BTICTORY TO THE BRAVE.—Late events prove how impossible it is to resist the minter" and naval power of England and France united. Russian despotism is at an end.

Their new stock of Hats, Caps, Hosiery for ladles and gentlemen. Boots and Shoes, &c., are the victorious expressions •f superior quality and economical prices. The victories of Commerce in the Wholesale Clothing Depart ment may be shared by Merchants, Captains, and others, the stock of Clothing, shirts, Boots and Shoes, &c., for export is larger, better, and more suitable than any other, the goods are soonest sold, and produce larwe profits in any part of the world, in consequence of the economical prices charged by E.

Every naval officer who has inspected the Pelter expre-ses great admiration of her construction and evident capabilities for the services for which her class are in tended. TIIE LATE MARSHAL DE ST. ARNAUD. We translate the following from. three of .the Paris journals :, (Front the Constitutionnel.) " Master of the field of battle of the Alma, Marshal de St. Arnaud, after having given the necessary orders to pursue the enemy, and to make the victory bear its fruit, returned to the tent of Prince Menschikoff, a glo rious trophy of our arms, and wrote as follows to the Minister: of War My health is still the same: it holds up in the midst of suffering, crises, and the per formance of my duty. All this does not prevent me from remaining on horseback twelve hours on battle days. But will not my strength give way at last ?' The presentiment which dictated these lines was destined to be realised. Marshal de St. Arnaud has not survived his victory. For the last year the life of the Marshal was only onefof long.suffering, nevertheless he could not makeup his mind to repose when the era of combats was recommencing for France. He had claimed as a privilege thecommand of the first army that should carry the eagles on a European field of battle. Every one said that 'he would leave his life there ; he only knew that he would gain glory, and he was inexorable in his resolution. The passage from Varna to Eupatoria, had brought back the malady with which the 111.arshal was afflicted, and be had been a prey for two days to dreadful suffering when he got on horse back to attack the enemy. For twelve hours he could not : be persuaded to .take a moment's rest ; he several times rode along the whole line of battle, which was nearly five miles in length, never ceasing to give his orders, and concealing from all, at the rice of incredible efforts, his struggl e aga i nst his malady At length, when the pain became too severe, when hi 4 exhausted force *as on the point of betraying hiril he got himself held up on horseback by two horsemen, It was thus that the Marshal lavished his life on the battle-field on which be added so noble a paps, to our military history. And in consequence, our soldiers, whose noble hearts know how to appreciate all kinds of heroism, did not spare their marks of respect to the leader who showed himself so worthy to command them, For two days after the battle he still exercised his functions, and every time he left his tent, walking only by a miracle9f de termination, ardent and unanimous acclamations greeted him everywhere on his passage. They only, however, who lived on terms of intimacy with Marshal St. Ar naud knew what an internal struggle he had to sustain ; they wondered at that victory of every moment over nature, and were terrified at it. Human strength has a limit, and the Marshal had reached it. He suc cumbed in a few hours, and the soldiers only knew that he had ceased to command, when they learned that he had ceased to live. That is certainly a noble death, immedi ately after a victory, and immediately after a great service rendered to France and to Europe. Three great nations will unite in the same sentiment of regret and admira tion to honour the conqueror of the Alma.. But France in whose service the Marshal has worn out his life, owes it to herself to eternise his memory by some imperishable mark of respect. In giving an account of the Alma he had forgotten only himself; Isis country will not forget him." (Front the Pays.) "All France will painfully feel the loss which our valiant army has just sustained. Marshal Saint Arnaud was attacked with a dangerous malady when he accepted the laborious functions of General 'in-Chief of the expedition in the Rim,. But neither the perils to which he exposed himself nor family considerations could weaken his courage and his admirable devotedness. Lie made the sacrifice of his life to the glory of our flag, the honour of the French name, and the cause of right and civilisa tion, and he accomplished it to the end with the noble bravery which distinguishes heroic hearts ! His last re port caused this sad event to be almost expected. Wo see from it that the strength of the illustrious general was becoming exhausted, and that it would soon betray his moral energy! Marshal Saint Arnaud died as a great captain should die—hearing the cannon announce to the attentive world the victory of our armies, due to the ability of their general-in-chief, the humiliation of our enemies, and perhaps the first attacks on the for tresses of Sebastopol ! His death is a noble and glorious one ! - The grateful country will know how to honour it, and to make the souvenir of it eter nal ! Before dyi ng M ars h a l S a i n t A rnau d cause d us to take a glorious vengeance on Russia ; he saw our victorious eagles strike to the heart the power of the Czar ; his name, already illustrious by many warlike exploits, will pass to pe.terity indissolubly united to the fall of Russian authority in the Crimea. The chivalrous devotedness of Marshal Saint Arnaud to France and the Emperor is one of the great examples which inspire imitators. Our army which weeps its chief will know how to avenge him by marching with new ardour to victory, guided by generals in whom it trusts, and whose high qualities are equal to their lofty courage. THE SCREW BLOCK-SHIPS. The Fhips-of-war ordered to be fitted with screw pro pellers, for the purpose of making them available as guard-ships at the various ports, such as those on the Tyne and the Clyde, are to have engines of compara tis4ly small nominal power, or from 150 to 200-horse power, which will be amply sufficient to enable them to protect the mouths of the large rivers in Great Britain and Ireland. Every preparation is now being made to meet any emergency which may occur in the next spring. A TRIFLE FOR THE EAST. One of the finest howitzers ever cast, weighing 125 cwt., or 6 tons and one quarter of a ton, is now iii pro gress of being mounted at the Royal Arsenal on a solid bed for service on board a war steamer, where from its appearance it will be fitted in the same manner as bombs are. The howitzer has a bore of ten inches, and an elevation which will give it a very long range. Howitzers of the above-powerful nature; if stationed on floating batteries with attendant steamers, or fitted with steam means of propulsion, would soon destroy the strongest fortifications they might be brought against, the spheri cal solid shot fired from that description of ordnance being upwards of 100 lbs. weight. WARM CLOTHING FOR THE TROOPS IN THE CRIMEA. Upwards of 700 tons of fleecy hosiery, consisting of under-waistcoats, drawers, &c., have been shipped on board the screw steamer Prince, for conveyance to the troops in the Crimea. A complete telegraphic appara tus, with several hundred miles of wire, to be laid down in the Crimea, and also several sets of diving apparatus, to remove under water obstructions, will be taken out by the Prince. THE RUSSIAN PRIZES AND PRISONERS. Yesterday the Russian vessel Bognaja. Nadischa, prize to H.M. steamer Miranda, arrived in the river from the White Sea, and WAS taken into the West India Docks, to be condemned in due course by the Court of Admi ralty and sold for the benefit of her captors. The de crees for the sale of the undermentioned vessels have been issued by the Court of Admiralty—viz., the Fama and Froyn, prizes to H.M. revenue cutter Argus ; the Abe and Fidentia, prizes to her Majesty's screw frigate Tribune ; and the Auguste, prize to the ilecla and Arrogant. Yesterday her Majesty's ship Belleiale arrived in the Downs from the Baltic. The total number of Russian prisoners now at Milßay is 800. It is proposed that those among them who may be desirous shall be allowed to emigrate to Australia. THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION. The North Star and Talbot were taken into the fitting basin at Sheerness yesterday, preparatory to their being paid oft. The North Star has brought home the follow ing officers, who went out from England in her :—Com mander William J. S. Pullen : Mr. Thomas C. Pullen, master : Mr. William Shellabeer, second master : and Mr. William Elliott, clerk in charge. The following supernumeraries are brought home by her, and sent on board the flag-ship Waterloo :—Commander S. Osborne, late of the Pioneer ; Commander Haswell, late of the Investigator ; also Mr. Court, master ; Drs. Armstrong and Piers ; Mr. Payne, Paymaster ' • and Mr. Miert sching, interpreter of the Esquimaux language ; Lieuts. Pim and Roach, of the Resolute ; also Mr. M'Dugall, Mr. Crabbe, masters ; and Mr. Scott, assistant-surgeon, The North Star left England on the 21st of April, 1852. Her officers and crew have suffered the priva tions of two winters' of three months each total dark ness, with the thermometer 56 degrees below zero, or 88 degrees below the freezing point. They have been with out a single human being to associate with, except their own little company, for a period of two years and a-half. During the whole period the officers and crew have ceased to use the razor, merely scissoneutting and trim ming their faces and heads, and there has not been one solitary case of ulcerated or sore throat among them. Until within a week the razor was only known by name in the ship, and, strange to say, immediately their faces lost their warm clothing several found that the cold took effect on their throats. Not a single man or officer has been lost from sickness. The duties of the clerk-in-charge of this ship have been most onerous, he having had to be up at all hours supplying travelling parties with pro visions who have on many occasions, with their sledges and dogs, travelled 60 miles a-day. A few rare speci mens of birds and eggs have been preserved and brought home. She brought home the crews of the Investigator and the Phoenix, and the crews of the Resolute and Enterprize. The Talbot, Commander Robert Jenkins, has brought home all the officers and crew who went out with him. The following supernumeraries were taken on board at Beechey Island :.---Commander Richards, late of the Assistance; Lieut. May, ditto ; Lieut. Uheyne, ditto ; Mr. Allard, late master of the Pioneer ; Mr. Herbert, mate of the Assistance ; and Mr. Pym, mate of ditto ; Mr. Richards, assistant-surgeon of the Assistance ; Mr. Toms, assistant-surgeon of the Pioneer, and Mr. Kerr, carpenter of the Assistance ; also 51 men, the crews of the Pioneer and Assistance. Colonel Jones, Royal Engineers, after reporting him self at the Royal Engineer Department at Pall-mall, on his return from the Baltic, visited Woolwich on Satur day. Major Ord, Royal Engineers, who accompanied the gallant late Brigadier-General to the Baltic, has also arrived at Chatham. THE MILITIA. The Essex Rifle Militia, now in garrison .at Canter bury, have received orders to relieve the 46th Foot, at Windsor. The Essex Rifles have been out for target practice for some days, and the men are becoming effi cient marksmen. The Middlesex Rifle Militia, Colonel Viscount Enfield, are now out training at Barnet, and are rapidly acquir ing pr )ficiency. The men have a smart, soldier-like ap pearance, and reflect considerable credit on their in structors. The Northumberland Militia Artillery are under or ders to muster at Newcastle. The clothing and accou trements have been forwarded from the Tower to head quarters.

She ie expected on or_ about tho 10th inot (From the Journal des Debuts.) Marshal Saint Arnaud was only 53 years of age. During several years he was in the severe campaigns of Africa, and always made himself remarkable by his bravery and talents. H►s name is cited in almost all the combats of the long and arduous war in that country. Commander•in-Chief of the army of the East, he there displayed very remarkable talents and activity, notwithstanding the bad state of his health, which had long been extremely delicate. At Varna, he was attacked with malignant fever, and on two subse quent occasions with cholera. In the Crimea he heroi cally dominated his malady, in order to fulfil his high mission of General-in-Chief. The sentiment of military honour and the love of glory seem alone to have been able to maintain his moral energy under the physical sufferings he endured, and ho commanded in the battle of Alma, saying that a Marshal of France ought to know how to die on horseback. _ The Siecle, in a summary of the account of the battle of the Alma notices as follows the conduct of the English : "Below there; on the left, are the English, VOW our firm allies. Their general had to imitate the move ment of the Bosquet division, but the ground did not allow it, as the Russian cavalry could deploy there, and Lord Raglan, in place of turning the enemy, was in danger of being turned himself. He came on methodi cally and steadily, knowing well that he should repair afterwards any delay by the vigour and promptitude of his resolutions. In fact, although anxious, like a true Englishman, to spare the blood of his soldiers, 'he did not hesitate to attack in front the formidable positions of the Russians. The struggle was a desperate one, and blood flowed freely, but the tenacity of the Anglo-Nor man race did not fail an instant. The positions were carried, and victory with her two hands bestows equal crowns over the soldiers of France and of England." QUARTERLY REVENUE ACCOUNTS. An official intimation has been issued, stating that the revenue accounts for the present and future quarters will be published in the new and improved form, and Will give the public more complete information than that which has been contained in the statements hitherto published. " 1. The account of the revenue has been hitherto con fined to Great Britain ; the revenue received in Ireland has never formed part of the accounts hitherto published ; the accounts have therefore been deficient by upwards Of four millions of net annual revenue. The account to be published on the 11th October for the quarter ending the 10th will be a complete account of the net revenue of the United Kingdom. The results of fiscal legislation will be better shown by a complete than by a partial statement of revenue collected. "2. The results of the comparison with the corres ponding quarter and year ending on the 10th October, 1853, will be show n as heretofore ; but as the financial year, commencing in April, is the year of the budget, the year for which the public expenditure is voted, and the year of account, there will be added to this com parison, one showing the increase or decrease in the por tion of the financial year which shall have expired at the termination of each quarterly account. " 3. The account of the income and charge of the Consolidated Fund has hitherto been a very partial and imperfect one ; instead of showing the applica tion of the quarter's receipts from all sources, it has been limited to the receipts and charges of the Consolidated Fund in Great Britain, omitting the income and charges fur Ireland, and suppress ing altogether those receipts which may have been ap propriated by Parliament ter the payment of other pub lic services than those charged permanently on the Con solidated Fund, The account to be published on the 11th October, and in future quarters, will shaw not only the receipts derived from the ordinary revenue, from ira prest moneys, and from repayments, but will embrace all extraordinary receipts, whether derived from tem porary or permanent loans, Exchequer Bills, or any other moneys, applicable to the payment of public ser vices ; it will be a complete debtor and creditor state ment of all public moneys received in the quarter, and of the appropriation of the same." The following figures relating to the net revenue and other receipts of the quarter ended 10th October, 1854, have been issued. Surplus balance beyond the charge of the Consolidated Fund, for the quarter ended July 5, 1854 (Ireland), 166,5551.

The Earl of Listowel's son, Lord Ennismore, of tile Fusilier Guards,• is- reported as wounded severely, and the earl's brother, Capt. the Hon. C. Hare, of the 7th FusilierP, has met with a similar casualty. Capt. the Hon. Win. Monck, also of the Fusiliers (brother of Viscount Monck, M.P. for Portsmouth), who was killed at the head of his company, was a great favourite in the 7th, and will be deeply regretted. Lieut. the Hon. C. Crofton, of the same regiment, who was wounded, is eldest son of Lord Crofton, and grandson to the late Lord Anglesey. He was pace of honour to her Ma jesty before his entrance into the army about a year ago. In the 231 Fusiliers, Captain Arthur William Wynn, who lost his life in the conflict, was cousin of Sir Wat kyo Williams Wynn, Bart., M.P., and son of the late Right Hon. C. W. Wynn. Sir William Young, of the 23,1, who was also among the. killed, was the lineal de scendant of Sir John Young, who accompanied Mary Queen. of Scots, as her Chamberlain, on her return froin France to Scotland, in 1561. He was just 21 years of age, had been about four years in the service, and was married only a few weeks before his embarkation for the seat of war. Lord Chewton is wounded. He is the eldest son of the Earl of Waldegrave, and is a captain in the Scots Fusilier Guards. Lieutenant the Hon. H. Annesley of the same regiment, is a younger brother of Lord Annesley. Captain Horace Cust, of the Coldstream Guards, is the only officer of the Household Brigade who fell. • He was a cousin of the young Earl Brown low. Amongst the wounded is the Earl of Errol, who is, in virtue of his office of high constable, the first subject in Scotland after the blood royal. Two members of Par liament had narrow escapes—Sir De Lacy Evans having received a severe contusion- in the right shoulder, and Col. the Hon. Percy Egerton Herbert one in the back' of the neck. The former gallant officer, as is well known, represents Westminster; the latter, Ludlow. TJ3E GREAT CONFLAGRATION IN NEWCASTLE AND GATESHEAD. NE WCASTLE•ON-TYNE -MONDAY AFTERNOON. The worst is over now, it is hoped, and the police,, military, and firemen are seeking a little rest after three nights' arduous toil and danger. The immense mass of burning ruins in Gateshead continued to smoulder dur ing the whole of Saturday night and yesterday, and called for the most watchful attention from the authori ties, who kept pouring copious volumes of water upon them from the river engines. Yesterday afternoon, the wind having changed, blowing the mass of sulphurous smoke from Gateshdad towards the river, a large gang of labourers were employed to remove the heap of rub bish which choked up the east and west end of Hillgate, under which •it was thought the bodies of several of the unfortunate persons_that are missing were covered up. At the far or east end no bodies had last night been found, but at the end next the bridge the excavators ex perienced a melancholy success. In the course of the day the bodies of the following were discovered : Mr. Alexander Dobson, jun., architect, of Newcastle upon-Tyne, son of Mr. 'John Dobson, architect. Mr. Thomas .Sliarp, 13, Suminerhill-terrace, New castle, aged 27. - Mr. Martin Hall, fireman, Gallowgate, Newcastle, aged 52. Mr. Moseley, shackle maker, Oakwellgate, aged 27. Two more bodies had been partially uncovered last night, when the workmen were driven back by the sulphurous vapour, and farther operations were deferred till the morning. The whole of the above bodies were found within half a dozen yards of each other, Mr. Mosely being found first, Mr. Dobson,. second, Mr. Sharp third, and Mr. Hall last, and removed to the Gateshead Police-station, whence the whole of them, with the exception of that of Mr. Hall, had been re moved last night. Mr. Moseley was the least injured, and, save a blow received on the right side of the head, might have been taken to have died from hav ing been buribd in the ruins. The other three bodies, which had been fearfully burnt, were altogether un distinguishable by appearance. Mr. Dobson must have remained unidentified but for a bunch of keys in his pocket, and from a little portion of his dress having been preserved between the inner bend of the knee joint. Mr. Sharp, a gentlemen of independent cir cumstances, was identified by his watch dangling down, which corresponded with the description left by his friends, and by the clothes upon his bosom having been thick, so that traces of his red braces and the bosom of his fancy shirt were recognised beneath ; in other respects his body could not be known for the remains of a human being, save by a skull being attached to it, there being neither futures, legs, nor arms to be seen, and the trunk being a shape less mass. The body of Hall, as had also been that of Mr. Dobson, was aimost equally undistinguishable. He was one of the missing filerneu of the North British Brigade, and was identified by his son, who had pre viously been dug out near the same place, shortly after the explosion, alive, bytho remains of his thick fireman's clothing. The remaining descriptions of persons missing left at the Gateshead Police-court are those only of a young man and a young woman named Wigham ; but it is not unlikely that a doze❑ or a score of families may yet be found, unknown, with nobody left to inquire after them. The workmen have commenced again this morning, but up to noon had discovered no more bodies. Yester day an immense number of people from the surrounding countryside flocked into the town, crowding every part whence a prospect of the scene of the disaster could be viewed, but fortunately, by the excellent arrangement of the military—cavalry and infantry—who formed a cordon round the whole of the district, erecting barricadesi and placing sentries at every entrance leading to where the tire occurred, not the slightest accident happened. The military have turned the Guildhall in Newcastle, the police station, and other,buildings into temporary guard houses, and are of the greatest'service to the authorities of the, town, who are thus enabled to direct their atten tion to the total extinction of the fire, and the recovery of those still missing. THE NEW CUSTOMS REGULATIONS. Messrs. Peek Brothers, a firm largely engaged in the tea trade, hare addressed a letter to the Commissioners of Customs, with the concurrence of several other leading houses, stating an opinion that the arrangement pro posed with the view of preventing the risk so long com plained of from the payment of duties in coin and bank notes will prove too inconvenient for use. , From their prac tical knowledge there is little reason to suppose they can have adopted this impression erroneously, although it was hoped that the plan would have been found gene rally advantageous. The course they suggest as the one that would beet meet the desired end is as follows : "It may again be (as it has already several times been) asked, what plan, effectually protecting the revenue, would the merchants themselves suggest ? Half-a-dozen have already been named ; but, as far as possible, following my Lords' ideas, the simplest appears to be—to allow the mer chant himself to do what it is proposed to entrust to a Treasury clerk—viz., for him to pay his money, banker's cheque, or own cheque into the Bank of England, and be allowed himself to carry thence to the Custom-house their acknowledgment, as he now carries their notes. The ap prehended risk of forgery 'a ould be no greater in one case than the' other ; but, if wished, from the groat desire which has been shown by the Bank to do what they can to facilitate the adoption of the merchants' wishes, there is great reason to believe they would issue watered or chemically-prepared paper, .so as to render alteration im possible ; indeed, at every even hour, or oftener if thought desirable, the Treasury clerk might get from them direct a duplicate of the sums received, for comparison, which would then leave him ample time to stop all deliveries if any fraud should have been attempted. Such a plan would cause no delay, while all risk, both to revenue and mer chant, would be obviated, and the amount of labour would be lessened." . . THE POSTAL SERVICE TO THE FLEETS.—In a letter from a sailor on board H.M.S Modesto, dated Sept. 5, 1854, and published in the keicestcr Mercury, the writer says :—" My dear Parents,—l have no doubt you will feel surprised when I tell you that I have just got your letter, which cost me ls. 10d. .It is dated Dec. 11, 1853. So you see there must hare been , great neglect somewhere. I hope you will inquire why a person in the navy should have to pay for letters in that manrer, and wait eight months for them. I have to tell you that there is a great outcry amongst the seamen about their letters—one man paid 6s. 10d. for a letter nine months old." [ADVERTISEMENT.] -By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most power ful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses(glazed with Muuic German Glass), to know the distances of objects viewed through them—of great im portance to the army, navy, and others.

Denni s , a nd Mr.. J. Wells, solicitors of London, attended for the Reformers, and Mr. Bar trop for the Tories. Mr. Dennis also attended to sup port the votes of the members of the Westminster Free hold Society, who bad been objected to in respect of their property on the Kent Town Estate, East Moulsey. The first case was that of Mr. Harsant, who was examined, and stated that he held two pieces of building land 37 feet frontage and 147 feet deep, and he had let each for ever for 3/. ground rent. Mr. Hallett was next examined, and stated that he held two pieces of land of the same size and frontage, one let at 3/. a year and the other for 3/. 10s. Mr. John Billing, architect and surveyor, stated that he had gone over the estate at. Kent Town, East Moulsey, which was laid out for building purposes, arid he considered that each plot was worth at least ls. per foot frontage. The roads were made, and there were 23 houQes on the estate. Mr. Walker, a surveyor, residing at Hampton Wick, near the estate, proved that property lot well in that neighbourhood ; and that, taking all parts of the estate,' he considered that every plot was worth at least is. WI per foot for building purposes. Mr. Roberts, surveyorlwas next examined, and hecon sidered that plots varied in value from ls. 6d. to 2s. 6d, per foot for building purposes. In reply to the above evidence, Mr. Bartrop called a gardener, living at Kingston, and Mr. Willis, living at %Vest Moulsey, who gave evidence as to agricultural' value only. Mr. Bartrop submitted that unless the property realised 40s. per annum, the parties could not be en titled to be registered. Mr. Dennes submitted that he bad established a clear' case of value as to every plot on the estate, not only by the evidence of parties who are realising the amount, but by the evidence of competent surveyors. He then referred the Barrister to the 10th Henry VI., chap. 2, which enacts that the knights of all counties within the said realm to be chosen to come to Parliaments hereafter to be holden, shall be chosen in every county whereof every man shall have freehold to the value of 40s. by the year, at the least, above all charges. Ile Barrister—l shall not go beyond the statute, because I have had too much experience of the opinion of sur veyors to consider that they are at all applicable to such a question as this. It is not sufficient for you to call a tract of land building land ; on the other hand, you must not look at it merely for agricultural purposes. I think unless it has been let for 405., as it has been in this case, it will not do. It is not enough that a man hopes some day ,or other that he shall be able to let his land for building purposes, and get 40s. or 50s. for it. Ido not thick that is enough. That is why I asked one or two of the witnesses as to the present value of the land ; all the rest is mere opinion ; it is all speculative. If you can distinguish them as yielding 40s. a year, that will do. Mr Dennes—Can I give better evidence of value than the evidence of competent surveyors ? The Barrister—These properties are not ripe for the vote. I will not argue the matter with you. This is not the first time the point has arisen. Mr. Bartrop—They should be able to expend the 40s. a year out of the estate. The Barrister—ln Mr. Harsant's case I thinke be is entitled. Mr. Dennes—lf his plots aro worth the value, the pieces adjoining are worth the same. The Bar rister—Not at all ; because one piece lets for 31. a-year, therefore a surveyor jumps at the conclusion that the rest will also. Several votes were then expunged from the register, in conformity with the above decision. This closed the revision, the Reformers having a ma jority of 180. BALPII TIIE BURGLAR, AND HIS ESCAPE On Thursday the magistrates fur the parts of Lindsey held a gaol sessions, in the Shire-hall, Lincoln. A report of the state of the prison was read by Mr. F. Burton, the clerk, in which the particulars of Ralph's escape were men tioned. After getting out of his cell he obtained a key, which had been inadvertently left in the cupboard in the warder's room, and by its aid was enabled to get from the corridor into the kitchen. Since his capture at Notting ham, he has confessed to such circumstances as leave no doubt that his escape was effected by his own ingenuity and daring, and that the conjectures respecting any com plicity are wholly erroneous. He states that on leaving the castle walls he went to a friend's' house at Lincoln, where he manufactured a key to take off his irons. Ile also says that he entered the house of a clergyman be tween Lincoln and Nottingham, and left the house with out disturbing any of the inmates, or taking any article. A warrant was received from the Secretary of State on Tuesday, ordering Ralph to be transferred from Lina.ln Castle to the Borough gaol at Leeds, part of which is used as a convict prison. This was taken by Mr. F. Burton to Nottingham on Friday, and delivered to Su perintendent Mason, of the City Police, who conveyed him to Leeds, safely deposited him in the custody of the gaoler there, and then telegraphed the fact to Lincoln. On Friday a Government inspector went over the castle. Captain Nicholson, the governor, it is said, was not absent from the poi at the time of Ralph's escape, as was erroneously stated. It is very difficult to obtain any account of the pro ceedings before the county magistrates, but it is under. stood that the governor and the officials generally are exonerated from blame. It is remarkable that within a few years no less than six prisoners have broken out of this gaol, four of them together in the open day, two of whom escaped and two were taken. The fifth was a debtor mimed Holland, and the sixth Ralph, who has twice effected the most remarkable and daring escape on record.

The rates of freight exhibit considerable heavi r, ,-,44 EVANGELICAL ALLIANCE ASSOCIATION.—Last evening the eighth annual conference of this association was held at the Freemapons'-hall, Great Queen-street, Mr. John Corderoy in the chair. The association was described to be in a prosperous condition. Addresses wore deli vered by the Revs. J. Glanville, J. H. Rule, J.-Whitty, W. Brock, and Mr. Racine Brand, secretary of the French branch of the Alliance, and the doxology having been sung, the proceedings terminated. ALLEGED ATROCIOUS MURDER OF A WOMAN IN WEST. MINSTER.—Last evening a long inquiry was held before Mr. C. Bedford, the coroner for Westminster, at the Prince of Orange Tavern, Brewer's green, Victoria-road, relative to the death of Mary Ann Lever, aged 35 years, an unfortunate woman, whom it was alleged had met her death from the effects of brutal violence inflicted upon her person a few days back, at a house in Orchard street. The inquest was adjourned to a future day. QUARREL ABOUT A Psw.—The Wakefield Journal con tains a report of an assault case, heard before the Barns ley magistrates, arising out of a dispute about a pew in Silk-street Church. • One party got inside the pew and held the door fast ; the other claimant forced his way in, but was seized by the collar and ejected by the other, and his hht thrown after him. And all this was done during the communion service. MEDICAL HOUSE-TO-HOUSE VISITATION.—A letter to the Secretary of State from Dr. H. Gavin, M.D., medical superintending inspector, General Board of Health, has just been published. It brings under Lord Palmerston's consideration a number of tables illustrat in g the results of the medical house-to-house visitation as carried on in the towns of Newcastle, 'Dundee, and Glasgow, from which it appears that for every 26.6 per sons affected with choleraic disease in its first stage, who are aware of their danger, and apply for advice, there are 73.4 persons who do not know their danger, and are sought out and placed under proper treatment. That for every 75 persons who, alarmed by the symptoms of the second stage, applyfor assistance, there are 25 who still ne glect this state of extreme danger, and who are sought out and placed under proper treatment. That for every 77'4 persons who have wholly neglected their condition until the third stage is fully developed, there are still 22.5 who, but for this system of visitation, would be left to perish. That by this system medical aid is almost cer tain to be brought to every individual affected with the disease. At Newcastle 38 persons died without medical aid. 31 of these died before the visitation was com menced. Of the remaining 7.3 were discovered. Of the 30 corpses discovered by the visitors in Newcastle, Dundee, and Glasgow, nearly all were discovered at the commencement of the respective visitations. That by this system the probabilities of death to a those at tacked by the disease are diminished from 200 di thou sand to 3 per thousand. nu .L i k n il leer E a D n U d C O c i N e A n L c y , M t U h S e E MUSEUM.—As necessity A tlschools ihs ioisnneis s sh a uo s r e s ep in tale, and workhouses will becom , e d worth u y n, ie r tthinking auspicesab o o u f t . the The fyeducation, both by the no doubt, advance the Canso of ofluAenassrt.tisn,n:lilEl,xhwibeihtia°vae of the lecture-room, a o l f u t a h b e l e teacheri n the equipment.onceof what Allwe havesuch impetus given through the Soclaiette and and w b h y at aff se n opportunities e rd w i affording t a i n knowledge . educational a t machinery contrived to aid him in his ascertain comparison enable him to n r g i n beforeurat information a e eyes v best expend the scanty funds at highestd all the varieties egree° o ct f h° n lely i a a t e yo l n i his disposal, as well as select the works most suitable for l u ie ch m c a how ta and ad w h b e y r e a his peculiar case.

Brooke having termi nated, he last evening took his benefit. The c4araeter chosen was Macbeth. Immediately on the opening of the doors there was a rush that forcibly remipsjegl us of time-past —the time of: Kean, Kemble, and -Youngs. The theatre was filled immediatelyi_ and even , :the most out-of-the-way corners of the house, where-a glimpse of the stage could be obtained, were eagerly sought after. Of the performance itself we can only say that which all London know, therefore we content ourselves by saying it was magnificent. At the close, Mr. Brooke, who had been vociferously celled, ca free f .yr ward-and addreesed the audience nearly as p‘lfows ' . " Ladies and Gentlemen,—lt is now fourteen months since my first appearance in this "theatre, on My return from the United States, and since that time I have given 375 impersonations at diff , rent towns thrbtighont Great Britain and Ireland. But, notwithstanding the great fatigue, both bodily and mental, attendant upon such labours, I am happy and grateful to say I have still pre served my health. Ido not say this in any spirit of vain boasting, but to show that I have done all that lay in my power to meet the wishes of an indulgent public, and I have been buoyed up through all these arduous labours by the cheers and smiles of an approving public, and felt my self repaid in the emotion of a moment. Perhaps I might be excused for saying this much, but on the eve of my de parture for a far distant land, and when it may be years before I again have the pleasure of appearing before- yon, I cannot refrain from giving utterance to my feelings." Mr. Brooke then in a very feeling manner bade the audience farewell, and, having returned thanks, retired. During the delivery of his short address Mr. Brooke evi dently laboured under the ereatest emotion, and at times he became so overpowered by his feelings as to be•scarcely able to proceed. HAYMARKET. The spirited lessee of the little theatre in the Hay market seems determined to keep up an uninterrupt e d stream of attraction for his patrons. The Spanish Dancers havindconcluded a most successful engagement both foi :themselves and the management, novelty, even during that engagement, was sought after, add found in th e . person of Mr. Hudson. Last even ing again gave evidence of the determination of the lessee. Mr. Wright, the great Adelphi favourite, made his bow as Paul Pry. It is needless to say his recap• tion was of the most cordial description. A. Miss Schott made a most promising debut as Marion. PRINCESS'S THRA.TRE. ' This theatre opened for the season last night with a new drama in three acts, by Mr. Douglas Jerrold, called "A heart of Gold." An original play by so emi nent an author is an occurrence of no common interest ; the house, consequently, was crowded, and the piece met with a reception which showed that the audience did not feel themselves disappointed. The plot of the piece is simple. The heroine, Maude Nutbrown, is a country girl, the daughter of a substan tial farmer. She arida], young man named Pierce are lovers, but her father has rafused his consent to their union because the lover is poor. Maude has another lover—John Dymond, a country gentleman superior to her in station, but so deeply attached to her that he is reduced by her coldness to the verge of the grave. When the piece opens, the young girl and her fatherare on a visit to London and staying at an inn. Both her lovers are also there ; Dymond having followed her, prompted, it would appear, only by despair. The two lovers are friends ; Dymond having an affection for his younger rival as being the son of a friend of his father. Worn out by the agonies of his passion, Dymond sinks, into a state of exhaustion : believing himself dying, he sends for his young friend, and before the people of the house assembled for the purpose, bestows upon hint a box containing a thousand guineas, desiring them to bear witness that it is his free gift : and he couples the gift with a lecture to the young man upon the all-powerful nature ofg,old, describinr , it as the most valuable of earthly po , sessions, and counselling him, under every circum stance, to hold it fast. Having made this donation in a way which makes it very like the ill-omened gift of some malignant fairy in a nursery tale, Dymond, to all ap pearance, expires upon the stage. But it is not so. 14 the next act we find him alive. He has recovered from a long illness, and is at an inn near his residence in the country. Meanwhile Pierce's possession of the thousand guineas has removed old Nutbrown's objections to him as a son-in-law. The marriage is fixed ; and the bells are actually ringing for church when Dymond, like one returned from the dead, stands among them. The true-hearted Maude, who, if she could not love him, has always regarded him with friendship and pity, is transported with joy ; hut Pierce stands like a statue, gloomy and silent. An eclaircissement takes place : Pierce, called upon to return the money which Dymond had given him as a dying man, doggedly refaces to do so in spite of Maude's taurs and supplications. Indig nant at this display of his sordid nature, Maude ex claims she would not marry him if he were a king, and, in the enthusiasm of the !nutrient, gives her hand to his rival. So ends the second a,3t. Dymond is now happy, his union with Maude being about to take place. But she has deceived herself as to the state of her heart she loves Pierce as much as ever, and is wretched, while he, repenting of his previous conduct, resolves to return the money which lies so heavily on his mind. He does so ; bitterly reproaching Dymond for having entrapped hire by a temptation which has proved his ruin, Maude, who overhears the conversation, rushes into her lover's arms ; and their union forms the denouement of the piece. Miss Heath, as Maude, sustained the part with great effect ; indeed, she made it the part of the play. Miss Murray, as the maid servant, acquitted herself with her usual ability. This young lady is a good actress, and would be a better if she would rely upon her own con ception of a part, without imitating, as was palpably the case last evening, Mum, Ksoley. The other parts in the piece were all creditably supported. The play was decidedly successful, and was given out for repetition every evening amid the applause of a house crowded to the ceiling. OLYUP/C. Yesterday evening this theatre was opened for the winter season. There were nu novelties in the way of dramas produced, but the comedietta of a Match. in the Dark was revived for the first appearance of Miss Fitz patrick. That young lady was very warmly welcomed, and will prove an acquisition to the company. The rieeting between the audience and the old favOurites of the theatre was cordial and pleasant ; Mr. F. Robson hod an enthusiastic reception. The singing of the Na tional Anthem introduced Miss Julia St. George and Miss E. Ormonde, who are also additions to the former corps. The dramas of Bus& Money and Perfect Confi dence were played with a freshness and spirit which were appreciated by the audience, who seemed as much de. lighted as if they had never seen them before. There was a good house, and everything went capitally. The opening night was decidedly auspicious. SIIE:,REY; The dramatic season at thi4 theatre commenced last night with a new piece called The Avalanche, written by Mr. A. Harris. It is evidently of French origin ; the scenery is laid in France and Piedmont, and the princi pal character is a soldier of the first French empire. Francois Marcel (Mr. Creswick), a mountain guide, has a wife (Gertrude), who is the heiress of a large fortune. This is known to Luidgi, Count Vincengo (Mr.Verner), who wishes to turn his knovvleck:e to his own account, and for that purpose employs an assassin to dispose of Marcel. The assassin, however, by mistake, kills General Duclos, whom Marcel. was guiding over the mountains ; and Marcel is covered by an avalanche, but he and a shepherd previously discover the assassin, dying, and who confesses who was the instigator of the murder. Between the first and second acts an inter val of eighteen years is supposed to have elapsed. Gertrude is married to Count Vincengo, who wishes to procure the marriage of Genevieve, Marcel's daughter, to a creature of his own, in order to prevent his being called to account for her fortune, the greater phrtion of which he has spent. This marriage, how ever, both mother and daugliter strenuously resist, and faiour a proposed union with Col. Duclos, the son; of a the murdered general. The Count, rendered desperate • by the state of his affairs, by the help of Flashenbausen k a German Jew (Mr. Vollaire), determines to disPoie et I Genevieve. At this time Marcel, who, when he escaped •:( front the avalanche had become a soldier, had become a , cabraan in Paris ; and Vi ncengo an d th e Jew waylay - Genevieve and 'throw her into the Seine, and by one of . 1 these coincidences which happen only on the stage, Marcel had at that moment gone to the river to fetch water for his horse. He saves Genevieve, but does not know that she is his daughter, he having lost sight of living., The his wife and daughter ever since the falling of the ava lanche, and not knowing , where they we r e relationship is subsequently discovered, course in marries y ceng?'s Colonelraoality D d u e e f i defeated, and piece is well kept up 'to the close, and giies rise to [ wine interestin g situations. Mr. Cretwiok a cted the part of Marcel with excellent taste, and Mis s A d ert on personated ofthe o f The nidante Genevieve rest Gertrude with a good d ofl p d ower and discretion.
