The 19th inst., on the morning of which day I sent off my last letter to you, was devoted to re pairing damages, repitching tents, drying the con tents of trunks and saddlebags, seeking things that had strayed or been blown away, and re-establish ing, as far as possible, the status quo. The Moors did not show ; the storm had probably dispersed and driven them to shelter. Yesterday, was fine, and our friends appeared again. There was Xt. mishing at varicus points of the line ; the Spanish artillery fired a great deal, and is supposed to have done the enemy much harm ; at any rate, it made them run fast enough. They do not at all relish artil lery, and we are accumulating a good deal of it for their benefit. They showed some hundred cavalry yesterday, and a staff officer assured me that he saw the horsemen riding to and fro behind the in fantry, and urging them on with blows. It is cer tain that in recent encounters the Moors have not come on with the same vigour and eagerness as ror merly. Yesterday, for a considerable time in the afternoon, they occupied a series of ridges opposite our left, but showed no disposition to come within short musket range, or risk a serious attack. Gene ral Ros de Olano's troops had orders to content themselves with maintaining their position, and not to advance, since to have moved out against the Moors would have been only to expose the men without possible advantage. For the present we hold our lines, but do not desire anything beyond them. So, as the Moors would not risk themselves from under cover, and the Spaniards remained motionless, the musketry was at very long range, and a large number of cartridges was expended with little or no result. The casualties on our side were about 50, and, but for the artillery, which punished them a good deal, I do not suppose those of the Moors would have been very time) greater, for they lie close under their banks and hedges, stand up for an instant to fire, and are down again directly. Our men, for the most part young troops, are more fond of firing than sure of their aim (although.' some of the Cazadore battalions are said to be expert marks men), and if their shots tell at the distance at which they were yesterday shooting, and against targets so dim and uncertain as the head of a crouching Moor, it must be more by accident than skill. It seems to me that, instead of this game of long shots leading to nothing except the expenditure of ammu nition, it would be better to let the men lie close behind their parapets and not return the fire, and then, if the Moors, emboldened by their forbear ance, ventured near, treat them with a volley, or charge them with the bayonet. I doubt whether they would come near enough to be caught in general when the Spaniards, weary of skirmish ing, or just at nightfall, move forward from their position in line without firing, the enemy scampers away in all haste. To-day the gunboats have gone a little way along the Straits, and are firing at the Moorish camp in rear of the Sierra and at some caves, in which the Moors habitually shelter themselves. At this mo• meat (3 p.m.) musketry has just begun upon our left, some distance in advance. It is doubtless the escort of the working party, returning home, and followed up by the Moors. I believe there is no one in the army who will not be glad when these weari some and fruitless skirmishes are over and we come to something more decisive. Brigadier Sir Richard La Saussaye, who cora man.ded the first Spanish brigade that cattle over hero (part of Echague's corps), and who has dis played military skill and conspicuous gallantry in the various affairs that have since taken place, has been raised to the rank of Major-General—a pro motien well-earned, and which I believe has given satisfaction to those who have been lately serving under him. General La Saussaye is an Irishman, and. was formerly in the Spanish Royal Guard whttn that corps d'elite existed. There has been some delay owing to bad weather, and afterwards to breakage, in the laying of the remnant of theAtlan tic cable which came here in t he Tweedside, to connect the Spanish and Afri can coasts. To-day, boy/ever, all difficulties were overcome. At a little before ten this morning the Twoedside left Tarifa, paying out the wire, and at two p.m. the , connexion was completed, and Ines sag9s were sent to Madrid, Paris, and London. Colonel Gurrea, of General O'Donnell's staff, as sisted at the whole of the operation. Beyond two or three Madrid journals not many pap rs reach us here, but I occasionally get hold of a number of the übiquitous Galignani, and from it I derive the little knowledge obtainable here of wha.t is going on in civilised lands. In the impres sion of the 12-13th inst. I notice an article extracted front one of your London contemporaries, which maps it evident to mo that there are very incorrect Weald abroad as t o th e even t s th a t h ave p asse d a ronaid Ceut a d ur i ng th e l as t mont h . M y l e tt ers , if they have reached you, as I hope, will have dis pelled som e o f t h e d elus i ons that seem to have ob tained currency. The article in question, in speak ing of the actions of the 25th and 30th ult. in sinuates that the Spaniards had by no means the best of it. There is no question but that the Moors attar ked, and so they did in nearly ev cry affair that has i taken e merely place. It i s not our o bje ct to attac k mto i.w desire to hold th e pos iti ons t. we have taken and are fortifying, and await the mordent when all shall be in readiness for operations on *n more importantscale, and in another direction. Thi sis certain ; but it is equally so that, as ofteuns the enemy has presented himself, he has been re pulsfred,and worsted. It is completely untrue that a gun . was captured on the 30th ult., and I am ignorant Will it can have given rise to such a report. No Spai dards have as yet been made prisoners to the knowledge of anybody here; none have been re turn ed as missing. 4, Marshal O'Donnell," the writ er continues, "was represented by the last :te mp: ,ts as making preparations to return to Madrid, leav: ing the command in the hands of Zabala." Tlic re has never been the slightest rumour here of such . an intention on the part of the Commander whose presence everybody considers as in ensable, if the campaign is to continue. Th e expo :dition was certainly undertaken, as the article says ,at a most unfitting time, but that it will " .end the winter in Africa under canvas" is higl thy improbable—if, at Last, it be thereby im plio 1 that it will remain all the winter in its pre sen 1. lines. The writer then asks how it is to be pro vis Toned in a country" where the arrival of a single tra yeller sometimes causes a scarcity." Luckily the art) y is only al..;olit 15 miles from Algesiras, 10 from Ta rife, a few hours steam from Cadiz or Malaga ; so that there is a possibility of its escaping famine. As . to pressing forward into the interior of Morocco at this season of the year, that is what no one dro ams of; it would be mere madness. Those of the lie drid papers which only a few weeks ago so pret tily mapped out the route of this army, allotting so ma: ay days to fighting, so many to marching, so EVENING, J NUAR l 3, 1 many. to sieges, &e., and, telling the whole force to spend its Christmas or !Slew Year in Fez, must by this time be pretty v.elltnvineed of their presump tion and folly. , • DECEMBER 22. Very high winds all night ; a strong Levanter. The mail due yesterday did not arrive—a great dis appointmenv always in a camp, where letters and papers are eagerly awaited as' the chief of the few . pleasures obtainable. General Prim's division is just marching out of camp on its way to Monte Negro, a mountain abot'it six:miles on this side of ' Cape Negro, and consi : rably beyond Caltille;os. I understand that as . :the army advances upon Tetuan, 22 steamers la n with stores and provi sions (they take 500,000 rations), besides the war steamers, will pursue a parallel progresS. I should mention, if I have not done so bllore, that Castelijdh is the name given to two small Square white houses, having the appearance of stunted towers, which stand some distance ;Tait on nearly the last of the slopes to be traversed before reaching the level ground on the way to Cape Negro, and considerably beyond our lines. Nearly all the field artillery has arrived. The siege train will not be landed here. Gen. Prim takes with him 'six battalions, some hussars. and four batteries. He is going to blow up some pieces of rock that encumber the road in that direction, and will, return in the afternoon. Troops are thrown outlin support and line the heights in frouruttifTeral*s de ()land's camp. There have been three or four shots just fired, but the Moors do not yet show, and it is not expected they will make r much Oposition, although they will doubtless follow up the troops as they retire. Everything seems to indicate an approaching move of the army. Advices from Morocco, via Gibraltar, received at Southampton by the mail steamer China, contain no later intelligence from the seat of war than that already to band by way of Madrid. The Gibrattar Chronicle of Dec. 15th has the following : " Moorish accounts represent the action of the 12th inst. as a more serious affair than th© Spanish official notice of it would had us to infer. In this conflict, as in the preceding ose, both sides claim the victory. This is not perhaps surprising when we consider that in all these engagements, after contesting the field with great gallantry on both sides, as is proved by the number of casualties, each retires at the close of the day to his own ground The following is a history of the 12th as given by the Moors :—At an early hour a division of the Spanish army (Prim's corps, as we learn from the Spanish statement) advanced to apiece called Merso del Fneedak, which is about five miles distant from Ceuta and on the seashore. Here they commenced the construction of works, apparently with the ob ject of establishing themselves at this point• A body of about 7,000 infantry and 150 horse, under . _ the command of Kaid Abbas Emkished, Governor of Riff, was immediately detached from the Moorish Army for the purpose of attacking the Spaniards and dislodging them from the position they had taken up. In this the Moors assert that after a sharp struggle they were successful • that they drovQ the Spanish forces back upon their positions before Ceuta; and that reinforcements sent out by the Spanish General failed to arrest the retreat until the Spaniards had reached the Ssrrallo. The works it Merso del Fnectlak were destroyed, the sandbags emptied, and the bags carried off to the Moorish camp. In its main features, as regards the actual movement, this account does not vary much from , that we have received from Ceuta; in the latter it is admitted that Prim's corps, after making an ad vance, retreated upon tie Spanish positions, with the object, it is alleged, of drawing the Moors within range of the Spanish artillery. There are vicient discrepancies as to the killed and wounded. he Moors give their own loss as 15 or 16 killed Ind about 40 wounded, and allege that the line of retreat of the Spaniards from Merso del Fneedak to the Serail° was strewn with Spanish dead. The Spanish account represents their killed at four, and wounded 46, and the losses of the Moors as immense. • " The conviction seems daily gaining ground tmong persons of intelligence who have watched this a►ntest from its commencement that an inva •lion of Morocco from Ceuta is attended by difficul ties' little appreciated by the greater part of the Spanish nation Who so eagerly urged their Govern !nent to declare war. The nearest and only accessible point from Ceuta is Tetuan, a distance of eight leagues ; but the lino of much to Tetuan is hemmed in by the sea on one hand and Sierra Bullones on the other, leaving, therefore, little room for strate gic combinations. Moreover, no road exists pass ible by artillery or heavy stores ; and at this season if the year heavy rains may at any moment render the ground impracticable for military - operations. En the meantime the Moorish host assembled in the neighbourhood of the Straits is receiving 'Lally accessions. Sierra Bullones affords Inis iailable positions, whence wild hordes of irre gulars would operate upon the flank and rear A' the Spanish army, should it advance, and threaten its communicatioa with its base of operations at Ceuta should it capture I'etuan. O'Donnell's movements form, therefore, at the present moment a subject of the deepest in terest. Whether with an army the effective Arength of which does not probably exceed 40,000 he can commit himself to au advance into the ix teller, in the teeth of the fierce resistance and the numbers of his enemies, the unfavourable nature of the ground, and the difficulties of Commissariat and hozpital administration, is a matter of grave doubt. The Madrid journals describe the state of the pub lic mind as one of feverish anxiety for news of a more decided character from Africa; but we are glad to observe that the journals themselves incul cate patience, and seem fully to understand that in war there are difficulties which, even with the bravest troops and ablest commanders, can only be surmounted by time and prudence." The Chronicle of the 20th says : " The following is the Moorish account of the action of the 15th instant During the night of the 14th the Spaniards marched, in great force, to the Aoyats, a small stream which falls into the sea at a point about midway between Fneedak and the Serrallo. Fifteen hundred irregular horse, com manded by Sidi A'isalam Ben Ouda, the Governor of Algarb, who had only just arrived at the scat of war, and 1,200 Kabyles, advanced to attack them the following morning, but had no sooner com menced fighting than they were driven back, partly by the overwhelming superiority of the enemy in numbers, and partly by a more than usually effec tive fire of shell from three or four steamers which supported the Sp mish operations on shore. The Spaniards charged the flying horse, and would no doubt have inflicted on them very heavy losses had it not been for the Kabyles, who advanced boldly to the front, and, making a most gallant stand against the fearful odds by which they were as sailed, successfully covered the retreat of their brethren. In the sharp hand-to-hand encounter the Spaniards are said to have had many men put hors de combat. The loss on the part of the Moors was trifling. Some Spanish muskets and ammunition, as also an ambulance cart, fell into the hands of the mountaineers, and 10 prisoners are said to have been marched to the Viceroy's Camp in the neighbour hood. While the fighting was going on in the Tetuan direction the Tangier division of the Moorish troops, under the command of the Governor of Riff Kaid Abbas Einkished, attacked the Spanish encampment at Jama Burbash' (which is the most westerly point yet taken by the Spaniards, and is called after an old ruined marabout, or Saint house, situated at the foot of the high ground occupied by them), drove the enemy back, and took possession of his earthworks. The Spaniards returned to the charge during the morning, regained the earth works, but were immediately after again repulsed from them. A sharp fire was exchanged between the contending parties for the rest of the day, arid, although the Spaniards charged three times, the Moors held their ground until after nightfall when they retired quietly to their own ramp. The Moorish loss on this occasion amounted to six men killed and 15 wounded. " In comparing this with the Spanish account we must bear in mind that, of the two attacks men tioned, the first was on the Spanish left and the second on the Spanish right. The former appears to have been repelled without much difficulty by Ros de Olano's division. The latter was sustained with greater v;gour. The assertion by the Moors that they gained possession of the Spanish earth works is not correct. At least they never advanced so far as the Spanish redoubts. " Another action was fought on the 17th, of which we subjoin the Moorish account. The Spanish report has not yet been received :—' The Spaniards, who had during the preceding night occupied Fneedak in force, were attacke soon after day break by the Kaid Ben Ouda (who had sworn that he would this day retrieve the defeat he suffered with his cavalry on the 15th) at the head of 5,000 men, of whom 500 - were horsemen. Exposed 'to a galling lire of shot and shell from the Spanish steamers that accompanied the expedition, the Kaid fell upon the enemy, and atter a three hours' combat succeeded in driving him back upon Hamar,' the boundary of the Spanish Camp on the Tetuan side. Here the fight continued till sunset, when the contending parties retired quietly to their respective positions. As a diversion, an attack was made by 3,000 mountaineers, under Kaid Abbas Emkished, on the Spanish right Lt Jama Burbash. The Moors gave their loss on the 17th as 19 killed and 50 wounded.' From this account we perceive that the Spanish army is operating; in the direction of Tetuan. The actions both of the 12th and 17th would seem to prove that 'Marshal O'Donnell intends to occupy. Fneedak, and we are anxious to receive the Spanish account of the affair of the 17th, in order to learn whether the Spanish force has established itself at that point." We take the folloWing remarks on the tactics of the Moorish forces, and the relative capabilities of the rival armies, from the Chronicle of the 17th ult.:— " The conflicts that have taken place before Ceuta since the Spanish army landed have been numerous, but so similar in their general character that we are now able totform a toler ably clear idea of the na ' time of the warfar e the §panish invading army will have to encounter. The Moorish tactics consist simply in mustering in large masses under cover of the rocks and woods that screen them from obser vation, making a rush upon what appears a weak or vulnerable point of their enemy ; and, if they are not driVen . bra, but succeed in surprising and cutting up a detachment, they retreat to their moun tain fastnesses with the booty they can lay their hands on. Private letters from the Spanish camp fully admit the reckless bravery with which the Moors rush up to the very muzzles of their l iguns ; and, indeed, the very fact that they still persist in taking the initiative by attacking the Spanish army which occupies a strong position, covered by a chain of redoubts, armed with the rifled ordnance, shows that their valour is far ahead of their pru dence. Such attacks can only have one result, — the repulse of the Moorish forces with greater loss than they can hope to inflict on . their enemies. At the same time the casualties inflicted on the Spanish army, though unimportant in each particular com bat, become serious in the aggregate, from the fre quency of the assaults. We may expect that the Moors will gradually desist from their attacks on an intrenched position whero the terms on which they fight are becoming daily more unequal by the completion and more perfect armament of the Spanish works. " The Spanish troops, though chiefly composed of young soldiers, are described as having been from the first remarkably steady in the presenco of the enemy, whose mode of attack was both novel and - fierce. The strangeness is daily wear ing off, and the superiority the Spanish soldier derives from discipline and more effective arms must continually increase. Tho Moors, at least, the irregulars who have been hitherto engaged, have no bayonets to their firelocks, and consequently, though individually brave they never stand a charge. Indtel, we are told they at once recogniAr the Spanish bugle-call for the charge, and when they hear:it face about and make off. The Spaniards can thus always clear their front by a charge, though they cannot succeed in closing with their enemy. " We may expect, therefore, that the Moorish forces will never meet the Spanish in a general action. If the ability of the Moorish commanders is equal to the bravery of their men, they will not be induced to offer battle unless in circumstances that countervail the superior discipline and i;Cii; of European troops. Though inferior in organisa tion, the Moors can, however, oppose to an invading army a resistance of the most formidable character. In a country where every man can use a gun, and has a natural talent for guerilla warfare, the casual ties caused by general actions form the smallest portion of the losses sustained by an invading force. The experience of the Peninsular War of Indepen dence on this point must•be fresh in the memorfof the Spinish nation. I n th a t war th e losses the guerillas inflicted on the French army by intercept ing its convoys, interrupting its communications, and, falling on detaeliments, exceeded the casualties occurring in battles between the regular crudes." 2 lIE NA V A correspondence has taken place between the Admiralty and Admiral W. Bowles, C. 8., Com mander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, relative to the papers which have been published in connection with the case of the Princess Royal. In answer to questions from the Admiralty, Admiral Bowles has stated that those papers were published with his sanction, and he at the same time tendered his re signation in case their Lordships disapproved the publication. The gallant Admiral's resignation has been attepted by their Lordships, and it is pro bable that Admiral Bowles will be relicYed from his command at Portsmouth on the Ist of March next. The magnificent three-decker the Howe, pierced for 121 guns, now in course of construction in Pem broke Dockyard, is so nearly completed that she will be ready by March next, and will be launched in the early part of the spring. The following are the chief dimensions of this first-rate, which is the largest vessel of her rating in the navy—viz. Length over all, 300 ft ; ditto between perpendicu lars, 260 ft ; ditto of keel for tonnage, 229 ft ; breadth, extreme, 61ft ; ditto for tonnage, 6011 2in ; ditto moulded, 5911 4in ; burden in tons, 4,236. he Howe is the same length as the Victoria, re cently launched at Portsmouth, but is of greater beam, and is also of heavier burden by 110 tons thin the Victoria. The Queen Charlotte, commissioned at Ports mouth by Captain R. S. Hewlett, C. 8., as gunnery ship at the port, will in future bear the name of the Excellent., and the ship that has borne that name for so many years will, it is expected, be broken up. The same course was followed with this latter ves sel when she became gunnery ship at the port, her name having been previous to that time the Boyne. The following named ships were yesterday char tered by the War Department to receive military stores :—the Young Marquis, the Storm Nymph, the May Sprout, the Cherub, and the Iris; the Llewellyn and Jabez ; the Palestine, for Barbadoes ; and the Biton. The screw steam transport Sir William Peel, having shipped a complete battery of 9-pounder brass guns and 200 tons of war stores at Woolwich, for China, yesterday proceeded to Deptford to complete with Tower stores, &c. The steam sloop Hydra, 6, Commander Hamilton, at Plymouth, is shipping stores and provisions for North America and the West Indies. She will pro bably convey some artisans with their families to Bermuda, for service in the dockyard there. The steam tender Avon, G. bay, master, was under orders to leave Plymouth yesterday (Mon day) for Pembroke, with Mr. Paull, assistant mas ter attendant, and a party of riggers and seamen, 30 in all (from the Royal Adelaide), who will navi gate the screw steam sloop Espoir, 5, to Plymouth. The Ardent, 3, Commander Parish, at Plymouth, having been repaired, will proceed shortly to South America. A dismasted Danish schooner, coal-laden, having sought refuge in Plymouth Sound on Sunday morn ing, the Royal Albert signalled Port Admiral Sir B. Reynolds, who instantly ordered steam to be got up on board the l^lj dra. Meantime the Royal Albert's launch went into Cawsand Bay to.the dis abled vessel, and she ultimately obtained shelter in Catwater. Her Majesty's steam storeship Himalaya, Capt. John Seccombe, yesterday commenced preparations for the embarkation of the Armstrong guns and batteries, &c., some time under orders for China. According to present arrangements her powerful cargo of men and stores will be conveyed from Woolwich to Purfleet, where she has been moored since Friday last, from the presumption that her progress further up the river might be attended with danger, and where it is at present arranged that . all her cargo is to be taken in. The entire cargo is stated to be between 2,000 and 3,000 tons. The Himalaya is ordered to be in readiness for sea on or about the 15th inst. Letters complaining of the trying position in which they were recently pkced have reached Plymouth from some of the crew-Of the Himalaya. Th e m en complain that they were detained for eight days idle in the Sound within sight of thei r h om e s , w h er e their families had to "enjoy" Christmas separated from them, be cause the ship was under what is termed " sailing orders" for a foreign port. A batch of 40 labourers taken on at the dock yard, Woolwich, for a survey of the stores on Mr. Pier's assumption of his new appointment as Store keeper in July last, were yesterday discharged, the survey having been completed. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty E. S. Sotheby, C. 8., to PRICE P. STAMPED, P. I the Conqueror, vice - Capt. Willcox, who has been superseded at his own request ; Commander P. De Saumarez to the Dasher, vice Commander More, whose, period of service has expired; J,olt,Moody Smith, promoted to be chief engineer; George J. Starr to the Nile; Frederick O. L. Patch, assist.- paymaster, to the Nile; Henry C. T. Medder and W. H. Martin, cierks, to the Nile; and Thos. For -der, assist.-clerk, to the Nile. TILE AR31.1% From intelligence which has been received at Chatham from the surveying and exploring expe dition of the Royal Engineers despatched some time since to liritish . Columbia, to be employed in sur veying and engineering operations in that colony, the whole of the officers and men ai-e in excellent health, and busily employed in the object for which the expedition left England. The working parties are occupied chiefly in opening up roads in the best parts of' the country, erecting houses and buildings, and felling and preparing timber. Considering the large body of men composing the expedition, the party behaves exceedingly well, and complaints are almost unknown. At the dare of the last despatch a numerous party were employed in the erection of a theatre at their head-quarters, Queensborough, for the amusement of the officers and men, all of whom exhibit a great taste for theatrical represen tations. The officers and men forming the survey ing portion of the expedition have pushed forward into the interior, where they have to undergo numerous hardships and enjoy a rough life. Each man is armed with a six-barrelled revolver in case of being attacked. They have completed the survey of a considerable portion of the Oregon boundary. The climate is described as exceedingly healthy, very similar to that of England, without its draw backs. The scenery throughout nearly the entire district is spoken of as being of the most romantic character. The men subsist chiefly on game, which is very abundant. Notwithstanding that every thing is exceedingly dear,:most of the men have contrived to save some money, many of them lay ing by £BO or £lOO per annum, considerable sums having been made by them purchasing parcels of ground and reselling them a t l arge prots. Information has been received at the invalid depot, Chatham, that several ships are now on their passage home from India with sick and wounded and discharged troops. The Durham Militia Artillery are under orders to remove on the 10th inst. from Fort Gomer to the Isle of Wight. On the 11th inst. one wing will proceed on duty to detached forts. The head-quar ters to be at Parkhurst. The Waterford Militia Artillery will remove from Haslar and occupy quarters vacated by the Durham. The Tipperary Militia Artillery will remove from detached forts in the Isle of Wight, and occupy quarters vacated by the quarters. MR. CAR DWRF.L AND NIS CON- STITUENTS. Last night the Ancient Order of Druids of Ox ford held their usual annual festival in the Town Hall of that city. It is the castoin for the members for the city to attend these dinners, and embrace the opportunity they afford of addressing their con stituents on the state of public :affairs apropos of the opening year. The present occasion was no excep tion to the established rule. The Right Hon. F. Cardwell came from Ireland to be present at the festival, and Mr. Langston, M.P., his colleague, as well as Mr. Neate and Mr. Sergeant Gaselee, both of whom have stood as candidates for the represen tation of Oxford. The company, which was up wards of 300 in number, also included the Mayor and many other members of the local magistracy and corporatio n . M r . H enry C arter, the head of the Oxford or 59th Lodge of Druids, presided. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts having been duly honoured, The CHAIRMAN, in eulogistic terms, gave the health of " The Members for the City." The toast was drunk with cordiality. Mr. LANGSTON, as the senior member for the city, had the precedence in responding. Having ex pressed his thanks for the compliment which Itatt: been paid to him and to his hon. colleague, the hon gentleman remarked that, whether the projected continental Congress took place or not—and the Times seemed to suggest the possibility that it might , never come off after all—he was sure it was the de. sire of every Englishman that Italy should be free. He congratulated the country on the fact that in the present year it would experience a relief from its burdens to the extent of nearly £4,000,000 ster ling. Indeed, the Chancellor of the Exchequer had once led them to expect that they might see the end of the income-tax altogether this year. For his o ism part, however, ho had no confident anticipa tion that he would ever live to witness the total abolition of that impost. (A laugh.) Still he would be glad to see even a part of it remitted. Referring to the Volunteer movement, which he regarded as one of the most important events in the year that had just closed, he traced its origin to the feeling which had recently been brought home to English men, that if they wished to be secure in their free dom they must not refuse to help themselves. We had seen in the late Italian campaign what gigan tic efforts a'neighbouring potentate, at the head of a great military nation, was able to make at any moment. And although from the conversation which had recently been reported in the Times as having passed between a very distinguished per sonage in France and an Englishman, who were supposed to be the French Emperor and Mr. Cob den, that great potentate might not have any pre sent cause of quarrel with England, yet it would not do for us to make sure that a ground of difference would not any day arise. (Cheers.) Passing to the subjects likely to engage the attention of the legis lature during the ensuing session, the hon. gentle. man adverted to Parliamentary reform, observing that all parties were now agreed on the necessity of settling this question. The country had been scandalised by the recent electioneering disclosures, and it was manifest from the accounts which had reached the public that the corruption was pretty equally practised on both sides. The existing law for the prevention of these evils had clearly failed, and ought to be effectually amended. W e had a talented Ministry now in power, which would do a great public service if it turned its earnest atten tion to the removal of this plague spot upon our representative system, and succeeded in achieving a task which had hitherto baffled the skill of pre ceding Governments. (Hear, hear.) Mr. CARDWELL, on rising to respond, was re ceived with loud cheers. He said,—Gentlemen, I return to your chairman my sincere thanks for the kind manner in which he was pleased to speak of me, and to all of you for the kind reception you were pleased to give to the mention of my name. The chairman has alluded to the inconvenience to which he supposed your members might be put in attending this festival. Gentlemen, I agree with my hon. friend and colleague that with the free in stitutions under which it is our happiness to live there is no place where the representative of a free constituency should more rejoice to be present than at these large assemblages of those who return him to Parliament, and enable him to render any ser vice in his power to his country. My hon. friend and colleague has entered upon that review of the past, and those anticipations of the opening year in which it is our custom to indulge on these occasions. In most of his remarks I cordially concur. The great event of last year, no doubt, was that conflict of two great Powers on the plains of Italy which has left behind it for solution questions of unparalleled im portance. In the first place, that conflict was sig nalised by events which will ever render it memor able in history. Like things modern as contrasted with things of ancient date, it was gigantic in its scale and brief in its duration. The slaughter was counted by tens of thousands, although the succes sive stages of the struggle were measured but by weeks. It has left behind it two great questions, the one political, the other practical, and having a more immediate bearing on our own interests. In that great political question, the future of Italy, we have, perhaps, no direct and individual concern. But, gentlemen, we have this feeling wherever the human intellect is quickened by exertion and stimulated by industry—wherever there is com merce, wherever there is liberty, there we kn ow there will be sympathy with England. (Cheers.) And accordingly we cannot be indifferent to the future fate of Italy. We cannot but feel our pulses throb with sympathy for the land of Dante and Galileo ; we cannot but desire to see her material prosperity advance, her social progress facilitated, and Italy herself re3uming an honourable place in the great confederation of European nations. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, the other question at which I have hinted is more practical, because it has a closer relation to ourselves. I allude to the great subject of our national defence. My hon. colleague has indicated the dangers which may possibly as sail us. For my part, I feel no apprehension of any present danger from any quarter whatsoever. (Loud cheers.) I believe that we enjoy a good under standing with all the nations of the world, and that our position is one not only of peace, but of . „.„ security. (Renewed cheers.) Rut i ' e 4. 2/ son why we sh ou ld b e bli nd to the ar.s.; 2 „ perience, or d ea f t o t h e admonitions orvtitinip • C 1 drawn from the events as they pass before iare . . L 7 If we have seen that the armoury an 'whiCh /dna tions have relied up to the pre: eat period has be come entirely antiquated—if we - have found - that the march of improvement has ,not been limited to the arts of peace, but has also extended to the arts of.war, is it necessary' for this great country to be 'first and foremost in determining that on no sym pathy with foreign nations,.and on no good under standing with them, but on her own right arm and her own resources, she will at all - times denen4 fcr the maintenance - of the prosperity with which Pro vidence has endowed her? What, gentlemen, is the principle on which each of you pays the annual premium on the insurance of your houses Not be cause you believe that you will all be burnt out during the year on which you are entering. -You have no expectation or apprehension of that sort. But this you say--" 1 will not live that slavish life of continual anxiety. I will have calm assurance, I will have tranquil enjoyment : I will be master of myself and of my posses sions by placing myself superior to the risks of fate and fortune." That is your principle in private life. So, too, it is the true principle for this great empire to rest on her own resources, and to own no patron but herself. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, when I was a bey an American gentleman came over to this coun try who had invented a steam. gun. He thought he had discovered a machine by which he could discharge so many bullets in a minute that he could destroy a whole regiment almost the very moment it made its appearance on the field. The invention, however, Lited. But the name that its author gave it was the "pacificator," his reason for doing so being, as he said, that the possession of so formidable a weapon would render war for the future wholly impossible. (A•laugh.) Let us apply that reason ing •to our national preparati;;...... ..;,...Then we aro • undefended there may b e a temptation to assail us. - But when England has once assumed her panoply —when her army, her navy, and her other defences are in the state in which, by the exertions of the country and the wisdom of Parliament, they will speedily be placed —peace becomes a matter almost of necessity. (Cheers.) It is scarcely possible that our security should ever be put in hazard tor a mo ment. No doubt, as you have been told, the people of the United Kingdom have been contributing a large amount of income-tax, especially in the present half-year. My hon• collsauge, sanguine man, anti cipates that the day will soon come when the Government will be able entirely "to remove that.. impost. Mr. LANGSTON-0, I beg your pardon. I said I feared I should never live to see it removed. (A laugh.) Mr. CARDWELL—Then my hon. colleague and I share the same ankcipation. (Laughter.) What, however, I wisfld to say in passing was this—that the impost you fire now paying is a double impost, being a whole year's extra income-tax levied in a single half-year in order to defray the whole expense of your preparations. I hope that in future every year and every half year will bear its own burdens, and that no half year will, like the present one, have to bear the charge of the entire year. When, however, you cordially and cheerfully submit to the taxation ne cessary to place the defences of the country in the state which they are now rapidly assuming you do it, not from distrust, timidity, or panic ; 3ou are not goaded by any guilty ambition—you desire to put your institutions and your national blessings in that position of independent safety to which every subject of Queen Victoria is entitled— " To guard what art and industry have won, For Freedom claims him for her first=born son." 'Cheers,) Gentlemen, since I was last among vou have spent the whole of my time in administer ing the Government of certainly not the; least in :cresting portion of her Majesty's dominions, And I am anxious to state to you in a few words the feelings with which I again visited the sister island. I found, in the first place, that her com munications are multiplied, that she is traversed by railways in general superior to ours, uniting the products of the soil with the markets of commerce, and tending to promote objects ache utmost social as well as material advantage. I found her agri cultural prosperity quickened, her commercial energy animated and excited, her crime diminished; her poor rates—lately so heavy—falling to the lowest amount ; I found, above all, a universal thirst for education, and the means of gratifying it calculated to raise the character of her people, and to elevate the whole tone, both of the country and its Government. I shall not conceal from you, gentlemen, there are difficulties connected with the Government of Ireland of a nature wholly different from those with which you are acquainted; but I would venture in addressing this large assemblage of Englishmen to suggest that the golden rule by which we govern ourselves in private life is worthy sof application to great affairs of public and political concern—that we should not only do to others as we wish others to do to us, hut that in forming our judgments of others - and their affairs we should en deavour to place ourselves in their position and strive to get if possible at the point of view from which they naturally look at those affairs. It is by cultivating such sentiments on this side of the water towards Ireland that we shall best encourage in her people the habit which successive Governments, of whatever party, have la bourod, not without success, to encourage among them—viz. that of regardi ng; all Imperial questions in th e li g ht in which we our selves regard them; and then by the joint action of the two nations we should become one united people, the strength of the British Government, and the support of its honed: (Cheers.) Gentlemen, in the course of the year which has just dawned upon us we shall have to deal with the great question of reform. I know you think that, in approaching that subject, we shall have to navigate a dangerous channel, that we shall have to thread our way among many shoals and sunken rocks. But we shall at least have this advantage, that the Channel has been sounded by the mariners who have pre ceded us. Some of its hearings are alreaOy known to us, and the rock on which a previous navigator foundered will not be that on which his successors will split. I believe, therefore, that we approach the subject with great advantages. I believe there is in the country, irrespective of party, a sincere and general desire that this question should now be sa tisfactorily set at rest. As my hon. colleague has told you, all parties in the State are now pledged to the proposition that there , shall be some reform ' of our representative system—that there shall be some transfer of.power and some extension of the franchise.' (Cheers.) No doubt in the particular propo sals that we shall make we mayineet with difficulties and may be involved in conflicts. But this 1 hope, that if the measure be in itself a fair, a wise, and righteous measure, it will receive such un amount of public support as was certainly not accorded to . such a project in the days of the agitation on the first Reform Bill, when this question was the oeca -sion of much more party strife and general excite ment than it is likely to produce in the compara tively temperate times in which we have the hap piness to live. (Cheers.) I cannot therefore but trust that the year on which we are entering will see a measure of reform satisfactory to you and to the public at large, not only introduced but carried —a measure calculated to widen the basis and strengthen the fabric of our institutions, and to ren der permanent the settlement which it will be the medium of effecting. (Cheers.) My hon. friend has reminded you of the disclosures which have recently been made in certain constituencies, and has ex pressed a hope that we shall be able entirely topre vent corruption. Now, if I were to put on the cap of Fortunatus and to indulge in wishes, I know of no man who would entertain that desire more fer vently and sincerely than myself. lam quite sure that any measure which can be suggested, either by ourselves or byothers likelyto secure that desirable result we shall be most happy to forward. (A Voice —" The Ballot.") But, after all, gentlemen, I am afraid there will inevitably cling so much of human imperfections to institutions of our times that pro bably some leaven of corruption will survive the most effectual of our reforms. My hon. friend says le does not expect to see the termination of the in come-tax. I tear he must also be content to survive even although perfect purity shall not, by the pre sent er indeed, by any succeeding Government, be introduced into all popular elections. (A laugh.) Gentlemen, we have un d erta k en to reform Par liament, and I trust we shall succeed in our task. We . shall also undertake to reform human nature as soon as we see our way to its practical accomplishment. (Laughter.) But lam averse to making promises to you unless there is some pros pect of their immediate or, at least, of their speedy fulfilment. (Cheers.) The right hon. gentleman concluded by thanking the electors of Oxford for the uniform kindness and consideration he had ex perienced at their hands, and by wishing each and all of them every happiness in the year which had just opened. .The remaining toasts were of a purely local character. - IMMIGRATION TO VICTORIA.—.The Government Immigration Agent in Victoria, in his annual report to the Colonial Government, says that a very urgent and increas ing demand e;igg throughout the colony for single femalo servants, and eWloyment could readily be found for at least 300 monthly. The following are the current rates of wages : —Cooks and laundresses, £3O to X,V) per annum ; housemaids, £25 to £3O; ganeral servants, £25 to 430 ; nursemaids, £2O to £25; but really ~killed and tried ser vants readily obtain much higher wages. The class most in requisition are good farm men servants, who can make themselves generally useful, and female domestic servants of every description. The latter must be an increasing re quirement, from, the fact of se many who yearly marry aLd become themselves employers. other 48s ; ng is ,0 30a —s to r, 3Ss per a fair cheat rade. ferior and a It the Next Mail due. xn. 10 ►u. 4 ?b.
