LONDON% FRIDAY EVENING JUNE 119, 1855. THE LIGHT SQUADRON IN THE SEA SEA OF . AZOPP, JCXE 10, Sn my last letter I left off with tbe 1i its of the boats ready to attack Taganrog. , I now proceed with my account. Our arrival so cl6sefto the to , n had evidently caused 'some sur prise and great . consternation, for • the people assembled in crowds on the cliffA'and open spaces to look at us, • and we could observe women kneeling clown and praying:outside the churches. Taganrog is built on a low cliff. ' The part we could see most plainly consisted -of, two t or three churches and a number of detached buildings, which looked like i arracks. One of these was a handAome edifice; which the interpreter beforementioned, whom we brought , away from Berdiansk, told me was an hospital, and his information proved tobe Cor rect. Besides this, were some fine houses—one of them ap parently the Governor's. Below the cliff was the Custom-house, a large yellow build ing, with small buildings attached, and sentry-boles and flagstaffs were all painted black-and white, as is usnal in Rus sia ; also a long range Of storetouseS; a building yard," with some 20 vessels, and a large raft of store timber, which had probably been floated down the Don. No batteries could be seen. 01) an elevated Wound in the 'town we • could, sea some' embrasures, but they were all in a dilapidated state; and gave, us no cause to. suspect that any guns were mounted there.' When the flag of truce went on shore the governor was not forthcoming -They said lie had gone out of the town, and an hour was ranted for them to send to him. At the em?ira-, ,tion he replied to the 'usual demand—viz., that all shipping'! and Government property should.be given up without resist ance, and that private property' should be respected—that lie would not comply with it ; that he, had a number of troops in the town, and could not submit without a fight. Accordingly the two beats - returned witlftlab 'intelligatiee,.and the flag of truce was hauled down and the boats, which had been formed in along line astern of the Danube and this Recruit, advanced, our rocket boats ou the right, and the French boats, on the le- IN'Vcould see Cossacks driving back,and dispersing the crowds of people assembled on the cliff, a sure sign of what they expected. • . - At 8.8 8.8 I a.m. the first shot, an eight:inch Moorsom's shell, was fired from the Recruit ; it struck the Custcm-house and burst inside. • The Danube also fired rockets at the same building, and, after both steamers had directed their fire on it for about half-an-hour, flames broke out from every part, and it burnt fiercely the whole day. It was full of grain or other stores for theausSian army. ' Soon after our fire coin mence&the Russians,hoisted black flags on three of the most conspicuous buildings, to denote that they.ivere hospitals, and, as far as I could see, they remained untouched by our fire at'the close of the day, although iu such a crowd of building, it was difficult to avoid occasionally striking any one in particular. Large convoys were seen leaving the town, consisting of-the inhabitants driving off their cattle, removing their effects, &c. The boats advance& unipolested,• as the Russians had'no artillery to reply to the fire of our guns ; but troops were seen partially concealed behind a church and the supposed governcir's house. The boat§ poured a heavy fire of shells apd rockets into*the iong range of buildings on the beach to fire them and dislodge auy troops which might have been conce tied there, and when.they arrived within range the -Russians replied with a fire of musketry, which, happily, had little effect. Orders had been given. in the . morning not to fire at the church* bueiviien the RuSsian troops were seen to shelter themselves in them, and to fire from behind the railings out side, the orders were cancelled, and shells and rockets, di rected at the church in question, soon dislodged the enemy. The governor's house fared no better; and a large fire broke out in an adjoining building. While all this was going on a man ran down to the beach, near the Custom-house, took off his cap, waved it over his head, and gesticulated violently, until a boat went in with 'a white flag and brought him to Capt. Lyons, who was ou board the Recruit. When he first came ho was so drunk as not to. be able to give an account of himself., He was dressed in uniform, and, when he became tolerably sober, stated that he belonged to the Commissariat, and was attached to the hospital, in which there were nearly 200 men. He said that`the troops iu the town consisted of four regiments of Cossacks. On being asked his reason for deserting, he said that neither he nor the other soldiers were well treated, and that he had heard that the English brandy was very good, and that he wanted . to taste it, and requested to have same.. However, he was considered to have already had enough—at leak for the present. Another modest re quest he made—that he might be put on shore again—was also refused. I think it probable that many others would have come over to us—if they had had an opportunity—but too many desert ers are, after all, &great encumbrance. Many men were seen; while our fire was hottest,. to take off their caps s and kneel down ' facing towards the boats. • • At 11.30 a.m. there was five distinct fires in the town and storehouses, including the shipping and large raft of timber before mentioned. These were all one, the eastern side of the the promontory ou which Taganrog is built. On the western side the scene was a different, large flocks of geese were swim ming about, and herd Of cattle, standing leg-deep in the water, reminded me strougly of the prints of Laudseer's pic tures of " Peace " and " War," which ono sees in the win dows of print shops in London. By 3.15 p.m.' our object was accomplished, and the boats 'returned. The damage done was immense. All the Govern ment buildings were in -- flames, and would soon be utterly consumed. Two churches were considerably damaged, and the town itself had not, escaped. From the custom-house, which was at the point of the promontory, to the shipping in the bay'to the eastward, could not have been less than a mile and a-half, and was a nearly continuous line of flame. The governor's houi3e, close to which was another large fire, was on. the cliff above. I assume•-also,Lhat the joss of the Cossacks In killed and weiunderrniaicabdeliMisideiible. Our less was merely some two or three very slightly wounded. That it was not greater is to be attributed more to the vigor ous and overwhelming fire kept up by the boats, which pre vented all serious moleAation, than to what people might er roneously suppose was the unarmed state of the enemy, who poured in a sharp and constant fire of musketry. Had our men landed to burn the buildings without having been covered by the fire of the boats, they would have been in evitably cut off by the Cossacks, and our loss might have been serious. Still I consider the means of resistance the Russians possessed far inadequate to repel the great naval force we could bring against them, and it must have been as evident to them as to us ; moreover, that the governor was greatly to blame for exposing the inhabitants to so much un necessary misery to satisfy a point of false etiquette. Ido not recognise the beauties of a paternal Government which causes so much affliction to its subjects. There is, however, another side to the question, which at first did not occur to me. The governor, mindful of the adage that " Charity be gins at home," might have thought that, had he surrendered without resistance, he would shortly have paid an unwilling visit to Siberia, or remained as a private soldier where he was I then in chief command. The boats brought back with them from the shore another prisoner, who was taken with a musket in his hand. He was a civilian, and was groggy. Ho said that the police had yes terday issued arms to the inhabitants, and told them to de fend themselves. The gunraft, mentioned in my last letter, proved of great service. Upwards of 80 rounds wore fired without causing the least damage to the raft. It has since been towed some hundred miles astern of the Stromboli, going at full speed and in rough weather, and is now as strong as when it was first constructed. there. On landing they were met by the commandant and his staff, - diessed in uniform, and found there horses and car riages waiting. Part of them mounted, and went to burn - a quantity of haystacks on the cliff, which were destined for the Crimea; others were taken lea ealeche to the command ant's house, accompanied by a few Marines; for whom a ve hicle was alsd provided. The commandant took them round the town, showed them the stores, and had the doors forcibly opened wherever they were found locked. He caused the grain, &e., to be • conveyed out Aide 'the town, and provided tar barrels to make it burn quicker. The highly polite re ception we met with here caused some surprise hind pleasure, and a little suspicion. Perhaps, having been forcibly dbprived by the Government of •thelr property for the benefit of the Russian army, and finding that army unable to protect them, they did not cate'whether it was destroyed by us, or sent on to the Crimea. I believe that it is a novel feature in warfare 'for the weaker party to send; unasked, carriages caul horses for the stronger to drive about iu ! At all events, it is a practice highly' to be recommended. In the evening the sqttadron started for Tetnrionk- 38 miles to the eastward of Yenikale—leaving the Curlew to blockade the Gulf of the Don.: It must be remembered that the Swallow was left at Geuitch to prevent_ any communication along the Tongue of Arabat. JtTNE 7. At 7.30 p.m., anchored off Temrouk ; ; wind blowing fresh, and Jim sea far More rough than I ever thought it would be in sticl► shalkiw water. Temrduk is built, on an elevated pro montory between two lakes, and separated from the sea by a sandy spit, thirough which there• is a =Tow entrance. All I could see of the town was a church, some' large buildings and stack's of what appeared to be grain. There were also tents, and a great number of horses on the bills . , apparently a cavalry encampment. JUNE 8. . The wind and sea were Mill too high ,for.atity boating cpe rations, and the squadron remained at anchor until next day, when it was- found impossible even for boats •to reach the town, on account of the shallow water; so' part of the ships returned to }teach; and others, including the Miranda, pro ceeded to Arabat. Our foray through. the Sea of Azoif has. been 'most successful. The communication has not only been. destroyed by water, but also along the Tongue' of Arabat, and the route of Perekop and through_ the Putrid .Sea are now the only ones open to the Russians. Could we stop these, the Crimea and the, whole Russian army must soon be ours,' for the latter. would be obliged to surrender for want of supplies. BAY OF KERTCH, JUNE 12. Kertch-is now little better than smoking ruins. All the grain stores have been burnt, and these comprise most of the principal houses in the place. I give the ceiails in my next letter, as the post is just staittng. . Some of the High landers are re-embarking to-dAy, and I suspect that another expedition,,perhapslo Katfa,-Th about to come off. anapa is said to be abandoned. We arc now playing a winukTig gang.. The boats returned to the ships about 8 p.m., bringing down with them two Greek vessels found at anchor off Tagan rog, and which their respective masters declared had been detained there by the blockade. No doubt, they have made a good thing of it during the past winter, by conveying stores for the Russian army across the Sea of Azoff. They will bo towed to Kertch, and cast adrift in the Black Sea, and there by be prevented from rendering any further assistance to the Russians. The operations of the day were under the sole direction of Captain Coles, of the Stromboli. Captain Lyons was present, but did not interfere. During the day the Minna went with a launch to the mouth of the Don to destroy some vessels seen there- The water was so shallow that she was unable to reach them, and all, except one, escaped up the river. The shallow water at the entrance of the Don is to be regretted, as we are thereby pre vented from extending our operations up to Azoff and Rostoff, where it is said there are a number of gun-b , ats and a great quantity of military stores. There is a manifest deficiency in the equipment of this squadron. I allude to the want of a land force to co-operate with the boats. The vessels composing the squadron could easily carry 500 more Marines, who would prove of the most essential service, and enable us to peno ' trate into the towns, and thereby destroy stores, &c., at a distance from the water, whereas at present it is rarely safe to land in a town offering resistance, or, at all events, to move the seamen and few Marines Ive have beyond the beach, lest they should be cut off by au unseen enemy. These 500 Marines would land, taking field-pieces with them, and prove more than a match for four times their numbers of Cossacks. Julia 14. The squadron weighed, and anchored off Marioupol, a neat- Looking town, apparently incapable of offering any resistance. A church and club-house are, s as usual, the most prominent buildings. The latter seems to be an institution common to all Russian towns I have seen. They are generally very con spicuous, having green roofs. Fow there are who have seen Sebastopol and do not recollect the club-house there so plain to be seen, but so difficult to be entered. JUNE 5 At 6.30 a.m. the boats went in with a flag of truce. The Austrian consul came down, authorised to surrender. He said that some troops had left the town yesterday as soon as we anchored. As he would not consent to our destroying some storehouses, full of grain, which be asserted were pri vate property, all of which grain goes to support the Russian armies in the Crimea, Captain Lyons ordered the flag of truce to be hauled down, and a few shots wero fired from the ships by way of effect. A shot fired from a gun boat struck the church, fell over the porch, and the shot fell to the ground. A Russian ran up to it, tried to lift it, but he could not; so he proceeded to roll it away across the open ground in front of the church. In this he was assisted by another man, and they soon got it out of sight. Parties of seamen and Marines were landed, and marched through the town ; no m.lestation was offered to them ; indeed most of the inhabitants had deserted the place, and the few who remained gave every assistance, pointed out the stores and public buildings, and even gave beer to the men. There were no vessels, but some vast grain stores, the police and passport-office, Custom-house, &c., were burnt. Geese and pigs seem to be the live stock most abundant in these Rus sian towns, and today a great number of geese—some say quite 100—were brought off by the boats. The sailors chased them about, shot them, and cut them down with swords, assisted by the Russians, who seemed to enjoy the fun. After an expedition of this sort, nothing is more common than to see some largo pigs lying in the boats, which the sailors have slain with their cutlasses. The French are the best hands at plundering. It is said that on these occasions they always tell off a party for the purpose, and that the proceeds are divided. I hear that in Kertch they used to wander about the town armed, and when they found anything worth having would post themselves as sentries on the house, allow no English to enter, pretending that they bad special orders to admit no one, and, when assistance came up, would carry off what they had found for the benefit of themselves and their officers. Thii may not be true, but it is very probable. In Marioupol they found a lot of money in a cart, leaving the town, and carried off for their own benefit. For this, how ever, they cannot be blamed. In the afternoon the squad ron moved to Gheisk, at the opposite side of the Gulf of the Don—a small town, and not of much consequence. JUNE 6. The boats were manned and armed early in the morning, ready to go in, and a flag of truce was sent forward, as usual. About noon the boat with the flag of truce returned, saying that no resistance would be attempted. Accordingly, only a few officers went in, with some Marines and a party of French, to burn and destroy whatevor ClNornment stores might be // r _ `_ ~ ~ _ ~~ I OEO ( I IFPJCE SD.

Beel6ol Dtcolirt, Adjutant- General of the Forces in the Crimea, of cholera, on the 231 inst. His lordship immediately communicated the mournful intelligence to the deceased' s eldest brother, ,Mr. Sotheron, M.P., of Eaton-place. The deceased went out last year.with the staff of Lord Raglan, and through out the severe winter campaign h e en j oyed toler a bly good health ; indeed his last letter from the Crimea, which was received in London on Monday morning, was written in th . e' most cheerful tone possible, givin g the fullest aasnrance that, according to his judgment, Sebasto pol would soon be in the hands of the allies.

An official order from the Horse Guards was received at Chatham on Tuesday by the Commander of Chatham Garrison, directing that -returns are to be made and for warded to her Majesty as soon as possible, of the names of all the wounded soldiers from the Crimea who were paraded for her Majesty's inspection on her recent visit to Chatham on the 19th instant.

Invalids who are in the list, and were inspected on the formervisit by her Majesty in March 'ask:ire to have across placed aLiainsteach name.

Fier deficiency of Marine", who were left in the Baltic, has also been made tip by a draught from Chatham. They have also received their usual advance. The Retriever screw steam transport, No. 180, Capt. Taker, arrived at Spithead from the East on Wednesday night. She left Scutari June 5, Malta 12, and Gibraltar 'the 19th. She only brought six seamen passengers and a few Government stores. Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, K.C.8., Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, left last evening with his flag in the cutter yacht Fanny for Torquay on an official visit. • The Arabia steam transport, Capt. Stone, has replenished her stock of coal from the depots in Portsmouth harbour; and is pre paring for the reception of 100 horses for the Crimea. The Comet steam-tug went to Cowes yesterday morning to embark troops to convey to Southampton to ship for I foreign service. Orders have arrived at Sheerness for the Janus, 4, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander C. C. A. Kane, to be put out of commission. Her engi neers, warrant-offilers, and a portion of her seamen will be retained for future service in her. The paddle-wheel steam-ship Dee sailed from Ply mouth on Wednesday for Woolwich, and the steam tug boat Busteer for Constantinople. The transport Dodo, No. 221, arrived on Thursday to embark horses for the Crimea. The screw steam-ship Brunswick, lately launched at Pembroke, is appointed to sail for Plymouth On the Ist of July, to be fitted for commission. On Tuesday evening 180 fine young men, chiefly vo lunteers from the North Down Militia, embarked at Belfast to join the service companies of the 20th and other regiments now engaged at the seat of war. The majority of the volunteers are from the rural districts. A writer in the Dublin Evening Mail states that the adventurous lady alluded to as having paid a visit to the Mamelon Tower was the wife of Lord George Paget, the commanding officer of the 4th Light Dragoons, and one of the cavalry brigades in the Crimea. ANNIVERSARY, OF HER MAJESTY'S CORONATION. Yesterday being the anniversary of her Maje , ty's coro nation, the usual display of flags, ringing of bells , and other loyal demonstrations took place throughout the metropolis. SHEERNESS, THURSDAY. To-day being her Majesty's coronation day, a general holiday was observed throughout every department in her Majesty's yard, Sheerness. The vessels lying in the harbour were one ma's of flags, from the royal masthead, extending from the flying j►bbboom to the spanker boom end, level with the water. At twelve o'clock a Royal salute of 21 guns was fired from her Majesty's guard ship Waterloo, Calcutta, arid Powerful, and from the 'ange of small guns at the Garrison, Camber, and Pier head. The scene was most animating, and heightened by the extreme beauty of the day ; the steam-boats from Chatham were literally crowded to suffocation, and the town and harbour vied with each other to testify their loyalty on such a memorable occasion. CHATHAM, THURSDAY. The coronation day of her Majesty was celebrated in this garrison, as well as throughout the town, with great effect. In addition to the Royal salute, which was fired at twelve o'clock by a detachment of Royal Marines from the Spur battery, the Royal standards floated from their flag-staffs at the forts, also at the Military Prison, Fort Clarence, dockyard, and other establishments. The Wellesley, 72, the depot ordinary guard•ship, was dressed out with the colours of all nations, except Russia ; also the Poictiers, 74, and other ships in harbour, as well as the private vessels at anchor, were gaily dressed, which gave to the River Medway an animated and pleasing appearance ; and as the day was a general holiday for all the workmen employed in the dockyard and other government establishments, the town was very gay, and at twelve o'clock the greatest portion of the shops were closed,in order that the shopinen and others might par ticipate in the general rejoicing. The excursion train from Strood to Brighton took above 100 persons ; it was a cheap trip at ss. per head there and back, which gave an opportunity to many of seeing Brighton, at which place they will have seven hours to enjoy themselves. The Crimean invalids who are convalescent and at the Casemates did honour to the Queen by drinking to her Majesty's health and prosperity to her arms at the seat of war. PORTSMOUTH, THURSDAY. The usual demonstrations at this port and garrison of loyal attachment to the Throne were evinced to-day by the early ringing of bells, the entire suspension.,of busi ness, and of holiday folks appearing in their 1)30 cos tume. Excursion trains were put on for the occasion, and the directors of the several steam companies afforded the means of very many thousands from London visiting the garden of England. The steamers were crowded to excess, and the extreme fineness of the weather attracted thousands. The ships of war at Spitbead and in the harb6r dressed gaily in bunting at eight in the morning, and at twelve a Royal salute was fired from the shore battery and taken up by the men of war. The merchant trans port steamers also did honour to the occasion by dress ing the rigging, particularly the Arabia and Cambria, with masthead flags of our gallant allies the French and Turks. Standards and ensigns floated from the garrison batteries, as well as from the dockyard, gun wharf, Royal Clarence yards, forts, Cumberland, Blockhouse, Monckton, and Sou tbsea Castle, and from the tops of houses of the principal merchants and tradesmen of the borough, many of whom illuminated with pleasing de vices of gas and coloured lamps. The Royal Clarence gardens were crowded, and the spirited proprietor, Mr. Bennett, was well rewarded for his having, at a vast ex pense, catered so handsomely towards the amusements of the public. The fireworks were of first-rate charac ter and wound up the honours of the day. MR. CURRAN'S " SKETCHES OF THE IRISH BAR" have very properly succeeded time of Mr. Sheil. Mr. Cur ran has prefaced them with a memoir of his friend, Chief Baron Woulfe, written in a spirit of warm friendship, and a journal of conversations with the late Chief Jus tice Bushe—specimens of the talk of a lawyer who was one of the most effective conversers of his time, and peculiarly interesting from the bright glimpses they give of Bushe's most famous friends. "Altogether, these papers will be welcomed anew for their animated style, their graphic and sometimes romantic narratives, for the pictures they give of many famous men now passed away, and for the conscientious accuracy and perfect good taste which has governed the writing of them."— Examiner.

Theadjourned half-yearly meeting of the Class A share holders of this company was held yesterday at the office, Parliament-street; Mr. F. Edwards in the chair. The CHAIRMAN explained that the object of the meet. ing was to complete the business which had been left undone. Since the adjournment on the 26th of April last several of the proprietors had kindly offered their services to assist the directors, with a view to get the company out of its difficulties. They had acted very cordially with the directors, and had agreed upon cer tain resolutions, which would be submitted to the meet ing. The first business they bad to proceed with was the election of directors and auiitors. Mr. F. Edwards and Mr. J. Montague, the retiring directors, were re-elected, and Mr. H. C. Cheltenham was elected a director, in the room of Mr. Maudslay, resigned. Mr. Groves was elected an auditor in the room of Mr. Wythes. The CHAIRAIAN said it wis proposed to send a depu tation from the board to Canada, in order to negotiate with the railroad company and the local Government, with the view of making arrangements for the comple tion of the railway to Woodstock as soon as possible. In the course of a short discussion, a series of re solutions were passed, expressing surprise and re gret that the New Brunswick Government persist in their refusal .to deliver to the railroad company the debentures due in reQpect of the shares which the Go vernment have subscribed, notwithstanding that the expenditure made by the company fully entitle them to the debentures ; the result of this proceeding would be to delay the works and damage the credit of the province • expressing deep regret that the bill sanc tioning the Plan to complete the works was lost by a majority of one in the last session, through the divided support of the Government ; also expressing regret and surprise that the further grants of land which the Class A shareholders were led to expect would be transferred to the railway company as heretofore, have also been withheld, by which course the completion of the line is materially impeded and a valuable sourco of raising capital taken from them ; and authorising a deputation to proceed to Canada, for the purpose of negotiating with the railway company and the Government for the completion of the railway to Woodstock, and otherwise to forward the interests of the company. A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors con cluded the proceedings.

ADMINISTRATIVE REFORM: In compliance with a requisition to the churchwardens a meeting of ratepayers was held last night ut the vestry room, St Anne's, Westminster,' for an expression of opi nion upon that system of administrative incapacity and un businesa-like management in every departwent of the state, by which during the present war the country has suffered such fearful and disgraceful disasters, and the Warden of taxation upon the people had been increased to-an t uormous and unnecessary extent ; and likewise to petition the legisla ture in favour of administrative reform, upon the basis of thorough responsibility, promotion for merit, and efficient management in every department and office of the govern ment. Mr. C. JEFFERYS, senior churchwarden, occupied the chair. Mr. C. GEORGE moved the first resolution, which was an echo of the first clause of the requisition as given above. He regretted the lukewarmness displayed by the parish of St. Anne upon the groat question of administra tive reform, but had no doubt, notwithstanding occasional instances of local apathy, that the movement recently set on foot in the city of London would go on prosperously; and indeed it was highly necessary for the sake of the coun try that it should do so, as all must think who bad heard of the numerous cases of mismanagement and improper ap- , pointments which had recently been brought before the public. There were two such cases which bad come under his own notice, and which 'he would mention, as he could vouch for the accuracy of what he was about to say. The first case was that of a young gentleman of 16. He was the son of a military officer, and was presented to a situation in the War-office at a salary of 801. a-year. He had not been there six weeks when the gentleman who had got him the appointment sought out his father, and asked him if ho would like anything batter for his son. The father, of course, said yes, and the youth was given an appointment in the Commissariat, and sent•to the Crimea, at a salary of 4001. a-year. It was ridiculous to suppose that a youth of 16 could render adequate services for such a salary ; and yet the case came to him from a respectable solicitor who knew the family well, and could vouch for the facts. (Hear.) The other case had happened within the last six weeks. Sir C. Trevelyan went to a gentleman who held a responsible office in the Treasury, and whom he (the speaker) would call Mr. C., and placed under him a youth to see what he was fit for. Mr. C. tried him well, and some little time after 'reported to Sir C. Trevelyan that he was not fit for anything. (Laughter.) Sir C. Trovelyan asked why not? when Mr.C. said he could not even write. (Laughter.) Sir Charles Trevelyan in turn reported this to the nobleman who had recommended the youth, who only said, " Oh, then, let C. teach him to write. (Shame, shame.) Surely it was high time to put an end to such a state of things as this, which could only result disas trously to the public service. (Hear, bear.) He agreed with what had been said in different places, that a good deal of the evil of improper appointments arose from the practice of electors applying to their representatives for placel for their relatives and - friends, but believed that this was more general in small than in large constituencies. At Great Grimsby, for instance, he know of one gentleman who had got three sons into the customs there, and a fourth into the customs bore ; and it would bo monstrous to sup pose that the three sons at Grimsby were the best fitted for the places they had got there. (Hear.) With regard to the support rendered to the question of administrative reform by members of Parliament, the great body of the metropolitan members, at all events, had not done their duty in attending public meetings. So far as they wore themselves concerned, Sir De L. Evans had given in his written adhesion to the movement ; but Sir J. Shelley had not done so, and to his (Mr. George's) knowledge had even interfered to endeavour to do away with a mooting in a neighbouring parish, or at all events to prevent it from pressing too severely upon Lord Palmerston. (Hear.) The truth was, Sir John Shelley was a complete automaton in the hands of Sir B. Hall, who without doubt had intro duced him to that constituency, and probably be hoped to step into something good, as his patron Sir B. Hall had him self done. The on dit was that he expected to be made paid chairman of the Central Board of Public Works, and yet of all the men among the metropolitan members, there was no man so great a sham as a man of business (he said this as a man of business himself) as Sir J. Shelley. (Hear, hear.) After some able remarks upon the general ques tion, the speaker concluded by claiming earnest support for the Administrative Reform movement. Mr. ROGERS, in seconding the motion, passed some se vere strictures upon the conduct of Sir J. Shelley, as re presentative of Westminster. Sir John had polled more votes in that pariah than had ever been given to a liberal candidate before. He had, however, not been sent to Par liament merely to be a Whig hack, and it was with intense disgust that he (Mr. Rogers) had seen the name of Sir J. Shelley in the division list against Mr. Layard's motion. He had given deep offence by that vote to the electors of Westminster, and be would find at the next election that he could not so act with impunity. (Cheers ) Mr. BULL supported the motion, as did also Mr. J. GEORGE, who made some very severe remarks upon the conduct of Sir J. Shelley, and denounced the undue weight of German influence in the affairs of the country. The resolution was then agreed to. Mr. HAGUE moved the second resolution, urging the necessity of a rigid examination as to &Less for place, and of promotion solely for merit. Mr. DOWERS seconded the motion. Mr. BARLOW having spoken in support, the motion was unanimously adopted, as was also a petition to the House of Commons, based upon the previous resolutions, pro posed by Mr. Cox, and seconded by Mr. BAILEY, the peti tion to be forwarded for presentation to Sir De Lacy Evans. The proceedings closed by a vote of thanks to the chair man, who, in reply, expressed his regret that his position had prevented him from answering arguments from which he dissented, as, although he had presided 'in his capacity of churchwarden, he did not epee in the objects of the meeting. MIDDLESEX HOSPITAL. Yesterday the Right Hon. E. Cardwell, M.P., distri buted the prizes to the medical pupils of this hospital WtO most distinguished themselves at the examination held at the close of the last medical session. There were present the Hon. A. Percy, the Hot. Captain Maude, R.N., Mr. Michael Smith, Mr. Tooke, Mr. A. Sheddon, and a large gathering of the governors of the institution. Previous to the presentation of the prizes a report was read stating that since the la.t distribution, on the 18th of October, 39 new students had joined the medical school, making the total number there receiving instruc tion 60. The demand for surgeons and dressers in the Crimea had taken off a large number of students from the pursuit of their studies. Two had passed the M.B. examination of the University,of London, and two more were preparing for the same severe ordeal. The report ' regretted that there was an unwillingness among the students to act as clinical clerks, and suggested the esta blishment of resident scholarships as aremedy for the evil. The prizes were awarded as follows : Medicine—Mr. Joshua Plaskitt, Louth, Lincolnshire. Surgery—let, Mr. Joshua Plaskitt ; 23, Mr. John Thomas Rouse, London. Physiology-Ist, Mr. Thomas James Cooper, Canterbury ; 2d, Mr. John Tatham, Burton in Lonedale, York. Anatomy—Mr. John Tatham. Practi cal Anatomy— Mr. John Frederick Mitchell, Cardigan. Chemistry—Mr. John Tatham Practical Chemistry— Mr. John Bake Husband, Bideford. Midwifery—Mr. Joshua Plaskitt. Materia Medica—Mr. John Tatham. Forersic Medicine—Weekly examination, Mi. J. Plaskitt; general examination, Mr. J os h ua Plaskitt. Botany—Mr. Horatio Edsal, Truro. Clinical Medicine—Mr. William King Bullmore, Falmouth. Clinical Surgery—Mr. Joshua Plaskitt. Treasurer's Prize—Mr. Joshua Plaskitt. Hono rary (certificates of general good conduct and diligence were also awarded to thirteen students. _ _ _ The CHAIRMAN, in the course of his address to the students, remarked upon the loss which they had lately sustained in the death of their tried and valued friend, Sir Robert Inglis, who had so frequently presided at the distribution of prizes. There were two circumstances mentioned in the report which were very gratifying One was the great assistance which the medical staff of the hospital had afforded to the sick poor of the neigh. bourhood during the prevalence of the cholera ; and the other, that the institution had been the means of supply ing a great number of valuable recruits to the medical staff in the Criemea. He would impress on them that it was to their merit and proficiency that the institution was to look for its character as a medical school. The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the hon, gentleman for his kindness in presiding. - fuyAir ritAvnr VazZE, s--•--:.:~.

No one has less deeire than I have to en gage in a quarrel with the working classes of this coun try, or to be the means of imposing any restraint•upou them which the honest-majority of them deem to be unnecessary. I suppose 'it will be told me—Row, * then, can you go on with your bill atter the demon- stration in Hyde-park last Sunday ? My answer ie, . : ' that the meeting was convened ay a placard most assiduously circulated all over London in conspicuous' type, in which the followi ng d escr i pt i on was g i ven of the e , Sunday Trading Bill :—" To put down newspapers: shaving, smoking, eating, , and drinking, and All kinds of food and recreation for body and mind at present en- • joyed by poor people." Now, the provisions of the bill - do not interfere in any way with any publichouse,, beer. house, coffeehouse, eatinghouse, pastrycook, bakers' shops, steamboats, omnibus, or railway, nor with the sale of any of those small luxuries in the shape of gin ger-beer, fruit, &c., which are usuallysold in baskets and barrows by the poorer classes. It forbids the sale, in ordi nary shops, of articles of raw food after 9 o'clock in the morning, and the 14th clause is especially aimed at that practice, as faras it exists, so graphically described in your article Of Tuesday—the sending forth trains otjourneyrnen • fishmongers, poulterers, and butchers to mil aster to the • luxuries of the wealthy. Newspapers and periodicals are not to be sold after 10 o'clock. It is believed that those who m ay b y accident not h e a bl e on any g i ven Sun y thoouprrocaTeansvaha do` d th a ayt and periodical rea d ers of the working tthey want of these articles before the-7 are taken i n , and inhere, in fact, the newspaper ' resort to the coffeehouses where class usually go to peruse them. B ar b ers are not to shave their customers after 10. I can scarcely write the sentence without smiling, but it is their ovvn • proposition, and almost all the letters that I have received upon that subject—of those who object to that hour —assure me that to close at a later pout they would willingly submit. The ap- peals of those of this class, who never get a day of rest, are most itrgen.t.. I: vave.. sreetice some ti me a go of a -'- . ' cliiiiirl i:V 'allow the tobacconists to keep oen - shop, ' • during the hou r s th a t the public-houses c-houses a o p en, , inns- much as they ara both dealers in the sam e article. Generally speaking, the sale of all other articles is for- bid len. Now, this being the true character of this' bill, the principle being to secure a holiday on the Sun day to the „greatest possible: number consistent with the interests of the community at large, am I really to take the-meeting in Hyde Park, fiathei•ed together by the placard I have described, as the opinion of,,those. assembled in regard to it? It is manifestly impossible. My belief is, that a soreness has arisen in consequence of the Beer 13111 of last session, which has beep .visited in this manner upon the Sunday Trading Bill. I ain'told that I ought to shut up the clubs ; but, if my bill in no way interferes with any of the houses where the poorer classes resort for food and refreshment, what justice would there be in that ? I am told that I ought to pre vent the wealthy from riding or driving on a Sunday ; but; -if my bill in no way interferes .with any public veyance, be it halfpenny, penny, or sixpenny,k hat justice would there be in that ? And, as to this being an.ari,- tocratic measure, I can most solemnly declare that I was induced to undertake it solely at the request of trades people, and that it is only with then that I am now in communication With regard to it. Ido not know whe ther the speech of Mr. Villiers, made !ast night in the House of Commons on the Beer Bill, has been accurately reported ; but,, if it has been, I beg those who cry out against that measure, as an attempt on the part of the aristocracy to coerce and oppress,the poor, to peruse it, aid they will then see how that measure was abaolutely forced upon the House of Commons by the working classes themselves. With regard to that bill, a com mittee has been now appointed to inquire into its work ing, and I hope the result of their labcurs will be to place the sale of intoxicating liquors upon a more satis factory footing. The difficulty which I experience is to ascertain the real opinion of those by whose opinion I desire to be guided upon this question, namely, those who are principally affected by it. The letters which I receive would induce me to believe that, of the C 114 ., tomers, the more educat e d po r ti an strongly appi ove it ; the shopkeepers seem to be divided, If I turn to the petitions, I find 70,000 petitioners in favour, of whoa'. 40.000 are stated to be directly - concerned . in Sunday trading, and 27,000 aga i nst i t. If ' look again to the House of Commons, I observe that only two of the metropolitan members have opposed the bill, one of whom has candidly declared that his constituents are divided in respect to it. If I look to the New England States of North America, to give the an --indication of what might be expected under universal suffrage, I there find laws against Sunday trading so stringent that no one here would dare to propose them ; and when I see such extravagant misrepresentation had recourse to in order to excite the people against it, I can only conclude that it is the resu t of some sinister motive, the purpose of which would not b e answere d if th e truth were spoken in regard to it. "As to the threat of personal injury., I can assure you, sir, I have no amtition whatsoever for the honours of martyrdom; and, although I trust I shad be enabled not to shrink from doing my duty in a difficulty, my earnest desire is to earn the right of living peaceably with my neighours by followi:sg the rule of doing to others as I would be done by. But, in truth, I am in no apprehension of such a catastrophe. lam in constant communication with all classes of my constituents, among whom I have lived for many years, and scarcely a week passes during the ses sion that I do not attend some public meeting in some part of the metropolis. Most of them know something of my public life ; some know something of my private life; and, however grossly the bill of which I have now charge may be misrepresented, I do not believe one of them would lift up his hand against ine.—l remain, sir, your obedient servant, Park-street, Juno 28. R. GROSVENOR. CONVOCATION OF THE CLEROY. O Both houses of Convocation assembled yesterday morning for the despatch of business. UPPER HOUSE. The Archbishop of Canterbury took the chair. The Bishop of LONDON read a report recommending an Address to her Majesty, praying her to sanction the sitting of Convocation as an "acting" body, an d t o re move those restrictions which made it now a merely de liberative institution. The Bishop of LONDON moved, and the Bishop of OXFORD seconded, the adoption of tbd retort. The Bishop of St. ABAPH objected, on the ground that public feeling, as well as the feeling of the Church, was against a revival of the acting powers of convocation. now presented Archbishop of CANTERBUR Y sa id th e report now presented was in direct opposition to that agreed upon last July. Tire Bishop of OXFORD admitted , that that was the case, but said that the circumstances which had since transpired warranted the change. Last July the Soli citor-General was of opinion that Convocation would have to go to Parliament for such powers as it sought ; but he had now altered his opinions, and, in conjunc tion with Dr. R. Phillimore, had stated that the sane. tion of her Majesty was quite sufficient for the purpose. If Convocation sent up an address for licence to act, and it was refused, it would be an unconstitutional jee, and entirely w ithout prec e d en t. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY expressed his decided ot#Ositiop to the motion, as dangerous to the Church and the' cbuntry. He understood that the question was ,not to be revived, and he was sorry the topic had beta :Qtroclueed. The Motion for the adoption of the report was then put and carried. Their lordships then agreed to the following address to the Queen " We, your Majesty's faithful subjects, the archbishop, bishops, and clergy of the province of Canterbury, as sembled in Convocation, humbly represent to your Ma jesty that committees of Convocation have sat, and after careful consideration have reported to Convocation on various subjects deeply concerning the spiritual welfare of this realm, viz.—on the measures needful for enforcing dis cipline amongst the clergy, the extension of the Church, the modification of her services, and the reform of the repro sentati on of the clergy in the provincial synod of Canterbury. We are convinced that the full consideration of these sub jects is of great moment to the well-being of our Church. But in order that our deliberations on these, or such other mat ters as your Majesty shall see fit to submit for our con sideration, may be so conducted as to give to the Church the fullest satisfaction that in them the mind of the clergy will be fairly expressed, we humbly submit to your Majesty that the representation of the clergy in the Lower House of Convocation ought to be amended. On consult• ing very high legal authorities, we are informed that such an amendment may lawfully be carried into effect if your Majesty shall ho pleased to grant us your Royal licence, to consider, with a view to a g reeing on any such amend ments, and shall afterwards approve of the same, when submitted to your Royal consideration. "We venture, therefore, humbly to pray your Majesty to grant us your Royal licence to consider of a constitution hereupon ; and in order that these deliberations may in clude the clergy of the northern province, we further pray your'Majeety to grant a similar licence to the Convocation of the Province of York, and to sanction our communi cating with that body, with a view to uniting, und er your Majesty's approval, our deliberations hereon." , The Prolocutor was then summoned, and the address referred to him for the consideration of the Lower House. Their lordships then adjourned until to-day. LOWER _ROUSE. After prayers the Dean of Ely, the prolocutor, pro ceeded to the nomination of his assessors, which, . after some considerabl e ti me, he named as follows —The Deans of No rw i c h and Worcester, the Archdea cons of Nottingham an d S t.
