MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was more business doing in Cotton at Liverpool on Saturd a y, at proviout rates. The sales, including 1,200 for export, were nearly 6,000 bales, and include 4,000 American, at 40. to -IV.; 150 Egyptian, at 51d. to girl ; 1,000 Surat, at 31-1. to 41.; and 60 Sea Island, at lU d,to 11d. per lb.—Railway Shares further &celled, and very little business was done. The Corn Market is heavy today, and there is no Positive change in price. Aon the reent arrivals of speci are seventy-se von uoees m g of treasure from Canton for the e Oriental Bank. The arrival of the Overland Mail from India is rather a nxiously looked for, and we find that the prevalent f eeling is, that we shall have favourable intelligence. The disposition of Louis Napoleon to cultivate Friendly relations with England,ailbrds the best possible guarantee for the peace of Europe, and if only seconded by the nation at large, the ambition or recklessness of -other states may be fairly set at defiance. We have great Leasure, therefore, in hearing of repeated instances of indly feeling manitested by the President towards English merchants and others with whom he was per -80„ nally acquainted when here. It is stated that Mr. zates, of the firm of Baring Brothers, has received a very pressing invitation. We see nothing in the foreign accounts that materially change, the impression excited by the information re ceived last week, viz., that affairs on the continent are in a most uncertain state, and .that although there may be favourable issue to the existing difficulties, it is quite 'uncertain what will be the result. The Belgian mail brings intelligence that the States General had officially intimated that the Prince of Orange would be likely to succeed the late King on the throne of Holland, although it is known that his Royal Ilighness has evinced no desire to reign. A letter te eeived at Brussels even states that the Prince will be requested to abdicate in favour of his son. The English Stock Market is exceedingly dull, and there has not been any speculation going on. A little money stock was bought soon after the commence ment of business, by one or two influential brokers, and Transfer, a little firmness, the rates being 901 for and 90;1 for Time. There has been a decline si e r 'oe, however, and 901 1 are the present values. Ex chequer -bills at lid. are quoted 365. to 395. premium. ...The Foreign Securities have been rather fluctuating.

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY. Although the arrivals of English Wheat for our markets since this day se'nnight have been on the in crease, compared with those reported in the preceding week, they proved small, the time of year considered, and of very middling quality, especially the samples re ceived from Essex and Kent. The supply of English Barley was moderate, .that of all other articles of home produce trifling. The receipts from Ireland and Scot land chiefly consisted of a few cargoes of Oats. The foreign imports fell off to some extent: they comprised 12,140 quarters of Wheat; 6.124 ditto of Barley; 5,963 ditto of Oats; 490 ditto of Rye; 483 ditto of Beans; 364 ditto of Peas; 646 ditto of Tares; 22 ditto of Lin seed; 92 ditto of Mustard Seed; 30 ditto of sundry seeds; 3,609 sacks, and 1,000 barrels of Flour—the former chiefly from France, the latter from the United States. Fresh up this morning, from Kent, Essex, Cambridge shire, &c., a very moderate supply of Wheat came to hand, coastwise, as well as by land carriage and sample. The stands exhibited a very small show of parcels of both red and white, nevertheless the quantity wa3 fully adequate to meet the wants of the millers, who purchased with extreme caution. The factors being unwilling to accept any reduction, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was excessively heavy, at barely, but at nothing quotable, beneath the prices paid en this day ss'nnight. At the close of the market a total clearance of the samples was not effected. An immense quantity of foreign Wheat was again on offer. The importers were not quite so anxious to sell as last week. The sale for that article was, however, extremely heavy, at unaltered quotations. Large parcels of Wheat might have been purchased on lower terms. Floating cargoes of Wheat andother.foreign Grain:were nominal in value, from want;of buyera. The supply of foreign Barley being on the increase, trade was ex tremely dull. Malting, as well as grinding and distilling samples moved off in retail quantities at last week's cur rencies. For Malt there was scarcely any demand. The few parcels disposed of were at last week's prices. Notwithstanding that the supply of Oats was limited, that article met a dull enquiry, at about stationary prices. Most of the dealers are waiting further arrivals from abroad, ere they got into stock. All kinds of Beans were very dull, and inferior qualities ruled a shade lower. Peas moved off slowly, at last Monday's quotations. Indian Corn and meal neglected. No change took place in the value of Flour, the demand for which article was very Leavy.

Since this day se'nnight the importations of foreign stock have been on a liberal scale. The total arrival into London has amounted to 1,729 head, being an increase of 34 head compared with the preceding week. At the corresponding period in 1848 we received 1,351 head, or less by 37it than the supply noticed above. The arrivals at the same time in 1847 were only 729 head; hence it follows that, in the past week, there were received in the port of London 1,000 head more than in the year last mentioned. The following is a statement of the ports from whence the supplies have been derived:— IMPORTS INTO LONDON. From Beasts. Sheep. Calvet.

At the outports the arrivals from Holland have been on a very moderate scale. We have frequently called attention to the necessity of having a strict watch kept upon the foreign stock on arrival into London and else where,:in order that unwholesome meat should not be dis posed of. Without imputing negligence to any party, we may observe, that Friday last several Foreign Sheep were exhibited for sale here in a very diseased state. Their condition will be best understood when we inti mate that the wool had fallen from their backs in large patches. In point of fact, they were completely rotten, and ought to have been destroyed. An arrival, consisting of 85 Oxen and 20 Sheep, has taken place from Ireland, by sea, since our last Within the last few days, there have arrived in the me tropolis 347 cases of preserved meat from Sydney. Not withstanding the length of the voyage, it has come to hand in fair condition. It will, we understand, be shortly submitted to public competition. Similar arri vals are expected from Adelaide. We perceive that Mr. Miles, M.P., drew the attention of the House of Com mons, on Thursday evening, to that portion of our last Monday's report, in which we alluded to the inaccuracies contained in the official returns of the imports of foreign cattle into the United Kingdom. A mere glance at the Customs' lists will show them to be incorrect, and we trust Government will publish more accurate ones in future. Our market, to•day, was very moderately supplied with each kind of fat stock ; but, from the various heme grazing districts, the fresh- receipts of Beasts were sea sonably large, and in excess of those noticed on this day se'nnight, both as to number aad quality. The dead markets being heavily supplied with their last week's arrivals, and the attendance of both town and country buyers small, the Beet trade here, this morning, was again excessively heavy, at a decline, in the quotations paid on Monday last of 2d per 81bs. A few very prime lots produced 3s Bd, but the general top figure for Beef did not exceed 3s 6d per 81bs, at which, a clearance was not effected. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam bridgeshire, we received nearly 1,900 short horns and Scots, with a few homebreds ; from the western and midland counties, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, short horns, and Irish Beasts ; from other parts of England, 400 of various breeds ; and, from Scotland, 200 horned and polled Scots. The numbers of Sheep were again on the increase and at least two-thirds of them were above the average quality. There were nearly 7,000 Sheep more in the market than at the corresponding period in 1848. For all breeds the demand was heavy in the extreme, and, to effect sales, prices receded 2d per 81bs from those of Monday last. The highest general figure for the best Downs, in the wool, was 4s 4d, out of the wool, 3s 10d per 8 lbs. About a third of the supply was shorn. The few Lambs on offer realised from 6s 6d to 7s per 8 lbs. Calves, the supply of which was very moderate, moved off slowly at drooping prices. In Pigs next to nothing was doing. In the quotations no material change took place. Per Slbs. to7s s. d. to I. d.

A considerable increase took place in the arrivals of country-killed meat for these markets last week, the total supply exceeding 5,000 carcases, chiefly of Mutton and Pork. The supplies on offer killed in the metro polis having been large, and the weather mild, the general demand has ruled extremely heavy, and prices have in most instances had a downward tendency, From Hamburgh six baskets of meat have come to hand; and about 500 carcases of foreign meat slaughtered in Lon have been on sale.

A slight increase has taken place in the arrivals of potatoes coastwise, at the waterside, in the past week. Generally speaking, the supplies have come to hand in good condition for the time of year, and found buyers at fully late rates. The foreign importations have been again extensive, viz. -3,005 bags from Rotterdam; 80 bags from Amsterdam; 5 bags and 140 tons from Bre men; 113 sacks, 107 tons, and 150 bags from Antwerp; 139 bags from Calais; 58 bags from Gh en t ; 23 0 tons from Rouen; 70 tons from Gravelines; 59 tons from Louvain; and 12 bags from Harlingen—forming a total quantity of about 1,000 tons. Foreign potatoes are a slow sale, and last week's prices are barely supported. Per Ton. Per Ton. York. Regents 100 s to 140 s Kent & Ess.

The imports of Wool into London last week were 158 bales from Hamburgh, 49 bales from the Cape, and 148 bales from Sydney.

SAMUEL DRIVER AND J. DELANY.—These men, both from the vicinity of Gray's Inn-road, met this morning on the Seven Sister's-road, Holloway, to decide their race of 120 yards, for five pounds aside, in the presence of about 100 spectators. They have ran twice before the same distance, and each having proved victorious, this race was decided on to prove which could claim the superiority. After the usual waste of time in getting ready the men both showed at the scratch in racing trim; Driver looking all his friends could wish, Delany rather too thin, but with a smile of confidence. There was not much betting on the ground, it being at evens, Driver for choice. After about a dozen false starts tbey both got off, Delany with a lead of a yard and a halt; this distance ho kept till fifty yards had been covered, Driver here got up the " steam" and caught his man, when Delany by some means slipped, and rolled on the ground with great force, leaving his opponent to run in at his leisure. Upon picking Delany up it was ascer tained that he had cut his arm in two places, and bruised his knee, besides receiving other serious injuries. In EL AND. DUBLIN, SUNDAY MORNING.—My letter of yesterday will have prepared you for the following piece of in telligence, which I find in a second edition of the Down patrick Recorder of last night:— " Accounts have just reached us that at Crossgar, within four and a half miles of this town, where those who walk in procession on Patrick's Day rendez voused, a violent collision took place between them and the Orangemen. One policeman and one woman have been shot, and several persons wounded. One of the magistrates, Mr. W. R. Anketell, has re ceived a severe wound over the eye, from the blow of a stone. A horse policeman, who has just reached town, for a reinforcement of dragoons, states that Mr. Anketell's wound was bleeding pro fusely, and that fire-arms were being discharged in quick succession. Several lodges, accompanied with flags and music, passed through this port about eleven o'clock to-day, on their way to Crossgar. Some slight rioting took place as the last of the lodges were passing. A drum was broken and several stones thrown after the processionists, and this in the town where the majesty of the law is at present being vindicated; Chief Baron Pigot still occupying his seat, finishing the business in the Crown Court. The mail bags are just being made up. DUBLIN, SUNDAY EVENING.—The northern mail not arriving until an hour after this dispatch is posted you can have no further particulars of the conflict between the Orangemen and Roman Catholics near Down Patrick until to-morrow morning. _ Mr. Fagan, one of the Members for the city of Cork, writes to his constituents to inform them that, according to his belief, the landlords of Ulster will succeed in their unitation, and that an income-tax, instead of a rate in aid, will be the result. THE LITERARY SEASON.—NEWS FOR THE READ ING SOCIETIES.—The present year has already opened with many interesting new publications, and of a higher character than have appeared for some time previously. Macaulay's admirable work; Mackay's " Western World," lately referred to in the House of Commons as a text book on the subject; " Frontenac," a narrative poem by Street, reminding us of the best days of Scott and Campbell; Tyndale's " Sardinia;" Schiller's " Cor respondence with Korner," one of the most interesting pictures of the literary life ever published, presenting us at the same time with a resume of European literature for nearly halt a century. To these valuable accessions to our literature we may now add Herman Melville's new work, " Mardi, and a Voyage Thither." Herman Melville's former books, " Typee" and " Omoo," have placed the reputation of this most interesting writer among the most popular authors of our day. Mr. Bell's (the biographer of Canning) " Great Civil War in England," from the celebrated Fairfax manuscripts; Mr. Herbert's Frank Forrester and his Friends," con taining the adventures of this keen sportsman in the wild forests and prairies of America; and for those who can enjoy a good fiction, there will be published in a few days the celebrated historical novel 1812, from the German, by Miss Norman. This story, which pre sents us with the spirit-stirring narrative of the French invasion of Russia, is one of the ablest of modern fictions. and will be read with interest as an admirable romance, but as one of the most graphic accounts of the wonder ful events of that great campaign, which hurled from his imperial throne the mightiest conqueror of the modern world.—Evening Paper, AN ACTOR'S FIRST IMPRESSION OF EDMUND KEAN. —A veteran of the stage, who witnessed the debut of Ed mund Kean in London, thus describes the impression he received oh that occasion :—" A party of us," says be, " were prevailed on to go and see a young actor, from the country, attempt the part of Shylock, at Drury-lane Theatre, and, as we expected, add another to the list of failures. When we got there not more than fifty persons were in the pit, and there was that sense of previous damnation which a thin house usually inspires. When the new candidate came on there was a lightness in his step, an easy buoyancy and self-possession, different from the elation, dogged, gaol-delivery-look of the tradi tional'Shylock of the stage. A vague expectation was excited, and all went on well; but it was not till he came to that part when, leaning on his staff, he tells the tale of Jacob and his flock, with the garrulous ease of old age, and animation of spirit that seems borne back to the olden time, and to the privileged example in which be exults, that it was plain a man of genius bad lighted upon the boards of Drury. To those who had the spirit and candour to hail the lucky omen, the recollection of that moment, of startling yet welcome surprise, will al ways afford them pride and satisfaction. After a lapse of some time, I wished to see whether the first impres sion would still keep true touch,' and I was not disap pointed. Besides the excellence of the impassioned parts of Kean's acting in Shylock, there was a flexibility and indefiniteness about it, like a figure with a landscape background; his voice swelled and deepened at the men tion of his sacred tribe and ancient law, and he dwelt delighted on any digression to distant times and places, as a relief to his vindictive and rooted purpose. Of all Kean's performances, I thought this the most faultless and least mannered, always excepting his Othello, which was equally perfect, and twenty times more powerful. Kean succeeded so well in the part in which he came out, that, with the diffidence of the abilities of others so natural to us, it was concluded he could do nothing else; and he was kept in it so long that he nearly failed in Richard, until the dying scene bore down all opposition by an irresistible spell, as if some preternatural being had taken posses sion of his form, and made the enthusiasm the greater from the uncertainty that had before prevailed. Sir Giles Overreach stamped his excellence with the players and the town, and Othello with the critics." Weekly Dispatch. METROPOLITAN BENEFIT SOCIETIES' ASYLUM.— On Wednesday evening last the eight anniversary of the auxiliaries of this excellent institution was celebrated by a supper at the St. John of Jerusalem Tavern, Rosaman street, Clerkenwell, when about sixty gentlemen partook of an entertainment which reflected great credit to the worthy landlord, Mr. Porter. Mr. Ritchie, presided as chairman ' and Mr. Dean officiated as.deputy, and were supported, among others, by the following influential members of the society :—Messrs. Buckland, 'Chubb, Wild, Phillips, Weston, Gilbert, Burgess, Bell, and Rid ley. After the cloth had been drawn, the chairman proposed " the health of her Majesty, the Duchess of Kent, and the rest of the Royal Family," which was re ceived with demonstrations of respect; and the National Anthem, sung with much animation. The chairman then, in a few appropriate remarks, gave " Success to the Metropolitan Benefit Societies' Asylum," which was greeted with much applause. This toast was acknow ledged by Mr. Buckland in an interesting exposition of the rise and progress of the institution, which was lis tened to with great attention, and warmly applauded at its close. Mr. Buckland proposed the health of Lord Robert Grosvenor and Lord Viscount Ebrington, two of the warmest friends of the institution. This toast was also well received. The chairman afterwards gave the health of the Committee, who, he said, had rendered much service in promoting the interests of the society. Mr. Chubb, on behalf of himself and colleagues, re turned thanks in a few words replete with good sense. The healths of the chairman, deputy, Mr. Cole, the secretary, and of Mr. Porter, the worthy host, were se verally given, and respectfully acknowledged in suitable terms. Several songs, by Messrs. Robson (of the Eagle), Buckland, and Brown, were sung, and the party broke up at a late ho u r, evidently much gratified by the even ing's proceedings. We regret to hear that Sir Anthony Lechmere re mains in a hopeless state.

Sir,---On Wednesday the 14th the Clergy Relic Bill was read a second time, without a division Another proof that liberality in the department 01 Church affairs is on the -advance. On the same evening the debate was renewed on the Member for Buckinghamshire's motion for a Committee of the whole House on " Agricultural Burthens," and continued by adjournment on Thurs day, when it was negatived by the votes of 280 against 189. The most striking thing about the whole, was the concluding speech of the mover; be ginning in a profession of demand for justice to an interest which for twenty years has been the plun derer of all the others, and ending by throwing off the mask and avowing the unalterable design of moving back to the old tyranny. The speech was a continual "crescendo " in sound and fury, wound up by an almost ludicrous explosion of energetic pom posity, conveyed in a novel allusion to a celebrated old woman, and the vow to imitate her in reiterating the demand, till we see " Protected and Regenerated England." Other Members on the same side made no secret of their disinclination to tamper with any petty object like the removal of the malt tax, and their resolution to look to " a fixed duty upon corn." Here then, after all attempts at decent disguise, the plan is abroad. The demand is for a right to put down foreign com merce at the beck of any man who proffers to prove, that he can supply the consumer with a worse and dearer article at home. The question is not half understood in the House of Commona ; and great responsibility attaches to those who have let pass the opportunities for an almost daily retort on the assailants. It may be very well to make speeches once or twice a session which shall be cried up as unanswerable; but a much more effective system for public progress, is that of giving here a little and there a little, and turning the ardour of the adversary into occasions for repulse. If this had been followed in :timeipast, " Protected and Re generated England" would net now have shown its head, and there would have been no talk of either monuments for its deceased supporters, or chaplets woven by ladies' hands for the living. It cannot be said that the division was quite as bad. as on the Navigation Laws. But it was clearly not an aggressive majority, nor one that is capable of carry ing any principle in advance. The cause of progress in general is arrested, by having allowed Free:Trade to be reduced to a melancholy defensive. The bare has squatted and gambolled, till the tortoise has made sure of the race, as far as winning anything new is in question. There must be Navigation Laws, and a struggle for our plunder for ever, because frolicsome statesmen could not keep going ahead when they were doing. On Friday a motion by Mr. Hume for obliging the Ministers to submit a statement of the expected revenues and expenditure for the ensuing financial year. After a very useful debate, the motion was negatived by 97 to 48. On the same day in Committee of Supply, motion made for reducing the number of seamen voted, from 40,000 to 35,000. There was probably no danger of being wrong in voting for the smaller number. But the remonstrants do not make their case clear in the details. They dwell much on the fact of ships being built to decay; it ',Ting apparently allowed on all sides, that the natural term of a ship is fifteen years. But under such conditions, how is it possible that ships should not be built to decay ? As there has happily been a thirty years' peace, there seems to have been no alternative between this, and having a clear sweep-out of the dockyards ; and no body stands up for the last. On which I only note, that the remonstrants advance an argument which they do not carry to an end. It does not follow that there has not been extravagance ; but the circum stance of ships being built and decaying without ever going to sea, does not prove it. The motion for re duction was finally negatived by 144 against 59. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN OLD REFORMER. London, March 19, 1849. COURT CIRCULAR. OSBORNE, SATURDAY.

The success of Mademoiselle Alboni was confirmed on Saturday, and, probably from increased confidence, her voice appeared even fuller and richer than on the opening night. The phrase "to vorrei caper perche was still the point on which the audience rose to enthusiasm, and " Non piu mesta " was encored with the same ardour as on Thursday. One would think that every one who frequented the Opera was perfectly acquainted with the style of dress required by the establishment. However, the quarrels which frequently ensue with Mr. Weale, the zealous guardian of the pit, about trousers and neckerchiefs, show that this is not the cas e . I t may , t h ere fore, bein structive to state that Opera costume for gentlemen con sists of a dress coat, plain black or white neckcloth, and black or white trousers. The waistcoat may vary ac cording to the fancy of the wearer. HER MAJESTY'S TDEATRE.—AIboni leaves on Wednesday for Paris, the season of the Italiens not clos ing until Easter.

His Grace the Comm ander-in-Chief was engaged for some time on Saturday, at the Horse Guards, when it was understood the arr augments for the departure of Sir Charles Napier were completed. The Gallant Officer was closeted with th a Noble Duke for some hours. Major Bunbury, of the ;3d Regiment, Colonel Napier, of the Cape Mounted Rifh men, and Captain Napier, now at Nice, nephew to Sir Chl ,rles, and son to Sir George Na pier, are appointed to his staff. It may be recollected that Sir Charles's onl: 7 son died of cholera while in Sinde. PLYMOUTH, MARCEL 1 6.—The court-martial sitting at Mount Wise, at Devon wort, to investigate the charges preferred by Colonel 11axwel1 against Quartermaster Hare, resumed its inqt dry yesterday, when the deren dant's legal adviser, Mr. , Lavers, read his defence, which was a very able docume at. After that, Colonel Maxwell was partly examined, a nd the examination resumed to day. Major Robertson was also called, but was under examination for only a .hort time; after which the Court rose. It is expected tht tt the defence will last as long as the prosecution, which commenced on Monday, Febru ary 2G. On the part )f the prosecution 26 witnesses have been examined. CHATHAM, MARCH 17 '--This morning a detachment of the 30th Regiment of :Foot, consisting of 4 sergeants, 1 corporal, and 14 priv ates, arrived at the invalid depot from the service comp: Lilies at Manchester, to be inva lided; and on the 16th inst. 1 sergeant and 21 privates, with 9 women and 17 thiidren, belonging to the 15th Regiment, arrived at a 43 :invalid depot, Fort Pitt, from Brecon, in Wales.

The consternation an. 1 distress occasioned among the working mechanics and , labourers in this yard, as the details of the Government plan of reduction become de • veloped, is extreme. 119 :any who have been doing duty as leading hands over hi red mechanics for years, them selve% having been previously entered on the dockyard establishment, and supp. using themselves on that account secure from discharge, s re to be suddenly turned adrift at the close of the finan 6'll year; the only alternative being the bitter one of I ;aking the berth and pay (12s. a week) of a labourer, a ad this considered a favour. The Rifleman, sere\ r steam-schooner, Lieutenant- Commander S. S. L. Cr( ift,cm, is ordered to be got ready for service by the beginning of the ensuing month. The non-arrival of the Stromboli en Friday caused the men for the Caledonia, intended to have been sent by her, to be dispateleit by the Myrtle steam tender, which sailed in charge of. .Mr. Scarlett, master of the Fanny yacht (her proper master, Mr. Balliston, being ill), on Friday evening. She returned again this morn ing, bringing supernumeraries from Plymouth for the ships at this port. The Stromboli steam sloop, Commander Lord A. W. Beauclerk, arrived hero yesterday morning, and was to have come into the he rbour, but orders awaited her here to proceed to Milford, calling at Plymouth; she accordingly sailed within three hours after her arrival at this port. She is, it is understood, to tow the Magi cienne, a new steam-vess al, from Pembroke to Plymouth, and thence to return her e. Wind, S. by E.; light airs, and hazy weather. PI LOMOTION.

DEATH OF REAR-ADMMAL THOMAS SEARLE, C.B.— This veteran fin-officer cued at his residence, near Portsmouth, on Saturday, aged upwards of 80, after a short illness. He was a mid s hi pman o f the Royal i George ll Bridport's act ion in 1795, and promoted for his exertions in saving tb a lives of seven men. Ho was lieutenant-commander of the hired 12-gun cutter Courier, engaged in 1799, off Wintorton. a French 16-gun privateer, which. (escaped, and captured the Ribotteur of six guns. In the same year he commanded a Schuyt gun-boat at the capture of three vessels on the coast of Holland, and the Courier at the re-capture of the Crash British gun-brig, and capture of other vessels under batteries of Schier 7sloonikoog, which were de stroyed, and subsequently captured the 14-gun privateer cutter Guerriere ; commanded an explosion vessel in Keith's attack upon the Boulogne flotilla in 1803, and of the Grasshopper in 1807, 'in action with three Spanish ships of war, one (the SaaJosef) of 12, a second of 10, and a third of 8 guns, and. captured the first named. In command of the same brig, he engaged the batteries of Rota, and kept in check a division of gun-boats during the capture of a valuable cot soy off Cadiz, in 1808; and in the same month, in company with the Rapid, gun• brig, drove on shore, under the batteries of Faro, two, and captured two Spanish. gun-boats, also a valuable ship, on which occasion :he was wounded. He was gazetted twice in 1799, in 1:307, 1808, and in 1811. By the decease of Admiral Searle, Rear-Admiral of the Blue, Philip Browne becomes Rear-Admiral or the White. Captain William Bowen Mends (1814), of the depot ship Agincourt, 72, at Devonport, is promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral.

Was mate of the Renown, and served. in the boats cutting out the French corvette Guepe, in, 1100. Whilst commanding the Ferreter brig, served. in her boats at the attack on the Boulogne flotilla in 18-0/; Lieutenant of the Goliah, at Copenhagen, in 1807. By the promotion of Captain Mends, the command of the Ordinary at Devonport becomes vacant, and a cap tain's pension of 1501. per annum for good and merito rious services reverts to the gift of the First Lord of the Admiralty. Captain the Right Honourable Charles Lord Colchester (1826) succeeds to the half-pay of 14s. 6d. per diem; and Captain Patrick Duff Henry Hay (1833) to the half-pay of 12s. 6d. per diem. WOOLWICH, MARCH 17.—The Atholl troop-ship, Master- Commander Pearn, embarked three companies of the Royal Artillery for et. passage to North America, and proceeded down the river yesterday afternoon, towed by the Monkey steam-vessel. The companies, consist ing of Captain M'Coy'is sth battalion, Captain Tuite's company 4th battalion, and Major Ilennis's company 2d battalion, assembled on the guard, mounting parade at six o'clock A.M., and marched to the dockyard at half past six o'clock, headed by the band of the regiment, and were taken to the Atholl at her moorings in the river by the gun boats of the dockyard battalion. Cap tain M'Coy commands the company during the voyage, Major Hennis and Captain Tuite being on sick leave. Captain Clifford proceeded with the companies, having exchanged with Captain J. Travers, of the 4th battalion. In the event of the Atholl arriving at Halifax before the navigation of the St. Lawrence is open, she will remain at that port until the ice is cleared away. It is also in tended that she should call at St. John's, New Bruns wick, to embark Captain Ormsby's company, 6th bat talion, ordered home, having been at that station since May, 1843. On the medical examination of the men of Woolwich Dockyard taking place, it has been ascertained that only about a dozen of them will be superannuated. The others who are to be discharged have been generally offered permission to remain as labourers. The pay of the labourers is about 12s. per week. FIELD OPERATIONS AT CHATHAM, MARCH 13.-- The officers and men of the Royal Engineer establish ment, under Colonel Sir Frederick Smith, com menced yesterday morning field-work operations for the season on their usual ground, the Lower Lines at Chat ham. In commencing the siege, they have formed a parallel line, extending south to St. Mary's Barracks, and north to St. Mary's Creek, being a cover for troops and baggage. There were also some experiments in the breaking of a stockade, and blasting brick walls, and to witness these explosions was, among other gentlemen, Captain William Peel, R.N.,:son of Sir Robert Peel, whu is here for the purpose of gaining information in en gineering. The first part of the operations was that of the stockade, which has been erected for the last twelvemonths, built with bulks of oak firmly fixed in the ground, and ribboned together top and bottom, as firm as possible. To effect an open ing in this barrier, two bags of powder were placed on the surface of the ground, close against the erection: each bag contained 501bs. of powder, and was well clamped up with sand bags. Upon firing them an effec tive breach was made of upwards of 8 feet, the timber being shattered into fragments; and so violent was the shock, that 52 panes of glass were broken in the case mate barracks. The doors shook from their hinges, and the roofs literally trembled. The effect of the explosion was felt for some distance. The experiments upon the walls then commenced. The first was that of a 14-inch wall, 6 feet by 6, without counterfort, with one charge of 101ba. of powder, without being clamped. The ex plosion had not the least effect on it. The next was No. 2, same size wall, with 101bs. of powder placed against it, and was clamped up with one sand hag of 901bs. The explosion well cracked it, and it could easily have been pushed down by six men. Then followed a 14 inch wall, 6 by 6 inches, with two 14 inch counterforts, distance between 3 feet 9 inches; the charge placed against it was 151bs. of powder, weighted by three sand bags; being fired, the violence was such as entirely demolished the erection. The next experi ment was against a 9 inch wall, 6 by 6 inches, with 9 inch countertorts, 4 feet 6 inches apart, and the explo sion completely destroyed it. Some interesting experi ments with hand grenades were witnessed this afternoon, by Captain Peel and other gentlemen. Sir Frederick Smith had two square places erected—into one the gre nades, made of iron, filled with powder, were thrown, and they did much execution; and into the other gre nades of glass, they are, however, not so destructive — the only effect would be to troops, that the glass would cut severely; the others are sure to produce instant death. The whole of the operations gave the greatest satisfac tion to Sir Frederick Smith and all the officers present. Edward Thornton and Daniel Brenan, Esqrs., are appointed Executive Councillors, and David Kaye, Esq., a Legislative Councillor, for Prince Edward's Island. PANAMA. PANAMA, JAN. 15.--Were you to see Panama now you would be astounded. It is no longer the dull, wretched place you left only a few months since. We have rat th's moment at least 500 on the Isthmus, wending their weary way towards the new El Do rado of California, and hundreds more are expected ; for we have yet to arrive at Chagres,* that we know of, the steamers Appleton, Isth►uus, and Oens, and a number of sailing vessels. Those already arrived there are the Falcon and Crescent City steamers, and three or four merchant vessels. They have, however, brought us—(at least, so say the Panama natives)—a fatal present; for the Asiatic cholera - I - is at Gor gone and Cruces.t As yet we have not had any case here, and I hope that the refreshing breezes prevail ing at this season of the year, and which keep the town well ventilated, will impede the dire infection from scourging us. My mind is made up for the worst. I must be like the artilleryn an, and die at the cannon's breech. My duties do not permit me to think for one moment of leaving my post, and here I remain to see the last of it, while the major part of the respectable inhabitants are moving away to the country as fast as they can go. The active and invaluable agent of the Steam Navigation Com pany told me he would have sent his family away, but they would not go without him ; so they must share his danger, as he is resolved not to abandon his important public duties. I very much fear that this detestable climate will prove fatal to numbers of the gold-seekers. Four out of the seven who came out with me are lying buried in the slimy soil of that abominable village, Chagres. There is nothing new on this coast, nor in New Granada at present. Every one is anxiously waiting for the presidential election, and there is little doubt that Lopez will be the next president. Then indeed, as sailors say, we may look out for squalls. It is rumoured that Mosquera, the actual President, has made proposals to :the Govern ment of the United States to cede to North America the Isthmus for a sum of money. This report has been well received here, for there is no tie of any kind, whether of political or commercial interest, existing between the people of the Isthmus and their fellow citizens of the interior, and I have no doubt that the stars and stripes will be seen waving over the Isth mus of Panama sooner or later. Rumours are also afloat of a project to divide Equador between Peru and New Granada. * Chagres is the Atlantic port of Panama. It is a negro village, inhabited principally by Sam boes and Mu lattoes, trembling with ague or consumed by fever throughout the year. The heat is excessive and the rain incessant. The appearance of those New Granada citizens is the most ghastly. They subsist by carrying passengers up the river in canoes which they shove along the margin with poles, stark naked. t The yellow fever is endemic at Panama. Two hamlets on the banks of the river. Cot Salwey, M.P., was unavoidably prevented by urgent private business from voting in favour of Mr. Hume's motion " for submitting a financial statement of revenues and expenditure before voting the supplies," also for his amendment on the Navy Estimates. CHAPTER OF TIIE ORDER OF THE GARTER.— The chapter of this illustrious order, which it was un derstood was delayed for the arrival of the Earl of Clarendon from Ireland, will take place in a few days after her Majesty's return to town from Osborne. The knights to be elected are, the Earl of Clarendon, in the room of the late Earl of Carlisle, and Earl Spencer, in the room of the late Earl Talbot. ANECDOTE OF SIR CHARLES NAPIER, G.C.B.— The following highly interesting and characteristic inci dent of the hero of Sinde will prove not only a source of gratification to his friends, but alto to the public, showing that under the stern exterior of the warrior the distressed are not forgotten. On Thursday morning the Commander-in-Chiet of the armies in India arrived at the Waterloo terminus of the South-Western Railway, en route for the Isle of Wight, on his special visit to her Majesty. Sir Charles Napier arrived some time before the train was ready, and passed his time by walk ing about the platform. Whilst he was thus waiting his attention was drawn to a poor woman who appeared to be in a state of depression. Sir Charles Napier at once made up to her and entered into conversation, in the course of which, in all probability, he learned her his tory and the object of her proposed visit to Portsmouth; whatever it was, it awakened the sympathy of the gal lant hero, who returned to the booking•oice, and paid fur a second-class ticket for Portsmouth, which he handed to the poor woman, besides presenting her with a sovereign. Had the poor woman known who was her benefactor the gift would have been doubly enhanced. She saw (we trust) in the future conqueror of the Pun jaub and the Affghans only an elderly private-looking individual. GENERAL SIR CIIARLES NAPIER, BART., G.C.B. —W e understand Sir Charles Napier has appointed as his military secretary that able and distinguished officer Captain Pitt Kennedy, of the Royal Engineers, in addi tion to Major Mtomurdo, of the 78th Highlanders, and Major William Napier, who accompany him as his aides-de-camp. Whe❑ Sir Charles arrives in India, he will be joined by Sir Guy Campbell and ;Captain Byng, who are serving with their regiments in India, to members of his staff. Colonel George Napier, eldest son to Sir George, will shortly follow his gallant and distinguished uncle as an extra aide-de- camp. COMMAND IN INDIA.—We are told that on the Ministc rs concluding their deliberations on the subject of the disastrous news from India, his Grace the Com mander-in-Chief was requested, through Lord Fitzroy Somerset, to furnish the Board of Control with the names of three officers whom he might deem to be equal to the crisis, and the three names furnished by his Grace were Sir Charles Napier—Sir Charles Napier—Sir Charles Napier.—John Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston gave a grand dinner party on Saturday evening, at their residence in Carlton-gardens, the guests at which included his Ex cellency the Danish Minister and the Countess Hilda Reventlow, General Oxholm and the Count de Treshouw (envoys from the Danish Court on the Schleswig-Hol stein question), his Excellency the Sardinian Minister, the Earl and Countess of Minto and Lady Charlotte Elliot, the Countess of Tankerville, Viscountess Jocelyn, Lord Eddisbury, Lord Edward Fitzalan Howard, Sir George Shee, Hon. Mr. and Mrs. W. Cowper, and Mr. Charles Clifford. The Noble Viscountess had subsequently an evening party, which was honoured with the presence of a very large number of the leading members of the aristocracy, and nearly the whole of the corps diplomatique. The Right lion. the Speaker of the House of Commons held his first levee tor the present session on Saturday evening, at his mansion in Eaton-square, on which occasion the Right Hon. Gentleman was honoured with the presence of a very large number of leading members of the Legislature. Lord John Russell entertained the following dis tinguished party at dinner on Saturday evening, at his mansion in Chesham-place:—His Excellency the Am bassador from the French Republic, his Excellency the Dutch Minister and Madlle. Sehimmelpenniuck, his Ex cellency the Austrian Minister and the Countess Col loredo, his Excellency the Belgian Minister and Madame Van do Weyer, the Marquis and Marchioness of Lans downe, the Countess Dowager of Morley, the Earl Gran ville, the Earl Grosvenor, and Viscount Anson. DEATH OF THE COUNTESS DOWAGER OF MUL GRAVE.—W e have to announce the demise of the Coun tess Dowager of Mulgrave (mother of his Excellency the Marquis of Normanby), who expired somewhat suddenly on Saturday evening, at her residence in Eaton-square. The deceased Countess, Martha Sophia, was daughter of the late Mr. Christopher Thompson Mating, and married Henry, first Earl of Mulgrave, October 20, 1795, by whom her ladyship had a family of ten children, seven of whom survive the venerable Countess namely, the Marquis of Normanby, the Hon. Charles P. Phipps (secretary to his Royal Highness Prince Albert), the Ladies Katharine, Sophia, and Charlotte Phipps, the lion. Edmund Phipps, and the Hon. and Rev. Augustus Phipps. DEATII OF TIIE BLACK PRINCE.—Louis Christophe, the soi-disunt Prince of Hayti, who figured so promi nently towards the close of last year at some of our police• courts, died on Sunday last in the workhouse of St. George's-in-the-East, and was buried there on Wed nesday. The Black Prince, as he called himself, had been several times committed as a rogue and vagabond, and had been fur some time in the workhouse. IMPROVEMENTS IN HUNGERFORD MARiST.—The extensive improvements which have been for some time in progress in this market are now completed, and the handsome and commodious range of shops on each side appropriated fur the sale of fish are now opened. The new erections add greatly to the completeness and architectural proportions of the market, and the shops, being fitted up in a uniform and tasteful manner, with handsome marble slabs in front, and well stocked with every kind of fish in season (of the best quality, and at moderate prices) present a most attractive appearance. The objection which has hitherto existed on the part of the public—of being obliged to descend by staircase to the lower area of the market—is now entirely obviated. The new fish shops being on a level with the Strand, the public may now, without inconvenience or exposure to the weather, purchase the various commodities offered for sale in the several departments of the market. The access to the steam-b oa t p i er an d b r id ge , a nd the nearest sout _ South- Western foot passage to th e Y or k- road S tat i on of the $ Western Railway, being through the market, will no h doubt render it a point of great a ttraction and con course during the ensuing summer.

MILFORD, MARCH 17.—The Venus schooner, laden with coals, with lore-mast gone by the board, and main mast bead carried away, and abandoned, was towed in here to-day by the James, of Kinsale. She is supposed to be the Venus, Fitzgerald, of Cork, which was aban douKl off Waterford 11th inst. MARYLEBONE VESTRY. COST OF TEE METROPOLITAN PRISONS. On Saturday, the Per. Dr. Spry having taken th. chair, Sir PETER LAURIE laid before the vestry the follow• ing statement of the cost of the metropolitan prisons : Coldbath-fields cost 10,6481. annually ; the number of' prisoners averaged 1,000, and their maintenance Was 331. per head. Westminster House of Correction cos 13,6721. a year; its prisoners numbered 700, and their maintenance was 231. a head. In the House of Deten tion there were 122 prisoners, at a cost of 8,459 L 125.. or 691. a head ; including 3,600/, which the erection of the building cost, each prisoner cost the country 841. each. He hoped the county would not submit to such an extravagant outlay for the support of prisoners, and referred these facts to the county and police rate cons. mittee. PAROCHIAL AND INCOME• TAX ASSESSMENT. Mr. W. WILLIAMS brought under the attention of the board the present objectionable mode of assessing the parish for the relief of the poor, and proposed that the subject should be taken into consideration on that day fortnight. He, however, subsequently withdrew his motion in favour of a proposition submitted by Mr. Carr for the appointment of a committee to revise and re modify the mode of assessment; but on a division this was rejected by 30 to 20, after which 30 guardians of the poor were elected from a list of 30 names. The vestry then adjourned. GUIDE TO THE TURF; or Pocket Racing companion for 1849. By w. Ruff, Turf Re porter to the daily London papers, and Bell's Life in London, 1849.

SOUTHAMPTON, MARCH 17. -- The Royal Mail West India Company's steam-ship Tay, commanded by Captain Chapman, with the mails for the West Indies, Madeira, &c., left this afternoon. She had a full gene ral cargo, with specie to the amount of 26,6531. 75. 6d. The passengers by the Tay amounted to 57, amongst whom were Captains Belfield and Parke. Sixteen of the passengers were for Chagres, en route for California. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship, Iberia, commanded by Captain Burney, with the mails for Cadiz, Vigo, Oporto, Lisbon, and Gibraltar, left this day. Her cargo, consisting chiefly of cottons, amounted to 125 tons. She took out about twelve pas sengers.

FIRING THE QUEEN'S PLANTATIONS IN RICHMOND PARE.—At the Richmond petty sessions on Saturday, two lads, named George Woodley and James Dinner, each 14 years of age, were summoned before the bench of magistrates by Mr. Sawyer, the head keeper of Richmond -park, for an act of wilful damage, which might have destroyed six acres of plantations, the pro perty of the Queen. It appeared that on Friday week Mr. Sawyer employed the defendants to drive some cattle to the higher part of the park, where the grass was long. About the middle of the day be was informed that about six acres of plantation had been set on fire by the carelessness of the defendants in lighting a pipe, and throwing the ignited paper into the long dry grass; and it was only by the timely knowledge of the fact, and by great personal risk on the part of some of his labourers, that the fire was quenched and the plantations saved. He had not charged them with the felony, because he believed it to have been an act of carelessness. The boys, therefore, were, after a severe reprimand by the Bench, and a❑ undertaking from their parents that they would severely chastise them, discharged from custody. THE BENEVOLENT SOCIETY OF ST. PATRICK.--A. meeting of the friends of this excellent charity was held on Saturday afternoon (St. Patrick's Day), at the School house, Great Stamford-street, to receive the report of the managing committee, and for the transaction of ordinary business. It appears that although the income has for the last two years been seriously diminished, the institution has remained unimpaired and in a fully effi cient state. But the efforts thus made have placed the managing committee under heavy pecuniary embarrass- , Anent, and unless sustained by the public, the committeo will be reluctantly compelled to circumscribe their future sphere of operations. There are at present nearly 300 orphan children (male and female) on the books, all re ceiving sound education, and a large proportion are fed and clothed. Owing to the distressed state of Ireland, the usual anniversary festival was, for the first time, omitted; but the children were provided with the cus tomary substantial dinner in the school-room, where several of the governors attended. Very many dona tions have already been received, including 1051. from her Majesty, 501. from the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, 251. from the Duke of Devonshire, and some others of smaller amount. The omission of the usual festival redounds little to the liberality or nationality of the Irish aristocracy, as the collection made in former years has always served to swell the income; but the managing committee, finding they could not secure a sufficiont attendance of the " friends" of Ireland, did not deem it prudent to incur the responsibility incident to a public dinner. UNITED SERVICE INSTITUTION.--A special general meeting of the officers of both services who support this institution was held on Saturday at the Thatched-house, St. James's, the Earl of Strafford in the chair, when the expediency of erecting a lecture theatre, in con nexion with the buildings in Scotland-yard, as was con templated in the original design, was taken into consi deration. There was but one opinion among the officers assembled as to the desirableness of a proper lecture theatre for the elucidation of science as applied to naval and military operations; but there was some difference as to the propriety of proceeding with the works till the necessary funds were subscribed. Admiral Jones wished to deliq in the meantime; indeed, ho thought the insti tution at present was too much of a puppet-show ; he wished to see the rubbish and nonsense to be found there turned out, and the buildings appropriated to the pursuit of naval and military science to be kept secret from the public and foreigners. This opinion, however, did not meet with the approbation of his brother offi cers. Upon the motion of Sir Roderich Murchison, F.R.S., seconded by Captain Lorraine White, R.N., it was resolved that the council be instructed to proceed at their discretion with the erection of a lecture theatre, in order to complete the buildings according to their ori ginal design. Many gallant ,officers expressed their conviction that the council, if they would proceed with, the works, would not be left by the officers of both ser vices without the requisite means. The Noble Chair man having expressed himself warmly in favour of the motion, a vote of thanks was accorded to him; and the meeting separated. THE LATE SHERIFF WHIGHAM.--At a meeting of the county of Perth on Tuesday last, Lord Mansfield alluded to the loss which the county had sustained by the death of Mr. Whigham, and passed a high enlogium upon him. At a special meeting of the society of Pro curators of Perthshire on the 9th instant, a resolution was adopted, which set forth that for eight years the practitioners in th e cour t s o f that county had had amplebei ff opportunities of observing the many te the office of while many eminent men had Whigham had to their confidence and es t eem, cl i a m ims S and that s s u h r e p ri a ff ss i e n d the Sheriff county h o i g f the discharge of official one, it was believed, dut ies.—Scotsman.

As the short train which runs between Bath and Bristol, leaving the latter place at half-past seven, was approaching the Keynsham station, by some means, as yet unexplained, the engine became disengaged from the carriages. The driver, not aware of the circumstance, ran on, and pulled up,' as usual, at the station. Within a minute, however, the carriages came rushing on, perfectly unrestrained, and a violent collision took place. Fortunately, no life was lost; but one passenger was s o muc h i n j ure d th a t he c ou ld not proceed on his jo urne y.
