As we have already stated, we cordially concur in the pension to Lady RAGLAN, and should not have objected had it been even more liberal. Any comment that we may make thereon is not di rected against her Ladyship, but is intended rather to show that others should be as fairly dealt with. In her case there is no degrading stipulation against subsequent nuptials —no clause that if she should contract a second marriage she shall forfeit the provision made by a grateful country ! But young widows, whose fortunes have been ab sorbed in purchasing promotion for their dearly loved husbands, are not thus treated; and should they again form matrimonial alliances their names are erased from the pension list. They must thus live on, in compulsory celibacy, a species of "lay nuns," such as might gladden the hearts of the Bishop of RTV,TER or the Puseyite members of the Anglican Church, but not con sidered quite so laudable by those who deem mar riage an honourable institution, from which none should permanently he excluded. If, however, Lord PANMVRE should be allowed to carry out his crotchet, and to convert the army into a species of military priesthood, ther e w ill no t b e much use for controversy respecting the mode of granting widow's pensions—for of coarse the rule rigidly applied to private soldiers must speedily be extended to officers—and red coats will no longer have charms in the eyes of the fair sex, when it is well known that the wearers must necessarily continue bachelors. In like manner we do not object to the grant to RICHARD HENRY Lord RAGLAN, although it may demand greater consideration. The Noble Lord is now in the prime of life. He is engaged in the diplomatic service of his country—and there he may receive lucrative appointments that would enable him to support the rank to which he is entitled in right of his deceased father. But the sons of all other officers lose their claim as soon as they attain the age of 21 years. It is considered that they should not traffic on the fame of their progenitors, but should seek fortune by their own exertions. But everything is different to the fortunate inheritor of a Peerage. He can not be bound by such vulgar rules, but must have a special arrangement on his own account. We can, however, see no justification for the grant to the heir male of the present Lord RAG LAN. The time has gone by when aristocratic paupers could be permanently saddled on the country. We have now no perpetual pen sions, and we think that it is time to abolish the bad practice of grants for two or three generations. If a person holding a lucrative public situation died without making provi sion for his family we should hear enough of his imprudence, Ssc.; but in the case of a noble man who has from the very beginning to the end of his career held lucrative appointments, we are told that it was "the disinterestedness of his char acter that occasioned the failure ;" and the public are, in consequence of what may be termed by persons fond of calling things by their right names, " the lack of prudence of Lord RAGLAN," to make a handsome provision for a child unborn. We do not think this course by any means calculated to make the gulf between the patricians and ple beians less impassable than heretofore. But we need not compare the grants now about to be conferred with that of inferior officers, how ever meritorious. We may ask, What was given to the Conqueror of Scinde ? What recognition was there of the inestimable services of the Hero of Meeanee and Hyderabad ? The widow of Sir CHARLES NAPIER received nothing. His heirs male were unthought of by the liberal Parliament of Great Britain ! And yet we fancy that the most ardent admirer of the late Lord RAGLAN will not venture to compare the military services of that Gallant Commander to those of him second only to the iron Duke —the m an unani mously called from his retirement by the popular voice in what was supposed to be the hour of trial and peril. We do not, as we have stated, object to some portions of the present grant, although we must say that it contrasts strangely with the indifference and neglect exhibited to wards the family of the late General Sir CHARLES JAMES NAPIER, the consolidater and defender o the Anglo-Indian Empire.

The Freedom of Worship Bill is interred iu the grave of a select committee.

The House of Commons has promptly and libe rally responded to the Royal Message respecting the family of the late Lord RAGLAN. A resolu tion was last night unanimously carried, granting a pension of 1,0001. per annum to the widow of the deceased Field-Marshal, and 2,0001. p er annum to his son and successor in the peerage and the next surviving heir male of that son. We do not oomplain of the gran t to the widow, or that to the son of the deceased veteran, but we certainly think to the next heir male of RICHARD H ENItY Lord RAGLAN is carrying the matter a little too far. 'luny alas, too many —hi g hl y meri torious () M eer% when f ace to have perished by disease , or fell face with the foe, but, with the ex ception of a sca nty and penurious pension doled out to their widows' and a paltry gratuity, we cannot call it a provision' for their children, until their so ns s h all attain t daughters be married,eir heir majority, and their ght of t case been th ou h has in aßy representatives. ure Not eizit the purchase money ex ing the commissi ons, which led Pe " e d in obtain to th e i r deaths, has been r e t urned to the m Premature lies to enable them, to maintain theouZfaratio which th ey were en ti t l ed by the rank and. services of the d ecease d h us b ands and fathers. No, i t is only on th ose o f hi g h b lood and arist ocratical e on nexioni that such favours are bestowed. Ti i „ brave subaltern, even the distinguished field officer, will obtain no such recognition of his ser vices ! It is obvious, therefore, that the pension to the heir male of RICHARD HENRY LORD RAGLAN is an o f fering rather to the dignity of the, Peerage than to the distinguished services of the lamented Commander-in-Chief. We are quite aware that there ie ample pre cedent for the grant. But we live in a reforming age, and we ara not contented servilely to follow "'vicious precedents " merely b ecause it is the TEE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1855. on this plainest of distinctions ? Suppose it were a sin for poor people to buy and sell their Sunday necessaries on Sunday morning, the ein is exclusively against GOD, not against man. Sup pose it to be a very wicked thing to preach or pray with more than twenty of your neighbours, it is surely no one against man. It is a purely ecclesiastical sin, and hurts no man as a member of society. Let the religious bodies to which the supposed delinquents belong punish them if they like with all the excommunications and anathemas which the sins of Sunday selling, and Sunday preaching to more than twenty deserve ; but, in the name of all common sense, let civil penalties have nothing to do with the matter. The time is gone by for delivering over heretics to the "secular arm" for the good of their souls. Andreally, the Act which Bishops seek to preserve, and the bill which Lord GROSVENOR tried to pass are but remnants of the old style of conversion and persecution. Impatient Churchmen cannot abide the results of teaching and persuasion; and proud Church men cannot bear their spiritual rule to be invaded by the " unauthorised." Free Trade is, however, becoming the universal principle in every depart ment. It is seen that protection, and bounties, and penalties to defend the favoured, are as adverse to religious as to commercial success. Lord STANLEY is surely rather a statesman with his eyes open to the signs of the times than a mere political prophet, when he affirms that all things are tending to Voluntaryism ; that is, to complete Free Trade in Religion. Nothing will help forward that consummation more rapidly thanfresh legislative coercion in religious matters. A new French Loan of 750,000,000 francs, or 30,000,000/. sterling, is about to be . contracted. That it will be readily obtained is beyond the possibility of doubt. The brave and high-minded people of France, who but a few months since freely tendered their chosen ruler 1, 700, 000, 000 francs, or 68,000,0001. sterling more than he then required, will not now hang back or betray the confidence reposed in their patriotism and libe rality. The EMPEROR has happily shaken off the intolerable incubus of " red-tapist financialism." He requires no middlemen to interfere between him and his people, and extract enormous profits out of the pockets of both parties. He has estab lished a precedent for himself which has met with unexampled success, and, of course, he will not now abandon it, to return into the beaten course. Nor is this the only pecuniary sacrifice which France is required to make, and which she will doubtless freely and willingly offer at the shrines of her military honour and her rights as a great nation, and as the champion of right against might, the chivalric defender of the injured party against a powerful and unscrupulous aggressor. She will also increase the tax on railways ; which, in place of 10 per cent, on their gross receipts, will henceforward be called on to contribute 20 per cent. The additional impost will not, how ever, fall on the Companies. The amount will be added to the fares, so that every traveller will directly contribute to the expenses of the War and the maintenance of the glory of France. All the indirect imposts, with the exception of those on tobacco and salt, are also to be increased 10 per cent., and it is said that there will be some thing very analogous to a property tax. i In these extraordinary efforts the EMPEROR I affords new proofs of the sincerity of his deter- 1 urination to bring the War to a speedy conclusion, by conquering an honourable and enduring peace. His eagle glance clearly perceives the futility of petty efforts, the folly of the " penny - wise - and-pound-foolish po licy." Every shilling now saved on the GLAD STONE principle of " starving the War" and send ing out forces sufficient barely to maintain, but not to improve, our position, would render indis pensable the future expenditure of not one but of many pounds, and by far the most economical course for posterity, putting the interests of the existing generation out of the question, would be at once to raise fifty or even a hundred millions sterling, and thus, by unanswerable evidence, prove that we were bent on making sacrifices worthy of the noble cause in which we are en gaged with our august coadjutor, and certain to produce immediate success. Such a course would strike terror into the heart of the Northern Auto crat, and teach the despot of Vienna the propriety and prudence of remaining faithful to his promises, according to their spirit, as well as to the letter. It would foster and sustain our own resources for greater exertions, should they become essential, and it would restore England to the pinnacle on which she had once established herself. But the finances of France are directed by the master mind of NAPOLEON ; those of England, by the pettifogging intellect of Sir CORNEWALL LEWIS. The former bursts through all red-tapist fetters, while the latter suffers him se lf to be inextricably involved in their meshes, and by making unrea sonable demands at too early a st age of the pro ceedings strives to damp the spirit o f the people and to reduce their power. This is a painful contrast, and it is our own fault if we permit matters to remain in their pre sent state. If Ministers will turn over a now leaf—if they will fairly second the efforts of our Ally, and speak out as boldly respecting the better and more determined conduct of the War, well ! Under such circumstances, and with adequate gua rantees for the iue redemption of their pledges, we should willingly allow byegones to be byegones, and accord a complete amnesty for the past, in the hope of a sounder and more honourable policy for the future. But if not—if Coburgism and Germanism are still to be in the ascendant, more decided measures will be required, and there must be a sweeping change in the representation —a change that will not merely be the infusion of new blood into the House of Commons and the Ministry, but the exclusion of all who have not justified the confidence heretofore reposed in them, and acted in accordance with the dignity and true interests of the country. len Italianl urr tr h e ROYALr g Buicteosfst.olfeeircraan;o:ibridge and the Princess Mary, and her pn.s l t ITALIAN OPERA.—Their Royal Highnesses the Royal Highness the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Meek , 1 imi lite 1 ayt hi r . lannt Highnessesht n o de u ie r r e p d re t hs presence nPurves,c performancewere elraes ti,eavdeyn Suffield, atnt theevening. el dI R , nLo Lord Alhambra arrived at n S b© placed on the Peninsular she is approved of by thneaG pderennmweint: dullness Oriental Company's new steamer and Baron Luhe. tlhampton on Monday.

PRICE el OF GOLD._.The quotation of ' gold at Paris is about a' . par (according to the last tariff), which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for stand ard gold, gives an exchange of 25.17 ; and, the exchange at Paris on Lond on a t s h ort b eing 25 . 05, it follows that gold is about 0 . 48 per cent. dearer in Paris than in Lon don. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4261 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 13'5; ; and, the ex c h ange at Hamburg on London at short being 13'51, it follows that gold is o'o6 per cent, dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1104 per cent. ; and, the par of ex change between England and America being 109 23.40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is nominally 0'67 per cep. t in favour of England; and, after maki ng allow ance for charges of transport and difference of interest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importatio n of gold from the United States. batteries of the isle of S an dh am , an d opened fire. Our I batterie:, replied with success, destreyed a sloop which prec , aied the frigate, making soundings, and lodged a , hell I and several balls in the frigate herself. In this affair, we had a soldier of the 25th crew of marines killed, and four men slightly wounded.' The same journal publishes an extract of - a report from Prince Gorfschakoff to the 16th containing supplementary details of the affair of the 7th before Sebastopol, but they are not of much importance. The report admits that the Russians, after a severe conflict, were obliged to abandon what they call the Karatchatka Lunette, but asserts that 43 guns in it were previously spiked. It gives the num bers of the Russian killed and wounded, which have already been stated, and declares that those of the French were "incomparably greater." Of the English it Inakes no mention. From the Bth to the MN it says that the besiegers kept up a sharp carAenade on the _Russian works, and bom barded, the town ; and that on the 14th they had masse preparations to attack the Malakhoff tower, but did not execute the design. The report adds that in the other parts of the Crimea everything was tranquil. We have received the St. Petersburg journals o the 26th of June. The Invalide Russe publishes the following, under the head of " News from the Baltic" : " On the 6th (18th) June, two of the enemy's vessels and some gun-boats, mounting altogether more than 180 guns, showed themselves at the mouth of the Narva, opposite the village of Gun ' gersbourg. On the following day the flotilla opened fire against the batteries on the Narva side and against the village, but on receiving our fire with drew towards Seskar Island after eight hours' can nonade. Our loss consists in one man killed and another wounded, who has died since. " Lieut.-General of the Engineers, .De Jammer stedt, Acting Commander of Narva, in his report of this unsuccessf u l a tt emp t o f the Allies, says that we owe the success of this artillery engagement to the prudent arrangements of Major-General Daller, of the Artillery, and to the intrepidity of Captain Ragozine, of the Baltic Pilot Corps, who had command of the batteries on the coast, and of Ensigns of Artillery Rousteiko and Bouroundou koff ; he mentions as having (distinguished them selves—Lieut.-Colonel Yertchensky, of the 4th Carabineers, commanding the troops at the mouth of the Nerve. ; Lieutenant of Engineers Sieger- Kork ; and Hans Kork, a Narva merchant, chief of the pilots of that port. The house of the latter was destroyed by the enemy's fire. " On the Bth (20th) June, a t 9.30 i n th e even i ng , the enemy made a desc en t on K o tk a I s l an d, de stroyed the telegraph there, and burnt some houses belonging to the Crown. "0"n the following day the enemy's steamers took soundings in Nystadt Roads. "On the same day, 9th (21st) June, the enemy's gunboats fired on the port of Revel, and then re turned to Nargen Island without having done any damage. 1 ‘ On the 10th (22d), at 3 p.m., a gunboat again approached Revel, and withdrew after exchanging four shots with our fortifications." The I Military Governor-General of St. Peters burg announces that on the 10th (22d June) there was no movement visible in the Allied fleet. The gun-boats practised firing in the morning. On the 11th (23d) the position of the fleet re mained the same. Two steamers entered the north channel, and wore fired upon by the Russian gun boats. The Invalide Russe announcez the destruction o. the corn stores at Marioupol and Taganrog. SWEDEN. It is stated in a letter from Stockholm of the 25th ult. that the camp, which has been esta blished at Ladergardsgardet, province of Stock holm, and which is commanded by the Prince Royal, consists of 11,767 men-1,517 of them being cavalry, and 940 artillery. The King (who has caused a tent to be set up for himself in the camp), the Queen, the Queen Dowager, the Prince Royal, and the Princess Eugenia, were present on the 25th at a series of manoeuvres of the troops, combined with the evolutions of a flotilla which is stationed in the straits of Ladeigardsgardet. The Prince Royal is to proceed to Christiania, towards the middle of the present month, to take the com mand of the camp of Norwegian troops, which is to be established near that city: It is expected that the King will accompany him. MEETING OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN .RAILWAY COMPANY-(TIIIS DAY). A special general meeting of the proprietors of thi railway was held this afternoon, at the Bridge-house Hotel, London-bridge, for the purpose of considering and approving the draft of a bill now before Parliament for making a railway from the Manor-street Terminus of the authorised Western Terminus Railway, connect ing the latter with the West-end of London and Crystal Palace Railway, and to empower the South- Eastern Company to enter into contracts for using the same, and to become shareholders in the un dertaking. Mr. H. Rich, chairman of the board, pre sided. The SEORETABY having read the notice convening the meeting, The CHAIRMAN said the project was one of great im portance, which it was thought ought not to be allowed to pass without consulting the proprietors. Last year the West End Crystal Palace Company obtained ar, act for the construction of that railway from the Crystal Palace to London, passing over Gipsey-hill, throw. h Northwood, Streetham, Balhund, and Clapton. During t past year that company had been in negotiation with the South-Western Railway, for access to tho Waterloo road Station, but being unable to agree on terms, the negotiation had ceased. In the same year the West end Terminus Company obtained an act for the con struction of a line from Rochester-street, Westminster, across the Thames, over a bridge, thence to Manor street, Clapham, pledging themselves that they would in the following session petition Parliament for powers to make a line in continuation to the Crystal Palace. The company having fulfilled that pledge, the proprietors of the South Eastern Company were called together to consider certain powers which were given to them by that bill on certain conditions. The length of this line was six miles and five furlongs, running over some of the other lines, leaving two miles and a half to be constructed, which, in consequence of the expensive nature of the country through which it would pass, the cost of construction would be 78,00011 per mile. This company had nothing to do with the traffic or the cost of construction, but to decide whether their name should appear in the bill, because, if so, by the 25th section they might make arrangements for the working of the line for ten years under the sanction of the Board of Trade, otherwise they would be excluded. By clause 30 they might subscribe to the undertaking ; but at present the directors did not feel disposed to spend the company's money in that way. Mr. HERAPATH—That must be for future considera tion. The CIIAIRMA.N—Yes, and it could only be done with the consent of three-fifths of the proprietors. No doubt this line would materially benefit the South Eastern Company by bringing extra traffic over their line. He moved a resolution in conformity with the notice con vening the meeting which was carried unanimously. Thanks were voted to the Chairman and the meeting separated. CENTRAL CRIMINA L COURT. (THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Baron Parke.) Rebecca Turton, 33, was placed at the bar to take her trial for the wilful murder of her husband, Thomas Turton. It will be recollected that the offence imputed to the prisoner was committed nearly two years ago, but when she was arraigned it appeared that she was insane, and consequently not in a condition to plead, or take her trial, and she was therefore removed to a private lunatic asylum, where it appears that her mind has becomE completely restored, and, under the order of the Secre- tary of State, she has been committed to take her trial for the offence with which she was originally charged. Mr. Ballantine, who appeared for the prisoner, now applied to his lordship to postpone the trial to the next session, on the ground that he was not at present pre pared with the medical testimony, which would be of great importance to the prisoner in her defence. Mr. Bodkin, who was instructed for the prosecution, said he had no objection to offer to the postponement, and the trial was consequently ordered to stand over. Jeremiah, Foley, 24, a ruffianly-looking fellow, was charged with the wilful murder of Hannah Bell. Mr. Ryland prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Sleigh. It appeared that the deceased was what is termed as unfortunate girl, and she lived in a low brothel in a Place called Five Bell Alley, Limehouse. On the evening of the 11th of June, a girl named Mary M'Auley, who lived in the same house, took home with her the prisoner and another man, and the prisoner, who appeared to have been previously ac quainted with the deceased, went into the room, and the other man and M'Aulay proceeded up-stairs. Very shortly afterwards, and, as it appeared, without any provocation, the prisoner assaulted M'Aulay and her companion in a brutal manner, and he then made a most savage attack upon the unfortunate deceased, knocked her down, and kicked her in the face and neck, and inflicted such serious injuries upon her that she died the same night, the death being clearly occasioned by the violence she had received from the prisoner. It was proved in addition to these facts, that the prisoner had previously conducted himself in a most brutal manner, and that he was a complete terror to the whole neighbourhood ; and it also appeared that on the evening of the occurrence the prisoner told one of the witnesses that he was determined to be revenged upon the deceased, and that he had a hammer in his pocket with which he intended to knock out the brains of the deceased, and at the same time Paid that he in tended to warm the hammer first upon the head of the girl M'Aulay. It appeared, however, that he was in a drunken condition at the time he made these threats. The jury found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter, and he was sentenced to fourteen years' transportation. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Cresswell.) William Stafford, 27, dairyman, and Charles Stafford, 21, cab proprietor, were indicted for breaking and enter ing a warehouse belonging to Messrs. Brandon and Lock, and stealing therefrom twenty pockets of hops, valued at 4001. Mr. Clarkson prosecuted, and Mr. Parry and Mr. Cooper defended. It appeared that the prosecutors, who are hop mer chants, living at Bermondsey, had their warehoase.= broken into upon the night of the 26th of Apr:l, and the hops stolen. A van was observed to enter prosecu tor's premises about 10 that night, and shortly after wards leave loaded, and the prisoner William St Ilford was sworn to as the party driving the van. The hops were then moved to some stables at Islington occupied by the prisoner Charles, where a portion of the ,hops were put into five fresh pockets, and but for infor mation given to the police by the horsekeeper of what was going on at the stables, the whole of the property would have been transferred to other pockets and got rid of. The police, however, secured the two prisoners and the whole of the property. The evidence, which was very lengthy, bad not concluded when we went to press. The case created a deal of interest, in conse quence of the respectability of the accused parties, against whom the evidence seems to be most conclusive. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The show of English wheat in to-day's market was very moderate. On the whole, the demand was rather inactive, yet we have no change to notice in the quotations. We were well supplied with foreign wheat. Although the transactions were wholly in retail, Monday's prices were well supported. In floating cargoes very little was doing. We had an improved sale for oats, at full currencies. The arrivals have been limited. Beans, peas, and flour commanded very little attention. ARRIVALS THIS WHIM. Wheat. 580 English Irish ....

The French war steamers Pelican and Tocsin have anchored, and the English war steamer Alban, towing the Jackdaw and Swinger, have passed southwards. FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. The Minister of Marine has received the follow ing report from Vice-Admiral Bruat. It explains very clearly one of the principal causes of the failure of the allied attack on the 18th ult. on the Mala khoff Tover and the Reda; as it appears that the Russians had at the time large masses of troops ready drawn up, and on the point of making a sor tie in order to re cover , if possible, the works which the French and English had taken from them on the '7th. In place, therefore, of the allied troops taking the Russians unawares, they were themselves to a certain extent surprised by the fact of the Russians being drawn in in such force to receive them : MONTEWILLO, une . "Monsieur le Ministre' " —At the moment when l9 the allied s qua d rons returned from Reach, the generals-in chief were preparing to follow up the successes already obtained, and were contemplating a serious attack against the Malakhoff and the battery of the Redan. Although the co-operation of the Navy had not been demanded for this attack, Admiral Lyons and I thought that we might be able to aid in it. Admiral Lyons could employ in his various night attacks many more steam vessels than I, in consequence of my laavimcr been com pelled to send frigates to Constantinople. For want of frigates, I was obliged to devote to this service corvettes, and small steamers ; and I was able, when the English sent four vessels and three gunboats to add to them three vessels of my squadron, each vessel presenting herself singly before the forts at intervals of about half-an-hour. We were very fortunate in these nocturnal expeditions. Since the Mogador, whioh, before our departure for Kertch, bad had two men killed, no French vessel had had a man put Fors de combat. The English had been as favoured as ourselves, until two nights ago, but on that occasion they met with a severe loss. A shell, 'which fell on board th e Terrible, killed two men and wounded elevtn. Other ships were also struck, and the total loss of the English on that occasion was seven men killed and thirty wounded. Last night, only two vessels threw projectiles into the place, and although their fire was returned with vigour, they met with no damage. The vivacity of the fire of the Russian batteries clearly indicates the irritation of the enemy at those incessant attacks. From the great want of artillerymen to which, according to the account of deserters, the place has been reduced, owing to the long siege, it is not a trifling natter for them to be compelled to keep their sea-ward o have the g constantly t i m g u a e n d 7 a d n a d n p d a r rt e i a c d u y la f r o l r y a t h c toisoen gunners, and t wl,ose energy alone explains the long resistance which has been made at Sebastopol. It is positively stated that the rulnent when the Mamelon Vert and the white works were about to be attacked by our troops, the Russians were obliged to send for gunners from the Quarantine forts in order that they might be able to return the fire, directed on the redoubts which were to be attacked. It was principally to prevent their adoptibg the same course, that Admiral Lyons and I, when in formed of the intentions of the Generals-in-Chief, de cided on getting the steamers of the two squadrons under weigh, and keeping them moving about, before the forts within cannon-shot ready to lay hold of any opportunity that might present itself for making a more serious attack against the seaward forts. At three o'clock is the morning the two squadrons were under steam, and at half past three signal rockets, thrown up from one of our 'works, informed us that the allied troops were in march on the Redan and on the Malakhoff Tower. Notwithstanding the vigour with which this double attack was conducted, the courage of the allied troops failed of success ; they could not effect a lodgment in the works which they were to carry ; but although compelled to retire they have not lost an inch of ground, and they fell back in good order on their parallels, which they still occupy. From the very first streak of daylight every eye was directed to wards the Malakhoff Tower. The failure of our attack was not confirmed officially until late in the day, but various circumstances had already made it known. Admiral Lyons and I had agreed befor'ehand that we would not commence any attack until it was evident that such a diversion would be useful. If any re liance may be placed on the accounts given by prison ers, the failure of the attack on the Malakhoff Tower must not be solely attributed to the strength of that work. Our troops found before them considerable masses of the enemy, who were themselves preparing to make an attack on the Marnelon Vert and the white works. If one object, therefore, has not been obtained, that of the enemy has been also defeated, and although repulsed we have not renounced the offensive. No one feels any doubt of our being able soon to take our re venge. Never did troops display mure ardour. After having passed the whole day under steam, the squadrons again came to anchor just out of cannon shot before Sebastopol--I am, &c., " BRUAT." The following private telegraphic despatches have been received to-day : " VIENNA, 2d.—Yesterday evening M. de Bour queney introduced M. Thouvenel, the French ambassador at Constantinople, to Count Buol, and the two French diplomatists remained for a considerabl e time in conference with the President of the Austrian Cabinet."

VIENNA,'June 29.—The Frerndenblatt states front the Crimea that Prince Gortschakoff has sent for 24,000 men more, and that he has reinforced Gene ral Liprandi's corps with another division. The Presse of yesterday contains an interesting article severely criticising the policy of the allies in obstinately continuing the war, and states that their cause can no longer be expected to excite any sym pathy in Austria. Austria was willing to go hand in hand with them, and it was her earnest desire so to do, but now that they have passed the line which she deemed right, and have rejected the propositions which she made, she can no longer consent to give her support to their cause, which seems to savour of ambitious designs.

An extraordinary supplement of the invalidc Busse of the 24th ult. contains the following under the head "News from the Baltic " "General de Berg transmits the following telegraphic despatch from Helsingfors, dated the 22d At 10 o'clock this morning an enemy's frigate approached the A FAMILIAR EPISTLE TO LORD ROBERT GROSVBNOR. And so, Lord Robert, you possess Such Christian faith and tenderness, That you would shed your wormwood drop Upon the poor man's Sunday chop, And in your saintly ardour stop His wicked draught of malt and hop ; Nay, even close the barber's shop, Exclude the " broad sheet" from our sight, And leave us in a cheerless plight. I wonder that the hour of nine, Which you have set up as divine, Has spared the housemaid's pail and mop, Or left the child his lollipop. Perhaps, most wise and perfect Lord, You'll fast upon the Sabbath-day, And, leaving larder shelves unstored, Go quietly to kneel and pray ; Let cook and scullion have no fear Lest duck or grouse be overdone, And never let your coachman hear "John, bring the carriage round at one ;" See that no pine comes, fresh and nice, No mullet, cool from Groves's ice ; Above all, mind your cellar lock Is not touched after nine o'clock, And, if your friends should gather round, Let no champagne nor port be found ; Ask for no sherry at your lunch, And have no burgundy nor punch, But hang your "Bill" upon your walls, And, when some noble countess calls, Point to its text, and sternly say "Go to your church—you know the way." When God and Nature filled Life's measure, The cup held goodly share of pNa‘Aire ; Though now, by hard and worldly plan, Some take it only when they cam. Some sweating frames and dusty lips Can take but short and hasty sips— In truth they've but one day in seven Which Labour has not snatched from Heaven ; And, in that Heaven's holy name, Let them preserve their human claim, And though, perchance, some thoughtless wrong May mark the Sabbath of " the people," 'Tis not your harsh, imperious gong Will call them to the sacred steeple. You see your narrow, bigot-zeal, Which bars and bans the poor man's meal, Has left you sadly in the lurch, And filled Hyde-park before the church. You see your wisdom is not wise, You see Religion's press-gang cries, Aided by all your rigid laws, Fail to enlist in holy cause. Fools and fanatics strive and wish To make all men sit round one dish ; But various diets save the soul, At least, in mercy, so we hope. Leave something to our own control : Give me my much-loved country stroll, And I'll leave you " the Devil" and " Pope." Really, my Lord, we cannot see What the almighty use may be Of this church-going law you'd give, Save to bid fierce Rebellion live, And still more cruelly destroy The poor man's freedom, poor man's joy. You will but bring an angry curse Upon your head—or something worse. One foot too many on the neck May spring the plank of Tumult's wreck, And spirits that have toiled and strivsn To keep our Commerce wlic)ls in play Mast not be goaded, pressed, and driven Like beasts upon a market-day. Remember, man in senate place, That our low " Sunday-trading" crow Forms the stout band that keeps our land Secure and rich for " lords" like you. Go and preside at princely board, And ask your guests to come, we'll let them ; But leave us bread and bear, my lord, Bought how and when we best can get thew. Be wise in time, for English blood, Made bitter, will refuse to be The serflike horde you ask, my lord, So limy() our Sabbath fairly free. ONE OF "THE PEOPLE."
