BAZLEY, in commenting on this topic, observed that during the last five years, India has received from this country £100,000,000, and he com plained thaNso large a sum 'of money had in reality been turned to very little ac count. Lavished in speculation or em ployed in costly structures, the soil and the trade of the country were little the better for an amount of money which should surely have left some durable traces. Mr. BAZLEY further expressed some uneasiness as to the effect likely to be pro duced in India when the demand for cotton fell off, as it inevitably would on the full renewal of the American supply. In 1860 the consumption of Indian cotton was a little over 3,000 bags per week, whereas last year it averaged 20,000, so that we can readily perceive the loss and disappointment which the sudden collapse of such a demand would produce in India. It might be naturally supposed that Indian cottoii would prove a formidable rival to American cotton, but, thanks to mismanagement and want of enterprise, the Indian material is so inferior that it will have no chance of holding its ground when once America rejoins its former posi tion. The general feeling in the Manchester Chamber was strongly against the Indian Govern ment, more especially against the Legislative Council. One gentleman declared that the East Indian Company had only changed its name ; another, that to find a parallel for these irresponsible couuciliors we must go back to the Republic of Venice. Mr. CASSELS very sensibly urged that the best thing to be done was to make roads and canals for India, and leave her to take care of herself ; and, indeed, the prevail ing impression evidently was that meddlesome and obstructive legislation fettered the enterprise and industry, of the country. The system on which India is governed is altogether opposed to the free trade and enlightened policy of the present day. Manchester has good right to complain, not only on account of the mismanagement of the cotton supply, but of the hindrance to free commercial enterprise, in which complaint all our manufactur ing and exporting cities may well join. The im mense extent of our Indian possessions, the natural capacities of the soil, and the wealth of some portions of the people, all point to India as a source of national wealth, as well as a heavy national responsibility, and open a profitable market for the consumption of our manufactured goods, as well as for a prolific source of supply of many valuable raw materials. Instead of such being the case we have within the last ten years heard politicians gravely debating whetherlndia were not a source of loss rather than of profit, and whether the best thing we could do for ourselves would not be to withdraw from it altogether. Even supposing we could so lightly lay down the moral obligations assumed towards that vast people, the folly and shortsightedness of such a course would be so great that it is only wonderful intelligent men should have gravely considered it. What a field for our superfluous energies ; what a profitable and rational investment for our enormous wealth there is in : s our East3rn Empire; and, as if to show our negligence and indifference, the more the returns, which a little exertion and enter prise produce, are surprisingly rapid and encourag ing. The success of the tea plantations on the slopes of the hills has surprised and delighted the experimenters, while the same story is repeated in other parts with other products. With great rivers flowing through the country, and with engineering skill and science at our command, certainly second to that of no othev. country, we listen quietly to tales of drought and famine, although repeated experience shows that the appli cation of water to the soil increases its production fourfold. The means of communication through out that country arc as defective as if our own island were not intersected by railways and canals, and as if the shriek of the engine was not sounding all over our metropolis. India, as Mr. BAZLEY ob served, has 3,000 miles of railway to show against America's 30,000, and he might have added that the greater part of which she has is of comparatively recent construction. Surely it is high time that these matters should be taken up in a more liberal and comprehensive and enlightened spirit, that Indian public works should be carried on and Indian policy remodelled, not in accordance with the prejudices of an antiquated school and the obstinacy of ob structive red-tarists, but in harmony with the re quirements of a population which is reckoned by tens of millions, and an empire which any of the conquerors of old might have coveted. If the Man chester Chamber of Commerce can succeed in in fusing a new spirit into the whole system of our Indian administration they will do good service, and effect a much-needed reform. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JA v. 31, 1866. - The annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held at Manchester on Monday last, and, as is usually the case, some very important and interest ing topics were discussed. The past year has been so busy in removing men Of eminence and public utility from our midst that the first assembling of the gentlemen who attended the Chamber was marked by some saddening recollections, and the first words of the President referred to the loss which Manchester had sustained in common with the rest of the country by the death of Mr. COBDEN, whose name and policy have so long been closely associated with the city. The deaths of Lord PAL MERSTON and of President LINCOLN have also marked the year and affected the policy of two great nations ; but happily the President of the Manchester Chamber was able to congratulate his hearers on the position of American affairs. The resuscitation of the cotton trade can hardly fail to be a matter of gratification and rejoicing to the members of the Manchester Chamber, and the ces sation of the civil war opens encouraging prospects to the Lancashire manufacturer. The dreary anti cipations which some persons indulged in during the first years of the war, when the cloud hung heavily over Lancashire, have happily proved as unfounded as they were dismal, and the spirit and courage which carried the trade successfully through so severe a struggle have been rewarded by the most encouraging prospects. Of course, there is still much to be done, and to be gained before the height of prosperity reached in 1860 can be once more won for Lanca shire, but the activity of the present, and the signs of the future, give reasonable ground for hoping that even greater plenty and prosperity may be in store. Mr. BAZLEY, m.p., i n remarking upon this topic, said that already something of the old activity had returned to ..the manufacturing districts since the close of the American war. "In 1860 the con sumption of cotton in the United Kingdom amounted to 2,500,000 bags during the year ; at the period of the greatest distress, namely, 1862, the consump tion diminished to 1,000,000 bags; and last year it had gone up to 2 , 000,000 ." Taking into consideration, however, the • nnpor tant additions recently made to the means of con. sumino• cotton by improved machinery, and the in vestment of fresh capital in new works, Mr. BAZLEY was of opinion that When cotton could be had in plenty, not less than 3,000,000 bags ,would be re quired for the trade of the United Kingdom, and that prices would be as low as previous to the con vulsion of 1860. It must be confessed that the French EMPEROR has latterly shown much discretion in dealing with the difficult question of Mexico, and we may now consider that the unfortunate differences that have so long existed are in a great measure done away with, and in a fair way of being altogether termi nated. The communications of M. DROUYN DE Lnuvs, which have just been published, display much moderation, at the same time that they reveal a determination not to become involved in any awkward discussion. Notwithstanding the appa rent respect, and the show of friendliness NI Inch Mr. SEWARD made in his despatches, bad not the French Minister been equal to the occasion, and adroitly evaded this topic, and steered clear of that danger he would have involved himself in a very awkward affair. On the contrary, he dexterously contrived to seize upon those points in which the French and Ameri can authorities are agreed on, at all events upon which they appear to be so, and thus we find the following emphatic declaration, " To sum up, M. le Marquis, the United States recognise the right we had to make war in Mexico ; upon the other hand, like them, we admit the principle of non intervention. This two-fold admission seems to me to offer the elements of an agreement." Fol lowing, as a natural consequence, upon these assertions, the next passage in M. DROUYN DE LUUYS' despatch conveys an intimation which will be welcome alike at Paris and at Washington, and appreciated by all lovers of peace. He states that it is the EMPEROR'S desire he should declare to his Minister in Mexico, that finding their fellow-subjects in the establishment of a regular power, they hope the " legitimate object of their ex pedition will soon be attained, and they are has tening to make arrangements with the Emperor MAXIMILIAN, which, while satisfying their interests and their dignity, allow them to consider the part of their army upon Mexican soil at an end." It is impossible to estimate the importance and significance of this announcement, and it is to be hoped that the frankness of this statement will put a stop to the insinuations of those who always take the worst view of a question, and seek to discover cause of dispute where none exists, and to foment quarrels that rest :onlylupon slight foundations. Another point upon which M. DROUYN DE LHUYS has displayed great tact is in his scrupulous avoid ance of debateable questions. He states in one of these dispatches that when the United States Minister came to acquaint him with the opinions of the Wallington Cabinet, he declined all controversy In reference to the question of the cotton supply, which naturally occupied a very prominent place in the Alanchester discussions, a good deal was Said about the Government of India. A very general, and not altogether unfounded, feeling of dissatisfaction was expressed, and there was evidently a strong conviction that the most had not been made of the opportunity. Mr. i upon the acts of a foreign Power acting with full number of hippodromes was 110, and the receipts independence, and he stated that he could only re - from the races amounted to 1,860,950 f. Gladiatenr ceive any communication as simple information. At realised for his owner 493,500 f. in six prizes, three of which were for victories gained on the English any rate, we may congratulate the French Govern turf. Steeplechases continue to increase. They, meat upon the wise decision it has come to upon in fact (says the club book), aro the only induce this difficult subject and it is a question of general meat to breeders to create the best saddle as well as of particular interest, for it would have horses. The breeding of horses in France been very disastrous if a war had broken out at is no longer a theoretic or administrative this period between France and the United State s, matter; It has increased, and has become an indus and all the nations of Europe would have found trial question. The assistance given to the St a t e in its efforts to develope the qualities of the French themselves in very awkward positions. horse proves that this point is now in France, as it is in England, a popular and national one. The Moniteur of this evening states that the packet-boat Vera Cruz for Martinique has arrived at St. Nizaire, with news from Valparaiso to Dec. 10, Lima, Dec. 21, Panama, Jan. 1, and Montenegro, Jan 10. The Spanish Minister Plenipotentiary at Peru, and the Spanish Consul at Callao, arc among the passengers. The 4i per Cents. fell 50c, to-day. The Credit Mobilier rose 17f. 50c. Prussia seems determined to lose no opportunity of manifesting its utter indifference to the good opinion of the rest of Europe, and its supreme con tempt for all the rights and usages of constitutional Governments. The last news from Berlin is, that the proposal of the State-Procurator to institute proceedings against D eplltieSTWESTENiand FREUGEL, for their speeches in the Diet, whieh was rejected by the Courts of First Instance, upon the ground that "by the Constitution members cannot be called to account for their speeches in the Chamber," has been acceded to by the Supreme Court. That tribunal has decided that such a charge can be en tertained. Can anything be more subversive of popular rights than this, and does not such a deci sion accord with the most extreme principles of absolutism? What will be the use of the Chambers meeting at all, if all that is done and said by inde pendent members must be subjected to the scrutiny of a legal tribunal ? And how can: the people expect that their representatives will speak out if they are to be pounced upon by the emis saries of the law, and called upon to account for their honest expressions of opinion as if they were guilty of crimes, or, at all events, of grave offences, against the peace and welfare of their country ? The fact is, that the time is fast approaching when it will be necessary for the Prussians to de cide if they intend to remain an independent nation, or if they are willing to fall back some generations, and to return to the old days of absolute will and blighted prospects. The consequence of the war with Denmark has been that Herr VoN BISMARCK has proceeded with giant strides in his mis chievous course, and has all but subverted the constitution of the country over which he has ruled with such discredit to himself and such injury to those under him. If some decided stand be not made during this session, the Prussian representatives will find themselves completely stultified, and perhaps by next year the sapient and sinister Director of Public Affairs may discover that it is idle to call the Cham bers together at , all, and that it is an antiquated ceremony which may be very well done away with altogether. The Extradition Treaty between France and Eng] ind. (REUTER'S EXPRESS.) PARIS, January 30. The following is the full text of the despatches exchanged between M. Drouyn de Lhuys and the French Ambassador in London relative to the Extradition Treaty between France and England : " The Minister for Foreign Affairs to Prince de la Tour d'Auvergne. " Paris, Nov. 29, 1865. " Prince,---I had the honour, in February and March last, to address to you various communica tions upon the subject of the repeated want of suc cess experienced by our demands of extradition in Great Britain, and my last despatch of March 11th foreshadowed the probability, and even desired you not to leave the Cabinet of London in ignorance, that if the ameliorate 'w were desirous of intro ducing into the system created by the convention of 1843 were rejected, we should probably find our selves obliged to give notice of the termination of the treaty. " You are aware, Prince, of the difficulties of every kind in face of which our demands for extra dition have constantly failed. I will confine myself to recalling the two principal ones. " In the first place, the British Government refuses to give up to us condemned persons, upon the plea that the convention of 1843 only mentions those who are accused. Without dwelling upon the contradiction, in our eyes, of a system which recognises the legiti macy of extradition with regard to individuals upon whom weighs only a presumption of culpability, and which rejects it as touching those who have legally suffered a judicial sentence, we proposed an addi tional clause to the Treaty of 1843 to include con demned persons, but our offer was declined by the Cabinet of London, which was afraid it could not obtain the acceptance of this clause by Parliament. " In the second place, the extradition convention, as interpreted by the advisers of the Cro ,vn, and consequently by the British Administration, would consist in the obligation of having the case, in some sort, adjudicated in England, as we have once more been able to perceive the refusal recently given to our demand for the extradition of a certain Seissier, one of the pirates of the Fee„kris Arca, who, it was supposed, might land in Calcutta. The Attorney- General of the Indian Government and the Crown lawyers have stated that, to authorise the arrest and return of the fugitive to France, it would have been necessary to append to the warant of arrest copies of the depositions already received in evi dence, and whose authenticity had been attested by the oath of persons by whom they were put in, so that the police magistrate at Calcutta would be able to state whether the fugitive was prima facie guilty of the crime for which his extradition was required. " Such requirements constitute a permanent obstacle to the success of demands for extradition, and differ from the practice pursued by the other Powers of Europe. Extradition is not a measure invented in the special interest of this or that State ; it is the widest application of the principle of penal repression from the point of social order, which unites the great family of civilised nations in one common end of mutual protection and gun- . rantee. Its object is to restore the guilty person to his natural judge, by depriving him of the benefit of the right of asylum as it existed at the time when peoples, placed with regard to one another in a state of hostile isolation, remained indifferent to criminal acts effected outside their territory. If this be so—if extradition, brought back to its true character, is at bottom only a law of in ternational procedure and competence ; if this r in et e u a r su n r in e g , a t fugitive to she Isaid above, his is only a means of natural judge, the contracting States, in such matt ers , s h ou ld no t demand reciprocally other proofs than those in dispensable to verify whether the proceedings aro serious, directed by the competent judge, and oc casioned by common crimes. Every treaty that departs from this rule is devoid of real utility, and does not present that character of reciprocity essential in international relations. Twenty-two years of experience have demonstrated the ineffi cacy of the treaty of Feb. 13, 1843, or rather the anomaly of a situation in which the contract is only executed by one of the parties, and which could not be prolonged without inconvenience to our own dignity. _ _ . Another most shameful act of the Prussian autho rities has been that they have commenced new pro ceedings against Dr. MAY, and although the Lower Court acquitted him on the charge of having pub lished articles against the King of PRUSSIA in the Schleswig-Holstein Gazette of Altona, the Superior Criminal Court, on the appeal of the public prose cutor against this decision, has resolved that " General GABLENZ, Austrian Governor of Hol stein, be requested to order the arrest of Dr. MAY, and have him transported to Berlin." This is a test of the Austrian Government, and it is greatly to be desired that they should stand firm and hold their own against the subtle encroachments and overbearing insolence of the Berlin authorities. If the Emperor of AUSTRIA permit the General to deliver up Dr. MAY to the tender mercies and locus non lucendo justice of Prussian Courts, he will expose himself to the scorn and contempt of all the independent nations of the world, besides doing a great injustice to the indi vidual in question. In every respect the delivering up of Dr. MAY to the Superior Criminal Court of Berlin will be a most suicidal policy, and one uni versally to be deplored. It seems as if Herr VON BISMARCK'S notion now was to vent his rage and disappointment at the failure of his Schleswig llolsteiu plot upon all against whom he can find a pretext for dispute, according to the fashion of the wolf and the lamb in the fable. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) Paris, Tuesday Evening. The Opposition papers in Paris resort to all sorts of deception and misstatement to damage the Ministry if they can. They have for several days past assured their readers that the diplomatic docu ments relative to the Mexican question would not be made public, because the Government are afraid of discussing upon the policy it had adopted respect ing Mexico. Mark how a plain fact can demolish the insinuation. The yellow-book, just presented to the Chamber of Deputies, contains all these docu ments. The objection was, indeed, foolish and puerile, for most of these despatches have been published in the American and English papers. If, upon closer examination, I should find anything new or important, I will translate it for you. Another electoral point of interest was dis cussed yesterday in the Corps Legislatif. The ques tion, divested of extraneous difficulty, was whether a Deputy who bad resigned his functions as a repre sentative of one place, without the acceptance of that resignation by the Chamber, could solicit the suffrages of the electors of another place. The candidate objected to is M. Larrabune. On the 4th of October last the Moniteur published, simul taneously, the convocation of the electors of the first circonscription of the Basses Pyrenees and the 'resignation of M. Larrabune, who had represented that department since 1852. That gentleman im mediately announced himself as the Government candidate and was elected, while proof of the confi dence of the electors in the policy of tile Adminis tration was of course unpalatable to the Opposition. hence a proceeding similar to an election petition in the House of Commons. The result was that the Chamber declared the election perfectly valid. An important improvement is nearly completed between Paris and Passy. The steep ascent called "In this state of things the Emperor's Govern ment has been obliged to occupy itself seriously oit justified us for tia vfedhiicnh with the care of relieving itself from respons ibility, in presence of the facilities offered to malefactors for taking refuge a few hours' dist ance f rom our coasts, and of rt an in impunity point, public opinion i calling it to ac count; so long as the treaty subsist s . s, up to a certain "Consequently, Prince, you Will have the good ness to make known by an official note addressed to her Britannic Majesty's Chief Secretary of State, privil ege cont i nue d i n Art.that availing 4of the ourselves eohvehtion of hotfFeebruary 13, 1843, we have resolved upon giving notice of the termination of the treaty, which will cease to be in force six months after this declaration. " Receive, &c., (Signed) " D.ROUYN DE LIWYS." "The Ambassador of France at London to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. "London, Dec. 6, 1865. " M. le Ministre—lmmediately after having re ceived the despatch your Excellency did me the honour to forward on' i the 29th November, I hastened, agreeably to its instructions, to address to the Queen's Chief Secretary of State.an official Note, bringing to his knowledge that, availing itself of the privilege contained in Art. 4 of the extradition con vention of Feb. 13, 1843, the Emperor's Govern ment had determined to give notice of the termina tion of the treaty, which would in consequence cease to be in force six months after this declara tion. I have the honour to forward a copy of a Note of the 4th December. I should have sent it to your Excellency earlier if I had not hoped to be able to append the acknowledgment of its reception at the Foreign-office. But Earl Clarendon, whom I recently reminded of this matter verbally, and who considers the expiry of the treaty as notified in due form, begged me to await his reply a short time longer, aq he was under the necessity of agreeing upon it with the Home Secretary. " Be good enough to accept, &c., (Signed) " PRINCE DE LA TOUR D'AUVERGNE." the hill of Tro-adero, where at one time it was in tended to build a palace for the King of Rome, son of the first Napoleon, has been levelled to the ground. An esplanade will be constructed, which will not only form an agreeable promenade, but on occasions when there may be an interesting sight in the Champ de Mars it will prove an eligible spot for spectators. It will command an excellent view of the Great Exhibition Palace. _ _ The Constitutionnel, discussing the views disclosed by the official documents published in the yellow book respecting Mexico, says :—" The legitimate object of the expedition will soon be attained. The principle of non-intervention will be for us as with the Cabinet of Washington the basis of our reci procal action ; and after having obtained for French interests the guarantee required by the national honour—for that is what France protects under Napoleon the Third abroad and at home—ourtroops will leave Mexico as will be becoming for a vic torious army which has nobly fulfilled its task." The following details from the blue-book respect ing the breeding of horses in France will no doubt interest your sporting readers. The administration of the Havas (studs) has successively ejected all horses except thorough-bred and half pure blood. In 1865 the number of stallions of pure blood and half pure blood was 783, worth 746,400 f., and the others authorised of the same spec was 99 The breeding and care of horses in France i s becoming much better understood. In 1865 the number of breeding schools was 24, for which a sum of 238,500 f. was devoted, to :be equally shared be tween them ; the sum of 87,500 f. as prizes to breeders for the best cultivation and management of horses. In 1860 there were only 63 hippodromes in France, with an allowed sum of 862,700 f. In 1865 the FENIANISM AMONG THE LIVERPOOL DOCK LA BOURERS.—The dock labourers have been for some time suspected of Fenian proclivities, and as they number some three or four thousand the authorities have been on the alert, no doubt contemplating any confirmation of this suspicion with a little anxiety. We understand that there is not the slightest doubt a great number of the labourers have become tainted with Fonian principles, and that se veral cases aro known in which the Fenian oath has been administered. A Fenian meeting was to have been held in Liverpool at the latter end of last week, but the police were on the qui vine, and the brethren for once acted discreetly, and the gathering did not take place. That the dock labourers should be imbued with Fenian sym •pathies there need be no surprise, and less apprehension of the potency of their eombinatiou.—Liverpool Daily Post..

SlR,—Believing that the subjoined communication from the Foreign-office will be interesting to the friends of humanity and civilisation, I respectfully request that you will, with your usual kindness, give it insertion in your columns. It is evident that the grievances of which the Jews of Persia complained, and which are happily now about to be remedied, were unknown to the Shah. I cannot refrain on this occasion from expressing my gratitude to her Majesty's Government, whose powerful intervention has, under the blessing of the Almighty, been at tended with the happiest results.—l have, &c., MOSES MONTEFIORE. Grosvenor-gate, Park-lane, Jan. 30. "Foreign-office, Jan. 26. " Sir, —I have much pleasure in informing you, by the direction of the Earl of Clarendon, that it appears from a report which has this day been received from her Majesty's Minister in Persia, that in consequence of his representa tions with respect to your petition to the Shah, his Majesty has addressed an autograph letter to *the Sipehsalar, in which he signifies to his Prime Minister that it has come to his knowledge that his subjects suffer from oppression ; and that being contrary to his wishes, the Sipehsalar is strictly enjoined to see that the JeWs are henceforward treated with justice and kindness.—l am, &c., (Signed) " A.

SlR,—While reading, recently, the Journal and Correspondence of the poet Moore, edited by the present Premier, I found some interesting remarks on this subject, which may be mentioned in. connec tion with my letter in The Sun on the 20th inst. In May, 1826, Moore attended at Mr. De Ville's, in the Strand, with some friends, when the examina tions were " very interesting." " A mother came in with her little boy, and De Ville told us he had had, since he began, about seven hundred mothers in the same way, bringing their children for the purpose of ascertaining what course of education their organs were best suited to." That "De Ville's explanations of the principles of the art, and some of the facts he produced, were very striking." Sir Francis Burdett he described as a " lover of justice, and impatient under oppression." D e Ville, not knowing Moore, stated him to be a great lover of facts. Mr. Rogers was amused at this " matter-of-fact " statement, but Moore believed that De Vine was correct in his statement, as his chief work of fiction, " Lana Rookh" was founded on a long and laborious collection of facts. " All the customs, the scenery, every flower from which I have drawn an illustration, were inquired into by me, with the utmost accuracy," he stated. In the month of August, 1835, Dr. Andrew Combe lectured at the Royal Irish Academy upon Dean Swift's skull, remarking upon his large animal propensities and the depresEion of the frontal portion, which he attri buted to insanity. Moore was present at this lec ture, and he seems to have believed generally, upon this occasion, and at other times, that the system of phrenology was based upon truth, and consequently that it deserves attention and respect.--Yours, obediently, l CHR. COOK. Jan. 30, 1866. A NEW BARONET.—It is reported in South Wales that Mr. Henry Hussey Vivian, one of the members for Glamorganshire, is about to be made a baronet. Mr. Vivian is the head of the wealthy copper smelting firm of Vivian and Sons, and he has represented Glamorganshire in Parliament for the last nine years, having previously sat for Truro. LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN LONDON.—The vestry of St. James's held a meeting yesterday in the Vestry Hall, Piccadilly, to receive delegates from other vestries and dis trict boards for the purpose of discussing several important questions. Mr. Bean was called to the chair. The first re solution was moved by Mr. Lawford, churchwarden of St. Pancras, to the effect " That bile members of the several vestries of London now present do form a committee, with power to add to their number, to consider a proposed ap plication to Parliament for the purpose of founding muni cipalities in the several boroughs of the metropolis, and that this committee report to their several vestries." The re solution was seconded by the Hon. F. Byng, and car ried. The second resolution, proposed by Mr. D. Rogers, was as follows :—" That it is desirable the vestries should by joint committee consider the provisions of the Metro polis Gas Act Amendment Bill, or any other gas mea sure before Parliament, with a view to securing the right for vestries, jointly or otherwise, to purchase existing gas works, or establishing other works for supplying gas to the consumers in the metropolis, and thus secure the same powers sought to bo obtained by the City of London, and, with that view, that subscriptions be invited from each vestry to secure support by counsel, and to defray the requisite legal and other assistance. That the delegates be invited to secure a continuance of their appointment, and the assent of their several vestries to the above resolution. That Mr. Rogers, Mr. Eldridge, and Mr. Fowler, of the delegates present, be a sub-committee to prepare a report to be sent to each vestry, and that the St. James's vestry be requested to remit the same." The resolution was seconded by Mr. Box, and carried. There was a very full attendance of delegates. A vote of thinks was passed to the chair man at tho conclusion of the proceedings. , - _.,-- Naval and Military Intelligence. ~~- The Pallas, 6, ironcased screw corvette, 2,372 tons, 600-horse power, Captain Matthew Connolly, is being pushed forward for her completion with the utmost despatch. Her Mangin screw has been un shipped, and a two-bladed Griffiths' propeller is making to be fixed in its place. The ship is now lying in the large basin in Sheerness dockyard, where a large number of workmen are engaged in painting her and completing the sea fittings con nected with her rigging, stores, and armament, which were unfinished when she left Woolwich for her steam trials, and which it was considered more convenient to complete at Sheerness than at Wool wich. The Endymion, 22, screw frigate, 2,486 tons, 500-horse power, which is completing her fitments in Sheerness dockyard, has beeh placed under the steam-masting sheers, where the shipment of her masts has been nearly complete. When this is done the vessel will be placed in dry dock for the pur pose of having her bottom coated with copper. The engines, manufactured by Messrs. Napier and Co., of Glasgow, have been taken on board. It is pro bable some months will elapse before the vessel is completed, as she was not much more than a mere hull when brought from Woolwich, and the chief part of the dockyard staff are at present engaged on the Pallas and other vessels which will be required before the Endymion. The Favourite, 10, screw ironcased corvette, 2,094 tons, 400-horse power, Capt. F, H. Short, at present lying in Sheerness harbour, will on Thurs day be placed in dry dock to have her bottom scraped, preparatory to her being placed in com mission. Capt. W. H. Stewart, the Superintendent of Chatham dockyard, has granted what is justly looked upon as a great boon to the workmen em ployed on the establishment—the privilege of smok ing in the dockyard during the dinner-hour, the practice of smoking in her Majesty's dockyards being, until recently, strictly prohibited. The places set apart in which the mechanics will be allowed to smoke are under the first and second class sheds, the smitheries, metal and lead mills, boilermaker's shop, and engine -houses. Smoking is not allowed at any other time than the dinner hour, except on extraordinary occasions. The date for the departure of the ironclad frigate Bellerophon, 14, 4,270 tons, 1,000-horse power, Capt. E. Tatham, which was to be undocked at Chatham to-morrow, has been altered, subsequent orders from the Admiralty directing that she be de tained in dock until the next springs, to admit of a large amount of work remaining to be finished on board being completed. She will accordingly re main in dock until the 16th, or probably the 17th proximo, when she will at once proceed to Ports mouth, where she will make her speed trials with an ordinary two-bladed Griffith's screw, which has been substituted for the four-bladed propeller she prevously had. Her decks are now crowded with mechanics and labourers, and the utmost exertions are being used by all on board to have her as far ad vanced as possible before undocking. Her upper steel masts and steel yards are fixed, and her stand ing rigging, as well as,' most of her running gear, has been set up. She bent courses yesterday. On her main deck, forward and aft, the fitting for the officers and crew are getting well forward, the mid ship battery, in which the nominal 300-pounder guns will be placed, being kept entirely free. The addition recently made to her bow gives her lines in that direction a much finer appearance, while the additional stem will have the further advantage of lessening the resistance of the water against her former receding stem, when the frigate was being driven at full speed. A fine bronzed Grecian shield surmounts the bow, and adds considerably to her formidable appearance forward. The slight defect mentioned some time since as being found to exist in some portion of her machinery has been made good, and she will leave Chatham dockyard in all respects as perfect an ironclad as it is possible to produce. The contemplated contractor's trial of the ma chinery of the ironcased frigate Royal Alfred yes terday at Portsmouth was deferred. Her Majesty's iron steam storeship Megora, 1,395 tons, and 350-horse power, Captain Montagu B. Dunn, having 'shipped a cargo of victualling stores at Deptford for the coast of Africa, is ordered to call at Woolwich, and embark a detachment of non commissioned officers and privates of the Royal Marine Light Infantry, for the Island of Ascen sion. The mes have been specially selected from their knowledge of various trades, in which their time will be principally occupied during their term of service—namely, three years. One colour-sergeant and 19 privates Royal Ma rines were paraded and ordered to be medically at tested yesterday at Woolwich, under orders to proceed to Portsmouth for passage in Her Majesty's 39 screw-frigate Liverpool, to join the Hibernia, flagship of the Admiral-Superintendeitt of the Dockyard at Malta. Lieut. Morris and two ser geant-instructors of musketry were also ordered to accompany the detachment for service at Malta. The hired sailing transport Talbot, Captain James, belonging to Messrs. Temperly, Carter, and Darke, of London, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from Bombay, with troops on board, un der contract with the Hon. Council for India. The troops were as follows : - -Brevet-Major Hastings and Mrs. Hastings, Lieut. St. John T. Frome, En sign M. H. Ede Cetto, T. Winslow, T. S. Gildea, T. H. H. Barstow ; Assist.-Surg. E. Footner ; two companies ; 85 non-commissioned officers and men ; 110 time-expired and discharged soldiers from various regiments, 3 pensioners, 17 convicts, 9 women, and 26 children. Two births occurred during the voyage and one death only, the troops having enjoyed excellent health since leaving India. The Talbot sailed from Bombay on the 16th of October, and from the Cape on the 9th of December. On entering Simon's Bay the Talbot met tler Ma- jesty's ship Conqueror coming out under steam for England, and she has thus beat the line-of-battle ship upwards of 3 days in making the voyage between the Cape and Spithead. Fine weather was experienced by the Talbot throughout the passage from the Cape to Spithead. In Simon's Bay she left anchored the .Grecian, sailing transport, from Hongkong, bound to Spithead with troops and invalids. During the passage homeward, since leaving Simon's Bay, the Talbot spoke,--on the 18th of December, in lat. 18.30 S., long. 2.30 W., the bark Precursor, from Algoa Bay for London, 16 days out ; on the 3d of January, in lat. 3.20 N., long. 28.11 W., the bark Catherine Morrison, from Monte Video for Cardiff, 40 days out. The troops will be disembarked from the Talbot at Spithead this morning, by the aid of Government steamers, and the ship will immediately afterwards sail for London to deliver her cargo. The Royal Marine Light Infantry battalion, with the naval and marine supernumeraries brought to England from China and Japan in her Majesty's ship Conqueror, Capt. Luard, whose arrival at Spithead was announced in The Sun of yesterday, were disembarked from that ship soon after 7 a.m. yesterday. The ROyal Marine battalion were offi cially inspected on landing at the Royal Clarence Victualling-yard, Gosport, by 11lajor-Gen. A. B. Stransham, Inspector-Gen. of her Majesty's Marine Forces, when the appearance and :general bearing of officers and men were highly commended. On the dismissal of the parade the battalion was broken up, and each part sent on to the headquarters of its respective division, the Woolwich, Chatham, and Devonport portions by railway from the Gosport 'terminus of the London and South-Western Rail way Company, and those belonging to the Ports mouth division marching into the divisional head quarters at Forton, near Gosport. The detachments of the 2d Battalion 4th King's Own Regiment, 2d Battalion 15th Regiment, 2d Battalion 20th Regiment, and the 29th Regiment, under orders to leave Chatham for embarkation for the Mediterranean and China, will not leave the garrison for some weeks, the date of their intended embarkation having been altered. An officer, recently returned from Andersonville, Georgia, states thero is but a small garrison of about twenty mon stationed there, who are guarding the old stockade and cemetery, which are still undisturbed, although numerous threats to burn the stockade have been made by the chivalry of the surrounding country.
