But supposing that the men do not wish to fall into this arrangement, which must necessarily be purely voluntary, although encou raged by the country—what then ? Why, as Lord PURE considers that paying it into the hands of the soldiers would be injurious to the discipline of the army, he proposes that it shall be "in the power of the commanding officer, under certain circumstances, in case of in subordination for instance, to stop it, and when so stopped that it shall be invested in the savings bank for the man's benefit at a future time." There is here a hiatus valde deftendus. What is to be done with the 6d. when neither allotted nor stopped ? The soldier is to get but 6d. under the name of field money. He may allot the remainder ; but if he does not, it may be withheld as a punishment. But Lord PASITURE does not condescend to enlighten us as to what he will do with it in the event of its not being stopped. The men are not to get it ! The savings bank is to be the penal institution only resorted to in case of insubordination ! What is the inter mediate condition ? On that point we must await further information. It, however, seems to us, that the attaching the idea of disgrace and punish ment to investments in the Savings' Banks is not acting fairly to those excellent establishments, or calculated to advance them in the estimation of the parties from whom investments are sought. On these points ,we think Lord PAMIIIRE will see the necessity of again modifying his proposals— and we assure him that he will not injure his character by so doing, for candid confession is next best to not committing a 7, fault ; and a man never lowers himself in the opinion of honourable men by recognising and retrieving a mistake. The manner in which Mr. ROEBUCK'S question, and the presentation of petitions by Mr. DUN ) COMBE respecting the police atrocities in Hyde park were met, was quite worthy of the oligarchic clique into whose hands the government of the country has fallen, being at once ridiculously ar rogant, unprincipled, and shabby. Mr. ROEBUCK, it will be seen—having stated to the House the substance of a letter from a person in Oxford-street, who, it would appear, being anxious on the preceding Sunday to ascertain the 1 news about the War, had gone into a news-shop in that street which was entered by an inspector of police and policemen, one of whom, on some words ensuing, had struck him in the arm and nearly broken it—inquired whether the Right lion. Gentleman at the Home-office intended instituting any inquiry into the case, and into the conduct of the police generally ? A plain question, de manding a plain answer. But no—the Right Hon. Baronet of the tribe of the GREYS was not prepared to assume that the Commissioners of Police had in this case done otherwise than their duty—shall we say as the conceited Tenth of April in cambric had instructed them ? Of course he was not prepared ;of course he was ignorant of the case, and indisposed to stir in it. Being what he is it was hardly unbe coming in him, though most unbecoming in one holding his place, under the circumstances, to state that "if the facts were true the policemen were as amenable as any other persons to the magistracy." A reply like this, however, was not by any means so clear as the Honourable Member had a right to expect. The consequence was Mr. PHILLIMOBE pressed the question, and demanded an answer. This was provoking. Sir GEORGE GREY got ruffled, and having flippantly remarked that he was not aware of the necessity for so doing, said if the writer of the letter which Mr. ROEBUCK had quoted "had first addressed hint, the matter might have been inquired into," leaving the impression that now it would not ! Aby no means direct, but very notable answer. So it has come to this. Administrative Reformers —look to it.

Lord PA N3II7RE has already seen the propriety of modifying the intended regulations respecting the increased pay to soldiers in actual service. He has candidly admitted the weight of the ob jections that would naturally be felt by those who were deprived for an indefinite period of the money they had fairly and honourably earned. It would indeed bear too close a resemblance to peace, refrains from inquiry into the affair, on his the condition of convicted criminals to become very own admission, because the injured party had nut Popular with those who felt that their conduct in addressed him, but the House of Com mons , i n th e Bo way merited such a slight, nor would it greatly first instance ! Why, this is arrogance, and some add to to the inducements to those who looked for- thing more, with a vengeance ! The culpability ward either to promotion or a glorious death in of the Hon. Baronet, and also of the Government, the field of battle. will more clearly appear from what followed. The The great objects that would influence a party well-known Liberal Member for Finsbury, Mr. abo ut to adopt so very serious a step as enlisting DUNCOMBE, had petitions to present from persons will be either to be enabled to help his praying for immediate redress against the police ; familia I) or to improve his own present posi- and the substance of their complaints he thought t=on.

He had described a disturbance created by an inspector of police, he had stated the name of the street ; the time, last Sunday ; the hour, ten o'clock at night ; and the name of the man who was struck. Well, what more could he do ? He asked the Right Hon. Gentleman to assist that poor man—poor, because he had been so shame fully used--to enable him to bring to justice that person who, under the guise of authority, had done that unauthorised act. He did not make general charges and accusations against the police, but he must accuse Noble Lords and Right Hon. Gentlemen who brought into that House measures which were only the offsprings of their own bigotry, without consideration for the good govern ment of the country or the happiness of the people." This was enough to cause the elastic Baronet to limit his remarks to the cases adduced by Mr. Dux- COMBS. Mr. ROEBUCK'S statement was now per fectly specific, and he would request that gentleman to send him a copy of the statement in writing, and he would immediatelyorder an investigation ! Why did not Mr. ROEBUCK present the petitions also ? Thus it will be seen that Government, after com mitting at best a miserable blunder in relation to the Sunday Bill—after having let the police loose on the people—after having powerfully aided in lowering the dignity of the House of Commons, and after having, more or less, directly been the cause of the peace being broken, and men, women, and children bludgeoned and cruelly injured, and after being warned that some inquiry was necessary, and that, without it, the peace and safety of the Metropolis would be en dangered, he met Hon. Members preferring the people's complaints with arrogance, the complaints with denial, the requests for redress with disrepu table caprice, and the warning with a cold-blooded threat, only at last conceding a solitary inquiry out of a number of cases equally supported by facts, as Mr. DUNCOMBE subsequently showed— when the temper of the House warned their leader that Sir GEORGE was going too far. All this surely conveys a useful lesson, and that is, the people are very badly governed that are go verned by an aristocratic clique, and, if they would do well and live in peace and safety, must have an uncompromising reform.

The only fault we had to find with Mr. Gibson on this his lint appearance as a lecturer in the metropolis, was such a rapidity of utterance as frequently impaired the effect that his admirable language would otherwise have pro duced, and amounted occasionally to indistinctness. Let him but amend this, and on future occasions he will insure the success he amply merit?. Loss or THREE 'LIVES AT KEW.—Yesterday Mr Carter held an inquest at the Rose and Crown, Kew, on the bodies of Jane Milbrow, aged 21, George Turner, aged 24, and Agnes Yagelman, aged 7 months. It al). peared that the three deceased were in a pleasure boat on the river Thames on Sunday afternoon last, accom panied by Mr. and Mrs. Yagelman. They were return ing from Brensford, and when near Kew, while they were crossing the river, the young woman Milbrow stood up, and the boat directly afterwards turned over. Mr. and Mrs. Yagelman were rescued, but the others were drowned. Turner, who was a very sober and in dustrious man, was to have been married to Jane Milbrow next Sunday. The coroner said it was a most distressing case • and he was sorry to say that such cases were mainly attributable to the small and frail boats which were let out, often to inexperienced per sons. Verdict— " Aocidenta.lly drowned." ASYLUM FOR FEMALE ORPHANS, WESTMINSTER-ROAD. Yesterday a special court of the guardians of this charity was held at the asylum, Westminster-road ; Hyde Wil liams, Esq., presiding. The report stated that the state of the funds obliged the committee to urge upon every subscriber and the public to interest themselves in order to obtain an increase to meet the expenditure arising out of the larger number of children admitted, and other unavoidable causes. The loss by the failure of Messrs. Strahan and Co. was not very great, the greater portion of the funds having been previously removed. GREAT MEETING AT SHEFFIELD.—CENSURE OF Go. VERNMENT.—On Wednesday evening, a great meeting took place in Paradise-square, Sheffield, for the purpose of supporting Mr. Roebuck in his proposed vote of censure on the Government. The Mayor presided on the occasion. The gathering was a great one, there hav ing been front 7,000 to 8,000 persons present. Mr. Urquhart addressed the meeting at considerable length. Resolutions approving of the proposed vote of censure on Government were unanimously passed, amidst deaf. ening acclamations.

A letter from Elsinore, of the 3d, mentions the arrival in that port of an English vessel having on board 44 of the infernal machines which have been taken up off Cronstadt, and which she is conveying to England. MARSEILLES, JULY 5. By the Balear packet, arrived from Barcelona, we have accounts to the 3d. At that time there was a general strike among the workmen in that city. Two manufacturers had been assassinated, one of whom had been a deputy, and had always shown himself a zealous defender of the working classes. General Zapa tero had ordered the rappel to be beaten, but the Captains of the National Guard could not an- swer for the co-operation of their companies. The attitude of the troops was very resolute. Another despatch, dated Marseilles, sth inst., is to th© following effect : " A rising has taken place in Catalonia. The pretext of the rising is the question of the salaries. Two manufacturers had been assassinated at ' Barcelona. The Na tional Guard had refused to march. The Captain- General (Zapatero) had shut himself up in the citadel with the troops that remained faithful, whence he sent mediators to the insurgents, who received them with shouts of Long live Espar tero FRANCE. PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING. A letter from Eaux Bonnes, in the Memorial des Pyrenees, states that the Empress is deriving great benefit from her stay in the south of France. Her Majesty drinks the waters at Klux Bonnes, and bathes in those at Eaux Chaudes, and spends a considerable time each day in the open air. The Moniteur contains imperial decrees, con firming the nomination of eight knights in the Legion of Honour, and the grant of 12 military medals, made by the General-in-Chief of the army of the East. The decree ordering the addition of two squad rons to each of the four regiments of the Che.sseurs d'Afrique has been signed by the Emperor. It is stated here, and believed, that instead of adopting the slow approach of sap and mine, as was generally believed just after the 18th ult., the allied generals have determined to deliver, and that speedily, a general assault on the works. The German telegraph brings word of an expedition to Odessa, but it is not likely that the generals of the allied armies will reduce their force before Sebasto pol at this juncture. Large reinforcements are lea'ring France, preceded by a considerable number of officers of high rank, to take the places of those who have fallen in the recent engagements. M. Hubner has asked for explanations of the passages in the Emperor's speech relative to Aus tria. The nature of the answer he received may be inferred from a prefatory • note in the Moniteur to a translation of an article from the Vienna Ost. Deutsche Post of June 29. " This journal," says the Moniteur, " is the non-official but very faith ful organ of the presiding mind of the Cabinet of Vienna. We reproduce its article without com ment." The article in question dwells upon the golden character of the four points, to which the French Government has already signified that it is no longer bound, and seeks to excuse the inaction of Austria by saying that it is for the " interest of France and England to have an ally in reserve." What the French Emperor thinks of the value of this reserved alliance is shown by his speech, which pointedly and bitterly refers to the promised aid of Austria being now due and yet withheld. We read in the Constitutionnel :—" The terms, which are now known, of the bill having for object to authorise the levy of 1855, puts an end to all the rumours which have been in circulation relative to calling out an additional body of men. The only thing intended is to vote at the present time the contingent of 1855, which will not be called out until 1856. This is what was done for many years, and what also took place three years ago. The contingent was voted in advance just as the budget for the following year, but neither men nor money is thereby asked for beforehand. What the Go vernment now wishes to .obtain, is, a return to what was long practised, and the power of dis posing at the commencement of 1856, but not be fore of the contingent of 1855. There is nothing to prove that it will call out the whole of the force named ; that will depend on circumstances. But as the Legislative Body will not re-assemble until the commencement of 1856, the Government could not wait until that time ; as it is nab suf ficient for the contingent to be simply voted, but the drawing, the revision, and the calling out must also take place. The youth of France, besides, do not fear to be called to arms, as may be seen by the table of voluntary engagements annexed to the law. These engagements which only amounted to 8,600 in 1853, were nearly 20,000 in 1854." BOURSE, JULY S.—CLosiNG PRICES. Cash. fr. c.

THE BALTIC. HAMBURG, July 3.—The Amphion, Captain A. Cooper Key, in reconnoitrin?: the newly erected works at Sweaborg, unfortunately got aground within range of the enemy's guns, which opened fire on the frigate. Four balls hit the vessel, killing one man and wounding two, but the Am phion returned the fire with such effect that she blew . up a powder magazine, the explosion of which seriously damaged some of the works also. In the harbour were lying five Russian steamers, which, however, did not come out to take part in the affair, from which it is concluded they were afraid of run ning against their own exploding machines. The Amphion got off very soon, and without any damage. The Finland papers contain detailed accounts of the different attempts made by the English ships to land at different parts on the coast. Thus ac counts from Kotka state that, -on the 14th ult., they burned and destroyed Fort Slava, and letters from `Vyborg say that on the 10th ult. a landing was effected at Trangsound, and forced the rifle men stationed there to retreat into the interior. On the 14th Juno two frigates and a gun-boat ar rived off Svensk Sound and set fire to the build ings. On.the following night they . managed to en ter the inner roadstead of Frederiksham, in spite of a very difficult navigation, and approached to within four versts (half a mile) of the town, which was occupied by a strong detachment of troops. On the following day the gun-boat advanced to within half a verst of the town, and demanded from the burgomaster information respecting the strength of the garrison, and to point out the Go vernment buildings, stores, &o. On receiving a refusal he threatened to bombard the town but they retired on th e 16th w i thout fulfilling the threat. Great as t on i s h ment was expressed by the natives at the masterly manner in which the ships were manoeuvred, and which proved that they had skilful pilots on board, intimately acquainted with the intricacies of tbo navigation. RUSSIA. THE HANGO MASSACRE. The Journal de St. Petersbourg publishes the fol lowing reply from General de Berg to the letter sent to him by Admiral Dundas, demanding explana tions for firing on the flag of truce : " HELSINGFORS, JUNE 5 (17th.) "Monsieur l'Admiral,—Before replying to the letter of your Excellency, of the 3d (15th) of June, I must ob serve with regret that the vessels of the English fleet hoist Russian colours the more easily to capture any Rus sian vessel they come across. The journals have suffi ciently made known how, from the commencement of the war, abuse has been made of the flag of truce in every sea to take soundings and to make military obser vations. The character of hostility displayed against inoffensive towns and villages inhabited by peaceful populations has been but too well proved by all that has taken piaci, in the Baltic. " On the 14th (26th of May) a cutter, I do not know from which ship, landed with a little white flag near the village of Twerminne. Not finding any troops stationed near the village, the crew of the cutter wantonly set fire to some huts and boats, despite the white flag. "On the 26th of May (sth of June), another cutter belonging to the corvette Cossack made for the Hango coast. This boat had the British flag flying. The offi cer in command of her pretends to have hoisted a little white flag in her prow on a stick. Neither the men on duty at the telegraph on the neighbouring heights nor the military post on the coast perceived this pretended white flag. It was, consequently, quite natural that they attacked the cutter and its crew as soon as the latter landed. "Lieutenant Louis Geneste pretends that a servant carried by his side a stick with a white flag on it. The soldiers and officers of our advanced posts, questioned as to the existence of this flag, affirm that they never saw it all. " M. Geneste pretends that he was sent with a flag of truce to give up some of the crew of merchantmen cap tured during the fortnight. If such had been his in tention it would have been a much simpler plan, as the Cossacks came from the neighbourhood of Cronstadt, to have sent them to Sweaborg, or to have landed them on some island, from which they wouid easily have reached the coast. " The Captain of the Cossack ought to know that the bearer of a flag of truce cannot and ought not to be re ceived upon the first landing place, promontory, or rock it may suit him to select. ".111y outposts see, and will continue to see, in such missions only military reconnaissances ; who use similar pretexts to make explorations and secure provisions. "The hostile and by no means parliamentary cha racter of this mission is, moreover, proved : " 1. By the loaded arms seized. Three muskets show by their exploded caps that the crew of the boat made use of them in the struggle. "2. By the care shown in providing the cutter with 360 cartridges, and a chestlull of incendiary articles, which are actually in our possession. "On the following day the Cossack kept up a heavy fire during an hour against the village of Hango and iti peaceful inhabitants, and a few days later, the Ist (13th) of June, the attack was re p ea t e d, t o se t fire to the tele graph and to destroy some houses, instead of going to Sweaborg to demand explanations. "Despite the superiority which steam and screws give to your vessels, they do not cease to hoist the Russian flag to seize our coasting vessels. "In the same manner some yards of white canvass have evidently been turned to account to take soundings and make explorations. " I am willing to believe, AL l'Amiral, that this is done without your knowledge. Allow me to express the hope that you will in future prohibit the missions of such pretended flags of truce. The crew of Lieutenant Geneste's boat were caught in their own trap. Seven men were killed, four wounded, the remainder wale prisoners, as the list I enclose will inform you. The affair only lasted a moment. It was impossible to dis tinguish the English from the prisoner sailors they brought with them. One of them, Lundstrom, who spoke English, was the first man killed, and two others were wounded. "The responsibility of the whole affair rests with the irregularity with which missions of this sort are made. "It appears to me that it would be more suitable to make communications to Sweaborg, and intrust them to some vessel sent there in the same manner as you sent your letter of the 3d (15th) of June. " The Cossack should not have deviated from the rule. Vessels wishing to enter into parley should hoist a white flag of large dimensions, and anchor beyond long range, and await a boat to receive their message in writing. We will never receive any other. The Cossack did nothing of the sort. It seems to me that the honour of your flag ought to exact the most strict and scrupulous observa tions of the rules established on such occasions. " The honour of my flag will never permit me to de part from them. " I can assure you that the wounded are well taken care of, and the prisoners well treated.—l have the honour to be, Monsieur l'Amiral, your very obedient servant, "DE BERG, "Aide-de-Camp General of his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias." RUSSIAN ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR OF THE 18TH JUNE. The Invalide Busse says : " We have just received the following detailed report from Aide-de-Camp-General Prince Gortschakoff of the assault of the French, on the 6th (18th) of June, on BAS- Cons 1,2, 3, and Kornileff, of the line of defence of Sebastopol, and of their repulse by our troops. "The enemy having resolved to make a decisive at tack on our left flank, opened, on the sth (17th) of June, at 3.30 a.m., a 'fire of hell' against the fortifications of the Karabelnaia Faubourg (sections 3 and 4). For two consecutive hours all their batteries fired almost unin terrupted broadsides. On our side we kept up a quick fire in return. At 2in the' afternoon, at a given signal, the besiegers opened a heavy fire against our right flask; the fire, which was now opened along the whole line of our defences, lasted till an advanced hour of the evening. "At dusk and throughout the night the enemy threw shells and rockets into the town, into the roadstead, and the north side. A steam-frigate, which bad left the Allied Fleet at the same time, fired broadsides into the roadstead and against the town. The greater por tion of its projectiles fell into the sea without touching our ships. " This terrible cannonade and incessant bombardment did not prevent the brave defenders of Sebastopol from actively repairing the damage done to the works. Despite a terrible front and flank fire, the works were successfully completed, the guns which had been dismantled replaced by new ones on every point, and on the morning of the 6th (18th) of June we were perfectly prepared to receive and drive back the enemy. "On the night between the 501 and 6th (17th and 18th) of June, to be prepared for an assault, our t roo p s were disposed as follows on the left flank of our line of defence.* r "Bastion No. 3, and the neighbouring batteries, were defended by the 2d bri g ade of the 11th division of in fantry, a regiment cf the Briansk Chasseurs, and a batta lion of reserve, consisting of men of the Minsk and Vol hynia regiment?. " In the Kornileff Bastion and in the Gervais Battery there was the first brigade of the 'Eth infantry division and the Sevsk Regiment of Infantry. " In Bastion No. 2, the Vladimir Regiment of Infan try and the Ist battalion of the Souzdal Regiment ; ano ther battalion of the same regiment was drawn up along the curtain between Bastion Kornileff and Bastion No. 2. Bastion No. 1 was occupied by the Chasseur regi ments Krementcboug and Prince of Warsaw. "The general reserve of troops who defencl-d the works of the Karabelnaia faubourg consisted of the Ist brigade of the 11th division of infantry, with 18 pieces of field artillery of the 11th and 17th brigades. "On the 6th (18th) of June, at daybreak, the enemy in a dense chain, supported by strong reserves, attacked simultaneously bastion No. 1, the fortified barracks be tween bastions 1 and 2, bastion No. 2, the Korniliff bastion, bastion No. 3, and the so-called Gribok work situate on the right of the P4ressyp ; the enemy enter tained the hope of forcing a passage somewhere along this long line of defence. "The number of troops they brought to the assault was 35,000 men, without counting their distant reserves. The French advanced on the right flank and centre, the English on the left. " The besiegers provided with ladders, fascines, and sapper tools, advanced rapidly to the attack. Despite the heavy fire of grape and musketry we poured into them, their columns advanced, reached our ditches, and commenced scaling the parapets. " But the line of the intrepid defenders of Sebastopol never swerved. Thoy received the daring assailants with the points of their bayonets, and threw them back into the ditches. The enemy's columns then threw them selves on the Gervais Battery, entered it, drove out the battalion of infantry in charge of it, and, following in pursuit, occupied the houses nearest the Karabelnaia faubourg from the Blalakhoff Mamelon to the bay of the docks. " The success of our adversaries was not of long eura. tion. Lieut.-General Chrouleff, the vigilant chief of the line of defence of the Karabelnaia faubourg, ordered up a reserve of 600 riflemen to the curtain between Bastions 2 and Kornileff. When the enemy had passed through our lino near the Gervais Battery, Lieutenant -General Chrouleff, placing himself at the head of a company of the Sevsk Regiment of infantry, which was returning from a cosrje, and taking with him a battalion of the Poltawa Regiment, led them to the charge. "These troops, reinforced in good time by fi v e com panies of the Yakoutsk Regiment, and later by a batta lion of the Yelets Regiment, routed the French, and having driven them out of the Gervais Battery, pursued them into their own trenches, putting the the rear to the bayonet. The of the Sevsk company s t r agglers in " For more clearness it is indispensable to say that - the space between which the attack of the besiegers was made has en extent of about four werstes from Careening Bay to that of the Laboratory, and forms a convex curve. Bas- tion No. 3 is detached from the bay of the Docks and K°rililefr, on the right shore of which, connected with this bastion, is the Gervais Battery, the fire of which come. manes the bay and the ground 111 front of Bastiezi No, 3." • 1 Regiment di s ti ngu i s h ed itself by its i n t re pidity (6 thin) during th e com b at . r e d " On all th e o th er po i nts of 6he l i ne m , troops, animated by their commanders, Be Bl.- ' Panfiloff and Major-General Prince 0 uroussoff,,, with exemplary courage, and drove back the age' "Our batteries on the north side, and our s which swept the enemy's columns on every which they could bring their guns to bear, cl". considerably to the s uccess of this brilliant aialic steamer Vladimir iu particular, commanded by Boutakoff, approached repeatedly the entrance reening Bay, from which point it swept the e reserves. t, The heroism and disregard of danger of theS of Sebastopol, i n w hi c h a ll, f rom the Gene g' private, fought with mos t ex t raor di nary daring ig trepidity, are above all p ra i se .
