Had there been an honest intention to injure or humiliate the adversary, a decisive attack on Sebastopol would have been the very beat course that could be adopted. But there was no such intention. The necessary preparations were not made for the purpose. Nothing could possibly have been achieved with the existing materials save by a sudden coup de main while the enemy were still depressed and panic stricken by their unexpected defeat at the Alma. But that was cautiously avoided, and there were not, and Mr. GLADSTONE took care that there should not be, adequate means for conduct ing a protracted siege. Hence the calamities that occurred, the fearful loss of life among the Allied forces, and the protracted resistance of the Rus sian stronghold. But these were matters for which the Aber deenites were chiefly, if not altogether, responsible. They had contrived to secure for their own party a monopoly of the offices connected with the Administration of the War, and, as is unfortunately but too no torious, they took their inspiration from a quar ter, that would neither hurt Russia nor oppose the dictates of Germanism, however unpalatable to the country or injurious to its best interests. Hence the misconduct that aggravated tenfold the evils of the War, and hence, we fear, the dic tation that led to its "most lame and impotent conclusion." . .

On Friday next another attempt will be made to obtain tardy justice for many families, who, although truly described as "of religious and moral character," have been driven into opposition against a tyrannical and oppressive law—one of the last and most intolerable remnants of the systematic attacks on the civil and religious liber ties of the subject. On that day the Earl of ST. GERMAINS, who has displayed great zeal and efficiency in hifs management of the important and interesting subject, will bring forward the second reading of the Marriage Law Amendment Bill, for the purpose of legalising marriage with the sister or nieceof a deceastd wifo. We need scarcely refer to the number of times that measures of a similar cha racter havC, olkained the sanction of the represen tative branch of the Legislature, or how frequently the well expectations of the parties in terested, have been defeated by the Fabian policy resorted to by its bigoted opponents. We need not explain how the advocates for restriction on the most sacred and inestimable privilege of free men, have been driven step by step from the theo logical grounds adopted in the first instance, and how they have been compelled to acknowledge that there is no express or inferential Scriptural injunction against the practice recognised in every Protestant country, and only requiring a dispen sation in Catholic States. The question now stands on a doubtful and, we may add, obsolete Canon of the Church of Englaad—which is not assented to by a large number of the most eminent and enlightened Prelates and Clergy of the Establishment. Flow then can the large and rapidly-increasing body of Dissenters--who see no possible objection to such connexions—be bound by what they ex pressly repudiate ? In other respects the demon of intolerance has been banished from the Island. man may now avow his religious convictions without dread of penal consequences, and worship his CREATOR in the manner which in his soul and conscience he deems most suitable, withou being subjected to any disability, save one— and that of the most vexatious character, He may be prevented from contracting a marriage calculated to insure, his own happiness, and to greatly benefit his orphan children ; and this, Although satisfied that it. is not prohibited by the law of GOD, and that, if he possesses wealth sufficient to leave the country for a tem porary residence abroad, the matter on which his heart is set, may be legally effected. It is a cruel, an iniquitous law, and the more so, because it affects the poorer classes, while their wealthier brethren ;an break through its paltry trammels. We trust that justice may at length be rendered to these long-suffering and much-wronged persons, and not merely to them, but to their innocent children, who may bo deprived of their rightful in heritances, by the infamous enactment. It must be remembered that the advocates for the-abolition of these unjustifiable restrictions du not, seek to coerce the consciences of any man or 4 )04 of men.. They merely demand that those who see nothing wrong in these unions should have permission to act in accordance with their uwn conscientious views; and that demand. being based on equity and justice, must ultimate!y prevail. The following is a brief abstract of the provi ions - of the bill introduced by Lord Sr. GER \lams, and the second reading whereof will, we - rust, be carried on Friday evening, viz.:- 1.--The first Clause repeals so much of any Act or Acts of Parliament as prohibits such Mir- Odges. 2.—The second Clause provides that no such Marriage which has been, or shall hereafter be, celebrated at any time or place, shall be void or voidable by reason of the affinity of the parties ; and that, for the future such Marriages may be 'awfully celebrated before a Registrar, under the Act known as 6 and 7 William IV. cap. 85. 3.—The third Clause excepts a Marriage of this description, contracted during the subsistence of a previous Marriage of either of the parties ; any such Marriage followed by a valid Marriage of either of the parties during the life of the other ; and any Marriage dissolved by sentence 01 a competent Court. 4.—The fourth Clause protects all rights which have accrued under the existing state of the law, up to the time of the passing of the Act. .s.—The fifth clause confirms all judicial, ad ministrative, executory, and trust proceedings. G.—The sixth Clause relates to the solemnisa- tion of such Marriages by Clergymen of the Church of England, and provides that they shall not be required to solemnise such Marriages, nor be exempt from ecclesiastical censure if they do. 7.—The seventh Clause provides that neither o f the PARTIES to such marriage shall be liable to any censure or punishment. B.—The eighth Clause excludes Scotland from the operation of the Bill. It is now certain that the Chancellor of th e Exchequer intends to give the go-by to the Cur rency question; and, if permitted to do so, to place it on the shelf for the remainder of the session. The Right Honourable Gentleman has apparently taken a leaf front the book of one of his prede cesiors, and pursues the tactics of Sir CHARLES WOOD im mediately after the supensiou of the Bank Charter Act in October, 1847.

Considerable doubts have from time to time ;been expressed, both in Parliament and by some of the public journals, respecting the policy of the _invasion of the Crimea and the attack on Se'oas topol. It has been positively asserted that the movement was made without the privity or assent ,of Austria ; that the Cabinet of Vienna had at the very moment arranged to take an active part in the operations of the War by an advance 01 a large body of troops on the Russian frontier, *hich would inevitably have included the Russo- Polish territories within its scope ; and that the course then adopted was the real cause of the Austrian tergiversation and backsliding. On the first part of this case we shall express na opinion. Our contemporary has usually ex cellent information, and would not be inclined,-to put- forward a distinct and po sitive 'statement without prima' facie evidence of its accuracy, and we fully concur in its views or the treachery of the then Povernment of Eng land. t was, in fact., the deliberate determina tion - of Lord ABERDEEN, and the colleauues whom had contrived to place at the head of all the departments connected with the management of tbp . War, that no real injury should be inflicted on Russia. The " dear and excellent" Premier vould not hurt his "friend of forty years' standing," who had been betrayed into the pre mature development of his intentions by the ad vila to office of the Joint-stock Administration. A demonstration was all that was ever contem plated, which it was hoped would have indneed the AUTOCRAT to postpone the administration of the sick man's assets to a more convenient season. But we cannot believe that Austria would, under any circumstances, have acted with good faith or straightforward in tegrity, or that she would have taken any step that might have committed her to hostilities with her quondam friend and benefactor, or by any possibility have conduced to the benefit, perhaps the resuscitation, of much -wronged and deeply. inflated Poland That she might have held out hopes to that effect is by.no means improbable. That she might have endeavoured to procrastinate, and to per suade the Allies not to besiege the Russian strong hold is:. very likely. We are prepared to lend an easy credence to any degree of duplicity and in sincerity that may be alleged against that treach erous and selfish Power. lint nothing could have led to her drawing the sword against a for midable enemy. .She would only be valiant in tyrannising over and oppressing , those who ex.uld offer no serious resistance. It would have been well if, from the beginning angst'-the list symptoms of indecision, the Allied P ( 4'etit 1194 altogether ignored her existence, and treated her as the ywere subsequently obliged to do Prnisia. Had the British Ministry been in earnest at that time, when Louts .N.arotsoN had no tiscent dynastic considerations to influence his coruct, the War would have been brought to a speedy and satisfactory conclusion. But it was "starved" under the " penny-wise -and-pound- foolish" financial administratio n of Mr. GLAD sToiri';. and the morbid sentimentality that spared Odessa, and strove to wage a rose-water contest, A Grand Ballet Divertissement entitled THE ENCHANTED GARDEN.

It is said that " familiarity breeds contempt." Those liv ing in the neighbourhood of Vesuvius will dance and carouse although unequivocal indications of a coining eruption are manifested. Miners will cast aside their safety lamp; notwithstanding the undoubted presence of the terrible ohoke-clamp, and, in like manner, our merchants and manufac turers are willing to enter into contracts, which, it consequence of the state of the monetary code, become gambling speculations, rather than legiti mate commercial transactions. They see persons engaged in the same line of business as themselves periodically involved in bankruptcy and ruin. They behold families reduced from comfort and happiness to all the miseries and privations, incidental to pinching poverty. They know that those who have been so fortunate as to weather the storm in these frequent trials have been compelled to submit to, the most serious losses, and yet they are contented~ to go on, plucking the roses that grow at the side of the crater, without thinking of the terrible penalty that must one day be paid for the in dulgence. fray vvill not be wanting if those -who-have hitherto suffered only prove themselves to be earnest and resolute in their determination. Among those things which every ono interested in the stability of our colonial dominion must especially desire, the judicious development of the resources of - our Indian Empire cannot but occupy a prominent place. Though stripped of those illusions with which stories "of princely spectacles, dazzling in their barbaric splendour, and of re turned nabobs, as much oppressed with a plethora of wealth as of . bile, had invested her—lndia is stilt a glorious appendage to the British Empire. To wide-spread plains of approved fertility, and exhaustless stores of mineral treasures, she adds— what "other colonies only give a promise of here after—armies of docile native labourers prepared to work them at the cheapest rate, and through that working presents the prospect of a field for commercial enterprise at home, which the most ardent longings should be satisfied with. The countless millions of India, possessed of the means whiCh labour, directly and indirectly, bestows, to indulge their inclinations for the little luxuries of life which in Europe pass for necessaries—how itiggeStive the thought of increasing wealth and ?rosperity at, hume. TPA consummation so devoutly to be wished for, a grand railway system, as we have previously showia—in addition to the canals, bridges, and -roads-now in existence,- or to be constructed—is essentially rieee*ry ; and it is, therefore, with much satisfaction we learn from the best authori ties that-the trunk lines now in course of construc tion is making satisfactory progress, and that dif ficulties of a most formidable nature have been surmounted by engineering skill. On the 9th inst. it was stated by Mr. STEPHENSON, at a sumptuous banquet given at the Albion to Mr. JAMES BERKELY, the Chief Resident Engineer of the Great Indian Peninsular Railway Company, on the occasion of his return to India, that having ,brought the line to the Ghauts, in the west of India, Mr. BERKELY had conceived a plan by which these formidable ascents might be scaled—a plan so feasible, as to elicit his (the speaker's) warmest admiration. This difficulty overcome, and the reader may form soine • idea of its nature when he is told that the Ghauts present greater engineering diffi culties than either the passage of the Semmering to Trieste, or the Giovi Incline between Tilde and Genoa nothing seems to stand between the desired end in the shape of insuperable natural obstacles. What remains is perseverance on the part of the railway capitalists, and a fair conside ration of the claims of railway enterprise on the part of the'lndian Government. That such per severance will be displayed is a matter of cer tainty ; and from the countenance already given by the Indian Government, we have but little apprehension that the required encouragement will be withheld. No fewer than 1,450 miles of main line have been laid out in India under Government sanction, and of these 800 miles, in cluding the Ghaut inclines, have been conceded to the Peninsular Railway Company for imme diate construction, and the company, at the pre sent moment, having finished 90 miles, has 220 more in a state of rapid progression. Native labour, as we have already 'intimated, .dst forth coming in abundance, and, under judicioua treat ment, the native labourer seems likely -to emu late the example of his European brethren, as do the Sepois that of: the 'lmperial troops. In this fact thpre is cause for hearty congratulation to all whci look forward, from whatever;'., motive, to a prosperous future for India. Let ns hope that the Indian Government may prove equal to the mighty responsibilities now resting upon it and do what lies in its power towards the full development of, the Indian railway system. Tha 0 :, The moneyocraoy are well aware of this extrc ordinary weakness. They strive, when the public mind has been unusually excited—when the trad ing population find that the fruits of their indo mitable exertions are diverted from their legiti mate channels, and that their profits are absorbed in the enormous charges for the indispensable, pecuniary accommodation, to postpone this dis cussion ; and this Fabian policy, having invariably proved successful, is again resorted to. But will those who are so deeply interested in the result sanction this pettifogging and disreputable course —will they admit the specious pretext that in the middle of April, almost before Parliament has settled down steadily to its work—it is " too late" to do anything, or to hope to make any great progress in an inquiry of the kind ? If they do so they may at once relinquish the hope of ever ob taining relief from any grievance, however flagrant. They will always find red-tapist Professors pre pared to assure them that the question is either " unseasonable and premature," or too late for the application of an efficient remedy. The great question at issue between the advo cates of monetary restrictions, the currency " pro tionists" and the free-traders in money, is whether it is capital or currency that is wanting. "Mer cator," himself—the " high financial authority" of the Times--or, in other words, Lord OVER STONE, the real author of the Bank Citarter, ,leas put forward that plea, and his disciples cannot, complain if issue be joined in the questiott se lected by their chosen leader. He has declared that " changes in our currency laws, or flucta tions in the amount of our paper issues, can neither increase nor diminish the amount cf capi tal." We fully concur in that view of the case —which is decisive in favour of the Currency Reformers. It cannot for a moment' be suppOsed that capital has • been suddenly annihilated, that the accumulated and realised , property of the nation—its millions and tens of millions of horses, oxen, cows, pigs, and sheep—ita "dirty acres," and well-constructed - 'dwelling houses, and mag nificent buildings, public and private, its railways, implements of husbandry, shipping, furniture, ornaments of art, agricultural produce, manufac tures, merchandise, and all the other results of accumulated labour, could be destroyed a mo ment. If such were the case we should be poor indeed, and no issue of paper money nor, abun dance of bullion could produce a remedy. The grievance would be one of substance, not of form, and we should submit with the best possible ;race to the inevitable evil. Bat the Times itself, while adopting the arguments of " Mercator," tells us that we are the richest country in the world, that Vie sums expended in the recent War are a mere trifle compared to our extraordinary and elastic resources.. It has been, in fact, scarcely one per cent. on the actual wealth of the country, to say nothing of the thews and sinews of its' in habitants, and the power of creating new capital if all we possessed had really been destroyed. accomplished, there will be little cause of appre hension from Russia ; and with the ability to pour duwu the strength of the empire on tho in vader will ,come the reduction of much military expenditure, and the direction of the class which furnishes our Sepoys to a more p©a•ceful and re• - Ittunerative employiuent. • , ARRIVAL OF LORD CLARENDON IN LONDON.—Lord Clarendon arrived at Dover in her Majesty's steamer Vivid from Bou'ogne at 3.35 p.m. yesterday, and, after a brief stay at the Lard Warden Hotel, proceeded to town by a special train at 4.34 p.rn.

A new aisle has been added to the original building from funds derived from the same source as that above mentioned,, and a beautiful chancel; erected att.klcost exceeding 2,5001., by the munificence of the head master, Dr. Vaughan. These additions to the chapel have been designed by Mr. Scott, who has also furniiihia plans for the complete reconstruction of the original portion of the building, calculated to require 4,0001. in addition to the sum already expended.

COATANTINOPLE APRIL 10.--The review of the British troops at Scutari by the Sultan on Mowlay last was very succ-ssful. The time fixed by the &ham for the review was 5 o'elock,A'urkish time, or about half-past 10 in the morning.' A little before 11 everybody was on the ground. Among the Turkish dignitaries who had arrived was Fuad PaSlia the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Generalissimo Omer- Pasha, and Mehmed Ali, the Captician Pasha. 'The coup d'ccil was striking. At 20 minutes past. 12 the sound of the guns placed on the cliffs behind the Barrack Hospital announced the arrival of the Sultan, when Gene ral Storks with his staff, and the Ambassador with his suite, rode down as far as the village of Scutari to meet him.: 'Soon after, the whole cavalcade, augmented by the cortege of the Sultan, appeared on the summit of the plateau, where it was received by the sound of " God Save the Queen." His Majesty, with the Ambassador and — Generar Storka to his left, then passed be fore the line of infantry. Already, at the first stele;- his —attention was, attracted by the bear skins of adptachment of Guards and Highlanders, who occupied . ithe extreme right of the line, and he stopped to address some questions about them. When passing the Polish Legion, which was forming the extreme left of the line, Count Zamoyski, who .commanded - them, w as presente d, to his Majesty.' Among the cavalry the 12th Lancers, mounted on their I n di an h orses, seeme d. above all to strike his eyes. •Having passed thus both lines in review, he'placed himself in the centre, and the order was given to the troops to wheel round by companies and troops. It' was now that all the advatrtages of the ground became apparent. 'As the troops wheeled round" on the summit of the inclined plain yo s a saw them coming down for some distance, while the eye could follow those - who had passed for a great while longer, so that the eff ec t was much m ore i mpos i ng from being concentrated, and the troops looked double their number. In front of all"came the detachments of Guards and Highlandern although scarcely two companies strong, comosed of different regiments and clad in every kind of uniform, yet the size of the' men, their soldier-like expression, and the steadiness of their step, produced a good effect under circum stances in, which 'most ether troops would have ap peared ridioulOue- The'y were followed by de- All we at present ask for is inquiry—for that full and ample discussion of the whole subject which, according to the bullionist organ, " cannot be arranged too soon."

We desire that the amount should be . regulated, Rot by a private ansi. irresponsible Corporation, looking mainly to its own profits, but by a public department, answerable to Parlia ment and the country for the discharge of its vita lky important duties. We wish the nation to obtain the benefit of the gains to be derived therefrom, and not to be compelled to pay heavy sums for the interest of paper, which may just as well 'he issued on its own account, and to save the enern tout wear and tear of bullion and the inte rest tl kereof, literall y wasted by the absurd prohi bition of small notes.

It is confidently stated that the King yester day ratified the treaty of peace concluded at Paris. OUR ARMY IN THE CRIMEA. CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, APRIL 8. The weather has at last assumed the mildness of spring, fcir the few weeks that the army will have to remain in the Crimea it may be expected that picnics, shooting, fishing, racing, and drill and ball liArceiCe, will form the principal business of our lives, until everything ,is prepar e d f or em b ar k at i on. The preparations for the departure of the army continue actively, and already several hundreds of the Army Works Corps have been shipped at Bala klava, and have gone on their way homewards. • Iri addition to the ordinary duties of the Land Transport Corps in carrying up provisions and stores from Balaklava to the various camps, there will now be the trying work of convey ing -from' Sebastopol all the shot and shell within the English portion of the town. As to collecting, and removing these missiles, which are sown broadcast in the very soil like peb bles on a beach for the space of seven miles in length and two miles in breadth, the task is hope less of execution. Piles of shot have t)een formed in every ravine, and stand there as monuments of the uselessness of such efforts as have yet been made to gather the iron shower which fell for 11 lenginonths in front of Sebastopol. Every water course is full of iron —shell, shot, and splinters of strange shapes abound in every ravine. The Russians will only have to collect what the Allies leave behind them' to form large magazines of shot, but shell will not be so plentiful, as they ware more sparingly used, and were generally damaged, if they did not burst. Guns, too, are buried in the earth, and peer out from the earthwork of overthrown batteries., It was only yesterd ty I passed some five or six flue English cannon, apparently 32-pounders, which had been line down the side of the ravine from the French battery overlooking the Dock yard Creek, and were lying upside down in the., ground; Tire Artillery are daily engaged iu slinging guns and mortars, and sending them down, to Balaklava for shipment. It is calculated that the Russians fired about 30,000 tons of iron at us. It is certain that we gave them a b ou t 11,000 tons iu return, an d possibly the French fired about 20,000 tons; so that between 60,000 and 70,000 tons *eight of iron must be lying about on the plateau. The great objects of attraction to-day were the Russians, who crowded over the Tchernaya and wandered into every part of our camps, where they soon made out the canteens. By 1 o'clock there were &good many of them " as soldiers wish to be who love their grog." A navvy of the most stolid kind, much bemused with beer, is a jolly, liyaly, and intelligent - being compared to an intoxicated " %ISO.", They are the image of the men in Noah's ark—l mean that popular article constructed at Nuremberg'for Young Europe—stiff and angular, and when they fall down it is done with a jerk and a rigidity worthy of Richardson's. Their drunken salute to passing officers is very ludicrous, and one could laugh only he is disgusted at the abject cringe with which they remove their caps, and bow, bareheaded, , with horrid gravity in their bleary leaden' eyes and wooden faces, at the sight of a pit•ce of gold lace. Some of them seemed very much annoyed at the behaviour of their comrades, and endeavoured to drag theta off from the can ' teens, and others remained perfectly sober. Our soldiers An after them in crowds, and fraternised very willingly with their late enemies ; but the Russian officers seemed to hold with the French Prather than with citseives. Towards evening the banks of the TelierhaYa presented a curious appear aneeatlike fords, Tile boon companions, French and EngliSh; were shaking hands and bidding most affectionate farewells to their Ruski comrades, who had to cross'over before the rappel. In places this was easier 'said than done, for the only mode of crossing. was on balks of timber, which looked double to their vision, but in reality were narrow enough for a sober man to find 'some difficulty in crossing;_ so ever and anon the Ruski tumbled off amid shouts of laughter, and was pulled out half drowned. A grim guard, with fixed bayonets, en vious probably of 'the happy condition of their coniradei was waiting for them at the other side, and the bank was patrolled by Cossacks with ropes, all ready to tie up any "incapable" and take him homewards. Down they came, staggering' and roaring through the bones of their countrymen (whiClf :corrimon decency I hope they will bury as soon as - possibl6), and then, after elaborate leave-talking, passed the fatal stream. General Codrington was down at the ford, and did net seem to know.'whether to be amused or scandalised at scene, ; :lave no doubt he will take steps,,te prevent any such exhibition on the part of our mini' The navvies have found their way across to k the caves, and some of them have esta bbshed such friendly relations with the Russians that a,hey . have been ;allowed to see the chapel cut out of rock, which they describe in terms of great pal. ,e-H" It's auld gould and coot glass." As to the sunken .ships there are various opi nions. Some, -say they are by this time utterly ruined, others contend that they can he weighed and rendered fi,t for service ; but for the most part they are only sailing, vessels of the old build, short and tubby. I have seen a piece of teak cut out of one of them, which was as perfectly sound and good as it was the first day it was used. The deal of which the submerged gun-carriages are made has, lipwiser, suffered from- the ravages of the worm. - 'All operations against theiships must now be hopeless: ' The fine weather continues. - tachinents of British infantry of the line, formed into 10 companies. Collected likewise from differ ent regiments this would have been scarcely per ceptible, had it not been for the many coloured facings, so united were they in a body. It was like a solid wall composed of different kinds of stone, but cemented together as one, and you for got the component parts in the appearance of the whole. Next came the German Legion, with General Woolride at their head ; the Jager battalion first, and the three light infantry regiments after, and the Polish Legion, which formed the last body of infantry. At the bead of the cavalry division was Captain Thomas's troop of Horse Artillery, the same which was last autumn in Eupatoria. After this troop of artillery came a sejuadron of the 11th Hussars, commanded by Major Cooke, which has been formed as a kind of depot during the winter. They are all new horses, which have never been in the Crimea, and the men mostly recruits, yet they made a very good show, which is very creditable to the officer who succeeded so well in so short a time. The King's Dragoon Guards were the next re giment, after them came the 4th Dragoon Guards, the sth Dragoons, the Scots Greys, the En niskillens, and the Royal Dragoons, in fact, the original heavy brigade sent out at the beginning of the war. • The 6th Dragoon Guards or Carabineers were at the head_ of the Light Brigade. The 12th Lancers, on their Indian Arabs, followed theCarabi neers ; and the 13th and 4th Dragoons led the van of. the Light, epalry Brigade. In the rear of all came a troop af;psmanli Horse Artillery. When Ili& tOoops—infaritry, cavalry, and artil lery—had. thul.pa.ssed once, the cavalry and artil lery passed once•.more at a trot. After the cavalry and artillery had marched past, the Sultan thanked General Storks, and compli mented him on the appearance of the troops. Then the whole cortege rode to the tent, where the Sultan dismounted and stopped outside. A detachment of 13th Light Dragoons kept the ground clear in front. The Sultan entertained himself for some time with Lord Stratford, and then expressed a wish to see Lady Stratford and the Miss Cunnings. Besides this, he desired to have all the commanding officers of brigades and regiments presented to him. In gene. ral, he seemed exceedingly gracious and well pleased. Usually be has an expression of ennui and weari ness in his face, in some measure attributable to the immobility which etiquette prescribes to him in public, but whether he was in good humour this day, or whether the military sight bad excited him, certain it is that be looked much more lively than usual, and took a good deal of interest in the ap pearance of the troops, as his repeated questions while they were passing showed. At 2 p.m. he gave the order to have his horse brought, and rode off towards the Palace of Beg lerbeg. FRANCE. PARIS, MONDAY. The Turkish ratification left Constantinople on the 14th inst. The last mail from the East states that the in surgents against the Porte in Arabia have suf fered so much from cholera, as almost to put down the insurrection. The reports affirm that 13,000 have died out of an insurgent tribe of 45,000. The Paris correspondent of Le Nord informs us that, previous to quitting Paris, Count C avour had an inter v i ew with Count Walewski, and handed to him, in the name of the Sardinian Govern ment, a note, in which are summarised the obser vations offered by Count Cavour upon the situation of Italy, in the sittings of the Conference, on the Bth and 16th of April. This note is intended to absolve Piedmont from the responsibility of the events which may transpire in Italy, r.s the result of the bad administration of certain States and of Austrian intervention in the Legations, the Duchies, Naples, &c. The note is to be presented also to the English Government. The conclusion of peace was announced to the French army by Marshal Pelit,sier in the following proclamation : " Soldiers,—The Emperor lately said to your brethren, You have well deserved of the country.' You will successively hear, in your turn, the same expressions from the august lips of his Majesty. "Soldiers,—By your energy, by your resolution, your heroic constancy, your indomitable courage, you have achieved, with our brave and faithful allies, the peace of the world. " I have a right to say it, at the sight of so many fields of battle sprinkled with your blood, witnesses of your calm self-denial, and from which each time your glory rose more radiant and noble, and crowned your sublime efforts. "You will shortly see again your country, happy at your return, happy, at a glorious peace, a peace signed at the cradle of an Imperial infant. Let us all be im pressed with that augury, let us find in it a new sign of Divine protection, and, if necessary, an additional in ducement to accomplish all our duties towards the Em peror and the country.

A letter from Berlin, of the ].Bth, in the Journal of Northern Germany, states that the court-mar tial has given its decision on the affair of the duel between M. de Rochow and M. de Hinckeldy. As, however, the decision is not valid until it has been confirmed by the King, nothing has yet transpired on the subject. The Assembles Nationale says :—"The affair of the despatches stolen at Potsdam, after having I made so much noise at Berlin, appears des tined to sink into oblivion. It may be remem bered that an article lately published, without the name of the author, on the subject of that affair, became the object of police investigations, and that a domiciliary visit was made on the occasion at the residence of M. Seyffart, a member of the Chamber of Deptities. This gentleman, thus attacked in his inviolability as a deputy and in his personal ho nour, laid a complaint before the Chamber, and the matter was referred to a committee. According to a letter from Berlin this reference will not lead to any further steps, and the police have even given up the idea of endeavouring to discover the author of the article." A letter from Munich, in the Post Ampt Gazette, says :—" The King has conferred the cross of Com mander of the Order of St. Michel on M. R. de Rothschild, in consequence of the termination of the railway question." AUSTRIA. A letter from Vienna of the 15th, in the Augs burg Gazette, states :—" We learn that the Vienna tribunal has condemned to death by default three political refugees, Doctors Antonio Faster, Joseph Goldmark, and Ernest de Violand. These leaders of the Vienna revolution are declared guilty of high treason, and of having been implicated in th e murder of M. de Latour." Marshal RadetzkTY has permitted MM. Cassick, Hafner, Milich, Mainardi, Count Burovich, An tonibon, and Castrodardo, late officers in the Aus trian navy, and political refugees, to return to the Austrian dominions. ITALY. We find in the Opinione, of the 19th inst., the following reply, addressed to the Constitutionnel : et 1. We also know, without going to Vienna, that the memorandum of th e Sardinian Plenipotentiaries was not officially presented to the Congress, but we maintain our former statement that it was submitted . to the appreciation o f the Emperor of the French and of the English Government, and to satisfy the Vienna correspondent of the Constitutionnel, we will add—at the formal invitation of Napoleon lIT. 2. Nobody affirmed that the Sardinian memorandum was read in the Confer ence, this being a matten of little consrquence if the Plenipotentiaries discussed at length its contents. 3.

COWES, April 21.—A t West Cowes the excitement tbat prevails is immense. The whole town is placarded with bills announcin g the sailing of innumerable ♦essels of all descriptions to the scene of the grand naval opera• tions. It was particularly curious to witness the crowds of persons flocking round to the residence of Mr, Moore, all anxious to obtain tickets ; and as each one obtained the coveted prize it was highly amusing to hear the con gratulations expressed to them by those who bad not been equally fortunate. ways ultimately triumph. Le_ the correspondents nor state wh,ther public opinion is favourable to Austria or to Italy." The Genoa Corriere Mercantile, of the 18th insto announces that the English Government had placed 28 steamers at the disposal of the Sardinian Go' verument to bring home its troops from the Cri• mea. The Pontifical Consul residing at Genoa gave nn' tice, on the 19th inst., that the superior Board of Health at Rome had decided that vessels coming from Genoa or the ports of the south of Francs should not be admitted into the ports of Ancona and Civita Vecchia until they had performed 6 quarantine of observation of five days when their passage took place without accident, and of 15 days in the contrary case. The Sardinian merchant navy consisted on the 31st of Dec., 1855, of 2,962 vessels, measuring 184,860 tons, and manned by 31,987 seamen. At Genoa a report is curreit that a Conference will be held, ere long, at Rome, to determine the future arrangements for Italy. According to this story—upon which b u t lit t l e re li ance must be placed „" —the Ambass a d ors res idi ng at R ome will take pa in the Conference, and Eng'and, not having e minister there, will be represented by L or d Nor manby, who resides at Florence. The Conference of a similar character, held in Rome in 1831, was not successful. The memorandum which the Powers presented to the Court of Rome at that epoch was without result. It will be remembered that Cardinal Bernetti, Secretary of State to Gre' gory XVI., followed none of the plans suggested by the memorandum, and that the few concessions which were granted on the occasion of the move: ment in Central Italy, were withdrawn by Cardillo! Lambruschini, who succeeded Cardinal Bernetti in the secretaryship of state. A letter from Galatz, in the Cassel Gazette, says% —"The house of Rothschild has sent to Constaw tinople a plan for a railway from this place 0 , Michailoni, o n th e f ront i er of the Bukowine, an d which will consequently traverse Moldavia. The company demands a concession for thirty years, and that the province of Moldavia shall take shares to the amount of 90,000 ducats." THE REVIEW OF THE FLEET.
