Count CAVOUR, on Tuesday, in the Chambers at Turin, made two important speeches; one of them has reached us at full length, which our readers saw in The Sun of last evening—the other has only reached us in the form of a telegram, but it is to England of more direct importance than the first. It was probably but a brief reply to an " interpellation," and was " a formal denial to the rumours of an intendect'eession of the island of Sardinia to France." Iris painful to remember that a similar denial p;entiathe cession of Savoy and Nice ; our Govern •- • this country must therefore take it for Nth I`.`P. ,Borth. The word " formal" is currently 'zi§ed iq fool- senses very different indeed in regard to a inat 'like this, and but too happy shOld we be to accept the most favourable one. After all that hat occurred, we must think _that sopao membeti of weight on these questions, should ask-our Fo;:ign Secretary whether he has informed Count Cityoun, that Eng land could not tolerate the alienation of an Italian island of such maritime importrince, to a great Mediterranean Power like Frarice. It will be too late when the evacuation of Rine has been pur chased by such an ignominious surrender, and one which England must regard as desttietive of the established balance of naval power in the Me4her ranean. If we are not mistaken, English diPfo-- matic action ought to be prompt, urgent, and un- , bending— we m i g ht sa y i mpera ti ve . The longer speech which preceded related to Rome, whence arises the danger we fear. Had France the right there of fair conquest in war, and of long prescription, like that of England at Gibraltar, an exchange of territory might be fair. ' We might use Gibraltar, if we pleased, in nego tiating with Spain for the cession of Cuba. But the French had no cause of war with Rome, ank; went there by an act of the most atrocious anc . .. cruel inconsistency, to put down liberty ialtir independent sister republic which had not lione'• the slightest wrong to France. The occupatiO4 of Rome by France is both in its inception and continuance a greater crime against the law of nations and the principles of nationality than the occupation of Venetia by Austria. Austria has at least solemn treaties to allege. France has nothing but violence. It is true, the pretence is the independence of the Pope—which means the enslavement of his subjects. For the French Government has again and again confessed the Papal Government to be intolerable, and has counselled Reform, only to have her counsels laughed at, because the crafty ecclesiastics well knew that the real reason for the French occupation of Rome was originally the sup pression of freedom and the gratification of national vanity. It tickled French ambition to be mistress of the capital of the ancient world, and of the ecclesiastical capital of the Popedom. Ambition alone keeps the French army in Rome ; but the new kingdom of Italy must not be re quired to sacrifice her territory to compensate France' for renouncing persistence in a crime. And, if the main drift of Count CSVOUR'S speech on the subject be, really, the exponent of his policy, he will not do it. His arguments aro as lucid, and as conclusive as those of his former speech, from another point of view, on the subject :—" The other Chamber has admitted," he observed, " and the honourable senator has concurred with it, that under present circumstances we cannot employ other than moral means. To arrive as conquerors in a city which is the seat of the Catholic religion Would be a wrong on our part, and would damage the cause of Italy." It was in this character, how ever, that the French entered Rome; conquerors, at least, of the 'people; but conquerors for their Prl nce-Priest, beneath whose foot they forthwith placed tt4 ' necks 'pi& deeply wronged Rornana. What Count CAN - ORR means, is, of course, that for the Ltalian, to enter as conquerors of that ' strange celitaur-lie being, the temporal POPE, would, as thinp do more roinhief than good. Bat, proceed: e te , show at length, that while some Eicts of the •p as . t ,tn , T explain, and, perhaps littleAireeablin attitude- of excwe a th e Coart °r is g nothing in , IcriOUS 8113 po litical 41 '!"-• re. !l < dal' sti " B to justify it. ,‘ It is of gr eat r l r n - PP17441 h.sa.s-8, that R ome should cease t o ho the headquart ers of the conspiracies, of Italy and liberty , the centre of all e and the starting point of all the emissaries w h o co me to spread disorder and violence throughout our provinces," and be holds that Naples will not b e thoroughly quieted till the Rowan question is settled. England, he observes; wAti sixty Tons in getting rid of factions and conspiracies after 1688.1 He does not anticipate that so long a time will 'be needed to quiet Italy, because the Italian movement is so deeply stamped with the impress of na tionality. He hopes that simple and legal measures will be sufficient, but he repeats—" The best means of arranging everything is to settle the question of Rome, the headquarters of opposition and dis turbance." But according to his own view, which is that of converting the Catholic world to the acceptance of Church independence, as a compensation for the surrender of temporalities, he must have a long task before him. We wonder when Messrs. BOWYER, CULLEN, and Co. will agree with the first sentence of the. following extract from the Count's speech :—" The principles proclaimed by us, the separation of the church and the state—the liberty of the church—have been favourably received by all parties who are inspired by liberal senti ments, even by those who are at the same time in fluenced by Conservative ideas. That is a great step actually made, But that is not enough ; it is not merely liberal opinion, but the enlightened part of the Catholic world that must be brought round to our views. If some distrust, some reluctance is exhibited on that side, we ought not to be alarmed at it. Liberty cannot be accepted without hesitation, without fear by the Catholic world; for, in truth, it is the first time that a great Catholic nation has addressed itself to the church, with the offer of full and entire liberty in exchange for its temporal power. Never before has the Church found itself in this situation." He then kindly goes on to excuse the fears of the ecclesiastics, to show that even in Protestant coun tries religious liberty is not complete, and to palliate what in his heart he well knows to be but selfish priestly ambition; still he adheres to his point, that separation from and independence of the State is the true position for the Church, that Italy is a most Catholic nation, and will cherish that independence, and that it will strengthen the position of the Catholic party. "We shall soon," he said in conclusion, " win over the best part of the religious -world to recognise the loyalty that inspires us. It will be recognised that what we propose is the only means of ensuring the legitimate influence of the church in Italy and in the rest of the world. In a short time, I hope, voices will rise from the midst of catholic society and will tell the Pope : ' Accept the terms which liberated Italy offers you, for they restore freedom to the church and add to the lustre of the Holy See; accept these terms, and the Italian na tion, while completing the work of its liberation, will remain the most faithful of all to the genuine spirit of religion.' " We have only to add, let the Italians but please themselves, and they will please England. The POPE may be as great a spiritual potentate as men's belief in the magic powers of a fellow-man can make him ; that is no business of ours. We &Eire to see Italy possessed of her lawful capital, and our -only business is to see to it that she does not purchase it by making the Mediterranean a French lake. Another of those " Little Wars" which were the particular abhorrence of the Duke of WELLINGTON, England has now upon her hands. That wretchedly fluctuating and prolonged conflict, namely, between a small body of the forces of the British Empire and swarms of the naked aboriginal New Zealanders. During a considerable period past the mails from the opposite side of the globe have brought home to us tiditigs of the most uncertain variation from the seat of war among our antipodes. Now (strange to tell) the English soldiers have been for a while worsted by the Maoris, although the serried ranks of the former have been confronted only by a bar barous horde of savages armed for the most part with rude stakes and tortuous boomerangs. Now the success (! ) has been with the Europeans, and the tribes of New Zealand arrayed against us have been driven back with some slaughter and much confusion. In either • ease the result we can hardly induce ourselves to Y4ard as otherwise than discreditable. When rep4A though but for a moment, our repulsion has. haeh nothing less than ignominious. When conciU4rors, our conquest has been of a kind that it wol4 be hardly less than shame to exult iDisciplined troops, however inferior in , • respect of numbers, when opposed to a race of ignorant-savages, can scarcely take credit to them sekes fer beating back with rifle and bayonet a mob .afiAlaoris hurling stones and brandishing boome , Frangs. The contest we all recognise upon the instant as so entirely unequal, that we feel the ne cessity that it ought in reason to have been evaded, by any means almost, through the agency of mere diplomacy. Those who might, upon the first blush, find themselves disposed to laugh to scorn the nation of anything like a diplomatic test being ap plied in this way to the aboriginal New Zealanders can know but little of the history of the rise and development of our power in those antarctic regions, in the southern islands of the Pacific and the Atlantic, in New Zealand, in Van Diemen's Land, in Australasia. Fighting, actual bloodshed between the English and the aborigines in those regions, from the period of their first discovery until now, has been, not the rule; but the exception. Some of the few more sanguinary outbreaks on the part of the savage population found there by the Euro peans, have certainly been signalised by dreadful and world-famous deaths, such, for example, as that revealed, to the horror of all Englishmen afterwards, in the lamentable assassination of Cap tain Coot: at Otaheite—but these incidents, again, we repeat, have been unquestionably not the rule, but the exception. Our authority in Australasia, for example, has been based upon the awe inspired there among the natives by our (to them) astound ing civilisation. The early annals of our vast and various antarctic colonies, are for the most part un tarnished by any evidence of ruthlessness on our Part whatsoever. The leaves of the opening pages of that history of England's power at the anti podes, while blurred occasionally it may, be here and there with tokens of undue severity, cannot possibly be described with truth, as most conqu es t s are alone to be described at the outset, namely, as bloodstained. We can look back without a sense of national remorse to the record of the build ing up of our dominions yonder in the chief part of that wide and scattered portion of the habitable globe, known as Oceania. It is our recollection of this fact in the narrative of the foundation of that portion at least of our enormous- colotr!al empire, which constrains us to come to the conclusion, almost as one might say instinctively, that our recent and still continued war in New Zealand, our late and even now unended struggle with the Maoris was at the first indisputably avoidable. The official documents brought forth in the form of a notable Blue book, relating exclusively to this little war in New Z!3aland, confirms this in- tuitive impression upon a mature consideration of the circumstances in which that same miserable little war originated. It is not possible to glance retrospectively through the incidents which brought the British forces and their savage antagonists into collision, without perceiving quite plainly that from first to last, there were no adequate efforts T.HE SU N,IILONDON,I SAT URDAY ;EVENING, APRIL 13, 1861. made upon our side, upon the side from which all I such efforts ought to have emanated, no sufficient efforts whatever to bring about a reconciliation of difficulties. Precisely, as Mr. C. FORTESCITE started forward the other evening, with a view to the in stant vindication, in toto, of the Governor (Governor BROWNE), from the charges directed against him, or rather against his policy by Sir him TRE LAWNY and Mr. SELWYN, do we find that the Governor (Governor BROWNE) started forward in furtherance of the white man's plea, there in New Zealand against the tawny aborigines, deter mined to withstand in toto the claims advanced by the native population, especially the Maoris, and to maintain through thick and thin at the flash of the rifle, and at the point of the bayonet the absolute supremacy of the English Sovereign. Granted the necessity for in sisting upon the maintenance of that supremacy of our Government over the inhabitants of New Zea land, whether Europeans or aborigines : still those savage natives, whose regions our arts and sciences are now reclaiming from barbarism to civilisation, have theirown rights, their own inalienable rights— rights particularly of a territorial character—rights that ought, in reason and in justice, to be strictly and honourably recognised. It is because, how ever, we cannot but think that in the out set of this quarrel with the Maoris, we dealt with those inalienable rights of theirs rather too carelessly, and cavalierly sweeping them, for the most part, altogether out of consideration, that we are disposed to look with more even than our usual repugnance, under similar circumstances, at this the last of England's little wars, this wretched struggle with the infuriated tribe of the Maoris. Never was legal perplexity greater than that in which the Emperor of AUSTRIA now finds himself. He appeals to the law courts of England as King of HUNGARY. The illustrious defendant meets him with proof that he is not King of Ilux- GARY. And though it is said that an English Judge will make short work of it by refusing to go into the question, it would seem that public opinion will not accept such a rough and ready settlement of a point of international law against a noble exile. It would surely be a monstrous hardship, when the whole question turns on, who is the supreme authority in Hungary—when one party says " I am;'" when .the other party replies, " You are not, but I am; and to me, therefore, belongs the power to do what you invoke English law to restrain." It would be injustice, indeed, if de facto possession were made a reason for rejecting a de jure title. The de facto possessor of stolen goods would, by such a principle, be the man entitled to deal with them as proprietor. That our Government has—we wish we could think through ignorance or carelessness only—recognised FRANCIS JOSEPH as King of 'January, if indeed it has done precisely that, is no more proof that he is so than the purchase of stolen goods from a thief by a third party would prove that theothief was their legal proprietor. Very lately the act of abdication by which poor FERDINAND V. renounced the Imperial throne was published here. It was in that act apparent how carefully the poor weak man guarded against a renunciation at the same time of the Hungarian crown. The act left him the legal King of Hungary. The Hungarian Diet only learned the fact of his abdication from the newspapers, and private sources. By the same means they learned that FRANCIS JOSEPH claimed to be not only Emperor of AUSTRIA, but King of HUNGARY also. On this the Diet passed an able resolution, recounting the laws of the land relative to the succession of the Crown, and to the case of a Regency, showing that without the con- sent of the Diet and a legal coronation, which ' involves a full recognition by oath of the funda mental laws of the kingdom, no one could be ' King of Hungary—and finally enjoining on all the authorities to refrain from in any way recognising the authority unlawfully claimed by FRANCIS JOSEPH. Thus far the Hungarians have a clear case, and the resolution, which is a long one, is complete proof of the not merely technical and formal, but substantial soundness of their position. The speech of Count APPONYI, at the opening of the Hungarian Diet this year, is also before us to day ; and, so far as it goes, it may fairly be put in evidence before the English Chancery judge by LOUIS KOSSUTH. The COUNT, it is significantly remarked, never uses to the Diet the title of king. This could only be from consciousness that FRANCIS JOSEPH is not yet king. It shows that,..as the COUNT lays before the Diet the documents relating to the abdication of FERDINAND V., the Minister is aware that until the Diet accepts the abdication, FRANCIS JOSEPH may be what he pleases in Austria, but he is not legally King of Hungary. The Royal Speech, for such it must be considered, is a very gracious affair. All difficulties may be removed by "mutual good-will and sincerity ;" the "paternal heart of his Majesty" has had " deep wounds" inflicted on it ; he asserts that by his uncle's abdication he was called on to rule over Hungary and the connected states ; he is inclined to concede to their lawful demands ; ho has assimi lated the other parts of his empire to the kingdom of Hungary by giving them representative insti tutions, and now, therefore, he concludes that the time for amalgamation is come, " the institutions in the other provinces of the empire being assimi lated to the Constitutional institutions of his beloved kingdom of Hungary." The Hungarians will know well how to deal with all this. Their kingdom is much larger than any province of the empire, and it is for them to say whether they will consent to be a mere Imperial province. We hope they never will. IRON MEN OF 117,11?. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Having read your very judicious and instructive remarks on the above-named subject, in The Sun of yester day, stating among other facts, that the present iron built men-of-war are proof against shells charged with liquid fire, molten iron, Bcc, I fully admit that they are proof against such shells as are now in use, but I will engage to pierce them with my well tempered steel bolt-shells charged with liquid fire, and fired from Captain Blakely's straight forward muzzle-loading rifle cannon, of a sixty-eight pounder calibre. lam confirmed in this opinion from the experiment I made with a lilipntian steel bolt-shell at Windsor barracks' twenty years ago, and again, with a shell constructed on the same principles and fixed frame, as two-groove military rifles, at Cork, in 1852, in presence of several members of the Council of the British Association for the encouragement of the Arts and Sciences, held there in the summer of that year. This fact was fully and clearly reported by Colonel Beamish, one of the council present, in a letter to the Times, and also to the editor of the United Service Journal, of August, 1852, copies of which were sent, at the expense of the committee, to the Lords High Commissioners of the Admiralty, the War-office,, and the -- rse Guards. I am, Sir, Your obediont servant, J. NORTON, Late Captain, 34th Regiment. Rosherville, April 13. SCRAPS OF OLD LONDON.—The Watergate of Essex-house will be found at the bottom of Essex-street.

Letters have been received here from Sagon up to the 28th of February by the chartered steamer Granada, announcing that on the 24th of February an attack was made by the French and Spanish forces (the latter only 2130 men in action) on the Anamese, and, although. the allies came off victo rious, it was a much more serious affair than was expected. Five forts were taken, and also a fortified camp, with a large quantity o ammunition and arms. The loss of the Anamites cannot be ascertained, as they invariably carry off their wounded. 20 prisoners only were made. The loss . of the French is stated to be Lieutenant- Colonel Tesard and midshipman Le Regniere killed, the General and five officers wounded, and 300 rank and file killed. and wounded. The Spa nish lost five killed and 35 wounded. A Spanish colonel also was wounded. The day after the steamer left a new expedition was to be organised to follow up the success, and it was hoped that part of the country where large quantities of grain were stored would be secured, meanwhile rice had advanced to 1 dol. 65c. Next mail will give particulars of the engagement that was expected to come off on the 29th ult. TURIN, APRIL 13.

The discount accommodation presents a diminution in Paris of 4 millions, and an augmentation in the provinces of 131 millions. Advances on Rente, bullion, and railway securities remain very nearly the same as last month. On the side of the liabi lities, the notes in circulation have increased 71 millions in Paris, and half a million in the depart ments. The account current of the Treasury is 11 millions higher. Private accounts current show a diminution 0f,21 millions in Paris, and another of 11 millions in' the provinces. The whole amount of the metallic reserve is at present 3771 millions, to 7351 millions of notes in circulation. BOURSE, April 12.—Stock has been rather offered to-day, and prices have receded.

A letter from Warsaw of the 7th gives the fol lowing details of what took place on the day pre• ceding that of the late collision : " Yesterday a body of nearly 60,000 persons assembled to go in procession to the patronal fete of Powouski, but the idea was afterwards aban doned. This morning a great number of persons attended the churches, and at the close of the service assembled in the streets. The crowd col lected was immense and very agitated, and went in a body to the Hotel of the Agricultural Society. Over the principal entrance is the arms of Russia, the double-headed eagle, having on its breast the white eagle of Poland. The Russian eagle was not injured by the crowd, but they covered it with black crape, so that only the Polish eagle could be seen. The people also covered the front of the hotel with branches of palm and wreathS of immortelles. The people demanded Count Andre Zamoyski, but on being informed that he was not in the hotel, they went to his private residence. The Count, seeing the crowd approach, went down into the street and, addressing the leaders, recommended them to observe calmness and moderation, as such conduct would constitute their greatest strength. They promised that his advice should bo followed. About five o'clock the mass of people went towards the Chateau of General Gortschskoff, who had from the previous day kept an imposing force under arms. The crowd called loudly for the General, who came out on horseback at the head of his staff, and, advancing, towards them, asked what they wanted. We want our country, and a Polish army, for a country without au army is a hand without fingers.' The General replied that they had not adopted a proper mode of asking for it, and advised them to disperse with out disturbance. 'The Emperor,' added the General, has already made several concessions to you, and will make more if you remain quiet.' Promise us to transmit our wishes to the Em peror,' replied the leaders of the crowd. At this moment the front ranks of the people were so close to the troops that no one could have passed between them. The crowd manifested no aggres sive disposition, ani did not show any intention of retiring, but, on the contrary, kept gradually increasing in numbe . r: To all the summonses to disperse, the answer made was, Promise. us, on your honour, to transmit our demands to the Em peror.' General Gortschakoff then re-entered the chateau, and the situation became' more and more critical. The arms of the_ troops had been loaded . without the' people appearing to take any heed of it e At the .expiration of a quarter of an hour Gen. lileouleff cane', and iri the name of Gen. Gortscha koff promised to agree to their request and trans mit their demands. Some of the citizens then addresSed the people, and recommended them to retire. The answer given to them was, 'Let the r soldiers be first withdrawn ; they have not eaten for the day, and it is a pity to fatigue them so much for nothing' The troops were accordingly ordered back to their barracks, and the people began to disperse, saying, however, as they went, We shall return to-morrow and bring our de mands in writing.'" A letter of the 9th says:-- " Yesterday, between five and six o'clock, a nume rous crowd again assembled before the royal palace, in accordance with the intention announced the previous evening to repeat its demands. At the same moment a post-chaise crossed the square, and the postilion played on his horn the national air of Dombroski, Poland has not yet perished !' This, so to speak, electrified the people, and though without arms, they attempted to force their way into the courtyard of the palace. Then the cavalry charged and the infantry fired. Several young men, some of them carrying cruci fixes, attempted to separate the people by leading part of them into the streets in the vicinity of the Podwale and the Senatorska, but they found the entrance to the streets occupied by infantry. New volleys were fired at the people. The num ber of persons killed and wounded is not yet known, but it must be considerable. The soldiers carried many dead bodies to the palace, and other victims were sent to St. Roch's Hospital and the European Hotel. Whilst these sanguinary scenes were taking place in front of the palace, between 3,000 and 4,000 persons, and among them many women and children, collected round a statue of the Virgin at the opposite end of the square, and on their knees began praying and singing hymns. Detachments of infantry made several attempts to disperse them. but without success. At length, at nightfall; the troops were withdrawn, and the crowd quietly re tired. In the evening a deputation of the citizens went to the palace and requested to see Prince Gortschakoff, but he refused to recEive them. General consternation prevails. It is feared that bad news will come in from the provinces, as the dissolution of the Agricultural Society has there caused great exasperation. In the course of the demonstration of the 7th, an aide-de-camp of General Chrulow committed suicide by blowing out his brains at the palace. The director of finance, M. Lenski, the director of the bank, M. Miepoko jszycki, and the Governor of Lublin, M. Mackie wicz, sent in their resignations on the morning of the Bth." WILLS AND BEQUESTS. The will of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent was proved in the principal registry on the 3d of this month by the Prince Consort, the sole exe cutor. This will, emanating from so distinguished a person as the mother of her Majesty, will, we are assured, be read with great interest by all classes. Under this conviction we give the document entire. " This is the last will and testament of me, Victoria Marie Louise, Duchess of Kent and Strathern. I hereby revoke all other wills and codicils made by me at any time heretofore. I give, devise, and bequeath to my dearly-beloved daughter, her Majesty Queen Victoria, all my real and personal estate whatsoever and wheresoever whereof I may be seised, possessed, interested in, or entitled unto at the time of my decease, to hold the same unto my said daughter, her successors, and assigns absolutely. I appoint my dearly-beloved son-in-law and nephew his Royal Highness Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Prince Consort, sole executor. In witness whereof I have hereto set my hand this twentieth day of March, one thousand eight hundred and sixty.—VICTORIA." " Signed and declared by her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent and Strathern as and for her last will and testament in the presence of us, who, in her presence (all being pre sen t a t th e same ) , at her request, and in the presence of each other, have subscribed our names as witnesses.—G. Couper, Principal Equerry to H.R.H. the Duchess of Kent, Frogmore ; Ramsay H. Couper, clerk in the War Office, residing in Frogmore." The will of her late Royal Highness exhibits a perfect specimen of beautiful penmanship. It is written in a style of remarkable neatness and perspicuity, and is so exceedingly brief as merely to occupy a portion only of one side of foolscap paper. The personalty was sworn under £30,000. The will of the Most Noble Elizabeth Dowager Duchess of Cleveland, of Newton House, near Bedale, Yorkshire, and of Grosvenor-square, Lon don, was proved in the London Court on the 3d instant by Lord Harry Vane, M.P., and Mark Milbank, Esq., the executors. The personalty was sworn under £300,000, The will of this distin guished lady is exceedingly voluminous, and the property of which she died possessed, consisting of realty and personalty, is of very large amount. The bequests are principally confined to the mem bers of her family • but there are many genero us instances of her kindly feelings towards personal friends. Her Grace bestows an annuity of £l,OOO upon the widow of her deceased nephew, Robert Russell, Esq., and her real estates she devises to the eldest son of that gentleman (now in his minority), subject to certain charges. Her Grace, in token of her kindly esteem and regard to many of her friends and others, has left them va rious ornaments in costly jewellery. These she has described very minutely by affixing the name of the person to each ornament. Her Grace has also exercised the most bountiful liberality towards her servants, leaving to them very handsome legacies and annuities, and the continuance of her weekly allowances to her pensioners, this sum amounting to about £B7 per annum. The Duchess has directed that the residue of her property shall be expended in the purchase of freehold investments, in order to form an estate, which is, in like manner with the other estates, to devolve to the eldest son or repre sentative of her deceased nephew. The will and five codicils of the late Lady Har riet Elizabeth Wetherell-Warneford, of 96, Eaton square, London, and of Warneford-place, High worth, Wilts, hav e b een prove d i n her ajesty's Court of Probate by Joseph Sewell, Esq., the sole executor. Her ladyship was the second and sur viving daughter of the late Colonel Francis Warne ford, and the widow of the late Sir Charles Wetherell, Knt., D,C.L., M.P. Lady Wetherell- Warneford entered into the possession of the family estates in Wilts and in Ireland upon the death of her mother, the Hon. Elizabeth Warneford, in 1847, and shortly afterwards assumed her maiden name of Warneford after that of Wetherell by, Royal licence. Her ladyship died on the 7th ult., child less, when the family estates passed, under the will of her late husband, to the Rev. John Henry Warne ford of Halifax, Yorkshire. Her ladyship com mences her will by the bestowal of her jewels upon her god-daughter, Lady Clementine Augusta Churchill, daughter of the late Duke of Marl borough, and to whom she leaves her leasehold house in Eaton-square, together with the furniture and a legacy of £5,000. The other pecuniary legacies are as follow :—To the Dowager Vis countess Ashbrook, £1,000; to Viscountess Ash brook, £5,000 ; to the three daughters of Viscount Ashbrook, £15,000 amongst them; to Nathan Wetherell, Esq., £5,000, and upon him devolves a , further sum of £5.000, as the representative of the late Rev. R. Wetherell(; to' her friend Joseph Sewell, Esq., of Ciren cester, £lO,OOO, and whom she has appointed resi duary legatee; to the daughters of the late Mr. Melton, her London solicitor, £3,000, which sum was left to his widow, since deceased ; to F. Chichester, Esq., £530 ; to the wife ()Wept. Webbe, £500; to the Rev. E. Rowden, Vicar of Highworth, £l,OOO ; and to William Lawrence, Esq., her medi cal attendant, £5OO. Lady Warneford has left to her own maid, Esther Bradford, £5,000, and other bequests ; to Elizabeth Phillips, her late house keeper, £3OO ; to her butler, £5OO ; to another ser vant, £2OO ; and to her head gardener, farm bailiff, and each of her domestic servants, one year's wages. Her ladyship leaves the following munificent be quests for 'charitable purposes, namely :—The sum of £45,000 to trustees for aiding the necessitous widows and orphans of the poor clergy, incumbents, and licensed curates in the ancient diocese of Glou cester—her ladyship having made a gift of £30,000 for promoting the building and repairing the churches in the same diocese; and bequeaths to the the interest to b e vicar of Sevenhampton £ 2 ,0 0 0, expended in coals, blankets, and warm clothi ng f or the poor, and distributed amongst them at each returning Christmas. All bequests are to be paid free of legacy duty. The personalty was sworn under £lBO,OOO, The will • bears date the 16'h of April, 1851, and witnessed by E. Carleton Holmes, 12, Bedford• row, solicitor, and Richard Fisher, of Q uee n-square, Bloomsbury. The last codicil was made on the 21st of July, 1860,—Illustrated Lon don News. A MoNsrEn I3uLL.—There is now in the layers at the New Cattle Market, probably the largest bull ever seen. It was brought last night to the market in a convey ance from the Nine Elms station of the South-Western Railway. It is of the strawberry colour, and its weight is 14- tons, or 350 stone: Its arrival in the market caused, as may be supposed, some excitement, and, doubtless, will do so till its removal from the market. It is at the market for sale oIA Monday tleAt, It is of the shorthorn breed, W ORKHOU6E CHILDREN. The report of the Education Commission draws a very melancholy picture of the condition of the children in workhouses. Workhouse influences have a very marked tendency to produce helpless ness and prevent the growth of independence of character. An Assistant-Commissioner remarks that it is difficult to convey a definite idea of a child brought up from its infancy in the workhouse. Doomed never to have known the meaning of " borne," cut off from the exercise,of the ordinary affections, in many instances diseased in body and feeble in mind, these poor children exhibit little of the vigour and joyousness of youth. Listless and subservient in manner, they seem to be broken down, by misfortune before they have entered upon life. Such a child is content to spend its days in a workhouse. The Commissioner says :—" Some of the tradesmen who had taken union boys as appren tices told me that it took several years before they acquired the desire for independence—the wish to earn their own bread." This is especially the case where there is little or no industrial training; boys who have never been accustomed to handle a spade, and girls who have never had to scrub the floors, rebel when they are put to such work. On the other hand, association with old paupers tends the more to corrupt them. "It seems impossible to exagge rate the spirit of lying, low cunning, laziness, insubordination, and profligacy which charac terises the pauper class in workhouses, and this , spirit naturally infects the mass of poor children who are bred up in so pestilen tial an atmosphere." The case is even more hopeless with the girls than with the boys. The adult single women in the house have often children whom they are allowed to see, and the girls cannot learn any domestic duty without coming occasionally in contact with this class, who are employed in household work. Girls just going out into the liberty of the world are brought in contact with them, as they sit by a good fire nursing their babies and gossiping. The girls mix also with the children of tramps and of paupers coming in for a short time t and who bring in evil enough to undo any good the teacher may do ; and all the children who have parents in the house are liable to be taken out with them when they choose to leave for a few days, perhaps to at tend a fair. A good schoolmistress said, " She felt she was training up girls for a life of vice and infamy." "One girl," says another mistress, " . and not a bad specimen of a pauper girl, said to me the other day, My cousin Sally left the house some time ago, and now she has come back with a baby, and I hope I shall soon go out and come back too with a baby.' " Now, there is a known remedy for this sad state of things—the establishment of dis trict or separate schools at a distance from the workhouse, withdrawing the children entirely from the adults, and from bad pareidaJ influence, for such we know it is. Such schools, where established, have had the most remarkable and striking success. The object in view is to emancipate the children from pauperism, teach them not to become paupers themselves, and open a better life to them ; and these schools offer the best prospect of a permanent diminution of pauperism and crime. But the guar dians are unwilling to establish them; in 1859 there were only 7,000 children in them, and 37,000 in the workhouses. There seems no resource but by the Legislature interposing to close this fountain of evil. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING. LONDON, April 13.—Wind this day at noon, N.; moderate breeze and cloudy.

Mr. Lambert, of Uxbridge, comes forward in the Liberal interest, but a meeting of the electors will be held on Monday for the choice of a suitable candidate. At the Central Criminal Court, last evening► Spencer and Blandford, who had been convicted of sending diseased meat to Newgate market/or sale as human food, were sentenced to six months' imprisonment in Newgate. Richard C. Bache, who pleaded guilty to embezzling war rants for the delivery of ten tons of hemp, was sentenced to a year's confinement in Newgate.

Soldiers who wish to buy off the remaining term of their service must pay 550 f. a year instead of 500 f. The premium on re-enlistment after seven years' service is raised from 2,000 f. to 2,200 f. THE ALLEGED ILL-TREATMENT OF A LUNATIC. —Yesterday Mr. G. S. Brent, deputy coroner for West • Middlesex, and the jury previously empanelled, reassembled at the Colney-hatch County Lunatic Asylum, Friern Barnet, for the purpose of further investigating the circumstances connected with the death of Samuel May, aged 49, whose death, it was alleged, was the result of injuries sustained through the violence of an attendant, as reported in our columns of Monday last. Some further evidence having been taken, the jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict, " That the deceased Samuel May died from ex haustion, accelerated by fractured ribs, but how those injuries were produced there was not sufficient evidence before them to prove." The jury were about to attach to their verdict a recommendation that the asphalte flooring should be removed, when Mr. Scaife said that was already in hand, and would be completed in about three months. Extra attendants would also be engaged. BUCKLEYS' SERENADERS AND THE SHEFFIELD MAGISTRATES.—An application for " a license is perform Stage-plays" was made by Mr. Broadbent, at the Town Hall, Sheffield, on Tuesday last, on behalf of Mr. Joseph Johnstone, Manager of Buckley's ' , Serenaders. The license was to authorise them to perform Stage-plays, in the Music Hall, for a fortnightt. The application was opposed by Mr. A. C. Branson, on behalf of Mr. Charles Pitt, Lessee of the Theatre Royal, who said that, to grant the present application, would be attended with ruinous consequences to Mr. Pitt, who took the Theatre on some sort of representation. If a license was granted 'to the Music Hall, it would be unjust sot to license other singing rooms in the town, if application was made. Mr. W. Smith, a magistrate—These singing rooms are drinking rooms as well. Mr. Branson—Yes, over which you have a power, and if they transgress you have the license in your hands, and can remedy the evil. I contend that there has been no case made out on behalf of the pub' lie. The Bench well know that there is a large building in the town, capable of holding 3,000 or 4,000 persons, for which applications have been made, but without success' Mr. W. Smith—There is an additional inducement there• There they can have the drama and gin. Mr. Branson -1 didn't know that before. Mr. Branson—Well, they Can have beer, which is the same thing. Mr. Dann—l thini' the justices will not deem it right to grant stage licenses t° public-house. After some other unimportant conversatio n, the ma gstrates retired, and on their return granted a licens e for a fortnight —Era. CAPTURE OF A FEMALE FlEND.—Ycsterday ing an altercation took place between two females, aPPer ently drunk, in the Waterlob-road, when a most desperate fight ensued, and the result was that one of them, n well known desperate character, bit off the nose of her opponeaG and swallowed it. This caused a strong feeling against her by the mob. She was taken to Tower street station, se" verely biting the hands of the officer on her way to the station-house. An extraordinary act was committed yesterday in the Rue Boulay. A young man, Joseph A--, called at the lodgings of his brother in that street to receive some linen which he had confided to a young woman who lived with his brother, to get washed. The linen was not ready' and ho got into a violent quarrel with the female ; at length hi became so irritated that he took her child, six weeks old, who was sleeping in a cradle, and threw it out of the 'win dow, which was on the first floor. The little creature was not killed on the spot, but was so injured that it is not ex pected to recover. The young man took to flight, but NvaS afterwards captured and sent to the Prefecture of rohcei ...........
