It will be remembered by many as in every sense of the word the crowning incident of the magni ficent ceremonial of the Coronation of the present Emperor of all the Russias—the Czar ALEXANDER ll.—that of his crossing the threshold of the great Cathedral at Moscow arrayed in his sumptuous robes as imperator, wearing upon his head the diadem of an autocrat—all the bells of the ancient capital clanging, trumpets sounding, drums roll ing, cannon firing, while the multitude of people gathered together there from all the ends of the earth greeted the young Sovereign, then but newly anointed, with one harmonious roar of ac clamations. There were various descriptions of this spec tacle written at the time with a most vivid and picturesque eloquence by those able representatives of our own Press, who had been de spatched thither, for that express purpose, by the chief London newspapers as their Special Cozre spondents. Brilliantly as each of these travelled journalists acquitted themselves, it will hardly bethought in any way invidious if amongst them all one writer is here particularised as in all respects facile prineeps : . meaning, it need hardly be added, him whom wo were the first to designate in these columns of The Sun (towards the close of the Crimean War) " CAPTAIN PEN," that is to say, of course, Dr. RUSSELL, the Times Correspondent! Admirably well as Dr. RUSSELL acquitted himself of his responsibilities in that peculiarly responsible capacity in times of war (in the Crimean ' War, for example, during the war with Russia, in India during the suppression of the revolt of the Sepoys, and later yet, upon the other side of the Atlantic during the earlier part of this fratricidal contest between the Federals and the Confederates, until, iu fact, the pencil with which he wrote seemed, in the estima tion of the Northerns, from having been as lumi nous as a crayon of phosphorus to have turned into nothing less burning than a stick of lunar caustic) as Special Correspondent of the 7imes at Moscow, upon the occasion of the Russian EMPEROR'S Coro • nation, Captain PEN may fairly be said to have written at his best. His description of the " crown • ing" scene, as we have called it, the spectacle already referred to as having marked the very close cf the Coronation ceremony, was as startling and impres sive of its kind as any description he ever put to paper. It brought to view as vividly almost as if actually seen by the reader—the stately form of the young Emperor ALEXANDER, standing there con spicuously upon the summit of a lofty flight of steps, the jewels upon his diadem blazing in the sunlight, his breast heaving, his nostrils delated, his cheeks flushed with pride and exultation ! Alto gether the aspect of the young CZAR at that mo ment seemed to augur a reign of arrogance and of domination suitable, as it might have appeared, to the heir to the crown of the Emperor NICHOLAS I. It has happily proved quite otherwise. The reign of ALEXANDER 11, will constitute a noble contrast in many ways to that of his haughty and truly autocratic father and predecessor. It will be ever remembered as the reign in which Serfdom was abolished. As dating an enterprise—that wholesale emancipation of the serfs—as any that a Czar could ever have dreamt of attempting. It has been attempted by the reigning Autocrat, and not only attempted but accomplished. If but the policy carried out during his reign in regard to the Rus sian Empire itself in its integrity, and in regard also to its relations with the rest of the world, could be applied in a spirit as generous and enlightened to the Polish Provinces of that Empire in particular —the name of A LEXANDER 11. , th e f a i r f ame o f ALEX ER 11., would be consecrated to the veneration of posterity. That, in truth, i s th e one d amn ing blot upon his es cutcheon. If he be well advised, that blot may y our re gard a turning yet be b et i mes erased. Apart from it— the ) from Warsaw, in search of som e ev i dence of h M enobler and w i ser i nterna l policy of th e re i gnin r in the opp os i te —let us say towardtig E MPEROR of all the R us -i as di r ection, in search o f some e w q o li y cogent evid ence 1 of the nobler and wiser extern a l policy of the e CZAR, let us say towards Paris —there are trgnwlothind g i ca tions, at this moment, brought pointedly before us of the sagacity which, under the reigning ALEXANDER 11. has guided the councils of the Rus- sian Government. Yonder, at Moscow , the opportunity alluded to is afforded to us by the occasion of the interview between the AUTOCRAT and the nobles of his Empire. Nearer to us, in the other instances alluded to, it is brought to view by the interview between the Emperor of the FRENCH and the newly appointed Russian ambassador to his Court—their ceremonious interview in the Palace of the Tuileries. Such has been the enlightened character of the external policy of Russia during the reign of the Emperor ALEXANDER 11. that the Emperor (NAPOLEON 111. could, but just now, re mark with troth :—" I congratulate myself upon the friendly relations existing for six years between the EMPEROR and my Government, and which have the more chance of continuing, as they are due to the mutual sympathies and real in terests of the two Empires. I have been enabled to appreciate the straightforwardness of heart of your SOVEREIGN, and have conoeived for him a sincere friendship." On the other hand such meanwhile has been the wisdom of the firm, but at the same time the eminently conciliatory internal policy of the Czar ALEXAN DER 11. that he himself could thus address his nobles but the other day at Moscow, could thus address them even within such very recent remem brance of his bold and almost audacious measure of the Emancipation of the Serfs. "It is particularly agreeable to me," quoth the CsAn to his patricians, " to see you assembled in our ancient capi tal, which is doubly dear to me as it was my cradle. lam satisfied to be able to repeat to you what I said to the nobles of Novogorod on the day of the celebration of the thou sandth anniversary of the Russian Empire." The EMPE ROR then adding, " I am accustomed to place my confi dence in the sentiments of devotion of our nobility—an unshaken devotion to the Throne and to the country, of which it has so often given proof by its acts, especially at periods of sad trials for our country, as was only recently the case." And, finally, "I am sure, gentlemen," said his MAJESTY, " that our nobility will continue to be the most firm support of the throne, as it always has been and ought to be. This is why I put my trust in you, gentlemen, in your unanimity in aiding me in every thing which tends to the welfare and power of our country. May God aid us in this task, and may His blessing be with us I And you, gentlemen, members of the nobility of Moscow, know that I hold it a special honour to be one of you as proprietor of this province. I thank you for your cordial welcome, which I know how to appreciate." If only the Emperor ALEXANDER 11. would turn a glance of beneficence and 'generosity and wisdom--kindred to those directed towards Rus sian Serfdom and European Diplomacy—upon his unhappy Polish Subjects, a new era would indeed be recognised as having been:opened by the Reign ing EMPEROR of all the Russias—a new epoch of ad vance and expansion in the general development of Muscovite Civilisation. Lord PALMERSTON, if he means to fight through another session, will do well to attend to the moral of the Southampton election. The political moral we take to be, that Lord PALMERSTON'S home politics are not worth fighting for. The battle was, it is true, a battle between a railway company and a mail company ; we quite admit that ; but whose fault was it that what should have been a. political con test, degenerated into a squabble between two great trading companies; and a mere battle for supre macy between them, since neither candidate was advocating any particular scheme advantageous to the town ? We reply Lord PALMERSTON'S. He has given them nothing better to fight about. He is indeed popular enough at Southampton. But a short time before he had been received with all en thusiasm on his intentionally accidental visit. Yet, 1 when it came to an election, the question whether a follower of Lord PatmEnsTort,or a London Alder man, who had gone over for the occasion to Lord DERBY, should be elected, did not seem to weigh a straw with the Southampton politicians. How can we wonder at it. What could Mr. MANGLES pro mise in the name of his chief, that Mr. ROSE could not have promised in the name of his ? It is hardly conceivable that Toryism, as Toryism, could have fought the battle with a more insigni ficant candidate. A London alderman is generally nobody out of the Guildhall or the Mansion House, though there are a few passable exceptions. A London Lord Mayor, even, like a prophet, is nothing in his own country, though Paris shop keepers think MILORD MAIRE to be almoet a vice roy ; and though we do not wish to speak disre spectfully of civic dignities, we suppose it is noto rious—if not, the speaking at Southampton made it so—that Alderman ROSE is hardly up to par as aldermen go. His best friends will doubtless ad vise him to adopt in the House of Commons the policy by which, we are told on the highest autho rity, "even a fool is counted wise." Yet, with such a man, a mere Tory counter—a mere lobby member—Toryism triumphs in a borough of long liberal reputation, and with an unquestionable and large majority of Liberal electors even now. The Liberal candidate was a man of some' hat more standing indeed, still we must confess that there was not enough in the man to give him, personally, any overwhelming advan tage. It was pretty evenly, so far as politics were concerned, a vote for PALMERSTON or a vote for DERBY. We complain only that that difference was wholly uninteresting to the electors. An influential contemporary, angry that a PALMERSTON man should be rejected, complains that Mr. MANGLES offered the electors only some political funks, some Effete Liberal cries, as he terms them, when he ought to have displayed the PALMERSTON foreign policy, and all the glories of his magnificent war expenditure in time of peace. We must differ from our contemporary. Poor Mr. MANGLES, who justly reproached the ambitious Alderman for political tergiversation, and for re versing, at Southampton, his political programme at Newport, was himself but a questionably hearty Liberal. The Ballot, Church Rate Abolition, Extension of the Suffrage—ho did not mind voting for all these if the Southampton folk would send him to Parliament, and gave a victory to the Railway over the P. 0. ; but them who p o believed one thing,edtha however, thecareda straw for any of the electors were quite sure,—if eyen Mr. MANGLES cared about them, Lord PALMERSTON did not. And just this, we have no doubt at all, lost the election. The Italian cause is doubtless popular enough, but Lord PALMERSTON is no more likely to get universal suffrage for the Romans and the evacuation of the city by its oppressors, than Lord DERBY. And, as to America, it is quite certain that the Tories would keep us out of complicatiots there as effectually as the Whigs. Denmai lc again, Prussia, Austria, — in regard to all these Governments what can or will Lord PALMERSTON do for the better cause, more than the Tories. Theoretically, indeed, the Liberals are far ahead of the Tories in their foreign policy, but the country sees nothing done. But when inefficiency abroad is not compensated by something like a vigorous Liberal policy at home, what should rouse the Liberals to a party contest. P They will naturally drop (Irwin to local squabbles. Had the Liberal Lord the good luck to have been the candidate of the P. 0., of course ho would have got in ; so entirely, in the hands of a non political Premier has the fire of party died away. We have only to imagine such an absurdity as Lord PALMERSON staking the existence of his Cabinet on a substantial extension of the suffrage, abolition of purchaseable boroughs, and the ballot to make representation a reality, and we may be pretty sure that the fire of Political zeal would then burn to tinder all the wet blankets which rival companies could attempt to throw over it. So again, if Mr. MANGLES could have Icome forward v,ith the avowal that Lord PAL MERSTUN had at last seen the folly and wrong of a seventy millions taxation in time of peace, and that he would reduce expenditure by five millions, at least, this year, as an instalment to wards a further reduction, and abolition of the income tax the following year—will any one tell ns that the aldermanic Tory neophyte would have had the shadow of a chance. On the contrary, however, the best bids yet have been from the Tories. Mr. DISRAELI has offered a reduction of five mil lions. Lord PALMERSTON'S 'friends, on what authority we know not, tell us that he will give us in the next budget a reduction of only two millions. Lord PALMERSTON, by his known aversion to reform of Parliament, and his fixed determination to wring the largest conceivable amount of taxation from the people, by his slipperiness, even on such abominations as the Night Poaching Bill, and his general policy of beating the more liberal part of his own supporters by the aid of the Tories, has, as we judge, completely paralysed the Liberal party. They do not care to exert themselves for him. They began to think that tie Whigs who duped them at WILLIS'S Rooms want the teaching of the cold shade of opposition ; at least, they will, till Liberal leaders become Liberals, earft less about the political views of candidates than their connection with local matters. They will not fight for a Cabinet of political eunuchs. A singular case of imprisonment for refusal to give evidence has just occurred in Glasgow. A labouring man, named TERENCE - M‘GHEE, had stolen two half-sovereigns from a letter which was intrusted to him to post. He confessed —but not in the confessional—the fact to his priest, the Rev. P. NPLAITCRLIN ; the priest in duces him to make restitution, and writes for him a letter, enclosing a one pound note, to the person who should have received the two half-sovereigns. The letter was anonymous, and the intention of the priest, plainly, was, having convinced the man of his sin, and probably inflicted some spiri tual penalty, to spare him the consequences of ex posure, and give him a better chance of entirely regaining his character.: _ _ _ Independently of the priest, the only evidence of the theft was a letter to the Dublin General Post office, to make inquiry as to the lost money; there was no evidence to prove that the man to whom the letter was sent had not received the looney said to be lost. As the case stood, the priest alone, in virtue of the confidential confession he received,could supply the missing link, and that link he refused to furnish. His reason was that in his official character, though not in the confessional, and solely in consequence of his bearing that character, he had received the confession, and been instrumental in doing what was right between the chief and his victim. It was pointed out that the writing of the anonymous letter for the accused man was going beyond any privilege the law conceded to his office, and that the man deserved the legal punishment for his crime. The prisoner himself was willing to plead guilty to save his priest. But the priest was firm. He felt assured, he said, that he had done what was right from beginning to end, though he acknow ledged he might have gone beyond the strict letter of the law. He refused to make such answers as would convict the man who had trusted him, and was accordingly sentenced to imprisonment for thirty daye. Society generally will, we should think, respect his refusal to answer, as they did that of the son of Baron DE VIDIL in the case of his own father. If the law be against the priest, and if we must confess that the privilege of the clerical office might be abused by a minister of religion, we must respect the wish of a Christian minister to deal with a case of this kind in a far better way than law possibly eould do. If every thief had at his elbow a cleri cal adviser, who could convince him of his sin to the extent of obtaining restitution, the profession which is now so alarmingly rife would soon come to an end. We are not in a position to affirm that the justice who tried the case had any legal alter native to committing the priest, but we much re gret he had not. There does not appear to have been a trace of religious persecution in the matter ; but while the committal was avowedly made to farther the ends of justice, it is very obvious that its general result will be the other way. The priest's evidence might have served to con vict and punish M‘GHEE, a very immaterial end of justice; hut the whole proceeding will only make clergymen more wary in furthering the highest ends of justice—obtaining restitution for the injured, and seeking the reformation of the offender. The man who can be persuaded by a clergyman to refund what has been stolen is not likely to steal again. SUDDEN D EATII OF THE MAYOR OF PORTSMOUTH. —We regret to announce the sudden demise of Mr. Thomas Ellis Owen, mayor, alderman, and justice of the peace for the borough of Portsmouth. About a fortnight ago Mr. Owen had a serious attack of illness, but he so far recovered as to be able to resume his public duties, and no fears were entertained by his friends. On Monday last he presided at a meeting of the borough council, and was able to ride out on the two following days. The attack, however, was renewed, and he died on Thursday afternoon,•at half• past three o'clock, we believe from disease of the heart. Mr. Owen was by profession an architect, and he also held a lucrative appointment as surveyor under the government. TIIE " BLOCKADE."—By the m ,ils received from Nassau (Now Providence), last night we learn that two rebel steamers from Charleston arrived at that port on the 20th inst. There were two other steamers in the port of Charleston when these vessels left. It would thus seem that the trade of Charleston is still very brisk. Prior to the rebellion it would have been thought a very wonderful thing to see four sea••going steamships in that harbour at one time, and such a thing as four steamships, or one steamship, engaged in foreign trade from Charleston would have raised the commercial prospects of the city to the highest pitch. The Nassau papers do not state what these vessels were laden with; but it was undoubtedly cotton— cotton probably shipped and sold on behalf of the Confede rate Government. Four steamer loads of that precious staple at the present time will bring a very handsome re turn to that Government. It will enable them to purchase two, three, or four " Alabamas" in England, or will pro cure from there all the military supplies the rebels may need during the winter. It is now proved that anything like an effective blockade of Charleston is hopeless.—New York Times. The " Messiah" will be given on Monday at Exeter-hall by the National Choral Society with the follow ing strong cast:—Miss Banks, Miss Palmer, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. Santley ; conductor, Mr. G. W. Martin. The band and chorus of nearly 700 performers will have an extra rehearsal this evening, and every effort is being made to render this one of the finest performances of the "Messiah' ever heard in Exeter-hall. A NEW SWINDLING DODGE.—Before the Mayor of Slit ffield on Monday last, a man named Charles Hunts man was charged on remand with obtaining £5O respec tively from Messrs. Fisher and Reynolds and Mr. George Mather, the well-know n London turf commission agents. It appears that th e p r i soner sent to eac h o f the bookmakers mentioned a letter, them to execute c er t a i n comm i ss i ons on the Liverpool enclosing a cheque for £ 5O , in structin g Autumn Cup. On the faith of the transaction being genuine they invested the money as advised, and became liable for the bets ; but on the cheques being presented they were returned, marked "drawer not known." The prisoner was remanded. By an Imperial decree M. Edouard Foucaux has been appointed professor of Sanserit language and literature at the College of France. THE SUN' LONDO'N, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 13, 1862. QUICK DESPATCH.—PLYMOUTH, Friday.—The clipper ship Moravian, Captain Wm. Edward, belonging to Messrs. George Thompson, jun., and Co., of St. Helen's place, for Melbourne, which left the docks on the sth inst., Gravesend on the 6th, and the Downs on the 7th, having had a dead beat down the Channel, arrived off the Sound this morning at 8 o'clock. The Moravian, which went up Channel about a month since with gold from Australia, has been little over three weeks in the docks, including the time occupied discharging inward cargo, re-sheathing, and load ing her outward cargo, which includes a large quantity of zinc and season goods. She line also on deck about 100 splendid French merino rams.. THE AMERICAN SHIP JAMES BROWNE, OF PIII LA DELPHIA,—On Wednesday and Thursday some most important services were rendered to this vessel, which was in a sinking state off the Sussex coast, by the Rye lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution, in conjunction with two Coastguard galleys. The ship was bound' from the Chincha islands to Hamburgh, with guano. She was ob served in a heavy surf to be knocking on the Boulder Sand Banks ; off Rye, and to have a signal of distress flying. The lifeboat, and two Coastguard galleys, containing altogether 25 men, immediately put off to her help. The ship was found to be rapidly making water, and the united and un ceasing exertions of her crew of 14 men were unable, with out further assistance, to keep her afloat. However, the additional force of men on board, who laboured untiringly at the pumps for many hours, succeeded at last in bringing the ship safely to the Downs. Here she was taken in tow by two steam tugs, which brought her on Thursday after noon to the Victoria Docks, with seven feet of water in her hold. DESPERATE ENCOUNTER WITH SALMON POACHERS. —Since the fresh weather set in in the beginning of De cember, salmon have been swarming on the spawning-beds of the Earn in the neighbourhood of Comrie, as well as in the other streams of Perthshire, and a gang of determined poachers have been killing the fish on the fords almost nightly, and setting the watchers at defiance. Late on Tuesday night, or early on Wednesday morning, a party of poachers, numbering thirteen, appeared on the ford almost opposite the parish church, having their faces blackened, and with torches and leisters. They succeeded in a short time in killing seven large salmon. As soon as the poachers left the river, they were set upon by four watchers and two assistants, when a serious and desperate encounter took place between the two parties. Owing, however, to the super for numbers of the poachers, the watchers were severely maltreated, and one of them especially, named Guthrie, was sadly cut about the face and head, and had a narrow escape from being drowned in the Earn. He was attended to by a surgeon, who dressed his wounds. During the melee, two or three of the poachers carried away the fish, and immediately returned to assist their associates in the scuffle. The poachers were so audacious as, after the watchers had been rendered powerless, to enter the river again in order to kill lnore salmon; but they were not so successful as at first. On Monday week, a party killed a number of salmon at the bridge, some of them weighing 301 b. The poachers, up to yesterday afternoon, had not been discovered. The fish are so numerous this season that the herd boys are capturing them daily from the banks of the Earn with cleeks.—Scotsman. The Moniteur says:—" By a decree of the Bth inst., the Emperor, on the proposition of the Minister of War, has conferred the military medal on Corporal Muller, of the Sapeurs-pompiers of Paris, who has distinguished himself at several fires, and recently got severely burnt in both hands and the left wrist in preserving from certain death an artist at the Opera." The M'oniteur de 1' Armee publishes a regulation emanating from the Ministry of War, relative to the pre cautions to be taken in order to prevent accidents by fire. The use of the ordinary chemical matches is interdicted in barra . cks and other military establishments. The " Allu mettes hygieniques amorphes" are alone authorized. Sol diers, or other persons employed in the above places, who infringe this regulation will be severely punished. On the arrival in Paris of the eight o'clock train from Havre yesterday morning, the passengers in one of the carriages called the attention of the railway officials to a young woman who, during the journey, had given un doubted symptoms of insanity. She was accordingly taken before the commissary of police attached to the station, and her conduct at once convinced him that she was insane. It was ascertained that she came from Ambrevilee (Seine luferieure) to enter on a situation as lady's-maid in Paris, but had suddenly lost her senses. As she could not give the address of the family in which she had been engaged, the commissary of police sent her to the Prefecture until her relatives can be informed of her unfortunate condition. THE NEW DECLARATION OF TITLE ACT.—This act will take effect on the first day of the ensuing month. Its object is to enable persons having interest in land to obtain a judicial declaration of title, so as to enable them to make an indefeasible title to persons claiming under them as purchasers for a valuable consideration. This act, like the new Transfer of Land Act, is not compulsory. The course to be adopted is by petition. TOBACCO SMOKING IN SIIAKSPEARE'S DAY.—Sir Walter Raleigh; of whom the apocryphal story is told of his servant believing him to be on fire, -but which has long since been given to the Marines, from his position at Court soon made smoking fashionable AG Shakspeare's theatre, the Globe, at Bankside, on part of the ground on which one of the brewing houses of Messrs. Barclay and Perkins now stands—" the amusements of the audience," says Mr. Dyce, " previous to the commencement of the pla3, were, reading, playing at cards, smoking tobacco, drinking ale, and eating apples and nuts. Even during the performance," he adds, " it was customary for wits, critics, and young gallants, who were anxious to attract attention, to station themselves on the stage, either lying onrushes or seated on hired stools, while their pages furnished them with pipes and tobacco." —Tobacco : its Use and Abuse. The Figaro-Programme states that M. Veuillot is about to publish a brochure in reply to the allusion of which he has been the object in M. Emile Augier's comedy. GAROTTE OUTRAGES.----Yesterday morning, shortly before 1 o'clock, Mr. Dickson, residing at 8, Had dington-terrace, Greenwich, was walking towards that town from Peckham, and when within a short distance of the New-cross turnpike-gate some one sprung upon him and seized his throat. He had neither seen nor heard his as sailant approach. Mr. Bickson immediately became insen sible, and on recovering consciousness found he was lying in the gutter. On searching his pockets he discovered that nothing had been taken from them. He then proceeded to the Greenwich police-station, and gave information of the attack. The sergeant on duty examined his neck and found the indentations of a person's fingers, and that the flesh was discoloured. THE O'CONNELL FAMILY.—A sister of Daniel O'Connell died last Tuesday at Tallyroan, Kilkenny, within a few hours of her husband, Councillor Finn, one of the founders of the Catholic Association and formerly M.P. for that county. Mrs. Finn, who had been several years an invalid, died at 5 p.m., and her husband expired at 12 p.m. His illness was of only a few days' duration. Being child less they had for many years led a most secluded life, and their deathbeds were uncheered by the presence of a single friend. Mr. Finn was 78 years old. CHARGE AGAINST A CLERGYMAN.—At the Pewsey (Wilts) Petty Sessions, yesterday, the Rev. Herbert Wil liams, curate of Tideombe and Fosbury, was brought up charged with an indecent assault. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutrix, a respectable girl of 17, that she is in service at the house of a Mr. Barnes, where the prisoner has occasionally resided. On the 26th November last he, the girl, and the child she was nursing were alone in the parlour. All the inmates had gone out. The pri soner kissed the girl and committed an indecent assault, Mrs. Barnes returned about 9 o'clock, when the girl told her what had happened. She informed her father on the following day. The latter went to see the prisoner at dinner time, when he said that if he had done wrong he was sorry for it, and wished to be forgiven. The magis trates (Mr, T. E. Fowle and the Rev. J. H. Gale) commit ted the prisoner for trial at the next Quarter Sessions at Devizes. allowing bail, himself in £lOO, and two sureties in E 0 each. The prisoner was removed in the custody of the police. He is a married man with one child. LEGAL JOBBING IN HIGH PLACES.---All extra ordinary instance of legal jobbing has recently be en com municated ,to us, which ought certainly to form the basis of a Parliamentary inquiry. The present Lord Chancellor, as is well known, was the author of the Bankruptcy Bill at present in operation, and which works so badly for ail unfortunate creditors. There are also loud complaints frum certain ex-officers of the court under the old law, who were paid by fees, and had no recompense; but that is not the ques tion before us. Amongst the offices created by the new law is one of attorney to those bankrupts who make a declaration that they have no money, and cannot afford to employ an attorney themselves. They therefore, in fact, come before the court in forma pauperis, and the Govern ment provides an attorney for them, who is paid by fees—and a very lucrativeberth it is. Now, the Lord Chancellor has appointed a Mr. Aldridge, his son-in-law, to the office, and we are assured that his fees, during 12 months, have amounted to £15,000. This is not merely a scandal and a shame in itself, but it is one for which the Lord Chancellor is re sponsible. It is preposterous that an attorney practising in the Court of Chancery should be able to wring £15,000 a year out of the pockets of the taxpayers of this country; a..d the evil becomes still more flagrant when we find the party dispensing this piece of legal patronage is the Lord haneellor, and the receiver of it is his own son-in law. We hope that when Parliament, meets the attention of the Legislature will be directed towards this abominable affair. We have had several complaints made to us of the manner in which the duties of the office are performed, but to enter into detail upon these would probably involve us in an action for libel, although we might state no more than the actual truth. We, therefore, rest content with exposing this shameful misapplication of the public money ; and for which the Lord Chancellor is directly—and those who , appointed him are indirectly—responsible.— /rests Guardian.

The prices of the neces saries of life have always been increasing, and some mea sure was required to ameliorate the co ndition of the small tradesmen and officials.

"An English magazine has appeared at St, Petersburg It is called the Nevski Magazine." POLAND. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) WARSAW, DEC. 7. When I last reported to you the lamentable scenes of riot and disorder which took place at Prypin on the occasion of designating men for recruits in the Russian army, and though convinced that those scenes were brought about through the agency of the Government, still I hardly imagined that simi lar occurrences should be repeated in other parts of the kingdom. Unfortunately such is the case; and another outbreak of the peasantry, infuriated at the prospect of being sent as recruits into the Russian army, occurred at Okniez, in the Government of Radom. After administering a sound thrashing to the members of the commission and the officers who protected them, destroying all the official papers and documents, they returned to their villages ap parently satisfied with their work. It is, however, but just to state that the nobility refuse to take any part in this recruiting business, try to find every excuse to absent themselves, and it is only when a threatening and peremptory order from the autho rities compels them to perform this invidious task that they are obliged to yield, for fear of being themselves enrolled. The anniversary of the national insurrection of November 29, 1830, passed off in this metropolis, and, as far as reports go, throughout the country, without any public demonstrations, except funeral services in all the churches; and even the evening was unusually quiet—as the revolutionary com mittee had issued directions that no one was to leave his habitation after nine o'clock. The streets looked deserted, and hardly anyone was to be seen in them ; but after midnight a loud noise was heard from the rattling of away carriages convey ing fresh victims to the citadel, the Government having selected this tranquil part of the night for making numerous arrests. Nothing, in fact, is neglected that can serve as a pretext for depicting this country in the most unfa vourable colours before Europe, and for keeping up a system of terror and persecution which would not be tolerated in Russia. Thus, in a small town, Gar wolin, three young boys were exercising their skill with a revolver by firing at a target, an amuse ment of which no one cared to take notice. As soon, however, as this circumstance came to the knowledge of the authorities, these young fellows were arrested, tried by a court-martial, and, as it is generally reported, condemned to be shot. To arrive at this sentence it was represented that these young men were three emissaries, convey ing, in a vehicle, which they drove themselves, a large quantity of arms, revolvers, stilettos, and false passport: ; that, when brought before,the court, they at once confessed to have been emis saries of the Central National Committee, which no man, in his right senses, would believe; but it was sufficient evidence for the Russian Justice to commit these inexperienced and unfortunate youths. In Volhynia, the outrages committed, with the connivance of the authorities, are most appalling. In the town of Zytomiera and its environs, a gang of thieves and brigands, who infest that locality, attack and enter the houses, carry from them all the contents, and enforce on the inhabitants a heavy tax. Being entirely disarmed—as the use of arms is prohibited—the poor inhabitants have no means of defence, and are at the mercy of these depredators. The authorities remain indiffe rent to this state of things, and will not grant one single musket, even to kill a wolf, which ale numerous at this time of the year, and penetrate the farms, carry away cattle and poultry, to the great consternation of the people. To the repeated solicitations of the pecple for some protection, the Government makes no answer, and treats them with contumely. Such are the acts of the civilised Russia, a civilisation worthy of its Asiatic and savage origin. The public sympathy and attention are now con stantly direcied towards the trial about to take place n St. Petersburg of the Marshals and other nobles of Podolia, for presenting the well-known address embodying the requirements of the inhabitants of the province to the Emperor. Considering that the laws of Russia, such as they are, authorise the pro vincial public assemblies the right of petitioning the Sovereign directly—of declaring its s entiments and of claiming redress, the step of the Podolian nobility was perfectly legal. It pourtrayed the de plorable state of the provinces, the general misery prevailing in them, the abuse of the Russian civi lians, the necessity of reuniting all Polish provinces under a Government composed of Poles ; and the Emperor should have listened to it, and, as the Head of the empire, should have see n justice done in every way. Thus he would have reconciled the Poles, instead of irritating them still more, by punishing that in the Poles which he is constantly asking of his Russian subjects. To condemn the -Podolian nobles would be a most iniquitous pro ceeding, and would leave a stigma on the character of the Emperor Alexander 11., whose Ministers are always invoking the observance of the treaties with regard to other countries. Iu laying their :grievances and soliciting their redress—in wishing to be governed humanely, and showing their determination to share the persecu tions inflicted on other Polish provinces by Russia, the Podolian marshals only demanded the fulfilmeat of those engagements which the treaty of Vienna in 1815 has stipulated for them. The Article I. of that treaty grants to Poland a constitution and national institutions which the Russian Emperors, as Kings of Poland, swore to maintain, but from which they thonahr themselves free by the Polish insurrection in 1831. Such conduct on the part of Russia bus never been, and it is to be hoped never shall be, approved by England, and as Lord Palmer ston, in his celebrated dispatch at the time to Lord Haytesbury, observed, the duties of Russia towards Poland have become more binding, and nothing, could excuse her from trampling upon the most solemn treaties contracted, together with other Powers, in the face of Europe, towards Poland and the Polish nation. - - SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOTV. Yesterday was the last day of the Smithfield Club Cattle Show for the present year. The number of visitors was not so great as on the previous days, but still the attendance was very good for a last day. There were very few animals in either of tho departments which did not find purchasers, several sales being effected yesterday. Some few of the beasts have been already removed, and the remain- der will be in the course of to-day. Among the prizes which were disposed of yes terday were :—Mr. Coates's Hereford cow, in class 8, the winner of the second prize, which was pur chased by Mr. Sheppard, of Limehouse-causeway ; Mr. Frost's short-horned steer in class 9, the winner of the third prize, sold to Messrs. Clarke and Sons, Richmond; and Sir Whichcote's short horned cow in class 12, the winner of the third prize, bought by Mr. Palmer, of Wentworth, near Rotherham. Scarcely n pen of sheep remained unsold last evening, there having jmen a brisk sale of them in the early part of the day. In class 42 Mr. Druce'S pen of fat wether sheep of the Oxfordshire breed, which took the second prize in their class, were dis posed of to Mr. Coliingwood, of Pratt-street, Cam" den-town ; and Mr Overman's pen of cross breeds , in class 45, which took the second prize in their class, to Mr. Pope, of Frederick• street, Caledonian road.

STAIE OF 7 RADE, MANCHESTER, Dec. 12.—The yarn market 08 been very firm and strong, spinners asking higher prices. The amount of business done for shipping has been but small, but the home trade have bee; free buyers of most descripti ons o f yarn a t an 11 ' 1 ' vance of id. to ld. per lb. on Tuesday's Pr ices. There has also been a fair inquiry for ;arias gi lt : able to the markets of India and the Levant, bi t " the high prices asked have checked business Of these markets. For cloths there was a little no re business done on Wednesday and yesterday, 0 1 0 to the active state of the Liverpool market and '- advance in cotton. This applied chiefly to printe rs, long-cloths, and T-cloths, but India goods Were . comparatively neglected, owing to the advance °.' manded on the part of sellers. This improve raerls so far as it went, has almost entirely disaPP etlrea to-day, and sellers report an exceedingly flat mar ket. Manufacturers are firm in demanding 018 advance, but buyers are unwilling to give it. 13° sales during the last six days at Liverpool ha °, reached the large quantity of 59,000 bales of e o ' ton, of which 37,000 are set down as talsen by t r y trade. This is much beyond the presen t ra` is of consumption, and may indicate that 323°r mills are about to resume work. It .„ known that some kinds of goods are €l`6 tirely out of stock in this market, but, so far as 7 1 10 have heard, the contracts offered for suc h g ood are too limited in quantity and too 107 ., price to induce millowners to open their establib;, ments. There may be some exceptions, h0We1..,6 and it seems not unlikely that there will be cm increase of production after Christmas. Sortienlg which started working a week or two ago ar e . us " iv o ,. very low qualities of Surats cotton, and grea t c° lo sf plaints are heard among the work-people of t . l le ao , wages and extra trouble given by it. This i s ' jo g bably one reason, where the mills are only ratilisvi three or four days per week, why there are se 0 complaints of an indisposition on the part he r ti operatives to take work. In one district we we lt of operatives who used to earn 20s. or 21$. Per e if f being only able now to get 14s. or 15s. Pe r 1; p er and in another where they used to earn 1264 week with American cotton, it is said now tile/ only earn 4s, with much harder work. fi .RECEPTION OF THE NEW' R irg,slll AMBASSADOR AT THE TUILE.RIES' • t The lifoniteur of yesterday gives an acco u nt , of the reception at the Tuileries, on Thursday 11/s ' to Baron Budberg, the new Russian ambassad°`r in France.
