" We believe Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of stric ture during' the last twenty years has equalled, if, indeed, it has not surpassed, that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no mater of surorise that he should enjoy thd reputation of being a most dexterous and skilful manipulator with urethral instruments ; and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which bad previously been Impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of gratification on Mr. Courtenay's part to have achieved the reputation he has in this res ,ect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

Mr. Roebuck will move, this evening, in the House of Commons, the following resolution :—" That this house, deeply lamenting the sufferings of our army dur ing the winter campaign in the Crimea, and coinciding with the resolution of their committee, that the conduct of the Administration was the first and chief cause of the calamities which befel that army, do hereby visit with severe reprehension every member of that Cabinet whose counsels led to such disastrous results." General Peel, on M r. R oebuck ' s motion, will move the previous question. Colonel Adair will move, as an amendment to Mr. Roebuck's motion, "To leave out from the words in the Crimea,' to the end of the question, in order to add the words 'are, nevertheless, of opinion that the coun sels which determined the expeditio n to the Crimea were consistent with a bo!LI and slgaeious i; just co our Allies, and commensurate with the object s o f the War ; and, furth er , th a t p ers everance in a similar policy alone can afford hope of insuring an honourable and pernia not peace. 7! /Of • • . - • , 74 41 - 7 e • RI • •• • eto I ^ 4l . k .„ t ‘, „ ,\4 fi wa a;/ I -> puc.,; ) , 7 t, n, \. • ' _ y? fe4:1 1 4 4 ' ' \\ r - .e the , . 7 * / ~‘ .„, , .t n- P r • Itt - , 4 - Plt. of ✓ u 1 31 ,1 ‘ I , 7.7 , • V"'• 5 0= ' AtY. .

STAMPED .SD . lowing gentlemen, who retire from the direction arid audit in aircordance with the terms of tho deed of settle ment, being eligible for re-election, be re-elected, viz. Directors—Thomas Nathaniel Nathaniel Baker, Esq. ; the Rev. William Bean ; J,:me3 Firby, Esq. Auditors—Charles I/. Cooke, E-q. ;. William Taylor, Esq." Ile-thought that any arguments on his part to induce them t 6 re elect the gentlemen he had jest named would be super ituous, and that it would he impossible to find three gen tlemen in the city of London better fitted to fulfil the office of directors in this company: He lead great plea sure in moving the resolution he had just read. Mr. NICHOLAS entirely concurred in the observa,tions of the last speaker ; and he thought that those gentle. men who had borne the heat and labour of the day should be re-elected unanimously. (Loud cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution to ,the meet ing, and it was carried amidst general applause. Mr. W. TAYLOR said the resolution he intended to move was one was quite sure that would "meet with their approbation, and also one that would be a source of very greet pleaanre. It was One calculated.to cheer the minds of all present. (Cheers.) And was as follows viz , "That interest at the rate of 6 per ceuh. per annum be paid on the paid up-capital of the company." (Loud cheers.) Ho must say the company had got on much better than he could have anticipated from the short time it had been working, and its progress had exceeded his most sanguine expectations. With these few observa tions he begged, as one of the auditors of the company, to move the resolution he had just read: The Rev. 3. GEORGE cordially seconded the resolu tion. He thought they did well in establishing com panies like the present, as they were calculated to do a vast amount of good. (Cheers.) Considering all that had, been done he would not look back on the losses, but he looked forward to the success they were sure of meeting with—(cheers)—but they must use the means, and we were repeatedly told in a very good book to use means to secure the end. He had great confidence in the executive of this Company, and he placed the great est faith in this institution, as it wa3. one - based aeon equitable principles. (Cheers.) The men who adminis tered its affairs were men of discretion and discernment —(cheers)—and all he wanted his brother shareholders to do was to wait patiently—(hear)—and not to be in a hurry, as ultimate success was certain. (Cheers.) He felt sure there was a law in compensation that always brought about its results. Their losses would be re covered and something more, great profit would be in creased ; and, therefore, let us not only go boldly to work, but let us go patiently to work. (Loud cheers ) They had a beard of directors, and a manager who could not be exceeded, if equalled. (Cheers.) He begged again most cerdial'y to second the resolution. The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution to the meeting, and declared it carried unanimously. Mr. FLEMING (the chairman of the Southampton Board) said the resolution confided to him was to the following effect :—" That remuneration be voted for the expenses of the direction of the company in town and country during the past year free of income tax." (Loud cheers.) He was aware of the number of directors in London and Bath, but not in other places, and, there fore, he did not think that the sum proposed was too large. He hoped they would not imitate other offices and starve the directors. (Laughter.) He would neither starve directors nor would he starve a young business. At his Local Board he had officers who would do honour to any company, and he thought the money pro posed to be voted would produce the best results. He had great pleasure in informing the shareholders present that they were doing an excellent business at Southamp ton, and, although they started late, they were doing everything in their power to further increase the success he had already mentioned. The board, he assured them, worked together harmoniously and in happy concert with the London directors. (Cheers.) Mr. R. HODSON begged to second this resolution. He felt sure that it would not only be bad judgment, but false economy not to pay their directors well. (Hear, hear.) He believed that few of the directors, if any, could say that at the end of a year they were money in pocket. The sum they received was generally spent in the service of the company, or in travelling expenses ; and, therefore, he thought the sum moderate, and had great pleasure in seconding the resolution. The CHAIRMAN put the resolution to the meeting, and declared it carried unanimously. Mr. DODD said the resolution he had to move was as follows :—" That the thanks of the shareholders be ten dered to the directors for their past services, and that the thanks of the shareholders be also tendered to the auditors of the company." That their losses had not been greater depended upon their directors, who exer cised a wise discretion. He felt sure that their present position would be maintained, and that they would go on prosperously. One thing he felt quite sure of—and that was that the direction would do all in their power for the advancement of the company, and that they would do it wisely. (Cheers.) Mr. COOKE having seconded the resolution, and ex pressed the greatest confidence in the direction, manage ment, and prosperity of the company, it was put to the meeting, and, in like manner as the preceding ones, carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN, on behalf of himself and his brother directors, returned thanks for the compliment just paid them, Rnd begged to say that all the zeal and energy they possessed .would be used for the advancement and prosperity of the company. • (Cheers.) The Rev. W. BEAN had very. great pleasure in moving the resolution that had been placed in his hand. It was .—" That the best thanks of the shareholders be tendered to IL B. Sheridan, Esq., and the other officers of the company. In the first place, he had to thank them for the re-election of the retiring directors. It was a proof that the board possessed the entire confidence of the shareholders. In reference to their respected manager, he thought it would be superfluous for him to say any thing in his praise. They all know him, and appreciated him as his great talents deserved. He thought they were highly favoured in possessing such a manager— (loud cheers)—one whose whole thought was how to ex tend and improve the business of the company. He (the Rev. Mr. Bean) thought, looking to the future, much remained yet t o b e d one • an d th e sentiments they had heard that day were calculated to produce the very best possible results, namely, of bringing to the office a largo amount of new business, and consequently a great in crease of profit; (Cheers.) He hoped the business would eventually realise large profits. From the know ledge he possessed of the other offices, he begged to assure them that the position of their own was far better than he anticipated ; and when they met again next year he had not the slightest doubt but that he should have to congratulate them on the possession of a surplus far greater than ever was anticipated. (Cheers.) Now, with respect to the officers of the company. From his knowledge of all the officers he had the greatest confi dence in them, and he rejoiced to say that all of them had done their duty to the utmost ; and when they pos sessed the services of such gentlemen, all animated with but one desire—the extensio n o f the business of the com pany—he thought they ought to be satisfied. (Cheers.) All who had the pleasure to know Mr. Sheridan knew that he would put his shoulder to the wheel, but he knew more—he knew he'd move it. (Loud cheers.) Mr. FITCH said it afforded him unalloyed pleasure to second the resolution that had just been proposed by the Rev. Mr. Bean. The CHAIRMAN then submitted the resolution to the meeting, and it was enthusiastically carried amidst loud applause. Mr. SHERIDAN, in rising to return thanks, was greeted with renewed applause. He said he begged to thank the shareholders for the vote of thanks that had been so cordially proposed, and so unanimously passed. (Cheers.) Ile felt it was expected that the manager should say something with reference to the events of the year which was closed. The gentlemen who had, however, addressed the meeting—Mr. Fleming and others—had so well adverted to the affairs of the company as to leave very little to be said by the manager. (Hear.) He might, however, say that the first year of a company's operation was, of course, the most arduous one. They had to prepare their premises, to appoint their agents, to establish boards, and in every way to spread zsbroad those allurements that were to engage the attention of the public, and to result in business to the company ; and although a great deal of this preliminary work had been spared from the circumstance, as was well known, of the purchase by this company of the business of the old Times Fire Company, still a great deal yet remained to be done in order to perfect, to extend, and to increase ' the branches and agents of the company, and to intro duce to the public properly and effectually the assurance of plate glass. Ho was happy to say 615 agents had been appointed. It must also be remembered that a great deal of time had been occupied during the first year in filling up the share list of the company ; in other words, in laying the superstructure upon which the in stitution was to stand, and therefore it was that he felt he might really congratulate the shareholders upon the amount of business that bad been done, notwithstanding the matters to which he had referred, and which must necessarily divert their attention from the task of obtain ing business ; yet they would find few offices with an income of 6,30. E. 3s. 2d. per annum at the end of the first year. 'With reference to the expenditure the French were considerably before us, for by their system an agen t received the whole of the first two years' premituris: as a remuneration for the business he breught—tih,aute, to say, if the agent brought them one year's f pr i s a t ! but the company not only made him a present which thetatl t ri.. took from its funds a similar sum, with I_ sented him, thus giving him more than th w ey b received.

Other compa. nies ,no doubt. possessed good agents, but ho did not think that other . offices posseesed so many good agents as the Times Fire Assuranee, 'Company. (Loud - cheers.) Tip resolution, on being submitted to the meeting by the chairman, was carried unanimously. Mr. GARRETT said the rest iution that he had been called upon to move was one that gave him much plea sure. It was, " That the best thanks of theehareholders be teedei•ed to the surveyors of the company for their past Services." Mr. J. C. SPENCE raid . he thought it was hard that he should be called upon to second this resolution, after the fact that 'the company had declined to sieure his property. (Laughter and cheers.) However, it turned out afterwards that • the surveyors were right. H e begged to secon d th e reso l ut i on, and that most cordially. (Cheers.) Carried unanimously. • Mi. HOPCROFT here begged, on behalf of the agents of the company—aprevious resolution—to return thanks. He knew many of them, and they were gentlemen of great ability • and perseverance. Among their agents were to be found gentlemen who were not working for the pence that were allowed them, but gentlemen of large 'property and fortune. Represented as this com pany was, it could not fail in getting'a very large amount of businesl. (Laud cheers.) On behalf of ,the agents and himself he again begged to return thanks for the compliment that had been paid them. Mr. WARREN, after a high compliment to the boards of the company at Bath, Southampton, and G:asgoiv, moved "That the best thanks of the shareholders are due, - awl are:hereby given, to.the directors of the proe vinzial boards." (Cheers.) Mr. Jeessoiv, of .'N'troolvvich, 'had great pleasure in seconding.th e resolution just read. In establishing their new company they had dune nothing to excite the old companies. They had got the field, and it was at all times difficult to compete with them, but as to the sue. cess that awaited this company he bad no doubt. (Loud cheers.) In his district he had received promises of the most encouraging description. Mr. J. W. FLEMING wsuld occupy theirattention but for a very short time, but he could not allow so flattering a mark of approval to pass without remit k. The board of directors in the provinces, he was sure, would feel proud at the manner in which their services had been recognised. The board of directors at Southampton, he knew, would feel especially flattered. 'With respect to losses, he begged to say that in his district they had but two losses, and they together only amounted to 201..-- (cheers)—so that no bad business yet could be said to have come from Southampton. (Hear, bear, and cheers.) He highly approved of having boards of directors in the provinces, as he knew them to be highly beneficial, and by means of which they got business which otherwise would be lost to them. The Rev. J. THORESBY then proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman fur the able manner in which he had conducted their proceedings. The rev. gentleman then called upon all those present who approved of a vote of thanks to stand up. The whole of the gentlemen present then rose from their seats, and the resolution having been put, it was carried in a manner both highly characteristic and en thusiastic. The CHAIRMAN having acknowledged the compliment in very flattering terms, The proceedings, which throughout had been of the most satisfactory description, terminated. f_ , ;-4 v J ..orlii • ,Ttly, ar tii 1 it s t - haelor ed , kf ,- 0 : e , , t, „biz NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

L. 90N, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 17, 1855, SPhaT OF T.EtE PUBLIC JOURNALS. (Front the Times of thq's day.) Lord John Russell's "explanation" tells us what everybody knew, and does not even throw upon it a gleam of new light, or a tint of new colouring, In one sense alone it is ap explanation, and we make the remark with unaffected concern. It is impossible to read the speech without perceiving that in undertaking as he did with his wonted courage an affair of high diplomacy, Lord John Russell found it easier to acquire the in volved stile and the subtle casuistry of his new vocation than to attain any real success. He was not meant to be a diplomatist, and ever since he went to Vienna he has been encumbered with armour which be bad not yet proved. The only result of his practice has been to con found and stupify himself. Hence his painful efforts to bewilder us all, by telling his stcry over again with some little difference of word s , an d some - trifling addi tion of particulars. The Austrian proposal, he now tells us, had the sanction of the Turkish as well as the French and British Ministers. What of that ? When he left Vienna ho had reason to hope that Austria would form an alliance, offensive and defensive, with the Western Powers on tfie rejection of her proposal. It was his, business, of course, to be sure on this point ; and when it became certain, as it did in a few days, that Austria was only trifling with us, and meant the Proposal to bind us to lower terms and herself to nothing at all, he had nothing to do but to return the proposal with the remark that he had been misinformed as to its true character. 'Lord John Russell then talks rather metaphysically of the prin ciple of abstract war and that of abstract peace, and supposes a part of the world to he under the error of assuming that be (Lord John) roust be either for peace or for war • and if he is not st rong ly, a b so l u t e l y, expli citly for either, then that he is a doubledealer and so forth. To meet this supposed error Lord John has re course to the original terms of the third of the four points, which justify him in fad ug bank upon the solu tion of weir, when the solutions of peace had been ex hausted. Accordingly; when his lordship, on Mr. Milner Gihson's motion, inveighed .against Russia,- and worked us all up to-a resolute, unflinching, eternal re sistance to her scheme of universal dominion, it was only on the hypothesis that the last' peaceful solution had been rejected, and therefore war remained inevit able, eveiethough"Lord John had himself brought that peaceful solution from Vienna, charged to put it in the most favourable light. If this be Lord John's " expla nation," and it is the beat of our understanding, we are quite sure the single-hearted, simple-minded publie, will revert with a natural impulse to the much more familiar idea and much more intelligible fact that on Lord John returning from Vienna he appeared in public as the bitter, implacable foe of Russia, and so remained, not withstanding some private whispers here and there to the contrary ; and that it was not till some considerable reverses, and the prospect of worse, that he suddenly re vealed himself as the actual bearer and advocate of a proposal from Austria, which he still thought had offered an opportunity of peace. Till Lord John Russell can explain away this impression his explanations will only make the matter worse. Nor will he do himself the smallest service by being angry with his supposed misrepresenters. lie really has to thank himself for the vividly disagreeable effect of his recent policy. He is his own painter ; and, having painted himself first anti- Russian, and then equally auti_British, so far as regards the nate nal crime in the rejection of reasonable tenders, it is vain for him to argue with the spectators, and to say, "This line means nothing; that tint is merely neutr ; that dash is an accident." This is not the way in which impressions are formed or obliterated. We shrink with something like disgust from Lord John's catching words and chopping logic in last night's expla. nation ; and fall back upon the clear, unmistakeable exhibitions of his character, contradictory as they are, in his former accounts of his mission. So long as Sir E. B. Lytton confined himself to this subject he carried the house with him, for there is no body in that house who has not two distinct impressions of the successive characters assumed by Lord John Rue , sell. Nor is there anybody in that house who has not a very keen perception of the danger, or rather the cer tain fall of a Government that should include a man who could confess, and even boast, that be had tried to persuade it to peace in vain. This part of his subject Sir E. B. Lytton did well, but when lie attempted to involve the whole Cabinet in the guilt of Lord John's inconsistency and insincer;ty, and when, too, for this purpose, be endeavoured to insulate Lord Clarendon hum the rest, and to make them accomplices of the col league whose counsel they had rejected, but not the cor- . dial associates of the colleague whose letters they had virtually adopted, the house showed by its impatience a sense that the literary baronet had relinquished the fact for an ingenimis fiction. That the rest of the Cabinet, having silenced Lord John, put an extinguisher on the proposal he brought from Austria, and compelled him to join in a general denunciation of Russia, should look with indulgence on the rather rid culous figure he had made, was at least chivalrous ; and, considering all things, it might be an indispensable act of courtesy to incite him to remain even after this final exposure. But, as the Government would not be compromised, the sacri fice of Lord John is enough. Sir E. B. Lytton, how ever, had a speech t o ma k e, i f he had not made it al ready before Lord John Russell's resignation ; and he evidently preferred to address his philippic to the Minis ters who remained, instead of the one who has gone, and who had already made his submission. It was perhaps the fullest house, as well as the noisest debate, there has been this session. The gravity of the subject, on which each decision may possibly cost Europe myriads of lives, might have called forth more orderly treatment; bat Russia and Ministers will at last learn from the temper and proceedings of the house that, whatever the success of old and practised diploma tists or the comparative tyros we send to the Conferences, the people of this country, as represented in the popular assemblies, are of some stiffer material, and will assert the cause of truth, justice, honour, and liberty, even when it becomes momentarily and weekly endangered. ( From the Daily News of this clay. Had Sir Bulwer Lytton persisted in his motion the result of the debate would, no doubt, have effected the interests of the people. Sir Bulwer Lytton evaded a dis cussion of the broad general grounds on which Ministers have forfeited the public confidence. The very utmost he could have obtained, had a majority voted with him, would have been a change of Ministry. The successors whom that event would have given to the present Government might have persevered in its temporising and inexpli cable policy on the plea that no positive and express censure had been pronounced on it by the House of Commons. To have had the Duke of Northumberland and Mr. Stafford reinstated in the places now occupied by Sir Charles Wood and Mr. Bernal Osborne would certainly have been no loss to the nation, but as cer tainly it would have been no gain. The withdrawal of Sir Bulwer Lytton's motion leaves the field cpen to Mr. Roebuck, and in the motion of the hon. member for Sheffield the people have a deep and immediate interest. Mr. Roebuck does not seek to sink a fallen statesman deeper in the quagmire in which his own faithlessness and folly have settled him. He charges Ministers with all the individual suffering, and with all the national disgrace, which have beet, the consequence of their un utterable incapacity and profligate neglect of duty since the commencement of the Crimean expedition ; and he calls upon the House of Commons in its judicial capa city, solemnly to censure their obstinate perseverance in ill-doing. Ho includes all the culprits in his in dictment, and he aztaigns them for all their rnia deeds. He has challenged the great inquest of the Na tion to do its auto, or to stand by the consequences. The muttered demand of the people for a dissolution and general election is already making itself heard in low ominous whispers here and there, and will soon break out into one loud, general, irresistible clamour. On the other hand, the very rulers whose sins of omission and commission ai e condoned by the present House of Com mons, are anxious to get rid of it. Like desperate gamesters, they are ready to set their ail upon t,e cast of a die, and risk the return of a hostile House of Com mons on the chance of their being able, by Treasury and other sinister influences, to obtain one packed with a majority of their creatures. The common talk at Brookes's, and other Dom-Daniels of the faction in power is, that the present House of Commons is growing daily more unmanageable, and must be got rid of. It is well known that the Premier had made up his mind, in the event of his being worsted in the contest from which Sir Bulwer Lytton last night withdrew, to try the chances of a general election before he resigned. The respite granted to Ministers, in consequence of the reluctant self-sacrifice of Lord John Russell cannot be of long duration, The characters of all parties in the Govern meet have been so damaged by th e l ate shabby transac tions that their weakness has been immensely increased. A. dissolution is imminent, and the people are eagerly watching to see how every representative will vote nn Mr. Roebuck's motion. Every member who votes against that motion—or who shirks the division —will have to account for his conduct at the hustings on an early day. (Prom the Morning Herald of ais day.) The discussion which took place lait night upon Sir ' Bulwer Lytton's resolution cannot fail to produce a deep impression on Parliament and on the country. The papers on which the Government relied, to which Lord Palmerston had pointed on Thursday last with an air of triumph, have been read, and the result of their perusal and a consideration of the circumstances which have occurred since the correspondence was brought to a close, have been to deepen the distrust with which some of the most influential members of the Cabinet has long been regarded, and to involve the conduct of the re mainder in hopeless contradiction. The mysteriOus difference between the conduct of the French and Eng iish plenipotentiaries on their return is not cleared up. Lord John was disposed to take the same course as M. Drouyn de l'Huys—the only legitimate course left to either Minister after his expressed opinions at the Con ference. The First Minister of the Crown here, in order to secure a measure of Parliamentary scpport, resisted the resignation of Lord John itti*A,ll and having d e . to tained him in Ca!)in: ! or weciLs after his a!-..sent the Au,trian policy, conies down to the house and asks it to believe in his honeat resolve to prosecute the war with vigour, This flimsy attempt to practise upon the common, sense of Parliament and the,eountry -was pierced and exposed last night' with irresi , tible force by Sir Bulwer Lytton—" If the Premier api)roVed .of Lord Clarendon, how could lie express in approval of his negotiator ?" And if he did not s'pprove of that nego ciator how did:it hapnen,that'Lord Palmerston retainej him in his cabinet for weeks'after his retn,rn ? . There is no getting out of this dilemma. Lord PalMerston was wise enough not-to attempt an impossibility • but he did betray in his reply, and in the .uns.eemly violence of his. manner, the fact that Sir Bulwei Ly 4 ton had struck hard and home, and that it is much easier to blaster than to answer such an' indictment as that drawn up by the member for Hertfordshire: The debate of last night, short as it was, has effected an irxeparable irjury pion the reputation of ministers. _There is pn uneasy conscious ness that there is guilt somewhere; and that for all the warlike language of its chief, - . 1414 for all the straightfor ward despatches produced in the Foreign-office, the in terests of this country are ricit safe in the hands of our present rulers. Mr. Reehtick!s honest and inaniy avowal told deeply on the house, and will produce its effect. We have a right to know what are the real sentiments of our. rulers on the greatest question of the age. We cannot understand why we should be trifled with— we are.deter mined to know, in the language of.. Mr. Roebuck, " Who I are the traitors-in the Cabinet." • (prom the Morning Chronicle of this day. ) Last'night the House of Commons was invited to hear a further chapter of Lord John Russell's "explanations." As in February, the noble lord again spoke from the back benches. For the present we must taleeLiiid John Russell' s defence as we find it. He h a d gone to Vienna with the fixed intention of contriving the destiuction of _Passim' preponderance in the Black Sea, if possible, for all time to come. At the date of his departurd he was impressed with a persuasion that the object. was more likely to be obtained by arpis than - by. diplomaoy.- As the practical bearings of each ppint came out. &UR, ho pronounced from the first a decided opinion against the proposal. for settling the question of preponderance upon the prin ciple of counterpoise instead of that of limitation. Hie Government coincided in this view. Lord Clarendon sent the most invigorating Cespatehes, and the French Emperor -was known to be in complete concurrence on the subject. Thus jar, all was right and straightforward. From some time in March to the middle of April the negotiations had been conducted with vigour, if not with SUCC.32. The clauses of two points were battled over and arranged, and the terms of the third subjected to prolonged discussion; without making any concession to the adversaty, or surrendering one of the real objects of the war. Before his departure from Vienna, however, on one fatal day—the 15th of April—a change came over the mind of the noble lord. On the eve of that day, Lord John Russell retained in all their force his objections to the principle of a counterpoise. On the morrow he not only accepted it, but gave a pledge to Count Buol that he would urge its adoption on the British Ministry, to whom, moreover, he despatched at the same time an earnest entreaty not to reject the proposal until they had heard his pleas in its support. His re quest was accorded—his arguments listened to--the pro position deliberately discussed and rejected. So far in his narrative Lord John has told us nothing which we did not know before. But here comes the pith and substance of his vindication. He accepted the counter poise proposition upon the assurance—how conveyed he did not mention—that Austria would present it as an ultimatum to Russia, and consider its rejection a cants belli. His colleagues afterwards refused the proposal, because they had discovered that thissupposedassurance would never he fulfilled. This was the solitary plea on which he rested his defence. Sir E. B. Lytton recalled the house to the real point in question, which Lord John Russell bad limited to merely personal considerations. Here, he observed, was a contest on which the honour, the treasures, the best blood and dearest interests of the nation were staked. Here also was a ministry entrusted with the conduct of the struggle, - and professing the heartiest energy and most entire unanimity in the cause. Yet time after time the proofs became un deniable that different members of the Administration were in terly opposed to the war, on principle and in de tail. When, it would be asked, was this hypocrisy to cease ? To whom among the servants of the Crown was the public to look as a sincere believer in the faith they all professed, and a trustworthy agent in carrying on the conflict in which the sympathies of the country were so deeply engaged ? Lord Palmerston did not even at tempt to answer these questions. In a few sentences of mingled bluster and rant be did his best to deserve the character, which Mr. Disr ae li a ft erwar d s ass i gned to him, of being the " Patrician Bully" of the house. Ex pression was given to the apprehension which weighs most heavily on the public mind by Mr. Roebuck, when declaring his conviction that, notwithstanding the re moval of Lord John Russell, there were still " Traitors in the Cabinet." The immediate issue of the debate .is necessarily a blank. Lord Palmerston's Cabinet has escaped from the encounter maimed and victorious. But they cannot afford to repeat the operation at a similar price. One more such victory, and the Government is undone. (From the Times of this day.) We are very much disposed to look at Mr. Bouverie's explanations of last night in the light of an "allegory on the banks of the Nile." If we were in the same un pleasant predicament as Lord John we should be more tolerant of Sir Bulwer Lytton's well-poised accusations or of Mr. Disraeli's studied sarcasms than of the murder ous eulogy of Mr. Bouverie. This well-meaning gentle man—this good-natured friend, strikes the quarry, strikes straight, and strikes home, and then makes it an olject of ridicule to the bystanders. It is one of Lord John's young men who has done this—his peculiar suckling—a Levite of Chesham•plaee—a kind of Under-Secretary, as it were, whose business it was to hand thin slices of political bread and butter to the elderly ladies of the society, and to breathe with rapture the delicate air impregnated with the esoteric wisdom of Whin ism. Mr. Bouverie has "d one i t "—we ask pardon of our classical readers for the familiar phrase, but really there is none other which so well describes his act. Lord John lies low, shot by a Whig bolt discharged frotna Chesbam bow—nay, he is almost slain by an intimate partisan of his own. With Waller he may say— " That eagle's fate and mine aro one, Who, on the shaft which made him die, Espied a feather of his own Wherewith he wont to soar so high." We might almost write that the Whig Cmsar has received his death-stab from Mr. Under -Secretary Brutus, but we fear that if we talk of Brutus and Mr. Bouverie in the same sentence our readers will laugh at us with well nigh as good a will as the House of Commons laughed last night at Mr. Bouverie. It must have been an awful moment when doubts as to the excellence of his idol began to throb through the soul of this placid neophyte. What if, after all, Lord John were mistaken ? What, if he were self-willed, opinionated, perverse, and his doctrine a strong delusion? What, if it were wrong to blow cold at Vienna and hot in London, to coo like a turtle dove at one moment, and scream like a kite in search for prey the next ? Lord John a trimmer I Desdemona un chaste ! Brookes's in revolt like a mere assemblage of ordinary men, subject to the like infirmities and passions as their fellow-creatures, and Mr. Bouverie standing by with fiery brain to witness the awful catastrophe ! indeed, was a momentous position, but he girded up his loins for action. Mr. Bouverie was equal to the occa sion ; he sunk the Fire Worshipper in the Member for Kilmarnock, and blotted out this sun—this dazzling orb of day—from the o'er-arching firmament. If it were possible to be serious on such a subject we would fain ask Mr. Bouverie why could he not let well be, without marring it by ridiculous speech and super fluous action ? It was obvious that any politician, with a very moderate share of self-respect or taste for consi s . tency, could not follow Lord John through his political vagaries. When Ur. Bouverie came to the painful con. elusion that he could not support his patron in all his marvellous inconsistencies, his decision was th a t o f a man of sound j u d gmen t an d right principle. Had he, believing Lord John to be in grievous error upon so momentous a question, continued to support him, h e would have violated every public duty, and betrayed his constituents and his country. What he actually did we are somewhat at a loss to say, even after the most attentive consideration of his explanations last night. Ha told the house it bad been stated " that, on the part of a number of his colleagues not in the Cabinet, he represented to Lord Palmerston that they were prepared to resign their offices rather than oppose Sir B. Lytton's motion. So far as he was concerned, he begged to state most decidedly that that state- ment was not only not an accurate representation of facts, but that it was the very reverse of the truth." Very good, Mr. Bouverie, then, didn't tell Lord Palmerston that he and his colleagues not of the Cabinet were prepared to resign their offices rather than oppose Sir B. Lytton's motion, Now, on reading through his speech and disentangling his sen tences from the reporter's notes of " laughter," "ironi cal cheers," " renewed laughter," we find Mr. Bouverie admits that not only did he concur in the opinion of his colleagues that it was use l ess t o re sist the m o ti on, but that, although re f us i ng t o th rea t en resignati on i n his own person, he w as th e ac t ua l fugleman of th e mu tiny—he and no o th er conve yed the re b ellious message to L or d Palmerston, "I thought t h at in pursuing that c o urse I was acting as a t rue friend of tho noble lord. I offered to do what was most painful to me in the discharge of what I thought my duty towards the noble lord as a friend." Supposing Lord John, then, had not resigned—supposing he had done yet again that which he has often done before-- would Mr. Bouverie have stuck to him despite of his own convictions, despite of his fidelity to his fellows of the round robin—above all, despite of his duty to his constituents and his country ? Men of Kilmar nock, look to it ! The representative you have sent us loves Kilmarnock well, but Lord John Russell more. What cares he in theory so he retains the good graces of hio patron ? At the same time, he appears to have cut that patron's threat, and by a rare felicity to have succeeded in violating duties a pparently of the mo , t opposite character. it is not, of course, for 118 to follow Mr. Bouverie to his home, but we can imagine him at the conclusion of the scene to have rushed back to his house,-as Mr, Wiuldo (lid to the Georg and "Vulture : after delivering - his testimony iu the case of " Bardell v. - Pickwick "—and to-have been discovered by his friends at later period of the evening with his head buried well under the Cushion of the sofa., TIMES FIRE ASSUI?ANC.E COMPANY. .The first annual general meeting .of the shareholders in this society was held on Saturday, at the offices of the .1 1 mPany-, Lndgate-hill.

Captain Perrott having been moved to the chair, Thet CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, begged to thank the assembled shareholders for the honour they had done him. His first duty would be to call upon the manager to read the notice convening the Meeting. The advertisement having been read, The CHAIRMAN said the next thing to be done was to read the directors' report. . 'The report, which was then read, was as follows :-- " The directors have much pleasure in meeting the share holderii at this the first annual general meeting of the pro prietois of the company. ' "Tile directors lay before .the meeting a general balance sheet of the company's affairs, made up .to the 31st day of M arch j last. " Parsuant to the terms of the deed of settlement, the f0i1. , " directors retire, ,viz.:—The Hon. IFrancis Vil liers .P., T. N. Baker, Esq., the Rev. W. Bean, James Firby, Esq. ; and T. N. Baker, Esq., the Rev. W. Bean, James Firby, Esq., being eligible, present themsel ves f or re-eleclion. • " Under the powers conferred upon them by the deed of settlement, the directors have elected Capt. William Slarke,' of Cricklewood, Middlesex, and Herne Bay, Kent, Deputy Lieutenant of the County of Kent, to be a director of the company, subject to the approval of the shareholders. " The following geatlemen have been elected auditors of the company, viz. Taylor, Esq., C. H. Cooke, Es q ., subject' to the appr ova l o f th e shareholders. " The directors lay before the shareholders a tabular statement of the policy transactions of the year, viz. : The number of policies issued from the 25th February, 1854, to the 6th day of July, 1855, is as follows, viz.:— No. of. Policies. Amount Insured. Fire Plata Glass Income. 21,918 3 8 1,951 13 8 6,395 £1,105,386 - £3,899 17 4 " It will thus be seen that the total amount of new busi ness done by this company during its first year of opera tions htis been 6,395 new policies, producing an income of 3,839/. 17s. 4d., and representing the sum of 1,105,3861. insured; whilst the total income of the com pany, and the total number of policies issued (including the business purchased) and deducting policies lapsed, amount to : No. of Policies. Fire 5,035 Plate glass Income. 84,079 2 5 2,225 0 9 9,015 £6,304 3 2 " The directors congratulate the company on the vitality and business connexions of the company, exhibited in the large amount of business transactions. "The directors draw attention to the circumstance, that fire business has been declined during the year amounting to the large sum of 220,369/. " The losses during the year have been considerable, amounting to. the sum of 5,226/. 14s. 4d., but all fire offices report that they have suffered more than their usual loss during the past year. "The directors have determined upon refusing all risks of an unsafe nature, believing that it is better to do a small business for the first few years in safe risks, than by , a large and mixed business to risk the capital of the share holders. Your directors, therefore, anticipate compara tive immunity from loss in the current year. "Tee directors have declined but five proposals for plate glass insurance, while premiums to the amount of 71/. 18s. only have become lapsed. The directors feel that no fur ther statement is necessary to show the valuable nature of their plate glass business, the large increase of which they look forward to with hopeful anticipation. "The directors have also to report that they have ob tained for the company, by efforts during the past year and by the purchase of the old company, the services of 616 agents, whose residences and spheres of operations are situated in the most important parts of the three kingdoms. " The directors have also to report, that they have se cured for the company the co-operation of gentlemen of high standing in Bath, who have have formed themselves into a board for Bath and the surrounding district, and that similar boards have been formed at Southampton, Glasgow, and Birmingham. "The directors feel it their duty to draw. the attention of the shareholders to the fact, that the boards above named ate not merely ornamental boards, bnt that the members of them' spare no exertion, individually or col; lectively; to increase the business of the company,—that the fire policies which they forward are of the best charac ter,—further, that inasmuch as the individual members of these boards are gentlemen of large property, they have a great many fire policies of their own, which they transfer to this company at the earliest opportunity, and thus give to their friends and to the public a guarantee of tho ear nestness of their intention to spare no means to further the interests of the institution. " The directors are also engaged in the formation of other boards of similar importance, for the directors are im pressed with the conviction, that from these members of the body corporate the company may, in a very short time, obtain a large amount of the best fire business at the smallest possible expense. " The directors have also established agencies at Ham burgh and in Paris. They have already an increasing fire business from Hamburgh, at which place they are now en deavouring to extend the assurance of plate glass : whilst in Paris, in addition to plate glass business, the directors are negotiating for contracts with the great. French fire offices, for the re-assurance with this company of their sur plus risks, upon the understanding that this company takes no larger sum upon any one risk than the amount kept by the French office offering the re-assurance. " The directors suppose that most of the shareholders aro award of the enormous amount of fire business trans acted in France, of the great wealth of th e F renc h compa nies, and of th e comparatively safe character, of the risks insured by the French fire offices. At the same time, that plate glass assurance, if adopted by the French nation, presents a large and profitable field for the enterprise of a plate glass insuring company, it may also be stated that damage caused by war, emeute, or public tumult, will not be covered by the policies ; and that no fire business will bo taken from France, excepting that already accepted by the French offices ; thus taking the best guarantee that could be afforded of the respectable character of the in surance. " The directors urge upon the shareholders the impor tance of individual co-operation in furthering the business of the company, and beg to remind them that so large a number as 500 shareholders can, by their united efforts, easily secure a large amount of new business. " The register of directors' attendances is laid before the meeting, so that it may be seen with what attention they have watched over the affairs of the company." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said that this was a meeting, as most gentlemen present were aware, held in pursuacce of an adjournment that took place on the 13th day of December lasi. From the highly favourable report which they had just heard read he felt he need say but little, as they would see from that report that the business they had traneacted during the past year would bear comparison with the first year of any other office. They would see that their agents had brought forward a large amount of business of a very remunerative description. Tho provincial boards were composed of gentlemen of large property, and the busi ness they forwarded was of the best description. They had had some heavy losses, but every gentleman present must be aware that it was impossible to foresee events, and every company that expected to do a large business could scarcely do so and at the same time escape large losses ; they might as well expect a general whofAentered a battle-field to achieve a great victory without a loss of men. He (the Chairman), however, hoped that they had arrived at their largest number of losses, and that next year's report would show a decided improvement in that respect. (Applause.) The directors begged to im press upon the assembled shareholders the importance of individual exertion. (Cheers.) He need not detain them longer by any further observations, but before he resumed his seat he must say that, when he remembered that the balance-sheet had been well circulated amongst the proprietary, the numbers present to-day bespoke the high confidence and satisfaction in the present position and management of the company. (Applause.) He begged, therefore, to move "That the report now read, and balance-sheets therein referred to, be approved and adopted." (Cheers.) Mr. T. WILSON felt great pleasure in recouding the adoption of the report, and he did so as one of the largest, if not the largest, shareholder in the company. He had the greatest confidence in the ultimate success that would attend their efforts, and he entirely concurred in the observations of their worthy chairman that by pushing along they would find that profit increased and losses diminished. He said it afforded him great grati fication to second the motion of the chairman, and lie trusted that when they next met they might, from the nature of things, expect that they would have a much lar g er show of profit and a diminution of loss. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution to the meeting, and it was carried unanimously amidst great applause. Mr. J. M. HARE, in rising to move the second reso lution, said he could not boast of being the largest share holder present, but at the same time he must be allowed to observe that the interest he took in the success and prosperity of the company was equally great. lie bad heard the report read with much pleasure ; and lie thought that the losses mentioned therein during the past year were not larger than other offices. Indeed he kne re one office where the payments considerably ex ceede i the receipts. He begged to call their special at tention to the last part of the report ; and by doing ae there advised they would exhibit that generalship which had been so honourably mentioned. The resolutip.n . that he would propose was aslOllOWl3 :77_ 4 ! That the fol_ APPOINTMENTS. Captain the Hon H. Keppel to have the " good•ser vice" pension, vacant by the promotion of Capt.

A third of each parade company of the Royal Marine Light Infantry, now in barracks at 'Woolwich, have re ceived orders to be in. readiness for immediate em barkation. A large number of invalids from regiments in India arrived at the General Hospital, Fort Pitt, Chatham, yesterday afternoon, from Grav esen d. Captain Warburton, of the 15th Regiment (lately sta• tinned in Belfast), has been appointed aide-de camp to Major-General Gough. Accounts have reached Ireland announcing the death, at Scutari, of Captain the Hon. W. Hutchinson, of the 13th Light Dragoons, and second son of the late, and brother of the present, Earl of Donoughmore. The office of Superintendent of Medical Statistics, under the new system of registration of births, deaths, and marriages in Scotland, has been conferred upon Dr. James Stark, Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians. It is reported (says the Edinburgh Courant) that Lord Melville, commander of the Forces in Scotland, will go out to the Crimea to take the command of a division.
