LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 18, 1865. I The troubles in New Zealand have been of long standing, and to the original elements of discord and confusion has been added the evil of a divided authority. The dissensions between the Governor and the General have certainly not tended to ac celerate the conclusion of the war ; and the general feeling of dissatisfaction and contradiction is strongly contrasted with the unanimous expresbion of confidence and courage which despatched Gene ral CAMERON to his first campaign. It is difficult under such complicated circumstances to say where the blame lies ; but it is chiefly due, no doubt, to the divided counsels. So long as the mother country took the whole expense of the colonial wars it was natural that the direction of affairs should be left almost entirely to the head military authority, but now that the colonists are called upon to pay . half, they think, with some show of reason, that they have a right to have a voice in the manage ment. In many respects it would seem to be the best and simplest way of settling matters to leave the affairs to the colonists. They are quite able to subdue the natives, and if the war were pushed on with a vigour and unity of purpose, there can be no doubt that it would produce much more satis .factory results. Nothing can be more harassing and vexatious than one of these long, uncertain half- fought wars, which drag their slow length along, causing death, disease, and suffering, besides press ing heavily on the taxpayers, and retarding the social and commercial progress of the people and the development of the country. The manner in which the war has lately been conducted has been most unsatisfactory, and it is well known that the Governor and the Generals have been at open variance on several points. Some of the differences may have arisen, and probably have done so, from misconception of orders, but it is quite clear that when they have reached the stage of the Governor stating in his address to the Assembly that the Imperial forces were precluded by their orders from taking an active part against the enemy on a recent occasion, and the General denying 4 this statement in the Auckland newspapers, it is impossible for the joint system to work any longer. The Home Government in se nding out the troops placed them under the sole government of the General, and left the option of sending any of them home in his hands. The colo nists, though grateful to England for her prompt assistance, have lately arrived at the conclusion that the war wouldbe more effectually carried on by a colo nial force which would penetrate the bush, which is always the Maories' stronghold, and which they well know the regular troops will not enter. General CA3IER.ON, when urged to send hom e some of the Imperial forces, declined to do so, andthe alteration in the whole system is mainly due to the resolute attitude adopted by the WELD M nu • • stry. Mr. WELD and his colleagues informad the Governor that it was their intention to resign as soon as they had 'stated the case to the assembly, but the Gover nor having represented the state of affairs to Mr. CARDWELL, the power of removal was transferred by the Home Government from General CAMERON to Governor GREY. Consequently the Governor expressed his readiness to accept the advice of Mr. WELD, and five regiments have been ordered home. The capture of the Wereroa pah, which has long been so long a f • ormidable obstacle in our path, has no doubt encouraged the advocates of the Colonial system, since not only is a bugbear removed from Commence at 7.

O . _o• the path of the colonists, but its capture has been achieved almost entirely by colonial and native troops acting under the instructions of the Governor. Full details of the capture of the pah reach us by this mail, and it seems that the Governor and the Ministry were alike anxious to achieve this great object before the meeting of the Assembly. It will be remembered that the Governor, at the invitation of the natives, went to Wanganui expecting to re ceive the submission which they had promised if he came in person to receive it. The Governor offered a free pardon (excepting, of course, the murderers known to be with them), but it soon became mani fest that their only aim was to gain time, and that they had no intention whatever of making submission. After such an affront to the Governor it was absolutely necessary to make some decided movement, and, as it was justly said, " the worst possible effect was produced by the murderers, fanatics, and turbulent natives being permitted to remain unmolested for so many months in close proximity to a British settlement and in the presence of a large British force." Con sequently, the Governor resolved that, at all risks, the pah must be captured. The manner in which he laid his plans and carried them out in the face of the most formidable difficulties reflects the highest honour upon Sir G. GREY. When success was achieved, and the pah actually in the hands of the troops, it was found, as so often has proved the case, to be empty, the natives having eva cuated it during the night. The soldiers who were to have guarded a certain route did not arrive in time, so that, unfortunately, the Akaories were able, with their accustomed shrewdness, to escape when they found their case hopeless. But the pah remains in our hands; the prestige of the natives is destroyed; a serious obstacle to conquest or peace-making re moved ; and another proof given that the most im pregnable of the native retreats must yield to civilised strength and skill. If, as is rumoured, Sir GEORGE GREY contemplates the speedy resignation of his troublesome dignity, the subjection of the Wereroa Pah will be a triumphant conclusion to his governorship. What the effect will be upon the natives remains to be seen. The new Ministry will probably carry on the war with vigour and efficiency, and will be very likely to bring the problem to a rapid solution. The only drawback to the new systen. of the colonists settling the affair their own way is that men are not always to be trusted as judges in their own cause, and there can be no doubt that, in many instances, unfair advantage has been taken of the natives in the matter of the lands. Some check should therefore be kept over the civil arrangements of the relationship between the natives and the settlers, and if the latter are in clined to resent English interference, they may re member that, however well able to deal with hordes of undisciplined savages, they may not be equally capable of defending New Zealand against the ag gression of a foreign Power. Future generations can turn to this episode of Schleswig-Holstein whenever they wish to study a particular instance of injustice and spoliation, car ried on, too, with consummate assurance and un blushing effrontery. Everything we hear on the subject only seems to make the matter worse ; and, really, it will be a relief when the question is dropped or superseded by the occurrence of more startling events. The official statement that has just ap peared of the conclusions arrived at by the Crown lawyers of Prussia is one of the most disgraceful statements that has come before the public for some time, and furnishes the best proof yet met with of the inconsistency and cunning of Prussia. We all remember, though some may find it convenient to forget, how eagerly Lord RUSSELL and the other supporters of Berlin policy, declared to the House of Commons over and over again that the allied Powers of Germany had no intention of possessing themselves of the Duchies, but that they merely went to war in order to satisfy the German Princi palities, and to set forward the just claims of those who affirmed that the Duchies did not belong to the King of DENMARK. If there was one thing more than another that was insisted upon, it was that King CHRISTIAN had no real right to these disputed territories. If the war was for one thing more than another it was to wrest these from the rule of the Danish Monarch. Yet we are now told that after the most scrupulous investigation, and the most searching endeavours, the learned and astute lawyers of Berlin have discovered that the Duchies really belonged to King CHRISTIAN. If this be the case, the authorities of Austria and Prussia stand convicted before the world of downright robbery. The whole course of the transactions which have been carried on in this Schleswig-Holstein affair has been signalised by treachery of the deepest dye and falsehood to an inordinate extent, and we may fairly state that it has now reached the culminating point of iniquity and baseness. It is an insult to the other nations of Europe that two of the great Powers should thus conduct themselves, and violate the rights of nationalities. Why was there such haste to make war if the proper steps had not been taken to discover who was the rightful owner of the Duchies? Why was peace concluded upon such terms that a satisfactory adjustment of disputed claims was impossible on the part of Denmark ? These are questions that cannot be answered, and the reason is that it is all a sham and a pretence. The Prussian rulers no more believe that King CHRISTIAN is the real possessor of the Duchies now, anti has yielded up his claims to them, than they thought some time back that he was not the rightful owner. It suited their turn then, as it suits it now, to make extravagant assertions ; but they may go too far in their craft and cunning, and end by overreaching themselves. It is almost too irritating to peruse the statements set forth by the Berlin Crown lawyers on this vexed question. The conclusion they arrive at is, that the succession-law of 1853, legally the " hereditary succession" to the three countries, but that King CHRISTIAN ceded his rights to the Crowns of Aus tria and Prussia, and that, therefore, the " two allied Powers,, in, disposing of the Duchies, are not bound to recognise other hereditary claims." Indeed, the statement goes on to say, that "it fol lows from these resolutions that the question does not in any degree whatever depend upon the eluci dation of former hereditary rights. " Can anything be more preposterous than this, when we remember the extraordinary parade that was made about the justness of the claims of the Duke of AUGUSTENBUIIG. The Crown Prince of Prussia was his great ally, and together sallied forth to face the foe, and drive him from his stronghold in Holstein. It would seem as if Prussia was totally oblivious of all ties of honour, truth, and consistency. They are considered as " airy nothings" that do for some srupulous nations, but are quite beneath the notice of heaven-inspired rulers. The great indulgence of King WILLIAM has, however, per mitted the Crown lawyers to inquire into the ques tion of the claims of the Duke of AUGUSTENBURG, and that unfortunate individual must feel highly honoured and deeply grateful for such an act of grace and condescension. lie has only bad news to learn, however, and can truly exclaim with the Psalmist, " Oh, put not your trust in Princes, for THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDA Y EVEMG, OCTOBER IS, 186 F there is no help them." He has been made a tool of, and now that he has served his turn he is put aside as a worn-out garment. All the details concerning the matter of the renun ciation of the DUKE'S father were quite as patent to the world two years ago as now, and why should any encouragement be given to the DUKE if his claims were null and void ? It is, however, all alike, friends or foes must make up their minds to be hoodwinked and deceived by the unscrupulous and overbearing Government of Berlin. It is now as serted that Herr von BISMARK is well pleased with the result of his visit to France. If so, it bodes ill to the cause of progress, and the chances are further off than ever of rights being re spected and principle prevailing in the councils of Europe. As in the Eastern fable of the ravens who rejoiced at the reign of a king who made devas tating war, so the lovers of misrule and oppression can consider their star in the ascendant when the great Minister of Berlin thinks his plans are flourishing. It is quite impossible to overrate the importance of the course pursued by our Govern ment in dealing with this German-Danish question. The absurd partiality that was shown to Prussia throughout virtually decided the matter, and all the Conferences that took place, and the despatches that were written, became but as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal in settling the matter or influencing the chief actors. It is too much the fashion to dwell only upon the immediate point of discussion before us, and to overlook the long train of events that have led to an important issue. Deep-set in, imperishable records is placed, however, the history of this Schleswig-Holstein transaction, and the fraud and cunning that have distinguished its chief actors are blots on their reputation that can never be effaced, but will remain fixed in the memories of men, while coming generations shall read the history of the past. The eternal principles of honour and justice, which are above and beyond all political considera tions, have also been grossly violated by these un scrupulous tacticians of the German Powers.

Illustrated Edition. Smith, Elder, and Co. An exquisite edition, in a single volume, very cleverly illustrated, has here been published by the Messrs. Smith, Elder, and Co.—of " Romola," by many considered George Eliot's masterpiece. That it was designed by her to be her masterpiece, seems to us to be indicated plainly enough by the mere tone of the eloquent, alm6st rythmical, and through out eminently poetical Proem, constituting the introduction to this mediaeval Romance. Yet highly elaborated though the narrative is, as a work of art, we cannot but still give the palm of pre-eminence as well as of precedence to the gifted writer's earlier tale of " Adam Bede." Portions, too, of "The Mill on the Floss," as, for example, all the passages relating to the Tullivers, to the discrimination of character among those stupid old provincial dowdified sisters, the quarrel even between Tom and Maggy about the apricot jam tart—have a value for us far beyond these loftier day-dreamings of George Eliot's genius in the three books of " Romola." But " Adam Bede " and all that makes up the excellence of that delightful work—the two brothers Seth and Adam—the Dis senting Preacheress, Dinah the Methodee !—the lovely, coquetish, blooming, frail, fallen Dairymaid, who is the victim of Squire Donnythorne's passion —above all, beyond all, the immortal Mrs. Poyser ! No—it is justrabsolutely impossible that we can ever come to recognise in all the unquestionable power , manifested by George Eliot in her great Prose-Poem of " Romola," anything beyond those rarer excel lencies lavished by her upon the homelier theme of "Adam Bede." Claiming for " Adam Bede," how ever, the right of being still regarded as George Eliot's masterpiece, there still remains an ample amount of admiration to be accorded by her readers to the merits of "Romola." And for the issue of a work so remarkable, as " Romola" in a form so popular, so compact, so accessible and, in its pictorial adorn ments, so radiantly attractive as the present edition, the publishers are certain of winning to them selves the acknowledgments of all true lovers of what is best among the more remarkable contri butions, of late years, to the imaginative literature of Europe.

BAPTISMAL FEES.—Yesterday an application was made at the Judges' Chambers to Mr. Justice Byles, to remove by writ of certiorari a plaint from the Dover County Court to one of the superior courts. The action, it appears, was brought by a clergyman against the Poor-law Guardians to recover his fees for baptising pauper children. The application was opposed on the part of the clergyman. The learned judge, however, gr;uted the ap plication, observing that he could not say that points of law would not arise in such a case. In reply to a question whether the usual terms as to security for costs would be imposed, his lordship said that, looking at the position of the parties, there was no necessity for such an order. The action will thereforo be tried in one of the superior courts • THRILLING SCENE.—On Sunday, while the fire in the woods at Cedar Swamp was at its height, an extra train of 16 cars, bringing the Fourteenth Maine Regiment on their way home to Augusta, came over the Eastern Railroad. On either side of the track tho flames rose 40 feet high, the noise drowning the sound of the train. It was a fearful sight to behold. The oil on the wheels took fire, and along the train was seen revolving wheels of fire, while the 700 officers and men of the gal lant Fourteenth were nearly smothered in the dense smoke. Fortunately the long train drawn by the Cape Ann went through the terrible ordeal without accident; and as the cars emerged beyond the burning district, the smoke rushed from the car windows into the air, giving an appearance of a train on fire.—Portsmouth (N. B.) Chronicle, Sept.lB. How TO RUIN A SOLDIER.- - I am not only quite sure that no soldier was ever reformed by the lash —that not only have good men become bad after its inflic tion, and that no bad man ever became good after being flogged—but I am also equally convinced that the sight of this punishment is very far indeed from being a wholesome example. The non-commissioned officers of a regiment hear and see a very great deal of which the commissioned officers are in utter ignorance. In the English army there are so very few officers who have been promoted from the ranks, that between the officers' and sergeants' mess-rooms there is a gulf which it is almost impossible to span. How ever well meaning and professionally zealous an officer may be, he knows nothing whatever of the feelings or the opinions—the prejudices, if you like—of the men ho com mands. There is an idea among officers that the example of the lash is good, and will deter many from evil. I know as a fact that the exact contrary is the case. I never yet heard even the best-behaved soldiers say among them selves that any man condemned to be flogged had deserved his sentence. But I have not heard, not once, twice, nor a dozen times during my long term of service, but every time a soldier was tied up to the triangles, no matter how great a scoundrel he had been—no matter even if he had robbed his room-mates, which, in the soldier's code of laws and morality, is the greatest crime of which a man can be guilty—l have in variably heard his comrades, from the moment of his being condemned to be flogged, regard him as an object of the deepest pity. But the lash is not the only punishment we have, which degrades a soldier to such an extent that he feels himself lost. When a man deserts, after he is caught he is very frequently (almost invariably) sentenced to be branded on the shoulder or back with the letter D. When I first joined the —th Light Dragoons (since transformed, as all light dragoon regiments have been, into the —th Hus sars), the corporal of my squad was as gentlemanly a young man as you would wish to see. It was rare to meet with a young fellow of such good address and correct manners in the ranks of the English army. His father was a poor clergyman, and had not the means to buy him a commis sion, and so the lad enlisted into a cavalry regiment. He had a brother-in-law in London who was well-to-do in the world, and he obtained permission to spend ten days at with C ov, l a soi t l r ho i e s gwtth t eii n oesed a drr s :aheptitle ( io.,i t eteft h eilovi r ;eve, grrisnhoefigteerniohNmov:iviaiesi over -, was then stationed in Dublin) leave, vtt faterie;better, metropolis.ondardni and one 0 el whethernTe eamhv eeetinvitationhbaChristmas ghseo isvtseven tnoeo oad relative's. dinnern,vunece shr. days— ats the end of that time returning to the Royal Barracks in Dublin, where he reported himself, and was put under ar rest. He wrote out a statement, and showed how, though ho had been guilty of over-staying his leave, he never for a moment intended to desert. But the colonel thought otherwise. This was not the kind-hearted old gentleman who commanded us some six years later, but a gentleman who had very recently exchanged into our regiment from half-pay unattached. He ordered the corporal to be tried by a garrison court-martial, and this tribunal sentenced him to be imprisoned for three months, and to be branded with the letter D in the usual manner, besides being reduced from the rank of corporal to that of a private dragoon. The sentence was carried out, and the unfortunate man never held up his head again. To drown care, he took to drinking, and in two years died of delirium tremens in the Belturbet Hospital, after having spent more days in, than out of, the regimental cells, and being tried more than once by a regimental court-martial for intoxication.—Dickens's " 411 the Year Round." IRELAND. DUBLIN, Tuesday. A correspondent of the Irish Times reports that " on Saturday night last, between 10 and 11 o'clock, a party of constabulary, under command of our active Sub-inspector, G. F. M'Clintock, Esq., visited the Midland Great Western Railway Junction, Mullingar, and, acting on previously obtained infor mation from the government, arrested one of the attendants in Mr. Jude's refreshment saloon, on whose person it was expected some treasonable do cuments connected with the Fenian Brotherhood would have been found, but after the most minute search nothing was discovered. At the same time a second party of constabulary proceeded to the house in which the suspected party resides, and searched that portion of it in his occupation, but equally without result, so that to the present it remains doubtful whether the conspiracy has found suppor ters in that locality. The peaceably-disposed inha bitants are, however, much tranquillised by the pre sence of a respectable military force, consisting of five depots—viz., 3d Buffs, 9th, two depots, 17th depot, and 146th depots, forming the 12th depot battalion, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Good enough, which arrived here from Limerick a few days since." It appears that a man named Wm. Kenny, who had been confined in Naas Gaol since the 24th ult. on a charge of Fenianism, was yesterday conveyed to town by Acting-inspector Smollen, and lodged in the College-street station. The prisoner, who had been employed as a factory operative in Manchester, will be brought before Mr. Strongo to-day. The Mail of last evening announces that within the past few days a sum of £l,OOO in gold reached Dublin by hand for the purposes of the defencs of the Fenian prisoners. At the Manorhamilton quarter sessions, the other day, says the Freeman, the chairman of the county, Mr. James Charles Coffey, Q.C., addressing the grand jury, said—" He was aware that one gentle man, who used to shoulder his pike in the fields, wrote in the morning to several parts of the country, and then deliberately walked to the police-office and had these letters copied, and also exposed every single letter coming from the Fenian Brotherhood in America. Every one of the leaders in Ireland were in custody but two, and the Government had cnly to select from, not five or six, but twenty informers." The second edition of the Belfast News Letter of yesterday announces that, in the morning about three o'clock, a boiler of a pumping-engine at New Docks, on the county Antrim side, exploded. The cause it is believed was the improper feeding of the boiler. The engineer and an attendant were killed by the accident, the latter instantaneously. ' About the most important works which have of late been started in Ireland are those of the Dublin Trunk Railway, intended to connect the various railway stations round Dublin. A reporter of the Irish Times has visited the works, and gives the following account of their progress. He tells us that " they have now been commenced in right earnest, and as the vigour with which such undertakings are begun generally measures pretty accurately the amount of credence to be attached to the promises which they held out, it cannot be premature to describe very briefly what has been done, and the manner in which the con tract is to be carried out. Long ago the expediency of a railway which should connect the great lines that reach the city was proved to the satisfaction of the public, and waiving all allusion to the discus sion before Parliamentary committees of the merits of the different schemes proposed it may safely be alleged that the plan which was ultimately sanc tioned seems fully calculated to carry out the object in view. In the hands of the Messrs. Rigby, of Westminster, the contract seems to be in a fair way of a successful and speedy fulfilment. Already a large space at the North Lotts has been surrounded by a wooden barricade, and here the operation of sinking the shaft which is to form the descent to the tunnel has been commenced. The shaft is now sunk to the depth of about 20 feet, but its total depth will be between 80 and 90 feet. Those who have seen the plans are aware that the tunnel is to pass under the bed of the Liffey, from a point about 100 yards distant from the North Wall Lighthouse to one situated near Ringsend, on the Pigeonhouse road. From this the railway will take the curve round the city in the direction of the Great Southern and Western Railway. At present only a very vague idea can be formed of the plan which the company propose to carry out. The shaft which is being sunk is 20 feet in diameter. Its sides are formed of brick, and hugh piles of materials of all kinds are accumulated near it. The difficulties at tendant upon these works are twofold. In the first place, it is necessary that the earth which has to be removed should be taken up quickly, and at a small expediture of manual labour. This is accomplished by means of an engine which moves along a tram way upon a strong wooden platform about 25 feet overhead. Whatever clay is dug by the labourers is easily brought to the surface and accumulates in large heaps upon the side of the pit. But the second and more serious difficulty is the removal of the water, which forms the chief obstacle to the works. As yet the quantity of water which has been pumped up is very inconsiderable, but the farther the shaft is sank the greater need will exist for rapid pumping. Underneath the bed of the river the presence of water must considerably impede the progress of the under taking, and accordingly the first object is 'to tho roughly drain the ground through which the shaft is being sunk. With this object a second engine has been placed on the ground level, working a pump which clears the way for the labourers, and lessens the danger of an interruption. On the sou thern side of the Liffey, near Ringsend, a shaft is to be sunk similar to this. The mechanical ar rangements are of the most perfect kind, and there is good reason to hope that the tunnel will be com plete before the appointed time. Not far from the scene of these operations is the place in which the Ballast Office is rebuilding the quay wall. A huge windlass, a gigantic steam pump, and immense piles of granite, indicate the progress which has been made. Altogether the northern bank of the Liffey, near the lighthouse, now presents a very animated aspect, and there is good reason to believe that the work to be done will be accomplished as speedily as possible." City of London Working Men's Industrial Exhibition. Last evening a public meeting of the members and friends of this movement, resident in the western district of the metropolis, was held at the Fetter-lane Chapel, Fetter-lane--W. Lawley, Esq., C. C., in the chair. The meeting was attended by a number of the working classes, and on the platform were several gentlemen of high standing in the city of London, whose names aro identified with this important movement. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business, ex plained that the proceedings were adopted by the committee who had taken the initiative in this move ment from a conviction that the object would prove most beneficial - to the interests of the working classes, and indeed the whole community. (Hear, hear.) From the progress that had been already made in this movement, there was every reason to believe in its final success. The social effect pro duced would be of the greatest advantage to both the upper and the working classes, by combining them both in one common object, for without that combination practical effect could not be given to any . such movement as the present. There were already 163 guarantors connected with the move ment, and over £.l-,800 had been collected to pro mote it. Considering the movement that had taken place on this subject in other parts of the metro polis, he thought the city of London could not be behind hand without discredit to themselves. He expressed a hope that the projected exhibition would be worthy of the city of London. Mr. WHORRALL, secretary of the association, read a report, from which it appeared that the present movement originated in a desire to afford the work ing men of the City an opportunity of exhibiting specimens of their handicraft. The result was that a memorial was signed by no less than 2,000 work ing men and presented to the Lord Moyor on the subject, which had received the greatest support from the wealthy class in the City. Two meetings were held subsequently, one of them at the Sussex Hall, presided over by the Lord Mayor, in further ance of the object of the movement. He considered that the result would be most satisfactory. Mr. PEDLER, C.C., moved the first resolution, to the effect that the movement was entitled to the support of all classes, and that the meeting should give it that support most cordially. In speak ing of the great exhibitions that had taken place in this country, he said they had been the means of educating the public taste and improving the artistic skill of the working men. He impressed on working men that excellence of workmanship, and not cheapness in production, should be aimed at. He said that the old system of apprenticeship was becoming obselete, and had been superseded by a new order of things. He reminded the meeting, however, that in order to attain excellence in any department great attention and industry were re quisite. Mr. JARMON (a working man) seconded the reso lution, which was unanimously adopted. Another supplementary resolution was agreed to, and the meeting was addressed by several gentle men, some of whom expressed a hope that the Guildhall would be granted for the exhibition. The proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman, and to the Hey. Mr. Harper for the use of the chapel. FRANCE. The Cafe de l'Ard4che, in the Rue de Turbigo, was yesterday the scene of a terrible crime. An in dividual entered and asked for a cup of coffee, and at the moment when the waiter was bringing it shot him point blank in the breast with a pistol. The murderer then attempted to destroy himself, but the ball of a second pistol deviated and lodged in the ceiling of the room. He was of course arrested. The motive of the crime is not known.

The following order of the day has just been issued in this city to the Wurtemberg army : " 1. It has been observed with displeasure that when his Majesty enters the box in the Court Theatre the officers present do not' rise all together, but upon one side later than upon the other. " 2. Officers are reminded that when the Queen enters the Royal box after the King, her Majesty is to be saluted separately. " 3. It has been repeatedly observed with dis pleasure that the guards deliver the salutes pre scribed by the regulations too late before their Majesties. The excuse that the sentry before the guard-house delayed in turning out its guard will be no longer accented, but the commandant of the post will be made personally responsible for the de livery of the salute at the proper time. "4. As mistakes have occurred in the salutes to be given to his Royal Highness the Prince Frede rick, attention is directed to the fact that the salutes prescribed for princes and princesses of the royal house in the direct line are to be delivered not be fore Frederick only, but whenever his royal high ness passes the guardhouse accompanied by his royal highness's consort, Prince Catherine. To avoid error, in case their royal highnesses should drive past the post together in a closed carriage, the footman at the back will make a sign to the sentry by raising his arm. "5. The excuse that a soldier has omitted the prescribed salute from ignorance of the King's per son will no longer be admitted. All soldiers have to make themselves well acquainted with his Ma jesty's person. For this purpose exact photographs of his Majesty are to he obtained at the regimental cost, and hung up in the barrack-rooms. " 6. The excuse that the prescribed salutes to their Majesties were omitted because, being in a close carriage, they were not recognised by the passers by, cannot be accepted. Soldiers are ad vised, in case of doubt, to deliver the prescribed salute before every closed carriage." When, in the reign of King William, his present Majesty's father, a princess complained of irregulari ties in the salutes of the posts, the King gave orders that, to prevent such irregularities in future, that princess was never to be saluted at all. The present King appears to have adopted a different system. His Majesty clearly thinks there is nothing like making sure. Lifeboat Services. NEWBIGGIN-BY , T I IE - SEA, NORTIMMBERLAND, Tuesday Night. This morning during a gale from the E. (reports the Rev. E. Mangin) a small vessel about two miles to the S.E. of Newbiggin was observed to hoist a signal of distress. The lifeboat of the National Institution was launched with the utmost despatch, but the vessel had foundered before the boat reached the spot where she had been first seen. The lifeboat succeeded, however, in rescuing the two men who had formed the crew of the vessel, and who had taken to their own small boat. From the state of the wind and sea there is little probability that this boat could have made the land, and great praise is due to the crew of the lifeboat for the promptitude they displayed. The vessel was the sloop Robert flood, of Newcastle-on -Tyne, and was bound from Glasgow to Burlington with a cargo of cast iron pipes. DARING GAROTTE ROBBERY NEAR DERBY.—One of the most daring garotte robberies ever perpetrated took place on Monday evening last, about a mile and a half from Derby, and the atrocious act has causodgreat sensation in the neighbourhood. It appears that Mr. Samuel Walter Cox (brother to Mr. W. T. Cox, M.P., Derby, and a mem ber of the Town Council) lives at Spondon-lodge, three miles from Derby. He is eeheesefactor in an extensive way of business, his warehouses being at Derby. It has been Mr. Cox's habit to drive home in the evening, but on Monday night he walked home, leaving Derby about 8 o'clock. He had got as far as Cherry-tree-hill, about a mile and a half from Derby, at a spot called " The Bushes," when ho was suddenly encountered by two ruffians. One walked quickly past him, and the other put his hands round his throat. The other ruffian then began rifling his pockets, after Mr. Cox was knocked down by them and became insensible on the road. They beat him very much about his body with their fists, and then took from his pockets the following large sums of money :—T wo £5 Bank of England notes, three £5 Derby and Derbyshire bank notes, five sovereigns, three half-sovereigns, throe shillings, a gold watch with a black riband attached, a penknife, and three keys. After the robbery the garotters pushed Mr. Cox, who was still insensible, into the ditch, and then ran away. About nine o'clock the same evening a man named Neadin was going in the direction of Spon don, from Derby, when he discovered Mr. Cox in the ditch, and carried hiin to his own residence. Neadin had previously met two men going in great haste towards Derby. Information was immediately given to Sergeant Hallam, of the Derbyshire contabulary, stationed at Spon don, who, after seeing Mr. Cox, hastened on to Derby, and gave information to the borough and county police. Mr. Fox, chief constable of the county, Mr. Whieldon, super intendent, and other officers, were busy all night in scour ing the neighbourhood, but, up to noon yesterday, we regret to say, their efforts had not been successful in cap turing the perpetrators of this diabolical outrage. Mr Cox is much injured. The Legend of the Bucklyn Shaig. You know, Miss Rose, the bend in the road as you go up to the castle from the Blackdean-road. When you have passed the park lodge a little way you come to some g roups of trees, rather c lose to g ether. It is n ot an avenue now, but it looks as if it had been some time or other, only several of the trees aro missing, and there is a pond close to the Side of the road, with a round island in it. Well, the story goes that long ago there was a very wicked Lord Clifford, who lived at Raymond Castle, for in those days the castle and the hall both belonged to the same person. This wicked Lord Clifford had murdered his wife, and buried her someNrhere in the castle. He led a bad life, and drank hard, and oppressed the poor. One day a holy Fran ciscan came to Lord Clifford to ask an alms. The baron was going out hunting. He wore a broad hunting-belt, with a great gold buckle, and he had very fierce dogs, for ho was going to hunt the wolf in the great forest under the hill. The friar asked for alms for his house and for the poor of the neighbouring hamlet, and he upbraided Lord Clifford for his cruelty to the widow and the orphan. He was a bold man that barefooted friar, but he said what he said for love of God and our Lady. Tho wicked baron got very angry, and swore at the friar, and, as the friar would not be silent, he struck him with his great hunting whip on the mouth, and the blood flowed. Then he called to his savage dogs, and they flew at the friar. They grew • mad at the sight of blood, and they tore the friar down on the ground, and there he lay half dead. But as Lord Clif ford was riding off the friar called out, " Lord Clifford, Lord Clifford, I forgive thee; but the Evil Ono will ride with thee to-night, and hold by the buckle of thy belt." Lord Clifford called off his hounds, and they followed the hunt through all the day, but when evening came Lord Clifford was missing. The huntsmen and the guests heard screams far off in the forest, but he never came back. Only all through the night they heard the sound of a horse galloping, as if backwards and forwards, just along that piece of the road opposite the small pond with the island. The horse never reached the castle, but went up and down the same distance along the road. as if the rider never could find his way home. And they do say that some times the labourers, returning home at night, have seen a horse at full gallop—there sits on him a man pale and horrid, and holding on behind, with his arms round his waist, is the devil, for all the world like a very shaggy wolf, and the peasants call it the Bucklyn Shaig; and I have been told that occasionally when some persons, who had not a very clear conscience (for I cannot believe it would happen to be a good man), have been riding down that part of the road, Bucklyn Shaig, who seems always .to haunt the place, will jump up behind the unhappy man and throw his arms round his waist, as ho is seen to do round the phantom Lord Clifford, and so will ride with him, whether he will or no, till he passes out of the shade of the trees again into the open road and over the brook ; and then the devil leaps down and jumps over the fence in the shape of a black cat. And the story goes, that when Bucklyn Shaig is seen, it is always a sign that some great crime has been committed up at the castle, or that a great misfortune is about to happen to the House of Clifford.—From the now irveb entitled " The Bu c kly n Sh a i g ," j us t p u blished by Bentley , and written by the Hon. Mrs. Alfred Montgoniery. Demerara Railway Meeting.--This,Day. The usual half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the London Tavern to-day. The report, which has already appeared in The Sun having been taken as read, Tho CHAIRMAIsI moved its adoption as well as that of the statement of accounts. He said ho had again to congratulige the shareholders on the present, and he might say the future, prospects of the company. The directors were enabled to present them with a table of increased traffic returns, and there was every reason to believe that their present prosperity would continue. The report was so very explicit in all that related to the main features of their concern that he had scarcely anything to add to its contents. The last accounts from the colony were also very satisfactory, and Mr. Martin, in his last letter, spoke of the increasing traffic. A s re g arded their passenger traffic, it had been injeuarriso,uitslywaoffuledct: by the wet weathe r ; but, if compared with the corre sponding period of the previous y found that there was a considerable increase during the past half-year. Mr. CHAMBERS, deputy-chairman, seconded the motion, which was agreed to unanimously. A dividend at the rate of 2} por cent. per annum was also agreed to, and the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. r 61111 HER MAJESTY• BALMORAL, Oct. 14.

Edward Mortlock. A choral service was celebrated. THE QUEEN AND HER LABOURS.—In proposing the toast of " The Queen" at a dinner at InverarY, on Saturday, the Duke 'of Argyll (Lord Privy Seal) said : —lt is a remarkable thing, as it has often appeared to me, how ill-informed many persons are on the practical work ing of that constitutional Government under which we live. Many of you may perhaps recollect that, some years ago, in consequence of a remarkable political incident , some explanations were made in the House of Commons upon this subject, and it really appeared almost as if many persons in this country then learned for the first time that the Sovereign of England is not and never has been amere puppet, amere nominal Sovereign ; that the Sovereigns of this country do take, and are expectedto take, an active personal share in that Government which is con ducted in their name. Now, gentlemen, I think it a circum' stance worthy of observation, and which ought to bo known to all the people of this country, that during all the years of the Queen's affliction, during which she has lived necessarily in comparative retirement, 'she has omitted no part of that public duty which concerns her as Sovereigs of this country ; that on no occasion during her grief hag she struck work, so to speak, in those:public duties which belong to her exalted position ; and although we may hope and earnestly trust that time may yet enable the Queen to do many things which hitherto she has not been able to do, yet, I am sure that when she re-appears again, as, trust she may some day do, on more public occasions, the people of this country will regard her only with increase d affection, from the recollection they will have that, during, all the time of her care and s orrow , s h e h as d evo t e d horsed' without ono day's intermission to those cares of Govern" ment which belong to her position as sovereign of thL 5 country. (Applause). -- - DRURY-LANE THEATRE.— The Vice-Chancello r had arranged to open the court yesterday in coda to hear the case of "Falconer v.

The terms are that each gentleman is to resume the position he fornieril i held in the management until th e en d o f th e season , an that if anything unsatisfactory between them remains AO to be referred to arbitration.
