The following memorandum with respect to the Caudian question has recently been addressed by the Greek Government to the Protecting Powerd: "During the last four months the island of Candia has been passing through a crisis, the prolongation of which testifies to the gravity of the causes by which it has been occasioned, and the inefficaciousness of the means employed to appease it. "As a not impassive, but reserved- and silent, spectator of this crisis, the Government of his Majesty the King of the Hellenes cannot be blind to the perils of a situation threatening to aggravate the sufferings of a Christian po pulation of upwards Of 200,000 souls. "By hergeographical position, her community of.religion and race, by identity of language and common traditions, Greece is the first to feel every uneasiness of the Greek po pulations in the Ottoman empire; she is also the first to suffer thereby in her more legitimate affections. She would therefore betray the duties such ties imppse, she would fail in her mission as the first Christian Power in the East, if she did not uplift her voice in favour of her Candian breth ren, overwhelmed by the evils of bad administration, en vironed by numbers of troops, having everything to fear from Turkish fanaticism and the measures ordered against them. In times of trial and danger the island of Candia has been one of the foremost maritime bulwarks of Greece, and the plains of Attica have been deluged with Cretan blood. "But, by virtue of a resolution at the London Confer ence, and in spite of the contrary advice of the ambassa _dors of the three great Powers at Constantinople, this island, after having been exposed for nine years to all the calamities of war—from 1821 to 1829—was replaced under Ottoman rule, with the sole exceptions of the fortified towns of Candi% Canes, and Rethino. The Cretans in arms had even taken from the Turks in 1824, under the orders o Kalergis, the fortresses of Graboussa and Kissamos, and held them in their possession when they wore condemned to re-enter under foreign domination. " A prince destined at that time to direct the destinies of Greece, and whose great talents and high sagacity subse quently founded the happiness of another State, raised his voice in vain against a decision that equally infringed jus tice and humanity, and which was to be a source of con stantly fresh complications. " But if the protocol of Feb. 3, 1830, was not modified it was, through the remonstrances of King Leopold, sub jected in application, by the protocol of Feb. 20, to certain restrictions for the benefit of the Christian populations of Candia and Samos. " It is only necessaryto turn to the notification addressed on the Bth April, 1835, by the representatives of the three Courts of France, England, and Russia to the Sublime Porte, to see upon what conditions the above-mentioned islands were obliged to renounce their national existence at a period when that prospect of progress and prosperityhad not yet been opened to all the Christian populations of the East.

Their contemporary his tory is unfortunately full of excesses of this character. Thus, by combining precedents so little encouraging with this quite recent excitement of fanaticism of which, by a fatal coincidence, the latest letters from Syria teach us to apprehend the sanguinary aberrations, may we not be justi fied in entertaining lively apprehensions of the possibility of seeing scenes revolting to humanity revived in Crete ? And, if this explosion of fanaticism was not to be foreseen as the inevitable consequence of so delicate a situation, what may we not have to fear at the first intelligence of the opposition the execution of the violent measures pre -scribed by the Sublime Porte will probably encounter from the Cretans in the mountains ? The more his Majesty's Government reflects upon the matter, the more strongly it is led to apprehend sanguinary events, from which too great haste cannot be made to preserve the Cretans. "In the view of the imminence of suchgreat dangers his Majesty's Government is moved, It knows but too well that this state of suffering, and the frequent crisis it en genders, can only cease with the causes by which they are produced. But, easy as it has been by recording notorious facts to trace . a faithful pictuilk of this perilous situation, the mere difficult would be OA task of offering an opinion upon the measure which can alone guarantee to the Cretans an existence more conformable to their history and to the requirements of civilisation and justice."

ROUTH, Deputy Commissary-G e neral. aissariat at Aldershot, Sept. 10, 1E66. "It is stated in this notification that the three Govern ments, by virtue of engagements contracted by common agreement, have assured to the inhabitants of Candia and Samos, in addition to security against any reaction what ever on account of the part they have taken in preceding events, precise regulations, which, recalling ancient privi leges and granting those which experience had proved ne cessary to them, would offer to those populations efficacious protection against arbitrary and oppressive acts.' " Let the three Courts judge whether these engagements, conferring upon them the right of surveillance and collec tive intervention, have been fulfilled. Massacres, all the more odious because made upon pretext of securing public order, and which in the Cretan annals of 1833 were called the hangings of Mourines, have given the measure of the feelings of Egyptian authority towards the Christians of Candia. It would exceed the limits of a simple memoran dum to follow the Cretan step for step through 36 years of a life of torture. "ln 1840 war was declared betiVeen the Sultan and his powerful vassal, Mehemet Ali. Tho Ottoman empire was exposed to tlie dangers of civil war. The hopo of deliver ance commenced to smile upon the Cretans, but Europe intervened, and the dangers which threatened Turkey were averted. "In Candia the authorify of the Sultan was substituted for the administration of the Viceroy of Egypt, and in consequence of a new international pact the Cretans found they had changed masters without changing their condition. Arms in hand, they then protested against this manner of disposing of their fate, but they were forerkto yield to the united efforts of force and the moral presefttre of the three great Powers. "The events of 1840 are thus a second moral engagement contracted by the three Courts towards the Candians. The Paris treaty of 1856 contains a third. In presence of Europe assembled in congress, the representative of the Sublime Porte submitted an act, emanating from the sovereign will of the Sultan, regulating the fate of Christians in Turkey, and which was, so to speak, the price of the enormous sacri fices Christendom had suffered in the Crimea for the in tegrity of the Turkish empire. "Although having the appearance of being spontaneous, this act was none the less clothed by Art. 9 of the Treaty of Paris with the sanction of an international arrangement, and has since been considered as the political charter of the Christians in Turkey. "To examine one by one the stipulations of the Hatti cherif of Feb. 3, 1856, and to point out the application made of them would be to enter into details the present crisis in Candia renders superfluous. An island which, by its posi tion in the Mediterranean and the nature of its soil, may lay claim to all the wealth of agriculture and commerce, an intelligent, laborious, and peaceful population capable of making its place in the history of the civilisation of the East, find themselves arrested in all moral and material progress.

ANTONIO BRADY, of Contracts and Public Securities. An administration of justice offering none of the guarantees rendering that institution in Europe the first basis of every social edifice, crushing taxes iniquitously ap portioned, and levied in a manner that makes extortion inevitable, daily abuses of authority, the absence of every means of intellectual culture —such is the gloomy picture of a situation we are unable to perceive with indifference. The manifestations of the Cretans and their incessant struggles are but the two natural consequences of the efforts of a people desirous of breaking the shackles that arrest their march towards Christian civilisation. It had been supposed that those fetters would fall off of themselves before the beneficent action of a species of patient and en lightened diplomatic surveillance, but long and painful experience has already demonstrated its insufficiency. "In 1858 the Cretans endeavoured to obtain new gua rantees of good administration, and to put an end to the establishment of new taxes, but those guarantees wore as illusory as the ilatti-cherif. " Exasperated afresh, at the beginning of April last the Cretans sent their representatives to the environs of Canea, to protest energetically against the evils they endure, and to claim their redress by European intervention. These representatives, coming from all points of the large island, met at Koutzounaria, about one hour's distance from the city, vi here the Governor. General and the foreign consuls reside. Some thousands of unarmed people followed, in order to give the mission the importance it possessed. " The representatives of the towns of Canea and Rethino, the bishops of Sidonia and Kissamas, met the representa tives from the country districts, and after a deliberation, in which the most legitimate impulses of patriotism were sac rificed to prudence, a petition containing the complaints of the Cretan people was signed and addressed to the Sultan. Another address was confidentially transmitted to the Sove reigns of France, Great Britain, and Russia. It expressed more concisely the real desires of the Cretan people, NI ith, however, the precautions such a step rendered necessary. " Prudence, 'perhaps, also enjoined Turkey to employ means equally pacific to appease discontent and distrust of the Cretans. But the Government of the Sultan resorted instead to a measure of irritation and of violence, with the effect of rendering a catastrophe imminent. " The sole reply, indeed, that was then made to the una nimous complaints of a suffering population, and which has not departed beyond the bounds of wisdom and mode ration in displaying its sufferings, was the concentration of considerable Egyptian and Turkish forces (upwards of 22,000 men), which, continually penetrating further into the interior of the island, seemed to intend occupying the strategic points. After this display of force Turkey replied to the numerous complaints contained in the peti tion of the Cretans by refusing to entertain them, and by threats against those who should dare, oven by pacific means, to insist upon the need for amelioration in their fate. You will at the same time declare,' says the Vizie rial letter, dated July 22 last, addressed to the Governor- General of Candia, that if they persist in this criminal conduct they will be dispersed by force, and be subjected, to very severe penalties. If, after this declaration, they still persist, you will cause them to be attacked by your troops, you will have their chiefs arrested and con fined in the fortresses, and you will disperse the rest.' " We shudder in reflecting that the execution of these orders is confided to troops whose fanaticism and ferocity know no bounds. We ask if the great Powers will allow to be done in 1866 what they prevented in 1827 and 1828 by the battle of Navarino and the expedition of Morea ? " The fears inspired by the violence of Turkish fanati cism may be added to the official menaces, supported by the energetic movements of the army, and to the suspicion aroused by the gradual concentration—at times open, at times clandestine—of the Turks in fortified towns. It is thus with profound. regret and painful surprise that his Majesty's Government has recently learnt that a dervich had landed at Canea in the suite of the Turkish troops, and had commenced publicly to advocate the massacre of the Christiana.

Grant is the chief officer of the steam passenger ship Grena dier, which vessel passed the scene of the accident a few minutes previous to the collision. He was going the same way as the Haswell, and passed her on the port bow, and soon afterwards the Bruiser, which was going south. As soon as he had passed the latter vessel she altered her course, running into his wake and across the bows of the Haswell, who upon seeing this ported, and kept her helm aport, the Bruiser keeping her's starboard. The collision imme diately occurred, the Haswell striking the Bruiser, so that the vessels formed the letter T. The Coroner then summed up the evidence to the jury dwelling upon the chief facts they had to hear in mind, and telling them that they must either find a verdict of manslaughter against John Scott, or one of accidental death. The Jury, after being absent an hour and twenty minutes, came into court with the following verdict : —That Ada Bell came to her death by drowning, through a collision between the Haswell and Bruiser, such.collision having taken place through the culpable negligence of John Scott, the :n ate of the Bruiser. The Coroner then committed Scott for trial at the next assizes. Bail accepted. London: F. Pitman, 20, Paternoster-row. THE PRICE OP MEAT.

When the bullock had been thrown down in the manner described, he brought out a long-bladed ivory-handled knife, in size something like that with which ham is cut in grocers' shops. The blade would be about 15 or 16 inches long and from 1i to 2 inches broad, thick on the back, but with an edge sharp as a razor. No Gentile fingers are permitted to pollute by their touch this consecrated weapon, the priest having always to sharpen it himself. This he does in a very dexterous manner, a knowledge of this as well as of butchering forming a necessary part of the priestly education. Having satisfied himself by drawing his thumb two or three times up and•down the edge that the knife is sharp enough, the priest has the head of the beast about to be killed so bent back as to force its throat prominently for ward, when, with one cut, he lays it open from ear to ear. The death struggles of the animal are ago nising to witness. The beast being quite dead, the ordinary butchers proceed to skin it in the usual manner. An incision is made under the breast, into which the priest thrusts his hand to examine the in ternal organs. If the lungs should be in the slightest degree attached to the sides, the beast is condemned, and another must be slaughtered ; as, indeed, there must also be if the first cut in the throat is not suf ficient to cause death. On one occasion, some years ago, as many as 15 excellent animals had to be destroyed before the priest got one to satisfy himself. Meat condemned is desig nated " trifa," and that passing is called " coshar." Only the fore quarters of the animal are eaten by the Jews in Edinburgh, although we believe that in. London the hind-quarters also are used for food. Wherever there is a vein in the flesh it must be care- fully cut, or, as it is technically termed, " purged" out by the priest, in accordance with the injunction in the 17th verse of the 3d chapter of Leviticus— "lt shall be a perpetual statute for your genera tions throughout all your dwellings that ye eat neither fat nor blood;" and in obedience to the 15th verse of the same chapter the Jews refuse to touch the kidneys or the suet upon them—" The two kid neys and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall be taken away." The only fat made use of by the Jews is that known as the skirts, which the uncircumcised dispose of to the tallow-chandler. When the beast has been dressed, and the fore quarters cut off by the twelfth rib, the priest marks the meat with a seal, upon which is engraved certain Hebrew characters, and ho likewise marks it with ink in various places. These are guarantees to the faithful when they go to the butcher that the beef is " coshar." When it reaches the butcher the meat is cut up by him in pieces to suit his Jewish customers, the priest having previously " purged" every vein. The names given to the various pieces of meat by the Jews differ from those commonly in use. Thus, the thick end of the shoulder they designate "bolls," the spare rib they call " prime rib," the coarse end of the roast " chuck," the runner " top rib" and " double top rib," according to the cut. Meat, even when passed by the priest, cannot be coshar," or clean, for more than three days after% beast has been slaughtered ; but it can be made " coshar" again by being immersed in water. Before cooking, the Jews again " coshar" the meat at their own homes by dipping it in a basin of clean water. They then place it upon an ashet turned upside down, and _ . _ sprinkle it with salt, the effect of which treatment is to draw out all the blood, which runs down the sides of the inverted dish. • After being once more steeped in pure water it is ready for the fire.— Scotsman.

STIZ lowing account of an extraordinary su i c id e com mitted ANG a E ySouUnICgIDEE.—T the nglish lie gir T 1 e in n2l) 8 France : f and Madame _, residing in th e R ue du Faubourg St. Honore, engaged as governess f or t wo young daughters; an aa by s orphan girl, Ly B—, a native of Liverpool. She was well acquainted with the French and English languages, drawing, and music, possessing a sweet temper and engag ing manners, she was greatly respected and beloved by M. and Madame When they went to their country seat in the beginning of summer she went with them. There she became quite melancholy, and though every means were employed to divert her, she continued in this state and re fused to give any reason for it. At length she attempted to commit suicide with the fumes of charcoal, but she was dis covered in time to prevent the completion of her design. A physician was called in, who directed that she should be carefully watched. This was done, but one day Lucy B-- suddenly disappeared, and no one was able to tell f herwhere s_ d s i h e had gone. Fift een d a y s p asse d f rom th e p e riod smell was noticed in the house, and it was traced boto a appearance. At the end of that time a disagreeablerowhich was merely used as a lumber room and was full of books was found hero. The chest was opene d, scarcely room over en tared. A large chest resting on a and in it was found which she asked for a the M. oback of it was written the fol . few days before, and on the half-decomposed body of s Lucy. , She held fast in her right hand a photograph lowing words :—`M I ask your pardon for my death. I loved you. Not da rin g to tell y ou, a nd too weak I thought that I must die. I also ask pard on S—, who was so good to me.' The post mortem to leave you, of Madame ©lamination proved that she must have made several at tmpts at suicide, for in her stomach were found pins, nails, and poison." Probably few people in Edinburgh are aware that there is living amongst them a class of persons who will not eat a single morsel of -meat killed by a butcher. They would rather eschew beef altogether than cook any portion of the carcasses which are now so liberally, under the operation of the Cattle Diseases Act, sent into the city from the country. All animal food, of whatever kind, partakenby them, must have had life taken away by the sacrificial knife of their priest alone, and only his warrant is accepted as a guarantee for its soundness. Twice a-week, in the Edinburgh slaughter-houses —on Monday and Wednesday—the Jewish priest kills, as did Aaron of old, the bullocks and sheep which serve for the food for the 18 or 20 Jewish families in Edinburgh over whom he is spiritual ruler. These animals are not slaughtered in the ordinary way— that is, they are not felled by a pole-axe before they are bled. Having been tied up by the neck to a ring in the side of the wall, the four legs of the victim are shackled by the priest. The hind legs are then tied firmly together by a rope, which is long enough to pass from the hind legs round the shackle on the front and back again. The rope is then pulled with strength sufficient to draw the four legs close together, when the animal of course tumbles. The rope round the neck is then removed, the beast lying helplessly bound upon the ground. The priest now commences his slaying operations ; and as he appeared in his character of butcher on Wednesday, he certainly was as unlike the popular ideal of a spiritual adviser as could possibly be imagined. Dressed in what are called his " killing clothes"— a long coat, greasy and as glazed with age and dirt as ever any son of Abraham wore, so tattered and torn that it would have taken as many patches as Joseph's cut had colours to have mended it, and a black skull cap on—the priest entered the booth smoking a cutty pipe. The A'tlantic Cable. Yesterday afternoon Mr. C. E. Rawlins, jun., vice-president, Mr. P. 11. Rathbone, and other members of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, proceeded on board the Great Eastern for the pur pose of resentin g an address to Capt. Anderson, which was adopted at the meeting of the council of the Chamber on the previous day. The address, which is subscribed to the gentlemen who have taken a principal share in the operations for laying the cable of 1866 and the fishing up and completion of the cable of 1865, was as follows : " The President and the Council of the Chamber of Com merce beg to convey to you, on behalf of the entire mercan tile community of Liverpool, their heartfelt congratulations upon the success of the great undertaking in which you have been engaged in uniting England and America by the Atlantic Telegraph Cables. Theydesire to convey their pro found admiration of the nautical skill, scientific ingenuity, and undaunted perseverance, which, in spite of difficulty, discouragement, and failure, have triumphed over every obstacle, and brought to a successful conclusion one of the grandest enterprises of modern times. Liverpool is espe cially concerned in your success. Pre-eminently among the cities of the empire, her wealth and importance are closely connected with the maintenance and expansion of the trade with America. She esteems it therefore a happy circumstance that the community which is the most vitally interested in your labours should be the first to welcome you on your re turn to England, and to express their feelings of admiration, which your services have so richly earned. It is her fervent hope that the increased facilities of intercourse which your exertions have secured may not only multiply the commer cial relations between England and America, and so aug ment the wealth of both, but, by bringing the nations into close contact, and removing the causes of prejudice and mis understanding, may bindthem together by the enduring ties of o i m g n u e t uda on nbehal f respect and of t h r reciprocal roc al Liverpool goodwill. Chamber of Commerce "C. E. RAWLINS, Jun., President. "Liverpool, Sept. 20." The deputation was accompanied by Mr. S. R. Graves, M.P., Mr. Wright, Vice-President of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce, and Mr. Blood, secretary of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce. The party were received on board the big ship by Capt. Anderson, besides whom there were on board Sir Charles Bright, who laid the first Atlantic cable (1858) ; Mr. Edward Bright, secretary of the Mag netic Telegraph Company ; Mr. Henry Clifford, who chiefly invented and had charge of the machinery for submerging the cable of 1866 ; and other gentlemen. The address was presented by Mr. Rawlins, vicoiriezident of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, iii the absence from illness of the Presi- dent, Mr. Meade King. In the course of his address Mr. Rawlins, in the name of the mercantile com munity of Liverpool, invited Capt. Anderson and the principal persons who had been associated with him to a banquet to be given to them in Liverpool, the Ist of October. Captain ANDERSON acknowledged the reception of the address in a few manly words, expressing his regret at the absence of those to whom he said the credit of the great success was more especially due, but who he had no doubt would feel highly gratified by the honour which Liverpool was conferring upon them. He said they should not forget what they owed to a higher Power hi having been favoured with suitable weather, without which success could not have been achieved. As it was, their patience was occasionally greatly tried in raising the old cable ; and all their hopes, as well as nearly all their ropes, were at one time shatte re d . Mr. CLIFFORD having addressed a few words to the company, Sir C. BRIGHT delivered an excellent speech, in which he dwelt in a sanguine strain on the future of submarine telegraph cables. — TThe party returned to the shore about half-pas , 4 o'clock. The Collision off the Suffolk Coast. COMMITTAL OF THE MATE FOR MAN SLAUGHTER. The coroner's inquisition relative to the death of the little girl, Ada Bell, whose body was washed ashore several weeks ago at Sizewell, was resumed on Wednesday morning at the Works Hall, Leiston. The Coroner (B. L. Gross, Esq.) observed to the jury that the inquiry had been adjourned until the termination of the examination by the Board of Trade at the Greenwich Police-court before Mr. Trail and two nautical assessors ; and he (the coroner) further remarked that he thought the jury ought to be made acquainted with the chief sections of the Merchant Shipping Act relating to the management of passen ger ships at sea, quoting from the act of 1862, which laid down rules relating to the conduct of vessels and the manner in which they should approach one an other. If a vessel was riding at anchor, a bright white light should be suspended from the mast at a given distance from the deck, and the light to b e globular. If, however, proceeding on her course, in addition to the white light (which must then be about 40 feet from the deck), two others should be visible —a red (port) and green (starboard). The 13th article plainly set forth that if two ships were approaching one another, meeting end on, so as to involve risk of collision, the helms of both vessels must be put to port, so as to avoid one another. The question was who was in fault? The 28th section of the act stated that in case of any damage to any person or property arising from the non-observance upon ofnce th any e per son or ship, such damage was thrown son in charge of the ship unless any good reason could be shown to the contrary. appeared for the ow ners o f th e Mr. Cooper (Messrs. Cla rkson, Son, and Cooper, solicitor to the Ge nera l St eam I D I a ° s e N t ve r ll s ; c A o i ru r o e n a s r ) c e Navigation Company for the Bruiser ; and Mr. 0. J. Williams, Lloyd's agent to the General Steam Navi gation Company, was also present during the inquiry. The Coroner sat about five hours, during which time he took somewhat voluminous evidence of the captain and some of the crew of the two vessels, hut it was very contradictory. The crew of the Haswell maintained that they " ported" her helm upon seeing the Bruiser approach and did not change. Those of the Bruiser acknowledged they " starboarded" her helm, but in consequence of seeing only a dim light they acted under the impression that she was a vessel riding at anchor, and did not discover their mistake till within a few lengths of her, when it was too late to " port" the helm, so it was put " hard " a-starboard," that it might ease the blow, and allow the vessel to run alongside. They maintained that had the Haswell starboarded the helm no colli sion'would have occurred. But in answer to a ques tion from the coroner, the captain of the Haswell said that by starboardiug the helm he should have been acting in direct opposition to the rules laid down. The inquiry was adjourned till the following day. LEISTON, Thursday. the inquiry was resumed this morning, when the 11E II 0 X F ORD 6, OXFORD-STREET. W.

For this purpose he said to her one day, with that kind of air and manner which either means jest or earnest, as you choose to take it —" If I were to ask you whether you are under matrimonial engagements to any one, what part of your name (No-yes) might I take for an answer ? " The first," said she, in the same tone. "And if I were to ask you if you were in clined to form such an engagement, should a person offer who loved you, and was not indifferent to yourself, what part of your name might ho then take as an answer ?" " The last." "And I toll you that I love you, and ask you to form such an engagement with me, then what part of your name may I take ?" "Oh, then," replied the blushing girl, " take the whole name, as in such case I would cheerfully resign it for yours." It is almost need less to add that they were soon after married.
