T SU N; LONDON, S, A_ TllEt at Y 14: V El, /it IP - 4 JULY 28,1 8 5 tla _ Apcording to Hebrew and Christian theolo, ans the _world _has served its inhabitants iu its present form pretty well for 6,000 years or so. To be sure far more than five-sixths of that time its tenants knew but little of each other. Arne iica itself 'was unknown to the old world three centuries, and a-half ago,.and the further East Practically unknown to Europe for nearly as long a times, Is is indeed hardly possible to realise the change which has brought America as near as were the Northern and Southern parts of an island a century back, and made furthest Ind as - accessible as America then was. Tile wandering tribes of the Eastern deserts still reckon distance by time, and we are fast returning to this primitive mode of measurement: How many among ua could answer the question of the distance between Eng land-and -America, India, or Australia, compared with those who-could,name in a minute how many days' voyage it was to them respectively. Steam and Lieutenant MAURY have done for the ocean .what steam and theiron rail have done for the land.- . . . Indeed when the lieutenant's admirable charts are cemplete ltbe sail will have regained much of ite •, lost'yrestiae for Yong commercial Voyages, or father, as the voyage of the Royal Charier seems to show, they will good- temperedl y arnalgania.te their powers. Lieut. MAURY will guide the good ship to favour able winds, wherever winds blow, and the screw will propel her through the region of calms. But it is not enough to put the powers of our' little planet to new uses, and to subjugate even the rapidity of the lightning to the cravings of human impatience. Not eneue,h that we should converse across continents and seas, and propose to talk with friends even in Calcutta; not enough that the screw and the sail should turn voyages of months into voyages of weeks ; we must fairly cit up the old earth itself where it is too old• f ishiOned or too ill-fashioned for our eagerness, or at least where it will not suit our purpose. The • Isthmus of Panama has long been an eyesore to tlse 'world-menders. Oyer ite we have gone by rail already, but that is nothing. Through it we must go also. The Yankees have decreed it, and have dragged us half way into a war in their zeal for a- short 'cut: ,to the pacific; or, as they will have it, to bless the region of the sliip canal thither,witli perpetual peace. Nature seems, indeed, rather unwilling to submit . her neck to the stroke. The old' Isthmus has been surveyed and re-surveyed ; was to be cut here and: cut there, but it is still entire, and the two Ame ricas are still one body, and seem likely yet to remain so. It does not seem easy for our engi neering HENRY the Eighths to put on cut asunder, according to their taste, those whom Dame Nature has joined together. Some eighth - 11,tzunx in this line is, however, the -want of the day, for another neck stands in the way of our d'sires, by uniting the old world's con tinents of Africa and Asia also. , • In ages long gone by, the attempt was indeed made to marry the separated seas, And to divorce the united conti nents ; but land witi hold.; its own, and the I waters still surge in vain to meet each otlir, though only some siKtyoQseventytniles of land in -tervene, and though they have no other Chance of in t9rzninglingexcept, by rolling round a distance equal to half the circumference of the globe.

Alinv important measures had been introduced : some of these were founded on recommendations from the-Throne ; others of scarcely inferior interest had been brought forward by Ministers, but few, indeed, revived the Legis lative sanction ! " Tne massacre of the innocents" commence 1 at an cattier period, and was conducted with greater virulenc3, than * ou almost any previous, occasion. The contrast between " the sayings and doings" of the Government was - , psrhaps, more decided • than in any former s3ssion ; and there was no valid excuse for this untoward state of affairs.

To the strictly nautical part of the question we shall not advert further than by remarking, gene- rally, that the navigation of the Red Sea, and The Czar haS appointed Vice,Admirals Schantz, NitkofF, and Roumiakoff, commandants of the the voyage thence to and from India, is now con ducte 1 with a regularity which seems to dispel al ,hree divisions of the Russian fleet, as now re. oiganised. THE HAGUE, JULY 25. The Nadlerlauds Government has prepared a doubt on that score. Suez is also at present a project for the reduction of the navigation dues on the Rhine, as collected by the towns on that river. SPAIN. ode haVe received the Madrid iiurnAls of the 20th,„ but they add but little to our previous in- formation. Four companies of troops bad left Madrid on that day for Toledo, where the National Guard is to be reorganised. This reorganisation has already taken place. at Guadalajara. The column com manded by Brigadier O'Donnell had passed through that town on its way to Saragossa. General Dalee was to leave Madrid on the even ing of the 20th for Aragon, although he was still suffering from the contusion which he had received. It is calculated that 10,000 soldiers will be in a few days before Saragossa. It was thought at Madrid that no conflict would . arise. The Queen accompanied by her con sort again visited the hospitals on the 19th, and distributed a considerable earn of money amongSt the wounded. Her Majesty then drove through the Prado, where she was received with loud acclamations. The representatives Of the principal Madrid journals had been invited to present themselves before the civil g overnor of the province. The latter expr essed his desire to see the journals abstain from exaggerating events or propagatiug . false intelligence, as thereby he would be compelled to decree repressive measures port in regular use ; the anchorage and weather in the roadstead, which is capable of holding 500 vessels, must be on the whole favourable, since the English corvette Zenobia has lain there in a part exposed to the weather, for the last three years, with not the least shifting of her anchors, damage to her cables, or interruption of commu nication with the shore even for a single day. To carry the canal out fairly into about 30 feet water will require a jetty of nearly a mile in length. Stone for the purpose lies near at hand. The cost must, however, be considerab!e. But it is on the Mediterranean side that more serious difficulties have to be overcome. The facts seem now well established since her MAJESTY'S ship Tartarus has just returned from a surveying ex pedition at the very spot,,and her soundings give the same result, precisely as those taken by the commission under the auspices of the Egyptian Government. They both report that the slope of the coast to deep water is generally the most gradual conceivable. Along the greater par of the coast of the Gulf of Pelusium, 30 feet of water is only reached at some six miles from the shore, a fall of only 5 feet in a mile Nor are there any perceptible tides to afford temporary daily remedy for this shallowness. At one point, however, opposite the 'Height of Tannia, on the west side of the gulf, the fall is less gradual ; the depth of thirty feet being there reached at the. -distance of a mile-and-a-half from the shore. Will any canal pay for a jetty of that length, the materials for the construction of which mast be brought from quarries along the Syrian shore, or from the Islands of Cyprus, Rh-Klea, or Scar panto ! The waves of the coast are of the gentleA character, but the Tartarus reports an unea4y ground-swell even in the calmest weather. On an impartial review, however, of all the physical difficulties of the scheme, as stated by different parties, the two costly jetties necessitated. by the long channel which must be dredged through the shallow waters will prove the grand obstacle to be overcome, if indeed it can be overcome by any cost which a company would venture to incur. against the press. All the Madrid papers have appeared again, and none of their editors have experienced any vexa tious proceedings. " When (asks the Epoca) has such moderation been before witnessed in Spain ?" The Gazette announces that, according to de spatches received, everything was tranquil at Avila on the 18th, at Corunna on the 16th, at Pontevedra on the 15th, at ()cense on the 15th, at Castellon on the 17th, Cadiz on the 18th, at Circida Real on the 18th, at Huelva on the.lsth, Malaga on the 16th, Seville on the 16th, Burgos on the 18th, and Gui puszoa on the 17th. The Epoca says :—" Marshal Espartero, it ap pears, applied two days ago for a passport for Lo grono. The Government immediately acquiesced in his wish, but at the same time made known to him the situation of La Rioja, leaving it to his own feelings what he ought to do under the cir cumstances in which the country is now placed. The Marshal, in consequence, decided that until tranquillity was perfectly restored throughout the whole country, he would remain in the capital, and immediately took an apartment in the Calle della Greda." The same journal says :—" The M.arqUis de Turgot, the French Ambassador, will leave next week for France. During his absence,. the Count de Comminges Guitanz will lie •Charged with the management of the affairs of the Em bassy." - The French Journal de Madrid, of the 10th, contains the following :—" It has been already mentioned that the French Hospital of St. Louis had been, by order of the Ambassador, placed at the disposal of the wounded in that qUarter. We have had occasion personally to convince ourselves of the zeal and intelligence with which the kind intentions of the Marquis de Turgot were carried into effect. Twenty-two of the wounded were received and attended to with the greatest solici tude by the Sisters of Charity, under the direction of the medical chief of the establishment. Out of the above number six died almost immediately after their admission, and the remaining sixteen are in a fair way of recovery. Several cases of amputation have been performed with perfect success. The inajlritY of Oleg° wounded men belonged to the 7th Battalion of the National Guard." Aceounts from the frontier yesterday spoke of the desertion of a battalion which had marched from Parnpeluna, against Saragossa. .This new:4_ confirmed, The battalion, which belongs to the regiaient of Almanza, is said to have declar e d against O'Donnell at oria. The Epoca, in its number of the 18th, announced that M. B. Iglesias; civil governor of Valencia, had_ been on the point of declaring against the O'Donnell Cabinet. The proclamation, however, published by that functionary at the first news of the changes of Ministry, proves that he had never for a moment hesitated as to the line of duty he had to follow. The document is as follows : "Inhabitants of Valencia, —I think it my duty to call your attention to your own interests, and to dispel all the illusions which the blind spirit of error might en gender among you. Order, Vatencians ! order at any price ! ff you attempt to di , iturb • public tranquillity ; if, listening to perfidious sugges tions, :you tarn a deaf ear to my paternal coun• eels, the most severe punishment will instantly convince you that your authorities are determined preserve order at any price, and that to attain that ob ject they will hesitate at the adoption of no means however strong it may be.

A letter from S ‘ragossa estimates at more than, a million of reals the value of the crops which have, been burnt in the commune of Pina, on the banks. of the Ebro, during thelate disturbances.

Before Count Walowski left for the baths of Horn burg, he, in the name of his imperial master, confiden tially informed Count Cavour that he, would dowel) to G hangehissystem towards Austria, as the French Government was resolved not to lend its coun tenance to any policy which could lead to disturb-I ances in Italy and endanger the so recently restored peace of Europe. The Paris correspondent adds that the British Cabinet was duly informed of what had been done by the French Government, who had also intimated to the Sardinian Court that The Western Powers were resolved neither directly iaor indirectly,to countenance revolutionary movements in Italy. According to an on dit, the French Go: vernment has proposed to the British Cabinet to recall the Ministers of the two Powers from Naples; and to leave simple Charges d'Affaires there for the time being. Some importance is attached to the _visit of thellorecli!ary Prince of Tuscany to this Court, but he is such a very young man (he is -21 years of age) that he can hardly have been en I 'trusted with a pdlitical mission. The Prince, dur ing his short sojourn here, has been out to the cam' at Bisamberg, and there is some reasonto believe that the Ministers and the Diplomatic Corps have not an opportunity of Waiting on him until this morning. At all events Count Buol, Coant L3O Thun Baronde B )urqueney, and some other Statesinen and diplo matists, paid him visits of ceremony a couple hours ago. In a few days the Tuscan Prince wil leave for Bavaria, and in the autumn ho will pro bably accompany the Einperor to Lombardy, where here will be the usual grand military mrnceuvres. The Ocst. Deutsche Post learns from Stuttga,rd that the Dowager Emperor of Russia has relin pished the idea of passing the coming autumn and winter in Italy. The day of her Majesty's depar-, r.oro from Wildbad was already fixed when she received letters from St. Petersburg which induced her to resolve to return, via Borlin,to that capital. The official paper also confirms information given you some days since relative to certain changes which were to be made in the Finance Department. Three chiefs of sections and five Ministerial Cdun sellers have been pensioned, and four new chiefs of sections appointed. To-morrow the clergy will again be in their glory, as his Majesty will publicly place on :the head- of the Archbishop of Agram the cardinal's hat, which has been sent to him from Rome. • Yesterday Prince Paul Esterhazy had his farewell audience of the-Emperor, and to-morrow he will leave, with his brilliant suite, for Moscow. It is estimated that the outlay of the representative of Austria at the coronation of the Emperor Alexan der will be some 600,000f1. (60,0001.) Before the. Prince accepted the mission he distinctly stated that his expenses must be paid, and no one blames him for having done so, it being notorious that bf is not a rich man, although be is the largest landed proprietor in Austria. Baron Budber will not come here as Russian Minister until after the coronation. It is related that Russia has made some concessions to Austrian subjects in respect to passports and the transport of goods across :the rontier: ASTLEY'S BATTLE OF THE ALMA. . _ Mr. William Cooke has revived the memorable spec tacle of the "Battle of the Alma," chiefly for the pur pose of affording the brave Guards recently returned an opportunity of witnessing incontestibly the greatest mill.- • tau. sweacle'ever - prAlticed, atur that grattiitbusly. A number of the men from each battalion visit the'amplii theatre nightly, and it is highly entertaining to the geneiat auditor to see the wan-tore of our country be holding upon the stage their identical companions in the terrible fray, fighting the battle o'er again—to see the enthusiasm gith which they hail their actual comrades ; and each well-known incident of the war is as pleasing as it is siutstirring and exhi!arating to the audience. The spectacle will shortly be withdrawn.

Jun. shafts fell pointless on the Ministerial shield, or rebounded so as to damage to a much greater extent thos.r. , by whom they were originally dis charged. He virtually exonerated Ministers, and transferred the Warne to his own party and his own followers ! The gist of his argument was to the effect--tha,t Lord. PALMERSTON had exercised a cmservative policy which led to the extinction of party, but that that policy ought to have been carried out by men professing Conservative principles ; and that, therefore, the DERBYIT2 skiroaisliers had prevented or retarded what would, if carried, have been very beneficial to the country. So far on matters of domestic interest ; but on Foreign Policy he was still more unsa ti 3factory. He alluded to the questions concerning Russia, Austria, and America points on which the Ministry were even more open to attack than on any others,. and in which the strongest .feelings of disgust and indignation 'were excited throughout the entire country. But in these respects ho praised the Government ! ! He declared that they had acted in harmony with Conservative principles ! Was it, then, a part of the Conservative policy, that all -the sacrifices' of men and money made during the continuance of the contest with Russia should be .dehherately neutralised, and we should refrain from taking advantage of the opportunity BO dearly purchased ? If so, we rejoice that we have not had a Conservative Government ! Was it . part of the Conservative policy that the sanguine hopes " entertained by the sincere supporters of Liberal opinions" respecting an interferenc3 in Italy should be disappointed ? If so, we again exult in their absence from office Was it part of the Conservative policy to submit to deliberate and intentional in sult from the PIERCE-M titCY Cabinet ? If so, a Dcrbyite Ministry would not have improved the position of the country ! Mr. DISRAELI paid what he must have thought to be a high compli ment to the PALMEISTON Cabinet, in stating that "ion subjects of internal interest and the great question of foreign policy they were pursuing a course in harmony with Conservative policy and Conservative principles." The modern BALIANI dills blessed according to his lights the man he was engaged to curse. He gave what he con ceived to be the greatest praise in asserting that the barriers which prevented a thorough fusion between the parties ware completely broke,u.down ! . The entire debate was, 'there fdre, " weary, stale, flat, ,and, unprofitable," and is only effect will be to induce the people heartily exclaim," A plague can both your houses." ~r ~~ .- TURKEY. According to news from Constantinople of :the 18th, the fetes in honour of Marshal Pelissier were exceedingly brilliant. The evacuation of Turkey by the allied troops, which is rapidly taking place from day to day, contradict& the rumour of an occupation by 20,000 men of the French, and 10,000 of the English army. European commerce is -full of activity - • - and the Turkish Government is a bout -to impose Zduty on the produCtions of the country, and establish a new rate upon merchandise ported. T me-thirds of the town of Thessalonica had been destroyed by fire. The Russians have occupied the Isle of Serpents, of ,which Turkey claims the possession by virtue of the treaty of peace. The Russians have refused to . admit 'the English Commissioners into ICars,.de claring that they would not surrender the fortress until after the complete evacuation of Turkey by the allies. A letter from Belgrade of the 16th, in the Augsburg Gazette, says :—"Almttalion of Turkish troops, about 800`strong, arrived here yesterday, and after a short stay it is to be carried to Schumla by the steamboats. These troop, which come from Bosnia, confirm to a certain extent the ru mour that a priest named Hulas had attempted to get up an insurrection - try movement in the Her zegowina, but that it was suppressed." The Berlin, Gazette contains a letter from St. Petersburg,. which says:—" The programme drawn up by the Councillor Guelenoff for the ceremonies of the coronation hal just been approved of by the ' Emperor Alexander. French, German, and Rus sian plays will be performed at Moscow, and there will be also e n Italian opera. A French company obtained au authorisation to open a- large bazaar far the sale of objects of art and luxury. A - letter from Vienna, 21st;i in the Frankfort Gazette, : says :—" Baron de 11qtbrier, the Austrian ambassador in France, has just left for Venice and a tour in Italy. Prince de Hehenloh 4 , tvho Las conceived a project of forming a company with shares for carrying on a trade in corn between Hungary and Germany, has entered into relations with the founders of the new Austrian Credit Mobilier Company for that purpose." Baron Nothomb, the Belgian ambassador at the Court of Berlin, has been for some days so indis posed as to be 'unable to prodeedl6 Brnssels for the ntes. AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY MORNIx The - Vnited States mail steamer Hermann, from Now York for Bremen, with the German, French, and English mails, touched off Cowes this morn ing, with about 150 ' passengers, 100,000dols. in specie, and dates from New York to the 12th inst. The 'mail steamer Afiica, from Uverpool, ar rived at New York on-the.ll,th inst. Yu the . Senate the bill for admitting - Kansas into the Union as a "slitve--holding State was causing great •excitement. , . • • • - The• most intense iexcitetnent prevailed in the pause during the discussion 'oh a report to expel 'Brookes, which almost amounted to, a. ppgilistic .encounter. Intelligence from Kansas "is interesting. The Territorial Legislature assembled on the 4th inst., and, when about proceeding to business, Colonel Sunnier, accompanied by 200 dragoons, marched into the -Representative Chamber, and, after an .explanatory speech, ordered the members to dis perse, which they did. He then proceeded to the • ,Senate• Chamber,. where a similar proceeding Wei: .place, with a like result. A Convention of free States men, embracing 800 delegates, all armed, met at Topeka on the 2d inst., and passed resolutions calling on their friends in Congress to withhold supplies or government aid until Kansas was admitted into the Union under the Topeka Constitution. The Washington correspondent of the New York ilerati says that a great deal of Lad feeling was felt towards Fremont - for the Presidency by a large . number of proniineht Republicans, and that a rtunour prevailed in that city that several northern -States' would supersede-his nomination by calling a new convention for the - purpose of bringing for Ward some other well-known , A fearful tornado_ had visited Frankfort county, and had committed immense damage. • Intelligence from Rio do Janeiro,. to ale 4th inst., reports the entire disappearance of all disease. Coffee was coming in slowly, but . a more abundant supply was looked for from the interior shortly. Some British vesselS had been chartered for :the United States. • Ilavannah dates to the 6.11 inst. state that yellow fever cont.inuel o prevail. The siilar market was. active The New York money-market was without any change worthy of note. The supplycontinued easy, and the demand soniewlnit inzreased. There was little doing in exchange, and the stock-market was dull. Tho 'sales of cotton on the 11th inst. em- braced 1,500 bales, at full prices. Wheat was rather easier. Sugars-were firm, and in good de mand. Freights were light and rather unsettled for grain to Liverpool. The steamer Le.lx non, from Havre, arrived at New York on the 12th inst. The Hermann, on the 24th, in lat. 49.21, long. 11'59, passed the American clipper-ship Superior, standing to the eastward ; and exchanged colours with the American ship Fidelia, standing to south ward and westward.

The British army, relieved from the pressure of military ;uties, and warned of their approaching ,departure, have by boured, regiment by regiment, for many long weeks, to erect memorials to the comrade whose remains will be left behind him by the last Englishman `who . quite this soil ; and tile: works of this nature, which their hllsty embarkation did not permit them to complete, have been undertaken by the few skilled soldier-labourers now belonging to the fragments of, the army. . The Chemonese is covered with isolated graves, with longer burial-groundS, and detached cemeteries from Balaklava to the verge of the roadstead of , Sebastopol. Ra vine and plain—hill and hollow 7 -the roadsidcr and . secluded valley—for miles around;from the s:•.a to the TChernaya, pre sent those stark white stones, singly or in grouvs, stuck up right in the arid soil, or just peering over the rank vegeta tion which springs from beneath them. I have already_ described Cathcart's-hill Cemetery. The burial-grounds of the Light and Second Divisions have since ►ttainod such dimensions that it would be impossible in a iewspaper to give .even , an idea of their position, and of'the I.tonsainents they contain. Without pretending to offer a guide-book, or to notice the many sad memorials of our losseS and sufferings in the Crimea, a brief suppleMentary uotioe of .:OM3 of the principal burial -grounds may not be uninterest- ing. The French have taken but little pains with their graves. One large cemetery has been formed with great care and good tasto.near the old Inkerman camp, but in general our allies omit not enclosed their burial places. The Sardinians have erected a pedestal and obelisk of- stone on the heights of Ba laklava, close to their hospital, to the memory of their de parted comrades, and we have erected similar monuments on the heights of Inkerman and on the plain of Balaklava to commemorate the sth of November and the 25th of Octobers Chose will endure for ages if they are permitted to remain untouched by man. At the Malakhotl there is nothing but a large wooden cross at the head of a mound full of dead, with this inscription in white paint (sic) : " Unis pour la victoire, " Reuni par la most " Du soldat c'cst la gloire • " Du brave &est le sort." Outside the vineyard, at the English head-quarters, there is ti small graveyard which contains but two monuments. One, ormed of a large horizontal slab of marble, marks the spot ~vhere lies the body of our excellent Adjutant-General, and to addition to some Russian inscriptions has the simple words —" To the memory of Major General J. Bucknall Estcourt, Adjutant-General of the British army, who died of cholera, Jane 24, 1855. Bern 1802." The next is a handsome cross —" To the memory of C. R. Cattley, Esq. ' who died of cho lera while serving on the stiff of Lord Raglan, July, 1855." The rest are all nameless. In a small enclosure, separated from the natural meadow on-the slopes of Inkerman, near the most southerly point of the Russian attack, are three monuments. The centre is a slab of fine white stone lying horizontally on two deep slabs of larger size, so that they form as it were a small flight of steps. It bears a cross at the head and the following inserip sion " 41st Regiment. Sacred to the memory of Lieut.- jlolonel C irpenter, Captain Richards, Lieut. Swaby, Lieut. Taylor, Lieut. Stirling, who fell at the Battle o f Inkerman, November the sth, 1854 ; also of Assistant-Surgeon Lamont, who died on the sth of January, 1855." On the left of this is a horizontal monument of stone, in scribed—" Sacred to the memory of Sergeant-Major Spence, 41st Regiment, who was killed at the battle of Inkerman, on the sth of November, 1854, aged 28 years ;" and on the right is a smaller slab " Sacred to the memory of J. Lillies, pri vate, 41st Regiment, who was killed at the battle of Inker man." There are many other graves scattered up and down over the slope, of the hill, andba large enclosure is devoted almost exclusively to the 30th Regiment. In leaving the Inkerman plateau, and proceeding down the Woronzow-road past the burial ground of the Light Division, you come on the rear of Gordon's battery. Here many a poor fellow has been brought to die, and then has found - a resting-place near the scene of his last fight. Over one mound there is a stone, " Sacred to the memory of E. Churchill and W. Lattiman, killed 17th October, and of J. Radmore, killed 18th June, of H.M.S. Diamond." Further on, beh ind the first parallel, there is a monument, " Sacred to the memory of Serjeant R. M'Coy, H.M. 55th Regiment, who fell in the assault on the Quarries on the evening of the 7th Juue. Erected by his affectionate brother, John M'Coy, Colour- Sericant, 49th Regiment." This is an affecting prookof bro therly love, but somewhat further on two soldiers have given a still more conspicuous proof of the same feeling. In front - of the third parallel, and just in rear of the Quarries, there is a very haudsome.stone , slab, surrounded with a flue wall of cut stone. The slab is richly ornamented and carved, and bears the following inscription :—" Erected by William and James Weir, 47th Regiment, to the memory of their beloved brother Robert, who was killed in the trenches before Sebas topol on the 12th of July, 1855, aged 31. Also to Serjeant J. Keefe of the same regiment, who was killed at the same time and place.—' Blessed are the servants whom the Lord when : he comes shall find watchine—Luke 12." In a secluded ravine, once busy with frequent marchesand resounding with the roar of cannon, thebursting of shells, and - the turmoil of the neighbouring camps, lie all that was mor tal of those of the Naval Brigade who rest in the Crimea. The cemetery is enclosed by a wall, and is entered by a gateway, in good preservation. The first stone which strikes the eye is a handsome vertical slab of marble, with a cross engraved, and the inscriptions, " Requiescat in pace. Sacred to the memory of Lieutenant E. H. Hughes D'Aoth, late First Lieu tenant of her Majesty's ship Sidon, who, after having served nine months on shore with the Naval Brigade, died of cholera August 7; 1855, aged 31. years. This stone is erected by the captain and officers of her Majesty's ship Sidon iu testimony of their esteem and regard." The second grave is inscribed, " Sacred to the memory of.J. Nichols,. who was killed in ac tion on the Bth of September, 1855, aged 21. ' Unto the Lord I lift up my soul." The third is a simple memorial "To the memory of William Barry, • killed 17th, 1855, Him that cometh unto me I will in nowise cast out.' " No. 4. "To J. Pinhorn, late gunners' mate, her Majesty's ship Albion, May - 6, 1855, age 32." No. 5. "In memory of W. Hubank, W. Jones, S. Smith, and S. Wallace, killed in action ; erected by crew or her Majesty's ship Albion, in token of their re spect." No. G. "In memory of William, her Majesty's ship s lbion, killed in Greenhill Battery, April 9." No. 6. "To W. Haynes, beg Majesty's ship Albion." No. 7. "To Johu . Mullet, her Majesty's ship Leander." No. 8. "To C. Gas- . ton, her Majesty's ship Leander." No. 9. " To J. Tobin, died of wounds received in action.R Beneath is this - quaint in scription : • " I am anchored here below with many of the fleet, Put once again we wiliest sail our Admiral Christ to meet!' In the north-west angle of the enclosure are four graves with out stones. In the second row aro 17 graves, of which eight are marked by headstones. In the third row there are 13 graves, two of which have slabs and inscriptions to the me mery of seamen, named Collis and Hughes. The third -grave is distinguished by a fine slab—" To the memory of Lieutenant W. 11. Douglas, R.N., her Majesty's !ship Queen ; killed 11th April while serving in the battery with the Royal Naval Brigade at the siege of Sebastopol." Next is a fine monument Sacred to the memory of Lieutenant S. Twyford, R.N., who was killed by the fire from the Rus sian trenches while serving with the Naval Brigade, April 9, 1855," At the foot there is a handsome slab, with a similar inscription in Russian characters. In the same row (No. 5) there Is a substantial and massy monument—" In memory of Henry John Spalding, R.N . :, mate of her Majesty's ship Lon dou, killed in the trenches before Sebastopol on the 21st of January, 1855." No. 6 is to "R. Gardner, her Maje Sty's s hip London, killed April the 9th, 1855." In the fourth'row there are 13 graves—No. lis to " J Arnold, her Majesty's ship Leander, killed ou the Bth of June, 1855 ." No. 2, to " J. Pascoe, her Majesty's ship Leander, killed on the 9th of June, 1855.1' No. 3, to G.

It is in . scribed, memory of Lgeon Ilssher Hammett, Comman der, It N., of her Majesty's ship London, who was killed in thestrenehes'before Sebastopol, -August 17, 1855, While Serv ing with the Naval Brigade and in command of its batteries of the right attack." In the sth row are 13 graves. No. 1 is a small stone, " Sacred to the memory of Lieutenant T. 0, Kidd, killed in the action before Sebastopol, June 18, 1855, aged 24." No. 2is to "E. Collins, January 7, 1855." ,The other graves are nameless. On the 6th row there are 13 graves, of which only one is provided with any memorial, and this one is a large slab of wood already decaying and inscribed as follows :—" Sacred to the memory of the following seamen of her Majesty's ship Queen, serving in the Naval Brigade-be fore Sebastopol —George Sullivan, E. Eames, R. Ladrick, W, Good, 3, Morrows, 3. Duggan, J. Davison, F. M. Collier, W. Soulsby, J. Trim, J. Bryant, N. Harvey, W. Co M`D onald,. lips, J. Jones, B. Taylor, H. Hill, J.

Quinn, who fell in action in the execution . of their duty on the 18th of June ; also, of J. Murphy, J. Ennis, and M. Kearns, who fell in the storming party the same day, much lamented by their shipmates of H.M.S. Rodney." No. 2 is a large wooden slab—" Sacred to the memory of J. Glan ville, killed 9th of April, aged 23; S. Turner, killed in action April 11,' aged 25 ; J. Woodford, killed in actiou 14th of April ; Logan, killed it, action 6th of June ;J. Lane, W. Wheeler, R. Morris, J. Callinane, -J. Brooks, J. Swift, T. Short, Fullerton I'. Douaghuc. This board is erected by the ship's cetnpany'of H. M;S: - Wasp, in token of respect to their d epar ted shipmates." The gross grows green over these grav es, and numberless wi:d flowers have sprung up in the rich mould of the ravine. The enslosure is but a short way from the site of the mule of the Naval Brigade, but it is situ ated on the left-hand side of the ravine as you descend to -wards S ebaetopol, whereas the sailors pitched their tents on the rig ht,hand side. By the side of the road from Balaklava to the front there a re two gra veyards filled with slabs and with monuments in cut, stone, one erected by the Army Works Corps to their own officers and men who died here; the other, the work of the scene corps, in memory of the officers and men of the Land Transport Corps who fell by sickneSs in the Crimea. lu s the plain below the site of the Turkish camp, near head quarters, stands a solitary grave. It is enclosed joy a substan tial stone wall, and the head is marked by a handsome slab of oolite, or, white sandsfone, with au ornamental carving above an incised cross. On the body of the stone is engraved— , cred to the memory of Col. Balfout Ogilvy, who died July 12, 1855. This stone was erected as a mark of respect by his bro ther officers." Such isolated records are not uncommon. Peer O g ilvy I I travelled with him to the East when he Same out in February, 1854, to seek service in the Turkish army under his friend Colonel Cannon, and I soon heard of his distins guishitig himself at Silistrie., and subsequently of his gallant behaviour at Eupatoria. While the Turkish army was lying inactively on the hills near Lord Raglan's quarters he sickened and died just at the very time that Omer Pasha had triumehed over the scruples and objections of the allied generals to the removal of his troops to Ktrais. The burial -ground of the non-commissioned officers and men of the Brigade of Guards is enclosed by a substantial wall. It is entered by a handsome double gate, ingeniously construc t e d of wood, and iron hoops hammered out straight, and painted, which is hinged on two massive pillars of cut stone, with ornamental capitols, each, surmounted by a can graves, each containing 30 non ball. There are sa rows of or more bodies. Over each of these is a tombstone or a mound, fenced.inby rows of white stones with the initials or sometimes the name of him who lies below, marked on the Mould by means of pebbles. Facing the gate, and close to it stands a large stone cross, erected on a series of four mas sive blocks of the same materiel. On the west face of tl.e block supporting the cr ss are the words—" Cr withers, CoVstreanes, Scots Goads; A.D. 1T55." On the ofp ;site face is the following inscription—" To the memory Of the non-commissioned officers and men of the brigade of Guards who fell in the Crimea this cross was erected by their surviving comrades, AD. 1836." There are but few monu mental stones in. this cemetery ; one is a stone cross, with the inscription, "Sacred to the memory of Lieutenant A. Hill, 22d Regiment, who died June '2l, 1850. This stone was erected by his friends in the Crimea." Another is " lu memory of Serjeant-Major Rennie, 93d Highlanders. Erected by a friend." A third is " Sacred to the memory of , Serjeaut George' Mancor. Xrecised by a friend." A fourt hs is to " Quartermaster J. M`Donald, 72d Regiment, who died, on the 16th of September, from a wound received in the trenches before Sebastopol on the Bth of Septeqberi aged 35 Tears," IDAPERIAL PARLIAMENT. --.- -.'-',-..5,.- HOU3 OF LORD2--(This Day.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat cn the woolsack It a quaitcr past 12 o'clock. The Earl f DUNG-ANNON gave notice that early in the next session he should call attention .to the inaee pate remuneration of the commanders of the mail ships between Holyhead and Kingstown, •and also that he lhould move for certain returns in connection with - the administration of the poor laves in Ireland. TETE AUSTRALIAN MAIL CONTRACT.- The Earl of HARDWICKE begged to call the atten• ,tion of their lordships to the contract that had litely been entered into by the Government for the conveyance )f the mails to Australia. He disapproved of the terms of the contract, because he believed it:would ultithatcly •ie found impossible that the voyage could be madti iu the time specified in the contracts, - namely, 39 days for she outward voyage and 35 days for the homeward. A,c• cording to the speed at which the steamers of the company :ere stated to travel-91 knots an hour— it would be inipossible to accomplish the voyage within the time ,pecifiefl. It was true that a penalty of 1001. per day vas stipulated for the non-performance of the terms of the contract, but the company might very safely engage -o pay such a penalty, as the profits to be derived from he contract would be enormous. The situation of the colonies was thus not much imp,r3ved. As the Post ,naster-General was not in his place he could not expect ouch information ; but, as the house was not to meet on Aonday, he thought it his duty to make these observa• Lions. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY chid he was not in 'a position to give much information on the point, but he understood that the penalties for the non-performance :kf the voyage within the specified time would be str,ictly enforced, and that they would be amply sufficient to insiire the perfcrmance of the contract, and the Govern :neat had the power to terminate the contract if its provisions were not fully carried out. STOKE POGIS HOSPITAL BILL. The Commons' amendments to the Stoke Pogis pital Bill were considered and agreed to. EVIDENCE IN FOREIGN SUITS BILL: , The Commons' amendments to this bill were alsocm sidered and agreed to. THE' BISHOPS OF LONDON AND DURHANI RETIREMENT BILL.- The .Cemmons' amendments to this bill were•also con •idered and agreed to.

This bill was read a third time and passed. THE NEW PEER. Lord REDESDALE said he understood „that her Majesty had graciously signified her intention Of c (erring a peerage on the Hon. Edward Strutt, by the title of Lord Kingston. Now, as there was already a peer of that title, he thought some difficulty might arise by_two peers sitting. in that house by a similar title. •- • • • The 'Marquis Of LANSDOWNE said the new title was tolie Lord Belner. .The. LORD CHANCELLOR said that even :if it were true that the new peer - was to bear the same title as another member of the house, there were various' pre cedents for it. LEASES AND SALES OF SETTLED ESTATES BILL. The reasons of the Commons' Amendments to this bill were then considered. Lord REDESDALE raised an objection to the clause re inserted in the bill which restrained Sir T. M. Wilson from building on Hampstead-heath. The LORD CHANCELLOR moved that this house do not insist in disagreeing to the Commons' amendinents to this bill. . , _ After some discussion their lordships divided, when , • here appeared— For the Lord Chancellor's proposition lO, Against it Majority The Commons' amendments were then agreed te.i Their lordships then adjourned until one o'clock on Tuesday next. HOUSE . OF COMMONS.—(This Dal.) The SPEAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock. Several unopposed returns were ordered. LEASES AND SALES OF SETTLED ESTATES BILL. On consideration of the Lords' reasons for disagreeing to an amendment introduced into this bill in this house, preventing Sir T. M. Wilson from leasing Hampstead heath, . - Lord R. GROSVENOR, in the absence of the [ hem member for. Sheffield (Mr. Hadfield), moved that the home' Zio - insist on the amendment made in the bill by them on a former occasion being retained in the bill. -The amendment was then agreed to.without A divi• sion, and a committee was appointed to confer with the Lords on the subject. SCOTTISH BISHOPS. • Mr. GLADSTONE called the attention of the house to the recent .announcement by her Majesty's Overt'. inent, - of their intention to discontinue an allowance heretofore made to the bishops of the episcopal consrau pion in Scotland, and to the legal disabilities not appli cable to the Ministers of any other religious denomina tion in this country to which the said bishops and their clergy were subjected, in common with the episo,opal clergy of the United States of America, and he moved for copies or extracts of any • col.- resPontlence relating to the subject. The Bishop of the Episcopal Commission io Scotland represented an historic clergy, and being free from all tsint of suspicion in connection with - the ; Stuarts .tbe..descendants of the House of Hanover had treated with much lenitY and moderatiop...
