LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 29, 1862, So last night, after all, preliminaries of capitula tion were offered and accepted. Once more Lord PALMERSTON has readily shelved the measures of a colleague, when they seemed likely to give him trouble; and once more the strength of pecuniary interests, although but a recent creation of our Parliament, has triumphed over the administra tion. We are not surprised. What body of repre sentatives of the ordinary character, with seats to keep, could stand such a charge as that of the Wesleyan Merrimac, Captain SCOTT, commander; it was worked by a three hundred thousand pounds grant in aid, power, and its relentless " prongs" threatened a rent among the local supporters of each member assaulted, which would almost cer tainly sink him at the next election. The House was fairly run down. Hon. members had to think of their parliamentary life. And we doubt not that most of the regular supporters of the Government were but too thankful when they found that a council of war had ordered Mr. LOWE to haul down his flag. It was not one moment too soon. The speeches of the previous night from Mr. OSBORNE, Mr. ADDERLEY, and Mr. BAINES, not to mention others less thoroughgoing, showed that if the subject were discussed much longer, a wholly new aspect of the case was dawning on the country. It would have become difficult to defend, not the mode of payment or of paying for results merely, but payment at all. The minority report of the Commissioners, hitherto unnoticed in Parliament, was obtaining a promi nence likely to render the kind of compromise re port of the majority of doubtful wisdom. If the Government would save the system in any shape, and if the beneficiaries under the old code were to get anything at all in perpetuity, the sooner a settlement were come to, the better, so the Cabinet seem to have thought. The result is, that bravely as Lord GRANVILLE has fought on behalf of the national exchequer, that is on behalf of its not paying for work unless the work was really done,—the Cabinet, as a whole, thought discretion the better part of valour, and have offered terms which the opposition accept, M r . w ALPOLE "amiably," Mr. DISRAELI daintily. Nominally the concessions are a compromise,. not, says Mr. LOWE, a settlement which shall give a triumph to the advocates of any particular opinion, but one which shall end in a manner satisfactory to the country and conducive to the great interests in volved in the question of education. We hope it will prove so. Satisfactory to the clerical, managing, and teaching interest it will certainly be ; since it " involves on the'part of the public," we are told, " a very considerable pecuniary sacrifice." If, there fore, the great grant-receiving interest be wise, it will not provoke much more discussion of the sub ject ; the grantees' party appear indeed anxious to secure more time; to put off further debate till after Easter, the object being, apparently, to see if the guardians of the public purse, having yielded So much to pressure, cannot be made to yield a little more, to yield perhaps all, so far as paying money tors. c oncned ; that being the:real object of the ag ita- IT Se, Nve o n ly hope they will overshoot thei r mark; th at i mpartial men. the House has yielded too much t o them already, b eing ! certain to become before long the opinion of I The points concede e chiefly three. First, a substantial portion of the grant is to be given on the general report of the inspector—that i mo ney is still to be largely voted for reports, on inspection , s uch as Mr. ADDER LEY described so justly —re p orts on "general order," " good moral atmosphere," and such vague desoriptions, are to be followed by a grant—and the may object of returning to these empty generalities is stated to be, to make the grants to the teachers and managers more " certain." Whether the Go vernment will persist in ascertaining results which can be tested,. and making a more substantial pay ment for these, remains to be seen ; if not, the nation will, after all, be cheated out of its money for the benefit of merely amateur educationists. We wish 1 children to be clean, orderly, and decent, and espe cially to learn to bow properly to their betters—to th e clergyman and his wife and daugh ters more p a rticularly—and " to all who are placed in autho \rity over them." Still we grudge the payment of nearly a million a year for this sort of thing. To wooden frigates, the Congress and the Cumber land, is worth reading and pondering about all over again. It has been related anew in a very lucid and compact form in a communication pub lished to day by our chief morning contempo rary, a communication adiressed to our contemporary by a correspondent of undoubted intelligence, a correspondent who evidently understands very well what ho is Nuiting about. " We find," he says, "that the Confederate iron lIES, plated steamer Merrimac, in commencing the action with the Federal wooden frigate Cumberland and Congress, fired two guns at the former, and then struck her with her sharp bows, making a jagged hole in her side seven feet in extent. The Cum berland immediately began to sink, when the Mer rimac backed a short distance and ran into her a second time, making a terrible hole in her, the water running into her at a furious rate, and finally sinking her." The Merrimac next turns her attentions to the Congress, and, in less than an hour, the latter strikes to her iron-sided adversary. The Congress had 50 killed, includ ing three officers, 27 are reported wounded, and 40 prisoners, The corresponded; then goes on to remark that " the Cumberlani is reported to have had about 150 killed and wounded. The 100 lb. shot of the Cumberland, and tie shot from the bat teries on shore, are stated to have produced no effect on the Merrimac, and it is alsc said the 1801 b.-shot of the Federal shield ship Monitor, which after wards arrived at the scene of iction, produced but little more effect on the Merrinac's iron sides than did the 100 lb. shot of the Cumberland, and that it was demonstrated by the result of the fight that it was of little use to fire balls of less than 2001 b. at her." And finally, "W. L.," the correspondent whose remarks we are here quoting, thus completes his narrative :—" The Merrimac continued her fire, assisted by two gunboats, up to the evening, now throwing shells into the Federal camp at Newport News, and engagug the Minne• seta and other Federal vessels, the bt. Lawrence, Roanoke, and Mystic arriving during the afternoon, and proceeding up the James River. In the well ing the Federal turret ship Monitor, Capt. Lies son's iron battery, arrived from New York, and n'xt morning the two iron vessels engaged each other for two or three hours at long and short rangk without producing any perceptible effect upon each other, although the officers of the Monitor claim penetrating the sides of the Merrimac with three shots. Her hauling off from her action with the Monitor was most probably owing to her fuel or ammunition running short. The . results of this ac tion prove that iron-plated ships will not bedestroyed so easily as many people may imagine when in action." The conclusion to be arrived at from all this—and the above account of the action •of the Merrimac is so succinctly given that we have un hesitatingly yielded to the temptation of repeating it—the conclusion to be arrived at from all this we take to be conclusive. Nothing under a 200-pounder, we now know, can be of the slightest utility when discharged against the hull of evena hastilycontructed floating armadillo like the Merrimac of the Con federate Government. It is suggested, in conse quence of this proven fact, that some of our war ships should, henceforth, be mounted with no lesser ordnance than 300-pounders. For, obviously, unless a whole broadside of 100-pounders be conveyed upon a given point of an enemy's iron-cased war steamer, the steel shell or crust of that war vessel will remain unflawed and impervious to the shock of battle. It becomes in obvious, therefore, that wooden warships should be as rapidly as may be, and as strongly as may be " clothed all in steel," and in the next place that they should be every one of them armed, not a select few amongst them, but all of them without exception armed—invariably—with heavy ord nance ! ma teach them the three elements (unless they can learn them without our help) we should not grudge it. Next, the Government gives up grouping the children by age—that is, it gives up requiring that masters shall teach the children by a certain age what they ought to know by that age. We wish the children of the poor may be gainers by this — that the grantee party will be so is quite certain. Money will flow from the Treasury, Mr. LOWE assures them, wonderfully faster, and that is of course the great merit of the concession. Then, thirdly, the pupil teachers are to be more care fully secured, not in their rights, but in the expectations which masters and managers bad led them to form. How " conciliatory" the proposal —it stands thus—if the school has not earned enough for the managers to pay the pupil teachers by its grants, the Government will make it good—if it receives more than it wants the managers are to retain the surplus ! Surely we may hope that no managers will have the face to ask more than this. We wait, of course, to see the concessions in print—but, so far as we can under stand them, little check will now be left on the indolence of teachers and the neglect of managers. In regard to the last two resolutions of Mr. WALPOLE, those which have nothing to do with the details of the Code, but which provide for the bringing before the country in January any material alteration proposed to be made in the regulations ; also for Parliament having a month to express its opinion on the proposed alterations —in regard to these, no objection can be taken. Alterations ad verse to the interests of the Exchequer, as well as favourable to it, may be easily made by the Govern ment of the day ; and, if we remember rightly, the Government of which Mr. WALPOLE was a member, sinned in that way more than any other, considering the shortness of the time they were in office. On the whole, the surrender of last night must be regarded both as a Government defeat and a triumph of newly created interests. Never was measure more honestly conceived in the public interest than that now reduced to nihility. An immense depart ment had grown up, and was rapidly growing, which was proved to have left unbenefited the vast majority enormous o u t m h e s f c o h r i ld re n of teaching. t h e p Th o s o r t st which of it drew "no work no pay" was proposed by the Government, and those who ought to have done the work forthwith raise such a clamour on the insecurity of their pay that the House of Commons is frightened and the Go vernment bows to the threats of the forty thousand. Small encouragement this to all Governments to get the nation work for its money. Paying its officials is to be the grand thing. The Confederate iron-plated steamer, the Merri mac, has certainly given the world a taste, at last, of what is likely to be, henceforth, the new syste of naval tactics and the future character of mari. time warfare. Adieu, for ever, to the " old wooden " famous in heroic story," in the records The arrival of the New York has not added much to our previous information on the state of things in America. Some, even of the New York press, describe the retreat from Manassas like that both of ancient and modern history, in the annals both of classic Greece and living Britain—erst- of Prince GORTSCHAKOFF across the harbour ai while, but even in the latter instance we may be certain no longer, of affording an im penetrable barrier against foreign in- Sebastopol, as " a great success." Probably the Federals had little inclination for a battle even if they had known of the retreat. The Richmond papers assert that it was made for purely strategic reasons. The question, however, is, was it not the strategy of the Federal Generals in the West, and of BANKS at Harper's Ferry, which compelled the Confederates to retreat strategically. In the pro bable state of the weatier it is not likely that the Federals will be able to follow at all promptly their retrea•"ing enemies ; and we may not, therefore, for some time hear of movements in Virginia. All, however, as so often observed, depends on the point respecting which we have but presumptive evidence—the spirit of the South. One accotnt tells us that the Fede rals were welcomed at Winchester, the town not a great way from Harper's Ferry. Other accounts breathe nothing but Southrn rage and desperation. In the West, on both sides the Mississippi, the gain is clearly with the Federals. In Missouri and Arkansas the military triumphs are complete. On the Mississippi, Columbus has now been abandoned ; at New Madrid, further south, they have followed the example of Columbus ; and at Memphis—the commercial capital of Tennessee, and almost on the border of the next State, Mississippi—the inhabi • 1 tants seemed divided in opinion whether to burn I and quit the place or to remain and take the good the Federals might bring them. Such a state of things would show at least a strong and desperate Confederate element in the place. Fresh Federal victories are also announced in Tennessee. As might be expected, the affair of the Merrimac has caused Congress to make large appropriations for the purpose of building iron-clad vessels, and with the extraordinary energy American mechanics and engineers have shown, we may expect that in a very short time they will have a powerful fleet of ironsides afloat in almost incredibly short time. More than fifteen millions of dollars (£3,000,000) vaders. " Farewell, a long farewell," to the " hearts of oak," heretofore the shields of our insular independence—the human hearts of oak manning those floating citadels can hereafter be alone counted upon with anything like implicit reliance as the guardians of our imperial rule. So far as the exigencies of the age are concerned, we might really almost as well resort to the old lumbering style of naval architecture peculiar, let us say, for example, to the days of his Majesty King HENRY VIII., when our commanders upon the deep were in the habit of clambering up on the lofty deck of a huge fantastic structure something like a magnified city barge, the said commanders being arrayed in steel corslets, each carrying a baton like a gilded rolling pia, each combining amphibiously in his own person the dignities of General and Admiral ! We might as lief revert, we say, to that old obsolete style of naval architecture as retain unaltered, unmodified, unim• proved, the later style of our wooden frigates and three-deckers. Hitherto, so far as any actual con flict itself has been concerned, the changes intro duced in the navies of England, viz., of France or of America, have been changes, to a certain extent at least, of purely conjectural efficacy. We had— • - until these recent tidings from the opposite shores of the Atlantic came to us—simply to draw our own conclusions theoretically as to what might be the consequences in future seafights of so complete and absolute ,a transformation. It was not alone that sails, as means of propulsion, had been superseded almost entirely , at any rate had been wholly subordinated to the application of steam as a motive power. It was not, again, merely that the huge, floundering paddlewheels first of all in vogue as the precise implements used for the purposes of propulsion by the steam-engines constructed within our men-of war—it was not alone that the old paddlewheels had in most instances given way to the more secure and reliable, and to a certain extent, one might almost say, indestructible screw propeller. It was that toengine, to the screw propeller, to all the steamgrea lesser improvements the teror applied by engineering science to the enhancement of the latent forces and the varied capacities of our giant war vessels than had within the last few years been added—by ourselves, by our Gallic neighbours, by our youthful kindred in America, in what were formerly known as the United States, united now no longer—a complete easing of iron to one war ship after another. Instance the grandest instance of all, our English Warrior ! Instance, that appropriate symbol of the French incentive, La Gloire ! Instance the now historical Merrimac —just fresh from battle, dented by can non-balls, smirched by gunpowder. The world no longer conjectures, America her self no longer" calculates" what may or may not be accomplished by one of these great iron-clad war vessels--we all now know for certain the perfect efficacy f or war lik e p u rposes of that new method of carrying on maritime wars, of this new and improved style of naval architecture. There are henceforth actual facts to go upon. We can now look back to recorded experiences. The story of the Merrimac's triumph over the two Federal are already voted for iron-clad gunboats, batteries, and the requisite navy-yard works. In this kind of work they will rapidly outstrip the South, having so much larger manufacturing power at their command. Meantime the Merrimac was repairing, and we may yet hear of another brush between her and the Monitor. The sum of the in telligence is, that the Confederate army in Virginia will take a strong position about halfway between Washington and Richmond ; that it has not with drawn all its troops and batteries from the Potomac lower down ; that the Federals have it all their own way on the Mississippi and the Border States there ; that the Confederate troops suffer great pri vations, but do not yet speak of giving up; and that the Generals FLOYD and PILLOW, who managed so badly at Fort Donnelson, have been suspended by JEFFERSON DAVIS. They seem well to deserve it. Thus the struggle is still as far from showing signs of speedy termination as ever; the South being still such a m y s t er y of secrecy, that any eve nt, almost, may be announced any day. Francis Countess of Albemarle and Colonel the Hon. P. Cost have left town for Stoner, Newton Abbott, Devonshire. Viscountess Newport and Miss Anson have returned to the Earl of Wilton's, at Melton Mowbray, from Belvoir Castle. Lord and Lady Foreeter have arrived at Melton Mowbray. ME SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 29, 1862. "SAD i'ES TO THE 's. LAT E WS. AMERICA. Per Norwegian, by Telegraph to Portland and from Londonderry.) NEW YORK, MARCH 17. General M'Clellan has issued an address to the army of the Potomac, in which he says:— " I have held you till now inactive in order that you might give a death-blow to the rebellion. For midable artillery you now have had created, and th© Potomac army is now a real army, magnificent in materiel, admirable in discipline and construc tion, and excellently well armed and equipped. The moment for action has arrived. " I know I can trust in you to save the country. The period for inaction is past. I will bring you now face to face with the rebels, and only pray that God may defend the right. "In whatever direction you may move, however strange my actions may appear, bear in mind that my fate is linked with yours. All I do is to bring you where you wish to be—on a decisive battle-field. It is my business to place you there. It shall be my care—it has ever been—to gain success with the least possible loss. I know that, if necessary, you will follow me to our graves for the righteous cause. " God smiles upon us! Victory attends us yet! I would not have you think that our aim is to be attained without a manly struggle. I will not disguise it from you that you have brave foes to encounter ; foemen well worthy of the steel that you will use so well. " I shall demand of you great and heroic exer- tion—rapid and long marches—privations perhaps. We will share all these together, and, when this sad war is over, we will all return to our homes and feel that we can ask no higher honour than the proud consciousness that we belong to the Army of the Potomac." Sworn statements have been made by deserters from the Confederate army that, on the 3d of March the Confederates had 90,000 men at Ma nassas, 25,000 between Manassas and Acquia Creek, and 12,000 at Winchester and other points —in all 150,000 men, who could be concentrated at Manassas at a day's notice. Commodore Foote, with several gunboats and a portion of the mortar fleet, has passed down the Mississippi. Their destination is supposed to be Island No. 10. TURIN, MARCH 28, EVENING. The rumours of Ministerial modifications are unfounded. The Ministry is only being completed. The portfolio of Foreign Affairs has been offered to General Durando, who, however, has not yet accepted it. CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 26. The following additional details of the recent engagement between the Turks and the Montene grins were published here to-day : " The inhabitants of Tranitza, one of the villages occupied about a month ago by the Montenegrins, summoned recently to their assistance a body of Bashi-Bazouks, who were in the neighbourhood, to deliver them from their assailants. "These irregular troops, amounting to from 400 to 600 men, had scarcely entered Tranitza when they were surrounded by a very considerable Mon tenegrin force. The Bashi-Bazouks, being thus surprised, were obliged to surrender without strik ing a blow, and were conducted to Cettigne. " Measures have been taken to expel the Monte negrins from the positions which they occupy, and to retrieve the want of caution shown by the commander of the Bashi-Bazouks." CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 28. According to news received from Syra, Nauplia has surrendered. Those insurgent chiefs who had not received the benefit of the amnesty had fled. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, MARCH 28 The declaration made by the representative of Electoral Hesse in the Federal Diet yesterday, expressed the wish of the Elector that the Federal Diet should fulfil its duty. The Electoral Government maintains that the proposition of Prussia and Austria does not state distinctly whether, when the " Estates" are spoken of, the first Chamber is meant ; whether also the expression " constitutional way," used in the Austro-Prussian note, alludes to the electoral law of 1831, or that of 1849 ; and whether the institu tions of Electoral Hesse, to be suppressed as at variance with the FederalrConstitution, are to dis• appear before or after the Electoral Government shall have come to an understanding with the country. MALTA, MARCH 28, 4.5 r.m The Himalaya, with the Japanese Ambassadors, arrived here at eleven this morning. They intend leaving for Marseilles on Monday. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY. BOURSE, March 28.—The amount of business transacted continues very limited. Threes, for the Account, commenced at 69f. 60c., and after receding to 69f. 45c., are now at 69f, 55e.

The Italian Chamber of Deputies, in its sitting of the 25th, passed three important bills ; one for the construction of a network of roads in Sicily ; another for the sinking of a submarine telegraph cable between Otranto and Corfu, and. the third for the extension of the law of military servitudes to all the provinces of the State. The Official Gazette of Turin publishes a long list of names of officers and privates of General Cialdini's corps who have distinguished themselves in the various actions against the Neapolitan bri gands. • The Opinione of Turin states that the Marquis of Torrearsa having refused the Portfolio of Foreign Affairs, the Cabinet had come to the conclusion that it was of no use for them to look out for an other colleague, unless certain changes were effected in the Cabinet. The portfolio of Foreign Affairs had therefore been offered to General Durando, and that of Grace and Justice to M. Conforti, a deputy ; while MM. Cordova and Mancini were to resign. The Monitore di Bologna, of the 24th, announces that on the preceding day an infamous attempt WBO made against the life of the Questor (the Prefect of Police) of that city, Advocate Pinna. He had just left his office in company with two of his colleagues, Dr. Cesari and Inspector Baccarani, and was quietly walking with them in the direction of the hotel at which they used to dine, when an old hand-grenade' rR ~~, GARIBALD 11 In our impression of yesterday we gave Gari baldi's address to the Italian priests of the 12th instant. It must, however, be read in connection with the previous address issued by him from Turin nearly four months ago, to the following effect : " To the Italian Priests, —A sublime mission is marked out for the true priests of Christ. Unless they belie their consciences as Italians, they cannot continue the accom plices of what is now doing at Rome to the injury of our country's holy cause. Let them, then, courageously take their stand on the breach in combating for the rights of the human race ; let them go down into the depths of their hearts, which are an emanation from god ; let them take counsel of their hearts as to their duties ; and let them, at length, spread the Holy Word of the religion of truth amongst the multitudes. They will feel proud of having acted well, and a grateful country will inscribe their names amongst those of the heroic sons by whom it has been re deemed. " Turin, Dec. 5, 1861." COURT CIRCUL.4.R. 'WINDSOR CASTLE, MARCH 28. Her Majesty and their Royal Highnesses the Princess Helena and Princess Louise drove out yesterday afternoon. Colonel the Hon. A. N. Hood attended on horseback. Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of Prussia (Princess Royal), attended by the Countess Blucher, drove in their grounds this morning. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Aumale, and the Duke of Cambridge, came to the Castle to-day, and lett in the afternoon. Her Majesty, with the members of the royal family, will, according to present arrangements, take her departure from Windsor Castle, and proceed to the Isle of Wight on Thursday next, the 3d proximo. _ _ The Queen will continue at her marine residence until the end of April or beginning of May, when it is her Ma jesty's intention to proceed to Balmoral, and keep her birthday at this quiet and secluded retreat. It is expected that her Majesty will again visit Windsor for a few days in the month of June. The visit to her Majesty of her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of Prussia (Princess Royal) will terminate on Monday next, when her royal highness will take her departure from Windsor, on her return to Prussia, by the 10 55 a.m. South-Western train, to arrive at the private station at Vauxhall at 12 40. Lord Palmerston, though suffering from a sharp attack of the gout, is not prevented from attending to pub lic business, and it is expected that he will be able to resume his Parliamentary duties early next week. Lady Marian Alford has left town on a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness of Northampton, at Castle Ashby, Northamptonshire. _ _ Mr. and Lady E. Drummond have arrived at Belvoir Castle on a visit to the Duke of Rutland.:; Mr. Lane Fox has arrived at Belvoir Castle on a visit to the Duke of Rutland, The King of Prussia has conferred the golden raeda! for art on Madame Ristori, who has arrived in Faris i-om Berlin. The Queen of Holland is expected on a visit to the Emptror and Empress of the French about the 23& April, ant. will remain a month. Towards the end of that period the King of Holland will also, it is thought, pay a visit to the French Court. The National Lifeboat Institution has safely re ceived from t friend a Bank of England note for £2OO. Numerous losses have lately taken place of vessels laden with grain from New York, Montreal, and Philadelphia. It appears from a return made up at Lloyd's that between the Ist of September, 1861, and the let of February, 1862, 29 vessels from those ports, with cargoes of most 500,000 bushels, have been lost, chiefly abandoned at ma, and it is supposed that this total does not represent nose than half of the actual number, The cause of the disasters is believed to he defective stowage and consequent choking of the pumps. BURDER V. HEATH.—In the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council yesterday, Dr. Phillimore, on the part of the Rev. Mr. Heath, said ho had been instructed by the reverend gentleman to express his regret that his views on certain subjects had been misunderstood. Lord Cran worth said a feeling of regret was not sufficient ; there must be a formal revocation. This was refused, and the case pro ceeded. At the conclusion of the arguments their lordships reserved their judgment. FANATICISM.—An act of extraordinary fanaticism was committed at Detmold, Westphalia, last week, says Galignans of the 27th. A father killed his son, a youth of 16, and after cutting off his head laid the body on a pile of wood, to which he was about to set fire, when some persons who saw what he had done, seized on him. The man de clared he had done nothing wrong in thus offering up his only son a sacrifice to the Lord, as Abraham was com manded to do. FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE LONDON DOCKS.—Yes terday morning, between 10 and 11 o'clock, a fatal acci dent happened to a man named Jeremiah Corley, aged 40 years, who lost his life under very distressing circumstances. It appeared that the unfortunate man was engaged on board a vessel lying in the north quay of the London Docks, when he by some means lost his equilibrium, fell down the hold, a distance of 20 feet. He was raised up by two of his com panions, who found that he was insensible, and bleeding from a severe scalp wound. He had also sustained a frac ture of the skull and other injuries. He was removed on a cradle to the accident ward of the London Hospital,where he was seen by Mr. Glynn, the house surgeon, but the poor fellow expired shortly after his admission. THE VOLUNTEERS.—We understand that a de putation waited upon Sir George Lewis at the War-office yesterday for the purpose of representing the advantages of a Royal Commission to inquire into the present state of the Volunteer force, and that her Majesty's Government have consented to issue a commission for that purpose. The deputation was the result of a resolution unanimously agreed to at a meeting of members of both Houses of Par liament, held on Tuesday last in one of the committee rooms of the House of Commons, and consisted of the fol lowing gentlemen :—Ths Duke of Marlborough, the Earl of Shaftesbury, the Earl of Chichester, the Earl of Ducie, Lord Overstone, Lord Eversley, Lord Henniker, M.P., Mr. A. Black, M.P., Mr. A. Mills, M.P., Mr. G. W. Hope, M.P., Mr. Phillips, M.P., the Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P., Mr. Gregson, M.P., Mr. Bass, M.P., Mr. A. W. Kinglake, M.P., and Mr. Deedes, M.P. Lord Ellenborough was pre vented by illness from being present at the interview. STEAMSHIP BUILDING ON THE CLYDE.—Messrs. C. Connell and Co., of the Overnewton Shipbuilding Yard, have just launched an iron steamer for the Queensland Go vernment. The steamer, which has been named the Bris bane, after the capital of the colony, is being engined by Messrs. A. and J. Inglis, Whitehall Foundry. Messrs. Connell have contracts remaining on hand to the extent of from £30,000 to £40,000. Messrs. W. Denny and Brothers, of Dumbarton, have completed six models of steamers, which they propose to show in the International Exhibi tion. The principal model in the collection refers to the Hibernian, one of the Montreal ()aeon Steamship Company's fleet; this model is upwards of six feet in length, and is so constructed as to show, on one side, the exterior of the hull, and, on the other, the interior above the main deck. The Rona, built by Messrs. W. Denny and Brothers for Messrs. Jardine, Mathieson, and Co., has made a satisfactory trial trip, having "run the lights," a distance of 13a knots, one way in 65i minutes, and back in 63 minutes. The Rona, which will leave in a few days for China, is of the following dimensions : Length, 230 ft. ; beam, 33ft. ; depth to spar deck, 21ft. bin. ; burden, 1,220 tons old measurement. At the trial trip her draught of water was 7ft. bin. She has a pair of diagonal engines, the diameter of the cylinders being 46in., the stroke of the piston 9ft., and the working pressure 351 b. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.—The will of Major- General Sir Thomas Harte Franks, K.C.8., formerly of Lower Brook-street, who died at his late residence, Ibstone House, Oxford, on the sth of February last, at the age of fifty-five, was proved in London by his relict, Lady Harte Franks, sole executrix, It is very brief, was executed in 1859, and contains but two bequests—one an annuity of £lOO to his sister, Miss Margaret Franks, of Mallow Castle, Ireland, and the other the disposition of the residue of the personal, together with the whole of the real, estates to his relict, absolutely. The major-general distinguished him self in India, and particularly during the recent era of the frightful massacre in that country. He held the colonelcy of the 10th Foot at the time of his decease. The will of the late Mr. William Hammond, of Russell-square, was proved in London under £250,000 personalty. The attesting witnesses to the will are L. Mieville and Frederic Louis Mie ville, both of Switzerland, and it was executed as far back as 1842, the executors appointed being his two sons, Messrs. Wm. Amedee Hammond and Geo. Dighton Hammond. The testator, who appears to have realised a large fortune as a stockbroker, has left it entirely amongst his family, as fol lows :—To his brother, Mr. George Hammond, the sum of £lO,OOO, and to each of his two sisters, £5,000. To his eldest son he has bequeathed his library and other effects, and the residue of his entire property is left equally be tween his two sons. The will is concise and very clearly expressed. The following m unificent bequests by the will of the late 11Ir. Wm. Block were made to the undermentioned charitable institutions : —The London Fever Hospital, St. Mink's Hospital, London Female Penitentiary, Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Chest, City of London Hospital for Diseases of the Chest, Royal London Ophthal mic Hospital, Cancer Hospital, Royal Free Hospital, Go vernesses' Benevolent Institution, Metropolitan Free Hos pital, to each £5OO. Two sums of £l,OOO for the endow ment of the Church of St. James, Muswell hill, near testa tor's residence, and a new church at Courch End, Hornsey. The will is dated March, 1861. A liberal provision is made for the testator's widow, and there are legacies to his four brothers, who are also made residuary legatees. The per sonalty was sworn under 4120,000.-111ustrated London News. pierced with holes, into which percussion caps had been inserted, was thrown at them from behind. A loud explosion ensued; the intended victim and Dr. Cesari fortunateiy received Ito hurt, but M. Bacca rani was wounded in the heel. The Monitore adds that the perpetrator of the deed has been discovered and arrested. M. Baccarani's wound is not:dange- TOUS. PRUSSIA. "In Prussia," says the Nerd," the electoral cir cular of the Minister of the Interior, Al, de Jagow, is warmly discussed in the press and in the pre- paratory meetings of the electors. It is found, and not without reason, that M. de Jagow, speaks as a functionary, and not as a statesman, and the feudal journal has repeatedly published articles quite simi lar to the programme to which he has attached his name. The effect which his unfortunate circular will produce upon the electors may already be judged of; it will convert no one to the political faith of the Minister, but will cause all shades of sincerely liberal opinions to close their ranks, and to prove, by the choice of serious and capable men, how unjust the accusation was, which the new Minister threw in the face of the late Chamber, of its being poor ins capacity and poltical intelligence, and of con spiring against monarchical institutions." A Berlin letter of the 26th says : " The King paid another rather long visit to day to M. d'Auerswald. The ex-Minister is a friend of infancy of the King, and it may be so believed that he does not cease to exercise a cer tain influence over his Majesty. Others think that the King accords at this moment such a confidence to M. de Roon, Marshal Wrangel, and General Manteuffel, that the councils of the late Minister produce little effect. Count de Berns torff is about to address to the representatives of Prussia abroad a circular describing the character of the /ate Ministerial crisis. The elec tion of the first degree will take place at the beginning of April, immediately after Easter. The ex-Minister of Justice M. de Bernath, will, it is said, be named superior president of the province of Posen, in the place of M. de Bonin, who will be transferred to Brandeburg. Personal misunder standings between M. de Bonin and the Archbishop of Posen appears to have in some measure contri buted to the hostility which the Catholic clergy manifest towards the Government. The hereditary Prince will leave to -morrow for Carlsruhe, from where he will proceed next week to Cologne to receive his wife on her arrival from England. The Dowager Queen has gone to Dresden, where she intends remaining some time. The Prince de la Tour d'Auvergne, French Ambassador to Berlin, will, it is said, leave next week for Paris, to make a rather long stay" The Stern-Zoitung, under date of the 26th inst., publishes the following notification :—" The public journals for some days past have been publishing various reports relative to pretended financial opera tions commenced or projected by the Minister of Finances. We shall not undertake to refute, one by one, every report circulated in this respect ; but we wish to state, once for all, that these reports are devoid of foundation." ARRIVAL OF THE CAPE MALL. PLYMOUTH, SATURDAY, 10 A.M. The Royal Mail steamship Cambrian, Commander Strutt, from the Cape of Good Hope, St. Helena, and Ascension, has arrived in the Sound. Her dates are,—Table Bay, February 22 ; St. Helena, March 3; and Ascension, March 7. All is quiet at the Cape. The railroad to Eerste River, 24 miles in length, was opened on the 14th of February. The Dane arrived on the 15th of February; the Sir James Duke, with the Red Sea cable, February the 11th ; the Jinkee, for China, January the 30th. The Cambrian brings the usual cargo. The Bishop of St. Helena is among the passengers.

TRE LOSS OF THE CHINA. The official report of the inquiry into the cireern" stances attending the stranding of the ship China on the Kish Bank, and her subsequent abandonmen t on the 24th of February last, has been made to the Board of Trade. After stating the circumstance s the report states that the casualty of the stranding of this ship was owing to the default of the captain, and to his neglect in not adopting the proper mea sures within his reach for her safety. Firstly, the lead was not called into play to the extent the circumstances required, there having been no cast of it taken from 12 o'clock on Sunday night till after the striking of the ship on the follow' ing day. Secondly, the ship's journal was n (4 kept in such a manner that proper calculation as to her position by dead reckoning could be ascertained as well as it might otherwis e have been. Thirdly, before making the unknown land on the forenoon of the 24th, pilot boats hove in sight, which might have been attracted by the China, and in that case her doubtful position would have been ascertained, and perhaps in time t° save her. The master, however, did not avail him self of the opportunity thus afforded of trying to clear up the doubt as to his position, which he must naturally have felt after having been upwards of 3g hours at the mercy of calms and currents. Fourthly, the first and second mates, being the officers in charge of the watches, were never per' sonally consulted by the master as to the position of the ship with or without the chart or sailing directions, nor were they offered access to the char t or sailing directions, nor (save on one occasion il l the case of the second mate) were their opinion s asked by the master ; whereas, had they aecess t ° the charts and sailing directions, and known o f the existence of the sets and currents laid down there in ' they would have been better enabled, by means i proper soundings, to observe what the ship sc e doing, and to judge of her whereabouts. With re' spect to the question of abandonment—passing 11 the legal points put for ward in the master's stat e ". ment as net being, in my mind, relevant to t h y question—l consider that here, also, blame is att ri ; butable to the master. A panic having seized crew, he too readily acquiesced, and too readily abandoned his ship, and did not subsequent l i o make a single effort to rejoin her on the pilot 0 .. doing. Having thus expressed at lar g e m y o p inie l of the captain's culpability , I be g to sub (says the commander) to favourable considerati on j partial extenuation of his conduct, his undenia ble sobriety, and his unceasing personal a oje t l f throughout. He was continually on deck, ne /e g resigning hrf aeesifeeble ebebrrl eatback, obwku:which ni h ecoi i hn s rc command, srifipcb auecrifmeiesparing tgta ahninnic himself nso o sen r fhl efti rthpp.ai personally, under s bl n n o e g d n i enb a r h e l g l hyst the ic further n 3tr h i ho s: It : O r ; during the very long period he has been acting bo master. The very high testimonials also which o f has adduced, to ge th er with the facts of his " e l being a native of this country, and chiefly engeg o i in trade elsewhere, I feel in justice bound t 0 4 • before your lordships in his behalf. 1 cannot euto elude my report without particularly adverting so the evidence given in the course of this inquiry' a g bearing directly on the stranding of the Chine4a, to the importance of having pilot-boats furn:.ht with danger signals, the timely use of wh ich in prevent prevent vessels in the perilous position of the Ci'aiso before she struck from meeting her fate, and t he as to the imperative necessity , with a v iew t ? more safe navigation of the port of Duh lll3 _',a having a lightship with a fog bell on t he southirof of the Coddling Bank, n ear the Kish.
