The Sun. — London, England, 1855-03-29 00:00:00

LONDON, THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1855. Each day adds additional strength to the sinister rumours referred to in our impression of yesterday. It is even more positively asserted, and there seems to be but too much reason to fear, that the Western Powers have yielded to the insidious persuasions of Austria, and agreed to relinquish the demand for the destruction Of Sebastopol ! A prima facie case has been established, and it would be but a false delicacy to permit the full consummation of the evil with out protesting most energetically, while there is yet time, against a matter so injurious and dis honourable to those who have hitherto engaged in the contest. It is one, and by no means the least injurious, consequence of secret diplomacy, that the people are hoodwinked, and the voice of public opinion silenced, until it is too late to pre vent an unwise and impolitic article in a treaty. Matters that would excite the deepest indignation throughout the length and breadth of the land are arranged sub silentio, and com plaints are then hushed by an official declaration that the mischief is then irreparable, and that any discussion will only prove injurious to the public service. It is through this vice, inherent in the system, that the failures and deficiencies of the Representatives of Great Britain have be come so notorious that it has actually passed into a proverb that " what England gains by the sword she loses by diplomacy," and that she has, with rare exceptions, permitted others to bear away the rewards and honours earned by the sweat and bloodshed of her gallant sons. It is time that this serious nuisance should be abated—that the representatives of free and independent constituencies should assert the rights and privileges of those by whom they have been selected for the discharge of the arduous and important duties confided to their hands. The Royal is not the only prerogative to be respected in Parliament. At the time of the Reform Bill a new and considerable infusion of the democratic element was admitted into the Constitution, and although its fruits have not yet arrived at. maturity, although we have not yet shaken off the family influences and red-tapist tricks that led to such pernicious results, yet even the most servile " waiters on PROVIDENCE" can no longer be influenced by the obsolete maxims which satisfied a Boroughmongering and Tory House of Commons. For mere decency's sake, and that they may have some prospect of re-election whenever called on to render an account of their respective stewardships, they must have some more plausible arguments to rely on, some points less subversive of the " majesty of the people." Two reasons have been put prominently for ward in favour of the course said to be adopted by the French and English Plenipotentiaries at the ' Vienna, Conference. First, it is said that means may be taken to render Russia innoxious for the future, of effectually muzzling the Northern Bear aid Paring its claws, without insisting on the dis mantling of Sebastopol, the destruction of the fortifications erected with such exceeding labour an d expense. Secondly, that, under any circum stances, the pending negotiations must prove abortive, in asmu ch as the new conditions substi tuted for those relating to Seb as t opol will prove sso unpalatable to Russia that they must neces aarily be rejected, and that, by the apparent first instance, con cession to Austria in the in a matter which she has taken so deeply to heart, We may secure her entire co-operation, while ne utrality was the utmost that could be a nticipated if th e destruction of the Russian stronghold were made a sine qua non in the first instance. Now, to the first of these arguments, we must distinctly and unequivocally demur. So long as Sebastopol stands with unabated strength, so long as it is permitted to threaten Stamboul, there can be no permanent peace. New pretexts can easily be found whenever it may suit the views of the AUTOCRAT to follow up the policy inaugurated by the first PETER, and so steadily kept in sight by his successors. Should a favour able opportunity arise, there will be no great difficulty in finding some peg whereon to hang a grievance sufficient to warrant a new appeal to arms and new aggressions ; that is to say, to Muscovite consciences, which are by no means thin-skinned whet() the interests of Holy Russia are at stake. Taking even the most favourable view of the case—supposing that, contrary to all former expe rience, implicit confidence might be reposed in the good faith and moderation of the Russian Go vernment, still the Ottoman Empire would fall by a certain though gradual decay, arising from the incessant strain on its resources, and the ne cessity of maintaining a powerful armament by land and water sufficient to repel any sudden attack that might be made before adequate assistance could be obtained from its distant and not easily excited Allies. Some approximate estimate may be formed of the annual expendi ture thereby rendered indispensable, and of the formidable consequences that might attend the undue taxation of the people. Any other condi tion would, in fact, seal the ruin of the SULTAN, who, indeed, would become " the sick man" which he appeared to be to the Autocratic vision, and respecting the distribution of whose assets immediate arrangements might be made. Nor would France and England eslape with impunity from the pecuniary consequences of the mistake. They, too, would have to maintain fleets, and possibly forts, iu the Euxine, and a permanent source of expense would arise which could not be averted until the total overthrow of the Sublime Porte or the real humiliation of Russia, attested by the destruction of Sebastopol. These are matters not to be lightly encountered from the under truckling to Germanism, and the unreasonable deference exhibited to the wishes of Austria. , A 3 to the second point it is scarcely worthy of notice. We should indeed regret to see the English Government exhibit duplicity and trickiness similar to that of which we have so loudly and so justly complained when manifested by others. We believe that " honesty is the best policy" in diplomatic as in all other matters, nor will the people of England readily sanction a policy opposed to all their former notions and habits. Let the popular representatives, then, of all shades and varieties of political opinion speak out boldly and unmistakeably. Let them tell the Goverunfent some of the consequences that must inevitably follow au unwise and dishonourable peace, which any one must be that allows the retention of Sebastopol by Russia, save as a merely commercial port. The least of these results will be the immediate overthrow and per manent exclusion from office of all who have sanctioned a course so discreditable and injurious, and most probably a public impeachment of the parties chiefly responsible. Let us then at once shake off the apathy by which we have so long boon afflicted. Let the people of England assert their own dignity, and they will cause it to be respected throughout the whole of the civilised world—aye, even in Russia itself. If Poland is to be consigned to eternal ruin, why, then, let these who consent to her perdition do something elsewhere worthy of the crisis and worthy of our past sacrifices. Lord PALMERSTON'S memorable pause at the mention of Poland, and hi 3 following declaration that its present constitu tion was a standing menace to Germany, must now be interpreted by his reply on Tuesday to Mr. PHINN. He did not, indeed, recall his words ; he rather tacitly confirmed them. He was not prepared, however, to adopt action in conformity with them. We infer that he could have had but one of two objects in view in his first declaration —or possibly indeed he aimed at both ono to revive the general opinion of the boldness of his foreign policy, the other to hint to Russia what England would drive him to if she were not compliant enough at Vienna. We have already stated our conviction that Russia would give up her Black Sea predominance, substantially as well as diplo matically, if she were certain that otherwise the Allies would attack her in Poland. We fear she knows better, and that the result will be we shall have neither the Black Sea nor Poland. Our clever negotiators began at the Austrian end of the proposed stipulations ; they have secured the Danube for her at the cost of our sacrifices, and now that worthless varlet will give her secret and efficacious aid to getting rid of the War by counselling the Allies to peace—to a peace which will damn them to the eternal infamy of those who signed the Convention of Ohara. We cannot, indeed, well believe that Lord PALMERSTON has sold himself to Mr. BRIGHT and Austria ; we cannot conceive in that case how he could face the present Parliament, or any which a dissolution would substitute for it. He was put into office, not to save the aristocracy by huddling up this great War for the fundamental rights of Europe, as if it were some parish squabble ; he was demanded as the Premier who would carry on the War with vigour. If he will leave Poland to its wretched fate, so much the more must he utterly crush the Russian power in the Black Sea. This country has set its heart on the emancipation of all the nations better than herself, whom Russian barba rism has trodden under its hoof. If the noblest of the victims is still to be left ou the rack, will it be endured that nothing is to be done towards thoroughly securing the last intended victim ? If war is not to be carried to a fresh locality, are we to retire defeated—for that would be the fact—from the part where we have put forth our energies ? It is in the power of the Allies to bring Russia to her senses in the Black Sea. If we do not mean to invade Poland from the Baltic, at least this year, then it would be better to send a part of our Baltic fleet and their gun-boats to the East. They might take with them no inconsiderable amount of reinforcements ; our gun-boats could even approach Perekop, and our ships could aid, if it be necessary, in defence of Eupa toria, for they have done so already. But for what earthly reason delay to attack Odessa, and to demolish the Circassian forts ? Odessa is still aiding the traismission of troops to the Crimea ; still the base of Russian operations on the Danube. It ought to be surrendered to us, or bombarded by us. It is childish to talk of barbarity in dealing with barbarians. Nothing but war in earnest will bring the new CzAnt° understand his position. It will lessen suffering, and not cruelly inflict it, to show no mercy to anything which can aid a Russian a c r o a ul y d , al O a trlnar gun-boats, too, could enter Europe o f its and p o u n n ly ish the enemy whicl t t il l e ta p s a robbed nub e, navigable mouths, an d cou ld muke the navigation free by more efficient means than diplom atic document guns, would hot s with gun-boats ane l i Bove, too, th at We cannot eas il y b e - Sir E.

To c l ear all the coast of Russian forts and depots of provisions is the first great step. The next is to make sure of the Crimea. Nov, with gun-boats, all approach of Russian tro ops by Kertch or the Putrid Sea might be completely prevented. It would then remain to strengthen OMER PACHA till he could prevent reinforcements arliving through Perekop, or till both he and the Allied Armies could commence field operations against the Russians, and invest the town cora-. pletely. That may now be the least costly plan —least costly both of life and money. Supplied by laud carriage only, the commissariat stores, and perhaps ammunition, of Sebastopol could not hold out for long. The Russians in the field de feated, and those in the town left to their own resources, we imagine the game would be soon played out. At least, since the generals lot slip the opportunity of walking into Sebastopol after the victory of the Alma, and since they have allowed the Russians to construct earthworks which could only be stormed at a prodigious sacri fice, would it not be far easier to augment our strength till we can drive the enemy from the Crimea, and take the town at our leisure. Of one thing we are quite certain—that any terms, not including the razing of the fortifications of Sebas topol, will be fatal to the prestige of France and Eni,, , land, and will overwhelm with ruin and dis grace the authors of the peace. They would live to point the jests of COBDEN and BRIGHT, and sink beneath the execrations of the country they lvd disgraced. THEATRE ROYAL HAYMARKET. Under the management of Mr. Buckstone.

Sir Erskine Perry has given notice of a motion, bearing on this subject, for to-morrow (Friday). SOCIETY OE ARTS.—Dr. W. H. Smith, of Philadk phia, read last night before the society a paper "On the Utilisation of the Slags, or Molten Mineral Products of Smelting Purr aces."

One few ure of it is deserving of particular notice. We mean the list of supplemental names, consisting of persons who have commenced Luqi• nees since the Lion cf the Post-office London Di rectory far 1835, and alterations of names which appear therein, so that while the SUppletnent recommends itself to all classes by the completi.ness of its Parliamentary and Post-office information, which is given, so far as we can discover, with remarkable accuracy, its purchase will be deemed an absolute necessity by the possessors of the larger work. - ESCAPE AND CAPTURE OF ItCSSIANI PRISONERS.— LEWES, March 28.—This morning the town was thrown into a state of great excitement by the escape of three prisoners from the war prison, and their subsequent capture. It appears that between 9 and 10 o'clock Lieutenant Mann, the Governor, took a party o f pri soners cut on the Downs for an airing ; and while they were gone the three prisoners made their escape from the prison dressed in plain clothes. They were first seen in the streets about a quarter to 11, but were supposed to be either Frenchmen or German musicians. They took the shortest route for the railway station, and arrived there just after the !departure of the up-train, so that it would appea r th e y con t emp l a t e d s t ar ti ng by train. They then turned up a lane towards High-street, and then found the prison guard were pursuing them, upon which they ran off up Nigh-street as fast as they could, followed by a large mob and a butcher on horseback ; they turned up Fisher-street, and ran into the back yard of the White Hart Hotel, in a stable attached to which one of them was captured, and another ran into the kitchen. The third managed to elude hie pursuers, but he was shortly afterwards discovered under some trees in the Castle-gardens, and in a few minutes he was in the grip of a couple of pensioners, who marched him back to prison. They are said to have scaled the wall, which is built of brick and very high, by means of ropes. PETITIONS TO PARLIAMENT.—The 20th report, issued yesterday, includes 2 petitions for the abolition of church rates signed by 213 persons (including one person on be half of a public meeting) ; a petition from the Liver pool " Working Men's Protestant Reformation So ciety," for the enforcement of the ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Act ; 65 petitions against opening places of public amusement on the Lord's-day, signed by 11,758 persons ; and 16 in favour of opening such places on the Lard's-clay (after 1 o'clock), signed by 8,110 persons ; 2 petitions against the Marr:age Law Amendment Bill, signed by 44 persons (including 15 clergymen of the rural deaneries of Middlewich and Nant vvich) ; 4 petitions for closing public-houses and beer-shops on Sunday, signed by 232 persons ; 19 pe titions in favour of the Newspaper Postage and Stamp Duties Bill ; and 1 against the Newspaper Stamp Duties Bill (in addition to former petitions) ; 123 petitions for an abolition of the mileage duty on carriages, signed by 518 persons ; 37 petitions against the distillation of alcohol from grain, signed by 11,547 persons ; 35 for prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors, signed by 715 persons, and 64 for prohibiting their sale on Sundays, signed by 13,645 persons ; 11. petitions against the Nuisances Re moval Bill, 83 against the Public Health Bill, and 1 in favour of the latter measure, and 20 petitions for a re peal of the Sale of Beer Act of 1854, signed by 60,345 ,persons,n; &c.

Advices from Odessa of the 18th state that the report of the death of Prince Menschikoff is false. Powerful bodies of cavalry are on their way to the Crimea. VIENNA, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28. The local papers publish the following : CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 22. The treaty of alliance between Sardinia and Turkey is signed, The Banshee, coming from the Crimea, brings the news of the death of Prince Menschikoff. Vely Pasha is appointed Governor of Candia. French ships of tho line are to sail for the Crimea. FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The Moniteur announces that Queen Victoria has invited the Emperor and the Empress to come to England. Their Majesties will proceed to Lon don about the middle of next month. The Minister of Foreign Affairs left Paris on Wednesday evening for London, and on his return . will proceed to Vienna to assist M. do Bourqueney at the Conferences. The secret of the conferences of Vienna seems to be exceedingly well observed, as may be inferred from the progressive diminution of details given by the foreign journals. In fact, only three of those last received pretend to know anything of what is passing. - One is the Cologne Gazette, which says that in the first three conferences, the three least important -ofSthe four points were admitted in the form which they had received in the pro tocol of January 7 ; and that the question at pre sent before the conference is to decide on the de tails, which is to be effected, it declares, on the plan adopted by the committees of the Diet, namely, to have -a: report presented •by one of its members, and then a discussion entered on point by point. The mattnts•to be decided on are, it adds, the in stitution Of a syndicatelor regulating the navlga tiou of the Danube ; the abandonment of the sta tion of Kilia by the RUssians ; the evacuation of such isles of the Danube as they cannot show their clear right to occupy ; the measures to be exe cuted for the protectorate of the principalities and of the Christians of the East, &e. Another journal which speaks of the acts of the conference is the .ilamburg News, but it merely states that a counter-proposition of Prince GortschakofT, con cerning the third point—the power of Russia in the Black Sea—has been unanimously declared by the membeis of the congress insufficient. Lastly, the Wanderer of Vienna affirms that the point relating to the navigation of the Danube pre sents very considerable difficulties, Russia mani festing gceat unwillingness to yield as much as is required by the members of the conference. All this appears mere speculation, founded on the rumours in circulation. The following private telegraphich despatches have been received here to-day. " TRIESTE, 27th.—We have intelligence from Constantinople to the 19th. There was a rumour that the French had made a sharp attack ou Sebas topol ou the 14th. The weather waa fine there. At Constantinople the preparations for the French Emperor's arrival continued. According to the latest news from the mouths of the Danube, the Russians opposed fresh obstacles to the navi gation of the river by the Austrians. News from Trebisondo to the sth had reached Constanti nople. General Williams had caused three Turk ish generals to be removed from their commands and put under arrest. From Athens we learn that Genet al Travellas is dead." " BERLIN, 27th.—General Osten-Sacken an nounces that on March 17 Three battalions of Zouaves, followed by strong reserves, attacked the Russian positions established at Sebastopol, before one of the new redoubts of the besieged. If this report of General Osten-Sacken is to be believed the Zouaves were repulsed with heavy loss. Since that attempt,' adds the Russian General, ' the enemy has acted with less vigour against the fortifications of the town.' Prince Gortschakoff arrived at Sebastopol on the 20th." " HAMBURG, 26th.—The Northern Bee of St. Petersburg publishes a manifesto of the Sacred Synod, in which all the Russian population are called to arms to defend the Orthodox Church." " VIENNA, March 27.—Lord John Russell has received an invitation from the King of Prussia to spend Easter at Berlin." " MADRID, 27th.—The discussion on the bill relating to the sale of the church property began in the Cortes yesterday. The Court leaves to morrow for Aranjuez." The Asmodee steam-frigate sailed from Toulon yesterday with troops for the army of the East. The Salut Pablic of Lyons states that the Avig non Railway Company have received orders to prepare to convoy 3,000 soldiers a-day, with their campaigning materiel, instead of 1,500, as pre viously oidered.

A letter from Varna, of the 14th, in the Post Ampt Gaz:ette of Frankfort, says :—" Reinforce ments have again been sent this clay to Eupatoria, to the number of 4200 infantry and 500 cavalry. Omer Pacha considers it necessary to augment his forces before assuming the offensive. Troops con tinue to arrive hero from Bulgaria to complete the reserve." A letter from Vienna, in the Cologne Gazette, says :—" Information has been received here from Sebastopol that at a council of war held on the Bth, and presided over by General Osten-Saeken, the deliberation turned on the consequences of the probable capture of the southern side of Sebastopol. In consequence of the possibility of such an event, orders were given to disarm and sink five other vessels of war. The steam-vessels afterwards went through the pass and. showed themselves to the guard outside, but on a few exchangedng they returned into port. shots o l ti is e s Allied saidbbeing n tgi vessels la t k i e i p keeping decided at, the council of war to blow up the buildings forming the fortifications on the south, should the assault intended by the Allies be likely to succeed." According to a letter from the Crimea, in the Malta Times, the Russians did not come to the determination to sink the vessels which they had lately sent to the bottom in the harbour of Sebas topol, until they had removed them from place to place, and ascertai ne d th a t it was quite impossible to station them i n any place where they would not be exposed to the fire of the enemy. RUSSIA. The Abeille du Nord of St. Petersburg pub lishes a fanatical appeal to the Russian people to rise in arms for the defence of the Orthodox Church. It calls upon the clergy to exhort their flocks to fight for the good cause, and to impress upon them that the present war is the ancient war " of the Prince of Darkness against the Kingdom of Christ." It concludes with a prayer to the Almighty to ad mit those who fall on the field for the good cause at once into the Kingdom of Heaven. A letter, dated Hamburg, the 24th inst., says : " I lately announced to yon the arrival at Riga and Revel of four regiments of mounted Bashkirs, which were shortly to be followed by others. The last advices from Helsingfors also mention the march of several corps of Bashkirs, destined to form part of the army commanded by General de Berg in Finland. Detachments of those troops have even already arrived there, and taken up their quarters between Sweaborg and Abo. The Baslakirs have come from the Eastern extremity of the. Empire, and will be specially employed as advan ced g uards on the two shores of the Gulf of Finland. The arrival of the General of Artillery Yermoloff fro m Moscow, in the company of the two Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael, to assist at the funeral of the Emperor Nicholas, had produced a certain sensation at St. Petersburg. During the last 20 years the General, who resides at Moscow, has not visited the Russian. capital. He is a man gifted with extraordi nary energy, who was recalled at the beginning of the reign of the Emperor Nicholas, on account of his extreme severity, from the Government of the Caucasus, when he was replaced by M. Worenzoff. Since then he has lived in retirment at Moscow. Havng been latslpippointed by the nobility Commander-General of the National Mi litia of that province, the Emperor Alexander did not he sitate an instant to ratify that choice. It was believed at St. Petersburg that General Yermoloff had came to offer his servic:'s to Op F,Toreror. rr;e. r-at. War having been informed that a certain number of re cruits of the last levy belonging to the Tartar popula tion had absconded, in order to avoid serving in the Rue sian army, had decided that the void they left in the ranks should be filled up by as many able-bodied men of their families, whatever might be their rand and civil condition. Addresses of loyalty and offers of services voted by the nobility, continued to arrive daily at St. Peters burg, from the most remote provinces of the empire. The nobility of the Government of Tabs, convoked by their Marshal, had announced their rea.liness to levy and arm at their own expense the serfs on their re spective esta ,e 4, conformably to the clauses of the mani festo addressed to the Russian nation by the late Empe ror on the 26th Dee., 1851. The English consular agent at Kiel has just been officially informed by his Govern ment of the proximate arrival in that port of a steam war squadron, forming the advanced guard of the Baltic fleet. Kiel will accordingly become again this year the great depot of provisions for that fleet." Mom SARDINIA. Iu the sitting of the 24th of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin, a bill for a levy of 13,000 men was taken into consideration : M. Valsrio complained of the capricious manner in which he said the choice of the officers who were to tike past in the expedition to the Crimea had been made. Moreover, cavalry horses were being transferred to the artillery, and the English were buying up Piedmortese mules ; how, he asked, would the Piedmontese army find any, if it were at any time called upon to defend the country ? General Lamarmora, Minister of War, said that the Sardinian contingent would certainly go to the East, but whether to the Crimea, vi as not yet decided. As to the honourable gentlemen's complaints about the choice of the officers, he might learn at the War-office that the choice had not been by any means capriciously made. Nor could there be any objection to the English buying up mules in Piedmont, seeing an alliance had just been concluded with that country. As a proof that nothing relating to the expedition had been left to caprice, he would add that it was not he, but the late Duke of Geaoa, who eat to have had the command, and that all the necessary measures had been discussed between his Royal Highness and himself some time be fore his death. M. Isola trusted that every'possible precaution would be taken relative to the provisioning of the troops, and that the Government would keep the terrible example of the British army before their eyes. Gen. Lamarmora replied that nothing would be want ing in that respect. He added that six batteries of al til lerv, each of six pieces, would go with the expedition. The bill was then adopted. BELGIUM. In the Chamber of Representatives of Belgium on Monday, M. de Brouckere, Minister of Foreign Affairs, made the following observations relative to his conduct in the present ministerial crisis : " When this Chamber met, I had the honour of stating that the Cabinet had resol:ed on retiring. Since then attempts have been made to form a new Cabinet ; but thus far they have led to no result, and the negotiations are still continuing. In this situation I should act very improperly if I entered into a detailed statement. The moment for doing so has not yet arrived. I believe it right, however, to make two observations. It has been stated that the Ministry retired under the pressure of foreign influenca. I give to this rumour the most • formal denial. No pressure whatsoever was exercised on the Belgian Government. Our relations are equally good with all the States of Europe. None of them would think of weighing on the internal affairs of Belgium. Such is my first deciaratios.. It has been also said I took measures for reconstituting the Ministry with new elements. But that aho is one of the false rumours which have been so prodigally spread about during the last few days. I have had no communication on the subject with any one, either directly or indirectly, either personally or through another party. I know my duty too well to interfere with the Royal prerogative. I leave it in all its plenitude the exercise of its constitutional rights. Lastly, a short absence which I made a few days ago from Brussels is stated to have had a political object. But the object of that absence was the accom plishment of a pious family duty. I only saw when at Paris some members of my own family and intimate friends. The quality of minister does not assuredly pre- vent communications of that nature." I letter from Frankfort-on-the-Oder, in Prussia, of the 22d, says :—" By an order of the Minister of War, the exercises to which the officers of the landwehr are required to be subjected in the regi ments of the line, are to take place this year in the district of the 6th corps d'artnee with greater strict ness than usual, owing to existing political cir cumstances. The officers are to be required to pass from four to six weeks in battalions of the line." The Oest. Deutsche Post of Vienna announces that Spain and Portugal have acceded to the European coalition, and that the treaty was signed at Paris on the 21st. INDIA, CHINA, AND AUSTRALIA. TRIESTE, Wednesday, March 28.—The steamer Bombay arrived here at 11 a.m. this morning, in 112 hours from Alexandria. She brings the following summary of news from Alexandria : ALEXANDRIA, March 23.—The India mails leave Alexandria this day with advices from Calcutta of Feb. 24 ; Madras, Feb. 28 ; Galle, March 3; Bom bay, March 3 ; Shanghai, Feb. 6 ; Hong-koug, Feb. 15 ; Singapore, Feb. 23. The India )nail also brings advices from Sydney of Jan. 27 ; Melbourne, Jan. 31 ; Adelaide, Feb. 3 ; and from the Mauritius, Feb. 18. From India we learn that Hyder Khan bad ar rived at Jellalabad, as the representative of Dost Mahomed, on his way to Peshawur, to negotiate with the Chief Commissioner. ... Lord Dalhousie is gone to the Nielgherries. The condition of Oude becomes daily more de plorable. At Calcutta and Bombay trade was dull, and freights low. The price of opium has declined. The FoUr per Cents. are at a discount of 7 per cent.; the bank discount at 10 per cent. Exchange, 2.1. From China we learn that the French had again attacked Shanghai, and had been repulsed with loss by the rebels. The country round Canton is in the hands of the rebels. The export of tea from Foochow this season has reached 26,000,0001 b. Exchange at Canton, 47i ; Shanghai, 6.7. From Australia we learn that Sir W. Denison arrived at Sydney on the 17th of January. No further disturbances had occurred at Bal larat. Trade in Australia had somewhat improved, but, politically, matters were unsatisfactory. The prices of wool were flat ; the gold market was dull—price, 3/. 163. per oz. Freights have fallen.- Wool, ld. per pound weight ; tallow, 60s. per ton to London. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. LIVERPOOL, Thursday. This morning the Royal mail steam-ship Canada, Captain Stone, arrived in the Mersey, with the usual mails from the United States and British North America. Sha sailed from Boston on the 17th inst. and Halifax on the 19th, three days later than her appointed time ; and has brought, besides the mails, 80 passengers and $1,600,000 in specie on freight. The Royal mail steam-ship Africa, from hence on the 3d inst., arrived at Halifax on the 15th inst., and the United States steamer Pacific, from hence on the 27th ult., arrived at New York on the 13th inst. The news of the Emperor of Russia's death created a profound sensation. The latest date from California, per the Illinois, is Feb. 16th. She brought over a million dollars in gold dust. New diggings had been discovered. The trade was in a depressed state. From the Havannah we hear that tranquillity continues. , A bill had been introduced iuto the Legislature to exclude from the mines all persons who are not eligible to citizenship. This bill, if it becomes law, will drive from the mines many thousands of the Chinese. A new political party had sprung up in San Francisco, whose ulterior designs were supposed to aim at the formation of a Great Western Republic. It proposed immediately to organise Oregon and California into States, and to annex the Sandwich Islands and Senora, anctas much more of the terri tory of Mexico as can be conquered or_purehased. News from the Sandwich Islands, of the 27th January, state that the King had discontinued the negotiations for the annexation of the Islands to the United States. The British steamer Bogota arrived at Panama on the 15th ult., with $430,670 on freight, and the mails from Valparaiso to the Ist of February. Chili remained tranquil. The revolution at Para was at an end. The question of the Presi dency occupied the public mind, General Castilla having refused the post. The accounts from Jamaica of the 26th ult. are unimportant. Letters from Mexico of the 12th inst. report that Santa Anna had returned to the capital after having defeated the insurgents near Marenes, and forced the main body, under Alvarez, to retire after a desperate battle. The steamer Nashville would leave New York for Liverpool on the 21st inst., instead of the Pacific. At the departure of the steamer money was easier at New York, and stocks firm. The cotton market was unsettled. The market for broad , tuff f1ll:11 and rather easier. Pork had declined. Freight a trifle lower. Exchange PP. Englancl Las slightly Advan ce d • Bills on London, 1091 to 1091 ; on Paris , 5.11.1 to 5.131. Cotton, breadstuffs, and provisions were dull, but prices remained without material alteration. Iron was drooping ; 50 tons Scotch pig had been sold at 30 dols. for six months. THE NAVVIES AT TEFE TREiVCITES.- TDB SANITARY COMMISSIONER& • The'public will learn with scarcely less surprise than satisfaction that the main object of the Ciimean Rail way Expedition is already completed, and that the munitions of war are now being conveyed direct from Balaklava to the trenches. It is needless t say how vast a remission of toil to the overtaxed strength of the troops is thus effected, and with what increase of vigour and animation they now address them selves to the legitimate prosecution of the business of the siege, without the exhaustion consequent on lab urs wholly alien to those of an ordinary military nature. Moreover, the line is now laid and worked from Bala klava to the French camp, at the top of the steep in cline hitherto by horses, but at the date of the last al vices the engine had begun to supersede animal power, which was gladly, used for other purposes. Thanks to the agency of the railway, we have now begun to re ciprocate the services the French had bestowed upon us in our extremity, for a large quantity of hut and hospital timber bad been forwarded as long ago as the 10th, and such aid was highly appreciated by our allies, who are enthusiastic in their admiration of the system atised application and endurance of the navvies, and delighted by the methodical order and regularity that prevail threueh all the arrangements cf the corps. This recognition on the part of the French is the more remarkable as they themselves now are, and have all along been, well provided with horses and other means of transport. The branch to the opposite side of the harbour has for some time been completed, and available for removing the heavy guns an d mortars on t h e Dia mond wharf, and by rendering both sides of the bar beur available is of the greatest utility. The issue de partment of the commissariat for fuel en 1 barley bas for tome time back been removed from Balaklava to Kadikoi, where the navvies had likewise constructed a proper depot and platform, with the requisite sheds and conveniences. Of the assistance which the rail way corps are to the Commissariat, aed of - the immene say of the operations of the latter department, some idea may be formed when it is stated that of barley alone nearly 1,000 sacks are required by the army daily ; and in the conveyance of this vast quantity Mr. Daily, the Officer who looks after the matter, gladly acknowledges the assistance he receives from the navvies, and does everything in his power to facilitate its being rendered. So, indeed; do most of the heads and subordinates in all the other departments at Balaklava, the condition Of which has undergone a most beneficial change since the railway has begun to lighten it of some of tho enormous traffic, or rather impediments b traffic and aggravation of confusion, which had so long rendered it the isynonne of everything that was chaotic and distract ing. The removal of the issue department for all descrip tions of army requirements, as well as of forage and fuel from Balaklava, would, of course, still further contribute to relieve the town, and it is t) be hoped that by this time the Quartermaster-General has adopted' this course, es pecially as to the issue of food in the camp, which would save the men the necessity of coining all the distance to the town for provisions, and marching back with them. As further instances of the miscellaneous utility of the navvies, it may be mentioned that the Naval Bri gade falling short of water, the well-sinkers belonging to the railway corps had been sent to bore to obtain water in the neighbourhood of the camp, and it was ex, pected‘that their researches would be speedily efficacious. The" limekilns continue in full operation, and two more were being in course of construction near the Third Division in the front. The washing place for the hos pital had likewise been completed, and altogether the whole sphere embraced in or influenced by the opera tions of the railway corps was assuming= aspect in every way the reverse of what had prevailed a very short time ago. As late as the 17th, the date of the most recent ad vices we are now quoting from, the weather had been oc casionally extremely warm and enervating, and the navvies had begun to complainof a de c ree of lassitude which they had never experienced in England oven when the ther mometer bad ranged considerably .higher. This natu rally begets alarm as , to health, when the heat shall have really begun to act upon the prodigious area now affected by 'the process of animal decomposition of all kinds going on within several miles of the British po sition on either side ; and proportionate anxiety is be ginning to be feet for the arrival in the Crimea Mr. .Ra wlinson, the engineer ofthe sanitary commission, whose preliminary labours are so indispensable to the benefi cial exercise of the skill 'of his medical coadjutors—Drs. Sutherland and Gavin. As regards the commission, it has already done some good, and paved the way for an infinite deal more, at Constantinople. The hospitals on shore at Scutari and Kululee, and the floating one at Seraglio Point, have been inspected and reported on. The authorities have given the commissioners every as sistance, and the works recommended are already com menced. Mr. Wilson, one of the inspectors of nuisances, from Liverpool, is stationed at Scutari, and has about 20 Turks and Greeks employed under him as scavengers. Lord W. Pawlttt was to have given bins an interpreter, but at present it is amusing to hear him directing in English, n,,t one word of which is understood by his squad, who, nevertheless, manage to get on very effectively. The place Ind begun to wear a decidedly improved appear ance. Dead dogs had been buried, rubbish was being swept up and removed, and this was being done daily and continuously, and not by fits and starts, and it would be vi g ilantly persevered in. The corridors within the barrack hospitals were being lime-washed, privies anshed and ventilated, water tanks emptied, cleansed, and roofed over, sewers cleansed and trapped, and better ventilation provided wherever practicable. Miss Nightingale, with whom Mr. Rawlinson had had several interviews, was delighted at the pros pect of a change for the better, for nurses, military officers, and all had suffered nom fever, which ought to have been, . and whose recurrence most probably will be, prevented. .A..fine young man, the fore man of the carpenters, sent out by Sir Morton,Peto, died ()Hever on the 17th. Miss Nightingale attended his bedside at the time of his decease, and was indefati gable in her services, as she is in all such cases where there is the smallest possibility of her offering assistance or consolation. But how limited must her utmost be when it is remembered how multitudinous are the calls upon her, no less than 4,000 sick men at a time need ing the Ministration of 'this heroic woman, and the few ladies whom her example inspires and her counsel guides. The Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity con tinue .to co-operate most cordially with her and her nurses, 20 out of 22 of whims have been laid up with sickness, some having died. Mr. Newland and two of the Liverpool inspectors of nu:sances, who would prove most useful adjuncts to Mr. Rawlinson's staff, were to have arrived in the Crimea on the 17th, to be followed by Dr. Gavin on the 20th, and by Mr. Raw linson on the 24th. Dr. Sutherland, who had been con fined to his bed with low fever for a week previous to the 17th, was to return as soon as he recovered, from Constantinople to Smyrna, where his presen ei cannot fail to be of great value. Towards the prosecution and completion of all the works in the Turkish capital , and neighbourhood, recommended by the commission, Lord Stratford de Redcliffe had promised all needful assist ance. - BANK OF ENGLAND. 1855.

SUNDAY CLOSING MOVEMENT. TYNEMOUTH, Wednesday.—Yesterday evening an ex ceedingly crowded and stormy public meeting was held in the Town-hall, Tynemouth, called by a requisition to the Mayor, to adopt a petition to Parliament in favour of closing public-houses during the whole of Sunday. The MAYOR (J. W. Mayson, Esq.), upon being called upon to preside, said, whilst ho considered it his duty to call this meeting at a time and place most convenient for free discussion, he must tell those present that he' could not agree with the prayer of the memorialists for the total closing of public-houses on the Lord's-day. After several resolutions were spoken to by Mr. Laing, ship builder, Mr. Barker and Mr. Hogg, ship owners, Mr. Charles Brown and Mr. Proctor, members of the Society of Friends, Alderman Pow, iron manu facturer, Mr. Straker, coal owner, and other influential persons, the resolutions, in terms declaring the sanctity of the Sabbath, and the evils arising from opening pub lic-11ouse sand beer-shops on that day, were, with two exceptions, negatived, the discussion being conducted amidst a storm and uproar. A petition was then sub nutted for the total closing of public-houses on Sundays. 'Mr. HARBUTT thereupon moved as an amendment, that from the great difficulty of defining the term bona fide traveller, and the inconvenience that bad arisen through the operation of Wilson Patten's Act of last session, the meeting petition for its repeal. Mr. Har butt read a draft of a petition. After some debate, it was carried with loud cheers, end the meeting concluded. • SeOTTISII CTENREL RAILWAY.--a'rAftiO ret urn for ths week ending Nareh 25, 1854 ..................... £2,256 16 0:1 °Quenon , :ling week Wit yetatti ....... tomlttli ; 1 296 4 2 DEATHS AT SCUTARI, (kg.
