The Royal assent was given this evening to the Con •olidated Fund (3,000,0001.) Bill, and the Consolidated Fund (20,000,0001.) Bill. The Royal commissioners were the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Argyll,.and Lord Stanley of Alderley. HILL'S ESTATE BILL. On the motion of Lord REDESDALE, Hill's Estate Bill was read a second time. PETITIONS. The Duke of ARGYLL presented several petitions from Scotland against the distillation of spirits from grain. . Earl FITZWILLIAM presented a petition from the Willi Riding of Yorkshire, praying for a searching in quiry into the mismanagement of the war, by which ' •isuch'a"disastrous loss of life was sustained. , ROMAN CATHOLIC PROCESSIONS. The Bishop of EXETER gave notice of his intention to-morrow to move for copies of the opinion given by her Majesty's law officers in Ireland, in 1852, relative to the construction of the statute prohibiting religious proces sions of Roman Catholic ecclesiastics; also for a copy of the opinions given by her Majesty's Irish law officers re cently in respect to their construction of the said act ; also for a copy of the proclamation of her Majesty's, published on the 15th of June, 1852, warning Ronan Catholic ecclesiastics taking part in such processions. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the Leeds Chambers on the subject of the law relative to accommodation bills. The Earl of CARLISLE presented six petitions from places in Lancashire and Yorkshire, praying for the rapes' of the law authorising the sale of spirituous Equine. The Earl of ALBEMARLE presented petitions from Bristol against the sale of spirits on the Lord's-day. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY'S SERVICE. Lord MONTEAGLE rose to call the attention of the house to the copies of the report of the 13th of January, 1855, as to the examination of candidates for the ap pointment of assistant-surgeons in the service of the East India, Company ; also to the report of November, 1854, on the examination of candidates for the civil ser vice of the East India Company ; and also to the letter as to the company's college at Haileybury, and the re gulations framed for the examination of candidates for appointments to the civil service of the East India Corn -- promised at the time of his accession to office, be contem plated one for relieving the Secretary at War from sub ordination to the Horse Guards ? Lord PALMERSTON replied that the Secretary at War never stood in such a relation to the Horse Guards. Mr. HUTT explained that he meant the Minister for War, not the Secretary at War. Lord PALMERSTON said that if the Secretary at War were not subordinate to the Horse Guards, a for tiori the Secretary of State would not be. EDUCATION OF OFFICERS IN THE ARMY. Mr. EWART wished to inquire of the Under• Secr etary of State for War whether there could be laid before the house any statement of the measures now adopted for further promoting the education and professional competency of officers in the army ; also of any mea sures adopted for giving useful and practical instruction to non-commissioned officers and privates? Mr. F. PEFL said he should have no objection to lay on the table a statement showing the condition of the regimental schoo:s, and the examination of (lacers previous to obtaining their first commission; but the larger measure contemplated la-t year, and which hall been in abeyance, was intended to be taken up by the Government. ---------- DIVISIONAL ORDERS TO THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY. Mr. LAYARD wished to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether any brigade and divisional orders had been issued in the army before Sebastopol, to the effect " that no questions must be answered by medical men attached to the forces, without permission from head-quarters ;" whereby medical men attached to the army were precluded from giving complete evidence to the commission sent out to the East to inquire into the state of the medical department ; also, whether it was true that Dr. Lawsot. had been appointed to the super intendence of, or to any other high employment in, the hospitals of Scutari, Smyrna, or Rhodes, and if so, by whose authority such appointment was made, and whether it had been sanctioned by the authorities at home 'I Lord PALMERSTON said be would reply to the first part of the question. No information of any such orders as those referred to by his hon. friend had been received by the Government ; but they h a d been in formed by private correspondence that such orders were issued. Ho (Lord Palmerston) could only conceive that the meaning of such orders must have been that the medical officers were not to place themselves in commu nication with the commission without authority to do so. He could not eonceive that the orders bad been given CO as to in any way interfere with the functions of the commission. Mr. F. PEEL, in reply to the second part of the question, said Lord Raglan had appointed Dr. Lawson to proceed to Scutari, where he was placed in a sub ordinate capacity under Dr. Cumming. This was after he bad been censured in the general order of Lord Raglan. [LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COAIMONS.—(THIS EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair shortly before four •'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a second time, and adored to be committed :—Fibre Company ; Fife and Kinross Railway ; Furness Railway ; Medical Benevo lent College ; Mid Kent and North Kent Railway ; Severn Valley Railway ; Stockport, Disley, and Whaley Bridge Railway ; Wem and Bronygarth Roads ; and Woolwich Equitable Gas. On th e motion for the second reading of the Caledo denial" Railway Bill, Mr. HADFIELD moved that it be postponed until Tuesday, the 2d April. Mr. LOCKHART objected to the postponement. Mr. COWAN advocated the expediency of putting an end to the ruinous competition which at present subsists between the Caledonian and the Edinburgh and Glas gow Companies. He bad no wish to see this bill thrown out, but, at the same time, he thought no injury would accrue to the company if this bill were postponed for a fortnight, particularly as a meeting of shareholders was about to be held at Liverpool, where the whole question was to be discussed. Mr. A. HASTIE could see no necessity whatever for a postponement. Mr. BOUVERIE had heard no good reason assigned yet for postponing the second reading for a month. The mition for adjournment was then withdrawn, and the bill was read a second time, and ordered to be corn raitted ; as was also the Edinburgh and Glasgew Ra way Bill. ROYAL COMMISSION. Mr. PULMAN, the Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod, appeared at the table and summoned the house to attend at the bar of the Peers to hear the Royal assent Lords' by commission to several bills, for which see Lords' report. LIVERPOOL IMPROVEMENT BILL. Mr. M. GIBSON moved that in the case of the Li verpool Improvement Bill, so much of Standing Order •No. 90 as relates to the appointment of members locally interested be suspended ; and that it be an instruction to the committee of selection to withdraw the local members already appointed to serve in respect of that • EWART thought it ought to be made a rule that local members should not serve on these private that Mr• RORSFALL objected upon principle to Liver pool being i ma d rule, that is ee l e an exception to the well-established to which the memb ers bill should serve on the committees mr. BRO Ttimi z,a , tr locality were referred. com said, this motion was the result of an understanding on Friday last, as this was quite ar exception to th: to motion. Mr. SOTHERON oppo sed class of local bills. Mr. BOUVERIE thou g ht til ,:' fticient ground had ° rn m s e u T t b e e e r s of Liverpool been made out for depriving the the motion. of Their right to servo on this cora Mr , DUNCAN and Mr. HADFIELD suppo rted Mr. LIDDELL and Mr. GREFNE opp ow aZ Mr. M. GIBSON said he had made ti:e motion acc ordance with what he thou g ht was an underatanin - in that no local member should serve on this emmittede g The house then divided, wben there appe e ared, For the motion Against it Majority NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. HAYTER, a new writ was ordered for Barnstaple, in the ream of Mr. Lawley, un seated on petition. THE CRIMEAN MEDAL. Mr. W. O. STANLEY gave notice that, on an early day, he should ask the First Lord of the Treasury, whe ther it was intended that the Crimean medals should corifer similar advantages upon those to whom they were awarded as the Waterloo medals. ARMY IMPROVEMENT. • ja r . HUTT wished to asked the noble lord at the bead-:of the Government whether, amongst those mea ly* for improving the condition of the army, which he c - ' _ , POLAND. Lord PALIVIERSTON, seeing his hon. and learned friend the member for Bath in his place, he wished to ask him a question. The hon. and learned member bad a motion on the paper for to-morrow night relative to Poland, and he wished to put it to him whether, in the present state of affairs, and considering that negotiations for peace were going on, he would not in the exercise of his discretion think fit to postpone his motion until a future day 2 (Hear, hear.) Mr. NUNN had no hesitation in acceding to the wish of the noble lord, supported as it seemed to be by the general feeling of the house. At the same time the question was ono in which the country took a great in terest, and he trusted, when a fitting time arrived, the house would think it a proper subject for discussion. VOLUNTEER - RIFLE CORPS. Mr. WILLIAMS wished to ask the right honour able baronet the Secretary of State for the Home De partment, whether he had received any application from any part of the country volunteering the formation of rifle corps, and if so what answer had been returned ? Sir G. GREY said his'noble friend who preceded him at the Home-office received three such applications, and ho had himself received one ; none of these offers, however, has been accepted, but he should mention that none of the offers were for v , lunteers to serve abroad. DR. MAYE R. Mr. PIERCY wished to ask whether it was t rue as was asserted by the correspondent of a daily news paper that Dr. Mayer, a German gentleman had beeli appointed to a high medical appointment in the.army through the patronage of Prince Albert, although he knew little or nothing of medical science ? Mr. S. HERBERT said he was responsible in some measure for the appointment because he recommended Dr. Mayer to his noble friend Lord Panmure. Same great misapprehension, however, existed out of doors with regard to this gentleman. Ho was an Englishman, born at Norwood, and he was educated at Hammer smith. After studying at Guy's, he became a member of the Royal College of Surgeone, and ho had been at the head of several medical establishments in Norfolk Island and Van Diemen's Land. He was, in fact, well and fa vourably known at the Colonial-office ; while with re gard to one part of the report, the gentleman himself had informed him that he had never had the honour or pleasure of seeing Prince Albert in his life. (A laugh.) MILITARY EDUCATION. were comfortably provided for during transport,and when they arrived at Varna the men were well, and did not become sick after landing. He did not know when they embarked at Varna where they were going, although, from circumstances that occurred, 'he had no doubt that they were going to attack the enemy somewhere in the north. The state of his division was by no means bad at that time, but THE LATE CZAR, AND THE MINISTERS. still there was a certain amount of depression of spirits amongst the troops, arising from the circumstance of their having been so loug inactive. He arrived at Varna on the 18th June, and remained there until the Ist Sep tember, during which time he moved his camp three or four times. He thought it was on the 12th or 13th Septem ber that he arrived at Eupatoria. Some of the battalions had knapsacks, but he believed the majority had not. An order was issued from head-quarters, but there was a great deal of irregularity about the matter. The Battle of the Alma took place on the 17th or 18th of Septem ber, but he did not accurately remember. The French took similar means to ours for the care of the wounded, but he did not think they were so long in making the necessary provisions as the English. We managed to get up the teas by the 29th September. The weather was fine, but the nights were cold, and the troops suffered much in consequence. The fuel became very damp. There was brushwood, which, in fine wea ther, ‘s as available for fuel, but when it rained it became perfectly useless. No firewood was served out to the troops. The clothing of the troops was becoming very indifferent when he left. After a succession of cons* plaints of various kinds, he succeeded in getting new clothing for his troops. The gentlemen sent out to con duct the commissariat department were utterly incom petent to their duty. Altercations consequently arose, and at length he had the good fortune to get a competent man in the person of Mr. Power, and efficient officers were afterwards attached to his di vision, which accounted for its favourable condition in comparison with others. He could not say that there was any great deficiency in the medical department. He bad frequently known his horses to be without food for a day in consequence of the difficulty of getting receipts signed—a form which was observed with groat strict ness. He was not one of those who believed that Varna was a very unhealthy place. Of course, if large masses of troops were brought together in any spot in hot weather disease must follow. In reference to the French transports, they were very far inferior to our own—indeed there was no comparison between them. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Mr. RICH said he had been most anxious to move for a select committee to inquire into the subjtc; of mi litary education in this country, but owing to the recent Ministerial thanes he had been unable to Ming such a motion on ; and now, seeing that there was no prospect of introducing it before Easter, be was compelled to take advantage of this opportunity to introduce the subject to the house. A great change, he thought, wai about to be made in - the organisation of the army, a change which had been brought about in some mea sure by the disclosures of the press in connection with the war. There were some people who found fault with the press for disclosing the condition of our army with so much freedom ; but he, for one, did not r hare in these censures, because the press had done much good in exposing abuses and suggesting reforms in the military department. This country stood the foremost amongst the civilised countries that cul tivated the arts and sciences, but, nevertheless, recent experience had proved that in the art of war we were lamentably deficient. The Levy, however, pre sented a sing her contrast to thearmy. In the navy the strictest discipline was preserved, and the men who adopted it as a profession were trained to it almost from childhood, but not so in the army, and he wanted to know why it had not or should not be so ? He was told that there was no fit school in this country where the military art could be studied. The hon. gentleman tten referred to the fact that pro motion came from pnrcbase or from fay our, and not from merit, and thus one of the greatest incentives to exertion and distinction was lost. Then as to appointments on the staff, he defied the license to say that staff appoint ments were fairly and impartially made, and with a re gard to the previous character and service on the part of the individual selected. (Hear.) He instanced ca,es in which officers who had never been under fire ha I re ceived their promotion whilst veterans who had ap peared years and years in the active service list were passed over. Under such eireumstauees could they feel sun rised at the inefficiency of our iteff ? Well, how should this be remedied I Why, by adopting the same regulations as were observed with regard to the navy— by educating our officers for the duties they were to perform. Those who followed particular professions or particular avocations were generally fitted by espe cial eduction previously for the nature of their duties, but in the army no such preparation was demanded. Let officers pass through a certain routine of education before they were entitled to their oemmistions and then they would be qualified at the outset to the performance of their functions, arid, as they progressed in experience, for promotion from rank to rank. With regard to the Military College, the junior department was devoted to cadets, and the senior department of it was designed for the qualification of officers for staff appointments, and on completing their curriculum of exAmination in it a cer. tificato was given to them, stating that they were so qualified. Well, was this certificate a mockery or not ! It was a decided mockery, inasmuch as it was never acted upon when those appointments were made. But the college itself had been allowed to dwindle away, and at present there were only about 150 cadets and officers under its care ; and this arose not from the fact that the college was expensive—for, in fact, it was self-sup porting—but for the simple circumstance that every circumstance awarded by it to merit interfered with the patronage of the Horse Guards. In the officrs of an army there were two classes; the first composed of scions of the aristocracy or heirs of estates, who had entered the service with no intention whatever of making it their profession for life; and the second of young men of intellect and talent, who had adopted the service in the full hope of rising in it to distinction. Looking, then, at the promotions, and bearing this in mind, it would be found that the first-class were those who were invariably promoted by the Horse Guards, whilst the latter were too poor to command themselves such patronage as their more fortunate brethren, though their acquirements and capabilities not oily entitled them to preferment, but rendered them far more deserving of it. All he asked were that the military college should b e p l aced on an equal footing with the naval college at Woolwich, and that similar inducements should be held out to students after they had studied there for a certain period of years, not only in the way of simple boek-learning, but also all the science of the profession they intended to adopt. By that means only could we hope to possess a more efficient and properly educated class of officers in the army. (Hear.) He should, therefore, hear with great satisfaction a statement for the Secretary at War, to the effect that the Government would take this matter into considera tion. The following letter has been addressed to the Editor of the Times : Sir,—l commit into your hands the following letter and memorandum for publication. It is fit that the people of this country should know that at the commencement of the diplomatic dispute with Russia Ministers were made aware of the state of mind and prospect of life of its mighty ruler. The discussions carried on with him ' were shaped on the usual metaphysical grounds. They bhould have been guided instead by a knowledge of the physical condition of the disputant. At every confidential interview with the British re presentative up started the monomaniacal idea of " l'homme malade—gravement malade," which was often repeated, "not without excitement," added Sir George. If this fact did not of itself open the eyes of Ministers January and February of 1853, the timely professional warning conveyed to them in theannexed letter not long after might, one would think, put Ministers on their guard, albeit the warning came from an humble indivi dual. Who knows how many thousand lives since sacri fice'. and millions of money squandered might have been saved if, on the conviction of the truth of the warning received, instead of continuing for months together all sorts of unprofitable arguments, peremptory language and peremptory action had been employed, leaving no time to the imperial and real " sick man" for th e inlic tion on his own devoted people and those of the three nations allied against him of that irreparable mischief which he has been suffered to perpetrate ! It was thus that Pitt dealt with Paul. But, alas, there is no Pitt iow. Mr. F. PEEL rose to reply, and was [LEFT SPEAKING] At ten minutes before four o'clock it was announced ,hat the Speaker was at prayers, and the inquiry was adjourned. For regularity's sake, I mention that three pas sages in the following letter, which was strictly confi dential, are omitted. The first was the expression of a purely religious opinion, which, though awfully appro priate at this moment, might be considered presumptu ous. The second detailed the grounds on which during my residence of several weeks in St. Petersburg, in 1849, in attendance on a high personage at the Imperial Court, I formed the medical opinion which I deemed it my duty to convey to the Government at home ; their publication at this moment would be injudicious. The third passage was an illusion to my ill-requittad service in the navy, which cannot interest your readers.—l have the honour to be your obedient servant, A. B. GRANVILLE, M.D. 1, Curzon-street, Mayfair, March 3. "CONFIDENTIAL LETTER TO VISCOUNT PALMERSTON, DATED KISSINGEN, BAVARIA, JULY 6, 1853. "My Lord,—Failing in my endeavours to meet with your lordship at the appointed interview at thee House of Commons on the 22d ult., at which I proposed to make a viva voce communication of some importance to the Government, as I thought, concerning the present politi cal discussions with Russia, I stated, in a second note writ ten at the moment of my departure from England for this place, that I regretted the disappointment, inasmuch as the subject of the intended communication, from its delicate nature, did not admit of being committed to paper. " I think so still. But, on the other hand, the ne cessity of the Government being put in possession of the communication appears to me to become every day so much more urgent, that if it is to be of any use it must be made at once, or it will fail to direct Ministers in time, as I think the communication is capable of doing, in their negotiations with Russia, and in their estimation of the one particular element which, I apprehend, has first provoked, and is since pushing on the Emperor in his present reckless course. " Mine isnot a political, but a professional communi ' cation therefore strictly confidential. It is not conjec tural, but positive, largely based on personal knowledge, and partly on imparted information accidentally obtained —it is not essential that I should say from whom, for I take the responsibility of the whole on myself, inas much as the whole but confirms what I have myself ob served, studied, or heard on the spot. " The Western Cabinets find the conduct of the Em peror Nicholas strange, preposterous, inconsistent, un expected. They wonder at his demands ; they are startled at Lis state papers ; they cannot comprehend their context ; they recognise not in them the clear and close reasoning of the Nestor of Russian diplomacy, but rather the dictates of an iron will to which he has been made to affix his name ; they view the Emperor's new international principles as extravagant ; the doubt if he be under the guidance of wise counsels. Yet they proceed to treat, negotiate, and speak, as if none of these perplexing novelties in diplomacy existed on the part of a Power hitherto considered as the model of political loyalty. The Western Cabinets are in error. "The health of the Czar is shaken. It has become so gradually for the last five years. He has been irritable, assionate, fanciful, more than usually superstitious, capricious, hasty, precipitate, and obstinate withal—all from ill-health, unskilfully treated ; and of late deterio rating into a degree of cerebral excitement, which, while it takes from him the power of steady reasoning, impels him to every extravagance, in the same manner as with his father in 1800 ; as with A'exander, in Poland, in 1820 ; as with Constantine, at Warsaw, in 1830 ; as with Michael, at St. Petersburg, in 1.848-9. Like them, his nature feels the fatal transmission of hereditary in sanity, the natural consequence of an overlooked and progressive congestion of tho brain. Like them, he is hurrying to his fats, sudden death, from congestive disease. The same period of life, between 45 and 60 years of age, sees the career of his fated family cut tsort. " Paul, at first violent and fanatical, a perfect lunatic at 45 years of age, is despatched at 47, in 1301. Alexander dies at Taganrog in December, 1825, aged 48. For five years previously his temper and his mind had at times exhibited the parental malady by his capricious and wayward manner of treating the Polish provinces. He died of congestive fever of the brain, during which he knocked down his favourite phyeician, Sir James Wylie, who assured me of the fact at St. Petersburg in 1828, because he wished to apply leeches to his temples. " Constantine, eccentric always, tyrannical, cruet, dies at Warsaw suddenly in July, 1831, aged 52 years, after having caused rebellion in the country by his harsh treatment of the cadet officers. I saw and conversed with him on the parade and in his palace at Warsaw in 1828. His looks and demeanour sufficiently denoted to a medical man what he was, and what his fat e wou ld b e. It has been said that he died of cholera ; again, that he had been despatched like his father. The physician in chief of the Polish Military Hospitals assured me some years after that he Lad died apoplectic and in a rage. " Michael, after many years of suffering from the same complaints which afflict his only surviving brother —en larged liver, deranged digestion, and fulness of blood in the head—became in 1848-9 intolerably irritable, violent, and tyrannical to his own officers of the artillery and eu gineers service, of which he was the supreme chief. In July, 1849, he consulted me at St. Petersburg. It was after he had passed in review the whole train of artillery which was leaving the capital for Hungary, at which re view I was present and near him, and witnessed scenes of violent temper towards generals and aides-de-camp hardly equalled in a lunatic asylum. I found him as de scribed above. I advised cupping, diet, non-exposure to the sun and fatigue, the adinieistratim of suitable medi cines, and the cessation from drinking steel mineral waters, of which he was fond ever since lie had been at Kissingen. His physician, the younger Sir Jas. Wylie (himself since suddenly dead), assented reluctantly, but did not carry my advice into execution. The Grand Duke, in the state he was, unrelieved by any medical measure or proper treatment, joined the army, rode out in the sun, and fell from his horse apoplectic in Septem ber, 1849, aged 48. " To complete this disastrous picture of the grand children of Catherine, their mother, Maria of Wui tem berg, a most exemplary pr;ncesss died apoplectic in November, 1829, scarcely more than 65 years of age. The attack, mistaken for weakness, was treated with stimulants and bark by her physician, Ruhl, and bleed ing was only had recourse to when the mistake was dis covered—but too late to save. The meek and mild Elizabeth had but a short time before followed her im perial partner, Alexander, to the grave, in the still fresh years ef womanhOod, 50 years of age. "During my second sojourn in St. Petersburg, in 1849, for a period of tea weeks . . . . What the opinion was of the Emperor's health—what acts of his came to my knowledge, which bespokeeccentricity—what were the sentiments of his physician, Dr. Mandt, who, homcepathist as he is, and exercising a most peremptory influence over his master, leaves him, nevertheless, un relieved, except by mystical drops and globules.—what transpired of political doctrines and opinions, or, in fine, what I gathered afterwards at Moscow on all co-equal points, must be left to your lordship's conjecture—not difficult after all I have divulged. To go further would be like a breach of trust, and of that I shall never be guilty. " In all I have related there is nothing that had been committed to me as a privileged communication ; while the imperative requirements of the moment calling for its immediate divulgement I hesitate not to make it, under the firmest conviction that my fears and anticipa tions will be surely realised. "If so, then the method of dealing with an all-power ful Sovereign so visited must differ from the more regu lar mode of transacting business between Government and Government. For this purpose it is—namely, to put her Majesty's Ministers on their guard accordingly, that I have determined to place in your Lordship's hands the present professional information, which must be considered as so strictly confidential that I shall not sign it with my name. " That I have selected your Lordship as the channel of my communication rather than the Minister ef Foreign Affairs, to whom more properly it should have been ad dressed, will at once appear natural to your Lordship. In my eapacity of once, and for some years, your Lord ship's physician (though not now honoured with that title), your Lordship has known me personally, and is convinced that what my pen commits to paper may be taken as coining from an honourable man and your obe dient servant." N.B. An acknowledgMent of the receipt of this letter came by return of post Lord Palmerston 's handwriting. ARMY BEFORE SEBASTOPOL COM- MITTEE--(THIS DAY.) (Continued front our first edition.) Mr. Dundas, M.P., was the first witness examined, but his ev id ence did not go beyond statements he had already made in speech in the house as to the results of his o b servations on a visit he paid to Balaklava, and the camp in December last —and had reference chiefly to the defective supply of forage, clothing, food, and fuel to the camp, and the sickness and mortality amongst the troops.

The vacancy created in the representation of the bo rough of Halifax, in consequence of Sir Charles Wood's acceptance of the post of First Lord of the Admiralty in the reconstructed Government, was duly filled up on Saturday by the re-election of the right bon. baronet without opposition. There bad indeed been some talk, when the intelligence first arrived that the vacancy had arisen, of Major Edwards, who figured as a candidate at previous elections for the borough, being again started to contest the seat with Sir Charles, but subsequently the friends of the gallant major met and resolved that it was inexpedient for him, in the present critical aspect of affairs, to press his claims on the suffrages of the consti tuency ; and all idea of offering any opposition to the right hon. baronet's return was therefore abandoned. The nomination ,took place in the Manufacturers' Piece-hall—a large quadrangular building situated in the centre of the town, and enclosing a spacious open equare. At 11 o'clock Sir Charles Wood, accompanied by Mr. Joshua Appleyard (the mayor and returning officer), the town clerk, and several of his principal supporters, ar rived or• the scene, and took up their position on a kind of balcony, which served as hustings—the spectators, who did not exceed 1,000, being congregated in the open space below. The weather had been showery all the morning, and the rain fell at intervals during the speak ing, lending to the proceedings—never very lively or exciting at an uncontested election—an unwonted degr;e of tameness and insipidity. The writ having been read and the other usual for malities completed, The MAYOR explained the object of the assemblage, and bespoke an impartial hearing for every elector who might wish to address them. That was, he said, the earliest oppo-- tunity at which theelection could be held, and, although it was their market-day, yet, in the present state of public affairs, he did not think he would have been justified in deferring the nomination any longer. They were all aware of the startlingnewsthat had reached them within the last few hours of the death of the Czar ; and doubt less there were gentlemen present who would express their opinions on the probable bearing of that event upon the prosecution of the war. (Hear, hear.) Mr. J. CROSSLEY then stood forward to nominate the Right Hon. Sir Charles Wood as a fit and proper person to represent Halifax in Parliament. The right hon. gen tleman had repreiented that borongh for the last 22 years, during which he had repeatedly held high office under the Crown. He bad lately been entrusted with the administration of our vast Indian empire, and now he had been called by his Sovereign to a post scarcely second in importance to any other in the State, but to the efficient discharge of the duties of which he believed the right hon. baronet was fully equal. The long expe rience they had had of the services of Sir Charles Wood rendered any eulogy of his character or conduct quite unnecessary, and be therefore merely begged to propose that they should give him a renewal cf their confidence as their representative. (Cheers.) Mr. J. BALDWIN seconded the nomination, observing that the absence of a contest on the right hon. baronet's acceding to so important an office as that of the head of the Admiralty in a time of war was ample evidence that the electors of Halifax were satisfied with his conduct, both as their representative and as a Minister. The right hon. gentleman's object had always been to serve his country, in doing which he bad best served his con stituency ; and no doubt he would still continue to fol low the same meritorious course. (Hear.) No elector presenting himself to propose another can didate, the Mayor declared Sir Charles Wood to have been duly elected. Sir C. WOOD then stepped forward to address the elec. tors, and was received with faint marks of applause. He said—Gentlemen, it is now my pleasing duty to return you my warmest thanks for the honour which you have done me, and I assure you, from the bottom of my heart, that in my opinion a higher distinction cannot be con- ferred on - a British subject. I well remember the pride with which 22 years ago, as Mr. Crossley has told you, I was first returned one of the members for an important town in my native county ; but you will readily believe how much that pride has increased when, during the whole course of those years, I have received such re peated proofs of your continued canfidence, and when now, fur the ninth time, I am returned a member for Halifax. (Hear.) Gentlemen, lam the more gratified on the present occasion because I was more than usually anxious for this last testimony of your approbat on. I need but shortly advert to the circumstances which have led to my now appearing before you, You are aware that Lord Aberdeen's Government resigned in conse quence of a vote of the House of Commons. Yon are also aware that Lord Derby, to whom her Majesty ap plied to form a Government, failed in the task. Lord Derby addressed himself to Lord 1 3 ,Irnerston, the head of the present Government, to Mr. Gladstone, and to Mr. Sidney Herbert, to ascertain whether they would join a Ministry which he might form ; and, upon their refusal to do co, he did not feel sufficient confidence in the mem- hers of his own party along to warr.►nt him in proposing them as an efficient Government to the country. Lord John Russell was likewise commissioned to construct a Government; but he too failed; and her Majesty then empowered Lord Palmerston to form a Government, as almost the last resource, lest we should be left without a Government at all. (Laughter.) Lord Palmerston's Government was constituted ; but, alas ! within some 10 days of its formation, three of its most important mem• bets retired. (A laugh.) I cannot but acknowledge that Mr. Gladstone,in the office of Chancellor of the Exche quer, and Sir . Graham, in the post to which I have been since eaaed, discharged the functions of their respective departments most efficiently, and I regard it as a great misfortune that they should have considered it to be their duty to leave those posts. (Hear.) But, under these circumstances, however arduous the task assigned him, Lord Palmerston did not shrink from the perform ance of what he believed to be his duty to the Queen and to the country, namely, to form a Government— the best that he could constitute—in order ti carry on the business of the ciuntry in the present difficult state of public affairs and to promote and guard its be-t inte re,t4. In that Government the noble lord called upon me to undertake the post which had been vacated by Sir James Graham. Gentlemen, if I had only con sulted my own wishes and inclinations I should have declined that offer. I had filled for the last two years no unimportant office in the Government, and had been charged with the administration of an immense empire, comprising nearly 150,000,000 of people. I had car ried through a great measure for the reform of the go vernment of that empire. I had advanced many pro jects for the improvement of its internal administration, for the education of its people, for the development of its trade, for the extension of its public works, and the construction of its railroads ; and you may easily sup pose that I was naturally anxious to watch over the operation of those measures which, though framed at home, must, nevertheless, depend in a great degree for their success upon the mode in which they are exe cuted in the coutry to which they are applied. I had a natural desire, therefore, to protect., as I may say, the welfare of my own children. At the same time, however, I felt bound to sacrifice my own personal pre dilections if they stood in the way of the discharge of a public duty. Lord Palmerston and my colleagues thought it was desirable that I should take charge of atioth r department—one most important at all time-, bid, above all, in time of war, more important than sny other—namely, that which is intrusted with the admi nistration of the i•aval affairs and the direction of the naval resources of this country. With the business and duties of that department I was not wholly unacquainted for I had for some four or five years occupied the post of Secretary to the Admiralty ; and I felt, under such cir cumstances, that I should not ho justified in consulting my own wishes, my own ease, or my own inclinations, by remaieing in the office which I held, and refusing to accept one in which my colleagues thought my services might be more useful. I never from any personal con sideration have declined to c 1..) that which I believed to be my duty. I felt that I was a public servant. As such you nave trusted me—as such you have sent me to Parliament, and I am convinced you would consider that I had done wrong if I bast declined that which I was called upon by ray Sovereign to undertake. Gen tleman, I fairly say that I was unwilling to put you to the trouble of another election, but I felt confident that if you believed I was doing my duty you would approve and sanction my course by your suffrages. (Rear.) I confess that I was anxious about the result of this elec tion, and I am mot) than usually proud of the honour of being returned by you to Parliament from the gratify ing circumstances which have attended that return. am most grateful to you for this renewed proof of your confidence. I thank those of my friends upon whose support I felt I might reasonably rely ; and I also owe my best acknowledgments to those who have on former occasions been my opponents, but who in the present juncture of affairs resolved to waive their party differences, and for the sake of the public interests to acquiesce in my return. (Hear, hear.) I have there fore to promise to the entire body of electors of Halifax, and not to the electors alone, but to its inhabitants ge nerally, that I will not swerve from that course of con duct which has hitherto procured for me your con fidence ; and that while I devote my best efforts to promote the interests of the country at large, I will not neglect those of this borough and its neigh bourhood. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, I have so often on former occasions stated to you my opinions upon almost every subject of public importance that I will not de tain you, upon what I am reminded is your market-day, by adverting to those topics at present, and I need the less de so considering the length at which I had to tres pass on your attention at the meeting on Thursday even ing. I will only say that lam glad to believe, from all the most recent accounts that have reached us, that the state of our gallant army in the Crimea is rapidly im proving. The army have received that assistance and those comforts and means of protecting themselves from the inclemency of the weather, and against disease, which, through the bounty of this country and the sym pathies of their fellow-citizens at home, have been sent out to them ; and I repeat that all the latest reports agree in assuring us that the won't is now over, and that the troops are improving in their condition. In spirit and in gallantry they have never failed—(cheers) —and I say that, sad and grievous as their sufferings have been, the heroism and prowess they have displayed—a prowess and a heroism of which we have never doubted—have only been equalled by the 'patient endurance with which they have borne up under those calamities which are harder to Lear than the dangers of actual conflict, be cause they are not encountered under the satne excite ment or the same enthusiasm. (Cheers) Your worthy Mayor has alluded to a circumstance, the intelligence of which was only received here last night, and which can. not, I think, fail to exercise a considerable influence upon the affairs of Europe. (Hear, hear.) It is difficult for us to speculate as to what may happen in conse quence of the death of the Emperor of Russia, and God forbid that we should rejoice at any man's being suddenly called away from this world ; but if ever calamities mere justly to be attributed to the will of one man, I think the present war, with all its fatal consequences, 4 to be a l . _ . cribed to the overweening ambition of the Emperor of Russia. It was necessary to resist his aggressive pro jects of aggrandisement, which threatened the film. t'e3 and the independence of his ncighb.ur the Sultan, and which, if successful, would have placed the Czar in • • a position to exercise a predominant influence over the affairs of Europe. It was necessary, I say, to resist, and until our resistance is made effectual, it was impe rative upon us, at whatever hazard, to prosecute the war. But at the same time we should be wanting in our duty to the country if we neglected to avail ourselves of the first opportimity of securing an honourable and a safe peace. (Hear.) I cannot but hope that the important event which has just occurred may tend to facilitate this desirable consummation ; and if that should be the re sult, grieved as we must be at any fellow-creature being suddenly summoned to his last account, yet the death of one man may prove productive of inestimable blessing to Europe and to the rest of the world. (Hear, hear.) That such may be the issue may God, in his mercy, giant ; and wi h the expression ..t this and thank ing you ag..in, gent'emen, for your great kindness, I now ' take my leave of you al!. (llcar, hear.) Thanks were then voted to the mayor, and the con . courEe immediately dispersed. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. ROME CIRCUIT.—HERTFORD, MARCH 3. GOLDHAIS (CLERK) V. EDWARDS (CLERK). This action was brought by the Rev. Mr. Goldhatn, the rector of Caldecote, and vicar of Newnham, in this county, against the Rev. Mr. Edwards, the chaplain of the Central London District School, Norwood, to re cover a sum of 3001. for repairs required in the rectory house at Newnham. Mr. Chambers, in opening the case to the jury, ex plained the nature of the action, and it appeared that in August, 1853, the plaintiff, who then filled the office of chaplain to the above school at Norwood, was desirous to exchange for some other benefice, and with that view he inserted an advertisement in the Ecclesiastical Gazette, which was responded to by the defendant, who then held the livings at Caldecote and Newn ham, and an interview subsequently took place at Norwood, which resulted in an arrangement for the ex change of the livings and the chaplaincy. Shortly after wards, Mr. Goldham and his wife went down to Newn ham and were introduced to the family of the defendant, and eveitually the exchange was completed. In such a case, by the common law of the land, the outgoing in cumbent of a benefice was bound to make good all dilapidations, and he said there could be no doubt that, in the present instance, the defendant would have been clearly liable to do so, but it appeared that he refused, on the ground that an agreement had been entered into verbally between him and the plaintiff that he should not pay for the dilapidation ; and that was the defence tbat would be set up to the present action. He should, however, be believed, satisfy the jury that no such agreement had been entered into by the plaintiff, and that he had never waived his legal rights with regard to the repairs. The Rev. Mr. E lwards, the defendant, was then ex amined, and he stated most po,iavely that upon the first interview with the plaintiff, he made the non liability for dilapidations the basis of the whole arrange ment, and his reason for doing so was that he had ex pended 1,2001. upon the house, and the former incum bent having been insolvent, and the living sequestrated, he had himself received nothing for dilapidations when he came to the preferment. Mr. Justice Maule summed up the case, and The Jury, after deliberating about half an hour, re turned a verdict for the defendant. CRO WN COURT. William Balcombe .Simpson, 40, solicitor; Caroline Ilinctrec, 46 ; John Hopkins, 23 ; Richard lia2ctree, 17 ; Caroline Woodyate ; Dinah Drayton, 35 ; and Francis Johnson, 50, baker, were indicted for conspiracy. This case Pecupied the court for a great many hours, and was cot brought to a conclusion until nine o'clock at night. The charge arose out of the indictments that we's disposed of ou the first day of the assizes, im puting a series of extensive corn robberies to different. parties, Mr. Clement', a baker and flour factor at St. Albans, being the prosecutor. The offence imputed to the present defendants was, that they hal conspired to gether to defeat tht, ends of justice, by getting a mate rial witness in support of the original charge out of the way. . _ _ The jury, without any hesitation, returned a verdict of ,not guilty, and at the same time expressed their opinion that there wag not the slightest foundation for the charge made against 3lr. Simpson. The learned judge said that now the case was con chided, he had no hesitation in saying that he entirely concurred in the opinion expressed by the jury, and that gentleman would leave the court without the slightest imputation upon his character. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—READING, MARCH 3. EMBEZZLEMENT BY A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER. John Wood, about 40 years of age, described as clerk and traveller, surrendered to his bail for trial on the charge of having embezzled certain sums of money, be longing to his employer, Mr. Langton, brewer and wine merchant, living at Maidenhead. The prosecutor, Mr. John Edward Langton, carries on an extensive brewery business, and the prisoner \Vood, in July, 1852, became the London consignee of ale, for which he had a considerable demand. The busi ness did not proceed to the satisfaction of Mr. Langton, and during the year 1353 a balance was struck, when it appeared that there was the sum of 7881. due from Wood. A now arrangensent was made, by which Wood was to become traveller and collector, at a salary of 4001. per annum, to include travelling expenses ; but it was proposed that from this sum 2001. was every year to be set aside towards liquidating the debt of 7881. incurred whilst he was Mr. Langton's consignee. This was never carried into effect ; but on the let of January in the pre sent year it was agreed that he should be paid 41. weekly and the expenses incurred by him in travelling. Accord ing to the evidence of Mr. Langton, jun. (who managed the business in consequence of his father being an invalid), it was the duty of Wood on returning from a journey to make an entry in a book of all money re ceived from customers and to pay the same to the cashier, or whoever might be in the office. A short time since a list was made of the balances due from the customers up to Christmas last, and amongst these ap peared the name of Mr. Tindall, the 'landlord of the Waterloo Tavern, Haymarket, Londe!), for the sum of 321. Mr. Tindall being known to be in good circum stances his arrearj excited surprise, and Mr. Langton, jun., spoke to Wood on the subject, on the 12th of last month, when he represented that Mr. Tindall complained of the times being bad, anel would pay as soon as pos sible ; but as he was that day going to town, be would call and see Mr. Tindall, and arrange for payment. Mr. Langton, not satisfied with Wood's explanation, left for town by a subsequent train, and ascertained from Mr. Tindall that a balance of 321. was paid on the 12th of January, but no entry was made in the cash-book as required by the arrangement made at the beginning of the year. According to appointment;Wood net Mr. Langton on the railway platform at Paddington, on that afternoon, and when asked what Mr. Tindall had done with respect to the balance, he said Mr. Tindall was sorry he was behindband, lut would pay in a month. Mr. Tindall produced his receipt, signed by Wood, for the balance which was still represented in Wood's book to be due to Mr. Langton. The next case was that of Mrs. Light, of the Feathers inn, Taplow, who paid Wood 331. Bs. on the 19th of February, but he had only accounted for 251. in the cash bock ; and the third case was that of Mr. Ames, of the Wellington Arms, Reading, who was represented to have paid only 101. on the 30th of December last, whilst his receipt showed that be had given Wood the sum of 151., the total amount of his account. • On cross-examination, Mr. Langton admitted that Wood had paid him a cheque for 3401. for sundry ac counts ; and also that although he had paid a sum of 38/. and 201. it was discovered three months afterwards that credit had been omitted to be given him,' by the clerk neglecting to cat ry those sums from the cash book into the ledger. Mr. Huddlestone made an able address for Wood, and contended that there was no wilful intention to keep the money, but that what was paid was only on account. A stun from 5,0001. to 6,0001. passing through his hands annually (which the prosecutor admitted) it was not unlikely an error might occur ; but he denied any criminal intention. Several respectable persons were called, who gave Wood a geed character for honesty and uprightness. His lordship summed up, and the jury returned a verdict of guilty, with a strong recommendation to mercy. The learned Baron said he would gire full effect to it, and apart from it he should have passed but a slight sentence, as he believed the conviction itself would be a severer punishment on a person in the re spectable position of the prisoner than any lengthened imprisonment. He then sentenced him to a fortnight's hard labour, DUDLEY, A meeting. of about 500 inhabitants, on Thor=dhy night, determined upon a reqw.sitimi to Mr. BAldwin, the late Mayor of iltrminsrl!am, from whom, on his in tention to offer himself as a candieate, a favourable reply has been received. On Saturday it was stated that Mr. Reuben Plat:t is about to come forward on the Liberal interest. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. --~-- The fleet now assembling at Portsmouth is daily be coming of more interest and importance. There appears likely to be a Channel squadron as well as a Baltic fleet, if report may be trusted. Sundry ships have been ordered to refit " for Channel service." Two more arrivals (the Nile, 91, and Euryalus, 51, from Plymouth) have aug mented the force at Spithead, which will now be hourly swelling towards its fully-intended proportions of " 100 pennant'." The Imperieuse, 51, also joined the gather. ing on Saturday. Numerous desertions have taken place from the Calcutta, 84, Captain J. J. Stopford. The Fal con, 17, screw corvette, Commander Pullen, completed her outfit on Saturday, and bent sails ready for going to Spithead ; she will go out to-day or to-morrow. The Oberon, 3, paddle vessel, Lieutenant Freeland, left Portsmouth harbour yesterday forenoon for Spit head. The Resistance, troop-ship, was towed into harbour to prepare for docking before she embarks the Royal Wiltshire Militia for foreign service. The John, freight-ship, sailed on Saturday for :salaklavr., with victualling stores and bale goods. The Pee, steam transport, arrived at Portsmouth on Satur day, with machinery for the ships refitting in the dock yard and her Majesty's new yacht.

B. Crawford, left Portsmouth on Saturday night for the eastward, with men whose leave had expired from the ships fitting out there, and also supernumeraries. The Ai lel, 9, Commander Luce, is ordered into har bour to repair some defects. The Arabia, hired steam-transport (one of the Cunard line of Transatlantic packets), Capt. , Judkins, arrived at Portsmouth on Saturday last Bona the Black Sea, w►th sick and wounded, as we announced on Saturday.

The Arabia passed her Majesty's ship Vengeance, also homeward bound, off C tpe Bonn, on the 21.,.t. Tice Cresus, steam transpurt, was to leave Malta the day alter the Arabia, fur England ; she may now be hourly expected. The same rsiisinanagement and want of pre-organisation was exhibited by the military authorities as has been so painfully apparent on nearly every arrival of sick and wounded at Portsmouth as yet. No medical officer or other official was sent off t . .) the Arabia while she lay at Spithead to see what was the nature of the cases and which the most urgent to be got to hospital. Two of the sick have lost their legs, several are wounded in the arms and shoulders, and many wounded in the legs, mostly by gunshots. Tno dysentery and diarrhoea patients are, as usual, the worst cases. Three men have died on the passage. All the invaade have benefitted much from the attention bestowed on them during the passage.

The War Cloud, No. 55, Captain Fox, has been discharged froth the public service. The bark Henry Bewis, Captain Leing, with coal from Hartlepool for Haratinah, after being 300 miles to the westward, put back to Plyrnou , h on Saturday with loss of three topmasts, and the same day the Spanish barque Maria and Juana, Captain Ugerte, from Mexico with mahogany for London, put in leaky and damaged, with loss of sails, &c. There are now on drill in Sheerness garrison nearly 1,000 newly raised fine young men for the Royal Artil lery corps, many of whom are ready to be draughted when their services may be required. The Royal George, 102 guns, screw steam-ship was under saiting orders to leave Sheerness yesterday for Spithead, but in consequence of the waste-pipe in the starboard side bursting, she is to leave to-day. In every other respect she is ready for immediate service, having shells, ammunition, &c., on board.
