At a SPECIAL MEETING of the GENERAL COMMITTEE of the BRITISH and FOREIGN UNITA RIAN ASSOCIATION, held on Tuesday, November 8, 1849, at the Rooms of the Society in St. Swithin's-lane, Lom bard-street, to take into consideration some TRIBUTE of RESPECT to the MEMORY of the late Dr. CH ANNING, THOMAS HORNBY, Esq. (the Treasurer), in the Chair, It was Resolved, on the motion of the Rev. ROBERT ASCLAND, seconded by RICHARD TAYLOR, Esq., F.L. S., I. That this Committee have received with profound grief the melancholy tidings of the Death of the Rev. William Ellen. Charming, D.D., of Boston, in the United States of America. On the motion of the Rev. Josarts HUTTON, LL.D., seeonded by HENRY JOHN PRESTON, Esq., 2. That, in common with Dr. Channing's fellow• citizens and countrymen, and a large portion of the British People, we held in high atimiration his great and extraordinary talents, and re joiced in seeing them devoted, in all their strength and fulness, to the sacred cause of Freedom, Humanity, and Christian Truth, which he supported and adorned no less by his virtues than by his splendid intellectual endowments ; and that, amidst all Dr. Charming's invaluable exertions to enlighten.the mind, exalt the spirit, and better the condition of his age, we arc im pelled by our Christian feelings to point out and applaud espe cially his independence and courage in stemming public opinion in his own country, and pleading. with more than his wonted force of argument and fervour of language, on behalf of the long-oppressed and deeply-injured African Race. On the motion of the Rev. Enw.aan TAGART, F.S.A. and F. G. S., seconded by JAMES HINE BA LL, Esq., 3. That, whilst we feel that it would be doing wrong to the Catholic spirit of Dr. Channing, who ►poke and wrote for the World and for Posterity, to claim him as the property of any existing sect, we cannot forbear recordin. , our gratitude to the Father of Light, who, in the course of his Providence, qualified and disposed this distinguished Philanthropist to embrace, avow, and defend that form of the religion of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, which, as Unitarian Chri)tians, we derive from the Holy Scriptures, and believe to be eminently con ducive to enlightened Piety and sound Morality, and to all the best and highest interests of the Human Species. THOMAS HORNBY, Chairman. EDWARD TAGART, Secretary._ SERVIA. A notice of this province, as regards its:population, position, and means of defence, will not beponsidered inopportune, at a moment when its peace is,threatened to he disturbed by rival interests. .Servia, one of the leading provinces of European Turkey, extends about 190 miles in length, by about 100 in breadth, its superficial area being computed at 19,000 square miles. The Danube and Saave wash its borders on the north, separating it from the Aus trian dominions : the Turkish territory of Nyssa, the Sangiak of Sophia, and Albania on the south ; the east finds it hounded by Bulgaria, and the west by Bosnia. The aspect of the country is highly mountainous. On the west it is covered by ramifications of the Dinaric Alps; an extension of the range of the Balkan skirts it on the east and south ; the chain known by the name of the Haiduka mountains being the eastern most. Plains of a large and ample expanse incline towards its northernmost borders, while the river Morava, which traverses the country from south to north, runs through a wide and open valley. The variety of its mountains, hills, and valleys, and the wild nature of its forest scenery and desert heaths ren der it a highly picturesque country. Cotton thrives in its warmer valleys, and its soil produces abundantly all the grains, with flax, hemp, and tobacco. The chief resources of Servia, for export, are wool, skins, a spirit made of prunes (of which a great deal is sent to Hungary), and swine,which are bred in the forests with very little care, and left to feed on acorns. They are of a diminutive species, covered with hair rather than bristles, but amazingly numerous, and so easy to rear that they constitute a main pp_tooll of the Sc_rvian!s wealth: The Mahuractilies'of the country are con fined to inferior cottons, woollens, and coarse hard ware. British goods are as yet little known there, having been limited to small supplies from Trieste, through the Austrian territories ; the opening of the steam navigation, on the Danube, will, however, greatly for ward this, without doubt. _ With regard to the character of the Servian race, they are pronounced to be brave and hardy. Inferior, at present, to the European Turks in intelligence, manners, and general humanity, they are nevertheless far superior to them in activity and industry; while they offer, in the very independence of their character, the finest material for the silent operation of peace and civilisation. They profess the Greek faith. The population of Servia is stated to be about half a million— a comparatively thin population, arising out of the devastating wars which have from time to time visited it. With regard to the appearance of the Servians, travellers have observed a great resemblance between them and the natives of the Swiss Highlands. Of the country generally, it may be said, that it is in a state of progress. In addition to the great improve ment of steam-navigation, Prince Milosch lately opened a wide road across Servia, from Nyssa on the frontiers of Roumili to Belgrade. Among other signs of progress, elementary schools have been established in the various districts. In Servia also, every able bodied man is a soldier, and has his own arms. Servia, by its settlement of affairs since 1830, pays a fixed amount of tribute to the Porte, which is yearly de livered by the Prince into the hands of the Pacha. The natives Of Servia are allowed to trade all over the Ottoman empire, when furnished with Servian passports. The principal towns of Servia are-1. Semendria, or Sant Andriga, situated at the confluence of the Jessava with the Danube, a fortified town with about 12,000 inhabitants, and the residence of the Arch bishop-primate of Servia, and the place of assembly of the Senate. 2. Belgrade. 3. Zabatz, or Scha bacz, near the Saave, a fortified town. 4 . Usicza, near the borders of Bosnia, a town of 6,C00 inhabi tants, carrying on a considerable trade. 5. Vallievo, a place much frequented for its markets. 6. Kragoje watz, a small town in the centre of Servia, where a diet of the representatives of Servia proclaimed, in 1830, Milosch and his heirs Princes of Servia. The Superior Court of Justice of the Principality sits at Kragojewatz, which is also the common residence of the Prince. As Belgrade may be considered the key of the country, and the first place at which military opera tions would commence in case of the outbreak of those hostilities which appear to be threatened, this fortress requires to be particularised : Belgrade is by the Servians called Abba Graaca, by the Turks Darol Dshishad, or the House of the Holy War. It stands about two miles south-east of Seralin, at the junction of the Saave with the Danube, and on the right bank of both these rivers. " These two majestic streams, blending their waters at this point," f says Frickel, " expand into what might be mista ken or the ocean itself, and the spot where the Saave pours itself into the Queen of Europe an r ivers is clearly perceptible from the diversity of the tints. Belgrade was founded by Dushan ' King of Servia , in the year 1372, and is divided int o four quarters, the most conspicuous of which is the Citadel, which forms the centre of the town, and is constructed on an ac clivity,abTotbiteafihrustnudbr jeedetfesettbhaitgmh,ejeuttttbine ey go e ut un intothe Danube. enter ing the fortress are the arsenal and magazines erected by the Austrians during the last century , when Belgrade was in their p o ssession. The garrison, at present, is said to be of the mos t miserable description, it being the Pacha's troops interest to maintain as few as possible, and at as low a cost as practicable. In all there are three ditches to it, the one within the other, besides mines and bomb-proof casemates. Belgrade contains the palace of the Greek Bishop, fourteen mosques, the fish and other markets, an arsenal, spacious barracks, and the custom-house. The northern and eastern sides of it are protected by a ruinous wall of earth, eight feet in height, the two outlets through which are protected by wooden towers. It is much more strongly fortified to the south, in which direction is a leads hy a to vCeroynsta soli d ntple. M o re immediately to Constantinople. stout wall of masonry an d brickwork : this wall is or namented gate, opening upon the road the south-west that of the citadel runs a long range of suburbs, beyond which is the Itascian, or Servian town, and the Palanka, a further line of suburbs. Independently of the Tur kish garrison, which sel dom exceeds fiv e or six thousa nd men, the inhabitants of Belgrade do not at present amount to more than twenty thousand.

If the Corporation Reform Bill has done nothing else for us, it has given us a very able Tory instead of the bigoted imbeciles who were produced by the old self-elective system. Several apposite remarks were made on this point by Mr. C. F. Barker, a newly-elected Liberal, who spoke in terms of well-deserved commendation of the present Mayor. , and flri hu sh rsd li a b y e , rt b ie y s T H E LIBERATOR. —The ch am p ion .ol o i T is th e t o m b a e y o entertained in ne nT lN o r N a v t n e Waterford, Burgesses of that ancient city. From Waterford, we are enabled to state, he goes to Birr. On IVednesday, th e 16th, he proceeds to Liverpool, and will attend a great Re peal meeting to be held there on . the following day. He has declined an invitation to dine with the Liver pool Repealers, t his doing so should interfere with a dinner about to be given in support of th e C a th o li c schools of that town. After his return from Liver pool, which will be on Friday the 18th inst., he will remain in Dublin, and attend the Association meet ing on the 21st; after which he goes to Derrynane directly, where he spends a month or six weeks.— Limerick Reporter. Among the deaths recently announced i s t h at o f Thomas Grady, Esq., formerly Chairman of this county, and a gentleman of , commanding literary talent. His production, the Nosegay," will long be regarded as one of the ablest satires penned in modern times. It is remarkable that within a very few months, the writer and one of the p r i nc ipal figurantes in that effusion have paid Nature's debt; and the individual against whom it was written died but a short time ago. Mr. Grady had been a volun tary exile from his native land, at Boulogne-ser-flier for some years.—Linzerich Reporter. THE BIRMINGHAM CONFERENCE. ---At a mee ti ng of different sections of Reformers and Charti s t s h e ld a t rooms in the Adelphi last night, it was unanimously resolved that they should join in sending delegates to the Birmingham Conference.

It at that tune appeared that not only had the great bulk of thee records been much injured by being kept in damp and ill venti lated vaults and rooms, but that mangy , valuable on account of their antiquarian and histor cal character, had surreptitiously got into general circulation, and were to he found in several booksellers' shops in the metropolis. It is worthy of remark that the injuries which the records sustained from the w retched places in which they were deposited attracted notice as far back as the middle of the sixteenth century. Between 156.5 and 1571 the Judges of the Common Pleas and the Barons of the Exchequer presented a petie on to the Lord Treasurer and the Chancellor cf the Exchequer, stating that the records of the Common Pleas, depo sited in the " Treasury House," had of " long time" received great detriment from the " lowness and dankishness : of the Treasury House," the same being also oftentinies surrounded and ovarflown by- the Thames at spring -tide, and in like manner "by mean s of rain descending through the gutters, rc ofs, and floors." _ _ . What measures were adopted, in conseqr tisee of this petition, it does not appear; and if any repairs -were made, still no effectual means were t sken for preventing a recurrence of the mischief. The more recent exposure of the evil has, as already intimated, been attended with a happier result. A portion of the buildings at present in the course of erectien for the accommodation of the two Houses of Pas-Hz - anent will, when be used as a goner.al depository for the reception and safe custody of the public re cords, pursuant to the authority contained in the Act of the 2d of Victoria. In a Report, dated th e 6th of July, 1840, Mr. Barry, the architect, states that he considers that the space which may be appropriated in the new building for the reception of recor Is, with out occasioning inconvenience to the establisl anent, or any alteration of the design of the exterior of the building, includes the whole of the Vitctoria Tower, a portion of the south front adjoining the Royal ves tibule, portions above and below this vestibule, and over the Royal staircase, together with the whole of the basement story between the wings of the river front. Mr. Barry then, after entering into further details, proceeds to state that, " the whole of the ac commodation for records, as well as the offices, work rooms, and rooms for resident officers of the Record establishment, would be perfectly fire-proof, entirely independent of the offices and other accomn iodation of the Houses of Parliament, capable of being thoroughly lighted, and warmed, and ventilated, and convenient both as to external and internal access. The fir st-class records may be (as Mr. Barry considers) conv(miently arranged in the several stories of the tovrer, where they will be effectually separated from the Test of the Record establishment, and thereby admit; of being placed completely under the control of '1 e superior officer of the Record establishment; and. :as no other materials will be employed in the construe ion of the tower than brick, stone, iron, and slate, there would not be the slightest risk of the destruction of the records by fire. The second-class record: s would, for the same reason, be equally safe, and as completely under the control of the superior officer as those cf the first-class." In the meantime the records have been removed from the damp holes, in which they were rotting, to other places, fitted for their temporary. reception, where, under the inspection of competent persons, they are being repaired and classified, so as to admit of easy reference. The second Report of the Deputy keeper of Public Records supplies some interesting particulars upon this subject. As the Tower already contained the papers of the Court of Admiralty for various periods, from 1542 to 1828, this repository was considered the most proper place of deposit for the papers of the late Navy Board, and a large portion of them has, accordingly, been removed to a safe and convenient space in the White Tower, formerly used as Flamstead's observatory. The documents thus removed, consist of two classes, namely, books and correspondence and miscellaneous papers. The first include 207 volumes called Letter Books. The second class consist of Several thousand volumes of original letters, dis patches, surveys, warrants, and petitions, from the year 1642 to the year . 1794. These papers, especially the earlier portions of them, are of great historical value, containing the most important and authentic materials for the history of the Royal Navy. Nine large chests of letters from the Treasury, Secretaries of State, Board of Ordnance, Admiralty, Navy Board, War-office, Commander-in-Chief's of fice, Horse Guards, and Victualling-office, from 1794 to 1818. Five large chests filled with miscellaneous letters, from 1794 to 1818. An arrangement is in progress for removing into the Tower a further portion of the naval documents remaining in Deptford dockyard. An inventory has been made by the senior assistant keeper of the records deposited in the Wakefield tower, which consist of the various rolls, such as the Parliament rolls, the rolls of pleas in Parliament, the Coronation rolls. These documents extend from the 30th of Henry to the 16th of Edward IV., and amount to about 2,855 rolls, containing about 64,182 membranes, schedules, and pieces. The inventory contains the dates and titles of the records, and full particulars of their state and condition, pointing out what repairs are needful ; thus constituting not only an inventory by which searches and inspections will be facilitated, but also a survey of the records. Inventories are in progress of the privy seals, pri vate deeds, papal bulls, and other records, also in the Wakefield tower, and portions of the inquisitions post raortem and other escheats have been re-arranged. The last mentioned documents, namely, the inquisi tions, are of great value, and frequently consulted. They are arranged between the blank leaves of books prepared for the purpose, :and may be consulted with case. In the office of the Rolls' Chapel are contained the portions of the Chancery records, most frequently consulted for practical purposes, of which the majority in bulk are in the English language, and these are constantly increasing. Here are deposited the charter and patent rolls, containing all grants of lands, offices, dignities, and corporate and other privileges, from the reign of Richard the Third ; the close rolls from the same reign, upon which are enrolled bargains, sales, and other conveyances of lands between private indi viduals ; specification rolls, upon which, as their name imports, the specifications of inventors are enrolled; memorials of life annuities, enrolments of statutes, and other classes of records all transmitted to the Rolls from the Chancery Enrolment-office, the Six Clerks'-office, the Petty Bag-office, and the Parlia ment-office. The largest mass of records deposited in the Carl ton House Ride consist of plea, issue, and judgment rolls, and rolls of pleas of land, beginning with Henry VIII. They contain not merely the pleadings between the parties, but also:the final judgment of the Court. These rolls, sometimes called the " Common Rolls," besides the value appertaining to all the re cords of the principal Courts of Law, are peculiarly important from the evidence which they include re- Ihting to real property. These documents were origi nally placed in the ancient treasury of the Common Pleas, annexed to Westminster Hall, from whence, .when the building containing the Treasury was pulled down, they were removed in 1831 to the King's Mews, and upon the demolition of that building, also, they were removed to Carlton Ride. Upon examina tion it was found that 304 of these rolls were in various stages of decay. Some of them are in a state of rapid decomposition, which can only be stoppe d by cutting off the decaying portions ; others are attacked by a species of dry rot, which causes the membranes to crumble into fragments when they are touched, so that it is hardly possible to consult a roll in this state without losing a portion of the record. These injuries, which partly date from a remote period, app ear to have been occasioned, to a considerable extent, by the action of water. It appears from memoranda preserved in the office, that in 1735 the Thames rose so high as to flood the dark corner of the Treasury in which the rolls of the reign of Elizabeth were deposited. Another flood took place in 1795, which also did much damage, and it seems probable, from the appearance of the rolls, not only that other inundations took place, but that damp was admitted into the Treasury from above. In those rolls which are falling into fragments the repair is an operation of great delicacy, requiring each membrane to he inserted between tracing paper, an operation which will occupy an experienced workman for two or three hours in covering a single membrane. Others require mending and stitching, and, with the exception of the rolls later than the reign of James 11. (which are in covers sufficiently strong and sound), need leathern covers for the purpose of preserving them from dust and injury. Connected with the issue and plea rolls of the Court are the documents calledDoggett Rolls," or Doggett of issue and judgment rolls. These rolls contain brief notices of the nature of the action, and the names of the parties, to which is added the number of the roll, and, in the absence of more perfect calen dars, they arc the keys to ,the records, and the best means of reference to their contents. These rolls, which extend from the reign of Henry VIII., have been ticketed and arranged in boxes, and are acces sible Without difficulty. The assistant-keeper of the Exchequer records in the Augmentation-office, the Rev. Joseph Hunter, has made an inventory of the records, upon which he has operated, and which belong to a class most frequently consu7ted, namely, the subsidy rolls, and the rolls of tallages, cavercages, scutages, and aids, from the reign of Ih/try IV. to the close of the reign of Philip and Mary. These records of taxation are an essential ad junct to the proceedings of Parliament ; and besides their ay.plication to the history of political events, and of thr.i progress of the Constitution, they are made up of, statistical facts of the highest importance. _r_hey afford accurate data for calculating the amount of the population, as well as the value of the land and capital of England, and, taken in connection with Domesday Book, the 'great rolls of the Exchequer, and some certain classes of the miscellaneous records, would enable any competent inquirer to carry out the history of the national wealth (as far as the before mentioned elements are concerned) from the era of . the Conquest, with a degree of completeness and ac curacy which could not he attained with respect to any other community in Christendom. The skill and industry exhibited by Mr. Black, the assistant-keeper of the Pell records, 6:c., in the office of the Comptroller of the Exchequer, are particularly noticed in the report. It appears that when Mr. Black first commenced his employment, he found the books, rolls, bundles, and loose parchments and papers (which had been brought from the vaults in Somerset-house), lying in heaps upon the floors of the rooms, and piled in some places almost up to the ceiling. The first operation performed was the arrangement and description of Papal bulls, correspondence, ex tracts from dispatches, and other documents of State, which had been selected by the chief clerk of the Comptroller, and the contents of which were desired to be known by the Commissioners on State Papers. Brief chronological catalogues were made of these papers, which have been enlarged by later discoveries, and they now display a very valuable series of original Papal briefs and Imperial and Venetian ducal letters, from 1513 to 1527, all in vellum; and original cor respondence with Cardinal Wolsey, and other State papers, from 1513 to 1529, amounting altogether to 161 documents. The nature of these documents will appear from the description given of them in the catalogue. We take the first five in the order of their dates : " From Pope Leo X. to King Henry VIII. ex plaining the Pope's motives for restoring two cardi nals, 27 June, 1513. " From the same to the same, recommending the Pope's relative, Raphael de Medicis, a Florentine merchant, to the King's favour as a discreet and trusty person, 10 September, 1513. "From the same to the same, in favour of the Pope's Nuncio, Balthasar, on his way to Scotland, 20 Sep tember, 1513. " From the same to the same, about negotiations with the Emperor, 19 December, 1513. " From the same to the same, in answer to his re quests for an indulgence to the Church of Durham, and for a favour to Thomas (Wolsey) Lord Almoner, 7 February, 1514." The masses of books, papers, and parchments were fbund by the assistant-keeper in the utmost confusion and dirt, in the same state as when they were taken out of the boxes and sacks brought from the vault. The books have required much of the attention of the assistant-keeper. They consist of two classes; the first of which, the Pell books, are of great value, and help to fill up or complete some of the series of Pell books which were heretofore brought from Westmin ter Hall to Whitehall-yard. These include the de clarations of accounts made by the under-treasurers, together with the books of the household and wardrobe. A second class of books are those of the auditor of the receipt of the Exchequer, and amongst them are many others, such as patent-books, crown-lease books, and others relating to the territorial possessions of the Crown, also forming part of the auditor's records, or of those of the Clerk of the Fells. Mr. Black has prepared catalogues of the Pell books, and auditor's books, which are executed with great care, and will be the means of bringing into notice a very important class of documents hitbertoconcealed from public view. IRELAND. POST-OFFICE COMMUNICATION. The people of Cork have for some time been com plaining, with good ground, of the slowness of com munication between that great trading city and Dublin. This defect, it appears, is owing to a lower rate of Mileage being paid by Government for Cork than is allowed for Belfast, Limerick, or Waterford, all places of ihferior importance to the former. This strange anomaly, it will be seen, from the following reply. of the Premier to Mr. F.' Murphy, one of the Members for Cork, is not likely to be rectified at present, the state of the Irish Post-office revenue pre cluding the possibility of any new arrangement. " Whitehall, Nov. 5. " Sir,—l beg your pardon for having allowed so long an interval to elapse without the acknowledgment of a letter which you addressed to me some time since on the subject of the Post-office communication be tween Dublin and Cork. " The cause of the delay was my wish to communi cate personally with the Postmaster-General upon it. " I have this day seen Lord Lowther, and have in quired into the facts of the case. An official report upon them will very shortly be made by him to the Treasury, a copy of which will be forwarded to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland. " With every wish on my part to increase the fa cility of Post-office communication in Ireland, and to consult the convenience of a trading community so respectable and important as that of the city of Cork, I cannot, I fear, encourage the expectation, in the present state of the Post-office net revenue in Ireland, that the suggestions conveyed in your letter can be adopted.—l have the honour, &c., "F. S. Murphy, Esq. " ROBERT PEEL." STORM.—This city was visited last night with one of the most tremendous gales that has blown since the memorable 6th of January, 1839.

The London mail was several hours overdue, it not having reached the Post-office until two o'clock. LATE AFFAIR OF HONOUR.--Ensign Verner, of the 47th Regiment, in a letter to the Mayo paper, denies that Lord Lucan was dissatisfied with his (Mr. Ver ner's) first note, and that his Lordship demanded an other. The first letter, it appears, was perfectly sa tisfactory to Lord Lucan. Loa]) BLAYNEY.—The neighbourhood in which this nobleman's residence in the county of Monaghan is situated has, for several days past, presented nume rous instances of deeefelt sorrow in consequence of the precarious state of his Lordship's health. In the town of Castleblayney the inhabitants have had daily meetings, attended by persons of every creed, uniting in devout prayer to the Ruler of all Wings for the restoration of health to this highly-esteemed, and by his tenantry beloved, nobleman. At the church and at the Roman Catholic chapel of that town a similar course was pursued by the congregations in attend ance on Sunday last. The authentic accounts which reached town this morning of the state of his Lord ship's health were of a somewhat more favourable nature, and the symptoms of his complaint were con sidered (in any change that had taken place from the day previous) less formidable. —Evening Mail of Wednesday. An article from Zwolle, of the 3d of this month, gives a very favourable account of the harvest, and the state of the crops in general, both with respect to quantity and quality. Rye is indeed not so abundant in quantity, but the quality is of the very best. The second crop of grass is most luxuriant, and the cows give more milk than they did in the summer. The very mild weather, too, is extremely favourable; we never had such a quantity of apples as this year. ACCIDENT TO LORD JAMES BUTLIIII.

In allusion to the procession of the Mayor pf Wa terford, the Dublin Evening Mail characteristically observes : " Yesterday was a high day for the city of Water ford—the celebration, to wit, of the political triumph which, thanks to Lord Eliot, Popery has obtained over Protestantism in our principal institutions." This sentence could not have been penned by any man alive, save only the Right Hon. Frederick Shaw, Recorder of Dublin, of whom it may be fairly written— " Essence of one mighty sense — Concentrated impudence— From earth's centre to the sea, Nature stinks of that and thee." In the history of Parliament there is no parallel for Shaw's advocacy of the third reading of the Irish Mu nicipal Corporation Bill, moved by Lord Morpeth, and opposed by Sir George Sinclair, backed by James Emerson Tennent. That audacious act was not understood until it became known that Shaw had secured his office of Recorder for life, per agreement with Mr. Solici tor-General Woulfe, afterwards Chief Baron of the Exchequer." Need we advert to the exposure which took place during the Shaw and Butt controversy, by the publication of Lord Lyndhurst's letter ? Need we point out the manner in which the Noble Lord threw the traitor overboard, by disclosing his false representations ?

THE FRENCH IN ALGA'S. D'spatches have been received by the li`hsa. ister of Waa from the Governor-General of Algeria, dated Algiers, 25th and 30th ult., and enclosing ft 'Ports from various quarters, by the commanding, offices of divisions. All that is of any importance in these 1 'ea ports is noticed at sufficient length in the dispatch& of the Governor-General for it to be unnecessary fur us to give more than the latter. The reports eonsila chiefly of dry details of affairs with hostile tribes, ini which the results were of no magnitude, but were in variably in favour of the French. In the first dispatcla of Gen. Bugeaud, dated the 25th, he says: — "The autumnal campaign is now over, and we are, able to appreciate the results of it ; but, in order to do, so, we must take a retrospective view of events. Allenr the rude checks which Abd-el-Kader experienced ins the winter and in the spring, he threw himself on they frontiers of Morocco, where he, in the first instance;, found support from tha population ; but, beaten three , times, as weii as his :auxiliaries, by 'Gen. Bedeau, and tin having no ho o f the ( sert of t?irect succour prom the Em p eror, he proceeded Kalifats of Mustapha Bert he collected the remaita s of the regular forces of the south of Telceclempta, where by General Lamoriciere during and Miloud Ben Arrach. B6l l g serious followed up closely Tansy, Sidi Embarrak, :he summer, he was however, the most unable to make any progr os. Ile put for ward,. terr ibl e rum :aces against all the tribes who should refuse to take op arms in his: favour ; and his proclamations, which were circulated. even as far as the towns in our possession, oduced great uneasiness amongst our allies, and t s. tong feeling of excitement amongst the tribes who a'aQ not made their submission. We opposed the loth:ease.? of the Emir by a menacing proclamation for the triTxs who should break their faith, and by the excessive , activity of our columns ; but the weakness of our columns, and above all, the distance, and other occu pations, prevented us from penetrating into the Moun tains of Ouanaris, between the Chelif and the Mina. There was nothing, besides, to indicate that it was there that the Emir and his lieutenants were concentrating their resources. It turned out how ever, to be from that paint that the modern Jugurtha commenced in September the campaign which he had so pompously announced. Allowing General Lamo riciere, who was seeking him at the south and south pon east of Tekedampta, to pass by, he threw him: ,if u the tribes who had submitted, on the right ban;" of the sf the Lower Chelif, and then crossing the country Flittas, where he obtained reinforcements, he Ca-rne and attacked Bordj, and the towns of Kalaa, at a dis • a tance of six leagues from Mascara. In this excursions the Emir massacred, without the least pity, the indi viduals of the submitted tribes who fell into his hands.. We could not imitate him in this horrible career, noel confined ourselves to making prisoners amongst the tribes who had broken their faith to us. General Lamoriciere, informed of the course thatAbd-el-Kader had taken, did not deem it necessary to turn away from the object he had in view—namely, to reach the numerous emigrants who had hitherto followed that chief. He wished also to lay waste the country around Teicedempta, and he reckoned on these means to bring the Emir more quickly back from Mascara • than if he went directly in sear& of him. Besides, an appointment had heen• made with certain great tribes of the Desert, and it would have been ill-judged to break it. Leaving, therefore, to General d'Arbourille, and the garrison of Mascara, the care of repulsing the inva sion, General Lamoriciere proceeded with his plans. His calculation proved just; for the Emir, being badly received by the population around Mascara, and pres singly called on by the tribe which General Lamo riciere was devastating to come to their assistance, he fell on the Sdamas who happened to be in his road. This tribe fought valiantly, and at last beat back their aggressors, who, having continued their way, fell on the foragers of General Lamoriciere, which caused the combat of the Bth, of which you know the details. Since that period we have had no news of Abd-el- Kader, but what proves that he is at a distance or unusually inactive—is that confidence has returned to the whole country. This is what General d'Ar bouville writes word, who has returned to Mostaga nem, after having scoured the still insubmissive country of the Flittas. Thus Abd-el-Kader's cam paign between the Chelif and the Mina has com pletely failed, and has given another proof of his inabi lity to recover power. With the exception of a few tribes or fractions of tribes on the central Chelif and among the Flittas, the whole country has remained faithful to France. We must not, however, sleep over this success. The Emir, supported by the Ka byles of the Ouanaris, situate between the Chelif and the Mina, in a country which it will be difficult for us to attack during the winter, can annoy exceedingly the districts that have submitted. We shall not re main inactive, and in order to be able to penetrate between the two rivers, I am urging on the construc tion of a bridge over the Mina. But whilst Alxi-el- Kader was endeavouring to retrieve his aftairs in the east of the province of Oran, I took away from him the east of the province of Algiers, and his Kalifat Ben-Salem was overturned. At the same time Gen. Changarnier procured the submission of the province of Tittery, which still counted some insurgent tribes. Col. Saint-Arnaud was ruining on the lower Oued- Fodda the insubmissive tribes which had taken up arms on the appearance of Abd-el-Kader. To sum up, the autumnal campaign leaves us in the following posi tion :—From the foot of the Jurjura to a line drawn from the mouth of the Oued-Ruma in the Chelif, as far as Taza and the Desert, the whole countryhas sub mitted, and carries on at present trade with Algiers. The same is the case with all the country between the Mina, the frontier of Morocco, the sea, and the Desert. The war, therefore, is concentrated between the Chelif and the Mina, on a square of about 25 leagues of coast. But as there are about 150 leagues from the Jurjura lo the frontier of Morocco, it follows that Abd-er-Kader has lost five-sixths of his states, all his forts and war depots, his permanent army, and, what is still worse, the influence attached to his name even in 1840." In a second dispatch, dated Algiers, Oct. 25, the Governor-General says :—" The state of affairs re mains the same as at the departure of the last mail— great commerce, great security, great activity. We have received from Grasse 39 families, whom we have installed at the village of Cheragas. They . are healthy and strong, and appear to be fit for farming. At twelve o'clock to-day arrived at Algiers Alahy-el- Din and all the chiefs from the East. The day after to-morrow I shall confer the investiture upon them." On October 30, General Bugeaud writes :—" All the eastern chiefs (of the ex-government of the Ka lifat of Ben Salem) who arrived at Algiers on the 25th, were brought by Mahy el Din. These personages and their suite amounted to 124 horsemen. The 26th was employed in organising that government, and, on the 27th, all the chiefs nominated went to the Palace of the Government, preceded by a hand of music, and bearing the colours which I presented to the Kalifat in the name of the King. After my address, and the answer of the Kalifat, I gave the investiture, announc ing that it would require the sanction of his MajestY. All the Arabs appeared to be deeply impressed with the importance of the act they had solemnised. Their manners, words, and countenances expressed a loyalty which gave me confidence in the solidity of our go- Ivernment in the east. On the same day all t he chiefs departed, full of confidence, to take possession of their offices." -- - COLLEGE or SURGEONS.—An announcement ap peared in one of our Contemporaries last week, and has since been copied into sever al of the daily papers, to the effect that the Counci l of the College of Sur geons had come to the resolution of admittinga to to exa • =nation all who presented themselves before Jnuary, even although they might not have complied wi the regulations of the College as to their professional education. This is a mistake ; no new regulations have either been made, or are contemplated. But, as here tofore),all are admitted to ex amination who have com plied with the regulations which were in force at the time they pursued their 'professional education. if , for example, any one applying for his diploma could show that he compl eted his studies five years ago, but had been prevented b y accidental circumstances from c oming to the Col le g e sooner, he would only be re quired to have complied with the regulations which then existed, and not with those which have since been made.—Medical Gazette. in making a new road to the southward of t n he en—ga ENLARGEMENT OF WOOLWICH DOCKTA F presentg o e a r some time past a body of labourers have bee RD. for r °ad _ th e ' old il r e o h a d , w ; h t e h n e latter com pleted, llroolilcvhill abnedsuGbsrteiteuntedwichai upof ld will then be broken enclosed, with several acres of land, as a partthe Dockyard.
