Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will' you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

The Royal Mail steamer Asia, which sailed from Boston on the 31st ult. and from Halifax on the 2d inst., has arrived off the harbour. She brings 137 passengers, and has $2,500 (£360 sterling) on freight. Having transferred four passengers, 126 sacks mails, and the latest telegrams, she proceeded for Liverpool, all well. NEW YORK, Jan. 30 (Evening). General Weitzel and General ejia's correspondence relative to the capture of Bagdad has been published. The former states he sent 300 men to Bagdad, at the request of General Escobedo, purely as an act of humanity—not to perform any service for either party. General Mejia asserted briefly that he had notified his Government of all that had occurred at Bagdad. The French naval com mander, before leaving for Vera Cruz, protested against the invasion of Mexico by American soldiers. General Sheridan has refused to permit emigrants to leave New Orleans for Mexico. Hs acts under instructions from Washington. The Revenue Commission has submitted to Congress a report proposing a tax of 5 cents per lb. on cotton, and a reduction of the tax on distilled spirits to $1 per gallon. The report relating to the reciprocity treaty, prepared at the request of the Secretary of the Treasury, has been laid on the desks of members of Congress. It includes a bill proposing to continue the present treaty one year, from March next, provided Canada repeals the duties and taxes on certain enumerated articles, raises the internal tax on certain other articles, and discountenances the free ports on Lakes Huron and Superior, with some other advantages to be secured to the United States. Official adviccs from El Pasa of the 30th December say that Juarez is still there. Intercepted letters from General Escobedo have been published, stating that he is indebted to the Americans on the Texas side of the river for valuable military stores. Gen. Cortinas had obtained some shells from Brownsville. Guaymas advices of the 16th Dec., ,ria San Francisco, state that the Republicans had captured Alamosan (?). President Johnson has communicated to the Senate Mr. Stanton's opinion, endorsed by himself, that it is inconsis tent with the public interest to furnish Congress with the letters of General Sheridan and other Federal officers, re garding the present condition of affairs on the southern frontier, especially in relation to any violation of neutrality by the armies occupying the right bank of the Rio Grande. The House of Representatives re-committed the consti tutional amendment relative to representation, with all pending propositions, to the Re-construction:Committee, with instructions. The House of Representatives has refused to grant the privilege of the floor to members from Arkansas, which privilege has been granted to the Tennessee members. Senator Raymond has made a long speech opposing the constitutional amendment, and supporting President John son's re-construction policy. President Johnson, at an interview with the leading Senators, expressed his disapprobation of any further con stitutional amendments ; but, if there must bo any amend ment, which at present he deemed unnecessary, he knew of none better than to make the entire number of voters the representative basis, and the total value of property the basis of direct taxation. He regarded the agitation of negro franchise in the district of Columbia at present as ill-timed, and calculated to stir up hatred between the two races, resulting in injury to both. There are rumours in Richmond that the President pro posed to place Virginia under a provisional governorship, in consequence of the hostile attitude of theLegislature,and the persistency of the people to elect disloyal candidates. General Sickles has 'issued an order. in Charleston re minding the South Carolinians that they are still under martial law, arranging the relations between whites and blacks, and announcing their equality before the law. Mr. Seward has returned to Washington. The authori ties and people of St. Thomas and Cuba received him with marked courtesy and respect. At St. Thomas he had an interview with Gen. Santa Anna that the United States would never permit the permanent establishment of the empire of Mexico. The New York World's correspondent said that Mr. Seward had an interview at Havana with the aide-de-camp of the Emperor Maximilian. Gen. Sheridan has forbidden emigrants to leave New Orleans for Mexico. It is reported that several Chilian privateers are cruising round the island of Cuba. The House of Representatives adopted, by a vote of 120 to 46, the resolution reported from the Construction Com mittee for a constitutional amendment apportioning repre sentatives according to the population, excluding those de prived of the suffrage on account of colour. The provision for apportioning direct taxes has been stricken out. Dur ing the debate Mr. Stevens strongly animadverted on tho President making known his views on the constitutional amendment, through the press, at a time when the house was legislating on the subject. The New York 7ribune says thtit M. do Montholon has communicated to Mr. Seward the reply of the French Go vernment to Mr. Seward's note concerning the Mexican empire. The New York Herald says that at a banquet given by the Captain-General of Havana, Mr. Seward made a speech offering the sentiment that Spain was the only European power that had any right to location in America, since Spain had always been eminently American. Mr. Seward, whilst in Havana, refused to receive Baron Magnus, the Prussian minister to the Emperor Maximilian, who was en route to Mexico. The Committee of Ways and Means has reported to Con gress a bill authorising the Secretary of the Treasury to sell bonds at home or abroad for funding the currency, but not authorising any increase of the public debt. The in terest on the bonds sold abroad must not exceed five per cent. The principal must be made payable in coin or cur rency of the country where made payable. Toronto despatches have caused renewed Fenian alarm along the frontier. The military has been very much strengthened, owing to information that General Sweeney had forces for a "raid" on the pi incipal towns.: The Africa has arrived at Halifax. The New York has arrived out. Senator Wade, of Ohio, was assaulted by a drun ken or crazy man in his room at Washington lately, but easily got rid of his assailant. Senator Sumner has had a negro's finger sent to him in a box, with an insulting message, from some op poser of equal suffrage in the District. Judge Field, of California, now in Washington, has had an attempt made on his life by a torpedo box, which he luckily found the nature of in season to prevent any injury. Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, who has been in Cuba some weeks, recruiting his health, has returned better, but not fully recovered. General Sweeney, the Federal official lately dis missed from the United States army, has been summoned to Washington, and it is reported that he is to be rein stated. It ought not to be true.' Raphael Semmes, the famous captain of the Alabama, is held in close confinement at the Marine Bar racks, Washington, awaiting the action of the Government. Colonel Commandant Jacob Zeilin, United States Marine Corps, is intrusted with his safe keeping. Semmes is in good health and spirits, and confident of being able to justify his conduct during the Rebellion. William H. Morgan, late Brigadier-General, has made Memphis, Tenn., his home, and proposes hereafter to practise law, collect claims against the Government, and act as general commissioner of deeds. • Mrs. Douglas, widow of the late Senator Douglas, was recently married to Brevet Brigadier General Wil liams, A.A.G.U.S.A., who is now on duty at the War De partment. General Joe Johnson is reported to have said re -cently that under the President's liberal, humane, and truly:Democratic policy of reconstruction, the South would soon get over the visible effects of the war, and that in four years' time the United States would be the most prosper ous and powerful of all nations and of all Governments. _ _ _ General Thomas has accepted the gold medal ordered by the State of Tennessee in commemoration of his achievements as a soldier, and particularly the defence of Nashville against General Hood. General W. F. (Baldy) Smith has been granted a six months' leave of absence on account of ill health. The Memphis Appeal of the sth January comes to us in mourning, on account of the death of Benjamin F. Dill, its proprietor and editor. W. F. Samford, Esq., of Alabama, has engaged to write the life of the Hon. Wm. L. Yancey. The rebel General Bushrod R. Johnson has settled down in Nashville as a real estate agent. Gen. M'Dowell has been sued for $lOO,OOO for arbitrary arrests in California. Ex-Governor Lowe, of Maryland, has not been pardoned by the President. The Baltimore American, says Governor Bradford' refuses to.sign the petition. Robert Toombs is at Havana, where his wife joined him recently. They have abundant means, having exported and sold considerable cotton belonging to the General. Horatio Stone, a New York sculptor, has just completed a bust of Dr. Bellows in plaster, preparatory to its execution in marble. John Brougham is playing in Brooklyn, with an extemporised company gathered from the various New York Theatres. Judge 0. A. Lochrane, of Macon, Ga., a native Irishman, has written a long letter urging his country men in the South to have nothing to do with the Fenian movement. _ .................. General G. T. Anderson, late C. S. A., is spoken of in connection with the office of Chief Marshal of Atlanta. George Francis Train ' has bought 434 acres of forest land in Omaha, Nebraska, for $75,000, for his Cottage Company and for a Central Park. George says Omaha is destined to be one of the great cities of the con tinent. General John B. Gordon is about to locate at Brunswick, Georgia, where he will engage in the lumber business. It is his purpose to erect two large mills on the Brunswick Railroad, and will carry on an extensive busi ness in connection with other gentlemen. The gas monopolists of Chicago are about coming to grief, as a new gas, made from crude petroleum, is being introduced there. The Chicago Post says that the light of the petroleum gas is fully four times greater than the light of the coal gas, and that it can be made at a very much less cost. The Atlanta (Georgia) lntelligencer, of the 6th ultimo, closes an article headed "New England scheming again," by telling the Fenians that "in New England they have an enemy more to be feared in the future than Old England—an enemy with all the world—a ruthless, forni cating enemy, whom no law, human or divine, ever yet restrained in her greed after gain and in her intolerance and fanaticism." The New York, News has " private information" which warrants it in saying that Stephens, the Irish Fenian, will not visit the United States for some time to come. Governor Worth says, in his address to the people of North Carolina, "Wo did not go voluntarily into the lato calamitous rebellion. The action of coterminous States forced us to tako sides in the strife. We elected to go with our section ; and having taken our position we acted with good faith to our associations, and bore our selves gallantly in the fight. Being vanquished we sub mit as becomes a brave people. The President, as com mander-in-chief of the military powers of the nation, mag nanimously trusts us. Ido not believe there is a citizen of the State who is unworthy of this confidence." Mr. Mercer's enterprise to transport several hundreds of young ladies of the "anxious and aimless" class from New England to Washington Territory has met with many obstacles, and has proved to a considerable de gree a failure. His steamer, the Continental, sailed from New York on Wednesday with 75 women and 50 men. So that company will only reduce the painful pre ponderance of male population in the distant territory by 25. A company, with a capital of $lOO,OOO, has been formed in Mifflin county, Ohio, for the cultivation of grapes. A company has been formed, with a capital of $300,000 ($llO,OOO paid in), for mining at the Vermillion Lake Gold Mines in Northern Minnesota. Utah Territory now contains 90,000 inhabitants. Great Salt Lake City has 17,000 inhabitant; and there are several towns with from four to six thousand people. The custom of selling coloured people in Dela ware for a term of years, as a punishment for crime, is still kept up, though now it does not amount to much. Four persons wore sold a few days since, end brought from twelve to fifteen cents each, and their purchasers imme diately let them go. _ The Columbus (Georgia) Sun understands that a company of prominent gentlemen of that city will leave for Mexico at an early day. Among them is Judge W. G. Swan, formerly of Knoxville, and an ex-member of the rebel Congress, who for some time past has been following his profession at Columbus. The Sun says the number of colonists will be increased at New Orleans to some 26 persons. _ Regalias are to be admitted into the United States free of duty. So says the Secretary of the Trea sury. The Saturday Press says the Fenians, lately spoiling for a fight, are now fighting for the spoils. North Carolina has now extensive iron works in Chatham county, in tho Deep river region. Coal and iron ore abound, and there is every chance for development. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, Feb. 1 (Evening), Money easy ; Gold 1401. Exchange on London, 151} Pcris, 3 711.

A TOOTII TO CHIP Ax EGG !---Professor Owen, in his new work " On the Anatomy of Vertebrates," writes as follows :—" In snakes and lizards, a sharp tooth is developed in the premaxillary of the embryo, towards the close of incubation, wherewith they cut through the tough egg-shell. The operation of this transitory and purposive weapon has been observed by Weinland ; it totally disappears in the adult of most ophidia. For break ing through the more brittle shell in cholonia, the embryo is provided with a sort of horn or hard excrescence above the end of the upper jaw ; this afterwards disappears. In the crocodilia, the snout of the nearly-hatched young is sufficiently hard to break the egg-shell ; but there is no distinct tubercle, nor any precociously-developed pre maxillary tooth. Either on the hypothesis of special adaptation of this structure to the need of breaking the shell, says a critic in the Reader, or on the theory of its being the remnant of an imparial dermal element attached to the nasal segment, this fact is most interesting. But the facts which put at our disposal by a subsequently published memoir of Professor Owen (Memoir on the Marsupial Pouches, Mammary Glands, and Mammary Foetus of the Echidna Hystrix. Trans. Roy. Soc., 18 65 , P. 671) add some new and striking information to the stock of our previously-acquired knowledge. He therein states his I elief that young monotremal mammalians are also provided with this " internarial " tubercle whereby to liberate themselves from the egg :—"From this analogy, I imagine that the young monotremes may be provided with a horny or epidermal process or spine upo n the internasal tubercle, for tho same purpose. This temporary tubercle is obviously homologous with the hard knob on the upper mandible of chelonians and birds, by which they break their way through the harder calcareous covering of their externally-hatched embryo." Figures have been given in this memoir of the " internariar tubercle in Echidna, and in its allied genus, Ornithorhynchus ; and we confess that we consider the functional resemblance of the structures in the mammalian to those in the reptile exceedingly close. Mr. Davenport Bromley, the member for NOrth Warwickshire, under his well-known initials of W. D. 8., has written recently as follows : Just extricated from the mass of struggling humanity into which her Majesty's faithful Com mons resolves itself on the occasion of the delivery of the Queen's Speech, having partially recomposed my physical and mental organisation, and, to a cer tain extent, reconstructed my hat, I ask leave to briefly detail what I have just witnessed. I had been informed that the space at the bar of the House of Lords being limited a certain number only of members would be allowed to accompany the Speaker, and that these would be selected by lot from the names of those wishing to be present at the ceremonial. On my way to inscribe myself in this loyal band I met a tall friend, to whom I confided my errand, as king him at the same time whether he had done likewise. He smiled sardonically, and replied that he usually found that he could take his own part, and that he did not find it necessary to appeal to fortune for his opportunity on these occasions, and I confess that his broad shoulders appeared good vouchers for the truth of his assertion. But I began to doubt the value of the prize I proposed to give myself a remote chance of winning, and, instead of waiting for the " ballot," I joined a small knot of members who had taken up a position at the en trance to the Lords' corridor, where three policemen barred further progress. After waiting there a little while the additions to our party became very numer ous, and at last a vast crowd of members filled up the space behind and forced us, the early comers, into a front row facing the policemen, and filling up the archway they guarded. Retreat was now impossible otherwise, with an instinctive knowledge of what was to follow, I think I should have attempted it, and there I stood till the pioneer of the " Black Rod" made a narrow lane for his passage though our dense mass. Taking advantage of a slight confusion which accompanied this operation, I slipped round the pillar and seated myself on a bench on the other or Lords' side of the arch, and to this manoeuvre I owe the power of de scribing exactly the scene which ensued at that point. After the delay of a few minutes the pro cession arrrived. Black Rod's pioneer first, then the Mace, and then the Speaker. Up to that point, I believe, all had gone well, but then came a sud den fierce rush, caused, I presume, by the contest between those who had legitimately followed from the house, and those who, like myself, had gone forward for a start, and the procession overflowed its banks at once, and became a disorderly and outrageous mob, brutally struggling for precedence. Reckless of everything except this object, they pressed so closely on the Speaker that their feet became entangled in his robes, bringing his dignified progress to a sudden and most unseemly halt. The tableau for the moment was fine, and the scene, if it had possessed any historical or political interest, would have made a splendid addition to the frescoes around. It was the " ugly rush" spoken of by the prophet Henley. The Speaker, helplessly tethered to the ground, nevertheless bore himself as a Speaker, and, turning on his assailants, flashed back a glance of outraged dignity, of solemn and Jove-like anger, which for the time was not without its grandeur or effect, and a loud cry of " Order" arose. Meanwhile, the dignified and venerable figure of the Black Rod was seen feebly defending himself with his back to the wall against which he had been violently hustled. Lord Charles Russell halted and turned back irresolute, apparently debating whether his duties did not require him to employ the mace on the heads of the misdoers, of whom "Those behind cried 'Onward,' And those before cried ' Back !' " and some little time elapsed before the " first com moner of the realm" could extricate Otis trampled robes from their profane tread. Then the procession was resumed, and, more law being allowed this time to the Speaker, I took advantage of my position and joined its foremost ranks, and all went with comparative safety till we reached the lobby. There another stream seemed to come to join the already brimming river, and my firm belief is that numbers of people not members of the house were stationed there, and joined the procession, us I had done before. Anyhow, though the space was larger, the numbers seemed suddenly to have increased, and I found myself enclosed in a living wall and borne forward with accelerated velo city in the direction of the lefthand doorpost of the entrance to the Upper House. All steerage power was gone, and I drifted hopelessly on, and finally dashed violently against the obstruction ; my hat, acting as a buffer, broke the shock ; but I was. whirled round and carried sideways into her Ma jesty's presence, eventually settling against the bar with a thump which seemed to occasion both surprise and alarm to a very pretty woman on the other side of it. There I remained, of course, a fixture, till the Queen retired. I bad the advantage of a front place and could see her Majesty, but, obliged to exercise the whole muscular power I possessed to avoid being crushed flat by the pressure from be hind, I was not much the wiser for her Speech, which, indeed, even had I been in a position of greater physical comfort, such were the jostlings, strugglings, exclamations, imprecations, and laughter of those behind me I could not have heard a word of. I have since heard that one hon. member was thrown down, and I believe the " House" walked over him. The Chancellor of the Exchequer was so maltreated that he retired from the contest and was seen wending his solitary way back to the Lower House, mournfully moralising on the nature of the unruly assembly of which he is the leader. Now, Sir, what are the causes of this disintegra tion of manners from which the House of Commons appears to suffer as soon as it gets outside its own walls ? Is it that as representatives of the people they feel bound to emulate the worst behaviour of a hustings mob ? I incline to think that if the Lords were to make rather more considerate arrangements for our re ception, and we, on the other hand, were to pass a strict rule that not more than a certain number should accompany the Speaker on these occasions, which rule should be enforced by an adequate body of police .stationed at the outer-door of our own lobby, the scene of to-day, which was really a dis graceful one, would not re-occur. Since which time another sufferer, s igning himself "A Crushed M.P.," writes thus : — Y our correspon dent "'W. D. B." draws no exaggerated picture of the tumultuous way i n which her Majesty's faith ful Commons obeyed her summons to atte n d in the Home of L ords to hear her g ra cious me forcibly openingthe "of the new Pa r li ament. of the bull—" at I t Speech rem reminded end n goal in the football field at Eton when the o bject of the assa ul t in g party is to force the b a ll phalanx of the d e f en d ers i nto the Speaker on thi s tthhewcuigtalidetllioef d t e h n e se enemy, , occa sion representing the football. But what is the real cause of all this hustling and jostling into the presence of our Sovereign ? Sim ply that in the arrangements made by the authori ties no adequate accommodation is provided for the Lower House, though it is formally summoned to attend. About 50 only can find standing room at the bar, and we are even ousted from the gallery which is at other times open for our use. Now, her Majesty's Speech is addressed as much to us as to the Peers, and if they liave the advan tage of receiving her Majesty in their own Chamber it would not be too much to expect that the whole of the gallery as well as the bar should be left free for the use of those members of our house as wish to attend. If this be not conceded for the future I would Naval and Military Intelligence. In accordance with orders received at Chatham from the Horse Guards volunteering has been opened among the infantry corps at that garrison for the newly organised Military Store Staff Corps, now being raised according to the terms of the re cently-issued royal warrant. The qualifications for volunteers are that they shall have served at least two years as soldiers, and be men of good character, who can be recommended by their commanding officers.

In addition to the regimental pay the mem bers of the corps receive working pay varying from. is 6d to 6d per day. Immediately the announce ment was made of volunteering being opened a large number of men announced themselves desirous of joining the Military Store Staff Corps, but only a small proportion of those volunteering could be re ceived, the number being limited. The men whose names have been selected by the authorities would leave Chatham this morning for the headquarters of the corps at Woolwich. A detachment of 35 non-Commissioned officers and men of the Royal Engineers will leave headquarters, Chatham, this morning for the Royal Military Col lege, Sandhurst, to assist in the instruction of the students at that establishment. Lieut. W. S. Jemmett, 2d Battalion 15th Regi ment, and Ensign P. Edgcumbe, 3d West India Regiment, left Chatham garrison on Saturday with detachments selected from the depots of that garri son, to undergo a course of musketry instruction at Hythe. Parties of Royal Engineers also proceeded from headquarters, Chatham, to the schools of musketry at Fleetwood and Hythe, and also to Southampton. The undermentioned officers, corporals, and pri vates belonging to regiments stationed at Aldershot were on Saturday ordered to proceed by train from the North Camp station of the South-Eastern Rail way to Hythe School of Musketry: Lieut.N.R.Slator, two corporals, six privates, 31st Regiment; EnsignH.

On Thursday Mr. Spencer Clark, the coroner for North Hants, concluded an inquest at Aldershot on the body of Capt. W. Samuel Marson, of the 63d Regiment. It appeared from the evidence that on the previous Sunday night Captain Marson went to his bedroom apparently for the purpose of retiring to rest. Mrs. Marson followed a few minutes after wards, and was horrorstruck to find her husband suspended by a leather strap to a clothes-peg. She immediately summoned assistance. A servant and Capt. Hunt, of the same regiment, promptly made their appearance, and the latter wrenched the peg from its holding and loosened the strap from Capt. Marson's neck. A medical man was sent for, but life was already extinct. The surgeon's evidence went to prove that death resulted from strangula tion, and that from three to five minutes would be sufficient for a man to die in the position in which the deceased was found. Mrs. Marson and other witnesses stated several circumstances which indi cated mental derangement on the part of the de ceased officer ; and.the jury, after a short consulta tion, returned as their verdict, " that the deceased hanged himself while in a state of temporary in sanity." The appointment of commanding Royal Engineer of the Chatham district, vacant by the retirement of Col. R. C. Moody on full pay, with the hon. rank onlajor-General, has been conferred by the Duke of Cambridge on Lieut.- Col. E. W. Ward, from half-pay. A few days ago the body of a soldier named John Helzenfelt, a private in the 92d Gordon Highlanders, was found in the Basingstoke canal at Aldershot. The deceased, who was a Prussian, about 46 years old, was missed early on the morning of the 11th of January, which was dark and snowy. When found the body was considerably decomposed, and there were more marks upon it which an ordinary observer would have surmised were produced by some blunt instrument. These circumstances, and the fact that the deceased had previously informed his comrades that he had won £450 in a Hamburg lottery, at first induced a suspicion of foul play, but the medical evidence went to prove that death had been caused by drowning and not by violence. The jury returned an open v b e u r t d t i h e e t, " rew T a l s ia n t o the deceased ideneet was found oshowhow.o An Admiralty order received at Chatham directs the screw frigate Ariadne, 26, 3,214 tons, 800 horse power (unarmoured), attached to the steam reserve at that port, to be removed round to Portsmouth, where she will undergo the requisite repairs to her hull and machinerybefore being again commissioned. It had been intended to carry out the contemplated repairs at Chatham, but the only available docks at that establishment are required for commencing the new turret ship and the other ironclad ordered to be laid down. A number of shipwrights and other mechanics are employed at Chatham dockyard until 10 o'clock at night on board the ironclad frigate Bellerophon, in order that she may be out of hand and ready for an docking on Saturday next, as ordered by the Admi ralty.
