And they are difficulties that have arisen in this wise. The selection by the Greek nation of the Boy-Prince who is now, under the title of King GEORGE 111., their reigning sovereign; the selection of this youthful scion of the house of Son derburg-Glucksburg to the throne rendered vacant by the summary expulsion from it of the ex-King Onto (of Bavaria)—it is well known was mainly decided by the knowledge on the part of the Greeks themselves, that, in the event of such a selection, England was prepared to cede at once to Greece the whole of the long coveted archieolago of the lonian Islands. At the moment, however, when M. TRI COLIPI was on the point of signing in the name of King GEORGE, and in the interests of the Greek nation, the formal Treaty by which Great Britain would have undertaken to transfer the lonian Islands to the Kingdom of Greece —it be humiliating; be came painfully manifest that th ere was to be coupled with the cession ofthos those certain intolerable condition by way of most preliminary. The fortifications of Corfu were to be razed to the ground. The Youn g K ING was to stand pledged by the terms of the treaty to their de struction. In other words, his name, at the very out set of his reign, was to be come hi storically identified with an incident, as we have said, intensely humiliat ing to the amour propre, to the honest self-respect of the Greek nation. Almost, as a matter of course, M. TRICOUPI at once declined to become in any way a party to such an engagement as that—an / engagement that must inevitably anger the Greeks, and as inevitably, by so doing, jeopardise the main tenance of their newly-chosen Sovereign's reputa tion. In the difficulty of the sudden hitch that has thus awkwardly arisen in the negotiation of the transference of the lonian Islands from England to Greece, we observe that it is quite seriously sug gested, suggested by no less an official autho rity than the organ of the noble Iris count at the head of the British Government, that England should come to the relief of King GEORGE 1., of the Hellenes, in this his very dis tressing dilemma, that England should come to his relief at once at this most anxious moment—How, is it asked ? By, with all convenient speed, setting her hand to the task of destroying those fortifica tions at Corfu, the destruction of which are deemed to be an essential accompaniment of tho transference. Now, for our own part, we cannot for a single instant believe that our sodoing will relieve King GEORGEof Greece from his dilemma. We cannot but think that his name will then still bo very painfully and hazardously associated with an act, most untoward as the earliest incident of his reign, an act of humiliation which, while he will no doubt be spared from the anguish of performing himself, that is by his own Government, that Government of his will at any rate have the discredit of having permitted —or rather it should be said more plainly—meanly BONNET'S SILKS a LYON.—Every Article of commerce takes its title either from the inventor or u f ac t u rer, and th e more p erfect the p roduction the m grrater is the credit which attaches to the originator. _BONNET'S SILKS are said to be incapable of identifica tion in England ; but the fallacy of such an assertion is ex pos dby the ve r y trade mark of the firm, as exhibited by Messrs.

Mr Webster begs to announce that it will be performed EVERY EVENING until further notice. connived at. We learn from the latest intelligence that the ill ness from which Lord ELGIN was suffering had not up to that date proved fatal, although there was too much reason to anticipate the worst results. We may still hope against hope, until we actually hear of his death, but in any case we fear the services of a valuable public servant are lost to England. The appointment of Sir JOHN LAWRENCE to the impor tant post—vacant in any case through Lord ELGIN'S resignation—has given universal satisfac tion, and his immediate departure for the land he is so well qualified to govern was a wise and neces sary step. There is no fear that he will prove unequal to the responsibilities of his post. Hi s natural capacity, his high principle, and his lengthened experience of the people whom he is called upon to govern, all combine to fit him in an eminent degree for an office in which individual character is more tried than perhaps any other. But however well suited Sir JOHN LAWRENCE may be, mentally and morally, for the high position he has suddenly been called upon to fill, he, like his predecessor, is mortal, and will be physically sus ceptible to evil agencies. The rapid succession of deaths of men in the prime of life, the successive loss of three Governors General, in one case the vice-regent's death following closely on that of his loved and honoured wife; the death and illness of financiers and Statesmen, the terrible mortality among our soldiers in times of peace, all combine to call our attention to the question, and bid us consider whether the conditions of Anglo-Indian life are unnecessarily fatal. It is scarcely fair to count the loss of such men as HAVELOCK among the sacrifices to the climate. The terrible work and anxiety might well have proved fatal to a younger man in a more temperate zone; but the quiet residents in cities ought surely not to die at a rate commensurate with the risks of the battlefield. If England is to send some of her best men to India, if she is to provide the head to plan, the heart to feel, the hand to execute, she must at least see that they are not sent as sacrifices, that in appointing a man of ability, character, and position to a high Indian office, she is not at the same time signing his death-warrant, or at least compelling him to take a last farewell of health and all its blessings, when he touches the fatal shores of the Hooghly. It has been asserted on good authority that there is no reason why the climate of India should, under favourable circumstances and with due precautions, prove so disastrous to Europeans. Many a man has lived to a guod old age there, and some parts of the country are especially salubrious. By an unfortunate combination of natural and arti ficial causes, the seat of government is notoriously unhealthy, and to their enforced residence in Calcutta during the greater portion of the year the illnes s of the leading men in India is openly attri buted. Though it lays claim to the proud title of th e City of Palaces, it is anything but palatial in its sur r oundings. Situated on marshy ground, ill drained) au a . ill supplied with water, it is placed in such proximity to the native town that the poisonous exhalations produced by the habits of the natives, run nog whom cleanlines s a pp ears to be a thing unk nown, render the air fre quently pestilential , kno wn , balmy and temperate at mosphere would soon, become intolerable if decaying carcasesand other put r i d ta tter were allowed to taint marshy the so breezes . 0 Much in a hot c li ma t e on a toa aresuch evils ch more 4s:atr Qua, and bad ai r h a pestilenc e . and d b o a t d i e r w s a k t e n r o a v r b e yenoughatsea nptr experienceoduce some of the effects of a fetid river, but they ca n hardly ima gine what those e ffects must be Unde r a tropical sun.

It is then in conditions that under any circumstances and in any climate would be most prejudicial to health that our statesmen are called upon to undertake the duties of their weighty and anxious office ; to go on in the routine path with incessant toil, continual mental application, and the burden of a heavy re sponsibility.

Still, however hopefully the well-wishers of Denmark and of Ger many may look f orwar d to th e future, 'n consequence of that wise and temperate deci sion just resolved upon at Copenhagen, it is impossible not to bear rather painfully in recollection the fact that, though a first step, it is after all no more than a first step in the direction aimed at.

In consideration of these facts it has been sug gested in many quarters that it would be wise to remove the seat of government from Calcutta to a healthier city. There is no absolute reason why the Governor-General should hold his court ou low ground, in a country where low grounds are, under present conditions, notoriously unhealthy. The question of salubrity should be one of the very first considerations, and there is no reason why a spot should not be selected situated on higher ground, in a more temperate climate, wlich should combine all the advantages of Calcutta with others which Calcutta never had. There is nothing in the posi tion of Calcutta which renders the thought of such a transfer particularly inconvenient or injurious to the public service; in fact, nothing can be more injurious than the rapid succession of deaths which may well deter men of independent position from accepting offices for which they have to pay with their lives. This matter is well worthy of the attention of the authorities, and would be a sub stantial benefit to all concerned. In the meantime, as this is not an affair to be settled in a day, let what can be done be done towards improving the condition of Calcutta with the least possible delay. It may not be feasible to change the climate or raise the soil, but at least all the dangers may be modified. It is surely possible to enforce some sanitary regulations to compel the natives to bury or burn dead bodies of all kinds, to establish a system of something like drainage, to lend every assistance to the irrigation schemes which pro mise to supply Calcutta with good and pure water. Whether or no it remains the seat of Government, Calcutta will probably always continue to be a place of English residence, and therefore the time and money expended in rendering it less un healthy will be far from thrown away. The sums expended on public works will not be begrudged in either country; and whatever labour and skill can do to mitigate the evils of climate and situa tion ought to be forthwith done. Drainage is cer tainly possible there as elsewhere, and the proper steps should be at once taken. Sir ARTHUR COT TON undertakes to carry a liberal supply of water to the tops of the highest houses in Calcutta. Why does not the Indian Government encourage and forward his plans, instead of turning a deaf, or at least an unwilling, ear to them ? The works at the Godavery have proved so marvelously remu nerative, although incomplete, that there is no ex cuse on the ground of expenditure; but even if the outlay were never to be repaid in cash, it is time that our statesmen should learn to reckon national health and vigour among a country's most precious possessions. We trust that Sir JOHN LAWRENCE, warned by the fate of his three immediate succes sors, will speedily look to these matters, and that I the official staff, both at home and in India, will help instead of hindering him in such endeavours. In nothing has there been a more marked change for the better in the aspect of society during the last ten years than in the interchange of ideas and the mingling of classes. The schemes set afloat for education have been most fruitful in bringing about this happy result. Not alone have the institutions that have sprung up through the length and breadth of the land been productive of benefit as regards their immediate object, but they have been potent agents in approximating interests and attracting ♦arious ranks by the spell of a common influence. The aristocracy have been most active in many directions in aiding and assisting the great work of education. The starched proprieties of an earlier generation would have been amazeo and incredulous beyond measure had any prophet ol their days foretold the changes time would bring, that their immediate descendants should mee in conclave with the children of the sons of toil, whom they then regarded as almost without heads, and join in some degree in that community of feel ing which knowledge and learning can alone im part, the mighty levellers of the pride of the acci dents of birth and fortune, and the glorious uplifters of the humble and the poor. No one who does not study the subject in all its bearings can sufficiently appreciate the importance of such unions, temporary as they may be, and the interest imparted to such assemblages, uneventful and in consequent as they may seem to a cursory glance. Last Saturday Lord HARTINGTON spoke at the annual meeting of the East Lancashire Union of Mechanics and Literary Institutions and Evening Schools ; as many as one thousand attended, and prizes were distributed, the recipients having selected their own volumes in a manner which did great credit to their discernment. The resolution which Lord HARTIN GTON moved was a very significant one, and is worthy of attentive consideration :—" That the number of scholars attending the evening classes throughout the Union, notwithstanding the unpre cedented distress which has prevailed during the years 18623, affords abundant proof of the perma nent attraction which a well organised and efficient system of instruction has for the young men sup ported by manual labour in this district." A more satisfactory statement could not be endorsed than the one put forward in these words, and it needs no great skill in divination, or very sanguine estimate of events, to declare that by adopting such a course the individuals referred to are doing their best to overcome the evils that have been brought upon them, and to rise superior to the depressing in fluences that have assailed them. No better way is there to resist the temptations and overcome the dangers which the chances and changes of this mortal life may occasion, than to fill the mind with useful knowledge and to cultivate the faculties and refine the intelligence. These labours may be toil some, and the result not so swift or manifest as might have been expected, but what portion is gained is a sure treasure for the possessor. He has a storehouse for the exigencies of hereafter that nothing can deprive him of, and he is more fitted to bear the inevitable ills that fall to the lot of humanity. The noble lord, in moving the re solution referred to, remarked that it would be as idle nowadays for a man to clothe himself in armour, and ride about for adventures, as to seek for any one who would contradict the assertion that education should be widely diffused. He then made some very pertinent observations on the pecu liarities of the Norther❑ States, There is great truth in the summary that is here given of the result of the sedulous instruction that is so rife in the New England States. The reason here adduced is a: valid one, that the children are not well trained. They aro taught to admire what is " large rather than what is good, and, above all, what is American more than what is anything else." This is perfectly correct, and it has been Shown how lamentably these notions have worked, very deleterious influence; the press a nd What d ep l orable consequences they have en tailed, n ow that th e th eor i es are b e i ng put i nto p r actice. Also, and LordinAmeric H a A e ß x T e i r N ci G s T es oN a very e r eeeuablY deduced from this that the educa tion of the people did not go far enough to enable them to reject such reading. It is well to consider h, and to po n d er upon th e reasonsee ivh militat e a gainst the beneficial effect t s subjects .hie at that such extensive culture ought to produce upon the moral and mental condition of a country. The best lesson which learning can bestow is to teach humility; no one who rightly comprehends the wonders of the universe will fail to recognise his own comparative insignificance, and the same prin ciple applies in some measure to a nation. It is not being puffed-up and conceited that will raise any land to the pinnacle of greatness, or sustain a people in the day of trouble and the period of trial. This has been manifested most strikingly dur log tho late calamitous period. Lord HARTINGTON said with correctness that they have not exhibited some of the qualities that less cultivated nations have done in their position when put to a similar trial. Most im portant lessons may be learned from these reflec• dons, and some of the chief foundations of a stedfast course consist in the mingled influence of fortitude and meekness. Self - sufficiency may strut its brief hour on the stage of prosperity, but never can sup port the chill blasts of adversity, nor enable its possessor to meet reverses with dignity. The young cannot be too much imiressed with this all-important truth, and no culture wili make them fitted for the uses of existence if it does not render them at the same time self-possessed, and moderate in their pretensions. Lord HAlt TINGTON brought the subject back to its original place by inquiring how and in what manner could the best and purest education be given. He held out as an inducement that institutions of this kind enabled many persons to obtain a sound knowledge of their and if they a c q u i re d a t as t e forthe study own language,of the great masterpieces of ou r country, they would be preserved, to a considerable extent, from anything that was " base, ignoble, and iniquitous." The remarks on Lancashire, in the fearful ordeal to which it has been subjected, were replete with taste and feeling of the highest order. No one can deny that the suffering has not been unmitigated, since it has called forth the expression of sympathy which, real and earnest, is one of the greatest blessings of humanity, and also it has exhibited so many traces of heroism that our country has good reason to be proud of her sons, who have been tried by a severer test than any past experience has exhibited, and gone through a sharper struggle than any war that has been waged on the battlefields of history. Lord HAR TINGTON concluded by drawing a sort of parallel between the prostration that had fallen upon us, and the reviving prosperity which the Northern States now boast of. There can be no doubt it is an illusion, and will soon show the instability of their expectations. When this crisis is past we may better appreciate oar strength, and at all events its sources will be more lasting, while they will inevitably b eg i n to find out th e i r weakness, when all thei r seem i ng wea lth and p ower w i ll vanish as the baseless fabric of h vision. There is no merit in not preparing for the emergencies of the events that common sense must foresee, and the recklessness of such a course will entail inevitable losses of a sad and serious nature. Lord HARTING TON'S address will be found to contain some solid information, and some lessons of political wisdom and moral reflections, that will be sure to produce beneficial effects upon those to whom they were communicated. They may be led to think for themselves, without which no learning can profit them, and to seek to avoid the errors which they may fall into. The fruit of the tree of knowledge may be sweet or bitter as it is wisely chosen, and the secret of the selection is worth knowing. At all events, the teachers of wisdom will inculcate the doctrines of self control, and the benefits and bless ings of instruction can never be manifested in a higher or holier manner than when they enable heir recipients to meet the calamities of life in a spirit that looks beyond and above them, certain that they cannot be overwhelming if they leave untouched the feeling of self respect, and secure in their final discomfiture in so far as concerns their victory over the better part of our nature. Law Amendment Society. The third general meeting of this society was held last evening at 3, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, Sir Richard Graves M‘Donnell in the chair. After a few remarks from the Chairman, express ing diffidence in occupying the position of chairman after an absence of many years from England, a paper was read by Mr. Robert Wilson, on " Transfer of Title to Land." In it he submitted that posses sion was presumptive evidence of ownership irre spective of documents, and on the other hand every theeiwlieityof ownership therefore he proposed they eras c d a e u p s a e r d t übrye documents,fro m should register possession as the simple representa tive of a title that was simple, and as a basis for the registration of the documents by which for the time being a title is complicated. He explained that one of the great obects he had in view was to endeavour to turn back the attention of Mr. Torrens' papers on the " Transfer of Land and Registration of Titles," applied as supplementary to the Irish Estates Court Act. Mr. HENRY PALMER (secretary) stated that he had recently made inquiries into the working of the Land Transfer Act, and that it appeared that the applications to the Land Registry Office represented property to the value of nearly two millions. An estate had been very lately entered of the value of £700,000, and those of the value of £50,000 value might, on an average, be registered with an inde feasible title for about £5O as the expenses of the office. The principal charges would be for adver tisements,enmapping, and survey i ng. T he m i nor ex se sof the office would b e the value of the stamp . p He further stated that it was not correct that the majority of the applications were by proprietors of land sold for buildin g purposes. On the motion, of Mr. T. Webster it was agreed that all discussion on the paper should be adjourned till the first week in January, when the discussion on Mr. Torrens's paper would also come on. The report of the committee appointed to con clude the negotiations with the Social Science Asso ciation for a closer union with that body, on the basis of the draft agreement submitted to the last meeting, Wa s rea d. It recommended that the united associations should be called, the National Association for the Promotion of Social Science, with which is united the Society for the Amend ment of the Law." And that the first department of the united association should be styled, " The Department of Jurisprudence and Amendment of the Law." The meeting was then addressed by several gentlemen as to the details of the amalgamation of the society, and votes of thanks were passed to the officers who had, and those who were now, serving the society. The proceedings concluded by a vote of thanks to the chairman. SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. W. SALT, F.S.A., 111.R.5.1., THE BANKER. — Much surprise and re gret was caused yesterday, not only in the City but in the British Museum, by the announcement of the sudden death of Mr. William Salt, junior partner in the firm of Messrs. Stevenson, Salt, and Sons, the well-known bunking film in Lombard-street. Mr. Salt was at the British Museum on Saturday, investigating matters relating to the topography and antiquity of his native county, Staffordshire; and was seized with a fit in church en Sunday morning, from the effects of which he died. Mr. Salt was a well-known and familiar visitor of the British Museum reading room, from his love for local antiquarian lore. He was a follow of the Society of Antiquaries and an active member of the Royal Society of Literature, besides being a zealous supporter of every charitable institution. He is known in the literary world by the number of old books he has presented to or obtained for the British Museum, In 1544 he printed a curious supplement to Dr. Harwood's edition of Sampson Erdeawick's " Survey of Staffordshire," the text of which in many parts he revised. The copy in the British Museum bears the inscription from his own hand, " Only twenty copies of the list of MS. printed. No. I—British Museum." Mr. Salt was much respected in commercial Circles, and highly esteemed among literary men for his amiable dispo sition and pleasant manners. Ho was a year or two short of 60 at the time of his unexpected death, LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) THE CONGRESS. PARIS, DEC. 8. The replies of the Emperor of Russia and the Kings of Saxony and Wurtemburg to the Emperor's invitation to the Congress have been published this morning. The Emperor of Russia states that he has always recognised the utility of an understand ing among the Sovereigns. All the acts of his reign attest his desire to substitute relations of con• fidence and concord for the state of armed peace, weighing so heavily upon the peoples. His Majesty then says that he had taken the initiative in this direction by the reduction of his army, and continues : " Eventualities of a nature to menace the security and even the integrity of my states alone caused me to abandon this path. I have an earnest desire to be able to re-enter it, and spare my people the sac rifices which their patriotism accepts, but for which their property suffers. " Nothing could better hasten this movem than a general pacification of the questions which agitate Europe. I should be happy if your Ma jesty's proposition lead to a loyal understanding between the sovereigns ; but for this to be practi- tally realised can only proceed from the consent of the other great Powers. It is indispensable for your Majesty to define the questions upon which an understanding would have to be arrived at, and the bases upon which it would be established. " The object of the pacification of Europe will always have my most earnest sympathies." The first conference took place yesterday, at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, for the conclusion of a treaty of commerce and navigation between France and Sweden. THE SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN QUESTION. VIENNA, DEC. 8. The Vice-Admiral Irminger, the Danish Extra ordinary Ambassador charged with the notification of the accession of King Christian IX., has left this city without being received by the Emperor. This circumstance is regarded as a confirmation of the view that, in spite of the withdrawal of the March patent, Austria still insists upon Federal execution in Holstein. A deputation from the Municipal Council of Vienna presented a petiti'n to the Emperor yester. day relative to the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein. The Emperor, in reply, said he did not deem it necessary to assure them that, in this question, he should fulfil his duties as a Prince of the German Confederation, and strive with all his power for the preservation of the constitutional rights of the Duchies. His Majesty stated, however, that the Municipal Council would do much better if, instead of discussing high political questions, they would direct their activity more to commercial affairs. FRANKFORT-ON-MAINE, DEC. 5. The sitting of the Diet, which was to have taken place on Thursday, was adjourned to-day, and im patient folks imagined the week would not close without a definite decision. They have been de ceived, however, for the Diet will not sit to-day, but has postponed its meeting until Monday. This fresh delay is attributed to the difficulty of the two great German Powers in coming to an agreement with the other members of the Confederation. Austria and Prussia, in fact, are in open oppo sition to their confederates, who persist in wishing to occupy the Duchies, in order to hand them over at once to the Duke of Augustenburg. The movement, however, continues throughout the country, and is strengthened by the official or tacit assent of the Governments. King Maximi lian of Bavaria ie expected with the utmost im patience, as it is believed he will place himself with Saxony at the head of the German patriots. Com mittees are constantly upon the increase; subscrip tion lists fill rapidly, many persons giving conside rable sums; recruiting offices have been opened— among other places, in this city—and men of great influence, through official position and fortune, figure among the most vigorous promoters of the movement. Little probability, therefore, exists that the minor States will change in opinion. Voluntarily or in voluntarily they are dragged on by their subjects, and several of the evening papers say that the rea son for the Diet not sitting to-day is that by Mon day all the envoys will have received full powers to vote the occupation of the Duchies. This pre supposes that hopes are still entertained of the two Great Powers ultimately joining the National party, considering themselves released from the Treaty of London by the promulgation of the new DADWI Constitution in Schleswig. The official journal of the Grand Duchy of Bade❑ speaks upon the subject as follows "It is possible that Austria and Prussia, taking into consideration the manner in which they regard the obligations incumbent upon them through the Treaty of London, may be prevented from acting against the Protocol-King in the Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein and Lauenburg. But this protocol in no degree imposes upon them the obli gation of undertaking anything in his favour, and of obstructing those Governments who, free from all real and fictitious ties, are ready to pronounce themselves against him, and to defend the good right of Schleswig-Holstein and of their Duke. Neither Austria nor Prussia are entitled to dictate laws to the Confederation in this respect, to cause the protocol of London to be ratified, and to indicate the moment when the Diet has to defend the resolution passed by the majority. These two Powers no longer possess the right of determining or rejecting the means fitted to put the vote of the majority in execution, or to attribute to an action in which they take a part, a character in conformity with their views. If the Diet passes any other decree than that of continuing the execu tion, the order given to the four States entrusted with carrying it into operation will have ceased to exist. The Diet must then issue fresh directions as to levying troops, as to their command, and as to the civil Commissioners it intends to appoint. The Groat Powers will there bo entirely free to hold themselves aloof from these measures, conformably to the policy they still pursue. The Confederation has force sufficient at its disposal without them, to attain the object at which it desires to arrive, to give liberty to Holstein, and to continue the former right of alliance of Holstein and Schleswig." FRANKFORT, DEC. 7. The Federal Diet has passed by a small majority the resolution for Federal execution in Holstein, reserving to itself the settlement of the question of th© succession. The order for the advance of troops into the Duchy was immediately despatched. DRESDEN, DEC. 7 (Evening). The Dresden Journal of to-day publishes a tele gram from Frankfort, stating that in to-day's sit ting of the Ftideral Diet Oa r epresentatives ol Weimar and FAxe-Meiningeu introduced a proposi tion that neither the TZing of Denmark nor the Duke of Augustenburg should be recognised as the Sovereign of Lauenburg, but that the Federal Diet should rather take that Duchy under its own administration. This proposition was referred to the committee, who will make their report and proposal thereon. FRANCE.

Bvo., pp. 114. Ridg- way. Although we by no means go with the learned and generous hearted author of this pamphlet on " The American Question" in much of his argument, we cannot but recognise in that argument of his an ability and an, eloquence en titling it to be regarded as one of the most remark able yet put forth upon The American Question since the commencement of Hostilities between those fratricidal belligerents, the Federals and the Confederates. Canon de Haerne, it should be observed, is himself a member of the Belgian Chamber of Representatives. He has the know ledge of a legislator, the powers of an orator, the genius of a statesman. He scans the American difficulty from the summit of the height, from under the shelter of the aegis of the institutions of a wisely monarchical and a purely constitutional form of Government. His views, as expressed in this now celebrated pamphlet, have won for them selves a very large share of attention, and even, it may be said, too, of unaffected admiration throughout the intelligent masses of his own countrymen. The translator, in turning it now into English, has done good service (we doubt not, even where we least agree with Canon de Haerne), to the learned pamphleteer's reputation—to his reputation Here in England, and possibly also upon the opposite shores of the Atlantic. At any rate, in one pirticular, the most vitally important of all in respect to the argument advanced thro ugh the medium of this pamphlet, we can go, we do go, heart and soul with the respected author of it— namely, in his profound and earnest abhorrence of Slavery as a political institution. The Publisher's Circular.—ln the number (629, just issued for the current half-month, we have, under the title of a mere list of books, as interesting a volume of 150 pages, profusely illustrated, really and truly, as interesting a volume as almost any of which it makes mention as recently published. It certainly surpasses everyone enumerated among its contents for the extraordinary variety and diversity of it as an epitome of current literature. JAMES DUFFIELD HARDING. The announcement of the death of the most eminent teacher of drawing in London, and one of the most conspicuous water-colour painters of hiB time, will be received' with deep regret by the public. Few abler painters in his own liue lived; a more conscientious master never. James Duffield Harding was born at Deptford in 1798. His father was a pupil of Paul Sandby's. He himself had 15 lessons or so from Prout. Once, by the advice of his mother, he attempted to draw the trees in Greenwich-park, but failed, and became a pupil of an engraver. After a year some fresh sketches of his from nature were painstaking and successful. At the age of 18 he received the silver medal of the Society of Arts. He now became a teacher of drawing, but he was not content with merely touching up the exercises of his pupils. He taught drawing so that his pupils might regard it as a means of studying nature and the higher branches of art. Most characteristically he wrote in the preface to his " Guide and Com panion to Lessons in Art;"—" I particularly desire it to be understood that every page has been writ ten under the guiding principle that all true educa tion, of whatever kind, consists in the cultivation of judgment. The conviction of the applicability of knowledge is the starting-point and momentum of education. By this we arrive at correct opinions and sound judgment. This is the guiding star of the dawning mind. It marks its maturity and adorns its age." Mr. Harding, as a teacher, was remarkable in more ways than one. He found great difficulty in finding examples of foliage for his pupils, and he turned his attention to the study of lithography. To his practised hand stone was no more difficult to work on than paper. Some of Mr. Harding's sketches are beautiful specimens. He was one of the first also to work on stone with a brush instead of a crayon, whereby greater facility in labour was en sured. His remarkable work, " Sketches at Home and Abroad," which he published in 1836, was a splendid proof of his ability. In his " Park and Forest" (folio), the studies of trees are inimitable for fidelity and brilliancy—true to nature, and bril liant in artistic effect. Mr. Harding was one of the prin3ipal member , of the Old Society of Painters in Watercolours. It he was not the first to adopt the process of using body colour instead of transparent colour, he was the first who carried it out to any great extent, and it has since been carried out in all figure and land scape painting. Ten or twelve years ago Mr. Harding took to oil painting, and his works were marked by facile exe cution and brilliant touc hin g . He desired admissinl to honours of the Royal Academy, and, in eompli, anco with the absurd rule which forbids a candidate from being a member of any other artistic society, h e s evered his connection with the Society of Pain ters in Water-colours. lie was not admitted A. R" A., and after some time he rejoined his old society, of whict he was the ornament. Mr. Harding'a sketches present every val:iety, ranging from Great Britain to France, the Yyrol, ,he Alps, Italy and Germany, sea and land, mono ,ain and plain, palace and cottage.

In addition to the brief report which I forwarded on Saturday, I am happy to add that the lifeboat of the National Institution has returned home from her mission of mercy, having fairly won her laurels for the Qrst doe' I stated that the lifeboat went out on Saturday about three p.m., in the direction of Aberayron, a distance of 15 miles' The night having set in, and being pitch dark, the crow could see nothing whatever of the vessel supposed to be in distress, but they bravely hold on until 11 o'cl °clr ' when they went into Newquay, twenty miles from Aberystwyth. There they heard of the position °f the vessel, and were told that a boat from Neicq ue) : had boarded her, and had brought ashore the captaid; wife and children. Early on Sunday morning the Web ° went off to the ship and put five of her crew on board. After immense difficulty and great danger they succeeded in bringing the ship and her crew safely into Aberystvil'' The lifeboat behaved admirably on this occasion, an d ; li n e r crew have unbounded confidence in her. A great des ' anxiety prevailed throughout Saturday night and Sal' cl ; e n l morning as to the fate of the lifeboat, as well as the s l3 7' no tidings having been received of either, but when 13°13. v r returned to port they were welcomed by hundreds of c ilee i; ful hearts. The vessel proved to be a brig belonging Scilly, bound from Dublin to Cardiff. The cost of this lif e ' boat was presented to the institution by Mrs. B. o.° a ; and the boat is called The Evelyn Wood," after au ogle" of that name who received the Victoria Cross for his die' tinguished services in the Crimea.
