Office, 80, Fleet-street, London. A special despatch from Nashville, dated Jan.l6, gives the following particulars of the affair on the Cumberland River : " Brigadier-General Forrest, of the rebel army, with a force of about 4,000 men and 12 pieces of light artillery, attacked our relief and store ships coming up the Cumberland River, and succeeded in capturing five steamboats laden with valuable com missary stores, and the gunboat Slidell. Several of the boats contained wounded soldiers, who, in jumping from them while burning, were shot in the water. The negro crews were stripped of their clothing, tied to trees, cowhided, and left to starve on the shore. The boats were all anchored in the mid-channel, and burned after being robbed of their valuables. The officers and soldiers were stripped of their clothing, placed on shore, and paroled. A tremendous rain-storm has set in, and the river has risen over three feet in a few hours. Several bridges on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad have been destroyed by a band of marauders, and mail communication cannot be resumed for some time. The wires between this place and Murfrees boro' have been cut by Secessionists, who pretend to be quiet Union farmers. I have no word from our army to-day, but it'ls ready for therinias: Nineteen deserters from various Tennessee regi ments came into this city to-day. An entire regi ment, numbering about 300, deserted and came into an outpost 15 miles below Murfreesboro' yesterday. Ninety thousand dollars of Confederate State funds were seized from brokers in this city, and confiscated yesterday by order of General Mitchell. General Longstreet will attack us, it is said, next week, with his entire force, which is thought to number 45,000. We shall have stirring times here soon. General Rosecrans is fully prepared for the enemy, but will not move until certain expedi tions effect the destruction of a railroad, and cap ture Forrest and his men, or drive them off. We have nothing but rebel news here, and feel gloomy, but hope for the best." The Washington National Intelligencer of the 17th publishes eight columns of intercepted rebel despatches, being letters of instruction to Mason and Slidell and other rebel agents in Europe. The first is a letter from Secretary Benjamin, dated in September last, exaggerating all the rebel victories, ar d summing up the Federal losses in all the battles up to that time at 350,000 men. The most important portion of the correspondence relates to a movement on the part of the French consuls at Galveston and Richmond, supposed to have origi nated in Paris, to induce Texas to secede from the Southern Confederacy and establish an independent gavernment. The result of this discovery was an order to Magruder to send the consul at Galveston to Mexico as soon as possible, and to order the Richmond consul to leave forthwith. The order, however, with regard to the latter was rescinded. Address of the House of Representatives to the King of Prussia. The address of the House of Representatives to the King of Prussia which was agreed to on Thursday by 255 against 68 votes is as follows : " Most Serene Most Mighty King, Most Gracious King and Lord— _ _ "Your Majesty has again called together both Houses of the Diet of the Monarchy. The House of Representatives have responded to this appeal impressed with the earnest will to prove again their unalterable devotion to the throne and their con scientious care for the maintenance of the consti tution. It is not concealed that they commence their labours under gloomy auguries ; but it is precisely on this account that they the more feel it a duty to lay before your Majesty as publicly as reverentially the situation of the country. " The last session was closed before the budget for the year 1862 prescribed by the constitution was fixed. The estimates for the year 1863, which should have been arranged before the expiry of the preceding year, were withdrawn. The appeals to your Majesty's Government to bring in this account at the proper time were without any result. " Since then the Ministers appointed by your Majesty have carried on the Government indeed, in opposition to the constitution, without having introduced the legal budget, and, in opposition to a declared vote of the House of Representatives, have ordered an outlay which was expressly and definitely refused by a vote of the House. " The chief right of the representatives of the people—that of the approval of the outlay—was thereby attacked—a right which is the basis of constitutional existence, which therefore all exist ing constitutional forms of government guarantee, and which until now was exercised by the Prussian representatives under the fixed recognition of the Government of the State itself. The country saw with alarm the entire advantages of our previous national development placed in peril. It stood by its representatives. " Only a small minority, for a long time estranged from the nation, supported by the Ministers of your Majesty, have borne to the foot of the throne the gravest calumnies against a fraction of the Legislature, and have hesitated to confuse the judgment respecting the measure and signficance of clear constitutional right- " At the same time many abuses of administrative power have appeared, as in the troublous years be fore the commencement of your Majesty's regency. Officials who have been true to the constitution, at the same time such as were deputies, have been visited wiih oppressive measures. The press has been persecuted in cases where it has publicly combated for the right. The attempt has been made to prevent the exercise of undoubted rights of citizenship on the part of not called out Landwehr men, by inadmissible orders of military superiors not justified by the rules of the service. " Most Gracious King and Lord—Your Majesty has been recently pleased to declare that no one need doubt your gracious intention to maintain intact and to protect the constitution to which you had sworn. In fact, no one ventured to hold such a doubt ; but your Majesty will permit it to be said openly that the constitution has been already vio lated by the Ministers. The 99th article is no lon ger a truth. The serious ill of a budgetless Go vernment has fallen on the country ; and a new ses sion has commenced without, by any steps of the Government, merely the prospect being opened that the session may result in restoring the regulated r administration of the finances, and the support of the army establishment again on legal bases. " Foreign nations see with astonishment the pro longation of a conflict which concerns the consider ation for the name of Prussian deeper day by day, and which threatens to deprive the voice of the Goveanrnent council of peoples of its best strength. They know well that duty and conscien tiousness compel the Prussian representatives to preserve the right which the constitution grants them from all attacks, and all injury 011 all s ides, and that the prospect of external perplexity m regain her dis cords. They know that Prussia can la ) er strengh, medium for the adjustment of ourondles ticis influence in Germany, and thereby when she restores c onstitutional order to herself, and when she call s u p on th e German people a n d her representa tives to cc-operate in the nati ona l un ity of the grea t fatherland. peo ple—who have be en proved in so many dangers, b y no other " In the me antime this affliction do es no t d eprive the who in loyalty and end urance are people--of the hope that your Majesty's wisdom will distingui s h th e h onour a ble voice of your leg a l representatives from exceeded Prussian the counsel of those who endeavour, in the strife AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, Jan. 31. The Canadian mail steamer Nova Scotian, Capt. Ballantine, from Portland, Maine, on the evening of the 17th inst., reached this port this morning. The advices by this arrival are virtually the same as those brought by the steamers City of Washington and New York, but by telegraph via Portland we received the following late telegrams NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—The following are the de tails of the inland attack at Galveston, and the gal lant defence made by the 42d Massachusetts Regi ment. They were obtained by the rebel pilot who endeavoured to entrap the steamer Cambria into Galveston, but who was captured by Gen. Sumner, of the Cambria, and brought to New Orleans :—. " On the night before the attack, the Union troops made a reconnaissance, consisting of 25 men, Capt. Shreve, of the RosburghCityGuards,which resulted in the discovery of rebel cavalry in the western part of the city. The news being despatched to the companies, two platoons of 20 men each, corn• mended by Captains Proctor and Savage, were de tailed to the support of Capt. Shreve, who had been erroneously reported as captured. Very soon he and his company were met falling back to the wharf on and by which the United States troops were encamped. At half-past one o'clock the signals of the Harriet Lane warned the devoted 300 of the 42d Massachusetts Regiment to prepare for an assault. Almost instantly she found herself engaged by the rebel batteries, and Colonel Burrill was informed that his pickets were driven in and the enemy approaching in heavy force. Under his direction the men had constructed two barricades of hogsheads, barrels, planks, &c., between the piers and the town, and taking refuge upon the extreme edge of the fOrmer, taking up all but two planks affording access to their position by which the pickets might reach them. They had just completed these arrange ments when the rebels fired at them from a brick market-house a quarter of a mile distant. A few well-directed shuts from the Owasco silenced this market-house, but the street cannon were served steadily, with what effect is evidently un known. The rebel informant admitted that our sol diers behaved with the utmost coolness and intre pidity, holding their perilous position for quite four hours. After the capture of the Harriet Lane, the rebels at once displayed the Union flag, in order to create the impression that she had surrendered vo luntarily, when the fleet followed the example. Col. Russell, in doubt as to the meaning, ordered Adjo tent Charles A. Davis to take a boat and two men, Union refugees, and endeavour to reach the Owasco and ascertain it; also to entreat her, if possible, to come to the end of the pier and save his men. In this perilous adventure the boat was discovered by a boat full of rebels, newly returned from the West field, whither they had been to induce Commodore Renshaw to give an order for the surrender of the flotilla, threatening, in the event of any of the ves sels reopening fire, to butcher every Union soldier on shore. The commander of this boat, in the uni form of a rebel officer, with no leas than three re volvers stuck in his belt, shouted to Davis to stop, inquiring, with an oa th, hi s b us i n ess. Going to the Owasco,' w as the reply, and the swiftly pliedeafter aidofreturned a reaching field - g l a s s, ld . g i to a s the oars soon p u t th e a dj u t an t o ut of danger.

It wa s now a b out S or 9 o 'clock in the morning. on w h oevery approached side eby t ahne them by immenseland crowd of armed and water, nothing was practicable but surrender or death. Col. Burrill adopted the former alternative, and made his men lie down on the floor with him ; hence the rebel cannon shot tore through the upper portion without inflicting injury. The 0 wan() was actually so near to this building that Col. Burrill directed her gunners where to point their pieces, his men cheering vociferously when an effectual shot hurled death into the ranks of the ranks of the enemy. One heroic act during the assault deserves special mention—the removal of the ammunition, comprising powder, shell, shot, and cartridge, from the building on the wharf to the furthest • t point practicable (the outer barricade) in the midst of a perfect feu d'enfer. The men who effected it de serve honourable mention. It must have been done under the direction of Advance Sergeant D. L. Wentworth. A number of the Federal ships had reached New Orleans, and coming over Galveston Bar the fleet met a steamer laden with mules from Sabine Pass. It gave the information that the rebels had driven all the Union boats out of Sabine Bay, and that they had three ocean steamers cut down for gunboats, and one ready to fight." The New York Times correspondent, after de tailing an account of the fight on the deck of the Harriet Lane, says, not the least deplorable fact connected with the disaster is the fact that the signal-book giving the keys to Howe's dco e, naval code, and merchants' code of signals was on board the Harriet Lane, and are doubtless in possession of the rebels. A Washington despatch, speaking of the army of the Potomac, says : " For some days it has been known a movement was again in contemplation, and it might be that the loyal North should not be many days behind the rebels in the knowledge that our veterans are again on the road to Richmond. The same despatch states th a t there is in the Quartermaster's Department condemned clothing to the value of 1,280,000 doll., which was regularly inspected and passed last year by the inspector in Philadelphia, and the contrac tors paid full value. Being unfit for use, it has been turned over to the hospitals." Unless some unexpected cause should interfere, General Butler will be induced to resume command of the department of the South as soon as arrange- of parties, to cover and support their exertions, powerless of themselves, by the exalted name of your Majesty. " Your Majesty, our position as representatives of the country imposes on us the imperative duty solemnly to declare that the internal peace and the external strength of the country can only be re stored by the return to constitutional conditions. "We remain, with the deepest reverence," &c. Naval and Military Intelligence. THE NAVY. Her Majesty's ship Osprey, Commander Innes, having been detained at the buoy off Woolwich arsenal to make good some defects in her tiller, was on Saturday thoroughly inspected. Having re shipped her powder she proceeded to Greenhithe to adjust compasses ; and she will sail for Portsmouth for orders as to her destination. Her Majesty's paddle yacht Victoria and Albert, Capt. G. H. Seymour, C. 8., made an official trial of her machinery on Saturday at Portsmouth, on the completion of engineering repairs, under the super vision of Capt. H. Broadhead, commanding the steam reserve ; Mr. Murdoch, inspector of machinery afloat, and Mr. Ward, assist. engineer to the dock yard and steam factory. Mr. Hilladay represented the makers of the engines, Messrs. J. Penn and Sons. The yacht left the harbour at 8.40 a.m., and first steamed at full speed out to the Nab Light. She returned thence down the West Channel, and etn— barked from Osborne their Royal - Highifesses the Prince of Wales and Prince Louis of Hesse. After this the yacht's course was continued down the West Channel to Yarmouth Roads, when her head was brought round again for Osborne, where the Royal Princes disembarked, and the Victoria and Albert returned to her moorings in Portsmouth harbour. Her machinery worked unexceptionably through out the trial. The weather was exceedingly bois terous. The yacht will fill up with coal to-day, and will leave Portsmouth in the end of the present month to convey to England her Royal Highness the Princess Alexandra of Denmark. The line-of-battle screw steamer Goliah, 81, 400- horse power. recently converted at Chatham from a sailing ship to a screw steamer, and since attached to the Steam Reserve, is to be converted into a troop ship, for which her large tonnage and size render her exceedingly appropriate. An estimate of the cost of converting her is to be forwarded to the Admiralty by the dockyard officials, when, should the proposed outlay not be excessive, she will be taken in hand as soon as the vessels already in progress are completed. The Vigilant, 4, 680 tons, 200 horse power, hav ing made good the defects occasioned by her hav ing been driven on shore on the Gunfieet Sands, got up steam in the great basin on Friday, when her engines were found to work very satisfactorily. She is ordered to be placed in the first division of the Chatham Steam Reserve. The Mars, 81, 400 horse power, Capt. Strange, which recently arrived at the Nore from the Medi terranean, will be taken into dock to-day to be paid off. On being put out of commission the Mars will be placed in the Chatham Steam Reserve. The screw corvette Racoon, 22, 400 horse power, attached to the Chatham Steam Reserve, commis sioned by Captain the Count Victor F. F. E. 9. Gleichen, who has joined that vessel, will be placed in dock to-morrow for the purpose of undergoing the usual survey before being sent to sea. The fol lowing officers had been appointed to the Racoon up to Saturday, and most of them have already joined and taken up their commissions :—Lieuts. H. M. Miller, H. Campbell, and G. R. Trefusis ; Master W. H. Bradley ; Second Master C. AT. M'Conachy ; Master's-Assistants G. A. Broad and W. H. Petley ; Paymaster T. Bradbridge ; Assisi.- Paymaster C. E. James; Assist-Engineer W. I. Parnell; Clerk A. N. C. King; Naval Cadet t e Hon. W. B. Phipps ; Midshipmen J. W. Ramsay, N. Byng, A. Kingscote, and A. P. Pascoe. The following appointments were made on Satin.- day at the Admiralty : Commander Thomas Heard to the Wellesley, additional, for service in the Active ; Commander Edward Field to the Trin comalee, vice Commander Heard; Lieut. J. V. D. Butler to the Buzzard; James Kiddie, master, ad ditional, to the Fisgard for the Royal Oak; and John W. M'J. Hall, master, additional, to the Fis gard for transport duties at Deptford. REPORTED DEATH OF MR. PETHERICK. Travellers (writes an officer of the 2d Life Guards, in the Field of Saturday), sportsmen, naturalists, geographers, all know the name of John Petherick, a kind-hearted, plucky, powerfUlly built specimen of a true John Ball, who both in his private and in his official capacity as her Majesty's Consul at Khartum, White Nile, has rendered much good service and protection to Bri tish interests in this out-of-way and distant region of Upper Egypt. His contributions to the natural history of the rude and savage men, and of , the wild beasts among which they live, are well knbwn through the medium of the book (" Egypt, Soudan, and Central Africa") Mr. Petherick has himself published, and also through the columns of ' the Field. Not many days ago the news appeared, by tele gram, in the London papers, that Mr. Petherick and his wife were drowned in the White Nile. Of course we were all very grieved to hear this, and we anxiously wait further particulars. I have, however, just received a letter from my friend Dr. Genezik, who lived for many years next door to Petherick, at Khartum, and held the appointment of physician and sanitary inspector at this town under the Egyptian Government, and who knows the White Nile and the rude inhabitants of these districts from long practical experience. He writes from Prague, in Bohemia, to me thus :—" I see, from the newspapers, that Petherick, with all his family, wife, and ser vants, have been drowned on the White Nile. I don't believe this version ; he was murdered, with all his party, either by the negroes or by his own people, and the news of his having been drowned spread by them. I know the White Nile, its visi tors, its ivory and ebony borders, better than any body else." Immediately I received)this, I took the liberty of submitting it to Sir Roderick Murchison, President of the Royal Geographical Society, as I had read a report of a meeting of the society, where Petherick's death was officially announced. I have done this in the hope that the circumstances under h w j o b our good friend met his death may be immediately fully inquired into by the authorities. If the poor fellow t m u rde red quietly by d any own lady (to whom he was really d g r e ow va n gs ed b , oi r l i d o s harm . in quiry ; but if he, with his good and d ck was th among whom he was tra il the reader will look at Petherick's of the sava ge have power over them, to striet ean book he will see what style of come account fine ; o b f and ra tthe e e th savages they are—it knockedonly because on the h p e e a t d h a e and accept for the truth is not i v s e 01 tra velling—and n r the news of I h • been drowned, Ewing was married just before he badeus farewell) was murderers, or those who fel low we all knew him to be, but 9 because he was the emissary of the British Government, as consul at Khartum, as well as the commander of an expedi tion to render a • ssistance to Captains .

The same letter albo states that the Alabama captured two American whalers, which she burnt, and afterwards landed the crews at one of the West India islands. Should this statement proved correct, we may no doubt look for details by the Cunard steamer Africa. On Saturday evening Dr. La. for Central Middlesex, held an Middlesex Hospital touching the des, Smith, alias Gibson, one of the ballet girls, who was removed in flames from the stage of 'the Priti cess's Theatre on the night of Friday week during the performance of the pantomime. The crowded state of the large apartment in which the,inquest • was held testified to the painful excitement caused by this melancholy occurrence. Sarah Gibson, mother of the deceased, was the ! first witness. She stated that her daughter was 17 , years of age at the time of her death. She was an extra ballet girl, and had been engaged at the Princess's for the whole time of the pantomime. Witness saw her in the hospital on last Saturday week, the day after the accident. She did not tell her how it had occurred, but she said she had been very much burnt, and that if there had been rugs' in the theatre she could have been saved. Witness had heard from another young woman that the . man who was managing the blue lights had turned " the tin" wrong. The deceased went by the name of Smith, her (the witness's) maiden name, at the" Princess's. -~ " _ Mr. Edward Morgan, house-surgeon of the hos pital, stated that the deceased was admitted on the She had extensive burns night of Friday week. on the face, forehead, neck, temples, arms, chest, and thighs. A third of the whole surface of her body was burnt. She never rallied, and she died on Wednesday last at a quarter before 6 in the even ing. Exhaustion caused by the burns was the cause of death. Most of the internal viscera was congested, but there was no internal inflammation. Mr. William Harris, " supermaster " of the Princess's Theatre, stated that he engaged the extra ballet girls. He was on the the night of the accident. It happened on the prompt side of the ; that was the side to the left of the audience s _ He was standmi on the 0.P.0r opicariiiiik. He saw Mrs. Hunt on the prompt side in flames. She ran to the first entrance for assistance, and passed Miss White on the way without setting fire to her. She then met miss Smith, and set her on fire. Mr. Roxby, the stage manager, ran after Mrs. Hunt, threw his inverness cape over her, and put the fire out. He and several of the men who were perform ing in the pantomime run to Miss Smith, and en deavoured to extinguish the flames that enveloped her. She would not attend to ther calls but ran about in her fright. The outside skirt worn by the extra ballet girl was supplied by the mana ger. The young women themselves supplied the inside skirts. Miss Smith was very par ticular about her appearance, and wore more skirts than were usually worn by extra ballet girls. It was the outside skirt, the one supplied by the management, that took fire on this occasion. Ho believed that it and the others worn in the theatre had been dipped in a chemical preparation to make them uninfiammable, and that the effects of this had worn away. He did not, however, know this as a fact. The girls were to have a change of outside skirts in a few days after the accident occurred. The two outside skirts were not washed. The girls themselves had the inner skirts washed. ' -~_ By the Jury—There were arrangements in the theatre for putting out fires, but he was not aware that on the evening of the accident there were any particular arrangements for preventing the dresses of ballet girls taking fire. They were cautioned to be careful. The jury found a verdict of " Accidental death." Appended to the verdict was this resolution : "The jury wish to express their opinion that sufficient precautions were not taken at the Prin cess's Theatre to extinguish any accidental catching tire of the clothes of the corps de ballet. They strongly urge the necessity of rendering articles of linen clothing fire-proof by manufacturers and laundresses." ROYAL INSTITUTION. The usual meeting of the members of the Royal Institu tion, on Friday evening, was crowded to overflowing to hear a lebture by Cardinal Wiseman, " On the points of contact between science and art." He commenced by re lating an anecdote of Hannibal, who, when an exile in a foreign country, had attended a lecture, and on being asked what he thought of it, replied, " That he .had heard many old dotards in the course of his life, but the greatest dotard of all was the man who had ventured to deliver a lecture on war in the presence of Hannibal." He feared a similar opinion would be entertained of him for venturing to lecture on science and art in the pre sence of some of the most eminent men of science and of some of the most distinguished living artists. Cardinal Wiseman considered the subject in its relations separately to painting, sculpture, and architecture, each of which de partments of art, he said, is intimately connected with the progress of science. The first representative man in whoni science and art were combined in the greatest perfection was Leonardo da Vinci ; for, though little is generally known of that great artist's scientific acquirements, ho wrote thirteen folio volumes on matters relating to science, and he had brought that knowledge to bear in executing his works of art. The man of modern times who had done most to connect science with art was the late Prince Consort, whom Cardinal Wiseman eulogised in high terms, and mentioned the many successful endeavours which had been made by the lamented Prince to promote science in connection with art. The relation of painting to science was, he observed, shown by the rules of perspec tive, which are founded essentially on scientific principles ; and the absence of the knowledge of perspective by the ancients was exemplified by the Assyrian marbles, on which the most absurd placing of objects in wrong places is shown. Though some great painters, by close observation of nature, succeeded in representing the objects of different distances correctly, yet there were ne rules of perspective established until so recently as the middle of the last cen tury. Art came to the aid of science in giving atmospheric effect by diminishing the brilliancy of the colouring of distant objects, but the preparation of the colours de pended in a great degree on the application of science ; and thus, i n the production of a perfect painting, science and art are combined. Even the feeling for natural beauty, which is more strongly experienced by the people of this country than of any other, and which develops itself on the admiration of landscape painting, may be said to be in a great degree attributable to the applications of science, by which locomotion has been so greatly facilitated that all can be transported readily to scenes of natural beauty. Cardinal Wiseman related two anecdotes to illus trate the natural appreciation of good works of art; one of them relating to sculpture, the other to painting. A York shireasked horsedealer, on looking at a marble group of a cha cc'reufenrte7mincerto ex claimed, cha rioteer driving two horses, closely examined all the points of the animals, and then patting one on anim the a n i ec a k s , s th ai a d i " w T i h th is is a splendid animal ; but I don't think much of tether," the other having been a restoration. The second instance oc curred at the Manchester Exhibition.

The wa s enabled to ascertain the external forms and workings of the muscles, which in the early ages was chiefly known by keen ' observation of the action of the muscles of gladia tors in their fatal conflicts ; and the Cardinal took occasion science was t language such a combat in the pre sence of thousands of spectators, and noticed the vast im provement in the state of society by which such horrible sights were abolished, and the sculptor obtained a know ledge of his art by the pursuits of science, instead of by witnessing such barbarities. The relation between archi tecture and science is so intimate that the operations of the architect are entirely founded on a knowledge of the prin ciples of mathematics. To illustrate the importance of the application of science to architecture, Cardinal Wiseman ex plained, in considerable detail, the manner in which the dome of St. Peter's at Rome had been repaired when in danger of falling. The lecture was not concluded till nearly eleven o'clock—one hour longer than usual. The Cardinal, indeed, I does not appear to possess the art of condensation, for the lecture might have been brought within the hour, and the in terest in it would have been well maintained, but towards the close many of the audience became wearied, and retired.
