Prussia still appears intent on maintaining a vacillating, or rather a deceptive course of policy. Her sole aim is to cast dust into the eyes of those with whom she may be negotiating, by statements and assurances not only without foundation, but altogether contrary to the actual facts. Indeed her duplicity is apparent froth the conflicting pro fessions made to the different parties. To the Ministers of the Western Powers she holds out the strongest hopes that she is prepared forthwith to enter into positive engagements—that she will at length pursue a straightforward and honourable course ; while to those of Russia the promises are equally distinct and unequivocal, that, if peace cannot be restored, a strict neutrality will be maintained. There must be great mendacity and equivocation towards one side or the other ; and, if we consider the antecedents of Fan- DEBICIC WILLTAK since the proclamation of War, we shall be enabled to perceive which party he wishes to bamboozle. We believe that Lord Jourr Russsm. who, while in Paris, had a prolonged interview with M. Ds HATZFELD, the Prussian Ambassador to France, and at Berlin had gni:iry communications with Baron MANTRUFFEL and the KING himself, found that it was impos sible to place the slightest reliance on any pro mise or assertion emanating from Prussian sources, and that the more positive the statement the greater certainty of its falsehood. The chief object of FREDERICK WILLIAM is to obtain admission for his representative to the ap proaching conferences at Vienna, without con tracting any binding engagements ft - ern which he could not subsequently shuffle out. For this he ) is prepared to incur any amount of .discredit, 'to quibble and equivocate in the most disgrace tut manner. We trust, however, that the repre' sen tatives of France , and England will remain &rm, and decisively and unequivocally reject the) insi dious and unwarrantable proposition. It is not merely as an amende to his 'sounded dignity that FREDERICK WILLIAM so anxiously desires to participate in the discussions about to be inaugurated. He naturally feels the loss of inftnence,and pesition arising froin this exclu --and he would glad;ly avoid the humiliation. ant hs well 'mows• that it is the natural re sult of hi s lip his mind to-folilue that when he made glorious, but so A'w a course not merely so in submit philarsoi , disgraceful, he should ~,h icau y to the inevitable conse quences. He c,ould not for a moment expect to retain the pr estige and influence which he had. himself d .elil j erately and wantonly sacrificed. His most e?..rnes t wish, however, is to be enabled to hely, i i : es ner diew, as he formerlyhelped hie brother ir,-law to assist Russia, not by boldly and man fully assum: ing arms in her behalf, but by pro ducing co! &fusion and dissension amongst those to 'iv/Jose councils he might be admitted. We col alemn the former policy, but it would at feast be st raightforward and resolute, while the latter woulifd be degrading znd despicable, more befitting a q nibbling pettifogger than a Monarch claiming to hold au elevated position in the comity of nactions. We cannot for a moment deem it possible that the demand can be acceded to. We sho 0 Id, indeed, entertain a humiliating estimate of tine Ministers and Plenipotentiaries of France and Fd 'gland to suppose that the one could propene or tht, ocher could consent to negotiate on such tern2s. t uat et FIuDBRICK WILLIAM justifies, or rather attempts to justify, the course he has pur sued, as being in obedience to the last dictates of his dying father—a point of which he was strongly reminded by the Emperor NICHOLAS at the very hour of his dissolution. The message, which might be regarded as coming from the grave, for along with it arrived the tidings of the death of the man who had su long exercised a paramount influence over the mind of his feeble brother-in law, produced an immediate response. Prince CHARLES of Prussia, notorious for his subserviency to Russia, was at once despatched on a mis sion of condolence to the widowed EMPRESS and the new CZAR —bearing, at the same time, an assurance of the inflexible deter mination of the KING to act in accordance with the principles inculcated by his predecessor. If any doubt could exist as to the terms it would be removed by the selection of so determined partisan as the Prince CHARLES. There is, there fore, an additional and most cogent reason wh) we should peremptorily reject the proffered inter vention of one so strongly biassed in favour of the enemy. Ou this point Lord JOHN RUSSELL cannot hesi tate. His acceptance of the Colonial-office ren dered it indispensable that he should speedily be prepared to discharge its important duties. If a representative of Prussia were admitted, we might rest assured that, not merely days but months, perhaps years, would be wasted in unprofitable discussions, while Russia would be encouraged to continue an obstinate resistance, in the expecta tion of benefits anticipated from the friendly in terference of Prussia It will take a long time to lay the demon of intolerance even in this land of boasted light and liberty. Clergymen are fond of ringing changes in our ears on the " mild and tolerant spirit of our Church," and the happy difference in this respect between Protestant and Papal countries. We wish the difference were much plainer. The nation is tolerant to a large extent, but no one can now pretend that the Church of England is the nation, or the nation the Church of England. Her clergymen dare not hazard another common wealth, and if they dare, the nation, represented by its Parliament, will not let them. The spirit, however, which roused the country to overthrow the Church two hundred years ago is by no means dormant in all her present clergy. There are those among them who would, doubtless, rejoice in a Star Chamber, and in slitting noses and clip ping ears, and praising GOD for such sentences in the orthodox ST. LAUD style, if only society would let them. Nothing is plainer than that no class of mortals on earth are more disposed to use power cruelly than ecclesiastics ; and nothing is more obviously the duty of the State than to de prive them of all legal means of annoying those whe differ from them. A Czar is not more re lentless than a bigot. Indeed the bigotry of thu majority of modern despots has quite equalled their tyranny. The odious quality is essentially the same, but now it shows itself in the civilian, now in the ecclesiastic. The latter is far the more hateful of the two, since the Great Head of the Church came to unteach men the love of• rule and to teach them humility. Our readers were probably many of them led to generalise in this sort yesterday by the report in OILT columns of another case of burial intole rance. It came before one of our metropolitan magistrates at Clerkenwell, Mr. CORRIE. Two Irishmen were summoned for a row, and that on consecrated ground. They or some one non inventus had knocked the book out of the clergy maafs hand, had seized the tools of the sexton, and rendered his last services superfluous ; and of course for hustling a Doctor of Divinity, and lay ing profane ha nds on a holy pickaxeand spade, they were taken in to custody. The dignity of the law and the dignity of a D.D. demanded no less. But what had tll e D.D. done ? He had only pitted Anglican ane, educated bigotry against Popish and illiterate bqvtry. He considered the Burial Ser vice of his prayer-book the only and the indispens able one for every body which sought repose in his churcl•rjard. His Catholic parishioners deemed the services already performed by their own priest the only and the indispensable one, and no doubt feared in, n.ry to the departed from what they held to be an heretical service. The priest had judi ciously :ai lvised his people to request the Protestant to abstPal i from the objectionable service, and if he penis ted, to withdraw and leave him with his sexton and clerk. The poor men, however, would fight ag ,ainst a faith when obtruded upon them, even (io ntrary to orders. They did not know that the p bysical force of law enabled a clergyman to perfo Tan over the dead the abhorred service, or they -would not have resorted to the physical force of w i 1 d Irish passion. TI ►e magistrate considerately gave the repre son' atives of the Church opportunity to behave as th sir Lord and Master would have done. He se at the Doctor of Divinity to the Lord Bishop of :London. He suggested that the bishop might p ermit the omission of a servica over Catholics ihich the surviving Catholic relatives deemed a imecration. The civilian could not conceive at first sight why a ceremony should be forced upon people who did not want it, merely because by _locality they were obliged to bury in a particular • churchyard. The bishop, however, soon rebuked the impious suggestion. It was, he informed him, a right of the Church to read her service over all bodies interred in her churchyards, and the right must be sustained. The magistrate bowed to the bishop. Not being an ecclesiastic, however, he pitied the ignorance of the poor men, fined them only ss. each, bat prudently threatened that, if the offence were repeated, they must smart for it to the heart's content of Bishops and Doctors of Divinity. Now, we humbly think that while ignorant Irishmen must be kept from rows, it would have been more creditable to the magistrate to have lectured the bishop and his subordinate in the spirit of his first suggestion. They in our opinion occupy a much more disgraceful position than the Irishmen. We hear everlasting homilies on the liberalising tendency of education, but if such un meaning bigotry as that displayed by these church men is' to be the result of it, we may as well shut up our schools. Here are a pair of college-bred gentlemen fighting with illiterate Irishmen over the corpses of poor Catholics, contending as a right for what could not benefit the dead, while it was revolting, indeed most irritating, to the living ! It i s b ut recent l y L or d S HAFTESBURY and his f r i en d s were decla i ming, and j ustly, against th e burial- ground t Spanish intolerance which denied a , ro a t i es i t n an al t l s ; - or, if it granted them on e , refused permission to ce l e b ra t e p u bli c ly the Protestant service. bi go t ry enoug h , to b e srst and most sacre d sorrows or Protestants in salting gantdhetldieeemp such cases, for in living. For the latitude of London, however, we think the bigotry we have just deicribed quite as bad. The men who could in enlightened England thrust a hated religions service on the mourners for the dead would in Spain assuredly no t have hesitated to consign Protestant bodies to the stable-yard, or to low-water mark. Our ecclesias tics should know that no bigotry is more revolt ing to the' hearts of all laymen, whether Church men, Dissenters, or Catholics, than that which shows itself in wounding the feelings of those who mourn for their dead. The public career of JOSEPH HUME was one of those of which the country may be proud. It was energetic, manly, unselfish, and patriotic in an extraordinary degree. It was morally heroic. Having ever admired his zeal in the public ser vice, and especially his unquailing perseverance in pursuit of his righteous aims, under circum itances such as would have deterred most men, it was not until the latter portion of his life the great-heartedness of the man burst upon us. He who had been the jeer of every liveried sycophant of power and every imperti nent imbecility of rank, who had been hooted, iiissed, butted at, and traduced by all who throve by or abetted corruption in Church or State through a long course of years, and who had passed jeer, hiss, assault, and slander by with an impassibility that seemed to indicate an almost total al:sauce of sensitiveness, had, it be tame known to us, the tastes, percep tions, and feelings, if not the uttorance, of the poet. The " Jon HuME" of the lobby, the clubs, the press, and the hustings, had these and persevered. Had these and never betrayed, never bore, indeed, a particle of resentment, but went steadily on his appointed way, and did his work like a man—always at his place,. always active, and always conciliating, but resolved. It was his misfortune, so far as fame is concerned, to have cost his country nothing, and to be an economist and a civilian. Had he worn regimen tals, and never hesitated at an estimate, what an " incarnation of duty" he would have been called ! "JOSEPH HUME, a Memorial," by . JOSEPH BURNLEY HUME, lies before us, and has suggested the preceding remarks. It is written in irregular couplets, after the measure of " Locksley Hall," and possesses considerable merit, many of the couplets being very graphic, the character hap pily hit off, and the whole pervaded by intense earnestness. But it is more than a poem :itis a tribute of affection paid to the memory of a father by a son, and we advert to it here in sup port of our previous remarks, and in proof of the high moral bearing of that father. He who could inspire so much veneration and love, as the memo rial reveals, could be no ordinary man, and must have possessed most of the qualities attributed to him. To his robust frame must have been " Knit a soul of nature's simplest mould, Strong, calm, brave, tender, manly, like some patriarch of old ; And so sincere, that what e'en foes would promise he believed ; And did so ever and again, how eft sn'e'er deceived." We can believe that --" Evermore unruffled : strife embittered not his mind ; Defeat and scorn could never leave one rankling pang behind." And further, that, "Benevolent himself, in quenchless hope the earth he trod, His being one continued act of thanksgiving to God ' - And thus a long charmed life he lived, that s c arce knew check or fall, Successful as but few can be, and happy beyond all." It is melancholy to reflect how inadequately public benefactors are appreciated in their life time, but it is some satisfaction to know that "virtue is its own reward," and that appreciation comes at last ; and we feel confident that among public benefactors a higher place than ever will be accorded to him, to whose " Simple soul was given a sturdy common sense That seized what finer talents missed with striking prescience," to the homely, indefatigable patriot, JOSEPH HUME. Tho Queen has given 501. out of the Royal bounty to Catherine Wilkinson, of Liverpool, to whom, is owing the establishment of baths and washhouses for the poor. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, who was to have left town for Melton Mowbray, has been compelled to defer her departure until Thursday next, in consequence of not having sufficiently recovered from the cold from which she has been suffering. The Marquis of Hertford has arrived in Berkeley square from the French capital. * The Earl of CAledon, whose seriou4 illnems during the past three months has caused considerable anxiety to his numerous friends, is now understood to be satisfactorily progressing- towards convalescence. The Earl and Countess of Wilton are dispensing their hospitality at Egerton Lodge, Melton" Mowbray, to a distinguished circle. The Hon. Captain Dudl e y an d Lady 'Elizabeth De Ros, Lord and Lady Newport, Lord Canterbury, &c., are amongst the visitors. The Earl and Countess of Durham are about to visit Paris for a short period. On their return, the noble earl and her ladyship will occupy the mansion, No. 122, Park-lane. The countess's accouchetnent is expected to take place in the month of June. The Earl and Countess Cowper gave a dinner party last evening, at their residence in Great Stanhope-street. Among the guests were Viscountess Palmerston, the Marchioness of Ailesbury, the Austrian Minister, and the Countess Colloredo, Viscount and Viscountess Sydney, Lord Charles Bruce, the Hon. W. Cowper, M.P., &c. The Earl Fortescue is not expected to return to town until Easter. His lordship is still at Castle Hill, where the family have been since August.

THE SOIREE AT UNIvEASITY COLLEGE.--The students of University College la , t evening entertained a large and distinguished body of per:ons known to be interested in eduction and the pursuits of science and literature. The conception of the entertainment was a happy one, and does infinite credit to the energy of the students, while it is a proof of their intellectual tendencies. FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE ROYAL STANDARD THEA TRE, SHOREDITCH.—On Monday night a fatal accident occurred at this establishment to a stage carpenter, named Thomas Ray, aged 48 years. Deceased, who was in the service of Mr. Douglas, the lessee, was en gaged after the performance in covering over a large piece of looking-glass, in the front entrance hall, when he slipped front the ladder on which he stood, and fall ing to the floor, a depth of 18 feet, sustained a fracture of the skull, from which he died yesterday morning. The deceased, who was a steady workman, has left a wife and five children unprovided for. RUSSIAN PRODUCE.—The idea that the purchases in the English funds yesterday were consequent upon im proved prospects of peace caused flatness in the markets for Russian produce. Tallow at one time was very dull, but it partially recovered before the close. AIISTRALIA.—The Dawstone and the Kurrajong have arrived from New South Wales, but the amount of gold they bring, if any, remains to be ascertained. The Brilliant, from Geelong, has 35,000 ounces, valued at 140,0 001. MADRAS.—The Nile (Nisbet) has arrived in the Downs in 86 days from Madras, having touched at the Cape of Good Hope about the 25th of January. • Her mails would be received in town to day. PRICE OF GoLD.- —The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par (according to the last tariff), which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10j,d. per ounce for stand ard gold, gives an exchange of 25.17; and, We exchange at P.tris on London at short being 25-124 it follows that g old is about 0.18 psr cont. dearer iu Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold 423 i per mark, which, at the Enc,lish Mint price of 31. 17s. 141. per ounce fur standard gold, gives an ex change of 13 . 4! ; and, the exchange at Hamburg on .-nnron at short being 134), it foAows that gold is 0.18 cent. dearer in London than in Harahan?

VIENNA, ALutcH 12. A report is circulated to-day that a battle has been fought before Sebastopol, but without any de cisive results. General Osten-Sacken was wounded, and the French have taken one of the forts. Both sides claim the victory. The Congress will be formally opened on Wed nesday or Thursday. A pacific solution is considered probable. Count Alvensleben is likely to represent Prussia at the Conference. Prince Gortschakoff had the honour of being received to-day by the Emperor Francis Joseph, to whom he presented the new letters of credence. pv -1101 FRANCE. We have received the Moniteur of yesterday. It publishes an Imperial decree promulgating the act of acceptation signed at Turin on the 2Gth of January, 185, on the accession of his Majesty the King of Sardinia to the convention of 'the 10th of April, 1854, between France and - England, as fol lows : "Napoleon, by the grace of God and the national will, Emperor of the French, d:c., have decreed and decree as follows : "Art. 1. His Majesty the King of Sardinia hav ing acceded to the convention concluded at London on the 10th •f April, 1854, and our Envoy Extra ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to his said Majesty having in virtue of our full powers and in our name, accepted the said accession, the respec tive ratifications were exchanged at Turin on the 4th of the present month of March ; and, in con sequence, the said act of acceptation of the accession and the military convention concluded between France and Great Britain and Sardinia will receive full and entire execution." Up to last night M. de Wedell had not seen M. Drouyn do l'Huys on the subject of his mission nor the Emperor. The first interview was to have taken place yesterday with the Minister, and this day, I believe, with his Majesty. Press of busi ness or some other cause prevented it. That with the Minister was postponed to this day, and the audience of the Emperor till to-morrow. Nothing precise of the instructions the Prussian Envoy has brought with him can as yet be said, further than that he is believed to be entrusted with a letter from the King of Prussia to the Em peror Napoleon. Not only is it still affirmed that the intelligence received from Vienna is of a peaceful kind, but it is added that another letter has boon received from the Emperor of Austria, declaratory of the same facilities for establishing peace that have been al ready noticed, and expressive of the hope that the French Government will not let slip the occasion now offered for arriving at such a consummation. It is stated in the Debats , that Prince Charl es o f Prussia, who is to go to St. Petersburg to pre sent the compliments of the King, his brother, to the new Emperor, is to explain the King's inten tions respecting the dying message of Nicholas on the subject of the relations of Russia and Prussia. The Prince is to assure Alexander that the King, desiring the coxtinuation of peace, is ready to con tinue the work of mediation, if the new Emperor will continue the policy of the Emperor his father. If he should fail, he will confine himself to a strict neutrality. BOURSE, MAPCFI 13.—CLOSING PRICES. Cash. fr. c. End of Month. • 94f. 75c.

A letter from Vienna states that M. de Bruck has had several audiences of the Emperor. On ac count of the present state of affairs, a greater free dom of action and more extended powers will be granted to him as Finance Minister, than to his pre decessors. The Ministry of Finance is to become completely independent of the other Ministries of the Council of the Empire. It has just been decided that, in consequence of the imminence of war, the militia, which has not been called out for several years, shall be reorganised throughout the whole extent of the Austrian Empire. That body will be reconstituted on a uniform plan, and placed under the superior command of a general officer. General de Kempen, who is now President of the Superior Direction of the Police,is spoken of for this important post ; and that which he vacates will be added to the functions of the Minister of the In terior. All the letters from Vienna agree in stat ing that no war has ever been so popular in Austria as that which is now being prepared against Russia. It is, they say, the general wish of the nation. Since 1813 such an outburst of the national spirit has never been witnessed ; the enthusiasm is uni versal among all classes of the people." RUSSIA. The Journal de St. Petersbourg, of the 6th, says : " On Saturday last, at half past one o'clock, the Court, the General Officers, and officers of the Guards, and of the army and navy, and persons of distinction of both sexes, assembled at the Winter Palace to take the oath of allegiance to his Majesty the Emperor and to his Im perial Highness the Cesarwitch Grand Duke, heir ap parent. After the ceremony all these personages were admitted to the honour of presenting their felicitations to their Imperial Majesties on the occasion of the acces sion of his Majesty the Emperor to the throne." The Official Gazette publishes' the order for wearing six mouths' mourning for the deceased Emperor. An order of the day by the head of the Police of St. Petersburg announces to the inhabitants of the capital that, dating from Monday, February 21 (sth March), all persons, without distinction of rank or condition, are admitted to the Winter Pa lace to pay a last homage to the late Emperor Nicholas 1., of glorious memory, from 8 to 11 a.m., and from 2 to 6 in the afternoon. Major-General Prince Menschikoff, of the Em peror's suite, Director-General of the Affairs of the Imperial Head-quarters, and of the private equi pages of his Majesty, has been appointed Aide-de- Camp-General of the Emperor, and retains this office. The Danube of Vienna of the Bth states from Odessa that the commandant of the army of the south had caused considerable quantities of spirits and other commodities intended for Austria to be stopped. The measure lately adopted by Russia of declaring the Governments of Minsk, Mohilew, and Chernazoff in a state of siege, and especially of separating Chernazoff from the provinces placed under the command of the general-in-chief of the army of the south, is represented by the above paper as a sure sign that the great active army is divided into two parts, each of which is to act in a separate direction. One of these parts, it states, is to be commanded by Prince Gortschakoff, and the other by Prince Paskiewitch. DENMARK. COPENHAGEN, MA.RCII I have already informed you telegraphicall)r of the appointment of a committee of the Volksthing to examine the late ministers previous to brinOng in a formal act of impeachment. That committme is composed of the - five-and-twenty members r most inimical to the former cabinet, and with Bi: ihop Monrad as President. The princial charge aga dust them was for having illegally, and without the con sent of the chambers, exceeded the budget a,nd._ ar bitrarily spent money not voted by the Diet. Yesterday the whole of the Volksthing was ( vened for the purpose of hearing the report of the committee, and when this was done it was ag; teed to impeach the late ministers, and make them ..re sponsible for having exceeded the disbursein aq is fixed by themselves (the Volksthing) in the bud s ;, A ; and the financial committee of the Volksthing ras ordered to extract those sums on which the cha: cge was to be founded. _ _ _ To-day the plenary committee held a sitting, P old after long discussion, ill which the conduct of 1;i ie late ministers was defended only by Whither an d Colonel Tscherning, it was decided by a largo ni*%- rity (the whole house against seven votes) to refui to recognise the whole of the SLUM thus arbiitarily spent by the Ministers of War and Marine, with a few trifling exceptions, as well as those paid for the expenses of the Diet and the purchase of the Post office steamers. The:Deputy Herr Hag() was •rdered. to bring up the report. A further proposal of impeachment was not ana(7te, and the steps to be eventually taken will be 1(46 to the decision of the Volksthing when the report is brought up. Although we have had a thaw for sever 0 .1 days, there is no alteration in the stato of the is A . The rriAltCll. 14, todo, Belts are both impassable, except with great d4nger and difficulty, and we are therefore still without any news from the south. But the Sound is com pletely frozen over, and a lively intercommunica tion with the S wedish coast, extending down as far as Malllls, is daily kept up, by means of carriages, waggons ; and sledges. The king is seriously indisposed, and bulletins are issued daily, but I do not think there is, at the present moment, any immediate cause of appre hension. THE MEDEFERRANEAN. MARSEILLES, March 12.—The death of the Em peror Nicholas has caused no relaxation here in the expedition of troops and military stores to the East. On the contrary, there never was more activity displayed in that respect than at the pre sent moment. The authorities here have received instructions to prepare for the reception of 50,000 men and 8,000 horses, which are to be shipped here and at Toulon for the Crimea. Every effort is being made to provide lodgings for . them, without billeting them on the inhabitants. The sick and wounded, which arrive here in vast num bers every week by OA steam-packets from Con stantinople, aro forwarded as quickly as possible to their respective homes. The mail packet which sailed yesterday for Corsica was crowded with invalids, natives of that island. The Zouaves are despatched to Algeria, with which arrangement they appear not to be dissatisfied. The frost-bitten are carefully attended in the military hospital, and 300 beds are - kept vacant in the civil hospital in case of necessity. The barrack of the Corderie has likewise been fitted up for the reception of mili tary invalids. The port of the Joliette is again crowded with steamers and transports chartered by Government for the conveyance of troops. The British steamers, the City of Manekester, the Glasgow, and- the French steamers, la France, Bresil, and Byzantin are capable of receiving 4,000 men and a number of horses. The American clipper Ocean Herald is expected to transport 400 horses. A. number of the artillery and engineers of the Im perial Guard are waiting for embarkation, but the hurricane which has prevailed here for the last three days has retarded their departure ; in fact, the cold is more severe at present than at any pe riod during the winter. There appears to be no longer any doubt as to the Emperor's departure for the East. A letter has been received here by the family of an officer serving in the steam corvette-of-war Primoguet, at present in Toulon, announcing that the captain has received orders to accompany the Imperial yacht, Reine Hortanse, to Marseilles to receive the Em peror and a portion of the Imperial Guard by the 20th inst. _ _ Letters from the French before Sebastopol, and those received by the families of officers, natives of Marseilles, are confined to domestic matters, strict orders having been issued by General Canrobert to all officers to refrain from writing on military sub jects. One of the writers who had au opportu nity of visiting the Allied camps, among other facts, states that the French army is composed of 60,000 men capable of bearing arms, and the British 8000. A letter from Toulon, dated this morning, an nounces the arrival there of the steam-frigate °renegue from Constantinople. The following troops are expected at Toulon to be embarked for the Crimea. The division of General Herbillon, consisting of 7,100 men and 800 horses, and a di vision of the Imperial Guard composed of 7,500 men and 1,300 horses. -Telegraphic advices considered favourable to the prospects of peace have reached the City from Vienna. Prince Gortschakoff, who has at length received his powers in due form, had signed a public document, recognising generally the princi ples which are to serve as the bases of negotiations, and which it will be the business of the Plenipo tentiaries ito define and apply. Other private ad vices concur with the above, stating that the nego tiations are proceeding satisfactorily. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. -, _ We have received Cape papers to the 29th of January inclusive—a month later than those pre viously received. The news now to hand is im portant, inasmuch as it conveys the gratifying in telligence that the frontier was again tranquil, and that all immediate apprehensions of an outbreak were lat an end. The tactics, however, of the Kafirs were difficult to comprehend Land though every appearance of war bad vanished, the colonists wore on tb.e alert, and were preparing themselves against all future contingencies. CONVICTION OF MISS DOUDET.—Miss Doudd was convicted o , n Monday, before the Tribunal of Correctional Police of Paris, of having voluntarily given blows and inflicted pe;onal injuries on the four daughters of Dr. Marsden, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment, 200 f. fine, and the cost;, the maximum, of the penalty. CommAlin OF THE ARMY IN IRELAND.—GeneraI Lord Seaton, arrived at the Royal Hospital on Mon day, and aisiumed the command of the army in Ireland, in succession to General Sir Edward Blakeney. ARRIV.AIr OF LORD CARLISLE. —DUBLIN, Tuesday Morning.- —The Earl of Carlisle arrived at Kingstown at 12 o'clock last night, by the Prince Arthur, from Holy head. 1-1 is Excellency was received on landing by three of the din )tiers of the Dublin and Kingstown Railway, and condo cted to the special train which was in waiting to convey him to Dublin. Upon arriving at Westland row, the a .arl took his seat in one of Lord St. Germans's carriages, and proceeded to the Viceregal lodge. Mr. Herman, the now Chief Secretary, was prevented from accompan: ving Lis Excellency by the pressure of public business ; but it is expecfed that he will arrive this day, in time ti perform the duties of his office at the investi ture of tbi Lord-Lieutenant.

CITY OF LONDON TIIZATILE.—This well-conducted es tablishment has made a most extraordinary hit by the production of a novel and instructive drama, entitled _Money and Miser-y. The effects are powerful in the extreme. The delicate daughter of a noble lord is driven, with her infant child, from the roof of her cruel parent toi wander on a desolate heath amidst a fearful snow storm, where she and the child perish. Years after the spirit of the mother appears to the repentant father. The supernatural appearance of the mother and child is admirably managed. Description would fall short of the excellence of this heart-stirring drama. It was written by the late Mr. John Wilkins, and may be ranked among his best productions. The theatre is I nightly crowded to witness it ; and, although it has ran six weeks, the attraction is unabated. We strongly advise a visit to this theatre. AN ILL-GOTTEN HOARD.--Yesterday several prosecu tions were prefrrred before Mr. Serjeant Adams, at the Middlesex Sessions, by the parish authorities of St. Luke, Old-street, against keepers of disorderly houses, in Hatfield-street. The parties charged were John Newton, 43 ; Eliza Hopkins, 43 ; Harriet Young, GO ; and Sarah Gordon, 53, The two first-nained pri soners lived together as man and wife, and kept the house, No. 2, Hatfield-street, described as a brothel of the worst description. The prisoners young and Gordon kept the house, No. 3, arlj•oring, which was also proved to be an establishment of a most infamous kind. The pr:ncipal persons concerned in it was one Ann Rubinson, now in Nowgate on a like charge. When the two prisoners, who acted as servants to Robinson, were arrested, and the house searched, two watches, some clothes, and Bank Stock certificates to the amount of 1,035/., in the name of Ann Robinson. were taken possession of by the police. The Assistant Judge sentenced Hopkins, Newton, and Young each to six months' hard labour, and Gordon to three month, she having been a sort of servant under Young. EXECUTION ON 'DUMAS MUNRO. • CARISLE, March I3.—Thomas Munro, who was convicted at the Carlisle .assizes for the murder of Isaac Turner, was executed Imre this day at twelve o'clock. THE IRON TRADE.—Since our last notice the prices of iron have considerably declined, and a downward ten dency still prevails, notwithstanding the general demand has shown symptoms of some slight improvement, and much less despondency marks the accounts from our most important export market—the United Slat's. CA.LIFOI2NIA. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 31. —For the last fortnigh the market has been remarkably dull, owing chiefly to the scarcity of gold dust, caused by the long continuance of dry weather. The importations have, however, been light, which has enabled the merchants to avoid forcing sales at a sacrifice. Grain and flour had lately risen considerably, owing to a dreaded scarcity from a short crop of California produce in the coming season ; but the demand from the interior has been so limited that prices have receded. The same may be said of sugar and rice, while English manufactu re s ar e in no better condition. In fact, English mercan tile business is much neglected and badly arranged in this place. There is au absence of forecast and of intelligent enterprise, which keeps it in a sluggish jog-trot routine that produces few good results. For instance, the goods sent out arelimited toassortments supposed to meet the taste and supply the consumption of California ; and, as this con sumption is over-estimated, the market is generally overstocked with unsaleable merchandise to such an extent as to force the consignees to re-ship Eng lish goods to other markets—a measure which gene rally ends iu loss—while the trade with Mexico is entirely neglected. Now, the Mexican business in English goods, carried on with Lima and Valparaiso, has for many years been the beat and most highly prized by English merchants on the Pacific coast ; and a great portion of it could be diverted to Cali fornia if the English houses would only receive suitable assortments. The Mexicans desire this di version, and are anxious to see it effected. Mexican buyers would• much rather come to San Francisco than go to Lima or Valparaiso to make their pur chases, from the greater proximity of the former place to the coast towns of Mexico, and from the greater facilities of intercourse afforded by the steamers and sailing craft plying along the coasts of the two countries. Besides, we already take some of their produce, and the Mexicans have in San Francisco an unfailing market for their silver dollais and gold ounces, both of which command a premium at all times. Our trade with China being far greater than that of any other place on the Pa cific, Mexican dollars are always in demand for remittance to China, and the operations of our local mint take so much gold dust out of the market that all sorts of coin will have to be remitted to Europe and other countries to pay for our imports, for, except a few hides and some other insignificant articles, we have nothing else to export. As a proof that my views are not imaginary, I may mention that several Mexican merchants have already come here with money in hand to make purchases, who have gone away disappointed at not finding the suitable assortments. This Mexican business is one, too, in which the Americans cannot rival us, as all conversant with it know. They cannot compete in prints and other fabrics of this sort, either in quality or cheapness, with the English manufacturer. An English house, giving the necessary attention to this business, could not fail of success. There have been fewer transactions in exchange for this mail than usual, partly owing to the supply of gold dust being so limited that the bankers could not procure a sufficient quantity to remit to meet their bills, and partly from the distrust engendered by the many recent failures of American banks on the Atlantic side. The price of gold dust is $l7 40c., and very little offered for sale, as the greater part now goes to the Mint to be coined. The remittances by this steamer are made up partly by gold coin in lieu of " dust" to meet bankers' draughts. Her Majesty's ship of war Pique is still in port. We have not had any tidings of the rest of the squadron since I last wrote. The new Admiral has gone to Valparaiso from Panama. The French corvette Moselle sailed hence on the 23d for Tahiti. The State Legislature is in session. The most notable measures in progress are :—" A Bill for the Suppression of Gambling ; " one for the construc tion of au immigrant-road from the - valley of the Sacramento to the Eastern boundary of the State ; an attempt to introduce the " Maine Liquor Law," which I am quite sure will be abortive ; an act increasing the capitation tax of $5 each now paid by all foreigners arriving seawards to $2O a-head in the case of the Mongolian race, with the view of checking the Chinese immigration ; an act to amend the Consti tution ; and one of the oddest pieces of legislation I ever heard of—viz., an act to authorise married women to convey real estate in their own names. This novel bill provides that these lucky ladies can " convey joint or separate property in the absence" of their lords, provided the unfortunate " husband has been absent from the State one year prior to such conveyance." If this law wilt not bind hus bands to their wives apronstrings, it will, at all events, have the effect of proven ting long "absence." The promoter must be either a confirmed old bachelor, who has determined never " to pass the Rubicon," or au advocate of the " rights of the strong-minded." The country is suffering dreadfully from the want of rain. The grass has scarcely sprouted yet in most places, and in the interior the frosts have nipped and dried up all that had appeared, leaving nothing for the cattle to feed upon. The miners are idle in such districts as are not supplied with artificial means for the conveyance of water to the diggings. This month has been rife in crime of all sorts, —murders, duels, robberies, burglaries, assaults with deadly weapons, larceny, rape, and other minor offences, such as forgeries, petty larceny, and the like, far too numerous to mention ; and January has been particularly distinguished by a recurrence to Lynch law in various parts of the country. During the month nine men have been put to death by the "people ;" one at Los Angelos, one at So nora, one at Mariposa, one at lowa-hill, one at Volcano, one at Salmon-creek ; and three at the same time at Turner's-ferry, on the river San Joa quin. All these cases, except the three last men tioned, were for murders committed in rows, and on very slight provocation in the worst case, and in some cases without provocation. Some of the murders were committed for the purposes of rob bery. The case at Los Angelos was the most notable :—An American named Brown was found guilty, after a legal trial, of murder, and con demned to be hung on the same day with a Cali fornian, also legally condemned for murder. Brown's execution was ordered by the Supreme Court of the State to be stayed on an appeal, on the ground of a flaw in the indictment, which would probably have given him a new trial. The people, however, determined that both criminals should have even-handed justice meted out to them, and after the Californian was executed by the constituted authorities a mob broke open the prison and hanged Brown. The Mayor, after he had performed his part at the legal execution of the Californian, resigned his office, to enable him " consistently to assist in his private capacity" in the Lynching of Brown. At last accounts he was a candidate for his formeroffice with every prospect of success. No doubt Brown was guilty, and, as Los Angelos has long been the scene of murders and other horrible crimes, the people deter mined to make a salutary example by an act of stern impartiality. The three men hanged at Tur ner's-ferry were guilty of cattle-stealing, a crime which has of late been carried to such an extent as to have required a striking example to put a stop to it. Thermo are eevoral riorsuatcalcrs iu custody, who were rescued from mobs just as they were pre paring to execute summary justice upon them. Some little time back a batch of prisoners con fined to the State prison for long terms and for life escaped, and laid a great part of the country from Contra Costa to Monterey under contribution, robbing and plundering and shooting and wound ing as they went along. Several of them were shot down in the chase that ensued. Many were wounded, and some were taken, but a few, pro bably seven or eight, escaped the pursuit ; and now and again we see it announced that they leave their marks in several places. The other day a miner "succeeded in killing one," and some one else "succeeded in wounding another." The press speaks of the proceedings as if it were relating a bear-hunt. • Contributions towards the Patriotic Fund are being made in San Francisco, and I hope they will eome to something considerable. A most horrible accident accurred at Sacramento the other day by the blowing up of one of the river steamers plying between Marysville and that city, in consequence of her racing against an oppo sition boat. I regret to learn that an English gen tleman, a Mr. Nicholson, from Manchester, lately arrived in this country, is among the sufferers. He has had his leg broken in three places, report says. Below is a short notice of the accident, from the California Chronicle : "A keen competition has for some time been con ducted on our interior waters between the California Steam Navigation Company and vatious independent coaiptuies. Running between the vessels of the rival lines naturally ensued, and the steamers have been (Liven to excessive speed. The general press pre dicted that some dreadful calamity would soon result front sludi culpable management, and the public awaited the same in fear and trembling. It La, come at last. On the 27th inst. the steamer Pearl, belonging to the Californian Steam Navigation Company, and plying between Marysville and Sacramento, was blown pieces by an excloAon of her boiler. This happened a few hundred yards below the confluence of the American and Sacramento rivers, as the vessel wal nearing the levee at Scramento city. There were 122 persons on board at the time, including the crew; of these ne ar ly 60 are known either to have been killed by the explosion, ( r drowned by being thrown into the water. Nearly 30 more have been wounded, seme very severely. Only 20 have escaped uninjured. The remainder are missing, `-^ • a*s 'g - P and It lit ?oared that moat of thaw r a scene at Sacramento, where the dead bou them in fragments, were laid out in the in the most horrible character.
