Witness read a letter dated 16th 'armory last, fr. in Admiral B.,aer to Lord linglaa, which state) that whilst he had b-en at Constantinople no complaints bad been made to him of the arrangements he had made fur landing the sick, and that he had used the utmost exertions, personal and otherwise, to see to the comfort of the sick os their arrival in the Bosphorus, end to expedite the landing. He also pu: in a letter from the agent of transports at Constantinople, stat ing that the delay, if any, in the sick and wounded getting to the hospital after arriving in the Bdsphorus was due, out to any mismanagement in the landing, but to the diffi cull of procuring men to carry them away to the hospital, alter they had been landed The wharf at Balaklava had been partly constructed, though not com pleted, when it was washed away by the great storm of the 14th November. The harbour-masters at Balaklava is sue ! cessn.n were Captain Heath, Captain Hens, Captain Die rem, and Captain Powell, until the 29th Jasuary last, when Admiral Boxer was fervid from Constantinople to Balaklava, and undertook tke management of the harbour Ts the Chairman—He was not aware what induced Sir James Graham to transfer Admiral Leer from Constan tinople to Balaklava. To Lord Seymour—Vessels were detained at Balaklava from the insufficiency of storehouses on shore, arid the crowding of the ships rindered it more difficult to keep the barb -Br in a pr Ter state—which difficulty was augmeoted by there being no current in the harbour. There was hut small accommodation for invalid suldi, rs at Portsmouth, an.. it was the wish of the authorities at the Horse Guard, that the invalid troops arriving in this country thouid be lauded at Chatham, where there was greater accom modation; but many of the ships which brougot home invalids had, from their size, been unable to disembark them at Chatham. He was nut aware of any peculiar circumstances which had occasioned delay in land ing invalids that came to Portsmouth; but if there had been any unreasonable delay the naval mine:int. ndent there would be to blame. About 3,000 altogether it the naval brigade were kept on shore under canvas in the Crimea. They were led on beef and biscuit, the same as on board ship, which they themselves carried from Ballds's, where they had a store of their awn ' to their camp, a distance of about six miles. He did not know that any complaints had been made to the Admiralty of the way in which they bad been fed.

Theo sum her of large steam veisela now employed in this amiss wee 113, and the number of sailing vessels 103; their total teenage 99,958, and staff of officers and men 9,600. These were the vesseb actually chartered, bat there were other. employed in addition. Previous to the Admiralty taking ep the management of that @envies, the sleeks la the elf oe amounted to fire at one time, and tea at another; but, sea. sequoia, on the premium of the war, they now amounted to forty, and who at first were strangers to the duties they bad to perform.

The Council sat three hours. .... , ....•••••nn RI , OMNI •InicAlM 1,11,11111•Wp stating that, as the markets had fallen , the Admiralty consi dered a reduction should be made ; and a redaction was made to 40,.; but in July the markets rose again, and 504. per ton became the ruling rate for the large class of steamers. It was preposterous to suppose that coal could have been included, for their use in the Bosphorus and Black Sea, and government accordingly formed depots at Gibraltar, Malts, and Constantinople. The Admiralty had to alter many of these vessels, and he considered that the price charged them far so doing was excessive; and when he told one of the contractors that he thought 15 per cent. was very nigh and that it ought to be 10, he wet told that by rights it ought to be 20. The price for fitting was considerably higher in Liverpool than in the Thames, because they worked night and day for two months. Steamers belonging to the British North American, the West India and Peninsular and Oriental Companies were chartered fur mails and postage, but smaller vessels weer employed for the postal commucication, getting the same pay as if the larger had been used ; but there was an actual loos to the owner, because the small vessels could not take passengers. Lord Seymour—Considering the large amount of money espended fur transport service during the past year -3,000.0001.—w0u1d it not have been more economical to have purchased these vessels at once f—No doubt it would have been more economical to have purchased these ls out right, but then it would have put us in this position, that we had nut the means of manning them, and great difficult was found in doing this f or th e fl ee t i n the B alt i c and Black Seas. They would have had to bring these vessels into the government dockyards which were lull and overworked. 'the question was well considered by the Admiralty Board and Sir James Graham, and it was thought desirable not to do it. It would have been an anomaly for these govern ment vessels to be manned by private individuals. The Chairman—But did not that anomaly nist in the case of the Prince, that went down T—Yes. The Admiralty were obliged to pay the rate of wages charged in the mer chant • . All the transports were fitted with boats for the landing of troops, horses, and artitlery. There was one landing boat to each ship, beside her owe boats. A large number of boats were c , nstructed at Malta, and pontoons and boats at Constantinople. to consequence of complaints made in the department, returns were ordered to be made by the senior and commanding officers as to the proper per formance of the service, the regulations for which were reed by Captain Milne aed put on the committee ri cords. When the Admiralty chartered vessels for the transport service, the owners undertook to aupoly the troops. In coil sequeneeof complaint about the Treat and Kangaroo, t" e Admiralty caused inquiries to be made, and had power to inflict a fine on the owner of the ship if there was any irre gularity or lesufficiency in the supply of stores. Several utaer cases bed occurred in the course of the last.lS mont.is, and the Admiralty had refused to pay the money. The charter party gave the Admiralty this power. Specific sailing orders were also issued to the captains of all transport vessels going east to the East, to act as a check on the delivery of stores at Scutari, and placing them completely under the authority of the rear admiral in the Bosphorus. These were issued, but not until Dec. 2, in consequeace of the Admiralty hearing complaints that the masters of vessels had nosed Constantinople, their peeper destination, and had gone 011 to the Crimea. The Prince, the Robert Lowe, and the Mantis, were amongst these. With reference to the recommendations of the commission is inquire into the conveyance of stores to the East, some of them might be feasible, but others were im practicable. The master and mate of the Robert Lowe were changed on going out from Portsmouth, but it was not reported to the Admiralty. If the crew did not know of their cargo, it was the fault of the owner. Every vessel was bound by its charter party to have an authority on board to give on arrival of the ship in harbour an account of the ship's cargo. The Chairman—Ought not the Admiralty to have taken notice of this breach of the clisrter party ; and is not the Admiralty answerable fur not having done so ? —Yee, cer tainly. if the Commissioners reported they ,found that owing to the changes in the officers of the Robert Lowe and Prince, it was doubtful whether any on board knew where the stores were stoned, he (Captain Milne) was of opinion that they mull have known where the stores were placed. lle did not know, when they were asked to land the medical stores, they answered they did not know where they were; and, as tar as he was concerned, and beyond what was stated in the report of the Comminioners, the Admiralty were in absolute ignorance of any such thing having hap pened.

L ••rd Seymour reminded the Chairman that he had laid that statement before the ow:mimes on Friday when the rum was cleared. iaisaioners—that a cargo-book should be kept—he did not think thrtrequirement so necessary with regard to govern• merit vessels as it was with the ordinary merchantmen, w here the charseter of the cargo was more vaned and helocging to many individuals.

Toe Chairman—When the Prince was lost, had the Ad miralty to means of knowing what was lost in her ?—The Admiralty did not know what the Ordnance put on board, but could ascertain it through the Ordnance. He doubted the ezpediency of the recommendation of the commissioners that whenever there was a sufficient quantity of a particular cargo to fill a vessel it should be an exclusive cargo. In his opinion, a properly assorted cargo was best for carrying on warlike operations. He could not say whet& r the occur rence was a transaction of the Ordnance that some portions of iron bedsteads were sent out in one vessel and some in another, and that ultimately they et. (Laughter.) It was certainly devisable that the legs of bedsteads, to he useful, should meet the bedsteads themselves. The captain of tin transport could n•at consider himsa 11 re sponsible for stores it they wrrs not packed under his own superintendence. Since December the medical b.,ard had had five steamers at their disposal, for the con veyance of medical stores. He was not aware of any delay of 45 days caused to a transport vessel from Ireland. The Simla was detained at Constantinople, but the public did nut a ay whenever a vessel broke down. The 'resew sent out with the huts to Balaklava were detained, which caused a considerable ice ease in the public expenditure. About 35,000 tons of stores were sent to Balaklava, and there was a delay in the delivery, from there being no means of doing it. Lord Seymour—And were not the troops in consequence suffering seriously from privations on the one hand, and the public, from the enormous expense, upon the other?— Yes, lie did not think that the appropriation of steamers to tow the store vessels would have been proper, unless the steamer was bound that way. There had been no disposition on the part of the Admiralty no economise expenses as regarded the efficiency of the transport service. The Chairman—Did you never receive from the autho rities abroad any statement to the effect that they were in want of transports 1—No; and if that want arose, it did not arise from the Admiralty. Admiral Boxer was in thief command in the Buspherns. Hs was furnished with a staff, and an of f icer who was his right-hand man, and who had been throe veers employed in the Turkish service, and well knew the Esse, but who was subsequently sent to the trenches, it being thought, from his knowledge of gunnery, that he would be useful in the Crimea. The Aiimirslty found fault with A mantel Boxer for this ; and this officer returna d tut a oho t time and was promoted, but suose quently another was appointed in his place; and he (Capt. Mbar) did ant know what had become of him now. Lied Seymour—Did you ever hear from Admiral Boxer th it he had note sufficient staff to perform his tisane ? lio complained in the month of August, and particularly' eliuda d to toe want of labour. The Admiralty then sent nut ' the Harpy to be attached to him, and he was empowered to employ labour for tee coaling, &c- Admital Hour stated, in a communication to the Admiralty, that he applied to the ambassador to secure him a coal depot, but the request n , old n 4 be c•.mplied with. Since then he informed the A-gni- r..lty that he bad i.b.aiard stor age for 16,000 tons of cal ; th al the storekeeper had in hand 13,000 tons, and that more could be purchased; nod that a total of nearly 100.000 tons had strived from England, but that colliers in the Darda nelles had been win -bound. The obstruction to facilities for coaling was subsequently obviated by the crews of her Ma jesty's vessels beluga:employed a. extra wages, and he was not aware it had been brought 'o the knowledge of the Admi ralty that considerable delay had taken place in the coaling of the different steamers. It it had been stated in the journals, under the head of " Chaos at Balaklays," that a vessel was sent to purchase horde and shoos with a cargo of them actually on board—(laughter), the Admiralty were not aware of it, and from communications he had received • from the authorities, no such trensseuon had occurred. If the military authorities required a vessel for hospital pur poses, by informing him of it, Admiral Boxer hadautne rity to furnish at, and there were three or four vessels applicable to that purpose. Orders were sent out by Sir lams Graham to the Commander To Mr. Layard—He took it for granted that the statement had been received by the committee. Mr. Layard told Sir Charles that if his statement bad been received by the committee it • ould have been c.im municeted to the public by the gentlemen present repre• renting the public press, wdeich would have rendered it un- Deemer, for him to send it to the Tinter. Sir Charles Trevelyen said his object was to convey to tte public a comet rep tation of what he really said. Layard said in putting the question to the Duke of Newcastle complained of by him (Sir Charles) he had quoted Sir Charles's very words. S.r Charles Trevelyan—But you did not quote my ex planation in my accord answer. If I have committed an irregularity, unconsciouely. I make my submission to the committee, and regret that I have done so. Mr. Layard—Have you been attacked in the public press for that question of mine or for your answer ?

THIS DAY.—Two o'CLoar. The Stock Exchange being closed to-day, business in stocks and shares way be said to be suspended. MONDAY Evans.. Owing chiefly to the prevalence of a gloomy view with reference to the operations against Sebastopol, the English funds opened fitly this morning, and soon experienced an uninterrupted fall of per cent. Subsequently a partial rally set in, the quotations received from Petrie, though lower, not confirming the very unfavourable rumours circulated here, and prices at the close of the Stock Exchange ruled about per cent. lower than on Saturday. At a later hour the mark-t was again rather weaker in tone. The attempt on the life of the Emperor of the French was referred to as aggravating the unfavour able tendency. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes closed to per cent lower than on Saturday. In the face of absence of success at Sebastopol, of the attempt on the Emperor's life, aid of the list) of y per cent in the rate of interest on Trench Treasury Bonds, this bourse may be said to display great steadiness. At Vienna the Austrian funds show little change, and the exchange on London remains stationary at 12.24, but the premium on gold aid silver has de chord to per cent. The other continental stock markets are dull. Consols opened at 884 to 1, fell to 881 to ' and were quoted at 4 o'clock 881 to for money and the 10th May. Subsequently the quotatien was 881 to 1.

In the certificates issued by the Spanish Bondholders' Committee fur the half of the coupons left unfunded at the last conversion there was also an unfavourable movement of about 1 per cent., consequent upon the announcement that the pr tition for the recog• nition of these vouchers has been rejected in the Cortes by a majority of 168 votes to 5.

Hospital appear to interest the public, you will perhaps find spsco for a few remarks frism on. who is neither a pertissa of the almoners nor of Dr. Jacob. It is, I think. much to be regretted that the Duke of Cam bridge should have allowed himself to take a side in the pre sent dilnite, since it was will-known that the governors at large were much divided in opinion, and as president he will be milled upon to conduct the proceedings with an impar tiality hardly ti ha expected from a partis in. The conduct of the stamen In soliciting, or even permitting, his integer once ammo den ruing of censure. With regard to the dispute between the almoners and Dr. Jacob, it is to be regretted that discussion should have deg ted into personal squabble, and that the interests of the heep!tal Mould be mined from the want of temper and conciliation exhibited by each party in turn. Giving' the almoners and Dr. Jacob lull credit for the best inten tions and wishes to promote the efficiency of the school, it is impossible to deny that the real question between them was, which should be master. It must be recollected that at Christ's Hospital the children are not only educated, but also boarded, fed, and clothed at the expense of the hospital, and that comsat qnently mach which in other schools is subject td the es pervision and interference of the parents, is in this case managed by the authorities of the charity. It is needless almost to icy that the duties involved cannot be safely delegated to any pia officer, and that masters, stewards, dames, and whoever has the charge of these children. must be made toted that though the parents can seldom in• mkt*, there is come authority which will permit neither neglect nor tyranny. There will abeam therefore, be au amount of interference on the part of the governor., or of the committee appointed by them,:lakely to belittle agreeable to Dr. Jacob. Ou the other h nd, the almoners will probably find that th e rest of the governors will iniiat en treating the reaponsi• bility so much talked of as • reality, and that it will no longer be possible to obtain the assent of a general court to resolutions the purport of which cannot Ise understood with out an explanation, never volunteered, and only obtained by dint of questioning. It is probable that • yearly report of the state of the hoepital in general, and of a variety of parti culars now e•.mmonly a mmuoicated by the euanspers of charities to their eubieribers, will be required. The gover nors at large will then be better able to judge of the efficiency of the systim and of the authorities and officers by whom it is carried on. The governors at large would do well to consider whether they are doing as much fur general education as lice in their power, and whether by a change in the system they might not both benefit those who are gratuitously educated, and at the same time enable persons of limited means to give their children a good education at a moderate price. No else of the community, probably, are less able to do this than small tradesmen, clerk'', ani others, who, though Rime mere want, are yet struggling for their daily bread. The educa tion to be obtained at the national schools is insufficient for the children of such persons—that of good schools is pro bably far too en 'naive ; that which they do obtain is often indifferent in quality, and, for their rank in life, costly. Such person', however, might well afford to pay IS much as It now coats the hospital to bring up a child; and by adopting the system successfully followed in our public . . . . schools—that is, of permitting children not on the founda tion to share in its ben.flta by paying for them—great facili ties in educating their children might be afforded to a very numerous elem. Such • change would involve the necessity of dividing the present school into several distinct establishments, the number of which would, of coarse, be regulated by the suc cess of the plan, for if the children paid for bore the isms proportion to those gratuitously educated, u those paid for do to the foundationers at good public schools, the whole number would amount to several thousands. But the ex periment might be tried on • more limited scale by con verting the upper grammar school into a distinct establish ment, to which the Mari) promising boys might alone be sent, and wherein they might be retained longer than is now usual, provided their progress justified such • favour. They would be selected for removal to the upper grammar school at a publ , c examination, and their retention there would be determin-d by their sue:en at subvilutnt ez311116 ations; and thus would be secured not only the efficiem y of the upper grommet school itself, but also that of the junior establishments. Nor can it be doubted that to such a school, giving a sound education at a moderate ;nice, many would be re idy to send their children. Another point worthy of consideration, and on which the governors at large are as faulty as the almoners, if cot more so, is the qualification of the children admitted. At pees/ or, the children of parents whose property does not exceed 300/. per annum are not refused admittance, and a life income of even greater amount does not exclude. Tois c - n only be justified in a charitable insti , ution on the ground that edu cation for such persons is anreasonahly dear, and thi, excuse would be taken away if, by the means suggested, neap education could be obtained. In truth, a man rising is the world with 1601 a year, is much better off than one who is slaking, but has 3001. a year left ; and the money test is found to be altogether nugatory. Could the governors be persuaded to adopt orphanage, either of both parents or the father, though many might be excluded who could be with propriety received, yet none would be resolved who ought to be excluded, nor would then be say lack of applt cants.-1 am, &c , Bedford-hotel, Brighton. ♦ GOVERNOR.

The advance on imports is most felt in the article of cotton. Instead of some millions of ponds, the importa tion of ordinary years, iu 1854 only 900,000 ponds were im ported, and many mills are @terming still fur want of raw material. rim WEST RIDING REGISTRATION.—The annual meeting of the West Itidiag Registration Association was recently held at Norment a.
