The House of Commons has nobly discharged its duty. Thanks to the independence and energy of many of its leading members, England will still retain a Free Press. Even Sir GEOE.GE CORNEWALL LEwis, in bringing forward his ill considered and dangerous proposition for a "copyright in news," was obliged to make admis sions which completely destroyed his case ; in deed the manner in which he introduced it showed that he had not the faintest hope of success, and that he threw it out merely as a sop to some one or two of those who had previously supported views that met with very general condemnation throughout the country. It would have been well for his own character had he avoided the subject, or yielded gracefully before his pr( sumptuous ignorance, recklessness, and instability had been so unsparingly exposed by many honour able gentlemen. His lame and impotent attempt at apology materially aggravated the censures to which he has so improvidently exposed himself, and exhibits his original folly in a stronger and clearer light. Because, forsooth, it had been asserted that the measure which lie had brought forward would afford unfair facilities to the class of cheap publications that might spring into existence under its provisions, because they might possibly abuse the privileges which he was about to confer, then every newspaper proprietor in the United Kingdom was to be deprived of the rights of a British subject, and placed at the mercy of the stipendiary and unpaid magistracy. In other words, because he bad fallen into an error in one respect, he was to repair it by an act of the deepest injustice towards a large and influential body, who had invested considerable capital in public jour nals. This was the reasoning of a Cabinet Minister—a man who aspires to the reputation of a statesman—who has been appointed to preside over one of the most important departments of the Government ! We have frequently heard of the "little wisdom " with which nations are governed, but never more forcibly illustrated than in the deplorable exhibition of Sir GEORGE CORNEWALL LEWIS last night. The Right. Hon. Baronet freely admitted that "if the clause should be rigidly or vexatiously enforced by the leading metropolitan newspapers, the rights which have by consent hitherto been exercised by the London evening and weekly newspapers, and by the country newspapers, would be materially abridged." He then added— " The practice has grown up, and has been acqui esced in by the principal newspapers for a long series of years ; and it 'certainly would be a consi derable detriment to the public at large if any attempt should now be made to abridge the rights thus conceded by practice." After this acknow ledgment, Cadit qucestio. The rights conceded for a long series of years, and which it would be a eon,siderable detriment to the public at large to abridge, were to be not merely impaired, but absolutely destroyed, because the , Chancel lor of the Exchequer was desirous of trying his hand at experimental legislation, and was willing, when all the resources of the nation were taxed to the uttermost, to give up 200,0001., or more probably 250,0001., per annum—the interest on some eight millions of money—for the chance. But he justifies it, in the belief that the powers thus conferred would not be exercised in any "harsh or oppressive manner "—that "the clause licni ld be merely brought into use in cases where i ntention might be set up with the deliberate -.4‘entiot, of pirating the news of the principal newspapers and of transferring to its columns intelligence, articles other eommuniZonof original composition, and °tenant° furandl—with the deliber a t e i ntention newspaper depend on making the profits of the that were inde e d his bllie£ll-g l otten gains." If remedy to such cases ? IN ' Wby 'yconnfoert limit extensive the powers which were no t to bebrou in to operatio n ? c,h t Why place a fearful weapon in the bands of p ties who were expected not a t a l l to use it ? ar- The articles which have appeared in some fe w j ournals clearly proved that they had not the slightest no tion of abstaining from exercising any authority that might be conceded. Never before w as such An argument used in a deliberative assembly. Never was a penal clause supported on the ex press ground that it would be suffered to remain a dead letter, a mere brutum fulmen, without eMcacy or vitality. It w as impossible to resist the conclusive and unanswerable arguments of Mr. WHITESIDE on the point. The Honourable and Learned Gentle man clearly and distinctly pointed out not merely the probable, but the almost inevitable, results of the contemplated measure. Indeed if any disinterested and unprejudiced person could have had any doubt on the subject it must be completely set at rest by that brilliant speech. He showed that under the baleful operation of the enactment the Pro vincial Press could easily be suppressed. And it would be so ; aye, and a majority of the metropo litan journals. In fact, in a very short time, a virtual monopoly would be created in favour of one leading journal, which, however ably it might be conducted, could not supply the wants of the country, and which, when every attempt at com petition was suppressed, might not make such ex traordinary efforts to obtain early intelligence as at present. The Honourable and Learned Gentleman was ably seconded by members of all shades and varieties of political opinion, who unsparingly ex posed the absurdity of the attempt. Lord STANLEY particularly, in a few words, placed the matter in a nutshell, and showed that the Financial Minister had attempted that which was utterly and completely impracticable. We regret to find that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman the Member for Bath, in his anxiety to support Ministers through thick and thin, should have indulged in such ridiculous fallacies, which out-heroded the absurdities of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. We may, however, now congratulate the community in general, and newspaper proprietors in particular, at having so effectually, and, we believe, permanently, got rid of the most injurious and reckless proposition which has been submitted to the consideration of Parliament for a long series of years. The Chan cellor of the Exchequer has obtained the opinion of the House of Commons, and it is scarcely pro bable that he will venture to repeat the experi ment by which his character as a public man has been so seriously, so irreparably, damaged. The wanderer has returned to his disconsolate friends ! The missing Minister has returned to the department from which he was so long absent ! The Secretary of State for the Colonies is once more in London—has appeared in his place in the House of Commons—and would, doubtless, have told the story of his adventures, but that, like the " needy knifegrinder," he might have exclaimed— " Story, GOD bless you, I have none to tell." The statement of the ex-Plenipotentiary c3rtainly adds but little to what was pre viously known. It unquestionably proves that there was greater apathy and careless ness displayed by the representatives of the Western Powers than could previously have been deemed possible. The protocols of the Confer ences are, it appears, shortly to be produced, and they may convey information of the substance of the negotiations. But we fear that all the infor mation, voluntarily given by the Government., will be barren and worthless. It is, however, composed of " squeezable " materials, and some thing as to the disposition of Austria may possibly be extracted if Honourable Gentlemen prove themselves to be in earnest in the inquiry. At present we are told that the first meeting was held on the 15th of March, and that the negotiations on the first two points lasted until the 26th of the same month. Then came a viatus valde deflendus. From the 26th of March to the 17th of April nothing of any kind was done. Twenty-two days were wasted waiting for instructions from St. Petersburg to the Russian Plenipotentaries, as to the nature of the proposal which might be brought forward on the part of the AUTOCRAT. On the 17th it was answered that Russia declined to take the initiative, and the Representatives of the Allied Powers had to de mand an adjournment of 48 hours, to consider the form in which they should make their proposal ! The whole of the previous three weeks was passed over without that important point being disposed of, or its being decided how they were to act in the very probable event of Russia refusing to make any proposition. On the 19th the Plenipotentiaries of the Western Powers submitted their propositions, which were supported by the representative of Austria. The Russians, however, in turn re quested 48 hours for consideration, and on the 21st peremptorily rejected the propositions ten dered for their acceptance ! They, however, then brought forward suggestions, which were considered so totally unacceptable that they were not even consi dered in detail. Thus ended the transparent hum bug, for although the Austrian Plenipotentiary sug gested a hope that all the means of reconciling the belligerent parties by peace had been exhausted, the French and English Plenipotentiaries refused to be bamboozled any longer. Lord JOHN Res- SELL departed on his homeward journey, and was speedily followed by M. DROUYN nt L'HuYs, who waited for final instructions from his Imperial .$ I master. :4 Well, the solemn mockery is at an end, but we know nothing more than before of the probable in tention s,or even professions of Austria. There is no information whatsoever respecting the deliberations that were to have taken p lace as to the m ode by which the views of the parties to the Treaty of the 2d De cember should be carried into execution. Lord JOHN RUSSELL has carried his diplomatic reserve to a very extreme point ; but we can scarcely suppose that Parliament will tolerate any pro tracted silence on the important topic. Austria must at length declare herself explicitly and un equivocally. Doubt or hesitation can no longer be tolerated. She must be either for us or against us—must refrain from " blowing hot and cold," and striving to keep well with both sides. It is by no means difficult to indicate the course which her honour and her interests alike point out. She has gone too far to be permitted to back out of the question as Prussia has done, even if she could consent to be placed in such a disreputable position as that power has volunta rily assumed. For her, neutrality is impossible ; and, as we have repeatedly stated, she must at once arrive at a definite conclusion, one way or the other. We still believe that Austria will maintain her old policy to the last—that her duplicity will at length be apparent to even the most purblind of Ministers, The silence of Lord JOHN Rus- SELL was peculiarly ominous. Not a single word was uttered as to her good faith or integrity. All we know is that she joined in the propositions of France and England, which, from their very meagre and diluted character, were probably sug gested by herself. On their rejection she ought to be prepared to act with vigour and energy. She ihas not done so. For we may feel well assn red, that had the slightest hint been dropped ° , f ;such an i n t en ti o n, it would have been 1 "( 11 3T and triumphantly vaunted by an imbecile Q 0 VA Tea Luent.

THE SUN, LONDON, TVESDAY EVENING, MAY 1. 1855 penditure of men and money, Russia becomes a suitor for peace, much more onerous terms will be demanded and enforced than those which were tendered by the Allies before her hardness of heart and obduracy of purpose placed her completely beyond the pale of indulgence. It is not in the Euxine only that she will be at tacked. It is only her means of defence that must be crippled. The Baltic provinces must be restored to their rightful owners, and regenerated Poland interposed as a barrier between the un scrupulous aggressor and other nations with which she has been brought into dangerous proximity. We have already suffered enough for the mistaken leniency which spared Odessa. Henceforward we must not attempt to wage a " rose-water war," or heap courtesies on those who do not appreciate our kindness or forbearance. If Lord PALMERSTON manifested one-half the concern for the feelings of the public he has dis played for the vindication of the aristocracy we would not at this moment be unable to give any positive intelligence as to the real state of the siege of Sebastopol. Here is an event in the development of which the entire community is more or less directly in terested—an event respecting which the most painful rumours are everywhere current, and the deepest anxiety is generally entertained, and yet no trustworthy information about it is forthcoming, though, by means of the electric telegraph, de spatches are transmitted from Balaklava to the War-office in twenty-four hours ! Really such a lordly indifference to public opinion, such disre gard for the feelings of the middle and lower classes more especially, is unpardonable. Were anything to be gained by concealment the reticence of which we complain might be ex cusable ; but whatever be the nature of the in telligence received we can discover no valid reason for withholding it. If the bombardment has en tirely failed, if the guns are used up, and nothing has been effected, what harm can be done by saying so ? If, on the other hand, the prospects of the siege are in any degree encouraging, why maintain a silence that conveys a different impres sion ? The people of England are not children to start at their own shadow, or fall prostrate and enervated before the breath of misfortune. If the news be bad, the sooner it is communicated the sooner the public will rally from the shock, and rise responsive to the magnitude of the emer gency. _ _ . Not that we would have it inferred that we give credit to the rumour adverted to. On the contrary, from Lord RAGLAN'S inquiry respecting the sailing of the Sardinian contingent, and the contents of the despatch from St. Petersburg, published in another part of our impression, we are inclined to hope all is going on more or less satisfactorily. What we have off-handedly at tempted to show is, that no colourable excuse exists for a concealment we cannot but attribute to a culpable indifference deserving of severe re probation. LIEUTENANT-COLONEL CROMBIE. The following letter has been addressed to the editor of the Times:— Sir,—ln the report of my speech in the House of Com mons o❑ Friday there is a misprint. I did not state that Lieutenant-Colonel Crombie had told me the circum stances of his case, but, on the contrary, that he had not told me. You will much oblige me by inserting this explana. ion.—Your obedient servant, A. H. LAYARD. 9, Little Ryder-street, April 30. DRURY-LANE THEATRE. TEe last three representations of Les Cosaques by the alented artistes from the Theatre de la Gaite will posi• lively take place this week—viz., to-night, Thursday, and Saturday. It is much to be regretted that the conge granted was for so limited a period ; but we can well imagine the void created in the Parisian capital by the absence of these clever artistes. To those who have not yet visited Drury-lane Theatre an opportunity still exists to witness one of the most extraordinary performances ever placed before the public. SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE. Last evening, Mr. G. A. Webster, of the Edinburgh an Dublin theatres, commenced a summer campaign at this popular theatre. The pieces selected for the occa si,,n were Buckstone's beautiful drama of The Green. Bushe4 and Who's your Friend ? or 7he Queensberry Fete. The principle un'ts in each piece were sustained by Madame Celeste and Mr. B. Webster, of the Adelphi, who have accepted an engagement for a limited number of nights. The reception of both these artistes by the Islingtenians was enthusiastic in the highest degree. The house was crowded in every part long before the rising of the curtain. Mr. G. A. Webster has our best wishes for his St ucces. COURT CIRCULAR. Lord John Russell and the Earl of Clarendon had audiences of the Queen yesterday at Buckingham Palace. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert took a drive in the afternoon in an open landau and four, accompanied by the Princess of Hohenlohe Lan genburg and the Princess Adelaide of Hohenlohe. Lord C. Fitzroy and Colonel Seymour attended on horseback. His Royal Highness Prince Albert rode on horse ack in the forenuon, attended by his Equerry in Waiting. Fier Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent visited the Princess of Hohenlohe Langenburg yesterday at Buck ingham Palace. Her Majesty give a dinner party in the evening ; the company included her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, her Serene Highness the Princess of Hohenlohe Langenburg, their Serene Highnesses the Princess Adelaid e and Prince Victor of Hohenlobe, the Earl and Countess of Clanwil liam, Lady A. M. Dawson, Baroness De Speth, Lord G. Lennox, Lord and Lady Elcho, Lord and Lady Lyttl ton, the Right Hon., Sir E. Blakeney, Lieut.-General Sii J. Burgoyne, Sir Charles Lyell, and the Gentleman in Waiting to the Duke of Cambridge. Lord John Russell arrived at his residence in Ches ham-place, at half-past 2 o'clock a.m., yesterday, from Dover. His lordship paid a visit to Viscount Palmer ston, at his residence, in Piccadilly, in the forenoon, and afterwards, with the noble Viscount, attended the Cabinet Council, held at half-past 1 o'clock p.m., at the Foreign-office, Downing-street. Despatches were received at the Colonial-office, yes terday, from the Governor of Canada and from - the Go vernors of the Cape of Good Hope and Natal. The issue of orders to view the apartments at Windsor Castle lately occupied by the Emperor and Empress of the French has commenced, but the number of those who ba,'e hitherto availed themselves of the privilege is inconsiderable. On Friday about 70 persons were ad mitted, on Saturday not more than 6, and yesterday about 12. A written application, addressed to the Lord Chamberlain's office, St. James's Palace, London, would procure an immediate order for the applicant and friends, not exceeding six. SIR HENRY BISHOP.—The announcement, a short time ago, that this highly-distinguished English com• poser laboured under pecuniary embarrassment as well as acute bodily infirmity, was received with so much commiseration by the musical public that we have no doubt the proposition now made (and being carried into effect), to raise by subscription such an amount as will enable his friends to relieve him from his difficulties and insure for him a moderate degree of comfort during his remaining days, will be cordially responded to and effec tually promoted. Sir George Smart, Mr. Mitchell (of Bond-street), Dr. Daniel, and Mr. Addison have formed themselves into a committee with this object, and to ady of these gentlemen, as also to the Regent-street branch of the Union Bank of London, subscriptions may be paid. GRAY'S INN, April 30. —At a pension of the Honour. able Society of Gray's Inn, holden this day, Charles Ro bertson Griffith s , E sq . , and John Rodham Carr, Esq., LL.D., were called to the degree of barrister-at-law.

LATEST NEWS. THE CRIMEA. MARSEILLES, TIIFSDAY, MAY 1. The Caire, which left Constantinople on the 19th of April, has arrived. Despatches leave at 9 a.m. General Forey has arrived here. BALAKLAVA, APRIL 17' . General Bigot was buried yesterday. On Sunday, 15th, Magazine No 1. of the right attack exploded ; one man was killed and five wounded. On Saturday, 14th, the French fired three mines under the Flagstaff Battery with partial su ccess. The Russian 3, fearing an assault, opened a furious cannonade along the whole line. The French lost six officers and 300 men dur- ing a sortie on Friday night (13ai). The Russian loss was enormous. Every night a man-of-war fires broadsides against the town. The Russians receive provisions daily ; they are constructing immense works to . the north and Our sailors have lost 116 in killed and wounded. Two Polish deserters announce that there are 100,000 Russians in the vicinity of Sebastopol, and 60,000 have arrived from Simpheropol. Two Russian ships were burnt yesterday (16th). The fire is slacker on both sides to-day." PARIS, TUESDAY. The Moniteur publishes the following : Telegraphic despatches from the Crimea, dated April 28, announce that the besiegers have mo mentarily suspended their fire, so as not to exhaust their ammunition, awaiting reinforcements, which were hourly expected. BERLIN, MONDAY. A despatch from St. Petersburg, dated the 29th, says Prince Gortschakoff, under date of the 24th April, writes from Sebastopol : The fire of the enemy continues, but is slacker. The damage done to the fortifications and the Losses of our garrison are also less in proportion. RUSSIA. We have received the St. Petersburg journals of the 22d April. An Imperial ukase declares the government of St. Petersburg to be under martial law, under the command of General Rudiger. Another ukase places the governments of Courland and Livonia under martial law under General Siewers ; and Esthonia also, under General Grabbe. The Imvalide Russe of the 22d April publishes the following from the Crimea : . "We have already published a telegraphic despatch, announcing the bombardment of Sebastopol on the 9th and 10th. Under date of the 30th March (11th April,) Prince Gortschakoff has sent the following details : " From the 25th to 28th March (6th to 9th April) the operations of the enemy continued the same, that is to say, by their approaches they advanced slowly to wards the Kamtschatka lunette, and on other points they constrixted batteries in the approaches already existing ; as regards their fire, it was very weak, and directed almost exclusively against our works of coun ter-approach of Volhynia, Seliughinsk, and Kaints chatka. "On the 26th of March (7th of April) they attempted by mining galleries to approach nearer bastion No. 4, but their subterraneous works were not of great import ance. To oppose them we opened new mines on our side. " On the 27th March (Bth of April), during the night, we confined our labours to repairing the damage done to our works, to deepening our trenches, and to increas ing the thickness of the epauiements and the height of the traverses. " The enemy worked in their trenches beyond the cemetery and opened embrasures in the new grand epaulement. When the mist cleared it was observed that the enemy had prolonged their trenches against the salient angle of Bastion No. 3. " During the day the fire of musketry was not dis continued along the whole line of the fortifications. " On the 28th of March (9th of April), at half-past five in the mo►ning, the enemy opened a tremendous can nonade from all their batteries (250 guns in all), which continued till evening. " Ou this occaßion 20,000 projectiles were thrown into the town. During the night the enemy carried on a brisk bombardment. " On the same day the enemy's fleet got up its steam, but did not weigh anchor owing to tho heavy sea run-' nine. " On the 29th March (10th April), in the morning, the enemy renewed the cannonade. Their object was evidently to dismount the guns of our fortifications. " On our side we replied with success ; we did great damage to many of their battei ies, and in less than four hours we silenced 50 of their guns. To judge from this circumstance their loss must have been considerable. "On the same morning of the 29th (10th) the enemy's vessels again got up their steam at an early hour, stood out to sea, and then drew up in front of the bay beyond range, but did not open fire ; in the evening the large ships formed in two lines, the frigates and steamers formed a third line, and the whole fleet cast anchor. In these two days we had 4 officers and 141 men killed, and 15 officers and 673 men wounded. " Among the killed are the brave and worthy Com mandant of Battery, the Captain of corvette Schernia kine, and the midshipman Povalo-Schveikosky, who gave great promise. " Among the seriously wounded are three distin guished naval officers, Lieutenant Lyoff (since dead), Lieutenant Zavalischine, and Lieutenant Krasso sky ; also Lieutenant-Colonel of Artillery Rosenthal, and Major Volotskoi of the infantry regiment Brziesc-Li tevski, both of them very brave and intelligent officers. " the days of the 28th and 29th of March (9th and 10th April) the enemy dismountei some of our guns and gun-carriages, but they were immediately replaced by others ; all the damage (moreover, small) done to our epaulementl and batteries was also successfully repaired. " In the night, between the 29th and 30th March (10th and 11th April) the enemy again bombarded the town with great vivacity, but without doing us much harm. On the 30th March (11th April) six chosen companies of French made a bold attack upon our positions (loge ments) in advance of Bastion No. 5. They got tempo rary possession of them, and immediately set to woritto con vert them into trenches, but we drove them out with grape. Two hand-to-hand combats followed with sword and bayonet, after which our sharp,,hooters reoccupied the positions. " In the morning of the same day the enemy opened a most violent cannonade from all their pieces, which slackened after a short time, but was renewed with great vivacity towards evening. " Our garrison behaves in the most heroic manner. Our loss on the 30th March (10th April) has not yet been exactly ascertained." The Journal de St. Petersbourg of the 22d April says— " Yesterday (Saturday) at half-past 10 a.m. the cannon of the fortress announced to the inhabitants of the capital that the navigation of the Neavo was open." THE PENINSULAR MAIL SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Iberia, Captain E. Christian, with the Penin sular mail, arrived this evening, at five o'clock. The freight of the Iheria consists of 27 packages of specie (value, 8,0001.), 35 boxes of eggs, 380 half-chests of oranges, 35 boxes of onions, 225 boxes of dates, and 231 boxes of potatoes. The latest dates are : —Gibraltar. April 21 ; Cadiz, 22 ; Lisbon, 24 ; Oporto, 25 ; and Vigo, 26. The cumber of pas sengers brought by the Iberia amounts to 81, among whom are Madame Alboni and suite, Count and Countess Papoli, Lieut.- Colonel Rose, RE., &C. The Iberia likewise brings home eight of the crew of the Natal, which was stranded on the shores of Conil, which vessel has become a com plete wreck. The Iberia spoke the following vessels :—Her Majesty's ship Medusa, and the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Alma, steaming 12 knots against a head wind. We learn from Gibraltar that the two Spaniards who waylaid and shot Mr. Fenton,. an English ( Tell - tleman fr om Yorkshire, ha ve b een apprehendedb and delivered over to the bands of justice. It will be recollected that the deceased was pursuing his way to a farm at some distance from Algesiras, when he was waylaid by these two monsters. The body was buried in the Protestant Cemetery. COURT OP QUEEN'S BENOFI, APRIL 30.—THE QUEEN V. COYLE.—In this case, which was a rule for a new trial, on the ground that additional evidence had come to light since the defendant's conviction, Lord Campbell, in de livering judgment, said he was satisfied with the, verdict on the trial, according to the evidence then adduced ; but, as new evidence could now be brought forward, the court considered the defendant should have the benefit of an investigation before another jury. The rule for a new trial would, therefore, be made out. Rule accord ingly. IIARE MAC EET (YESTERDAY.) .RAILWAY. C!loging Prices yesterday R.tsine•.s 4on , 1 St. yesterday.
