THE WEATHER AND THE PARRS. —The weather still continues intensely cold ; the thermometer at the Royal Humane Society's Receiving-house in Hyde-park during Sunday night stood at 24 deg., at 9 o'clock y es t er d ay morning it rose to 30 d eg ., an d at noon it registered 32 deg., even in the sun. In the evening the mercury fell to 29 deg. The barometer yesterday stood at 29'44, being just 13-100ths less than on the preceding day. The wind was during the greater portion of the day north east. The various footpaths were densely crowded. Several matched took place between the soldiers of the Life Guards and the Foot Guards, which excited con siderable interest.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. We are requested to state that all the commis missioned appointments; civil and military, in the " Land Transport Corps" now forming for the Crimea are filled up. Direct appointments to the non-commissioned ranks of superintendent and sub-superintsndent can only be given to men who are, or have beenenon-commissioned officers in the army, or who hold a corresponding rank in the police forces of Great Britain and Ireland. All other candidates must, in the first instance, enlist as second-class drivers. As the applications for employment in this corps are very numerous, it is requested that this notice may be considered as an answer to all persons whose applications to Sir Richard Mayne and to the Director- General of Transport have remained unanswered. A letter from Ba'aklava, dated the 30th of January, says vessels in harbour are the Sanspareil, Diamond, Wasp, Vesuvius, Malacca, Sphinx, Caradoc, and Fu rious. " Report says that Acting-Surgeon Elliott will fill the vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Forster, and that Dr. Cotton will g et the appointment of Acting-Surgeon to the M ar i ne Brigade. "Admiral Boxer is hourly expected. When the Sane pared leaves for England the Admiral will hoist his flag on board the Diamond." The James Watt, 91, Captain Elliot, received her main and fore-masts yesterday in the basin at Ports mouth. A party of shipwrights were engaged on Sun day in preparing them for her. It is much to be regret ted that the machinery of this fine ship _should have been so defective, causing so niuch delay and expense in again preparing her for sea. She received her new air pump on Saturday Irons the contractors. She is nearly 100 men short of her complement. Tee Nankin arrived at Shithead yesterday morning and saluted the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane. K.C.B. The hired screw steam-ship Crcesus, Capt. Vine Hall, which left Plymouth on Saturday, for Malta, made an extraordinary run from Portsmouth. She cast off from the Dockyard jetty on Saturday at 3 p.m., was off Cowes at 3.40, and loosed foretopsail, foresail, and topgallant sail, the wind blowing bard from the eastward ; at 4.45 she passed the Needles rocks, and at 6 was abreast of St. Alban's ; Portland was passed at 7, and the Start Light was made at 9.30, bearing W.N.W.; at 10.15 this light bore N.N.W., distant six miles ; at 11 she made the Eddystone Light, bearing W. by N.; and at 11.30 she rounded to the Eddystone bearing W. by S., distant five or six miles. In consequence of the thickness of the weather and the crowded state of the harbour, she did not bear away for the Sound until 5 a.i.u. The Crcesus, piloted by Mr. Richards, came to an anchor at 7 o'clock to windward of 300 sail of merchantmen, in a position most convenient for the reception of the troops. This fine ship is only 15 feet shorter than the Himalaya. She now draws 20 feet 6 inches forward and 19 feet 10 inches aft,; but, as her stores and water are stored near the bows, she will soon get into her proper sailing trim. The distance run from Portsmouth to the Eddystone is about 127 miles, and the time occupied was about eight hours. Her Majesty's screw steam-ship Himalaya, Commander Priest, went into the river, at Southampton, yesterday. She sails for Portsmouth to embark horses, &c., this day. The padd!e-wheel transport steam-ship Orinoco, Capt. Wilson, arrived at SouVaampton, from Portsmouth, yes terday afternoon. She will bo once got ready for further use in the transport service. The screw steamer Glasgow, Captain Cumming, from New York, a►rived in the Clyde on Saturday last, after a tedious passage, during which she had to p•tt into the Shannon to replenish her coal. She brings 77 passengers and a large cargo. The Glasgow, like her consort, the I New York (now in the East), has been engaged by the French Government for the conveyance of troops and ..stores to the Crimea, and she will be instantly unloaded, overhauled, and despatched to Marseilles. The Glasgow is a magnificent roomy ship of between 2,000 and 3,000 tons burden, and can be fitted to carry 1,800 men with ease. Now that this ship is temporarily withdrawn there is no direct steam communication between the Clyde and New York. The hired steam transport Telegraph arrived at Ports mouth en Sunday afternoon from Liverpool in 48 hours. She will immediately fill up with cargo for the seat of war, consisting of victualling and other stores, packages for officers and men, drivers of the Commissariat, &c. This is now the only steamer at Portsmouth loading for the B;sok Sea. Lieutenants Walter Strickiand and St. George C. D'A, Irvine have been appointed to the Centaur. Lieutenant Thomas Brandreth, from the Neptune, to be Flag-Lieutenant to the St. Vincent guard•ship. Paymaster Alfred Wood, from the Formidable, guard. ship of ordinary at Sheerness, to the Phoenix. Cleric in Charge Oetavius Spong, from the Sampson, to the Oberon. Clerk Joseph Singleton to the Formidable, vice Wood. Lieutenant J. B. Scott, of the Neptune, has been ap pointed First Lieutenant of the Pembroke. Yesterday upwards of 5,000 pairs of blankets ware shipped from the Tower stores, in bales of 50, on board transports at Deptford, for the hospital'at Scutari, for the use of the sick and wounded. Royal Marine detachments (or other Royal Marine Light Infantry) are ordered to embark as follows for service in tae fleet :—Captain Hunt, Second Lieutenant Stark, 2 sergeants, 2 corporals, 1 fifer, and 92 privates, to embark in her Majesty's ship Pembroke, 60, Captain Seymour, at Portsmouth ; Captain Symonds, Second Lieut. Price, 2 sergeants, 2 corporals, 1 bugler, and 92 privates, to embark in her Majesty's ship Hastings, 60, Capt. Clan, at Portsmouth, this day. One subaltern, 1 fifer, and 12 privates of the divisional, and 1 sergeant, 1 corporal, and 13 gunners of the artillery companies, to embark in her Majesty's ship Centaur, 6, paddle-frigate, Captain Clifford, at Portsmouth ; 1 colour-sergeant, 1 corporal, and 12 privates, to embark in her Majesty's steamer Himalaya, at Southampton. Yesterday a court-martial was assembled on board her Majesty's ship Victory, in Portsmouth harbour, pre sided over by Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, K.C.8., of her Majesty's ship Excellent, to try Mr. Richard H. Alvin, Acting Assistant-Engineer of her Majesty's ship James Watt, upon two charges—first, for having dis obeyed the orders of Mr. John Boswell, the Chief En gineer, by absenting himself from the ship without leave; second, for having on the 18th of January disobeyed the orders of Lieutenant George Parker, by absenting him-. self from the hulk of the James Watt, without leave. The court, in consideration of the prisoner's previous good conduct, adjudged him to be severely reprimanded, and to forfeit promotion for one year. The Galway papers announce the death, after a short illness, of Captain Richardson, R.N., Inspecting Com mander of Coastguards. The Provisional Battalion in Limerick comprises the 9th, 17th, 39th, and 89th depots, under Colonel Stack, and musters 1,000 rank and file. AUSTRALIA. MELBOURNE, Nov. 23, 18 5 4 - The Norna, carrying the overland mail, is dua from Sydney to-day, and after her arrival will remain only 24 hours. I therefore commence my letter, leaving for• a postscript anything worth communicating that may occur during the short period of the Norna's detention here. The quarterly refurna of the banks, having their chief offices or branches here, have just been published up to the 30th of September. These returns, as compared with the corresponding returns for the third quarter of 1853, show the banks to be in a flourishing condition, and yet'they exhibit some indications of the pressure upon trade which I have noticed in previous communi cations. There is another bank in operation here—namely, the Oriental Bank Corporation ; but it is only a bank of discount and deposit, and not one of issue. This seems to have been taken as an excuse for not ditcclosing its liabilities and assets. This circumstance can hardly be deemed a satisfactory reason for the omission, and the Argun—always well-informed and sound in its views upon commercial and financial subjects—remarks that "It is by such publication alone that the bank in ques tion can deserve and obtain the confidence of the pub lic."

Thi s s t a t ement, together with the larg e di v id en d s w hi c h th e y h ave hitherto been able to keep up, i n o ne c as e a mou n ti ng t o 40 per century per annum, w ill no d ou bt sa ti s fy the Engli s h share holders, Their coin and bullion accounts for the two periods stood thus : Septembcr, 1853 September, 1854 This, I think, ma y b e eas ily ex pl a i ne d. I n the early part of 1853 go ld was an ar ti c l e o f commercial specu lation rath er th an o f mere exc h ange ; it s value was at first but littl e k nown . Th e b an k s an d mercantile houses purchased at prices comm e ncing at less than 60 s . per wince, remaining long. at about 715., and only s l owly advancing to its intrinsic value as its fineness and net return because known. To effect these purchases large imam in coin were imported. Specie, consequently, ac cumulated in the banks, and it soon became profitable to export coin, as the exchanges gradually recovered from 8 per cent, discount to par, and then gradually rose to 5 per cent. premium. This decrease of specie is a natural consequence of the excessive importation of 1853, and there can be no doubt that if iron houses, sawn timber, boots and shoes, and other articles could be moved from oae country to another as easily as coin, we should have a diminution of boots and shoes, dec., in the hands of the dealer,. I regard the decrease of coin as salutary, and not as a just cause of alarm. A. more serious feature in the abstract is the great in crease in the debts due to the banks, chiefly in the s h ape of mercantile bill s di scoun t e d . I n September, 1853, i t was 2,772,6501. ; in S e pt em b er , 1854, the amount had increased to 6,791,3331., an enormous amount, .cer tainly, in proportion to o ar p o p u l a tion of about 250 ,000. The banks, however, conduct their affairs prudently, and, by requiring additional endorses, generally manage to•avoid bad debts, except new banks or new branches, which are always liable to be favoured with the patron. age of shaky accounts. It is not to be expected that the large profits of the banks will be kept up. The value of gold is now well known. We have within the colony accurate means of assaying. The banks can no longer take advantage of the general i gnorance an d consequen t timidity wich prevailed. One merchant, who had bought largely at 61s. Bd. and 62e. 6d., told me that, on making a further purchase at 655., he became so nervous as to be deprived of sleep for many nights ; yet a considerable portion of his gold sold for 41. per ounce, and some as high as 41. 2s. 6d., being nearly pure. The days of almost fabu lous profits are over. The price keeps steady at 31.185. (exchange being at a premium), so that the profit is l a mere- exchange, th e p urc h ase a n d -U se - transmission I a mere rernit..-.... I and au It will continue, and ought to continue. A. few Union Bank shares sold in the market the other day as high as'ool. the 251. 'share. Now, investments here ought to pay aornething like 10 per cent. at the least. To do this on the price paid the dividend should be 19 1-sth per cent. ; but th,e mean dividend of all the banks this year is under 18 percent., and this rate can. not be kept up. I should say the Union Bank is the most flourishing, and is likely to continue so. It has a large number of good non -mercantile customers, who keep good balances, and who do not require documents. I have before alluded to the number of small failures of late, and the causes of them, and I expressed an opinion that the mercantile houses of note were quite safe. I have since made considerable inquiry on the subject in channels worthy of reliance, and I have no reason to vary my previous statement. The aggregate of failures, is however, large, but then all our aegregates are large. Dating from the culminating point of prices, and the first failure thereafter, I am assured that the total to the present time amounts to 1 , 0 00,000/., but, from the classes who have been compelled to yield to here they w ill the pressure of the times, I do not theiscnkeun purchases of .eimilar anti.aage m o will fall on the English shippedmerchans.Nsr goods on con i This a they a nt kinds hat of l havelabour paid withi n th e last ; s s i u g ff n e n i r e i s wherent,goodsmerelym a they d have besc)onans e Melbournebny they blindly l h a v.Re seers have n many cases done in fraud of th e i r own customers, and we cannot much deplore their burnt fi ngers. The cry of " the unemployed" has been almost hushed. I can in some f ew cases mixed up with a small dose of r emuneration fory . capital. I paid a jobbing carpenter 20 s . a day lam paying a pair of hewers of wood 12s. a d ay each f or cut ting ten state day ins fora few some cases w up firewood into convenient billets ; I have recently paid a carter for taking a single horse cartload of miscel laneous purchases a distance of three and a half miles 20s. This is an honest fair-dealing man whom I always employ ; another, for the single job, would have charged me 25e. The charge for a cab (2 horses) the same dis tance varies from 255. to 40e. (generally 305.), according to the competition on the stand., We Pay A laundress Bs. a day and her food, but washing given out is Bs. per dozen. The drawers of water are as well paid as the hewers of wood. These are all I can state from my own payments , • but I know that common labourers get 10s. a day, and the po li ce get 12s. If the unemployed were anything more than a very insignificant proportion, these rates could not be maintained. It should bo observed, however, that there always has been a considerable number of men either without any serviceable qualifications, or for whose particular kind of work there is no demand--." Gents" from the counters of Regent-street, for instance, and soft-handed clerks from the large commercial towns. They are far less able to tnrn their hands to souse profitable account than gentlemen from our public schools and universi ties, whose palms have been prepared for the pick and spade by handling an oar on the once "Silver Thames." 1 think, also, there must be some press ure among pro- fessional men of all kinds. Surgeons, doctors, barristers, and attorneys in England hear of the large professional incomes realised here. These are not so large or so 1 numerous as they were, but still there are, no doubt, men of all professwas who are .making larg e gains ; but they are men known and established, and of rePetation commensurate with their skill and experience. On the other hand, we have professional men in very straitened circumstances, and in walks of life very repu gnant to their previous habits. I have heard of a barrister of eighteen years' standing acting as the clerk Qf another barrister, and subsisting, or trying to subsist, on the usual clerks' fees. I know of a physician who is act ing as clerk to a brace of barristers who have contiguous abiding places. Some of the large solicitors' fi rm , are making many thousands a year. I have heard of others who are in insolvent circumstances. This inequality of condition is net confined to the professions, but e x . tends to all occupations, though least of all to mechanics and labourers, who must always, in all countries, b e more on an equality. Rotel Bentley, the landlord of the Eureka ~ at Ballarat, who was accus e d o f the murder of one Scobie, has been tried and convicted of ,maaslaughter,:and sentenced to three years' hard labour on the roads. The lawyers say the verdict is perfectly correct, and the sentence a proper one. The rioters, who burnt down Bentley' s inn, after the magistrate had dismissed the case against Bentley, telling him that there was not a tittle of evidence against him, have also been tried and convicted. Th ey were recommended to mercy on account of the supposed laxity on the part of the public authorities. The Jury asoom . palsied their verdict with this "rider," as they c a ll ed it : "The jury feel that in returning a verdict of guilty against the prisoners for the riot at Ballarat, they would not have had that painful duty to perform if those in trusted with the conduct of the Government affairs at Ballarat had done theirs properly." The Judge said, he could no t rece i ve t hi s "rider," but asked for a copy. It is believed that it influenced his sentence, for, a s an adequate punishment for this enormous outrage, the three prisoners were sentenced respectively to three, four, and six months' imprisonment, without hard labour. Generally speaking, the judges here are severe in their sentences, but this certainly appears to err the other way. His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor has given the Royal assent to the Convicts Prevention Bill. I have in a forme r letter given a history of this bill, and its bearing on the policy pursued in Van Diemen's Land. I think it is pretty certain that the bill will be disallowed,, and the governor will receive a peremptory order to proclaim such disallowances. I think a better bill might be devised in the shape of a very stringent Vagrant Act which would generally reach the bad subjects among the convict class, whereas the present measure catchee only the best, or rather the least ill-disposed. Sir Charles Hotharn is proceeding to institute erten , sive inquiries into the details of the administration of every branch-of the Government. No one doubts that there has been laxity and abuse of every kind in- every quarter, and, wiieri that is the case, public opinion very often takes an exaggerated view of the evil. There has, no doubt, been a good deal of what is called "jobbing ;" first opinion, and then rumours, have coa - Verted this into something far worse. The ease of one magistrate charged with accepting a bribe from a person desirous of obtaining a publichouse license is now under investi gation. He must be a clumsy practitioner, for, gene rally, the " squaring," as it is called, is so managed as to allude full exposure. The method - adopted by Sir C. Hotharn for the prose cution of these inquiries is to issue a commission to in quire and report, similar to commissions of a like nature issued in England. Thus, we have had a Finance Com mission, and have now a Police Commission, a Gold field Commission, a Squatting Commission, and others are talked of. These commissions are unpaid. In most cases they are composei of Government officers in whom the public have confidence, with one person wholly in dependent of the Government. The officers of the Go vernment, especially those who are connected with the department suspected of laxity or jobbery, do not hall like these boards, and in seine cases very palpable at tempts are made to thwart them. They have, however, the support of the head of the executive, who seems dis posed to give them all the powers they require, and the public will aid theca because it is perceived...that they may be instruments of good. This bas been a very remarkable season ; with the ex ception of a few hot days now and then we have really had no summer in our sense of the word. The weather, indeed, has been absolutely cold. At this season of the year the country around Melbourne is generally brown ; this year, however, the fields have not yet lost their ver dant appearance. For three days past we have had very heavy showers, and a good deal of rain has fallen. It commenced with a thunderstorm on Monday night. This rain will be favourable to the country. Besides improving the vegetables in the market gardens and in creasing the "feed" around Melbourne, it will have benefitted the diggers and increase the quantity of gold by affording a supply-of water, of late much wanted. There was a general impression two years ago that the attractions of the gold-fields would deprive the wool growers of labour to an extent to cause a very consider. able decrease in the production of wool. This fear has not been realised, for the quantity exported bas in creased from 21,765,1041 b. in 1853, to 22,598,688 in 1354. I think it is not unlikely, however, that wool is now shipped in not quite such clean condition, and not generally so well prepared for exportation as it used to be. The Van Diemen's Land papers announce that gold has been found in that ceiony, on the east coast, in suf ficient quantities to render its working remunerative. Gold was found at Fingal in 1852, and it was worked for some months by several parties of four and six. Early in 1853 a large amount was subscribed (10,000!.) as a reward for the successful discoverer of an available gold field. That reward has not hitherto been earned or even claimed, and the present report is too uncertain to de servo reliance without confirmation. Nov. 24. The estimates were last night laid before the Legisla tive Council. They are of the most astounding charac ter. A sanguine estimate of revenue for 1E55 places it at 3,015,6831. The expenditure is coolly put down at 4,801,292/. ; the deficiency being 1,785,6091. No one here doubts that this is the result of the most reckless extravagance, the most palpable inefficiency, and no small amount of corruption in the local executive. I need hardly describe the effects of this statement of our financial condition on the public mind. It seemed to take people's breath away. The Colonial Secretary promises to expound the views of the Government on Thursday next (30th of November), and the considera tion of his budget will then be postponed till the 7th of December, to give hon, members time to recover from the shock. Nov. The Norna came in f rom S y d ney yesterday, and 2s. will sail at about 2 p.m. today. The price of gold has been utationary for some time at 31. 165., upon which the banks, which sell their draughts on London at 5 per cent. preminm must get a profit. They keep the trade in their own hands by only buying bills at a discount. THE TURKISH EXPEDITION TO THE CRIMEA. VARNA, Jan. 28. Thanks to English transport steamers,_and thanks to the activity of the employes, mostly foreigners, who have been ch osen f or th e pur pose, the embar kation of the Turkish troops for the Crimea is progressing without interruption. The tliree places chosen for the embarkation are Varna, Italtschik, and Bourgas, the last exclusively for cavalry, the two former promiscuously. Varna is the centre of the embarkation, but it was a good plan to choose three places, instead of one for the purpo&e, and thus to avoid the confusion naturally arising from too great a crowding of troops, provisions, and materials of war . Th e troops intended for the Crimea arrive by detachments, so that the pressure is net much felt, only at Bourgas, where it is intended to concentrate the whole cavalry, with little exception, and to erect a stage, so that, if possible, the horses may walk on board the steamers. About one-half of the troops have already gone, and at the rate the embarkation is progressing, it is hoped that in a fortnight more the rest will have followed. On good days three battalions have been embarked at Varna, and as many at Baltechik. The steamers employed for the purpose are cleared forctard, so that most of them can take from 1,300 to 1,500 men on board. The Turks give little trouble, owing to their sedentary habits and their soberness. They dispense almost with cooking, and live on their biscuits ; even the officers content them selves with a piece of cooked meat or a roast fowl, which they take with them. It is rather strange that these latter are not, any more than the men, accommodated with cabins ; but the officers of the steamers complain of their dirty habits, which make this measure neoessary. The men, when they embark, take a month's provi sions with them, so as to be on their arrival at least in dependent of the commissariat. But the illusions about abundance of provisions in the Crimea—at any rate, in the small part occupied by the Allies, have been too dearly paid for already not to make Omer Pasha, who is by nature rather prudent, anxious about the commissariat department. Accordingly, stores have been erected, both at Baltscbik and at Yarns, to which large quantities of wheat, flour, butter, " kaurma" (a kind of preserved meat), and other articles of provisions are sent from all parts. - The feeding of so large an army for more than 18 months has, of course, sensibly affected Bulgaria, and the drain of provisions occasioned by the presence of the allied forces during several months, and the occa sional supplies still sent to the Crimea, pr;nc;pally for the French army, have all tended to exhaust the country, which, being comparatively well -populated, requires a not inconsiderable amount for its own consumption. Moreover, a state of war , t h e continual marching of troops, the excesses inevitably connected with it, and the excitement and insecurity attending it are not ex actly calculated to developo the productive powers of the country, especially as since the " Bono Inglis" have gone paper receipts have replaced the glittering stove reigns. Bui s in spite of all this, the country behind is still well able to feed the whole army, without having need of help from elsewhere. A great part of the troops have fur-lined coats, but they were not all provided with them. The army will consist of three infantry and one cavalry division. The first infantry division, which is already in the C r im ea , i s comman d e d by Mel Led Pasha (Ferik), and Teofik and Bebram (General Cannon) Pashas as Brigadiers. The second, which is likewise partly gone, will be under Ferik Ismail Pasha, not to be mistaken for Mushir Ismail Pasha, who distinguished himself at Kalafat, and who remains as commander in Bulgaria. Sely Pasha is spoken of as commander of the third division, and Halim Pasha as commander of the cavalry. Besides the Turkish detachments which are daily em barked, there are still some remains of the allied armies at Varna. ; but even these are beginning to disappear. Three days ago the Simla took the last lot of bat horses belonging to the English army to the Crimea, and soon the last traces of that army will have vanished from Varna. The French are, as yet, in greater number, but they, too, are daily embarking for the Crimea to join their regiments. THE AULITIA. The following gentlemen have had their commissions signed :—Mr. A. Cockburn, late a Captain in the 11th Foot to be Major in the North Durham Regiment of Militia, vice Baker, who has resigned. Mr. H. L. Hood, to be a Lieutenant, vice Nich , Ason, who has re signed. Mr. C. Wilkinson, to be a Lieutenant, vice Featherstonhaugli, who has been promoted, and Mr. J. Bowling to be an Ensign, each commission to bear date the Ist of February. Mr. William Hartshorn, late a Captain in the 24th Foot, has been appointed ♦djntant of the 6th Regiment of Royal Lancashire Militia. Two new regiments of militia are to be raised in Lan cashire, to be called the 6th and 7th Royal Lancashire Militia ; the first of which, commanded by Colonel the Hon. E. B. Wilbraham, is to be raised in Salford, and the other is to be raised in Manchester. Colonel Wilbra ham and Adjutant and Captain Hartshorn have already advertised for volunteers, offering a bounty of 61. for men between 18 and 35 ; but men who have served in the army, if well recommended, are to be received up to 45 years of age. The standard of height is 5 ft. 4 in., and the corps are to be each 1,000 strong. The martial spirit that pervades both officers and men of the two Antrim regiments has latterly manifested itself in a meet creditable incident. Major Verner, hav ing received an order from the Marquis of Donegal, colonel, to return the names of all willing to ♦elunteer into active service, paraded the Rifles in the Barrack square, and, on hearing the nature of the order, the offi cers unanimously expressed their willingness to serve her Majesty whenever and wherever their services would be required. This noble conduct was responded to on the part of the men by a general cheer, and all expressed their desire to follow wherever their officers would lead. THE nicisnucT.—The Lord Chancellor of Ireland has appointed M. g. Murphy, of Benefield, Ballinasloe, Esq., to the commission of the peace for the county of Roscommon. THE CONDUCT OF TRH ITA.R.-..-DER/11r, Saturday. A very crowded meeting, attended principally by working men, was held last night, is the To wn Hall, "to take into consideration the present deplorable an d wretched condition of ourarmy in the Crimea, to canvass the cause thereof, and , to determine such means, as to the meet ing may seem good, to avert the danger s b esett i ng us. " Resolutions were passed unanimously, condemning the conduct of the war, and a memorial to the Howse of Commons was adopted, praying the house "to carry on the war with vigour," attributing the losses and suffer ings of our brave soldiers in the East to "culpable mis management and incapacity." FATAL ACCIDENT ON THH GREAT NORTHERN RAIL WAY. —On Friday, a fatal accideat occurred on the Great Northern Railway, at a level crossing a little north of Carlton station, between Newcastle and Tuxford, to a youth whose name has not been ascertained, but who appeared to be about nine or ten years of age, and of respectable connections. It appears the boy way about to cross the line when he perceived a coal train approach ing from the north. He waited until this had passed, and was in the act of stepping on the down line just at the moment the first-class express from Loudon to Edinburgh came up at full speed. The buffer of the ex press engine struck the youth with great force, and he was killed on the spot. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, Fin. 12. NEW COLUMN.

RSTON. Henry Temple, Viscount Palmerston, our new Pre mier, was born the 20th October, 1784. Ile was 18 years of age when he succeeded to the title. He waa educated at Cambridge, and in 1806, about the tires of Mr. Pitt's death, entered Parliament. He ranged him self on the Minieterial side of the house, and supported the Government by his vote and influence. Is the next Parliament lie wan returned for Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Having joined the Portland Administration in 1807, lie was made °tie of the Lords of the Ad miralty. Dr 1809, during the Administration of the Duke of Portland, he obtained the office of Secretary at-War, in the room of Lord Granville Lawson Gower ; and in 1311, vacating his seat for Newport, was elected for the University of Cambridge. He contiseued to fill the office of Secretary-at-War for nineteen yonees succes sively —namely, from October, 1809, to May, 1828— when he gave place to Sir Henry Hardinge, in conse quence of t h e b reaking up of Wellington's Cabinet. A on:i time prior to 1825 he was fired at and slightly wow - lased by a man, without his having given the least iirovoca. - ton ; but on inquiry the roan was proved to be clearly 11:Aill10. The office which Lord Palmerston filled for so long . a period, extending through the successive Ad innesfeations of Peaseval, Liverpool, Canning-, Gode rich, and Wellington, is One of acknowledged im portance and of no inceneiderable difficulty - and the beet proof of his lordship's corn: petency for discharging its functions is to be found in his continuing to retain it undisturbed amid the conflict of parties and the perpetual changes which in other offices were continually taking plane. It is pretty evi dent that Lo r d P a l mers t on f or muc h o f th is time must have avowed Tory politics and given his support to them. But it is equally plain that he latterly imbibed the more liberal principles of Mr; Canning ; and after that lamented stateman's death he discovered an evident leaning towards the enlightened policy of Lord Godorick and Mr. Husliisson. Though, like the latter, he accepted the office of Secretary-at-War in the Wellington Minis try, he took Mr. Huskisson's part in the fracas occa sioned by that gentleman's vote on the East Retford. queetwe, and resigned his place on account of what he considered to be the arbitrary conduct of "the Duke" on that occasion. He aided the Peel and Wellington Cabinet in the removal of the Catholio disabilities, a measure of which he was ono of the most powerful adve'- advocates. %Vhen the first Reform Bill was introduced to the House of Commons, in 1831, by Lord J. Russel!„ Lord Palmer s t on appeared ainona his supporters, and he continued to give that measure his powerful suppor t. until the efforts of its promoters were finally crowned with success. This line of action coot him his seat for the University of Cambridge, which he had held sinen 1811. He was, however, returned in 1831 for Blotch-- iugley. In 1832 he sat for South Hants, but was defeated at the general election in 1834. In 1835 he was elected for Tiverton, which ho continues to represent. He held the seals of the Foreign Secre taryship from 1830 until the dissolution of the Whig Ceb:net in November, 1834. In the April following he resumed that office, and resigned it again in 1841. With the return of the Whigs to office in 1346 he again took the same, office, which he resigned December 22, 1851. His lordship is one of the best practised statesmen of which England can boast. The extent of his experience gave him a consciousness of superiority in his own de partment which during the last few years of his official career was found most inconvenient by his colleagues, be traying itself iu impatience of advice and an unwillingness to submit his intentions to the Cabinet. This is believed to have been the determining cause of his retirement from office. Shortiy alto; the French Revolution of 1848, when what is commonly called "reaction" had set in all over Continental Europe, Lord Palmerston became, to use a common but expressive phrase, a "marked man." He was, as far as his department was concerned—viz., Foreign Affairs—the independent Minister of a free people ; and he was, moreover, the most feared antago nist of that tortuous policy and of those- unscrupulous politicians which had cost the late King of the French the loss of his Crown, and had caused the expatria tion of his family. It was at this time that the public opinion of the country rallied to the side of a Minister whom the Tories and a few of the extreme Radicals, for opposite and yet allied motives, combined to crush. A motion, condemning his policy, was proposed and carried, in ISSO, in the House of Peers. The Govern ment demanded the opinion of the Commons. A debate ensued, which was continued for several nights, and was remarkable as being the last occasion on which the late Sir R. Peel addressed the House of Commons. The departed statesman voted against him, while paying se tribute to his talents and character, in the exclamation —" We are all proud of him." Palmerston's conduct; was approved by a considerable majority of the house. The spark once struck, the flame soon followed. The first expression of public feeling was the ceremony of pre ser ting a portrait of Lord Palmerston to his lady. Then came meetings innumerable in all parts of the country in aid of his policy; next came a grand entertaintment at the Reform Club, which must be looked upon as the ex ponent of the general feeling of the liberal portion of the community, and that immense section of the British po pulation which advocates progress. After this his lord ship undertook an appeal to the common sense and hu manity of the continent by sending to every European Court Mr. Gladstone's well-authenticated acconne of tris wholesale violation of decency and disregard of the first principles of society by the King of Naples, consorting in the arbitrary imprisonment of hundreds of sonafttgs, ox - Ministers of State, judges, and patriots, who wstra subjected to horrible treatment by this ruler. During the years 1849-5041, Palmerston had rigorously exertecn himself to obtain from the Porte the liberation of Kossuth who bad bee n i n t h e first instance preserved from deli!. very to the Austrians by his influence. In the autumn of 1801 he succeeded in procuring the release of the great Hungarian and his fellow-exiles, in spite of the opposi tion of Russia and Austria. Soon afterwards a deputa tion from the districts of Islington and Finsbury waited on him with an address of thanks, containing some strong remarks on the conduct of the autocratic Sovereigns.- His lordship expressly guarded himself from appearing to adopt this l anguage ; b u t th e f ac t th a t h e did not altogether refuse the addresses so worded, and some little license o f ex p ress i on i n w hi c h h e i n d u l ge d in his reply (he talked of " bottle-holding" to the constitutional States), were laid hold of by Austria and Russia., and worked with great effect by the Ministers of those Courts, who demanded explanations of a nature which Pal merston was not likely to give. His lordship's resigna tion shortly after took place. Lord Palmerston has negotiated some of the most difficult affairs in modern European politics. One of these was the settlement of that intricate question in Belgian affairs which followed so closely upon the steps of the French Revolution of 1830, and threatened to throw all Europe into convul sions; a settlement which realised the long-cherished dream of baffled statesmen, who, for upwards of a century, strove to interpose a barrier to the military compact of the great Northern 'Powers. Such a consummation was reserved for Lord Palmerston, when he secured the tranquillity of Europe by the quadruple alliance of Eng latJ, France, Spain, and Portugal. Never was there a period of greater difficulty than when Lord Palmerston for the second time pacified Europe by the solution of the Eastern question. It was on this occasion that the political prescience of the British Minister, the genius that characterises his diplomacy, shone forth in all its splendour. The interference of Great Britain in the last Portuguero revolution saved the monarchy and the constitution. In a fortnight the Queen would have been de throned, and a republic, or a nominal regency in favour of her infant son, would have been proclaimed. Spain would have immediately interfered by force of arras, would have swept away the republic or the regency, and would have re-established the Queen with the mere semblance of a constitution. England interfered, and Portugal was governed by a Parliamentary - constitution. Upon his reported approval of Louis Nap oleon's coup d'ttai much public feeling was excited, and Lord Palmerston subse quently resigned the seals of the kroreign-offiee. When the Earl of Aberdeen form e d his ,coalition Cabinet in 1852, Lord Palmerston became Hoi.u!i Secretary. In December, 1853, his sudden resignation of office, for some inexplicable reasons, created comoiderable sensa tion ; but, after a few days' withdrawal, he yielded to the representations of his colleagues, and returned to his department, which he retained until the more bril liant office' of Prime Minister was placed within his reach. Iu 1832 ho was created a G.C.8.; and in 1841 a K.T.S. of Portugal. I - PRICE SD. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. RE-ELECTION OP LORD PALMERSTON, TIVERTON, Menday Night.—The election of a mem her to serve in Parliament far this borough, in the place of Lord Palmerston, who has accepted the office of First Lord of the Treasury, took place this morning, when the :Aoble Lord was re-elected without opposition. It was stated in The Sun of Saturday that Lord Palmereton's committee had adopted a resolution expraising their opinion that- in the present position of public affairs, and considering no neces! , ,ity which existed for the noble lotd'S presence in London, his personal attendance at the coining election should be dispensed with. This re solution ‘'S 24 communicated to Lord Patine:son ; who t•ransmitted the following reply to Major Hole, one of his leading supporters in the borough : "My dear Hole,—l am much obli g ed to my com mittee for the kind consideration which has led them to suggest that my presence at the election may be dis pensed with. " This will undoubted prevent some inconvenience to the public service, which at the present moment would have arisen from my absence from London. "Pray thank fry friends for roe for this attention on their part." The nomination took place in the Town-hall, which was crowded by townspeople and electors, and among the lattm we observed many of Lord Palmerston's prin cipal supporters. The Town-Clerk (sir. Porwood) having read the writ, and gone through the usual prclim:uaries, The Returning Officer (Mr. F. Hole, the Mayor) briefly opened the proceeding , , and called upon any elec tor who wished to propose a candidate to come for ward. Mr. John Heathcoat Amory cab!, he had the plea sure and gratification of proposing Lord Palmerstbn for re-election as member for Tiverton in the House of Commons. Tile return of the noble lord on that occa sion would be no triumph of political party. (Cheers.) He did not ask, on that coca ion, for the support of one political party more than of anether, for, in proposing to them Lord Palmerston, he felt he was asking them to re-elect a representative whom men of every sh do of political party cseld honestly and fairly support. (" Heer," and cheers.) Lord Palmerston, as they were well aware, had accepted the off' ,e of Prime Minister of this country. Ile hal not only been selected for that office by his Sovereign, but he had been pointed out as a fitting man for the position by Parliament and by the voice of the whole kingdom. (Cheers.) Lord Palmer ston was the man to whom the country looked at the present moment to bring to a conclusion a war in which the British arms had certainly not been defeated, for, on the c mtrary, they had gained the highest credit, glory, and renown (loud cheers), but which had not been car ried on in a manner satisfaotory to the British people. (Hear, hear.) The late Government had been defeated by no party faction, but had been destroyed by public opinion, and it was public opinion that had pointed out Lord Palmerston as the man most likely to carry on the war with vigour, and t 3 bring it to a successful and glorious issue. (Loud cheers.) Ho (Mr. Amory) need say little to them on behalf of Lord Palmerston, for he had so long represented the borough, and was known to them so well, and they placed such confidence in him, that he (NIL Amory) would be wasting his time if he asked those who had supported the noble lord before to support him on the present occasion. He turned to some few among them—not a very large number—who, on former occasions, had been inclined to oppose the noble lord, or who, at all events, had not given him cordial and hearty support, and he asked them ou the present occasion to vote for the noble lord. The electors of Tiverton might at any time have been proud of being rep resented by such a man as Lord Palmerston ; but certainly they never had more reason to be proud of such an honourthan they had at that time. (Cheers.) There was one point open which he (Mr. Amory) wished there should be no mistake, and that was the reason which had prevented Lord Palmer ston's presence among them on that occasion. It must not be supposed that there had been any want of atten tion on the part of the noble lord to his constituents, although he was the Premier of the country ; for, at the time that the writ was sent down, Lord Palmerston wrote to say that he would, at any cost, come down to the election. (Hear, hear.) Lord Palmerston's com mittee met on Thursday, and it appeared to them that not only would the attendance of the noble lord, at such an inclement season of the year, subject him to a great deal of personal inconvenience, but that it might pro bably be for the interest of the public service, under ex isting circumstances, that the noblo lord should remain in town, where his presence might be required in con nexion with the transaction of public business. On that ground the committee passed the resolution which had been published, and which was communicated to Lord Palmerston, who thanked them for what they had done and stated that they were perfectly right in supposing that it would be for the interest of the public service that he should remain in London. This, then, was the reason why the noble lord had not presented himself before them, as he would have done under other circumstances. (Hear, hear.) He (Dir. Amory) was convinced the electors would approve the conduct of the committee, and that they would feel that the interests of the public service at this moment were of far too great importance to be risked in the slightest degree byLord Palmerston's absence from his poet. (Cheers.) He thought, indeed, that it was perhaps, the most graceful compliment they could pay to the noble lord to re-elect him in his absence. (Hear, hem., and cheers.) Major HonE, in seconding the nomination, observed that Mr. Amory had alluded to the circumstances under which Lord Palmerston had been called upon to as sume the first position which could be bestowed upon him by the Crown, as Premier of this mighty empire. They knew that the Queen, finding from the opinions of the people expressed by their representatives in Par liament, that it was necessary that a new Administration should be formed, applied in the first place to Lord. Derby, as the head of the great Conservative party which had formed the larger proportion of the majority by which the late Government had been driven from office. Lord Derby, as ho had the candour to admit, signally failed in his attempt, but ho had declared that the first, and indeed the only statesman to whom he applied di rectly for aid beyond the ranks of his own party was Lord Palmerston. (Hear, and cheers.) The Queen then applied to Lord J. Russell, of whom they knew a great deal, though whether for good or for evil remained to be seen—(laughter) —but he also failed in his attempt to form a Government, and eventually the duty was confided to Lord Palmerston, who succeeded in forming an Administration which he (Major Hole) hoped in God would prove a good one. (Hear, and cheers.) He hoped that, under the guidance of the noble Viscount, that Government might succeed in placing limits to the ambi tion of that tyrant and despot the Emperor of Russia, and in showing bins that England and France united were too strong for him. (Cheers.) They must have faith in the noble lord. They must put trust in him as they had done for the last 20 years, and he challenged any elector for that borough to say that the noble lord had not, dur ing the time he had occupied the position of their repre sentative, done his best to promote the general interests of that country of which he was so bright an ornament. (" Hear," and cheers.) He regretted that the noble lord was not present among them, but at the same time they could not lose sight of the fact that the noble lord's time was much better and more profitably employed for the interests of the country than it could have been at Tiverton. He (Major Hole) had, however, no doubt that during the summer, in the course of the many gay fetes of which that town was to be scene, the noble vis count would take an opportunity of paying a visit to the electors, who, he hoped—following the usual custom of Englishmen when they were visited by their friends— would invite the noble lord to a dinner. (Cheers and laughter.) He hoped that on such an occasion, when ever it might occur, the noble lord would be able to tell them that the prospects of the country were snore satis factory abroad than was the ense at present, as ho (Major Hobo, had no doubt the policy of the Government would be satisfactory at home. it would then be for the elec tors of Tiverton to say to the noble lord, " Well done, you good and faithful servant—(laughter)—wo will keep you among us as our representative as long as you like to remain here ; and if you think proper you shall be re turned for Tiverton without the trouble of coming here, whenever your time may be more profitably employed." (Cheers.) The Czar of Russia had been the cause of dreadful catastrophes. There were few families in this country who were not suffering from the loss or mutilation of friends in the present war, and it was a dreadful thing that the love of power and the desire of aggrandisement of one monster should have not only caused so ranch personal suffering, but should also have occasioned such serious injury to the trading and com mercial interests of this country. He was about to say to all the interests of the country, but he believed the agricultural interest was an exception, and had bene fitted by the war. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) He was sure, however, that those who thus derived advantage from the war, some of whom he observed were present, m ost deeply regretted the i n di v id ual miseries which it occasioned, and the disasters with which it was fraught to the general interests cf trade and commerce. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He must pay the Conservative elec tors of Tiverton the compliment of saying that he had heard a great many of them express their belief that if there was a man in the United Kingdom who was able to rescue this country from the position into which it had been brought by the detectable war which was now raging, that man was Viscount Palmerston. (Cheers.) He called upon them, then, to give the noble lord a trial, and he would answer for it that the noble lord would pass through the ordeal successfully, mad that when he next presented himself to the constituency of Tiverton the Conservative electors would say to him, " My lord, you have done your duty like a man, and we, as a party, strong as we are, will not permit you to risk your seat, so long as you remain—as you have been for 20 years—the true, and trusty, and faithful representative of the borough of Tiverton." (Loud cheers.) The MAYOR inquired whether any other elector had a candidate to propose, but, as no one stood forward, ho proceeded to take a show of hands on tho nomination of Lord Palmerston. The show was unanimously it] favour of the noble lord. The MAYOR observed—l think Ido not err in saying that this appears to me to be a national, and not a party election. (Laud cheers.) I now declare Henry John Temple, Viscount Palmerston, duly elected a burgess to _ - THE LOSS OF LIFE AT ISLINGTON. The bodies of the two other parties known to be ir_ the ruins were, after some time, dug out, but life in each case was extinct. The following is a correct list of the killed Thomas ' Hodges, aged 14 years. George Hodges, aged eight years. Joseph Glover, aged 26 years, a married man. Jane Glover, aged 30 years, the wife of the former. Joseph Glover, the younger, aged four years, a son of the before named. Sarah Lane, ages 40 years ; and Francis Stoker, a police-constable of the N No. 262, aged 33 years, who has left a widow and one child (not four, as stated yesterday) to deplore his un timely end. This brave fellow, having heard the cries of a female in the house, rushed through one of the doors, reached the place the woman was in, took her in his arms, and was in the act of carrying her down stairs when a portion of the side wall fell, and both were forced down. They were instantly covered with the rubbish, an d when extricated b oth were found to be quite dead. Three other officers, named respectively Best, 431, of the N division, with another named Dixon, and a third named Woolston, nearly shared the same fate as their unfortunate comrade, Stoker, as they were all knocked down by the falling walls. They all received some g e .. vere contusions, but nothing serious is apprehended, One of the constables had, howe ver, to force his way through the rubbish, and to c l imb from the ground floor to the top of the premises, when a ladder VMS pro. cured, and he was taken down in safety.
