Smith, Payne, and Smiths, 1, Lombard street, P..C, This Home was opened in April. 1864. It was designed to take in the little ones whose charact r and circumstances disqualify the a for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender age precludes their admission to the Rtfuges. Such are those who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are those who have been deserted by their natural protectors and left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose parents may have at one time or other received parish relief, and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose Parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who train their children in the same path. Stich are those whose evil associations have already had their painful effect, and must lead them to a life of crime and misery. I 'The necessity for an Institution for these little ones is evi dent from the police statistics, which show that in London alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under 10 years of age, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom were convicted and punished, while the bulk, 232 were dis charged by the magistrates with a rebuke, as being too young to punish, though not too young to learn the beginnings of crime. On the other hand, there are numbers who, but for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli ance and self-help be permanent burdens to the State . the Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison an the one hand, and the workhouse on the other s and to endeavour to make them useful members of society. The daily routine of the Ins itution presents all the fea tures of a home. a school, and a workshop. The little ones are cared for as children ; they have their regular meals, their suitable clothing, their hours of play and amusement, and their singing class. They are treated as scholars ; every morning is devoted to school work—reading, and writing. and elpherinz and Scriptural instruction, with occasional lessons in objects and other subjects. But they are also trained to work. As they must all. and that at a very early period in life, earn their living by the sweat of their brow, they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after noons are occupied with various industrial occupations — making brown paper bags for bankers, and white paper bags being made watering, assi u s for tradesmen , and door mats and servants' kneelers for any who will buy them ; picking the coil for the mats, mending the c othes, assist weeding, di inu master gt,h soe th ,to e srotr if lu a .b r b d i e un n gy , ddiegggrieengs'thpelyanatrienhge,ea nhdionus and sweeping, while the elder ones clean all the boots, knives, dm In this way it is sought to fit them for an active wooing life. _ _ Therg are now 50 little inmates from about four years of age to 10. There is room for nearly 10', and the Committee would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only wait for the necessary subscriptions. The Committee feel constrained to plead for those who cannot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they ask—ls it right to make a widow and her family paupers for life because one of them (the naughty boy of the family) runs wild in the streets and is beyond her control ? Is it kind to tell her, because she has so large a family, that you will not h Ip her to put one of them into a Home. but that the' , must ail go into "the house ?" Is it doing the best we can for the little destitute orphan to send him to the workhouse. Is it doing to others as we would they should do unto us that when these little ones have unnatural parents who turn them into the streets, or force them by ill-treatment to " tun away," none of us shou'd be found to care for them, to speak a kindly word to them, to befriend them, to house and clothe thrm ? Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, passing by on the other side, or else exclaiming "Am I my brother's keeper ?" The mode of admission to the House is twofold, Ist. By election of the subscribers. Boys thus admitted are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till they are 11 years ot age. With the view to secure the election of the most deserving cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers. The voting papers contain a description of each case, as care ful y investigated by the Committee, and with this informa tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to those most eligible/ for free admission. 2d. By payment, of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance. All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any time as soon as approved by the Committee, Elections of children to be admitted free will take place as frequently as the increase in the annual subscriptions will admit, till the Home is full; they will then be held periodi cally Forms of application for the admission of chlidrell may be had at the Home, and of the Honorary Secretary, BED-ROOM CANDLES.

The CHAIRMAN was received with loud cheers. He said he had cheerfully responded to the invitation to preside on the present occasion, sympathising, as he did, with the cause of Polish independence. This meeting had been convened by a body of Polish gentlemen to commemorate the late glorious struggle in Poland, none the less glorious because it was un successful. (Hear.) He had often publicly stated his appreciation of the noble heroism which had characterised the people of Poland during the late struggle, and he regretted that the people of Eng land had not come forward some' time back in a more determined manner in behalf - ef that unhappy and long-suffering people. (Hear.) The people of England had missed that, as they had done on other occasions, the opportunity of rendering mate rial assistance to weak and oppressed nationalities. (Hear.) It was all very well for some people to tell the Poles to bear their sufferings with patience, but patience under some circumstances was a crime. (Hear.) If Englishmen had remained patient under the oppressions from which they once suffered, and not risen repeatedly in insurrection, where would have been the liberties of England? (Cheers.) The Poles were in a worse condition than the people of any other country on the Continent. The whole rights of men and freemen who denied to them, and it was too much to expect them to re main patient under this oppression. (Hear.) He, at least, was not one of those who would advise them. (Hear.) Another object of the meeting was to render sympathy and support to the Poles, who were suffering for the part they had taken in the struggle for the independence of their country. He thought on that point at least there would be no difference of opinion. (Hear.) The meeting would be addressed by several gentlemen well acquainted with the present condition of Poland, who would lay before them a very different picture from the state of that country presented by the parasites of Russia, Prussia, and Austria, in a considerable por tion of the press in this and other countries. (Hear.) In conclusion, he desired publicly to ex press his hearty and cordial sympathy with the cause of Polish nationality. (Loud cheers.) M. A. ZABICKI, secretary of the Polish National Committee, then read a long and eloquent address from the committee to the people of Great• Britain and Ireland, which was received with much sym pathy and applause. The CHAIRMAN announced that a deputation from Poland were present, who had brought with them an address to the people of England, which Mr. Beales would read to the meeting. Mr. BEALES then read the address, which was signed Louis Krolikowski, president, and Count de Smaglowski, secretary. Mr. EDMOND BEALES then rose to move the first resolution as follows :—" That the deliberate de struction of the independence and nationality of Poland, now being carried into effect by Russia, in defiance of the rights of nations, the faith of trea ties, and the repeated official assurances given to the Western Powers, is a danger and insult to Europe, and abhorrent to all the principles of freedom, humanity, and civilisation." It was in the hour of adversity that they could best show their devotion to the cause they all loved. After the addresses they had heard from the Poles themselves, he thought this meeting would heartily unite in pro testing against the present policy towards Poland. (Hear.) Lord Lyndhurst, eight years ago, had denounced in the House of Lords the conduct of Russia and Eufope generally towards Poland. If this conduct deserved reprobation eight years since, how much more does it deserve condem nation at the present time, when our Government, and the other Governments of Europe, had deserted in the most shameful manner the cause of Polish na tionalty, and looked on coldly while the people of Poland were being murdered and her liberty des troyed by Russia. The conduct of Russia towards Poland had been one continuous course of violation of truth, justice, and the most solemn treaties. (Hear.) He then proceeded to recapitulate, at great length, the conduct of Russia to Poland for a long series of years past ; every treaty and promise had been shamefully violated, and spoliation and con fiscation had been, and still was, the order of the Not only was international law and treaties day. - but t...+.tempts were now being made to de violated,stroy the very existenae of Poland ; and yet o ur to these violated Government, who had been a ;. arty • treaties, were willing to remain on tZms of friend ship with that brutal Power who was thus outrag ing every principle of Christianity and humanit.Y. (Cheers.) Poland, in her late struggle, was aban doned by this country, and what were the first fruits of this policy—the attack of Prussia and Aus tria on Denmark; on pretence of securing the liberty of Schleswig-Holstein, but which' appeared to be as far off as ever. So that the two Powers who had assisted Russia in violating her treaties on behalf of Poland, actually attacked Denmark on the pretence that she had violated the treaty of London. Such consummate hypocrisy was one fruit of the wretched policy of the English Government towards - Poland. (Hear.) He concluded a long and eloquent speech with a tribute to the noble chairman for occupying his present position, and calling on the meeting to support the Polish National Committee in their laudable and patriotic efforts on behalf of their be trayed, unhappy, and heroic countrymen. Mr. WIEASS seconded the resolution. As a work ing man he begged leave, on behalf of that class, to disclaim any participation in the heartless conduct of the English Government towards Poland. He had a firm faith in the future of that country. (Hear.) The resolution was then put to the meeting, and was carried unanimously with loud cheers. Mr. BEALES then read an address of the founder of an institute established at Paris for the mental cultivation of young Polish refugees, signed " Alex ander Zabulike." Mr. MoNTAGU LEVERSON moved the second reso lution as follows :—" That the sufferings of the patriots of Poland, victims of an insurrection -into which they were purposely forced by a long series of the most intolerable tyranny and oppression, and in which, as usual, their undaunted valour and devoted heroism succumbed only to enormously superior force, entitle them to our warmest and deepest sym pathies, and that a fund be raised and subscriptions invited for their relief." He contended at some length for the natural capacity of the Poles for self government, a more striking instance of which could not be given than the manner in which the orders of the late National Government were obeyed by the whole Polish people, although they had only moral power to induce obedience. He believed there was an indomitable determination on the part of the people of Poland to obtain, at all risks and all hazards, their independence of the brutal Muscovite. He was ashamed to say that England, who had ex pended her blood and treasure in behalf of legiti macy and tyranny, had stood aloof from one of the most glorious struggles that had taken place in • modern times. (Cheers.) 1 ' • NICHOLAY seconded the resolution. Poland Ntr. _ , b„„A down by brute force, but the was at present, -_ -1-. A w in agaiii apand'ars a na time must come when sw, ..._ The.

The Conde de Torres Novas, a Lieut.-General in the service of the King of Portugal, and late Gover nor of the Portuguese Indian settlement of Goa, had been staying in Gibraltar for ten days while on I:js way from Alexandria to Lisbon. The Condo de Tor; ea Novas has held the government of Goa for the last nine years, and during the Indian mutiny, when it was of great consequence that a British column should arrive with the utmost despatch at one of the points where the Sepoys were in revolt, he earned the warmest thanks of the British Govern ment.h by permitting, in the emergency, thf?

It appeared that the proceedings were taken under a statute passed in the reign of King William IV., c. 86, s. 41, which enacts that every person who shall wilfully make, or cause to be made, for the purpose of being inserted in any registry of marriage, any false statement touching any of the parti culars required for such registry, shall be subject to the same pains and penalties as if they were guilty of the crime of perjury. The prisoner was a butcher, in a large way of business at Stourbridge, in the county of Worces ter, and in November, 1862, he contracted marriage with Phoebe Frances Priest, the daughter of a re tired South American planter. The ceremony was performed at Aston, and it was intended to obtain a licence, which the bridegroom had not the money to procure ; his I intended wife advanced the money, and he then conceived the idea of procuring a publication of the banns—a much cheaper process—and pocketing the difference. The banns were duly published, and it b eca me necessary tohfatßir should state that he belonged to the same parish lie mingham in which the marriage had taken plaheeen the accordingly stated that he belonged to it, the N r v e sidence entereehdamt let of parties proceeded proceeded to the vestry he both of himself and wife as being in Aston,th B. ingham, tend, which was part of the parish with it.

It would require double the tun• '1* ;411-1 1 1:7- 4 . already lasted, and double the measure' of calainities it has already entailed, to reduce the Confederacy to such a condition that it must take counsel of despair. If the whole seaboard were abandoned, including Richmond, and the war transferred into the interior of its immense territory, the situation would still be no worse than what some of the wisest men of the South, not only fearlessly but hopefully, contemplated as the probable result of the first six months of hostilities. The cities of the coast are useless except for foreign commerce, and four years of un remitting industry have enabled the South to develop a sell-supplying power which renders it practically independent of foreign commerce. Hitherto the war has been fought on the frontiers, simultaneously at several points of a circumference of many thousand miles, and therefore from a strategical point of view under serious disadvan tages. But no Confederate army has yet been destroyed, no decisive defeat sustained in a pitched battle : and with the concentration of all its strength, the Confederacy enters upon a new phase of the every of evil portents to the presumptuous invader. Congress was a townn m l e n nn t rpo hefirst t Ai had war of indepen dence iiBTadatobe:yn body, lost, before dthe colonial the tide commenced to turn steadily in favour of the colonists, and revolutionary France began her career of military triumphs when all her ports were blockaded, a the hands of the grit portion ora o p f h rey er terr tooiv it il ory in war, nearlylatb the all mec Europearmed litigationinof coalitio n nations, strategy agaiat n her. and and the fortune of war may decide the point o f pride , r lwes which is at issue ; but a whole people in arms tAx ca—„l.l its all has its destinies, God willing, in its own hands, and the Confederate people show no signs of faltering or of hesitation. Neither do we yet despair, without, however, wishing to encourage premature hopes, of the jus tice, or rather the statesmanship of Europe. w e have reason to believe that deliberations are now taking place in the Cabinets of Europe, which, whatever delays may still be incurred or obstacles interpose, have a far more practical bearing upon. American events than the so-called peace conference at Hampton Roads. And we may add, that if, what we have always doubted, the hateful name of the relations between the two races inha biting the southern country is the sole serious stum bling-block in the path of a just and wise European policy, it has a fair prospect of being definitely re moved. The arming of the negroes is the shortest, as it is during war the only practicable step towards emancipation. The doubts and scruples and hesitation which have hitherto withdrawn from the recruiting ground of the Confederacy more than 600,000 able bodied men because of their civil status are rapidly disappearing. Congress, it is true, has not yet suc ceeded in devising the form to be given to this momentous measure ; but Congress has only a limited and strictly supplementary jurisdiction over it, the initiative belonging to the separate States. It is to the States, therefore, that the Confederate Go vernment appeals, and the very latest New York papers contains the report of a speech by Mr. Ben jamin, the chief of President Davis's Cabinet, to the assembled population of Richmond, urging Virginia to set the example. It is worthy of note that the Confederate Secretary of State does not favour the forcible arming or conscription of slaves, but the permission and facility accorded them of earning freedom by voluntarily taking up arms. This is at the same time inviting the negro to the highest exercise of judgment and will, and ensuring the be stowal of freedom first upon the most deserving, and, therefore, the best able to use it.—The Index. The Passage of the Andes. A letter from Buenos Ayres addressed to the 11finiteur gives the following interesting details re specting a proposal to shorten the time occupied in the passage of the Andes : " A Frenchman, M. Adolphe Carpentier, residing at Chili, has submitted to the Argentine Govern ment n project for the purpose of opening a .prac ticable route for carriages across the Corderillas of the Andes by the passage of the Teno. This gentle man will, at his own cost, and within three years, complete the new road, the cost of which he esti mates at 200,000 piastres, and in return for this outlay he seeks a concession for 20 years of the right of levying toll on the carriages and animals which may pass along the route. " The Argentine Government has issued a decree accepting this proposition in general terms, but re serving to itself the determination of the duration and amount of the tolls after the delivery of the plans and estimates. There would appear to be no probability of encountering serious engineering dif ficulties on the route, as the only ascent to be sur mounted is scarcely comparable to many of those which are surmounted by carriages in Chilian terri tory. At present the passage of the Teno is only practicable on foot in winter, and on horse or mule back in summer. The new route, on the contrary, will be practicable for carriages at nearly all seasons, and the parts which are covered with snow in win ter can always be crossed by horses or mules. After the completion of the road a traveller leaving for Valparaiso, after proceeding to Santiago by the rail way in five hours, can again start by rail next morn ing, and, on reaching San Fernando, can avail him self of the diligence, which in one day will convey him to the foot of the Cordilleras. On the follow ing day he can cross these mountains, and in 62 hours he will be enabled to reach Mendoza, where there is a weekly service of diligences, which make Th the e jo d urn ura e t y io f n ro o m f M this end pa oza rt t 0 0 0f R th o e sari jo o urn m. eyl2cadnaybser ,rdand ova, lt n w o li w l b b e e in st g li ca le : s - The trip from when stru easily et e d the s u e opened railwaye d t o nt r d days, s Ro sario to Buenos Ayres is made by steamers in a month.

STATE OF TRADE. CARDIFF, Feb. 28.—The iron trade is in a moderately satisfactory state, and the works are in pretty regular em ploy. A larger quantity of pig and puddled iron is being sent to Staffordshire, consequent upon the turn-out in the north ern part of that county. Several important contracts for railway iron are about to be given out, and there is no doubt entertained that South Wales will receive a full share of the same.
