BURGH HARBO,s.—There is a Bill in the House of Commons (YestraY issued) to provide and maintka • b urg h W otlaild. 0 0 ' 4 4 1 4 , . Vbtrbi lEbition+ FRANCE. The Presse mentions the following nominations in the diplomatic corps ;—Baron de Talleyrand, now Secretary of Legation at St. Petersburgh, will be named Minister Plenipotentiary at Weymar, a post which has been suppressed since 1848 ; M. Engel hard, Consul of France and Member of the Rhenish Commission, is named Minister at Carlsruhe ; M. Menneval removes from Carlsruhe to Munich. M. de Guitant-Cenuninge has just been named Secre tary of Legation at Turin. Lient. Stack, of the English army, has had an audience of the Prince President, for the purpose of presenting to him a copy of a work on St. Helene, with several engravings executed from sketches taken by Lieut. Stack when in garrison on that island. This work bad been dedicate.d to Louis Napoleon. The Prince received tbe. author very graciously, and,' after expressing to him - fits grateful sense of the attention paid in the work to the memory of the Em-; peror, gave an order for a considerable number of copies for the public libraries and other establishments. Bocher, ex-representative, underwent an inter rogation yesterday, from M. Lasbout, Procureur of the Republic. M. Adolphe Le Roy de. Saint Arnaud, only son of the Minister of War, Who has been servingaince j 1851 in.the Ist Regiment of Hussars, has just died itaitassi4r ,— aged 19. They cause of 'death was ate inflammation of the lungs from a cold taken by this young soldier in assisting to extinguish a fire. The mixed Commission of the Var has given a great number of decisions. 620 persons compromised in the events of December have been set at liberty by the Prefect in virtue of the different decisions. The Journal du Loiret states that M. Guinard, who was condemned by the High Court of Justice of Versailles fur taking part in the insurrection of June 13, has just been pardoned by the President of the Republic. General Lamoriciere, says the Presse, has just fixed his residence at Brussels, where he has taken a house. In consequence of a dispute which arose at the last ball at the Tuileries, and which occasioned much an noyance to the company, a hostile meeting took place on Tuesday between the parties concerned—namely, M. Pierre Peyris and M. Juan Jose Vidante. The weapon chosen was the sword, and two sharp attacks took place. The first passed over without either of the combatants being hurt, but in the second, both were wounded very slightly, M. Vidante in the right hand,and M. Peyris in the right leg. The seconds then put an end to the encounter. A state. merit to the above effect has appeared in the evening journals, signed by M. Amedee de Cesena and Dr. Busscbaert, of the 6th regiment of the line, for M. Peyris, and by Colonel Gaertner, of the Spanish ser vice, and M. Edouardo Jimenes de Montalvo, for M. Vidante. M. Peyris is an officer of the French army; M. Vidante is in the Spanish service. The coinage of gold and silver pieces from the new dies engraved by M. Barre, and which bear the effigy of the President of the Republic, has commenced at the Mint on an extensive scale. The Bank of France having lately found that a great number of the pieces of sf. which reach it are hollowed and filled with lead, has been obliged to have the contents of each bag examined separately. The pieces so tampered with lose about two-thirds of their value. THE AttiVlY AND NAVY; - - (From the United - Service Gazette of this day.) HOME ENCAMPMENT.—The gum of twelve thousand pounds has been provided in the Army Estimates for an encampment upon a grand scale. Last year 1,0001. only was assigned. We presume, therefore, it is intended to brigade a large number of troops together, and we be lieve that Salisbury Plain will be the venue. WARLIKE PREPARATIONS. — The order for secrecy on this subject is creating unnecessary alarm among the large mercantile and manufacturing houses, who are led thereby to infer that there is more cause for alarm than is publicly known. Inquiries are being anxiously made in quarters likely to be well informed, as a guide for future transactions, for many parties are circum scribing their operations from apprehensions thus fool ishly created by the late Board of Admiralty. We heartily congratulate the Royal Marine Force, in the appointment by her Majesty of Major-General Owen, C. 8., Deputy Adjutant General, as an ordinary member of the Military Division of the Second Class, or Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath. The services of this officer are well deserving the honour conferred upon him; and we now hope that this branch of the service will at last be partakers in an extended manner of royal favours. TROOPS IN INDIA.—If our affairs in the Esst Indies continue tolerably quiet, two or three regiments of the line will probably return to England, without the usual relief being se nt out. By this arrangement an additional force will tie made available for service at home. TROOPS FOR FOREIGN SERVICE.—The five regiments under orders for embarkation fur foreign service have b een countermanded, and it is ex p e cted they will not p ro ceed abroad until next year. REGIMENTS FROM ABROAD.—We understand that it is not the intention of the Government to replace the regiments ordered home from Nova Scotia and Canada. The 42d Highlanders and 2d Battalion Rifle Brigade will embark for England in the course of the year. ARMY REDUCTION.—Four companies of the Canadian Rifle Regiment are to be reduced from the Ist of April next. PENSIONERS FOR CANADA.—A circular has been is sued by the War-office, calling upon able-bodied pen sioners fit to carry arms to volunteer for emigration to Canada, and to be formed into local companies for ser vice in that colony. The sum of 5001. has been esti mated to carry out the arrangement. Mr. O'Byrne, the compiler of the Naval Biography, has been appointed librarian at the Admiralty, Whitehall. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal of this day.) We have experienced more animation in our market this week for all descriptions of mining stock, the reac tion in favour of British investments being of a more de cided character, and in proportion to the neglect of the gold mines. Prices have, however, been steady, no no ticeable alteration having occurred in this respect. The wholesome effects of ;a Mining Exchange become, also, every day more perceptible, not only in steadying prices, bat approximating them more closely to the intrinsic value of the adventure. It is worthy of special remark that the mines which have suffored the greatest amount of depreciation during the late depression are those which were offered in a large number of shares (varying from 5,000 to 10,000), and thus indirectly demonstrating the soundness or the old Cornish principle of a few shares to each adventurer. We have no doubt, however, that now our market will continuo to improve for all sound and well-based concerns. _ _ In the Metal Market-Copper is in great demand, with a tendency to advance in price. Lead is more in request, and price stationary. There has not been the -.luersis thl• waestC in 131-iti•li Tin Banes has been sold at 801 and thero are still pur chasers at that figure; the vendors, however, hold on for 811.; straits have gone off at 79% 6d.

TIMES.—The scene in the House of Lords ISst night will occupy a foremost place in the memory of many a future statesman; for there, in one spot, in one brief hour, and mainly by the act of one man, occurred, net merely the transmission of power f rom one party to an; ther, but the beginning of a new cast of parties, and a new phase of politics. It was no mere passage of arms, no spontaneous conflict of temper or ambition, but a crisis in which stern necessity had marshalled the ante- 1 gonists and dictated the cause. A statesman of great dignity and merit, whom a long storm of passions and opinions has drifted to the head of a powerful faction, was there to make the best terms that he could for it. when forced into the responsible service of his country, As the representative of old opinions, surrounded by many painful recollections, watched alike by friends and by toes, and standing, as he did, on the edge of a preci pice, in the face of overwhelming difficulties, it is not to be wondered at that the principal actor in this scene scarcely filled the part which events had marked out for him. A man who chooses, or who makes his own opportunity, may easily do it even more than justice. Lord Derby has often done wonders when be need not have done anything. But last night he had no choice, for he appeared to a challenge. He had to compromise as well as he could ' between a visionary past and a practical future. He had to confess frankly and to promise truly, where there could not but be some disparity between the promise and the confession. If there were these difficulties on the threshold of his task, the task itself was not incon siderable. Lord Derby had, as we observed the other day, to re-open the session and to inaugurate a Govern ment. He had to take up or to surrender measures be fore Parliament, and to announce his intentions on deli cate points of foreign or domestic policy. He had to declare himself with regard to the opinions inseparably associated with his party and his name, and. as he chose to renounce the idea of immediate action on them ho had to ask the indulgence of his friends, and the for bearance of his opponents; for the most substantial of all his difficulties remains to be told—he represented a confessed minority in the Legislature and in the'country at large. It is not our purpose to follow Lord Derby through the numerous topics on which he felt himself obliged to declare himself. Upon several of them he declared himself with a frankness which will offend or perplex; but any ono acquainted with his cha racter and career, whether with the Whigs or under Sir Robert Peel, will know that he is one of those who in their anxiety to say what they think say more than they are ever likely to do. It was not till he had dis charged himself of a debt of affection and respect to Lord Lansdowne, and bad taken a wide survey of the present state of affairs, that he allayed the impatience of his hearers by arriving at the cardinal question of free trade. As this was the anxiety that lay most at heart, so it became the most prominent part of Lord Derby's speech, and the almost nervous excess of illustration and argument with which he prefaced what may be called his chief Ministerial announcement stood in unwise contrast to the comparative vagueness of the rest of the speech. Lord Derby repeated, illustrated, and defended the opinions he has ever advanced on this subject. On this point there is neither change, submission, nor silence. So far as theory goes, our new Premier is as decided a Protec tionist as ever be was; and, if the people of this country choose to bear with him, there will then be the anomaly of the two freeest and most self-governing nations of the world—the British people and the United States—hav ing their Executives of one opinion and their Legislatures and people of another, and that on a point of the greatest public interest. His Lordship's illustration is drawn from the new tariff of the United States, which he de scribes as Protectionist, without any reference either to the fact that it is only half as protective as that which was before it, that it is not protective enough for the interests wanting protection, that it is too protective for the citizens at large, and that the circumstances of the United States are such that it would be absolutely im possible to raise a sufficient revenue without levying considerable duties on articles of foreign ma nufacture. Lord Derby's arguments serve his purpose as ill as his illustration. His statement as to the effect of a protective duty on the price of the home-grown article is one that eludes all proof, and scarcely comes within the reach of intelligence; for who can tell what relation there is between a general increase of price and an imaginary quantity of corn shut out of the country by reason of a duty? One thing is very evident, whichever way it may tell—Lord Derby may still be a Protectionist as much as ever he was; he may be ready to risk power by his frankness; but there is one test of sincerity which is too much for him; ho does not care enough for his creed to understand it and prove it. His is evidently the devotion of the Se nate, not of the closet. He will confess himself a Protec tionist without being ono in any intelligent sense. lie can make a clean breast, but, like many another Quixote, will not make a clear head. That costs some trouble; it is sweetened by no romance, and sustained by no pride. We may be sure that for the last five years Lord Derby has dreamt, not thought about Protec tion. But to peas from Lord Derby's opinions and illustrations, and arguments, belonging, as we think, rather to dreamland than to this waking world, what are his intentions? He does not intend to propose any measure at variance with our existing financial policy during the present session. To do so, ho is aware, would involve a dissolution forthwith, and a dissolution just now, or at any other time in the course of this session, would on various accounts be a very great misfortune. Giving up the new Reform Bill, he is prepared to pro ceed with all the legal reforms and social improvements now before the Legislature. Having thus put " Protec tion" bodily out of his actual and immediate pro gramme, where does he place it? In what tense, in what mood? At what time will he bring it on, if if ever—under what circumstances, if any? On these points we will not undertake to interpret the oracle. It was misunderstood, we must say rather wilfully and clumsily, by Lord Grey ; but it may also be mistaken as wilfully and clumsily in a contrary sense by Lord Derby's own followers. Here aro some of the scattered leaves of the Sybil!--" I think this to be a question which can only be satisfac torily solved by reference to the well-understood and clearly-expressed opinion of the intelligent portion of the community." Does this mean that Lord Derby will expressly make the " reference," that he will go to the hustings on Protection, and that he only asks the for bearance of his opponents and the indulgence of hi s friends till he can do so conveniently and effectually? Or does he merely allude to that gradual reaction of opinion which years may bring forth? What he says shortly after of " the commencement of the sessioe," and " the present circumstances of the world," seems rather to circumscribe the horizon of his Lord ship's contingent " reference" to public opinion. On the other hand, such expressions as " the much humbler, but, at the same time, more useful part." which he thinks it the office of his Government to peform ; " the subjects of a controver sial and a party character " which he deprecates; " the moderate and temperate course" which he has prescribed 1 to himself; the "unnecessary party measures " which ,I he contrasts with " the great measures w hich the coun- I try has so long been expecting," or, as ho also ex presses it, " the course of sound and useful legislation," —expressions such as these are not only diffeult to be reconciled at all with any serious intention of trying to bring back Protection, but they are scarcely respectful to it. Measures of legal reform and social improvement, such as public opinion has lately so assiduously pressed on the Legislature, are described ;,by his Lordship as great, sound, useful, long expected,' pressing, and so forth, while the great cause of " Protection versus Free Trade" is set down as party, controversial, ambitious, interruptive, factious, and generally mischievous. What are we to think of all this? Lord Derby asks an armistice, and enforces his request by denounc ing ' war. Tho terms of his proposed armis tice will be thought rather indefinite, and his aversion to war will be thought at least new. We can only say, that it remains for Lord Derby and his friends to interpret his manifesto. If they go to the hustings on Protection, if they pledge themselves to re store Protection, —if they betray any symptoms of making that the watchword at the next general election; still more, if they take any actual steps in the for bidden direction, such as an attempt to restore the dif ferential duties on sugar, they will themselves have broken the truce they demand. No forbearance will then avail. They will not be allowed a single week to streng then their defences or to shift their ground. As they, ask for a truce they must take care to keep itthem selves. A few days will afford som e p roof of theirsin cerity. Lord Derby's text is rather obscure; we wait to see how it will be interpreted b y the twenty Conserva tive Members who will have to preach on it from the hustings in the course of next week. CHRONICLE. —Lord Derby spoke night with undoubted vigour and ability, although hawheadeiffividetly ill at ease, and painfully oppressed with t of his position;pre but perhaps he would havec judgglenbetter had he been yet more reserved, unless be had pared to make a more frank and str o ll; be expected munication of his policy.

Y, if the task he declined was mpraigtibi _ 1851 ; it ctiuuet be which eaid tbat theirOrill [PRICE SD. 1 of a year has made it more easy. The list of the new Mi nisters sufficiently shows that his party has gained no accession of talent; nor is the lapse of time ever fa. vourablo to those who countenance a recurrence to abandoned errors. The part of Lord Derby's speech which excited the greatest curiosity was also that in which he made the strongest pretensions to openness, decision, and candour. After all, it amounts to neither more nor less than a covert abandonment of Protection —qualified by an avowal of personal predilections in its favour, which, as was well pointed out by Earl Grey-, cannot but tend to prolong indefinitely a most mischie vous uncertainty resnecting a question which vitally affects all agricultural, commercial, and industrial transactions. The Premier thinks that revenue may fairly be raised from imported commodities, and he still maintains that there is no reason for expecting corn from the rule which applies to less necessary products. Nay, he even adopts the false principle which the menu lecturers of Now England have enforced on the Government of the United States. lie would raise revenue, by preference, from foreign produce which competes with our own—in other words, he would make the Custom-house the mere instrument of mono poly. All this is clear and intelligible enough, as a key to Lord Derby's opinions on commerce• and finance, though ho shrinks from the responsibility of giving practical effect to them. The House of Lords—carried away, perhaps, by the eloquence of so powerful a speaker—may have forgotten sor the moment that the Prime Minister's opinions are not necessarily the index to his policy. After enunciating the heresies which we have quoted, he concludes, as we have already said, by refusing to carry out his doctrines in practice. A new Government—a Government of which, for this purpose, he even exaggerates the weakness —cannot, it seems, disturb an established system. Under other eircurnstinees—in the course of next year, perhaps—it is implied that something may be done to realise his principles. ' But, for the present, Lord Derby will meet half-way those new and eager admirers who tender him their support en the well-founded as sumption that he will violate the only pledge for which his party really cares. It will be strange if his col leagues in the other House succeed equally well in sa tisfying the demands which will, in a few days, be made upon them. The professions of faith which they must offer to their constituents will necessarily, from mere want of ingenuity on their part, be more definite. The more prominent Ministers may, to a certain ex tent, wrap themselves up in official reserve— while the subordinate members of the Government may truly, or at least fairly, profess themselves ignorant of the intentions of the Cabinet. On a similar occa sion, in 1846, the in-coming Ministers pledged them selves more distinctly to the accomplishment of sanitary improvements than to any of the more disputable poli tied! achievements which they have since equally neglected. On the whole, however, it was enough to promise adherence to free-trade, which was triumphant, and to Whig principles, which might mean anything or nothing. But even if the counties are willing to sup port the new Government without inquiry, Lord John Manners will have to answer some questions at Col cheater, and Sir John Pakington may possibly experi ence a similar embarrassment at Droitwich. Mr. Disraeli may, perhaps, once more succeed in applying his com mand of language to the purpose of mystification; and Mr. Henley has already told his county, in sufficiently unmistakable terms, that Protection is finally abandoned, because it has "no faca' to go upon. But they will all be required to comment on Lord Derby's oration; and it will be strange if they all agree in the same reading. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DIAILIOND DUST. Ships and fishes may make their way when steered by the tail ; but when we attempt to guide or impel youngsters by a similar process, we only retard or turn them oat of the right line. Conquest is the child of hearts which trust themselves. Society, like shaded silk, must be viewed in all situa tions, or its colours will deceive us. Infancy is lovable, notwithstanding fretfulness and the hoopiog-cough. Men are never placed in such extremes but there is a right to guide them. Sin and punishment, like the shadow and the body, are never apart. The man who works too much must love too little. The intention of a sin betrays itself by a superfluous caution. There is in every human countenance either a history or a prophecy. Sorrow shows us truths as the night brings out stars. For children there is no leave-taking, for they ac knowledge no past, only the present, that to them is full of the future.—Eliza Cook's Journal. LONDON SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY, EXETER BALL. Last night Handet's Samson was performed by the above society in the most unexceptionable and perfect manner. The orchestra and choir were stronger than we have hitherto observed them, and consequently the music was given in splendid syle. The orchestra is so much superior to what it was last season, that the im provement must be apparent to the veriest tyro in musical matters, while each individual member of the choir must have carefully studied the music. Were it not so, it would have been impossible for them to give the music so faultlessly as they did last night. The prof e'" sional vocalists engaged were Miss Dolby and Miss Birch, M 6591 1 -. Luckey, Phillips, and Lawler. They were all in excellent voice, and sung deliciously. %Vo may espe cially notice the manner in which M r. Lawler gave the. air, "Honour and Arms." The fire and spirit with which he infused it quite took the audience .by„stortn. Tho concluding air, " Let the B r i g ht Seraphim, sung by Miss Birch, and a trumpet accompaniment by Mr. Harper, jun., was also fine , and notwithstanding the lateness of the hour narrowly escaped being encored.

Samuel Dandy was charged with having fired a pistol at tied severely wounded Mr. William Veal e , a cowl keeper in Acloia•road, St. John's•wood, with intent to murder and rob him. The prosecutor, who appeared to he about 50 years of age, and whose head was bandaged with a handkerchief, on being sworn said—Last Monday evening, at about twenty minutes past seven, I was walking alone in the Edgware-road, beyond tho fourth milestone, when .L passed a man who, to the best of my belief, is the pri soner, and he was looking into a hedge. The moment I had passed he walked after me for sixty or eighty yards, keeping close to me on the footpath. I thought he was going to speak to me, but he did not. Upon my looking round he put hie hand down in front of him, and looking again towards the hedge, he walked quickly past me and was soon out of my sight. I came over the hill towards town, and when about fifty yards beyond the third milestone I heard some one walking behind me again. At that moment the same person came close to me, and fired a pistol at nay head. The flash came across my face, and many shots struck me. I was stunned, and staggered bleeding into the road, and afterwards ran on from twenty to thirty yards, when I looked back and saw a man, who I believe was the one who had shot me, at the distance of sixty yards off. Another person coming in the direction trum London met me, and I mentioned to him that I had been snot and wounded, and said to him, '• There he is, up the road;" but he took no notice, and passed on. There is a great deal of pigeon-shooting in that neighbourhood, and the person to whom I spoke might have thought that what .1 said to him was merely a joke. I ran as far as I was able to a friend of mine, and he took me as soon as he could to a surgeon. Mr. BROUGHTON—Who communicated to the police what had happened to you ? Prosecutor—/ did, sir; I met a constable in Kilburn, and gave him all the particulars. - Mr. BROUGHTON—Do you wish to ask the prosecutor any questions? Prisoner—No, sir, All that the gentle man tins said is perfectly true. Mr. BROUGHTON—True that you fired at him? Pri soner—Yes, sir. • Sergeant Hillier, 27 S—l first heard of this from In spctor Chambers, and was sent from Bushey, where I um stationed, in quest of the prisoner. I went out in plain clothes and ou horseback, having had previously a correct description of the prisoner. In Newport Pagnell, to which place I had traced him, I saw him walking along the street. I passed him, and having gone a short distance, alighted from my horse which I left in a stable-yard. I waited till the pri soner came up. I then stopped him and asked him where he came from, and ho said " from Meltuu Mow bray." I asked him his name, and ho answered Charles Williams." I told him I was an officer, and that ho must consider himself in my custody ; and I then took him to the public-house at which my horses had been put up, when I stated to him that he was ap prehended for shooting a b ea ntlewan at Kilburn on Monday night. Ile remarked, " Oh, you must make a mistake," and he repeated that observation several times. I told him that whether it was a mistake or not I must take him back to London, and asked him if he had not lived in the neighbourhood of Newport Pagnell some time ago. lie said that he bad, and was in the service of the Rev. Mr. Toeasend. I took him to the police-station, and on searching him I found in his pocket s pistol, which I have since ascertained to be loaded with powder and shot. I also found on him one paper containing shut and percussion caps, and another paper in which was some gunpowder. Last night I weer to Mr. Vieille's, and there saw a doctor Extracting shot from his (Mr. Veale's) Ear. [Thu shot taken from prosecutor's ear was pruuuced, and corresponded in siz3 with those found un the pris,,ner'a peraon.J Thomas Lisney—l am a blacksmith, in the service of Mr. Jones Cricklewood. On Monday af,ernoon last about three o'clock, the prisoner brought to our shop a and asked n:e to Lxiscrew the barrel.

I then went to Mr. Dufour, at his office in Gray's-inn, and asked him to give „,, a little money out of the wages due to me, to pass nee into the country, but he would not give me a single farthing. I obtained from a sister, at Bushey, a half-sovereign, with which I bought the pistol, powder, &c.

He passed me, and I followed him for a abort time at a distance of about twenty yards. I passed him, and when I thought I had got quite out of his sight I put the cap on the pistol and turned out of the way. I saw the g en. Orman pass, and followed him again for a short distance, till I came within twenty yaras of the third milestone. At that time I fired a pistol, and just as I bad done so a dog passed. I then ran away about thirty yards, and saw that the g en tl eman was s tanding still. I observed some one coming up the path, upon which I made off over the hedge for fear of being detected. A person passed, and as soon as he bad done so, I made off for the 1 gentleman again, but he bad got out of sight.
