TILE WAR IN ITALY. (Jlrom the Times.) We cannot repeat every morning that Italy is a peninsula, shaped like a boot, surrounded by the Alps and the Medi terranean Sea, and divided by the Apennines ; but it is necessary in this early stage of warlike operations to supply almost ecpiAlly rudimentary information when we attempt to carry the ordinary reader with us while tracking the course of the invaders of Piedmont. We left the Austrians yesterday divided into two bodies, one of which was lost to view among the northern highlands, and the other and more considerable &tiny was advancing very slowly in the low and level country which lies between the Northern and Southevinges. The general expectation h'id been that this 06y would follow the northern bank of the Po, and thus arrive at Turin. But the Po washes the declivities of these southern highlands, among and behind which lie the three principal fortresses of the Sardinian territory—Genoa, far down south upon the sea coast ; Alessandria, upon a southern tributary to the Po, and only a few miles distant from the southern bank of that principal river; and Casale, a fortress which lies upon that southern bank, and about t wen ty miles distant from the point where the Po in its winding approaches nearest to Alessandria. The shape of the little district wherein the interest of the war for the moment centres may be rudely described as a rectangular triangle. There is a road which passes from the fortress of Alessandria to that of Casale, and at the centre of that road, in a little town upon a lofty eminence called St. Salvador, the King of Sardinia has set up his head-quarters. The river Po and the river Tanaro form the two sides to which this road is the base. The Austrian army manceuvring on the other side of the Po leaves it uncertain whether its intention is to cross the river and attack the fortresses or to move on upon Turin. Having thrown a body of troops across at Cambio, which is the nearest point to Alessan dria' they pushed their vanguard to Sala, which is on the road to Alessandria, and at the same time, 20 miles further up the river, and close to the fortress of Casale, they also attempted to cross under cover of a continuous cannonade. Here, however, the passage was disputed, some casualties occurred, the operation was not effected, and the troops already pushed over at Cambio were withdrawn. Still, however, the Austrian divisions threaten to force the river, and the point chiefly indicated is the little town of Frassinetto, at a very short distance from the fortress of Casale. This, therefore, is the present position :—The Sardinian army occupies the base, with its right wing rest inr, upon Alessandria, and with its left wing reaching to Casale ; while the Austrians are manoeuvring u p on th e Po, and attempting, or pretending to attempt, to force a pas- sage. The French boast that they have already 70,000 men in Sardinia, and Marshal Baraguay D'Hilliers, from his head quarters at Genoa, is issuing addresses to his army, remind ing them of the campaigns of 1796 and 1800, and faintly echoing the Orders of the Day of the old Napoleon, who proposed to his troops, as a reward equal to all their labours, that each should be pointed at, on his return to France, with the respectful designation—" Ire was of the Army of Italy." It is too late now, with 70,000 Frenchmen in the country, and railway communications open between Genoa, Alessandria, and Turin, to attempt that rush upon the Sardinian capital, for which Europe had given credit to Austria as the object of her sudden hostilities. The Aus trians themselves, if we may trust the meagre accounts that reach us, are very much of this opinion. They complain bitterly of the meddling of the diplomatists in delaying the commencement of hostilities beyond that 26th of April which had been fixed as the day of the invasion, and they declare that the two or three days thus gained by France and Sardinia will cost Austria thousands of men and millions of florins. The sudden rains, added to the artificial inundations for which the rice-fields of this watery plain offer opportunities that have not been neglected, naturally increase the difficulties of an invader who seeks to advance through an alluvial district, where the country is intersected by innumerable streams, and where the roads are easily destructible. If to this we must add, as some of the Continental newspapers affirm, that the old system of receiving military instructions from Vienna, which pro duced the disasters of 1796, is still' adhered to—if General Hess at Vienna controls and varies the orders given by :General Gyulia in Piedmont, the ancient blunders of the Aulic Council may possibly be re-enacted, and we have in that case no right to be surprised that the progress of the Austrians is so slow and that their present position so un promising. We have yet to see, however, if the Austrians have not changed since the time of Wurmser, whether the French have retained the traditions of the First Napoleon. If we are to judge of the present war by the old principles of strategy, and if we are to expect none of those daring movements by which Napoleon I. shattered to pieces four Austrian armies and conquered Piedmont and Lombardy in the space of six weeks, we must be content to watch a pro crastinated campaign of many marches and counter marches, and, perhaps, little decisive fighting. The Aus trians will, under such a supposition, hesitate to advance upon Turin, for fear of the fortresses on their flank, and the French will hesitate to advance upon the Austrians, lest they, in their turn, should be assailed in flank by the Austrian force at Pavia and Piacenza. It is hard to cal culate what may be the moves in a game of chess so intri cate as this may then become, but it would not be very im possible that such a course of tactics would lead to a second encounter in that plain close by the walls of Alessandria, which is already so known to history as the Plain of Marengo. The invader has lost his opportunity of surprise; but it is not yet proved that Baragnay_ D'Hilliers is capable, according to the old Napoleonic tactics, of disconcerting the Austrian system of concentric attacks by destroy ing in detail the separated columns. Apart, however, from that little spot in Piedmont, where the aspect of war is most threatening, the military counsels of Austria do not seem to be guided by absolute wisdom. Nothing can well be imagined more rash or ill judged than the recent measure o f th row i ng troops and suppliesinto Ancona, a fortress open to the sea on the eastern coast of Italy, 200 miles from the nearest Austrian place of strength, with no other means of communication but a coast road liable to be interrupted by any enemy who is master of the sea, and having at its back a hostile popu lation. Unless Austria has a respectable navy in some un discovered port, and intends to contend the open Adriatic with France, it would seem that she has merely put troops into Ancona to give a little amusement to the French navy, and to enable France to inflict upon her a certain humilia tion. It is early days yet, and a battle may possibly change all things, but, as far as Austria has yet shown herself, her generals have not come up to what Europe expected from her haughty bearing and her military preparations. (From the Daily _Yews.) The course pursued by the J'imes makes us doubt in what light we ought to regard the most alarming story it published last week. Hitherto we have examined its au thority and discussed its probability as we would any other statement offered as part of the current history of the times. But the persistence with which our contemporary clings to it, if we understand him, or at least to its remains, after it has received - every refutation of which it is capable, compels us to doubt whether we should have accepted it in that character. The passion with which it is defended bids us regard it rather as an article of faith, proposed not for ex amination but for belief. Or is it a weapon of offence, to be employed as occasion may serve against an English Minister or a foreign Sovereign ? If it is a mystery we will not pursue it with an offensive scepticism—if it is a sword, we- ask not for its surrender ; but if a place is claimed for it among the facts of the day we can only deal with it upon the ordinary rules of evidence. In justification of its course, the Times, in the article it published yesterday, refers to the authority upon which it made its alarming statements and their antecedent probabilities. First as to the autho rity. We read, " We published on the same morning tele grams from Berlin and Vienna announcing that an alliance had been formed between Russia and France hostile to Austria, and were enabled, from authority which would be recognised as excellent if we were at liberty to produce it, to give some details of the Treaty or understanding between the two Powers." On this we beg to observe that the fore going statement refers to two separate days. The Times raised its alarm on Wednesday morning, when the only facts it was able to publish were those contained in two telegrams. That from Vienna commenced, " The Russians here state," &c., a form of words by which the correspon dent cautiously avoided committing himself to the truth of what followed. The other, from Berlin, was sent as an ab stract of a statement which had appeared in one of the local papers of no especial authority, and seems to have been thought unworthy of notice by the correspondent of our contemporary in the Prussian capital, as it was furnished through another channel. No one can complain of the Times forpublishing these telegrams, for the public, which is con cerned in knowing what is believed in foreign capitals, could judge for itself how much weight ought to be attached to the authority on which they were given. But our contem porary, on Wednesday, twenty-f our h ours before he was in a position to support the credit of these most dubious tele grams by any other statements, unreservedly, eagerly, and irrevocably committed himself to the most alarming portions of his announcement. Not stopping there, he employed his pen to heighten and aggravate its effects, describing it "a s most startling intelligence," declaring that " everything is changed," that Austria had after all some justification for what otherwise seemed unaccountable precipitancy, and In timating that the Rhine and the East, and England herself, were menaced in the coming war. Such were the frail foundations of the alarming announce ment of Wednesday week. By the following day the " autho rity which would be recognised as excellent," were the Times at liberty to produce hi m , had come up. We should think our contemporary expected him, at all events he had invited,we may say tempted him. On Thursday, then, there were— not one but—two treaties between France and Russia, the armies and navies of the two great aggressive powers of the world were united for a common object, and Russia was to join France in a war upon Austria within fifteen days. As the Times believed this information it published it, arid while bespeaking for it calm attention exhausted every artifice of rhetoric to influence the public mind: Spells were thrown into the air. Before the reader was permitted to know what had happened, be was informed that it was the most important event in the experience of this genera tion, something therefore worse than the Indian mutiny or the Crittreairicvar. Every Englishman was told that he and his Gcevernment had been duped, and was invited to , contemplate himself as the object of the closest possible con federacy between the two great despots of the world, united in grim strength, and masters of our fate. He roust have been a very wise or a very stupid man who, reading the Times that morning without the corrective of sound infor mation, did not feel himself roused to indignation at the picture which had been set before him. Happily the cor rective was siA delayed. The exaggeration was exposed by the press, and, one of our first statesmen, in the heart of the City of London, publicly expressed his disbelief in the story. The Rflsstan Government was interrogated, and gave it a pointed denial ; and the Chancellor of the Exche quer showed that the only part of it that was true, and which in no way concerned us, was voluntarily communi cated to our Government by France some time ago. Since then the Russian Government has published a solemn de claration, not only " That there exists no treaty of alliance, offensive and defensive, between Russia and any other power wh atever," but that " the Emperor retains in the present conjuncture entire liberty of action." And how does the Tones meet these solemn assertions made under the highest responsibility ? It appeals to some secret authority, and vehemently reproach -s those win have ema nc i pa t e d the. public from a cruel delusion. We too have our re- ' ticences. Last week, when we affirmed the non-existence of the treaties mentioned the Tiwe- we assume all the responsibility of the by ' u - er , e will now d say that if we were at liberty to name the authority upon which we Made it, the world would acknowledge that it could not be ignorant, and would be the last to deceive. The only argu ment now loft to the Times i support of its original asser tion is, that since the engagement between Russia and France cannot be produced, anybody may describe it accord ing to his own fancy. The pleading against R uss i a because that Power increases its forces on the Austrian frontier, we have replied to by anticipation. The question was, how ever, so well discussed last Saturday in th e Economist, that 1 we refer to an article on that subject which we republish 1 in the present impression. There can be not tbel east doubt that Ilussia acts an unfriendly though not illegal part towards Austria, in assembling a corps d'arme e on her frontl er ; but there is nothing unfriendly to us in this If pe we Te the allies of Austria in this war there would be some reason for us to complain ; but as we neither are, nor mean to become her allies, we may reasonably remain tranquil. We cannot but observe again, that it is the constant asso ciation, sometimes expressed, sometimes tacit, of the cause of Austria and England in the columns of the Times, which is at the bottom of this outcry. As soon as Austria seemed to be menaced by Russia, our contemporary cried out as if the apple of our eye were in danger, and even yesterday he connected her with us in the most gratuitous manner. As long, however, as the British public professes neutrality it ought to get the benefit of that position. Austria having foolishly persuaded herself that because a few lords avowed their sym pathies with her she could command the English alliance, now takes a horrible revenge for her disap pointment by confounding us with false reports. This very story has already cost us more millions than we paid her as subsidies in any year during the war. Every workman has had to pay the fine in the shape of increased price for his bread and other prime necessaries of life. It wean be cheaper to call upon Count Apponyi to state for what sum his Government will consent to exempt us from these grave alarms which, like grenades suddenly thrown into our Exchanges, banks, and counting-houses, cause un heard of ruin and desolation and to pay down the money. We cannot contend with Austria in this warfare of blind rumours and dark surmises. THE NAVY. Captain Brown, R.N., Register-General of Seamen, arrived at Liverpool yesterday (Friday), bearing with him copies of her Majesty's prdclamation in connection with the manning of the navy. During the day he called upon seve ral of the leading shipowners, to whom he explained his views on the subject, and received promises of encourage ment. l'here are very few sailors, comparatively speaking, in the port at present, owing to the contrary winds which prevail, and therefore it has been thought advisable to post pone any public demonstration. The Urgent, screw steam troopship, Commander Hire, will embark this morning the Ist division of the 100th (Prince of Wales's Royal Canadian) Regiment, at Ports mouth, for Gibraltar, consisting of 2 field officers, 6 captains, 12 subalterns, 5 staff, 6 officers' wives, 13 children, and 3 female servants, 29 sergeants, 14 drummers, 498 rank and file, 45 soldiers' wives, 55 children, and 3 horses, the whole under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel G. De Rotten - burg, C.B. The Urgent is expected to proceed to sea about 2 p.m. this day. The 2d division of the 100th (Prince of Wales's Royal Canadian) Regiment, remaining for em barkation for Gibraltar, consists of 1 field officer, 4 captains, 7 subalterns, 5 staff, 25 sergeants, 7 drummers, and 324 rank and file. _ _ _ _ The Etna, screw steamship, was ordered to embarkyester day at Liverpool 3 officers and 21 men of the 2d battalion 22d Foot, and 5 officers, 32 men, and 4 women of the Ist battalion 21st Regiment. She will afterwards proceed direct to Portsmouth, where she will embark for Malta, in addition to the troops received on board at Liverpool, the following officers, troops, &c. :—From Aldarshott, 2d battalion 22d Foot, 3 field officers, 34 other officers,and 788 men, 5 officers' wives, 6 children, and servants, 57 soldiers' wives, 60 children, and 3 horses; from Woolwich, Royal Artillery, 4 officers, 129 men, 9 women, and 21 children ; from !;hat ham Royal Engineers, 4 officers, 134 men, 8 women, and 16 children, 2 officers' wives, 7 children, and 2 servants ; from Pembroke, 2d battalion 15th Foot, 1 officer, 40 men, 4 women, and 4 children ; from Winchester, 4th battalion Rifle rigade, 1 officer, 101 men, and 1 woman, forming a total of 55 officers, 1,24.5 men, 7 officers' wives, 13 children, and 6 servants, 83 soldiers' wives, 101 children, and 3 horses. The Rhadamanthus steam transport arrived at Ports • mouth yesterday from Devonport, to land some boats, arm chests, &c. The Royal Sovereign, 131, screw steamship, at Ports mouth, was placed in No. 7 dock yesterday. The Odin, 17, paddlewheel steam frigate, and the Bull dog, 6, paddle steam sloop, were both docked yesterday at Portsmouth, the former in No. 2 and the latter in No. 5 dock. The screw steamship Algiers, 91, Captain G. D. O'Cal laghan, left Cawsand Bay, Plymouth, en Thursday, for Portland. The screw steam frigate Topaze, 51, was hauled off on Thursday from the dockyard at Devonport to the stream moorings. The screw steam sloop Brisk, 16, the Intrepid, 6, and the Gladiator have been docked at Keyham yard. The two former have been put in commission, and it is expected similar instructions will follow for the Gladiator. The Brisk is to have a complement of 180 men. The screw steamship James Watt, 91, Captain E. Codd, had her compasses adjusted at Plymouth on Thursday. Of the 300 shipwrights ordered to be entered on the 29th of April at Devonport Dockyard, about 100 are entered. The men work from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Two of the docks at Keyham are constantly occupied ; the third, a deep dock, is kept free, according to Admiralty order, for any con tingency. The Cambridge, gunnery ship, Captain Jerningham, was paid wages on Thursday. The Falcon, Flying Fish, and Pioneer, screw dispatch tun vessels, have hoisted pendants at Portsmouth. The Hannibal is ordered to prepare for sea, and will sail in company with the Algiers, Cressy, James Watt, and two other liners, for the Meditenanean. The gigantic steam crane at the Portsmouth Dockyard was very severely tested yesterday by the slinging of a quantity of pig-iron ballast, exceeding 60 tons. The crane was worked by an 8-horse power engine, the invention of Mr. Taylor, the crane by Messrs. Browne. The deflection repre sented 5 inches. After the weight was released it sprung back to s+, leaving the half-inch to account for the enormous strain. The test was considered to be highly satisfactory. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty : Masters—Henry J. Ellis (additional) to the Minotaur; Timothy W. Sulivan to the Hero ; Vincent Williams to the Hastings ; W. W. Riddle (additional) to the Asia, for Agamemnon. Surgeons—L. J. Monteith, to the Falcon; W. T. Billings, to the Brisk ; D. T. B. Purchas, to the Flying Fish ; It. J. Squire, to the Intrepid; W. F. Mac Clinton, to the Pioneer; Dr. Richard Picken, to the Banshee. "The Lords of the Admiralty are pleased to signify that the indulgence of a free discharge as well as discharge by purchase from the Royal Marines is to be suspended until further orders. The standard for recruits is ordered to be reduced to 5 feet 4 inches for growing lads from 16 to 20 years of age, and 5 feet 41 inches for men from 20 to 30 years of age. Circumference of chest to be as heretofore, and the present bounty to be increased £2, making the amount on and from this date £5, with a free kit. The distribution of levy money in other respects to remain as at present." " Commissions dated May 2, 1859, will be laid before the Queen appointing the following named gentlemen cadets to be Second Lieutenants in the corps of Royal Marines, viz. : Gentleman Cadet F. W. Gray to be Second Lieutenant, and appointed to the Portsmouth division; Gentleman Cadet E. H. Moore to be Second Lieutenant, and appointed to the Chatham division; Gentleman Cadet F. H. E. Owen to be Second Lieutenant, and appointed to the Portsmouth division ; Gentleman Cadet H. 11. Kelly to be Second Lieu• tenant, and appointed to the Portsmouth division ; Gentle man Cadet A. Donald to be Second Lieutenant, and ap pointed to the Portsmouth division ; Gentleman Cadet J. W. A. E. Lillicrap to be Second Lieutenant, and appointed to the Chatham division; Gentleman Cadet F.

Agassiz to be Second Lieutenant, and appointed to the Woolwich divi sion; Gentleman Cadet F. R. Beechey to be Second Lieu tenant, and appointed to the Plymouth division." The following promotions and appointments were like wise announced to have taken place in the corps, dated May 4, viz. : —First Lieutenant N. Macnamara, of the artillery companies, to be Captain, and appointed to Portsmouth, vice H. E. Delacombe, retired on full pay ; Second Lieu tenant C. C. Suther, of the artillery companies, to be First Lieutenant, and re-appointed, vice Macnamara, promoted. In consequence of the demand for the whole of the dis posable men of the Royal Marines for active service the detachment on guard duty, under the command of Captain Lewis, at Woolwich Dockyard, has been withdrawn, and in accordance with orders to that effect a body of the R divi sion of the metropolitan police, under the direction of Mr. Senior Inspector Forbes, has taken charge of the establish ment. THE ARMY. The following general orders relative to the augmentation of the corps of Royal Marines were yesterday promulgated at Woolwich : " Her Majesty, by Order in Council dated the 30th of April, 1859, has been pleased to direct that two lieut.-colo nels and 2,000 men are to be added to the present strength of the corps of Royal Marines. The re-distribution of the corps is therefore as follows :—viz., 112 divisional companies, each company consisting of one captain, two subalterns, 6 sergeants, 6 corporals, 3 drummers and buglers, and 116 privates—total 124 ; and 16 artillery companies, each company to consist of the Colonels-Commandant R.M., 1 captain, 4 subalterns, 11 sergeants, 9 corporals, 3 drummers and buglers, and 152 gunners—total, 188. Twc thirds of the aggregate number of subalterns to be First Lieutenants, and one-third to be Second Lieutenants. The staff to consist of one Deputy-Adjutant-General, 1 Assis tant-Adjutant-General, 4 Colonels Commandant, 5 Colonels Second Commandant, 21 Lieutenant-Colonels, being an in crease of 2 with reference to the increased strength and efficiency of the Artillery branch, 4 Paymasters, 4 Barrack masters, 4 Surgeons and Assistant -Surgeons, 1 Laboratory Instructor, 4 Gunnery Instructors, 9 Adjutants, 5 Lieu tenants and Quartermasters, 4 Quartermasters, 10 ser geants-major, 5 quartermaster-sergeants, _ 5 barrack-ser geants—total, 99, making the whole establishment -112 divisional companies . • .. 13,888 16 artillery companies 3,008 Staff .. • • • • • • • • • • 99 Total • • . • • . .. 16,995 .The eight new divisional companies thus added will be attached to the several divisions as follows : Chatham.

The companies of Royal Engineers nowat Chatham hav ing been considerably reduced, orders have been given for the whole of the recruits who have recently joined to be posted to the several companies, which will be thus aug mented to the number of about 400 men. Recruiting for this branch of the service is also to be carried on with in creased energy, in order to raise the corps to its required strength. COALS, &c.—The total quantity of coals, cinders, and culm exported from the United Kingdom to foreign countries and British settlements abroad in the year 1538 amounted to 6,529,483 tons, and the value thereof to £3,045,431. Of patent fuel 67,615 tons were exported, worth £13,313. France took 1,325,330 tons of our coal last year, being by far our largest customer for the c)mmodity, and 1,279,133 tons in 18.57. 26,756 tons of coal and 19,226 of patent fuel were brought into the port of London in the year 18.59. [ADVEILTISEMENT.j—HoIIoway's Pills and Ointinant.— Dyspepsia, Jaundice.—These complaints are the results of a disordered liver, which secretes bile - in quality or quan tity incapable of digesting the food. Digestion requlres a free flow of h ea lth y bil e; to ensure which Holloway's Pills and Ointment have longbeen famous for eclipsing every other medicine. Food, irregularity of living, climate, and other causes are constantly throwing the liver inte disorder; but that important organ can, auger all circumstances, soon be regulated and healthily adjusted by Holloway's Pills and Ointment, which act directly upon its vital secretion. The Ointment rubbed on the skin penetrates immediately to the liver, whose blood and nerves it rectifies, and exercises over it altogether the niost sa l u t ary i n fl uence w i thou t haras sing stomach or bowels. SITN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 7, 1859. MANNING TRE NAVY. (From the Newcastle Chronicle.) On Thursday afternoon, Captain Pim, R.N., commander of the Gorgon, which vessel will be shortly placed in the Tyne, met the Shields sailors in the long room of the Sailors' Home, North Shields, and addressed them on the present movement for manning the navy. The long room was densely crowded. There were several shipowners present, and Captain Pim was accompanied to the platform by Mr. Helmsley, Mr. Greenhow, and other gentlemen. Captain Pni said that the mayor would have presided had he not been unwell; and he would have to be both chairman and speaker himself. The reason why he had called them together was to point out the advantages of the navy to the sailors. North country sailors did not like to buy a pig in a poke. He was there to explain, and he hoped that some of the sailors would speak, and tell the Government what they wanted them to do for them, As he saw some shipowners present he would tell them that he had not come there to oppose their interests. He wanted to be upon the best terms with them; but the country was in a most critical position. A short time ago, Sir John Pakington, in his place in the B ouse of Commons, told the country in a frank manner that we had only five line-of-battle ships and 12 frigates ready for active service; which was less than the French navy. It became the country, therefore, to get more ready, and man them well. They had heard of an alliance between Russia and France. The Russian navy was nearly as strong as the French, and to his certain knowledge they had 300 gunboats. He had fought by the side of the French, and he knew them to be devilish fine fellows, and he should be sorry to see the alliance between them and the English nation dissolved; but:if the alliance between France and Russia was completed, they might have " box and dice" some day, and there would be the devil to pay, and no pitch hot—(laughter --aperson who had been listening to the discourse disappear ing from the room at the same time.) It was the interest of the shipowners to have the navy well manned. (A voice— " And have th e harbourprotected.") Yes; for a few shells could destroy all the ships in the harbour. If the shipowners took that view of the case they would see that he had not come to oppose their interest. He would never interfere with ships going to sea. He would not go on board a ship to take away a crew, because they had a pique at their master. He would not go to tap-shops and publichouses to pick up drunken men. He wanted good steady men who knew their duty, and who would fight like blazes if a dust should occur. (Loud cheers and laughter.) If they joined the navy I hey would have permanent employment. Suppose the average wages was £3 108. a month in the merchant ser vice, and a seaman was employed eight months i n a y ear , that was £3O. Now, they gave £2 Os. a month in the navy, and supposing a vessel arriving at home, and a man asked leave of absence for six weeks, his pay still ran on. He never saw such grub in the merchant service as they had on board a man-of-war. When his ship came down to the Tyne his men would come ashore—they should have as much leave as they could stick to. Some of them had fami lies, and if they joined and were a little in debt, all they had to do was to sign a paper, and half of the bounty would be advanced to rub the debt off. The Admiralty had come for ward in a liberal manner. They wanted good men to fill their ships, and they were anxious to have the opinion of the sailors as to any difficulty that might stand in their way ; and having said that much, he would now wait for any questions that might be put to him. Mr. ROBSON, an old seaman, came forward, amid loud cheers and laughter, and said he would read a few desul tory sentiments from an old tar who took his part in the last war. (Loud laughter.) The great Nelson said Eng land expected every Englishman to do his duty. Nelson and his friend Hardy sprung from the merchant service ; but our Government had ruined it by going beyond the Scripture maxim; for they had loved their neighbours better than themselves, and had starved their own seamen to feed the foreigner. The old gentleman then entered into a long tirade against the repeal of the navigation laws, railways, and screw-colliers, and asserted that the Tyne, instead of being a nursery for seamen, was now a nursery for engineers, stoker:, and firemen. (Loud laugh ter.) He asserted that in a short time the coal trade would be ruined, and England would be a second-rate power amongst the nations. The old tar then ran after another hobby of his anent the Pope of Rome, when he was coughed down. Capt. Pim would say nothing about the Pope. The best religion they could exercise just now was to trust in God and keep their powder dry. (Loud cheers.) He believed that the English sailor would be equal to this or any other emer gency, and that if it were attempted to invade England the invaders would have to march over their bodies. (Cheers.) He said they did not come to recruit from men half -seas over, but steady, patriotic, and good men. Mr. LumsDEN, a seaman's delegate, thought the bounty good at present, and the largest ever known. But he was of opinion that if a seaman died in the service his widow should be pensioned the same as the widow of an officer. The wages offered for the navy were equivalent at present to what was paid in the merchant service, and he believed the provisions were more liberal in the navy than in one-third of the mer chant vessels. Mr. ALEXANDER LESLIE thought that the seamen of the north would more heartily sympathise with the navy if the authorities were to take more interest in the merchant sailor. He pointed out how the seamen had been cheated by the misappropriation of the Merchant Seamen's Fund, and showed that when a poor old sailor was obliged to go to the workhouse his poor pension from that source was stopped. For his part he would as soon sail in a man-of-war as in a merchant ship—sooner than with some of our young dandy captAins. (Cheers.) A midshipman on board a man-of war durst not call a man a son of a ; and the captain never used bad language. (Laughter.) He entered into a very long detail about the Mercantile Marine Act. He thought many of its clauses should be swept away. It al lowed more arbitrary power in a merchant ship than was allowed on board a man-of-war ; and as the boy said of Pope, when Pope exclaimed, " Lord mend me !"—six good men could be made in the time that he was mending—and so six good acts might be made in the time they were trying to mend it. He advised young men to join the navy. He ridiculed the idea of the " cat." Captain PI3I and Mr. HELMSLEY spoke. The Captain said if a man was killed in action his wife would receive a pension. He said he wanted 39 able seamen for the Gorgon, and he hoped he would get them. He did not believe that there was a dozen cases of flogging on board the navy dur ing the past six months: Mr. Helmsley, who himself had wrought his way up from the merchant service, and in two years would be entitled to a captain's pension, said that ho had enrolled 1,600 men in the north in five years, and he could speak to the good treatment of the seamen on board men-of-war. Captain Pim said that he had heard that if £5 a month were offered they would get 2,000 A.B.'s from the northern ports. He would like to hear what the sailors had to ' , ay on that subject. CHARLES LIDDELL, in a very sensible speech, thought that a wife and family could not be supported by the half pay, £1 ss. a month, now left by a man joining the navy. However, if this country were likely to come to close quar ters, there would be no difficulty, he thought, in manning the navy. _ _ _ _ The Meeting broke up with three cheers for Capt. Pim and three cheers for the Queen. A large numter of volunteers for the Royal Navy have been forwarded from the Crocodile receiving ship off the Tower, to the Fisgard, flagship, at Wool wich, during the present week, and the men will be entered for service on board the Gorgon, Jacketll, Firebrand, and other vessels recently in commission. Some excitement was caused on the river yesterday from the appearance of the Dryad and Swift, steam vessels, belonging to the Wool— wich Steam Packet Company, and which were actively en. gaged in giving practical effect to the Queen's proclamation. Each vessel was gaily decked out with the national standard, and bunting of all colours from fore to aft. A band of musicians performed the national anthem, " Rule Britannia," " Cheer, Boys, cheer," &c., as the steam ers slowly proceeded up and down the river, and the crew smartly attired in blue jackets, white trousers, and straw hats, with blue streamers at intervals, appealed to the watermen and others engaged in river-side occupations to accept her Majesty's liberal bounty and serve under the flag of England. The result was highly satisfactory, and numerous volunteers were placed on board the Crocodile in the afternoon. As a further inducement to enter the naval service, the following admiralty notices were yesterday posted at the various dockyards and public establishments : —" Bounty to British Seamen who may enter the Royal Navy—Seamen who may enter in accordance with the royal proclamation, and entitled to receive the bounty, may, if they choose, mak e provision for the payment of their debts, or for the benefit of their wives and families to the extentof one-half of the bounty payable by the proclamation, 21 days from the date of each seaman's entry. The man is to sign a form sanctioning such payment, to be approved by the naval officer of the rendezvous or ship by whom he is en tered, and the amount will he paid from the office of the accounant-general of the navy immediately it becomes due. Seamen will thus be able to clear off their debts and leave their families irairnediately provided for, and as any allot ments they may wish to make can be taken from their pay the month after they join the navy, and as they can now re ceive from the paymaster of the ship a portion of their pay monthly, they will see that every care is taken to guard their families from want, and that they are themselves set free from debt and anxiety." Several able seamen have during the last few days been entered for the navy from the Sailors' Home, Well-strcet, London Docks. 'The large intercourse which thi s i ns tit u ti on has had with merchant seamen (100,000 of whom have been received as boarders during tho last 24 years) has induced the directors to address the following letter to the Secretary of the Adinfraltyon the above important subject :—" I am desired by the directors of the Sailors' Home to re quest you will inform the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty that the proclamations for granting bounties to seamen have been received here from the Registrar- Gsneral of Seamen, and that every publicity shall 143 given and every assistance rendered by this institution for carrying out that important notice. lam further desired to state that during the Russian war an office was appro priated in the Sailors' Home for officers of her Majesty's ships to communicate with sailors, and that it will be again appropriated for that purpose if required. The , directors request me further to submit the desirability of establishing temporary branch offices in connection with her Majesty's ship Crocodile at the following places : Tooley-street, Borough, Wapping, Ratcliffe-highway, Limehouse, Poplar, and Gravesend, and under suitable officers, he,, to make known to seamen all the, advantages of the navy. lam also desired respectfully to add, that in the opinion of the directors, the employment of one or two small steamers, with a suitable staff, to communicate with the colliers at the different stations in the Thames, as well as the ships from foreign ports (when the wind changes), placing an board cir cu l ars , proc l ama ti ons, & c., m i g h t b e at tended with the best advantages, and they are fortified in this opinion by the remembrance that when the Britannia was preparing for the ling, of Sir James Dundas, a young lieutenant from that ship, by patient exertions, succeeded in entering several hundreds of merchant seamen in the port of London.—l am, &c., GEO. PrancE, Secretary.— The Secretary of the Admiralty." Captain Brown, It.N., the Registrar-General of Seamen, accompanied by Mr. Tribe, a gentleman connected with his department, paid a visit to Liverpool yesterday to concert measures for procuring sailors for the navy at the present crisis Captain Brown and Mr. Tribe called upon the offi cials of the Sailors' Home, Local Marino Board, Custom house, the principal shipowners, and the editors of the local newspapers, and solicited their influence in assisting the Government to procure crews for the navy, so that the nation might be promptly placed in a situation which would relieve the country from all fears of invasion. Attention was called to the proclamation recently issued by the Queen, offering a bounty of .ClO and other advantages to seamen entering the navy, and to the necessity for all classes to use their best efforts to assist the authorities in rapidly prepar ing for active service a numerous and efficient fleet. The remarks of Captain Brown and Mr. Tribe wore cordially responded to, and every disposition shown to render them assistance in their patriotic efforts. Captain Brown and Mr. Tribe will leave Liverpool for Glasgow and other ports ' to-day, but they will shortly return to Liverpool to attend a public meeting of seamen, which it was thought advisable to delay for a few days, as so few sailors are at present port, owing to the unusual continuance of easterly winds, THE NEW PARLIAMENT.

CLERKENWELL.—DARING ATTEMPT AT MURDER. —Samuel Adams, aged 35, a dirty, dissipated, ferocious looking man, described on the charge-sheet as a shoemaker, residing at Mary-street, Kingsland-road, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt charged with maliciously cutting and wounding, with intent to do grievous bodily . harm, Martha Page, at Howard-road, Hornsey. Police-sergeant Bovis, I N, said the injured woman was not able to attend to-day, and he had, therefore, to ask for a remand. The injured woman is the prisoner's sister-in law. He then handed in the following certificate : " German Hospital, Dalston, May 6, 1859. "Martha Page, 24 years of age, was admitted into this hospital yesterday afternoon, suffering from a wound in the left hip, extending about two inches in length through the skin and muscles. Although there are no important or gans injured, the patient being very exciteablo is now in a feverish state. "Dr. C. TROMMAUN, Resident Medical Officer." Police-constable Bolton, 466 N, said that on the previous afternoon he was in Howard. road, when he heard cries of " Police" and " Murder," and was called to take the pri soner into custody for stabbing a young woman. The fe male was in a fainting state, and said she was wounded in her side. When he took the prisoner into custody he was told the charge, and said nothing. He searched the prisoner and found upon him a sharp knife, such as are generally used by shoemakers. The knife, which was concealed, had apparently been lately sharpened. Mrs. Elizabeth Reynolds, 96, West-street, Bermondsey, said she yesterday went to visit a friend in Kingsland, at the house of whom the injured woman was acting in the capacity of nurse. She (witness) asked her the way to Abney Park, and she offered to show her the way. Before they started, the prisoner came to the door, saw the in jured woman, detained her some time, and had some very angry words with her. She (witness) left the house with. Mrs. Page, but they had only proceeded a very short distance when the prisoner came up, made) use of some violent expression, and made three stabs at her with a sharp shoemaker's knife. After he had dono this, the pri • soner, with an oath, said he would murder her, if not then at some other time. The prisoner wanted the injured woman to tell him where his wife was, but she refused, saying that he was a very bad man, that he had been parted from her some time, and that he was always getting drunk. The prisoner, who treated the matter with the greatest indifference, declined to say anything in his defence, or to ask the witnesses any questions. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week, and said the case would ultimately be sent to the Old Bailey. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE LATE ATTEMPT TO MURDER A HUSBAND.— Mary Ann Pocher was brought before Mr. Bingham for final examination, charged with stabbing William Pocher, her husband, with a sharp-pointed table-knife, with intent to kill or do some grievous bodly harm. The evidence on the previous examination was the tes timony of another lodger in the same house (Frederick Burn, 32, Silver-street, Golden-square), who, coming home at a quarter past one-a.m., let the husband in, when each wont to his respective room. In two minutes after, hear ing angry words overhead, he went to his own door, and then, from the upstairs landing, heard loud c r i es o f " Help ! police I I'm stabbed !" Taking his light, he pro ceeded to the spot, and there saw the husband in a crouching position at the open door, his hands to his head, and his face deluged with blood. The prisoner stood within the apartment, offering no sort of help ; and the wounded bleed m a to n death. waa can `Fitness wounded man telling him he had b een s t a bb ed three times by the prisoner, desired she should b e g i ven ft l charge, andss expressed a policeman,fea r that he I theie should procuring a the hospital, the prisoner app re h en d ed, and a search vey e made. 3 Near where the latter stood, the knife, marked with of the blood was found, and a l argo portion covered with blood, near which a man's hat lay crushed. The prisoner to seemed feel her position t acu ely, and was allowed a seat in the dock. The husband, whose head and • right eye were bandaged over, and who was evidently suffering from illness and de bility, said he h a d been married to the prison er y eight ye arse they h a d li ve d an unhappy life toars, together. e had been for some • time a messenger at Verey's. She had stabbed him once before, but he foro-ave her. (He here corrobo rated the statement of the witness Burn.) On going into his room he found his wife on the bed. There was no light except a reflection from a gas-light in the street opposite. The prisoner began to upbraid him for being out so late, and said it was four o'clock. Addressing her by her Chris tian name, he told her it was only one. She had risen, and he then received a blow on the head which knocked him on to the bed. This was quickly followed up by a second blow on the face, and he directly felt the blood trickling down, when he rushed to the door and called for assistance. He was soon after taken to the hospital, where he had been Over since. On the night in question ho had been having a glass or so, but knew well what ho was about. Mr. James Colton Arnold, house-surgeon at Charing cross Hospital, described the wound, which was directly above the right eyeball, was three-quarters of an inch in length and the eighth of an inch in depth, and could have been inflicted from such an instrument as the knife pro duced. There was profuse hemorrhage. Rough, 178 C, said the prisoner remarked when taken into custody that she was sorry she had not done for him. She was quite sober. The prisoner, who is about 40 years of age, when asked, after the usual caution, if she wished to say anything, burst L.

Finally committed to the Central Criminal Court for trial. LAMBETH.--ASSAULT ON A CHlLD.—George Osgood, a porter in the service of the London and South-Western Railway Company, was charged, on remand, with having indecently assaulted Clara Riplett, aged six years. Mr. Birnie, from the office of Mr. W. Shaen, with Mr. H. Allen, attended on the part of the Associate Institution for improving and enforcing the Laws for the Protection of Women. The evidence of the complainant, an intelligent child, went to show that the assault was committed. The prisoner, who is a married man, said that he was drunk at the time when he was charged with having com mitted the assault, and that he did not know what he was doing. He was sent for four months to the House of Correction, with hard labour. HAMMERSMITH.—RETURNING HOME FROM THZ HUSTINGS.—SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—George Forrester, a cab-driver, wearing the badge No. 1,164, was placed in the dock before Mr. Dayman, charged, with being drunk and furiously driving his horse and cab to . the danger of the The prisoner, who appeared to hav9 been severely in jured, was unable to walk without the assistance of a stick. Police-constable Greonway, of the T aivision, said that on th© previous evening he was on duty in the Brompton road, Earl's -court, when he saw the prisoner driving a four-wheel cab along the road at a furious rate. The vehicle was rolling . from one side of the road to the other, and, expecting every moment that some serious accident would happen, he turned round and ran after it for the pur pose of stopping the driver. He had gone but a short dis tance when the horse fell, and the cab overturned, throwing the driver into the road. He went up to the prisoner, who was the driver, and found him very drunk. The cab turned over from the force of the zig-zag velocity in which it was proceeding. There was one gentleman riding inside and two others upon the box with the' prisoner, and they were all the worse for drink. The three gentlemen were also thrown out and were injured more or less. Captain Ingham, of the 10th Hussars, was called by the prisoner, and he appeared to have sustained some injuries on the left side of the face. He stated that on Thursday morning he and his brother hired the prisoner's cab to take them to Brentford to hear the election business, and after it was over they dined at Richmond. On returning home he was outside, and his brother was inside. The accident occurred consequent upon his brother pulling the check string, which caused the prisoner to pull up suddenly on the near side from the off side, and in doing so the cab overturned. His brother was seriously injured, and he also sustained some bruises upon his face. Ho could state positively that the prisoner was not drunk. They were re turning at the time to the Army and Navy Club. Sergeant Ballard said he took the charge, and the pri soner was certainly drunk. Mr. Dayman said it appeared a very singular thing that pulling a check•-string should overturn a cab. The prisoner said it was the sudden check, and on at tempting to pull the mare on the near side the cab turned over. Mr. Darman said it was in consequence of his getting drunk that the cab had overturned, and as a protection to the public he fined the prisoner 205., qr 14 days' imprison ment. The proprietor of the cab said his firoyerty had been very much damaged. Mr. Dayman said he need not continue the prisoner any longer in his service. He should not employ him again if he was in his employ. Captain Ingham paid the fine, and the prisoner was liberated.
