Not on English politics, not on the necessity of reducing the Army and Navy Estimates, nor on the sufferings and merits of the Lancashire sufferers. It was on the war, and its causes and results, that these otherwise almost perfectly harmonising political brothers had to agree to differ. Mr. SCHOLEFIELD had, like every one at first, thought the secession of the Southern States "an act of incredible folly." He had never doubted their moral right to secede; 8,000,000 of people had such a right. He did not think that their success - would rivet more firmly the fetters of the slave, and he thought we should consider the question just as if slavery were not connected with it. The conduct of the North in making it a war for the Union, not against slavery, in his view jus tified those who, with Lord RUSSELL, regarded it as a war of ambition. Such were Mr. SCHOLE FIELD'S principal statements, and it will be seen at once that all their force is due to suppression of one side of the ease altogether. Perhaps, knowing that he would be followed by so able an advocate of views nearly opposite to his own, he felt re lieved from the obligation to give the other side. Certainly no two opposing counsel could ever address a jury as better personal friends. Mr. BRIGHT would have almost preferred not to have to speak at all, than to be obliged to differ from one with whom he was so uniformly in accord. However, there he was, and he must do his duty. A great part of Mr. BRIGHT'S defence of the North was an argumentum ad patriam, in regard to England. If the North went to war when Fort Sumter was sttecked—a Federal, not a Southern fort—we must remember our readiness to go to war when two men were taken out cf the Trent—an apparently lighter cause. What would England do if only Gibraltar were attacked by the Spaniards —a fortress which Mr. BRIGHT, like Mr. GOLDWIN SMITH, considers to be perfectly useless, except as a nest for patronage. What would we do if any attempt were made by any part of our vast empire to sever itself from the mother country ? What have we done in the case of Indian insurrec tion ? In this rather telling appeal Mr. BRIGHT seemingly forgot that our leading statesmen have most of them professed willingness to accept the demand for colonial independence if the colonies made it. Those larger colonies which have legisla tures of their own—and which, therefore, come nearest to the United States system of Sovereign States in Federal Union—well know that they are at perfect liberty to "secede," as the South calls it. Notwithstanding that the greater part of Eng lishmen, with their leading statesmen, ieel no inclination to what they term " dismem ber the empire," yet we question whether even those who least wish it would for a moment oppose a general demand on the part of any of the non-military colonies for nationa, independence. The best appeal to our practice at home would be in reference to Ireland. Probably nothing would induce our statesmen to consent to its separation from Great Britain. Yet it contains as many whites nearly as the Southern States, and if Mr. SCHOLEFIELD be content to rest the jus tice of the Southern demand for independence, as he seems to do, on the national numbers of the sepa- ratists, then he must explain why he for one would not listen to the all but unar.imons voice of Ireland when its millions demanded the Repeal of the Union. They, then, asked less than the Southern _ _--- States, and by a l mos t as many voi ces. -- Mr. SCHOLEFIELD is prepared to recognise the Slutb. We rather wonder he should be so, since t he unanswered and unanswerable letter of His TORICUS, known law to be by one o f our fi rst c i vil yers, has shown that we have not a single pre cedent for doing EO in such baste, unless we meant to intervene by !Vice, end in our o wn settle the wh o l e b us i ness way. But Mr. BRIGHT evidently car ried the sympathies of his would, we thi n k audience with hi m, and , carry the sympathies of any English audience, in refusing ge really to recognise a Re public tad in langu a ge publio Wu" blasphemous I makes slavery, for the first time in the world, the foundation and corner-stone of its sys tem. We are pleased to hear Mr. BRIGHT at last speaking out on the subject of slavery as he now does. We could not doubt his views on the subject, but we have often regretted that, before the present disruption, he seemed always afraid of irritating the Americans by allud ing to the subject. Now that the slaveholders are separated by their own act from the non-slave holders, he no longer retains any, such feelings. He can speak of slavery as the one " huge foul blot upon its fame, a hideous outrage upon divine and human law," and so forth. We are glad that the conduct of the South has liberated the tongue of our great orator to say what we could wish he had done while these same slaveholders were really governing the whole country. We quite agree with the hon. member, however, in regarding the Southern rebellion as one for slavery, and for nothing else. However long the North may have felt itself not justified in violating the common constitution of all the States in regard to slavery, however slow it may have been to declare war against slavery itself, as not warranted to do so, it is notorious that the South began and has persevered in its rebellion for slavery and nothing else. To the very last the Virginian deputies would have made terms with Mr. LINCOLN himself, if he would have conceded the right of the Slave States to take their slaves into the free territories of the United States. So demented were they for slavery, that though no one proposed to meddle with it where it existed, they plunged into war merely to secure a right to blast with negro bondage all the yet free soil of North America. Mr. BRIGHT is, we are sorry to see, but a pro phet of woe for Lancashire. He sees no proba bility, at least for a very long time to come, of the restoration of its prosperity. He entered, at con siderable length, into the question of cotton supply, and showed how slow, as he considered, would be the increase of supply from other sources. The quantity in America, which we could now obtain, he believes to be small, and differing from Mr. SCOLEFIELD, he believed that there would never be again a orop of cotton grown in the States by slave labour —never one which would be re garded as available to meet the wants of our manufactures. India, he considered to be our only trustworthy reliance, and he condemned without mercy the neglect of so many successive Govern ments, whom he had in vain attempted to arouse on the subject. The only proposal he had heard of at all feasible, was made by a very old landowner and cvltivator in India—it is to exempt for five years, from land tax, all the land employed in growing cotton ; it is represented that the stimulus thus given would be enormous, and the loss to the Indian Revenue would be made good by the revival of trade in Lancashire. Mr. BRIGHT'S informant believes that the measure would be suc cessful, speedily successful, and the relief complete. We should not be surprised if the five per cent. on the Manchester goods imported into India, through the money spent there for raw cotton, would quite recoup the Indian revenue for an➢thing it might suffer. Apart from such a supply created by vigorous measures in India, our Orator prophesies very gloomily. He believes " that the misfortune which has unhappily fallen upon her, will entail ruin on the whole of the population, and that it will gra dually engulph the smaller traders. It might for years—he did not say it would, because what was not impossible might always happen, it might make the whole factory population of Lancashire almost entirely worthless"; this is, indeed, a dark picture. We are ready to find relief against it, if only through trusting to the unforeseen chances of the future. But we have better grounds of hope. We think our Government will surely act more vigorously yet in India, and we also hope the end of American slavery is so near, that all over the cotton-growing countries it will become known that the old monopoly of supply is over thrown for ever. Then, at last, we should see numerous places as well as India turning to the work of supplying the mills of Manchester. It is fear of full blown slave cultivation resuming its course speedily in America, which has checked the growth of cotton by other countries. The political situation just now noticeable hroughout Europe is rather peculiar of its kind. More or less the foreign policy in vogue upon the Continent is of a laissez alley character. The juncture being tided through is appa rently, by universal consent, one compounded of a series of complicated postponement. Question after question is passed by, or is glossed over as— for the time being—inconvenient. The Italian Question altogether, for example, we have seen very recently set aside, in a manner, as —not yet to be answered. The solution will come in time, but not yet. Again—disintegrating that rather complex and complicated whole—regarding the Italian Question not in its entirety or totality as a Problem in any way admitting of instant solution—severing one after another its component parts, the spec tacle brought to light in each instance, at every turn, is in a manner indentically one of the self same character. The settlement of the Roman Question—the core or pivot of it all—is given, by universal consent, for the moment, the go by, dis tinctly, admittedly as a very riddle of the Sphinx. Insomuch, that upon the inauguration of the Ministry brought together but very recently in succession to RATTAZZI'S, the newly-nominated Prime Minister of King VICTOR EMMANUEL, almost we might say ostentatiously guards himself from being supposed to give any sort of pledge, directly or indirectly, that he as yet sees his way to a removal of the difficulty. The Venetian Question, moreover, is quite as avowedly shelved or cushioned, as a problem of which a solution has yet not been discovered. The Quadrilateral is still garrisoned by its German soldiery, the patriot army of the Italians grimly casting glances askance at their past, possibly at any day their present, certainly at some period not yet to be very confidently predicted their future foes —all along that strongly guarded frontier ! The Neapolitan puzzle that is, as to the possibility 1 1 of retaining the northern and southern king dom, or province, shall we say, of the Roman peninsula, bound together, by that thin line of union along the Marches constituting still their sole point of union—as narrow a band of union, in its way, as the fleshy bands of the Siamese Twins, or to take, more reasonably, a geographical illustra tion than an anatomical illustration as the isthmus of Panama linking together the Northern and Southern American Continents ! Continue to maintain the Temporal Power, so far as it may be said to remain still intact at Rome, under the guardianship of the French soldiery, and it must ever remain dubious how long, if, in any way much longer, Mt. huge Southern province of the King of ITALY'S straggling and incomplete dominion can be held loyally, in obedience to his Government, far to the North yonder at Turin. Why, iu effect, Italy is by necessity kept iu a transitional and ,nsecure positio❑ as the sixth Power of Europe so long as this confused state of things between Naples and Turin continues to keep open on the one hand the hope, 9 f 4 pourbon and the hopes Muratist Restoration. As things are at present, it is always by necessity a heartburning to the pride of the Neapolitans that their lovely capital has dwindled , into a very subordinate position compared with that yet held haughtily far away in the north-west of the Peninsula by Turin : a metropolis intrinsi cally with not a tithe of her pretensions (that is of the pretensions of Naples) to precedence. Florence likewise intermediately finds all this while her in clination baulked—Florence being held, by some among the politicians of Christendom to be a city, by reason of its geographical posi tion, of its topographical advantages, and of its political and social antecedents to be a very fair substitute, in its way, for the Eternal City, suppos ing that latter still to remain unattainable as the metropolis. Milan, too, once the glory and central point of the Austrian rule in Lombardy—Milan in her time, from having been the arena, at the dis tance of a thousand years from each other of the Coronation now in 800 of the Emperor CHARLE MAGNE, now in 1800 of the Emperor NAPOLEON the Great, each Emperor (as at Milan) the anointed King of Italy, crowned with the iron diadem, cry ing out before the world in defiance, Dieu me la donne gar a qui la touche ! Milan, the royal and the white cathedralled, ,has subsided from a promi nent, not simply to a secondary, but to a third rate or fourth rate position among the cities of Italy. It constitutes, in fact, to our thinking one of the most signal tokens of the vitality of the Italian movement in favour of Unifi cation, the restraining thus so long, and so steadily, and so calmly, by this province and that, by Lom bardy, and Tuscany, and Naples especially, of every imaginable jealousy. Naples, Milan, Florence— yielding (doubtless with a secret sense of mortified pride);reeedence, and priority, and supremacy to the more fortunate city of Turin—once no more than the capital of Piedmont, now the metro polis—for the time being at least—of all Italy, of the whole Italian kingdom ! Nay, the situation, ther, in the Roman peninsula is so difficult of its kind, is so precarious, is so wholly undetermined that Turin itself, hitherto and still among the cities of Italy the " cynosure of neighbouring eyes," and of distant eyes as well, yet itself is not without its poignant qualms of jealousy and of heartburnings. For —ever since Italy asserted her independence—has not the ques tion of Turin's precedence among all the principal cities upon the Italian soil been trembling perpe tually in the balance ? Has Turin not held its own simply, as it were, on sufferance ? Yet, in spite of all these incitements to disunion and jealousy of one another—Turin, and Milan, and Florence, and Naples —nay, far more than those cities themselves, the very provinces of which each is the respective capi tal, Piedmont, and Lombardy, and Tuscany, and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, have still held resolutely together ! In spite of the rashness of GARIBALDI—in spite of the trickery of RATTAZZI —in spite of the deadweight antagonistically of the policy of the French EMPEROR, in spite of the armed presence along the whole of the north-eastern frontier of the New Kingdom of the Austiian soldiers garrisoning the grim and all but impregnable fortresses of the Quadrilateral. In defiance and despite of each and all of these obstacles to the Unification, Italy has persistently remained as long as she could, she still remains as firmly and completely as is in any way practicable —unified ! That is her hope—the groundwork and guarantee of her hope—the fact, that provinces ap parently so alien to each other have still survived throughout the whole of this great national move ment, not simply in cordial alliance, but in com plete amity and union. It is this bond of sympathy that binds together so tenaciously and securely those otherwise distinct and separate rods of em pire making up the lictor's fasces that might be symbolled as borne before his Italian Majesty Xing VICTOR EMMANUEL. 7HE LATE PRINCE CONSORT. (From the Court Circular.) WINDSOR CASTLE, DEC, 18. The mortal remains of the beloved and revered Prince Consort were privately removed early this morning from the entrance of the Royal vault in St. George's Chapel, where they had been temporarily deposited, and conveyed to the Royal Mausolem at Frogmore. At 7 o'clock precisely, their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Princes Arthur, Leopold, and Prince Louis of Hesse proceeded to the chapel, where were assembled the Hon. and Very Rev. the dean of Windsor, the Rev. Lord Wriothesley Russell, Canon in Residence, Viscount Syd ney, Lord Chamberlain, Lieutenant -General the Hon. C. Grey, Colonel the Hon. Sir C. B. Phipps, and Colonel Bid duiph. Mr. Lolein and Mr. Mayot, the valets to the Prince Consort, also attended. The procession left the Chapel for Frogmore shortly after, and on arriving at the Royal Mausoleum the coffin was placed in a sarcophagus and covered with a massive stone, in the presence of the Prince and the gentlemen who had the privilege of being present on this sad occasion, when the earthly remains of the best of fathers and masters were consigned to their final resting-place. His Royal Highness and the gentlemen then returned to the Castle. The plaster cast of the recumbent statute of the Prince Censort, now being executed by Baron Marochetd in marble, was then placed on the sarcophagus. At 1 o'clock this afternoon her Majesty the Queen, ac companied by their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince and Princess Louis of Hes•ie, Princess Helena, Princess Louise, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, and Princess Beatrice, walked from Frogmore-house without any attendants to the Royal Mausoleum, near to which were assembled the members of the Royal household imme diately in attendance on the Queen and Royal Family, and a few persons who had been honoured with invita- tions to be present. The Dean of Windsor, when her Majesty, the Royal Family, and others, had taken their places, real a selection from the Holy Scriptures and offered a short prayer appro priate to the melancholy occasion. The Queen and Royal Family, after placing wreaths of flowers on the foot of the tomb, retired. Her Majesty, though much overwhelmed with grief, has been enabled to bear the trying events of these last days without any additional injury to her health. The whole of the household were afterwards permitted by her Majesty to visit the Mausoleum. Besides the members of the Royal Family, there were present—Earl Granville, the Dowager Duchess of Suther land, Countess Blucher, the Rev. Dr. Stanley, Mr. Arthur Helps, and (in waiting) the Duchess of Athole, Lady C. Barrington, Lady A. Bruce, the Hon. Mrs. Bruce, the Hen. Iforatia Stopford, &c. Lii - E BISHOPS 01 ROCHESTER AND NATAL. The following letter has been addressed by the Bishop of Rochester to the Bishop of Natal : My dear Bishop of Natal,—_l am led to address you with real sorrow, and under a painful sense of duty to make a request that you will not, under any circumstances, be in duced to take part in the religious services of the Church within the limits of my diocess. I have read and carefully considered your recent publication, with intense regret that you have been so grievously misled from the truths which you professed to hold at your ordination and subsequent consecration ; and I see no other course to be pursued for the protection of the congregations and parishes intru,tsd to my care than to submit this remonstrance against your officiating in any church of my diocess. Neither the inti • mation given in the preface of your book, p. 27, that you cannot comply with invitations to preach, &c., nor the con fidence which I feel that no clergyman with whom I am officially connected, who have road your book, would invite you to minister in his parish, supersedes the necessity I led for (his letter. In no other manner can I divest myself of the responsibility I should incur if I heard of your officiat ing in these parts than by a knowledge that I had emphati cally protest-cl against your doing so. I ought to add that it will not be possible to avoid some measure of publicity attending this communication, because it will be my duty to send a copy of it to my archdeacons for the information of the clergy.—l remain, &e., J.

CADIZ, DEC. 18. Intelligence received here from Havannah an nounces that the French have occupied Tampico without resistance. LISBON, DEC. 12 (via Franee). The Ministry have dismissed several more Cus tom-house employes. The proceedings of the Duke de Loule, who wishes to have his marriage with the Infanta Donna Anna officially legalised by the Government, thus making his son heir to the throne, in case of de fault, have caused much angry discussion in Lisbon, and given rise to bitter animadversions in the pro vincial newspapers. A terrific accident has occurred on the Eastern Railway, A train with materials and about 200 workmen was passing over the Bridge of Sor, when it suddenly gave way, and the whole were precipi tated into the river. It is reported that about 100 people were killed and many wounded. A change, or modification of the Ministry, is almost certain to take place. Her Majesty's steamers Warrior, Black Prince, Defence, and Trinculo are in harbour; the Revenge and Resistance have gone down the river to practice their artillery. The American corvette St. Louis is also here. Senor Salamanca has presented a proposal to the Government for the construction of a railway from Oporto to Vigo.

The Italian Government respectfully declines further negotiation with France respecting the Roman question at present. The Government entertains nneasinesss about the Emancipation Societies; they remain dissolved till a right of association is established by law. The Muratist party has been utterly unsuccess ful at Naples. Information from the Southern Provinces is re- assuring. The Government is preparing energetic mea sures against brigandage. TURIN, DEC. 18, Evening. In the Senate to-day the concession of the Sar dinian railways was granted to the firm of Semenza and Co., in London, with a premium of 200,000 hectares of land, and a guarantee to shareholders from the Government of 6 per Cent. upon the revenue. In the Chamber of Deputies the Committee of inquiry into the question of brigandage was ap pointed. Baron Ricasoli and General Bixio are among the members of the committee. It is believed that today's sitting will terminate the session. PARIS, DEC. 18. La France of this evening says : " The protecting Powers of Greece, in proposing to King Ferdinand of Portugal to become a candi date for the Greek Crown, stipulated expressly that the Greek constitution should be so modified as to allow the Sovereign individual religious freedom, provided the Greek faith were recognised as the religion of the State." VIENNA, DEC. 18. • The Session of the Council of the Empire was closed to-day. In his speech from the Throne the Emperor ex- pressed satisfaction that the confidence he had placed in the nation by granting the constitutions of October 20 and Feb. 26 has been justified. His Majesty hoped that the blessings of peace would continue to exercise a beneficial influence, and said " Our resalute progress in the path of peace has powerfully increased confidence in Austria's strength, and has gained her the sympathy of other nations. The Reichsrath has proceeded firmly upon the solution of its task, and has already passed important measures.' Basing the regulation of the Budget upon the principle that the resources of the country itself must supply its necessities, I am convinced that such a result will be brought about by an equal division of burdens. Commerce his already shown increased animation in consequence of the abolition of tran sit dues. The Bill regulating the control of the Reichsrath over the National Debt secures also the co-operation of the Legislature in supervising the expenditure. The new Bank Act has established the relative position of that institution to the State. The retrenchment of the expenditure has exercised a favourable influence upon the state of public affairs." His Majesty requested the members upon their return home to promulgate among their consti tuencies constitutional principles, with a view to their better accomplishment. The Emperor, in conclusion, took leave of the Deputies, thanking them for their labours, and hoping to meet them in the coming year. FRANKFORT-ON TIIE-MAIN, DEC. 18. In the sitting of the Federal Diet to-day the majority of the Committee upon the Federal Tri bunals recommended as advisable an Assembly of Delegates from the different States to be added to the Diet. The Committee also requested autho risation to submit further proposals to the Diet. The minority of the Committee, consisting of the representatives of Prussia and Baden, declined to adopt the proposition referring to the Federal Tri bunals made in August last. The Diet will vote upon this question five weeks hence. FRANCE. Galignani contains the following description of the visit paid on Tuesday by the Emperor of the French to Baron Rothschild, at Ferrieres :—The Emperor left Paris on Tuesday morning at half-past 9 for the Chateau of Ferrieres on a shooting excur sion in the grounds of Baron de Rothschild. His Majesty was received at the terminus of the Eastern Railway by M. Thouvenel, President of the Board of Directors, and MM. Perdonnet, Baude, Baig neres, Dollfus, and Sauvage, directors. The Em peror was accompanied by M. Fould, Count Wa lewski, Lord Cowley, Generals Fleury and Ncy ; and M. Thouvenel was invited to take a seat in the Imperial carriage. The train left immediately for the station of Ozouer - la-Ferrieres, where it ar rived in about an hour, the distance being about 20 miles. At this station the baron's equipages, in blue liveries and yellow, awaited his Majesty, who took his seat in an open carriage, with four blood horses and postilions. Five other carriages, also drawn by splendid horses, were placed at the dis posal of the guests. The baron's four sons were waiting at the station to receive his Majesty. At ) a quarter to 11 Me Emperor arrived at the I Chateau f and the Imperial flag was at once raised on one of the towers. After looking over the interior of the edifice, the Emperor took a walk in the park, where he planted a cedar to comme morate his visit, and then returned to the Chateau for breakfast. The service of silver plate, made from models which were immediately destroyed to preserve it unique, was accompanied by the cele brated service of Sevres porcelain, every plate of which bears an authentic picture by Boucher, signed with the 8,. At this table sat all the Baron's family and the guests. After breakfast a numerous shoot ing equipage awaited the guests, who proceeded to the great park, which covers 1,500 hectares (3,700 acres), entirely surrounded with walls, and contain ing three farms. The sport was splendid, and about 1,000 head of game were killed. On returning to the Chateau, about half-past 6, the Emperor found all the population of the environs assembled in the court-yard, headed by the mayors and cures. A collation had been prepared in the hall, the gallery of which was occupied by the male chorus singers from the Opera, who, under the direction of Victor Masse, executed the " Hunter's Chorus" of Rossini. At 6 o'clock the signal for departure was given. The keepers, huntsmen, and other persons employed on the domain, holding torches, lined the road for the Imperial cortege from the portal of the palace to the gate of the forest, which was also brilliantly lighted all the way to the station at Ozouer. His Majesty then returned to Paris, and in the evening, accompanied by the Empress, honoured the Opera Comique with his presence to witness the I,oooth representation of Boieldieu's opera. THE BOURSE, Dec. 18.—There has been a fair amount of business transacted to-day.

The following is the address of the Polish Central National Committee to the Jews in Poland, and their reply : To our Brethren of the Old Covenant,—Several centu ries ago, when fanaticism was raging over all Europe, when the institutions of the middle ages had scornfully thrust you out of the pale of society, and every country was rear ing funeral piles for you, hospitable and humane Poland was the only nation who spread over you her sheltering wings and hugged you to a mother's bosom. And mutual relations were formed amongst us, and you occupied a standing in the Polish community, and there was no example in Poland of any persecution, not only of your faith, but of your habits and customs. And the moment came at last when you recognised Poland to be your country, and we acknowledged you vo• luntarily and from heartfelt conviction as our fellow brothers, which no nation in the world has had the heart to do as yet. And, henceforth, no one can ever deny your being to gether with us the children of one mother—the children of our country Poland. Only the foe laying in wait for the perdition of Poland, the foe only, who rests his rule in our country upon dupli city and falsehood, and by causing division and setting us at variance, this foe only makes yet distinctions with regard to you. This foe deliberates lir on you in his committees at St. Petersburg like upon Indian pariahs; forbids you, like in fectPd beings, from settling in Muscovite provinces and in Lithania, and Russia thrusts you out of human society by legal restrictions. Here in this by the Congress of Vienna established kingdom of Poland, being unable to contradict the dis tinctly expressed national will, the foe nevertheless renders this will unavailing by enacting for you distinct laws full of restrictions and exceptions, whilst we have out of our own free will and most sincerely settled lung since the so called " Jewish Question," by a brotherly embrace. By these deceits the foe imposes upon some of the more credulous amongst you—he fancies to be able to form amongst you a party for himself, and falsely maintains that the immunities granted to you proceed from him I Brethren of the Old Covenant, we have faith in your being Poles; judge therefore with Polish mind and heart these proceedings of the invader bearing heavily upon Po land. Like Poles, unite with us in a common family, use your greatest exertions for the emancipation of your com mon country, and never forget, that the necessity of enact ing for you distinct exceptional laws can only cease in an entire, free, and independent Poland. THE CENTRAL NATIONAL COMMITTEE. Warsaw, Sept, 9, 1862. THE REPLY OF THE JEWS. Brothers,—Our common foe having exhausted all the means to crush the nation, has again recourse to the old device of Muscovite-Austrian policy, " divide and impera," divide and govern, and what bayonets, musket balls, the profanation of temples, what the dungeons, Siberia, and the rope could not accomplish, he expects to attain by provoking Gallician massacres and a crusade against the Jews. And behold the wolf puts on the lamb's skin, the tyrant pro claims himself a protector of the oppressed. But whoever can fail to perceive the claw under the treacherous dis guise, whoever does not anticipate treason lurking be hind it. The Muscovite Government who do not admit the Sews even now into their dominions, who at a not more remote period than the reign of Nicholas, were baptizing children forcibly torn away from their parents, this Governmcn rests now their appeal to us (published in No. 202, of their official organ the Dzionnik Powszechity), upon the wrongs perpetrated upon us in Poland, in the country which pressed us to her bosom at the time when everywhere else we were persecuted by fire and sword. They dole out to us some immunities, but these are not conceived in the noble spirit of Casimir the Great, whose purpose it was to alleviate our fate and incorporate us in mind and feeling into the Polish nation, but they are merely intended to attach us to them to separate us from the rest of the nation and again evoke against us hate and persecution. The Muscovite Government hope by these means to shake the brotherly feeling which puts them into such awe and fury, and to sow between us mutual mistrust, of which they would not fail to take advantage. But their efforts are of no avail. Our stay of eight centuries on the soil of Poland turned us into her children. Her history is our history, her fate is our fate, and her foe our foe. Tho esteem and affection of our fellow. brethren is dearer to us than any material ad vantages soever. We prefer a clear conscience and an un blemished character, which enable us to look boldly into every fellow-countryman's face, to all the comforts of life. The base temptations of the Muscovite shall never deafen into us the mighty voice of the prophet Jeremiah calling to the Jews carried away captives from Palestine : " Seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the Lord for it, for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace."—Jerem. xxix, 7. Do not withdraw therefore from us your hand brethren; strengthen the holy knot of brotherho' d tied on the graves of the victims of the 28th of February aril the& h of April, and this last act of despair of the foe will be like all the former ones, of no avail. THE POLES OF JEWISH PERSUASION. STANDARD THEAIRE. The late Mr. Sheridan Knowles's chef d'oeuvre, the clas sical play of " Virginius," was produced at this theatre last evening, for the purpose of introducing to the metropolitan public Mr. Henry Vandenhoff (son of the late eminent tragedian, Mr. John Vandenhoff), in the character of the noble Roman father. Mr. H. Vandenhoff's conception an d impersonation of this difficult part was characterised throughout by that well-studied and delicately-classic style which so pre-eminently distinguished his lamented pro genitor. Totally avoiding "clap-trap" and servile unite gave, in a scholarly, artistic, an d elocu tion, for which a part like Vir g inius affords a mple scope, Mr. Vandenhoff tionary point-of view, a masterly delineation, and one which ought to elevate him to a high position on the London stage.

The Edmund's Main Colliery was on Wednesday the scene of another explosion, which, though hap pily unattended with loss of life, has, no doubt, from its extraordinary violence, seriously damaged the workings of the colliery, and what is still more unfortunate, has made the reopening of the colliery and the recovery of the bodies a question of months instead of days. The fire, it will be remembered, originated at the extreme point of the dip board gates. Hopes were entertained that it had not ex tended into the workings, though the course of the last explosion on the Bth, and the continued hig h temperature of the air in the shafts, suggested seri ous doubts on that point. The end of the dip board gates must have been filled with water some d a l ° ago, and had the fire been confined to them it would now have been extinguished. The explo sion of Wednesday proves beyond a doubt that it is not confined to that point, but has reached a port loll of the workings very much nearer the shafts. DLit ing that morning Mr. Woodhouse, the colliery en' gineer of Derby, arrived at the colliery, and co n " suited with Mr. Morton, the government inspect or, Mr. Brown of Derby, and the other mining e n g e• neers ana colliery viewers present. Mr. Woodhouse was informed in detail of the state of the pit, 8° far as it could be ascertained after the first explosions/ of the putting in of water, and the other steps tak en thereupon, and expressed his full concurrence 113 and satisfaction with what had been done: T he question for consideration then was, whether the time had arrived for descending the shafts to ase e i r• tain the state of the mine more decisively than c ould be done at the surface, with a view to the recovel of the bodies. It should b© stated that althouo the boardgates and workings of the mine were on' ventilated, as the result of the explosion, and ther e ` fore impenetrable, a current of air continued t° circulate between the downcast and upcast or cDP °III shaft, and that this portion of the mine was ther e ' fore quite accessible as a mere matter of ventilatio n ' The temperature of the air in the upcast shaft O taken to guide the engineers, and the condition s the atmosphere carefully noted. It was found 011 the temperature was still at 55 degrees in the UP' cast and 42 degrees in the downcast shafts, a 0 e t Friday last. There was also a slight emission 41' smoke from the upcast shaft. A list of volunteer* moat of whom were about the pit at the time, bsa r been made out, and every requisite provided '° descending and attempting to re-open the minemine ., the engineers should so deoide ; but as the result of a long and anxious deliberation, the engineers 70 tided to continue the pouring of water intne t i mine, and to defer any attempt to reopen it nut' 1 , further consultation. Mr. Woodhouse left tbe liery to take train to London, and Mr. Morton P r o v ic ceeded to Barnsley on his way home. T ll ° T a t place about ten minutes after three o'clock, an" te, 25 minutes after three the proprietors, engie ee colliery viewers, and spectators still in the ne l ,, 0 bourhood of the pit were startled by the boom n'L/0 explosion far louder, sharper, and more terrifi c te ; even that which sealed the fate of the men still I the pit on the afternoon of the Bth inst. Insta a dense column of black smoke rose from the cu P e ti i Its height was estimated at more than 10 0 feet, go it remained for a few moments as clearly The sharply defined as the steeple of a church. e i c explosion was so violent that it not only forced ban, the current of air which was descending the 0 00 cast shafts, but vomited from them also an imra e le a volume of smoke, carried on a blast which hil lr Of the away the planks placed across the mouth 0 - a shaft, snapping some of them in two like laths) , en g , , tossing the others against the head of the gen r , el s o whence they fell to the bottom of the when the force of the current had spent its t 8 In a few moments the current h resumed 1 . a etOf natural course down the downcast 0 e 0 but the 'cupola continued to emit thick vol ele i o of smoke until evening. The explosion of described by experienced persons as ° he th e the most violent that ever occurred in mining districts of the north. Had there e7OO gearing over the cupola shaft, in which there was opposing current to beat back, it would undeub..o edly have been torn to pieces ; but the curr ent ta rt spent itself without obstacle. On the occu rreilc of the explosion Mr. Bartholomew, one of the P °. prietors, drove to Barnsley in pursuit of Mr. I ‘ l°.. ton, who returned with him to the colliery at ha lf ' la at past four o'clock. A consultation was then b e ' l3 , which it was unanimously determined, es t safest and most expeditious mode of ex tinguieh nl ° f the fire, to fill up the cupola shaft to the dePtil,;, 16 yards—ten yards above all communication 7; the workings—with earth and clay ;to cover tie downcast earth, and puddle the mouths of the downcast shafts, so as effectually to sh ut out % air; and to flood the whole dip workings DP to a t engine shaft with water.
