WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY. Tho Queen held a Chapter of the Opfer of the Garter at three o'clock this afternoon in The Castle for the pur pose of investing his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of the French with the en , igns of this most noble (trier. Thy Knights Companions were robed in the Guard Chamber, and afterwards passed to the Grand Reception Room. Her Majesty the Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert were cor.ducted by the great officers of -tiite to the Throne Room, followed by the Doke of Cambridge and the Prince of Leiningen. The Queen and their royal serene highnesses wore the purple velvet mantle, the crimson velvet hood, and the splendid collar of the order. The train of her Majesty, the Sovereign of the order, was borne by the pages of honour in wait ing. The Queen wore also a diamond diadem. The Knights Companions were called ewer by Garter King of Arms, when the following answered accordin to their order of seniority :—The Marquis of Exeter, the Duke of Richmond, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Duke of Buckingham, the Marquis of Salisbury, the Dike ~ f C'eveland; Earl de Grey, the Marqui ,, of Aber corn, the 111,.rquis of Hertford, the Duke of Bedford, the Earl of Clarendon, Eirl Spencer.

Ti e Pr.late of the Order stood on the right of the Queen, the Chancelkr on the left, while the Register, ;aver, and Black Rod remained at the bottom of the table. The ceremony commenced by the Chancellor reading a new le atute, by the command of the Queen, dispensing with the existing statues of the Order of the Garter in as tar as required for the especial purpose therein men tioned, and ordaining and declaring that his Imperial Majesty Napoleon 111 , Emperor of the French, be de- Oared a knight of this order, any statute, decree, rule, or uliere to the contrary notwithstanding. By the Queen's command the Emperor of the French. was conducted from his apartments through the music-- room and grand reception room between Pi ince Albeit end the Duke of Cambridge, the two senior knights companions present, preceded by touter King of Arms (bearing the ensigns the order upon a crimson velvet cushion) and by Black Rod. The Queen and the Knights of the Garter received his Imperial Majesty standing, and the Yenpernr, pawing to the head.ef the table, weir &seat iu the chair of state on the right hand of her Majesty. The Empress of the French. the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, Prince Alfred. the Princess Alice, and the Duchess of Cambridge a,41 the Princess Mary had been con 'noted to the Throne Room before the entrance 4 the Queen for the purpose of witnessing the august eereinoey. The Empress and the Duchess of Cambridge were usheree. to seats near the throne. The Queen announced to the Emperor of the French that his Ithperial Majesty had been elected a Knight of the Most Noble Order. of the Garter. Garter King of Arms, kneeling, presented the Garter to the Sovereign, and her Majesty, assisted by Prince Albert, buckled it on the left leg of the Emperor, the Chancellor pronouncing the admonition. Garter King of Arms presented the Rihand with the George, and the Queen put the same over the lett !der of the Emperor, the Chancellor pronouncing the ni one ion. The Queen then gave the Accolade to the Emperor, and his Imperial Majesty received the congratulations of Prince Albert, the Duke of Cambridge, the Prince of Leiningen, and each of the Knights Companion , : present. The chapter being thus ended, the Knights Com panions were again called over by Garter, and retired from the presence of the Suvereign with the usual WINDSOR, WEDNESBLT. Neither the Emperor nor Empress have been seen out side the Castle walls this day. It is said that the Em- Press Eugenie suffered severely from the sea voyage, and is at the present time not yet entirely recovered. In the hope of being gratified with the sight of the Emperor and Empress, several thousands of spectator., a great number of whom were in carriages or on horse back, assembled in the Long Walk. At five o'clock the Duke of Cambridge, accompanied by the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred, and attendants . , rode down from the Castle, and were loudly cheered by the multi tude. Soon afterwards her Makisty the Queen, accompanied by the Duchess of Kent and the Duchess of Wellington, attended by the Equerries in Waiting, in three carriages, arrived, and were loudly cheered. The g entlemen corn posing the suite of the Emperor of the F rench followed immediately afterwards on horseback. The reception of the Emperor is thus announced to the French nation in yesterday's Moniteur : " The Emperor and Empress arrived yesterday even- 1 ing (Monday) at Windsor amid the loudest acclamations. .The Queen of England gave the Emperor and Empress a moat cordial and gracious reception. His Royal High • ness Prince Albert, who had come to Dover in order to receive their Majesties, accompanied them to the Palace of Windsor. It is impossible to give an idea .of the enthesiasin with which the Emperor and EinpreQs have been received by the English nation from the instant their Majesties set foot on British soil.. At London, during the passage of the Imperial procession, more than a million of persons were counted, the majority of them wearing the colours of France, and uttering en thusiastio vivats. The town of Windsor had raised triumphal arches, and the battlements of the castle were illuminated. Never has a foreign Sovereign received a welcome so cordial and so splendid.

To-morrow, the 20th of April, is the anniversary of the birthday of Napoleon 111. The fact had escaped our recollection till our attention was called to it by that great watcher of times and seasons, the illustrious astrologer Raphael—the Lilly of the 19th century. Our astrological education having been sadly ne glected, we must honestly confess that the technical language employed by this venerable sage has rendered his lucubrations on the astral indications of the future fortune of the Emperor in a great measure a sealed book to us. It is therefore gratifying to learn from one passage, which is couched in common English, that the positions which the planets that dominated at the Eta. peror's birth assume at the close of the 47th Solar re volution, promise him "g eat success, good health, new friends, pecuniary benefit. &c." On this day—when the C , rporation of London en tertain the Emperor at Guildhall—it may not be unin teresting to the friends of our esteemed L, ird Mayor to learn that, according to Raphael, the Moon plays an important part .in the Imperial H oro.eope. Tue eru .. dire astrologer is iudeed of opinion, that " the Moo always aphetie to some extent, if not 'fully so. From the Emperor's nativity, which the sage published in 1853, it appears that the Moon was "on the cusp ot of the second house, but her great northfra latitude e'e vated the luminary so much in a mundane position as te cause it to be no less than 6 degrees from the cup thereof, and consequently brought it within the hylegia eal limit." This is, indeed, a wonderful coincidencel; fur inasmuch as "Hyleg" means "the Giver of Life,' the planetary position at the time of the Emperor's birth clearly foretold that his health would one day be given —or proposed—by a Moon when " elevated in a mun dane position." What follows is oracularly obscure, but, on the whole, encouraging. "The significations are most striking and complex, referring to both good and evil ; namely, the sextile of the Sun and Jupiter, the latter being on the radical place of the Moon, is very favourable, giving a great impetus to the national prosperity of France. The arts, sciences, and commerce flourish ; but the con junction of the Sun and Mars points to some extraordi nary warlike afts, which gr-atly redound to the national hoonur and glory." Of course t' e watcher of "the stars in their courses' never condescends to stoop from the " high lonely tower" in which he prosecutes his astral resea'ches to listen to the vulgar hum of what is going on up n earth. N'ithii , g can have reached his ear about the opening of the Palais de l'lndustrie en May , lay, or the Emperor's projected visit to the Crimea. But the stars have told him all, When we ventured to remark, a day or two av), that a parallel between the visit of Henry VIII. to . France and that of Napoleon 111. to England, was calculated to impress upon the mind a conviction of the unchangeable ness of human nature in all ages, we did not count upon the resuscitation of a professional jester to assume the functions of "Bluff Hal's" Will Somers. Yet who can deny that the astrologer, as Sir Tohy Belch might have mid, is in "admirable fooling ?"—Morning Paper. CALAMITOUS FIRE AT GRILENSVICII.—A. serious fire, by which a , aged female lost her life, took place at a lite hour on Tuesday night., in the premises of Mr. E.

Mr. Filder, at least, -cod he ought to have a suitable staff of the quality that inspires confidence and respect in the British mind. There really is eoinethine in that remarkable observa tion of Lord Palmerston, that the Commissariat is not en aristocrat service, and has broken down. It quite explains itself that Mr. Filder should find his horses left behind, his carts seized for ammunition, his ships laid up at Centantinople„ his hints about reads and depots set at nought, his winter sup plies sent to the bottom of the Black Sea, and his name villified by everybody. But, then, it certainly is rather unfortunate that the whole British army, and all the mighty interests and issues above enumerated, ssould depend on ple:n Mr Fader. The two or three thousand officers in the Crimea, for their own sakes, had better look more carefully to the position of the man on whom they depend for their lives. It must go hard • with them if they damage the credit of their purveyor. There is nobody, not even Lord Raglan himself. whom they are more interested in supporting and aiding in every possible was. If they could make him a head and shoulders taller than the rest of the army, if they could give him the voice of Stentor, the hands of Briareus, the feet of Achilles, the eye of Lynceus, and the wings - of Pegasus, so much the better for them, for they and their horses will be better fel, and will thereby be ena bled to fight better. As they have not these preter !lateral gifts at their disposal, they will cansult their own interests by investing the cninmissariet with what towers they can, and raising it t) an equality in rank and dignity with the other branches of the service. SPIRIT OF T. ( From the Times of this clay.) If the intelligence from Sebastopol which reached Vienna yesterday morning, and was forwarded to US t- r publication in , the course of the day, had been re .!eived ten days ago, it might, and probably walla, !rave produced st very important change in the !-Afhirs of Enrope. But the unaccountable inaeton of the Allied r.triies and the silence of their batteries a• the most en' ;Ica' moment of these opfratons have led the Ru-sans I reject terms in all respeet= , more moderate ti an they Tel any right to expect. and the same causes have un ioubtedly eau-ed Austria to relex in the supple she had hitherto pledged herself to give to the estern Powers. In short, the success of Lord John Russell's , mission and of M. Drouyn de l'Huya's j ,urney meinly -lepended on the impulse which might be given to these :iagotiationa by decisive advantages obtained in war ; and the only justification of the protracted absence of our Plenipotentiaries was the hope that this interval of time would be used with effect by the Allied commanders. +range to say, it hail precisely the opposite effect. .1 notion appears to have prevailed at head-quarter , aefore Sebastopol that some miraculous interposition of liplematic skid was about to nnravel this tangled skein without the ugly realities of a bombardment and an as. aault ; and, aiteough every gun was ready to open its fire along the whole line on the 3d, this operation was iterally delayed for six days, in the vain hope that some tidings of peace were -on the way from Vienna. .Ve leave the military authori'lea •to efotat ahem own ,pireon of the effect of t his dela y on the anarelt Tad , :etelit of the army ; but, politically speaking, we are confident . that this appearance of hesi t =tion and forbearw , ce -is the very worst system that can be pursued, and that we owe the :allure •if the attempt to restore peace to the want of promptitude and decision in conducting every act (.f the war. In the same spirit of mistaken kindness we learn that . when titre teary &MUTT . halt iipeiftettliar fire egainst Sebastopol, and had . crushed with the terra.: weight of their shells one or two considerable building ie the town, - Lord Raglan hastened to give ()Hers that, from what he term. , emotives ef humanity." oar file should he confined to the military defence- of the enemy. eebeatopoi is at this ineineet a fortress covering an a ,rrny, The non-combatant part of the population ha leng since left it. The place itself exists only for the aurpnse of aggressive war, and, so far are we from pr. - leasing any motives of forbearance tewards a town MA we have been seeking for seven months to destroy, • hat we should learn with undisguised satislaction that he effect of the bombardment had been to reduce it to a heap of ruins. If Lord Raglan has, indee interfered to protect the city, we can only say that he has shown his indulgence to the enemy at the expense of his osn soldiers. It is uncertain what reliance can be placed on the statements of the Vienna Presse of yesterday morning, which are the latest accounts that have reached this country ; but there is no donbt, from the different de spatches which have arrived through English, French, Anstrian, _and Russian chancels, that the att ac k was pro=ecuted with extreme vigour and considerable success. Tee fire commenced at 5 a.m. on the 9ch of April, and continued without interrup.ion throughout the night and the following day. Prince Gortschakoff (whose re ports have usually been more accurate than those of his predecessors) reports a loss of 833 men, which is considerable when caused exclusively by a fire against covered defences, and, although he states that the Russian batteries have replied with success, he does not dispute the extent of the damage which such bom bardment must have inflicted. The allied forces were in a condition to open their fire from no less than 500 guns and mortars, the greater part of which far exceed in range and in weight the guas employed at any former siege. In fact the Allies have brought to tear against Sebastopol an amount of a- tillery equal to at least five ordinary _siege trains in number, and superior in calibre. These enormous pieces of ordnance have hitherto been altnest exclusively used in marine artillery. There is no instance of such an extent of batteries, armed in such a manner, against an intrenched town, and, if any can tie placed on the opinion of Sir John Burgoyne, be is known to have expressed his con viction at Vienna that it is impossible for the place to hold mat ag,inst such a fire as the Allies were about to open against it. On this point, however, all specula tion is now vain, for at the time at which we are writing the attack must already have ended in one of the two alternatives of success or failure. If, however, as we hope, some decided impression has been made on any part of the defences of the place, and the guns of the Russians have been silenced on any front, it remains to be seen what measures the allied Commanders are prepared to take in order to avail themselves of such an opportunity, and to press home their advantage over the enemy. It is clear from the language of the letters received by the last mail that the plan of an assault was by no menus abandoned, although the feasibility of that operation depended on the effect of the bombardment. The force of the British Light Division is again reported to amount ti 3 800 men fit . for duty,- . under their galant leader, Sir George Bream. The First Division, equally well coin maimed by Sir Colin Campbell, nutnnera 4 697 men, of svhom 3,500 are effective. The N.i.val Brigade has uni formly maintained its strength at 1,000 men, and the landed Marines are 600 —equ to one battalion. 'I be effectives of the Second, Third, and Fourth Divisions of the army exceed 3,000 men each, and this force is daffy anmented by the arrival of reinfoicements and the re turn of convalescents from the hospitals. We have therefore on the spot a force able to bear an honourable, and possibly a decisive, part in this contest. We know net whether it be true that Omer Pasha has landed at Kainiesch with 15,000 Turk, for the lines of Eupateri are now so considerably extended that they require a large force to defend them ; but, if any Turkish troop• can be spared, we do not question their gallantry in an assault on such a place as Sebastopol, as they will be sup ported by the flower of the two finest armies in Europe. It remains to be see., also, what part is reserved for the fleets under Admiral Brunt and Sir Edmund Lyons at this decisive moment. Since those officers have as sumed the chief command of their respective squadrons we have heard much loss of their movemeets than we did before, and their exertions have been confined far the present to the establishment of a more effectual blockade ; but we cannot doubt that they have in pre paration measures of a more important character. The British squadron, more especially, has now been rein forced by several screw line-of-battle ships—the Royal Albert, the Hannibal, the Algiers, the Princess Royal, and the St. Jean d'Acre, which greatly augment its ac• tual force ; and after the experience we have acquired luring the progress of this siege, and since the unsuccess ful cannonade of the 17th of October, it is to be supposed that the admirals have in view a plan of attack mere effective than that which was frustrated by several dif ferent calms on the former occasion. A few days more will, however, remove our present anxious uncertainty, awl we doubt not that the British fleet, as well as the British army, will be found in its right place, by the side our brave. allies, on that great day which may decide fate of Sebast.pol. (Front the Times of this day.) Sir Charles Trevelyan has told his story, and thus far, like all the other actors in this tragedy of errors, he seems to succeed in shifting the blame from his own de partment. It is only in the intermediate line between the province of one department and every other around it that anything wrong can be suspected, and the public is left to make out for itself how so many conscientious, intelligent, and laborious officers have collectively produced such confusi"n and disaster. Various at- , counts will be given of this result, such as want of unity, want of a master mind, or want of mutual confidence ; but, without attempting to lay bare the root of the evil, and say in ten words why we have lost half our army, we will content ourselves with a brief sketch from the evidence befcre us a step towards the solution of this question. Toe service represented by Sir Charles is the Coin nisaariat ; the chief personsge• described is Mr. Filder, the Corn missary•Genei al in the Crimea, This gent'e :.an has been the sill i •ct of many an angry remark. Generals, Briga diers, and Colonels were constantly at him for supplies, awl were not always successful. His name ha: figured in many a private letter and in some of the evidence eiven before the Committee. Though our oen c-rres pondent has said kind things of him, and sing ed him nut for special approba‘ ion, the Commissary General has not been treated with uniform respect in these columns. Anyhow the name of Filder has acquired a sad and di-astrous prom nence in this history. He stands out in as bold relief as any other worthy of the war. Thoueh vague and even dull, he is a luminary that shines with no borrowed lustre. Without rank or honorary appen dage of any kind, without the splet•dour ef viotery or tie interest of d,feaf, withou'. ev n a m iitary charm tor, except in some s.irt as a female of the military speci! , Mr. Filder is a very censpicuous persena..:,e.

So, when we are told that 'HE PUBLIC JOURNALS, TERMINABLE ANNUITIES. Sir H. Parnell, in his ;ark on Financial_ Reform, saga :—" If all the loans which have • been raised since the beginning of the war of 1739 borrowedha y db r e s en froi thiis tim in e ann uities for 99 years, in eight - ea (1832) the extinction f them would commence, and in 84 years the whole debt incurred up to 1815 would be extinguitthed." In other words, the liquidation of the debt would now (in 1855) have been going on for 15 y•-arR, and the beginning of the next century would have seen the country entirely rid of this incubus. "The ohj-ction made to raising money on this plan is the Fame 3,4 that made to burrowing in stocks of real capita', na-uely, a supposed unwillingness on the part of the public to lend money in any but a low price perpe. taal stock. This has been shown to be an objection resting on no -solid font:Cation ; and it is quite certain that, if Government wishe I to raise loans on terminable annuities, it would be sure of obtaining them (alter per haps some d,fficulty in counterac;ing the schemes and combinations which old han contractors would at first (-Tito. into to thwart it) by laving an open - subscription, arld 4.lTerivg a proper rate of interest, and by not being checked by the -.failure -of the first attempts."—Sir H. Parrtvid, chap. 22. Dr. Price, in his work on Annuities, has the follow ing :—" It is ()hymns that accutnu'ating debts ,o rapidly, :1,1 mort.:azing p,sterity for eternity, in order to ray the lit, re.t of it, must, in the end, prove destra-z -tivo. Rather than go on in this way, it is absolutely nez,esary that no money should be borrowed except in annuitie, , , which are to terminate within a given period. Were thi i practised there would be a limit beyond which the National Debt con!d not be increased, and time won d do that necessarily for the public, which, if trusted to the conductora of its affairs, would never be done." Miss Martineau, in her "History of the Peace," says —" One process, which had been begun in 1808, for the liquidation of the debt, has acted well as far as it has gone ; and it is probable that when any effectual Taus. tion of the debt takes place it will be through a large extension of this method—that of converting permanent into terminable annuities—at some present sacrifice, of course, but with certain future relief. . . We may . - prepare fur the emancipation of a future generation now by adopting this method in our day; by making some increased sacrifice to pay, for the sake of our children, the debt incurred by our fathers. Mr. Vansittart wit- nessed the action of this method ; and so did Mr. Rob- • inson, his successor ; and both declared their approba• tion of it. Yet, driven hard by the exigencies of the times—that is, by the popular discontent—they had re course to a directly opposite method of dealing with the debt, burdening posterity for the sake of a very slight , temporary relief ; and they found not a few followers and admirers who praised both schemes in the same breath."
