The fo lowing Letter has teen addressed to a large number of the Merchants and Traders of the Metropolis:- 19, Svvithufs-lane, April 30111,185 i. Pear Sir,—ln common with, we believe, a majority of the pubic. the undersigned Vew i‘ith sorrow and apprehension the dangers any disgrace to which our national mare and national positi 41 have been subjected by our i ,, effictent and irresponsible System of dministra lion, and the unbusines,-like management of every department 0' the Stote. he re , tits of adminlstrative incapacity have, within the last few months, fal'en heavily upon every class of the People—they art canvassed with sorrow and indignation in every home and worksho; in the land; and it is matter of daily increasing surprise that there is nothing being done to bring the Government to a better course. The people are looking anxiously for some sign of life—some effort worthy of the oceasion—so tie eirection of opinion, which shall rendei impossible the refusal of such Reforms in the EXecutive as the national honour and safety Imperatively demand. The facts alreidy die losed before the Committee of Inquiry Into the Condition of the Army before Sebastopol" are the natural result , of a system which must be thoroughly changed, or it will inevitabb lead to greater evils. It Is idle to hope for any valid reform from within the circle of the Government. The tangled knot of Incapacity and routine must Ix cut by the Pcop'e—the evils are too deep-rooted to be eradicated 133 anything short of a very general, earnest, and largely supporteo movemi•nt. It would be out of place to enter at present into details. Administrative Reform, upon the basis of thorough Responsibility. Promotion for Merit, and Business Management of every Depart ment sat Office of the Government, must be made the question of the day. For so important an object there can be no doubt the majority or the constituencies setting aside, for the time, all party and personal considerations, would readily associate themselves with London. With such an organisation in view. it is proposed to hold a Meetine at the London Tavern, on Saturday, May sth, at 12 for 1 o'clock pre ci e The absence of any constituted authority in the City for political and soc al purposes, free from all party complexion, must be our excuse for taking the initiative, and very earnestly urging your attendance.

The Malacca, 17, screw corvette, Captain Farquhar, will go out and join tomorrow or Friday, having completed her refit. The Cruiser, 14, Commander the Hon. G. Douglas ; and the Falcon, 14, Commander Pullen, left Spithead yesterday morning for the Channel to relieve the wind-bound merchantmen. Seamen are flocking into Portsmouth in good numbers, mostly men who ,have bad their run, and been lately employed in the railing line-ef-battle ships recently returned to England from the 'Mediterranean. The Victory, flag-ship, vic tualled nearly 1,000 yesterday, 400 of whom were sub sequently draughted or allowed to volunteer into the blockships Corn wallis, Hawke, Pembroke, Hastings, and Russell at Spithead. The ban against these ships receiving volunteers cf teamen having been removed by the Admiralty, it is expected that by this day week every one of those ships will be ready to leave for the Baltic with her full .complement of 600 men on her books. The Porcupine steam-vessel, Lieut. Jackson, left Ports mouth for Sheerness yesterday afternoon, and the Myr midon steam-vessel returned to Portsmouth from Pem broke. The Great Tasmania transport arrived at Spit. head at 6 o'clock last evening from Liverpool in tow of a tug, to embark 1,000 troops for the Crimea. The Rhadamanthus, steam transport, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday evening from the eastward. THE CONDUCT OF TILE WAR. (From the Times of this day.) We often hear of men who are'over-educated for their understanding, and, indeed, it is of such persons that the bores, the graters, and the sciolists of society are composed. Such persons have furnished themselves with an instrument which they cannot apply, and that which was meant to be their honour has become their 'eproach —that which was designed for their aid has eecome their hindrence Such would. seem to be the position occupied by modern Governments. Inductive philosphy has ran ;stoked the storehouses of nature—has forced her secrets from her, and wrested frern her hand her hidden and nyaterious powers. We can send our fleets over the water winged with a speed and possessing a power of carriage which the boldest imagination never could have anticipated. We can send a message with the rapidity of lightning, and outrun, if not time itself, that revolution if the earth by which we measure it. All these are vast facilities for cultivatiree awl improving the arts of peace, aed equally mighty agencies for affecting the rapid combinations of war. Yet the result has shown that these magnificent agencies, so subordi nated to our will, are in a great measure neutralised, if not rendered positively hurtful, by the want in our statesmen of an intelligence able to deal with their powers—able to foresee and effect the combinations the control over which is placed in theur weak and unskilful hands. Our steamers have carried our troops out so rapidly to the seat of war that preparations for their ar rival lagged far behind them, and our wondrous electric telegraph has been the source of endless confusion and mystification, disappointment, annoyance, and uncer tainty. Take but the latest instance. We have, at enormous expense, carried the electric wire under no inconsiderable portion of the Black Sea, and. ade Bala klava, for the purposes of intelligence IT - least, into something little more remote than a suburb of London. We have done all this, but one thing we have omitted —we have omitted to supply ourselves with a General willing to avail himself of the instrument we have pro vided, or with a Ministry disposed to give us the-benefit of the information they receive.- Therefore, the electric telegraph to Balaklava has turned out of no value to the nation which paid for it, and has even added to the per plexities of those whose business it is to draw such con clusions as they may from the fragmentary intelligence which arrives. We have news by way of St. Petersburg and Berlin, by Vienna, by Marseilles ; but all these sources of infor mation are discredited when we remember that the more rapid source of communication is silent, and by the con jectures to which we are driven in order to account for that silence. First, we hear that the key to the cipher in which the despatches are written travels by steam, while the cipher itself runs with the feet of the light ning ; and, nest, that though the messages are decipher. able, they consist of nothing but frivolous questions or unmeaning acknowledgments. Still out of all this con fusion there is some glimmering of light—sometbieg out of which one may forum an estimate, though far from an exact one, of the real state of things. First, there is the steamer Caine, which brings us intelligence from Balaklava up to April 17. The narrative is a checkered one. General Bizot, the Commander of the French Engineers, died of a wound received by him in the trenches, and was buried on the 16th. On the 14th the French ex ploded three mines under the Flagstaff Battery, with only partial effect; and, though the Russians appre hended an assault, the injury was not sufficiently great to justify the operation. On the night of the 13th a sortie took place, which - cast the French 300 men and six officers, but was repulsed with more than ordinary success and more than ordinary slaughter. On the 16th two of the Russian ships were burnt—a statement which seems to derive some confirmation from a report drawn from a Russian source, which states that the enemy's fleet had advanced from the innerrnoit harbour in order of battle, and had placed themselves near Fort Nicholas, the work which, as our readers will re member, defends the southern side of the harbour of Sebastopol. By the Simois we learn that the Eng lish have taken by - assault the ambuscades in front of the Tower of Malakhoff, and that the Russians have found themselves obliged to abandon one of their batteries. In the meanwhile the Russians appear to be drawing their lines more firmly around our position ; and the concentration of force is, if we are to believe the reports of deserters,'t normous. Over and above all this, the Moniteur publishes a despatch of the 28th, to the effect that the besiegers have momentarily suspended their fire to await reinforcements, and to spare the ex• penditure of ammunition. Putting all these things together, it would seem that we have certainly made some progress in our operations., that we are gradually drawing nearer to the object of our attack, and that the enemy have found themselvei quite unable to carry out or maintain the counter- works with which at one time they so seriously threatened our position. Even the Russian accounts which we publish do not claim any brilliant success, and are in some places expressed with an ambiguity which may possibly be meant to cover disasters, and admit the tremendous force of the tire to which the town haz been subjected. This cannonade must, indeed, have been of unexampled severity--unique.. as far as we are aware, in the annals of war. To sustain such a fire for so many consecutive days and nights—nineteen, accord 111g to the account in the Monitettr—argues an abundance of resources, a Solidity in the ordnance employed, and a power of endurance on the Tart of the men, transcending anything we have ever heard or read of. The world can never have witnessed anything more terrible tban this long-continued struggle, in which instruments of destruc tion of a size and p,,wer never before employed in war have been met by others equally powerful, and the thunders of a tropical storm have been put to silence by the fearful din of artillery. During this great duel of artillery the enemy has been gathering in mighty masses around us, and any day may witness an attack made in enormous force along the whole line of our defences, backed by furious sallies from the beleaguered t iwn. Never were numbers more needed than now. As the land dries, and the country becomes traversable, we must expect to meet, in mortal encounter all the troops which a great empire not else where invaded can spare for the defence of a single pro vince. The difficulty of subsisting this immense body of men in the arid steppes of the Crimea will probably counsel prompt and even desperate action. We need every man that *an be sent, and yet we hear of 40,000 Freiich troops remaining on the Bosphorus, and a whole division of cavalry which has spent the winter at Adrianople. • Never was there a situa- tion so full of hope and fear, of danger and of pro mise. One moment we seem likely to grasp great suc cesses, the next suggests the apprehension of enormous reverses. The nation is in a fever of expectation. The absolute Government of France finds means to communi cate to its subjects the last intelligence, even though that intelligence be neither flattering nor encouraging. But we are condemned to learn, at second-hand, information carried by our own telegraph, and are indebted to our neighbours for giving us by that means all the know ledge we as yet possess of our own most interesting affairs. Is it possible that Lord Raglan should have sent information of the concentration of Russian troops on the Belbeck, and inquired after the Sardinian Con tingent, without informing his Government that he had suspended fire ? The thing seems incredible, and yet we have the strongest Ministerial assurances of its truth. COURT-MARTIAL. A court-martial assembled at Plymouth on Monday morning, on board the flag-ship Impregnable, 104, to in quite into the circumstances connected with the ground. ing of the paddle-wheel steam-sloop Hecla, 6, on the morning of the 23d of January last, at the back 'of the rock of Gibraltar ; and to try her commanding officer, Henry Samuel Hawker, and her master, E. J. H. Tucker, for their conduct on that occasion. The Court consisted of Heat-Admiral J. H. Plumridge, Superin tendent of the Devonport Dockyard, president; Captain John Kingcbine, Royal William ; Captain Lord Edward Russell, Vengeance ,; Captain Charles Wise, Impreg nable ; and Captain Woodward J. Williams; Sanspareil. Mr. William Eastlake officiated as Judge-Advocate. Mr. John Beer, solicitor, of Devonport, attended as Commander Hawker's friend ; and Mr. J. E. Elworthy, solicitor, of Plymouth, watched the case on behalf of Mr. Tucker. On the part of the prosecution, it was shown that on the moruing of the 231 of January the Hecla was proceeding to Malaga under charge of Com mander Hawker, who retired to bed about half-past 10 o'clock, but previously to doing so entered in the order-book that• a good look-out should be kept for vessels, so as to haul clear of them, and a request to be called when the vessel had run 35 miles after 8 o'clock. It appeared that the second part of this order was not obeyed. The vessel proceeded under steam about 5 miles an hour. The weather was described as very dark and "nasty ;" the wind was rather fresh from S.S.E., variable, with a force of about five. The patent log was put over at seven in the evening, and hauled in about midnight, and showed that 21} knots had been run during that time. At 10 minutes after 4 on the morning iu question the course given by the relieving officer on watch was W.N.W. Mr. Tucker, the mater, was on the bridge at the tune the course was given, and a few minutes afterwards he went below. At 4.30 the officer of the watch, named Allen, observed three lights, two of which appeared to be from ships, and the other a standing one from the shore. Allen then gave direc tions for e helm to be put two points aporc. Mr. Tucker, on hearing the order, inquired the reason, and ordered the vessel to be steered as before, W.N.W. About 5.40 some breakers were observed on the port bow, and Mr. Tucker, who was then on the quarter deck, gave directions for the ship to be stopped, the engines reversed, and the helm to be put hard aport. At 5.50 she struck forward on a reef of rocks at the back of the rock of Gibraltar. Immediately on breakers being observed, Commander Hawker was called, but before he could arrive on deck the ship had struck. Directions were then given to launch the starboard paddlebox boat, a hawser attached to a line was thrown on shore, minute guns were fired, and subsequently, on finding that she could not be got off, her fore and mainmasts were cut away, and the ship abandoned. On the night following the occurrence the Hecla filled from holes made in her bottom by the floating spars. Abc ut 10 minutes before she struck the master ordered the man in the chains to heave the lead, and it was found that she was in three and a half fathoms, the ship drawing 14 feet. Upwards of a dozen witnesses were called for the prosecution, at the conclusion of which the Court adjourned till the following day (Tuesday). On the opening of the court, yesterday, Commander Hawker entered upon his defence, and alleged that the master, Mr. Tucker, had deviated from his instructions relative to steering the ship. He read numerous teoti menials, and called several witnesses in his behalf. Mr. Tucker could not account, in his defence, for'the stranding of the Hee!a, but called several witnesses to prove his attention to his duties on the night in ques tion, and also read several testimonials. The Court considered the commander to blame, and adjudged him to be severely reprimanded. The master was sentenced to be dismissed from the Freda, and to lose two years' service. THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The screw steam-transport Victoria, No. 72, belonging to the Australian Royal Mail Company, which arrived at Southampton on Saturday evening, with invalided troops from the garrison at Gibraltar, still remains in the river. She bas, however, at last disposed of her inva lids, for they were sent ashore from the ship yesterday morning in a steam-tug, a period of only two days and a-balf having elapsed since her arrival ! The poor fel lows seemed delighted when they landed, but complained of the unnecessary confinement to which they had been subjected. The delay with regard to this ship is another of the many flagrant cases which have at various_ times been recorded. In this, as in other instances, no blame can be attached to the Admiralty officials at Southamp ton, for no sooner had the vessel arrived than intelli gence of the fact - was forwarded by telegraph to London. After waiting for several hours no rept./ was received, and it was not until too late on Monday night to send the passengers ashore that - any knowledge existed of the wishes at head-quarters. Early yesterday morning, however, they were speedily got out of the ship and des patched to Chatham. The Victoria will be docked and . , repaired previously to her leaving Southampton. ' The General Screw Company's screw steam-ship In diana, No. 147, left Southampton for Woolwich yester day morning, icr the purpose of embarking horses for conveyance to the Crimea. She is fitted to accommo date 225, and will also berth a large number of troops. The capacity of her decks renders her admirably suited for the purposes of the horse transport service ; and the good sailing qualities of this fine vessel will insure a speedy transit to the place of her destination. Yesterday a detachment:of the Royal Artillery, con sisting of 200 men, arrived at Liverpool from Woolwich, and proceeded the same evening to Dublin by steamer.• RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

" That the committee of almoners do transact all the business and discharge all the duties heretofore committed to their charge, except such as are hereafter transferred to the committee of renters. " That the 'committee of renters do transact all business connected with the management, care, letting, and other wise dealing with all the estates and other property of the hospital, and with all the disbursements incidental thereto or connected therewith; and with the oversight and dis tribution of all the charities of which the governors are trustees, with the exception of Hetherington's Charity to the Blind." Mr. R. S. THOMAS seconded the motion. Mr. S. GARRARD moved the following amendment : "1. That the committee of almoners consist in future of the president, treasurer, and members, of whom six shall be honorary members. "2. That such six honorary members be nominated in the first instance, and afterwards from time to time as vacancies occur, by the committee of almoners, and that each honorary member be appointed either in consideration of his high rank or distinguished position in society, or of valuable services rendered by him to Christ's hospital. "3. That the present committee shall forthwith appoint — the six honorary members, and shall then, by ballot, re , duce their bum tier to 27, exclusive of the president, trea surer, and the honorary Members ; and that in the month of May in each of the years 1856, 1857, and 1858, nine of such 27 members shall go out of office by lot. "4.
