The half-yearly meetink of this company was hell y e s. ,erday at the offices, Moorpte-street ; Mr. W. P. Richards in the chair. The report was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, explained that the directors ,bad availed themselves of the opportunity of raising 15,0001., in accordance with the arrangement with Messrs. Brugmaun for raising the requisite capital to complete the lines conceded to the company. With respect to the agreement made with Messrs. de Pariente and Co., as provisional conces sionnaires of a line to be made from Fumes to Roulers, by which the Deynze line was to be transferred to them, it was not carried out in consequence of Messrs. de Pa rtente being unable to comply with the terms on which the Minister of Public Works was prepared to grant the concession to those gentlemen. The time had been ex tended for the deposit of the caution-mbney, but the latter not being forthcoming the Minister'gave then* formal notice to the effect that they were not the conces sionnaires of the Fumes and Roulers Railway. The direc tors of the West Flanders Company also gave Messrs. De Pariente a formal notice to the effect that the company were completely clear of the arrangement made with them. Messrs. De Pariente then gave notice that they would take proceedings against the concpany for a breach of contract. They brought t es, he a ma it was dismis s ed before tfor e Tri bunal of Commerce at B ru g nd want of competency on the part of that court to deal with it, since which an effort had been made to bring the case back to the same court for adjudication. Whe ther they would hear anv more about it he did not know. The directors had purchased 4,5001. of the preference capital for the company, and with the interest accruing on that amount they had purchased 120 old shares, with tip view of forming the nucleus of a sinking fund, to relieve the company of some of its unproductive capital.

Mr. HEaAPATH hoped they would be able to form the nucleus out of surplus capital, and by that means to gradually absorb the unprofitable capital. He thought would be desirable to cannel the shares when pur chased, and thus to increase the dividend on the other shares. ,Resolutions were passed unanimously, adopting the reports and accounts—approving the course purstu;d by the directors with reg,ard to the purchase of the shares of the company, and requesting them to improve the fund so commenced ; declaring the dividend of 2s. 6d. per share ; and confirming the election of Captain Greig to a seat at the board. _ • The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to be chairman and directors. /Z~u ,g-e) ~C d rP g icE SD. f ,FN 4 _ -- _C- ..-- . - _..... ~ .. ~ , , , , 4 4,;,:, .-7. 1, ..; 4_, ~ , - 7.:„...: T. . • ~-, -,...„ .„. - ' .. , , / , _. ,;..-....,-,-.:. . , '' . 7 -- ,‘:..., - ,_,1,- . ... - ~...,,,-4 : k . „,.,.....1 ; - : - :-...

THE OVERLAND MAIL. in all the journals of the presidency.—The Friend of India, in refetynce to a late scandalous libel case in the Supreme Court at Calcutta, where a chaplain of the Hon., Company's service sued a young lady for having said that he had attempted an act of indecent violence upon her, and where the judgment was for the defendant on the score that she ha& established the fact, hopes that the Court of Directors will 'dismiss him from their service. We should have hoped that his reverence might have been at the door of the Supreme Court by the proper prosecuting authority, and been brought up criminally for an assault with attempt to violate, which could, of course, have been proved by the same evidence on which his intended victim was acquitted. Really these Church scandals amongst us in India are beginning to grow something per fectly outrageous. It is not yet six months since we had one of the most shameless cases of adultery on the part of a clergyman's wife in the. Bombay presidency, while, if we mist a k e no t, within the year two or three have come to li g ht in the Bengal diocese. We are not aware of the. doings in Ma dras. With family scandals such as these every now and then coming to light, and always such a frightful difficulty in the way of reaching the delin quents, a question is apt to be ‘raised whether it would not be greatly for the benefit of Christianity , that we abolish the establishment in India alto gether, giving each European regiment a regimental chaplain, who might do service atthe station where his corps was quartered, leaving the rest of the community to provide spiritual instruction at their own charge for themselves. In churches maintained on the voluntary principle it is always found easy to turn a transgressor about his business, and when he ceases to please his people, his churchsoon becomes too cold to hold him, and his emoluments too small to support him. Our reverend friends may dep-nd upon it that this isthe direction in which the current of public opinion is at present letting, and that it rests with themselves whether the drift shall be rapid or slow ; the Bishop of Bombay has already knocked 20 years off the existence of the Church in. India. The Supreme Government has ordered the construction of a line of telegraph from Mirza pore via Jubbulpore, Seeonee, Nagpore, and Hy derabad, to Bellary, connecting the capitals of the presidencies and the Punjaub. The Prussian tra vellers Schlagentweit, who arrived in Bombay in September, and left in December, have reached Calcutta, via Madras. The Court of Directors allowed the most distinguished of the brothers 700 rupees a month and his travelling charges, this not being an excessive sum. The man who runs the risk of an Indian climate is entitled to set aside what is assigned him in the.name of salary as something to take home with him. Mr. Adolphe Schlagentweit, however, conceived that he might take two bro thers along with him to assist him, without ex tra charge save that of travelling. On reaching Calcutta, he found he had misreckoned his esti mates, and applied for and obtained from the Deputy-Governor of Bengal salary and travelling charges for * one of his brothers. The travelling charges of the party, we should presume, could scarcely bo covered .by less than 1,500 rupees a month, the salaries amounting to as much, and as this will probably extend over 18 months at least, the total will amount to close on 6,0001., an expense, we should suppose, considerably larger than was ex pected to he incurred when the expedition was ar ranged. . The cost of publication of the book em bodying the results of these investigations, abound ing, and it must needs abound, with drawings, maps, diagrams, &c., will in all likelihood cost at least 2,0001. more, and if the work could not have been as well performed by officers on the spot—as we are confident it could—it is simply because of the studious neglect with which men of science have always been treated by the Court, and, unless under such distinguished men as Lord ,William Bentinck and' Lord Dalhousie, by the Govern ments of India, general and local. The Governor- General is on the Neilgherries, and will be soon joined there by the Governor and Commander-in- Chief of Madras. Lord Dalhousie's health is such as to compel him to live perfectly secluded. He lately removed from Ootauamund to Kotagherry, at which place he will permanently establish his re sidence in the event of the air there agreeing better with him than that of the higher station, which it is likely to do if lie requires a mild climate. Lord Elphinstone, in company with his friend, the Hon. W. Elliott, Esq., member of council, Ma.clras, is on a short visit to Mahabulesh war. The Hon.A. Malet, Esq., arrived from Calcutta at Bombay on the 6th inst., and was sworn in the same day as four t h mem ber of compd. By this steamer Col. Rawlinson, po litical agent at Bagdad, goes home on 15 mouths' sick leave. A special meeting of the Bombay branch of the Royal Asiatic Society was held immediately after his arrival at the presidency, to receive him and to give him an opportunity of presenting the so ciety with a brief view of his latest researches in Mesopotamia. It was the most numerously at tended of any which has been held since the forma tion of the society, half a century ago, and of a most importakut character. They had special re ference to the conformity of the historical tablets and cylinders of Chaldea,, Assyria, and Babylonia with the Hebrew Scriptures from the age of Abraham to the destruction of Babylon. Colonel Rawlinson was listened to with breathless attention. On the motion of Dr. Wilson, honorary president of the society, its best thanks were conveyed to him by the patron of the society, Lord Elphinstone, for Ins most interesting communications, and the secretary was directecrto prepare a minute expressiVe of the regard which the society `cherishes for its distin guished member, whom it congratulated on the un paralleled success of his learned investigations. — Trade is still depressed, and in a very unsatisfactory state. Freights are steady, and tonnage plentiful. Exchange is favourable for remitters, but money is tight and scarce in all quarters. by shipments to Amoy; but shippers are acting cau tiously, and little is going forward to that quarter. The new crop comes down very slow as yet, which assists to uphold prices. SHEEP'S WoOL.—The market continues very firm, and some descriptions are higher in value. HEMP.—The depression noticed in our last is still ap parent ; and, with no inquiry, prices have further re ceded. OIL-SEEDS.—The news by the mail has had little effect upon the market, prices being well maintained for all descriptions 'except linseed, whieh is very dull, and pro curable at Rs.. per cwt. Teel is held firmly at Rs. 23 per candy, there being an active demand by both Euro pean and French houses. PEPpEB.—The market is very dull, and both Bhntcol and Tellicherry,have declined in value. OPIIIM.—The steamer, on the 4th instant, took 1,870 'chests ; and notwithstanding the unfavourable news by the inward one, holders of drug are asking advanced prices —viz., Mundleiser, Rs. 870 ; Indore, Rs. 855 per chest ; but the inquiry is very languid and stocks large. TozotAGE.—Rates of freight are as at our last, the arrivals from the colonies of some large vessels having Checkdd any improvement; and to Great Britain, 3/. 10s. to Si. 12s. 6d. per ton of 50 cubic feet is the current rate. Seeds 31. 155., and oil Si. per tun of 210 imperial gal lons. -- We are now enabled to lay before our readers extracts from the Indian papers, whiCh reached Suez on the Ist of May by , the Gan g es. They were despatched from Alexandria on the sth by the Melita, screw-steamer, and from Malta on the 10th by the Thamise to arseilles. • Up to the sth the Oriental had not been tele graphed at Alexandria as having arrived at Suez with the Calcutta mail, for which the Vectis, to carry on the overland portion to Marseilles, and the Euxine, to carry •on the heavy portion to Southampton, were waiting at Alexandria. (From the Overland Bombay Times, April 16.) SIIMMARY.—We have had some sharp fighting around Peshawar. . A field force under Colonel Craigie, consisting of the 4th, 9th, and 20th Bengal Native Infantry, a mountain train of two 3-pounder guns, and two 12-pounder howitzers, arid a troop of cavalry, proceeded out to Musha Khail, where they arrived on the 7th of March. On the 19th, orders were issued for the troops to march at midnight, leaving the camp standing. About nine miles from camp a halt was made till daybreak, and at sunrise the force reached the first ridge of the hills, where a view was obtained of the valley in which operations were about to be commenced. A detachment of the 4th Regiment descended on the ridge to the left, and burned a village on their way. At the same time the 9th Regiment descended the ridge on the right, closely followed by the mountain train and - 20th Native Infantry, the cavalry remaining on the heights. The people now began t retire rapidly, carrying with them their families and their cattle, and the advance *ere soon afterwards engaged with a small party of hill-men, the conflict being of short dura tion. The 4th Regiment having burned a village, rejoined the main body, which now p enetrated about a mile and a half into the hills, and here the enemy were found assembled in force to oppose them. They were posted behind rocks and earthen fences —an admira,ble position for giving effect to their matchlock fire. The mountain train now opened in support of the infantry, but after the discharge of a few rounds from the guns, the whole force was ordered to retire, the train covering the retreat, and the troops as they withdrew set fire to the stacks of wood preparkl for the Peshawur market and such cottages as fell in their way. They reached camp at half-past four next morning, after a long and fatiguing march of 30 miles. Our loss amounted to 9 sepoys killed and 27 wounded ; 19 of the hill-men are said to have been killed. On the 24th of March the Momunds came down in force from the hills in front of Matta to attack the gar rison of Abuzai, consisting of two troops of the 10th Light Cavalry and three companies of the 62d Na-' tive Infantry ; these at once turned out to meet them, and an action commenced which lasted for several hours ; the enemy were beaten and com pelled to retire. The death of a thief who was killed at Peshawur in Colonel Brown's compound is now to be made the subject of legal investiga tionp a court-martial having been convened for the trial of Colonel Brown, by order of the Commander in-Chief. On the 30th March a treaty of friend-. ship with the Caboul government was signed by Sirdar Goolam Haidur Khan, on the part of Ameer Dost Mahomed Khan, and by Mr. John Lawrence, chief commissioner of the Punjaub, on the part of Lord Dalhousie, in full durbar at Peshawur, under a Royal salute of 21 guns. The treaty was read out before the assembled British officers and Aff ghan chiefs in both languages • and we are thus enabled to state that it contains three articles ; by' the first of which friendship and peace are established between the British government and Dost Mahomed Khan and his heirs ; by the secoild, the East India Company engages to respect the territories now possessed by the Ameer, and not to interfere therein ; and by the third, the Ameer and his heirs undertake not only to do the same towards us, but to be the friends of our friends, and the enemies of our enemies. This result will be received by the public in India and at home with satisfaction—a wise and dignified for giveness of the past, with its mutual errors, and a timely return to the line of true policy in Central Asia from which we went so widely astray in 1838. Opportunities come as seldom to nations as to in , dividuals. We wastedone, and havebeen fortunate to find another, and to use it rightly. Sirdar Haidur Khan was to return towards Caboul on the 31st of March, and as be has been treated with distin guished courtesy and honour, both by the military and civil a uthorities ' and received very kingly pre sents, we doubt not that he has gone back with a feeling of increased security to his inheritance, though he has not (as some feared) added to it one acre yf British territory. There seem to have been considerable disturbances of late on our Burmese frontier ; these are things to be looked for for a long time to come, nor will indeed the country be wholly quieted until it is all our own. The Bank of Bengal has lowered its rates of interest on loans and discounts by 1 per cent. A native monster meeting was held at Madras on the 2d instant, when it was resolved to forward a petition to Par liament, the objects of which are to refute the denunciation of Sir Charles Wood, that the two petitions forwarded from the Madras Association in December, 1852, were a tissue of misrepresenta tions and exaggeration ; to point out the deficien cies of the India Bill as respects the mode under which admission to the civil service is in future to be regulated, so far as the natives are concerned, in requiring candidates to pass their examination in England, subjecting those of the compaunity to the loss of caste as the consequence of their voyage to and temporary residence in Europe—to repeat the request for a public commission of inquiry into the actual condition of the Madras Presidency, as the only means by which the Parliament and people of England can be made fully acquainted with the state of the people and the extent of the grievances under which they have heen so long suffering—to reiterate the prayer contained in the two preceding petitions for the introduction of constitutional go vernment, based on the example of the Crown colony of Ceylon ; to request that candidates for govern ment employ may be examined and passed in, this country through the media of the universities which have been promised at each of the three presi dencies ; to solicit that India may be placed directly under the government of the Crown ; and seventh, and last, that the native temples may be managed by definite regulations, and rendered subject to efficient control. Early on the same day a meeting was held in the College Hall at Madras, on the oc casion of the opening of Dr. Hunter's enlarged " School of Industrial Art." The meeting had been called with a view to ascertain the interest with which the public regarded such an undertaking, and to show the progress that had been made during the last five years. The school has not only paid its expenses, but 14,000r5. have been accumulated during the time it has been in existence. Models, &c., to the value of 4000r5., have been sent out by the Court of Directors, and a sum of 6000r5., also given by that body, has been sent to Genoa, Florence, Paris, and Scotland, to procure models, dtc., for the use of the pupils. There were 70 pupils in the School of Arts and 30 in the Industrial ; but, owin g to the distance, a falling-off Nfas anticipated in these numbers. The native pupils lad, however, hired conveyances to bring them to the scene of their studies, and the society intended to have some light conveyances, made by the pupils, for the same pur pose, which would also be used for the Saturday excursions, on which occasions geology, photo graphy, drawing,, botany, &c., would be learned in conjunction with the students of the Medical Col lege. Dr. Hunter suggested the propriety of esta blishing a Society of Arts among the gentlemen of Madras to act in communication with the London Society ; be had corresponded with that body for the last two years, and they had strongly urged the matter, promising iu the way of assistance to interchange models and so forth, and to afford all the information in their power to advance and per fect the working of theproject.—We have to cor rect an error into which we fell in our last overland summary, in reference to the Bishop of Bombay having drawn his thousand rupees per month as Visitation allowances. A modification made under the authority of Government, states that all the visitation allowances he has claimed during his four years term of service is 425 rs.. Though, in point of fact, the error was very immaterial, be having just as little claim to his bishop's salaiy while he did no episcopal duty as to his visitation charges, while he never visited, it is very important to have an official intimation which affords a mea sure of the actual work he has performed. He was entitled to have claimed some 24,000 rs. to cover his travelling charges, assuming that half the year was spent in visitation, in place of which all he has ever drawn is 425 rs., or less than half a month's allowances, indicating the perfect correct ness of all the other parts of our statement. We .heg to make a present of this piece of information to the Chairman of the Board of Control, so that h e may have no excuse, if questioned, for stating that no official information had reached him on the subject. That now transmitted is direct from the Bombay Government, and has appeared as such EXCHANGE.—Since our last we have little or no alter ation to report.

YERMOLOFF AND THE GRAND DUKE CONSTANTINE. war. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. (Prom the Times of this day.) The Russian Government has formally' aenounced to the German Powers, by M. de Glinka, the Russian En voy to the Frankfort. Diet, that although the Confer ences of Vienna have led to no definitive result for the conclusion of peace, Russia is prepared to adhere to the arrangement provisionally concluded on the first two points of the negotiation, provided the States of Ger many persist in their resolution to remain neutral in the contest. This declaration was hardly needed to prove that the real object of Russia in consenting to treat for peace at Vienna, and in professing to accept' the Four Points, was to secure the neutrality of Germany and to avert the danger of a European coalition against herself. For the same reason she showed considerable alacrity in making the necessary concessions on the subject of the Principalities and on the navigation of the Danube, the two points most essential to Germany ; for it is evi dent that whenever conditions are supported by the united strength of Europe Russia is not able to resist them. Eighteen months ago, and, down' to the period of the declaration of war, it would have been thought no inconsiderable triumph over the policy, and preten sions of the Cabinet of St. Petersburg to compel her not only to evacuate the Principalities, but to relinquish the protectorate she had acquired by treaty over those provinces, and to place the' navigation of the Lower Danube under the superintendence of a commission of the great Powers. These are instalments of the terms which it is reasonable to ask, and which we hope even tually to 'enforce. Russia has for the present receded altogether from the menacing attitude she had assumed just two years ago, and she has even assented to some of the conditions which wi I probably form part of the definitive treaty of peace ; but all her concessions have been wrung from her by force and by fear, and have therefore been made too late. She refused to recognise the intervention of Europe . in her quarrel with Turkey until that intervention assumed the character of hos tilities. She rejected the Four Points contained in the Notes of the Bth of August until they had become mixed up with military considerations which increased the difficulty of a solution ; and she still continues the petty policy of attempting to buy off her creditors one by one, instead of entering upon a general liquidation of their claims. Our only course in dealing with such a Power is to take all we can get, and to persevere in the course which has wrung so much from her until we se cure the remainder. Sooner or later the mere hostile occupation of the Black Sea and the Baltic will compel Russia to submit, and, though the process may be costly and tedious, the progress already made in obtaining our just demands is such as to inspire us with full confidence that we mult ultimately accomplish all we require. Al though, therefore, it may suit the present temper of Germany to declare herself satisfied with these half-con cessions, and to turn back from the plough to which she has set so faint a heart and so feeble a hand, to us this partial success is an encouragement to persevere in our efforts, and never to desist from them on terms deroga tory to our own position and influence in Europe. Assuming, however, that the future administration of 'the Danubian Principalities is to be conducted In con formity with the principles already adopted by the Con ference of Vienna, and that even Russia adheres to that portion of the late imperfect negotiation, we are entitled to revert with increased force to the suggestion that this arrangement should at once be carried into effect. The war may be indefinitely prolonged, but 'the Danubian Principalities are no longer threatened by either belli gerent, though they are suffering all the' evils of a pro longed military occupation. It is obviously important to the general interests of Europe, and to the welfare of these provinces, that they should be restored to their normal condition, and rescued from what we must term their pres,ent anomalous and revolutionary situation. According to the last account, Gen. Coronini, now com manding the Austrian forces at Bucharest, has actually proclaimed martial law, which is, in other words, to as sume, on behalf of the,Austrian military authorities, an arbitrary and supreme command over the country. The Wallachian people are so little accustomed to resist op pression in any shape, and so utterly powerless in the hands of their masters, that it is impossible to justify such a measure by any political necessity. We assert on the contrary, that this act is a direct violation of the treaty of the 14th of June, 1854, between the Emperor of Austria and the Porte. By the third article of that treaty the Court of Vienna contracted a positive engage ment to restore, in concert with the Ottoman Porte, as far as possible, the legal state of things in the Princi palities. Can it be contended that by way of restoring a legal state of things in a country occupied by the troops of an allied power for a particular purpose the general • commanding these troops is entitled to proclaim martial law—that is, to supersede all the established authorities of the State by his own foreign military authority? It is a mere abuse of force, subversive of all law and govern ment, and the more reprehensible, inasmuch as this oc cupation was 'the result of a compact alliance between Austria and the Porte. Among other things that treaty expressly provided that, in the event of the occupation taking place, "the commander of the Imperial army would enforce the strictest discipline of the troops, and that the property, laws, public worship, and customs of the country should be respected." Have these conditions been observed ? On the contrary, many of the regiment.. sent on this service are Croats, whose conduct has been to the last degree offensive, disorderly, and tyrannical. Men of eminence have been driven from the country without a pretence and without form of trial. The ad ministration has been kept forthe most part in the hands of the same individuals who served the Russians, and would serve them again. Prince Stirbey has evaded the promised inquiry into his conduct ; nothing has resulted from the Mixed Commission which was to sit at Vienna on the affairs of the Principalities ; and it is probable that the scandalous confusion of the Government may be the reason alleged by General Coronini to justify the proclamation of martial law. But such a state of things is destructive to the provinces, injurious to the Porte, and discreditable to Austria. The remedy is to be found in the immediate reconstitu tion of the government in its definitive form, so as to substitute legal order for martial law, and constituted authority for foreign occupation. The Porte and its allies have a right to expect the assent of the Court of Vienna to such a proposition, for it is identical with the engagement of an existing treaty ; Russia herself bas accepted the principle of this arrangement, and it would be prudent for France and England to require from Austria some categorical statement of her intentions on this subject. As long ago as last session we think that papers were promised to be laid before Parliament with reference to this occupation, and it would be desirable to ascertain from Mr. Colquhoun's reports what mea sures have been taken to restore the legal government and to correct the gross -abuses of the former adminis tration. We are also entitled to ask on what grounds and by whose authority this declaration of martial law in the Principalities has been made, for, unless it has been done with the consent of the Porte, it is a mere act of violence, not more justifiable thisi4the original Russian invasion. The continuance of this state of things is only the prolongation of those evils which were the most direct causes of the war ; to terminate it is the first step towards peace. It is true that Russia has artfully affected to make her recognition of this principle depend on the neutrality of Germany ; but, in fact, if Germany ceased to be neutral, Russia would only be , the more compelled to respect it. The neutrality of Germany does not depend on any such consideration. It is the result of the in veterate divisions and jealousies which divide the Con federation, of Russian influence over the minor Courts, and of the want of genuine resolution and purposelike energy among the people ;, insomuch that, until a mate rial change has come over the policy of those rulers and e spirit of the nation, we have, lost all confidence iu their - support: Germany bad last year ,a magnificent nart to play in the affairs of Europe, for, united with he Western Powers, she mi , ht at once have checked e ascent ancy of Russia, and terminated the evils of She proved, however, altogether unequal to the occasion, and even the Court of Vienna has been para lysed far more by the intrigues of her own confederates than by the hostile influence of Russia. The policy and operations of the WeStern Powers have at no time been made to depend' on these precarious adherents, and,., though .we acknowledge the importance the Germat, States would immediately acquire by action, their neu• tiality and their passiv.. condition virtually obliterates them from the political map of Europe. (From the Daily News of this day.) East Anglia is the first of the English provinces to , follow the example set by London in the agitation for Administrative Retorm. That peninsula, extending be tween the German Ocean and the feh-lands, has long been distinguished by its devotion to liberal and enlight ened sentiments. It was the country of the awesGresh tns, the founders of our Eng l i sh financial system. t the country of the Bacons ; and those who are familiar w ith the anbals of the Commo nwealth know what effec tive service was render ed in the develop men t of our conititution by more than one kinsman of the sage of Vernlam. It was the country of the Cokes—of the family to which we owe the greatest lutninary of our municipal law, and one of the sternest asserters of the people's liberties. It is from this district England re ceived her Walpole s and Wyndhams. al In later timesher , it has given Eng l a nd her greatest navior, most influential promoter of agricultural improvement, her Gurneys, and her Frys.

REPORT ON • THE STATE OF THE .BOMBAY MARKETS, FROM APRIL,2b TO 15TH. We have had another fortnight of extreme inactivity in our import warket, and the causes'under which it has, so long suffered ha've in no way been removed. Dealers' have almost entirely absented themselves from the fort, if we may judge from the few that ever show themselves, and the amount of business which has changed hands is particularly small fir the time of year, at prices, we re gret to say, for most cotton fabrics, again In favour of the buyers. COTTON YARN.—The market continues without im provement, but prices have been well maintained for been submitted to on all qualities, without leading to any extent of sales, only 2,500 pieces having changed hands ; 52 reed weighing 61b. is at Rs. 2 9 ; 71b., 56 reed, Rs. 3 ; 60 reed, 81b., Rs. 3 13 per piece ; 45- inch also has been difficult to place, and only one small sale of 3,000 pieCes, weighing 71b., is reported at Rs. 3.1 per piece. BLEACHED, AND FANCY GOODS.—The inquiry has been a little more general in these, the low prices being the inducement to buyers, nevertheless a limited busi ness has been done. Satin spots have sold at &reduc tion of 2 annas per' piece, and jacconnet, except middling quality, which is occasionally inquired for, is very dull. Twills are tetuch depressed, as are also shirtings ; dyed madapollams, low 'boob muslini, low 'lappets, and lappet scarves are all dull. Bleached and grey dhoties, mulls, and fine lappets are all in fair inquiry. GREY SHIRTING:-10-inch have been very heavy to move, and a further concession of 2 annas per piece only has ne both mule and water, 40's and 50 's of the former and 20's of the latter being slightly better in price, but sa l es are exceedingly small. The inquiry for dy e d orange and Turkey red is still very languid,and small sale in the former is reported. ma C il OT th T rm W ar o ke o t —P rir t was very y x d P o the O u ß ll T a S arrival t the English i . ldprices o onthe but the accounts being lookectupon as more favourable, a reaction has taken place, ad consider a ble activity hEis n, been manifested by shippers perebases r eac hi ng clohe upon 10,000 baits, a - portion of which, are bought to ak rive, and prices' have consequently recovered themselves. The news by steamer from China, which arrived almost simultanen,ly with the home one, is of a more cheerina complexion than for long past ; and though nothing was doing in the staple at Canton, stocks were being reduced TO THE EDITOR OP THE MORNING ADVERTISER. Sir,—The news of the appointment of Prince Yer moloff at the head of the Russian Foreign-office is very likely a Tatar canard. There is no Prince of that name, and the old General Yeruioloff is older than Prince Paskiewitch, and having always been n military man is very little appropriate to be the chief of the diplomacy. The Russian War Party is now represented by the Grand Duke Constantine, who really exercises such great power as to paralyse the'good will of the new Emperor. He aims , at nothing less than to become the head of a Slavonian and Greek Empire. But I think that, with all his .mbition and capacity, he is not to become a Charle magne, or a Constantine, or the founder of a new empire. It is regretable that there is not any British Ambassador ,now at St. Petersburg who would check the influence of the younger brother of the Czar. Diplomacy may sometimes do more in such circumstances than several bombardments. The Grand Duke Constantine may have more energy than the new Emperor, hut he is leis generous and liberal. His patriotism is only calculated to make partisans to him, and he is so devoted to Abso lutism, that the formation of a Greek empire cannot be of any benefit to mankind. The Constitution of Greece is far too liberal for the Grand Duke ; and the watch ' fulness of Europe will, of course, prevent him from car rying his ambitious plans into effect, provided that some more intellect would preside at the present war. The " Holy Alliance," sir, believe me, is far more to be feared than the Holy Russia. I am, Sir, yours, &c., May 17, 1855.

SHOCKING MURDER AND SUICIDE.—One of those truly heartrending events that mark " the history of our own times" in Kent, has just occurred at Littlebourne. A mother, devotedly fond of her children, has hurried one into eternity, attempted the life of the second, which made its escape from its frantic mother, and subse quently she succeeded in depriving herself of life. The ' author of the sad catastrophe, Mary Ann Cooper, lately was deprived of support by the death of her husband, and then left comparatively destitute, with two young children to Ruppert. The parish gave her the usual allow ance for a widow, with 2s. weekly for the children. It, appears, however, that the relief, so far as t hat g ranted to herself as a widow was concerned, has been discon tinued within the last two months by therelievingofficer, supported, it is believed, by the board of guardians. The manne r, an impressed with the fear of her was fore determined to deprive children starving, woman has and lately a t times been al almost tefrrvaeudti frantic.

The great Nor folk meeting on Tuesday, and the coming meeting at. Yarmouth, are cheering symptoms. Attempts are made in some quarters to deter Liberals front coming forward to promote administrative - reform, by representing the movement as one which may be turned to account by the Tory or Conservative lenders. It is true that some of these gentlemen have been trying to coquet with the administka - tive reformers, It is truly laughable to mark the gingerly fashion in w hi c h t h ey - are seeking to grapple with the question. They are read enough to proclaim, in vague, general terms, the urgent need of administrative reform ; nay, they even go the lengthof talking about the necessity of "putting th e right men in the right places." But they are careful in the extreme not to commit themselves to any definite or . practical accusations that are profess to desire.

Their fear of substantial, effectual Administrative Reform is too. tto admit of their-entering sufficiently into the • movement to do it any harm, or to turn it into an in strument for promoting individual and sinister ambitions. Let us examine a little more closely the value - of the allegation that the Tories are taking up the question of Administrative Reforin. The movement for the attain- . ment of this reform—like the movement which had in view the repeal of the Corn Laws—has been begun by men who do not aim at a political career. The active politicians in this and every country are a comparatively small numb er . All men ye more or less a leaning to one or the other side ofpolitics— to the popu lar or the Thordeiynaateretcoo nthteentcaedreferoorat absolutist.

All the arts and cajolery of mere. party men cannot arrest its triumphant *grew., or make it subservient to their own, ag crandisement. The Administrative Reform move- • went is essentially a liberal one, and can o n ly tend to strengthen and diffuse more widely libe ral prM'ciples. Seitf-seekers may take part lin it, and for a time remain undetected, but their influence- will en dure only so long as they really promise it ; when they torn to promote their own miserable ends they will be thrown aside and left behind. Let no true Liberal be deterred from taking part in the movement by insinua tions that this or the other questionable character has joined it from interested 'motives. The singleness of purpose of the great masses who lend it strength is a ' guarantee that the puny dexterity of individuals can not convert it into an instrument of evil. Let us wel come every ally ; let us give him credit for sincerity and honesty of purpose till he shows himself unworthy of it ; and then let us leave him to his solitary shame, and the rankling stings of detected and defeated hypocrisy. (Prom the Morning Chronicle of this day.) . . Lord Palmerston's reply to the question put by Sir H. Willoughby, last evening, indicates a fixed resolu tion on the part of the Government to . keep the country in the dark on subjects which it esteems of the most vital interest. There have been " informal" communi qtions from Austria, through France, of a date subse; ' quent to the last ptiblished protocol. But of what na ture they were—whetherindicatinzon part of the former power a meditated treason to the engagements of Dec. la , t, or only honest and justifiable efforts to reconnect the broken threads of negot'ation—not the slightest in fOrmation is afforded. " Peace with honour, or war With victory !" was the highsounding phrase with which olord Palmerston tickled the ears of the citizens on ednesday evening, but at present we seem as from the e as from the other, although laborious efforts have en made to arrive at both. The reader's of this journal have long since been in-'. firmed of the true position of LOrd John Russell, not ly as regards. the question of peace or war, but also t wards his colleagues in the Ministry. In the same s nse that Lord Palmerston was placed at the head of '' airs that he might proclaim our resolve to prosecute e war with vigour, Lord John Russell was sent to ienna to represent the ultimatum of the English ne t on, nearly in the shape formularised by Lord -Palliser- on—" Peace with honour, or war witlevictory." The lntents of the protocols recently published abundahtly test i that we are not premature or prejudiced in at- ibuting to ile noble lord a demeanour at Vienna cal ' la a ted t to i c L omp a rori h se t' l , t e ho l n l o s u i r c o e f h h is is country. The l Io es far to confirm the view we then took, and to show - at he is actuated by any motive rather than true pa triotism. .. Is is possible that Lord Palmerston's silence itattributable to fear of his colleague ? Lord John Russell is not very fanions for discretion. The Earl of Aberdeen bad to deplore certain spasmodic . ts of independence on the part of the noble lord, , high, if they did not actually imperil the administra- on, Certainly rendered it ridiculous. Such a coadjutor i dangerous even to a strong administration —how much ; tt lie more so to ono not remarkable for symptoms of sta bility or longevity ? It is quite impossible to say 'what lothe cause of the phenomenon, but Lord. John Res- _ ll is at the present moment in that state of mind which is popularly known as " the sulks." Perhaps be did - not figure with distinction enough at Vienna. Or, al though unable himself to sustain an administration, he may at least be determined to show his power to destroy the work of another Has he never yet forgiven the ill turn Lord Palmerston did him in February, 1852 ? Is Hdiscontented at_ net having the leadership of the ouse of Commons ? - Does he want: to be War Minis- • Or ? Or, does he see that . the political interests of the Whig party are identified with those of the commercial glasses, and does he therefore intrigue for peace 1 The list of possible causes of the noble lord's ill•humour is inexhaustible. Of the fact of his being in a more than usually restive state, no one can doubt who has observed Otis personal demeanour in the House of Commons, and has connected it with his public conduct during his stay A Vienna and since his return. , Even at the Mansion-house dinner, Lord J. Russell 4dopted a line of conduct very extraordinary in a Mini titer who took so marked a course in favour of the war during the Aberdeen Administration, and at the moment when he resolved on its destruction. Lord Palmerston at least so far met the public anxiety as to string toget her a few pompous phrases on one topic conne c t e d wi th he war, and to conclude with the saf e a lt erna ti ve max i m L s o which we have already ref erre d. B u t L or d J o h n .ussell, as if to draw a line of demarcation between him isnd his chief, only entertained his audience with a tissue tif most unnecessary praises of the House of Commons. When a little temporary applause was to be obtained is i he House of Commons by a clap-trap about the taking , f Sebastopol, the noble lord was not so chary, even !although his volunteered declaration might then be of a nature seriously to embarrass the Administration, and', lencourage the enemy by letting him know in advance lour tactics. The reluctance of Lord Palmerston to permit any dis cussion in Parliament upon the great question of peace or war, appears inexplicable, except upon the hypothesis' that he wished to , avoid giving his restive colleague an opportunity of betraying their domestic differences., So %good a tactician as Lord Palmerston has proved himself• . Ito be during the political vicissitudes of many vests, . would scarcely have provoked public censures as he has done, save 'for some - very overpowering 'reason. This, 1 we fear, must be sought in the -leaning of Lord John Russell towards a peace not " with honour," as the only means of escaping a war without vjctoryn. The atmosphere of Vienna has produced its eff ect c. o a. Chu noble lord.
