OF A CONVlCT.—Yesterdny morning, as a gang of convicts were employed moving tim ber at the bank of the saw -mills adjoining the main guard at the north part of Portsmouth dockyard, ono of them, !lamed James Paul (No. 6,078), ma naged to evade the vigi lance of the warder who had the p, arty in charge, and was not rec ')apturdd until 3.36 p.m., when he was found by the Police hi dden among some stores at the north-end of the st eam factory . THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 11, 1860. LAW INTELLIGENCE-(TTHS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL-BOLDERO V. ARUNDEL-JUDGMENT The Lord Chancellor said—The only question raised by this appeal is, whether an annuity of £6OO, directed to be paid to the appellant by the trust-deed, is a charge on the corpus as well as the income of the trust-estate. I think that the Master of the Rolls, in holding that it is a charge on the income only, is right. This does not depend on any abstract question of law, but entirely on the intention of the party, as to whether this was or was not a real charge as indicated by the deed. Tho result of my consideration of it is, that it was not a real charge but a charge on the income only. His Lordship affirmed the decision of the Master of the Rolls, and dismissed the appeal with costs. APPEAL-EOLDXRO V. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY- JUDGMENT. The Lord Chancellor said—Having carefully perused all the documents produced, and reconsidered all the arguments on both sides in this important case, I am clearly of opinion that the deeree of the Master of the Rolls ought to be affirmed. The plaintiff's claim for a retiring allowance rests upon contract, and he is bound to show, on some contract expressed or implied, that he is entitled to this al lowance by the regulations of the East India Company. I consider that the plaintiff has not made out his claim. His Lordship affirmed the decision of the Master of the Rolls, and dismissed the appeal with costs. ROLLS' COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls and a Special Jury.) MORRISON V. BARROW.-TRIAL BY JURY AND MOTION FOR DECREE, PART HEARD. The further hearing of this cause was resumed this morning at ten o'clock. Richard Barrow, defendant, was examined by Mr. Lusb. He said—The amount of railway charge and demurrage is the cause of difference between me and plaintiff. Mr. Heiton attends my office and carries out my orders. His salary is £5OO per annum, and 5 per cent. on capital. I was not at Derby on Friday, 29th July. I was then in London. I did not know of, and did not authorise Mr. Heiton to enter into the agreement in question. When I returned from the Continent, in July, he told me there was a one-sided agreement proposed, but it was not entered into. The case was proeeeding when we went to press. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) A ROYAL BRITISH BANK VICTIM.-EXTRAORDINARY REVERSI OP FORTUNE.-WHITRIIEAD V. EMRICH. This was an action to recover £3 15s. for one quarter's salary alleged to be due as under. Plaintiff's brother said that he and defendant occupied offices in July Lust in Chapman's-buildings. Witness made an arrangement with defendant that plaintiff, a youth out of employment, should be a clerk between them, each party paying him £l5 per annum. Defendant had paid no salary, hence the present action. Mr. Buchanan, for defendant, cross-examined the witness as to whether he did not owe defendant a sum of money. Witness—No; he owes me money. He was in the Queen's Bench, and I took him through the Court. Mr. Buchanan—Oh ! don't talk about the Bench. You know the way there. Witness—Yes. Mr. Buchanan.—Did not the defendant keep you whiles you were there. Witness—No.' An entry of a £5 loan was shown in defendant's scrib bling diary, but Mr. Beard, for plaintiff, objected to its being put in. The witness, however, admitted an lOU for £l, produced. and demanded of the prisoner where he had obtained the ingot, to which he replied, "I have found it." The officer asked him where he found the copper. The prisoner said, "I shall not tell you, and you will get no more infor mation from me." The prisoner was taken into custody, and remanded by Mr. Selfe until this day. Captain Robert Nicholls, master of the ship Ardbeg, now attended, and identified the ingot of copper, and said it had been stolen from the ship. He knew it by a mark upon it. 1 here were 2,000 cakes of copper on board, and they be longed to her Majesty's Government. He did not know how the prisoner managed to get the copper out of the dock. Mr. Selfe —Nor I. The constables and gate-keepers keep a good look out generally. John Donahoo, a labourer, saw the prisoner on board the ship Ardbeg on Wednesday last. The prisoner descended the fore hatch into the main hold, where the copper was stowed. He did not see the prisoner leave the ship. Mr. Selfe—Here is a ship with a valuable cargo, public property, and a thief is enabled to carry away a large ingot of copper in open day. Mr. Gomm, from the office of Mr. Charles Young, soli citor, who cross-examined the witnesses, said—The prisoner, acting upon his (Mr. Gomm's) advice, would plead guilty to the unlawful possession of the copper. Mr. Selfe--Unlawful possession ? If I commit him it will be for stealing. Mr. Gomm—He will plead guiity. Mr. Selfe received the prisoner's plea, and after remark ing that there was no doubt he stole the copper, convicted him of larceny andsentenced him to five months' imprison ment and hard labour. Plaintiff was called, and said he heard the engagement made between the last witness and defendant. Each party was to pay Xl5 per annum. _ _ It transpired after the conviction that the prisoner was convicted in the early part of last year, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment for a similar robbery. Mr. Buchanan. then said that there was no engagement, and that even if there was it was as follows :—Plaintiff's brother owed money. Defendant agreed to take plaintiff as clerk, the bro Cher to pay him, and the amount so'paid to go against his debt with defendant. He called Defendant, who was very deaf, and commenced a very long and, indeed„ an almost interminable story. Ho said that he took the first witness out of the Bench, and they (defendant and Sir. Whitehead) afterwards occupied a suit of offices. It was agreed that they should pay the laundress 6s. per week between them. Ho (defendant) paid the 12s. for two weeks because Whitehead had no money. He had not twelvepence. Tie hadn't paid his rent—in fact ho never paid• Witness did not engage the plaintiff as a clerk. Why Whitehead didn't even pay for having his name written up. (Laughter.) PORT REGULATIONS AT S4NTA CRUZ (T.L'N.ERIFFE.) His Honour—lt appears they were partners. They had a joint interest in the clerk (laughter), and in the laundress. (Roars of laughter,) Mr. Beard—• Very little of what defendant has been stating is evidence. The annexed correspondence has been forwarded for publication : " Madrid, Dec. 26, 1859, "My Lord,—l have the honour to transmit herewith to your lordship the copies of a correspondence which I have had with the Government of her Catholic Majesty respect ing the regulations of the Board of Health at Santa Cruz de Tenoriffo, by which all vessels entering that port were compelled to anchor to leeward of the town, and to pay pi lotage to the pilotboat sent out to show them the anchorage. Your lordship will observe, from M. Calderon Collantes' note, that these vexatiousregulations were suppressed bythe Governor of the Canary Islands as soon as his Excellency became acquainted with their having been adopted.—l have, &c., " ANDREW BUCHANAN.

" Sir,—T have the honour to call your Excellency's atten tion to a notice, of which a copy is enclosedherewith, which was addressed by the Provincial Board of Health of Santa Cruz to her Majesty's Consul for the Canary Island, stating that all vessels arriving at that port shall, as a sanitary urea - sure, anchor to leeward of the town, and that a pilot will be sent to them for that purpose, for which they shall pay pilotage, whether they receive a pilot on board or not. As this regulation is inconsistent with the royal order upon pilotage, according to which it is not obligatory on vessels to take pilots, I have to request that your Excellency will move the competent authority that it may be rescinded, and that any pilotage exacted from the masters of British vessels, in contravention of the Royal Order, may be re turned to them.—l avail, &c., "ANDREW BUCHANAN, " To Don Saturnino Calderon Collantes."

Defendant—To push Whitehead on; and— Mr. Beard (out of all patience)—Mr. Deaf Burke—upon my word, ono vrould think you were the original great Deaf Burke—pray attend to me. Now, you have thrown out insinuations about Mr. Whitehead never paying; how many times have you been bankrupt ? Defendant—You are making it a personal matter, sir, and I will not submit. (With much feeling)—T was once one of the richest men in London. I lost £lO,OOO in the Royal British Bank. (Sensation.) I was the original petitioning creditor. It ruined me. His Honour—ls this so ? " Sir,—l have the honour to inform you, in reply to your note of October last, that immediately on the Governor of the Canary Islands becoming acquainted with the decision of the Board of Health of Santa Cruz de Teneriffe, dated the 7th of the preCeding September, by which all vessels putting into that port were compelled to take a pilot, he gave directions that the said decision should remain with out effect, as being in opposition to the provisions of the Royal Order of the 26th September, 1850, thus anticipating the wishes expressed by you in your above-mentioned note. —I avail, &c., • Mr. Beard—Yes. fie - Was the petitioning creditor. Defendant—Ah. I ask John Linklater ; he will tell you. Then I accepted accommodation bills for a gentleman (a late Common Councilman), whom I believed to be worth a million, and he broke. I didn't owe a penny, but I was forced into the " Gazette," and the Commissioner with• held my certificate for six months; but I have it now. Mr. Beard —In whose name did you carry on business in Chapman's-buildi 1161 i ? Defendant —Lee. I didn't like that eld friends should see my name up. Lee is my brother-in-law. He is a gentleman. He his money. I had some once. Defendant then generally denied that plaintiff was his clerk ; and his Honour, after reading an entry in the scrib bling diary, gave him a verdict with costs. S ECONDARIES' COURT. (Before Mr. Potter and a Jury.) SEVERAL TITTLY3LEN FINED FOR NON-ATTENDANCE. This day the jury list was called over, and five jurymen were fined 40s. and issues for continued non-attendance. The officer of the court reported that many of the absen tees had been very regular in their attendance, and they were excused. Mr. Wesley--If they are excused, I, who have been equally attentive, should also be excused. The learned Secondary remarked that the juryman speak ing must go into the box. It should be known that six weeks' suit and service here renders it unnecessary for the attendance of jurymen at the Central Criminal and Law Courts for a considerable period of time.

She was ordered to britrig up the supper, when she put her arms akimbo and refused to do so, and threatened to scratch his eyes out.

STEALING COPPER PRO;I.ASIIIP.—John Reynolds, 21, labourer, of Now Martin-street, Whitechapel, was breugh:3 before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing an ingot of copp sz weighing 581bs , the value of 605., the property of her Mrs jesty the Queen. The ship Ardbeg, lying in the London Docks, and bound to Calcutta, was lately taking in as part of her cargo 2,000 ingots of copper on account of her Majesty's Governmel it, which is to be converted into coin in the East Indies. The Ardbeg has also on board 100 boxes of copper coin alrea 111 manufactured at the Royal Mint. On Tuesday last Da - rid Sutherland, a police-sergeant, 46 K, saw the prisoner ei dor a marine-store shop in High-street, Shadwell, and offer fog• sale a large ingot of copper, which was put into a scale and about to be weighed when Sutherland walked into the loop CORN EXCHANGE. A moderate supply of English wheat has come to hand since Monday; neyertheles, the show of samples of both red and white qualities hero to-day was limited. On the whole, the demand ruled steady, and prices were well sup ported. There was a fair inquiry for foreign wheat, the supply of which was by no means extensive, at full quotations. Floating cargoes of grain commanded more attention. We have to report a steady sale for most descriptions of barley at fully previous currencies. The dealings in malt were semewhat limited. Prices, however, wore supported. Oats were in fair r:quest, but we have to improvement to notice in their value. Beans and peas were very dull.

INCREASE OF LUNACY.—The returns presented to the Essex Quarter Sessions last week exhibited a melan choly increase in the number of patients in the county lunatic asylum. In 1854, the total was 307; in 1855, 334; in 1856. 370 ; in 1857, 399 ; in 1858, 406 ; and in 1859, 419. The proportion of female patients considerably ex ceeds that of the other sex, the numbers being 212 women, and 177 men. In the Norfolk county asylum there are at present 331 patients—vz., 146 men and 185 women. This is an increase of five as compared with the preceding quar ter, and of about 30 during the last six years. THE LATE ELOPEMENT.—A rumour, well authen ticated, has obtained publicity during the last few days to the effect that Mrs. Smith Bannerman, who eloped a fort night since with the Rev. A. W. Green, curate of Ilunton next Dartford, was, with her paramour, on the evening of her flight, put on board the Australian clipper-ship Blervie Castle, subsequently wrecked in the Channel, when all on board were lost. A Gravesend boatman, mho professes to have had a knowledge of Mr. Green, has deposed to the fact of having taken that gentleman off to the ill-fated ship on the night in question with a lady closely muffled, whose de scription exactly coincides with that of Mrs. Bannerman.

RESIGNATION OF THE DIRECTORS A numerously attended meeting of the proprietors in the Great Ship Company was held this day at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street. The room selected for the purpose was rather a small one, and long before the pro ceedings commenced it was crowded almost to suffocation. As soon as Mr. Campbell, the chairman of the board of directors, entered the room, a request was made that the meeting should adjourn to the large room, but he said in the roo:u mentioned nobody could be heard. The SECRBTAILY then read the advertisement con vening the meeting, and a number of notices of motion that had been given by several proprietors, the majority of which were to the effect that the present board of directors did not possess the confidence of the proprie tors. A scene of confusion here ensued, owing to the crowded state of the room, amidst which there were loud cries of "Adjourn, adjourn," " It's been done on purpose," &c. The request for adjournment, however, became so unani mous that the meeting ultimately adjourned to the large room amidst loud cheers. A desperate rush was then made by all present up stairs, a number of gentlemen carrying the chairs with them. Upon order being restored, the Secretary then read the following report, amidst hisses, cheers, and cries of " Shame" : " The whole course of events in connection with the progress of the Great Eastern from the time of her leaving her moorings at Deptford until her arrival in Southampton water, is so well known from the able reports of the public press, that your directors consider any recapitulation per fectly unnecessary. The accounts av circulated among the proprietors show the financial position of the company as it actually stands, and the questions at issue with the con tractor being now under arbitration, your directors refrain from allusion to the matters in dispute with Mr. J. Scott Russell. Tho policy and the anxiety of your directors in having the ship completed, and her qualities tested within the earliest possible period, were fully explained to the shareholders at a previous meeting. Although the untoward accident and delays have not dimi nished the reliance of your directors on the ulti mate success and national importance of the Great Eastern, they cannot conceal from themselves that diver sity of opinion and much dissatisfaction exist ameng the shareholders, over , which your directors have no control, and they have, therefore, unanimously come to the resolu tion, that is due to you and to themselves, to place their re signation in your hands, and they only retain office until you appoint their successors. The auditors retire by virtue of the provisions of the articles of association, and your directors have resolved that a special meeting of the share holders shall be convened for Wednesday, the 25th inst., for the virpose of electing directors and auditors, and for such other business as may occur. Owing to the un foreseen circumstances before referred to, your directors . have been obliged to exercise the borrowing powers of the company to the extent of £40,000 en mortgage of the ship, the loan of which sum has been ob tained from friendly sources, for'six months, at the rate of 74 pa cent. per annum, subject to a rebate, at the rate of 4 per cent., should the company elect to pay off the loan before the expiration of that period. It will be seen, on reference to the financial statement and balance-sheet, that 303,758 shares have been allotted; so that if the balance of the shares, 26,242 (to complete capital to £330,000) could be placed, it would not be necessary to rabe any large amount to clear off the existing mortgage, and enable the ship to be sent on her first mercantile voyage—bearing in mind the fact, that there are stores on board the vessel of every description, amply sufficient for an American trip. It.will be for the shareholders to decide whether the present mortgage shall be continued, or, if otherwise, how the re quisite amount shall be raised to pay it off, and to provide what further funds may be wanted." The CHAIRMAN in rising to move the adoption of the report, said it might be expected that he would enter in de tail into the whole of the proceedings relative to the forma tion of the company, but such would occupy too much time. But he thought it would be quite sufficient if he simply moved that the report just read be received. (Cheers.) The motion having been seconded, Mr. W. lawEs said he was anxious to take the earliest opportunity of addressing the proprietors, and he thought, without forming any judgment upon the statements of either Mr. Campbell or Mr. Magnus, the first duty of the proprietors was to look to the future, not the past. (Loud cries of "No, no," discuss the past.) After the statements of both parties had been fully inquired into ; their next duty would be to agree to a motion appointing a committee of _ _ inquiry, which motion he intended to move as an amend ment to the report of the directors. The committee of in quiry that he proposed would oonsist of five persons, three to be a quorum, who would have to inquire into all things connected with the past and future management of the company. (Cheers, and cries of "no, no.") He thought it was the duty of the proprietors to wait for the report of _ _ that committee of inquiry before they proceeded to appoint directors who would have such an amount of property to deal with. (" Hear, hear," cries of "'No," and con fusion.) After his motion had been carried, he would name the committee, who, among other things, would have to inquire into all questions of sale, purchase, or charter of the Great Ship, and to report to a meeting to be held upon the 25th inst., to which day he proposed that the pre • sent meeting should adjourn. (" No, no," and confusion, and loud calls of " Names, names.") It would be compe tent for any other person present to propose other gentle men, but the ballot would determine which of the list pro- posed was the best for all purposes. Mr. TAYLOR rose to order. He had given notice of an amendment in nearly similar terms, and he maintained it was not competent for the speaker to move his amendment. Mr. HAWES concluded by moving his amendment for appointing a committee of investigation, and the adjourn ment of the meeting till the 25th inst. for their report. (Cheers, and cries of "Name your committee.") The names he would submit after the amendment had passed. (Con- fusion.) ?he amendment having teen seconded, The Rev. Mr. NICHOLSON said he wished to move as an amendment to that, " That the report just read be received and that the resignation of all the directors---(Confusion). The CHAIRMAN said the rev, gentleman was out of order. Mr. NICHOLSON—The objection of the chairman is a side-wind, to shuffle inquiry. (Uproar, and cries of "Taylor, Taylor.") Mr. TAYLOR said when he heard of the resignation of the directors, he thought a bright prospect had began to dawn on their affairs. (Cheers.) He looked upon the com mittee proposed as a clap-trap, in order that the resignation of the directors might not be received. It was a curious coincidence, but he thought the names Mr. Hawes would propose, wore those of gentlemen to whom the board of di rectors had no objection. (Confusion.) That they very nearly corresponded with those who had been transmitted to Mr. Alderman Hodson, of Birming ham—(great confusion)—by the directors, as a committee with himself (Mr. Alderman Hodgson) to investigate the position of the company. (Hisses and confusion.) Mr. Alderman HoDsox explained that he had been in correspondence with the directors, but as to a knowledge of any gentleman prbposed to act with him he had not the slightest acquaintance. The names of gentlemen mentioned in the communication were Air. Miles, Mr. Hope, Mr. Baker, and his own. (The explanation of the proprietor calmed the meeting to a certain extent, but on his resuming his seat, there was loud cries of " llawes, Hawes," "Names, names.") Mr. HAWES said he had no objection to mention the names of his eommittee. They were Alderman Rose, Alderman Hodson, Mr. Baker (one of the directors of the old company), Mr. Hepo, and his own (Laughter, and cries of " oh, oh.") Mr. NICHOLSON—How many hlve the directors nomi nated ? Mr. 11.1 w ES—None. A long and personal discussion then ensued, in which the Rev. Mr. Nicholson, Mr. Baker, Mr. Sheridan, Mr. Abel, and several other persons took part, no less than six speakers addressing the proprietors at one time. At length Mr. RUSSELL said the meeting had been assembled for two hours, and had done literally nothing. Behind the directors was a party fighting at the baud, while at the table the directors were fighting against their opponents, and be tween the two the proprietors were being sacrificed. (Cries of "Hear, hear," and confusion.) Mr. MARKHAM said he believed the great ship would ultimately turn out a great success, and he regretted that the present meeting was being made a bear-garden, which could possibly do no good, but would most certainly damage their property. Another scene of indescribable confusion took place, amidst which loud cries arose for Mr. Magnus. Mr. MAGNUS said the question before the meeting was whether the meeting would accept the directors' report containing their resignation, and whether they would, in ad dition, appoint a committee to investigate the company's affairs. He did hope Mr. Hawes would make his amend ment into a substantive motion, because, in the event of not doing so the present board would still continue for some time longer directors. When the proposition to resign 'originated at the board, the directors for the first time were unanimous in its favour. He hoped under such circum stances Mr. Hawes would consent to do as he requested. Mr. HAWES declined to accede to the request of the last speaker. Mr, JACKSON urged the meeting to accept the report, and thereby the resignation of the present board. Of course the retiring, directors would have to hold office until their successors were appointed. A PROPRIETOR had no objection to the directors retiring but he objected to their doing. so until the report of a com mittee of investigation had been received. They ought, to hold office as a duty to themselves until the report he alluded to had been given in. The board was on its trial, and he did hope the meeting would not allow the directcTs to retire as they proposed. (Loud cheers.) Another scene of confusion ensued, in the midst of which the Secretary proceeded to put the amendment, and declared it negatived. Mr. ITAwEs demanded a poll. Air. JACKSON cautioned the meeting as to the use of the proxies they at present held, as he thought, something was intended which was not at present clear. Mr. LLOYD, the legal adviser of the company, after a great deal of confusion, attempted to explain the use to be made of the proxies. A section of the meeting objected to receive any opinion from any person not a share holder of the company, a loud call was made for Mr. Le verson, the solicitor of the company, to explain the point. Mr. LEVERSON, after some difficulty, told the meeting that the proxies issued could be used upon this and every other question to be submitted to this or any other adjourned meeting. The opinion of Mr. Lloyd, who advised the board, was that the present meeting must adjourn, in order that a poll might be taken. Mr. MAGNUS, jumping on the table, said if the chairman vacated his seat he would take it, in order that the other business of the meeting might be transacted. Seine of the shareholders then commenced quarrelling, during which the terms "no gentleman," "coward," "sneak," "scoundrel," and " dirty blackguard," were freely made use of. A SHAREHOLDER proposed that the poll bo taken im mediately. After a scene of confusion that baffles description, it was decided to open the poll immediately on Mr. Hawes's amendment, and, aftertaking votes till five o'clock, to close and re-open again at ten to-morrow morning, finally clos ing at four o'clock. The meeting then adjourned until Tueeday next. T.REATIES OF GUARANTEE. A return of unusual interest has just been issued from the Parliamentary Printing-offices. It is a catalogue raisonne of all the treaties now in force, in virtue of which this country is engaged, in any event, expressly or by construction, to interfere by force of arms, or by the contribution of a military contingent or pecuniary subsidy, in the affairs of foreign nations. The first treaty mentioned is that signed at Lon don the 19th of April, 1839, between Great Britain, Austria, France, Prussia, Russia, and the Nether lands, relative to the separation of Belgium from Holland, and cancelling the treaty signed at Vienna on the 31st of May, 1815, by which those coun tries were united. The new territorial arrangement is "placed under the guarantee" of England, Aus tria, France, Prussia, and Russia. The next treaty referred to is fiat regulating the sovereignty of Greece, which is "placed under the guarantee" of England, France, and Russia. After this folletvs the treaty between the five great Pow ers, regulating the affairs of Neufchatel and Valengin, signed at Paris May 26, 1857, by which the King of Prussia renounces all sovereign rights over the State of Neufchatel, which thenceforward becomes a part of the Swiss Confederation. Next we have a number of old treaties between this cow, try and Portugal ; the first mentioned bring one of alliance signed at London June 10, 1373. The " Lord Edvvard, King of England and France," agrees to be the" true, faithful, constant,"&e. friend of the King of Portugal. There are several other treaties with Portugal besides this, amongst which is one signed at Lisbon May 16, 1703, in which it is agreed that, " if ever it shall happen that the Kings of Spain and France, either the present or future ; that both of them together, or either of them separately, shall make war, or fire occasion to sus pect that they intend to make war upon the king dom of Portugal, either on the continent of Europe or in its dominions beyond seas •,, her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, and the lords the States 'General, shall use their friendly offices with the said Kings, or either of them, in order to persuade them to observe the terms of peace towards Portu gal, and not to make war upon it. But these good offices not prov ing successful, but altogether ineffec tual, so that war should be made by the aforesaid kings, or either of them, upon Portugal, the above mentioned Powers 'of Great Britain and Holland shall make war, with all their forces, upon the aforesaid kings or king who shall carry hostile arms in Portugal ; and towards the war which shall be carried on in Europe they shall supply 12,000 men, whom they shall arm and pay, as well when in quarters as in action ; and the said High Allies shall be obliged to keep that number of men complete by recruiting it from time to time at their own expense." Furthermore, it is provided that "if the aforesaid Kings of pain and France, or either of them, shall make war, or give occasion to suspect that they intend to make war, upon the provinces or dominions of Portugal beyond seas, the above-mentioned Powers of Great Britain and Holland shall furnish to his Portuguese Majesty such a number of men-of-war as shall be equal, or even superior, to the ships of the enemy ; so that he may be Able not only to oppose them, but even to prevent such an attack or invasion, as low , as the war shall last, or occa s i on requ i re . A n d if t he enemy shall take any town or seize any place which they moy fortify, in the foresaid provinces and do minions beyond seas, these succours shall continue until such town or place be fully recovered, or more towns and places, if more should be taken." After these articles follow others, binding the King of Portugal to " use his friendly offices" with the Kings of Spain and France, or either of them, if they should show any inclination t o ma k e war upon Great Britain, and in the event of their doing so to assist the Sovereign of Great Britain, " with all his force," and to do all for Great Britain which that Power binds herself to do for him. We now come to the treaties of 1815. First we have the " General Treaty ,signed in Congress at Vienna on the 9th of June, 1815," reducing in the first place the territories of the King of Saxony, and " guaranteeing" the King. of Prussia in the posses sion of those portions which were added to his do minions. The treaty then proceeds to regulate the boundaries of the new territory. The next treaty mentioned is one between Great Britain and France, and Sweden and Norway, signed at Stockholm on the 17th November, 1855, the object of which is to secure' the integrity of the Swedish and Norwegian territories against any. Russian encroachment. " His Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway, engages not to cede to nor to exchange with Russia, nor to permit her to occupy, any p trt of the territories belonging to the crowns of Sweden and Norway. His Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway engages further not to cede to Russia any right of pasturage, or fishery, or of any other nature whatsoever, either on the said territories or upon the coasts of Sweden and Norway, and to resist any pretension which may be put forward by Russia with a view to establish the existence of any of the rights aforesaid." In the event of any such pretension being put for ward by Russia, the King of Sweden and Norway engages to communicate with the other parties to the treaty ; and they, on their part, engage "to furnish to his Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway sufficient Laval and military forces of his said Majesty for the purpose of resisting the pre tensions or aggression of Russia. The description, number, and destination of such forces shall, if oc casion should arise, be determined by common agreement between the three Powers." The treaty between the five great Powers and Sardinia and Turkey, signed at Paris on the 30th of March, 1856, is next given. " ller Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, his Majesty the Emperor of the French, his Ma jesty the King of Prussia, his Majesty the I;mperor of All the Russias, and his Majesty the King - of Sardinia, declare the Sublime Porte admitted to participate in the advantages of the public law, and system concert) of Europe. Their Majesties engage, each on his part, to respect the indepen dence and the territorial integrity of the ()Lib man Empire ; guarantee in common the strict observ ance of that engagement ; and will, in consequence, consider any act tending to its violation as a ques tion of general interest." In addition to this there is another treaty between Great Britain, Austria, and France, guaranteeing the independence and integrity of the Ottoman Em pire, and then comes the treaty about the Danubian Principalities, signed on the same day by the seven Powers. The Principalities are guaranteed by the contracting Powers in their privileges and immu nities. The last treaty mentioned in the return is that signed in 1850 between the United States and Eng land, establishing the neutrality of a ship canal through the isthmus of Panama, should such an undertaking be realised. PRTCE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Palm is about per milled, and the short exchange on London is 25.10 per 11 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 10Id. per ounee for standard gold,,it appears that gold is at about 2-10ths per tent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.36- per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is therefore about 3-10ths per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of ex change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 10U per cent., which, when compared with the Mint proportions between the two countries, shows that the ex change is slightly against England ; and, after makine allowance for charges of transport and difference of inte rest, the present rate leaves no profit on the importation of gold from the United States,
