LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 22, 1862. Instead of vague complaints of the vastness of our taxation, and its enormous augmentation of a million a•year during the last twenty years, Mr. BAXTER takes the practical course of his, in this line, distinguished predecessor. He perseveres in fixing the attention of the House on a large item of useless expenditure till the interest of all parties is aroused. In the matter of expenditure Ministrias, of whatever party, run very mueh in grooves. Perhaps we ought now to change the old figure, and speak of their running, financially, on rails, when twenty millions, additional, repre sents their advance since the days of Sir ROBERT PEEL. One thing is certain, the break can be only gradually screwed up by such guards as M r . BAXTER, who will not, when a good turn 1.4 gained, let the screw twist back again. Mr. MILLS, about a f or t n i g ht ago, di d good ser . . vice by his resolution putting the break on Colonial expenditure, so far as related to providing for the internal order and security of the colonies at their own expense. Mr. BAXTER then proposed an addi tion to the effect that the colonies should also be called upon to aid in their own external defence, especially pointing out that the Imperial Govern ment should not be called on to provide fortifica tions for the colonies, except as the great naval and military posts, such as Gibraltar and Malta. On this latter part of his resolution Mr. BAXTER thinks that faith has hardly been kept, or that at least there was a misunderstanding. The mention of the fortifications was dropped, because according to Mr. FORTESCUE'S representation, no Govern ment would think now of multiplying these fortifications. A few days afterwards, how ever, the Secretary of State for War affirmed, i n apparent opposition to the Under.Secre- Pary fo r t h e Colonies, that the Government l dissented from the part of Mr. BAXTER'S additio n 1 and actualrelating to colonial fortifications, tly y Z 43,000 was o b ta i ne d b y th e Secretary for W ar for the very purpose to which Mr. BAXTE R so strongl objected. P lt p was certainly therefore, the best cou rse to ,oring the subject defi nitely before the House, and to elicit its opinion in a way which should influence the Government. The result of the debate, notwithsttuidiu a the demo- atory speeches of Mr. CAVE and the Minister chiefly concerned, was entirely on the right side. Mr. CAVE naturally said the best he could for the Mauritius, and a case was made out for Bermuda, whether for Corfu we can hardly say. The two positions of Gibraltar and Malta, if they are what they ought to be, would render Corfu of very little value to us. The chief difficulty would be who should have it, though the noisy Greek patriots, whose compatriots are fighting against King OTHO, have had very little difficulty hitherto in preferring the Bavarian dynasty in Greece to the Hanoverian dynasty in England. Sir G. C. LEWIS had really nothing to say against the purport of the resolution, only he did not like to have his hands tied. We do not know that he was wise in this. True, he argued that the House of Commons had the votes for the Army Estimates always in their hands, and could always refuse their votes for new fortifi cations—but we all know how difficult it is for any independent member to oppose any special vote of the kind with success. The Government has always a prepared and plausible case ; the member has not ready the special information to oppose it ; the scheme for making some barren rock unavailable is adopted on the Government assurance of its neces sity ; and, the work once ordered, the cost of surveys and plans, and preparation being once incurred, on they go, year after year. The vote for the current year is only a continuation of what had been done in previous years, and thus at length it is found that tens of thousands have swelled to hundreds of thousands, and these it may be to millions—till at last the question arises,—whether when all is done, we should in time of war be able to spare a little army to garrison works which ought never to have beet. begun. Then arises the still graver question, had not works better be blown up again P Will they not offer positions for the enemy to wrest from feeble garrisons, and positions from which they can turn our own guns against us. Our readers who trouble themselves with the debates on these votes, well know that this is no exaggerated account of the frequent story of a colonial fortification. We cannot conceive that our colonists anywhere will misconstrue the remarks mde in this debate, notwithstanding the touchiness of Mr. HALIBURTON. Canada has already shown a spirit worthy of on associated kingdom, not of a petty colony. She will readily acknowledge that the tendency of in terference, for interference it is now, by the Home Govetnment, in constructing and manning her for tifications, is emasculating to the colony, and tends to give a colour of military subjection to the mother country, rather than of civil and political union with her. If Canada, the principal colony referred to, for instance, has her own fortifications, defended by her own garrisons, it becomes evident that the whole con nection with us is perfectly spontaneous. If foreign war broke out, and she needed and asked our aid, it would be as an independent appanage of the British Crown, 'without the shadow of con straint. A kingdom of the extent and population of Canada would willingly incur the cost of this more dignified relation, and would repudiate, if appealed to, the system of petting and nursing at the cost of the old country. The attention, however, both of this country and of the colonies will be in future awakened to the whole subject. Our administrators will not be allowed to pursue unnoticed their old policy. New Zealand and the Cape will be required to pay for the wars, more properly quarrels, which they provoke with the natives. Our Australian colo nies will not be snubbed again when they offer to purchase at a fair price some of our old frigates as floating harbour defences, and the military spirit in the colonies will, we hope, be called forth rather than chilled and repressed. As we no longer tax our colonies—as they, we might rather say, tax us, by Customs duties, frequently high, and in the lay ing on of which we neither ask nor receive any favour, it is but fair that they should meet their own regular military expenses out of the funds to which we thus indirectly contribute. Our navy must for a long time t) come be indeed the chief maritime reliance of our colonies; but for works on their own soil, and for ordinary defences, they must now rely on themselves. " Dowb," or as that of " Nil Darpan" there is this latest nut-to-crack, coming to us but just now all the way from China under the name, style, and title of " Tung-che." It was only within the last fortnight, by the bye, that one of the more skilled disciples of our modern NOSTRA DAMUS, as a foot-note, or rather as a tail-note to a timely pamphlet, noticed by us in these columns of The Sun, but yesterday, expounded for the en lightenment of the multitude that mystic psue donym, or [nom -de-plume that for about a quarter of a century has been " familiar in our mouths as household words "—namely, ZAD KIEL ToA TZE!:The:Solicitor of the Astro-Meteoro logical Society now acquainting the 50,000 annual readers of the prophetic -4lnzanack. that Zadkiel signifies the Angel, or Genius of the planet Jupiter, and Tao-tze, Doctor of Reason. Fresh from which momentous e h n r t e owu shrewdness n e ss of explanation , ou we have now to try anew wits over the Chinese dissyl lable—Tung-che. Looking at it—as at any unrecog nised handwriting upon an unopened letter just received—sideways, upside-down, or at any angle that may be selected—" Tung-che"is about as agree able and comprehensible reading, as what shall we say ? As one of those advertisements in cypher at the head of the second column of our chief morning contemporary—a cypher, we will suppose (if there really has been one of them yet), that has baffled the skill of Professor WHEATSTONE in his attempts to unravel it. Yet TUN G- CHE after all admits of an explanation quite as easy and as readily appreciable as NIL DARPAN, or as any other outlandish designation. Tung the we now learn in effect, is but the title bestowed by the Regency of Prince KUNG at Pekin upon the present reign of boy-King of the Chinese. TUNG CELE! It is worth re membering—for it sig nifies (of course, in .a very condensed form under those two wonderful little syllables) " Union in the cause of Law and Order ! That, remember, in contradistinction to the Taepings ! "Union in the cause of Law and Order" over 400,000,000 of our Asiatic fellow-creatures under the influence of the first Prince of any apparent enlight.m ment, real enlightenment, , that has for centu ries swayed even vicariously the destinies of that vast and populous Empire. " Union in the Cause of Law and Order" simultaneously with the inauguration of a regular system of mercantile intercourse with the European races, and of diplomatic intercourse with the European Govern ments. Notwithstanding that the present Empe ror of the CHINESE begins his reign now during his nonage through the medium of his Uncle as Regent —notwithstanding that he begins his reign now in the twelfth year of the Taeping Revolution—the the Celestial EMPEROR must, in truth, in very many respects be regarded as one who has ascended the throne of that stupendous empire under the happiest auspices. Hence, from the recognition of this simple fact, Prince KUNG, the Regent of China, has dubbed the new-born reign of his nephew— TUNG-CHE, or " Union in the Cause of Law and Order." The Imperial Government of China having for the first time established, with apparent sincerity, amicable relations with the two nations at the head of modern civilisation, that is with France and with England. And this, at the self-same time that the terrible bands of the Taeping Insurgents are giving the world, quite undesignedly on their part, distinct indications of their having really made no head way whatever towards the permanent conquest of anything—even of themselves! After twelve years marauding pitilessly with fire and sword— razing cities to the ground and exterminating the inhabitants—houses are rebuilt among the ruins so soon as the Taepings have passed onwards, a new population gradually collects together upon the desolated sites of the towns so recently destroyed— the Taeping system, wherever its votaries have gene, we behold, in fact, has taken no root what ever among the Chinese ! China—inland, no less than along the seaboard—reverts, so soon as the storm of revolution has passed by, reverts by a sort of instinct, or gravitation, or necessity, to the old regime under its new and brighter aspect—in a word, to ung-ehe, or, in plain English, to " Union in the causes of Law and Order." It is a curious circumstance that two martinets on opposite sides of the Atlantic now hold in their hands, in a crisis of high importance to each, the affairs of two'nations. The King of PRUSSIA is a military martinet on the throne, Mr. LINCOLN a legal martinet on the Presidential chair. Each of these chief magistrates is at the present time pur suing i❑ all probability a most unwise course, from sheer wont of capacity to look facts in the face, and to get a glance beyond the circle in which they have been trained to act. Probably no finer oppor tunity could well be offered to a ruler than that which Mr. LINCOLN possessed, of cancelling in virtue of the rebellion all the obligations of the Federal Government to respect slavery. For slavery's sake the Southern States made war on the Supreme authority, and assuredly the Go- TUNG-CRE! Does anyone recognise it ? Is it still with the majority another abracadabra, " that word of dread ? " A symbol of a mystery but dimly perceived, even by the initiated, wholly inscrutable to the uninitiated. It was but the other day that English readers were puzzlin g,for the first time, over that enigmatic name,NlL DARPAN,WhiCh the earliest telegrams about it informed western Europe repre sented a something then driving distracted her Britannic MAJESTY'S Hindoo lieges as by the bite of some little Oriental Tarantula. It:turned out soon afterwards, as the public will very well remember, that "Nil Darpan" meant nothing more, and nothing less, after all, than a long-winded Ben galese drama upon Indigo -planting, and what not —a drama in an unlimited number of acts and scenes, with scarcely any diversity at all among them, constructed upon the expansive fashion origi nally introduced by M. ALEXANDRE DUMAS, pere— minus, of course (mats vela va sans dire), the in imitable vivacity and espieglerie of the Gallic ALEXANDER the GREAT of literature, Scarcely have we recovered from the shock given to our Etymological sensibilities, and, generally speaking, to what might be whimsically called, for want of some apter phrase, our nervous system as philolo• gists, by the inexplicable riddle of ".Nil Darpan," when quite as unpreparedly as in that instant, by a sudden sash of electricity from beyond the seas, the isle has been again frighted from its propriety by another Sphinx-like utterance clicked to us audibly and visibly by the electric needles—spell ing out that last little wondrous Chinese puzzle, to wit—" Tung-che." It is a sort of Asiatic reminder of that famous Crimean riddle that provoked, once upon a time (not a hundred years ago), such " in extinguishable laughter" both within and without the walls of Parliament—that Shibboleth, ever since, of Nepotism, " Take care of Dowb !" Poor Major DOWBIGGIN ! Perhaps, however (unless his promo tion, by the way, unluckily got nipped in the bud, under the influence of that universal outburst of good - humoured derision), perhaps by this time Colonel or Major-General, or we know not what else, including C.B. and all the rest of it—barring the Victoria Cross! Poor, harmless, inoffensive Major DOWEIGGIN ! Under that most ridiculous abbreviation of his (at the best) rather eccentric patronymic—his merits—possibly in themselves large enough, we know at any rate nothing whatever to the contrary ! Under the laugh ter_moving snfluence, we say, of that nonsensical "Take care of Down" his stunted or foreshortened surname became for a while (in fact until very simply explained by the ludicrous addendum of —IGGIN !) became for a time, we say, as utterly bewildering in its way as that amazing boast of Mrs. SPARSIT in " Hard Times"—that—" she was a POWLER !" Leaving everybody who listened to her in a tantalising uncertainty as to whether a Yowler signified a- country, perhaps, or a creed, or a profession ! And now—for all the world, at any rate in Western Europe —as problematic as Powler," or as that of that phrase of a vernment was entitled to say—as we have by no act, broken our engagements, as you have, by the worst of all acts, broken yours —the engagement to respect the slavery which you ' causelessly make a cause of war, is at an end for ever. Such a course, taken early in the war, would have gained the negroes, would have put their masters in fear of them, and would, in all pro bability, have brought about an early termination of the contest. But no, Mr. LINCOLN was, by the " Grace of GoD," or by oath, the President of a pro-slavery constitution, and he having learned in the school of the law, would keep within the law on this point ; he wou!d uphold slavery whatever became of the Liberty of the Press and of the writs of Habeas Corpus. He would keep to the legal and technical of the Constitution. The King of PRUSSIA seems to have a mind of much the same calibre, only, instead of having been trained tolegalsubtleties,it has been drilled to military obedience and command. Mr. LINCOLN'S discipline disposes him to let rebels enjoy every advantage of every technical doubt. The King of PRUSSIA'S habits as a soldier and an officer indispose him to put up with the undoubted right of a consti tutional assembly to differ from him. His pro clamation has been already issued, by which he puts his disobedient Chambers, as it were, before a court-martial of electors. The majority of Re presentatives have not obeyed royal orders, and he sends them, therefore, before those whom he expects to enforce his commands. In a decree ad dressed to his newly-appointed retrograde Mini stry, in a perfect mist of words, he yet contrives to make it plain that he wants—a very different House to what was sent him before. It is a paper, indeed, difficult for an Englishman to interpret, even when he has a fair translation of it in his hands. We can just discover what may be ex pressed in plain language in two or three sentences —that he is pledged to a Constitutional Monarchy, but that, as he views it, the danger a-head is of too rapid progress. He does not deny that he is bound to maintain the Constitution ; " but also in the the Crown, and to m a i n t a i n it i n that un diminished same measure," he says," to maintain the rights of strength which is necessary to Prussia for the execution of her mission. The weakening of the Crown would be greatly injurious to the Father land. This conviction also lives in the hearts of THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 22, 1862. my subjects. It is only necessary for me to explain clearly and openly to them my real thoughts for their welfare." The decree is made to seem as liberal as possible, yet to point out that the KING wants the country to check its representatives in their too rapid pro gress. Nowhere does it mention the offence against Royal wishes of which the members have been guilty. Perhaps this is left to the Ministers to do in some future documents ; perhaps it is considered to be sufficiently understood. But more probably the difficulty was found to be too great. Stated in plain terms it amounted to this, that the represen tatives, when asked by the KING to vote the money of the electors, wished the electors to know how the money was to go. In this:country we cannot com prehend the objections to such a demand ; an honest administrator could not need to fear giving in his estimates ; he would be willing to show why he needed what he asked. Yet this is the only point on which the King is offended with his too liberal Chamber, and on which he claims a verdict from the country ! Will the country give- him a verdict ? We all hope not. Sad indeed for the Prussians if they have not courage to make a stand now for the first and most practically important of constitu tional rights. The power of the purse has been that by which in truth all our British liberties have been gained and held. And if Prussians would secure for themselves anything like them, they must now show that, having been moderate, they know also how to be firm. They will now, as a people, either greatly sink or rise in the eyes of Europe. It is a pity that their rise would be also the humi liation of their KING. That, however, is his fault. Never had a Prussian King such a chance of becom ing the first of German Sovereigns—he has thrown it away, and on him, not on his subjects, should rest the consequences. CHARLES DICKENS'S READINGS, For his new " readings," which take place in the large room of St. James's-hall, Mr. Charles Dickens has made a selection of the most striking portions of his " David Copperfield" and digested them into six chapters. Four of these are devoted to the episude of Peggotty and " Little Emly ;" the other two, which are of a lighter character, record the dinner given to the Micawbers at Copperfield's lodgings and the more comical peculiarities of Dora's housekeeping. The general excellence of Mr. Dickens's " read ings" has been acknowledged for several years, and his appearance on the platform as a practical com mentator on his own works is an event that is ex pected every season. We use the term "practical commentator' because, although he does not utter a syllable of note or comment in the ordinary sense of the words, he gives to the incidents, and more especially to tt e characters described in his books, a significance which mere readers giftea with only an average power of imagination could never dis cover. He does not quite act the personages of his creation, but his approach to acting is close enough to make their manners and peculiarities plain to the most careless of the audience. Of his present read ings the simple, true-hearted fisherman Peggotty is the hero, and it is impossible to praise too highly the accuracy with which, unaided by scenery or cos tume, he brings before the mind's eye the blunt honest nature of the man, with his south-eastern dialect, his homely phraseology, and the stubborn resolution to do his duty which is written in every line of his countenance. The vague pomp of Mr. Micawber and the insinuating blandness of his wife are admirably comic. But the effect of these semi• dramatic delineations is perhaps even sur passed by that of the descriptive eloquence with which Mr. Dickens narrates the circumstances of the storm of which Steerforth and Ham are the victims. The events seem visibly to occur before him, and to inspire him with a feeling of awe in which his auditors are compelled to participate. And it is to be observed that he passes through an ordeal remarkably severe. When he first came before the public as a " reader," he had only to satisfy the curiosity of a multitude anxioas to see an author so celebrated, and to hear the words to which he owed his celebrity issue from his lips. But he has been too long before the public for that curiosity to be very active now. It is also perfectly evident , from the hum of recognition that goes round the room whenever a popular character is mentioned, that the audience are almost as familiar as the author with the contents of the selected book. To his dramatic power, to his irresistible eloquence, guided by the light that belongs to him in his ca pacity of author, does he now owe that popularity as a " reader" which seems rather to increase than to diminish. THE QUEEN AND THE ITALIAN BOY.--A few days ago her Majesty, accompanied by her Ro) al Highness the Princess Alice, and attended by Colonel the Hon. A. N Hood, was taking a carriage drive in the neighbourhood of Old Windsor und Egham, and on passing over Runny mede her Majesty's attention was attracted by the stock in-trade of a poor Italian vendor of images, the carriage was ordered to be stopped, and, with her characteristic con sideration and kindness of heart, her Majesty became a purchaser of several of the images. But here a laughable incident occurred. When the Queen ordered the Italian to be liberally rewarded, it was discovered that none of the party had sufficient cash to furnish the handslme sum required. The money, however, was soon afterwards procured, and when the poor Italian understood who his customer was he became quite overwhelmed with emotion. SACRED ORATIONS BY MR. MA SON JONES.- Mr. Mason Jones, the orator, who'e lectures on Milton, Swift, Curran, Garibaldi, and other celebrities, caused such a sensation in London the last two seasons, is about to deliver a series of sacred orations on " St. Paul," "Elijah,' Job," and " Moses," in Her Majesty's Concert Room, Hanover-square, on Sunday afternoons, giving the public free admission. THE EARLDOM OF DUNDONALD.—It is averred that there is to be a contest for the succession to the earl dom of Dundonald, the competitors being two parties. It had been whispered, long previously to the death of the late earl, that his eldest son would have difficulty in making out his claim to the succession. It was understood that, with such irregularity had the noble lord's marriage been origi nally attended, legal proof of it would be almost impossible. After the birth of two or more children, the earl consulted a learned ex-Chancellor supposed to be an or acle on Scotch law, who was so little satisfied with the proofs then to be adduced, that, the countess being enciente, he recommended a second marriage. His advice was taken. The eldest son, at the very end of last session, preferred his claim to be a Scotch peer, and to be entitled to vote for the representative Scotch peers. His claim will come on for hearing again shortly, and, it is said, will be opposed by his brother, the eldest son by the second marriage. Ho also is said to have laid his case before a noble ex-Chancellor (Lord St. Leonards), and who has pronounced that it cannot be gainsayed.—Ayr Observer. DEATH OF MR. SAMUEL - MARCH PHILLIPS.— We announced yesterday the death of the Right Hon. Samuel March Philippe, formerly Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, which took place recently at Great Malvern, at the advanced age of 82, The deceased was second son of Mr. Thomas March Phillipps, and was born at Uttoseter in 1780. He received his education at the Charter-house and graduated at Sidney College, Cam bridge, where in 1802 he obtained the honours of eighth Wrangler and Senior Chancellor's Medalist. Four years afterwards he was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple. Having entered Parliament, he was appointed in 1827 Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, but resigned in 1848, when he was made a Privy Councillor. The deceased was married in 1812 to the second daughter of the late Mr. Charles Grant, M.P. for Invernesshire, who, however, died in 1826. He was the author of several works, among which may be mentioned one on the " Law of Evidence," and a "Review of Select State Trials." CONDEMNED MIIRDERERS.—The Home Secretary having had under his consideration the circumstances of the case of Ishmael Jones, who was convicted at the recent assizes at Welshpool, North Wales, of the wilful murder of his wife, the verdict, it may probably be remembered, being accompanied by a recommendation to mercy, has thought fit to advise the extension of the mercy of the Crown, and the capital sentence will therefore be commuted to penal servitude for life. A intification to that effect has been forwarded to the governor of the county gaol at Mont gomery. The sentence of death passed upon Hall for the murder of a gamekeeper near Oxford, and upon the sailor boy, Patrick Devereux, for the murder of the crimp in Rateliff-highway, and in which cases the Home Secretary respited the execution, will be commuted to penal servitude for life. With regard to Clark, the murderer of Mr. Prater, the tax collector of Newcastle, the special circumstances of his alleged insanity, as ascertained by the Government me dical inspector, leave it at present under further considera tio an to what couxoe will be adopted in his especial case, MR.

COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR CASTLE, MARCH 21. The Queen held a Privy Counc 1 this afternoon, at 4 o'clock, at which were present Earl Granville, the Duke of Somerset, and the Right Hon. E. Cardwell. Mr. Helps, Clerk of the Council, attended. Earl Granville had an audience of the Queen. The Prince Consort Memorial Committee held a meeting yesterday afternoon at the Palace of Westminster. Present: The Earl of Derby, the Earl of Clarendon, the Lori Mayor, and Sir Charles L. Eastlake. A deputation on the subject of the Bleaching and Dye ing Works Act of 1860, had an interview with Sir George Grey yesterday, at the Home-office. A deputation frcm members of the Atlantic Telegraph Company had an interview with Viscount Palmerston yesterday. A deputation on Sugar Duties had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday, at his official residence in Downing-street. A deputation iespecting Prosecution Expenses Bill had an interview with the Right Hon. Sir George Grey yes terday. Despatches were received yesterday at the Colonial-office from the Governor of Canada. ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY.—Yesterday, a numerously attended deputation waited upon Lord Pal merston, at his lordship's residence in Piccadilly, on the part of the old Atlantic Telegraph Company, to solicit the assistance of the Government to have fresh soundings made between Ireland and Newfoundland, and to submit the propositions of the United States Government of their readiness to co operate in every possible way with the British Government in the shape of granting a subsidy or guarantee upon the amount of capital required for a new cable. Samples of various cables were submitted to his lordship, who requested that the proposals of the company should be sent in for the consideration of the Go vernment. THE ROYAL ATLANTIC COMPANY AND THE Go. VERNMENT.—Yesterday a copy of a letter addressed by the directors of the Royal Atlantic Company to the First Lord of the Treasury, dated the 7th of last month, was printed for the information of Parliament. The chairman informs the Government as to the present state of the company's steamers, the capital, &c., and expresses the entire confi dence of the directors in the ability of the company "to carry out fully and faithfully all the obligations of the con tract in a manner creditable to themselves and satisfactorily to her Majesty's Government." It is added that the direc tors will, at the earliest possible moment, submit a report of the completion of the vessels, and ask at the hands of her Majesty's Government a renewal of the contract and a re storation of the subsidy. REPORTED Loss OF A PLYMOUTH SCHOONER WITH ALL HANDS.—A report has reached us to the effect that the schooner Contest, the property of Mr. King, grocer, Quay, Plymouth, has gone down with all hands. A vessel which was passing up the Channel sent the news ashore by one of the pilot-boats belonging to this port. The crew of this vessel stated that the Contest was lost at St. Michael's, in a tremendous gale of wind, and that all hands perished. She was 124 tons burden. The captain's name is Batiste, and the crew were eight in number. She left Plymouth on the 19th of January, and arrived at St. Michael's on the 2d of March. Mr. King, although he is afraid that the report may prove correct, hopes it will be found incorrect. It is also right to say that there was another vessel named the Contest at St. Michael's at the same date, which pos- sibly might have been mistaken for his vessel.— Western Morning News. PRUSSIA.—A letter from Berlin, dated the 18t inst., says :—" The Ministerial crisis is over. The previ sions of the public are unhappily confirmed, and the new Ministry presents a strong reactionary character. The King paid a visit to-day to M. d'Auerswald, and' was nearly an hour with him. It is thought that the King wished to induce this statesman to remain in the Cabinet, but it is scarcely possible that he will succeed ; for, besides the poli tical incompatibility between the new Ministers and M. d'Auerswald, the health of the latter is too much compro mised to allow him to undertake the duties of a Ministry. To-day is the anniversary of the revolution of 1848, and on this occasion a large number of people of the better class assembled at the tomb containing the remains of the victims of March. The tomb was decked with flowers and garlands. The attitude of the people was calm and dig nified, and the police abstained from appearing on this occasion. The Ministry have decided, it is said, upon send ing a circular to all the Government authorities, enjoining them to observe the most strict neutrality at all the elec tions. The question will be to see whether it will be acted up to." MANCHESTER UNITY OF ODD FELLOWS.—The Lord Melbourne Lodge (North London district) had a special meeting on Thursday, at the Rose and Crown, Welwyn, P. Prov. G. M. Harris in the chair. An excel- lent repast was provided by Mr. Brand, the treasurer, and after the usual loyal and other toasts, the Chairman pro posed "Prosperity to the Lord Melbourne Lodge," and in a speech of some length, referred to the fact that it was the anniversary of the day last year when the then trus tees of the lodge (who were all now expelled from the order), had, without any authority, sold out the society's stock, and afterwarls withheld it. He congratulated the lodge that it was rid of such members, that the County Court proceedings the lodge had been compelled to take had been the means of securing justice, and that Mr. Tidd Pratt ha 1 given his authority under the Friendly Societies' Act by which the whole of the funds of the society had been restored. He trusted that a bright future was before them, and believed the lodge would have a long career of usefulness as an important branch of the order. Mr. T. Catlin, the secretary, responded, and said the lodge had new about £1,005 surplus money, and 60 members; the rules had been revised and newly certified; they had adopted a graduated table for new members; and young men would find they could join a safe lodge on easy terms, whilst the valuation of assets and liabilities would satisfy every one. He thought that now their troubles were at an end, and they were determined to work harmoniously to. gether, they must be successful. The health of the new trustees, Messrs. Bonbon, Blow, and Sibley, was then honoured, and acknowledged by them. Various other speakers followed, and capital music enlivened the enter ment, which was altogether of a very happy character. AWKWARD MISTAKE.—The l itago (New Zea land) Witness reports : " A most ludicrous affair has oc curred at Waitahuna with the new Bank of New Zealand. The manager or inspector, determined not to remain idle whilst his premises were being completed in Dunedin, went to the diggings and purchased £lO,OOO worth of gold, after which he took his departure, probably very satisfied with his labours. :Unfortunately the notes of his own bank, which he issued in payment, were dated in advance, the Ist of December, and as this day fell on Sunday, they were in a legal aspect worthless, except in a court of equity. The other banks, with extreme narrow-mindedness, taking ad vantage of the error, refused to ac, ept them, and then such a. row ensued as has seldom occurred before. The Miners thought they had been duped, and one storekeeper who had issued a great number of the notes in purchase of gold, was arrested for obtaining gold on false pretences. He was chained to a bed-post, and in the morning marched to Tuapeka, with other prisoners. Of course the case was dismissed. Other storekeepers had to find cash to take up the notes they had purchased gold with, and the store keeper with whom the manager stayed was threatened with having his premises pulled down. It is difficult to say which was the more culpable, the stupidness of the mis • take, or the illiberality of the other banks in taking advan tage of it." A HERRING-HOUSE AT FILEY.—The building includes a large shed open to the rafters, which contains casks, boxes, washing-tubs, spits (long sharp-pointed pieces of hazel-wood), and piles of herrings, and used for washing and spitting the fish. Opening upon this shed is a long narrow room fitted with two tables; on one of these the fish are packed, on the other the packing-boxes have their covers nailed on. At the far end are piles of spitted her ring which the assistant hands to the packer, who strips the herrings off the spit by twenties at a time, upon the table, and then rapidly places them by fifties in boxes, which a boy quickly covers. On the side next the only window is a wall ladder leading into an upper room, ' where boys, who receive from ss. to 78. a week, are em ployed in making little packing-cases, the boards for which are supplied ready-made from Sheffield. • Upon the opposite side are two doors, each of which leads into a room open to the roof, higher than the shed, and capable of containing 12,000 herrings. Upon the floor seve ral fires of oak and ash wood are burning and throwing up clouds of smoke ; rude racks of wood line the walls on either side, and across these are laid the spits with the herrings strung upon them. The fish are usually salted fcr a fortnight, and smoked for various periods, varying from two hours to an entire night, to convert them into bloaters ; and from a day and a half to weeks, to make them red, or as they are locally called, " soldier" herrings. Four girls, who com monly begin their work at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, can spit at least 10,000 herrings in 2 hours upon their spits Of hazel wood ,at payment of ss. amon g them; and as eachspit is covered with 20 fish, it is piled upon a rack. The scene is one of great animation at this hour: one man shovels the fish off the floor of the shed into baskets with open wicker sides, with a broad flat spade ; while another transfers them into a larger swill or basket, which he immerses in a huge tub of cold water, and stirs with both hands to free the scales from salt. When perfectly clean, the fish are thrown into a long flat tub which is dry, and then quickly spitted by the nimble fingers of the girls, .vho relieve the monotony of their task by a vivacious and almost unbroken conversation, often in terrupted by peals of hearty laughter.—Once a Week. The Minister of Foreign Affairs has received a letter from Abd-el-Kader, in which the ex-Emir announces that he is sending to the Emperor Napoleon two horses from Y emen , of the purest breed which exists in Arabia, and which, according , to the writer of the letter, are descended i n a direct line from the famous mare of the Prophet. The precious stallions are shortly expected in France, and it is said to be the Emperor's intention to place them in his breeding stud in the South, where the Arab blood succeeds admirably in regenerating the French race of horses. LATEST NEWS. GARIBALDI AT MILAN. MILAN, MARCH 22. Garibaldi arrived here last night at 11 o'clock. He wes received with indescribable enthusiasm. The whole city was illuminated. The people shouted "Rome and Venice !" Garibaldi addressed them from the balcony of the Hotel de Ville. He said, " I salute the people who fought so gloriously against tyranny for five days." Garibaldi promised also that Rome and Venice should be delivered, and recommended the people to practise themselves in arms as a necessary preparation for the deliverance of the remainder of Italy and of their sisters still in elavery.

The King of Prussia, on the occasion of a fete recently given in commemoration of the 49th an ni• versary of the creation of the Prussian Landwe addressed on the 17th.the following autograph letter to Field Marshal Baron de Wrangel, who preside at it : " The men of the oldest and the youngest classes of the Landwehr of Berlin celebrate to-day the 49th anniversary of the creation of the Prussian Landwehr, and as I understand that you, Field Marshal, are to be present at the fete, I charge yo to express to the assembly all the interest I take in the solemnity. May the sublime example which young and old gave when it was necessary to take up arms, be always followed when required among the sons of Prussia, who are assured of the gratitude of the King and of the country. " WILLIAM." ITALY. In the sitting of the 18th of the Ch am ber of De do puties at Turin, M. Mandoj Albanese p ut a qu e i " the to the Ministers of Public Instruction an es Interior regarding certain occurrences at Nap " He stated that on the 14th, the King's b i r thday, twenty-eight young ladies, receiving their educa tion in a convent at Naples, refused to s in g the Deem on the occasion, notwithstanding the efforts of the directress of the establishment to indu ce them to do so ; and that they instead shut themselve s u P in a room and sang aloud a Te Deem for the late Bourbon;' a strange outburst of Legitimist feeling , since it was tantamount to thanking God for his dethronement, (Loud laughter.) Again, on the 15th, in the church of San Marcellino, a preacher burst forth into accusations and excommunicatio ns against the Government; whereupon several young' students began to address him, and there ensued a violent dispute between the audience and the preacher. Several bigoted old women proceeded to take summary vengeance upon the students, who, at this unforeseen attack, were too g of re to use any other means of defence than that treat. They were, however, followed int o the streets by a rabble armed with revolvers and sti lettoes, and ultimately a fray ensued, in which many of the aggressors were disarmed, but not without some wounds being inflicted on some of the students. The hon. deputy concluded with asking whether the Government bad taken measures for a better organisation of the police at Naples. "M. MANCINI, Minister of Public Instruction , replied that, as regarded the young ladies, they were the daughters of families well known. for their strong attaament to the old dynasty, and i t was therefore no wonder that they should not be favourable to the Italian cause. The directress was a patriotic Tuscan, and had been sent thither by the former Minister ; but other mea sures would be necessary. As for the fray alluded to, the preacher had been arrested, as w ell as the other instigators and ringleaders, and would be rigorously tried by the ordinary tribunals.' After a few remarks from some other deputies, Chamber commenced the discussion on the Salt and Tobacco Monopoly Bill, the first twelve articles Of which were adopted, " The late vote, consolidating the Ratazzi Mi nistry," says a Turin letter, " has been received . with favour by the public. It was perhaps the first time that the. Right, the Left, and the Ex treme Left had voted together. M. La Farina a nd M. Crispi found themselves by exception in accord. M. Petruccelli was the only member of the Extreme Left who abstained from voting." THE HOUNDS AND THE LOCOMOTIVE.—On Mon day last the pack ,of hounds belonging to Lord Galway, which hunts the greater portion of North Nottinghamshire , very narrowly escaped destruction. The meet was at Jockeyhouse, in the neighbourhood of Selby Hall, where a fox was found. When near East Markham the hounds were crossing the Great Northern Railway just as the Par liamentary train came up from London. The train Wa s rounding a curve when the hounds were seen a little ahead' The driver slackened his speed, and the breaks were sr plied, but not soon enough to prevent an accident. Two valuable hounds were destroyed on the spot, and another died shortly after by being precipitated down the embank ment. Three or four ethers were setiously injured. N o blame is attached to the engine driver. Had it been the express train, which passed a few minutes earlier, the greater part of the pack would have been destroyed. SALE OF HORSES IN FRANCE.—The sale of the horses comimg from the Imperial breeding establishment of Versailles have lately attracted a considerable number of amateurs to the French Tattersall's, where carriage.b.ors es brought from B,ooof. to 9,000 f. the pair. The.Patrie adduces the circumstance as a strong proof that France can suffice of herself for the necessary supply of riding and carriage° horses, which are now brought from England at a gr eat cost. It recommends that two fairs for the sale of superior horses be established each year in Paris, spring and autumn, and that the place selected for holding th em b e either the Champs de Mar; or the Palais de l'lndustrie. Lastly, it suggests that if other sales be decided on at Tattersall's similar to that which lately took place, seats shall be arranged in amphitheatre for spectators, and the BUMS Paid for entrance be given to the poor, 721 It a ar e Per tin( X 1 Ist( gli Paz n E ape Ne v Ne-v B a t cot, 17,d; tra, Di Elt :' Gr tirt,, tip x 44e w . itusk bil Mardi 'Xi Sp at Ale, C.,, 4Tna Di Rots, Ant% fro tati blo, k ha s a The
