The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed heavily, and prices of American were generally id. per lb. down ; but new cotton at 6gd. per lb. is id. per lb. lower. The sales were 6,000 bales, 500 for export, comprising 180 Pernam arid Maran ham, 6id. to 6,1 d. ; 50 Bahia 6d. to 6id. ; 20 Egyptian, 7id. ; and 300 Surats, 3id. to 4d. per lb. The Railway Share Market was steady, and prices of the leading stocks were considerably advanced. The Moniteur Las published a comparative table of the commercial affairs of France, daring the ten months of this year ending October 31st, with the corresponding periods of 1854. These tables show a marked augmentation in the quan tities and value of imports over any previous year. This is attributable to two causes—the incentive to trade on account of the War in the East, and the Exhibition of Industry at Paris. The total im ports of merchandise for 1855 are valued at 164,327,000 f. against 120,827,000 f. in 1854, show ing an augmentation of upwards of 43 millions of francs, approximating to 35 per cent. Of the more important items we marked the following wheat 6,685,000 quintals against 5,013,264 last year ; cast iron from 72,222 tons in 1854 to 101,851 tons this year ; and wrought iron from 8,679 to 44,502 ; cotton tissues respectively 6,568,000 kilogrammes to 7,991,900 ; and the ton nage of vessels entering the ports of the nation from 3,971,000 tons in 1854 has risen to 4,462,000 tons in 1855. The latest advices from the continental Bourses present no particular feature in the German Stock Markets. At Vienna the 5 per Cents. for money were stationary, and the New Loan ruled feebly at previous quotations, while the exchanges on London and Paris remained at 11.01 and 131 florins. At Berlin the 4 per Cents. were firm at 97, and the 4 at 108. The Frank fort rates of exchange on London are 118 k, and on Paris 93k. On the Paris Bourse the animation presented at the beginning of the week continued. This buoyancy is rather remarkable, as no great political or financial event has occured to influence the operators. During yesterday the 3 per Cents. not only maintained the previous rise, but made a further advance of 35 centimes for money, and 30 for the account, whilst the 4i Stock remained un altered, but firm at 91. Accounts from the foreign grain and flour mar kets continue to show great firmness at the high quotations of last week, but with no apparent ten dency to advance. At Paris flour for immediate delivery commands 106 f., and for December 107 f., and large dealings are taking place for the firit three months of 1856 at speculative prices. The principal grain markets in Belgium show an average for the week of 38f. 68c. for wheat, and 25f. 55c. for rye, against 38f. 16c., and 24f. 91c. respectively for the previous week, At Antwerp the grain market was firm, with the arrival of regular sup plies ; while in coffee and sugar business was done at the recent high prices, and those who had stocks on hand were holding on. In Prussia the high price of grain had caused the Government to pro hibit the distillation of spirits from grain. From Belgium we learn that the Minister of finance has brought forward his budget for the ensuing year in an amended form, limiting the in crease on the year, of extraordinary credits, to 22,000,000 of francs. Since the pay ment of the instalment of 10 per cent. on the English Loan increased tightness has been experienced in the money market, and within the last two days the demand for accommodation has become so active that the rates exacted have generally exceeded the Bank minimum. This led to the conclusion that the Bank would increase the charge to-day, but the Bank meeting separated without the adoption of any such measure. Still there is a belief that some official notification will appear in a day or two, the nature of which, how ever, is not mentioned. Owing to the anxiety to ascertain the result of the - Bank "parlor'' meeting, the business trans acted in the Engliih Stock Market has been very limited, and a heavy tone has prevailed. Consols for money have been 88,4 4, and for account 881 At the present moment the quotations for the former are 881 and for the latter 881 the im provement being caused by the separation of the Bank meeting without the adoption of any further stringent measures.

MAN CRUSHED TO DEATH.—Yesterday morning Evan Thomas, aged 55 years, was employed in loading casks of tallow at a wharf in Tooley-street, when by some means the slings slipped from a large cask of tal low, which fell on the poor fellow from a considerable height, with a tremendous crash. He was at once picked up, in a state of insensibility, and taken to Guy's Hospital, where it was ascertained by Mr. Dyer, the house surgeon, that the poor man's ribs were broken. Every attention was paid to him, but be expired shortly after his admission. The body now awaits the coroner's nquest. THE WESTERN FISHERIES.—During the past week the boats at Polperro have been taking from 2,000 to 6,000 pilchards each, which have sold at 20s. Per 1,000. At St. Ives the drift-boats have secured from 1,000 to 6,000 herrings each per night, which have been disposed of at 2s. 3d. per hundred of six score. A large quantity of fine pilchards have also been captured. 5 5 20 10 20 5 '3O 18 20i lOU 2O 100 94) 20 80 • , 12e. THE SUN, LONDON.

'COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. ;Sittings in Banco, before Lord Campbell, Justice Cole. ridge, Wightman, and Erle.) THE CASE OF ARCHDEACON DENISON. Sir Fitzroy Kelly moved for a rule to show cause will► mandamus should not be issued, directed to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, commanding him to require, by writing under his hand, the Venerable the Archdeacon of Taunton to either appear in person, or by his agent, before him under the 3d and 4th Vic., ehap. 86, and proceed against him according to law. It appeared that the archdeacon had been charged with having in three sermons, two delivered in 1853, and one in 1854, publicly preached and maintained doctrines which were alleged to be contrary to the Articles of the Esta blished Church. Application was made in consequences., by the Rev. Mr. Ditcher to the then Bishop of Bath and Wells, to institute proceedings against the arch deacon, who declined doing so, in consequence of his being the patron of the preferment held by the arch deacon, a provision to that effect being inserted. The bishop having declined to proceed by issuing letter of request, it remained for the archbishop of the province or any person so complaining to institute a court of in quiry. That was done. The Court sat in January last, at Clevedon, at which the archdeacon attended, evidence was beard on oath, and the commissioners re ported to the Archbishop of Canterbury that there was prima facie evidence for further proceedings against the Archdeacon of Taunton. Since then no further pro ceedings had been taken against the Archdeacon, not• withstanding the Rev. J. Ditcher, the person complain. ing, had exhibited articles against him and complied with the act. He had applied to the Archbishop of Canterbury to do so, but his Grace had replied that he considered no good purpose would be answered by his proceeding further against the Archdeacon under the Oth section. The question arising out of the applica tion was one of vast importance, and was whether after a suit had been actually instituted, and the law put in motion under the provision of the act against a clergy. man in holy -orders charged with an ecclesiastical of fence, it was discretionary, and consequently within the power of any Bishop or Archbishop, as the case might be, to interpose and put his veto on any further pro ceedings being taken in respect of such offence. Lord Campbell said it was an important question, and he thought the learned counsel had stated sufficient to show he was entitled to a rule. Rule granted accordingly. SCOTT V. THE CHURCHWARDENS OF ST. MARTINS IN THE- FIELDS.-JUDGMENT. This was an appeal from a conviction relative to the rating of a house situated in Wellington-street, Strand, occupied by the Working Men's Educational Society, established in 1852, and of which the Earl of Shaftesbury is the President, and having for its object the elevation of the adult population as regarded their physical, intel lectual, moral, and religious condition ; and the means adopted for its accomplishment were by encouraging popular literature, scientific lectures, the formation of popular lending libraries and mutual instruction classes, provision being made that the society should be free from the party politics of the day, and from any sectarian character. Lord Campbell, in giving the judgment of the Court, said the question to be decided in this case was whether the " Working Men's Educational Union Society" as described in the second annual report of that society, was a society for the purposes of "Science, Literature, and the Fine Arts," within the 6th and 7th Vic., chap. 36, so that the house occupied by the society was ex empt from rating to the relief of the poor. This was a very laudable society ; but on looking at the objects of the society, as stated in the second annual report, the Court considered it did not come within the meaning of the act. The society used science, literature, and the fine arts as a part of the means for gaining their objects ; but the direct object for which it was in-tituted could not be connected with the direct promotion of science, literature, and the fine arts, and, therefore, it did not come within the exemption of the act. Judgment for the respondents. ROLLS COURT. ABBOTT V. hiIDDLETON.-JUDGMENT. The Master of the Rolls gace judgment this morning in this case, in which the principal question was as to the construction of the will of General Carpenter. By that will he gave an annuity to his widow, and upon her decease the property set apart to secure that sum was to become the property of his snit George Carpenter, then a Captain in the 31st Regiment of Foot, and one of the heroes of the Crimea. The principal question in the case was whether, in the event of General Carpen ter's son dying before his mother, tbat property became the property of his children upon the death of their grandnit•ther. The Master of the Rolls was clearly of opinion that the intention of the testator was not to leave his son's children destitute in case they should have the misfortune of losing their father during the lifetime of their grandmother, and decreed that they took vested inter es t i n th e fund, subject to the rights of the testator's widow. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(Thus Day.) SOUTHWARK. IMPORTANT TO RAILWAY TRAVELLERS. -Mr. Wind/e, a clerk in the Bank of England, was summoned for com mitting an assault on James Packman, ticket collector, in the employ of the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway, while in the execution of his duty. Mr. Humphries, junior, attended for the defendant, and applied for a summons against the railway servant for an assault on his client at the same time. He had made a formal complaint to the directors about his con duct, and inquiries were being instituted. Mr. Combe, after considerable argument on both sides, granted the summons, to be heard immediately. Packman was then sworn, and he said about nine o'clock on Friday morning last he was on duty on the platform of the London and Brighton Railway Terminus when the Croydon and Epsom train Caine up. There were a number of passengers, and the defendant, Mr. Windle, instead of going out by the proper exit, rushed towards the booking office, where tbey were preparing for another train. Witness went up to him and stopped him, at the same time telling him he must not go that way, when he struck witness and pushed him away. He reported the circumstance to his superior officer, and the present summons was directed to betaken out. In answer to the charge, Mr. Humphries said his client was a clerk holding an important situation in the Bank of England, and it was necessary that he should arrive at his situation by 9 o'clock. He was a regular traveller by the railway, and on the morning in question the train was 20 minutes behind time. Consequently he was anxious to Bret through the station as soon as he could, but was prevented by the complainant, who com mitted the assault upon him. The complainant admitted that the train wa4 behind time, but still the gentleman had no right to pass through the booking-office. The summons against the railway servant was not heard, when Mr. Combo considered that both parties had been rather hasty. The gentleman had certainly no business to pass through the booking-office, but the railway servant might have acted with a little forbear ance under the circumstances. He should therefore dis miss both the summonses. THAMES. A. REFRACTORY PAUPER.—llenrietta Littlejohn, a pauper belonging to the Poplar Union, was brought be fore Mr. Ingham charged wi th bein g disorde rly and using obscene and threatening language in the Unio n -h ouse. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner had re peatedly threatened and abused the inmates of the workhouse, and was the terror of them all. Sh e was con fined in the receiving-room from Saturday night until Itlonday morning for misconduct. Yesterday, at dinner time, a woman named Mary Macdonald happened to touch the prisoner's frock accidentally, and knowing her vindictive and malicious temper begged her pardon. The prisoner made use of the most disgusting language, and took up a knife which she brandished, and threatened to stab her. The female paupers, who were much terri fied, fled in all directions. Mrs. Ripp, the matron, restored order, and sent the prisoner into the receiving ward, and ordered her to pick oakum. The prisoner refused to do so and destroyed a new apron she was wearing, besides com mitting other acts of disorder. The prisoner's conduct was described as being generally of a most disorderly and outrageous description. She declared in the work house that she would never be satisfied until she had the complainant's life. The prisoner, who is not more than 17 years of age, said she had been on the streets and was constantly taunted by Mrs. Macdonald and others. Mr. Ingham said the prisoner was supported by the rate-payers of Poplar, and the least she could do was to behave with propriety and civility in the workhouse. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for 21 days. Prince Augustin Chigi, perpetual marshal of the Church, guardian of the Conclave and president of the Philological College, died at Rome on the 10th. Spirit of the Public Journals. ( From the Times of this day.) The strong point of those in this country who denounce the war consists in a certain use of the word " Russians," not without its effect on weak and uninformed minds. The Russians, we are told, will never give in. The Russians will never consent to any limitation of their maritime power. It is out of the question to think of beating the Russians in their own territory. The Russians are inexhaustible, and they have only to call in their hordes from the Asiatic provinces, and all Europe will be crush e d b y th e very weight of the torrent. Then, the Russians aro devoted to their Czar, and regard him both as the head of their religion and as destined to drive out the Turk and conquer the world. We have been told by an actual flesh and blood statesman in this country that it is vain to think of resisting the paramount destiny of the Russians. These are some of the shapes in which the bugbear has been brandished before our eyes and rattled in our ears ; and that the artifice is not without success in some quarters appears from the manner in which people open their eyes when one ventures to intimate that the Russians are in the process of extermination. However, that is the plain fact of the case. Doubtless, these " Rus sians "—this terrible noun of multitude—are obstinate, and brave, and religious after a fashion, and devoted to their Czar, and deter mined to conquer the earth, and resolved to die before they will abate one tittle of their pre tensions, and rather clever fellows besides ; but, meanwhile, the people who are so formidable, so implacable, and the rest of it, are ceasing to exist. A. man may be very terrible indeed, but when he is dead his terror dies with him, and the survi vors are at rest. By and by all these awful qualities will be predicated of the Russians, but in the past tense, as they may be of the Huns, and of some other - races that are no more to be found. Even a living Turk may be better than a dead Russian. The greatest resolution, the most savage zeal, the most infatuated loyalty, the most reckless courage, the largest scheme, the utmost confidence in des tiny, the profoundest contempt for all other races, are qualities only formidable in proportion to the number of those who possess them ; and if they were ever so formidable when possessed by a million fighting men, they cease to be so when the posses sors are minished to a few thousands, or consist only of old men and children, invalids, criples, and stunted town artisans. There is something very im posing indeed in great sound and fury. When a wild beast is roaring, and lashing his tail, and gnashing his teeth, and preparing for a deadly spring, he ex pands into the infinite,and itis difficult to realise that in a few seconds he may be only a lump of carrion, covered with a hearthrug or a winter cloak. Some Englishmen, who ought to have a little more sense in their heads, are equally incapable of perceiving the hollowness of this talk about " the Russians." We have gone over the figures several times be fore, and therefore will only now repeat that the population of All the Russias is not greater than that of France and the British Isles, and is nothing like so available. Siberia, instead of supplying "hordes," is a drain upon Russia, and the Polish provinces must always lock up a great part of her army. Of the troops marched to the seat of war a very large proportion never reach their destination, and, once 'there, few indeed ever return. Indeed there is good ground for the calculation that the 64,000,000 of all Russia cannot send so great and so constant a supply of soldiers to the theatre of war as the 40,000,000 of France alone, not to speak of the British, Turks, and Sardinians. These estimates are now receiving the most authentic corroboration in the rapidity with which the Rus sian conscriptions succeed one another. Our correspondent at Vienna quotes from the Augs burg Gazette a calculation of the levies made within the last 20 months, which shows how ra pidly the war is drawing upon the strength of the Russian Empire. These levies were made in February, May, September, and December, 1854, and February, May, August, and October of the present year, and they amount to 52 men per 1,000 for the eastern half of the empire, and 64 men per 1,000 in the western half. It is assumed that there are 250 in every 1,000 of an age to bear arms and liable to conscription, but that only a third of them are really capable. This gives 83 per 1,000 as the whole fighting strength of the empire. If we deduct from this the 52 per 1,000 already levied in the western provinces, and the 64 in the western, it follows that there only remain 30 per 1,000 in the former and 20 per 1,000 in the latter. Hence, it is evident that if the war goes on for the next 10 months as it has for the last 20—that iz, if Russia makes the same efforts, with the s tme losses, she will literally have levied the whole of her fighting population, and will thenceforward have to carry on the war as she best can with her existing army. The only addition that can be made to this estimate comes within ♦ery definite rules. While war is making this havoc with the men from 17 to 45, the gap is but slowly filled up by those of a lower ago_ The pee* of acetrautiou sseberdi-e naught all the resources of nature, and even if Russia were to proscribe all the unnesssary arts and amitil every exemption in order to augment the levies, the supply would still proceed at the slowest walking pace to overtake a galloping de mand. There is no evading the force of these figures. All the fulsome stuff we have heard about the hordes of Russia and her inex- haustible resources is reduced to its proper level of stamp oratory on the simplest calculation, and on the confession of the Imperial ukases. 'Whence, indeed, are these hordes to come ? From Finland —an icy desert, fringed with a few fishing villages, and wandered over by a few wretched breeders of cattle or reindeer ? From the Baltic or western provinces? There Russia's best soldiers await in f4l oo my idleness the attacks of our Baltic fleet, the fickleness of the Prussian, and the inextinguishable hatred of the Polo. From the southern provinces —mercifully spared from levies, from their paucity of population and their sufferings by the war ? From Siberia, the whole population of which does not equal that of Scotland, or even of this metro polis, and which has not contributed so many to the war ? No. The " inexhaustible resources" of Russia aro a delusion. We have only to press on the war for a year or two, and the nightmare will be found to be nothing more than a dream. Perhaps it will be said, these aro very cold blooded calculations. But war is a matter of cal culation. We are right to count the cost on both sides. Had we allowed Russia to proceed uu molested in her criminal enterprises last year, we should then h ave h a l " Holy Russia"—" in exhaustible Russia"—" devoted Russia," with her paramount destiny of conquest, her plausible vil lainy, her exclusive addiction to arms, and her abominable hypocrisy, securely seated on both sides of the Bosphorus, and with her population of 61,000,000 suddenly grown into at least 80,000,000 by the absorption of the Turkish empire. There would then have been some sort of ground for the extravagant terms in which British orators have worshipped the rising sun of barbarism. We should have reason to believe its destiny paramount. In a very short time the very same men would have told us that we had let the proper occasion pass by, and could not now repair tho omission. Our pre sent duty is a painful one, but it is forced upon us. It is not without cost, or blood ; nor is there any profit in it, excepting only the deliverance of Eu rope from a neighbour with a paramount destiny. It is better that we should have to fight the inex haustible subjects of a conquering pontiff in the Crimea than on the Bosphorus, or in Egypt, or, perhaps, nearer home. Oar children will thank us for what we have done, though we have met with some abuse from our contemporaries, who think we might have left the Russians and the income-tax alone for the present. Possibly they wished to see what would come of it. Charles Lamb, on sending a dog to a friend, says— " If he bites your child, shoot the child and tie up the dog, to see whether he is mad." Wo ought, it seems, to have left the Turk to his fate, and then waited to see what more the Russian would do. His subsequent career might or might not justify our forbearance. These are curious speculations, but, in our humble opi nion, they do not become a great nation or a faith ful ally. We bad no alternative but to step in to the rescue of Turkey, and every step she has taken since, every discovery, every event, has satisfied us that it is our duty to continue the war till we can dictate terms to Russia. Were any argument wanting, it would be found in the language of her apologists, who do nothing but glorify her power, her virtues, her ability, her religion, her numbers —everything, in fact, that is formidable and menac ing to her neighbours. There is only one way of dealing with these conquering races, and we are not ashamed to point it out, and prove by the evi dence of figures that we have already made con siderable progress. (Prom, the Times of this day.) The military campaign has ended, and the poli tical campaign has not begun, so that we are left to entertain ourselves as best we may between the retrospect of the one and the anticipation of the other. What Ministers will do during the next session it is not difficult to divine—their measures will be few and their estimates will be many. They will evince a marked preference for short debates, and carefully abstain fr om anything which may have a tendency to prolong them. But what will be the tactics of the Opposition ? We do not now speak of Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright, nor of their new associates, Mr. Gladstone and Sir James Graham, —they have already run through the full cycle of change, and cannot possibly, w e should suppose, occupy any other positiou than that which they held with so much discredit at the end of the last session. Nor are we curious to inquire as to the course to be taken by Mr. Disraeli, satisfied that from him we shall hear nothing that will com mit him either as to peace or war, and that he will omit no opportunity of damaging the position of Ministers, without caring much whether by such a course he improves his own or not ; but what we do feel curious and anxious to know is, what will be the course adopted towards the Government by the real Tory Opposition, and whether they will follow those who are ready to lead them in a con tinued series of assaults on the Treasury bench. It is for this reason, rather than from any great importance that we attach to his opinions, that we have read with considerable interest the speech recently delivered by Lord Naas to his consti tuents at Coleraine, for Lord Naas occupies exactly that position in the Opposition which entitles him to be looked upon as a fair exponent of the views of the more moderate of his party. The speech appears to us to be a very clear and credi t table view of the present state of the nation, and quite as favourable to the Whig Government as they have any reason to expect. It may, in deed, be taken as a fair exposition of the opinions of the great mass of Englishmen of the present time. He treats the idea of making peace on the i basis of the Four Points as perfectly exploded and ridiculous. He considers that we have a right to much more ; that we ought not to negotiate till we have effectually cured Russia of her love of aggres sion and domination ; and that, when we do nego tiate, the discussion should be between principals, and the assistance of Austria and Prussia entirely dispensed with. For his own part, he professes his readiness to support the present or any other Government that shall carry on the war with ♦igour. _ It is only just to the present Opposition to admit that they have acted towards the Government of Lord Palmerston with more forbearance and gene rosity than was ever shown by any Opposition to any Government during a time of war. Had the Whigs been in Opposition they might have found in the traditions of their own party, in the con duct of Mr. Fox and Lord Grey, ample authority fora far less patriotic and magnanimous course of action. It is painful and humiliating to read the Parliamentary debates of those days, And to see how entirely the narrow spirit of party and the disappointments of political ambition were allowed to darken the clearest judgments and sway the most honest lipS. No contrast can be more humiliating than to read the real history of the toils, the vigilance, the manliness, and the truth of our own great Commander as depicted in his despatches and the unfair, exaggerated state ments and inferences concerning him which formed the staple of Opposition speeches in Parliament during the first years of his glorious career. An unfair depreciation of our own country, an undue elevation of the position of our antagonist, the most desponding forebodings of distress and ruin, and the most bitter and systematic perversion of everything into an attack on Ministers form the melancholy staple of our Parliamentary debates while we had a Wellington to command on land and Nelsons, Oollingwoods, and Exmouths to direct the operations of our fleet. The strong conviction of the justice of our cause and the absolute neces sity of fighting it out to a thoroughly successful issue, are a sure guarantee to us that our Opposition will not so far transgress the bounds of reason and fairness which the existing state of public opinion imperatively prescribes to them, and within those limits it is probably not desirable that they should be less active than they are. Already there are not wanting symptoms that the Ministry fully appre ciate the great strength of a position which places them almost beyond the reach of hostile majorities, and use it, as such advantages have generally been used by their party, for the purpose of family in terest and the promotion of cliques and coteries. All that we have a right to ask from the Opposition is that they will consider before they take any step which may have the effect of weakening or destroy ing the present Government, unless they are ready to replace it. There must arise in the course of the war innumerable cases in which, without the influence of party spirit, persons may and nitiA honestly differ, and we have no right to claim that these differences should be in all cases and under all circumstances suppressed. All the country has a right to claim from the Opposition is that they will well weigh and con s id er w h a t th ey do, and- set the duty of not needlessly embarrassing the conduct of the war against the importance of the subject of difference, and that such a paralysis of the Executive as is implied by a Ministerial defeat ghoul I be fairly weighed and balanced against the evil that may result from not sufficiently vindicat ing their opinions. No reasonable man will charge the Opposition with want of patriotism for freely discussing the conduct of Ministers, nor, if it see occasion sufficiently serious to warrant such a step, in ejecting them from office by a vote of want of confidence. But, of all things, let the Opposition beware of lending itself to such, ambuscades as that-planned - by Mr. Gladstone at the end. of last session with respect to the Turkish Loan. It is necessary to distinguish between such things as may fairly be done by one party of the subjects of the Crown of England, carrying on a legitimate struggle against another party, and things which are worthy only of the friends of our enemies. All things are fair in war, and we have no reason to complain if oar enemy steal upon us in the thick mist of a November morning, or leap into our trenches under the veil of murky and stormy mid night. He has a right to conceal his advances, to mislead us as to his movements, and to snatch by stratagem an advantage which the utmost exertions of his force and bravery could not obtain. This is becau , e he is our foe, our open and avowed enemy, who neither gives nor ass for confidence,:and who has no other object than to inflict upon as much in jury as possible. But when men representing some of our first constituencies—men who have asked for and received our confidence, and whom we have suffered to lead us into our present war—when such men as these steal a march upon us, and en deavour—treating the Government of their country as their enemy, and their own nation as the army to be out-manoeuvred and surprised—to snatch an advantage which they could not take by fair means, and to weaken the good understanding between us and our ally, such conduct is not that of an Oppo sition, but of adherence to our country's enemies, and is not likely, even by this nation, most tole rant of all political obliquities, to be soon, if ever, forgotten or forgiven. To this discreditable proceeding but too many of the Opposition lent their support. We sincerely hope the error will not be repeated, and that, what ever opportunities Mr. Gladstone may seek for snapping an advantage, he will henceforth only number among his supporters those who institute in the name of peace proceedings closely akin to those of civil war. Of this we are certain, that there is no means which the Opposition could adopt so likely to discredit it with the country, and to strew thorns in its future political course, as to lend themselves to the ill-omened combination of Cobden, Graham, Bright, and Gladstone, and no more certain means of raising themselves in the estimation of the country than by an honest and patriotic forbearance, and by leaving those whose ambition, conceit, or fickleness has made them the advocates of a disgraceful peace to work out their own conclusions for themselves, and to show how little their sophistries can avail to convince or their stratagems to mislead the representatives of the English people. ( From the Constitutionnel. ) General Bosquest, in responding to the congra tulations offered to him by the municipal tdee putation of a tow n near P au , ma d e use chancesuf the following terms i n s p ea ki ng o f the war appears of a speedy peace ......" A long n rea lity to me improbable, for Russia no army." From such lips although it timent possesses great importance , sense sense and ahassical ilar sen is merely the expression of common eo a nd judged for experience. Russia has been a se prism which has the last 40 years through ro ert i nns ; it could greatly exaggerated her real A P h has been duped by her almost be imagined that she she now judges her own false grandeur and that d the power of the Western present position and resources with the same par tial eye as questioned ago. with the Forty years of con stantgovernments two u d rt to s contract alliances labour directed had apparently succeeded small Northern Courts V ' , many for Russia, the more so as in gaining all ai government of the German Confe the oligarchic more than any other lends itself trigue u tion. The little states over the and the rr refuge p for traditions,• • R hi ne are . prejudices, and feudal authority. Luxury, gold, an d fl attery, ti lted with the Olympian menaces of the Russian diplomacy, succeeded in producing in the East the sa me results obtained in the West by family alli ances ; superficial minds could believe that the E m peror Nicholas was' really the serious and last ing arbitrator of states. The unlimited despotism of the Czars prevents the departure from Russia of any family without special permission. This permission, granted with considerable tact and discretion, bad still more increased the pres tige of Russia for Southern Europe in observ ing the elegant and generous nobles, l a vish of their gold, accompanied by the most distinguished ladies, imagined that these were the faithful repre sentatives of Russia, where all were supposed to the be equally wealthy and well informed. -e, n population of Russia, undoubtedly great,ii h as been employed to au gme nt the general The population of opn respect ing her military . strength. Russia, it is said, is 70 millions. This is very pos- I sible, but this population, larg e as it sounds, is but trifling in proportion to the extent of the territory it covers. The population of Russia gives one in habitant to the square kilometre•(s-Bths of a league), whilst that of France pres_tits 35 inhabitants to the kilometre. The Russian army, even on paper, consists only of a million men, whilst the active French army exceeds half a million—thus, in pro portion to the respective populations, it results that France possesses for every soldier she loses seventeen times more recruits than Russia. The political supremacy claimed by Russia is completely ruined ; her nobles are like her supre macy, and with respect to her armies, they fac from accord with the gigantic idea.of the torrent of men who it was said were to submerge Europe. 40,000 French and English have resisted the moat determined efforts of the combined Russian armies, three of which have been shamefully defeated on their own soil at Alma, Inkerman, and Traktir. In war one must not expect to be ever victorious, but one must be resigned to perish when the dig nity of the flag demands, it. The Russian navy will never wash out the stigma of having ignomini ously avoided all contest. On the contrary, the Turkish squadron covered it se lf with glory at Si nope, when it sank its last sailor and its last gun. Russia, who has ever considered the Turks as bar barians, has not once availed herself of the hun dreds of occasions offered to display her broadsides to the Allied fleets. Russia, launched by her go. vernment into an insane and detestable war, de ceived by her diplomacy with respect to the re sources of Europe, seems to be reserved by Provi dence for that severe punishment which always awaits unbounded and immoral ambition. THE AUSTRIAN ARREST OF AN OFFICER IN THE BRITISH SERVICE. The Patrie publishes the following paragraph:— A letter from Vienna, received just as we were going to press, speaks of the remonstrances addressed to the Austrian Cabinet relative to the arrest in the Princi• wattles of a deserter who had become an officer in the English service. In many political circles the opinion is expressed that Count Coronini ought not, under present circumstances, to have raised the difficulty, the great in. terests now pending between Austria and the Western Powers being of infinitely greater moment than any question about a deserter. Some people go farther, and maintain that the arrest is as illegal as it was inop. portune, not haring been' effected on the national ter ritory, but in a neutral country, where Austria enjoys no sovereign rights. A letter in the Silesian Gazette says that the Au*. trian Cabinet is disposed to accede to the wishes of England, but in the meantime Colonel Thies, the officer in question, will remain in the prison of Hermanstadt. A private letter from Bucharest adds some par ticulars to those already given respecting the arrest of Colonel Thies : This gentleman, a Hungarian, held a commission in the Lend Transport Corps, British service, and at the time of his arrest was in Wallachia, to buy horses and car riages for the use of the corps to which he was attached. On the evening of the 31st ult, he visited Bucharest, as on former oecesions, in order to receive his carriages, and was unfortunately recognised by two Austrian offi cers the following morning, as he was riding past Count Coronini's residence. These officers, it appears, gave in formation immediately against him as a deserter from the Austrian army in 1849, and at 2 p.m. on the Ist of November be was arrested in his room at his hotel by order of Count Coronini. For the purpose of putting him off his guard an officer visited him beforehand in his apartment, and began conversing with him en ancien comrade, he suspecting no danger, and relying, no doubt, on the English uniform as ample protection. But, if so, be leaned upon a broken reed ; for a strong guard, consisting of 3 officers and 16 men, with fixed bayonets, was marched down to the hotel. The main body halted in the gateway, and the officer making a sign to two men they immediately entered Col. Thies's room, and the officer who had previously been conversing with him in the most friendly manner announced to him that he was arrested as a deserter. Ho was ordered to strip off his British cavalry frock ; this be refused : it was torn from his back and an Austrian capote thrust on him, and in place of his gold-laced cap they put on his head, in derision, a light blue cap, such as is worn by the com mon soldiers in the Hungarian regiments, telling him " it was fit he should wear the same clothes as those in which he had deserted." He was then motioned into a carriage, and being surrounded by bayonets reluctantly obeyed ; the officer in command taking the seat at his side, and a soldier mounting the box, the carriage pro ceeded at a slow pace, under the escort of the guard, to the prison, where he is now lying. On the arrest being notified to Mr. Colquhoun he lost no time in proceeding to Count Coronini's residence, and, in a tone becoming his position, demanded the liberation of the prisoner, be being actually in the British service, wearing its uniform, on Turkish territory, and entrusted with a special com mission on behalf of the British army in the Crimea. The Count put himself into a towering rage, exclaiming, " I know no Colonel Thies, but one Thies, a deserter, whose name was posted upon the public gibbet at Fent kirchen for five weeks. Savez vous, Monsieur, que j'ai le pouvoir de le pendre !" " Sur votre responsabilitte votre Excelenee," replied Mr. Colquhoun. "Un de serteur," shouted the Count, "je l'arrete partout on je le trouve, et ai mon gouvernement m'ordonne a le ren dre je casserai mon epee." He then moderated his tone A little, and exhibitedenme approach towards politeness, refusing, however, to liberate the prisoner, and only con senting to delay further measures until the receipt of instructions from Vienna. DEATH OF MAJOR-GENERAL FREDI. MARKHAM, C.B, We regret to announce the death of Major-General Markham, C. 8., which melancholy event took place yesterday morning, at 4 o'clock. The deceased General was in his 50th year, and was the second son of Admiral John Markham, Eon of Dr. Markham, Archbishop of York. He entered the army as ensign in the 32d Regiment in May, 1824, and had seen considerable service in North America and the E tst Indie. during his military career. He was with his regiment during the rebellion in Canada in 1837, and was wounded in four places at the action of St. Denis. Gen. Markham then accompanied the 32d Regiment to the Eat Indies, as Lieutenant-Colonel, and served in the Punjaub campaign in 1848-9. He also commanded the Second Infantry Brigade at the fires and second siege operations before Mooltan, where he war wounded ; also a division at the action cf Somjkoond, where the enemy's position was carried and seven guns taken ; and the Bengal column at the storming and capture of the city of Mooltan, in Jan., 1819. The gallant de ceased was also present at the surrender of the fort and garrison of Cheniote, and commai!ded a brga , le at the hatVe of Goojerat. Soon after he was anointed Adju tant-General of the Royal forci.s in India, whiehappoint mv_int he held till he obtained his promotion as Major- Genera'. General Markham was then appointed to the command at Peshawur, but when within two days' jour ney to assume his command he was recalled, in order to take the command of a division of the army in the Cri tom. The gallant officer at once set out, and performed the journey to Calcutta in the unexampled space of 18 days during the hot season, and it ..was from the exces sive fatigue of that journey that the seeds of his fatal ill ness arose. On his arrival in the Crimea he took the command of the Second Division, previously c mantled by General Pennefather, and com m andedHe that division at the last attack on was just able to see Sebastopol 'health whenordered home. became so precarious that he was ordered 24 ult., and, after the R se; iis Queen, n a e n c- d He arrived at Southampton on the 24th expired yester a very glorious career in his pr Companion of the da.7 morning, to the extrellle.g-rwieafseoaf tians.
