TUE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. (From the Correspondent of the Times.) NEW YORK, APRIL 15. President Lincoln has so conducted himself dur ing his short tenure of office as to have acquired a high reputation for prudence and sagacity. In the estimation of the whole North, Democratic as well as Republican, he is a man who looks before he leaps, and who never takes a step in advance with out having made sure of the step preceding. But the haste with which on Thursday last he issued his quasi-imperial proclamation for a general thanksgiving on Sunday has slightly shaken public confidence in the wisdom of the counsellors by whom he is surrounded, if not in his own patience and self-control. Without waiting for the official re port of Gen. Halleck or the subordinate General in command at the bloody struggle of Pittsburgh Landing (the most obstinately contested battle that has yet been fought in this unnatural and unnecessary war), and relying entirely upon the newspaper telegrams published on Wednesday morning, which were as exultant as they were un truthful, he penned a request to all the churches that they should offer up prayers and thanksgivings "for the signal victories which it had pleased Al mighty God to vouchsafe to the land and naval forces of the Union." Had the President waited for official details of the battle—which, perhaps, ho would have done had he or his advisers been less anxious to celebrate the first anniversary of the Confederate assault on Fort Sumter by a solemn act of national gratitude for victories achieved in the interval—he would have learned, in common with the whole people, that the victory which he so pre maturely claimed was no victory at all. At the best, it was a drawn battle, and one so narrowly as well as obstinately contested, that both sides may with equal reason claim the honours of the day. Had the battle ended on the Sunday, when it was commenced by Generals Johnston and Beauregard, the dearly bought victory would have remained with the Confederates ; and on Monday, when Gen. Buell arrived to the rescue of the North, he did no more than save the army of Gen. Grant from anni hilation, and enable it to retain its original position ; and this boast of a victory which was not won, and which if it were was barren of any result but the slaughter of thousands of men on both sides, is not the worst feature in the President's proclamation. Surely, in declaring that the "recent victories had averted from the country the dangers of foreign in tervention and invasion" he made an impolitic and indiscreet confession ? And would it not have been wiser as well as more dignified if the President, be lieving or disbelieving in this particular victory, had reiterated the bold defiance of Mr. Seward, uttered when the prospects of the Federal cause were as dark as they now are bright, that the Union would fight its own battle against its own children, unen cumbered by the aid or advice, and unimpeded by the intervention, of any state or Empire in the world ? It was not prudent in the President to admit that such a danger existed, or that thanks were due to Almighty God for its removal ; for the European world, that looks with much interest and anxiety on the progress of a war which inflicts such present, and is likely to inflict so much future injury upon the commerce and manufacture of its greatest Powers, will feel inclined to ask if the danger of foreign intervention remains as imminent as it was before in the President's estimation, or if it be his belief that such intervention is only to be obviated by the speedy triumph of the Federal arms. The proclamation, viewed in this light, appears to be a double mistake, and one that is more than sufficient to place the President in a false position in the eyes of his own people. General Beauregard, whose official report of the battle hasbeen received through the Southern'papers, which occasionally find their way to this city, does not admit that the Confederate army was defeated at Pittsburgh Landing, though its Commander-in- C hief, General Albert Sydney Johnston, was slain. That the Federals did not gain the victory is evi dent from the fact that both belligerents retain the positions which they held before the battle and that Corinth is still in the possession of the Confederate army. The loss of life on both days and on both sides appears to have been frightful. The ferocity with which the armies fought shows how fiercely the passions of the people were excited, and that in this, as in other civil wars, the mutual hatred and exasperation of the combatants grow with the dimensions and the duration of the quarrel. And the conviction which seems to have forced itself upon the President's mind, that foreign interven tion is probable, will perhaps take root in other quarters if many more such sanguinary and bootless battles are to be fought before the combatants lay down their arms, or restore that peace, harmony, and union for which the President has so solemnly invoked the assistance of the Almighty. The siege of Yorktown, which has now lasted for eight days, threatens to be a tedious business. The Confederates, commanded by Generals Lee and Magruder, have received large reinforcements, and have so strengthened a position originally very formidable as to make it evident to the besiegers that the work before them will try all their patience and skill, as well as all their courage. General M'Clellan is reported to have demanded a reinforcement of 40,000 men, and to have been refused. Whether the report be strictly correct I cannot say, but it is believed by many of the General's friends in this city ; and it is no secret that the head of the War Department, and other persons in high places put not the President, or Mr. Seward), bear the general no goodwill. They look with growing disfavour on the position which he has acquired in the country, and would not be i sorry if h e were d e f ea t e d i n a p i tc h e d b a ttl e of m pqrta.r.ce enough to ruin his reputation by its loss, though not, it is to be hoped, for the honour of human nature, in a battle of magnitude sufficient to imperil the safety of the Republic. But General M'Clellan may perhaps be able to foil his political adversaries by the capture of Yorktown, in which case ho will have amply justified the high expecta- , tions that have been formed of his military genius, and raised himself to the very highest place in the estimation of his countrymen. His task, however, is arduous, and it cannot be concealed or denied that he will fight against serious odd, even if the Admi nistration should decide upon sending him the rein forcements which he demands. In the remarkable struggle before Yorktown, towards which all eyes are now directed, the part played by the redoubtable Merrimac is not a little exciting. The presence of that vessel and her five consorts, the Yorktown, the Patrick Henry, the Teazer, the Raleigh, and the Empire—two, if not three, of them ironplated like herself—is quite suf ficient to keep in check the whole Federal navy in Hampton Roads, and is admitted to be fully equal to an additional force of 50,000 men for the defence of the Confederate position. The Merrimac,whether under the comniand of Capt. Pegrim, late of the Nashville, or under that of Commodore Tatnall, as some recent reports allege, is ably han dled,an d keeps the whole countryv in e fev er o f anx i e ty. Th e manner in which, on Friday, the Patrick Henry and the Teazer, under shelter et the Merrimac, captured three Union vessels under the very eyes and almost within range of the guns of the Monitor and the Fe deral fleet, and towed them , 0 t Norfolk, was an andexhibition of cool daring and effrontery, which has m greatly exasperated the Federal grin s and navy, and elicited a fresh howl of indignation against vlr. Secretary Wells for not having ordered the capture and destruction of the offending monster 'when she lay for five weeks disabled and undergoing r epa i rs in the dock at Norfolk. The Monitor lies in wait, with her steam up, ready for all contingencies, but does not seem to be convinced enough of her own strength to offer battle, though she may at any time be compelled to accept it. The British war steamer Rinaldo, the same that conveyed Messrs. Slidell and Mason to Bermuda, and the French war steamers the Catinat and Gassendi, are anchored in Hampton Roads in such a position as to command a full view of the engagement whenever it may take place. Much regret and disappointment are everywhere expressed that the Special War Cor respondent of the 7inzeB did not apply to the captain of the Rinaldo for the hospitalities so churlishly de nied him by the Wae-office at Washington. Had he been allowed a place on board of that vessel, he would have had the opportunity of describing a sea-fight more memorable in every way than the tamer operations of the siege of Yorktown, and the reports of which will be read with avidity in every portion of the world, There seems to be something wrong in the Fede ral calculations :of speedy victory b )th at New Orleans and at Savannah. No reliable news has for many days been received from either quarter, though the public was led to expect the surrender of Fort Pulaski and the close investment, if not fall, of Sa vannah, more than a week ago. The precise nature of the operations in the mouths of the Mississippi and in Lakes Borgne and Pontchartrain, for the capture of New Orleans, is kept a profound secret, but we are told that startling news from that quar ter may be expected at any moment. The last re ceived is, that the Federal forces have taken posses sion of Pass Christian, in the State of Mississippi, 60 miles from New Orleans and 30 from Ship Island. Gen. Mitchell, formerly of the Cincinnati Obser vatory, and whose name may be known to English readers as the author of a very popular book on astronomy, originally published in America under the title of the" Planetary and Stellar Worlds," and reprinted in England as "The Orbs of Heaven," has just won his first honours as a soldier by a rapid movement from Nashville, in Tennessee, to Hunts ville, in Alabama. Ho took possession of this little city without much resistance, and he has since suc ceeded in making himself master of about 100 miles of the railroad connecting it with Memphis and Charleston—a very important acquisition that in terrupts the communications between the Confede rate armies in the Southern Atlantic States and the whole West, where they are still in a position to offer resistance. One of the peculiarities of this remarkable war, which can only be explained on the supposition that the cause of the Southern Uontederaey has the sym pathies of men and women in high positions in the North, is the fact that while the Northern Generals never succeed in learning anything whatever of the plans or movements, the strength or weakness, of the Confederates, the Confederate Generals seem to be kept fully informed of all that is going on in the North. It is not the newspapers that convey the information, for the rigid censorship over the war news not only keeps in secresy the things that ought not to be known to the enemy, but many things that ought to be known to everybody. It cannot he supposed that men in the confidence of Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet, or in that of the General officers of the Federal army, betray their trust and give infor mation to the enemy ; neither can it be believed that " birds of the air carry the matter." The public, driven to suspect or blame somebody, must therefore come to the conclusion that the wives and daughters of influential people who have access to State secrets, are the delinquents through the unguardedness of their husbands and fathers. How they contrive to get the information conveyed into the Confederate lines is a puzzle which it is useless to attempt to unravel, for both in war and in peace the ladies, as everybody knows, have 'winning ways, and stoop to conquer. The latest instance of their treachery has been published, on the authority of General Wool, in a Philadelphia newspaper, which states that a circular issued by the Confederates in Yorktown was picked up on the march by one of the aides-de camp of the Federal Gen. Hamilton, containing a full description of Gen. 31'Ciellan's proposed march and attack on that city, together with Gen. Ma gruder's plan for defeating the whole programme. The statement adds that "the enemy must have re ceived the information from a high source several weeks ago." If the ladies of Washington cannot be taught their duty to their country, surely the gen tlemen who are responsible for the discretion of their wives and daughters should learn to be respon sible for their own. If they cannot put a guard upon their martial and paternal confidences when the country is in danger, they are neither true statesmen nor good patriots. The Tax Bill, having reached the Senate, has been found unworkable in many of its details, besides being wrong in principle, and vexatiously inquisi torial in its mode of assessment. It is certain to have considerable modifications in that body—if it be not superseded altogether by a much simpler mcaeure, based upon the recent experience of Great Britain. Although the North American Union will be the most heavily taxed country in the world, if this war is ever to be paid for, there is clearly no necessity why the hardships inflicted by all taxes, let them fall how or where they will, should be aggravated by costliness of collection, and a universal system of inquisition into private affairs, not in any degree to be compensated by its productiveness to revenue. The bill for the emancipation of the slaves in the district of Columbia was finally passed by the House of Representatives on Friday, after an earnest attempt to prolong the discussion by the Pro-Sla very party, and a no less decided and more suc cessful attempt on the part of the friends of aboli tion to hurry it through by the application of the five-minute rule to each speaker. It now only awaits the consent of the President to become law. If he do not oppose his veto—which the bulk of the Pro-Slavery and Democratic party are urging him to do—the doom of slavery is sealed in Mary land, Virginia, Kentucky, and the whole of the Border States. In this case it is difficult to see what has to become of the liberated Negroes, unless some scheme of colonisation be adopted. If they go south into the Cotton States, they will once again he sold into slavery; if they go to the West, they will find the Legislatures of every State passing laws to prevent their admission ; and if they go to New York or the New England States in any considerable numbers, they will find it impossible to procure a subsistence, and will array against their admission thousands of property holders and tl;:p,'..vcrs who may have no personzl or ethnologi cal objection to them as Negroes, and who may even have been Abolitionists in their time, but who will have a very great social objection to them as paupers, to be maintained in id'ences at the ex pense of the community or suffered to go at large to swell the ranks of crime and mendicancy. BEALvir OF LONDON _DURING THE WEEK. (From the Regzstrar-Generals Weekly Return.) The weekly return, issued by authority of the Registrar-General, shows that the total number of deaths in London was 1,252 in the week that ended 12th April ; in the next it rose to 1,331; and in the week that ended last Saturday the number further increased and became 1,394. The average number of deaths (corrected) in the weeks corresponding with last week of the ten years 1852-61 is 1,246. The present return exhibits an excess over the average of 148. The births registered in the week exceed the deaths in the same period by 565. The increase in the mortality over that of the pre vious seek was not caused by the zymotic or epi demic class of diseases, for fatal cases referred to this elass declined from 362 to 321. The increase arose partly from phthisis (or consumption), the mortality from which was very heavy, the deaths included under this head being 194. The numbers under phthisis in the two previous weeks were re spectively 154 and 174; the average (corrected) for last week is 176. Disease of the liver was another cause of increase ; it was fatal in the last two weeks in 12 and 23 cases. Fourteen women died in the week from diseases incidental to childbirth. There were 32 deaths from measles, 65 from scarlatina, 19 from diphtheria, 18 from croup, 47 from whooping cough, 86 from typhus. Scarlatina still appears to be exceedingly preva lent and fatal in the sub-district, Lambeth Church, second part. Sixteen deaths from scarlatina, out of 35 from all causes, were registered in the week, and added to those in the preceding three weeks make a total of 58 since the 29th of March. It is stated in the report from St. James, Ber mondsey, that there is much diphtheria in the neighbourhood of Ituuel-cottages, and a great dis position to feve r . Thirteen neat he from typhus occurred in the London Fever Hospit a l . The deaths of eight nonagenarians are recorded ; of these, three widows attained the ages respectively of 95, 96, and 93 years. Last week the births of 994 b oys and 965 girls, in oil 1,959 children , were regi s t ered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1852- 61 the average number (corrected) Was 1,887. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY- MR. FOSTER AND LORI) HOBART'S REPORT ON THE FINANCES OF TURKEY. The report of Mr. Foster and Lord Hobart on the financial condition of Turkey, to which fre quent allusion was made in the discussions on the subject of the late Turkish loan, has now been laid before Parliament. It forms a parliamentary paper of 45 pages, and gives a very complete account of the present state of the finances of Turkey ; while the valuable suggestions which it contains will afford the greatest assistance to the persons charged with the duty of introducing reforms into the finan cial administration of that country. It is a document -which will require to be studied in extenso by our capitalists and by those engaged in the Levant trade; but the following abstract of its contents will be of use to the general reader. The tables of revenue and expenditure are taken from the accounts for the Turkish year 1275 (1859 60). INCOME. The revenue is stated to be derived from the fol lowing sources:— 1. Verghi or income tax £2,221,320 2. Rachat militaire, or payments for exemption from military service 476,873 3. Tithes 2,844,515 4. Tax on sheep 706,332 5. Tax on pigs 83,620 6. Customs duties .. 1,385,438 7. Duty on tobacco .. .. 205,822 8. Duty on fish .. .. 67,899 9. Tax on contracts 00 00 Of 00 18,809 10. Stamp duties .. 24,909 11. Excise 37,527 12. Registration of Tapou land titles and trans fers 00 00 00 00 00 55,400 13. Miscellaneous duties (mostly different de scriptions of trade licenses) .. 813,258 14_ The Post-office .. 50.142 15, Tho Clnvornmpnt Printing office .. 7,330 16. Miscellaneous State property (chiefly derived from the rent of various buildings belong ing to Government) .. 27,658 17. Fisheries .. 16,020 18. Forests .. 5,288 19. Government farms .. 62,486 20. Salt works .. 85,537 21. Mines .. 00 Of 00 00 9,150 22. Sales of real property belonging to the State 4,040 23. Tributes 374,296 24. Revenue derived from the arsenal 118,719 25. Revenue derived from the Tidjaret Court .. 6,216 Total .. .. £9,711,608 A full account is given of each of these sources of revenue, and suggestions are made for removing the inequalities which exist in regard to several of them in different provinces, as well as for introduc• ing other improvements. The verghi and rachat militaire, in particular, are shown to operate very unequally in different districts. With regard to the tithes, it is stated that the Porte has already inaugurated a scheme by which it is hoped that the grievances complained of will be remedied; each village is to pay its tithe direct to the Government, the management and collection being vested in a council elected by the inhabitants. Various suggestions are made with regard to the customs and tobacco duties, more especially with the view of improving the mode of collection. The tax on contracts and the stamp-duties are not nearly so productive as they might be rendered. The miscellaneous daties are very vexatious and burdensome, and are for the most part recom mended to be abolished. The Post-office does not yield more than about £50,000 per annum. The postal service is very inefficient, and to a great extent in the hands of foreign companies. The revenue derived from fisheries, forests, salt-works, and mines, is represented to be small compared with what it would be under better management, and if the difficulties were removed which now im pede the operation of persons engaged in commer cial enterprises connected with them: With regard to the other sources of public revenue not referred to here, it may be stated that the real property belonging to the State is recom mended to be sold, some alterations are suggested respecting " Tapou" lands, and excise duties are reported to be kept at a lower scale than they should be, owing to the stipulations of commercial treaties. EXPENDITURE. The following is an abstract of the budget of expenditure for the same year :. 1. Interest and sinking fund of the foreign debt .. .. .. .. .. .. 1 - 1391,023 2. Interest and sinking fund of the home debt .. •10 .. •• •• 686,800 3. Mecca pilgrimage, and expenses con nected with the Holy Places .. .. 384,252 4. Civil List .. 1,253,878 5.

" Finance .. 1,022,348 Total f .. £11,088,583 To which is to be added an extra sum of £261,336, on account of loss in the retiring of metallic cur rency. It appears, therefore, that Tor the financial year 1859 60 the expenditure exceeded the revenue by £1,376,975. It is.,stated that great abuses exist with regard to the application of the sums granted for the Mecca pilgrimage, and the maintenance of public edifices at Jerusalem, Mecca, and Medina. There is no efficient control over the expenditure of the different government offices, and in particular there is no person vest( d with the powers which a Minister of Finance ought to possess, in fact it can scarcely be said that such a personage exists. A plan is proposed for remedying this state of things, and details are given of the manner in which the duties of the Finance Department should be carried on. The deficit for the current year 1861.62 is estimated at about £2,220,000, of which sum £1,700,000 is the excess of expenditure over revenue; and £1,220,000 represents the loss arising from various ca'ises connected with the disordered state of the finances. After alluding to the small amount of taxation compared with the resources of the empire, and stating that the taxation is only burdensome so far as it is ill-adjusted, Mr. Foster and Lord Hobart mention the means by which they propose that the revenue should be raised to the amount required to meet the expenditure. 1. That Constantinople and its environs should no longer be exempted from direct taxation. (Cal culated to produce a sum of £500,000 per annum.) 2. That a tax should be imposed on male servants. (Calculated to produce £450,000.) 3. That a limited concession should be made of the very large amount of " Vahouf " property now in the hands of private individuals. (Calculated to yield £1,200,000.) 4. That an increase should be made in the tobacco and stamp duties. (Calculated to produce £50,000 each.) 5. That the tithe in Anatolia should be collected direct by the State ; by which it is estimated that a further sum of £120,000 would be realised. In all, £2,370,000. • Mr. Foster and Lord Hobart do not seek to raise the revenue to mare than a sum of £2,200,000 be yond its present amount ; of which £1,700,000 would equalise revenue and expenditure, and the additional £500,000 would enable the extra liabili ties of the State to be paid off gradually in the course of a few years. They do not, however, merely confine their re commendations to this plan, but conclude their report with a reference in detail to the various taxes which require readjustment, and to the different improvements which it would be desirable to intro duce in order to place the finances of Turkey on a satisfactory footing. ! ~, BENSON'S WATCHES AND CLOCKS..—" Perf; mechanism."—Morning Post.

'TALI AND HIR GUA.RDLIN. letter from Turin, dazed April 23, says an in- ..nt has just taken plan) of which I can guaran ae the authenticity. The Prince Humbert is a young man of 18; he is not handsome, but he is very intelligent, lively,brave, full of noble instincts, and elevated tendencies. His education has been very much cared for than that of his father, who was strangely neglected by Charles Albert. Vic tor Emmanuel has given to his sons professors who, if they be not very profound philosophers, are at least honourable and moral men, who impart to their pupils good sentiments, mingled with scien tific teaching, not perhaps the newest one, wholly free from a dash of superstition. It is especially desired by the King that, his sons shall be made good soldiers, according to the traditions of the House of Savoy—for it does not suffice to have wen Italy, or to have given her a single " Re Galantuo mo," it is necessary to be able to preserve and de fend her. To perfect the education of Prince Humbert, who is the heir of the Crown, the King lately decided that he should travel through Europe and America, in order to see with his own eyes the condition of men and society. The travels of the Prince were to commence with England at the mo ment when modern civilisation displays there all her wonders, and puts into action the grand practi cal drama of the Exhibition. All at once, there fore, the young prince should touch the summit of the pyramid, and should behold in the English people the power of freedom, and in the products of industry gathered in London the magic of science and progress. In order to visit England, Humbert would have to pass through Paris. Accordingly the Italian Government simply conveyed a brief an nouncement of the intended journey to M.Thouvenel, in order that it might be communicated to the Em peror; whilo at the tillltiff time unevalier Nigra. the Italian Minister, made a direct notification to his Majesty by order of the King himself, and as an act of special courtesy. For Prince Hum bert merely intended to pass through the capital of France in the first instance, reserving his official visit to the Emperor for a more convenient moment. Behold, however, the result—the Emperor has ex pressed to Victor Emmanuel his desire that Prince Humbert should not visit England. This is per haps really the Emperor's object, but the explana tions under which that object has been dissembled are these :—Prince Humbert, even in passing through Paris, cannot dispense with paying a visit to the Court. Now, in France the house of Savoy is supposed to represent antagonism to the Papacy, which certainly would not obtain for the young prince the favour of the Catholic party, the highest expression of which is embodied in the Empress. Prince Humbert could not go to Court without see ing Eugenie, provided she was there to be seen. Therefore one of two things would have happened —either the Empress, to avoid meeting the son of one excommunicated by the Pope, would have quitted the Tuileries and set out for St. Cloud; or, if she had to meet the Piedmontese prince, would have received him with a coldness which could not be misunderstood. Of course, all this could not fail to offend deeply Victor Emmanuel, as well as to exasperate the Emperor and cause some annoyance to the Empress. Therefore, Napoleon 111. has begged of the King of Italy to put off his son's English tour to some more propitious season, and thus to deliver his Imperial Majesty from a family quarrel and from a petulant demonstration of petti coat politics. I do not know yet what answer Victor Emmanuel has given, or how the thing will be arranged. I can, however, pledge myself for the authenticity of these preliminaries to the young prince's journey —can also undertake to say that the present Italian Government is not of a constitution to ignore the prohibition and to send the prince by Switzerland, the Rhine, and Holland. The journey, therefore, will not take place at all unless some •mezz® termine can be found. This, then, is one of the consequences of the occupation of Rome. France has replaced the Austrians in the guardianship of Italy. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH COAST RAILWAY. A special general meeting of proprietors was' held yesterday, at the Bridge House Hotel, Lon don-bridge, for the consideration of the following bills now pending in Parliament : "A bill to enable the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company to enlarge their sta tions at London-bridge and the Bricklayers' Arms, and to alter certain roads, streets, and bridges, and for other purposes. " A bill to authorise the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company to make certain new lines of railway in the counties of Surrey and Sus sex, and for other purposes. " A bill for making a railway from the Sutton station of the Croydon and Epsom branch of the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway to Banstead and Epsom Downs, in the county Surrey. "A bill for enabling the Mid-Sussex and Mid hurst Junction Railway Company to extend the time for completing their railway ; to sell or lease their undertaking to the London,Brighton,and South Coast Railway Company,'and for other purposes." Mr. L. Schuster, chairman of the company, pre sided. The CHAIRMAN explained that the first and se cond bills had already received the sanction of the shareholders at the ordinary meeting of the com pany. For the enlargement of the stations at Lon don bridge and the Bricklayers' Arms, and also to carry on their steam-boat traffic the company sought powers to raise £350,00). The object of the second bill was to authorise a line to connect the Brighton line with the London, Chatham, and Dover, by the Barrington-road Junction at Brixton, and to con nect their system with the whole of the north and west of England by the West London Railway. The bill also included power to construct a short line at Newhaven. The other bills were submitted because they contained clauses enabling the Brigh ton Company to enter into working and other ar rangements with the promoters, but the powers were only permissive, and could not be exercised without the future sanction of the shareholders. Resolutions approving of the several bills were proposed and agreed to, and a bill authorising a line from Horsham and Dorking not being in a suffi ciently advanced state to be submitted to the share holders, a further resolution, adjourning the meet ing for a fortnight, was adopted. The CHAIRMAN stated, at the conclusion of the meeting, that on Easter Monday the Brighton lino carried 132,402 people safely and conveniently, and without interfering at all with the ordinary traffic. MR. TRAIN'S TRA3ITVAY. Last night the third great public meeting with reference to the proceedings token against Mr. Train, was held in the Hawkstone Hall, Waterloo road. Shortly after eight o'clock Mr. West was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN having opened the business of the meeting in terms highly eulogistic of Mr. Train and his tramway, Mr. LEE came forward to move the first resolu tion, and in doing so he referred to the establish ment of omnibuses, which, he said, were a very great improvement on the modes of conveyance which were previously in existence, and also to the still greater improvement which had been effected by the establishment of railways. An election was about to take place in Lambeth, and Mr. Frederic Doulton, who would no doubt be returned as their member, was pledged to go into Parliament as a supporter of tramways. (Cheers.) There would also be elections throughout the borough for vestry men, and no one should be elected who would not be pledged to give support to the people's tramway. (Cheers.) A variety of details were entered into by Mr. Lee for the purpose of showing the number of advantages which the people would reap from the establishment of tram ways. He concluded by moving the following resolution:—" That in the opinion of this meeting the tramway as introduced by Mr. Train is a great public convenience, and that it is the duty of the people of all classes to assist in every legal way in procuring the continu ance of the present, and the, construction of tram ways generally throughout the kingdom, and espe cially to give their support only to those candidates for vestrymen and members of Parliament who are pledged to support the tramway movement." Mr.PRITCHARD Seeunaud the icoollatlect,o.a.l..m. as a proof of the favourable opinion of the public, he could state that during the past week so many as 25,000 people had travelled by the tramway from Westminster-bridge to Kennington Park. (Cheers.) The resolution was then agreed to almost unani mously. Mr. UTTING moved the second resolution, and said he lived very near to the tramway, and had there fore an ample opportunity of forming a correct opinion regarding it, and he was able to bear his testimony to the advantages the tramway confer red upon the community. (Cheers.) He then proceeded to point out the great inconvenience of the present omnibus system, and concluded by moving the second resolution, which was to the effect that the meeting concurred in the demonstration which had been made in favour of the tramway at the large meetings which had been already held on the sub ject. Mr. HENRETTE seconded the resolution, and at some length advocated the advantages which the people would derive from the establishment of tram ways. Mr. LEIGHTON spoke in support of the resolu tion, which was agreed to. Mr. APPERSON moved the next resolution to the effect that the agitation which had successfully commenced in favour of tramways should not be suffered to subside, but should be continued and ex tended. Mr. STREET seconded th© resolution, which was also put and agreed to. Mr. PRICE moved another resolution, pledging the meeting to give every support to the establish ment of tramways. Mr. POOLE seconded the resolution, which was agreed to. Mr. TRAIN then came forward, and was loudly cheered,:and proceeded at some length to address the meeting. In the course of his observations he com plained that he had been convicted of a nuisance at Kingston without his side of the question being heard by the jury. That, he said, was a mode of proceeding he could not understand, and of which he thought he had just reason to complain. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Frederic Doulton, the favourite candidate for Lambeth, and who had promised to attend, here entered the meeting, and was root:dyed with re peated reunds of cheering. Mr. West being obliged to retire from the chair, Mr. John Williams, one of the churchwardens of the parish, was called to preside. Mr. DOULTON then came forward, and was again loudly cheered. He said the present was the fourth meeting he had attended that evening, and he then proceeded to repeat the explanation of his political principles which he had given at the meetings he had previously attended. He then spoke strongly in support of Mr. Train's tramway, said he had the honour of being one of those who had been convicted as a vestryman of a nuisance, and added that he should be ashamed to see Mr. Train left alone to fight this battle, which he contended must in the end be successful. Mr. Doulton concluded by say ing that he should have the honour of meeting them again in that Hall on Thursday evening. (Loud cheers.) The following resolution was then moved by Mr. E. DRESSER ROGERS, and seconded by Mr. TRAIN, and both gentlemen bore the strongest testimony to the fitness of Mr. Doulton to represent the borough of Lambeth : " That this meeting, having heard from Mr. Frederic Doulton a statement of his political opi nions, records its satisfaction therewith, and pledges itself to use every effort to secure his return at the present election." The resolution was agreed to with acclamation, and Mr. Doulton having expressed his acknow ledgments, the meeting separated. The Hall was densely crowded. I TV INTELLIGENCE.-April 2.9. BAIL COURT. Sittings at Nisi Prius at Westminster.—(Before Mr. Justice Wightman and a Common Jury.) GATWOOD V. ALEXANDER-SLANDER. This was an action for slander between two sur veyors, the defendant having charged the plaintiff with stealing his billbook. The defendant pleaded not guilty. Mr. Lawton and Mr. john Cooke were counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. Collier, Q.C., and Mr. V, Williams were counsel for the defendant. It appeared that in October last the defendant engaged the plaintiff to do some surveying work at Kentish-town at 5 guineas per week. The defen dant afterwards sent the plaintiff to do some sur veying work at Dorking, and as he would require the use of a billhook defendant lent him one he had in his office. After defendant got to Dorking he informed the defendant that he had been offered 6 guineas per week, and that if he was not paid that sum he should leave. Defendant declined to accede to the plaintiff's terms, and he left the work, leav ing the borrowed bill Look at his own house. The defendant wrote to the plaintiff complaining of his conduct, and asking for the return of £5 which the plaintiff had been paid, but had left the work un finished, and said he would expose his conduct to the profession. At a subsequent interview defen dant told the plaintiff that he had stolen his bill hook ; that ho should treat him as a common thief, and send a policeman to his house if he did not re turn the billhook. Plaintiff said he Phpuld not return it until a policeman had been sent r for it. As the defendant had threatened to expose - the plaintiff to the profession, the latter was bound to bring this action in vindication of his character. The defendant said he had been inconvenienced by the plaintiff's conduct, and he was very angry with him. He admitted that he had told the plain tiff that he should treat him as a thief unless he returned the billhook. Plaintiff afterwards called on the defendant, and in the presence of a person he brought with him, he asked the defendant three times in a very offensive manner "Am I a thief ? " Defendant replied each time "If you don't return the billhook I shell say you are." The engagement between them was by the day. Ultimately the jury returned a verdict for the defendant. BAHIA AND SAN FRANCISCO. The ninth otdivary general meeting of this com pany took place yesterday at the London Tavern— Mr. Alex. Miller, deputy chairman, presiding. The report, which has already appeared, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said he deeply regretted the absence of the chairman, as he had no doubt that he had prepared some statement in reference to the present position and prospects of the line. However, there was nothing that the chairman himself could state that was not perfectly satisfactory in regard to the ulti mate success of the undertaking. He thought that at the end of the year the directors would be able to present themselves to the proprietors with such a statement as would prove that all which had been promised had been duly carried out. In answer to a question from a proprietor, the CHAIRMAN said there was no doubt that the capital of the company would be amply sufficient to com plete the line , and provide all the necessary rolling stock for working it. In fact, the whole of the roll ing stock which the company had undertaken to l i supply had already been sent from this country, and there was a surplus of capital that could be ap plied to the purchase of additional rolling stock. The CHAIMAN then stated that the whole of the calls had been paid up, and there was not a single shilling of arrears in this country. The report was adopted, and the retiring direc tors and auditor were re-elected. The meeting then separated with the usual vote of thanks. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Sittings at Nisi Prins in Middlesex.—(Before Mr. Justice Williams and a Common Jury.) BARNES V. PHILLIPS—FALSE IMPRISONMENT. The defendant in this case was a rag merchant, in business in Duke-street, Blackfriars, and plaintiff, down to March, 1861, was in hi 4 service. On the morning of the 17th October following two sacks of rags were iound removed from the defendant's warehouse and placed in a yard a(ij oining ; and Mr. Goodhall, a neighbour, informed the defendant that he had seen a man ,whom he described, leaving the spot in kticL Eari) is thmorning of the 17th of October. In consequence of this information suspi cion fell upon the plaintiff, and defendant went to I his house and induced him to go out to have some thing to drink. At the public house, Goodhall and a policeman were waiting, and Goodhall having ex pressed his opinion that the plaintiff was the person whom he had seen on the morning of the 17th Oc tober, he was taken into custody upon a charge of robbery, and committed for trial, but was ultimately acquitted. The present action was therefore brought and defendant pleaded a special plea, setting out the circumstances which he contendfld gave him good ground for suspecting the plaintiff Of the robbery. Mr. Ribton and Mr. Daly appeared foi the plain - tiff; and Mr. Hawkins for the defendant. The jury, after hearing evidence on both sides, expressed their opinion that the defendant had not reasonable grounds for believing that the plaintiff was guilty, and they assessed the damages at £2O. His Lordship gave the defendant leave to move for a non-snit, if the court should think there was no legal evidence that the defendant had caused the plaintiff to be arrested ; or, if they should think that enough of the special plea was proved to estab lish an answer to the action. Later in the day, Mr. Hawkins applied to the court sitting in banco, and obtained a rule nisi to enter a verdict for defendant, or for a new trial, on the ground that the verdict was against the weight of evidence. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) BXECUN'ION AT DUMFRIES'. Yesterday morning Mary Reid, alias Timney, was executed at Due afries for the wilful inierder of Ann Hann ah at Carp, shad, in the stewartry of ,Kirk cudbright, eni the 13'Lli of January last. The cir cumstances of the crime for which the unhappy woman thus forfeited her life to the law were briefly these :—The deceased, Ann Hannah, live& with her two brothers, William Hannah and Lockhart Paterson Hannah, at Carpshad, which is a small farm situated on the road to the famous Glenkens. The house in which they lived stands ;tap the roadside, and about; 50 yards from it was the' cottage of the prisoner, who was the wife of a lab wring man named Francis Timney. The nearest house* to these two is a quarter of a mile distant.. The de cIY duties of the deceased were to tend the cattle an, perform other similar offices about the farm. On the 12th of January last, the morning' of the murder, . her two brothers went away, about 9 o'clock, to w , Irk at a place about three miles off, wed alone in the house. She was leaving the clece , left well, and was seen well a little before 10 o'clock by some se!, 'OOl girls, who were passing on their way to school. About 1 o'clock a woman named M'Lellan, pass ed the deceased's cottage on her way to bake cakes for the prisoner, who had sent for her that morneug, called, and found the deceased lying in pools' of her own blood in the middle of her own kitchen. She called assistance, chen. oor woman's skull VMS and it was found that the p fractured in four plaevs, t wo of her ribs were broken, her arms were disenlon. red, and other parts of her body were wounded. )3, 1 00d was splashed about, a butcher's knife was foie nd on the floor t covered with blood, and also a potel- marked with blood and hair. The deceased was* ,no quite dead, but the only words she uttered -when lifted on abed , were "Oh dear !" She died tihat eve.ning. The neighbours remarked to the prisoner th.lt it was strange she had heard nothing of the murJer ; bat she said she had never been out oer her house all day. Upon search being made in her house, how ever, clothes marked with blood were found tied up in a bundle in a dark loft, and some of the clothes which she wore when accosted by the police were also stained. The bloodstained tareav dress ha which the things found in the loft were wrappeci was identified by the prisoner's own children. as that which she had WWII on the morn ing of the murder. A wooden mallet which had been recently washed was found behind a meal tub, marked with blood and hair. Before the mur der the prisoner was without money ; after it there was 7s. 7d. found in her house, and also some tea, and sugar which were missing from the cottage of the deceased. When apprehended the prisoner endeavoured to criminate her mother, for whom, however, an alibi was clearly established. It ap peared at the trial that on the morning of the mur der the deceased's brother lent the prisoner's hus band 2s. 6d. as he was going away to work. The deceased had formerly granted the prisoner small: loans, but had lately refused to continue them. They had had differences about the prisoner taking away wood. At the trial it will be remembered the prisoner made a heart-rending appeal to Lord Peas when he was sentencing her to death, crying out, " Oh, mee Lord, dinna do that !" " Give me anything butt that, let the Lord send for me !" " Oh, my weans V' After the prisoner was condemned to deatle strenuous endeavours were made in Dumfries to obtain a commutation of the sentence, that the town might be spared the sickening spectacle of the pub lic execution of a woman. A general pbtition was sent to the Home-office, bearing above ZOOO sig natures, and one signed exclusively by 3 , 187 women. Moreover a deputation of ladies waited. upon Sir George Grey. Meanwhile the prisoner made a confession of her crime, assigning as the principal motive jealousy' Of the deceased, who she believed had acquired am influence over her husband. She said she was going out to gather wood for the fire, when deceased asked. her if she was going to " thieve" more of her wood. High words and some blows followed, after which the prisoner went home. Some time afterwards she proceeded to the deceased's house to give her a good beating, but with no intention to kill her. The deceased met her with a kick, and blows having been exchanged the prisoner seized a wooden mallet with which the deceased had struck her, but which had fallen down. With this she struck her a blow which felled her, and in the heat of passion, followed it up with others. On Friday official intimation was received that Sir G. Grey saw no ground for interfering in the prisoner's behalf, and the law would be allowed to take its course. The scaffold was oreefisd on the east side of the gaol. Calcraft was the executioner, and he per formed his dread office after the usual preliminaries. The spectators were not more than 2,000 or 3,000. The prisoner when placed on the drop was much. agitated. Death appeared to be instantaneous. Great order prevailed. The body wag afterwards cut down and buried in the precincts of the gaol. HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE LATE GRAND DUCHESS OF BADEN. In this case the late Grand Duchess of Baden had made a will under a power with regard to a sum of money which had been settled on her by her god daughter, the marchioness of Bath. The facts of the case have been already reported ; and the sole question before the court was whether a will exe cuted in accordance with the law of Baden, but not valid according to English law, and containing a general revocatory clause, would operate to revoke a special will made under an English power ? Sir C. Cresswell said that he could not decide so important a question on a motion. AitTIS T. ART'S AND JuLiEri. In this case the judge directed that the £5O damages which had been awarded by tho jury should be given to the husband. WIIEDDON V. WIIEDDON AND SMITH. In this casethe respondent had obtained the ver dict of a jury, and one of the witnesses on behalf of the petitioner stood committed to take his trial for perjury. This morning, on the motion of Dr. Spinks, The Court dismissed the petition, and condemned the husband to pay all the respondent's costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--April 29. MANSION-HOUSE.--Henry Clark and Mary Anne Clark, man and wife, were brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with felopionsly receiving a variety of articles, the property C. Davey, the landlord of the Fountain and Star Tavern, Castle court, Lawrence-lane, that had been stolen by a young woman, named Caroline Hodson, who was in his service, and who is under remand for that offence. Jervis, one of the City detectives, stated that in consequence of information he received he went on Monday afternoon to the residence of the prisoners in Westmoreland-street, Pimlico, and found them there, and he inquired whether they knew a female named Caroline Hodson. They both said that they knew her very well, and that she was in the habit of visiting them. He then told them that he was an officer, and that Caroline Hodson was in custody for robbing her master, and that from a letter that was found in her possession he had reason to belisve that sbe had been in the habit of bringing property to them that belonged to her master. Both the pri soners declared that Hodson had never brought anything to their house except a small quantity of tea and sugar and about a quarter of a pound of tobacco. He then searched the house and found a number of plated spoons and forks, some sheets, and a towel, the whole of which articles were identified by Mr. Davey as his property, and as having been stolen during the period the girl Hodson had been in his service. The officer added that he showed the male prisoner a letter that was found in this girl's box, and he admitted that he had written it. Mr. C. Davey, the prosecutor, said that upon Hodson's box being searched a variety of articles were found, and also a letter written by the male prisoner, in which he thanked her for the parcel she had sent, and said that Sally was so pleased with it that she sent her some kisses in return. (A laugh.) The prisoner also stated that he was him self very much pleased with the "smokes" she had sent him. (A laugh.) The Lord Mayor asked what e ,was meant by "smokes." The prosecutor said that this no doubt referred to the cigars and tobacco that had been purloined by the girl Hodson. The letter also requested Hodson to bring another bottle of gin to cheer them up, and went on to say that they were all rather short of cash, but they hoped to be able to " Keep their Toby's" up for some time. (Renewed laughter.) He added that he had seen both prisoners at his house occasionally to visit his servant, and he un derstood that the woman was Hodson's sister. In answer to a question put by his lordship, Mr. Davey stated that Hodson was in his service for 18 months, and he had no doubt from what had been discovered that she must have been robbing him nearly the whole of that time. He added that he was quite Bute that all the articles produced by the officer were his property, and some of them had been missing for several months. _ _ The prisoners were then remanded. A cab driver, named James Richard Ilstone was charged with furious driving on Cornhill, and running over an old man and breaking his leg. Mr. W. J. Marshall, a gentleman residing in Leinster-gardens, Hyde-park, stated he was in Cornhill on Monday afternoon, when he saw the prisoner driving very fast, and he had himself great difficulty in getting out of his way. Almost imme diately afterwzrds he knocked down an old man as he wai crossing the road, and the police interfered and took him into custody. A certificate from St. Thomas's Hospital was put in, by which it appeared that the injured per son had sustained a compound fracture of the left leg. The prisoner was remanded, but bail was taken for his reappearance. LAMBETH.—Mary Ann Davis alias Long Poll, a coarse, masculine, and powerful young woman, well known to the police, and Maria Price, were placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott, on a charge of shoplifting. Mary Ann Hubbard, shopwoman to Mr. Keen, a draper, 48, London-road, Southwark, said that on that morning the prisoners came into her master's shop and asked to look at some buttons, and she placed some before the m . Whil e preten di ng to b e looking at the buttons, she (witness) saw Davis take up 26 yards of print from the counter and put it under her . crinoline. She was about to walk away when witness called to her master, and Price stopped to pay for the buttons. On Saturday last the prisoners were at her master's shop, and bought two pair of stockings, and just as they left she missed two pieces of stuff. On that occasion Price stopped to pay for the stockings, and Davis said, " 1 shall go on before you; make haste after me." Mr. Keen said that suspecting the prisoners he watched them on their coming to his shop, and saw Davis put a piece of print under her clothes. When she was in the act of leaving he stopped and charged her with the theft, and she dropped from her dress the piece of print produced. It measures 26 yards, and is of the value of 10s. 6d. The pri soners had been to his shop on Saturday last, and once before, and on both occasions he missed valuable property when they were gone. Police-constable John Chuter, 123 L, said the prisoner Davis lived with a returned transport named Lear, who on one occasion effected his escape by jumping out of a railway carriage while the train was in motion, and who since then had been summarily convicted of felony. He (Chuter) had frequently seen the prisoners together, and on Saturday observed them come out of the shop of the prosecutor, and he was quite satisfied Davis and Lear got their living, the ono by shoplifting and the other by picking pockets. The prisoners pleaded guilty to the charge, and were committed for six months each to Wandsworth House of Correction. FO.REIGAr lIMIL PACKET LIST. MAILS DUE. AuKralia and Mauritius, via Southampton.
