Her Majesty's magnificent new steam yacht the Vic toria and Albert, to complete which every artisan of the establishment has of late been employed from daylight until ten o'clock at night, was launched at Pembroke on Tue'day last, the 16th inst. In the construction of this vessel the aid of all the talent of the Surveyor's department has been employed ; and, judging from her appearance, it may truly be said w.th every possibl.e success. Her bow is a perfect wedge, h( r run clean - and beautiful, and her whole model such as to insure the greatest speed. She has been built upon the diagonal plan, and is_ consequently exceedingly strong, though not of heavy scantling. Her frame tim bers, cut from the lightest wood compatible with the requisite strength, are not, as in common cases, placed some distance apart, but in immediate contact with each other, firmly bolted and dowelled together, forming one entire mass from stem to sternpost. To these a diagonal course of planking is securely nailed. This is covered with a coating of oiled thick paper, and then there is another planking running in an opposite diagonal direc tion. On this there is a layer of thick felt, and then a final planking fore and aft. These are all bolted together and clinched inside and out, so that any movement of a portionewithont disturbing the whole fabric is impossible. The whole space from the paddle-boxes aft is devoted to the accommodation of royalty. On the upper deck there is a large dining room 24 ft. by 17 ft., glazed all round, and in the roof a camera obscura is fixed, affording a pic ture of all that is passing around. There are also two glazed alcoves from which an uninterrupted view is ob tained of the surrounding scenery, On the second deck are the royal apartments, the bulkheads and ceilings of which are all lined with thick felt, so that neither sound nor moisture can penetrate. The state cabin is 21 feet by 17, and the royal bed chamber 19 by 14, with a dressing room at each end. 'The cabins are thoroughly ventilated by means of pipes passing up through the ship's sides, and terminating at the gunwale upon deck. The launch took plane about 4 o'clock, and was at tended by a very large concourse of spectators. The ceremony of naming was performed by Lady Milford. A handsome little tool cheat, lined with crimson velvet, and containing a chisel and mallet, was presented to her ladyship, with which she severed the cord that released the superincumbent mass, and the yacht at once most successfully rushed into the waters of the haven. The following are some of her principal dimensions : —Length over all, 340 feet ; ditto between the perpen diculars, 300 ft. ; ditto of keel for tonnage, 275 ft. ; breadth extreme, 40 ft. 3 in. ; ditto for tonnage 40 ft. ; ditto moulded, 39 ft. ; depth of hold, 24. ft. ; burthen, 2,342 tons ; power, 600 horse ; diameter of paddle wheels, 31 ft. ; dimensions of paddles, 11 ft. 6 in. by 5 ft. 6 in. ; diameter of cylinder, 7 ft. ; stroke of piston rod, 3 ft. 6 in. BAIL COURT-(TINS DAY). (Sittings at Nisi Prius.—Before Mr. Justice Erie.) JOHNSON V. XINNAIRD, FOLD, WOOD, AND W. AND C. SUFFOLK. In this action, which was one of trespass for alleged illegal entry by the defendants, all of whom aro trades men in the neighbourhood of BoW, into .the premises of the plaintiff, who lately carried on business as a baker in the same locality. Serjeant Wilkins and Mr. Robin son were instructed for the plaintiff; Mr. James, Q.C. r.iid Mr. Parry, for Ford; and Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Sleigh, for_Kinsaird. The hearing of-the plaintiff's case occupied nearly the whole of Tuesday's sitting ; that of the defendants being entered upon this morning. On behalf of the defendants it was alleged that Kinnaird had made an entry upon the premises under the autho rity of a warrant of.:atterney ; and, so far as regarded the other defendants, they had no connection whatever with this proceeding, but had simply entered the house to rescue a Miss Stacey, a lodger id the plaintiff's house, from confinement in a room; in which she had been shut up against her will. After hearing 'the evidence of Kinnaird, which was remarkably clear and satisfactory, Sergeant Wilkins in timated his willingness, with the consent of the Court and the counsel for die defendants, to submit to the withdrawal of a juryman. This course, after a short consultation, was adopted, his lordship expressing his entire concurrence in the pro priety of feeling which had suggested it. DEATHS AT SOVIjAhI.

Every day as the crowded state of the ' hos pitals here increases and the atmosphere becomes more dangerous to health, the importance of increased facilities for the transport of convalescents either to England or Malta becomes more obvious. Now that Admiral Boxer has been removed from the chief naval command in the Bosphorus, it is to bo hoped that the difficulties which have hitherto been experienced upon this point may be obviated by his successor. The following short but interesting return will be sure at the present juncture to attract attention : Return showing the number of ships that arrived from the army with sick and wounded, the number died on the passage, and the number of burials that have taken place at Scutari since the formation of the general depot : Number of ships arrived 53 Number of wounded and sick conveyed from the army that originally embarked* Number died on passaget 654 Number of burials at Scutari: Total burials of all persons that died at Scutari * About four-fifths of the above wore admitted into the hospital. ± This is about one-half of the number that actually died on the passage. Not including 29 English officers, 9 women, Bchildren, 2 sailors, 11 Russian officers, and 36 Russian privates. LIBERAL OFFER.—The Governors of the Middlesex Hospital have made an offer to the Government to re ceive into that establishment 40 of the sick and wounded from the seat of war. MEETING OP MIDDLESEX MAGISTRATES.—A general meeting of the magistracy of Middlesex was held yes terday, at the Sessions-house, Clerkenwell-green, Mr. Pownall,•presiding. The report of the committee for accounts, Zec., after alluding to one ow two matters of little importance, treating upon the large excess (amounting to 14,5851. 15s. 11d.) of the county ex penditure for the year over that of the year pre ceding, an excess to be attributed to an increased number of prisoners, and a great advance in the con tract prices of provisions and stores. A county rate of id. in the pound, and a lunatic asylum rate of 4d. in the pound for the next quarter were agreed to. The report was adopted. A report was presented from the Hanwell Lunatic Asylum ; 169 patients were admitted during the year ; 30 were discharged, cured ; 13 relieved, or im proved ; deaths, 81. Mr. Cottrell said that if the parishes sent incurable patients instead of those recently attacked, the county would ere long be called upon to erect a third asylum. The report from Colney Hatch stated that the condition of that establishment was most satisfactory. The usual reports from the prisons were brought up. THE BRAZILIAN MATL.—SOUTHAIIPTON, Jan. 18. — Owing to the Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Severn having been removed from the Brazilian r!nd River Plate route by the British Government req uirin g her use . that the transportation of troops, it is g enerally feared no mail steam-ship will be despatched from this port on the 9th of next month as usua l . This, however, is not likely to be the case. The Tyne steam-ship, now fitting out at London, is shortly expected to be ready for sea ; and the Solent, e xpected with the home war d p or ti on o f the West India and Mexican mails due o n th e l e t proxi mo, furnishes two ships which may be made available. Besides the usual mails and passengers, there are about 70 tons of surplus cargo, which the company have pro mised shall be forwarded by the vessel of the 9th proxi mo. It has been mentioned that the Tay, lately length ened by the Messrs. White, of Cowes, is the ship selected to-fill the vacuum, but the length of time required to make her ready for sea renders it highly improbable that such can be the case. Owing to no mail steam-ship having been despatched on the 9th of December, there will be no in-coming mail at this port in February, LLOYD'S SHIPPINCI-(THIS DAY.)

THE LATE FIRE AT THE LONDON GAS WORHS.—Mr. W. Carter, the coroner, held an inquest last night at the John Bull Tavern, Tyers-street, Lambeth, respecting the death of Benjamin Clark, aged 58, one of the work men employed at the London Gas Works, Princes-street, Lambeth. From the evidence it appeared that after the fire was extinguished, Clark, the deceased, was observed sitting upon a stool complaining of being very ill. He was taken home, but ultimately conveyed to the hos pital, where he said that while he was running with a hand-pump to assist in putting out the fire he had struck his chest against the . heel of a ladder while it was being raised against the gasometer. The medical attendant having been examined, the jury returned the following verdict :—" That deceased died from syncope, arising from excitement upon an explosion at a gas factory, and upon a blow received,ibut not sufficiently proved as to how." The gas company has promised to assist the widow. LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY. LIVERPOOL, Jan. 18—At the annual meeting of the subscribers this morning, at.the Cotton Sales-room, a letter was read from. Mr. Wm. Sudlow, the hon. secretary, in which he deeply regretted to inform them at the present moment there was a deficiency in his accounts amounting to 2,500/. ; that he had expected he should have been able to repay the money he had made use of, but had been disappointed, and that he had no other course left, but to throw himself upon their mercy. He further re minded the subscribers that he advanced money at the early formation of the society. The meeting was imme diately adjourned to the 29th inst., to allow inquiries to be made into the circumstances of the case. THE MURDERER BARTHELEMY. —A belief is encouraged in some quarters that Barthelemy, who is under sentence of death for murder of Mr. George Moore and Mr. Charles Collard, will not be executed next Monday morning. Mr. Herring, the solicitor, who conducted his defence, is to see the Home Secretary this morning, and his lordship's final reply will then be given. Bar thelemy has taken up with the notion that he would escape the extreme sentence of the law were it not for his strong political opinions, which he has taken every opportunity to proclaim, and which have proved offen sive to the French Government, who he believes have suggested that no leniency shall be shown to him.' No thing has yet transpired which throws any T light upcn the motives he had for visiting Mr. Moore 's house, and those who have seen him since his conviction and can judge of his character believe that the mystery will never be solved.- MAILS FOR -AUSTRALIA. GENERAL POST-OFFICR, January, 1855.—The General Screw Steam Shipping Company being unable, in com pliance with the terms of their contract,. to provide a steam vessel to convey the mails toAustralia in February next, the Postmaster General has consented to the transmission 'a thoge mails by the sailing vessel Boomerang from Liverpool. The Boomerang is appointed to sail from Liverpool on the 6th February, and all letters and newspapers for New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, and Van Diemen's Land, posted in London up to the evening of the• sth February, or posted or received in Liverpool up to the morning of the 6th February, and not addressed to ,be sent by any 'other vessel, will be forwarded by the Boomerang. ' . The packet rates of postage will be chargeable upon letters, but newspapers will not be liable to any postage. ' Those Postmasters whose instructions direct them to forward letters to Liverpool by cross post will Bend in the same manner, on the present occasion, letters posted at their *aces addressed to Australia. COMPULSORY PREPAYMENT OF LETTERS, dc., FOR THE TRANSPORT SERVICE IN TURKEY AND TEE BLACK SEA. b - ENERAL POT - OFFICE, January, 1815. In order to facilitate, as far as possible, the transmis- Rion of letters and newspapers addressed to the officers, seamen, and other persons employed on board transport ships engaged in her Majesty's service in Turkey and the Black Sea, special mails will in fut ure b e ma d e up at this office for such correspondence on every Monday and Friday evening, and forwarded 'via France, and by the French Mediterranean packets, to the Postmaster of her Majesty's Forces in Turkey.

Newspapers will be liable to a postage of 2d. each, which must also be paid in advance. ROWLAND lIILL 4 Secy. 4 11ABI1T - NEWS-(THIS DAY.) CORN EJHANG.E. Moderate supplies of English wheat-2,240 quarters— have been received up to our market this week coastwise. Fresh up to=day, by land carriage, the arrivals were limited, and the show of samples was small. There was more firmness in the demand for all kinds than on Monday, and, in some instances, late rates were exceeded; but the business doing was very moderate. We had rather a slow sale for foreign wheat. Importers, however, were firm, and the quotations wore supported. We had a very dull inquiry for barley at Monday's decline in price. Malt of all kinds was heavy; but we have no further decline to notice in the quotations. There was a.moderate inquiry for oats and flour; but both beans and peas were very dell.

The mutton trade ruled dull at Monday's currency. Very few calves were on offer, and they changed hands at high rates, the firmest veal being worth 6s. per 81bs. There was Only a limited inquiry for pigs, at late rates. Mulch cows were dull in sale at from 141. to 191. each, including their small calf. Per 81be to !hilt the ottitle. s. d. u. d. et. d. s 41.

March Winds and April Showers. By " Acheta' Lo ivell Reeve. The former work of this author, " Episodes of insect Life," will be remembered with pleasure by :all its readers. The present volume is in much the trAne style, displaying the same happy combination (ce scientific lore with the graceful fancies of the , writer. His love of nature is very great, and ho :argues strongly on the pleasure lost by those who, either from accident or ignorance, are prevented from enjoying and appreciating country sights and !sounds. His great aim is to awaken an interest in the wonderful minutim of nature, to direct the at tention of the merely superficial observer to the marvels contained in a withered leaf, or bidden by a wayside hedge, or under a mossy stone. The work rambles from the flowers of the sea, to the dor snaouse in its winter bed, and the wonderful con structions of the insects of air. It gives the reader ain insight into geology also, in a chapter under the title of a Rummage in the Stone Cabinet, and traces the insect remains that have been discovered rap to a surprisingly early period in the formation of tho earth. The chapter headed " Late Awakings," ingeniously compares to a dormouse aroused from hit; winter slumber the idle or apathetic mind wl Lich is suddenly startled into recognising the op portunities it has lost. " The Two Elm Trees" is a lit le village tale, which it is to be hoped - will deter ill juvenile readers from the cruel excitement of bir d's-nesting.

Hogg. _ °This very interesting and well-written tale is _ _ I:ep.rinted from the pages of Hogg's Instructor, vhere it appeared under the title " Love in Idle less." A. spirit of melancholy pervades it, but the reader is charmed and interested by it. It is writ ten in a high and pure spirit, far removed from the ordinary sentimentalism of love stories, and show , jug forcibly the wrong of " doing evil that good should come," that dangerous and bewildering doctrine which has enticed so many into the crooked ways of deceit and falsehood. The au thoress displays much talent in the conversations, and if the faults of a young author may be detected, if some of the characters are not altogether natural, it is easily fprgiven in the grace of the style, the high moral tone and the pathos of the story. It shows how a hard and self-confident nature, mis led by a false ambition aid devoted to the ex altation of self, is softened by tribulation, and awakened to the sense of his m i s t a k es under the influence of a sudden and overwhelming affliction. It also shows how she who suffered herself to act against her conscience and her heart, misguided by a short-sighted prudence and mortified affection, was forced by the subduing touch of Death and Time, to see how far she had also wand ere d f rom the aightforward path of Right. This is the Double Error, as exemplified in the careers of selfish ambition and mistaken self-sacrifice. The authoress gives much promise of future excellence in the truly feminine and domestic style of writing, and we trust her works will continue to possess the I tame high-toned principle, unalloyed by exaggera tion. or aentintentality,• which they at present pOSSeSS. Dashwood Priory. By E. J. May. Routledge. This little book is meant for the young, and may prove of use to those engaged in school and college pursuits. It may occur to some that it would have been better to have omitted the disputes and dif ferences of Trevanion and his sect at the end of the book, as they can be of no good to the young to hear of, and may tend to bewilder their minds. With this exception the story is well done. It belongs to the profitable rather than to the pleas in. The account of Vernon is very sad, but also very natural. So many go on like he did, putting away all thoughts of the future till too late for preparation, "And to the mercies of a moment leave The vast concerns of an eternal scene." Louis Mortimer is a very amiable character—rather too weak and vacillating ; but he rectified that fault in some degree as he pursued his course. From the simple style in which it is written, much may be gleaned from the perusal of this story for the use of the young in every-day life. Webster's Royal Red Book. This useful little volume has now appeared for the present year. It is a miniature directory, con taining, besides the street guide, the list of the Houses of Parliament, the bankers, the Govern ment offices, the law courts, the post-office, the hackney carriage fares, the income-tax tables, aul all such kinds of information, for the low price of 3s. 6d. It is a highly-useful work of reference, while its long-established and well-known character insures its authenticity. HORRIBLE .MASS ACRE AND BURNING OF A BJITISH SHIP. Information has been received of a tragical occurrence on board the British [ship Berenice, the master of which (Capt. Cundy), with his wife, chief mate, and others have been massacred by the crew, who afterwards set fire to the ship and destroyed her, to prevent detection. The Berenice sailed from Shanghai on the 15th of July, 1852, with a cargo of tea for Sydney. Her crew, shipped at Singapore, consisted almost entirely.of men from different parts of Netherland India. During the voyage two of the sailors, believing there was gold to a large amount on board, spoke of it to their com rades, and a plan was forthwith concocted for taking possession of the vessel (then near Anger) and as sassinating the Europeans who were on board. The ringleaders, as far as could be proves), were the Serang, or boatsman's mate, known as " Alio," and seven of his tribe. Mr. Robarts, the mate, was enticed to the fore part of the ship by Alio, where he was instantly murdered. Capt. Cundy, the commander, who ran to his assistance, met with a similar fate, as also did three seamen, who interfered to save the captain's life. Mrs. Cundy was taken from between decks, whither she had flown for refuge, and thrown overboard. A French pas senger, name unknown, who had joined at Shanghai, was not found on board, neither were three Bengaloes and Amboyna mea who were among the crew. They must either have thrown themselves into the sea, or have been thrown overboard by others. This t r agical scene completed, the murderers threw the bodies overboard, washed away all traces of blood, and then commenced searching for the gold supped to be on board. All the money on board, however, consisted of about 100 florins and 40 Spanish dollars. The plunder was equally divided by Alie, and it was agreed among them to set sail for Tauban, there to abandon t he vessel, after h av i ng set fire toit.by The ship ga i ni n g his Tagal, which was t a k en f or Tau ban Alie party, she was set on fire, and they took to the boats. Several were left behind, and were buried in the vessel. Finding their mistake on gaining the heights of Tagal, they were compelled to get rid of most of the plunder by throwing it overboard. They, how ever, iby their plausible story deceive he authorities of the place, who showed them every feeling of compassion, and provided them with means. Afterwards the disco very of the wreck of the burnt ship, and the bodies of some of the crew, excited suspicion ; and after a search ing investigation before the magisterial officers of the place, the whole of the diabolical affair was elicited by some of the suspected confessing to the charges brought against them. The ringleaders, nine in number, were brought to trial in September last, when the entire of them were found guilty. Five of the prisoners were sentenced to 20 years' banishment, and the others were executed on the 13th of last October, in the public square in the principal part of Tagal. The things which during the trial helped to convict the prisoners, were a gold watch and chain, a n d some ornamen t s an d c l o thing belonging to the late captain and his wife. REFUSAL OF BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES.—When the crew of the Nile, 91, was paid off can Monday, it was with great difficulty that some of them could be per suaded that Bank of England paper was a legal tender, and there was a decided objection to accept a 5/. note as the value of five sovereigns. Many of them first took the bank note to be a ticket of leave, of which they are granted 14 days. Litranger still, these men were from the "far north," f:EWPAT'EIt -.FRENCH- AND ENG 4 The success which has atkillikertitrttelliii%liT(P-ee" rations of the trench GovefiliDe n t inn e k ceeulletond presentg =eh - -contrast to the confusion and loss. which have marked the monetary &bblines of our own Chan celtenteCthe Exchequer, that'Nve trust Mr. Gladstone will have the perception to apprehend the phenornera which he cannot avoid seeing, and will have the good sense to take a leaf out of a book which contains SO lunch that is useful and practical.

Mr. Gladstone may pooh-pooh these arguments. He may put them aside as views derived from a long entertainment of a policy abrogated by a great national movement, and he may re fer with a satisfaction not unreasonable to the admiration With which a great portion of the country received the able and well-arranged speech in which, on his accession to office, he exposed his financial notions, and to the ease With which, in the formal shape of legislative enactments, he passed them through the House of Commons. In short, though we do not in the least pretend to any in formation with regard to his intentions, we shall not he in the least surprised to find that immoveable faith in himself, and in the ascendancy of the Peelite star, in duce Mr. Gladstone-to produce to Parliament in 1855 a continued adherence to the financial ideas of 1853 and, 1854. Now, as although in the event of its appearing neces sary for the due conduct of public affairs, after the dis cussion which must necessarily take place es the meet ing of Parliament, that there should be a change of Ad ministration, we would by no means advise the country to shrink from the prospect of any temporary inconve nience which• might be occasioned by it ; yet, as we have no desire to see such an event forced by gratuitous blun dering, we would strongly recommend Mr. Gladstone, before he presumes upon the successes of the past afford ing a safe criterion of the prospects of the future, to con sider the vast difference between that past, the actual present, and that probable future which the lapse of no more than two or three months will make a pre sent. In the period which has intervened between the acceptation of Mr. Gladstone's financial notions and the present time, a very wide and remarkable difference has been created, both in the commercial circumstances and position of this country, and in the feeling and opinions of her people. When those notions were propounded and found favour, our produc ing classes were driving a largo and increasing business, and our consumers were buying at low rates. We had large custom abroad—moderate cost of living—and good wages at home ; and we believed that, with the income tax and abolition of Customs duties, we had bought a commercial and fiscal system, by the aid of which our Chancellors of the Exchequer would be able to regulate , prices, and secure for the public that El Dorado of poli tical economists—the cheapest markets to buy in, and the dearest to sell in. These are not the circumstances which characterise the beginning of the year 1855. The trade that looked so large, and promised such further increase, has collapsed into something less than its real proportions ; profits are small and hardly earned, while cheap markets have vanished altogether. There is no such thing as a cheap market for the English consumer in the civilised world, whether it be for the articles which he must have to keep body and soul together, or for those accidents - and contingencies of life which social progress has converted from luxuries into neces saries. Feelings and opinions have undergone no less a change than circumstances. People see the folly of having accepted a financial scheme, the success of which was absolutely dependent upon events over which its author could have no control, and upon the condition and prospects not only of this kingdom, but of all the countries with which it is connected remaining undis turbed by war or other accidents during the seven years required to work it out. The people are aware, too, that although we have given tree ports and free naviga tion, we have failed in obtaining free trade. They have gauged at considerable loss the consuming power of the United States, and of our growing colonies, and our commercial nen are now aware that there is no longer any prospect of either this Government, or of the system upon which it has taken its stand, opening any new channels of trade. Above all, the masses of the people have become awake to the great fact, that the true policy of a nation is to produce as much as possible of the requirements of her population within her own, boundaries, and with this conviction we cannot doubt that we will demand of the Government that all classes shall be enabled to produce, at the least possible cost, and under the least possible pressure. We would strongly urge the Chancellor of the Exchequer and his colleagues well to weigh these changes in circumstances and in opinion before they determine upon the financial measures of 1855.—Morning Post. PBOBABLE "ATTENTIONS •OF .RUSSIA. (From the Constitutionnel.) On the one hand, the Czar demands the opening of conferences, which, however, cannot commence until after the nomination and arrival of an Ottoman envoy ; on the other, he concentrates several armiea on the Austrian frontiers, and Cossacks have already returned to the Turkish territory. Are we to believe in the diplo matist who solicits peace, or in the general who recom mences war I There is, however, no doubt Its to the offen- ye return attempted by the Russian troops. The news has arrived from so many agents, placed on different points, that any hesitation on the subject would be a denial of evi dence. Now, we ask, is it seriously p oss ibl e t o pl ace f a ith in the pacific assurances of a power which has itself taken care to warn Europe against the sincerity of its eventual concessions, and which, by menacing anew the Ottoman territory, whilst the preliminaries of a peace which it solicits are pending, has very nearly provoked an extension and aggravation of the war, by forcing the Austrian troops stationed in the principalities to take pait in it ? In virtue of the treaty of the 14th June last with the Porte, Austria having caused her troops to occupy the principalities of Moldavia and 'Wallachia, has undertaken to defend their frontiers against any return of the Russian forces. Russia, then, by returning anew to the Turkish territory, would herself create the even tuality which must render Austria a belligerent power. It is evident that it would be puerile to pretend to make a subtle distinction as regards -the new aggression of the Russians by saying, that to re-enter tho Debrudscha is not to invade the principalities. The integrity of the Ottoman Empire is the primitive object of all the treaties between the Porte and its allies, and to in vade the Turkish territory, properly so called, is not a less grave fact than to invade the principalities. Com mon sense says so, and all the allies of the Porte, with ,out exception, think so. On the other, supposing the movement of Russian troops not to place in question, the political loyalty of Austria it would evidently do r i p with its military prudence. If the Russian armies which are stationed on the Pruth ware, after baring crossed the Lower Danube, to advance and menace . Bulgaria, it would evidently be impossible for the Aus trian troops to remain inactive in the midst of such me nacing positions, and to allow themselves is be surrounded without firing a shot. If the security of the Ottoman empire were not at stake, th. 3 safety of the Austrian army would be etnperilled, and if General Coronini were not so resolved as he is to defend the Sultan, he would be obliged to defend himself. This, we may be sure, will be, infallibly true if the movement of the Russians, which bad been in turns announced, denied, and confirmed, be anything else than an inconsiderable affair of advanced posts. It . could not have suited either the Porte, or' France, or England to have left the line'of the Danube., and that of the Balkans without troops, in order to be more free in the Crimea, if those lines were not seri ously protected by the 00-operation of the Austrian forces stationed in the Principalities. No one, then, will be surprised to learn that, whilst this opinion was formed at London and Constantinople, it was at the same time and spontaneously formed at Vienna. The aggressive movement of the Russians was everywhere judged at the same time in the same way ; and if it be renewed, if it becomes anything else than an insult of no consequence, it will be promptly and energetically re pressed by the Austrian troops. Here, then, we have a new complication excited by Russia at the very moment at which she accepts the bases of pacification, and de mands the opening of conferences for re-establish ing European accord. LICENSED VICITUALtERS' ASYLlTM.—Yesterday even ing the usual annual ball in aid of tb . e endowment fund of this institution was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street. The large room was most tastefully decorated and brilliantly illuminated especially for the occasion, and no precaution was neglected by the corn• mittee that could possibly add in any way to the éclat with which this popular ball usually passes off. The re freshmen; arrangements were conducted on a far more liberal scale than usual, and nothing was wanting that could in any way conduce to the comfort of the visitor ; notwithstanding the extremely unfavourable state of the weather, we seldom witnessed assembled in these rooms a larger or more respectable and at the same time a gayer company. The dancing commenced at an early hour is the evening, and was continued with as much spirit as the crowded state of the room would admit, until an ad. vanced hour this morning. Adams's quadrille band was in attendance, and played, during the evening, all the best and most fashionable dance music of the season. Mr, F.
