IRELAND. 1 7 ) - 7BLIN, Nov- 3.—Term comrneneed yestcrlay, and i Chcancieller and the Lord Chief Justice held their respective reaidences, which were very lv attended by the members of the bar. DUBLIN SPECIAL COMMISSION. ve , la imerues The trial of Mr. Williams, another partner in the se-. ditious Tribune newspaper, was proceeded with yester day. at Green-street. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL briefly stated the case. He said the prisoner was indicted under a statute, which received the Royal Assent on the 22d of April, for compassing t,o deprive and depose the Queen from her style, honour, and royal name of the Imperial Crown of Great F'iritain, and for compassing to levy war against her Majesty ; and with expressing, uttering, and declaring, those his intentions by publishing the articles specified in the indictment in a newspaper called the Irish Tribune, of which he was one of two proprietors. Ho (the Attorney-General) thought that the jury would have no difficulty in coming to the conclusion that that newspaper was esta blished for the pure' se of carrying out the designs ex pressed in the indictment. On the 12th of June, 1848, the prisoner signed a declaration, the usual one required by law, by which he declared himself publisher and pro prietor of the Tribune, jointly with Mr. Kevin Izoi O'Doherty. They (she jury) would have to decide with what object the prisoner thus connected himself with that newspaper, which was one of those publications of a treasonable character which the statute in question was expressly passed to repress. No one was more attached to the liberty of the press than he (the Attorney-Ge neral) was; but it was a mistake to suppose that those were the enemies of that institution who kept the liberty of the press within proper bounds. If the liberty of the press had suffered a check in the course of the unfortu nate proceedings which had occurred in that country, the blame was attributable to the publishers of those trea sonable parors. The Learned Attorney-General stated, in continuation, that any person who published a treason able composition was culpable, and responsible for that act of his, under the statute in question, no matter whether he were the author of it or not, and then pro ceeded to comment on the article in question, which he did at considerable length. In conclusion, the Attorney- General stated that the Crown had seiz , d upon five manuscript articles at the office of the Tribune. Not one of these was in the handwriting of the prisoner, Mr. Williams, whose counsel might make the best use of that fact that he could. One of them had been proved already to be in the handwriting of Mr. Kevin Izod O'Doherty, but as for the remaining four, all the exer tions that had been made on the part of the Crown to procure evidence respecting them had failed to enable the Crown officers to state as a matter of fact in whose handwriting they were. The Learn2d Gentleman having concludtll, witnesses were examined on the part of the pros-ctvion. Mr. - Ferguson, barrister, defended the prisoner. Tho case being closed, the Court adjourned to this morning, when one of their Lord s hip s w ill a dd ress th e ' jury. DREADFUL MURDER BY AN ARMED PARTY; ROBBERY OF PUBLIC MONEY. The King's County Chronicle contains the following in an extra edition:— " PARSONSTOWN, THURSDAY EVENING.—This morn ing. between eight and nine o'clock, as Major Phibbs, st,ff-offieer of pensioners, accompainied by Sergeant Grant (who acted as his clerk), were proceeding on a car from this town to Roscrea, for the purpose of issuing out the monthly pay to the out pensioners in that dis trict, they were attacked at Clonkelly, within about two miles of this town, by a party of six or eight m'n, all of whom were armed with blunderbusses and pistols. The party stopped the car, pre sented their arms and demanded money. Poor Grant having hesitated to comply, one of the ruffians fired; the contents entered his heart, and deprived him of life in a few moments. The banditti then com pelled Major Phibbs to give up his cash box, containing 1801. in small notes and silver, with which they de camped. The Major then had the body of Grant placed on the car, and drove to the military barracks, which is situate about a mile from the Beene of outrage. Infor mation of the attack having reached this town, Sub- Inspector Duncan and a party of police immediately proceeded in the direction which the assassins had taken, and searched the county for several miles around. The Earl of Rosse, with the local magistrates, and several of the respectable inhabitants, also soon followed, together with about five hundred men of the 59th and 89th regiments. A diligent, but, as yet, ineffectual search was made for the assassins. An inquest will be held to morrow. "Five o'CLoce.—The police have not yet returned. It is reported that they have obtained some clue to the murderers." THE WRIT OF ERROR. The following communication has reached us from a most E ccura e source :—" The counsel and agent of Mr. Smith O'Brien have got Mr. Napier's opinion on the writ of error from Clonmel. The learned gentleman, who is a high authority on Crown law, has no doubt that the writ of error is g,,od. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIM ES.—The change in the curriculum of Cambridge education has taken everybody by surprise. We knew the event must come, but we did not look to its at tainment without a long and arduous struggle. The Comte de Neuilly did not make a speedier exit from the little postern of the Tuileries than a whole host of prejudice from this ancient seat of learning. Many thousands of men scattered throughout the country and the colonies will read the announce ment with a sigh, and regret that it was so long deferred. They will see opportunities given to others that were denied to them. The curse which had been fulminated at Cambridge against all branches of human knowledge save one has at length been raised. The boacls of the University have been compelled to admit I air and sunshine into the regions over which they preside. The report of the Syndicate is an . acknowledgment of the I individuality of intellectual capacity; it admits the principle, and endeavours to give the admission a practical effect. Many hundreds of young men, taken from the highest families in the three kingdoms, will every year have cause to bless the change which opens a I career to their praiseworthy desire for immediate dis- ' tinction, and fits them for a more important sphere of action in after life. Whatever may be the profession or calling they may choose for the future—and at two or three and twenty years of age most young men have made up their minds on the subject—Cambridge now affords them a fitting nur ture. Opportunities of distinction are offered them now which will hereafter stand them in good stead. Will it be believed in after ages that, in the middle of the nineteenth century one of the two seats of education for the middle and upper classes of England practically debarred its pupils from access to all knowledge but that of abstract science in its most arid and distgustful form? If, upon trial, the young men gave evidence of incapacity or distaste for the one pursuit, no more was said, the college tutors abandoned them to their fate—that is, to apathy or idle ness, to indolence or despair. Will it be believed that classical learning, the only other branch of knowledge recognised at Cambridge, was denied as a test of merit to all but these who had previously submAted to a ma thematical ordeal o' a nature so stringent, that to pass through it unscathed argued a singular aptitude if the suSjsets were really comprehended, or a marvellous me mory if they were simply retained. Such, however, has been the case at Cimlaritige. The best years of youth and deesning manhood might have been devoted to a diligent stu Iv of those exquisite monuments of ancient literature which quicken the feelings, interest the iinagination,chas ten the toes and develop the various faculties of the mind; but, however great the diligence, mgr considerable the attainments of the student in these pursuits, he has hitherto been denied at Cambridge thegratificatien of an hen , urabl,s distinction, and that at a period of life when distinctions are metre valued than when experience of the world has done its work and erased the gilding from the gift. The answer given to such an accusation a 3 this is usually delivered in a very few words by a successful representative of the system, who in his youthful days swallowed pr blems an.l theorems (long since quite, quite for gotten) as a jack-pudding might strings of sausages at a country fair. " Aye, sir, but we are a mathematical University t" This is simply to meet the accusers half way, and to p l ea d gu i lty to the charge. But for one for t unate event the ceuntr • mi g ht have waited long enough for th e change which has opened so many sealed books to the curiosity andindustry of the youth of England. The nation owes a debt of gratitude te the Prince Consort, the Chanc e ll or of the University, for having been the first to suggest, a n d s e alteration in th e Camber most determin e to cary out, the system.

Now, is this so? With thee e e- I eeption of Airey, and perhaps one or two others, h as Cambridge produced of late years a single man whose name is illustrious in science beyond the limit of the first milestone on the Trurnpington- road? It it be contended —and we believe the argument to be perfectly just— that the abs - nee or presence of these exceptional cases proves nothing; that Newton would have been Newton, and Herschel Herschel, in a Moravian village, at Paris, or in Sweden ; does the system work well for the meliocrities ? What kind of nurture does the University offer to those who arc to take care of our souls, bodies, and properties, as l)ivinos, Physi ciena, and Lawyers in after years? What kind of training does it give for the H ou se of Commons or for the diplomatic mission ? Let it be remembered that we are talking of the final education of young men, not Of the first awakening of the nascent intelligence of the child. There is no question of big A and little C ; of deciding whether it be more advisable to show the people i n the lecture-room the picture of a cow and require them to name the animal, or first to name the animal and then require them to draw the cow. We are speak inn- of young men who in two or three years, or perhaps 'n a few months , mu st be thrown out into the world to make the hest fight of it they can; and, unless they be endowed with extraordinary energy, to follow the bias received during their university career. The Prince Consort might well be astonished tam find the Professor ships of Modern Tlistery end Political Eeene my but a name. He might , 0,.. - ;r:der when he :a:formed that the study of the Civil Law, and the examinations for degrees in this faculty, n ere as great a laughing stock at Cambridge as the sassing of the line on • board ship ; and. that anything like a study of Eng lish lew—evcn so much as the perusal of Blackstone s Commentaries—w as a thing unknown in the University. The Prince, it is not improbable, would next rna.ko in- THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4, iB4B. quiry of practical men in London as to the value of me dical training at Cambridge. He would find that although not so profoundly ridiculous as the ceremonies observed for the legal distinctions, it was slipshod and insufficient to the last degree—even leaving anatomy out e of . the question. He would then be told that it was only within a u wthin a very few years, and after a weary tt•ngghost of prejudices, that examinations in uivinity were knukn own. h m o o l rye orders;th n yet another it on that heofU is p n r i e ve p r a s r i i t o y g ha st v o o d o e n n e ti effi fo c r e quite recently what we have stated was . the fact. for tii - p G I ormi Grinders, the cel Institution rated h y bur. Dtheickens, schoolharitahle Knifewas as much to the purpose as the A w ealthy and famous University of Cambridge. Modern languages, modern history , the histories of treaties, ap peared to the heads of houses but as so mach nameless trash. A fellow of Sidney Sussex College woull hive held himself entitled to turn up his nose at Prince Tal leyrand and a sucking Mathematical Bachelor, oozing with sines and cosines, have held Monsieur Guizst or Mr. Hallam but in slight esteem. " May it please your Royal Highness, we are a Mathematical University." . - I hat of course was decisive upon the point. His Royal Highness, however, was not pleased at all, and the country, in our opinioa, owes him a debt of deep grati tude for the change in the monstrous system hitherto pursuel in the University. The public tins: is occu pied with so many important matters that r equ i re i nstant attention that any subject that can be postponed, or that is not of immediate party interest, is forgotten or ca t aside. That is the only explanation that can be offered for the continuance of such a system. The great body of the public—that is to say, the public who do not write B.A. or M.A. after their names, may have been the dupes of the nomenclature of the Cambridge University calendar. They may have assumed that the pros lessors were bona fide professors, whose lectures were attended with as much zeal and effLct as those of the corresponding functionaries in the foreign universities. No such thing. These professors are but as the war riors of straw the Chin ese are wont to p l ace b y t h e s id e of their wooden guns in order to exaggerate the appre hensions of their power. The Cambridgeshire professors leave the pupils to the college tutor, and the college tutor leaves them to the private tutor, who is, in nine cases out of ten, a young man who has himself but just taken his degree. It is by this class of men—we will venture to say by this class of men only—that the Uni versity education is practically conducted. Their office is simply to cram their pupils with the latest fashions in mathematics, and to time their cramming so nicely that the industrious young man shall be tilled to the full extent of his capacity. at the moment he staggers into the Senate-house for examination. POST.—It seems that a notice has been circulated among those whose property lies by the shore of the Thames that at certain periods of November, December, I and January high tides may be expected. The aimed ance of rain which has fatten is likely to swell the rivet towards its source, and the abounting waters, meeting the incoming tide from the sea, may probably rise far above their usual level. They who have property by the shore are therefore put upon their guard. They are judiciously warned to provide in time for the safety of their goods. It is a pity that, while there is enough o: good sense in the community to lead to precautions of this kind, concerning timber, coals, and stores of various kinds likely to be damaged or swept away by the rising Tnames, the community treats with practical neglect a mach more important ebbing and flowing,which affects all property that is to be bought and sold—we mean the ebbing and flowing of the currency. Great, no doubt, is the danger of an excessive flowing of the tide in the Thames, but a thousand times greater is the danger of an excessive ebbing of the tide of money in this country. And yet regarding this there is no one to give warning. There is no one whose business it is to watch the probable course of events, and to give autho ritative warning of what may be expected. Persons who call themselves practical statesmen, and who are ready enough to talk about the currency, do not think it neces sary to mark, as they ought to do, the fluctuations of this wonderful agent upon the fortunes of almost all ranks and conditions of men in such a society as that of Great Britain. The welfare certainly—perhaps the health and the lives—of thousands depend upon that impetus to business—that support of commercial interchange which the currency supplies. We take currency in its largest sense; it may be bills of exchange, or cheques on bankers, or bank notes, or specie, anything which for the time will be accepted as the representative of property, and enable persons whose industry is in action to go on with good hope of a market for what they are able to produce. It is because our currency is so complicated, and consists of various elements, which various circumstances and accidents may render abundant, or may cause to disappear, or make unavail able for their purposes as currency, that the greatest care is required, to look forward, to see in advance the flow or the ebb which ought reasonably to be expected, and to give warning to the owners of property, and to those who are bound to be furnished, at fixed future periods, with certain portions of the currency, whether it be scarce or abundant. Until 1844 the Bank of England had the power, to some extent, of meeting the circum stance of an ebb in the currency. When it had run up into Lombard-street, and was lying in the reservoirs of the private bankers, instead of flowing in the channels necessary to support and facilitate commerce, then the Brnk, finding that the country required currency, though it did not require gold, was wont to increase its issue of notes, which increase was drawn back again as soon as returning confidence in commercial bills induced the managers of the Lombard-street reservoirs to open their sluices. It occurred to the wisdom of Sir R. Peel, in 1844, to put an end to this remedial power in the Bank of England. The Legislature consented to what Sir R. Peel proposed, and the consequence is that now, not only is there no warning given to the public of a probable ebb in the currency, but, when it arrives, there is no possible remedy for the evil but that of authorising a violation of the law, This remedy was actually resorted to in Octo ber, 1847. But even this seems to have taught no useful lesson to the stupid Peel and Wood bigotry in the Legis -1 iture. Peel, Wood, Russell, and the rust, voted that there was no occasion for a relaxation of the law of 1844, though Russell and Wood had themselves been obliged (for fear of something worse) to authorise the Bank to violate that law the pressure of which had pro duced awful commercial calamities. From these calami ties the commerce of the country is still suffering, but still the currency bigots affect a mighty superiority of wisdom, and nothing has been done to guard the country against the recurrence of such a fearful crisis as that of October, 1847. ASHFORD MECHANICS' INSTI TUTION. (From the Kent Herald.) . .. It appears to us a delightful assurance that civilization is rapidly extending to what were eo long the neglected classes of society, and that the resources and delights of pure intellectual pursuits are as properly appreciated in a mechanics' institute, as they are an higher establish ments. To all such societies, well constituted—and as far as our knowledge goes, their constitution is uni formly irreproachable—and to all such " Introductory Lectures" as that delivered by the Rev. John Dufton, Rtctor of Warehorne, before the Ashford and Alfred M chanics' Instutes, at the Assernisly-rooms, Ashford, on Thursday evening last—it will be our p tra,mount duty to give every assistance we have it i❑ our power to bestow. Ignorance is an evil. the pressure of which becomes now every day heavier on grown-up people, who see the young ones outstrip them in cultivation and knowledge. We rejoice, there fore, to see Mr. Dufton. periodically come for ward to speak of the benefits arising from mechanics' Institutions, and prove the weakness of the objections which have been taken against their establishment. It is cons ding to see subjects like them• discussed in such quarters by a clergyman of the Established Church. We hope the time is not far distant when more clergymen will willingly come forward with a spirit of active and anxious benevolence to promote the great cause of ge neral education, and better the condition of the working classes by securing to them the full advantages of which these institutions may be made producive. Those who cry out, and many there are from both extremes of party, that educatio❑ is no remedy against poverty and hunger, are blind to the fact that, although a starving man will get no bread at the school or institute, yet schools and mechanics' institutes, and such like, are the best means of preventing in future thousands from being reduced to the condition of starving. How much 1 eis of time, and labour, and of capital is occa-ioned by the unskilfulness of workmen I How much of their money and resources is daily wasted by the p or from not understanding the principles of demesjc economy and sobriety! How much unhappiness is entailed upon them selves and their families by their violent tempers and passions, from not having their minds ca sly brought into moral training! Is it not a truth susceptible of demonstration, that by far the greater number of those who are now in distress might have in time prevented their being reduced to it ? And is it not equally cer tain that the want of education—we mean moral and intellectual education —made them careless of the future? If we canna now at once put a stop to the miser• they have thus brought upon themselves, ought we not at least to guard against a perpetuation of the evil, by affording every man the means of acquiring that information which may be of use to him through life and in his good work is par ticulartht sphere ?

A NOVEL Assn&Arms COMPANY.—An assurance company, we are informed, has been established for the a , surance of horses in Paris, under the title of the Com_ pagne d'Assurance pour les Chevaur. This is a branch of life assurance to which we imagine our British actu aries have not hitherto turned their attention. We also doubt much whether any stitistics are in exi,tenca on which our French friends can form their data. Why, if you assure horses, should you not also assure cattle, sheep, dogs, swine, and cats? Die study is indeed a novel one. The promoters •of the aliuve company are sanguine as to their success.— Theßeporter and Assurance Chronicle. PERMANENT PAUPERISM.—It is a curious fact that on one day last week three orders of repauval i. ; _ere taken out before the magistrates of a Yerkshire borough in the cases of paupers who had been respectively eighteen, thirty-eight, and fifty-three years in uninterrupted re ceipt of parish pay. THE PEACE CONGRESS. CONFERENCE OF TIIE FRIENDS OF PEACE AT THE nAir, OF COMMERCE, ON TUES DAY MORNING L.Y=.T, THE 31sT ULT. A numerous and :esp-ctable assemblage of the friends to the great and growing cause of universal peace, met at the Hail of Commeue on the abo-ze. morning, to consider various practical points and future operations necessarily arising out of the advancing. character of their movement. The meeting had been called by cir cular, and in obedience to the call gentlemen assembled on the occasion from different and distant parts of the kingdom; and a collection of more earnest, business-like men is very rarely seen. They evidently had the great cause at heart, and their whole bearing evinced a sober determination of purpose, that nothing short of confi dence in ultimate success could produce. JOSEPH STURGE, Esq., of Birmingham, having been voted to the chair, proceed, d to open the business, by explaining its nature and objects, and described the character of the interview between the deputation and Lord John Russell. Messrs. Richard, Scoble, Fry, and Stokes having been appointed secretaries to the Conference, and a large number of letters of adhesion to the cause from eminent men, at home and abroad, having been read or reported, among whom were the names of Dr. Dick, of Dundee, Dr. Mortimer, of London, Dr. John P. Smith, of Ho merten, Mr. Simpson, of Trinity College, Cambridge, &c.—the address to the Governments of Europe and Americr, adopted at the Congress at Brussels, was also read. The time and place of holding another Con gress on the continent of Europe were then discussed at length, awl with great intelligence, at the close of which it was unanimously resolved that another Congress should be held at the most suitable time and place; and a further discussion having ensued, it was resolved si equal unanimity, that preference should be given to Paris as the place, and to August, 1849, es the time. The necessity of spreading more extensively on the Con tinent the proceedings at the recant Congress at Brus sels was then discussed ; and it was resolved that a full and authentic account of that Congress should be pub lished in the French language. The importance of in troducing the question of arbitration to the House of Commons was then considered, and after close examina tion, it was referred to the committee to obtain the ser vices of some influential Member of the House for this purpose, and it was further resolved that suitable mea sures should be taken to stimulate the constituencies throughout the country to influence their representatives to support the question whenever it should come before the House. A committee, consisting of thirty-two gen tlemen, residing in London and its vicinity, was then appointed to carry into effect the resolutions and recom mendations of the Conference, with power to add to their number. It was also resolved unanimously that a special fund of not less than 5,000/. should be raised for the ac complishment of these various objects, and that the friends of peace throughout the country should be re cunamended to contribute liberally to this special effort, The committee having been duly authorised and in structed to adopt suitable measures for carrying into ef fect the resolutions of the Conference, the meeting closed with a very general conviction that the earnestness which had been displayed was a presage of more ex tended success to the cause of peace throughout the world.

ADDRESS OF THE PEACE CONGRESS TO TIIE GOVERNMENTS OF EUROPE AND AMERICA. In the month of September last, a Congress was held in the city of Brussels, whose great object was to promote and secure permanent peace among the civilized nations of the earth, by finding, if possible, an efficient substitute for the bloody, uncertain, and costly arbitrament of war. The Congress was composed of numerous individuals, speak ing various languages, living under diverse forms of government, and entertaining different political opinions and religious convictions, but drawn together by a com mon sentiment of humanity, and an ardent desire to pro mote the welfare of mankind, by removing the causes and incentives to war. The eminent position which you occupy in the councils of the nations of Europe and America, induces the Con gress, of which we are the representatives, to submit to your serious consideration the great and important questions which formed the subject of their anxious de liberations ; and respectfully, yet earnestly, to invite your attention to the conclusions at which they arrived. They will be found embodied in the following resolutions: Ist. That, in the judgment of this Congress, au appeal to arms fur the purpose of deciding disputes among nations, is a castoksa condemned alike by religion, reason, justice, humanity, and the best interests of the people; and that, therefore, it considers it to b 3 th.! duty of the civilized world to adopt measures calculated to effect its cwire abolition. 21 That it is of the highest importance to urge on the several Governments of Europe awl America, the necessity of introducing a clause into all international treaties, providing for the settlement of all disputes by arbitration, in an amicable manner, and according to the rules of justice and equity—special arbitrators, or a supreme international Court, to be invested with power to decide in cases of necessity, as a last resort. 3d. Teat the speedy convocation of a Congress of Nations, composed of duly appointed representatives, for the purpose of framing a well-digested and authoritative inter❑ational Code, is of the greatest importance, in asmuch as the organization of such s body and the unanimous adoption of such a Cole, would be an effectual means of rronsoting universal peace. 4th. That this Congress respectfully calls the attention of civilised Governments to the necessity of a general and simultaneous di,o.rinament, as a means whereny they may greatly diminish the financial burthens which press upon them ; remove a fertile cruse of irritation and in quietude ; inspire mutual confidence ; and promote the interchange of good offices, which, while they advance the interests of each state in particular, contribute largely to the maintenance of general peace, and to the lasting prosperity of nations. . . _ These substitutes for war adopted by the Congress re quire no arguments to enforce them, for it is evident that if they be adopted and applied, that terrible scourge of humanity will cease to afflict and degr a d e t h e ffl nations. Few, if any of the wars, which for centuri es past have desolated the earth, can be justified on th e ground of equity, utility, or necessity ; nor can any one of them be cited whose fearful results are not loudly condemned by the voice of humanity and religion. The war-spirit of past generations has loaded most, if not all civilised nations with enormous debts, paralyzed their industry, interrupted their commerce, retarded the progress of science, literature, and art, and created a spirit of jea lousy and animosity among the nations which long years of peace have not been able completely to subdue. Europe at this moment presents the melancholy spec tacle of an " armed peace." Her mighty legions are ready to take the field; and it is feared that under these melancholy circumstances a single spark from the torch of War, may wrap the world in fl a mes : May God avert so terrible a catastrophe ! The great questions of Peace and War are confided to the hands of those to whom the government of the na tions has been entrusted. Their responsibility is as great as their power ; and while the Congress would "rnastly pray that " The God of Peace" may deign to preside over their councils, it would implore them, in the name of the dearest interests of humanity, civiliza tion, and religion, promptly to adopt the most effective measures for preventing a return of the horrors of war, and for securing to all nations the blessings of a solid and lasting peace. The substit u ti on o f ar bi trat i on f or wa r would be an immense step towards this object; the principle, and the means for giving it effect, might be embodied in special treaties, but the progress et sound political opinions p eed o f the most enlightened Th leach still farther. which shall plan e convening and o e f m a i n C e n o t n Cg e e s a s , o c f o m a 1 - 1 countries, for the pur po se nations o n a solid and' t of framing an international code, h in t e e i relations a b s i e s t ; w e a e a n d t t h h e e d i i n ff is e t re i u n . t .i n of a Hi g h C ourt comprehensive in accordance with the great and tion of moot questionso Nations, f or th e fin a l adjudica the causes principlesof war, of but cement a no bl e an d h o ly such a Code, would not only alliance betwe en both governments remove anticipation ogfesnoeraland and peoples. great a simultaneous di sarmament I n necessity the should take place, as suc h an act, without compromising the dignity or impairing the strength of governments, would be the surest gwirantee for the preservation of general peace, and the advancement of public prosperity. The Congress is fully aware that the force of circum stances, the progress of modern industry and commerce, the gre%tar facility and frequency of communication bc twer,n the nations, the diffusion of knowledge, and the more elevated sentiments of humanity and religion, all tend to prevent the recurrence of war; but it is not less assured that it remains with the governments of the civilised world to put an end to that fatal and sanguinary custom, by adopting those wise and necessary measures which shall lead to so happy a result. In submitting to statesmen the recommendations em bodied in the resolutions, the Congress entertain a just and legitimate confidence that they will not be disre garded; and that the Governments of Europe and America,:animated by an ardent and sincere desire to promote the welfare of the great commonwealth of na• tions, will determine as in the performance of a sacred duty, to give them a practical application, and thus aid in securing the peace of the world. AUGUSTE VISSCHERS, Belgium President. WILLIAM EIVART, England ELIHU BUHEITT, Uni:ed States F RAN CISQUE BOUVET, F rance Vice Presidents. SURINGAR, Holland POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Peter Felton, a man who has the appearance of a farmer, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having attempted to steal two horses, the property of Mr. Wood, livery stablekeeper, of Camomile-streee This was one of a great number of attempts to plunder the prosecutor, who, upon finding what the object of the prisoner was, took him into custody himself without any ceremony, notwithstanding the repeated assurances of the fellow that there was a mistake committed as to his integrity. Mr. Wood's statement was briefly to the following effect:—The prisoner called at Mr. Wood's premises on Thursday, for the purpose of looking at a couple of car riage horses. He had a few weeks before made his ap pearance at the stables, and said he was badly off; and Mr. Wood, although not at all acquainted with him, gave him a shilling from mere compassion. In applying to Mr. Wood, the prisoner referred to that instance of libe rality, arid said, "As you did me a good turn, I am going to do you one. 1 have got the situation of farmer and bailiff to Lady Clinton, in Barkway, in Hertford shire, and as her ladyship is in want of a couple of good horses, I have recommended you as a dealer." Mr. Wood asked him what sort of horses, and he said a pair of light ones. In the course of conversation Mr. Wood's experience enabled him to detect the rogue under this disguise of gratitude, and having put se veral questions to the prisoner which rather confounded the customer, proposed to call at the town house of Lady Clinton on the subject, and afterwards to write to her Ladyship. Neither of these propositions being at all palatable to the prisoner, Mr. Wood said to him, there not being the least doubt of his intention to steal the horses, " What a base villain you must be to want to rob me of my property." Upon being conveyed to the station-house, the prisoner not only persevered in his false representation, but was excessively abusive to the complainant, and addressed him in the coarsest an d tmoosrteofeffr the ensivemlaanttgeuratgo the language, i r t d w my as a co e n r. sidered advisable The LORD MAYOR asked the prisoner whether he wished to say anything? The prisoner said that all he should say might be used to his prejudice if his prosecutor pleased. He then said that he ought to go down on his knees for pardon to Mr. Wood for having made such an attempt to impose upon him; but he hoped for forgiveness, when it was known that his skull had been fractured by an accident on a railway, upon an occasion when the engineer was killed, and that whenever he drunk spirits he was wholly des titute of reason, and would not hesitate to commit any violence. lie admitted that he was not in the service of Lady Clinton, and that he had not been commissioned by her Ladyship to purchase the horses. He said that he had been drinking several glasses of gin just before he saw Mr. Wood, and that what he said and did was entirely dictated by the delusion arising from the cursed lush. The Loan MAYOR—You seem to have managed this business very ingeniously for a man out of his senses. ba iliff. The her ser v i ce ? Have you ever been in the service of Lady Clinton? Prisoner—About eleven or twelve years ago I was in her Ladyship's LOAD service MAYOß—Why a aa— farmerW h y e Prisoner—l married while in her Ladyship's service, and my wife wished to have a house of her own, so I took a house and gave 2,0001. for it, and I afterwards sold it oeo aid and youbaili for 600/. The LORD MAYOR—Was the 2,0001. your own money? Prisoner--It was ; I saved it in service. The LORD MAYOR—I shall remand the prisoner till Tuesday, and I dare say we shall hear something from Lady Clinton about him in the meantime. William Legg, who was a few days ago charged with having married Dinah Rowe, his first wife being alive, was brought up for final examination. Henry Payne, of Eldon-terrace, Southampton, tailor, stated that he was present when the prisoner, on the 20th of September, 1839, was married to Sophia Parker, in the parish church of St. Michael's, Southampton. He was one of the subscribing witnesses to the ceremony, and had subsequently visited the married couple at Bit tern, near Southampton, and he had seen the prisoner's wife that day. Dinah Rowe said that she had known the prisoner eighteen months, and had married him on the 3d of last July, and lived with him until she heard of his former marriage. Mr. Wontner submitted that there were several cir cumstances of extenuation in the case. In the first place, he had been, when a mere boy, inveigled into a union with a woman considerably his senior, and her jealousy had caused a separation. Having then become a butler in ,the family of the late Sir William Curtis, who had died in his arms, he soon aftewards was engaged in a family in whose service Dinah Rowe lived. The marriage arose out of that acquaintance, and was actually entered into by the prisoner as a sort of amends for the dangerous intimacy which took place between him and that young woman. The evidence could not be resisted, but it was to be hoped that the Lord Mayor would take bail for the prisoner's appearance. The LORD MAYOR said the circumstances just stated might go to a jury, but he certainly could not take bail ; and upon learning that the prisoner's wife had three children, and had been allowed no more than ss. a week by the prisoner for the support of the whole family, stated that he could see no extenuating circumstances at all in the case. The prisoner was then committed for trial. BOW-STREET, William Frederick Howe, a clerk, appeared upon a summons to answer a complaint preferred against him for having unlawfully forged the signature of Mr. Charles Mathews to a certain order of admission to the pit of the Lyceum Theatre, with intent to defraud him. The defendant pleaded guilty. Mr. Lewis attended to support the charge, which _he reminded the Court was an indictable offence. t ( admitted A constable of th e A di v i s i on produced an order which he received on the 26th ult. from the check kr of the pit entrance,vin n g cp t i r e a a c ti e n d n i h t ad to be t e h n e defendant, he went t o hi m at the Bedford-chambers, and he a not only ht the order having i written by him, but that he had also written two or three dozen for the Adelphi Theatre, which he presented to his acquaintances for a lark, but without any intention to defraud. Mr. Wilmot, the check-taker, said that during the rush on the evening of the 26th the order was presented, and from the answer given to his questions the forgery was traced to the defendant. There were no orders granted for the pit, and the signature to the one pro duced bore no resemblance to Mr. Mathews' hand writing, The defendant assured the Court that he never con templated any fraud, and he wrote the order simply for the purpose of enjoying a lark at the expense of his friends, under the impression that, as a matter of course, it would be rejected, and in proof of it the matter was the subject of conversation on board a steamer coming from Greenwich the day before it was admitted. Mr. JARDINE said that it was certainly playingg with edged tools, and although it might appear that no fraud hewsto was really intended, it would be for Mr. Mat determine if he would prosecute the charge at the sessions. Mr. Lewis—And the defendant might also be held to bail to be of good behaviour. Mr. JARDINE expressed a hope that such a course to would be quite sufficient, and ordered the defendant enter into his own recognizinces 4 s n the sum of 50/, to be of good behaviour for the next six months. CLERKEN WELL. Mr. Herring, the owner of me nagerie in the New- the instance of the road, appeared to a summon s, at parish authorities of St. Pancras, for a nuisance. The menagerie, it appeared, h a d existed for many years past, and the noxious smells arising therefrom had seriously affected the neighbours, who now complained of the nuisance. had Mr. Skelding, surgeon, examined the premise s , and &C. and said that th e p ens in which the animals, ' were , kept, the w a ll s , an d the earth, were sa turated with filth, so as t o b e hi g hly dangerous to the health of the inhabitants. Mr. Tettwurre , complimented the parish authorities for taking up the matter, and ho adjourned the case until Thursday next, for the purpose of having the pre mises purified, and the nuisance complained of entirely removed, or ho would certainly make his order that the parish should remove it.

(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 3.) SuGAn.—To-day little variation took place in the value of Raw Sugar, but the home and export demand was not much brisker, and supplies were plentiful. West India was not offered at any decline, but home trade buyers operated with caution, and the purchases amounted to only 560 hhds and trcs, including at auction 93 hhds 35 brls Demerara, chrif.- tslized, which sold at 47s 6d for fine, 40s to 44s 6d for middling to good, and low 34s 6d.

TEA.—There has been no arrival this week, and mer chants refrained from submitting any at auction. No improvement is visible in the position of the market, and privately a large amount is on offer. For back prices remain much the same as on this day week, the amount of business concluded has been of little moment, as the trade only purchase sufficient for their present wants.

There was an appearance of more activity in the demand for wheat at the commence ment of business, but it did not continue, and the actual sales were only moderate, without any general improve ment in prices. A large. parcel of American white was sold to a speculator, but the price was not allowed to transpire. There was very little done in flour, and pre vious rates were scarcely supported for either Irish or American. Barley, beans, and peas were all fully as dear, with only a moderate demand. Oats and oatmeal were heavy of sale, and prices were rather easier. There was not much done in Indian corn or meal; and although the best descriptions of yellow were held with firmness for full prices, secondary kinds and white were fully 13t1 to Is per 480Ibs. cheaper. NEWBURY, Nov. 2.—The supply of wheat to-day was large, but principally composed of the new crop, most of which was extremely damp in hand, and unfit for milling purposes; what little old was in offer, together with the finest new, said freely at rather improv ing rates, whilst other descriptions were almost unsaleable at very low rates. Barley, in mo derate supply, the (1. mend for which has been - good, and the finest malting descriptions advanced is to 2s per quarter ; other descriptions also a better sale at late rates.

DEVIZES, Nov. 2.—We had a good supply of Wheat, of which a fair proportion, perhaps a sixth part, was of last year's growth; the best qualities, both old and new, sold at a trifling advance, and in some few instances from is to Is 6d a quarter above last week's prices was realized, but this was by no means general; the inferior out of condition Wheats were quite unsaleable; the best new fetched 27s a sack, and the best old 31s; a ; , all in fair condition a good clearance was made.
