LONDON, S.ITU111)1Y, _MARCH The account rendered by the Earl of DERBY to the Upper Iloilo last evening of the manner i n which he and his co-trustees had discharged their trust in reference to the pension of the late King of the BELGIANS could hardly have failed to have gratified their lordships. Clear and lucid as the noble earl's statements proverbially are, his address, so far as the financial part of it was concerned, left nothing to be desired, while the interest attaching to the retrospect of the past naturally Engaged the attention of his hearers. Most of them were old enough to remember the pleasure felt through out the country at the Princess CHARLOTTE'S auspicious marriage, the warm interest taken In the young couple by all classes of the community, and the e"clialitY the loPe4 that were ester 6.....--.. —. tamed that the happiness of her married life nu ght compensate the high-spirited and popular young Princess for the sorrows and mortifications of .her girlhood. They could recall, too, the bright hopes with which that married life commenced, and the i sudden shock of grief and consternation which:. I startled the public mind when " in the dust The fair-haired daughter of the isles was laid." The bride and bridegroom, for whose provision. and comfort this trust was originally made, both sleep soundly now, separated not only by the divisions of land and sea, but by half a century of life, its engagements, its perplexi ties, and its struggles. The chasm is wide and deep between the fair young bride just entering on life full of hope and love, and the venerable old monarch I sinking into the grave full of years and cares, after a long career of wars, of revolutions, of diplomacy, of statesmanship, the mediator between contending Governments, the pacificator of angry States, the embodiment of caution, of prudence, of all the wisdom and moderation associated with age and experience. The statement of Lord DERBY broke down all these barriers, and, to our memories and associations, reunited the long-severed pair in the bright hopes and affections of fifty years ago. The manner in which Lord DERBY and his co trustees have discharged their duties reflects the highest credit upon them, and the mederation of the late King of the BELGIANS does his memory honour. Under the various heads the trustees have received a sum total of a million and a half, of which King LEOPOLD neither directly nor indirectly re ceived a shilling. The trustees have put and kept the estate of Claremont in repair, have paid the wages, taxes, and pensions ; have attended to the various demands and requirements of the estate ; and have finally repaid £1,099,500 to the Treasury, retaining in hand a balance of nearly £5,000. With regard to the establishment itself there can be but one feeling in the country, and that is that the illustrious and venerable lady whose vicissitudes have increased her claim to sympathy, though they could hardly do so to respect, may finish her days in peace and retirement under its sha dow. The hospitality of the Queen of ENG LAND may be gracefully accepted even by an ex-Queen of FRANCE, and the invitation which her MAJESTY so promptly and cordially offered to her venerable friend will be heartily seconded by all who can appreciate the fortitude and resignation with which Queen MARIE-AMELIE has met the sudden overthrow of her own and her children's prospects. There was one point in Lord DERBY'S otherwise gratifying address, which can scarcely fail to occasion pain and surprise to the reader. The Treasury, lavish enough usually in all matters of pensions and allowances, has shown the most extraordinary exactitude and parsimony respecting sundry small annuities paid during many years to various mem bers of the CLAREMONT establishment. The Prin cess CHARLOTTE herself bequeathed some charitable allowances to the amount of £360 annually, and there were other pensioners, mostly in the enjoyment of their incomes for more than 30 years. As the Earl of DERBY observed, those who received the larger amounts may naturally be supposed to have insured against the stoppage of their pensions, but such persons as were in receipt of £3O or £4O per annum could not have done so. It is, therefore, a matter of great regret that these petty pensioners should have been allowed to lose their incomes so suddenly upon the King's death, and that the very reason able request of the trustees to be allowed to pay them such part of their quarter's income as was due from September 29th to October 10th, on which day King LEOPOLD died was refused, on the very insufficient plea that the Act did not provide for fractional payments. But this was surely a case which might have been judged by the spirit rather than the letter of the law ; and we think that all Englishmen will learn with shame and mortifica tion that an old servant of the Princess CHAR LOTTE, has been forced by the sudden stoppage of her income to go into the workhouse ! We cannot but hope that Lord DERBY'S representations of the hardship of such a case will have weight, and that the proverbial delay and evasion of our routine system may be broken through in favour of the old dependents of the heiress-presumptive to the Throne of England. The last intelligence from Jamaica is of great interest and importance, for it brings us many de tails of the proceedings before the Commission, which has prosecuted its labours with vigour, and already got through an immense deal of its work. Mr. EYRE has been examined, but will have to be examined again further on some other points that will arise. The Commission have wisely endea voured to put their inquiry under different heads, so as to form a clear and comprehensive notion of the progress of affairs. Nothing very new has come out yet, hut the GORDON case and the inquiry as to the origin of the outbreak, and also the investigation as to the particu lar nature of the outbreak have yet to be looked into. The work of the Commissioners is very hard, and it is to be feared that it may have injurious effects upon Sir HENRY STORKS, who has, besides his share in the Inquiries before the Court, to transact all the affairs of Government, which task, in such a climate as Jamaica, must be very exhausting. Difficulties have been met with in getting the evidence, but after some exertion it now seems to be getting on in a satisfactory style. The Commissioners have very properly refused to allow Mr. GoRRIE and Mr. PAYNE, who represent Mrs. GORDON and the Jamaica Committee, to cross examine witnesses, deciding that as they represent all parties, it is fit that the examination should be conducted by them alone, and not by those who appear in the interests of parties. Such a resolve is to be highly commended, because in an important affair like this strict impartiality must prevail, and the introduction of particular views and especial prejudices cannot be too strongly condemned. It is very satisfactory to find that general satisfaction prevails as to the course pursued by the Commis sioners, and that all concur in praising their effi ciency and energy. Mr. EYRE'S examination did not last long, al though it had been expected that it would take up some, considerable time. So far as the answers bore upon the case of GORDON, it seems that they are very conclusive. In reply to questions put by Mr. GURNEY, the Governor stated that he believed the connection of GORDON with the leaders of the outbreak to be personal, political, and reli gious, and that political feeling ran high in the district to which he was a member. Mr. EYRE also stated that he believed GoRDoN had led to the i nsurrection by hi s l anguage, and as to his being the instigat or of this particular outbreak, the autho rities were aware that he had circulated seditious placards, which contained attacks by name on some of the very persons who were subsequently murdered. This is in it:elf awry significant fact. Mr. EIRE said, " I have seen the seditious placards in which the attacks were contained, and prior to the cap t are of GORDON. I ascertained that he was the person who circulated the placards. Since then I have also ascertained that it was he who wrote them, the original manuscript from which the placard was printed being found in his own handwriting. xvfvr to the placard headed = The State of the Island." Theplacard in question was then read to the court by Mr. GURNEY. It is a most vehement and violent production, and is as much calculated - to sow the seeds of dissension and strife, and i even to stir up those to whom it is addressed to li acts of open violence as possible. After apostrophis ing the blacks as ",Poor people of St. Anne's, starv- Ting people of St. Anne's, naked people of St. Anne's," the writer goes on to declare that he believes her (Majesty the QUEEN and her Ministers have been .deceived, and then merges again into an excited strain—" People of St. Thomas-in-the-East ! you have been ground down too long already. Inhabi tants of St. Thomas-in-the-East ! you have been afflicted by an enemy of your peace, a Custos, whose views are foreign to yours ! Do your duty on the 29th day of July, 1865. Try to help your selves, and HEAVEN will help you !" Mr. EYRE reminded the Commissioners that at the time when the arrests called in question were made there were no more than 1,000 troops in the colony, and of there half were wanted for the disturbed districts. He therefore considered that he was justified in adopting the most decisive measures for the suppres sion of the outbreak as speedily as possible. Mar tial law was not proclaimed in Kingston, because it produced great evils, and he therefore thought it better to take upon himself the responsibility of acts which, if they had been done under martial law, could not have been called into account.;Mr. EYRE replied, in answer to a question from Mr. GURNEY, that he believed these arrests referred to had quieted apprehensions throughout the island. In the course of the evidence it appeared that some excesses were perpetrated by those in autho rity at Morant Bay, but the exertions of Colonel NELSON subsequently stopped many of them. One of the worst features of the case appears to have been the conduct of Provost-Marshal RAMS AY, but as he has not yet been heard in his own defence, it is not yet proper to come to a conclusive opinion respecting his conduct. The evidence of many parties confirm the notion that the negroes were determined upon prosecuting their infamous work of destruction. Mrs. MAJoR, who resided in the disturbed district, saw the reflection of a fire at Morant Bay. Six negroes were pass ing at the time, and declaring that they would kill WIRE, HARRISON, and many other managers of estates; they were singing a fearful song, the refrain of which was— " Buckra's blood we want, Buckra's blood we'll have ! Buckra's blood we'll have, Till there's no more to be had !" WIRE fell a victim to their ferocity, thinking that he could trust the negroes, and lIARP.isoN barely escaped with his life. These statements show that the rebels meant what they said. So far as we can judge from what has already transpired during the inquiry, no doubt mistakes may have been com mitted by some in the execution of their hazardous task of preserving the peace ; but it certainly ap pears as if the opinion before prevalent in King ston as to the chief authorities, especially the Governor being exculpated, will finally be proved to the correct one. It will be a relief to all parties who take an interest in the affairs of the colony when the decision of the Commissioners has been made public ; but, meanwhile, it is a satisfaction to know that there is every reason to think that the investigations are being conducted in a fair spirit and according to the best judgment. Mr. EYRE has shown every desire to impart the fullest information in his power to the Court, and it must be remembered that the most important part of the inquiry has yet to be made—namely, that which refers to the case of GORDON more especially. The long-expected notice of the coming Reform Bill was on Thursday evening given in the House of Commons by Mr. GLADSTONE. Before the Ides of March have passed, the momentous question which has occupied so much attention, and given rise to such endless discussion during the recess, is to be fully brought under the consideration of Parliament. So far it is satisfactory to find the Ministry abiding by their pledges, and actually introducing the pro.nised measure before Easter. There were, how ever, some points in Mr. GLADSTONE'S notice which were less encouraging. The voluminous sta tistics upon which the bill is founded are now, it seems, undergoing revision, and will pos sibly not be in the hands of members until after the Ministerial statement a somewhat singular arrangement truly. Further, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer showed an unaccountable eagerness to take the opinion of the House as to the merits of the bill on its first reading. Surely Mr. GLADSTONE has been years enough in the House of Commons to know that this is a most unusual proceeding. Indeed, if it were custo mary, it would be only wise to vary the order, since a debate on the first reading before the statistics are even in the members' hands, before they have thought over the measure, have heard the opinions of their constituents, have tested the feeling of the public, must necessarily be very incomplete. We do not wonder that cries of " No, no !" greeted the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he suggested the adoption of such a course. Th,c day has been alto getherleft to the Government to fix—the time is their own. Having waited so long, why not wait two days longer, or at least hurry on the revision of the statistics, so as to enable members to judge for themselves, and to avoid the awkward appearance of smuggling the measure through the house. Par liament and the public are willing to give the Ministers and their bill a fair trial, but the course which they seem inclined to pursue does not inspire confidence or encourage sanguine expectations. LIMITED SERVICE IN THE ARMY.—Returns show ing the manner in which the men who have com pleted the limited service in the army in the years 1860, 1861, 1862, and 1863 have been disposed of ; also of the foreign stations from which the men taking their discharges stating the number from each, and the average cost of the passage. The general total of expired terms of service for the four years is 16,722 ; the number discharged 7,424 ; the number re-engaged 9,295. Of the foreign stations from which soldiers have been sent there wore in 1860-1, from India, cavalry 110, Royal Artillery 40, Foot Guards 810 ; the number from the other foreign stations being comparatively small. MALT AS FOOD FOR STOCK.—Mr. Lawes's report of experiments undertaken by order of the Board of Trade to determine the relative values of unmaltod and malted barley as food for stock has been issued. It narrates the results in great detail, and presents the following con clusions:—`• The general conclusion from the results of the direct experiments with cows, oxen, sheep, and pigs is that a given weight of barley is more productive, both of the milk of cows and of the increase in live-weight of fat tening animals, than the amount of malt and malt-dust that would be produced from it. The results of these new experiments, as here stated, are consistent with those ob tained in an official inquiry conducted, in 1815-6, by Drs. Thomas and Robert Dundas Thomson, with cows and with oxen. They aro consistent with the results of experiments made at Rothamsted, in 1848 and 1849, with sheep; and also with those of others made in 1854 with pigs, in which some were fed on sugar. Wherever weights have been taken as a measure of the effects produced, experience hitherto has failed to show any advantage in malt over the amount of barley from which it would be produced, as a staple food for healthy milking cows or fattening animals ; and, if no advantage, there must, in point of economy, be a loss, on account of the cost of the malting process. Irre spectively of economy, malt is undoubtedly a very good food for stock; and common experience seems to show that a cer tain amount of it is beneficial when given in an admixture, and in change with other food, to young or weakly ani mals, or in ' making up' or finishing' for exhibition or sale; that is, when the object is to produce a particular re sult, irrespective of the economy required in ordinary feeding"' CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Friday Evening. The Moniteur, in its non-official part, says that its private information enables it to contradict the report of the resignation of Earl Russell. The Corps Legislatif yesterday was entirely oc cupied with the affairs of Italy and the Pope. A verbal amendment was proposed to that part of the address which affirmed that the Convention of the 15th of September, faithfully carried into effect, would form a new guarantee of the temporal power of the Pope, the maintenance of which was indis pensable for the exercise of the spiritual power of his Holiness. As I led you to expect, the amend ment upon this subject, as I fully believe will be the case with all the other opposition amendments, • was very feebly supported, and on a scrutiny the numbers in favour of the address were 218— against it, 18 only. Numbers of votes-23G. Absolute majority---119. The chief orators were M. Adolphe Gueroult, editor of the Opinion Nationale, and the eminent lawyer M. Jules Favre. The latter speaker entered into various historical details, and contended that when the French flag should be withdrawn from Italy the temporal power of the Pope would be virtually de stroyed. The effect of the occupation of Rome by French troops was that they were the only protectors of his temporal power. M. Jules Favre cited Fene lon as having been opposed to the exercise of tem poral power by the Pope, and contended that men the most illustrious and the most Catholic were of opinion that the union of the temporal with the spiritual power of the Pope was pernicious to both. M. Granier de Cassagnac, on the part of the com mittee who drew up the Address, disposed of the subtleties of the supporters of the amendment in these forcible terms. He said, "It is incontestable in the interest of Catholicism, the interest of liberty of conscience, and in the interest of civilisation that the government of the Church should be exercised with full and entire liberty. This would not bo the case if the Head of the Church had not the control of the police of his city and the police of his State. It is, therefore, necessary, in order to enable the Pope to preserve the integrity and the efficacity of his power, that the Pope should be free, and that wherever he may be, he should be the head or only one, as he could not be the second anywhere." (Cries of " That is true. That is very right.") The order of the day this afternoon was the discussion of that part of the Address which relates to the affairs of Germany. The members who will support the amendment to be proposed upon this subject are for the most part the same as the select few who advocated the abolition of the temporal power of the Pope. There is a very amusing piece at the Folies Dramatignes, by Messrs. Dunan-Troupeux and Pelissier, " The Five Francs of a Citizen of Paris." This citizen, M. Duhamel, like Johnny Gilpin, is a citzen of " credit and renown," and withal a rich merchant of the Rue de Cliehy. His chief characteristic is his " frugal mind," so that although he came to Paris with only three francs and a half in his pocket, he is now worth millions. He is not ayerse to amusement and en- joyment, but his principle is that it should never cost more than five francs a day. He accepts an invitation to dine with some bachelor friends at a crack restaurant, stipulating of course that the dinner is not to cost more than five francs a head, which is agreed to. After dinner, however, when a little excited with champagne, his good-natured friends introduce him to a beautiful and agreeable actress, who takee him to races, opera, balls, and other agreeable places of public resort, and he is soon unable to resist the payment of her little debts to the tune of a great many thousand francs to sate her from prison. On his return home on one occa sion he finds he has spent 18,000 francs, but in his waistcoat pocket is the five franc piece which he destined for the day's amusement. The too-easy millionaire is played with admirable comic humour, and is responded to by frantic bursts of laughter from beginning to end. At the last sitting of the Academy of Science it was announced that M. Fouche, who was charged by the academy with the mission to repair to the Greek Archipelago to give an account of the vol canic phenomena now presented on the roads of Santorin, has left Paris for that purpose, and that his observations respecting them are expected very shortly. M. Deville, the learned geologist, has received a second communication upon the sub ject from M. de Lenormand respecting the state of the volcanic island between the 3d and 10th of Feb. At that period the new island had increased to the extent of 140 metres long by 65 in width and 45 in height. But, in fact, it is no longer an island, for it has now connected itself with New Cammeni, and forms a promontory. The name of King George's Island has been given to it, but it may Row be termed a continent. In New Cammeni an opening has taken place along the whole surface of the island from west to east. The southern portion is contin ually exposed to shocks of earthquakes, which have made many fissures, but the northern portion remains firm for the present. Ovid wrote instructions respecting the Art of Love. In Paris an instance has just occurred of love-making with an eye to business. A well dressed young fellow went into a silk mercer's in the Rue St. Honore. One of the attendants is a young lady, described as very beautiful and of fascinating manners. The young gentleman affected to have fallen desperately in love with her at first sight, and, to say the whole truth, the lady seemed nothing loath to receive his addresses, and to accept the offer of his hand, and heart, and for tune. Ile d we lt particularly upon the latter in ducement for the bestowal of her hand. In the midst of the young gentleman's declaration of love some one came into the shop, and he asked the young lady to show him some expensive silk cravats that he might have the air of a purchaser, and not of a lover. llc appeared to be as much in love with the cravats as with the lady, but he suddenly made towards the door, taking with him on his way some valuable silk handkerchiefs. The lady was so delighted with the lover, or so astonished at his daring feat, that for the moment she could not call for assistance, and so, for the present at least, the lover is in possession of the handkerchiefs. One of the most popular romance writers for the to publish her memoirs. In the mean ti me o n e of news papers is Madame d'..ksh. The T emps prom i ses to the Paris papers has a quaint description of the lady and her style of living at home. It says that Madame d'Ash has nothing of the blue stocking about her. In 1830 she had a great reputation for beauty, but she herself regrets that she has enjoyed the reputation for so many years. The lady lives at the Batignolles in a small house. There is no resi dence so cheerful and so comfortable. The garden is about as large as a table-cloth; there is a microsco pic greenhouse, an aquarium, birds, a little Havannah dog, about the size of a bale of silk, and in her drawing-room are portraits of Alexander Dumas and Roger de Beauvoir when 20 years old, and her own portrait when 15. Madame d'Ash regrets nothing. When asked by her friends if she is con tented, she says, " I have suffered so much that I am happy at the absence of misfortune." A letter from Lyons states that there was a very heavy storm of thunder and lightning on Wednes day, which did much damage in the town and neighbourhood, and that in the adjoining depart ment :It considerable quantity of snow fell in the evening. There has also been snow at Rouen and llavre. It has snowed slightly in Paris on two nights this week, and this evening there seems a likelihood of more snow. The Paris papers appear to think there is some foundation for the report of a fresh Conference of the great Powers respecting the Danubian Princi palities. The Siecle says that Prussia will take advantage of the complications to promote German interests. One of the ablest defenders of Democracy, M. Gustave Jourdan, the author of several works, has just died after a painful illness. Mgr. de Parisis, Bishop of Arras, was seized on Wednesday morning with an attack of paralysis just as he was getting ready to preside over a discussion meeting. His conclitim createo great Alarm.

SOUTHAMPTON, March 3. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Mongolia, with the heavy portion of the above mails, has arrived here. She brings 66 passengers, precious stones, value 3,000 rupees, jewellery, value $2,400, and 3,750 packages of cargo, of which 1,588 bales are raw silk, value £120,000 sterling. Across the Bay of Biscay she experienced north easterly gales and a heavy sea, and up Channel heavy head seas and easterly gale. Twelve English ships of war were at Malta. GIBRALTAR, Feb. 25. The British ship Ellora, of South Shields, had stranded at Algeciras. The British barque Me dium, from Newcastle, had lost her bulwarks, shifted cargo, &c.

The ironclad frigate Bellerophon, 14, 1,000-horse power, Capt. Tatham, was floated out of No. 3 dock at Chatham yesterday afternoon, and safely moored in the harbour. It was at first feared that the rise of the tide in the harbour would not be suffi cient to enable her to pass over the dock till, but by 1.45 the water in the dock, aided by the north easterly wind, had risen to a few inches less than 25 feet, which gave about 6 inches between the keel and the bottom of the dock, when the order was given to haul her out, and in about half an hour she was lying safely at her moorings abreast the dock yard. With the exception of some minor works which in a vessel of the Bellerophon's class will always be found necessary, even up to the moment of her departure, the frigate is as nearly as possible complete inboard and aloft. After coaling she will leave for Portsmouth. The Simoom screw troopship, Capt. Thomas B. Lethbridge, with the 92d Regiment, Gordon High landers, on board, sailed from Spithead early yester day morning for Kingstown, Ireland. The Tamar screw troopship, Capt. F. H. Stirling, yesterday morning embarked from Portsmouth dockyard the 75th Regiment under the command of Col. Gordon, for transport to Kingstown, Ireland. Immediately on the embarkation being effected the Tamar left Portsmouth harbour for Spithead to ad just her compasses. On leaving the harbour, how ever, she fouled the iron frigate Minotaur, and car ried away her own foreyard by the collision. The accident detained her at Spithead until about 4 p.m. when she sailed, and would call in at Portland roads to embark detachments of the regiment, which have been stationed at Weymouth and Portland.

State of Trade, MANCHESTER, March 2.—ln shipping yarns there has been a very large business doing to-day, at somewhat better prices than were obtained on Tuesday. The amount of business has not only been large, but the demand has comprised orders for nearly all markets. Prices have an upward ten dency at the close of the day. The market for home trade yarns has been firm and steady, with a mode rate amount of business at the full prices of Tuesday. In cloth the market has been firm, with a disposition still to buy, especially in shirtings for pretty early delivery. As, however, manufacturers are but little disposed to take orders, the labour question having now assumed a serious character, some hindrance of business may be ascribed to the uncertainty attend ing the execution of orders. There has been in some cases an attempt to advance prices for goods, but we can hardly report the attempt as successful. 'We close with a restricted business in cloths generally, and with quotations in the same position as on Tues day. The operative weavers of Blackburn and sur rounding districts have now preferred their claim to an advance of wages, in a printed circular addressed to the master manufacturers. They propose an increase above the standard list of 10 per cent. on cloths made from 36's yarns and upwards ; of 15 per cent. on cloth made from 20's to 36's yarns ; and of 20 per cent., on cloths from yarns below 20's. In reply the masters have made an offer of a general advance of 5 per cent. as a compromise, which, however, it is understood, has been declined. "Whether the operatives will proceed to a strike remains to be seen. An able summary of the market during the past month is given in Messrs. Du Fay and Co.'s circu lar of yesterday :—" The trade of this district has remained in nearly the same position as we reported on the Ist ult. The high rate of discount has in fluenced prices very little, and steadiness has re mained the characteristic of business during thepast month, as it was in the preceding one. Stocks have not accumulated. The demand for yarns and goods continues to absorb the present production, which cannot be increased much, as there is a want of workpeople. Several of our wealthy manufacturers complain that they have looms standing owing to a scarcity of weavers. This circumstance must be borne in mind in estimating thepresent consumption ' of cotton, which cannot exceed 40,000 bales weekly, and exporters take 15,000, according to the calcula tions of well-informed people. A branch of business which is active just now is calico printing. Nearly all our large printers have orders on hand, the com pletion of which will take two or three months, and as there are no stocks of suitable goods to be met with in the market, we request our friends to bear this in mind, and transmit orders in good time, to prevent disappointment. The caution which has been dictated by high prices not to keep stocks of any kind has led to a healthy state of things, but which is a hindrance to the execution of many orders which are limited as to time. Over production, under such circumstances, cannot take place, but rather short supplies to foreign markets, in which prices will consequently be more easily kept up, which was often not the case in former years. There are fewer consignments made, because producers can have bona fide orders atremunerativeprices. The greatest increase in cotton goods duriw, the past year and up to the present time has been to the United States of America, being nearly double the quantity ex ported in 1864. India and China have also taken largely in excess over the two preceding years. Our exports to Egypt are also steadily increasing since our imports of cotton from that country have become of importance. As it is well known that stocks in foreign countries are not large, it follows that the exports of cotton fabrics during 1865 were not in excess of actual wants." CARDIFF, Ist.—There has been an average activity in the steam coal trade during the past few days, and the collieries are fairly employed. A large number of vessels have cleared out of the docks, and a good many arrivals have taken place. Business has been favourably affected by the reduction in the rate of discount, and orders have been received both on foreign and home account. In the iron trade there is no material change to note. American orders are coming in slowly. Makers are able to obtain current quotations, and no alteration is ex pected till spring, when an increase of specifications is expected. NOTTINGHAM, 2nd.—We had a moderate attend ance at our Exchange-hall to-day. The demand for lace yarns ruled healthy, and higher prices were asked ; late rates, however, were not generally ex ceeded. The business done in hosiery yarns was fair, and fully late rates were obtained. The de mand for silks was slow, but recent prices were fully made. Brown nets were without any important change. The Guardians of the Strand Union and their Sick Poor. - A number of the sick inmates of the Strand Union Workhouse, after having been robbed of their medical comforts and necessaries for years, are now in grave danger of being killed off for want of com mon nursing and attendance. The ward containing them is filled with acute cases. Consumption in its most aggravated form, disorders which render the sufferers helpless as infants, and completely depen dent upon others for moving out of, or even in bed —the aggravated weakness and debility from which there is no recovery—are all represented iu this room. A fortnight ago on the medical officer of the Strand Union paying his usual morning visit, he was startled by one of the emaciated creatures he had come to see suddenly exclaiming-4, There's land piracy going on here, sir, and I can't stand it any longer." Pressed for an explanation, the speaker charged the pauper wardsman, who had had sole care of the room for years, with habitually de frauding all present of the stimulants ordered by the doctor, and of drinking them himself. Beer, port wine, brandy, and gin, were constantly pre scribed in the hope of temporarily prolonging rapidly waning lives, and the man armed with su preme power over their administration had exercised that power in a fashion worthy of a Cornish wrecker, or of the wretches who haunt a battle-field to mur der its wounded and pilfer its dead. An inquiry was instituted by the workhouse mas ter next day, at which the allegations were proved, and after which the unworthy wardsman was re moved. Then came a difficulty. There was no other pauper inmate sufficiently able-bodied to be entrusted with the care of people so helplessly ill as to require lifting and help. After due consideration it was de termined to apply to the guardians, representing the cruel privations the surviving sick had undergone, the certainty that the number of these had been ter ribly thinned through the untrustworthiness of a pauper servant, the impossibility of finding another inmate physically capable of undertaking the duty, and finally, to ask the board to hire a qualified nurse. This application was peremptorily refused. One of the guardians met the difficulty of finding an able-bodied inmate by iusisting that a poor broken-down potman, who had come into the house that day, because of his being too weak and infirm to earn his livelihood, was exactly suited to discharge the functions of nurse. This ex-potman, who trem bles from sheer debility whenever he is spoken to, and whose whole system is shattered from ill health, was appointed to and now fills the position of re ponsible sick nurse and wardsman to people who, unless assisted, are unable to perform the commonest acts of necessity with decency. The results may be imagined, but not written, and in refusing proper nursing to those intrusted to their tender mercies, the Strand guardians are just as much guilty of cruelty as if they withheld food, or applied the branding iron or the thumb screw. If the ex-potman is drunken as well as physically incompetent, the paupers will die from exhaustion as well as neglect; but if he be the most virtuous and self-denying of his kind, his incapacity renders his presence a tor ture to those he cannot possibly assist. The medical officer of the workhou se i s f u lly cog nisant of the shameful state in which his patients are left, but is powerless with the guardians, and has been compelled to avail himself of the promise of one of the inmates of the ward, in an advanced state of consumption, that, when well enough, he will act as assistant to th e potman-nurse. It is in this way the Strand union saves the sum a qualified attendant would cost it in annual wage ; while its sick poor are made to tend each other, or rather to languish on in hopeless unalleviated misery until mercifully relieved by death,—De i ly Acws. ~, ,n a Trintit - HER MAJESTY. • WINDSOR CASTLE, Friday.

The snow which had ceased falling in Edinburgh on Wednesday afternoon, again came on early Ye s " terday morning, and continued falling for son! time. Although the wind was from the north an d north-east, the snow-storm seemed to be coming from the south, a n d s i nce M on d ay i t ha d prog ressed over Badenoch, Strathspey, and Strathdearn, uP t . ° Inverness. The fall of snow has been very caw derable on the high grounds, drifting in some Parts to several feet, an d necess i tating along the line lie the Highland R a il way t h e use of the snow-P l e ut which, however, h as wor k ed most admirably. •".- fall of snow was sli g ht i n Cl ackmannanshire and all along the east coast in comparison with that exPe rienced farther up the country. All the trains on the Highland Railway were m ore or l ess detaine d by the snow-drifts, although men were engaged in cutting the snow where it was too deep for the eP e ' rations of the plough. I n some o f t h e more exPesed parts of the Highland Railway the drifts reached to a depth of 18 or 20 feet. A correspondent who was travelling north war d s on W e d nes d ay, says that 11, saw a man, with a shovel over his shoulder, lead ill s a horse laden with h ay. U pon i nquiry, he found that the man was convey i ng t h e h ay to hi s farm In order to keep his cattle from starving. Both Ma e and beast had experienced great difficulty in getting along the road, the guide being often compelled to cut a path in the turnpike road for himself and h i. 4 horse.
