LITER. ATURE. 441 4 and the War. By Captain Jesse. Long- , man and Co. compact little volume, descriptive of the Rus tl Empire,b in reference to the war now raging eeen it and the chief powers of Christendom, ) . 7 here been given to the world by the author of ur raY's Handbook to Russia, Captain William dk - ' 0 , c ) of Maisonette, Ingatestone. It is among the ocoroprehensive in design, as it is also, without kte 'ut, among the most authentic in particulars, 141 1 " all the scarcely numerable works lately pub- t he of a similar character. It certainly begins inquir ing' !beginning—chapter one pertinently Who caused the war ?"—the answer to that 1 0 i7' 1 7 being, of course, "Nicholas." Then fol te a fragment of Muscovite History, having re / l ice to a few of the Autocrats, spelt by Captain kqe ' not Czars, but Tzars. Among those poten tkth.e 8 are the following—lvan 111., Ivan IV. Peter PGreat, Catherine 1., Peter 11., Anne, Ivan ') Elizabeth, Peter 111., Catherine the Great, , and so down in regular succession to his two 14Vial sons, Alexander and Nicholas. Our eOr having brought us gradually down to the °rable reign of the Czar immediately contem liZrY) next traces in a keen outline the narrow 4t4of Russian civilisation. His account of the ti ort v is usliment of the Imperial Despotism of the i tt 'cra Autocrat leads him naturally enough to a ,ription. of the manner in which the vast armies it ie lt ,ltasia are organised. The Russian serfs and th e "ussian nobility are respectively delineated, and contrast presented to the mind's eye is, of p k ; g 2e) sufficiently extraordinary. The subjoined w o Zge will be found on perusal to have been well ih 4ernan's ,„cY of quotation en . It comprises first of all a and th a lady's description of— THE EMPEROR NICHOLAS. The boast of the Russians, that among a thousand l r ll,t o would not fail to recognise the Emperor, is . n 7 l 3' exaggerated. His figure is commanding, and tsjytttenance striking ;, his height is nearly six feet and his frame unites symmetry with strength ; his deBlB peculiarly fascinating ; but the high forehead, :4 8 ' ,01 't and curved upper lip, and the expression of a b small mouth, impart somewhat of sternness to :features when in repose ; his naturally fair corn -1'47)4 is bronzed by exposure to the sun, but the fore- Where, the cap has she'tered it, is white as marble. ?Itte eye is quick and expressive, and a small mous ,"e adds to his soldierlike appearance.' Such is a ; 411 officer's sketch of the Emperor Nicholas. A ii t v 'r and romantic lady, at about the same period, 4 4 th e following His figure, to which there is no t ta „ ti d in Russia, if in the world is of the grandest lVtl', expression, dimension, and carriage, uniting all littiaiceties and graces of ail the heathen gods — the r ti bh ", god of Love alone perhaps excepted. Had these to t ,e and symmetrical proportions, this nobility of per -44; u elonged to a common mujik, instead of to the 1 8 ° erat of all the Russias, admiration could not be ti le ' tor scarcely the feeling of moral awe. It was not 04„ 410 carch who was so magnificent a man, but the t,",' 4 'ho was so truly imperial. His p-rson is that of i w - ,'°ssad man in the full prime of life and health, forty weilYears of ag , e, about six feet two inches high, and 4,, d 4 ed out, without any approach to corpulency, the tlio' i v erY magnificently carried, a splendid breadth of qider and chest, great length and symmetry of limb, Q„ ,finely -formed hands and feet. His face is strictly 14 14 n, forehead and nose in one grand line, the eyes tll4 / lined, large, open, and blue, with a calmness and ih e 4 2 2B , a freezing dignity, which can equally quell an 'rection, daunt an assassin, or paralyse a petitioner ; thtirtionth regular, teeth fine, chin prominent, with dark lii, f B tache and small whiskers, but not a sympathy on His mouth sometimes smiles, his eyes never. k e ,i e is that in his look which no monarch's subject can kp f His eye seeks every one's gaze, but none can 14,1: 0 0t his.' This is very graphic, and, for a maiden in sufficient detail ; the similarity of the two 'Ptions is evidence of their accuracy. Like a kh° 4ll Saul,' says another writer, 'he soars above his t , at dee ts- " from the shoulder ter Prototype, Agamemnon,s upwards," or like his Majestically tall, Whi l ‘ o \vers o'er his armies, and outshines them all;' le his strength appears to be of au equally colossal ttipi" l "rd. His majesty can sleep anywhere and eat tirtng ; or he can watch, and ho can fast, if needful, .pithmeasuring the powers of others by his own, the of the officers immediately under him is frequently tr .: ( l ced to their over exertions ; at the same time ludi kh.tt S instances have occurred of gentlemen of highly l e r leeti c i n di ca ti ons w h ose li ves h a d been considerably q pt bened by the anti plethoric requirements of the k rt l i )eror's service, and their forced attendance in his 14 11 , a go, or kibitka (a kind of britscka), when making of his whirlwind expeditions from Tobolsk to „" B "'', or from Finland to the Black Sea. As to the 4,i 4 cter of the individual who now represents the al Majesty of Russia, it is one that will repay care di4,llq hi yestigation. His firmness is unalterable, hisin -44` unfailing, his justice, as it emanates from !ri keti, srict, his prefer e nces steady, his consistency rigid , 11, 1 , 11 1 s perseveranc e un d aun t e d through all obstacles. l e "he has neither the cultivation of mind that should itt l to clear views and sound judgment, nor the native tl ha ligence that should supply its place ; and both Ik e e qualities being wanting, those we have enumerated inkg often seen violently impelled in a wrong direction t.: a right, as often expending their strength in the th e k efttion of mere nonsenses, the length of a spur or r tn u readth of a button, as in wrestling with deep-rooted As was said of him by one of the most en t:iened, and, moreover, loyal of his own nobility, p 4 ° 40 good, three essential qualities are n ecessary,— 1 1 e r, good will, and knowledge : he possesses the two N .",, but not the last—in a word, he is ignorant.' f e i'alas is the ideal tape of his people, the most faith- Vcpresentative of their characters and their vices. iletl o Game love of show which characterises the Russian tb e jh is nowhere seen stronger than in the person of (41 Emperor and while he astounds all strangers, and 14' t vates most of them by the dazzling splendour of tl u eourt, they little suspect what filthy rags compose li o " garments of the state.' By the foregoing descrip klilt it will be seen that the preset Autocrat of all the tOias is a perfect specimen of the human race—ex kti'"lll°' in two rather important points, the intellect t[ i ‘ the heart ; he was born for the feudal times, not for civilized ones of this century." S uch is the present chief of that wonderful and oual despotism which was wittily described by D 4 lt, t ",e , yrand as " Une monarchie absolue limitee lassassinat"—an absolute monarchy limited by t 4 aination. In the very able chapter (xiii.) :inag Captain Jesse's volume, tile events of the k t b li few years are brought down from 1848 to the t , al declaration of war against Russia by the c ueli and English Governments. 24 Emperors Alexander and Nicholas. By A Robert Lee, M.D. Richard Bentley. 4 0 ' 1 4 old bundle of manuscripts, in other words a 182rah,1 kept by Dr. Lee between the winter of and 1827, has been " overhauled" by its ti ter, and out of a selection from among its motley k ri lerials has grown up the present happily - timed I v i' 4 „ very readable compilation. The author speaks bi i 'u the authority—seeing that he was neither 4, 4(1 nor de: f--of an eye-witness and an ear-wit rjb4! to many of the incidents described in his ani edk narrative. That narrative, as the title-page l ka ,es promise of its doing, comprises a record of "the 4", days" of Alexander, and of " the first days" of 4nolas_Emperors of Russia. It opens with the November, 1824, when the writer landed at f a " ?gne on his way to Odessa, there to join the 14 1 11t lY of Count Woronzow in the capacity of tesicia.n to his Excellency. It closes with t he mo re of January, 1827, when Dr. Lee arrived once in London after his return from the Russian b,rritorie . Here is our author's brief but touching s - `etaento of THE DEATH OF ALEXANDER. `` The scene was most affecting when the Emperor,. 15 11 th e 19th, expired. The Empress had been kneeling pis bed-side, with her eyes fixed upon him, as he gr a dually became weaker and weaker, until all signs of I ,,,'Nere gone. Then, rising, she closed his eyes, and I: t u a handkerchief bound up his head, to support the l e rjaw. After this, she folded his arms over his (1 1 , ` 4 ''t, kissed his hand, and then knelt down by the side T h the dead body for half-an-hour in prayer to God. r° ughout the whole of his Majesty's illness, she 4nifested the strongest attachment to her husband ; nd at his death was inconsolable." t c 3 gether the little volume, scarcely extending to t re than 200 pages, will be found to abound with ~,,° - ` l ° ll s and interesting information. I ke Year-Book of Facts for 1854. By John Timbs. Bogue. sixteen volumes of this remarkable s eria l have hi c 'v been published—sixteen volumes recording the ° St important discoveries and improvements made th t w een 1839 and 1854, Facts in Mechanics and I:rseful Arts, in Natural Philosophy, in Eie c city,i i in Chemistry, in Zoology and Botany, in t: logy and Geography, in Astronomy and Me iii"tOlogy. The sixteenth, the volume before us, 4, 4 triong them all very far indeed from being the Tit remarkable. As its vignette, it contains on tlltle-page a glimpse of the building of the " Cry- Ri Palace at Sydenham." As its frontispiece, it I . s es us a portrait taken from a daguerreotype by c e t ',ldet, of Arago, one of the illustrious deceased t he past twelve months. -GLISH GLEE AND MADRIGAL UNION.--The first 4t ,"rt ci s s Rooms yesterday , f this talented company of vocalists was given aq inpresence of a crowded si r; lashionable audience.

ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. The new French operatic company were much more success ful last night when they performed Clapisson's La Promise than they were in their first essay before the London public, on Wednesday last, in Adams's Bijou Perdu. La Promise is better both in book and music, and it included some good artistes who did not appear on the opening night. The cast was precisely the same as at the Parisian Theatre Lyrique, where the opera ran for upwards of 100 nights. There, as here, Madame Marie Cable was the chief attraction, and in deed her singing and acting as the heroine are so charming, and thoroughly French withal, that we can scarcely wonder at the furore they created amongst our excitable neighbours, or the ready acceptance they have met with here, where every thing good of its kind is sure to be encouraged. She person ated a young girl, betrothed to one man, but in love with another; and, to make matters worse, her destined hus band is the dear friend and benefactor of her beloved. The latter returns from sea just as the wedding is about to take place ; but, preferring his friend's happiness to his own, he heroically conceals his passion, although, like the Spartan boy's stolen fox, it is tearing its possessor to pieces. But still greater trials await him, for the bridegroom, who is abruptly called away before the completion of the mar riage ceremony, leaves him to protect the lady during his absence. This leads to many ludicrous situations, for the un willing bride, piqued by the apparent indifference of him whom she really loves, exercises all the potent spells of co quetry to make him betray his trust. So long as he is awake and in his senses, there appears to be no chance of her suc ceeding, so she contrives to make him tipsy, and send him to sleep. Believing in the "in vino veritas" doctrine, she is de lighted to hear her name tenderly murmured, and passionate declarations of love stammered forth by the object of her af fection when in what may be considered an irresponsible state, and, having learned that the absent gentleman has sworn never to marry a woman who has even suffered the tips of her fingers to be kissed by another, she manages at last to compromise her lover so far as to render the hated union im probable, if not impossible.

DECIMAL COlNAGE.—Yesterday a public meeting of merchants and bankers and others interested in the adoption of a decimal system of weights, measures, and coinage was held at the London Tavern, Mr. W.Browne, M.P., in the chair. The chairman gave the meeting a succinct account of the origin and progress of the move ment in favour of the decimal system, from the time when the late Lord Wrottesley, then Sir John Wrot tesley, brought it before the House of Commons forty years since. The next step was the royal commission of 1838, presided over by the astronomer royal, which reported in favour of such a system. This report was followed by a lull until the public were again awakened to the importance of the change by his own and Sir John Bowring's labours. The people were now desirous of having such a system, and petitions were daily pouring into Parliament praying for its introduc tion, and all that was wanted was to convince the Chancellor of the Exchequer that the country was ripe for the change, which could be effected with ease. Mr. Hodgson moved, and Mr. J. Ingram Travers seconded al resolution, which set forth that the establishment of a complete decimal system would effect ac important saving of tune, and insure accuracy in all commercial and monetary transactions, would render our coins, weights, and measures more intelligible to foreigners, and more in accordance with these of the countries with which the greater part of our trade is carried on, and would greatly facilitate popular instruction in arithmetic, sparing the time and energies of both pupils and teachers. An association was then formed to spread information, collect subscriptions, and to take measures to secure the early issue of the requisite decimal coins.

This lady possesses all the requisite personal charms for the stage, graceful and lady-like manners and action, a brilliant eye, and a very intelligent and expressive countenance. Her style of acting is full, varied, and highly effective ; and, if at any time it ap peared to approach excess, it arose more from inefficient sup port than any fault in the taste and discretion of the actress herself. Miss Fitzpatrick, as far as any judgment can be formed from the performance of one part only, may be pro nounced a perfect mistress of her art, and she requires a much larger and a better appointed stage than where we saw her last evening, for the complete development of her talents. A call before the curtain, much applause, and a bouquet, con stituted the reward for her exertions. Mrs. Laws played the Widow Green with a good deal of effect. Miss C. Wharton played Lydia well, and in an unassuming manner, and Mr. E. Jones proved himself a steady and good actor as Sir William Fondlove. SURREY THEATRE. 11 2 JUNE 13, 1854. PENINSGLAR AND ORIENTAL STEAM COMPANY. At the half-yearly meeting of the Peninsular and Ori • ental Steam Company, held yesterday, the report was unanimously adopted. A recommendation of the directors to suspend she declaration of a dividend until the comple tion of the annual accounts produced apparently some dis appointmeEt, but created little discussion, full confidence being expressed in the management. It was stated that the increased cost of fuel, with the general advance in wages and materials, has interfered with the revenue of the company, but that the receipts continue to exceed the expenditure. A. fresh appeal is to be made to Government for relief in connexion with the contract for postal service, and if this shall prove unsuccessful, the opinion of the shareholders :s to be taken as to future proceedings. With regard to the emoluments of managing directors, Mr. B. M. Willcox has voluntarily resigned his share, retiring from active Zuties, but continuing his seat at the board. Mr. Arthur Anderson relinquishes about half of his allow ance, appropriating a portion to the institution of a provi dent' and gaod service fund for the officers and servants of the compauyi but for the present retains his appointment. Special votes of thanks were passed for these concessions, and it is proposed that some substantial acknowledgment shall hereafter be offered. Annexed is an abstract of the report ; " In order to meet, in some degree, the increased expenses caused by the high cost of fuel, &c. the directors deemed it necessary to recur, on and after the 4th of February last, to rates of passage fares similar to those which existed previ ous to the Ist of January, 1853, when they were reduced on the opening of the communication twice a-month with India and china. Looking to the growing requirements of trade and intercourse in the East, the expediency of econo niziug the navigation of the company's lines of communica tion, by providing vessels with screw propulsion, and to the propriety of making timely arrangements for liquidating the sums bore wed on debentures, the directors in the early part of this year, applied to the Crown for a supplemental charter of incorporation, to enable the company to increase its capital by one million sterling. This charter has been granted, and the new shares will bo issued at par, in the proportions of two new shares to three old shares. The directors do not contemplate any immediate issue of these new shares, nor do they expect that they will be under the necessity of calling for more than a small proportion of the additional capital to be issued Oereby for some time to come. At the last annual general meting the directors reported fully their proceed ings in respect to the application made to the Government for relief under the difficulties in which the company was placed in executing the contract postal service, which had arisen from the scarcity of shipping and the enhanced cost of fuel at the various depots. Although that application was unsuccessful, the declaration of war against the Em peror of Russia was considered to afford a proper ground for again making a similar application, inasmuch as the de claration of war was an act of tho Government, which has not only greatly aggravated, but will, in all probability, render continuous the increase in the cost of fuel, seamen's wages, naval stores, marine insurance, and other expenses of navigation. The directors have therefore applied again to her Majesty's Government for such an augmentation of the payment for the postal service as the company may be found fairly entitled to, in consideration of the altered state of cir cumstances caused by the war ; and the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have so far responded to the application as to intimate their willingness to institute an inquiry into the matter, which will soon take place. The groundsupon which the present claim has been based aro so reasonable, that the board can scarcely anticipate a second failure in obtaining relief at the hands of Government. Should they be disappointed in this expectation, they will, if necessary, call a special meeting of the shareholders, to take into consideration the future policy of the company. On the transit through Egypt the directors are enabled to report satisfactorily. The Pasha has, iu addition to other facilities, agreed to a reduction of one-half of the transit duty from the Ist of July next, as a preliminary step to its entire removal. This arrangement is applicable to the travellers and commerce of all countries ; and, as the transit duty forms at present a heavy addition to the cost of transit of valuable articles, such as raw silk, Sic., its reduction and abolition will remove a serious obstruction to the adoption of the route of Egypt for such articles ; and, in conjunction with new regulations about to be adopted for meeting the growing requirements of this trade, can scarcely fail to prove highly beneficial to the company's interests. The construction of the railway between Alexandria and Cairo is progressing with vigour. About 30 miles of the railway from the Cairo terminus towards Alex andria is also constructed, leaving only 36 miles now to com plete the whole line between Alexandria and Cairo. This, it is expected, will be finished in the course of next year, and will entirely supersede the water conveyance by the Nile, and re duce the journey between Alexandria and Cairo to about six hours. Considering that the whole of the fuel consumed during the six months embraced in the period of this report was purchased at enormously enhanced prices—that most of the new ships have been kept back from completion and em ployment by the strikes of workmen and other uucontrol able circumstances—that the execution of the contract postal service has caused an expenditure excelling the pay ment received for it, and that the claim for indemnification on that account remains yet undetermined—the directors feel compelled to recommend that any declaration of dividend should be postponed to the next annual general meeting, when statements of the company's accounts will, as usual, be laid before you, and when they trust the receipts and expen diture of the company may exhibit a more favourable result than they can reasonably be expected to do at present. In stead of drawing upon probable future profits to supply a present deficiency, or ceasing to set aside those reserves which are necessary to maintain the property at its original value, and provide for its security against accident, the directors deem it the wisest and most honest course to recommend no dividend, unless arising from clear profits realised during the period on which they report ; and, while advising that which they trust will prove to be a temporary inconvenience rather than depart from the system hitherto adopted, they feel much satisfaction in being able to state that the property and financial position of the company are in a sound state, the fleet in efficient order, and the future prospects of the enter prise by no means discouraging."

TIIE MINISTERIAL ARRANGEMENTS. The vacation of his scat last night by Sir George Grey, in consequence of his acceptance of the seals of the Colonial office, removed all doubts that may have existed as to the correctness of the anticipations which we placed before our readers with regard to the new arrangements in the Cabinet. Not a single question was asked, not a single observation was made, when Mr. Hayter moved the new writ, notwithstand ing the indications that have rendered it evident that there is within the camp of the Government a very angry and bitter personal as well as party struggle going on, and notwith standing, what is a still more important circumstance, the patent proof which the public has before its eyes, that the professions of Lord Aberdeen and his immediate followers about administration reform are hollow as the men who made them, and that the real requirements of the Public Service has been made either a sacrifice or a cloak to political in trigues or party jealousies. We do not complain, except on one point, to which w e refer below, of Sir George Grey being made Secretary of State for the Colonies in such a Cabinet as the present. Sir George Grey is a public servant of high per sonal character, great experience, and tried ability; and, speaking generally, we sliould be inclined to describe him as a Minister of a higher rather than a lower calibre than the noble duke who preceded him, and we should have been quite content to see him eliminate the Duke of Newcastle ; but we object most strenuously, now that we understand how limited the powers of the new Secretary of State for War are to be, and how trifling his duties, to the retention of both, and to a supplemental estimate for the maintenance of a Minister and a Department, who is only to be, as he always has been, an impediment. We trust that, upon this occasion, the House of Commons will pluck up a little heart of grace, and do something more to the purpose than ask questions. They are always ready enough to do that, and, indeed, half the public time is wasted in putting questions which lead to nothing except full per mission to the catechised to do just as they please, even to the length of adding another 5001. a-year to the Clerk of the Council, convicted by his own letters of already receiving 2,0001. for doing nothing, and, in the teeth of their own re commendation, putting a new Commissioner into the Board of Audit. These, however, are comparatively minor matters; but if the House of Commons should allow so flagrant a piece of mal-administration to be quietly carried into effect as that which Lord Aberdeen explained in his speech of Friday night that he had decided upon, the House, we are sure will lose, and very deservedly lose, the confidence of the country. They must do something more now, if they would keep it, than ask puerile questions. They must force upon the Government one of two alternatives—either that they should altogether withdraw their proposition for a new and additional Secre tary of State ; or, that they shall present a complete and bona fide scheme for the reorganisation of the civil service of the army. Why should we be encumbered with the Duke of New castle, with a new department attached to him, if he is only to be still like the buoy-boat in a yacht race—a something we are to go round before we can attain our object'? What will be the use of him if our armies, hungry and thirsty, are still to go for their commissariat supplies to the First Lords of the Treasury, whose proper business is the control of pay ments, and not the issue of barrels of ale and porter-- , -or if every time any of the troops want new arms or fresh stable pails, their colonel is still to have to move the Commander in-Chief to desire the Secretary-at-War to require the Secre tary of State to take the royal pleasure as to whether or no he shall direct the Ordnance to issue them from the store keeper's department ? In the days of our youth, we remem ber to have thought the story of " The House that Jack Built" a very complicated piece ; but what was that to this ? Think of the extraordinary number of people who must be put iu movement, and of the complication of diverse offices which must be brought into concurrent action before troops can be moved, clothed, fed, shaved, or left unshaved, lighted or bedded, and then you will find ample matter for wonder, not that the French landed their soldiers better, quartered them more comfortably, and clothed them more suitably than ours, but that ours should have got to their destination at all with or without the ale and porter which our letters of yes terday describe them as painfully waiting for, and with or without the cotton night-caps which Lord Hardinge is think- iug. of making for their shakos. It is very true that we have with that same organisation of departments which we now have, and find fault with, con ducted great wars, and conducted them to a successful and glorious issue : but it is in spite of them, and not by any aid that they afforded, that those wars were so conducted. Not a man engaged in them, from the private soldier to tho Field Marshal, or from the commissariat clerk to the Prime Minis ter, but felt and acknowledged that they were an impediment to energy, and a bar to rapidity of action and movement. The question is, Are we to go ou with these impeding compli cations as we have done before, and contriving, perhaps, as we have done before, to get through our work pretty success fully, though with a good deal of wasteful expenditure of men and money, or are we to apply the experiences we have bought practically and get rid of them ? When the Poetic party assumed to be the de facto Govern ment in a mixed Cabinet, they asked us to have patience— they asked us not, at the outset of their career, to expect or to press for political measures. It was a reasonable request. Till "of more familiarity had come contempt" it was not likely that a Government so peculiarly constructed could frame harmoniously measures involving great political prin ciples. The public assented, exhibited the greatest patience, and showed the greatest indulgence to an unusual combina tion of political men engaged in a great experiment. The pub lic were assured in return that they should have a much bet ter thing than political measures—they should have great ad ministrative reforms. The Peelite party embraced, so them selves and their organs said, the ablest and most experienced administrators in the kingdom, and in their hands public departments would become so changed, that old worn-out Whigs and Tories, and blundering Derbyites would not know them again. Lord Aberdeen has been some time at the head of affairs, aided by the Duke of Newcastle, Mr. Gladstone, and Mr. Cardwell, and yet we see none of these reforms or improvements in administration. Mr. Gladstone can't manage the money market, Mr. Cardwell can't manage the railway department of the Board of Trade, the Duke of Newcastle has had his knuckles rapped by the House of Commons for mal administration of his patronage ; and the utmost that the party united can think of, by way of making provision for the vigorous and rapid conduct of a great war, is to create a new Secretary of State, whose exclusive duty it is to be to make memoranda of all the hitches that occur. Truly, if this be the administrative wisdom of the Peelites, we would rather go back to the folly of our ancestors.—Morning Post. ~;~_'; ~~9.'1~i.

A weekly contemporary, whose sources of information on foreign matters, appear to be of a very exclusive and trust- worthy character, has for some weeks past affirmed, in the most explicit terms, that the noble lord at the head of the Government has entered into an engagement with the Courts of Vienna and Berlin to conclude an armistice with Russia. preparatory to the establishment of a peace—based on the state of matters which existed before--the moment that the Czar consents to evacuate the Principalities. The Press not only communicates this intelligence, but pledges its character for the accuracy of it. And one f our morning contemporaries not only transfers the article into his columns, but indorses its truth, on the authority of sources of information peculiar to himself. Our weekly contempo rary, moreover, challenges the noble lord whose name it im plicated, to contradict his statements, if he can. That chal lenge has been before the public for ten days ; it was repeated on Saturday last ; and yet it has not been accepted. Th• statement has not been contradicted. The truth of the alle- gation has not been denied. The matter is one of too grave a character to be permitted to rest where it is. Why does not some of the noble lord's peers put th e ques ti on to him, whether there be any truth in the statement ? Why does not the Marquis of Clanricards put such questions as may elicit information as to the red state of the case ? The public are vitally interested in the question. It deeply affects the national honour, as well as the material interests of the country. The future well-being, and even the peace of Europe, depend upon it., and therefore the matter should not be suffered to remain in a state of un• certainty. The assertion is not made in is di s m ti a n d e e tl i y n a t fu he nns m o , s t t h s a p t e t c h ifi e c s tL ret negotiaZ s. vagT: ur language. The charge e o e n k s ly wh co ic n h te ha mp d o be raZ going on for some time between Austria and Prussia, with the view of terminating the Turkish war in such a manner would save tho honour and spare th e susceptibilities of tt Czar, have been brought to a favourable conclusion . • and propose an they mean, with the concurrence of Ni c h o l as, to an armistice to the belligerents, as a preliminary to a gen eral Conference of the European Powers, which is to arrange the terms of a permanent peace. The concessions which Russia is willing to make, if concessions they can be called, are, that Austria shall have a joint control over the navigation of the mouths of the Danube,—that ships of war be permitted to pass the Dardanelles—and that the treaty of Kainardji bo tweeu Russia and Turkey be subjected to the construction which the Conference may think tit to put on its provisions. All this Russia was ready to acquiesce in as far back as October last, before the united squadrons had entered either the Black Sea or the Baltic. The whole affair, therefore, is a Muscovite dodge. The movement has been made at the insti gation of the Czar. And it must be admitted to be a very in genious expedient, for if the Western Powers should agree to the proposals made by Austria and Prussia, Nicholas will be able to retire from tho war, without any feeling of mortifica tion. He would be able to say that he had from the first ex pressed his willingness to accede to terms of peace on such conditions. If, on the other hand, France and England per emptorily refuse to accede to any such terms, Austria and Prussia, acting on the suggestions of the Czar, will have a new and more plausible pretext than before for remaining neutral in the war between Russia and Turkey, and in that way play the game of the Autocrat. But the matter which more immediately concerns US to know is this—Can it be true that the head of the English Go vernment has become a consenting party to this new device on the part of the Courts of Vienna and Berlin, acting under the inspiration of the Court of St. Petersburg? That is what our weekly contemporary affirms, and in the truth of which a daily contemporary expresses his entire belief. The country has a right to know whether the charge be well founded or groundless. It is one of much too grave a character to hate hanging over the head of a public man, without being denied, if it has no foundation in fact. And the noble lord himself, who cannot pretend ignorance of it—for he reads both the journals in whose columns it has appeared--ought to feel that he is bound alike in duty to him self and to the country, to meet the allegation with a direct denial, if it is destitute of foundation. His continued silenee will be construed into a tacit admission of its truth; and should it unfortunately prove to be true, it will be one of the most serious charges that ever have been established against a Mi nister of England in modern times. It will justify the terms, " England's Betrayal," applied to it by our weekly contem porary. It is a sacrifice to the Czar of the honour and the interests of this country. It is, besides, a betrayal of the interests of all Europe. And to complete the gravity of the affair, it will, if true, be found that the noble lord, in becoming a party to such a course of action, has done so without th knowledge or con currence of his colleagues in the Cabinet ; for we cannot al low ourselves for a moment to believe, that the question had ever been brought before a Cabinet ouneil, much less re ceived its sanction. If this be so, there is not a man in the Administration who does not owe it to himself to ascertain whether the charge be true or not. The colleagues of the Premier ought to remember that if the country sees so grave an accusation in general circulation, and no contradiction offered to it, the conclusion at which it will naturally arrive is, not only that the charge is true as regards the noble lord, but that they are severally implicated in it—for the country cannot be expected to suppose that he would have taken so important a step as virtually to concede everything to Russia, without their knowledge and concurrence. It is, therefore, on all accounts, desirable in the highest degree, that the real state of matters should be ascertained. The public have a right to know what aro the actual facts of the case ; and were that public faithfully represented in the House of Commons, questions would have been put before now to the leader of the house, with the view of getting at the real position of affairs. The country, unhappily, is not properly represented in the Commons. But bad as matters are in this respect, surely some one may be found in the house who will elicit the desired infer , illation. What has come of Mr. Layard ? Ho used to display independence, as well as information, on all matters bearing on the Eastern question. But he, also, has been mute of late. His voice is no longer heard. He not only has ceased to put troublesome questions to Ministers, but he has ceased to open his lips at all. Mr. Hume, Mr. Roebuck, and Mr. Thomas Duncombc, used also to display groat independence in the way of putting questions to the Treasury benches, which more timid members had not the courage to ask. But the prevailing complaint in the Commons—a loss of indepen dence and of patriotism in matters of this nature—has seized them also. It is a very sad and unsatisfactory reflection that such should be the state of matters. We have, indeed, fallen on degenerate days. A thoroughly independent and intelli gent man would, in the present position of matters, raise himself in a few weeks to the highest pinnacle of Parliamen• tary popularity. —Morning Advertiser. \ ..,..?,, - < .;. c\ r--(.. ....... -.,,_ ..,...,, ~,,,• ,) ._,, TIM MINISTERIAL CLIANG.ES AND THE CITY OF LONDON ELECTION. The Sheriff has fixed to-morrow (Wednesday) for the Elec tion in the City of London, when the Guildhall will doubtless be well filled by those anxious to hear the harangues of Lord John Russell and Mr. Urquhart. A meeting of Liberals has taken place atiwhich it was resolved to give the fullest sup port to-the nay President of the Council, who will, of course, be elected. the Tory papers have been making the best they can of Mr. Urqubart's eccentric opposition, but the journalists who are left with no better Tory candidate than the gentle man who talks about Turkey, Sodom and Gomorrah, will surely not find themselves supported by the Barings and the Mastermans of London. All doubts about who shall play the chief parts in the re arranged Ministry are at an end by the authorised announce ment of the Court newsman, who tells us that yesterday, at the Council, " The Duke of Newcastle had an audience of the Queen, and resigned the seals as Secretary of State. "At the Council her Majesty was pleased to declare the Right Hon. Lord John Russell Lord President of her Most Honourable Privy Council, and his Lordship took his place at the Board accordingly. " The Right Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart., Knight Grand Cross of the Bath, having accepted the seals as one of her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, was sworn in. " The Most Noble Henry Duke of Newcastle having ac ' cepted the seals as Fourth Secretary of State, was also sworn in.,, It will be noticed that the words " War Minister" are not used. Before parting with this subject we must say a word or two about the gyrations of a contemporary and Sir George Grey. It took the Times six months to perform the difficult feat of turning its back upon itself in the case of the war between Russia and Turkey. During the same time it gave plenty of employment to its organs of political digestion by swallowing its own words to the very letter. What was difficult, however, in the matter of the war, is comparatively easy in such a matter as a change of Ministerial arrangements. Instead of six months the Times only asks for three days to enable it to contradict itself in the most satisfactory manner. On Friday last the I readers of that paper were told that—" Amongst those mem hers of the Whig party who were unavoidably left out when the present Administration was formed, Sir George Grey is perhaps the most eminent, and although he has no peculiar acquaintance with its duties, we entertain little doubt that the seals of the Colonial-office will be offered to him. With out adding materially to the strength of the Government Sir George Grey is deservedly regarded by men of all parties with respect and esteem, and the House of Commons will view with satisfaction his return to the front row of the Minis terial benches." The addle-headed old gentlemen who fur nish themselves with opinions for the day from the Times committed themselves doubtless on Friday to the assertion that the Colonial-office would be in good hands. " Perhaps the most eminent of all the neglected Whigs"—" a man who was deservedly regarded by men of all parties with respect and esteem"—" one whom the House of Commons would view with satisfaction returning to the front row of the Ministerial benches"—was to be entrusted with the seals of the Colonial-office, and we might thank our stars that so good an appointment was to be expected. While they were thus trumpeting the praises of the supposed Colonial Minis ter they little thought that some changes were mysteri ciusly taking place in the currents which act upon the Times' weather-cock, which would tend very materially to necessitate a great qualification in their previous as sertions. Poor old gentlemen, they must have rubbed their eyes on Saturday, when, with the recollection of the laudation of the expected Ministerial changes tho day before full in their minds, they read captious jo a hnussel criticism of all the appointments—in which Lord .R 11 was sneered at, and ins ch the " perhaps most eminent of the neglected Whigs" spoken of as follo a ws " With more than one member of the or : rnment well qualified to assume the direction of tho Colonial . D . epartment . , that important office has been thrust upon a minister who is understood to have had other objects of ambition, and _who has always been less remarkable .for his adminis " rative abili ties than for the pur it y of his private character. This a, tolerable "let down" for the person " whom the House of Commons would view with satisfaction returning to the f r ont row of the Ministerial benches." What were theirthe bewildeteerredfoorld gentlemen to do on Saturday to retriev political wisdom. The Times, however, had enh‘oltrilono with them yot. On Monday morning the divinity of Friday was smashed at a blow, and Sir George Grey was e ft with not a leg to stand on. " His whole experience of lthe Co l on ies was ga ined under the disastrous Administration of Lord Glenclg, and he is likely to be worked upon by influ ences and directed by counsels which the remote portions of the British empire deem most fatal to their interests and most hostile to their prosperity." Here is a firebrand Colo nial Secretary for you. This is the respected and esteemed of all parties—the man whom the House of Commons would be charmed to sou sitting on the front, row of the Ministerial benches. A pretty House of Commons we must have not to know better how to distinguish chaff from wheat. But not o nly is the choice intrinsically a bad one ; it i s unpleasant in its cousoquences. " His appointment must be regarded as a' slight to all members of the Government holding offices infe rior to that of Secretary of State." The great majority o members of the Government will be . in a state of incipient insurrection. Leaving the old gentlemen to digest their'grievance in the best manner they can, what is the public to think of a paper which takes only three days to enunciate two utterly con tradictory assertions on the same subject—nay, deliberately changes on Saturday the opinion which it held on Friday ? Is it possible to avoid the conclusion that on Friday the general changes, and the appointment of Sir G. Grey in parti cular, were made the subject of moderate praise because there was really nothing objectionable in them, and because no competing interest had expressed its dissatisfaction, while in the interval between Friday and Saturday it was discovered that the claims of certain parties had been neglected whom it was desirable to conciliate I As the public could not be intrusted with 'this secret, the only left was to throw dirty water at fiir Como Grey.
