A warrant' officer, writing home, says the Hydra has been condemned as " Old and rotten," and will return to England ;. while another correspondent states that she is under orders to go from Halifax to Bermuda to receive the Admiral, Sir Alexander Milne, K. C. 8., who is about to inspect the ships at the various divisions of the North American and West India 4D. STAMPED, SD. thought so oppressive, appears too liberal, we should have hailed with joy the revival of the laws of Sep tember. Lastly, if all that wag to be refused, we should at least ask for a truly indispensable mitiga tion of the present legislation—namely, a modifica tion of Art. 32 of the decree of the 17th of February. That article Oec'arcs the absolute suppression of any journal that has undergone two condemnations in the course of two years. An important and esteemed journal, the Gironde of Bordeaux, was condemned to a fine of 50f. for some irregularity, and afterwards to another of 500 f. for some slight infringement of the law. In the latter case the article. was a letter discussing the qualities of Bor deaux wines. The total of these two condemnations was only 550 f., but their inevitable consequence, if the decree of 1852 be carried out, is the suppression of the journal. It appears to us impossible, even if the administrative jurisdiction established by the decree of 1852 be maintained, that the Government should not see the justice and necessity of modify ing an article attended with such consequences." stations. The Rhadamanthus steam-vessel, Master-Com manding Sturdee, left Woolwich yesterday with a cargo of boilers, machinery, &c., for the Black Prince, iron-cased steam-vessel, now building by Messrs. Napier, of Glasgow. Each of the ten boilers with which she will be fitted weighs 23 tons, and they have been manufactured with a due regard to the utmost strength of metal and excel lence of workmanship. The Rhadamanthus also embarked 50 supernumerary lads from the Fisgard flag-ship, which she will convey to Plymouth for service on board vessels now in commission. The workmen at the steam factory department, Woolwich, are now employed until 11 o'clock nightly, in consequence of the demand exiting for the plates and other materials required for the completion of the iron-cased steam-vessel Wa=rier, now building at Bow-creek, by the Thames Iron Works Company.

Yesterday a meeting of the General Committee for the relief of the suffering Christians in Syria was held at the Caledonian Hotel, Adelphi, for the purpose of receiving a report from the executive committee respecting their operations, and the ap plication of the fund placed at their disposal. There was but a small delkindance of members. On the motion of Sir Moses Montefiore, Lord Stanley, MY., was called to the chair. - - Mr. C. R. EDMONDS, the secretary, read a letter from Lord Stratford de Redcliffe to the president explaining that he was prevented from attending by indisposition, and enclosing a communication from Lord John Russell announcing a subscription of £5,000 from the Government in aid of the fund. The letter from Lord John Russell, which was ad dressed to Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, said :—" I have the honour to acquaint your lordship that her Majesty's Government, taking into consideration the accounts that have reached them of the severe distress in which the late troubles in Syria have involved the Christian population, have agreed to place 'at the disposal of your lordship, as chairman of the general committee of the Syrian Fund, the sum of £5,000, and I have no doubt that Parliament will approve their decision in this respect under the special circumstances that have led to its being adopted." The report of the executive committee was then read. It stated that a sum of £23,000 had been subscribed towards the fund, of which £15,000 had been transmitted to Beyrout for the relief of the Syrian sufferers, and £2,500 invested in the Three per Cents. as a reserved fund. It also detailed the measures that had been taken to raise subscriptions and donations of blankets, &c., throughout the country; stated that Lord John Russell had given the committee the free use of the Foreign-office telegraph to Constantinople, and had given two donations of £5O each to the funds; and concluded with mentioning the subscription of £5,000 by her Majesty's Government—a circumstance which had only come to the knowledge of the committee that morning. The CHAIRMAN said it was evident that great activity had been shown by the committee, and it was worthy of notice that not a single complaint had been heard from any quarter of partiality or neglect of duty on the part of those charged with the distribution of the funds. Sir M. MONTEFIORE moved that the report be received and adopted, and that steps should be taken, by the formation of sub-committees, to raise subscriptions in every town in the kingdom. The motion was seconded by Colonel WALKER end agreed to. Dr. HODGSON moved a resolution containing a vote of thanks to the Queen, the Prince Consort, and the Duchess of Kent for the interest they had taken in the fund and the liberal contributions they had made. The resolution was seconded by Mr. Alderman SALOMONS, M.P., end agreed to. Mr. BALL moved a resolution, expressive of the satisfaction of the meeting at the liberal donation o; £5,000 paid by the Government, which was seconded by Major SCOTT PHILLIPS, and agreed to. The Rev. J. WADDINGTON proposed a vote of thanks to Lord John Russell for his contribution of £lOO towards the funds, and for the facilities he had invariably afforded the committee in commu nicating with Syria. Sir C. EARDLEY seconded the motion, and ob served that no public subscription had ever been administered with greater fairness and impartiality than the present. The committee were perfectly satisfied that all the money sent from England had been applied in the manner intended by the donors, and he believed the percentage of expense would be smaller than had ever been experienced in any previous subscription. The only . question was whether the fund would not prove insufficient for the end in view. Contributions had no doubt been sent from America, Germany, and other quarters, but still the amount of destitution was so great that they could not help being anxious on that point. The number of persons relieved was nearer 30,000 than 20,000 per day, and he hoped the effect of the day's meeting would be to freshen the energies of all in adding to the fund. The resolution was agreed to. A resolution was next moved by Dr. HODGKINS, acknowledging the assistance received from foreign countries, and the mover specified particularly those received from French Protestants and from Den mark. Sir C. EARDLEY explained that the reason why the French Protestants had sent their subscriptions through the British Committee was that they knew the fund would through that channel be distributed without any reference whatever to distinction of sects. The resolution was agreed to, as was also a vote of thanks to the chairman. Lord STANLEY, in acknowledging the vote of thanks, expressed a hops that when the accounts were made up care would be taken to mark off how much had been applied to charitable purposes and how much had gone for expenses. He observed that no fewer than 27,000 persons had been in the receipt of aid, but he had not heard it stated whether any attempt had been made to give em ployment as well as relief. Some persons might consider the sum raised a small one, but it should be borne in mind- that we were not in any way responsible for the disasters that had occurred in Syria, and there were many who in such circum stances might consider that claims at home had a prior claim upon them. The proceedings then terminated. IRELAND. DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY MORNING LETTER FROM TEE POPE TO DR. MAC HALE. The Ultramontane morning journals publish the following translation of a letter from the Pope, in reply to an epistle from Dr. Mac Hale, " enclosing a sum of £l,OOO, making a total of £3,000 contri buted to the Papal fund by the Archdiocese of Tuam" : " Venerable Brother,—After the receipt of the £2,000 which you sent us in the name of your clergy and faithful people, we are now in receipt of £l,OOO more in the name of the same clergy and people, accompanied with your most chttiful rm./ affectionate letter of the 28th of October, o..tabiting in the clearest point of view your anxious solicitude as well as that of thc ihlthful, to relieve the neces sities of the Holy S ee.

TBE The ceremony of decorating two soldiers with a silver medal, which, together with a gratuity of 45 each, had been conferred on them by command 01 the Duke of Cambridge for long and meritorious' service, took place on the general parade -ground at Chatham barracks yesterday, at a full parade of the officers and troops composing the first battalion of infantry. The officers and men of the several regi ments composing the battalion having been drawn up in order, the two men, Private John M'Cowen, 77th Regiment, and John Taylor, an orderly belong ing to the Army Hospital Corps, were called to the front, when the medals were presented to each of them in presence of the whole of the troops by Col. Jervis, who expressed the gratification he experi enced in performing so pleasing a duty. M'Cowen has been in the service upwards Private of 20 years, during the whole of which p e riod his character h a s been exceedingly good; he is also decorated with the Crimean medal, the 77th having borne a con spicuous part in the Crimean campaign. Taylor has served a period of nearly 21 years, and was formerly in the 16th and 58th , in b o th of which his character was always very good' The money gratuity for each of the men w ill be deposited in the regimental savings-bank an d on their quitting the service the , amount, w i t h interest, will be handed to them.

The usual assembling for the distribu tion of prizes will take place on Tuesday, the 18th inst., which the Duke of Cambridge, in his capacity of President of the Council of Education, has con sented to preside over and also to inspect the com pany under arms. The two new wings, situated at the extreme angles of the building, are prpgress ing towards completion, and are expected to be ready for the reception of the cadets, on the re sumption of their duties after the Midsummer vacation, when each student will be afforded the long-desired advantage of a separa te sleeping room, and the inconvenience now experienced in the want of appropriate class and lecture rooms will be effectually remedied. The architectural appearance of the exterior will also be considerably improved. -....•••••... As a singular pendant to the melancholy affair of M. Poinsot, the Piedinontese journals mention that, in a railway carriage on the line from Twin to Genoa, a man was a few days ago found dead from a pistol shot, but whe ther fired by himself or by a murderer is not known. None of the passengers by the train had heard the report.

FARMER and ROGERS, 171, 173, 17k, REGENT-STREET, W. NORTH 12,41''. (From the Times' correspondent.) GENOA, DEC. 10. I came to this place to attend the anniversary of the expulsion of the Austrians from Genoa, on the 10th of December, 1746, a festival known among the common people of the country as Balilla-day, from the name of the young popular hero, the mason's boy, or whatever else was his trade, who threw the first stone at the German invader, thereby giving the signal, for , ,,that outburst of genuine Italian passion which reproduced the achievements of the Sicilian Vespers, unstained by the atrocities of those ancient and yet better known massacres. The centenary celebration of that ever memo rable event, on the 10th of December, 1846, after the Sardinian Government, under the influence of its powerful Austrian ally, had long hushed up the very recollection and forbidden even the remotest allusion to it ; the revival of that tradition, so glo rious in Genoese annals, at a time when Charles Albert was coquetting with the newly-spreading idea of Italian nationality, at a time in which a young benevolent Pontiff, and most other Italian Sovereigns, were showing some disposition to com promise with and encourage that idea, was one of the boldest steps marking the progress of Italy to wards her emancipation. On that day, and that year, the Genoese, always an excitable people, raised the first cry, " Out with the foreigner !" The cry was caught up by Romagna and Tuscany ; a thousand bonfires gleamed in the night along the crest and on all the ridges of the Apennines; and a thrill of almost frantic hope ran through the veins of the crushed Lombards and Venetians. Austria stormed, and her despotic allies protested. But Charles Albert owed his overbearing neighbour more than one grudge ; the breach widened between the two Powers, bordering on one another on the Ticino ; displeasure heightened into hostility, and led to that unequal struggle in which the Savoyard Monarch succumbed, but by his noble death re deemed no less his country than his name, and prepared the ground for the elevation of his race. Since that time Balilla's day has invariably been honoured in Genoa, and in days of especial patriotic excitement, as on the eve of the new Lombard war of 1859, it was made the occasion of noisy popular demonstrations. This year it will be made the pre text for a Garibaldian movement. We bad here yesterday and the day before no less than 3,800 red-shirted Reduci, returning heroes just landed from Naples. A word was circulated among them and among the people that on this day loud paeans should resound in honour of their adven turous leader. Already, on Saturday evening, the performance in two or three of the Genoa theatres came to naught in compliance with the demands of these disbanded volunteers, who, renewing here the exploits by which they had distinguished them selves at Naples, again and again, and even 10 and 12 times, called for the Garibaldi hymn. In the course of yesterday, last night, and even this morn ing, heavy trains, laden with hundreds of these patriot warriors, were, by the prudent and provi dential Government authorities, sent into the in land provinces of Lombardy and /Emilia to which they belonged, and great was the riot and racket with which these home-bound worthies filled the railway station and its approaches. The streets of Genoa are, however, still swarming with scarlet clad, more or less dingy and tattered, man. We are curious to see to what extent they are still bent on mischief, and to what extent they will be allowed to perpetrate it. _ _ _ Already, early in the morning, I read, stuck up at every street-corner, the following pithy inscrip- tion "W. Garibaldi ! W. I Vincitori di Calatifimi ! W. Gli eroi del Volturno !* " Genoese ! This day brings round the annivea• sary of the 10th of December, 1746; it is a day sacred to every Italian heart: The Genoese will not fail to attend the ceremony at the sanctuary of Oregina. The meeting is appointed at 2 o'clock in the Piazza dell' Acquaverde. Let this year our cry be Rome and Venice!' " Another inEcription by Barilli, going the round of the halfpenny papers, thus closes : " Italians ! Celebrate this glorious day with your oath shortly to engrave its remembrance on the marbles of the Capitol of Rome, your city !" There is certainly no harm in these volunteers and the Genoese people giving vent to their admiration for Garibaldi and the Garibaldians, or even utter ance to their warm wishes that Rome and Venice may soon be made to share with their sister cities the blessings of national freedom and independence. But the singing of Garibaldi's hymn does not imply the necessity of hissing the King's anthem, as was repeatedly done at Naples, or of preventing the performance of any other musical piece. " This hymn," says a Neapolitan correspondence, "is here repeated 15 and even 20 times in one evening, and every time hailed with storms of rapturous applause. The affair may in the long run become rather monotonous and tedious ; but what if it so pleases the Neapolitan people r What, in deed P one might answer ; but the question is whether those who bawl the loudest for the hymn in question are really the Neapolitan people, and if these latter are not, on the contrary, greatly an noyed by the noise of a few mischief-makers, bent on spoiling their ordinary amusement. Perhaps these were the considerations which induced the Lieutenancy and the Director of the Police, Silvio Spaventa, to close the theatre in which these dis orders were carried on with the most outrageous recklessness; but, unfortunately, the Government and the police reckoned on the firm behaviour of the troops, and we are now informed that a captain of infantry of the line winked at the forcibly open ing the theatre, and his troops fraternized with the people. Surely a man must be a very staunch Garibaldian indeed to deny that this is not as it should be ? Again I repeat there is no harm in crying loudly for the speedy deliverance of Rome and Venetia. But the enemies of public order, here as well as at Naples, are perfectly aware of the rupture between Garibaldi—who would have gone to war with the French for Rome, and with the Austrians for Venice, long before he had settled his differences with the Bourbon at Capua and Gaeta and Cavour, who still hopes for the liberation of those cities and provinces by peaceful means, and who at all events, thinks that the country should not voluntarily venture on such gigantic wars as must ensue before it has fully organised and armed itself for (them. But, " Garibaldi, Rome, and Venice" make a capital party-cry; and, although it is not likely the country will ever agree in deposing Count Cavour in order to substitute for him at the head of the Government, agreeably to the suggestion in Garibaldi's last proclamation, the " far preferable" Cattaneo, still it is just possible that this cry may be used to create disturbances here and there in the Northern to less than in the * The mark " W." in Italy is used by way of a sign, instead of Viva, Evviva--Hurrak I Southern provinces, or at - least so to influence the forthcoming elections as to return a new Chamber which may render the position of the present Cabinet unter able. Whatever may happen, however, I apprehend no very serious outbreak at Genoa from to-day's per formance. Some of the ultra-liberals in this city are sufficiently wrong headed and perverse ; and no other Italian town would tolerate the crazy Mazzinian organ, 11 Unita Italiana, which in fact circulates nowhere else than here ; but the Genoese, taken in the mass, are a thrifty, laborious people; they know that their trade has just doubled within the last ten years ; and their deep-rooted, inextin guishable antipathy to the Piedmontese which made them fret against the hard lot which annexed their republic to the Sardinian Monarchy, and which, so far as national prejudice is concerned, is n truth as bad as ever, is however greatly soothed by their late conjunction with Lombardy and the /Emilia, a consummation that has made their harbour the great emporium of all Northern Italian commerce, and will further increase their prosperity if a rail way line is ever constructed across the Gothard or Luckmanier to put them into communication with the South of Germany. All this the Genoese know, and they tcre far more anxious about the enlargement and improvement of their port, the construction of _wharfs, and piers, and jetties, which may put them on a par with other civilised harbours (for the backwardness of which works they surely have only themselves to blame), than for the triumph of a party which would only unseat Cavour to raise such men as Bertani, Crispi, or Cattaneo to power. _ _ The ceremony of to-day, in spite of all sinister an- ticipations, will I think Piss over as quietly as ever. The municipal and Government authorities will preceed to the sanctuary or church of Oregina, a plain commonplace building perched on the summit of one of the brown bleak hills encompassing Genoa, with a hard, stony, winding path to it, flanked with the 15 stations of the Via Cruets ; there will be High Mass, and Low Mass in the morning, the Te Deum, the Tantum ergo, the benediction in the afternoon, and all the other dumb-shows with which the Roman Church indiscriminately celebrates all her glad solemnities ; there will be no speech, no commemorative oration ; and at the utmost the National Guards, the remaining Garibaldians, and the populace will shout themselves hoarse on their way to church and back, or at the theatre, roaring for the Garibaldi hymn, but that will be all. I shall, however, leave this letter open to chroni cle any incident which, contrary to my expectation, may disturb the even tenour of the day. MONDAY, 4 O'CLOCK, P.M. My surmises were correct. Some time after two o'clock straggling crowds, with a stray banner here and there, were seen moving towards the place of the rendezvous, under my hotel windows, in Green. water-square (Piazza Acquaverde). The day was lovely; people were seated, as usual here, bare headed and in light clothing in the open air. Pre sently the crowd in a mass, without any order of procession, took their road leisurely towards the hilly and fatiguing ascent leading to the Oregina Church, where sensible people did not much care to follow them. There can now be no doubt as to the festival turning out a very quiet and rather dull affair. I am told that every idea of a demonstration was abandoned from the time it was known the Gari baldians, or most of them, were going, and these latter were induced to hasten their departure, nol so mnch by orders from Government as by dissen sions which broke out among them. FRANCE. ,i' (From the Paris Correspondent of the Times.) If public rumour can be trusted, M. de Persigny has just acted in a manner which will not fail to be warmly approved by those whose approval is worth having, and condemned by those whose condemna tion is sometimes praise. M. de Kersaint, ono of the deputies wlao represented in the Legislative Corps the department of the Puy de Dome, died some short time since. The person whs aspired to replace him is M. Chatelus, who, besides his own merits, enjoys the distinction, enviable or unen viable, as the case may be, of being the intimate friend of M. de Moray, and with such patronage —which, as is boastfully declared, pulverizes all other—the aspirant to M. de Kersaint's vacant seat could not entertain a single doubt of success. It was necessary to apply, but, as was thought, only as a simple matter of form, for the sanction of the Minister of the Interior to bring forward M. Chatelus as the candidate of the Government, or, to use the official argot, le candidat de ? Administration. As little difficulty was anticipated in this quarter as ever was found with his predecessor. To the astonishment and disgust of the introducer of M. Chatelus, M. de Persigny is said to have unhesi tatingly and firmly refused his sanction to M. de Morny's candidate being put forward as that of the Administration. He doubtless gave his reasons for that refusal, and these reasons were so conclusive that he declared (so the story runs) that, rather than sanction a thing of the kind he would resign. M. Chatelus will, therefore, have to stand on his own merits and those of M. de Morny. The resistance of M. de Persigny—always sup posing the rumour I speak of to be correct—is said to redound to his credit. It encourages the hope that he will persist, and, so far as in him lies, neutralise the influence of a coterie which has done much injury to the Government. M. de Morny may be wronged, but he is looked upon as the chief of a certain coterie (popularly known by a more expressive name) of speculators who have their hand in everything going, and who turn the immense influence of their patron to their common purposes. The Grande Centrale, the coal mines and ironworks of Aubin, the coal mines of Carmaux, the railroads, &c., tes tify to the skill and boldness of the President of the Legislative Corps. That a man like M. de Persigny7should be distasteful to this coterie, who we are told can do what they please, is not sur prising ; and he may be certain that no intrigue will be left untried against him. The picture drawn by M. de Persigny in his last circular of the state of the press in England is con sidered by the Debats as far too favourable ; and the writer, M. Prevost-Paradol, points to the re ports published in the Irish journals of the late repeal meeting in Dublin as instances of the ex traordinary latitude allowed by the English Go vernment to the most objectionable attacks on all that in France the public is accustomed to consider sacred. The spectacle of The O'Donoghue endea vouring to ape O'Connell might, of course, the writer observes, be passed over as unworthy of serious notice ; but what is to be said of the appeal to the sword of Marshal M'Mahon, and the hope expressed that French troops may one day land, on the Irish coast ? The writer disclaims any wish to see such a programme carried out, and affirms that he only mentions the matter for the purpose of proving that the press in Great Britain does not always respect the State, and that if it has merited an unlimited liberty it has arrived at that great privilege not by any wonderful amount of pru dence. The article then says:— " Is not the Count, then, mistaken as to the pre sent condition of the press in England ? He says that in that country there is complete liberty for whatever is an advantage, or not dangerous, to the State, and negation of all liberty of attacking the State. If M. de Persigny bas the curiosity to peruse the democratical and Socialist journals of England, he will see, on the Queen, on the House of Lords, on the aristocracy, on the Parliament, and on property, theories and language which surpass in folly and violence anything of the kind ever published in France. There is complete liberty, or rather licence for these miserable pro ductions ; they have no other enemy than the public indifference. We ourselves received for some time a journal well calculated to wound all the sentiments of religious Eng land :7 it was called the Atheist , and once every week it endeavoured to prove that there i s no God. It is dead, but from natural causes no doubt, for we have never heard of any prosecution againstit:" The writer explains what in his opinion might be accorded to the press in France at the present time :—" We should have desired for the French press (still regarded with suspicion by the country, we are free to confess) a law of some kind, to'place it under the exclusive control of the courts ofj astice, and definitively remove it from that of the Admi nistration. If the law of 1819, which was formerly CATTLE SHOW WEEK II ! R OYAL ALHAMBRA PALACE MUSIC HALL, LEICESTER SQUARE. Proprietor. MR. E. T. SMITH Immense Success, visited by 6,000 persons Nightly. THIS EVENING, at seven o'clock precisely. The Musical Direction is confided to Mr. J. H. Tully, the popular con ductor at the Theatre-Royal, Drury Lane. The name of that gentleman is alone a guarantee for the orchestral department: In the Refreshment Department a prospectus is needless, when it is stated that it will be under the superintendence of Mr. James Ellis, original proprietor of Cremorne Gardens, and of the Adelaide Gallery, Strand. Mr. Ellis may fairly lay claim to having given rise and impetus to all the popular music halls and salons of amusement which now form so conspicuous and leading an element of public appre ciation. Mr. Smith feels it scarcely necessary to add, that he has gone to enormous expense in making the Palace of the Alhambra a giant specimen of good taste and of publ , c com fort. The whole of the building has been altered, and the designs carried out under the superintendence of Mr. William Beverley, of her Majesty's Theatre, and althe Theatre Royal, Drury-lane. The Proscenium and Paintings in the Dome have been executed by the celebrated artists, Messrs. Denson and Sons. The decorations by Mr. Hurwitz, of Southampton street, Strand.
