In its pages facts of paramount utility are brought together, wholly divested of tne delusions and incon sistencies so largely introduced into certain quasi medical publications given to the world gratis, under the t,ruise of philanthropy, or as "acts of gratitude," by pretended clergy men and others, whose tamperings with the constitution are frequently followed by Balm vouaequeucest PARAGUAY AND HER PRESIDENT. The Asuncion correspondent of the .New pork herald, under date March 19th, bears testimony to the progress making by Paraguay, and the cha racter of the Government of President Lopez, which will be read with interest in this country, where accurate information on both points is so desirable. " This republic," says the writer, " the best populated and best governed of all South American republics, offers many advantages to mechanics, merchants, and speculators. Cotton, tobacco, and sugar, the staples of the country, offer a large field for speculation, as they yet want a great deal of improvement, easily done by intelli gent and enterprising men, who are much wanted here ; but the right sort of men are-slow in coming, owing to reports derogatory to this country and its Government, spread by persons ill-disposed, having been foiled in humbugging the simple people here, who are well guarded by a wise and strong Govern ment, represented in the person of President Lopez, the best head south of the equator. All who take an interest in this country, and will inquire of the Hon. J. S. Pendleton, , formerly our chargé d'affaires here, or the Hon. Judge Bowlin, or his secretary, Mr. S. Ward, or any of the officers who came with the Paraguay expedition, or Capt. Page, so well known here, will find my statement correct. Nowhere in South America is the Government so well respected and obeyed as here ; nowhere are life and property more secure. Paraguay is the only one of the South American republics which achieved her independence without bloodshed, and the subsequent iron rule of Francia kept down the turbulent, and saved the country from those ter rible intestine wars which distracted the lower provinces for forty years, and only ended now by the successful mediation of General Lopez. Since the beginning of the actual Government a new era has opened for this country, which has assumed its befitting rank among the independent nations of the world. Lopez found nothing to act upon when he took the Presidential chair, only eighteen years ago---neither means nor men. He had to create both. Relations with foreign powers were first opened by him ; foreign commerce and trade, which were prostrated under Francia, were protected and encouraged ; railroads, steamboats, arsenals, foundries, &c., the best south of Rio, and the best disciplined and best equipped army, are his work—at the same time working against fearful odds of jealous and turbulent neighbours and dubious friends. Paraguay, like the re te st of the South American republics, has been the theatre where European diplomatists make their debut, and, for the sake of trying their strength and making themselves a name, never leave these coun tries without having 'done some mischief, either embroiling them with theirrespective governments, or sowing the seeds of future discord." This ac count of the progress and and present prosperity of Paraguay is confirmed by all the latest advices from that country. Building operations are pro ceeding actively at Asuncion, and there is a wide field for enterprise in the manufacture of bricks. A. new theatre, on a large scale, is in course of erec tion ; also extensive buildings in connection with the naval dockyards and foundries. Captain Page, mentioned in the extract, is the commander of the exploring expedition sent out from the United States ; he has ascended the Vermejo to Oran, 300 miles from its mouth, thus affording further demon stration of the facilities which exist for distributing the manufactures of Europe throughout Paraguay, and sending the tobacco, cotton, hides, wool, and other produce of the country down to the great fluvial highway of the Piatine region in return. The statement that Canstatt, the alleged British subject, convicted of complicity in a conspiracy to assassinate thwPresident and his family, and con demned to death, had been pardoned and liberated, is confirmed. He left Asuncion on the 17th of January, is the Paraguayan steamer Jessni, for Monte Video, of which city he is a native, having only claimed to be a British subject when he en gaged in the plot against President Lopez. This is so well established that it is believed there is nothi6g now to prevent a speedy and amicable settlement of the difference which the claim pre ferred by Mr. Consul Henderson, on behalf of Canstatt, had created between England and Para guay. THE .TAPAYBSE AMBASSADORS AT A BALL. Last evening, at a ball given by the Secretary of State, the Japanese ambassadors appeared un officially, for the first time, in public. The in terest felt on this occasion was so great that of the numerous guests invited hardly a single one failed to be present. The saloons of General Cass were fully crowded at an early hour, 500 or 600 persons assembling before nine o'clock. The ambassadors did not leave Willard's Hotel until 10. On reach ing General Cass's residence they were conducted by Captain Dupont and other gentlemen, who ac companied them through the various rooms of re ception, and finally seated at a point most conve nient for approach by those who were to be pre sented to them. Their neighbourhood was at once invaded by numberless candidates for introduction, mostly ladies, all of whom were received with the grace and elegance of manner inseparable from the Japanese. The party visiting the Secretary of State was composed of three Princes, and the five officers next in rank, and the two interpreters. For nearly an hour these 10 gentlemen sustained unflinchingly the unaverted gaze of as many scores of people as could draw dear to them. Their self possession then, as it always is, was marvellous. The haughtiest stare, with intensest eyeglass con centration, could neither move them to embarrass ment nor rouse them to the least defiant glance in return. Directly personal remarks, not always uttered, I am afraid, in the best taste, and some times unworthy the fair lips whence they pro ceeded, were listened to by those who perfectly understood with no sign of discomposure, except perhaps a slight compression of the mouth, show ing that insensibility was no cause of their immov able calmness. Towards 11 o'clock the ambassa dors rose, and were again led through the apart ments, pausing before a refection table, the details of which no interpreter was needed to explain to them. The number of guests had now greatly increased. There were present the members of the Cabinet, the Vice-President, and Speaker Pen nington, a few members of Congress, many officers of the army and navy, and a very full representa tion of foreign legations. The number of ladies seemed greater than of gentlemen. The least unwary step enculphed one in surging waies of muslin, silk, and those other kindred dangers which evade precise designation. Mrs. Douglas, Miss Lane, Mrs. G an Mrs. Slidell, were the various central Orbs, alluring to themselves countless satel lites, seeking from the reflections of fashionable warmth and social light. On their way along the drawing-rooms, the Japanese caught sight of Com modore Tatnall, who brought them in the Powha tan from Japan to Panama, and whom they instantly surrounded with every grateful expression of welcome. For the few minutes that Commodore Tatnall was near, all objects beyond testifying their recognition of him were abandoned. A little later the ambassadors stepped into the dancing-room, where they gravely inspected the agile gyrations of fair women and brave men with an air of curious interest and occasional deep concern, as if anxious ;le to the results of a saltatory process so much at variance with their own theories on the same sub ject. After a few more introductions the ambas sadors, at half-past 11 o'clock, took leave and re turned home. Their participation in this event was, in one sense, a remarkable concession, for cus- tom in Japan forbids high dignitaries to go abroad by night, and custom there rules. The intention oP the ambassadors had at first been to adhere to this principle while in the United States, but they express some satisfaction at having set it aside, since by doing so they were enabled to share the enjoyment of so brilliant an evening.—Yew fork Tribune. A telegram from Ccnstantinople,' dated the 4th inst., reports the death of M. Theodore Baltazzi, the head of the wealthy family of bankers of that name. An enormous body of whales appeared off the coast of Belfast on Monday evening. They were so nume rous that several boats of the hook herring fishing had to leave the ground, the crews being afraid of their boats being capsized. Subjoined is the report, issued yesterday by the Committee of the Stock Exchange, on the re sults of their inquiry into the speculations of Pal linger. It does not enter into the details of each of the five cases of sußpension, any such publication being wholly unnecessary, since the Stock Ex change, Committee constit a tn a private and not a legal court, and it is enough for the public to assume that the evidence on which they have acted was such as to justify the resolutions now pro mulgated. If any of the parties see fit to question the propriety of their sentence they will have op portunity to do so, and it will then be for the com mittee to enter into whatever particulars may be necessary to satisfy the public of the grounds on which they have acted. From Mr. Bradock, upon whom the sentence is limited to three months, a letter was inserted on the 25th ult., and in the case of Messrs. Scrimgeour it may be mentioned that, although the facts are said to exhibit an extraordi nary degree of indiscretion, such as could not by any possibility be overlooked by the committee, it has been shown that they had no intention of encouraging any systematic course of speculation - for their own gain as brokers. Their fault mainly consisted iri listening to Pullinger's representations with regard to one comparatively small transaction, and in privately assisting him for three er four years to defer closing it, when a word to the manager or directors of the bank during that period might, perhaps, have arrested him in, the midst of his delinquencies. ..The sterling respecta bility of the firm has been maintained for more than a quarter of a century, and their friends still feel convinced that they would never deliberately act upon wrong principes. With regard to the general features of the present document, it will be observed that the committee state that out of the total de falcation of £263,125 only £53,285 can be traced to have been lost by operations on the Stock Ex change. Another sum of £57,000, however, was paid to a man named Nathan, an outside speculator. Reckoning this, there remains £152,840 to be ac counted for, a great part of which, probably, went upon the " turf," and will be difficult to trace, since the amount embezzled included £83,100 in gold. A final point in the report is of serious character and calls for special explanation. The committee state, that while the directors of the Union Bank furnished them with the names of Johnston, Shel don, Uzielli, and Bradock, they withheld that of Scrimgeour. To this charge the reply of the direc tors is understood to be that they supplied the com mittee with all the evidence they had obtained either from Pullinger's papers or any other source within their reach; that the knowledge of the transaction en tered into by Messrs. Scrimgeour came solely in the shape of voluntary information from that firm ; and that the feeling was that it would be unjust to com promise them upon a spontaneous admission of facts, which apparently but for this frankness no one would ever have known—an additional reason also being that in the view of the directors the affair was not one that could unequivocally be.re garded as a violation of the Stock-Exchange rules. Of course, the question as to the defects of manage ment, by which the career of Pullinger was ren dered practicable remains still to be di scusse d. That is an affair for the shareholders of the bank at the meeting next month; when the Board will have to make such apology or defence as may be in their power. Many considerations here suggest them selves, but it would be undesirable to volunteer a judgment until the whole case shall have been sub mitted in open assembly : "TO THE MEMBERS OF THE STOCK-EXCHANGE. ,"Gentlemen,—The committee fo: general purposes have already made known to you their several awards of punish ment against Mr. R. Johnston, Mr. S. Sheldon, Mr. T. Uzielli, Mr. W. A. Bradock, and Messrs. R. S., J. S., and C. J. Scrimgeour, for having carried on speculative trans actions for W. G. Pußinger, when chief cashier to the Union Bank of London, without communicating with his entplbyers ; and having also recorded their severe censure of the conduct of Messrs. Bell and Ball, their duties, under ordinary circumstances, might have been considered at an end. " They think, however, that it should be publicly known that the offence for which the members suspended have been so severely dealt with was a disregard of the warning contained in a rule (Na. 8.5) passed by the•committee for the especial protection of banking and other interests, and they deem it an act of justice to yourselves to give publicity to the result of a long and careful investigation, which en• ables them to state, that neither from any data furnished by the Union Bank, nor by evidence otherwise obtained, have they any knowledge or suspicion that other members of the Stock Exchange are implicated in these unjustifiable transactions. "The committee wish to maks these facts known as speedily as possible, as they conceive that the Stock Ex chang e—a body numbering more than 1,000 members, and largely representing the commercial and financial interests of this country—has been suffering too long from a general reproach which, in reality, should only attach to five of its present firms—one of the offending- parties, the firm of Messrs. Bell and Ball, who carried on by far the largest operations for Mr. G. Pullinger, being, in consequence of default in and since April, 1819, beyond the control of the committee. " Your committee also consider that some notice should be taken of the circular issued in April last to the share holders of the Union Bank of London, in which the direc tors, from the confessions of Pullinger, most hastily adopted by themselves, lead the public to infer that the enormous amount of £263,000, embezzled by the delinquent clerk, had been lost by him in speculations on the Stock Ex change. " Your committee refrain from commenting en the evi dent laxity of that system of check which has proved itself not only insufficient to prevent the commission of a gigantic fraud, but has allowed it to remain undetected from year to year. A Your committee wish distinctly to state that the only documents possessed by the directors of the Union Bank, upon which they adopted the assertions of Pullinger, were certain brokers' notes and accounts, generally without head ing or si g nature, and rep resen ti ng a t r ifli ng l oss o f a b ou t £1,290. Upon this p int there can be no doubt, as the corn raittee have seen and examined the whole of these papers; and the directors of the Union Bank admit that they nei ther had, when they issued their circular, nor have since found, any other documents than tliose referred to. "By an account of banknotes passed and credits given, the Union Bank of London have furnished to your com mittee sufficient evidence to enable them to carry through a general and searching inquiry, including a viva voce exa mination of the brokers accused of having undertaken spe culative business for Pullinger ; but in order to obtain a full knowledge of the facts a sub-committee was specially appointed to analyse and report upon each separate account, and, from their investigation it results that the balance of moneys actually paid b y W . G. Pullinger on account of speculative transacti ons carried on through members of the Stock .Exchange (includine, Messrs. Bell and Ball), from January, 1855, when the defalcations first commenced. up to April of the present year, amounted to a total of £53,285. It is but reasonable to suppose that this amount would not have been so large had not Pullinger's operations been greatly facilitated by the extraordinary power which he ap pears to have possessed in passing entries to the accounts and in the passbooks of those brokers who kept accounts at the Union Bank. tt Through what channels the immense balance of above £200,000 has passed it is scarcely a question for this com mittee to decide. But it ap,: , ears, in an account furnished by the Union Bank, that the delinquent Pullinger had passed credits amounting to £57,000 to a person named Nathan, who is reported to have died lately at Paris, pos sessed of considerable wealth, and who had, at the time these entriea were made, an account with the Union Bank; but as Nathan was never a membe r of the Stock-Exchange, the committee can have no knowledge of his transactions. There is also very sufficient evidence that Pulllinger was largely interested in the results of horse-racing. " To co-operate with the directors of the Union Bank, and to render them every assistance, has been the constant wish of the committee ; and they have much pleasure in knowing that, from information forwarded through them, and by individual members of the Stock-Exchange, the directors have been enabled to realise val ua bl e asse t s placed by Pullinger in the names of other persons. " On the other hand, the directors of the Union Bank not only furnished information leading to the suspension of Messrs. Bradock, Johnston, Sheldon, and Uzielli, but in answer to tho earnest requests of your committee, promised to forward to them as soon as obtained every intelligence as to the participation of other members of the Stock Ex change in speculative transactions for Pullinger. Th e following facts will enable you to decide whether the promises made by the directors of the Union Bank have been fulfilled. Immediately after the discovery of the enormous loss sustained by the Union Bank, Messrs. Scrimgeour commu nicated to the Bank, through the manager, Mr. W. W. Scrimgeour, that th e y , the br okers to th company, had carried on a speculative account for W. G. Pullinger; but the committee regret to say that no communication was made to them on this subject by either manager or direc tors, and that the knowledge of the offence committed was obtained by your comtnittee through an entirely different channel, and at an interval of more than a month after the first communication of Messrs. Scrimgeour to the manager of the Union Baak. l 4 Determined as your committee have been to administer strict and impartial justice to all, and believing that the feelings of the directors of the Union Bank of London were entirely in unison with their own, the discovery of this im portant suppression has caused them considerable pain and surprise. " In conclusion, your committee cannot but express re gret that even six firms of the Stock Exchange should have carried on speculations on account of a clerk in a banking establishment; but they trust they have shown that they are determined to enforce obedience to a law passed spe cially to protect the interests of the public ; and they feel confident they represent the feeling of the entire body of the Stock Exchange in saying that th e y d eep l y deplore t h e acts of those who, by their misconduct, have compromised the character of the Stock Exchange. " By order of the Committee, 4, GEORGE LOVELESS, Secretary. " Stock Exchange; June 5," Her Majesty's ship Vivid, on special -service at Dover under the orders of the Lords of the Admi ralty, yesterday returned to Woolwich. The Dtinean, 101, screw, fitting at Portsmouth, has shipped her Griffithe's propeller, and will test her machinery, in compliance with the established regulations, in the steam basin today. The I)ee paddle steamer, Master Comthan der P al len, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday with boilers for the Perseverance. The Princess Royal, 91, screw, has been berthed alongside the sheer jetty in Portsmouth yard for the purpose of being masted. The Prince Regent, 90, undergoing conversion from a sailing liner to screw, in No. 3 Dock at Ports mouth, has been discovered to be very defective in her bows from the effects of dry rot, and a number of her timbers, with the greater proportion of her bow planking, is consequently being removed. The screw steam transport Lord Panmure, H. T. More Master-Commander, returned to Woolwich yesterday, having discharged a quantity of stores at the Tower, from the stranded ship Havering, at Devonport. She has brought 200 tons of guns for Woolwich, which have been replaced by the Arm strong along the coast. The examination of candidates for admission to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, by the Council of Military Education, commenced yester dry at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, Major-General Rumley, vice-president, presiding. There were close upon 40 candidates. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Capt. the Hon. F. Egerton to the St. George ; Lieut. W. H. Childers, to the Fire brand; J. B. Cronin, surgeon, to the Bulldog; G. H. Mini, assist.-paymaster, to the Leopard ; Wm. Adams, clerk, to the Orion ; G. A. Michell, assist.- clerk, to the Fisgard ; A. B.

The coloneley of the 78th Highland Regiment of Foot has become vacant by the demise of Lieu tenant-General Sir William Chalmers, C.B. and K.C.H., who died on Saturday last at his seat near Dundee. The deceased General was the eldest son of the late Mr. William Chalmers, of Glenericht, Perthshire, and was born in 1787. Soon after completing his 16th year he entered the army. He served in Sicily in 1806 and 1807, and the follow ing year accompanied his regiment to Portugal, and served during the campaigns of 1808 in that coun try and in Spain. He was in the expedition to Walchern, including the bomhardment of Flushing. In 1810 he proceeded to Cadiz, and took part in all the succeeding campaigns in the Peninsula, includ ing the battle of Barossa, attack of the enemy on the heights near Moresco, affair at Senhora de la Pena, battle of Salamanca, action of San Munos, battle of Vittoria, attack at Maya, battles of the Pyrenees on the 30th and 31st of July, repulse of the enemy in his attack of the heights of St. An tonio on the 31st of August, attack of the enemy's forts near Sarre oa the 9th of October, 1813 ; battle of Nivelle, besides many other minor affairs and skirmishes on the advance to Madrid and capture of Retiro. He was present in almost all the sieges and was engaged during the retreat from Burgos in the affairs of Oimos, Monasterio, bridge of Valla dolid, and the passage of the Huebra. He was employed on the staff in the above campaigns in the Peninsula, and was severely wounded in the assault of the entrenchments at Sarre, and during his services in Portugal and Spain he had six horses killed or wounded under him in action. During the four years he was engaged in active service, from the sth of March, 1811, to the 18th of June, 1815, he was present in seventeen engage ments, six of them general actions, exclusive of sieges, &c. The gallant deceased also served in the campaign of 1814 in the Netherlands, and was pre sent at Waterloo. At that battle he commanded a wing of the 52d Regiment, of which he was - Major, and had three horses shot under him. He was at the capture of Paris, and did not return from France until 1817. In 1837 he was nominated a Knight Com mander of the Royal Hanoverian Order of Knight hood; was in 1838 made a Companion of the Order of the Bath, and was, by letters patent, made a Knight Bachelor in 1847. The deceased veteran had received the silver war medal and eight clasps for Barossa, Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajez, Salamanca, Vittoria, Pyrenees, St. Sebastian, and Nivelle. His commissions bore date as follows :—Ensign, the 9th of July, 1803 ; Lieut., the 25th of October, 1803 ; Capt., the 27th of August, 1807 ; Major, the 26th of August, 1813 ; Lieut.-Col., the 18th of June, 1815 ; Col., the 10th of January, 1837 ; Major- General, the 9th of November, 1846 ; and Lieut.- Gen., the 20th of June, 1854. He was appointed Colonel of the 78th Regiment the 30th of Septem ber, 1853. The Foyle and Iberia steamers arrived at Ports mouth yesterday morning from Dublin with the 55th Regiment on board, which disembarked at the north corner of the dockyard and left for Alder shott Camp at 4.40 p.m. The annual field-day and inspection of the Chat ham (Ist) division of Royal Marine Light Infan try, was held yesterday by Major-General S. R. Wesley, Deputy Adjt.-Gen. The battalion, in consequence of the success which has recently at tended the efforts of the various recruiting parties, is now very strong, the number of men present yesterday being only a few short of 1,100, exclu sive of several hundred men absent either in hospi tal, doing duty afloat, or on the recruiting service. The division was formed at 10 a.m. in the barrack square, awaiting the arrival of 'Major-Gen. Wesley, who was received by Col. E. Rea, commandant, Col. G. E. Hunt, second commandant, and the staff at head-quarters. The days proceedings commenced by General Wesley making an individual inspec tion of each company, after which the men's kits were inspected, and found to be in very excellent order and condition. Owing to the limited space in the barrack square, the battalion was unable to execute any extended movements, conse quently General Wesley merely gave the usual invitation to those who had complaints to make to step forward, when, there being no response, the officers and men were dis missed until the afternoon. General Wesley then made a tour of the barracks, inspecting the barrack- rooms, school-rooms, non-commissioned officers' mess-rooms, library, and the other offices, with the appearance of which he expressed himself well satis fied. At 1 o'clock a portion of the Marines were selected for inspection at working the great guns, the whole battalion being regularly instructed at gun drill in order to be able to work the great guns on board a vessel of war when serving afloat. The men having been marched to the ship gun bat tery, which is fitted up to resemble exactly the broadside of a line-of-battle ship, and fitted with the largest guns, General Wesley spent some time in this portion of the inspection, the Marines being exercised by Capt. C. B. Parke. The ease and ra pidity with which the guns were worked and served were particularly worthy of commendation, and, after about two hours at the battery, the men were dismissed and marched back to their quarters, and General Wesley proceeded to Chatham lines, where the whole of the officers and men of the division were. drawn up, to inspect the division in battalion drill, each man having been - fuinished with ,20 rounds of -blank ammunition. On the arrival of the General on the ground he was received by the in line, and after riding up and down the front and rear General Wesley took up his position at the sainting flag,, when the companies marched past in slow and quick time. The columns were again reformed and.the battalion put through a variety of manoeuvres by Col. Rea, who commanded, many of them being of a difficult and complicated character. The steadiness of the battalion under arms and the superior manner in which the Various manoeuvres of the day were executed elicited the highest praise from the military officers and others present, and fully confirmed the praises previously passed on the Chatham division of Marines as being one of the best disciplined corps in her Majesty's service. At the conclusion of the field-day movements General Wesley expressed.to Col. Rea his unqualified approbation of the manner in which both officers and men had acquitted themselves. General Wesley during the day visited and inspected Hospital, over which he was conducted by Deputy Inspector-Gen. J. W Johnston, M,D. This hospital is a perfect model establishment, the highest encomiums having been passed on it by Miss Nightingale on the last oeca: sion of her visiting it. Last night Gen. Wesley was entertained by the officers of the division at dinner in their commodious mess -room, and this morning will continue his inspection of the battalion by wit nessing the Marines at rifle firing, and exercising,. the officers in the bayonet and sword exercises. Lieut.-Gen. Sir J. F. Love has, during the past week, made his usual periodical inspection of the troops stationed in the camp at Colchester. On Tuesday a review of all the troops in camp took place on Middlewick Farm. Gen. Love is expected to leave Colchester to-day. The I Battery of Artillery has left Norwich for Weolwich, Capt. Phelips, Lieut. Leacock, Lieut. Schack, and 103 non-commissioned officers and gunners belong ing to the Ist brigade Garrison Artillery, yester day returned to Woolwich, having terminated a course of experimental gun practice at Shoebury ness. The squadron of Dragoons (the 10th Hussars) in command of Capt. Sawbridge, on duty at Wool wich since February last, yesterday received orders to hold themselves in readiness to march for Houns low-heath, to go under canvas as soon as the stormy state of the weather shall have somewhat abated. Their short sojourn at Woolwich has apparently completely renovated the condition of both men and horses, the latter on entering the garrison having been designated as " a remnant of the Cri mean campaign," in consequence of their peculiarly meagre and half-starved appearance. Their quar ters at Woolwich will be immediately taken up by Capt. Saunders's troop of Horse Artillery (the I battery), who have commenced their march from Norwich for head-quarters. AN ()holes AND SIIIPWRECE S. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SIIN. Sir,—The following brief summary is gleaned from the evidence (not the report) of the Parliamen tary committee " On Anchors and Cables, Merchant Service," printed by order of the House of Com mons, March 7, 1860. Liverpool and Sunderland appear to be the only ports of the United Kingdom provided with public proving-machines wherewith the strength, and con sequent efficiency, of anchors and cables can be tested. The statistical results from 1855 to 1859 ad duced by the Liverpool Superintendent are most remarkable. He states that during the above four years 49,777 fathoms were proved at the corporation machine, out of which 41,146 fathoms were found defective, or 821 per cent., at a proof 121 to 15 per cent. less than the official test applied to all cables used in the royal navy, or 111 tons to the square inch ; and good ordinary iron is computed to bear 28 tons tensile strain before fracture. lle is asked (question 367)—" What is the nature of the fractures you class under the head defec tive ?'—Craeks, openings of the weld, and flaws in the iron. (446.) Am Ito understand a defective cable to be one which yields in one or two or three links ?—We have had as many as 70 bad links in one length of 15 fathoms. (452.) What becomes of the condemned cables ?—I do not know—they are sold. (584.) Can you state what proportion of the cables in the port of Liverpool are tested P—l do not think we test one in a thousand; I believe the greater proportion of cables are not tested." A Sunderland shipowner is also examined (ques tion, 1,760),—" Taking the case of a brig of 250 tons, what is the weight of her two chains ?—About four tons. (1761.) What is the difference of value per ton between the worst and the best cable she could take out ?—I endeavour to see that I get the best ; it is just 10s. per ton. (1,762,) The conse quence is that for 1:2 you make the difference between risk and safety ?—Between risk and less risk." In order fully to appreciate the meaning of these questions and answers, let us turn to the scene en acted yesterday week off Yarmouth. The anchorage is an open roadstead ; 100 or more coasters, colliers, &c., had resorted there for safety. At 10 a.m. a fine brig was first seen dragging towards the edge of the Scroby Sands, and shortly afterwards nine others were to be seen driving to swift destruction, within sight of horror-stricken spectators who thronged the beach to witness this accumulation of casualties. The men whose duty it was to man the lifeboat were all this time wrangling on the beach; every moment thus sacrificed claimed its victims, and some 50 or 60 precious lives perished in the sea or sands around Scroby. Thus practically demonstrated is the nice distinc tion between " risk and safety, or risk and less risk." One ship is supplied with anchors and cables truly symbolical of hope and safety, and by which she rides out the fury of the tempest ; while the ill fated ship found with worthless anchors and fraudulent cables is driven from alongside to certain destruction or shipwreck. An hydraulic proof apparatus for testing the strength of chains and anchors is very simple and inexpensive in operation ; 10s. per ton covers the whole expense and outlay, and the establishments at Liverpool and Sunderland are thus rendered self supporting. It would be no restriction upon trade, or inter ference with the shipowner, to enforce a recognised standard proof for anchors and cables, the same as for guns and pistols, gold or silver plate. I implore the aid of your powerful pen once more ' in the cause, and remain,—Yours, Sze. JOIIN TROTMAN. 42, Ciruhill, Juno 5. JOINT B. GouGri.--During th© past year Mr. Gough has delivered 175 of his powerful addresses in the provinces, 14 in Exeter Hall, and 10 in theatres, halls, and chapels in . L , nlon. In the provinces it is estimated that over 140,000 have listened to his arguments and appeals, Ind over 4,000 have signed the pledge of total abstinence ; while in London he has addressed upwards of 30,000 persons, and 1,600 persons have been added to the pledge-book at the close of the meetings, besides large numbers afterwards.

ECCLESIASTICAL , &e., BILL. On the order fn• the second reeding of this bill, - Mr. SELWYN moved that the bill be read a second time this day sir months. He considered that a measure of this kind should, on the motion for its second roLding, ire introduced with some preliminary remarks. lie rep; ded the bill as a measure which had for its object the vesting of the whole landed property of the Church in the bands of the Ecclesiastical Commission, and in his opinion there were three great objections to it, namely that it was a Mea sure Which comprised centralisation, compensation, and confiscation. The centralising ele men t o f th e bill 4Ould • have the effect of severing to a considerable extent, in some cases, tht important ties that at present existed between the Church and landlord and tenant. Having stated the opinions expressed by the Committee of the House of Lords, of which Lords Brougham and St. Leonards, and the Duke of Buccleuch, and other competent authorities, were Mem bers, on ibis subject, in support of his views, he adverted to the last report of the Ecclesiastical Commission in 'No vember, 1859. That report stated, that the property en trusted to its care already was situated in different counties, which rendered its collection very difficult ; and that the - annual income amounted to no less than £173,560. It was now proposed to vest the cathedral property, as well as the property belonging to the deans and canons, in the 131111111'. commission. In his objection to the functions exercised by the Commission he wished it to be understood that he did not object to the constitution of that body, as he believed it was composed of gentlemen the best qualified to discharge the duties entrusted to them ; but practically they merely carried out the instructions of a subordinate official body. He referred to the mode in which the accounts were au dited, which he described as most imperfect, and Hilaire live of the defective principles on which the 'bill !was founded. . There was another defect arising out of the sys tem of centralisation, one of the main elements of the bill, namely, the expense incurred in collection and manage ment, which in one year amounted to £43,583 15s. 10d. With regard to the application of the money collected, it :veered that the magnificent sum of £404 was ap -peed - to schools, to necessitous livings £52,003, to new distric!s £36,400 making a total in round numbers of £89,003 appropriated to meet the spiritual destitution that• prevailed in the country, and that out of an income of £173,000, being about double the amount ex pended in , the expenses of mere management. With' respect to his second objection, that of compensation; the other principle of the bill. At present the whole management of the cathedral estates was in the hands' of chapter clerks, whose duties were proposed to be transferred to other officials. These chapter clerks would have to be compensated for the loss of their office, and their successors would have to learn 'their duties. The hon. and learned member then proceeded to argue that the bill would lead to extensive litigation, the expenses of which would have to be defrayed out of the income that would b 3 vested in the hands of the commission. With reference to the third objection, confiscation, he would ask whether, looking at the question practically, it could be expected to work satisfactorily or equitably ? How was anyone to know the time when confiscation should take place, and in its operation it would lead to litigation that would be 'unavoidable and expensive. He should be happy to see alterations that would remove any defects -in the Church, but he strongly deprecated any attempt to deprive it of the property to which it was as well entitled as any lay corpo ration. The Emperor of the French had set the country an example in dealing with Church property, but his con duct liad been described as spoliation and confiscation, terms which applied with equal propriety to the attempt in this bill to infringe the vested rights of the State Church in this country. What he would suggest was that the Crown should exercise its right in remodelling the estates, and that the commission should have only that fair propor tion of the property to which they were justly entitled. If they desired to create a new body let them form a board of a diocesan character and possessed of local knowledge._ To a proposition of the kind the members of the chapter were ready to accede, and nothing of a fairer character could be submitted for the adoption of the house. Mr. Alderman COPELAND seconded the amendment, and went into figures to show that the commission incurred an extravagant expenditure, and before conferring on them additional powers, he thought it right that there should be some inquiry into the mode in which they had managed their business. He dwelt particularly on the item in the account of the commission of £8,675 annually for clerks, which, as a man acquainted with commerce, he was satis fied was a sum that should not be appropriated to such a purpose, considering the duties these clerks were called on to discharge. Mr. FRE ELAND said this bill was only a step in a a certain direction, and not a settlement of the question. He considered the bill might have been divided into two bills, the one that would deal with capitular estates and the other with lessees' claims. He was opposed to the principles of centralisation, but he was of opinion that, in the present case, what he would call intermediate cen tralisation would operate beneficially. He heard the statements put forward by the chapters, and he thought that so far as their interests ware concerned they had taken care of themselves, and not paid much attention to the in terests of the lessees. He thought they should have fol lowed the principle which they had laid down in the Irish Church temporalities, which gave the Irish Church lessees the power of compulsory enfranchisement of 'Church land in Ireland. He objected also to the political operation that would result from the proposed new system, by which cathedral towns, being also Parliamentary boroughs, would virtually be converted into nomination boroughs in the hands of the clergy. (Strong expressions of dissent on the part of several mem bers.) He wished it to be understood that he used the terms only in a figurative sense. He had other objections to the bill, but he thought it could be properly amended in committee, and therefore he would not oppose its second reading. Sir G. C. LEWIS said that the bill originated with a committee of this house, of which the noble lord the mem ber for the City of London was chairman. It passed this house in 1858, but at too late a period of the session to be introduced into the House of Lords. The following session it was passed by the House of Lords, having been made the subject of an inquiry before a select committee, but it was then too late in the session for its going through this house. He thought under these circumstances that its provisions were so well known as to render any explana tion inmoving the secondreading unnecessary. The present bill was only in conformity with the policy of the house in - respect to Church property. Hon. members must be aware that they had proceeded is recent legislation on the prin ciple of preventing the incomes of those high in the Church being increased in proportion to the augmented value of the Church property. The management of that property was accordingly entrusted to the Eccle siastical Commission, and he believed that it could not be imputed to that body that they had neglected or improperly discharged their duties. Ho thought that this bill should essentially be debated in committee, and not made the subject of a rambling discus sion on a motion for the second reading. This bill was merely a "collection of provisions in order to give effect to the powers previously conferred on the Ecclesiastical Com mission, and the proper course for its opponents to have adopted;would have been to bring in a bill to repeal the act whiCh constituted that commission. Having referred to some other objections to the bill, he contended that the commission could not permanently alienate or confiscate Church property. With reference to the accounts it could not be doubted that they formed a very important subject for consideration, but he denied that they were open to censure in the case, because they had not been presented in an intelligible manner to every person who investigated them. The fact was that they were kept in a most perfect manner, and could be easily understood by persons accustomed to accounts of a necessarily complicated description. The right hon. gentleman said he would give every assistance to the amendment of the bill, for which he had no parental affection, as it was not his own, but he called on the house to permit the bill to go into committee, unless they were resolved to adopt a retrograde policy in reference to church property. Mr. MO WBRAY said that although he could not approve of all parts of the bill, still he would vote for the second reading, as he did not wish to offer any obstacle to legislation on the subject which was most desirable. The hon. member then proceeded to detail different objec tions to the bills, which he said he trusted would be re moved by the amendments introduced in committee. He thought that the Government had mixed up too many mat ters in this bill, and he trusted that ,the Home Secretary would consider whether he could not withdraw the present bill, and introduce two or three short bills on the subject. This was extremely desirable, for the bill contained matter on which it was most requisite to legislate without further delay, while there were others with respect to which there was considerable difference of opinion. Lord H. VANE agreed with many of the observations of the weeding speaker, and, he considered that it would have been far more desirable if the matters contained in the bill had been decided, and he much doubted whether the measure would pass this session. However, as he deemed it necessary that there should be speedy legislation on this matter, he would follow the example of the preceding speaker, and vote for the second reading of this bill ; but he hoped that clauses would be introduced in committee that would afford greater protection to the interests of the lessees than they at present possessed. He t hou g ht that be in the directions to the Ecclesiastical Commission should very specific, for there were many things eis conduct that were censurable. Lord J. MANNERS opposed the bill on the whiff was principlesthegr h ou .t nd of in it, an-c the general proposed to increase the in p volv ow ed ewers of the commissioners, and renderin g them a perpetual body. He thou g ht entrust to a commi ss i on it would bo most impolitic t sitting in London absolute control over the whole pr o p erty of the Church situ ated in different parts of the country. He contended that the bill was not only not in accordance with, but directly contrary to, the recommendation of the committee of 1856. It was a most preposterous proposal, according to the provisions of the bill, to hand over the income of the chapter property . to a body w h ose au dit o f accoun ts was admitted to be unintelligible. The noble lord concluded by stating that he felt called on to vote for the amendment. Mr. INGHAM supported the second reading of the bill, which he considered would prove beneficial to bishops, deans and chapters, and would obviate invidious collision between the clergy and laity. Mr. HOWARD said that through the North of Eng land there was great indignation entertained at the con duct of the Ecclesiastical Commission, and he trusted that the house would not confer on that body additional powers . Mr. NEWDEGATE opposed the second reading, and censured the conduct of the - Ecclesiastical Commission. After some remarks from Mr. LIDDELL, Mr. DEEDES, as one of the commissioners, defended the conduct of that body. They endeavoured to discharge their duty conscientiously, but they had various parties to contend with, and they therefore could not satisfy all. On the motion of Mr. HENLEY, the debate was ad journed until this day fortnight. MASTERS AND OPERATIVES BILL. This bill passed through the committee. TRAMWAYS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
