TO the FREE and INDEPENDENT ELECTORS of the BOROUGH of EOSTON. GZNTLEMIN, Having been desired by a deputation from your borough to repre sent you in Parliament, I have resilved to comply with the request. As I have already explained to the gentlemen composing the deputation my political creed, I will only allude to the great topic of the day, viz., the War with Russia. This I have always consi dered a great mistakecommitted by, this country, and, contesting the views of Mr. Cobdea on this subject, I shall rejoice when the peace will be made. With regard to my other polkical principles, they are those by frhieh all the Members of the Reform Club are so eminently dis tinguished. Should you honour me with your slftrages, It will be my endea vour to justify the. confidence thus reposed in me. I hays the honour to Gentlemen, your obedient servant, W. IL CLARKE.

TI tare can be but little doubt that this very important alteration was occasioned by the voice of public opinion, clearly and un equivocally pronounced, and the unequi vocal and almost unanimous condemnation by the Fourth Estate of the mystery and privacy at first contemplated. The mere publicity will go far to render the decision of the New Board what it ought to be—so that there will be the less danger of the matter being shelved or got rid of without the suitable consequences to those who, if, the statements of the first Report are to be credited, occasioned such fearful injury to the national interests, and to the gallant army placed under their control and management. The origin of the Crimean Commission cannot The SULTAN, it should never be forgotten, is an ndependent Sovereign, not a Viceroy; and to maintain him in that position was one of the main objects of the War. With what propriety, then, could we attempt, during the conclusion of peace, to convert him into a puppet for the regis tration of our decrees, however desirable the objects we eight have in view in loing so might be ? Our peremptory nterference with the internal affiirs of Turkey, ;so be warranted in reason and justice, CAt2 only, under such circumstances, extend to what ob viously threatens the stability of the Turkish empire by promoting disaffection and inviting foreign aggression, and to that extent we sin cerely trust it will be unflinchingly exorcised. Who would undertake to say that, however suc cessful in a war with America, it would be our duty to insist on a proviso for the liberation of the slave population as a necessary article in a treaty for peace? Judging, however, by the question asked by Mr. Braes in the House last evening, individuals, well meaning beyond a doubt, but too much carried away by their hu mane feelings, are to be found who would have Government exact of an old Ally, whom we have defended from aggression, occasioned, ostensibly at least, by his resistance to foreign domination, what we would refrain from demanding from a humbled enemy. Yet what compari• son is there between American and Turkish slavery ? Bad as the latter is it is a merci ful provision when placed in juxtaposition with that of the United States. The slavery of America reeks with the blood and cries aloud to Heaven in the groans of the tortured and overtasked slave. It puts a veto on the intelligence, casts a cim merian pall over the prospects, and levels with the brutes the humanity of the oppressed negro, and pleads the sanction of Christianity for a system against which the New Testament is an undying protest. The slavery of Turkey, on the contrary, is to a large extent a slavery of promise, involving ligkt labour and little ill-usage, and holding out to the captive better prospects •f rising than are usually the lot of freemen.

It was after Mr. ROEBUCK'S proposition for a Parliamentary investiga tion had been carried by an overwhelming majority, and the consequent overthrow of the ABERDEEN Cabinet, and also after the secession of the principal Peelite members of the newly ap pointed Administration, in consequence of Lord PALMERSTON consenting to abide by the strongly expressed opinion of the House, the Army be fore Sebastopol Committee was about to com mence its labours, and it might prove a valuable auxiliary to the parties who might be inculpated if a report framed on inquiries taken on the spot by men whose high and unimpeachable characters placed them beyond the possibility of suspicion could be produced in opposition. But, unfor tunately for those who concocted the wedeln scheme, Sir JonN M'NETL and Colonel TULLOCH Were true to themselves. They too faithfully conducted the investigation, and too truly stated the painful conclusions at which they were com pelled to arrive. In place of exonerating, it materially corroborated and confirmed the charges against certain officers occupying a high position. , This untoward event completely upset the cal culations. The first Report was, therefore, quietly burked. It was kept carefully concealed, and not even communicated to the authorities at the Horse Guards, so that offices of honour and emolument, the highest rewards to which mili tary men could aspire, were bestowed on those whose incapacity or negligence had produced such serious mischief. It was not published until concealment was no longer practicable, and then, in plaCe of decided action, a new commimion was appointed, which was to report on the firmer Report, although with far inferior means of arriv ing at a correct conclusion ! We must now await patiently this further and most uncalled-for investigation. But the public will not be diverted from the topic by this inge• 'lions device, which will constitute another serious item in the account of the Horse Guards, and the charges that must eventually be brought against ,he real, as well as the nominal Commander-in- Chief. The proceedings of the Conference now being held in Paris are likely to embrace the considera tion and settlement of too many important subjects of dispute to admit, if that were otherwise wise and politic, of the introduction of any extraneous matter ; and under that category the abolition of the slave trade and of domestic slavery in the SuLTAN's dominions must assuredly be ranked. It constituted no element of provocation to Russian aggression, and forms no impediment, unless we choose to make it so, to peace ; while to insist on it would be to imitate the example of Russia, and be guilty of pretty much the same sort of inter ference as that which, resisted, led to the passage of the Truth, and the measures consequently taken by the Allies. The Honourable and Learned Gentleman, the Member for Sheffield, last night brought on the motion, of which he bad given notice, respecting the appointment of the New Crimean Commission. The Right Honourable Mtronet, the Member for Droitwicli, was, unfortunately, precluded by the forms of the House from moving his promised amendment. Mr. ROEBUCK was unable to bring forward his proposition as a substantive motion, in consequence of the refusal of the Government to afford the necessary permission. It was only by the exercise of his constitutional right as an inde pendent member of nfoving an amendment on the question that the Speaker do now- leave the chair, preparatory to the House going into a Committee of Supply, that he was enabled to introduce the Important subject. There could not, however, be an amendment on an amendment, and, there fore, the notice of Sir J. PAKINGTON was thrown overboard for the time being. Another oppor tunity will, however, speedily be afforded to the Right Honourable •Baronet, and 'the result will be a second discussion, in which all the members who supported Mr. ROEBUCK will cast their weight into the scale with Sir Jona. PAKINGTON, and the result may be vary different from that attained last night. her captivity as the period of her happiness, and dot unfrequently rises to the dignity of a Sultana. The mother of the present Sultan was a Georgian slave, and to the mountains and plains of Circassia Viziers and Pashas have been accustomed to look for their wives. Middle-aged women from these districts become trusted domestic servants, and the But although Mr. ROERUCK eventually with: drew his motion, he has rendered important ser vice to the cause of truth and justice. The coun try will feel the extraordinary impropriety of placing such men as Sir JOHN M‘NErr, and Colonel TuLtocu on trial for having too faith fully and efficiently discharged the important duty confided to their charge. There can be but little doubt that the object is to screen the titled and decorated officers inculpated by their Report— to permit them to offer explanations, that may avert the necessity of :feting on the serious indict ment preferred against them by the earlier Caul mission, and to t enable them to retain the high rewards bestowed for conduct that ought to have been treated in a very different manner. One important result has already attended I the ventilation of the subject, in Pgrliatnent an d i n the publio journaN. The inquiry will not be carried on in private. The C oat w ill be is open one, and the prcead• men have at every period risen from their servitude to the most exaltedstations. European ambassadors have met them in the field of diplomacy, and Sove reigns have invited them to their presence, and conferred on them marks of distinction. The slaves, by sheer intelligence, and the favour of their easy taskmaster; have elevated themselves to the rank of freemen, and the highest positions coveted by them. On the poor Nubian or the dusky child of Africa the pressure of Turkish slavery has been most severe ; and heaps of whitened bones iu the desert attest the miseries this race has had to endure. But even he, on his arrival in Turkey, has been blessed in comparison with the American slave. Let us not be misunderstood. Under every form slavery is a curse both to taskmaster and slave—an institution which cannot exist without suffering and grievous wrong, and is incompatible in the long run with the stability of any state. All thLt we would insist on is that we aro not called upon to demand in the one ease THE SUN LONDON, SATuRDAY EVENING MANCH what we would not think of doing in ; the other, though the motives for interference were of tenfold strength. This, however, by no means implies an abstinence from all interference in the matter. On the contrary, we are under a moral obligation to do what lies in our power consistent with the sovereignty of the SULTAN and the attainment of our object, the suppression of slavery and the slave trade within his domi nions. It is still loft us to have recourse to remonstrance and entreaty, and on these reliance can best be placed. Already the representations of our Government have re sulted in the abolition of the slave trade along the coast of the Black Sea, and we have but to persevere in our efforts in this direction to insure ultimate success. Turkey is not a Christian country, ansi slave holders and dealers are simply following out a long course of E.sstern usage, discountenanced by no religious authority to which it defers, and wedded to the habits and manners of the people. A. usage of this sort, against which there can be advanced no authoritative argument that will be recognised save that of its injurious operation on the welfare of the State, demands time and persuasion rather than peremptory command for its abolition ; otherwise we might see the Turkish nation rise in revolt, and have to date from the deposition of the SULTAN the renovation of Turkish slavery to al its pristine vigour. The humanestefforts must be tempered with discretion to be of service to the cause of humanity. LATEST NEWS. PARIS, SATURDAY, 8 A.M.

The sales amounted to about 8,030 hales=includin g 2,000 on speculation and for export. The Railway Share Market kept steady, both as regards the lousiness done and the prices realised. The Bank of England Returns, completed to the 23d ult., :Ire generally considered favourable—an increase in the item of bullion and the reserve of notes being exhibited. The addition to the other securities shows the active demand that has pre vailed for money, and the augmentation in the ' other deposits was produced by the preparation made tor payments on the new loan.

This vessel was expected with some anxiety during the last week, as•sho was then considered to have made an unusually long passage, if she left Melbourne on the 25th November. No particulars of passengers, or amount of gold on freight have come to hand, and these are not expected until Monday, when she will have been 98 days out from Port Philip. Letters from St. Petersburg mention that the telegraphic communication between that city and and the capitals of Western Europe is now more complete, and open to the commercial public. It is thus that the latest intelligence of the state of the English markets is known on the Bourse on the following day. The quotations there are said to be firm in the public Stocks, at the improvement caused hythe probable establishment ofpeace. Tallow and other raw produce, however, which at first rose considerably, has been affected by the low quotations in the Lmadon market, and have le ceded accordingly. In this respect, the Russian traders are reckoning erroneously if they expect that there will be as great a demand for their ex ports in the British markets as formerly, for the war has increased the imports of tallow, seeds, &c., from our colonial possessions to Oat extent, that if continued after the opening of the Russian trade will materially diminish its amount. The shipments of the precious metals during the week to Thursday last have comprised—Gold coin to Thlgiuni, 530 ozs. ; silver do. do., 300 bzs. ; silver bars to Hainbro', 13,400 On. The Scrip of the New Loan and Funding has been issued to-day by the Bank of England, the second payment of 10 per cent. being due on Monday, the 3d inst. The Sitnois arrived this evening at 6 o'clock. Her dates are —The Crimea, the 16th ; and CON- stantinople, the 19th. The monetary crisis at Constantinople had a ittle subsided. Omer Paeba had tendered his resignation, but it had been refused. Letters from the Crimea state that, imme diately after the destruction of Fort Alexander, the ruins of which now encumber the harbour of Sebastopol, the Allies were using every exertion to prosecute the mining operations for the explo sion of the Qaatirtiiiine Fort and that of St. Paul, in order that all might be finished by the 15th instant. The Russians continue to throw shot and shell upon the craft employed by the Allies. From Kertch we learn '" the Russians had dis appeared from the neighbourhood. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING. The Congress has not met to-day; it will sit to morrow. The interval which elapsed between the first and second sitting of the Peace Congress was employed not only in preparing and copying the minutes of the first meeting, but in deciding on the wording of the convention of armistice, which was to be signed in as many copies as there are contracting powers. A private letter from Stockholm, of the 19th, received in Paris yesterday, mentisns that the Rus sians were sending troops in considerable numbers to Finland, concentrating 'a large force round St. Petersburg, and strengthening the barriers (already mentioned) near Cronstadt, so as to completely close up the entrance. With the feeling against Sweden there would be nothing extraordinary in the fact of Russia gratifying her spite by alarming that Power, though under actual circumstances, there can be no apprehension of attacking her. Such warlike preparations going on so close to Sweden will necessarily require corresponding pre cautions on her parr, and if Russia cannot declare war against her she will do all she can to exhaust her resources by compelling her to adopt extra ordinary measures of security. We hear it con stantly said by the Russians, and the partisans of Russia here, that peace is certain,--that the Czar is determined on making every concession,—and that, in fact, there cannot be a doubt as to the pacific issue of the Conferences. If such be really the case—if all the chances are for peace, and riot one for war, how is it that the Government of St. Petersburg continues to speed millions in massing large bodies of troops in those places which in the itnprcbable event of a rupture Would probably be the new battle ground. We are assured by Russians, and by Franco-Ruu• sians ' that the char ac t er o f t h e R uss i an Govern ment and the Russian people has undergone a marvellouS thange within a Very short time.; that no people have' acquired so sudden a yearning icr peace, and for the works of peace, that the very word " war" inspires as. much- horror in the breast of every true Russ as it does in that of the most self-denying member of th e P eace C ongress. It is to be hopedthat the conversion is real, but it never theless accords ill with the facts mentioned. Such sudden conversions aro at all times suspicious. We read in the Emancipation of Brussels : " In the letter which the Emperor Alexander has written to the Emperor of the French, and which evinces the g reates t. mo d erat i on, the following pas sage is said to exist :—' Without repudiating the policy of my father, I wish to prove by my moderation that I desire to give peace to Europe, and you may rely, Sire, that I will, in order to attain that object, make every sacrifice compatible with the honour of Russia.' It is added that the Emperor Napoleon has replied that he entertained the same sentiments ; that he also wishes to prove to Europe that he would not foliow the warlike policy of his uncle; that his programme had not changed, and that ho would not depart from the greatest moderation, because l'Empiie c'etait ton jours la paix." The Funds op-ned quietly, but owing to the arrival of the James Baines, with a large supply of gold, the market has since become firmer. There is an absence of animation, as usual, on Saturday. Consols for money have been 91 to 911 and 91 1, while for account they hare been 911 S and 9115 all the morning. The Scrip is 1 prem. The New Three per Cents. have been 921 and and the Reduced 91; to 911. Exchequer Bills have been 23. discount to is. premium, and the Bonds 911. The Scrip is 01 premium. Foreign Securities, though quiet, are firmer. Turkish 6 per Cents. are higher, being 95 to 951, and the Four per'Cepts. are 'narked 100. Rus sian 5 per Cents. are quoted, ex divilend, viz., 1011 Peruvian 41 per Cents. have been heavy, at 78 - 4 to 791, but the 3 per Cents, have risen to 56 and 57. Buenos Ayres Bands are 57, and Dutch 2 per Ccrits. 631 to 64. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks:—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6 ; :1- 74; Mexican, 2(2/;, ; Peruvian, 78 80 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 55 57 ; Portuguese 4 per Cents., 47 49 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 101 3 ; ditto 4i per Cants., 92 94 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 42 43 ; ditto Deferred, 23-?; ; ditto Certificates, 41 5 ; Ditto Passive, 61 1. • In Railway Stiares there has been very little variation, but in some cases a slight advance is no ticeable. North-Western are 3 and South-Eastern higher than at the close yesterday. The Foreign and Colonial lines are dull. Mining, Banking and Miscellaneous Shares have been steady. Royal Mail Steam, however, are 10s. The factving telegraphic despatches have beer received here : over. " TRIESTE, Feb. 2 3.—Accounts have been received from Constantinople to the 31st.

METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS —AA the usual weekly meeting yesterday, the fo:lowing alteration in the bye-laws was agreed to, on the sugzestion of the Under- Secretary of State :—" That every new street be at least 40ft. wide,"instead of "Thatevery street be at least 21ft. wide." The foillwing plAtlemen were appointed Members Of Vie committee of Worlte and Improvements, : —Messrs - . Hail, Atkins, Collins in, Carpinael, , Capt. B arne tt, T urner, Wright, Dixon,' Coalm en D'lffanger, Dennis, Doulton, Moiland, and Bevan. The remainder of the business was of no public* interest. THE PEACE CONGRESS. The Times (Second Edition) Paris correspondent says :-- "The Congress met yesterday, and though nothing positive seems to have transpired, yet I have some rea son to believe that it was something like what I indi cated yesterday on the fifth point, and of a grave, not to say contentious, character. Some people pronounce the word ‘st , irrny,' but this is going too far. We shall attain, no doubt, the object we . have in view ; but I think sot without some struggle. " The Rassians themselves are, as I have said, confi dent of a pacific solution, and the Plenipotentiaries them selves do not discourage the hope. I believe the Russians will consent after some show of resistance to everything demanded of them, with the exception of the demolition by their own hands of Nicholaieff, which how ever they will change into a commercial port if required, and that of their ships. Neither will they refuse to admit the Consuls of foreign Powers. All that is said on the sub ject must be received with great caution." RUSSIAN DIPLOMATIC DUPLICITY. . All that we have day after day urged in reference to the duplicity of Russia, in connection with the Peace Conferences, will, before another week has elapsed, be confirmed to the letter. A very grave hitch in the Con ferences has already occurred. The Russian diploma tists could not help betraying the cloven foot, the very moment it was proposed to proceed to real business. Our readers are aware that though the Fifth Point is the last of all, it had been agreed to take it first. It was accordingly, on the second meeting of the Con feree° submitted for the consideration of the Plenipotentiaries. No sooner had it been formally laid on the table than Count Orloff and Baron Branow took objections to its being taken into consideration with a v!ew to its being decided by the Conference. They pro posed that it should be referred to a Congress of the representatives of all the crowned heads in Europe. If so referred, they pledged themselves in the name of the Czar to abide by whatever decision that Congress might c)me to. This new and unexpected phase in the Eastern ques tion has produced great consternation in Paris, and caused a further fail in the French funds. It has :also no less surprised and alarmed our own Gevern ment. They never contemplated the possibility of matters tlking such a turn. We were last night as sured, from a well-informed quarter, that Lord Cowley is expected to arrive in London this afternoon, to take the instructions of his Government on the subject. Russia never, perhaps, played a more cunning game than she now proposes to do. Ot course we cannot imagine for a moment that our Government, whatever course that of France :night be disposed. to take, will listen to any such proposition. That would be to throw whole game into the hands of Rosa* at once. With the entire tribe of German despots swarming rotted the Congress table —graced also by the presence of King Boint a, and the whole of the Absolutist frater nity on the Centinent—this country would have no voice at all Engqand and Sardinia—for there is no•use in concealing it, the predilections of France are on the other side—would, in the contingency of a Congress being agreed to, have literally to stand atone. It is deemed not improbable that the result of this iiew move of the artful diplomatists of Russia may he the immediate breaking up of the Conferences.—Morning Advertiser. .RUSSIAN TRADE. ♦uthentic statistical information from Russia is a great rarity, and therefore the particular attention' of our readers is called to the following IMPORT (VALUE IN SILVER ROUBLES).
