childrsa to mitring were here read, in which they speak most favourably of the prisoner, but the style was so different from what a child could be sup posed to write that witness admitted it to be her opinion that some one must have dictated them to the writm. When asked whem she suspected, witness declared that It must be some of the Marsden femily. Emily Meriden, being wain called in, deposed that the letter written by her bad bees dictated to her by Millie. Daudet at the Cite Odiot, but that by her directions it was dated from Chaillot, where witeess's aunt lived, in order to lead to the belie f that it had not becidietated. The prisoner denied positively that she had ever &stated the letter en question. Thls closed the ease spinet the prisonar. Her own wit nesses sad the addresses of counsel are still to come on. The proceedings were then again adjourned. NAVAL AND MILITARY. Blinn .... -.- Firs Hardy Hone The Neptune, 120, selling skip, Captain F.

IL Gyps at loyal THE SIXTY.THIRD (110 X • Much attention hating been lately excited by the fearful losses experienced by our regiments in the Crimea, more particularly in the cases of the 48th and 63rd Regi• meets, the latter of which has been all but annihilated, will you permit me, through the medium of your journal, to bring to the notice of the public a short narrative of the history of that corps for the last few years, leaving it to your readers to draw their own deductions therefrom. Oa the morning of the 13th of September, 1846, the 63rd regiment, then quartered at Secunderabad, East Indies, wee paraded outside the barreek-square by its commanding officer. Under orders for England, its term of foreign egr et.* having expired, it Lad a few days previously bees re• viewed by the brigadier commanding, w►o ►ad expressed to its gratified lieutenant colonel, in the highest end most Bettering terms, his satisfaction, not only with the soldier like bearing and steadiness of the men under arms, but with the internal discipline and interior economy of the Corp., adding farther some expressions of regret at losing the services of a regiment the privates of which had never been seen (as was eometimu the ease) intoxicated shout the cantonment. Well, oa the 13th September, 1846, the 63rd Regiment, then mustering over 1,000 strong, were paraded by the commanding officer, a man who had entered that very regiment as ensign, bad followed its fortunes from England to Spain, and from thence to India ; who had, passing through ever, intermediate grads, attained the posi tion of lieutenant-colonel, and who had , during its whole period of Indian service, asked for leave to visit Ragland. A finer or steadier body of men were perhaps never Ken, end its two Sank eemosoies may even yet be remembered as being, in particular, the admiration of every one. To proceed —on this oceasion they were assembled to be informed that during the three succeeding days the usual volunteering would take place—thet is to say, every man who would sell his right of return to his native country would, on his passing the ususl medical examina tion, receive a bounty amounting to about 31. in exchange for his renewal of foreign service. The day following, an officer being rent by government to superintend the proceedings, whim duty it was to see that none but men of good constitution sad good conduct were admitted—that is to say, none bat the - picked men of the corps—having arrived, the volunteering commenced, and as a preparatory step, all military discipline being declared at an end, the gaud. room was shut up, and the sentry usually placed over the canteen to prevent drunken men entering was removed, the canteen being thus thrown open ; and further, the officers were directed not to enter the barrack rooms. I will not attempt to describe the scenes that took place in those three days, the barrack-square filled with knots of men fighting and quarrelling ; hers some three or four men pounding away at some obnoxious comrade ; there two or three more pulling along the senseless body of some intoxicated companion, they not in a much better state them selves; men rushing out of their barracks into the square, some without trousers, others without shirts, some literally with out clothing, cursing, swearing, blaspheming. Let the reader merely imagine to himself a number of men suddenly released from strict discipline, while a plentiful supply of money was given them, and he may, perhaps, realise the Deena In the orderly room men were crying and sobbing with drunkenness at being rejected; their former character not being good enough to authorise their being accepted, while others, who had received their bounty, might be seen stag gering across the barrack square, totally unconscious that the silver they had received as the price of their self-expa nistion, was slipping through their half-closed fingers, and rolling about in the dust at their feet. I dare sot dwell more fully on these sickening details, continuing during three days, during which many men who had no wish to volunteer had done so while intoxicated, while many others who had from the first intended to do so, had n , from the same cause, been able to drag their tottering limbs se far as the orderly room. The volunteer ing wee at length over, the reins of discipline were gra dually tightened, and the government had gained the pro longed services of some 320 men, while the wages of their self banishment had been spent at the government canteen; but the consequences were not yet over. During the remaining stay of the 63rd Regiment at Secunderabad, the hospital was crowded with their sick, ■s many as 24 patients often waiting the daily arrival of the surgeon ; the com plaints being dysentery, diarrhcoa, and delirium tremens, while every evening saw two or three funeral parties slowly wending their way to the churchyard. To make a long story as short as possible, we will follow the regiment to England, where it arrived, having lost many men during the march by the same sickness, and on board the head-quarter ship alone eighteen men during the voyage. On its arrival the oldest soldiers were invalided, and the skeleton of the regiment directed to do garrison duty at Chatham. The men having about three months' pay due to them, their commanding officer bearing in mind former ex amples of the kind, repeatedly requested leave to expend part of the superabundance in necessaries for hie men. This not being allowed, the men received their arrears, at the same time about 260 raw Irish recruits being drafted into their ranks, It moat here be borne in mind that the officer superintending the volunteering having received only the men of good character, few remained to serve as guides to the uninstructed recruits now waiting them ; en the contrary, money being pleatiful, the worst example wan set before them. The pay issued was again vent at the canteen, the men were incapable of performing the duty required at their hands in a strict garrison. A few months mince they had been encouraged to spend their money at the government canteen, now they had not forgotten the lesson. Court-martial followed court-martial, the crime being invariably the same, "drunkenness when for duty." Often both district and regimental courts-martial sitting at the same time, and being occupied daily with the same crime, heavy imprisonments followed. Next came an inspecting-general, who blaming most severely the same regiment which had a few months previously received the highest praise, not only censured, but punished both officers and men. In the meantime the corps being weak, what with volunteering, invaliding, punishment, and deaths, the recruits were pushed rapidly forward, and formal to take their duty in the ranks ; and I. the April following, after being quartered in London and to Deptford, they wen finally ordered to Manchester. Hese they remained merely a month or two ; then proceeding to Newcastle-es-Tyne, sad the whole regiment broken up, furnishing detachments to Sunderland, Carlisle, and Tyne mouth. Few of the old non-scounisaioned oaken remained ; some bad been reduced to the ranks, others invalided, many had volunteered, while ens or two had osnamitted suicide. The consequence of then detachments of recruits mixed with a leaven of old, sad, for the most part, rejected men, wader newly-drilled officers and newly-prometed sergeants, far away from the Mann of the regiment head-quarter staff, was soon seen. A riot ensued at Sunderland, the police was attacked, the town was in poesenion of the men of the 63rd, and the mayor barely escaped with his life. • general court- martial ensued, the Inhabitants, alarmed, having prayed for the removal of the detachments. Many of these half-drilled Irish boys were sentenced to yens of imprisonment, and after two years' sojourn there, the 63rd left Newcastle-cm-Tyne. The usual routine of Irish service followed ; the metal detachment duties followed by a short consolidation of the whole corm at Dublin, the only place where the regiment had, sifter some years' service at home, any chasm of righting itself. The war broke out, and the 63rd was ordered to the Crimea. At Inhuman its lieut.- unt-eohasmi was killed gallantly fighting at the bead of his men ; several of its officers fell fighting at his side ; one of its maim was shot, his dying hand still grasping the colours of his corps ; the Russians were beaten back, the 63rd gallantly doing its duty. Bat where are those gallant men new ? What my our journals ? The 63rd Regiment, or rather the remains of it, marched on the 21st to Bak- Wan, there to embark for Scutari or Malta. It left the Fourth Division 30 strong, every Maar, regimental staff, and all hands included (scarcely a rafficient nowt for the solemn) ; after land's, in the. Crimea 970 strong, and " having sham received a draft of thirty nun, there was one sergeant to represent the Grenadier company remaining out of 120 men." RETURN OP DISCHARGED SOLDIERS TO THE ARMY.

BIRMINGHAM, SATURDAY. Yesterday a very important meeting of banker*, mrested, werchants, as ma told nufac at t urersthe end other pe she on t rson sffreted or in te Town-h a ll, subject of two bills now before parliament —one introduced into the House of Commons by Mr. Keating and Mr. Mullioga, entitled, "A Bill to Facilitate the Remedies on Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes by the Prevention of Frivolous or Fictitious Defence', to Actions Thereon the other ' which was int ro d uce d end carried through the House of Lords by Lord Brougham, being designed " to permit the Registration of Dishonoured Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes in England, and to allow Execution thereon." The varied interests of the town were very fully represented. Mr CHARLES SHAW, banker, merchant, factor, and manufacturer, presided. Mr. Henry Edmunds represented the Midland Backing Company ; Mr. T. A. Att wood_ (Spooner, Attwood, and Co.), Mr. Jas. Lloyd (Taylor and Lloyd), and by proxy or o th erwise all the other banks in the town were represented; lilt. Alderman Van Wart headed the merchants; Mr. Alderman Baldwin, and Messrs. Cornelius Goode and Hide., the manufacturers; Mr W. J. Beale and Mr. J. Money, solictors, concurring with the originators of the meeting in the determination to oppose both bills, attended in that spirit. Bend's these, Mr. Ald. Hodgson, Mr. Arthur Ryland, Mr. Councillor Cutler, and other gentlemen, were present, and took part in the discus sion. Mr. W. J. BEALE explained the nature end provisions of the two bil i s. Fi rs t, t h at o f L ord Brougham's, io which power was given to any holder of • dishonoured bill, after eight days rep istration under the registrar appointed by the Court of Common Pleas, to take summary execution unites upon affidavit a judge could be satisfied that there were good grounds fora &Gime. According to the provisions of the bill, too, a record was to be provided, open to all parties, of all bills so proclaimed. The other bill promoted by Messrs. Keating and Mulling+ had the same object in view, but the process was different, the ordinary forms of the law were not to be set aside, but in cases of disputed bills security was to be given for the payment of the bill and costs Mr. ArtrmrsOrt, • manufacturer, was of opinion that no objection meld be entertained to the proclamation of a dishonoured bill; and he said that in his opinion the bill of Messrs. Resting and Mulling. would only have the effect of increasing expenses : for the sake of economy, he was decidedly in favour of the Scotch law. Tee Cnatattrar replied that his experience had shown to him that the Scotch mode of procedure was by far the most expensive. A creditor in this country, before any proceed ings could be taken in the Scotch courts against a debtor there, must employ • deputy to act for him, and give him security for all the costs incurred—a very expensive process, especially in the event of • failure. EDMUNDS, of the Midland Bank, remarked that the question of expense was not the real matter to be con sidered in discussing these two bills. The question really was the opportunity which either of these bills would give to one creditor (possibly a pretended one) to obtain an advan tage over another, or a bona fide creditor. If either of these bills passed into • law as they at present stood a bill might he drawn at three days' date ; in six days from that time the bill would be due, and in fourteen days' time oce creditor would take possession of everything. In his opinion it was unjust and wrong for the law to be the means of enabling one creditor to obtain a preference over another; it a man was to be broken up lot his assets go to his creditors generally. The commercial public did not want either of these bills; they would protect Je ws and die-. ceunten only, and were highly objectionable. To interfere in the manner proposed would be to injure commerce ; because it would restrict commerce; especially on looking at the immense ametuit of bills in circulation and the com paratively few that were dishonoured, it had been shown that no interference or restriction was necessary. (Hear.) Mr. BLANEY remindej the meeting that the force of • judgment under Lord Brougham's bill would have as much force as • judgment obtained alter • trial. In fact, it came to this, that a judgment by confession would be incontrover tible; indeed, it the bill passed, it would operate to an ex tent and with a force and r ffect not to be obtained by any procedure of our law in existence—that he was aware of. Mr. SALT said the bill might fairly have been called a bill for the speedy destruction of creditors, and for facili tating fronds. Thos CHAIRMAN said that, as a banker, ho was opposed to both bills, because they were not required. After twenty five years' experience, be could safely say that he had gone into court upon bills more than six times. He agreed anks n w ei a no4fcw rawni c g h pbo been int s to ck w s thrown bs a k sha m efu l i as the a ltwayt, disgrace•ende to th e th pres e n t ta he t t he tslb:i d ifficulties itut.. e Mr All Hodgson, Mr. Ald. Baldwin, Mr. Arthur Ry land, Mr. Ald. Munton, and other gentlemen, afterwards ; addressed the meeting, all concurring In the objections , which had been raised against both bills, both on the grounds of the new machine,: which it was proposed to ' introduce end the facilities that would be Worded to I dishonest debtors to give • preference to relatives or other parties not bona fide creditors. Mr. DIARTINEAU expressed his surprise that these bills should have been introduced at sll ; none of the great towns in the country had asked for any change; the bills appeared to have originated with the lawyers in parliament, and al ' though he had no desire to impute motives, it appeared to him as if the purpose was to promote rascality and restrict the circulation of good bills. Looking at the immense surmount of bills circulating in the country, very few indeed were dishonoured; there was nothing to justify any such harsh measure as was proposed, and the commercial com• tenuity might *stair be left to take care of itself. After some further discussion, the following petition to parliament was adopted : That a bill is now pending before you honourable house, !untitled ff A Bill to facilitate remedies on bills of exchange and promissory notes by the preventim of frivolous and fi ctitious ciefenees to actions therein." - 11 C year petitioners view with great diagatisfection and alarm the provisions of the slid WI. by which it la proposed to confer moo sumgmay meallise es the holders or bills of exchange and promiasory notes. end igabedt le your honourable house that evil. would be sub stitutad by oath sa emestateat ot a far greater magnitude than those witiebdis intended bkredesso. a Tot be all reeent rehear and alterations In the commercial law el thiscountry it has bow Um uniform policy of the legislature to en. demur to prevest ofol poobh collodion - toad fraudulent preferences between echoes all siodlon. awl,la Noe of the inability of • trader to meet his ek to helm Moot an early and to ensure an equaldistri es jpguperg simewpt all his creditor; and espe tid cially to roe/a lois ow merit osoosftio in the hands of an Moll. ih n sigrovielont of Ult. bill an overius bill of eschange or preinasory will have all the torso and effect of • secret security 'Tellable is eight days against the property and person of a trade. writ, rides gift gan undue advantage to the creditor whose bill or note hipper lobe Ant dishonoured, will sake a trader by a collo. re arrangers* with a friendly or fluidly creditor, to procure his property to be away, and a fraudulent preferroe to be obtained over all Ilia saw areditan.

The Lord Lieutenant and the Counteen of St. Ger mans held a drawing room last night; and, whether owing to the severity of the weather, or to certain anticipated changes in the political atmosphere of Lublin Cut* of which the frequenters of the Irish court are known to have a very sensitive perception, the attendance was unusually scanty. The names sparsely fill one column of a Dublin paper. A statement received in Dublin yesterday, that Lord John Russell had been invited back to re-enter the ministry, created the utmost excitement. It fully confirmed the general feeling that without Lord John no liberal ministry can stand ; but not a few expressed their fears that his lordship would not abandon the important mission which he had undertaken for the sake of propping up any cabinet. Rumours of change in the Irish government are very rife. Lord St. Ger mans and Sir John Young will take their departure without leaving behind the smallest amount of re gret ; and among those spoken of to succeed by far the most popular are Lord Carlisle and Mr. Horsman.
