He urged instant action the sirnple ground of duty, for great Powers were jealous cf each other, and delays were danger ons, The French treaty &c.,bad done much, but he almost despaired of seeing the two countries unite. I Moreover, if England led the way, France and Austria would be sure to follow. France had in her proposal left it to England to name the means and their amount, and he thuught that the English Go- Verisreent had neglected a most favourable oppor tunity. He repeated, let England move first, and _she wr s sure to have France with her. The French people bad said, " our governor will not make US go to Poland we will make him . ge." (hear.) Eng land was in these moral matters mistress of the world, and if she moved other nations would follow, mid the result would be the salvation of his coun try. (Ilear.) The posi:ion of Galicia and her Geo graphical necessities wouid compel AnatriA to join with France and England. Austria could do no - more than look left std right and keep sacc. Stn could not fight three Power 6. There were also Sweden, Turkey, aid Circassia burning t o b e avenged on Russia. The freedom of the Black Sea was guaranteed by the Po wers of Europe, hut Russia had blockaded the coasts of Circassia. If England, Vranee, Austria, Sweden, and Turkey all united"— not for war with Russia, but for unity in speech 1. the freedom of Poland would be secured. The Cir ' cassians were a noble people, and had defended their independence for 80 years against the mighty power of Russia—mighty it was, but it was mighty no more, thank God. (Cheers.) The Circassians bad lately received an offer from Russia, but they scornfully rejected it, having no faith in her pro mises. He therefore hoped that in raising funds to aid Poland, Ciro:maid, would not be forgotten, for she was their sister nation', (Hear.) He concluded by calling upon them to press the English Government to give a verdict against Russia, both in justice to Poland, and that England might thus be enabled to redeem the fault she had committed. (Cheers.) An addition was made to the resolution of the words " recognise the belligerent rights of Poland," and it then passed unanimously. On the motion of Alderman GOADSBY, seconded by Mr. H. COOPER, a resolution was passed, calling upon the meeting to give effect to the preceding re solution. The following memorial was then adopted: "To THE HONOURABLE THE COMMONS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND LN PAR LIAMENT ASSEMBLED. rrtION, STAMPEb done ? All that the British nation eoeld do was to strengthen the hands of the Government, atid that could be done efficiently. The public opinion of Europe had pronounced on the question ; in France all parties were united in Austria there was the same devotion to the cause of Poland; and if Eng land, France, and Austria were united, TY guld Rus sia be able to oppose them with success ? (Oaten.) The petitions from the French people had produced a most remarkable debate in their Smates Prince Napoleon had spoken in favour of the Pules, and boldly counselled war. He (Mr. Hennessy) thought there a'ao another ellernative. T. C senator who officially represented the F ench Emperor raid that the policy of former Governments with reference to Poland was a policy of many words alidlittle ection, and that that would not be the •policy of Nepoleon 111. (Cheers.) The same Minister-spoke of the continge'cy of a European congress.. That serious word congress would hardly have been mentioned unless the senator knew the Emperor would make that proposal to the other. powers of Europe.. He (Mr. Hennessy) believed it would be-made, and that was the alternative. .If England, France, Austria, Spain, Italy, Sweden, and all the parties to the Treaty of Vienna (and he would include some who were not, because this was a European question) met in congress and pronounced what was the pub lic opinion of the world, Russia must yield. It was as a friend of peace that he counselled our Govern ment to unite with France and Austria on this oc casion. He did not complain of Lord Palmerston for telling him in the House of Commons that he did not think the time was yet come for stating there what was the policy of England. In one respect that was an advantage, because the people were enabled to express their opinions without any party feeling as to what the conduct of the Government ought to be. The debates in the French Chambers led to the belief that the French Government had asked ours for joint action with Austria. He was strongly in favour of that joint action. (Cheers.) He believed that any other action would be a total failure. All that Russia wanted now was to divide the Powers of Europe. Any shuffling, un meaning, isolated policy would be most dangerous to the peace of Europe, for he felt convinced, if we allowed France to go unaided into the negotiations, war was certain. The people would not allow the Emperor to draw back; he was himself said to be anxious to get rid of a disagreeable undertaking the other side of the Atlantic, and now for the first time he found the whole of France united. War was in evitable, unless Russia knew she was opposed by a too powerful force. He could not believe that Lord Palmerston would refuse this joint action, and this was really all that we could do. Upon the nation devolved the responsibility of strengthening the hands of the Government in that course. He had never counselled any other action for England than diplomatic action in concert with the other Powers, but diplomatic action would be idle if we went out of our way to say that under no circumstances war would arise. He offered no opinion on that con tingency. It was our duty to leave to the Govern ment the mode of action ; let us express our opi nions. (The hon. • member sat down amid great applause.) The resolution was passed unanimously. The Rev. Mr. STREET moved, and Mr. BISHOP seconded—" That it is the duty of every English man to labour to obtain the cessation of all diplo matic intercourse with Russia until such a state of things (the state of things indicated in the first re solution) is put an end to." The MAYOR, in calling upon Count Zamoyski to support the resolution, saidhe.Would introduce him not as an nxile, but as n Englis'pman, jhq Count having been presented with the freedom at the city of Edinburgh. (Cheers.) Count ZAMOYSKI, on rising, was warmly cheered. He was glad to have the opportunity of expressing his belief that Gen. Langiewicz had not retreated from the field because ho had shrank from the extremity of his duty, but in an endeavour to repeat his former manoeuvre of suddenly re appearing at another point. This had been frustrated by some Austrian official perplexed by contradictory orders. He (Count Z imoyski) as a Pole, declared that he would rather see his coun try submit 20 years longer to Russian rule than be assisted by foreign military force. (Cheers.) His strong conviction was that his country was nume rous, powerful, honest, devoted, and, he would say, virtuous enough to gain the victory by her own strength, humanly speaking. (Hear, hear.) Poland would triumph over Russia either now or hereafter. (Cheers.) After 30 years of silence like death, she now showed more life than ever before. In the jus tice of her cause, Poland was certain to triumph over her enemies. What had she done in 1831 ? With 40,000 men they fought several battles, and gained complete victories over the enemy, securing 20,000 prisoners, while the allied armies never had 3,000 prisoners. The reason was that one-fourth of the Russian soldiers were Poles. (Hear, hear.) He com plained that after their success in 1831, they re ceived no word of encouragement from the Govern ments of Europe. (Hear, hear.) Tnis statement, when made by Mr. Hennessy, startled the house, and it was hardly understood, but it was what he (the speaker) had been saying to the British Minis ters for years; and they were not very courteous in saying that they could not send ships to Warsaw. He answered no, he did not expect that, for he was not mad; but if they were to send to the Polish National Government a messenger of the Foreign office in his official dress, with an official despatch, saying that we acknowledged them, this would be worth more to the Poles than a hundred thousand bayonets. (Cheers.) The resolution asserted that Russia had forfeited all claim on the dominion of Poland. (Hear.) This sentence implied the recog nition of such rights as the Poles could establish by their own efforts, and such a security would be the foundation of certainty for the resurrection of Poland. However much he might applaud the cessation of diplomatic intercourse with Russia, it would not be nearly so effective as the proposed recognition ; the former would be a satisfaction to England by washing our hands of the offender, bat it implied no consequences —it was not open ing diplomatic relations with Poland. He hoped this recognition of rights would be in sisted on by the meeting, and that every English man would feel it a point of honour that there should be a cessation of intercourse with Russia. (Hear.) He entreated the people of England to press upon the Government that it ought to withdraw the sanction it gave in 1815 to the domination over Poland. He proceeded to show what would be the effect of this on the other nations of Europe. France had proposed joint action. What for? To pass a verdict in the trial of " Russia v. Poland." That verdict must be that the sanction to this wrong hitherto granted must be withdrawn. Russia must be treated as the felon had been who was presented at the late levee, and whom the Duke of Wellington would kick out of doors if he again showed his face. (Hear.) The speaker contended that there WAS no ! advantege in concerted action, but there would be the certain evil of delay. Why wait for concert in doing our duty ? The partition of Poland was ac knowledged to be " the crime of the age ;" there was not a man in Russia who did not acknowledge that it was a crime ; and it was hardly less a crime in those who remained the passive witnesses. (Cheers.) Prince Talleyrand admitted that the partition of Poland was the prelude to the many subsequent crimes, and partly their excuse ; the crimes of the kings led to the crimes of a maddened people in France, and to many revolutions. This participa tion by England remained a crime so long as it was not atoned for and restitution made. If Poland were dead there would hardly be a means of atone ment, or of freeing the national conscience. The religious people of England admitted that crime was ge nerally punished in this world. He ed life for his country in order punished, thereforec c laim ed and m that England might be enabled to free herself from f‘ The humble petition of the undersigned sheweth,—That the Poles, after having long exhibited, tinder circumstances of the most cruel provocation, a calm and dignified demea nour in the firm but peaceable vindication of their rights', which entitled them to the respect and admiration of all civilised nations, have been forced into their present insur rection by acts of continued and intolerable oppression and insult on the part of Russia, and by the absolute necessity of taking up arms in self-defence, and in order to preserve their national existence from being exterminated, and their own lives barbarously sacrified in the forced and ignomi nious service of their oppressor. That for the last century it has been the constant aim of the Russian Government to denationalise the people of Poland, to degrade her nobility, and to efface the remembrance of her former greatness and freedom, and this nefarious .policy hag been pursued by means of constant confiscations, exiles, and massacres, wholly without a parallel in the history of any other country, Mahommedan or Christian. That the anarchy which this system has naturally produced in. Poland is dangerous as well as disgraceful to the civilised States of Europe and an insult to the majesty of interna tional law, on a gross violation of which the dominion of Russia in Poland was founded. That the Prussian Govern ment is bound by the Treaty of Vienna to cherish and pro tect the nationality of Poland, and that by permitting Rus sian troops to pursue Polish insurgents on her territory, and by giving them up to the Russian Government, she has not only become an accessory after the fact to its tyrannical and atrocious proscription, but has released the other contracting Powers to the Treaty of Vienna from the stipulations con tained in that treaty in her own favour, and that the Prus sian people, if they acquiesce in this base - and disgraceful conduct of their Government, will be considered by the ; rest of Europe as occupying the last instead of the first place, among the people of Uermany. That England, in. order to purchase the adhesion of Russia to the 14 first articles in the Treoty of Vienna in favour of Poland, agreed to pay till Russian Government the sum of 17,000,000 sterling— a payment which was spread over the space of a century, with the express view of rendering it the interest of Russia continually to observe the treaty; that the treaty hiving been, as staled by the Prime Miniater of England in his place in Parliament, systematically violated by Russia, to continue the paym py longer is simply to render tribute to Russia ; and thi 1, foi e, it affects as well the honour as the interests of Engltp.l to put an end at once to our present relations with that ef,tattly. We, therefore, entreat your honourable house will be pleased to present a humble ad dress to her Majesty, p ray i ng h er to take, e i ther alone or in n her n E ct u i r o o n p w ea i n thpowsuch allythe Emperormeasures of as s the h eFrench may wisdom think most suitable for securing the nati ona l an d political rights of the Poles, and thereby establishing th e conjunction peace and welfare of Eastern Europe. And your petitioners will ever pray." The meeting closed with thanks to the Mayor, on the motion of Mr. Hennessy, seconded by Mr. N. F. Zaba, sb Pole. HEALTH OF LONDON. (From the Realitrar general's Report.) The mortality in London was high in the second week of the current month ; it rose still higher in the third week (that ended last Saturday) when the deaths numbered 1,624. The average number of deaths in the weeka of ten years 1853-62, corres ponding with last week is, with a correction for increasing population, 1,416. The public health has been so unfavourably affected, that the deaths were more numerous by 208 than they would have been if the average rate of mortality had ruled. In the last three weeks the deaths were successively 1,370, 1,561, and 1,624. The mean temperature of the air in the same periods was 47.3 deg., 381 deg., and 41.0 deg. The return of the previous week exhibited an in crease in the deaths of young persons (under 20 years), and also of the old (60 years and upwards). The return of last week shows no further increase in the deaths of the young, but a further increase of considerable amount in the deaths of the old. In the last three weeks the deaths of young persons were 702, 806, 793; those of the old were 275, 305, and 351. The increase has arisen chiefly from pulmonary complaints. The deaths at all ages from phthisis were in the three weeks 149, 191, and 180 ; those from bronchitis 141, 170, 204 ; those from pneumonia 88, 114, 102 ; those from heart disease 56, 50, and 72. The deaths from pulmonary complaints last week were 366, against a corrected average of 315. There were 45 deaths from smallpox. Seven nonagenarians died in the week, the oldest of whom was a widow, aged 97 years. Six women are returned as having died on the 10th inst.—four at Ludgate-hilt and two at the Poultry—from suffocation in the crowds attracted to witness the illumination, or from heart disease accelerated by the great pressure and excitement on that occasion. A woman died on the 13th inst. from disease of the heart accelerated by the pressure in a crowd on the 7th inst. Last week the births of 1,129 boys and 1,102 girls, lin all 2,231 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years ,853.62 the average number (corrected) was 1,980. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29•7741 n. The reading fell to 29 . 08 in on Sunday; it rose to 30.06 in on 'fuesday ; and after various flaetuations was 3 n'o7in r t the end of the week. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 41 'deg, which is 0.8 deg below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). Th e mean daily temperas ore was below the average till Frid:.y. The night tempera t ore was t vvice—viz,, on Wednesday and Thursday—helow the fr(ezing paint of water; the lowest was 28.1 deg on the former day. The highest day tunnerature was 57 9 deg 01) Friday. The range of temperature in the week was ti,erejere 29 - 8 deg. The mean daily range was 15 . 4 deg. The mean of the highest temperatures of the Thames was 45.7 deg ; the mean of the lowest was 42 - 7. The difference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 6 . 9 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 77, compete saturation being represented by 100. The prevailing direction of ihe wind was north east. The amount of rain, was o•23in, almost all of which fell on Sunday. /e TIIE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 25, 1863. THE MUTINY AT 33LACKWALL. Last evening Mr. J. Humphreys, the Middlesex coroner, resumed the inquiry regarding the deaths of the men killed in the affray between the marines and seamen of the Peruvian corvette Arica. Midshipman Juan Iladoy said there were about 14 midshipmen on board the Venus hulk. On the night of Thursday I was about to be attacked by some men. At the time of the mutiny I was on the main deck. It was about 2 o'clock. When I tried to come up on to the upper deck two of the mutineers attacked me. Callejis got between me and the men who were attacking me, and said that they should kill him before they killed me. The MOD who at tacked me was Corporal Messa and the soldier Oliva. Another soldier, Alcoras, and Perez, were close by at the time, but Perez took my part. Ido not know who bayoneted Callt-jas. Antonio Perez, the soldier on board :he Arica, said—l was one of those playing at cards. The cause of the disturbance was the officer in charge coming and stopping us. The second officer in com mand had given us leave to play till 10 o'clock. The man who drew the first bayonet was Corporal Messa. I was present when Iladoy was attacked, and I took his part. Corporal Messa and another whose name' Ido not know attacked Iladoy. Callejas wished to take Itadoy's part. I did not strike Callejas. I could not see who did it. Coroner—Callejas did not stab himself, and you say you did not do it. Must it not have been of necessity one of the other two men, Oliva or Mesas, who stabbed him P Witness—l did not see them do it. Jose Bergas (called Vargus)—l am first sergeant of the 34th troop. Thursday was my Saint's day. I did not go on shore that day. I had only one gallon bottle of rum. Olive was not given into my custody. I was aroused by a great note, and I then went to the spot whence it proceeded, and found the men up and armed. Before I got there the soldiers had possessed themselves of the arms from the armoury. 1 was not tipsy. I was sober. Coroner—Did you try to keep the mutineers down ? Witness—Yes, I tried to keep them quiet. I was not allowed to come on deck, The soldiers pre vented me. I was armed, but that was because I was on duty. I did not hear Santiago tell the men to go to bed, because Olive was keeping me confined below. Jose Messa, sworn, said—l am a drummer and corporal on board. I was not playing at cards on Thursday evening. I was on board all day. I first heard the disturbance after I went to bed. Ser geant Gurra called me up between 11 and 12 o'clock the same night. Callejas carried Iladoy away. It was on the main deck. There were only four per sons there besides Iladoy. I heard Callejas say, " You must kill me before you kill the officer." The sergeant ordered me to attack Iladoy with a view to frighten him. I did not intend to carry the order out. Coroner—When Callejas placed himself between you and Iladoy did you see who bayoneted Callejas? Witness—lt was Oliva. Ho stabbed him with his bayonet. . _ Oliva was here brought into the room by direc tion of the coroner, and he was identified by Messa as the same man who bayoneted Callejas. The Coroner informed him that he had been identified as the person who had stabbed Callejas, and, after the usual caution, which was communi cated to him by an interpreter, he asked him whether he had anything to say_ • Oliva said, "I never killed Callejas." The Coroner said that where a revolt took place on board ship the officer in charge was justified in using proper and reasonable force towards suppress ing it, and if death ensued to any of the persons who so revolted and resisted i•_ would be justifiable homicide. That view of the law applied to the cases of Garcia and Vasquez; they were engaged in an unlawful act, and in endeavouring to resist the pro perly constituted officers they lost their lives. But in the case of the soldier Callejas the law was different. Seeing that the life of the midshipman, Iladay, was threatened, he apparently from kindness of heart placed himself before the youth, and said that they should kill him before they killed the officer. It was then sworn that Oliva made a thrust at the deceased and inflicted the injury which had resulted in his death. The learned Coroner then pointed out the difference between wilful murder and man slaughter, and left it to the jury to say which of those offences they would charge against the pri soner. The jury, after being in consultation some time, returned a verdict of Manslaughter against Emanuel Oliva in the cave of the death of Callejas ; and of Justifiable homicide in those of Garcia and Vasquez. Oliva was then committed to Newgate. The Question of Subsistence in the Southern States. (From the Charleston Courier, Feb. 28.) The scarcity of food, which in another year is not likely to become most serious, is not owing to the incapacity of the South to subsist itself ; for it is a fact that, in those very regions of the Confederacy which have heretofore been chiefly grain-growing the scarcity is greatest. It is owing to two facts, says the Richmond Examiner—first, that the armies of the Confederacy are continually recruited from the farming class, instead of preserving in the ranks the men already enlisted ; and second, that these armies, operating as they have been chiefly in the grain -producing portions of the country, have by wholesale impressments, in many cases wanton, unnecessary, and with needless rudeness and tyranny, discouraged the farmers from puttiz.g in further crops. On the latter branch of the subject it is unnecessary to remark. Congress is maturing a bill which promises to meet the evil, if faithfully executed, and to restore large wastes of fertile land to cultivation. History is full of admonition against robbing industry of its hard-earned fruits. Nothing so rapidly overspeads a country with the evidences of dilapidation and decay as these wholesale rob• beries of, the farmer, by insolent minions of govern ment. " Let every man, woman, and child at home," says our cotemporary of the Mobiie Register, " with a yard square of ground scratch it and put in corn. Every grain carefully intrusted to the fruitful earth, is a mite of contribution to the nation's liberty. Every acrd of cotton planted is a comfort to our enemies, and a nail in the coffin of Confederate independence." The Chattanooga _Rebel says—" We cannot too strongly urge upon our friends the propriety of planting no more cotton than is necessary to raise seed for another year. We repeat what we said on a former occasion—' Let every effort be made in every state to secure the greatest amount of food. Let the people go to work now to make clothing. Do not put these things off. Let those learn to spin and weave now who never knew before. The highest compliment that can be paid any young lady, after this war, will be that she span and wove clothes for her brothers and friends in the army. Let the wealthiest and most accomplished set the example of plain dressing and hard work." THE ALABAMA.—The following letter has been received from a Rochdale youth, now serving on board the Alabama :—" Confederate screw steamer Alabama, havetaken Februar a y bo 2 v s e . , and Dear likeC n— lam w n e o l w l. in v h e e vesselmen tionedouhseir pretty about.3s vessels, including the California steamer, bound from New York for Aspinwall.

Rear-Admiral-Horatio T. Austin, C. 8., will, we understand, succeed Rear-Admiral H. J. Codrington, C. 8., as Admiral Superintendent at Malta, when the latter officer's period of service expires in July next. Her Majesty's steam vessel Kite, Master Com• mander Bowden, was paid off on Saturday at Wool wich. The Kite arrived in England on the 1 lth inst., with machinery disabled. The boilers had given way six times during the voyage home, and the entire, structure of the vessel was rotten and leaky to such au extent that officers and men de spaired of making the shore in safety. She left Bermuda on the 30th of January, in tow of the Spitfire, and on clearing the reef made sail and got up steam. Forty minutes afterwards it was found that both boilers had given way, and that the sudden rush of water from them rendered it necessary to draw the fires. Three of the stokers were scalded, one very severely. On Feb. Ist, the engineers having made good the defects, steam was got up a second time, working on the second grade. On the 3d the port boiler gave way, and the fires were again drawn. On the sth a heavy gale set in from N.N.E. to E.N.E., and the ship making much water, the pumps were constantly going. Up to this time the vessel encountered northerly, north-west and south-westerly winds, and made from three to four knots with the wind favourable, and six in a heavy gale, running under close reefed topsail and reefed forecourse. On the llth,l2th,l3th,and 14th, there were heavy gales S.W. to N.W., and back to SW., with high seas, the wind constantly shifting. On the latter date the ship was in lat. 35 3, long. 43 W., distant 715 miles from the Azores, having only made 1,015 miles in 15 days. On Feb. 16th, for the third time, she commenced steaming with both boilers at very low pressure. In 11b. 30m. after starting it became necessary to draw the fires on account of the port boiler giving way. On the 19th there was a heavy gale from W.S.W. to N.W. and on the 20th strong winds from N.W. The vessel ran 72 miles in 24 hours. On the 22d, at 10,45 p.m., fires were lighted under both boilers, but it took two hours to get steam up. At 215 p.m. on the 24th both boilers again gave way, the ship then being near the south side of Pico(one of the Azores) and the fires were again drawn _ There was a heavy swell setting on the land, and the ship was be calmed and unmanageable. At midnight, after 12 hours' calm, a light air sprung up from S.E., and the vessel had to retrace her course and stand for the N.W. end of Fayal. She finally lost sight of those islands on the morning of Feb. 26th, and on the 28th encountered heavy N.W. winds, which continued With variations over many days. On sth March there was a N.W. to S.W. gale, and she again got up steam; in five minutes the starboard boiler gave way, and the fires were aga i n port6th and boiler 7th being there of no use were heavy drawn,alone. O gales and. stormy winds and squalls f rom W . S . W . to with heavy hailstorms. Th e Li zar d n the was distant 209 miles. On the Bth she got up steam in her boiler, and proceeded on the third grade ; the same evening the Bishop's light (Scilly Islands) was sighted, and the land was made in ten days from the time of leaving Garciosa, the north-eastern island of the Azores. On the afternoon of the 10th inst. she bore up for Portland Roads, the weather being very stormy. She arrived at Spithead at 11 p.m. on the 11th, and fell in with the Medusa steamer off the North Foreland, and was taken in tow off the Nore. She then broke down for the sixth time. She expended 75 tons of coals during a most periloas voyage, the pumps going every watch, as she frequently shipped large quantities of water ; the bedding and clothes were saturated from leaks in the seams. From injuries by the escape of boiling water, the effective number of the crew was much reduced, and when under steam the watch were obliged to take their turn in stock ing. It was remarked on her arrival at Woolwich that not a sail, spar, or even rope yarn had been lost, although the ship was obliged to be driven or carried through the water with each mast and rig ging supported with extra gear. The mainmast, which was made in 1857, is rotten. The Kite was first employed at Bermuda, in 1838, and left Eng land for the last time in 1856. Her boilers were condemned at Bermuda last year. Scarlet fever has appeared among the boys on board the training ships Impregnable, 78, Com mander F. S. Tremlett, and the Implacable, 24, Commander Samuel B. Dolling, in Hamoaze, Devonport. There are about 22 cases on board the Implacable. Her compliment of boys is 400, but she has at present 450; of these 225 have been sent to a sanitary hulk. Tha Bermuda Royal Gazette of the 3d inst. states that the determination of the Government to con tinue Admiral Alexander Milne one year longer as chief of the North American and West India station has given great satisfaction in all tha places under his command. The screw steam frigate Galatea, Capt. R. Maguire, from Nassau, arrived in Grassy Bay on the 28th of February. The screw steam sloop Rinaldo, 17, Commander J. A. R. Dunlop, continued at Ports Island; and the Nimble, 5, Lieut. D'Arcy, in Grassy Bay, The French steamship of war, Albatross, Capt. Maudet, from Mexico, which has been repaired in the Royal Arsenal at Bermuda, sailed on the 26th of February for Brest. This ship and the Vauban landed several military and naval invalids, who were sent to the Royal Naval Hospi tal. Many of these cases were hopeless; five have died, and were buried in the French cemetery at Ports Island. The most assiduous attention has been paid to all these invalids by Deputy-Inspector Smart and Dr. Dornville, R.N. The French Government transport Ferriere, Capt. Pichot, with military stores from Havre for Mexico, was off Plymouth ou Monday. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Commander the Hon. E. G. L.

The 32d Regiment, quartered in the R Tian bar racks, Devoaport, will leave on the 4;11 of April for Dublin. The 78th will succeed the 32d at Devon port. The 73d Regiment, in Plymouth citadel, is expected to leave in two divisions on the 22d and 27th for Aldershot, and will be replaced by the 21 or Queen's Own Regiment from that encampment. Detachments of the brigade of Guards, numbering about 350 men and 15 officers, have arrived at the camp at Aldershot to undergo a coarse of musketry instruction. The detachments consist of 64 men of the Ist battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, 34 of the Ist battalion and 67 of the 2d battalion Coldstream Guards, 87 of the 2d battalion and 98 of the 3d bat talion Grenadier Guards—the whole under the corn mend of Lieut.-Col, A.

The officers and men of the division at Aldershot having returned from leave and furlough, an annual spring drill has cornmenced. THE POLISH INSURRECTION. MEETING AT MANCHESTER. Yesterday a meeting of the citizens of Manchester, convened by the Mayor, in accordance with a re quisition, was held in the Town-hall with a view to a, manifestation of sympathy with the Poles in their present struggle for freedom. There were on the platform General Count Ladislas Zamoyski, Mr. Hennessy, MT., Mr. N. Z tba, Dr. Gottheil, Dr. Watts, &c. ; and the large room of the building was well filled. The Town Clerk stated that letters had been re ceived from Mr. Bazley, M.P., Mr. J. A. Turner, M.P., and Mr. George Wilson, regretting that other engagements would prevent them from being pre sent. Mr. Bazley wrote that he should be glad to serve on any committee that might be formed, or to be useful in any degree to promote the freedom of the Poles. In Mr. Wilson's letter he said his sen timents with regard to Poland had long been known, as he had the good fortune to be acquainted with the late Lord Dudley Stuart. (Applause.) The Mayor of MANCHESTER having taken the chair and opened the proceedings, Mr. W. R. CALLENDER, jun., moved, and the Rev. Canon TOOLE (Roman Catholic) seconded the following resolution : ,4 That Russia, by the violation of her engage ments to Europe on behalf of Poland, and by the system of confiscation, exile, and massacre which she has substituted in their place, has forfeited all right to the possession of Poland, and by the condi tion of normal discontent which she has thus created in the breasts of an oppressed and gallant people exposes the peace of Europe to constant danger, which it is the interest of all to avert." Mr. HENNESSY, M.P., on rising to support the resolution was loudly cheered. He said the citizens of Lqndon had been assembled by the Lord Mayor, and the chief magistrate of Man Chester had convened the citizens of the metropolis of the commerce of the world for the common ob ject of expressing their sentiments on the cause of Poland, more especially because this was, as he had always maintained, an English question. (Hear, hear.) Poland was tied to England by obligations which England was bound to see ful filled. He agreed entirely in the declaration that Russia had no longer any rights in Poland. Russian rights, or, rather, Russia's claims to rights (hear), assumed the semblance of legality in the year 1815. Lord Castlereagh, representing England at the Congress of Vienna, failed in his endeavour to ob tain the independence of Poland, but he obtained that which he himself and the English Parliament and Government then thought was almost as good— its national existence unde r the treaty. Lord Pal merston, the highest authority in this country, not only in official rank, but in everything connected with the interpretation of treaties, had told us that that treaty was violated by Russia almost as soon as concluded, and within the last few weeks he had told us in the House of Commons that this violation by Russia was systematic. His lordship added that no treaty in the history of the world had been so deliberately violated. (" Shame !") Whatever rights, then, Russia had under that treaty were gone. (Applause.) It was to be hoped that Euro pean statesmen would no longer look upon it as a question of treaties, but as a question of the com plete independence and restoration of the Kingdom of Poland. (Prolonged app►ause.) In the year 1861 events took place quite as black, tyrannical, and oppressive as the recent atrocities there com mitted. Poland was then put practically in a state of siege. For three months the churches of every denomination—Protestant, Romish, and Jewish— were all closed, and not merely by the four millions in the Duchy of Warsaw, but the 16 millions of the so-called Russian subjects, no costume was worn except black ; not even a riband of any other colour was sold in Warsaw, but from one end to the other of a country more extensive than this we beheld a whole nation in mourning. That was some proof of the universal feeling in Poland in 1861. (Cheers.) Now we saw that there was a nation in arms. The movement was not confined to what were popu larly called the people, but all the leaders and landowners of Poland, and even those who held judicial authority and public functions, had joined the insurgents. In the enormous province of Lithuania every one of the judicial functionaries had within the last few days resigned en masse. He bad an opportunity of asking Lord Palmerston on Mon day night in the House of Commons a question about Poland, and then had the opportunity of mentioning a few facts which he was very happy to hear had given great satisfaction to a large body of members on both sides of the house. (Applause.) General Langiewicz was a prisoner, but that gallant man had commanded over an area in Poland not wider at any point than 40 or 50 miles, while from east to west we could trace a straight line of 700 miles of insurrection, and going north from about the centre of that line we could trace 500 miles of Poland still in insurrection ; whereas the area in which Langie wicz had operated was about 1,600 square miles, the total area of insurrection was over 150,000 square miles. (Cheers.) It seemed evident that all classes, nobility, clergy, peasants, and shopkeepers, were united in the struggle. (Cheers.) It was remark able that the Grand Duke Constantine's order as to the conscription directed it to be levied not against the ordinary classes from which soldiers were taken, but against persons of a class similar to those who attended this meeting—the intelligent classes. In Warsaw it was generally speaking the middle class. The Grand Duke hoped by that means to put into his fortresses and barrack-rooms all those who, he thought, might lead the people. (Hear.) This,was an English question, not merely on account of treaty engagements, but because of the commercial inte rests connected with it. In 1842 it was pointed out, that, in defiance of treaty stipulations, Russia had extended a prohibitive system throughout her Polish dominions. This was done, he feared, not so much to carry out the mere policy of protection, but, like the conscription, as a means for crushing the peo ple. This town-hall was familiar with the voices of friends of commercial as well as the friends of poli tical freedom, and ho thought it was a fitting place in which in reference to this question they might vindicate the principles that they had advocated there so triumphantly for England. (Cheers.) Now came the practical question—What was to be THE ARmy. A general order, issued from the Horse Guards by command of the Duke of Cambridge, expresses the pleasure he has experienced in perusing the official report of MNjor•General Bloomfield, Inspector- General of Artillery, and his gratification at finding the Royal Regiment of Artillery is in such a high state of efficiency. The Deputy Adjutant-General, Col. Charles Bingham, in a general regimental order of the Royal Artillery, dated the 21st inst., promulgates the sub joined items of information :—Capt. and Brevet Major George T. Field, It.A,, to be Acting Gover nor of the General Hospital at Woolwich; second Capt. Walter C. Nangle to be Deputy-Assist. Quar termaster-Gen. at Woolwich, vice Capt. and Brevet Major Field. The undermentioned officers are raised to increased pay—viz,, Lieut.-Col. James Robert Gibbon, C,8., 15th Brigade, vice Turner,
