In our articles, under the above heading, of 12th and 13th of last March, we pointed out manifold advantages and the groat political import ance of the proposed canal from Rassova to lilts tendji. Oar - readers will remember that, on the terms of the late treaty of peace being made public; we at once treated the pretended abandonment by Russia of the left bank of the Danubeand her ap parent sacrifice of territory in Bessarabia as a per fect sham. It was plain to us that our tricky and faithless enemy, while plausibly affecting to yield much, had, conceded nothing but what she might easily recover whenever it suited her to resume her aggressive policy towards Turkey. The pro ceeding of Russia on the Danube since the peace, her destruction of the fortificatio ns o f I sma il, h e r occupation of Serpent's Island, and her retention of Balgrad, in Bessarabia, have fully justified our suspicions, and ought to have opened the eyes of the most credulous believers in Muscovite honesty. A glance at the Prussian military map of the country lying between the Danube and the Black Sea (as published by Mr. Wyld) will convince every dispassionate man that so long as Russia retains Bessarabia the true lino of defence for European Turkey is from Rassova or Chernavoda to Kue tendji. In support of this opinionme extract the following passages from an able paper originally ad dressed to the Admiralty by Captain Spratt, R.N., and which was lately read before the Royal Geogra phical Society, and also at the recent meeting of the British Association at Cheltenham : [ 4D.

" Being under the impression that the future deve lopment of the wealth of the countries bordering OR the Danube will lead to the adoption of some mode of transit across the Dobrudscha istiamm, and to the estab lishment of a port of refuge on this part of the Black Sea, I communicate my ideas of what seems most practicable at that locality, after a thorough examina tion of the country and survey of the harbour of Km. tendji. "As a completion of the project a breakwater would be required, first on a small scale, and enclosing a sheet of water as a mere mercantile harbour. Hereafter some thing on a grander scale might be carried out by an out lying breakwater, and thus eventually form a magnifi cent naval Station or harbour of refuge outside the mer cantile one, if desirable. " Galatz would then come to Kustendji, and Odessa would have its rival as a military and mercantile depot, if the advantages offered by the locality were thus pro perly developed. "Tile mercantile or inner harbour could contain 200 or 300 vevels, if the upper part were deepened by dredging. As the bottom is sand there would be no difficulty in obtaining five or sixfeet of additional draught of water—say in all 27 feet. * " Having in the foregoing succinctly sot forth the principal engineering requirements for the establish ment of this Simple and comparatively inexpensive, yet moat important, link of communication between the Danube and the Black Sea, and shown the local re sources for converting Kustendji into a commercial de pot of importance, I am induced to venture furkher, and to touch upon its high strategical importance in a mili tary point of view. " First, then, as Kusteudji stands on a promontory, John Cooper, agel 66; entered the sth Regiment in 1815; went to the Peninsula in 1809, and served there until he lost an arm in 1813 ; left the army is 1814.

John Smith, aged 72 ; entered the 6th Regiment in 180/ it seems to me that a semi circle of earthwork redoubt7s; with entrenc'aments in its rear extending from the sea cliffs on either side, would speedily and easily, with a few guns of good range and calibre, render Kustendji very formidable by land. The crest batteries gn the cliff 4, if properly armel, would make it equally formid able by sea. " Secondly, I would suggest the construction of simi lar inexpensive fortifications over Chernavoda (near Ras soya) ; likewise at certain points on the chain of lakes and swamp which extends more than half-way across the isthm us, and especially on the abrupt and highland on the south side of the Kara Su Valley. An enemy advancing from the north, and requiring to maintain his communi cation with Moldavia or Bessarabia by the Dobrudsoha, would be Usk, to be cut off by the Turkish forces at Kustendji and Chernavoda. "The swampy islands on the left bank of the Danube render it impassible for an army to cross that river at any point between Hirsova and Silistria. This conside ration increases immensely the strategical importance of the proposed line of defence across the Dobradscha Isth mus for the s ipport of Silistria and other Turkish posi tions on the right bank of the Danube." We understand that eminent Dutch engineers, probably the most competent authorities on such a subject, declare that it will cost less to construct a canal from Rassova to the Black Sea than to deepen and keep open the Sulina Channel: We have little doubt that the commission for the improvement of the Danube, about to assemble at Bucharest, will arrive at the same conclusion, and will recommend the Western Powers to relinquish the costly project of rectifying, deepening, and dredging the Sulina Channel. The proposed canal will much more effectually secure the objects of th© Allied Powers. It will confer inestimable benefits on these regions, devotope the natural riches of Wallachia and Bul garia, and put it out of the power of Russia again, by coup de main, to obstruct the trade of the greatest river of Europe.

The route, near the Town Hall and the Infirmary, and generally th e oughent, was kept by the poiaiipunder the. direction o Captain Willis, assisted by Sup er i n tendents f Sawley, Leary, Saynor, and Taylor. Captain Sheppard, assistant chief-constable of the county, was also present and rendered aid. The route was densely crowded; and at many points Sir Harry Smith was loudly and most heartily applauded. The old pensioners, too, were frequently re ceived with a cordial greeting; and some of the veterans, returning the compliment, cheered most heartily. Before the starting of the procession, the 7th Dragoons, under Lieutenant-Colonel Bentinck, had been drawn up within the Infirmary area, between the Portland -street corner and the building; while the 25th Regiment, under Lieutenant-Colonel Wells, was drawn up, two deep, along the front and the Portland-street end. On reaching - the area, tho mayor, with Mr. Alderman Barnes, the Lord Bishop, Sir Harry Smith, and others, took their places upon a slightly raised platform ; whil e the members of the two corporations, the pensioners, &c., formed within the enclosed space. All being ready for the ceremony, Mr. Alderman BARNES said—Mr. Mayor, my Lord Bishop, and gentlemen,—When, about four years ago, the Duke of Wellington died, England, and not England only, felt that she had lost ono of her noblest and most devoted sons. (Hear, hear.) Wellington, after a life of devoted. ness to his country, during the course of which he had rendered unprece tented and unparalleled service, both as a statesman and as a warrior, could not he expected to be allowed to pass away without having some suitable memorial erected to his memory in the city of Man. cheater. (Applause.) The inhabitants of this city at once met, and in a very short time freely raised upwards of 7,0001. for the purpose of securing a monument, if not worthy of the occasion, at least one that would convey to future ages the fact that the services of a Wellington had not been ungratefully received by the citizens of Man chester. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) As the mayor of this city at that time, I had the honour of presiding over the proceedings of the committee then appointed, whose labours are this day brought, and I hope successfully, to a close. (Applause.) I do unfeignedly regret that an indivi dual more able than myself does not occupy my position ; but I feel proud that I am permitted, however imperfectly, to take any part in the proceedings of this day. Happily, eloquence is not required; though all must feel that it is a glorious and inspiring theme. (Hear.) We are mot to act, not to talk. The scene around us is sufficiently suggestive; And any words of mine would miserably foil to give even an imperfect expression to the ehouelits which I am sure must now be stirring within every breast. (Hear, hear.) It is difficult to say whether it is in the character of a victori ous and successful warrior, or of a prudent and far-seeing statesman, that the memory of the great Wellington will be most prized by his graceful and admiring countrymen. But we shall see him represented in this admirable memo rial risotto of ourselves. We shall recognise the well-known features, whilst we shall be well reminded of that indomit able valour, which, ever aided and directed by extraordi ' nary wisdom, secured for himself immortal fame, and ob tained, happily for England, and f may say for the world at larg e that peace which had been so long uakr • .vn, and which brought in its train happiness and content to this country. (Hear, hoer) It is now my gratifying duty, Mr. Mayor, on behalf of the committee and of the sub scribers, to deliver over to you, as the representative of the corp( ratien of the city of Manchester, the memorial about to be mayoiled, of which I know the corporation will be come the faithful guardians. The MAYOR then stood forward and said -In the name and on behalf of the corporation of this city, I now accept from the hands of Mr. Alderman Barnes this beautiful memorial, which you will see as some as it lentils -piled ; and I can assure him that in *committing it to the care of the corporation of Manch ester, ho will find that it will be preserved, as he wishes it shall be, to the latest time. (Hear.) It would ill become me to detain you, as I know that one is to fellow roe «ho will speak of the me rits of that statue much better than I can do. However, I hope that, whon our Manchester friends thus see one statue rai: ed up after another to adorn the city, they will, when called upon in future days to subscribe for other noble and generous objects, be spurred on by the desire to see our town decorated with works of art such as the one that has just been presented. (Hoar.) I now at once command that the statue bo unveiled. The canvas covering in which the statue had up to this moment been enveloped was here withdrawn, and a simul taneous burst of cheering arose from the whole of the vast assemblage. The scone was one not soon to be forgotten. Everywhere around, in the streets, on the house tops and balconies, on the esplanade, and in the enclosure of the Infirmary, were vast crowds of spectators, of whom the jadies formed no inconsiderable portion. The sun shone forth brilliantly, and rendered more dazzling the goy uni forms of the 7th Dragoons, and of the numerous officers who were near the platform. The statue of the great duke, fresh from the hands of the sculptor, appeared to perfec tion; and the admiration of all who gazed upon it was sufficiently evinced by the enthusiastic cheers which fol lowed its uncovering. The two military bands played the National Anthem, and the cheers were long continued. When they subsided-- The Lord Bishop of .....-ArANOEIESTER said : Mr. Mayor and gentlemen,—You have done well and wisely to-day, in handing down to posterity a record of that admiration and gratitude which public and private virtue ever receive at the hands of Englishmen. (Cheers.) And you have done it with peculiar propriety on this occasion, in the presence of one who has shown that he was no unworthy pupil of Wellington—renewed cheers—one who fought that battle in which he acknowledged that the God of victory was with the forces of Victoria—that battle of which the Duke himself declared that, though he had read many an ac count of many, a battle, he had read none of any battle in which more ability, energy, and experience were displayed. (Applause.) I. liave promised not to detain you long ; soI ask you at once to join with me in rendering your tribute of approbation and thanks to bin whose artistic skill has enabled us to carry out this great, this good, this noble work—this lesson to posterity, that hero, among the other eminent men whom this city delights to honour, we can show how pure virtue, simple greatness and, grandeur, un blemished integrity and military skill, united with civil ability, are remembered and rewarded at the hands of Englishmen. (Hear, hear.) I call upon you for three cheers for Mr. Noble. This call having been enthusiastically responded to— Lieutenant -general Sir HARRY Seam, who was receiv ed with great applause, said—Mr. Mayor, my Lord Bishop, and gentlemen of Manchester,—l owe my all to his Grace the Duke of Wellington in my military career, as his country does all the honour and the long peace of 40 years which his sword achieved for us. (Hear.) Gentlemen of Manchester, I am proud to see this statue erected to his immortal memory. Thera is no man on earth who desired to exist in the hearts of the people as he did, by the un daunted courage, sagacity, disinterestedness, and honesty, which he ever showed. (Applause.) Proud am I, in the midst of this great city, to be complimented by a man of the great ability of the Lord Bishop of Manchester, Wu much as he has publicly again declared the sentiments en tertained of me by my immortal master. I thank you, my lord bishop, for reviving those feelings, although to the last breath I draw they cannot cease to exist in my bosom. (Then, looking to the statue, Sir Harry said), I feel grate ful to you, my noble duke, aye, as grateful individually as your country ought to do, and does, to you generally as a. hero, as a general, and as a statesman. (Loud cheers,) Long may the city of Manchester flourish, as it now does, in that devoted loyalty to our Queen and country, which i s as con spicuous hero as in any part of her Majesty's widely-ex tended dominions. (Applause.) The MAYOR thou called for three cheers for the Queen, which were heartily given, and followed by three cheers for his worship. Mr. NOBLE here stepped forward, and bowed his ac knowledgments to the company, who had repeatedly called for him ; and the ceremony concluded. The fountains were set plaving a s . soon as the m emor i a l had been exposed, and some little cennnotion was thus caused amongst those surrounding the basins; b u t no mei dent resulted. For a considerable time after the officials, the military, Esc., had left 'the groued,Piccadilly remained crowded; but gradually the immense concourse of persons separated, and traffic (which 'had been suspended in the neighbourhood) was resumed. The fountains conti nue d playing until dusk ; and until they' ceased the area was constantly crowded, and on all hands loud expressions of admiration were heard, they being pretty equally divided between the fountains and the memorial. The fountains played admirably. pre-eminent manner in which these were brought out in the character of Wellington is too well known to need explana tion here, and it is sufficient to state that they are personi fied in the design by the figures of Minerva and Mars, im agined and composed, it is humbly trusted, in such a way as to impart to the mind a high and honourable feelinT. The results of these great qualities were Victory and Peace—the victory of Britain over her foes, and a peace given to Europe , perhaps unparalleled in history. These two main results are per,onified by an abstract figure of each, designed to corre spond and accord in sentiment with the two former figures. Of the chief events in the public life of Wellington, illustrated in the design, four are represented in bas-reliefoon Die large plinth supporting the column, giving respectively the battle of Assaye, the battle of Waterloo (in each of which the Duke is sem on horseback, and in the first with the horse just shot under him), his presence at the congress of Vienna, and his receiving in person the thanks of the House of Commons, on the memorable occasion in the year 181 A. On the sum mit of the column is placed a colossal statue of the great duke himself, designed to give an idea of the moment when he stood erect and calm after having delivered the following impressive words in the House of Lords :—" I am one of those who have probably passed a longer period of my life engaged in war than most men, and principally in civil war ; and I must siy this, that if I could avoid, by any sacrifice what ever, even one month of civil war in the country to which I an attached—l would sacrifice my life in order to do it :'— words not likely to be soon forgotten.--In a small design of this kind, there is of course little more than a bare idea of the intention given." In carrying out the original conception of the composi tion, Mr. Noble has represented the Wellington of later days, when, to the renown of the warrior, he had added mach of the wisdom and sagacious prudence of the states man, and in both capacities had come to bo vener ate d b y his fellow-subjects as a man who had devoted a long, ac tive, and brilliant life to the service of his country and to the fulfilment of every high and every minor duty. Un covered, and attired in the well-remembered military frock (a badge of some order on the left breast.) with tight cravat or stock, slightly steeping, aiid looking down Wards, as when addressing the House of Lords in the memorable speech cited by Mr. Noble—the duke's statue is one that in future generations will "give the world assurance of the man." His right arm is declined, that hand grasping some Parliamentary papers; while the left arm rests on the top of a pedestal, over which his military cloak has been thrown, the folds of which, continued to the feet, give the advantage of drapery to the lower part of the figure, and conceal the sharp stiff lines that would other wise be left by the skirts of his frock. This, while it adds to the dignity of the composition, gives material strength and support to the pile of gnu-metal forming the statue. Behind the right foot, and resting on the lower folds of the cloak, are several volumes of the collected despatches, edited by Col. Gurwood. Stich are the few and appropriate accessories of the figure. As a portrait statue the work is really marvellous in its fidelity ; and it must at once claim the;admiration of thousands to whom the Duke's person, pe culiar bearing, and features were familiar during the last 10 or 15 years of his life. The - face is slightly turned to his right, and when its profile is caught in clear reli?f against the sky, his prominent features are at onco recalle 1 in a colos sal portraiture most satisfactory in its faithfulness and truth. But the statue is more than a portrait ; it is a work of art, a historical embodiment, that. may take its place by the side of any public statue of the present day. The four subordinate figures are seated at the foot of the pedestal. To Mr. Noble's description we may add that Mars or Talour (the proportions of which are slightly more colossal than those of the other three subordinate figures, which are female, as due to his sex and herculean physique) is the front figure to the spectator's left; Minerva or Wisdom being the corresponding figure to the right. The two other figures are—Tictory in the rear of Mars, and Peace behind (as in the train of) Wisdom or Minerva. Mars, wearing the antique helmet, is seated on a rock, his right hand holding a straight, short Roman sword, sheathed, and the point resting on the ground. The only drapery is the chlamys, the most picturesque and elegant of antique cloaks,—fastened by a fibula, or ancient brooch on the right shoulder, and falling in graceful folds around his oval shield, upon which rests his left hand. Minerva (the type of Wisdom), looking towards Mars, with her right hand pointing to the name " Wellington" (cut in the front of the plinth, in red Egyptian capitals), seems to connect the two front figures, in duo subordination to the principal subject, of which they are embodied at tributes. The goddess of wisdom, fully draped. is also *limed, and the ./Egis appears on her sandals. Victory, in the rear of Mars, being the figure next Putt:an:l -street, is fully draped, and wears a laurel chaplet ; she holds in one hand a wreath of oak leaves, and iu the other the palms of triumph, with which to crown and adorn the victor ; while the eyes, turned towards Peace, seem to indicate that if victory be the warrior e euerdou, so is p3aco the highest meed of victory. Peace behind Mi nerva, is a chaste and lovely figure, fully draped, with the cornucopia or horn of plenty at her feet, as typical of the blessings of prosperity in her train. Her heavenward eyes, with her left hand resting upon her bosom, while the right grasps the symboPc olive branch—all give a tone of gentleness, purity, and devotion to this figure, which has been greatly admired. The pedestal, which is throughout a fine specimen of the Aberdeen granite, is square, canted; the four subor dinate figures being placed on small projecting pedestals, one at each angle of -the chief pedestal. These minor pe destals have their fronts slightly convex, as if segments of a circle. The whole stands on a graded base of th: ee stops, of sufficient breadth to add to the general effect; _its upper else is gonneved, and its extent keeps the subor dinate figures from being too closely approached by the spectators. The inscriptions on the chief pedestal are : —On the plinth in front, the sole word " Wellington," in deeply-incisod Egyptian capitals, coloured red. On the side towards Mosley-street, between Minerva and Peace, "Born Ally 1, 1769; died Sept. 14, 1852." On the side next Portland street, "Erected by public subscription, 1856." The plinth in the rear is left blank. We may repeat, as items in the account, that the sta tue of the duke alone weighs five tons. The aggregate weight of metal in the whole being about ten tons. All the bronze castings were executed by Messrs. Robinson and Cottam, at their Pimlico works, and the Wellington statue is believed to be one of the largest dimensious of any that have passed under their care. The granite pe destal weighs about 100 tons. Its height, with the graded base, is about 19 feet, and the statue of Wellington is 13 feet, giving a total height of 32 feat. The statue of Sir Robert Peel, recently elevated some 3 feet 3 inches above its original height, has now a total altitude of 25 feet 9 inches. Of the bas-reliefs, as they will not be placed for some little time, we can only indicate the subjects, and their relative positions in panels preparedfor them in the plinth of tho pedestal. The battle of Assay°, the youne. Wel lington's great Indian victory (fought September 21;1803), will be on the rear face; the battle of Waterloo, which was Wellington's crowning martial achievement, giving peace to Europe (fought 18th Jane, 1815), in the front face. Between Mars and Victory (next Portland street) is a representation of the Congress of Vienna (held Nov. 3, 1814), whore the duke sat as plenipotentiary of Great Bri tain ; and, between Minerva and Peace, the duke receiv ing the thanks of the House of Commons in 1814. The character of the -Wklington memorial, as a whole, is that of a simple and graceful grandeur. It has great breadth and vigour of outline, and while both the statue and the figures below have an expression of animation given to them by their pose, attitude, and gesture, there is diffused throughout an air of dignified repose, which seems befitting a civic monument to tho memory of an aged and venerated hero. We have heard but one opinion of the work—that it is one which does honour to the sculptor, and will be a memorial worthy of the man com memorated, and of the city which thus gives outward ex pression to its deep-seated feelings of gratitude, regard, and admiration.

The inauguration of the Manchester memorial to the Late Duke of Wellington, which is placed at the Portland- • Area end of the Royal Infirmary, took place on Saturday afternoon; the ceremony being most successful throughout. It woulci be useless to attempt to estimate or guess the number of persons, residents and from the neighbourhood of Manchester, who assembled to witness the inauguration; any such estimate must be fallacious. We can simply say that the crowd was an immense one, 'extending far along Piccadilly and Market-street; and that, in addition, all the side streets commanding a view of the memorial were crowded almost as densely as the area and Piccadilly. In the neighbourhood of the Infirmary, as well as in other parts of the city, numerous flags and banners were dis played ; and many house-tops, and all the windows from which a view could be obtained, were occupied. Notwith- standing the extent of the crowd and the great pressure there was no accident of which we have heard, and only one or two oases of personal robbery have come to the knowledge of the police. We subjoin a general sketch of the proceedings in con• nection with the memorial, from the holding of the meet• ing at which its erection was resolved upon ; of the pry. ceedings of Saturday afternoon ; of the memorial itself ; and of other matters of interest. The Duke of Wellington died at Walmer Castle, at 23 minutes after threo o'clock, on the afternoon of the 14th September, 1552; his death, which resulted from an epi leptic attack, having been wholly unexpected and very sudden. So soon as the loss sustained by the nation could be fairly realised, a unanimous feeling arose, and was ox- pressed, that the funeral of such a hero and statesman must be undertaken by the Government, acting for the nation. That point being thus settled, another equally natural feeling arose ; it was not less de©p or general, but for its development and the completion of the object to the contemplation of which it led, communal action necessarily took the place of action for the nation as a whole. In all, the great cities and towns meetings were held; and at each it was resolved, without a dissentient voice, that some thing should be done that should show the gratitude and the regret of the community, as well as serve to perpetu ate the memory of the great departed, his deeds, and tho estimation in which be was held by his generation. On the 25th September, 1852, we announced the inten tion to hold a meetingnf the leading citizens of Manches ter for the object mentioned; and a meeting, numerously and most influentially attended, was held in the Town Hall, on Tuesday, the 28th September. The mayor, Ro bert Barnes, Esq., was compelled, from ill health, to ab sent himself ; and the chair was occupied by Alderman Silt John Potter, the ex-mayor. Mr. Thomas Bazloy, presi dent of our Chamber of Commerce, proposed the following resolution : That in order to testify the high admiration entertained by this community for the exalted talents and distinguished pub lic services of the late lamented Duke of Wellington, both as a soldier and as a statesman, it is, in the opinion of this meeting, desirable that a statue should be erected in Man. chester, by public subscription, to his memory, iu grateful recognition, as well of the transcendent genius and undaunted courage which, under Providence, secured to himself the ro putation of the greatest general of thp age, and to his country the enjoyment of prosperity and liberty—as of the delibera tive wisdom, disinterested judgment, and noble spirit of pa triotism, which over directed his endeavours to perpetuate and extend-the invaluable blessings of peace. The resolution was seconded by Frank Ashton, Esq., thou mayor of Salford; and it was unanimously agreed to. The subscriptions obtained by Mr. J. C. Harter, and some other gentlemen previous to the meeting, together with those given at the close of the proceedings, amounted to 2,5751. By the Ist October, the amount was increased to 3,937/. ; on the sth it had reached 5,4001.; on the 15th, 6,4201. ; on. the 211, 6,797/. ; and it was subsequently increased to more than 7,0001. - - - • - About the close of the year it was determined to estab lish in the metropolis a " Wellington College ;" and the question was raised here, as elsewhere, whether the local subscription should be given in aid of that general object, or be devoted, as it first resolved, to a Manchester memorial to the Duke. In this city, the matter caused but little dis cussion ; the feeling being very decided that Manchester had raised the necessary means, and ought, from her position, to do honour to Wellington for herself and accor dant with the views of her citizens. On the 10th February, 1853, we were able to announce the decision come to by the committee appointed at the general meeting, as to the first step to be taken in pro curing designs for the contemplated memorial. The com mittee had (speaking generally) resolved that a certain number of associates of the Royal Academy, and other sculptors of celebrity, should be invited to compete; each competitor being at liberty to send in two models, but not more. Sculptors other than those invited were to be allowed to compete, upon specified conditions. If it should be decided that the design selected as the best in point of artistic merit could not be erected, from considerations of site, cost, or otherwise, the committee would pay to the contributor of such design 2001. ; but in case such design was carried out, that payment would not be made, nor, under any circumstances, was any reward to be given to unsuccessful competitors. To the artist of the selected de sign the committee undertook to pay 7,000/. for the erec tion of the statue ; that sum to cover every expense con nected with the work of producing the statue in bronze, as well as of the pedestal, Sum All the models were to be sent in anonymously. The 6th August, 1853, was ap pointed as the last day for receiving models ; and the re sult of the competition was, that 37 models were sent in by 29 sculptors, eight of them having each forwarded two. The models were arranged in a suite of rooms in the south gallery of the Royal Institution, which were placed at the disposal of the committee by the council of the institution. The committee had during the interval allowed for com petition agreed to leave the decision as to the most merito rious model to the Earl of Ellesmere and the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Manchester ; they being directed to chose a third umpire to act with them. Lord Ellesmere had, however, been chosen as the representative of the British people at the New York Exhibition ; and the de lay which resulted from his visit to America in his official capacity was prolonged by an attack of illness to which his lordship was subjected immediately after his return. So strongly did hi. lordship feel the unfortunatenoss of this delay, that, knowing some time must further elapse before he could come to Manchester to act as umpire, he sent in his resignation, and urged that the Ea;l of Wilton should bo selected as his substitute. The committee, however, were most decidedly averse to losing the services of the Earl of Ellesmere, provided they could possibly be secured ; and it was felt, also, that were his resignation accepted, there would be much difficulty in selecting a third umpire whose position locally, combined with his artistic taste, was such as to be likely to give satisfac tion to the competitors, the public, and the subscribers. The Earl of Ellesmere was, therefore, urged to withdraw his resignation ; the urgent appeal of the committee was supported by the Lord Bishop and the Earl of Wilton ; and his lordship acceding, the Earl of Wilton eras chosen as the third umpire. This was about the end of October, 1853 ; and on the 4th November, the three umpires assembled at the Royal Institution, and unani mously agreed in selecting as the most meritorious, and for erection, the model which proved to be that sent in by Mr. Matthew Noble, who had previously been selected unanimously, from amongst a very large number of com petitors, as the artist of the statue to Si: Robert Peel, which it had been determined to erect in the Peel Park, Salford. At the time of the selection, the statue on the pedestal of Mr. Noble's model represented the Duke in middle life, and in military costume ; but Mr. Noble sub mitted two other designs for the statue, one representing the Duke in early life, the other in advanced ago. We stated at the time our reasons for approving of the last named statue, in preference to either of the others ; and it was subsequently chosen unanimously by the umpires to be substituted for the one upon the pedestal. The 37 models were exhibited to the public for a week, and daily attracted large crowds of visitors. Since the commence ment of 1854 the sculptor and the founders have been at work ; we have occasionally noticed the progress of their labours, and the details as to the erection of the pedestal must be fresh in the memory of our readers. THE INAUGURATION. At one o'clock about 200 gentlemen sat dean. to a cold collation in the large room of the Town Hall, which had been provided by the committee, the guests comprising many of the friends of the committee, subscribers to the memorial, and the members of the corporation.

This view, it is hoped, has been realised in representing the Duke in his civil as well as military capacity, ,by personifying those salient qualities and re , sults through which ho had attained so highs positibn in life, and influenced the destinies of so many nations; and by illustrating five of the chief crowning events in his public career, through which in the twofold capacity named, hr, will be best and most illultriously known to posterity. The salient qualities referred to are Wisdom and Valour. The "ART. VII. i " With the view to augment the profits of the com pany, the Imperial o.toman Government will allow, at the places specific,' for that purpose at both extremities of the canal, the erection of warehouses and entrepots for grain and warehouses. " The Imperial Government grants liberty to land and store in these warehouses and entrepots, and to with. draw therefrom, and to convey elsewhere, grain and mer chandise, without subjecting them to any duty or charge whatever. It further grants full and entire liberty t) convey, in transit, on the canal, and to transship from one vessel to aaother, grain and all kinds of merchan dise, without subjecting the vessels or their cargoes to any duty or charge whatever. " ART. XI. "The tar fixing the dues to be levied by the com- pany on vessels making use of the canal, as well as the port light and anchorage dues to be levied in the new port, shall be hereafter adjusted by the Imperial Go vernment and the company. "It is, homer, expressly ilipulatcd that these dries shill be the same for evcry nation, and that no favour nor exclusive privilege of any kind shall ever, under any pretence, be grauted to any nation. " ART. XX. "In the event of a railroad being determined on from any point on the Danube to any p on the Black Sea, as this now mode of communication might compete with the canal, the company shall obtain the concession there of in preference to every other party." Within the la , at few days some of our contempo raries have announced (we think prematurely at all events) that Galatz, Reni, and Ismail are to be made free ports. It must, however, be borne in mind that they cannot be made such without the concur rence of Moldavia and the Sultan, whose revenues would suffer thereby ; whereas, the privileges of free ports have already been granted to Kustendji and Rassova—an additional reason for completing the canal.—From a contemporary. MURDER OF TWO INFANTS AY KENSINGTON. Ou Mouday evening as inquest took place at Ken sington Workhouse, before Mr. &ant, the deputy cord'. nor, and a jury, relative to the deaths of two infanta (twins), whose bodies were found on Friday in the shrub beries at 31, Pembroke Villas. Mrs. Jane Saunderson, the wife of a railway police• man, deposed that she had the charge of 81, Pembroke Villa% About 8 o'clock on Friday morning she was in the back shrubberei of the villa, when her attention was attracted to a bundle lying under the wall. On examin ing it she found to her great horror that it contained the bodies of two intant9, male and female. She was so much alarmed: that she ran into the house, and when somewhat recovered weht . out and returned with a police con stable. By the Coroner—l can form no idea how the bodies came where I discovered them. The wall of the grounds is about five feet high, and the bundle could have been thrown over. There is a public thoroughfare outside the shrubberies. I have no suspicion of any party. By a Juror—The bodies were wrapped in a strong coarse cloth—with this exception, they were quite naked.
