The strongest, best, and cheapest safeguards in the world against Fire, Robbery, or violence. The late fearful explosion and wide-spreal devastating Fire at Gateshead and Newcastle, destroyed property of the value of one million, converting a large area of warehouses (filled with sulphur, nitrate of soda, peat charcoal, and other highly combustible stores), whole stacks of offices. houses, &c., into a perfect volcano of fierce, concentrated, incinera ing, and long-enduring furnace heat, in which not only combustible things, but even br CKS, stones, and iron were burnt up and fused. Safes of the ordinary kind, iron dsored strong rooms, were alike melted, tons asunder, their contents charred and destroyed. But amongst the many instances of preservation, Thomas Milner and Son have pleasure in giving publicity to the following gratifying testimonial:— "Newcastle-up n-Tyne, Oct. 19,. 1854. " Gentlemen,—We have great pleasure in stating that, whilst our offices were completely destroyed and burnt down in the great fire which, on the 6th Inst., reduced a great many buildings in Newcastle upon-Tyne and Gateshead to ashes, two of your large ' lioldfast . Safes, in our offices, have been the means of preserving our books, bills, and other valuable documents, although these safes were ex posed for about nine to ten hours to an immense heat, and dug out of the ruins in a red-hot state. On opening them we found our princi pal books and bills in a good state of preservation. Some of the papers were singed and discoloured, but we are happy to say they can be used for the main purpose they were intended for. We feel it our duty to state these facts, and will thank you to make us new safes to suecification.—We are, gentlemen, yours truly, "A. LEIDEMANN AND CO. " Messrs. Thomas Milner end Son."

Besides, the balance uninvested by the Commissioners of Savings Banks and Friendly was 174,6831. 16s, 6d. was SPIRIT OF TIE PUBLIC JOURNALS. THE MINISTERIAL CRISIS. (Prom the Times of this day.) The Ministry is at length reconstituted ; the writs have been moved for Tiverton and Sout ; her Majesty will this day deliver the seals of office to Mr. Sidney Herbert and Lord Paninure, the two new Secretarieh of State ; and the interval of twelve days which so inopportunely suspended the activity of the British Government is at an end. The changes which have thus been effected are not numerous, but they are considerable. Lord Aberdeen, Lord John Rus sell, and the Duke of Newcastle quit the Cabinet, and Lord Panmure alone joins it ; for, in consequence of the now ar rangements, these three resignations leave but one vacancy. It is to be hoped that the Government will gain in vigour of direction and promptitude of execution by the change in the Premiership and the War Department ; and the retirement of Lord John Russell unquestionably removes the principal cause of internal divisions and weakness. In the present state of public affairs, when difficulties and dangers of no common magnitude have to be surmounted, and the welfare and honour of the nation are most deeply concerned in every act of the Government, we hold it to be the first duty of every honest politician to give the 'new Cabinet that support which can alone enable it to grapple with emergencies more terrible than any of which this generation has had experience. It is with extreme pain and disgust that we observe, before even these Ministerial arrangements are completed, and before Lord Palmerston has had an opportunity to address a single proposition to Parliament, that the factious of either party are already venting their animosity and dis appointment on the unformed Ministry, and endea vouring to anticipate its ruin. Is this a time for us to be told that Lord John Russell ought to be placed at the head of the great Liberal party, or that Lord Derby ought to have brought back his followers to power, when within the last few days both these leaders have attempted to form Govern ments by a combination with the self-same elements, and both have failed I These negotiations have proved, if they have proved anything, that in the present state of parties and of men in the House of Commons no material change could be effected in the composition of the Ministry with any prospect of stability, and that, oven at a moment of unexampled diffi culty and Ministerial dissolution, the choice of the Sovereign Anl,...the country is confined within a very narrow circle. This resat is deeply to be deplored. No political party can perform its duty to the country, and assume the proper re sponsibility of its actions, which is not in a condition to take the government upon its own shoulders;, yet at this moment no political party in the State can perform that duty without the aid of its rivals and the forbearance of its opponents. This strange and inconvenient state of affairs seems at first sight inexplicable, when we contrast the limited demands of .the public service and the great rewards attached to it with the vast intelligence and activity of this nation. Is it, after all, so difficult to bring together 12 or 14 men 'of the same political opinions in the same Cabinet, and to select them mainly with a view to the. work they have to do / The true answer we take it to be, that the remedy is in the hands of the people, and that the people are chiefly, to blame if they are not in possession of a powerful, capable, and effective Government. It is worth while, especially at this moment, to examine somewhat narrowly the causes which have placed us in this position, and contracted the re sources of the Administration. The House of Commons, chosen by the people, is the basis of our political system, and the first test the political aspirant has to undergo. As a scat in the House of Commons is au indispensable condition of high office in the Government, the choice of the Crown or of the Minister engaged in the formation of a Cabinet does not range over the whole community, but over the 656 gentlemen sitting at Westminster. - Of this number a third at least are of opposite Politics, another third are out of the question for various reasons, and we doubt whether 100 members of tho House of Commons can be said to possess the requisites for the public service. Even this number would be still further reduced if wo subtract the men actively engaged in profes sional pursuits or in business, which demands their daily at tention. We require in a man who is to be one •of the Mi nisters of this country several qualifications—a seat in Par liament which he is not likely to lose on his re-election, an independent position, and leisure to devote every hour of the clay to the public service—a certain power of oratory, which is not always . united to administrative talent a practical knowledge of business -- an un blemished character, and eminent abiltties. Tried by this standard—which, however, is not an exaggerated one —how many men have the constituencies of this country sent to Parliament who can be considered as fit to hold the power and responsibilities of the Government ? If the country complains, as it does with reason, that it has more difficulty in finding men capable of conducting its affairs than the groat companies and associations which play so large a part in the social transactions of England, and that the political govern ment of thisnation is thrown into the hands of the aristocratic families, the cause of this difficulty is, that the constituencies have not returned to Parliament a sufficient number of men competent to dispute or to share that influence, and to beconie the rulers of this empire. To raise the character of the House of Commons is an indispensable preliminary to the im provement of the Government. If there be a dearth of states men and of leaders to whom the nation can look with confi dence and respect, the charge rests, in the first place, at the door of those to whom the law has given the choice of our representatives, for out of the number of those representa tives the chief executive offices of the Government must be filled. The question is not whether better Ministers can be found in the country, but whether better Ministers are to be found in the House of Commons ; once in -that body, such men of mark may be left to acquire their natural influence, and to assert their proper station. The exercise of the franchise alone qualifies men to enter the lists of public life ; that -power is in the hands of the people ; and, in proportion as it is used with dis crimination and purity, the results will conduce to the great ness and glory of the nation. It is not improbable that, if the new does not obtain from Parliament that support which the Government act...n r ,a‘nnires in the present emergency, Lord Palmerston may resolve upon an ap peal to the country; and, whenever such an event does occur, it is impossible to urge too strongly on the electoral body that they are bound to return 112011 to — ivhoiie keeping they are ready to confide the destinies of the State. At present, however, the first duty of the Government is to act with vigour in dealing with that terrible state of affairs which the whole correspondence from the East but too fully confirms ; and the impression to be produced on this coun try and on Europe by Lord Palmerston's Administration will not a little depend on his first acts. It is obvious that there are changes to be made aid deficiencies to be supplied in the most important branch of the public service, without which no improvement can be hoped for. Bold, stringent, and de cisive measures are absolutely requisite. If they are taken, we have no doubt that Parliament and the nation will rally round the Government—if they are omitted, the country will ask what we have gained by this change. (Prom, the Daily News of this day.) Lord Palmerston is Prime Minister of England. After forty-four' years of official life he has reached the top of the tree. Lord Palmerston owes the position he occupies moreto his own abilities, and less to connections, than perhaps any of his, associates or rivals in the political- arena. He has ambition, and ho has the sentiments of an English gentleman. There are, therefore, flood grounds for believing that he will aspire to render his Administration one of note and mark in the annals of his country ' • and that ho will aim at this end by moans conducive to the honour and interests of England. Whether ho will be able to realise his aspirations, by the co operation of the Ministers ho has associated with him in office, time will show. The material changes in the composition of the Cabinet are confined to the secession ofThe Earl of Aber deen, the Duke of Newcastle, and Lord John Russell ; and the accession of Lord Panmure. In the Earl of Aberdeen, the country has'got rid of a PreMier whom the instinctive sense of the public taught it to distrust and recoil from, even before the damning evidence that has of late been produced revealed to all men his incapacity. In the Duke of Newcastle the country has got rid of a Minister singularly tenacious of office, and singularly incompetent to discharge its duties. On the other hand, the country has lost in Lord John Rus sell a statesman whom recent revelations prove to have been earnest in urging his colleagues on to decided action, and in tolerant of mere formalism in office: How far the accession of Lord Panmuro will compensate for the loss of Lord John remains to be seen. Thus much may be predicted of Lord Panmure's fitness for the office he now fills :—To carry into effect the radical and sweeping reforms called for in the British army, a Minister is required who can, when necessary, do unpleasant things ; and Lord Panmuro has shown that he not only can do unpleasant things, but take pleasure in doing them. Turning from individuals to the general aspect of the re-constructed Cabinet, it does not appear fitted to inspire much confidence. The Peelites and the colourless Whigs predominate too much in it. That, however, is mainly Lord Palmerston's concern. Ho has undertaken to accom- plish the arduous task which lies before him by the instru mentality of these colleagues ; and he is as much responsible for the selection of his instruments as for the use he may pm them to. If the country at lar..to is disposed to place more confidence in the reconstructed Cabinet than it did in the Cabinet which preceded the late break-up, it is simply be cause Lord Palmerston, instead of Lord Aberdeen, is at the head of it. Whatever hopes may bo entertained of improved management of the war repose upon Lord Palmerston. If these hopes are realised, the glory will be Lord Palmerston's ; if they prove abortive, upon him will fall the shame and blame of failure. If he sotto work honestly and energetically to repair the evils occasioned by tho narrow views, indiffe rence, and incapacity of his predecessor, the count r y will support him. The conjuncture at which Lord Palmerston seizes the reins of State is critical in the extreme. There is no use in seeking to conceal the low ebb to which the British force in the Cri mea has been reduced. The exposure of its weakness will be no news to the Czar, and will not encourage him to an attack ; for he knows that the British are supported, by the French before Sebastopol; and he is further kept in check by the Turkish force gathering on his flank at Eupatoria. The con dition of the Allies, and of the Russian army opposed to them, renders it extremely probable that operations *ill be in a great measure suspended on both sides till the middle of March. The interval is the time allowed to Lord Palmerston to reinforce our army and complete its' organisation, and to concert with our Allies in - what manner the campaign is to be renewed in the Crimea. For the state of Sebastopol is now such that, in all likelihood, instead of making its reduc tion the preliminary step to the ejection of the dispirited Russians from, the Crimea, it will be found necessary first to drive the Russians from the Crimea, and then reduce Sebas topol by regular siege, or even by the /slow process of block ade. One of our correspondents writes The fortress has bl grown so strong—and it is growing stronger —that the rtesui.t of a cannonade and an attack would be most proema lea Where we used to see plain earth, there are aro now batteries; and, in Sebastopol, every house is a fort and every pa re a citadel." The first care of Lord Palmerston mfrs be to have our army placed upon a proper footing. Our Allies have a k right . to ex pect that wo will take our . fair share of the . wo . r . , and the national safety is incompatible with an ignominious retreat from the struggle in which we have engaged. At present it does not appear that the English army in the Crimea could muster much more than 16,000 men. Reinforcements, it is true, continue to drop in, and there are always a proportion of the invalids who recover their strength and return to duty. But both these sources are inadequate to compensate for the drain of 1,000 men per week—the rate at which the effective force of the army would, but for them, be diminished. The army has before it at least six weeks more of winter ; and at their close the fever season comes on. An attempt was made in the House of Commons yesterday to deny that the weekly drain on the effective strength of the army is so great as we have stated. The medical returns, it was said, show that it is much less than 1,000 per week. But these returns are incomplete and fallacious ; they only give the number of sick iu the hospital tents, and omit all those who, though locatable ..~__ _/- IPRICE SD. of duty, are not admitted to these tents for want of room. For this excessive sickliness of the troops the late Govern ment are clearly, in a great measure, responsible. Want of sufficient shelter for the troops is a main cause of the sickness and mortality iu the army. Now, as soon as the Crimean expedition began to be talked of, Sir John Scott Lillie drew the attention of Lord Hardinge and the Government to the necessity of providing wooden huts in advance for tie winter shelter of the soldiers ; but the first contract for such huts, in this country, was net entered into until the Crimean win ter had fairly set in. The sickness and mortality in the army of the Crimea may be greatly diminished by accelerating the provision of shelter, anti rendering more sure and regular, the distribution of clothing and rations for the soldiers. A beginning has been made towards the attainment of these ends ; but a large in fusion of fresh blood into the transport and commissariat ser vices, and sleepless superintendence and control on the part of the head of the Government, will be required to make it more than a mere beginning. The sickness and mortality in the army having been diminished, the means of adding to its effective force will have next to 'be considered. A very remarkable letter from "An Old Trooper," which we publish to-day, presents a striking view of the man ner in which the late disastrous news from the Crimea is contributing to render more difficult the raising of re cruits. This evil consequence of mismanagement can only be counteracted by improving the condition of our sol diers in the Crimea. As soon as it shall appear that they have been rendered more comfortable, the military spirit of our peasantry will revive. But it is not merely men—it is an organised army that is wanted ; and to make an organised army we must have competent officers. To this end one of the first duties of the new Preinier and War Minister must be to throw aside the muster-rolls of the Horse Guards—to break through the conventional rules of promotion for mere seniority, and to trample upon the preference hitherto con ceded to the aristocracy. The officers—even those of the highest grade--for the army of the Crimea ought, as a rule, to be between the ages of 30 and 46 ; and they ought, if possible, to be men who have seen real service in the field. The officers of the regiments which have served in Africa and at the Cape ought to be preferred ; and it ought to be kept in mind that the Queen has two armies, and that is the dut of Ministers to make no distinction between them, but select capable officers as readily from the Indian army as fr thak-whicla is called par excellence "The Queen's." Th . • will be muttering among our Peninsular veterans at the posal to bring for.verd men • there be clir among the scions of aristocracy at the proposa, t,o make capacity the sole title to employment and promotion; there will be dismay and indignation throughout " The Queen's " army at the proposal to place the Indian army on a footing with them. But all this discontent must be disregarded, if the full military power of the nation is to be brought into play ; and the contest in which we are engaged demands out utmost efforts. At the head of an aug mented army, thus officered, ought to be placed an able General in the prime of life, able and willing to keep himself constantly in the eyes of his soldiers, to see everything with his own eyes, and to lay hand to work when any of the machinery of the army is " thrown out of gear ing." We have given more prominence to the improvements required in the human material of our army than to improve ments in organisation—not because we do not feel the urgent necessity of the latter, but because we are convinced that competent men and officers can do more, even under an in different system, than weaklings and fools can under the most plausible system that human ingenuity can devise. It will be no bad test of the competency of the new Pre mier and War Minister for their task, the manner in which they set about the indispensable innovations on the old sys tem of appointments and promotions in the army. (From the Morning Advertiser of this day.) Now that Lord Palmerston has succeeded in forming a new Government, there can be no harm in detailing some of those difficulties which the noble lord had to encounter in the exe cution of the task which her Majesty confided to him. On receiving his Sovereigns commands on Sunday afternoon, to construct a new Cabinet, Lord Palmerston applied—for rea sons with which we are acquainted, though it would not be right to mention them—at once to Mr. Gladstone, Mr. S. Herbert, and the other leading Peelites, to join the new Ad ministration. In anticipation of the occurrence of such a contingency as that of their being asked to join a Palmer ston Government, the Peelites had met on Sunday morning in the house of Sir James Graham, ho being confined to his room, and consequently unable to take part in their deliberations at any other place. The result of their meet ing was, that they determined on refusing office under Lord Pahnerston unless ho would consent to appoint Lord Aber deen Lord President of the Council. This determination was formally communicated to Lord Palmerston early on Monday, and the noble lord intimated in reply, in the plainest terms, that if the Peelites declined to join him, except on the con dition of giving the Presidency of the Council to Lord Aber deen, he could and would form a Cabinet without them. He gave them, however, till the morning of the following day to ,re-consider . the resolution to which they had come. Another meeting of their number took place in the interval—also in Sir James Graham's house—at which the Peelites came to the conclusion, that if Lord Palmerston would agree to give two more of their number seats in the Cabinet, they would join him in his Administration. . The two parties for whom they stipulated were Lord Canning and Mr. Cards 311. The pro position was at once rejected by Lord Palmerston ; but he went so far as to intimate his readiness to agree to such a compromise as should consist in his giving a seat to Lord Canning alone. The Peelites, acting chiefly under th, ad vice of the Duke of Newcastle, after some hesitation, though even then with manifest reluctance, assented to the terms, and thus terminated a most momentous Ministerial Crisis. SIR CHARLES NAPIER. AND THE ADMIRALTY. (From the Tits of this day.) There is something quite uncanny about this awful war. Nothing follows suit in it, and it goes wrong from first to last. How it becr.-, non were was"peaue wneu were vow.. to nave neon fighting, and fighting when we chose to call it peace, everybody knows. But its very festi vities turn sour, and in its givings of thanks there is always a note out of tune. Sir De Lacy Evans appeared, with all honours, to receive that rarest and richest mcod of valour, the thanks of the Speaker before the assembled house, but no sooner had he opened his lips in reply than something possessed him to re proach his eulogists, and challenge to hot controversy all who should do less than justice to the Second Division. Then comes the Mansion-house dinner. The Lord Mayor is seized with the commendable ambition of presenting himself before , the eyes of the nation between the most stately and the most eccentric of our modern heroes. Garrick between Tragedy and Comedy had sympathies for both, and it is hard to say which he would follow. But no Lord Mayor of London that over existed could have shown simultaneous affinities to Car dicein and Napier, or have harmonised two such utter dim el:Mos. There, however, they were, to make the best of themselves. Cardigan did his part with perfect good taste. • There is something indeed suggestive of Madame Tussaud in the " identical uniform" which ho wore in the desperate cavalry charge. But his speech was, with a slight exception, the simplest possible narrative of facts, and is, indeed, a brief history of the war throughout its earlier stages. His de- Scription of that most gallant, though Quixotic enterprise, in which there was " the greatest apparent certainty of death that could possibly be conceived," without the slightest advantage to be gained by the sacrifice, was at once digni fied, modest, and affecting. How it happened that a body of men so brave and well-disciplined, so attached to their officers; and so well cared for by them in return, should have been led to certain destruction with scarce a word of remonstrance against a stupid and ' suicidal order, Lord Cardigan forbore to explain. Perhaps he may have good reasons for his silence ; but in the mean time we must beg leave to retain our belief that, notwith standing the valour and discipline of that ill-fated corps, it was recklessly offered up as a victim to that want of harmony which is known to have existed, for some reason or other, between itself and the other branches of the service. And now for Sir Charles Napier. At all events, duty and obedience arc not here overdone. The contrast is the greatest that can be imagined. According to Sir Charles, the fleet placed. under his command was " badly manned and worse disciplined," and he never had fair play from the Admiralty. The conclusion is, that he has brought home his fleet with scarcely the loss of a man, an anchor, or a spar. In the army we seem to have perfect organisation and entire destruction —in the navy no discipline, and no loss ; there not being much to choose between the respective results on the enemy. But, disguise it as we may, the spectacle of a magnificent fleet assembling in the Baltic, and coming back scathless, with nothing to show but the destruction of some granite works and the capture of 2,000 prisoners, done by soldiers, not by sailors, does not command itself to the taste of the British people, and has not found favour with the Admiralty. So Sir Charles has been relieved of his command, and, as a natural consequence, went off at the Mansion-house on Tues day like an unlucky gun that hangs fire and then explodes at half-cock. In the strange mixture of exposures and re serves that run through his speech, it is impossible to form any judgment on his case. Nor is ho always con sistent with himself. The principal exposure is, that the Admiralty asked Sir Charles " why he did not take S area borg, and why he did not do this, that, and the other;" in fact, why he did not do something ? The question is so natu ral, that one looks for the answer, and Sir Charles's answer is a very mysterious one. Ho says he proposed a plan for taking Sweaborg, which might be taken by a certain day, though he does not tell us what the plan was, why ho proposed it in stead of executing it forthwith, and what the answer of Go vernment was to this apparently gratuitous proposition. As we do not know the letter of Sir Charles's instructions, it may be rash to pronounce on his conduct on his own showing; but, that a =an should take a magnificent fleet to the Baltic, and, instead of doing anything, send the Admiralty a bl p a l m an e en of French shp, Governmentor . e o n m s t o t o t the atkp re o aplproposing delay stihneg for doing something, and then not do it, and thro e w ino, grotesque a proce d that it on the Admiralty, is so utterly gro expla n e a f t ro ion ma o rs ne un w d z :npn e edg r rliot a rhs n ha o st t capture d in em th a e nds soldiers which i e e na ga b y l s ed , credit, by conferring a baton on the General in command, employ Sir Charles is not more lucid than-on the matter of Sweaborg. to the Ho wrote, as to attack Bomarsund. Why he should write at all, or pro ose a nything, we do not know, but let that pass. " I w an ted," he says, " no other troops to enable me to go there. 1 had troops enough ; but the French Admiral thought it more proper to have some. The French Government sent out 10,000 troops accordingly. I repeat, that I did not want them they would much better have been employed at Sebastopol. I only asked for one or two thousand men to make the thing more sure, but I could have done the work without them, and I wrote home to that effect. However, they sent us out 10,000 mon." Can any body make out from this whether Sir Charles asked for more men or not ? He first says that he did not, then that he did, and lastly that he did not. If ho did, of course it is a very great pity, as the French have reaped all the glory of the achievement, and the British army has not even that to boast of. We quite agree, too, with Sir Charles, that just at that time 10,000 men would have been better in the Crimea. ,If, as he seems to admit, he did ask for one or two thousand soldiers just to make the thing snore sure, when he had an ample force of Marines in his fleet for this very sort of occa sion, he must not complain if the British Government took him at his word, and, having more regard to the success of the joint muse than the private glory of England, sent him the very effectual assistance of 10,000 French soldiers. But what is the real imputation that Sir Charles - must ad dress himself to I It is not simply that he has done nothing, except opposing a very imperfect obstruction to Russian com merce, as much to our loss as theirs. No sensible person wished to force our wooden walls into collision with the granite walls of the foe. People talked of Cronstadt, to be sure, and they talk of it now, but they do not wish anything to be done•rashly, and they are quite ready to hear what Sir Charles has to say on the question of " Wood verful Granite, ~~~ sr4th PO — ti till fapithatisti 1* tie shigij wai la Om m thou tl4 taw nosintr %WSW Oh s; Way hMe matargt ao lam cif eiq - adit th net tlestriiting wbat wee not even known to exist. The dieappeintment, •Oa puzzle of the people, is this :—Why this immense fleet ? Why these magnificent steamers, se colossal and yet so manageable? Why ships twice as big as Nelson's biggest, with twice as much weight of metal ? Why Sir Charles Nspier's big announcements ? Why the boastful and bullying tone of tha dinner at the Reform Club ? Why that ostentatious parade up and down the Baltic, with, every now and then, a repeti tion of the Portsmouth Review ? Why that " war to the knife with Russia" which Sir Charles on returning home told his gaping friends in Marylebone was the first article in his political creed ? Why all this swagger, if nothing was to be done ? If that is all, if we can only break our teeth it Ira fri r - them on the fortifications in the Baltic, surely that can 1,6 proved at less cost than all this bluster, which is very case/ indeed to the national credit. Sir Charles seems to ha Vs found out no more than everybody knew. We all knew that Cronstadt was a very formidable place, that it was surrounded by miles of shallow water, and that the channel was narrow, circuitous, difficult to be traced, and well enfiladed by numerous batteries. We complain that Sir Charles left us at the end of the year just as we were at the beginning, neither str,nger nor wiser. His speech on 'Tues day is of much the same unprogressive character. What la" we the wiser for it ? These Admirals seem to think that t‘e final purpo e of a fleet is to look terrible, to manoeuvre, for communicate by signals, to r. ndezvous now and then at some good anchorage or convenient poi t, to challenge with im punity, to command the seas within sight, and to return home safe and sound, having done nothing. What we ask for is something less magnificent, less terrible, less complete itself, less addicted to challenge the universe but rather MOW adapted to the particular purpose in view.' dive us something that shall take Cronstadt, however ugly, sneaking, unpoetical, uncomfortable it may look. A flotilla of guLeboats that would really do the business would be worth more than fifty Duke of Wellingtons or Royal Alberts, which for all practical Vv. poses might as well be packet-ships, carrying soldiers, -,,tud defying the ouemy, not by guns, but by speed.. We wart tools, not for show, but to do the work ; and if Sir Charles, or anybody else of established reputation, has any feasible plan, let him offer it, but we shall think all the better of It if it dispenses with big ships and empty bragging. (Front the Morning Chronicle of this day.) The Napiers have ever been an extraordinary family, well deserving the fame and honours they have enjoyed, and the Public praise& awarded them for their services, not to their country alone, but to all mankind. In arms, in science, and its literature, they have been alike distinguished, and the pre sent age has esnecially been illustrated by their bravery and their tale' . - would not ni the '...ang can impair will be the extreme ....Limn of this family, of the bed himself in referring to their s Napier at the Mansion-house to' have taken the public by sure so are equally unable to bear me ,. Juwvies himself has been so accustoineir to actulation - of which, we frankly admit, very much has been deserved--that he is morbidly sensitive to criticism. Other commanders, admirals, and generals have been cen sured for neglect, apathy, or more generally for disappointing the expectations of their countrymen ; yet they have not thought it necessary to broak out in . an extravagant manner at the first inappropriate opportunity, • and cover their supe riors . with obloquy. There were peculiar - reasons, as Sir Charles Napier must have read in the newspapers, why an attack on Sir James Graham was at the present moment un becoming. If a man of the activity and specific political weight of the right honourablo bau•onet has been prevented by illness from taking any active part in negotiations, at a crisis when the public conduct of Iris friends and colleagues was in question, surely it could no t be right to expect him to enter the lists with every exasperat,sd commander, mortified at the public disapointinent, and that .collapse of all extrava gant expectations that had been fortat el upon a memory of his past exploits. Lord John Russell is not in very high , . It: your at the present moment, and, therefore, we have the more satisfaction in complimenting him for having in one ins F es nee—we admit its singularity—snov,ll insight and sagacity. He refused Sir Charles Napier th e comman d o f th e M e ditetrauean fleet, be cause, in his opini on , he " wanted di s cr et ion." Our readers will remember Lord I : almerston's manly vindication of Sir Charles from this charge, at the Reform Club banquet, founded on a retrospect of the gallant admit a l'ot.character and services. Nor will they have forgotten the vet y handsome terms in which Sir James Graham, now the ob, ject of Sir Charles Napier's vilification, spoke of him on the same occa sion. lt now appears, from the enraged adut iral's own admission, that Sir James, in letters during the :A ay of the fleet iu the Baltic, had f r d quen tly a b so l ve d hi ts .f. -om this charge of want of discretion. Aft er a ll, it t urns u , ut that Lord John Russell was - not very wrong in his • estimate , ; for, certainly, whatever character for " discretion" Sir 0. harks Napier may have wrung from the First Lord of the Ad. , n iralty during the past year, Ile has utterly forfeited it by his ext. ' -.tor divary and unjustifiable speech on Tuesday evening. . The truth we suspect to be, that the militant portion of si.he Napier family are discreet enough when on actual sersie ea but that they cannot ba trusted with a pen in their band, 'Or with the liberty of public speaking. Sir Charles Napier is in a great rage, but it is difficult te• discover exactly what has worked him up into that oblivious state. His charges against Sir James Graham are of that conglomerated kind which are often heard from infuriated females who are too much must passion to speak distinctly. Of what is it that he complains ! He says he has been censured by his Government, and dismissed from hie command—the gentlemen around him flatly con tradicting this latter statement. At present, the publie whatever opinion may have been formed of the singular contrast between Sir Charles Napier's earlier and his later career—are in no official way informed of either the one or tho other event having yet occurred. In the absence of positive evidence on these points, whence the boiling Indigna tion of Sir Charles Napier? Is it because, as a naval com mander, he has performed an evolution analogous to the cele brated military manoeuvre of the King of Franco and his twice ten thousand men ? Is it because Sir James Graham from time to time wrote him letters urging him to action What could be more natural ? An admiral on service dwell not supersede the Government in their functions, whatever' opinion they may have of his " discretion." The kind of " discretion" displayed by the gallant admiral teas so very milike that of his earlier and more active years, that the pub lic will scarcely oe astonished to 'hear that a little stimulus was applied to what seemed his flagging energies. We cannot help suspecting that the sole cause of Sir Charles Napier's soreness is, that he imagines he has fallen in the public esti mation. It must be mortifying to a man with a forty-Napier appetite for glory, to have taken out the most magnificent fleet England ever sent forth, and to have )een compelled to k b n r o i or n wo g mt it hea b nit ack !again without having achie red another and a more memorable publicSt . do J no t can d fully'A cr e. give him mw credit does Sir for C t h h a r e p l a e 41 . tience with .which he kept his ships from grounding • for his watchful care to bring all his fioatingflock back again in safety; and for his prudence in retiring before stone walls We yen turs to say that as much credit as this spoilt child of victory deserves he will receive ; although it be not exactly the cus tom to vote the thanks of Parlianient for the kind of services he performed during the last campaign. Admiral Dundas did not go to the Black Sea with so enormous a reputation as that which Admiral Napier born with him to the Baltic ; but he effected very nearly as much. He has quietly surrendered his command to another, and he at least will show better taste than to rail against his superiors because he does not receive the ovation due alone to some great achievement. Sir Chas. Napier ought to understand the full value of subordination. A professional grumbler in the House of Commons is in a very different position from an admiral on service; and the gravest affairs of a great nation ought not to be discussed in the spirit of a clap-trap speech to the electors of Marylebone. The professional jealousy of Sir C. Napier with regard to the interference of an engineer officer might be more excus able on a leas solemn occasion. As, however, it was a ques tion of attacking batteries, the Admiralty can scarcely be blamed if they wished the opinion of a man whose specialty that was. As to the " insulting and degrading letters," un til we bettei• know what they really were, and by what con duct they were provoked, it would not be right to express an opinion which might be prejudiced against Sir Charles Napier by the singular exhibition he has just made. With regard to his dictating to the Crown and the country the future exclusion of Sir James Graham from the Admiralty, that, we suppose, must be passed over in silence ; the threat having utterly failed to deter her Ma jesty or Lord Palmerston from again inviting the right hon. baronet to contribute his eminent services to the Government. Sir Charles Napier has made charges rather of a personal than of a public nature, and we have no doubt that in due time and season those charges will be met. Upon one other of the recommendations of Sir Charles there will be a painful division of opinion. When he Wilt of his name being " scratched from the Navy List," he presupposes his country men oblivious of the gallant services ho rendered in former years ; but when he hints at " not being hiuployed again," he indiscreetly raises a question silently revolSed, we have no doubt, in the minds of all who heard or read his speech, but which few Englishmen would desire to see publicly dis cussed. The speech of Lord Cardigan—which, in its calm dignity, formed so strong a contrast with that of the gallant admiral, although he, too, might have found a theme for consurs. —will have been read with an interest propor: to that already excited by the noble deeds to which it re.. forred. The Earl of Cardigan spoke little of himself, but much of the memorable charge which so .signalised the bora° courage of his troops, and which will have left his name to ntThe d in air p ese t 0 w o h s o t ni eri t ty he a c s h t . he c m te o r d o e f rn a t e yr ob o l f e En e f i lis h.s h C bo be en van pre sr; 4e naamiabie aspect may perhaps be surprised to find, that us the soldier of the highest stamp the keenest sensibility is not incompatible with an undaunted and inrefieeting bravery. (From the Morning Advertiser of this day. ) The speech of Sir Charles Napier at the Mansion house, ost Tuesday, hi which he so fiercely denounced the conduct of the Admiralty towards him while in the command of the Baltic Fleet, has created ' a great sensation. The place may not have been the most suitable that might have been chosen for such a purpose ; but certainly the revelations the gallant Admiral made were of a most startling nature, while the in vectives which he hurled at the head of Sir James Graham were of the most furious kind which ever proceeded from the lips of one man speaking of another. Never was such an ex. plosion witnessed. The matter cannot remain where it is. Sir James Graham is bound to give some explanations to the country respecting the very grave charges which Sir Charles Napier pro t o against him ; nor should an y ti me b e lost in the performance pro t on a gainst of that duty. The public not only has right to explanations, but it has a right to expect that they be made at once. THE SOUTH SEA HOUSE.—This well-known edifice be Threadneedle-street, with its Doric portico, its qua. drangle, with Tuscan colonnade and fountain, and ox. tensive vaulted cellars, is to be brought to the hammer —the Conservative Land Society having been already in the field to negotiate for the purchase by private cow. tract, in which mode, it appears, the directors are not empowered to sell. The South Sea Company was ori ginated by Harley, Earl of Oxford, in 1711, for the dia. charge of nearly ten millions of public debt, and is 1853-54 the South Sea Stock was converted or paid off. The building occupies .more than half an acre of ground, and its value for building purposes is of course omen. Mous.
