In the olden time an unsuccessful Commander was occasionally sacrificed to save a Ministry. Now we have completely changed oar tactics, and a Ministry may be, aye, and hag been sacrificed, in the vain attempt to avert popular indignation from an unfortunate Commander. We find the late Cabinet upset I—Lord ABERDEEN cashiered ! —the Duke of NEWCASTLE superseded ! and Lord JOHN RUSSELL resigned—but Lord RAGLAN still retains his command in the Crimea—still issues his directions to a staff composed of relatives, connexions, or aristocratic friends, on whom, though unsoiled by the dust and toil of the trenches, he confers promotion for "distinguished services " passing over those who have borne the bruLt of the encounter which placed a Field- Marsha' x blton within his grasp, and enabled his toadies to announce, ex cathedra, that he would take a Parliamentary grant of 50,0001. in prefe rence to the pension, which would unquestion ably be conferred on himself and his successors in the Peerage, assigning as a reason for this extra ordinary moderation (! ) that he had only received a fortune of 10,000/. from his father, the Princely Duke of BEAUFORT ! It is true that the Duke had an income of some 80,0001. or 100,0001. per annum, but, according to the system that prevailed in " the good old times when GEORGE the Third was King," that should be kept without diminution for the fortunate fi r st-born, while the juniors were left as legacies to their grateful country, to be provided for out of the taxes, as a tribute of gratitude to the man who condescended to accept the highest titles and to expend some 2,000/. per week on his personal gratification. Yes, Lord RAGLAN has hitherto escaped from offi c ial reprimands. He has even been compli mented by the Minister who threw up his situa tion in the Cabinet rather than sanction the con tinueo mismanagement in the Crimea. But there arelearki-headed personages who are not quite so il Y saMafied—who look a little more closely into the, causes of the deplorable losses and scarcely leas deplorable sufferings of our gallant troops, and Rh o cannot quite exonerato the Noble Lord. An inquiry hag been directed by an over whelming majority of the Popular branch of the then© Legislature. No doubt Kill be grievous faults of omission and. , co rnra • en established against others ; but the shortce m i„ 3 of Lordt RaGLA.N" m ust also be thoroughl y investigated, and the f ull extent of his responsibilit y ascer tained. lie cannot be screened, albeit he is th e son, the brother, the uncle, and grand-uncle of successive Dukes, and c l ose ly connected by bi r th and marriage with a numerous and influential circle of the highest aristocracy. It may be said that much of the suffering may be ascribed to the Quartermaster's and Commissa riat Departments. But was not Lord RAGLAN Commander-in-Chief? Had he no hand in the appointments of unknown and untried men to situations for which they were totally unqualified ? If these persons were really forced on him, he should have remonstrated in the first instance, I and subsequently, when their incapacity was so painfully manifested, resorted to the absolute, Power necessarily placed in his hands. He, THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 12, 1855, could, if he pleased, have broken through the red-tapist trammels. If he did not do so, under the exciting circumstances of the case, he was not competent to discharge the duties of his situation. Every ono has heard of the rough but effective remedy by which PICTON excited a leading member of the Commissariat into efficient action, and the significant manner in which his leader, the Iron Duke, listened to the complaints of the indignant official. Great suf fering was averted from a division of the British army by the zeal and energy then displayed. But unfortunately we have neither a PICTON nor a WELLINGTO:I in the Crimea. That we have many brave and gallant soldiers is certain, men deserving of the highest honours, but they do not pis independent commands, and while Lord RAGLAN is on the spot, they cannot interfere efficiently. Even the attempt would be a total contravention of the " military system." It is to that system that we owe all our mis fortunes. Never did British soldiers more bril liantly distinguish themselves than in the Crimea. They achieved the glorious victory of the Alma by sturdy and unquailing determination, and superior physical power. It was the triumph of the men, not of the generals. Much of the blood shed by which the first collision in the Crimea was so painfully distinguished might have been averted by more judicious arrangements. The cou ntry, however, will not feel dispos e d t o cri ticise too severely the matters connected with that memorable day. On the 25th of October, at the battle of Lther . naya, we saw our cava l r y a ll b u t sacr ifi ce d to the overpowering sense of duty that led them to obey but with the United States, that the manu facturers in every department must thank themselves for glutted markets, enormous sacri fices, and want of orders. Figures are not pleasant reading, but let the reader only glance at three or four facts. From 1846 our exports went en gradually increasing at the rate of from two to four millions per annum, but in 1853 they in creased in a single year by the almost fabulous amount of 20,857,000 1 . ! ! In that marvellous year the increased value of goods sent to the United States was 7,091,0001., and to Australia their increased val ue actually reached 10,221,0001. ! Surely Mr. BILIGHT and his fellow-spinners and weavers may, if they will but open their eyes, see plainly enough the reason for the present de pression of trade. It is the ebb of the spring tide of 1853. Man-traps and spring-guns ! Why should we not go on in the beneficent task of setting them Have we not prisons--most thriving, carefully tended, and economical of hospitals---in abund ance Ts any trapped or wounded by these play ful machines the worse ? Nay, on the contrary, are not all infinitely the better for their experi ence as patients' Is not their step mere free, their head more erect, and the respect of society for them and their respect for society the greater on their dismissal? Are they not thoroughly cured, and made " better as new ? " Why, then, should not the blessings of a system so approved in its results be extended to the utmost ? We are not talking of steel-traps and air guns, instruments admired and beloved of yore by country squires and the proprietors of cockney villas, sacred to the memory of sixpence worth of mignionette seed, and four and sixpence worth of eighteenpenny shrubs, developed in painted flower-pots, candle-boxes, and wash-pails—though the admiring reader may be excused if he thinks so. These things are old-fashioned and obsolete, and quite out of the pale of recommendation in refined society. The squire nowadays must rely for the protection of his grounds and his wild poultry or game, ox the stalwart arm and holly or other grained bludgeon of his keeper, and the vigilant eye and ready truncheon of the rural police—the cockney on the yelping of his house-dog and the non est inventus genius and pervading protection of the metropolitan and the horse patrol. The squire led parson of the parish, and the most orthodox of antiquated village spinsters have alike at the present 'lay the courage to denounce such instru ments as wicked and cruel. Their day must orders, although at the almost certain sacrifice of their lives. But whose remissness, whose fatal sense of security, afforded the enemy the opportunity of attack t Who issued the order, the " unfortunate misconception " whereof led to the self-immolation of these gallant men. Again we say Lord RAGLAN. It is upon his shoulders the responsibility must rest. He cannot shake off a single particle of the onus. In like manner at Inkermaa I The surprise, which so nearly proved fatal, would have been prevented if proper precautions had been taken. There was the blot, and that it was not hit may be attributed to the men, who unflinchingly with stood the attack of more than five times their own numbers, and repelled it with a loss to their assailants, iu killed and wounded, exceeding the numbers of the defenders. We do not mean of the reserve, on whom it ap pears to be the fashion to bestow all the rewards, but of those actually engaged in the fearful en counter. needs be over. No, the springes and lethal tubes we speak of are Lilliputian enactments, owing their existence to Westminster. Enactments which affix to offences the most slight a punishment in its effects the most cruel and deadly. Enactments which consign to the pestilent atmosphere, morally speak ing, of Coidbaths Prison and Newg,ate, childhood, youth, and manhood, with the ruddy flow of moral health and pride swelling in their veins, and prompt on occasion to raise the crimson to their foreheads. Those are the man-traps and spring-guns we speak of. These are in a large measure the cause why we have so many police and gaolers, so much prison accom modation and magisterial business, and so little of childlike simplicity in the children of our large cities. Incapable, apparently, of comprehensive legislation—(that legislation, we mean, which goes to the root of existing evils, and eradicates them most effectually, by planting seeds of moral recti tude in their place}—the termination of every But the losses in the field have been compara tively trifling to those in the sick bed, or at least to what passed as such. " Plague, pestilence, and famine," the boasted auxiliaries of the CZAR, were far more destructive than their sister Furies, " battle, murder, and sudden death." Many more perished from disease or want, al though within the sight of abundance, than from the adversary's swords or missiles. We must discover the real delinquent. There is a prima facie case against Lord RAGLAN. It is for him to repel the strong presumption, and transfer it, if he can, to the actual offenders. It is ridiculous to say that all these misfortune; have arisen without any person being in fault. It will be the duty of Mr. RoEnucK's Committee, when appointed, to dispel the mists and bring the light of truth to bear on the entire transaction. According to Mr. Joint BRIGHT all England is fast going to the workhouse for want of Russian corn. The sufferings of our troops in the Crimea are deplorable enough, but what is the wasting away of 54,000 soldiers compared with a nation perish ing from famine. The honourable member alas now produced his last and crushing argument for instant peace—" ISafore two years are at an end, unless Russian corn come into this country, you will shoot your own citizens in the street." Such is his prediction. " The population cannot be prevented from sinking deeper and deeper in suffering; if into suffering, then into discontent— and then at length into insubordination." These are the inevitable consequences of wheat at 701. per quarter, and wheat at 70e. per quarter is the inevitable consequence of the loss of six millions of quarters of Russian corn ; therefore, &0., Q.E.D. But this six millions of quarters—we must own we do nut understand it. It is the basis of the whole argument which terminates in citizen shooting ; and therefore we should like to know the truth of the matter. Mr. BEIGIIT quotes from the circular of an eminent friend in the corn trade ; he gives no name, but we may suppose it was his vista leading to reform and redemption seems in the legislatorial eye to be the gates of a prison. In an age, with so few exceptions, of little states men, " cabined, cribbed, confined" in spirit, this faith in prisons is, perhaps, after all, not to be wondered at. The fact is, we trust too much to members of Parliament. We are not enough our own statesmen. We don't recognise as we ought the fact that enlightened public opinion is or ought to be iu effect the Preader and the Cabinet of the country. In short, the truth must come out. We have been dwarfing morally in our aims and. the scope of our aspirations, while we hare been expaiding materially. We have bridged our valleys and straits, levelled our mountains, and girdled the earth with electric fire; but we have done but little in the way of moral elevation. We have the best of moral codes, but a feeble inspi ration, a desultory will, and a will-o'-the-wisp benevolence. We can see the immorality of break ing a pane in our neighbour's window, but are -stone blind to the evil we commit in sending our thoughtless youth to prison (there to strike up an acquaintance with felons), because they cannot expiate the irregularity of their volition in cur rent coin of tho realm. And what wo sow in brother friend who was one of . the Quaker depu. folly, we reap in anxiety, injury, and cos ,ation to th© CZAR. His friend make an esti- Tho boyish culprit thus imprisoned in defaU mato that Russia exported 6,000,000 quarters of wheat before the War ; and since Mr. BRIGHT argues as if all this quantity came to England, we must suppose his friend to state as much. But the fact is that for the eleven months end ing December sth, 1853, that is the year before the war, we imported altogether but 4,609,414 qrs. of wheat, and last year 3,353,918 qrs. This, of course, disposes of the absurd im pression which Mr. Btu IT'S speech might pro duce, as if we really had a less supply this year than usual by the enormous quantity which he mentioned. It also settles another point, namely, that the deficiency of imports is certainly not equal to the excess of our abundant harvest. The late harvest at least exceeded those of ordinary years by more than 1,245,496 qrs., and pupilled in dishonesty " comes," we have the authority of the able and enlightened Chaplain of Newgate for it, " a second time to prison, is sent to a refuge" (we don't lack benevolence ; what we want is judicious beneficence), "appren ticed, quarrels with his master, who will not let him go to plays, shoots his master, and, finally, is executed at the Old Bailey." So with the sweep who dares to slip his muzzle, to the consequent disturbance of aristocratic ears ; from his first imprisonment may be dated the commence ment of his training as an expert and daring burglar. Better far that the whip should bo entrusted to the hands of the exasperated dealer in sundries, or the distracted Sir FANCIFUL FLUTTER, than that we should have to lament over results like these ! which is the difference of imports between the Society, doubtless, must be protected as last eleven months of peace and the same period far as possible, in reason, from annoyance, of war. Indeed our imports do not seem to be but society may be protected to its loss ; lessened at all in proportion to the abundance of and as the price of security from annoyance the harvest ; and there must be other co-operating have diminished immunity from rapine and vio causes, all of which time perhaps alone will reveal. fence. To the long list of offences by enactment Indeed it is demonstrable how little the cease.- we have added, and are perpetually adding ne w tion of Russian supplies can have affected prices ones. It is only of late years ringing of door here. The last returns prior to the War, bells, shaking a mat, stealing a turnip, an egg, a which apprise us of the sources of supply penny under circumstances of great temptation by inform us that in the first ine months of 1853, a mere child, trundling an iron hoop, getting the last year of peace, we imported 773,50'7 drunk, &c., have been numbered on it, and there qrs. from Russia, and 209,000 qrs. from can be no question have been " fertile sources of Moldavia and Wallachia ; while in 1854 we re- mischief by reason of imprisonment."

ARRIVAL OF THE griRETT-STEAM SHIP DUKE OF WELLINGTON. PLYMOUTH, MONDAY MORNING. _ . The screw steam-ship Duke of Wellington arrived in Plymouth Sound at teu o'clock this morning. THE FOREIGN LEGION. Certain propositions have been made by a French Company to raise in France a legion for the service of the English Government. It appears that the company engages to supply from 10,000 25,000 men within the shortest possible time, half the number that may be agreed upon to be ready in 15 days at the utmost. In order to effect that undertaking it requires that it shall be permitted to recruit in France, or in neutral coun tries, men who have been liberitted from military service and on whom otherwise their Governments have no ,pecial claim. In that class would necessarily be com• prised those young men who in drawing for the conscrip tion have drawn lucky numbers, the Sons .f widows, the brothers of those who are engaged in the army, soldiers who have already completed their period of military servitude and who cannot, in virtue of the existing law, be again called upon for the army, in short, all who according to the recent law of emigration, are in the free enjoyment of the right to quit France for America or any other part of the world they please. It is stated that the English Government is disposed to entertain the propositions of the Company, and only awaits to enter on its execution, the assent of the French Government ; and excellent relations now existing between the two Powers, and seeing that the cause is one in which both are equally interested, no great difficulty on that point is anticipated. The company offers, moreover, to equip the men if desired. It is affirmed that the French Go vernment will not offer a ny objection in the event of a demand being made to it officially. We regret to announce the death of Lady Harriet Elliot, youngest daughter of the Earl of Minto, and sister of Lady John Rumen. Iler ladyship' died on Fri day morning, after a protracted illness, at the Hotel Meurice, in Paris. The Right Hen. Sir James Graham, But., is, we are happy to learn, much better, and should no unfavour able change, which is not anticipated, take place, will be enabled to resume his Parliamentary duties next week. On inqairy yesterday at the Admiralty the right hon. baronet was said to be going on favourably, and able to transact business several hours during the day. DEATH OF LORD FREDERICK MONTAGUL—The families of the Duke of Manchester, Viscount and Viscountess Mandeville, Lord and Lady Olivia Ossuleton, Lady Olivia Sparrow, and others of distinction, have been placed in mourning by the demise of the above young nobleman, who died at Sydney, New South Wales, on the 29th of October last. His lordship was third son of the Duke of Manchester, by his first marriage, and was born on the sth of October, 1828.1 THE HEALTH OF Ma. HUHM.—We stated on Saturday that the health of Mr. Joseph Hume had of late been so much impaired as to cause very great uneasiness to his family aad friends. We have siace learnt that the member for Montrose has not been attacked by any par ticular malady, but that he is suffering from a general break up of the constitution. Physically he is exceed ingly prostrated, but his mind is tranquil, and even, we are assured, exceedingly cheerful.—/If °riling 4dvertise.. MARRIAGE OF PRINCE DANlLO.—Prince Daniel of Montenegro was married at Cettinye, the capital village of the Principality, en the 24th of last month. After the dinner of ceremony was over Baron Mamula, the Commander inDalmatia, who;was the Prince's "witness," proposed the health of the Emperor, which was received with cheers. The bride was obliged to ride on horse back from Cattaro to Cettinye, as the snow rendered the road impassable for all kinds of vehicles. The proces sion was led by 240 Montenegrins, who fired their car bines until their store of powder was exhausted ; the flag-bearer followed, and then the bride, with her six body-guards. The Bishop and General Baron Mamula, with their suites, brought up the rear. STRENGTH OF THE AUSTRIAN AEMT.—The strength of the Austrian armies is as follows :—The Ist army, 67,600 men, with 144 guns ; the 2d, with 121,000 men, and 186 guns ; the 3d, 286 ; 000 men, with 252 guns ; the 4th 119,800 men with 54 guns. The total, without the reserves, is 594,800 men, with 536 guns. A reserve army, including borderers, of 100,000 or 150,000 men could be raised within two or three months. PARISIAN RUMOURS.—Rumours in abundance were afloat in Paris to-day (Saturday). One is that Eupa toria has been attacked and taken by the Russians ; another that a general sortie was made by the Russians against the French lines, and that Generals Canrobert and Bosquet were wounded. The official Gazetta di Verona, in its number of Feb ruary 2, says :—" Perhaps the Sardinian flag will not flutter alone in the camp of the Allies. Another Italian State may give its colours to the wind." Tom Barry, the clown, has arrived in Melbourne, to fulfil an engagement entered into with the lessee of the " A mphitheatre." Earl Forteecue has resigned the colonelcy of the First Devon Militia Regiment, which is now stationed at Exeter, but which is under orders for Newport, Mon mouthshire. The noble earl will be succeeded by his son, the Hon. J. Fortescue, the late lieutenant-colonel, An order issued by the Commissioners of Police was promulgated on Saturday, and read to the summon ing officers at the various public offices, to the effect that they are not on any account to recommend solici tors to the persons whom they have in their custody, or any body else. MINISTERS AT FOREIGN COURTS' EXTRAORDINARY EXPBNSES.—On Saturday a Parliamentary paper was issued showing that 8,0001. is required to make good the deficiency of the vote of last session for extraordi nary expenses of Foreign Ministers for the year ending the 31st Marsh next. GENERAL SIR DE LACY EVINS.—On Saturday night a meeting of the non-commissioned officers and privates who were attached to the British Auxiliary Legion, that fought under Sir De Lacy Evans in the Spanish war, assembled at the Ship Tavern, IV - ardour-street, Soho, for the purpose of expressing their admiration of the services recently rendered by the gallant general in the Crimea, and their regret that he was unable, through ill-heilth, to carry out the glorious triumphs that he had attained at Alma, Balaklava, and Inkerrean ; and to adopt an address for presentation to him. Serjeant W. A. Cuff was appointed chairman, and the proceedings were characterised by good feeling and unanimity. Mn. LAYARD AND'THE MINISTRY.—It has been stated in all the public journals that Mr. Layard, the member for Aylesbury, is to bo the Under Secretary-at-War. There is a substratum of truth in the statement ; but it is not accurate. It was intended, we believe, that Mr. Layard should receive that appointment, but, at the eleventh hour, an obstacle was interposed from a quarter unconnected with the Ministry, and wholly unexpected. It is possible that this obstacle may be removed in a few weeks, or oven earlier, and that Mr. Layard may after all receive the appointment ; but he is net yet the Under Secretary-at-War. 'We are in possession of the facts, but we are not at liberty to publish them. Suffice it to say, in general terms, that they are not uncon nected with what the hon. gentleman wrote home to the Times, whey in tee Crimea.--elforning Advertiser. The New WAR DEPARTMENT.—The two cabinet offices of Secretary of State for War and Secretary at War are now combined, and entrusted to the ex perienced direction of Lord Panmure, who holds both offices, and directs both departments, until the legis lature shall be able to mature a plan for the consolida tion of the whole of the military system. In holding those two offices it is scarcely necessary to add that Lord Pantnure will receive only the salary of one. The only other appointment decided upon is that of Mr. Frederick Peel, who removes from the Under- Secretaryship of the, Colonial to that of the War Department. To him will be entrusted the financial business of the department, which he will conduct in the office in Whitehall lately occupied by Mr. Sidney Her bert. He will prepare the estimates for Parliament, and answer in the House of Commons for the War-office, where the general business will be conducted under the able superintendence of Mr. Hawes. It is highly complimentary to Mr. Peel that his business habits have pointed him out at such a moment for selection to this important duty.—Observer. Svicrne. —On Saturday morning considerable sensa tion wee created in the neighbourhood of the Strand, in consequence of a general report that a gentleman had committed a most determined suicide at the Strand Shooting Gallery, 399, Strand. The deceased, Charles Procter, Esq., bad hue staying at Oliver's Hotel, a n d went to the gailery for the assum ed p ur p ose o f shooting at the target. He, however, in a most det erm i ne d manner blew oat his brains with a pistol. He pat the point of the barrel behind the right ear, and then fired it off. The report drew several persons to the spot, and the deceased was discovered with his head shattered in a shocking manner. The body was removed to Charing. cross Hospital. liWax, MODELS FOR TIIII PARIS EXHIBITION.--Mr, Montanari, to whom a medal was awarded in 1851 for the Mexican, &n, wax models displayed at the Great Exhibition,pas recently completed a selection which he has been solicited to transmit to the approaching exhibi tion in Paris. Prior to being sent off they have been on private view at the studio in Charles-street, Soho-square. The most attractive are the Mexican grouper, which dis play a landowner with family and servants, all mounted on mules and travelling.

In addition to these the artist has executed a dresses splend being ma de by Madame Montanan, idfr" Pe' with the whole of the Royal family , s e ate d in a drawing room, the wife of the artist. The hair of each figure is beau , Wilily arranged ; and with regard to this it may be ob served that iii these , and •11 the figures , the elaborate a process of inserting each single hair separately into the wax is adopted in lieu of employing perukes, &c. in the ordinary way. The whole collectio n exhibits the great care, patience, and artistic skill with which it has been got up. LATEST NEWS THE SIEGE OF SEBASTOPOL. VARNA, FEB. 4.

FRANCE. The Moniteur of Saturday says :—" The 10th Hussars of her Britannic Majesty, which is on its way from India, and will proceed to the seat of war, is expected at Suez on the 18th of February. This regiment has a strength of 650 men, and the same number of horses. It will be maintained at the charge of the Government of the Viceroy dur ing its passage through Egypt." The reports of a mutiny among the Zouaves in the Crimea, brought to Paris by the London jour nals, have created a very painful sensation. The story is no doubt greatly exaggerated, but it is not thought altogether without foundation. The notion of 400 men having been sent in irons to Toulon is scouted as absurd. General Canrobert would certainly not find such a number of fetters in the whole French camp. But the version generally credited at the Bourse (where the affair was much talked of) was that the Zouaves had objected to obey the orders given them to bring up English stores from Balaklava ; that a mutiny, or some thing very like one, had occurred ; and that one consequence of it was the occupation by the French of a considerable portion of the line of the English trenches, which Lord Raglan's army was not able to serve effectually. Those who know the Zouaves, and their wild determined nature, think them quite capable of revolting against an order to do any work which might not appear to them within the legitimate sphere of their duty as soldiers. The Emperor and Empress yesterday visited the Exhibition Palace. Their Majesties, who were ac companied by the Marquise de hie Markus and ___...:.~~:ar~ Colonel Fleury, aide-de-camp of the Emperor, and gount Charles de Tascher do la Pagierie, Cham berlain to the Empress, were received by the Minister of State, General Morin, Commissioner- General of the Exhibiti on , MM. de Rouville Ar doin, Rioardo, and Bouissen, Directors of the building.

The following telegraphic despatch has been re ceived here : "MmtsuLLEs, Saturday, Feb. 10.—The Carmel brings the following news from Constantinople, of Feb. 1 Bouree, ex-Consul in Syria, has left for Persia, with instructions to concert with the English Ambassa dor at Teheran to press the Shah to send troops into Asia against the Russians. " The palace of the Russian embassy at Constantinople is converted into an hospital for French troops. " Several chamberlains of the court have been dis missed for their intrigues, "M.

The Military Gazette of Vienna states that from the 25th to the 28th of January the fire opened upon Sebastopol has been very brisk, especially from the six batteries erected by Admiral Bruat, near the Bay of Chersonese, which are armed with 50 pieces of the largest calibre. The defensive barracks of the Russians, on which the fire was especially directed, had to be evacuated. Since then, the French have constructed some earth-works on the heights which overlook the cemetery, and the shells thrown from that point upon the town cause much damage to the Russians. In general, the cross fire of the batteries of Cape Chersonese and of the stanches opposite the southern fort, is daily gaining in strength. The Russians cannot any longer operate with much effect on that side with their heavy artillery, because the French works are most ad vantageously situated. A rumour is current that the General-in-Chief of the army of the Caucasus, General Muravieff, who has just arrived at Tiflis, has received positive orders to open the Transcau casian campaign as soon as possible. RUSSIA. The Post Gazette of Frankfort gives the following account of the positions of the Russian army in Poland : " The 4th division of the 2d corps of infantry, coin manded by Szepelaw, and the sth of the same corps, commanded by General Lubiazoff, are stationed on the two banks of the Upper Bug. It is therefore not true, as has been stated, that the whole of this 2d corp , , commanded by General Paniutine, has gone into Bes sarabia. It is equally false that the 7th division of in fantry has marched by Odessa on Perekop, for it is still on the Danube, nea,r Ismail, under the command of Prince Gortschakeff. At Lublin, where General Paniutine is residing, is also stationed the Ist brigade of the di vision of artillery of the corps of grenadiers. There are likewise in Poland two divisions of the let corps of in fantry, two of grenadiers, and two of the infantry of the guard. The 3d division of infantry of the guard is in Livonia, and it could very promptly be brought into Poland, as could also all the corps of the Baltic As to the cavalry, the Ist division is stationed near Wilkomiez, the 2d (light cavalry) at Chelm, the 7th (light) at Lowitz, the division of the cuirassiers of the guard at Siedlee, and that of light cavalry of the guard in Lithuania. To all these troops must be added four divisions of artillery and some battalions of riflemen. There are, moreover, about 20,000 men of the reserve in Poland ; and there are, too, a certain number of troops for the protection of the interior, consisting of Cossacks of the guard and Circassians." AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Feb. B.—Advices from Vienna state that, according to intelligence received there, the head-quarters of Prince Gortschakoff are to be re moved from Kischeneff to Odessa. The Russian division posted near Eupatoria has been forced to retire from the neighbourhood for want of water. Since the frosty weather has set in there has been great want of water at Perekop, but there are abundant supplies of provisions. The Austrian Correspondence has the following despatches : " TRIESTE, Feb. I.—According to intelligence from the Crimea, the horse railway was already in course of construction. The Journal de Constantinople hopes that the political and commercial relations of the Perte with Greece will soon be re-established." " CORFU, Feb. 9.—Provisions from Austria are ad mitted quarantine free, the cholera having disappeared." PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Feb. 9.—Vienna and other journals have stated that the Countess as well as Count Esterhazy has arrived at that place, and thence argue that the latter is not likely to return. Now, in the first place, the Countess Esterhazy has not moved from Berlin, unless perchance she have a " double ;" and, secondly, she expects the Count back hero in two or three days, with her young son, who, and not the Countess, accompanied his father to Vienna. It is not pretended to know what is desired at Vienna as regards Count Ester hazy's mission ; but there can be no doubt that a diplomatist of greater laissez faire and less vigilant firmness 'would .be more acceptable at this place, where they expect well-stored honeycombs and return empty vinegar cruets. The Kreutz Zeitung states, under the head of " Warsaw," that the Russian troops concentrated opposite to Cracow have been ordered to withdraw into the interior of Poland, in order to deprive Austria of an excuse for pleading at Frankfort the danger of her frontier being menaced—an artful stratagem ! A letter from Frankfort of the Bth says : "It appears certain that Austria will send another corps d'armee to augment the troops under General Coronini now in the Danubian principalities. Orders have been already sent off from Vienna on the subject to Hungary, whence that body will be directed on Molda via. A considerable body of troops will be placed along the Lower Danube, and can, should the war break out between Austria and Russia, be directed on Odessa, and even to the Crimea. As Prince Gortschakoff's forces are much reduced at present by the reinforcements which he has successively sent to the Crimea, this movement of Austria is calculated to cause much embarrass ment to the Russian generals in their strategical plans." A letter from Stettin, of the 22d ult., says : " The bill for the admission on conditions of reci procity of foreign vessels in the coasting trade of Prussia, which had already been adopted by the Second Chamber, has just been voted by a large majority in the Upper Chamber." This vete of the Prussian Chambers appears to be the conse quence of the act of the 23d March, 1854, by which England opened her coasting trade to all foreign flags. At a meeting held en Saturday of the creditors of Messrs. Swauwick and Johnson, of Manchester, calico printers, the liabilities of the firea were shown to amount to 27,0001., against assets valued at 26,0001. It was resolved that they should wind-up under inspection, and 15s. in the pound is ultimately looked for. DEATH OF TIER REV. G. FLETCHER, AGED 108.—This extraordinary man, who was born on Feb. 2, 1747, at Clarbrouf, in Nottinghamshire, died on the 2d instant. From six years of age he had been brought up in the tenets of Wesleyism, and remained a member of that body till his death. He spent 83 years of his life it active pursuits. He was 21 years a farmer, 26 years he served his Sovereign in the army—was at the battle of Bunker's-hill, and followed Abercrombie into Egypt, where he gained the esteem and respect of his officers. He then entered the West India Dock Company's ser vice, where he continued 36 years, when he retired on their bounty, still preserving up to within six months o his decease that astonishing activity of mind an, body for which he was so remarkable, often travellin great distances by rail, and pursuing his holy calling. preaching two or three times a day, regardless of pe r sonal inconvenience, for the objects of charity and be nevolence. ladies of the Pe,la ce , the Countess de RaYneTali (te.
