The official announcement.of the Treaty of PeaCc vas on Monday, night made to the Hons.° of Com• toons.by- the Premier. The information elicited was, hovrever,.of a very meagre and unsatilfactory character, adding nothing to what was not pre- viously known to every member of the. House, tnd, indeed, to every inhabitant of London and Lhe metropolitan counties. With respect to the ature of the terms h . !;.reed on, Lord PA LERSTON was in the position of the needy knife-grinder— " Story, GOD bless ..you, I have none to tell"— and , it is only7to be regretted' that' there was not °me "friend of humanity" in a.tteudance - to punish the wilful suppression of the tale. It ap pears that the public must smother ,their.very natural anxiety to. know what has been amain- Idished until the exchange of ratifioAtious, which is to take plac e w i t hi n four weeks at the out Side, but which it is hoped may be effected within i,bree weeks.

The matter eventuating—to the honour of all parties concerned, the continued cordiality between the Allies, and the high com pliments to the dignity and firmness, as well as 'co the conciliatory conduct of the British Plenipo tentiaries, were all matters that might have been anticipated. But the nation requires• something more than poinpous platitudes or vague generali ties,:however gracefully delivered. It wants the evidence on which these assertions are founded, that it may be enabled'to judge for itself of their tte , curacy, and have adequate data to qualify it to arrive at correct conclusions. We protest against this silence as a gross and deliberate insult to the representative or demo cratic system of Government, as being far better suited to the atmosphere of St. Petersburg, of 'Vienna, or of Berlin, where the expression of the sovereign will is all that is requited, than ofLon don, where the monarchy . is supposed to be iinsited. It may be essential that the negotia Lions' should in the first instance be carried on secretly, without each point being canvassed in Parliament ; but to state that the mystery is to be maintained until everything has been finally and irrevocably 'concluded, and the United.

It may do very well under the German models, to which we are rapidly assimilating, but it should not be submitted to by those who arrogate to themselves the proud title of . freemen., . We trust that some independent meniber may be, found to give ut terance to the general expression of disznst and indignation at a course so totally opposed to the very essence of the representative sys'em. We can easily conceive the grounds on which the agr'eement for secrecy was entered,,into. To -the absolute and irresponsible Powers represented at the Conference it must have been a matter of profound, indifference when the terms ware an nounced to the world. They have no monitors to whom they hold. themselves accountable, - and are well aware that peace on any terms, or on any e.ondilioas, would be acceptable to their sub jects, butnot so ;n Eugland. It has been More than hinted that the provisions and stipulations will be exceedingly clisiasteful to pie British People—that . all.the sacrifices of.men . and money so cheerfully submitted to have been made in vain—that we end precisely where we begun, with nothing to show for the lives of tens of thOe sands of our gallant countrymen, or -of tens of millions.of piunds sterling wasted in th© fruitless entdrprik .; that in fact, as we recently stated, out victories, and undiminishe,d , resonrces are their own reward—the defeats of the CZAR, the hisses of Russia." Now it may be very desirable to let the time slip by until the public indignation has consumed itself, so that the results of the an nouncement of- the real truth may be disoarqed at a month's date. Any expression of disappro bation *ill be met by the reply, " Oh, you do not yet know what Las been achieved,, wait fur azure little time, and then you will have amp!e 'materials for any course ypu, may :,think proper to .pursue."

We subjoin extracts : . . (From the Overland Bombay Times of March 6.) SUMMARY. —The arrangeinents for theAdmihrs tration of the affairs of Oude proceed as tranquilly and peaceably as if the kingdom annexed a fort night since had been one-of the - old 'provinces of the empire, undergoing a slight transformation in its organisation. The selections of the new officials are said to be judicious. There seems no reason to apprehend but that evsrything will go on smoothly and auspiciously. The Calcutta "Citizen states that the number of soldiers whose arrearshave.tor4 paid up.amount to 70,000, and the sum due to 48,00;000 rupees.' - The amount found in - the' Varionslr'ea suries of the Oude kingdom amounts to 28130,001 rupees, which, according to the balances as enteied ia c .the:Treasurer's books, shows a .defalo:ition;; 9t 0,k)0;000 rupees. This allade's to the - curie:at Fuzlee year. It is suspected that the King, Miniti !ter, a aa. Eunuchs have maderaway the a nontit . and buried it in secret vaults.. A.: veor-large treasure; Ftai.l to amount to 150,00,000 rupees, is reported to have been buried between'the,„l.9ol - and - 27th January under some, plum trees in ,the Palace. Gen.

The King's ladies burielalinost ilieiiiewels three weeks before the annexation. The Suithalis continue to wander about in the - jungles, still alarnaing the villagers, hut abstaining *from 'lee , Is of , violence, and it will probably take some time before they finally settle down. TranqUir lity appears to prevail •.along our north-west fron tier. •• A somewhat singular but • highly effective treasure - , has been bad recourse' to; by Major Edwardes the Commissioner, to repress 'violence.

IRELAND. - DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING. ,THE IRISH JUDICIAL BENCH: _ _ _------ The death of Mr. Justice Torrens, announced in The Sun of yesterday, has, for obvious reasons, created a degree of public interest more than com mensurate with the occurrence of all event at any othersitime-of Scarcely 'third-rate importance, even in th© eyes of the gossiping quidnuncs of - the Irish capital. The learnt(' judge had attained to the ripe ago of 81 years, and, although for a long time he had been a martyr to - physical infirmities, there wdre 4eoent,symptoms to warrant the impres sion that the hour of dissolution was so near at hand. He : expired at Derrynoid-lodge, in the county of Llndonderry, on Saturday evening, after having, in conjunction with Baron Penne father, despatched the business of the North-west Circuit, from its opening at Longford to its close at Londonderry, and 1.705 but one day absent front temporary indisposition. The following memoir of the late judge is condensed from the Freeman's Journal : Judge Torrein was called to the bar in Michaelmas Term, 1798, and raised to the bench in 1823. Thus he ha," been for 58 years a member of the bar, atd 33 a judge. He had never filled any of the higher offices of law, having attained only the rank of str4eant ; but the , influence ut his brother, Sir Henry Torrens, who occu p;ed a distingui•hed position in the army, and was deep in_tbe conFdenCe of George the Fourth when Prince Regent, secured the elevation of his brother to the bench. .Judge Torrens had far inferior claims to many who bad 6'er , passed over; but in those days, as indeed in sue ceediag times, party and interest determined judiciai prom tt ens insteai r , f experience, ability, and judicial fitness, His lordship, however, was a judge of areraw merit, 'And _Made up on the bench for the deficiencie, arising from professional inexperience while at the bar His intellect was clear, though not very conyrebensive. e took common sense views of quetion, and rarely ventured beyond his depth. In the adniinistra:bot of , T.rninal justice he was somewhat severe, paric d iring ids first years on the bench, when the distuibeo tate of the country, with oveifl etAing assizes and cm.- stant co/rmissions, afforded scope fur a vigour net always , ithin the law. In his later year', however, thi tender) , y was corrected, and he tried most ca•es in volving life with a tenderness which Mr. Just:o Perrin night a 1 ul re.

DARING GAROTTE ROBBERY.—Liverpool, Tuesday Yesterday afternoon ' a lady named Mrs. Crowe, white walking op th e p a th from Green lane to West Derby, and bad en ssed the ettle behind Newsham House, be longing to Mr. Gardner, was seized by two ruffians. One of them caught her by the throat and stopped her breat'i; while the other pulled away from her dress her boll watch, gold chain, locket, and seals, and then ma 'e off. When sufficiently recovered, she gave an alarm, and, being heard by M r Gardner's butler and coachman (Jones and Young), they, in the most praiseworthy man mr, pursued the men, and after a run of three mile, captured them. They were brought up this morning. before the county magistrates, and fully committed for trial. SUICIDE AT HAMPTON-COURT PALACE•—An. inquest was held (on Tuesday, let of April) before Mr. William Thos. Manning, coroner £f her Majesty's household and the very, and a jury of yeomen officers of the Queen's ffouSerhOld,' at the canteen ' Hampton-court Palace bar racks, on the body of Mr. James Neil, late superintend ent of Hampton-court Palace gardens, which office he had held about four years, having been appointed by Lord Seymour, at the time he was Chief Commissioner of the Woods .and Forests. It appeared from the evi (knee of William, Hurst and Hannah Cm that about 10 o'clock on Sunday last the deceased was found lying on the pavement , a-few feet from the front door of his apartments in the Palace profusely bleeding at the head, and a portion of, one of the tiles from the roof by his side. Deceased was only partially dressed. and imrne diatety - he - Was taken up he expired. The evidence showed that he must have clambered through a_window oil - tre roof ,:tif his apartments, and then precipitated himself doWAr a height of upwards or 30 feet onto the stone pnienient beneath. It appeared that the deceased was of a very excitable and irritable temperament, and that he had been in the habit some months since of firing off guns and pistols in the coart-yard of the Palaee late at night. On 'being remonstrated with on one occasion by the %itrress Hurst for his extraordinary conduct, he replied, "Don't he alarmed, it's only me."• Dr. Jepson, the medical7attendant of the deceased, deposed that LA had be-n in the habit of attending him for fits of dyspep. sia for about nine Months, and that he was under medical treatment for alNitit a week previous to his death. On -the FodAy preceding his decease witness was sent fortrudd6lY.," when he found deceased in bed with no thing apparently the matter with him, but he complained of great depression. He was of opinion that deceased des'royed hi ms elf while labouring under an attack of !hypochondria. Wittles did not think that a post mor ' tea examination would tend to further elucidate tile cause of death. The coroner and jury having viewed the spot whire. the catastrophe occurred, a verdict of ." tempo rar y insanity" way returned.

It i s exrec t e d that the first section of the line from tGodalnaing to.

' l There was now, however, a prospect uf a favourable change, and the directors were prepared to avail themselves of it in order to press forward the works to as speedy a completion as the extent of int provernent in the Looney-market would justly' warrant. The directors wish to be understood that their opinions in respect to the in trinsic charact er of th e un d erta ki n g remain unchanged ; and that 'its completion . alone je needed to demonstrtite its usefulness t o th e dOcernmeno and-to a large popu, 4 ation hitherto insufficiently' supplied with railway acconoodation, or altogether withentA as. wellas its value to the shareholders. - The report of Messrs.
