The sensation which had been created by the movements which sent him and De Clare out of .the market is deep and general, and people begin to talk indignantly about money-getting motives, and what not. Nothing has occurred to induce me to alter my opinion respecting Wild Dayrell and Kingstown. Flatterer is returning into favour; and Dirk Hatteraick is coming again, and must not, now the field has been so weeded, be slightly regarded. A FRESH MAN. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.—(THIS J VENING.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. Lord LYNDHURST presented a petition from cer tain members of the University of Cambridge against the abolition of oaths and declarations, as, proposed in the University Reform Bill. The Duke of CAMBRIDGE presented petitions from Christ's Hospital, from the London Hospital, and from some other body, against the Charitable Trusts Bill. Lord PORTI:IiN.I presented a petition from St. Thorna.a's Hospital to the Fame effect. The LORD 'CHANCELLOR said it wag evident that the petitioners laboured under some misapprehension with respect to the ohjects of the Charitable Trusts Bill. The Bishop of LO N DON presented a petition from Lambeth, against the opening of public-houses on Sun days. The right rev, prelate gave notice, that to-mor row he should move that an honourable address be pre sented to her Majesty on the subject of metropolitan interments, and the premature cloging of burial grounds. SECOND READING. On the motion of Lord REDESDALE, Harvist's Estate Bill was read a second time. THIRD READINGS. On the motion of Lord RED ESDALE the following bills were read a third, time and passed :—East Indian Railway, Surbiten Improvement, Newport Corporation, and Stourbridge Gas. POOR LAW (IRELAND). The Marquis of CLANRICARDE rose to move for copies of any correspondence between the com missioners for administering the 'law for the relief of the poor in Ireland, and any boards of guar dians and ratepayers regarding any proposed disso lution or amalgamation of unions in Ireland. The noble lord said that though he was inimical to the introduction of poor laws into Ireland, not considering them at all applicable to the circumstances of the coun try, he was of opinion, under the present altered condi tion of the 'country, that the law was working most fa vourably. He, however, thought, in order to render the law efficient, it would be necessary to have an extensive system of emigration and large public works. The poor law was on the whole Well administered in Ireland. The condition of the country was now greatly al tered, and he thought it would be most advantageous, and cause a great reduction of expenses if a proper sys tem of amalgamation was carried out. The noble lord concluded by moving for the returns mentioned above. Lord CAMPBELL was glad that such a return had been moved for by his noble friend, inasmuch as it would place the 'whole facts connected with the case clearly before their lordships. From the information which he had received from Ireland he entirely concurred in what had been stated by his noble friend. Earl GRANVILLE had no objection to the granting the returns moved for. Earl FITZ WILLIAM was understood to say that he thought it would be desirable to diminish the number of workhouses in Ireland. After a short conversation the subject dropped. CHARITABLE TRUST BILL. The Lord CHANCELLOR moved that this bill be referred to a select committee.—Agreed to. CUSTOMS DUTIES BILL. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY, moved the second reading of this bill.—Agreed to. SPIRIT DUTIES BILL. Viscount CANNING moved the second reading of this bill.—Agreed to. RELIGIOUS WORSHIP DILL. Vl* r; -A The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved the eedond reading of this bill. Lord REDESDALE said he should not object to the bill passing through its second reading, but he should reserve to himself the right of objecting to it in its future Stages, This bill bad passed through all its stages iv the other house after twelve o'clock at night, and he thought it right to draw their lordships' attention to this fact. The bill was then read a second time. THE STANDING ORDERS. Lord IiErIESDALE then moved that the standing orders Nos. 48 and 49' be taken into consideration, and that the following resolutions in relation thereto be agreed to, and if tvlopted by this house be communicated to the lower house for their concurrence. That this house is willing to concur with the other house of Parliament, if it shall think fit, in the transmission of messages, bills, and papers from one house to the other, namely, that in addition to the present practice with regard to messages between the houses, one of the clerks of either house may be the bearer of the message from the one to the other. The messages so sent to be received at the bar by one of the clerks of the house to which they are sent, at any time while it is sitting or in committee, without interrupting the business then proceeding. After a few words from the LORD CHANCELLOR and other noble lords, the resolutions were agreed to, and ordered to be sent to the other house for their concur rence. The Parliamentary RepreseAtation (Scotland) Amend ment Act, and the Registration of Births (Scotland) Bill, were, on the motion of the Duke of ARGYLL, read a seoond time. THE NEW FOREST. The Earl of MALMESBURY rose to call the atten tion of the Government to the incendiary' fires which bad lately taken place in and adjoining the New Forest. The noble lord entered at length into the subject, and blamed the Government for not attending to it. Earl GRANVILLE said that the attention of the Government had been drawn tq the subject, and said that every means would be taken to remedy the evil complained of by the noble earl. Aft& a few words from the Earl of MALMESBURY and Lord CAMPBELL the subject dropped. INCESTACY (SCOTLAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. Their lordships then-adjourned. ROUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed —Alford and Boston Road ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Capital) ; Newton in Mackerfield Improvement ; Saint Helen's Improvement ; Waveney galley Railway ; London Necropolis and National Mausoleum,Th f The "lowing bills were considered and ordered to be read %third time ;- _ Charih n , y ‘ ance Co mpau ' &c , lioad ; Colonial Life Assur- Dumbart on, 37 ,, : na tectric Telegr a ph C o mp a ny; Glasgow, Water a n d _lielensburgh Rail way ; Gloucester F oyries Railway ;ILoteard of Health ; Limerick an polita.n Railway , 1 -1, ( 4: 1 aiol Blackwell Railway ; Me troan,,esociety ; N.._wpkirttiol,al Loan Fund Life AsAur- Wolverhampton Railway T,4, ; Oxf..rd, W..rcester, and Sligo Gi3s ; Warri ngton vv.zrovements and Branches); PETITIoN s Petitions were presented by Afr I~i , raine, against the Marriage Bid, a from Cole vote by ;)allot ; by Mr. W. witti am : ° p• Pktition for ant i Hackrey, in favour of the Maerirr:i:ant Eltfett:nraisniul green Mr. M'ldtabon, from places in Ireland, ; by praying for i (inky int D the management of the prop Society of London in Ireland ; by Mr. Wickh am, fr) Bradford, for certain alterations of the Friendly s„ietilnes ni ß o l rr ST Ow a h .

Graham, as First Lord of t h e Admiralty, h regarding 2. n 'lnquiry into th e con d uc t of Cap t. ie, C r ist and the da t o o f t h ose papers from the Admiralty ; also tho se copy of an. order from Sir J. Graham ordering a court martial, a: ad the date of the same order. Sir J. G RAHAM said he knew not if it was quite re. guar that he should address the house on a notice of motion, hut under the pPeuligr c;re-TM,Q,an,..l n l the, n or:e t W:0-; ae its members, he hoped the hour. iv that courtesy which he new claimed. (dear, hear.) The house would remember that, on the motion for ad journment on Friday last, the hon. member for Ayles bury (Mr. Layard) made some comments, and in a most pointed manner alluded to him (Sir J. Graham). He had not the slightest intention of addressing the house on that occasion ; but the allusions were such that he thought it absolutely necessary he should rise in his place. He bad not had access to any official docu ments, and he had no opportunity of referring to dates, and without the least premeditation be addressed the house, according to his impression at the moment. He stated what he strongly believed, that, considering the freedom of debate in this house, that hon. members, in exercising that freedom, should use the utmost caution ▪ with respect to the accuracy of the statements they make, and also that it was incumbent on them, when any error in any statement they make should be brought to their knowledge, they should take the earliest opportunity of correcting it ; and he was of opinion that unless that • course be pursued by all bon. members that freedom of debate would be brought into disrepute in that house. Now, without any opportunity being offered him by the hon. member forAylesbury in private, orany explanation, and this being the very first day of the debate to which he referred that the house sat, the hon. member (Mr. Layard) thought, and thought rightly, that there was an error in the statement which he (Sir J. Graham) made on Friday last—to his surprise the first intimation he received was reading this morning in one of the public papers a letter signed by the hon. member, not giving him (Sir J. Graham) in his place in the house any opportunity of tendering an explanation. He stated also that when any explanation should be required of any hon. member with reference to any error he might have been led into, he did not think want of courtesy in ad dressing him was any excuse for that member not ac knowledging his error. He was strongly impressed with the opinion that the statement made by the hon. member for Aylesbury had been made in the session before Christmas. He bad no opportunity of looi.ing at authoritative records at the time he made his statement. [The right hon. Bart. here read a re rtion of Mr. Layard's letter on this subject, published in to-day's Times.] Now fortunately for bun (Sir J. Graham) he was in a condi tion to show that the error (pointed out in that letter) was perfectly unintentional on his part, if it were neces sary to give that assurance with proof ; but before the Sebastopol Committee he produced the original document from the Admiralty, in which order was given to inquire into the conduct of Captain Christie, which order was dated the '2Bth December, 1854. (The right lion, baro net read the order, which alluded to the grave error comcsitt s ed by Captain Christie in sending some Turki-h troops t Balaklava instead of to Enpatoria, and with reference to his general conduct.) That was the order which be produced in the original bef ire the committee. After the conclusion of the debate on Friday he had reason to believe he had made an incorrect statement, and he wrote to the Fiat Lord of the Admiralty asking him to furni•-li him (Sir James Graham) with copies of the official documents, which, how ever, he had not received, hut, on referring to the letter he had read before the Se bastopol committee, and the des'patch to Admiral Lyons- on his assuming the command of the flaet, and that his power extended to the dismissal of any officer under him, he found it bore date the 3d of January ; and though he had not seen the official answers to that order, he had no doubt the removal of Capt. Christie did take place in consequence of that order. He had now stated to the house exactly the error he com mitted in that respect. With reference to the trial of Captain Christie by court-martial, wher than that he should appear before the Sebastopol Com mittee, he begged to say—and he spoke only from recolh-ction—that Admiral Lyons having removed Cap tain Christie from his command, and appointed another officer as his successor, the Admiralty had reason to be lieve Captain Christie was about to call at Malta on his return to England, and the Admiralty were of opinion that, under the circumstances under which he had bee n removed, it would be fairer to Captain Christie that he should have the opportunity of vindicating his conduct before a Court-martial, i,sued the order fur his return from Malta to Balaklava early in Februa , y. Again before the appointment of the Sebastopol Committee, he (Sir James Graham) had the strongest opinion that the fairest course -to be adopted towards Captain Christie - was that his conduct should be submitted to a trial by his brother officers, who would be able to sympathise with his feelings, and beet understand the real merits or demerits of his conduct, and that was the only object he (Sir James Graham) had. He thought the only reparation he could make for an error he had committed, was to take the earliest opportunity of stat ing that error to the house—(hear)---and if what he hail stated had inflicted any wrong on the hon. member, these in his place he stated his regret, and acknowledged his error. (Hear.) The bon. member bad done that in a printed paper which he could not do in the house : be had imputed , motives to him (Sir James Graham) to enable him to screen his conduct, which be assured the house was quite alien to his feelings. The cause of the hon. member's conduct in doing so he (Sir J. Graham) would not stop to inquire into. It was to be regretted the hon. member should have imputed deliberate falsehood to him, but he threw himself on the indulgence of the house, after having bad the honour of a seat in it for 37 years, whether he could for one moment venture to impose on the house in the manner the hon. member bad imputed. (Hear.) THE IRISH SOCIETY. Mc. M'MAHON wished to ask the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether it was his intention to bring in a bill this session to carry ont the recommendation of the commissioners appointed to inquire into the state of the Corporation of London, that the Irish Society he dis solved, and its charter repealed by act of Parliament, and itA proptrty vested in a new set of trustees, to be appointed by the Lord Chancellor of Ireland ? Sir G. GREY could not positively state the course to be adzpted, as it would very much depend upon the course the house thought proper to pursue with respect to the M,tropolilan Management Bill. CO.STABULARY FORCE (IRELAND.) Mr. H.. HERBERT' wished to ask the' Chief Secre tary to the Lord-Lieutenawt of Ireland, when the annual S'atemebt of the amount of constabulary force employed in each county in Ireland on the Ist day of January, 1855, purmant to the act 6 Will. 4, c. 13, s. 57, would be presentbd to "the house. Whether the at tention of the Chief Secretary had been called to the injustice inflicted on certain counties in Ire'aod by the allocation of the constabulhry force accordbg to the schedule of the act 11 and 12 Vic., c. 72. And, whe ther it was the intention of the Government to take any steps towards a more just allocation of the force, in pro portion to the area and population of the several coun ties of Ireland ? Mr. HORSMAN could give no positive answer upon the question. All he could say was that the subject was under the consideration of the Government. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. Captain SCOBELL was anxious to ',now from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, whether, now that the colony of the Cape of Good Hope vas in the enjoy ment of a representative constitution, it had been or was intended to be arranged that the colonists should here afcer pay the cost of their own military protection. Lord J. RUSSELL was in hopes that he should 'be able to lay upon the table of the house on an early day the papers relative to the subject alluded to ley the gal lant captain. JAPAN. Mr. WARNER wished to ask the First Lori of the Treasury whether any privileges of trade with Japan had recently been acquired by Russia or the United States of America ; and if so, whether her Majesty's Governmpt had secured equal privileges fur British subjects ? Lord PALMERSTON, in answer to the quesCon of the hon.,member, said that Admiral Stirling had con cluded in the autumn of last year a treaty with Japan. That treaty provided that ships of this col,ntry should be allowed to put into port in Japan for the purpose of repair, but no commer cial treaty bad been entered into with that country, except that all Cie ports that were opened to other nations were to be free to England. He was not aware that any special treaty had been con cluded between Russia and Japan, but he knew that the treaties entered into with this country were similar with those entered into with every country ese.3pt China and Hol:and. WHITSUNTIDE RECESS. Mr. FREWEN wished to a4c the First Lord of the Treasury on what day he intended to propose that the house should adjourn for the Whitsuntide holidays, and what day re-assemble. Lord PALMERSTON said that what the Government proposed was, that the house should adjourn on Friday next to the Monday .week following, as he considered there would be no advantage in bringing members to town in order that the house might meet on the Friday preceding. Perhaps, after making that statement, it mad be as well for the convenience of the house that he should now state the course the Govern ment intended to pursue when the house met after the recess. (Hear.) The Government proposed r o pro ceed with the Riucation Bill on Monday, the day that the h-u-es.t. On Thursday the Government proposed to proceed with the Irish Landlord arid Tenants' Bill, aid that on the Friday and ,the Monday they should take C of supply. After a few words from Mr S. HERBERT, Mr. GLADSTONE said he tbouuht that. the proposals tendered by Russia contained elements for f :Lure dis cussion. POSTPONEMENT OF MR. MILNER GIBSON'S MOTION. After a short discussion, Mr. M. GIBSON pOstponed his motion till after the Whitsun recess. [LEFT SITTING.] OFFICIAL DESPATCH PROM FIELD- MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN. • (Front a Supplement to Friday's Gazette.)

( From the Times of this day. ) Mr. Milner Gibson's motion, which be is to submit to the House of Commons this evening, has at any rate the merit that it raises broadly and beddly the question in lebate, and demands from the house ao opiMon whether p inn the ministers were justified in breaking off liegotia ticr upon the terms conceded by Russia. Many, no doubt, will vote against this motion, who are nit un compromising advocates of war; but few, vie think, can support it who are not prepared fur any peace at any price of dishonour or discredit. We shall still need tur her test to classify those whose names may appear in the lajority ; but the minority, at any rate, we shall ki ow be persons who, if not theoretical members of the eac (-Society, are at any rate- prepared to give us full ractical extension to its doctrines as any of that respec able deputation which lately bowed the knee before the genius of war and discord embodied in' the gigantic form of the late ambitious Czar. Every one who shall go into the lobby with Mr. Gibson will, to our thinking, erase himself for ever from the list of practical statesmen, and add another to that numerous class of people, the wanderings of whose heads we are in the habit of par doning l and es ofamiable, tthis rude b u sley t aegl new u oatd t d:hs t i irtraa e ste r ttahps l is y ittlaneweh unfit forori theworld . Hadconflicts th the donin,g on account of the excellence of their hearts— agnododstmruegn such i s uvlt s tacev u iineit e l gi: b efgde e pl e rtu n ot whether nopitnoaeserkfittienienore,ndi n ahtt i noao t dda w sa l tn a ati rfeboel of the ewetaahhcroee: uwswinui Sebastopol eneptnspehtorsor uut r teni e odd- - produce. Many, doubtless, perhaps a majority of the House of Commons, would even then have thonght that a peace obtained' at such a moment comd neither be durable nor h. , nourable, and that it was better to trust to the fortune of war than to expose ourselves to the certain evils of a pacification patched up at so untoward a moment. Had the ques tion been whether a limitation of the Russian fleet was a sufficient - execution of the third point, there might possibly have been a majority to affirm that even this paper bulwark against material aggression was a suffi ; cient vindication of the honour of the Allied Powers. But when Mr. Gibson gravely propounds to us that the assent of France, England, Austria, Turkey, and Rus sia to the principles of the four general articles which had been proposed as the basis of the settlement of the Eastern question afforded a reasonable expectation that he recent negotiations might have bad a successful issue, asks us to assert a fact which very few people indeed i n this country ever believed at the time, and the rounds of which experience-has shown to be even more utile than was then supposed. On what should such reasonable expectation be grounded ? Not, cert ainl y , on the moderation of Russia, nor yet, we should hope, on the anticipation, however well realised by the result, that England was willing to consent to terms deroga tory to her position among the nations, and inconsistent with the grounds on which she entered on the struggle with Russia. The rea4onable expectation with which the Congress was opened was not, we apprehend, that it would lead to peace, but that, by exhausting every means of pacification, by adopting every E.uggestion which Austrian ingenuity could devise, we should I,v very s.,a, t.) ou r z e k e ., in t i a a i and war ally. ;zirl n)t peace,_ wai the icoAot , able expeetati,n on which the V. e nn a Conferences were founded. This hope, and not the hope (if peace, was the excuse for entering into negotiations with an arro gant enemy not sufficiently humbled to listen to fair and moderats terms. But Mr. Gibson's resolutions fly over all these preli minary questions, and boldly assert that the propositions which the Russian Envoy himself could hardly have made with a grave countenance—propositions having more the air of a dry diplomatic joke than a sober busi nesslike communication—really furnished elements upon which peace could be negotiated and the rights of all parties honourably and satisfactorily adjusted. No one, we think, could consistently come to this conclusion who is prepared to justify ever having engaged in the war at all. If it was eght to draw the sword against Russia to prevent her unjust invasion of Turkish terri tory, it could hardly be otherwise than ignominious to withdraw from the attitude of protection, and leave the country we had pretended to shield helpless, heartless, and powerless, in the hands of its barbarian invader. Those who thought the cause not worth an effort, the prize not worth contending for, in the first instance— and one of these Mr. Gibson certainly was—cannot be expected to think it better worth struggling for now ; but there are not a few, and among those we believe a numerical majority of the present Government, led by Lord John Russell, who, after having plunged us into the present war with Russia, and succeeded in convinc ing the nation of its, justice and expediency, are now eager for peace on whatever terms it can be oblained. From this portion of the Cabinet the House of Com mons is, we think, bound to demand a specific and cate gorical explanation. There is no subject on which Par liament has a better right to inform itself, at a crisis like the present, than the precise views and objects of our Cabinet as to the war, and the terms on which that war shall be concluded. On this point the country will tolerate no reserve and no ambiguity. At this moment the confidence necessarily reposed in Ministers is far more ample and far more momentous than on ordinary occasions. They have the power, even during the sitting of Parliament, a power which they were very nearly exercising a week or two ago, to make an ignominious and disastrous peace, without the know ledge of the House of Commons or the nation. During the recess their power is still more absolute. It is, therefore, absolutely necessary for Parliament distinctly to express its own opinions on peace and war, and as distinctly to ascertain the opinions of all the leading members of the Cabinet. No attempt on the part of Ministers to answer Mr. Gibson's motion by taking pre liminary objections to the consideration of the question, such as that it would interfere with negotiations now pending, or that it is an invasion of the prerogative of the Crown as to making peace or war, should be tole rated. The country must and will know whether those whom it intrusts with place and power do or do not en tertain on this vital subject sentiments in unison with its own. It will suffer no half-avows s, no official re ticences ' • will tolerate neither simulation nor dissimu lation. Lord Palmereon, Lord John Russel, and the other leading members of the Government, must make up-their minds to communicate their views with perfect fradliness, and to stand or fall as those views shall or shall not meet the sentiments of the House of Commons. We have grown tolerant of differences of opinion among our Ministers on minor points, but peace and war—such a peace, and such a war—cannot possibly be allowed to remain for a single day longer an open question in our Cabinet. (From the Morning Chronicle of this day.) _ The issue to be raised in the debate tonight, on the motion of Mr. Milner Gibson, is of far more importance than might be inferred front the terms of the right honourable gentleman's notice. He propose, by an Address, to "inform her Majesty that the Louse of. Commons has heard with much concern that a difference between the Allied Powers and the Government of Rus sia, as to the precise mode of applying the principle of the third article of those adopted as the basis of a settle ment of the Eastern questisio, has caused the Vienna negotiations to be broken off." And the right honour able gentleman further calls on the House to express an opinion, that the Russian propositions, for giving effect to the principle of that third article, contain elements fur renewed negotiation, and may offer the means for obtsmitig an honourable and satisfactory peace. al the surface these sug4esti ms seem reasonable enough., They are not ill-suited to the temper of the times, nor to the modes of reasoning which Mr. Milner Gibson and his colleague, of the Manchester school have striven to renderpopular among certain classes of the cons munity. That they embody fallacies, even treasons to political common sense, is no reason why they should not be put forward by the modern school of doctrinaires, or accepted by persons whose pursuits, prejudices, or interests preclude them from taking an enlarged view of public affairs. In no respect do the Machiavellian instincts .of Russian diplomacy appear rin re signally than in the artfulness with which, throughout the late negotiations, and from the very commencement of the present dispute, covert appeals have been made to those portions of the population of the Western Nations, whose limited political experience and strong personal interests might lead them to urge on their respective Governments the advantages of peace. If statesmen of standing, like Lord J bn Russell and M. Drouyn de l'Huys, were deceived by these professions, it is no Ehauie to the community at large th a t th e y ould, by the leaders of the Manchester School, be deemed c pable of a like delusidn. The scheme of the Russian policy is to paralyse the efforts of the Governments of Franceand England, by influencing public opinion, and thus sapping the foundation of their strength. Mr. M. Gibson is either the dupe or the unconsciou,stool of thosea•tute schemer , , when he falls into the trap so cunningly laid for his am bition as a public man, or for his presumption as a poli tical thinker. Upon the insincere use of language in Mr. Milner Gibson's notice we have alreadycommented. At - Vienna audacious cunning was arrayed against unsuspecting honesty. Our unsuccessful negotiator permitted his simplicity to be imposed upon, and the sagacious ex- Minister of France even exceeded the represent4ltive of his Sovereign's Ally, in his eagerness to become the vic tim of Russian perfidy. But at the present moment there is no excuse for the men who seek to reenact the degrading drama of the Conferences. Earl Grey, Mr. Milner Gibson, and the other advocates of a dishonour able peace, bare before them'all the materials on which a judgment can beformed ; aud they provoke a suspicion of something more than mere blind infatuation, by the pertinacity with which they seek to urge the country on a career of shame and ruin. • As the House of Commons is at present constituted, and when there is not in the Ministry a predominating mind to control the various factions, it is important to know what course the Conservatives are likely to take on a motion of this kind. We can well comprehend their enibarr issing p , sition. It is not so long since they were themselves angling for the support, not merely of the fanatical advocates of a peace policy, but also of some Statesmen who had played a distinguished part in public affairs, and who were supposed to have relinquished their direction because they sympathised with the ad vocates of peace in their object, though arriving at their conclusions by a superior process. The Chiefs of the Tory Opposition, therefore, may naturally feel some difficulty in reconciling their past coquettings with their present duties. As statesmen they see the absurdity of Mr. Milner Gibson's propositions. As party leaders, they are mortified at being compelled to forego so tempting an opporhnity to displace an inca pable Administration. We can imagine those gentlemen believing, or pro fessing to believe, in the sincerity of Russia. They may choose to regard the "proposals of Russia as more es sentially conservative and mire durably pacific" than the conditions stipulated fur by the Allies. They may adopt, to serve the purpose of the moment, the loo'e and slippery language of Russian diplomacy, and, by the host vulgar manoeuvres of the /tit of fallacy, joggle with truth and common sense. They may choose to wear the livery of the Nesseirodes and Gortschakoffs, and strive to hide their shame under the swaggering impu-, dence of conscienceless dexterity and heartless logic. We should not be surprised if men, pretending to the direction of the aflairs of this country, should prove themselves capable of so for abetting the policy of the enemy as to cover with the mantle of their political re spectability the daring duplicities which seem to have deceived the English and French Envoys at Vienna. These are the consequences of a habit of profligate manceuvring, but they bring after them speedy retribution. Yet, whatever their inclination, the Tories dare not directly arid openly abet the dangerous infatuation of the men of the Manchester School. They well know that as, although the individual occupant of the throne dies, "the King lives," so the general foreign policy of the country must be consistently maintained, whatever Ministry may inherit power. Therefore they could not openly abet the methodic madness of Mr. Milner Gib son and his friends ; and those who have expected them to do so are reckoning with a very imperfect knowledge of, the nature and working of our political system. The chiefs of the Opposition for the tune being Are always impressed with the relprinsibilites of future office. More especially on subjects affecting our foreign rela tions, they never can permit themselves to take a course which might compromise their subsequent position as Ministers of the Crown. Divested, then, of any extraneous inter3st derivable from possible party con fli ct, t h e no ti ce o f motion given by Mr. Milner Gibson rests on its own palpable and ostentatious demerits. The issue it raises directly affects the honour, even the political exi,tence, of this country. Tile immediate effect of its announcement has been to raise the hopes of the Russian Marty in the various Con tinental States to the highest pitch. Ignorant of the decayed importance of the Manchester school of politi cians, they have accepted this movement on their part as an indication of English feeling—as the first step to wards an ignominious surrender. Mr. Milner Gibson and his friends are too astute nut to know the specific mischievousness of their propositions, though they have not enough public virtue to abstain from urging them, They are doubtless well aware that the issue they desire to raise is not confined to the mere question of the de- 1 gree of skill exhibited by our diplomatists at Vienna, but that it embraces the whole question of peace or war. I Their cold-blooded indifferehce to all but the mere logic of their confined and dogmatic creed is as inexplicable on:any hypothesis consistent with patriotism, as is the kindred cunning of the Muscovites with European ideas of political moraliiy. The Allies have exhausted alike concession and courtesy in their negotiations with the enemy. They have-sounded the depths of his profes. sions, and have laid bare .his ultimate purpose —con quest at any price. Let us hope it will be distinctly understood that no party considerations are involved in the discussion of this evening. Those who most dis a:prove of the conduct of the present Government are irund to postpone their discontent to a consideration of the great interests of the nation, !SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

POST-OFFICE NOTICES. LETTERS FOR THE BRITISH FLEET IN THE BALTIC via DANTZIC. We insert the following notices, which have been just issued by the Post-Office authorities : "General Post-Office, May, 1855. "Her Majesty's Government having made arrange ments for keeping up a weekly communication between the British fleet in the Baltic and the pert of Ditutzic, by means of a steam-vessel to be . detached front the fleet for the purpose, mails will hereafter be forwarded weekly to Dautzic for transmission by that vessel. " The mails will be made up and despatched from London every Tuesday evening, and will be addressed to the care of th 4 British consul at DAntzic, who will de liver them to the naval officer, appointed to receive them." Upon letters addressed to commissioned, non-com missioned or warrant officers, as well as upon those fot soldiers and seamen, forwarded via Dantzic, there will be chargeable a combined British and foreign rate of postage of— .. 3d. when not exceeding a quarter of an ounce. 6d. when exceeding a quarter and not exceeding half an ounce, And so on, increasing threepence for every quarter of an ounce. "The postage mug be paid id advance, or the letters will not be forwarded. " Letters for solliers and seamen serving in the British fleet in the Balte may still be forwarded, urul r the yegulations for a .postage of one penny, by vessels of war or transports proceeding from England, but such opportunities will nece,sarily be uncertain. "Newspapers cannot be forwarded by the route of Dantzic, „because the arrangements of the Prussian Post office do not allow of the foreign post ►ge to which those newspapers would be liable, being collected in the United Kingdom. They would, therefore, be detained at Dantzic until that postage was paid. " By _vessels of war'," however, or transports, news papers will be forwarded to the Baltic without any' charge."
