By a false movement he fell from the ladder and was killed on the spot." THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 16, 1860. 111 E EA V . The screw steamer Rodney, 91, fitting for the first division of the steam reserve, is having her ma chinery put on board by the contractors, who have a number of men employed in the work. The Rod ney remains lashed to the sheer hulk to be in readi ness to receive her masts. The screw steamship Royal Albert, 120, Captain Lacon, continues in Plymouth Sound waiting orders. The screw steamship Conqueror, 101, Captain Sotheby, was hauled out of No. 3 dock in Kevham Steamyard on Friday, and put in the lock. On Saturday she was taken alongside the sheer hulk Kent, and received her mainmast. She was then placed at her moorings. The screw steamship Nile, 93, Capt. R. R. Bar nard, will be docked to-day (Monday) at Keyham Yard, Plymouth. Her topmasts are stripped. The screw steamship Sanspareil, 72, Capt. "Wil mot, was hauled out of the basin in the Devonport dockyard on Friday and placed alongside the hulk Vigo in Ilamoaze to complete her fitment. The topsail yards of the screw steamship Revenge, 90, at Plymouth, are crossed, and the lower yards are athwart the settings ready for sending aloft. The paddlewheel steam tender Avon, 3, second Master G. Davey, from Pembroke, arrived at Ply mouth on Saturday. She touched at Penzance to enter men for the Royal navy. The paddle-wheel steam-sloop Basilisk, 6, Corn; mender G. A. Phayre, lately from North America and tho West Indies, is ordered to be paid off t at Woolwich on Wednesday next. The naval transport Diligence, J. Head, master, from Woolwich, arrived at Plymouth on Friday, with stores for the dockyar d. The revenue cutter Royal Charlotte, from Pem broke, arrived at Plymouth on Friday. The Board of Admiralty has decided on taking the examinations of candidates for apprenticeship in'Chatham Dockyard entirely out of the hands of the dockyard officers, and placing them under the control of the Civil Service Commissioners, who are directed to attend at Chatham docks and on the oc casion of the next examination. The Lords of the Admiralty have fixed the examination of the candi dates for this year's entry to take place on the 23d and 24th inst., on which days the candidates for' apprenticeship in Sheerness dockyard will assemble at Chatham, in order that the whole number may be examined at the same time. The lads will all be required to undergo a physical test, and must con form to the rules laid down by the Director-General of the Medical Department of the Navy. This ar rangenent has given great satisfaction, as it will put an end to that system of favouritism by the local officers which has been complained of, not only at Chatham, but at the other Royal dockyards. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieut. W. C. S. Sulivan and Lieut. J. j. - W. Jervis, additional, to the Hawke; Dr. L. T. Cunningham, staff surgeon, to the For midable; J. S. Davidson, surgeon, to the Algiers; S. Donnelly, surgeon, to the Cumberland ; C. Smith, surgeon, to the Hawke ; Dr. W. H. Lloyd, assistant-surgeon, to the Nile; Robert Murphy, assistant-surgeon, additional, to the Formidable; A. It. Moxham, acting 3d class assistant-engineer, to the Asia, as supernumerary; G. 11. Doming, second master, to the Nile; G. Harris, second master, to the Impregnable; and G. W. Burnett, master's as sistant, to the Chesapeake. 71IE 1?OR IL' ITALIANS. The following art. pears in the Presse Where Jupiter .he world he had only to frown. The Emperor of the French, when he would move Europe, has only to open his mouth or to sit doWn to his writing-desk. Since he can make peace or war according to his -will, he is in the eyes of all other goverements the mind ,and arm of France ; he holds them all, so to speak, sus pended on his lips or hanging on the tip of his pen. A year ago his speech to M. de Hubner gave an entirely new direction to the course of affairs, and overthrew all the combinations of diplomacs. Now, his letter to Pius IX., showing that the most serious complications have survived the war, has thrown public opinion into new perplexities. The semi-offi cial press, in its intolerable optimism, - expresses the opinion that this letter simplifies the situation. The E nptror of the Freda ,with more modesty and frank • ness, is far from pretending that all difficulties are at an end. In his St. Cloud speech he confessed that he had had the pain of leaving his programme incom plete. In his letter of Dee. 31 he says to the Pope, " Your Holiness will understand -the difficulty of my sitaation." The especially striking part of this letter is the sentiment of the incompatibility which exists in the mind of. the French Emperor between hb feelings towards the Pope and his engagements to the Italians. '' I cannot," he tells the Pope, " escape a certain degree of solidarity with the effects of that national.votvnent, which was pro,. voted in Italy by thelTiliig4te with Austria." This solidarity, born of the force of things—a solidarity which explains the imperturbable eorfidence of the Italians—is something more than relative ;it has governed the situation for the last six months, and will for a long time to come rule the foreign policy of France. -On Jan. 1, 1859, the Italians had no thought of war. They were surprised, in common with the rest of Europe, by the. speech of M. de ljubner. The Emperor of the French, in his mani festo of May 3, declared that Austria hail brought things to such an extremity that she must either dominate as far as the Alps, or Italy must be free from the Alps to the Adriatic; they felt within their bosoms a revival of those hopes which they lost at Novara. Their joy redoubled, and they looked upon their. independence as certain on the day when there went forth from Milan this appeal to their wisdom and courage. " Profit by the for tune offered to you. Be only soldiers to day, and to-morrow you shall be citizens of a great nation'." This appeal, issued on June 8, after the battle of "A. Peyrat," a. Magenta, and when the Lombards were already emancipated, was plainly addressed to all Italy. And accordingly the Italians, blonding all their aspira tions, had thenceforth only the one thought of found ing a great country inhabited by free citizens. All on a sudden, in the midst of their enthusiasm, they learned that the two empei ors had met at Villafransa, and that alone in a little chamber, tAte-4-tke with a nosegay before them, in the space of a singlehour they had settled the fate of Lombardy and Venetia, and reserved the rights of the fugitive princes —in other words, had called is question the rights of those populations which had been invited to choose an independent existence. Surprised by the peace as they had been by the war, the Italians, never thcless, did not give way to discouragement. They had been told, " Profit by the fortune that offers itself to you. Providence sometimes favours nations as it does indivi luals, by giving them an opportu nity to grow great all at once, but this is on the condition that they show themselves equal to the occasion." The Italians at Bologna and Florence did profit by the opportunity, and thinking that the only way to grow great all at once was to form a state of ten or twelve millions of souls, they de manded to be annexed to Piedmont, already aug mented by the addition of Lombardy. 'Whatever may be thought of this their determination—whe ther it may or may not be thought blameable, it is abundantly evident that it was the effect of the " national movement provoked by the struggle with Austria," from a solidarity with which the French Emperor admits that he cannot escape. It might, however, have been thought that he intended to limit this solidarity to the movement in Romagna ; but this is shown in the pamphlet to be altogether a mistake, and on this point the pamphlet, naturally more explicit, explains and completes the letter of Dec. 31. The right of self-emancipation from Pon tifical domination is not a privilege confined to the Romagnas. The Marches and Umbria have the like rights, and for the like reason ; and, consequently, if to morrow Ancona and Ravenna were to separate themselves from the Holy See, their insurrection, just like that at Bologna, would be " an effect of the national movement provokei by the st niggle against Austria," and would carry with it the same soli darity. The pamphlet admits this ; and pur suant to this reasoning, the pamphlet would leave to the Pope, of all the. 21 provinces which he now possesses, nothing but "a little corner of earth sequestered from the passions and interests which agitate other peoples, and devoted exclusively to the glory of God." I'his project, although far more radical than the letter, is yet incomplete. But why do you inflict, for the sake of religion, on the souls and. rights of two or three hundred thousand men the mutilation formerly practised on other creatures for the sake of music ? And if these creatures of the Papacy-, according to the pamphlet, fatigued with the ."sweet and calm vistas of the spiritual world," Should imitate their brethren at Bologna and Ancona, would you renew the expe dition of 1819 for the purpose of teaching them to remain content with contemplation, the arts, the study of great historical traditions, and prayer ? As right and justice do not happen to bo a geogra phical question, you cannot censure at Rome what yoa.approve at Bologna, and as the Emperor of the French says very truly in ! his letter to Pio Nono, " Facts have an inexorable logic," against which you contend in vain. What is to be done, then ? For in short, as the letter of December 31 al zo says " this uncertainty cannot last for ever." The Emperor of the French thought that what was " most in conformity with the interests of the Holy See" would be to make a sacrifice of the revolted provinces, and ask the powers to guarantee the rest. At once England replies that she will guarantee nothing, and then the Pope declares he will not give up one tittle of what he regards as his right and duty. He does not exactly adopt Hildebrand's method, he launches no ecclesiastical thunderbolts, he does not thunder out excommunication as yet ; but, in the meantime, the vivacity of his language announces an im movable will. So, bet wren the court of Rome ani mated with the spirit that inspired the Pope's answer to General de Goyon, and the French Go vernment faithful to the spirit that inspired the pamphlet, no arrangement is possible. There is still the Congress. Supposing it does meet, it will not choose, wo mae be sure, to regis ter purely and simply the stipulations of Villa franca and the arrangements of Zurich. A solemn and controversial debate will comm.mce on the state of Italy. If this debate be merely consultative, the result, be it what it may, will not at all change the situation. If, on the contrary, the Congress in tends giving to its decision the sanction of force, and if that decision be contrary to the state of things now existing in the Duchies and Romagna, what will France and England do, engaged as they are, the one to admit no discussion about the abso lute right of the Italians, the other to refrain from interference herself and to prevent all other inter vention ? It is not to be supposed that they will yield, and the Times thinks that their sincere Ind perfectly authentic accord will discourage all oppo. sition. Possibly ; but, for all that, should the Congress remain firm, should it yield no more than France and England will, we do not see how Europe can escape a general conflict. Such is the situation which the semi-official jour nals represent as being " very much simplified."

OPENING P TIlTs PR US.SI. i.S CHAMBERS. The following is the speech of the Pt ince Re;ent of Prussia on opening the Chambers—an analysis of which has been transmitted by telegraph : Illustrious Nobles and Honoured Gentlemen of ths two Chambers of the Diet,—ln dismissing you last year on the eve of your return to your hon.es, we implored God to grant the restoration to health of our beloved King and lord. But to my great s -crow and that of the country, it was not in the dce-ees of the Almighty to lessen the su&rings of his Majesty. Geave events have been accomplished in Europe. The war which broke out in Italy appro..tched in its rapid course the German frontiers. To 'the gravity of that situatioa the firmness of our at , titude had to respond. I accordingly ordered the mobilisation of six corps dames. Already had those corps began to take up positions, in concert with the troops of the German Confederates not en gaged in the confli c t, w h en the vat. suddenly ended. Tho preliminaries signed at Villafranea were fol lowed by the conclusion of peace. On the common invitation of Austria and France my government declared itself ready to take part in a European Congress to deliberate on the best means of pacify : - ing Italy, and of consolidating in a durable manner the political situation of that peninsula. • Quite recently the wish for a reform of the feder ral constitution haps'been anew manifested. Prussia will. always .consider herself as the natural repre sentative of the tendencies which have for object to restore and unite the national forces, and to pro woteEfficaciously, by really p rac ti ca l measures, t h e general interests of Germany,. My government is guided by the desire to see the action of the Germanic Diet in its relations with the constitutionaof the different states to the nar rowest limits consistent with appropriate interven tion. In consequence, it has regarded as its duty, in the constitutional question of Electoral Hesse, yr hich has been for years before the Federal Diet, to indicate in conformity with that principle, the return of the constitution of 1831, with, however, the removal from that constitution of the enact ments contrary to the federal laws which it con tains. In concert with my German Confederates, I am making incessant efforts to obtain a constitution in harmony with existing treaties, and with the recog nised rights of those countries, for the Ger,nan ter ritories placed under the Danish sceptre. My efforts in the Germanic Diet shall likewisLe tend to cause to be regulated in a satisfactory manner the tran sitory situation which must necessarily exist wail a definitive arrangement can be come to. The events of last year could not occur without troubling commercial relations. My government, has, however,, endeavoured to repair as much as pol,sible the consequences which w e r e p ro d uce d. Public works have been continued almost without exception, and the wastruction of railways confided to priv::to enterprise, has been preserved us far as possible from interruption. Commerce and manu factures are now beginning to recover from the serious consequences of that perturbation. The mission- which leaves for Eastern Asia, and which is destined to establish regular relations with the countries in that part of the world recently par- Cully opened to commerce, will contribute, I hope, to give new activity to our manufactures and navi gation. This mission is accompanied by a squadron of our navy. This navy will receive a notable in crease in consequence of the extraordinary credits which you have voted for the purpose. An additional convention to . the treaty of com merce and navigation of the 22d June, 1815, with Sardinia was concluded on the 28th October last. This convention will be submitted to your consti tutional approbation. In spite of the unfavourable influence of the war like events of last year, we may regard with satis faction the financial situation of the country. We way expect with confilence that the budget of last year will be balanced by means of the ordinary revenues and without having recourse to extra ordinary resources. The Goverment has besides, for the present year, established the. : preliminary budget of expenses and receipts in such a manner as, whilst satisfying the wants of the public ser vices, may enable us to continue the ameliorations commenced, and provide for new and urgent wants. We have been able to realise without difficulty the loan which you voted for military purposes, and which was left to public sub scr ipti on . Th e satisfactory result of that vast operation proves alike the patriotism of the people and the confi dence placed in our finances. An account will shoitly be given to you of the employment of the credits voted. A notable portion of them is still in the coffers of the Government. A bill on the employment of these funds shall be presented to you, h and asbe provisionally eni paidttheo a u ,r r s ea : o 'Treasury. i.y f : 12,000,000 thalers The general interests of the state require more than ever a prompt solution of the question of the land tax. The bills which were not passed in the last session will be again submitted to your deli beration. It is to be expected that the Government will be able to submit to you a bill relative to the organist tion of the various circles of the country. My Government has taken into serious considera tion the situation of the municipal organisation of towns and villages, the state of the administration of the rural police, and the devektpment, promised by the legislature of 18.3, of the organisation of districts and provinces. The investigation of these subjects has been carried as far as the agitations of last year permitted. A bill relative to the execution of Art. 69 of the constitution concerning the circumscription of elec toral districts for the Chamber of Deputies, which will be presented to you, is destined to remove numerous objections. The bill on marriage will be submitted to you anew. I strongly desire that at last you may succeed in realising the important and urgent reform for which it provides. Other measures which will be presented to you are destined to supply wants which have long prevailed i❑ dif ferent parts of the kingdom. • My incessant solicitude is devoted to the moral intere►t.s of the nation, The Government will care fully endeavour, as heretofore, to increase public instruction, and to complete within the measures of the I.: sources of which it disposes the scientific esta blishments in the universities. By the side of the gymnases, the manufacturing schools have obtained the position which is due to them by the new regu lations, which assure to them a scientific character, and make them of practical utility. As regards elementary instruction, the salaries of schoolnias ters have been again increased. Preparations are besides being made for the creation of new training schools, in order to supply the want of good school masters, which is still felt. Gentlemen, a question of high importance re quires all the solicitude of my government and all your , olicitude also. When, last year, I found myself obliged to order the calling out of our mili tary force, the soldiers zealously responded to the appeal by ranging, themselves under the national flag. lam proud to pay the tribute of my grati tude to this patriotism, which has never been wanting. Nevertheless, our military organisation requires a reform—not one, however, rendered necessary by the absence of devotedness or of bra very. The organisation of the army was proceeded to in the midst of circumstances of the gravest kind. Beity , in proportion to the population and the financial resources of the epoch, the organisa tion was afterwards preserved, in conjunction with the remembrance of its glorious successes. But the experience of the last few years, during which the armed fora() of the nation has been several times called out, has proved the existence more and more evident of inconveniences of various kinds, but all serious. To remove those inconveniences is my duty and my right, and I request your constitu tional cooperation in the adoption of measures calculated to increase our defensive forces iu u pro portion which shall correspond to the augmenta tion of the population, without encroaching on the interests of manufactures and agriculture. For this purpose a bill on the universal obliga tion of military service will be presented to you ; amid it will be aceompanied by financial propoai • lions. It is not our intention to break off with the inheritance of a great epoch. The Prussian army will be in future, as now, the Prussian people in arms. What has to be done is to animate with a new force, by regenerating forms, and in• the limits fixed by the financial resources of the country. the military organisation which the past bequeathed us. I Invite your impartial examination or, and your consent to; this bill, which has been drawn up after a profound examination, and which affects both the civil and military interests of Prussia. This approbation will be in the eyes of all a proof of the confidence which the country places in me and in my loyal intentions. Gentlemen, never have the representatives of the country had to appreciate a measure of greater portance foe the defence, the grandeur, and the, destinies of the country against the vicissitudes of 4 13 .

The details of the dreadful loss of the clipper ship Flora Temple, Capt. Johnson, mister, from Macao for Havannah, to which we briefly alluded: a few days since, have come to hand, from which it wise be seen that the whole of the unhappy crea tures on board, Coolie labourers, numbering 8.50, perished. The Flora Temple was a first-class ship, and hay ing been chartered for the conveyance of Coolies, sailed from Macao on the morning of the Bth of last October. Her crew, including officers, were about fifty men, and four days after leaving port they encountered a heavy gale of wind from the southwest, with a high sea. Sail was reduced, and althouh on the morning of the 14th the gale had abated; it continued southwest, and Capt. Johnson declined making more sail, being apprehensive that a current might cet the ship to the east ward, in the direction of reefs which were marked upon the chart. The sights obtained at noon were good, and the position of the ship ap peared to be so far (3(i miles) to the westward of the most westerly reefs in the latitude in whieh they then were, that the captain, having directed a good lookout to be kept, apprehended. no danger from standing- on until 8 p.m., at which hour he had given instructions that the vessel should be put about. At 7.20 p.m. he came on deck from the tea table, and, in answer to inquiry, was informed by the officer of the watch that a good lookout had been - kept from the topsail-yard. The officer was sent forward to see, however, and had barely reached the forecastle, when the cry of " Hard up" was heard from the look-out. The helm was imme diately put hard up; and the spanker layered, and no sooner was this done than " Hard down" was heard from the officer, who by this - time had come • aft again to the gangway. It was then . discovered that the ship was within a short dis tance of the breakers, which could now be dis tinctly seen and heard, and which extended in a curved line from about four points on the starboard bow to about three points on the port bolt'. It seemed impossible a long ship like the Fl )ra Temple could escape them, and although the yards were braced round, and the ship hove aback, she strick first slightly, and then very soon afterwards several times with a tremendous crash, the breakers run• ning very high alongside. Pieces of her timber and planking floated up on her port side, and after some more very heavy bumps she remained apparently immoveable, with a heavy list to port, and the water rapidly increased till it reached between the decks, where the Coolies were. It was found impossible to extricate her. While this was going on (indeed, almost imme diately after the ship struck) a fear that the coolies would rise and murder all on board 'seemed to have possessed the minds of the crew, and to such a height did this rise that the captain (having at the time, however, no intention of abandoning the ship). had the two quarter boats lowered, and placed an officer and five men in each, with orders to re main close to the ship, so that refuge and assistance might be at hand. The crew appeared to have been thoroughly unmr.nned, their only anxiety- was to get out of the ship, and but for the captain and his brother, and a few others on board, the boats would have left the ship absolutely unprovided with the necessaries of life. These boats were lowered at 10 o'clock. At 12 o'clock the other boats were got out, and there re• tnained the long boat, which the panic-stricken men had declared it was impossible to get out. Only 15 of the crew remained on board, and the labour and difficulty in getting the boat out was immense. At length it was got over the side at 4 a.m., and with its crew passed safely through the breakers. Before leaving the ship the lead was hove; four fathoms were got under the bows and stern, and three fathoms amidships. Immediately through the breakers there was no bottom at 14 fathoms. At break of day the ship appeared to be almost without motion. Her masts were standing, she had a strong list to port, her back was broken, and the sea making a clear breach ever her starboard quar ter. The coolies, who had remained below all night, were now up and clustered on the upper decks. The captain, after passing round the northern extremity of the lines of breakers, oined the starboard-quarter boat, which had the smaller boats in company, the port-quarter boat with the second mate in charge having deserted during the night, alarmed probably at the guns which werefired front the ship, and which to them seemed to denote the dreaded outbreak of the Coolies.' The crews of the dingies were then transferred to the longboat and gum terboat, and at 9 a.m. sail was made to the westward. The wind then rose to a severe gale from W.S.W., with a tremendous sea and heavy rain, and the boats parted company. From Saturday, the 15th, till the following Friday the gale continued without abatement, and serious apprehension was felt for the safety of the starboard quarterboat, which contained Mr. Marshall, the mate, nine men, and two boys, and the port quer terboat, which had in her the second mate, Mr. Wal ton, and five men. The longboat contained 31, in cluding Capt. Johnson, his brother, and Mr. A. P. Childs, the surgeon. Throughout the seven days while the gale lasted, this boat was hove to under a close-reefed mainsail with a bucket veered out to 20 fathoms. Most of them had saved nothing but what they stood in. The boat was an open one, and they were drenched with the seas which broke over them, and with the rain which fell night and day. They were covered with salt water boils and suffered mite pain. A biscuit and half a pint of water a day was all they dared to venture on, and sleep was almost impossible. On the Saturday the wind and sea abated. Fortunately the cap tain had saved his sextant and a chart, and as they found the boat drifted by the gale as far as 13 degrees N., it was determined to make for Touron, the French settlement in Cochin China. On the 'Wednesday, 12 days after leaving the I wreck, land was made to the sou th o f T ouron . The boat was made fast to a fishing stake all night on account of the strong current which had swept her to th e sou th the day before, and on the following evening they came in sight of the French squadron. Finding it impossible to weather the Cape that night they put into a small fishing harbour, where they were most hospitably treated, and on the next evening, the 28th, they reached Touron. They were received on board his Imperial Majesty's steamer Gironde, and Capt. Johnson at once put himself in communication with the French Admiral, M. Page, and begged him to send in search of the missing boats as well as to rescue the Coolies. With the greatest readiness the request was com plied with, and the Gironde was despatched to the scene of the disaster, Capt. Johnson, his brother, and Mr. Childs, the surgeon, accompanying her. They came in sight of the reef on the afternoon of the 2d of November. The sea still rolled and broke as before; but no remnant could be seen of the ship till on proceeding closer in a boat herport side from the main chain forward could be observed floating. • Of the 850 coolies no traces remained. Close to the reef, within a short distance of the wreck on the S.E. side, the boat sounded, and found no bottom at 27 fathoms, and within a mile to north west there was no bottom at 70 fathoms. The breakers extended about half a mile in a curved line. They wero very narrow not over 150 yards in width. The position, according to the calculation on board the Gironde, 10 19 N., 113 13 E., while Captain Johnson made it in 10 16 N. and 113 20 E. Nothing remained to be done. The unhappy Coolies had, doubtless, perished and the Gironde at once shaped a course for Manilla, where she arrived on the evening of the Bth of November. it is stated that it was impossible to make any attempt to save the Coolies. Captain Johnson and his brother are very humane and emu.t , rcous men , but the crew were so terrified that it was almost by exertions beyond belief on the part of the captain, his brother, and a few others , that the safety or he crew even was secured . It appea rs, however,tthat they had some reason for distrusting the Coolies at this crisis. Oa the Monday after they left Macao, all scorned comfortable and cheerful ; their food was plentiful and good, and their state was w e ll cared for, the necessary order a n d discipline among them being enforced by their own head men exclusively. Oa the Tuesday morning, at seven o'clock, however, three days after leaving Afacao, the watch on deck being scattered about the ship, and the guard at the port gate of the barricade which was erected between the Coolies and crew (who slept aft), being away from his post, the coolies, who had collected on deck in large numbers, suddenly fell upon the guard at the starboard gate, struck him on the head with an iron belaying-pin as he was stooping down, drew out his sword and having cut him frightfully, afterwards, with cruel l'he Coolies were armod with the cook's axes, the chain ho;ks, iron belaying-pins, Lairdspikes, And every weapon they cot7ld lay their hr,nds upon, and [ut for the sudden panic which the - uo- , :peelefl shots from the revolvers produced, - it was-impossi 14e to say what would have saved the crew. On inquiry - it turned out that, a deep-laid scheme had been . rilanned for killing them all and taking: pos session of the ship, and it was this design, and the crew being constantly on their gun rd, t hat pi o:dueed such apprehension and terror among them when the ship struck. It is reported that the boats were ro more thin sufficient to save the crew, 49 in numbei. The ship was 300 miles from land, and it is stated that it was impossible to raft 850 men so great a dis tance, much less feed themlikven bad the crew bon justified or encouraged in trusting their lives.tot he Coolies' forbearance. It was felt that the only chance of saving even one of the u n fo r t u n ate Coolies was their falling In with a ship which might perhaps be induced to go to their assistance. Althouglv. the long boat crossed thainost freciiientcd part of the China Sea, not a sail of any kind was seen. It is thou g ht th at i n all probability the ship went to pieces on the night of Saturday, when the gale commenced. ADoprieN 14" ACT TEL LACE FACTO &LES'. -• An important public meeting of the master ,and operative laeetnakers was held on Sajurdtry evening, `niel4ih iu t., in the Msembly-rootni, Nottingham. Mr. T. B. Carlton (county magistrate) occupied the chair, and on the platform were the Rev. J. M. Valpy, incumbent of St. John Baptist, Nottingham; Messu. Councillor Cox, Mallett, &c. The CHAIRMAN, after a few prefatory ranarks, asked who was there who would fail to sympathise, with the men who were robbed of their domestic comforts by the employment of their Ivivcs and chil dren in lace factories, and who could depict their feelings when were seen the emaciated faces of tho*e who were looked upon to carry down the names of their parents and exercise their duties in t his busy life. He grieved to say that there was tin amount of privation and suffering, among that portion oft ho population of this neighbourhood connected with the lace trade which was utterly unknown in other towns of this kingdom, or indeed in the civilised world. That suffering had been caused by various circumstances, probably of sloW growth—circum stances that arose from that when the trade was in .a very different condition it was in at the, present time. At this period the importance of thelaco trade was greatly appreciated by the nation at large; but it would be wicked and monstrous to shut our eyes to the great evils which now existed in the trade. The chairman then read a number of extracts from a blue book, showing that many child, en, 9 or 10 years old, were engaged from perhaps 2,3, or 4 o'clock in the Morning until 10,11, or 12 o'clock at night, and, indeed, sometimes later. Mr. MALLErT (a manufacturer) said that these extracts applied to the lace trade 20 years ago ; tut nianufacturers were not in the habit of ill-using the boys as had been represented in that book. An OPERATIVE—Things are worse now. _ The CHAIRMAN said he mktst beg to correct Mr. Mallett as he (the chairman) was only reading sta tistical facts. The Rev. J. M. VALPY suggested that if Mr. Mallett had any remarks to make he should do so when the chairman .had concluded. '.l'ne CHAIRMAN then read a. number of other extracts, and concluded by advising the working men never to cease agitating until they had obtained the act, and then they would be in possession of the same privileges as were enjoyed by the large towns in Yorkshire and Lancashire. If the present state of things were allowed to continue it would be a stigma upon the country, and would have a very injurious effect upon women and children, and would materially deteriorate the health of the working classes , , who were the bone and sinews of the country. Mr. CHAS. ATKIN (master lacemaker) proposed the first resolution :—" That this meeting sees with regret the great moral evils arising from women and children working untimely hours in lace fac tories, and pledges itself if possible to put them under the Factory Act." The Rev. J. MONTAGU VALPY seconded the reso lution, and said that it caused him deep concern to witness the excessive hours which women and child ren worked in the lace trade. He had been resident in Nottingham about six years, and the greatest thing that had been impressed upon his mind dining that period was the English slavery he had witnessed. He was persuaded that, both physically, socially, morally, and spiritually, the system that was em ployed by some of the manufacturers at the present time was most degrading, and unworthy of our coun try. (Loud cheers.) Although many of the manu facturers saw the bad effects of the system,and had been unable to reduce these sinl trials among their work - people, many others were unwilling to make any effort whatever to ameliorate the condition of those in their employ. Many manufacturers ad mitted that the interests of the trade would not ho materially injured were the hours of labour cur tailed. Let.them try with a strong arm to put down this bad system, and he believed that with their united exertions and the blessing of God their object would be obtained. Mr. Councillor Cox supported the resolution, stating that the Nottingham trade had for some time past been suffering from the effects of the pre vailing fashions, comparatively little lace being now worn. He thought that if this fact werejuado known to her Majesty she would (as in the case of Coventry, when the iiband trade was so depressed, and other places) bring lace again into fashion. The resolution was then carried, Mr. SIMPSON (master lacetnaker) proposed the next resolution :—" That a petition be presented to both Houses of Parliament, praying them to take in to consideration the shortening the hours of labour of women and children who 'are engaged in the Making or manufacture of lace ; and that the Earl of Shaftesbury be requested to present it in the House of Lords, and Mr. Mellor (the borough mem ber) in the House of Commons ; and that Mr. Paget be requested to support it. Mr. JAMES (operative) seconded the resolution, which was also unanimously carried. Mr. COULT (operative) proposed the next resolu tion :—"'That it is the opinion of this meeting that an agremient should he come to among the em ployers and employed, to diminish the hours of labour of men to 18 hours per diem (these hours bo=ng divided by taco b 4s) believing that it would be beneficial to both employer and employed." Mr. LONGMIRE (operative) seconded the motion, which was carried, and the meeting separated after a vote of thanks to the chairman. The Era observes of the dramatic performance at Windsor Castle on Wednesday :—" It was tho first appear ance of Miss Amy Sedgwick at the court representations, and we are informed that she acquitted herself with great credit to her own powers and the legitimate company of performers with whom she is connected. Miss Reynolds was to have played the character of Helen, but not having recovered from her long and serious illness, was unable to appear. In this emergency Mr. Duckstone suggested Miss Swanborough, who, when a member of the Haymarket Theatre, had frequently sustained the character, and which she did on this occasion with great suceess ; indeed, it has been stated that the performance of this evening was one of the most, if not the most satisfactory ever given under the royal roof. After the supper that is always provided for the performers at the conclusion of their duties, Mr. Donne, the Examiner of Plays, rho is entrusted with the direction of the royal dramatic representations, conveyed to the com against the pany a most gracious message that he had received from Sir Charles Philips." THE KING OF DENMAIIIi AND lIIS WIFF..—A. even close up t v s e o r n ;h o e f re a , scandalous up to letter from Copenhagen says :—" The agitation Countess Danner, the morganatic wife of the King, is gain impudent description against the Countess • the in g g i r t o te u s n o l f a t t he e( gr n i l a l tri n b . urg E , are sung without the least ceremony, or even Opposition.

The following order relative to an increased supply of ammunition has been issued to all mili tary storekeepers, by order of the Secretary of State for War : " The Secretary of State for War having been requested by the General Commanding in Chief to establish at the military store stations where mili tary practice is carried on a sufficient supply of ammunition and other stores to meet the annual demand for practice and exercise, in order to pre vent the delay which often occurs from their hav ing been supplied from WOolwich, you are in formed that the commanding officer has been in structed to furnish you annually with a probable estimate of such stores as you may require during this year. You will, therefore, previously to the preparation of ;our annual demand, apply to the officer commandine• the Royal Artillery for this es timate, iu order that ample provision may be made for the service. You will act rightly in keeping up a proportion of these stores, equal to a year an d a half or two years' expenditure, according to the distance of your station from the sources of supply. As a general rule you will consider yourself re sponsible for the completion of all demands upon your depot, and for any delay arising from defi ciencies which should have been foreseen and pre vented by means of your annual demand. Your attention is also directed to the inconvenience that too often occurs from the defective manner in which stores are described, a common name being used without specifying the particular variety required. as to kind, size, weight, &c. The Secretary of State for War desires that the fullest information may in all cases be given, in order to prevent unnecessary correspondence and delay. " B. HAWES." The following order has also been issued by the Secretary of State for War : _ _ " Mr. Secretary Herbert desires that in future the following classification of gunpowder in all magazines shall be observed : " Class 1.

Returned powder considered fit for filling shells. " Class 4. Returned powder fit for filling shells after being restored. _ " Class G. Condemned powder, only fit for ex 'action. " Samples of any powder which may be damaged, or much caked, are to be forwarded from home stations to the Superintendent, Royal Gunpowder Factory, for his decision as to the best course to be adopted. "At foreign stations the recommendations for the disposal of such condemned powder are to be made by the fire-master at the station, subject to the approval of the general or other officer com manding, who will forward the same for the deci sion of the Secretary of State for War.
