' (;, high words ens and in her passion she stru_ stated. The death of the deceased by the of the prisoner being admitted, the question between thodefeLoll and the prosecution was simply, whether the facts proved the ease to be one of murder or manslaughter. For ti • prosecution it was relied upon, among other facts, that a man who lived next door to the Blessings, and who, owing to the thinness of the partition, could hear vet, slight noises upon the premises, hoard blows on the morning in question, but no words, or sound of voices, or anything leading to the supposition that a quarrel or struggle was taking place. The evidence of Mary Blesri ing, a girl eleven years old, one of the prisoner's chil dren at horn. with her on the morning of the murder, though adduced for the prosecution, tendod to Confirm the statements made by the prisoner before the•coFoner's jury. Mr. Dearaley, also, commented upon the fact that the hammer had not been concealed. It `was lad upon the table when the parties entered the house tinged with blood, and same of the grey hairs of the deceased were adhering to it, inviting attention and forming an important piece of evidence against the prisoner. If, he urged, she had been guilty of deliberate murder, the first' thing she would have done would have been to make away with the deadly weapon—that was the line of conducted pursued by all murderers. His lordship having summed up, The jury retired for a quarter of an hour,l and on re turning into court gave a verdict of guilty, of man slaughter, and his lordship sentenced the prisoner to transportation for life.

We have within the last few days some important addenda to the confirmations of our statements given by the witnesses before the Crimean Star-chamber. There is some little diffi culty in dealing with these separate blocks of evidence. One witness testifies to the shortcomings of the commissariat, another denounces the mal-administration, a third inveighs against the transport service. The report is, as it were, a tesselated pavement, and can only be dealt with piecemeal. It may perhaps add something of clearness to, our notice of the testimony given, if we confine ourselves to the statements of two leading witnesses, each deposing to matters strictly within his own knowledge, and of the utmost importance to the welfare of the expedition. We speak of Lord Lucan, who commanded the cavalry division, and of Mr. Macdonald, the gentleman who acted for the subscribers to the fund for the Relief of the Sick and Wounded Soldiers, with which the name of our own office has been so largely involved. Lord Lucan shell have the precedence. The difficulties against which he had to contend seem to have had their beginning almost simultaneously with the ar rival •of the cavalry at Scutari. No sooner were they placed in barracks at Kululee, about four miles from that place, than Lord Liman began his contest with the Commissariat officers—a contest which seems to have raged with greater or less intensity during the whole period of de general's stay with the British forces. The two commissaries et Kululee knew nothing about horses. They were two young gentlemen from the Treasury—one was Mr. Murray, a son of the Bishop of Rochester ; the other a Mr. Cookesley. Dur ing the encampment at Varna the heavy cavalry suffered fearfully from the cholera, but that is nothing to our imme diate purpose. When the embarkation for the Crimea took place numbers of horses were left behind for want of trans sports, but even for all of those taken riders could not be found. So great was the sickness among the men that when the army reached the Alma there were no less than 150 led horses on 1,100 taken. Each of these 150 horses required a mounted trooper to lead it ; so here were 309 men and horses hors de combat. We pass over the transactions at the Alma. When the army got to Balaklava at first there was forage enough for the horses, " great quantities of hay being. found about the country." Not only was there plenty of hay, but there were cargoes of forage in the port. " There could have been no difficulty," said Lord Lucau, " in making stores to any extent, as the weather was fine and there were plenty of ships in the harbour full of forage." Nothing was done, and soon the sharp pinch came. At first the commander of the cavalry sent his own troopers to the ships to procure forage for themselves, which they did out of the holds of the vessels, and this staved off the evil day for a while. Next came representations to Quartermaster -General Airey, and bickerings with Mr. CoMmissary-General Filler; both were unproductive of result. "The Commissary-General continued to entrust the commissariat duties to youths utterly inexpe rienced, and who, moreover, showed no great zeal or desire to make up by their exertions for their personal deficiencies." Can we wonder that, as a natural consequence of such a state of facts, we find Lord Lucan, a little further on in his evidence, complaining that the supplies of forage for the cavalry were most irregular, and sometimes failed alto gether? The Light Brigade were in an analogous situa tion. The forage was never landed from the ships, unless immediately before it was wanted. Lord Lucan com plained of this in the proper quarter, but simply received no answer to his letter. At one time, driven to desperation, he was forced to apply to General Canrobert for assistance, aid the French General lent them from his stores 30 days' fodder, which was chopped straw. This was as early as November. Then, again, Lord Lucau complains of the want of common necessaries for the use of the cavalry—such as cornsacks, nosebags, Sze. This led to a great waste of grain, for when the nosebags were worn out the corn was cast Gown upon the ground, and a great portion of it wasted, especially in wet weather. And all this time there were ships innumerable in the harbour and offing, with sailmakers aboard, who would soon have made nosebags by the score, and Constantinople was distant but three clays' sail ! The whole history would appear to be related rather to play upon our credulity than to convince our judgment. We have not, unfortunately, space to follow Lord Lucan through the remainder of his valuable evidence, but in it may be seenhow speedily, under " existing arrangements," the high-nettled racer is brought to the dung cart—in other wards, how soon the few half-starved sur vivors of the British troop horses, which should have borne their brave riders to victory , had common precaution been taken for their preservation, were brought down to the duty of carrying up stores from the port to the camp, for the pur pose of keeping the infastry alive. It is the same through out, on Lord Lucan's showing. Planks for huts for the horses were brougld , from Sinope, " but they were not able to use the boards for some time from the want of nails. By some mistake or other, they bad forgotten to seat' nails with the planks," &c. And so we pass on to the evidence of Mr. Macdonald. What can we do with this testimony ? Transcribe it ? Part has already appeared in our impression of Thursday, and the rest we pm lish to day. We take it up with the idea of briefly mentioning the principal points, and we fall straight upon the followins statement, whiN, if false, can easily be set aside by those whose credit is involved. For five weeks after the arrival of Mr. Macdonald no washing was done in any o l l : i t s! ' ewiss hospital , save the httheaßarrack el clothing t o d f . th ' e ` I menkno know," '' was said t t under the beds as it was, crawling with vermin, filthy with the discharge from wounds, and sometimes containing maggots." Medical stores and medical comforts of all kinds were wanting, notwithstanding the flat denial with which this statement was made at home. Upon one occasion, and one occasion only, the ambassador, Lord Stratford, sent down to the hospital to inform the medical authorities that he had the power of supplying them with anything that was wanted. Their answer was that they were not in want of anything ; they did not have recourse to him, and he never troubled his head any more about the matter. Everything, or most things wanted, might, have been purchased at Constantinople, but nothing was done. The great failure was in the purveyor's department. One infirm old man and a couple of youthful and imbecile assistants seem to have been charged with the duty of catering for the wants of so many thousands of sick and wounded men. "If the medical officer saw a mau in want of a shirt he would wri e a requisition for one, and send it to the purveyor, and the purveyor word I say there was no such article in store,' or ' Call again to ' morrow,' or some such answer."

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con ie.quences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, Which have proauced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature . decay at all stages, of Life, than, perhaps, any Jther class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is oarticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is o :titled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are .rineiPles of personal management which cannot be violated without b,careing grievous 'dimities, and when wisdom and regret succeed t`, o heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, hew these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, t• , d how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, t gat there le scarcely any decree of physical infirmity or functional terangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. rte Author hal for a series of years been engaged in an extensive actice in 'he treatment of these delicate , complaints, which have apfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant empirice, who Inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

The formation of an educational district is not corn pnlsory upon tV:e ratepayers, but it rests in their discretion whether in each union the act shall be operative or a dead letter. Once adopted, however, the observance of all the subsequent and attached provisions'becomes, of course, compulsory. The schools are to be subject to Government inspection, as at present, and the central:educational govern ment iS to be vested, as now, in the Committee of .Privy Council, which, however, is to be subjecefd to a good deal of remodelling, and is to be represented iu ;Parliament by a re sponsible Minister of the Crown. Theri is to be no inter ference exercised in respect of any existing agencies for education. Such, in the main, is the machinery rich Sir J. Palling ton proposes, not to substitute for, but to superadd to, that which he finds at work. We should have strongly protested againit any proposition which involved the abrogation of the 'numerous establishments which voluntary efforts and private benevolence have constituted, and are now maintain ing throughout the land, and which, although it may be con ceded that they fall short in extent, and in some degree in form, too, of the present and prospective requirements of the community, have done a vast deal more, we are disposed to think, than Sir John Pakington gives them credit for, to in crease the knowledge and advance the social condition of the people ; but we see no objection to this scheme being imposed upon the existing system if the imposition can be effected without material disturbance. And we do not see why it should not. Coalition, we should think, may be compassed, even though amalgamation may net be possible. We are quite ready to admit that the machinery which we have in operation now is not adequate to the work which it is called upon to perform. We are ready to admit, without dispute or cavil, a great, the greatest part of the statements which Sir John put forth ; and of the opinions which he advanced with re gard to the prevalence and degree of ignorance among the masses of our population. We feel strongly, and we have urged our conviction, over and over again, upon the public, that a very large proportion of the ednUtional acquirements which our population is reputed to have attained—whatever show and appearance theymake upon pa*, and in statistical returns —have no reality ; and thatthe system which makes such a display in report,produce , s comparatively trifling results, and excerciscs but ephemeral influences. This is but the natural consequence of educating men—whose destived, occupation is that of teachers of petit. living by niani(al labour—u if their present object was . to - take high honours at - the nniver. sities, and their contemplated career that of the statesman, the barrister, the physician, or the Churchman, and of these men attempting with similar mistaken views to pour—just as you would pour water into a pail--into the mind of a child who, at the utmost, is to be two years under their ma nipulation, as great an amount and as great a variety of ac quirements as is attainable, and attained by a clever and in dustrious so-a of a man in easy circumstances, who is able to devote absolutely to mental cultivation at least twelve years of his life. This is one of the chiefest evils of our present sys tem as conducted by the Committee of Privy Council, and we have observed, with much regret and apprehension, that several of the cleverest and most zealous of the Government inspectors have given encouragement to its growth, and have forced the directors of some of our training establishments, from year to year, to a perpetual ascent iu the scale of educa tion applied to candidates for the masterships of schools. It is a practice which is objectionable not only because it defeats the object for which the training schools are specially estab lished, but because it, moreover, has a tendency to create, and that at the public expense, a class of men in whom is generated, by the unwholesome and unfitting stimulus applied to their minds, an ambition without a distinct object or a tangible resting place, and a largo proportion of whom, con sequently, will probably pass their lives in wandering to and fro through society restless and discontented, seeking a posi tion and finding, none, and the ready instruments of every political agitation that the turmoil of life in large towns may send forth. It is evidently impossible in the limits of a single article to give an opinion upon the variety of important questions to which a Ration is given by the great scope of Sir J. Paking t- scheme, and we, therefore, pre:Cr to reserve, till we see the bill in print, any positive expression of our views with regard to a large proportion of its contemplated provi sions. The policy or hp policy of free admission, for instance, wili depend considerably, iu our opinion, upon the extent of the area to which it is proposed to apply the rating. If it be extended so as to embrace all families really capable of paying, and it is found capable of producing, with the aid of the Consolidated Fund, a revenue suffi cient for the maintenance of the school in each district, we see no reason for requiring the payment of pence from individual children; the education of those who have the ability having been, in fact, already paid for by the contribution of their families to the rate ; but we would beg Sir John Pakington and the house to bear in mind that the great danger to be guarded against, in all plans for giving good and cheap education to the poor, is the natural and almost inevitable tendency of the class above them to press into the establishments and elbow them out—.-a tendency which we doubt will always be found active at all times and in all places, so long as the private schools to which the middle classes resort are so miserably constituted and admi nistered. The last and greatest difficulty with which Sir John pro poses to grapple, namely, that of religious teaching to all classes and sects, presents such a large field of consideration and discussion, that it is impossible to enter fully upon it within the limits of this article ; and to touch upon it, with out going completely into it, would only be to do injustice both to ourselves and the subject. We postpone, therefore, to a future occasion the expression of our views, and will only add, that whatever may be th individual opinions 's with regard to Sir John Pakingtou p osition, there can be but one feeling of respect and admiratte , for the tolerant and Christian-like spirit which he evinced- treating that com plicated and momentous question. - 'TELLIGENCE, SIR JOHN PAKINGTON'S EDUCATION BILL. (From the Morning Post of this day.) Sir John Pakington, iu a speech remarkable alike for its comprehensiveness and its temperate and tolerant spirit, in troduced last night into the House of Commons a bill for the promotion of education, which, whether it meet with diAsen sion or agreement, must be admitted, at all events in scope and completeness, far to surpass any schemes which have preceded it. As far as the framing goes it- is unquestion ably superior to that which has been submitted to Parlia ment by Lord John Russell. It embraces more objects, and faces and grapples with the larger difficulties, to which Lord John appeared rather disposed to give the go ,by, in a bolder spirit and in a more comprehensive manner. The scheme which Sir John Pakington sketched out, and which he proposes to embody in a bill, amounts shortly to this :—Ho proposes to take advantage of the division of the kingdom, which has already been effected for the pur poses of the administration of the Poor-law, for the objects 'of wiglin and' its his bill, and to constitut e each union an educat i ona l district, within which the provisions of the bill are to bo a dministered bstyreanbgotharedneedlebetyedobey atdhdeitiosunffrqafgetshe magistrates a t g h i er r a a tp s A area, vebose office is to constitute them members of it.

Mr. Macdonald, in continuation, said—Supposing be hai considered it his duty to make any representation as to the state of the hospital, he should have gone to the Ambassador, and not to the medical head. The two hospital hulks had a medical staff of their own, but were still under the authority of the hospitals on shore. The transport system for the sick was not a special one. The operation of landing was under the disposal of Ad miral Boxer ; but during the passage, and previous to landing, the sick were under the direction of the medical officer of the vessel. Mr. Eilice—Whose duty was it to supply food and comforts to the sick and wounded on board the tran- sports, after their arrival in the Bosphorus, and before they were landed? Mr. Macdonald—Food was supplied by the captain of the vessel under the authority of the Admiralty ; and medical comforts and medicines sera distributed by the medical department ; so that, in fact, it was necessary that the authorities of two departments should interft.ra in the matter. _ _ _ Mr. Layard—When the sick- were placed in the hos pitals, t 3 whom was application to be made for bedding and other necessaries? Mr. Macdonald—The purveyor was the person. Mr. Layard—Will you be kind enough t r explain to the committee your own mode of proceeding whilst you were at Scutari? Mr. Mar.s.denald then entered into a detailed statement of - the course he pursued with regard to the purchase and administration of necessaries and comforts to the sick and wounded, stating that in his exertions he was ma terially assisted by the co-operation and kind offices of Miss Nightingale. He added that he supplied one regi ment (the 39th) with warm clothing on the application of the surgeon of that regiment. He obtained that clothing at Constantinople. The surgeon stated that it would be a charity to the men it the clothing were given to them, as they bad come from a warm climate without any provision in the way of clothing for a colder tem perature, He (Mr. Macdonald) obtained the supply at Constantinople, and got it on board the next day. He never supplied any other regiment or persons going to the Crimea. Ho did, however, contribute medical com forts, bedding, Turkish quilt., and other articles, to the convalescents proceeding home in Government trans ports, on the application of the Rev, Mr. Sabine. By Mr. Ler:l'd—Can you state what was the style of cooking in the hospitals ? Mr. Macdonald—The provision far this was of the modest possible kind, and there was a great deal of delay and irregularity in getting meals prepared and served up. For instance, if a mutton chop were ordered for a patient at one o'clock, it would not, perhaps, be ready before eight o'clock at night. By Colonel Lindsay—He knew of several persons baying been asked by the sentries what there business was at the hospitals. But he had never been interfered with in that manner ; yet he could not say why. He believed that in some hospitals it was not the custom to admit strangers. By Lord Seymour—He thought it advisable that strangers should have had admission at any time with out any formalities. Before he went out he had an inter view with the Duke of Nevicastle and Dr. Andrew Smith ; from the latter of whom he got a letter of intro duction to Dr. Cumming, and was also informed that no strangers were admitted to the hospitals except at certain times to see a patient, or to inspect it ; but, in either case, they must be accompanied by some official of the establishment. He was further told the same facility, compatible With these regulations, would be eitended to:him as a matter of course. On his arrival he called upon Dr. Menzies, and informed him that he bad come out with money for the relief of the sick and wounded ; at the shine tittle requesting facilities for the idea of what has become, in your opinion, of the vast quantities of stores which have been sent from thi s country to the East ? Mr. Macdonald —ls it quite certain that they hive all left this country ? (Laughter.) If the committee asks Inc my own explanation of the confusion in the trans port service I can answer them. In Turkey there is a want of three great requisites, wharves, warehouses, and roads. The Government being unacquainted with the absence of these great facilities send out giant steamers across the ocean to Constantinople and Balaklava ; and the consequence is when they arrive they are converted into store-houses. What is absolutely required is taken out of them and the rest is left behind in them and for gotten. It is just as though one end =of London-bridge .bad given way and the traffic was allowed to pass over it all the same—there was a smash at the other end. Mr. Drummond—What do you think then became of such stores as were sent. out ? Mr. Macdonald—A great deal of them was wasted, a little was stolen, and a quantity was misplaced and lost sight of. After replying to a few further questions Mr. Mac donald retired with the thanks of the committee. Deputy Commissary General Stickney was then called, but only answered a few inquiries, when it was announced that the Speaker was at prayers, and The Committee thereupon adjourned until 12 o'clock on Monday. fulfilment et that object. Dr. Menzies was very polite, but said that nothing was wanted. (A laugh.) Lord Seymour—Where did you obtain the port wine you supplied to the patients in the hospitals ? Mr. Macdonald—ln Constantinople. Lord Seymour—Then there was good wino to be ob tained there ? Mr. Macdonald —Certainly. Mr. Ball—When you saw the Duke of Newcastle did he attempt to dissuade you from going in any W ay y Mr. Macdonald—He said it would be useless ; at least that if anything was wanted in the hospital the ambassador would supply it. Mr. Drummond=-Can you give the ccnmittea any ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—MAIDSTONE, MARCU 15. Stephen- Kelsey was indicted for feloniously forging and uttering a promissory note for 150 1 ., with intent to defraud. The circumstances under which this charge was pre ferred were of a rather peculiar character. It appeared that a society had been established at Whitstable, under the title of the Co-operating Society, the object of which appeared to be to purchase provisions and other neces saries at wholesale prices, the members of the society being entitled to the ,privilege of purchasing them at those prices, with an addition of 74 per cent, for rent and other expenses. The society was carried on under the superintendence of three persons, named Waters, Wheeler, and West, and prisoner was the secretary ; ' and it appeared that the entire management of the con cern was left t 3 him—the three persons mentioned, who were the committee, taking very little share in it. It seemed that the operations of the society were not satis factory, and in July last year one of their creditors, a Mr. Barnwell, applied to the prisoner upon the subject of a debt of 4001. that was due to him, and insisted upon having some eecurity, and the prisoner after a little ne gociatiou gave him a promissory note for 150/., bearing , the signatures of the three persons who formed the com mittee, and also his own as secretary. It appeared that the prisoner paid the amount of the note out of money that came into his hands; but when he applied for the otn;ssory note Mr. Barnwell, for some reason or other, could not give it up, and told him it was destroyed. The society after this got into still greater d;fficulties, I and upon an examination of the account-4, it was found that they were 1,0001. in debt, and the prisoner failed to give any satisfactory ace mist respecting the defi ciency, and subsequently absconded, and upon the society being made acquainted with the transaction relating to the promislory note in questioe, the pre sent charge was preferred against him and he was taken into custody. These facts were proved in evi dence, and the three persons whose names appeared to the bill were examined, and they swore that the signatures were forgeries, and that the prisoner had no authority whatever to sign such an insrument in their behalf. Mr. Parry made a very ingenious address to the jury for the defence, and he 'contended, en behalf of the pri soner, that although he might have acted improperly, and even dishonestly, as regarded the society in refer ence to the money intrusted to him, yet that there was nothing to show that he had any intention to defraud either the society or Mr. Barnwell when he passed away the promissory note in question, and that the fact of his having paid it afterwards begatived the suspicion that he ever entertained any idea of committing a fraud. He likewise urged that in point of fact the prisoner was the principal member of the society, and had complete con trol over all matters connected with it, and that he might have considered himself authorised to put the names of the committee to such an instrument ; and he said that, although he slight be wrong in law in enter taining- such an opinion, yet, if he conscientiously did so, the jury would not be. justified in convicting him of forgery under such circumstances. Mr. Bramwell, in summing up, told the jury it was his duty to inform them that if a person put the name of another to a bill of exchange or promissory note and passed it away, even if it should appear ever so clearly that he intended to pay the bill when it arrived at maturity, he was still undoubtedly guilty of forgery. The instrument was calculated to deceive and defraud every person to whom it was passed as bearing the genuine signature of the person whose name appeared upon it, and it was the object of the law to prevent such vpreoncieeneciceings and a m s is b e e h i i n e g f in ca a lc c u o la m ted mer t c o ial ca c u o s ai e great munit iy.ncTohn e learned gentleman then called the attention of the jury to the facts of the case, and said that the only questions they had to decide were whether the signatures to the promissory note in question were forged, and if so, whether, when it was uttered, there was an intention to defraud any person. The jury, after deliberating for some time, addressed the court and said they were of opinion that the signa tures were forged, but they did not think that there was any intention to defraud the society. Mr. Parry said that this was a verdict of not guilty. Mr. Bramwell was about to give some explanation to the jury, when Mr. Parry interposed and said that the court had no right to discuss the matter with the jury, and he should object to anything more being done than to ask if they had agreed upon their verdict. Mr. Bramwell said he should certainly inform the jury that it was not necessary for them to be satisfied that the prisoner intended to defraud the society. He had passed the promissory note as a genuine document to Mr. Barnwell, and they would consider whether or not he intended to defraud that gentleman by giving him a forged instrument. Mr. Parry said he must protest against the course that was taken by the learned judge, as being alien to every principle of the English law. He had all through the case evidently been actuated by the desire to get a ver dict, and his summing up was a reply, and during the whole of it he bad not said on word in favour of the prisoner. Mr. Bramwell said the learned counsel must be aware that such an observation was most irregular and impro pi and it compelled him to make this remark, that if he had said nothing in favour of the prisoner, it Wfti be cause it appeared to him that there was really nothing • to say. The jury then again deliberated, and after some time they gave a spec'al verdict to the effect, that the pri soner had knowingly uttered a forged instrument with intent to deceive Mr. Barnwell, but without any inten tion to defraud ultimately. Mr. Parry asked the court to reserve the question of the effect of this verdict for the consideration of the Court of Criminal Appeal; but Mr. Bramwell said he was of opinion tha, it amounted to a verdict of guilty. He would, however, take advice upon the subject ; and in the meantime, he should p )stpone passing sentence. 1 The prisoner was subsequeutly brought up for judg ment, and Mr. Bramwell said that he had consulted the \judges with reference to the verdict that had been de livered, and after full consideration, the result arrived at was that the prisoner had been properly convicted. The offence of Surgery is a very serious one under any circumstances, and in the present case there could be no doubt that the prisoner had committed the crime in order to conceal other peculations. Under these circum. stances, Le felt it hie duty to order hint to be kept in penal servitude for four years. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.-YORK, MARCIE 14. THE OTLRY MURDER. Mary Blessing, 4i, was charged with the wilful mur der of Francis Blessing, her uncle, at Otley, on the Bth of January last. Mr. Hardy and Mr. Middleton were for the prosecution. Mr. Dearsley defended. The prisoner is tha wife of a man named Bryan Bles sing, living in Otley. The deceased, Francis Blessing, uncle to the prisoner's husband, was an infirm old man, 84 years of age, who, for many years, had lived with the prisoner and her husband. Deceased obtained his living by begging, as his age and infirmities prevented him from doing any work. On the inc , rniur, of the Bth of January, tha prisoner went to th e housec of a man named Mullen, and inform e d hi m th at t h e deceased had fallen down stairs and killed himself. Mullen went to the house, and saw the old man lying dead at the foot of the stairs, with a fender lyi ng in front of him, and on whichlelr daughters,it wsalleged he had f a ll en . P r i sone r, and one of aged 11 yearP, were the only members cf the family at home, the r,it having left for their work some hours previ ous l y.

Count de Buol will explain the state of the question, in a speech setting forth the history of the diplomacy of the last two years. He will then read the protocol of De cember 28, and the additional declarations exchanged since by the parties to the treaty of December 2, to de termine the sense of the third guarantee required by them from Russia. The intent of this prefatory reading will be to lay down in an unmistakeable and irrevocable manner the basis of negotiations for peace. Prince Gortschakoff awl M. de Titoff will be asked to give their formal ad hesion to the protocol and to affix their signatures to it. Should they refuse, the conferenoeti will be immediately closed.. In case their objections sriould merely relate to secondary p o i n t s , th e r epresentatiyes of the Allied Powers will, if tf.ey think fit, defr to t l 7 object: on their own repensibility,- le them ti their Governments ad referenda44 It is to be suppeL KI that, even in the case of the C on f erences b e ing declared closed in principle, the Russian Plenipotentiaries would be allowed a reasonable time to ask for fresh instructions, so that every door for negotiation may be left open up to Passion-week. If by that time no understanding is come to, the Conferences will be dissolved without loss of time, and arms alone will be depended upon to effect a solution. Austria, whose threats of declaring war upon Russia have so frequently come to nothing, is now said to be firmly resolved to ~hrow away the scabbard should the Vienna Conferences come to no result by the beginning of April. • MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)
