The Independence Beige publishes the following letter, dated Neuchatel, 29th ult. :—"OurCantonal Grand Council adopted in its two last sittings, various resolutions, referring to the Royalist insurrection of the 3d. The Administrative Council of the capital of the canton, which remained completely passive, during the nocturnal invasion of the band of - La Segue, and obeyed with extraordinary conde scension the requisitions of the insurgents, has been not only suspended, but the powerful cor poration over which it presided, the bourgeoisie of Neuchatel, has been abolished as a poetical and ad ministrative body, to make room for the municipal authorities, at the same time that the considerable property it possessed is to be applied to the wants of the citizens. The decree, erecting the city of Neuchatel into a municipality was Toted by 4S members (33 Government Republicans and 15 Independent Rep u bli cans ) aga i nst 32, 25 belong ing to the Royalist faction and seven to the Independent party. MONEY MARKET COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLoax. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed firmly, without any - material change. The sales Were estimated at 7,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken for export and on speculation. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, at a slight decline in prices. The Marseilles portiOn of the overland mail has been delivered this morning. Trade at Melbourne is described as being steady, but business with the diggings was checked by the bad state of the roads. The production of gold was satisfactory. The Bank of England Return, for the week end ing the 27th ult., is very unfavourable, and some surprise is expressed at the rate of discount not having been raised last week instead of on Wed nesday. The reserve of notes, and the Stock of bullion have been sensibly reduced, while the other securities show a material addition. The next balance•sheet will, no doubt, be much worse, as large sums have been taken from the Bank for Shipment almost daily, while the applications for discounts have, of course, been to an enormous amount. The following exhibits the results of the present statement : Active Circulation Inr £20,224,230 435,035 11,769,372 Rest 363,230 3,754,416 Increaselo,s2l Public D epos i ts Increase Other Deposits Decrease Seven-pay and other Bills 927,399 Increase Government Securities No alteration.

The shipments of specie by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Pera, amount to 778 ,703/., of which 3,713/. is gold for Alexandria, Ceylon, Madras, and Singapore ; and 775,0501. silver for Bombay, Calcutta, Penang, Singapore, Hong Kong, Canton, and Shanghai. The Ottoman Bank Directors have made a call of 51. per share on the capital stock of the under taking. A meeting of those friendly to the establishment of Tribunals of Commerce was held to-day—Mr. Tyne in the chair—when Mr. Hutton read the Paper intended to have been read at the Congress for Commercial Reform assembled at Brussels, but referred to a sub-committee on account of the pressure of business before the Congress. The Paper read pointed out the evils attending com merce, and the advantages offered by Tribunals of Commerce as established in France. Arrangements are still in progress for the re sumption of the business, under a new title, of the firm to whose embarrassments we adverted yester day. A good demand for money prevails, owing to the payment of a large quantity of bills due to-day, the fourth of the month. The F un d s h ave been flatter this morning, prin cipally in consequence of the unfavourable Bank Returns, and the rumours still current as to the robable cessation of specie payments by the Bank France. Consols have been 92. g for money and the Bth inst., but they are now about 92g The November price is 92 93. Exchequer Bills are firm at 7s. to 10s. premium ; the Bonds are 99 to 99g. ; and East India Bonds 10s. premium. The Foreign Stocks are heavy, and the transac tions are limited. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 991 and the 4 per Cents. 1001. Mexican Stock is steady at 221 I. Russian 41 per Cents, have been 96k, and Brazilian Small Bonds 100. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks : Grenada Deferred Bonds, 61 to 71 ; Mexican, 22 to 221 ; Peruvian, 77 to 79 ; 3 per Cent s ., ditto 55 to 57 ; P ortuguese 3 per C en t s ., 43 to 45 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 106 to 108 ; ditto 41 per Cents., 77 to 79 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 421 421; ditto Deferred, 24i 24i ; ditto Certificates, 4 ; ditto Passive, 6f Railway Shares are all at a slight decline of about N. to 10s., and business is dull. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings attract little attention, but the French are firmer. The Pernambuco Shares are par to prem. Mines, Banks, and Miscellaneous Shares are quiet.

"Reminiscences of the War in. the Easq," by a Military Chaplain, ar e con ti nue d , and credit is given to the army for a degree of piety in many of its members, by no means dreamt of prior to the late war. A "Memoir of Field-Marshal Viscount Hardingo" is supplemented by a further respectful notice in the Editor's Portfolio; of course the time has not yet arrived when the merits or demerits o: the deceased in his several capacities can, with pro priety, be rigidly scrutinised in . these col umns . A s usual, there is a large amount of information almost exclusively interesting to the professional reader. Au article, in which is set forth the defenceless state of Harwich, the only port worthy of the name between the Thames and Hull, may, in conclu sion, be recommended to the reader's special atten. tion. Pald.l RAILWAYS. Leastig Companz. Clothie Primal Hasa yesterday. this di Blackwood.—Eloveu more chapters of "The Athelings " acquaint us in+imq t , -ly eriettfh with the , I , anestic econoiii) of To , Will(iwF.— Agnes and Marian cultivating their acquaintance with Mrs. Edgerley, in that charming suburban. retreat of the London Fine Lady, and finding thillir fortunes becoming somehow more and more involved - with those of the grand and haughty house of the pale, spasmodic-visaged Lord Winterbourrin. There Comes flitting once more across the scene, too, the gay, gaudy splendour of Sir Langham Portland. The instalment closes with the return h omewards of the two charming young heroines of the tale— the Genius and the Beauty—to Islington. A grace ful, gossipping paper of a critical and poilitical cha racter, entitled " Wayside Songs, 'anginal and Translated," follows : a chapter of sweet ly rica l snatches, borr owe d f rom li ps as genial, al id musical, and amber-dropping, as various and as eloquent as those of Coleridge, and Goethe, and Byron, and Heine, and Spenser, and Lytton, and Shelley, and glorious Will Shakspere singing to us in the melo dious tones of the merry knave Autolychus. Alto gether the article brings to us the freshness and the flavour of May May with its daffo dils and bluebells, " the sweet o' the pm year," with its cowslips and its violets —in the very midst of the ripening fruits and yellowing leaves of October 1 " Our Tour in the Interior of the Crimea" is a sort of after thought, completing, as by a postscript, the annals of the late war, contributed to Maga month aft ar month by Colonel Hawley, the lively author of that plea sant serial story, entitled " Lady Lee'il Widow hood." The next article we take to be the, article of the month, and commend it—" with a hteart and a half "—accordingly. " Mr. Buttle's Review" is the title of it. And a delectable piece of pleasantry _ it is altogether. So delicious in its quiet humour and its acidulated scarcasm that we are tempted to fix the paternity of it upon a satirist-humorist no less eminent than the immortal Bon Gaultier, otherwise William Aytoun, the Poet of " Both well" and the " Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers." It is another roasting of the Spasmodics—al most as , :clever and flaying as " Firmilian." What can possibly be finer, for example, than th© notion in regard to the new generation of Small Young Poets (frogs trying to blow them selves out to the size of oxen)—than that of the waiter at the club who, while pou r i ng ou t th e i r small beer, frothy and thin, sneers at them as the "gents that tried to come it strong, and couldn't." The article is glorious—one of the old aspergings of vitriol vouchsafed every now and then by Maga for the mannikins of literatur e . "F am il y His tory" is a comprehensive review having reference to the Lindsays and the Lamle of Caldwell, to gether with those of Jervisvvood and the Castle of Balcarras. Afterwards we have a third chapter of " Sea-Side Studies"—a miniature prose contribu tion beaded "A New Una' . '—and, lastly, a critical paper on "African Travel," relating to Richard Burton's recent Explyorations.

" The Joint- Stock Banker, a Tale of the Day," by Dudley Cos tello, is continued, and in the present instalment its title, it must be admitted, is amply verified. The October instalment of " The Spendthrift," a tale of the last century, is hardly so successful in the above particular, the fact, however, arising from no artistic demerit on th e p ar t o f th e di st i ngu i : h ed writer. " The Oxonian in Norway," and " The American Expedition to Japan," will interest a large class of readers. "The Young Clergyman and his Anti-Macassars" is an amusing caricature of what is said frequently to take place in the early bachelorhood of popular and good-looking clergy men. The satire is carried out to extravagance. "British Army Refomi" is treated as a necessity of the day, with what liberality may be gathered from the following :—" We would not recommend the promotion of non-commissioned officers as a general rule in England ;" i.e., we suppose we would only now and then have them elected from the ranks. A radical change in our military admi nistration is insisted on. Our army, it is said, is still very weak for any offensive war. We should have 125,000 disposable troops, with 300 guns." " Mingle Mangle," by Monkshood, delectable alli terative--the euphony of which is positively melt ing, though " Mingle Mangle" was used by rough, honest Latimer—heads an entertaining and instruc tive chapter on letter-writing and letter-writers.

In " The Last House in C—street," we have " a verit able ghost story," with something of tragic inte rest. " Protestantism, from a Roman Catholic Point of View," is a review of the " Cathelisimo interno al Protestantesimo ad use del Pepoli," by Dr. Perome. The first part of a " Journal of a Tour in the Crimea, 1856," will repay perusal, though the Crimea may be deemed pretty well exhausted by this time. The archaseiogist will find a paper to his taste iu the first part of au article on "Ancient Gems." Guizot's "History of the Protectorate of Richard Cromwell, and the Dawn of the Reformation," is reviewed. M. Guizot is said to write at once like a Protestant and a Frenchman. The most interesting article in the number, to Englishmen of a literary taste, at least, is the following---" Shakspere and his Native County." While some have plodded among the material records of the sovereign poet's exist ence, and others in contemporary literature, the writer has devoted his powers of research to the discovery of traces of Shakspere's familiar speech, form of expression, ittc., in his native county. The result is not merely a readable, but also a useful paper, throwing light on the poet's works. The "Memoirs of the Life and Writings of James Montgomery," by John Holland and James Everett, are subjected to severe censure, too severe, we fancy, so far as the latter is concerned, who has written pleasing biographies. "The Angel in the House" may be regarded as a vindi c ati on of the sanctity and peace of well-assorted married life— the angel being, of course, the lady. " The Two Tappers" is a brief sketch or reminiscences of Eton College, in which Dr. Keats figures as a tyrant of the birch, and the innocent Tupper is " consider ably victimised" before the offen iing Tupper is detected. The final article of the number is de voted to a consideration of " The Kingdom of Naples ; Its Present State and Future Prospects. The Neapolitans are recommended to have patience, but the description given of the hereditary Prince and what is known of him is not of a nature to back the recommendation. Dublin Universty.—The story of" The Darragh"' is concluded this month ; it is an interesting one, and towards the end becomes very exciting. The natural manner in which the hero ma k es t h e mo mentous discovery relating to the forged will is ably arranged. It is a sati s f act i on to the reader w been bett er h a d h e b een hen the it ghwavreetch Kildoon is di s p ose d o f, although arrested for his crimes, instead of being allowed to escape out of the reach of justice. Murellos is a crafty and cunning man, who c l ever l y outwitted Kildoon by preserving the proofs of the forgery they had concocted between them. Th e " For tunes of Glencore" do not exhibit any great progress or striking novelty in this portion, the complicated narrative is continued. The scenes are a ll i n I taly, where the hero is becoming celebrat e d f or hi s genius in the arts, still watched over by his faith. ful friend Billy Traynor, who certainly exhibits more sense and method than any of the mighty personages among whom he moved. " Cyprus " forms an instructive paper on the peculiarities of the place. A description is given of a hunting party, which, it is said, though exciting at the time, did not bear retrospection, as it was con ducted in a barbarous style. It is remarked further on that it is through his body, not his mind, that the Cyprist must be moved, and that any missionary who desires to exercise au influence upon him must benefit him physi cally. An article entitled " Poetry, good, bad , and indifferent," contains many just remarks on the present state of things. It is lamented that there are so many compositions published without consideration, as they are created without due re flection. "We aro a verse-writing nation ; the danger is that we shall cease to be a poetic nation." in descanting on the folly committed by those who rush into print, it is said, " We have never learnt the great lesson of life—to wait. It was not till the idea of 'Paradise Lost' had lain germinating for half a life that it sprang into the stately tree. It was not tillthe calm twilight of existence had fallen round the path of the Great Puritan that the Epic of England was composed." Lamartine's " Holm me de Lettres " forms the subject of an interesting study as will be supposed. It is his literary career, not his political life, that is here considered, as is foretold by the name of the article, and therefore the admirers of genius may agree in the praise be stowed, without the drawback of party feeling intervening, or angry discussions arising. In con clusion, the writer observes that the work he is now engaged upon is a characteristic one. " His own spirit converses with the great ones of the past, and the world is invited to their cornmunings." " Notes upon New Books" contains criticisms upon some of the best works of the last year, and " au Autumn Eclogue " is a collection of verses adapted to the season. ! Tait—Appropriately enough commences an arti cle on "London Joint-Stock Banking," with a quo tation of the eighth commandment, "Thou shalt not steal." A. practical consideration of the evils attendant on the present system of joint-stock banking, as exemplified in the history of the Royal British Bank, leads to the recommendation of seve ral principles of a curative tendency. These, it is said, the Premier should embody in a legislative enactment, which might render banking by joint stock companies as safe in England as in Scotland. Among the recommendations is the prohibition of private book-keeping in such establishments—th e joining of auditors and directors with the managers in penal liabilities if they return bad debts as good, or as part of their available assets-..the restraint of such parties from speculating on their private account—and, as " imperatively necessary," the repeal of Peel's Banking Bills. " Ras Mala," a chronicle of the Province of G-oozerat, by Alex ander Kinloch Forbes, H.E.1.C., is the basis of a readable paper. " The Coast of Norway" is con tinued, and the celebrated "Maelstrom" receives p.c. till July 1. - '561 all Waterfd.& Kilk.6pci The New Monthly.—This number opens with the first a series of papers by an old contributor, who writes under the name of Sir Nathaniel. It is entitled "Notes on Note-worthies, of divers orders, either sex, and. every age," and tho first name in this comprehensive list of celebrities is that of Sir Robert Walpole. The writer is evi dently well acquainted with contemporaneGus his tory, and gives an interesting selection of the opi nions of modern writers, foremost among them, Mr. Macaulay, and M. Chasles. A tale entitled " The Delayed Will " continues the story of Ashley, which has appeared in some recent num bers. A paper on " Austria and Sardinia," gives a list of their respective military forces. The writer upholds the Austrian despotism, though he can ad vance no very powerful arguments for so doing. He says, " Were the Austrians masters we should be certain of hearing of no rebellious movement, and the peace of Italy would be insured." He also considers the constitutional government of Pi e d. mont to be highly overrated, and adduces many instances of credulity or crime, but he does not appear to have better evidence than that of Mr. Bayle St. John, whose opinions and style do not qualify him for an authority on such matters. The writer considers the Italians ought to feel deeply indebted to Austria for having been kind enough to take possession of their territory. " Austria ap pears determined to defend her territory, eou trance, and we really ought not to blame her, after the lives and treasures she has already ex pended in that ungrateful country." How much to blame, then, must those persons be, who, when thieves break into their houses, after bein g p u t t o inconvenience and expense in effecti ng au entry, despatch them to prison instead of o ff er i ng them a compensation for their trouble " A Swedish Voyage round the World" is translat e d b y M rs.

" A Pap er on Old Trees " will be very interesting to all lovers of arboricul ture, and, indeed, to all interest e d i n historical ,fhatshebeen the sub jectcypress tree associations. Among the . sylvan celebriti es recorded ap of one of Frances Browne 's momai in St his ot m p pleasing poems. Two criticisms on two very oppos i te works e irn Lombardy, mention s m w a h d i e c h n will afford entertainment to the curious. They are on Victor Hugo's " Contemplations," and C o l one l Chesterton's " Revelations of Prison Life," and are both interesting in their different ways. J. E. Carpenter contributes the commencement of a story entitled gc The Talker and the Worker," which promises to be a simple domestic tale. "The History of the Newspaper Press," by Alexander Andrews, brings down the narrative to the first Stamp Act in 1712. its share of notice. "The Supreme Court of Ap peal and Peers for Life" again engage attention ; and "bred" is reviewed with fairness. Among the lighter contributions are some entertaining "Notes on Spirit-rapping, in which Dr. Achilli figures as a dupe. In the Literary Register will be found a commendatory notice of " Wallace ; a Tragedy." It is described as " clever " and, to judge by an extract, possesses graphic force. The Journal of Agriculture.--A paper on the "Sciences applicable to Agriculture" possesses a good deal of interest for those who take pleasure in the progress of agriculture in this country. " Agricultural Notes in Ohio and Michigan " in troduce the reader to the transatlantic farmer, the capacities, cultivation, and growth of his fields, and reveal a marked and growing prosperity in the Free States, possessing'a good outlay for produce, and in Canada. "A Few Notes on Land Drain age : Its Progress and Projects," is, to a consider able extent, a digest or resumg of the important paper recently read: by Mr. J. Bailey Denton, be fore the Society of Arts, and which has been the subject of much useful discussion. " The Trade and Commerce in Eggs and Poultry" is a paper of general interest, furnishing at the same time, for the special consideration of the farmer, a variety of useful statistical details. The writer remarks, " It has been well observed that poultry is a kind of stock which fits in readily with other animals, consumes produce which would otherwise be wasted, requires little space, and yields a return during life, as well as when killed, for the market. The counties of Bucks, Norfolk, Cambridge, Kent, and Surrey derive large profits from their supplies of eggs and poultry - to London. From three to four million head of poultry are annually sold in the metropolitan markets. Why, however, should we be so dependent on the Peninsula and the Con tinent ? Why should we receive supplies from such distant quarters, , as Egypt and America, when our domestic produce could be so considerably in-; creased ? This is a question we have often heard asked, and which in general meets with an unsa tisfactory answer from the farmer. During the first six months of the present year the number of eggs imported has amounted to 68,062,600. This is in the proportion of double the amount imported annually in the seven years ending with 1847. The value of the poultry imported in the first six months of . the present year was 15,6741. against 18,0001. in the corresponding six months of last year. The following mode of testing eggs is given : "Take them into a room moderately dark, and hold them between the eye and a candle cr lamp ; • if the egg be good, that is, if the albumen is still unaffected, the light will shine through with a reddish glare ; while, if affected, it will ha opaque cr dark." . A very few trials, it is added, will show any one the ease and simplicity of this me thod. Averaging the value of the eggs, poultry, and feathers, etc., we receive from foreign coun tries—it is equal to nearly 400,0001. per annum, and there is no reason, adds Mr. Simuninds—the writer—why a ll these, by proper attention, should not be produced in the kingdom. " Tao Vine yards of the Rhine," however profitably cultivltecl, it would appear by no means presen 1, , like th e vineyards of Italy a .picturesque appearance. 4‘ The Farmer's Notebook" offers, as usual, a good deal of serviceable information, including a description of " Guano Frauds, and how to detect them. Among the remaining contents will be found au able essay on " Agricultural Drainage,"• by John ,Lockhart Morton—which obtained for' Few Remarks are oneo°lllritrAll?litaUr;itle'deliScyerau.nieda:la instruction" pre faced by a pretty direct intimation that the lessons of the war may be more wisely turned to account by improving the or Qf our army and the administration of the depaytrnerit3 connected with it, rather than in distracting ourselves about the maintenance of its numbers. The " Remarks" are well worthy of perusal. The transference of the Coast-guard from the Custotus to the Mini rally, to be governed by the revised Coast-guard instructions, and the securing to the warr i ors o f the Baltic their presAit privileges and immunities, ' are recommended to the Ad miralty by a contri butor. The second of a series of cg sk etc h es o f French Admirals" introduces the Comte de Grasse, • an able and enterprising cortuna'Ader, contempo rary with Washington, indeed an ally i n t h e W ar of Independence.

A review of Spanger's "Life of Mohammed," and Freeman's " History and Conquests of the Saracens," will re pay perusal. Tho imposture and the impostor be ing ably dealt with by one who seems u4embar rassed by mock candour, and unprepared to sacri fice truth. Emerson's "English Traits" meets with but little of that reverence the disciples of the American philosopher may be supposed to deside rate. Actually the author is recognised as the great new Gulliver, and his discoveries as contra dictory, and mostly inventions. Ferrier's "Cara van Journeys" furnish materials for an enter taining descriptive paper, which is followed by a discriminating review of "Life's a Dream (from the Spanish of Calderon), with an Essay on his Life and Genius," by Richard Chenevex French. Among the remaining papers may be noticed those respectively, headed "Les Mariages de Paris and " Washington." Oxford and Cambridge. —The study in Shak spere for the month—we suppose the writer means to go through the principal plays—is " Twelfth Night, or What you Will," supposed to be the thirty-fourth and last written of Shakspere's plays. " The serene yet warm light shed- over this drama," it is said, "may be likened to the golden summer afternoon sunshine, whose beams lie wide on the green sward of some far -extending common —slope upward on the branches and foliage of the oaks with which it is here and there bestudded, glance on the tall feathery ferns, glow on the fox gloves and heath, nor forget to penetrate with pure light the transparent cup of the delicate, slightly trembling blue-bell." The writer proceeds to search out Shakspere's Principles of Love, as shown to us in this his latter, if indoed it be not his last, writing," and displays a good deal of deli cacy and discernment. The Commercial Travellers' Magazine. Kent and Ca.—Another new serial—its promoters rightly judging that this intelligent and enterprising body are entitled to a magazine of their own. While "party politics " are to be avoided, the large class of political subjects of a national or social character are to be treated in an impartial manner, and mat ters of especial interest to commercial travellers are promised due attention. The present number contains a variety of the usual magazine literature, and promises fairly for the future. - wwwwwi. .-....- soldier now feel s hi mse lf a bl e to take h i s place with those of his rank and condition in life, and if you will go into any of our barrack-yards you will find them now with schools of instruction, with reading-rooms for -n'en-com tnissiened oflicrs a”cl soldiers, with plaits for recreation an 1 exercise, a7i.l"'77Tii- will rind them leading a life of Christian usefulness, lam proud to say—for religion has developed itself wonderfully in the ranks of the army—a life of which we may any of us be proud, and in which we may not be ashamed or afraid to trust our own little ones. _ But other matters of politics have of course engaged my attention, of various descriptions. .I.lnon these I will not at present touch, but I may remark that I have returned to find this county still, as ever, repro - sented by those whose object it is to advance constitutional liberty and to go on increasing instead ofdiminishing t he political powers which are disseminated among the great body of the people. (Cheers.) I have always been one of those who have never been afraid of trusting the people with political power. I have always thought the more confidence you put in a man or in a body of men the more you will find them responding to that confidence, and using the power with which you entrust them well. I have lived to see changes take place which I have heard cried down as revolutionary, and which even now the most squeamish Conservative has brought himself to call con stitutional. (Cheers.) I see in this county three gentle men representing it —my noble friend Lord Duncan, the county member; my frie n d M r . G eorge D uncan, the mem ber for Dundee ; and my friend Mr. G eorge B axter, the member for the Montrose burghs. The records of the ses sion tellyou how these gentlemen have attended to their public duty, and I think w e may congratulate ourselves that f g honesty, f or hi gh public in tegrity, of thr ee b etter men thin does n talent, o for county boastssterl in the county of Forfar. (Cheers.) But I confess I have been somewhit surprised—and I take this oppor tunity, not principally of addressin g your ears, but of addressing those " chiels" who I See "are takin notes, and faith they'll prent thest"--(laughter)—upon a point which my friend Mr. Baxter has alluded to very much in some of his public orations in this county; and I do it not to quarrel with my excellent friend Mr. Bax ter, but rather to point out, as a member of her Majesty's Government, and somewhat interested in the judgment which is passed upon their measures, how a man may de cry and give a wrong colouring to the acts of the Govern. ment, and so bring into discredit a Government which otherwise it is his object to sustain. The point to which I especially allude are the remarks which my friend Mr. Baxter has made upon the English Police Act. The reason why I am tender upon that subject—perhaps Mr. Baxter does not know it—is because that happens to be a child of my own. (Laughter.) If anybody is in fault for having brought that measure forward—a measure fall of all the vices of centralisation—l am afraid I must plead guilty to that fact, because in 1839 and 1840, when I was Under- Secretary of State for the Home Department, I passed that measure through the House of Commons. It was then brought forward as a measure optional upon the counties for which it was passed, in order to induce these counties to look to their own interests in the way of the restriction of crime, instead of doing that which was the universal practice of these times to do —making the British army the police of the country, a pur pose for which the British army was never intended. In the year 1839 and 1840 we took the first steps to better 'uch a state of things, and that Police Bill enabled every county to institute a police for itself. It was only per missive, but so far from considering it an unconstitutional measure, rather more than one-half of all England and Wales voluntarily adopted that which Mr. Baxter has condemned. And this year, upon the principle that whore the half of England had undertaken to destroy' all the vicious vermin in the different counties—upon the prin ciple that these vermin all fled to the place where there were no police set up at all, those parts of England which had adopted the Police Act loudly and very properly de manded that the measure should be compulsory over all England instead of being merely voluntary. Nothing could be more reasonable than that ; but in what consists the centralisation—for that is the point upon which my friend Mr. Baxter is so very loud ? He says he voted against it because of its centralising qualities. Now, the only centralisation that exists in that act is this —that if the police in a county is kept up in an efficient state, and reported to be such by Government in spectors, one-fourth of the expenses of that police are to bo paid from the Treasury ; and in order to ascertain that the payment of that one-fourth is merited, surely it is right that the Government, acting for the rate-payers of this country, should be assured in the first instance that they are paying for a good article, and not for a bad one. Now, that is the only centralisation that exists in that act, and I have the satisfaction to tell my friend Mr. Baxter that if ho had the opportunity of voting against that mea sure as applied to England this year, I suspect most strongly he will have the opportunity of voting against it as applied to Scotland next year. As I stated before" I am sorry to have troubled you with this subject here, but I have made these remarks in no hostile spirit to Mr. William Baxter, but merely to show that a measure of a Government may be traduced upon grounds which really do not exist. Having said this much, I will now again refer to my private connection with you all here present. Whatever I may be, and however I may disappoint in some cases, this I will say for myself, that you shall never find me inaccessible to any one of you, be he the chief I tenant of the estate or the poorest and humblest cotter that bolds from me. (Cheers.) And the reception that I have met from you this day convinces me that the more I know you the better I shall like you, and I hope I may add also the reverse, that the more you know ine the better you will like me. (Cheers.) I wish to drink all your good healths, and pray that God may bless you in all your interest, both civil and religious, so long as we are spared to live together. (Cheers.) THE LATE LORD HARDINGE. --.-..-...---,.,. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR, —ln the series of letters you have been good enough to publish far me, an important one is omitted, and as there seems no reason, I fear that by some over• sight it was not sent ; it is my reply to the note from the Editor of the Times. Permit me also to remark that the Editor's note to me was not in answer to my first note to him, but in answer to my statement about Albuera, which he returned.— I remain, &c., W. NAPIER, Lieut.• General. Oct. 3, 1856. (Copy--No. 4.) Sir William Napier presents his compliments to the Editor of the Times ' whoever he m a y b e , and b egs to inform him that h e has mistaken his position. S r WfllMin Napier did not ask for the help of the Times to sustain his statement of the part taken by the late L•,rd Harding° in the battle of Albuera. The.Tintes, in almost direct terms, called for Sir Wm. Napier's help to sustain its own statement of Lord Hardinge's conduct. It was given, and the refusing of it is a matter of indifference to Sir William Napier. The tone of the refusal indicates a very low sense of selt•respect in the anonymous writer, and whether it shall be accepted as a private communication will depend upon circumstances. Salado llouse, September 30, 1856. To the Editor of the Times. • .ABEIWROMBIE'S BRIGADE AT ALB UERA. TO TILE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—At the crisis when all looked adverse at the battle of Albuera, Abercrombie's brigade was ordered from the extreme left of the line to advance in open column and double quick time to the point of struggle. It did so advance for more than a mile, on level ground, ruder a fire of forty pieces of artillery, right well served. It was my lot, as senior lieutenant (Claktain Wyatt hav ing been seriously wounded), to command the Gre na di er s of the le a di ng reg i ment, the gallant 34th.

Journal and the Mechanics' Magazine are both addressed to those practically engaged in manufacturing and mechanical pur suits.

At a dinner given to the noble lord by his tenantry, at Castle Edzell, on Thursday last, his lordship spoke as follows : Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,—lt is long since the walls of this ancient castle resounded with such cheers as these, denoting the affection of the tenantry for a landlord who cannot boast that he has yet done much to acquire these affections. I look upon them yet rather as heredi tary than as actually earned, but I look forward to the time when I may b 3 able sincerely and fairly to earn thorn. (Cheers.) It is extremely gratifying, my friends, for me to receive from you this testimony of your attachment, which is more congenial to my heart—and I say it without hesitation—than any of the public honours which have fallen. upon me during a now pretty long life. (Cheers.; Honours fade away, popularity is proverbially evanescent, but the kindly affection of our neighbours lives with us as long as we live, and, I believe, in many instances where it is well merited, long survives us. (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) It has not been my good fortune to be thrown among the tenantry of this estate until more than fifty summers and winters had passed over my bead. Circum- , stances to which it is unnecessary to allude have made my life a somewhat eventful one; and that which I deplore perhaps more than any other feature in it is that so much of it had passed away before I was enabled to cultivate the kindness or even to study the interests of those who are now under my charge as a landlord. (Cheers. Ever since I had the good fortune to succeed to the vast posses sions of my ancestors, calls of public duty have not per mitted me, I may say, to take up my residence among you. These calls, I trust, are only temporary:, and I most cordially join in the wish of your chairman that the time may not be far distant when I shall be enabled to take up my home in the home of my forefathers, and to cultivate the acquaintance of those to whose interests it is my duty to look. After the passing of the Reform Bill, when'you were enfranchised, and when I was enfranchised myself for the first time, circumstances threw me into the melee of politics, and in 1835, under the auspices of a man whom I always look up to with the greatest respect and &fraction —I mean Lord John Russell--(cheers)—a man who has elevated the liberties of his country to a higher point than any man living—l entered public life first as his Under Secretary of State. Under such a master, gentlemen, it was my good fortune to learn nothing but lessons of constitutional liberty, and to the lessons then learnt, and the friendship then formed with that noble lord, I trace my subsequent success in political life. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, from ono step of politics to another I have gone, filling various offices ; and I thought that upon the retirement of Lord John Russell's Ministry my political career was drawn to a close—l mean my public career in politics, because I hold that. every man in my position ought never to lose sight of the politics of his country, although ho may not be officially connected with those who administer them. But when my noble friend Lord Pal merston took office I was invited to accept the office of Secretary of State for War. Lord Palmerston stated it to me as his opinion that my experience would be of benefit to him in his Government, and under these circumstances I did not hesitate to accept the office tendered to me. Up to the present moment I have enjoyed not only the full confidence of my noble friend at the head of the Govern ment, but such able assistance from him as has enabled me to conduct the affairs of that office with satisfaction to my own conscience. I believe if the Duke of Newcastle had remained in office—if that clamour—for I must call it clamour, which drove him from the reins of the office in which I succeeded him—had not occurred, he would have succeeded as well as I have done in bringing the army round from the state into which it had unfortunately fallen to the state of "discipline and of improvement in every way in which it left the shores of the Crimea. (Cheers.) But there were some steps which were taken by me which I think did 4 groat deal, not to bring the army especially from its low estate, bat to prevent the consequence of that low estate upon the return of the ensuing summer; and I think that no greater benefit has accrued to the army than resulted from the labours of the sanitary commissioners, consisting of Dr. 'Sutherland and others, who were sent out by me to the shores of the Cri mea, who by their skill and foreknowledge removed all offensive matter from the camp, and prevented that which every one was prophesying with horror —namely, the rage of contagion and disease when the hot weather set in. From the exertions of these gentlemen, and from the man ner in which the commanding officers of the army, from the highest to the lowest, seconded their efforts, no con tagion broke out in the ranks of our gallant forces; and from the time that spring burst upon that island, nothing but health pervaded the army, and they loft the Carnea and returned to England in a state of health unknown oven at home. (Cheers.) I will not detain you long with re ference to myself, or the affairs immediately committed to my charge. I would only say, with regard to the army, that it has been my study' to improve the condition of the soldier from the first moment that I had his interests com mitted to my charge.. (Cheers.) I have endeavoured to elevate him from the position in which some 20 or 30 years ago he was found: He was then to be found either in the parade ground or in the canteen, with no pursuits to elevate his mind or expand his intellect. I have en endeavoured to rhiso him from such a debased situation, and to give him a thirst for kutmelteige, and an -opportu eity of cultivating those talents sshich he helds in com mon v.itir the rest of the community; and I thank God that those endeavours have not been unbl, , ssed, and that the army at this time may present its ranks to the farmer, and the shopkeeper, and the manufacturer, as being a fit profes sion for th e i r c hild ren , w ith ou t th e i r l eav i ng that ariny In the course of a feev years debased and degraded, as they would have done in former times. (Cheers. ) I look upon the improvements which have taken place in the comforts, in the education, i n th e m o ra l condition of the soldier to have been among the greatest boons that have been con ferred by sueceeeivo Governments of country...
