All remittances are, henceforth, to be made to Mr. JOHN CHAPLIN, at The Sun office, 112, Strand, who has been appointed, by the Lord Chancellor, Receiver and Manager of The Sun newspaper, and the outstanding debts due in respect thereof. " A duel in the form of a debate," though so " dreaded and hated" by one of our poets, is generally relished in the House of Commons, and by those who read its discussions. Now-a-days no harm ever comes of it. No blood is drawn. And, having in our social habits outlived bull baiting and cock-fightino and " the ring" enjoy ing but doubtful and exceptional toleration, it would be hard indeed if we should lose the plea sure of a boxing match with the weapons of unpar liamentary language in the House of Commons. To be sure business is not advanced by such " sets-to." But the house and the country are entitled to their amusements as well as their work, and this is not a session overdone with business. It is of no use, therefore, to shake our heads at such a word-duel as that between Mr. MAGUIRE and Mr. LAYARD last night. Whatever we may say for propriety's sake, inwardly we all like it far better than an able debate on the Navy Estimates, and incom parably better than the ablest debate on India. It will not be denied that Mr. MAGUIRE did go far and needlessly out of his way to assail Mr. LAYARD personally. He marred, indeed, his plead ings for his client by diverting attention to the motives he attributed to Mr. LAYARD. It is im possible to deny that Mr. MAGUIRE must have wished to produce the impression that in matters not at all directly connected with the case of the Greek newspaper, Mr. LAYARD had, from interested motives, endeavoured to give a false complexion to the state of Turkish finance. Mr. MA GUIRE, however, did not make use of any unparliamentary language, but if the insinuations were not unparliamentary, we must own that they were such as would be ♦ery likely if made in any other company to hazard an effusion of blood from a prominent feature of the offender's face. " Don't pump on him," is an order well understood by ex cited urehins, or an excited mob. We must cer tainly think Mr. MAGUIRE was equally intelligible when he first intimated that he should, but for his opinion of their honour, have charged the gentle• men on the Treasury bench with " rigging the market for the Turkish Loan'—and repeating that he would not say it ; and afterwards specifying Mr. LAYARD individually as connected with the bank which had taken the loan. We cannot wcnder that Mr. LAYARD was hardly no guarded in his reply, or that he should retort to all this that he " could not be expected to answer such a charge, coming from such a man." Now, it seems, on the high authority of Mr. DISRAELI, assented to by others, that the deviation from Par liamentary etiquette is confined to the word scan. Quarter, Mr. MAGUIRE, and the proceeding would be quite Parliamentary. Mr. LAYARD should have said, " coming from such a quarter," in favour of which Parliamentary word Mr. LAYARD consented after an explanation from Mr. MAGUIRE, to with draw the word man. We rathor wonder that Mr. MAGUIRE did not protest against beinE un-manned. or reduced +,-..“-,..stc; and we must leave honourable members to choose their own style and title. Mr. MAGUIRE revelled in denunciations of Turks, in which Mr. BRIGHT, who takes the Greeks under his patronage, seemed inclined to join him. As in his own country, Mr. BRIGHT takes the side of the many against the few—that of eleven millions of Greeks against (in Europe) two millions and a quarter of Turks: Enough for Mr. BRIGHT, per haps, that Lord PALMEItSTON very decidedly pets the Turks, Mr. MAGUIRE and Mr. BRIGHT, would for that reason alone, be ready to pelt them with every stone their administration of such a splendid empire affords; and, unhappily, it affords too many. Mr. LAYARD could not avoid the temptation of pelting the POPE and the Roman Government in return, which of course afforded sufficient missiles of the kind needed by the Foreign Under-Secretary. The House seemed well pleased enough with this reciprocal pelting of the pets of the respective members; and it was some time time before the real subject in hand came fairly before it. It is remarkable that the utterance of unparliamentary language seemed con tagious last night. In a discussion which followed on packing Irish juries, Mr. M'MAHON, by com paring Orangemen to Ribbonmen, provoked Cap tain ARCHDALE into saying that the words of the former were "totally false, and without any founda tion in truth." Again the Speaker had to inter fere on cries of order. He decided that the word "false" was unparliamentary. Captain AECHDALE withdrew it, but took his revenge, by saying that the "statement of the honourable member was entirely contrary to the fact." It was indeed "saying the thing which is not." But like the House, we are almost in danger of overlooking the real business, in the excitement of the duel. We think the Foreign•office to blame. M. XENOS, a Greek gentleman, of high standing, naturalized in this country, publishes at consider able expense to himself, an excellently illustrated newspaper, named the British star. It is printed in London, in the modern Greek language, and is designed for the enlightenment of the Greeks of the East. It is an exceedingly well got up paper; e have looked at it occasionally, and can testify to its merit s . Th e enterpr i se i s highly cre di ta bl e, v way, to M. XENOS. The paper has, how 'ever, no Wa y of reaching the East, but through the Post-offic e , which the Porte allows the Bri t tish Legation to Carry on at Constantinople. Now it a pp ears "let some of the political part w hich is but a small p or tion of the pape r , con t a i ne d ar ti c les partly original, partly borrowed from the the enligh enlightened noted E ng lish press, Following, owhich the ?T urkish Government therefor objected. exam ple of France , Austria, and most nations of Western Europe, it requested o ur e h Government to use the postal privileges conced ed to it in Turkey for circulating the paper. So far our Go vernment had, perhciPs' hardy any option.

Wo hope Mr. LAYARD and his chief, and the Turkish Government also, will reconsider the wnole subject. Unpleasant temper and personal differ ences have been imported into it, but it will be a disgrace to this country if, with all its influence at the Porte, it cannot obtain the withdrawal of the request to stop the circulation of the literary British Star in Turkey. The head of the British and Foreign School Society, the once active member of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Know ledge, will surely be but too pleased, when he rightly understands the case, to procure again for the British Star a free circulation throughout the Turkish empire. Our Foreign Secretary has, in the case of Mr. KENOS, a gentleman of known character and standing to deal with, and may feel quite sure of no future cause being given for Turkish complaints, This morning there were consigned to the grave, in Westminster Abbey, the mortal remains of CHARLES JOHN, Earl and Viscount CANNING, of F.ilbrahan, _Governor-Gsn oral of In The narrow span of the deceased statesman's life, between the 14th of December, 1812, and the 17th of June, 1862, was thus opportunely commemorated by those who loved and honoured Lord CANNING the most truly, more especially by those who had enjoyed, fora longer or a shorter interval, the pri vilege of his personal friendship. The solemn sepulture of an eminent administrator like the De ceased in that national mausoleum, under the shadow of which England reverently lays the ina nimate dust of the majority of her great men, was an evidence of homage due to Lord CANNING'S reputation. As the mourning friends and asso ciates of the departed statesman passed on their way to Westminster Abbey, under the effigy of his illus trious father, immediately opposite Palace Yard, they must have felt that in no other than that neighbourhood could the distinguished successor to his name—himself also the conservator, and even it might be said, the enhancer, of his fair fame — find more appropriately his last resting-place. In Westminster Abbey, and no where else than in West minster Abbey, ought that son of GEORGE CANNING to repose in death—that eminent son of an emi nent sire—whose lot it had been to crown the, honours paid by a grateful nation to the memory of his progenitor, by adding to GEORGE CANNING'B posthumous Viscountcy—CHAßLES CANNING'S well earned Earldom. Our friends the Japanese are now starring it at Rotterdam. Circumstances prevented them from accepting the hospitalities of the Swiss ; but it was already down upon their programme to become for a brief interval, at least, the welcome guests of the Dutchmen. It was due to Holland indeed that these courtesies between the Dutch and the Japanese should be thus reciprocated—and that the three gentlemen, with the unpronounceable names, from Nangasaki, should not quit Europe without having visited the capital of Holland. For it was the Dutch traders in all human likelihood who first gave Japan an inkling of any tangible and visible kind what there is in Europeans. The Japanese have been in relation with the Dutch, politically, socially, and commercially, during more than two centuries. From the Dutch it was that they obtained their earliest notions of the en terprise of the western peoples of this old eastern hemisphere. And it is therefore simply because of their having a reasonable regard to the general fitness of things that the members of the Em bassy from the councils of the Tycoon have fouud their way in duo course to Rotter dam. There they appear to have arrived comfortably enough on the 14th instant : and for the first time since they took their departure from Japanese waters, they had the satisfaction of read ing words of welcome, emblazoned in their own language, on the banners hung out by the courteous Dutch to signalise the little pageant of their arrival and reception. It was a graceful thought on the part of the local authorities : and one that the Japanese travellers must to the full have appreciated. The incident can hardly be looked upon as so very surprising, however —remembering that the Dutch and the Japanese have held uninterrupted inter course with each other, as we have said, during two centuries. Latterly the citizens of the metropolis have had only too many opportunities of realising to them selves the pathetic character of these last tokens of respect offered by England to her illustrious dead, when laying them, with the alternately spoken and chaunted words of the sublime ritual, among the crowded tombs accumulated there during many past centuries under the venerable roof-beams of the old Abbey down at Westminster. How often during the last few years has not the Very Rev, the Dean had occasion to stand there at the head of some newly-opened grave of a renowned contem porary articulating those words of divine hope and of sublime promise, while the echoing arches of the LilhEing nal:lames of GROF - T and PURCELL ! Now it was at the grave of Lord MACAULAY—now at that of the veteran Earl of DUNDONALD! I The distinguished man who in his turn was in terred only this very day down yonder in West minster Abbey, although passing away from amongst us at an earlier age than the gifted Historian of England, the Master-Essayist of our Literature, can hardly at the same time be deemed to have expired so prematurely as Lord MACAULAY. The magnum opus of the latter was at the period of his somewhat abrupt demise left in a state deplorably incomplete. Inso much that it is none the less of a fragment than that previous commencement by Sir JAMES MACKIN TOSH of a History of England, dating downwards in its narrative from the self-same starting point, to wit, from 1688, the ever-memorable year of the English Revolution ! that year, strangely enough, just a fully rounded century before the outbreak in 1789 of the great French Revolution ! To the incompleteness of MACKINTOSH'S History, THOMAS MACAULAY himself made affecting allusion in the dignified preamble to his own—hoping, alas ! vainly, for a prolongation of life sufficient to enable him to accomplish the self-same task more thoroughly. So incomplete, however, have been these more extended labours of Lord 11IACAULAY over that same great epoch immediately subsequent to the close of the Revolution of 1688, that his work, as it now stands before us, even as it has been partially and posthumously finished by the fifth volume issued about a year since from the press of the Messrs. LONGMAN, ought, correctly speaking, to be re-entitled ! The work, as a whole , ought to be called no longer " The History. of England," but—rather than that—" The History of the Reign of King WILLAIM by Lord MACAULAY. Even then it would be difficult not to recognise in its full force the fact, that Lord MACAULAY, when he died, died, so far as his earthly labours were concerned, so far as we his fellow mortals can at all appreciate them, most prema turely. Not thus, though expiring, as we have before said, at an earlier age, has passed away from the public scene the late ex-Governor- General of India, His work may in truth be pronounced to have been as fully as it was beyond a doubt most satisfactorily accomplished. And it was work peculiarly worthy of accomplish ment by the hand of the son of GEORGE CANNING. The cherished ambition of that great: statesman was, as modern history relates, that of filling the great English Pro-Consulate in Hindostan as the ruler of our Oriental dominions. It was an ambition that GEORGE CANNING was constrained reluctantly to forego by the force of those unlooked-for circumstances which compelled him, instead of becoming Governor-General of India, to become for a brief interval, and au interval of very bitter and for CANNING himself unhappily of fats anxiety, Prime Minister of England. What GEORGE CAN NING dreamt of only, his son CHARLES CANNING was enabled by a happi e r d e stiny to:accomplish ; and to a ccompl i sh i n a way that h i s i l l ustr i ous f at h er never once p ro b a bl y h a d presente d b e f ore hi s amp l e .and radiant of the British imagi nation .

A pleasanter incident we learn marked the disem barcation of the Japanese, a pleasanter, incident, even though the Japanese inscriptions legibly emblazoned on the flags hung out upon that unwonted holiday among the citizens of Rotterdam. For we find it related that, in consequence of some delay taking place at the moment of disembarcation, the Japanese, with apparent eagerness, availed them selves of the fe w moments thereby offered to them for indulging in so unexpected a freak on the part of their Excellencies and their attendants— by mingling in the crowd and entering freely into conversation with several of the bystanders, with whom it proved that they could readily enough interchange ideas. The secret of this being that several members of the Embassy could talk a trifle of Dutch —whether High Dutch or Low Dutch we are not informed—but at any rate they could understand and be understood by Dutchmen. It is agreeable to read thereanent that "A very animated scene was soon presented, as an active interchange of cards, tobacco, and cigars took place, and the Dutch ladies attracted a large share of the favour and admiration of the Eastern visi tors. The heads of the embassy seemed to be great admirers of aniseed liquor," it is added, "or at least they .soon began to make a liberal use of the cor dial; and what perhaps was particularly pleasing mitt' and assiduity:'' r - rgtO vittMaluphequan little glimpses we have caught since they have been in these latitudes—and we trust it may not be the last obtained—of our good friends the Japanese ambassadors. FUNERAL OF EARL CANNING. (THIS DAY.) The funeral of this distinguished nobleman took place this day in Westminster Abbey. A t half-past ten this morning, the funeral cortege, which consisted of a hearse drawn by four horses, and eight mourning coaches, and a great number of private carriages, left Grosvenor-square, and arrived at the Abbey at half-past eleven, where it was received by the Dean, and a great number of the clergy, at the cloisters. The line of procession within the cathedral was from the cloister door into the south aisle, down which it passed, to the great west door. It then turned round, and advanced up the nave through the screen to the choir, at the entrance of which the coffin was deposited upon a bier. Amongst the long line of eminent men Who fol lowed the coffin were the Marquis of Clarendon, chief mourner, Lord Dunkellin, Lord Stratford de Redcliff, the Earl of Cork, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Lord De Tabley, Lord Harris, the Hon. G. Talbot, General Stuart, Genera' Lindsay, Major Bowie, Sir W. Alexander, the Earl of Malmesbury, the Duke of Buccleuch, Lord Palmerston, the Marquis of *Westminster, the Duke of Somerset, the Duke of Argyll, the Bishop of Oxford, Earl St. Germans, Earl Grey, Earl de Grey and Ripon, Lord Stanley of Alderley, the Earl of Shrewsbury, Sir G. Grey, Mr. Cardwell, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord Sydney, Earl Granville, the Marquis of Sligo, Lord Clyde, and Sir Henry Lawrence. Amongst those present in the choir were : Major-General Lucas, General Hill, Lieut.-General Low, Colonel Hobday, Major-General Peart, Colo nel Balfour, Viscount Pollington, Captain Sotheby, A.D.C. to the Queen ; Major-General Roncroft, Mr. Dorin, Sir S. Campbell, Sir R. Garrett, Colonel Cartwright, Major-General Hamynton, Major H. James, Major Anson, and Lord H. G. Lennox. Before the processional music ceased the mourners had reached and occupied their seats in the choir. Then followed Purcell's burial chant, commencing " I will take heed to my ways," &c., after which the lesson appointed for the service was read. The choir next sang Handel's anthem, composed for the funeral of George the Second's Queen Caroline— " When the ear heard him," &c., at the conclusion of which the coffin was removed from the bier to the grave, and lowered into its position, the mourn ers .forming an extended semicircle on either side. The choir now sung " Man that is born of a woman," &c., by Croft; and " Thou knowest, Lord, the secrets of our hearts," &c., by Purcell; after which the Dean read the solemn prayer, " Foras much as it hath pleased," &c., which was followed by the choir singing Croft's "I heard a voice," &c, The concluding prayers of the service were then read by the Dean, after which Handel's noble an them, " His body is buried in peace," &c., was finely sung by the choir. Grace having been pronounced by the Dean, the ceremonial was concluded by the Dead March in Saul, during the performance of which, by Dc, 'fork, on the organ, the mourners slowly retired. The remains of the late Earl are buried in the north transept, in the same grave as that which contains the remains of his father and mother, and very near the monument erected to the deceased's father, the graves of Wilberforce and the Pitt family. His Highness the Viceroy of Egypt received on Thursday afternoon, at the 1 urkish Embassy, a depu tation from the Peninsular and Oriental Company, which was attended by several noblemen and gentlemen interested in. Eastern commerce. Among others were the Earl of Leven and MOville, Mr. Ewart, M.P., several other mem • bers of Parliament; and Messrs. Anderson and Allen, direc tors of the Peninsular and Oriental ompany. REHEARSAL FOR THE HAN DEL FESTIVAL. LY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. CRYSTAT PALACE, THIS DAY. The rehearsal meeting passed off with great success. There were upwards of twenty thousand persons present. Every note was clearly heard in the new orchestra. THE TRIENNIAL HANDEL FESTIVAL. A preliminary rehearsal, by the members of the various provincial choirs, of some of the pieces to be performed during the three days of the Festival next week, took place last night at Exeter Hall, and proved in the highest degree satisfactory. So perfect indeed was the entire performance that Mr. Costa, ever on the lock-out for a slip or a fault, could do little more than indicate the time with his baton, which in almost every instance was fol lowed with unerring precision. The trial, too, left no doubt as to the capability of the singers. The brilliancy of the sopranos was especially remarkable ; but the high voices were necessarily heard to greater advantage than the alto, tenors, and bases, which were rendered some what subservient by the whole force, upwards of 2,000, being crowded within the area of the hall. Of course the few persons present who constituted the audience were not enabled to judge of the blend ing of voices, since they were placed in too close proximity with the singers. The effect in the fortissimo passages was, as may be readily credited, absolutely deafening. It is, however, impossible to form a correct opinion of the power to be obtained from the combined forces from hearing them in so circumscribed a space. All we can vouch for at present is, that the voices in the four departments of the choir seem to be not merely of admirable, but incomparable quality, and that the singing was beyond all comparison the most perfect we ever heard from so vast a choral body in a preporatory essay. CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY. The adjourned meeting of the Crystal Palace Company was held yesterday at the London Ta vern ; Mr. T. Farquhar presiding. It will be remembered that at the general meet ing on the 10th inst., tho report of the directors recommended the removal of Mr. England from the directory on the grounds of immorality, which were then stated, and which were not denied. This was met by an amendment calling for a committee of inquiry into the affairs of the company. The amendment was carried, and a poll was demanded by the chairman. The meeting yesterday was called to hear the result. Mr. GROVE, the secretary, read the report pre pared by the scrutineers. It gave the following returns : AMERICA. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) ROCHE'S POINT, JUNE 21, 9 30 A M. The Royal Mail steamship Europa, from Boston and Halifax, is onaing in. PARIS, JUNE 21. The diloniteur of this morning says : The rumour that volunteers for Mexico had been invited from the army of Paris is incorrect. The Minister of War, certain of finding equal ardour and emulation in every corps, has confined himself to the selection of the troops which are to form part of the expedition.' For the amendment—Recorded personally, 25 proprietors; £8,450 amount of stock; 1,690 votes. Against the amendment-324 proprietors; £133,330 amount of stock; 26,666 votes. Recorded by proxies, 102 proprietors, £2Bl, 295 stock ; 56,385 votes—making a total number of 426 proprietors ; £415,252 amount of stock, 83,051 votes. Showing a majority against the amendment— Proprietors, 401 ; amount of stock, £406,805; votes 81,361. The CHAIRMAN then announced that Mr. Eng land had sent in his resignation ; and he would, therefore, move that the report, with the exception of that portion which related to Mr. England, be adopted. Mr. BILLINGS seconded the resolution, and it was unanimously adopted. The retiring directors were re-elected. SCENE IN THE FRENCH LEGISLATIVE CHAMBER. When the French Legislative Chamber assembled on Thursday, the President, Count de Morny, rose and addressed the members on a personal, matter. Ho said— I was absent yesterday on public duty, attending a ministerial council. I see by the Moniteur that M. Picard made the following objection to the LTV An/ rtv7traliz cisEtqliarYll O have been ad dressed to me by the President, asking me to speak more seriously. If I had heard that observation, which was probably inaudible from the noise which then prevailed, I should not have accepted it. I should have accepted it neither in form nor in sub stance. Ido not accept it now. I regret to make these remarks in the absence of M. de Moray, but as the regulations give me no other opportunity, I am compelled to make them now." What passed was this—M. Picard, while speaking, was inter rupted by cries which I now read from the .Moniteur —"This is comedy; it is vaudeville; try to be more serious." M. Picard then said, " I didn't hear the interruptions, and consequently cannot answer them." I said to him, "I heard the interruptions; they say to you, This is vaudeville ; speak seriously.'" I was merely the interpreter of interruptions which the speaker said he had not heard; but now, since M. Picard imputes to me the latter words, " Speak seriously," I have the honour to tell him that I take them upon myself. Here is the phrase of his which provoked the intezruption— "We are governed at such great cost because we are too much governed; the powers of the Skate have too much to do, I admit ; they are not paid in proportion to all they undertake to accomplish. They are charged to provide for our happiness; they do not do it ; but at any rate they have taken the task upon themselves." Now, I tell M. Picard that the Government has not taken upon itself to secure the happiness of anybody. If M. Picard and his friends do not find themselves happy under the Government, there are many who feel that they owe to it their prosperity and safety. (Marked adhesion.) When M. Picard uses language such as I have quoted, he does not speak seriously. The Presi dent had a perfect right to make the observation. When the President makes a remark approved of by the Chamber, if a speaker does not like it, he puts himself in opposition to the Chamber. (Adhesion.) M. PICARD—I think, M. le President, that you have no right to set yourself up as a judge of my language. (Noise.) I maintain my opinion, and will endeavour to justify it. 1 think you have no right to tell me that Ido not speak seriously. You are my superior here; but merely for the applica tion of the regulations, and the rather because you preside in a chamber which did not choose you for its President. (Interruption.) Count DE MORNY—This is a most unconstitu• tional observation. M. PICARD—I could not—my dignity would not allow mo to—accept the President's observation. I was speaking seriously. I observed in the inter ruption a piece of tactics. I was discussing the question of plurality of offices, and was speaking most seriously. My speech is on record, and it is an answer to the President's observations. Count DE MORNY—One word only. I know my duties—l will fulfil them. I know my rights—l will maintain them. (Bravo ! ,'Bravo!) The ap probation'of the Chamber makes it unnecessary for me to add more. (Loud applause.) The discussion of the budget then proceeded. DRURY LANE.—This theatre will open on Mon day evening, for a summer season, under the management of Mr. Dion Boucicault. " The Colleen Bawn" will be re presented, with Mr. Boucicault in his original character, and Madame Celeste, who will make her re-appearance in Lon lon after an absence of 12 mouths, strengthens the cast as Mrs. Cregan. Mr. William Searle will be Danny Mann. Miss Sara Stevens will make her metropolitan debut as Eily O'Connor; and Miss Jessie M'Lean, from the Royal English Opera, will be Ann Chute. In the afterpieco of " The 'Poodles," Mr. J. S. Clarke, the American comedian, will be introduced to the London stage.—Era. TAE VICTORIA CROSS.—WAR -OFFICE, June 20. —The Queen has been graciously pleased to signify her in tention to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross on the undermentioned officer of her Majesty's army, whose claim to the same has been submitted for her Majesty's alp: . proval, for his conspicuo us b ravery d ur i ng the siege Lucknow, viz., Captain Henry George Browne, 32d Regi ment (now of the 100th Regiment.) 14ATEST NE WT 4S . shed by the f a ult o f y our f a th ers an d yourselves. There is no &ilitary fame for you on the banks of the Vistula, or in the cemeteries of Praga and Nola. Another fame there awaits you—the fame of union and association ! What to do, and how to do it, you will learn when the time comes. While wait ing events, be assured of the truth of our words, and swear by all that is sacred that you will not raise your flag against Poland. " Such an oath as this is not required by the Czar, but by the conscience and remorse of the nation ; and should destruction await you in con sequence, it will be for a holy cause; you will fall victims to your desire to save, and from your martyr's blood will arise a free and unshakeable union between Poland and Russia, as the beginning of the free union of all Sc:avonians in an earthly deed which shall be one and indivisible."—Peters. burg Free Press. It can easily be imagined that with such a feel ing of discontent, the Czar was obliged to try his brother's ability in Poland, having first rewarded General Luders for his ill-treatment of the Poles by creating him a Russian Count (they are as plentiful in Russia as blackberries), and bestowing him a pension for life of 36,000 roubles out of the Polish Treasury. The game has cost the Poles rather dear. FRANCE. BOURSE, June 20.—The market continues inani mate, and has lost some little of the firmness which it has maintained for the last two days, in spite of the anxiety which prevailed on the subject of Mexico.

Although the appointment of the Grand Duke Constantine to the post of the Lieutenant of this kingdom is a fact of public notoriety, as also the nomination of the Marquis Wielopolski at the head of the civil administration, and the removal from their places of several high functionaries, yet in reality nothing has been changed. General Luders, the present governor, in announcing at the sitting of the Council of State, this, as he termed it, " fresh boon of the Imperial solicitude for the good of the country," and invoking the nation to receive it with gratitude, has, however, himself taken great care to make the most of the authority he now exercises till the arrival of his Imperial successor. Thus, the tyranny, persecutions, and vexations, seem to run riot in Warsaw. Young ladies, high-born and well educated, have been imprisoned on the charge of singing the hymn, and torn away from their mothers and relations,to be transported, Godknows where, without a parent's blessing or a parting farewell. Priests are being hunted and despatched, and even a gentleman, named Nowakowski, who had been imprisoned, tried, and acquitted by the High Court of Appeal, composed of three Rus sians, and two Poles, and the proceedings thereof approved by the Emperor himself, instead of being set at liberty was purely by General Luder's per sonal order, transported to a fortress in Russia. Would anyone in France or England credit such arbitrary and despotic conduct, and yet it is an un deniable fact. To have an idea of what a Russian Governor is, one must see him and witness his actions. In view of such a state of things and such sufferings, it is not surprising that some of the higher classes would be disposed to welcome Con stantine, provided he showed himself true and honest, qualities so rare in the Russian monarchs, that even their relatives are often in want of them. But will this Change give universal satisfaction, even if the Constitution of 1815 were to be entirely restored. My impression is, that as long as the other ancient Polish provinces remain in state; quo, the Polish language excluded, the old statutes of rit l N ' lank e dOM will never be quiet or contented. A few changes of persons will not be enough. If the Emperor has any wisdom and is actuated by good disposition towards the Poles, he will do well to reconcile them now, as when his own Russian subjects begin in earnest he will have to give up even his throne. Already a silent but a terrible revolution is breaking out in his capital, manifesting itself in the large and frequent fires which threaten to consume the whole of St. Petersburg. The people, impatient and in furiated at their oppressed condition, deceived on the often repeated, but never fulfilled, promises of their amelioration, unable to cope with the milit ary hordes weighing upon them, have adopted a system of reducing all to ashes, of making a desert of the country, and of erecting on the heaps a new social edifice. It appears that this slow but devouring element has thrown the Czar and his family into a great consternation. There was no other means to show the Russians and the Poles the Czar's in trigues than to promulgate several conciliatory measures, and the appointment of a fresh Polish Vice-Roy is one of Them. Another pill adminis tered to the Emperor is the agitation exercised among his army. It is known that many eminent Russian writers, and the more enlightened class of the population, are opposed to the annexation of Poland to Russia, and urge, most strongly, its aban donment, as it is a source of eternal commotion to both countries and of a ruinous expense to Russia, both in men and money, and of incessant rivalry among the camerilla and the military, as to who will go to Poland to oppress and to persecute most. These people have widely circulated in the army the following address, printed in St. Petersburg, by the clandestine press, which being worthy of piblic notice, I subjoin here translated into Eng lish : " To THE RUSSIAN TROOPS IN POLAND, " Brethren ! the time for a rising in Poland ap proaches. Again they strive to make you the exe cutioners of the Poles. Do not obey. Even if you conquered the Pules, your victories would cover you with shame, and you will have to blush at your bravery. It is difficult to wash away the blood of one's own kindred ; do not take this sin a second time to your soul, do not accept the brand of Cain, which, if you do, will for ever adhere to you. " We know that you will not, of your own free will, march against the Poles; but this will be the very occasion to show that it is now time for you to have a will of your own. It is. not easy to force tens of thousands of men, armed from head to foot, to do anything against their will, if there is any thing like unanimity among them. The peasants of a certain province once rose in rebellion ; the troops were called out—yet the people did not dis perse. The General scolded them and ordered his troops to load, the latter obeyed, thinking it was with the view of frightening the people. Still the people did not yield. The General then made a sign to the Colon e l to order the troops to fire. The Colonel gave the word of command; the soldiers lowered their arms and remained fixed to the spot • What, think you, happened to them? The General and the authorities w ere s Here o alarmed you have that they hushed up the matter. Nothing. an example of your strength. " The oppression of Poland for the benefit of the Russia of the Czars is an absurdity—for it is only carried out by the physical s uperiority.of a nume rous army which has been in Poland ever since the 3 ear 1831. Is it natural that for 30 years the Go vernment should not have dared to take one regi ment out of Poland without immediately replacing it by another ? You who are in Poland do not protect the Russian nation. The Russian nation does not require it of 3 . 0 u •; immediately on its awakening, and it wakes already, it will renounce you, and curse your victories. You who are in Poland are guarding the illegal spoil of the Cz ms. " There is neither glory nor credit to be got by Russian heroes in Poland : that land is too wet with the tears of women, and the blood of men, THE BOMBAY MAIL. We have received, in anticipation of the Bombay mail, files of papers from Bombay to the 24th of May, and from Calcutta to the 15th. We take the following summary of news from the Times of India of the 24th May :-- "The Beechworth, 1,265 tons, Frain, master, while endeavouring to work out of Bombay Har bour on the night of the 12th inst., grounted on the S.W. point of the Caranja Shoal, and is a total wreck. A portion of the cargo, which is valued at £lOO,OOO, will be saved. A Marine Court of In quiry has been engaged in investigating the cause of the accident. " The Auckland has returned to Bombay after visiting the wreck of the Sultana on the Shah Byramgore reef and picking up ten Lascars belong ing to the vessel on one of the Laccadive Islands. The captain, chief mate, and the rest of the crew had left the wreck for Mangalore in boats. " Sir Hugh Rose has presented Colonel Travers with the Victoria Cross. " Bala Rao, captured in Jummoo, has been sent to Cawnpore under a strong escort, to be identified. His trial cannot take place before the middle of June. " Cabul affairs still give cause of uneasiness. It is stated that many Afghans and natives of Central Asia, who form a considerabl e portion of our irre. gular cavalry regiments, continually receive letters from their friends, alluding to the increasing power of Russia in Central Asia, and the designs of Persia under the influence of the Northern Power. Let ters from Cabul state that a chieftain, who did good service during the mutinies, is engaged in raising a cavalry force in Affghanistan for probable service in British pay and under British officers. " The Hon. Mr. Forbes, M.C.S, has retired from the service. Mr. Forbes represented Madras in the Legislative Council of India. "A series of interesting minutes upon Education in India, from the pen of the late Lord Macaulay has been discovered at Calcutta.
