Once more the Prison Ministers Bill came under discussion ; and in committee Mr. PACKE com plained of the charge imposed by the bill upon the county rate. After enumerating the various quar rels and dissensions to which the present arrange ment would give rise, he suggested that the Govern ment had better establish a prison in some central part of the kingdom to which all Roman Catholic prisoners might be committed. He moved the omission from the clause of the words that provided for the payment of the chaplains out of the county rates. Sir G. GREY very properly objected to this proposal, because, he said, that if those words were struck out there would be no means of remunerating these gentlemen. Mr. BENTINCK was of opinion that this alteration should be made. The hon. member spoke most strongly against the bill as it was at present constituted, and declared his con viction that " it was the stepping stone to a great object which the Roman Catholic priests in this country had for years been endeavouring to accom plish, namely, that of putting themselves on an equality with the clergymen of the Church of Eng. land." It is a great pity for those in high places to talk in this style ; it engenders animosity, and encourages those who are beneath them in the, social sphere to follow their lead, and thus religious dissension is rife, where, with proper caution and due sentiments of tolerance, it might have been arrested. Mr. HENLEY made some very discreet observations. He suggested that perhaps the pro visions of the bill might be provided out of the Consolidated Fund. "He had supported the bill all through from motives of justice, and he thought it was wise to do everything to make it work as smoothly as possible." This is the true spirit in which to deal with such complicated ques tions as these, and Mr. HENLEY displayed great judgment in his line of argument. He was one of the chief opponents of the measure which sought to impose a tax on charities, and by his arguments he completely confounded the sophistry of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. On this occasion, also, he endeavoured to come to the rescue. Mr BENTINCK'S indignation wus again kindled at this concession of his hon. friend, as he thought, and he observed, with some acrimony, that he " very much regretted to'find that this remarkable bill was sup ported by the right hon. gentleman the member for Oxfordshire. The right hon. gentleman (Mr. HENLEY) had said he supported the bill as an act of justice to the Roman Catholics; but surely the ratepayers of this country also had some claims upon his right hon. friend." Mr. CONOLLY said that there was no difficulty met with in Ireland from having both Roman Catholic and Protestant chaplains in the gaols, and, therefore, why should such confusion be caused by a similar arrangement in this country? Finally, the amendment was negatived by a large majority. After some further discussion, the bill passed through committee. This has been a hardfought struggle,and although there were on most occasions large majorities when the disputed points came to a di v i s i on, still there have been so many bickerings and debates on the topic, that, altogether, this introduction of the Prison Ministers Bill has been made the oppor tunity of reviving in some degree that angry spirit Of intolerance in religious matters which was so rampant in the last generation. Therefore, not withstanding the apparently trivial nature of this measure, its result has been in some way a triumph of the; mportant pr i nc i p l e of civil and religious liberty lnsomuch so that it is most satisfactory to think that air GEORGE GREY has succeeded in getting his bill /Keeled through committee, and the light h on . baronet ma be congratulated on the result, whil e credit it y s due to him fo r the patience and perseverance which he has shown throughout the whole of the tedious dis cussions, and in spite of the decided stand that has been made against hi m in so me quart ers. The excitement of a grand field night of debate, and the enthusiasm that is aroused by any v ital question of importance, may urge one onward in fighting through great obstacles. But it is far more difficult to withstand the petty onslaughts that are made in cl oimittee, and the vexatious discussions on clauses are very trying to the equanimity of any one. ricarever, this is now what the French cad une a pare fins, and the annoyances may be forgotten, while the result, it is to ba trusted, will for many years prove beneficial to the temporal interests, while it conduces to the eternal welfare of those no. happy beings who are committed to the charge o the rulers of the land 'in consequence of having violated its laws and infringed its statutes. Still, it should never be forgotten that if, through misfor tune or by temptation, they are in this world Chil dren of Night, in th a t o th er an d b etter s t a te of which we look forward they are to " 141 " per. A fearful responsibility, therefore, is attached to all who have dealings with them here, so that hereafter they may not think that sufficient chance was not given them to repent of their evil ways, and to fall down before the footstool of that infinite mercy which holds out hope for the chief of sinners, nor denies the promise of grace at the eleventh hour, if only it is sought by the prayer of faith. A Shillizig Guide Book, of a rather unusual kind, came under our notice the other day, i..nd appeared to us, though nothing more than a Guide Book, one of the most affecting and eloquent publications we had for a long while met with. It was all this, simply for inasmuch as it was a Guide Book to the Charities of London. All the Eleemosynary In stitutions of the metropolis were therein catalogued. The volume was literally no more than a mere list of names and addresses, but every individual entry in it was the representative of an organised system of benevolence, Among those establishments we do not, for a single instant, hesitate to assert that one of the most beneficent of all—one of those institutions the most entitled to our sympathy—is that Royal Free Hospital in Gray's-inn-load, whose 3701 Anniversary Festival was celebrated, not quite a week ago, in Freemasons' Hall, and to whose Ear nest Appeal we would now, more cordially and more fervently than we have ever done yet, direct the general attention of the public. The very title of the noble institution we have named is the justifica tion of any panegyric that might be pronounced upon it. As the gifted Chairman at Wednesday's Dinner took occasion to remark in the course of his admir able speech in giving the toast of the evening— " The distinguishing character of the Royal Free Hospital is amply expressed by its simple name. It is A Free Hospital!" exclaimed Mr. CHARLES DICKENS, the Chairman of the night. "No recom mendation,"he reminded his audience with impnssive simplicity, " no recommendation is needed by the suffering creature who there seeks admission. No letter from a governor, or a subscriber, or what not, has with difficulty to be hunted out. Look at me ! Look at me ! lam sick, poor, helpless, forlorn ." These are the patients' credeatiale' —when seeking admission to the Royal Free Hospital. Never could the Great Novelist's own" Maggy" in Little Dorrit exclaim (poor half witted Waif and Stray of Society) with more earnest reason, than in speaking of this very institution, "0, ain't it Hospitally !" The appeal annually made to the public at large on behalf of the Royal Free Hospital, an appeal at all times persuasive, never yet, we believe, came one half so persuasively as it does this year, to the know ledge of our London philanthropists. The fact that it is so has already been demonstrated beyond the reach of denial by the success attendant upon that appeal already. A round sum of £6,100 sterling, it was announced but very recently, was desired in order to buy up the entire property of the Hospital in the Gray's inn -road, land, building, and all complete. Hitherto a yearly rental of £2OO or £250 has been paid for the occupancy of the building. Henceforth, that is to say at least, from the collecting together of the full amount of the purchase money, the amount of which has just been mentioned, there will be no rental at all to pay—the entire property being in perpetuity the institution's own. £6,100, recollec That was the sum total of the purchase money required. The announcement that it was required was made but very recently. The benevolent patrons of the institution have but lately bestirred themselves in collecting it. Yet already, of that .£6,loo—not less than £5,200 have even now been gathered together And as Mr. CHARLES DICKENS has capped the climax of his sympathetic co-operation in the fur therance of this beneficent enterprise by ensur ing the guarantee of the odd hundred out of the aggregate of £G,loo—no more than eight hundred pounds sterling additional are now needed to make the total amount of the purchase-money cGmplete. It rppears that of the .E. 5,200 already collected within a very brief interval, in the shape of subscriptions, fully £4,000 had been secured by the personal agency of the generous hearted Chair- man of the Board, Mr. GEORGE MOORE, one of the Merchant Princes of the City of London. When which same supporter of the Royal Free Hospi- tal came to be alluded to on Wednesday during the course of the spuzch delivered by the Chairman, no wonder that Mr. MooRE had the gratification of hearing himself spoken of by Mr. CHARLES DICKENS as " a gentleman present whom he (the Chairman) was proud to call his friend." Re membering, then, that £5,200 out of the £6,100 have already been actually collected; that £lOO more Mr. CHARLES DICKENS has formally guaranteed ; that consequently no more than the comparatively small sum of £BOO additional is now needed in order to complete the total amount of the purchase money—we cannot believe that ihEra will be any difficulty in so collecting it. A Hospital that is distinguishable among a our noble London Hospitals as being The Free Hospital —a Hospital that, although possess- ing not yet quite 100 bads can, never theless, do so vast an amount of good to the suffering poor as this one does annually within its own doors, while at the same time relieving in a single ,year (as it did in,1862) no less than 60,000 out-patients—is surely a Great Public Charity that cannot long ask in vain for a little balance of £BOO. Many will regret the tone adopted by Count PERSIGNY. The EMPEROR won golden opinions from all sides when, in his opening speech, he counselled the people of France to copy as much as possible the example of the English people. Now, however, the Minister of the Interior seems to repudiate this theory, although it was promul gated by one for whom be ought to entertain re spect. In the circular addressed to the Prefects of Departments, he says that the " play" of parties is very suitable in England, but not in France. He goes on to say that in a country like theirs this play of parties can be repeated," but by prolonging revolution and endangering liberty." After stating that parties in France are often only factions, he thus informs the Prefect of his duty :—" The suf frage is free; but, in order that the good faith of the populations may not be deluded by cleverness of language or equivocal professions of faith, desig. nate loudly, as in the preceding elections, the can didates who inspire the Govet nment with moat con fidence. Let the populations know who are the friends or the adversaries, more or less disguised, of the Empire, and let them decide in full liberty, but with complete knowledge of the state of the ease.'' This is a curious version of liberty, and it would tax the ingenuity of many persons to arrive at the solu tion of such a mystery. It is the more to be regretted because the arrangements that were entered into at the commencement of the session were apparently of a permanent class, and gave great satisfaction to all wh o f u ll y comprehended the questi on , and re cognised the importanc e of rendering the French institutions as similar as possible to the English. Such assertions as those referred to can do no good, and are apt to irritate those to whom they are ad dressed, without convincing any one. It is not the way to conciliate the members of any class of poli ticians to tell them plainly, or even to hint, th a t they are not fit to be trusted with the responsibili ties, az exercise the privileges which they see their THE SUN, LONDON, TUEiDAY EVENING, MAY 12, 1363 neighbours exercising, and thereupon reaping many and great benefits. It is rather exaggerated lan guage to employ to call opponents " a coalition of hostilities, rancour, and spite," and it is the more unwise, as just now there is outward tranquillity at least from those stormy discussions and fitful phases that were wont in olden times to deform and dis figure the social spheres in France. If some were disappointed at the EMPEROR'S peculiar tenets upon certain points, the generality of his subjects are well content with the present aspect of affairs. Tlacy fancy that a strong Government is a good preven tive to riots and disturbances, and are looking for ward to the time when an increase of confidence will be eagerly responded to by the multitudes who will reap therefrom inestimable advantages. Now, however, if o,e Minister of the Interior is truly re presenting the new regime of policy, great disap pointment will be experienced at this retrograde movement, and it is to be hoped that there may yet be some modification of the extreme notions that seem prevalent i❑ the communication referred to. The position cf the Danish KING and Cabinet is not just now a very enviable one. After years of harassing dissensions, foreign encroachments, and internal discord, the SOVEREIGN and his Ministers have recently resolved on trying by a bold step to extricate themselves from their perplexities. The Proclamation of March 30th, while generally re garded in this country as fair, open, and moderate, has not succeeded in satisfying either Danes or Ger mans. It was, of course, merely an outline, leaving much to be filled up by experience and reflection ; but it established the important fact of the partial independence of Holstein, while it declared Schles wig to be incontestably part and parcel of Den mark. As was anticipated by all who had watched the turbulent and aggressive conduct of the German Powers, more especially of Prussia, during the course of the dispute, there was an immediate out cry raised by the members of the Confederation at the prospect of losing their claim on Schleswig. Angry threats and indignant expostulations arose from every representative assembly, while Herr VON BISMARB, for once quite in his element, de clared that if necessary he would support the honour of Prussia by a war, on which he should not trouble himself to consult the Deputies. Meanwhile, though the Germans think that the Procla mation accords too little, some of the Danes complain that it grants too much. The recent debate in the Rigsraad on the address to the KING in reply to the Speech from the Throne, shows the different opinions of Danish politicians in an inte. resting manner. Professor CLAUSEN, in moving the address, remarked that the Royal proclamation had been and was the subject of the most diverging conceptions, not only at home, but with the German Governments. He added that in Holstein it had provoked expressions of feeling which in any other country would have been regarded as meditated treason. The anger of Germany could, he said, be easily comprehended, for she saw the hope for the fulfilment of which she had so strenuously worked since 1851, vanishing. That hope had been to entangle the Danish Government, so that it could neither move hand nor foot. It was high time, said the speaker, for Denmark to act, and he expressed his satisfaction at finding in the Speech from the Throne a declaration that the KING was resolved to uphold the liberty and independence of the pro vinces which, happily, do not belong to the mischief making Confederation. The address proposed by this gentleman did not, however, correspond to ourusual Parliamentary form at the opening of a session, for we find the Premier rising after Professor CLAUSEN and asking the object and intention of the proposed address. M. DE KALL and several other rrambers of the Cabinet all agreed in demanding that the representatives should give a decided expression to their sentiments by a vote of confidence or the re verse. In the one case they would be strengthened to act, in the other they would immediately resign beir responsibilities into the hands of better ex ponents of the popular will. To this the framers and supporters of the address would not accede. They declared that the occasion did not demand such an uncompromising expression of opinion:. One of the proposers, M. HOTTI ER HAGE, went so far as to say that he considered it would be a great misfortune for the country if the present Ministry should resign, but that it it were to receive the sup port of the people it must regard their wishes in some degree. The Vice-President complained that, by dividing the army, the Government had created a hostile army within its own frontiers. He con- sidered that all that was gained by the eroelama• tion was, that if they had to go to war with Ger many it would be for a part of their rights instead of the whole. To this the Minister of Instruction very justly replied, that had not the separation of the army been accomplished, Holstein would have refused to vote its own share of the expenses. On the second day of the debate, Captain JACOBSEN, a fresh speaker, observed that it was important that they should do nothing to render the subsequent adhesion of Holstein impassible, and that the great object should be to keep the monarchy together. After further discussion, according to a custom of the Danish Rigsraad, which would seem strange if followed by our be-wigged Speaker, the President, M. MADVIG, left the chair, and addressed the Assembly from the body of the hall. His speech was clear, able, and temperate, and although not decidedly in favour of he Government, for he supported the adoption o, he Address with aEnendments, the tone of his dis course was advantageous to them. He did no acknowledge the legality of the step taken by the publication of the document of March 30, but he admitted that it would have greatly complicated matters if the KING, by referring to the Rigsraad, had left them the responsibility of excluding Hol- stein. He thought it better to accept the fact as it stood, and to remember that though there were diffi. culties connected with the present arrangement, yet they had had only the choice between difficul. ies and impossibilities. M. MADVIG also said very ustly that the Itigsraad should not ask for a revi- sion of the constitution during the present session --- The Ministers have offered to attempt it if it was the wish of the Assembly, but it is manifest that this is the very worst time that could be selected ror such an experiment. Their minds are unsettled, and counter influences are at work which are any thing but favourable to a work which demands internal peace and outward tranquillity. While affairs with Germany, too, are in their present pre cirions condition, it would be rash to begin experi meats in legislation. Let the old armour serve once more if needed, but do not send it to the armourer to be polished and remodelled just as the enemy may be at the gate. The President consi- dered that the Rigsraad should be careful to allow the Schleswigers sufficient liberty. Certainly the Duchy is placed in perilous contiguity to turbulent and refractory Holstein, and elements of disaffection are probably at work in it. It will need a firm, yet liberal, hand to retain it in the monarchy. The Premier, in again addressing the Assembly, boldly declared that the Germanic Confederation had by tar exceeded right in its claims, and that the Go vernment had always opposed them. Whether it nu' shown sufUcient strength in resisting them they might d ou b t, but they could not deny the fact of t h e rgbilitau ce . He thought it probable that when Holstein saw that a separ:t tion was possible it might begin to see the advantages of coalition. This opinion is certainly consistent with the perversity hitherto shown by the Duchy under the influence of German agents. The evil has at length grown too great to be endured. It is hindering the internal development of the country and paralysing its progress in every way. Denmark nas already suffered enough by losing Sweden, in 1814, to trust too much to the great European Powers. She most assert her own rights and dig nity, and maintain by every means in her power the integrity of her dominions. As yet we have given her but little help; our dynastic entangle- ments with her arch-enemy, Prussia, have hindered us from coming boldly forward on the side of right against might. Lord RUSSELL'S friendly advice, however, produced such general indignation in this country that the experiment will hardly be re peated, and the English Parliament may even in siiA o our Government according at least a moral support to Denmark in the coming struggle. w trust, in any case, that King, Cabinet, and Rigs raad will stand together, and add the force of unity of purpose and action to the strength already theirs by ancient and prescriptive right. THE ROYAL JOURNEY NORTHW ARD .--It i s now arranged that her Majesty will leave Windso r on Friday next, at 6.50 p.m., travelling by way of Oxford and Leamington to Bushbury station, and thence by the Lon den and North-Western line to Carlisle, which will be reached at 4.7 a.m. on Saturday. At Perth there will be a pause on the journey, for rest and refreshment, of an hour and fifteen minutes, namely, from 8.40 to 9,55 (on Saturday morning). Aberdeen (Ferry-hill Junction) will be reached at 12.36, and Aboyne at 1.50 pm. A two hours' journey, by posting, will bring the Royal party to Balmoral. The strictest privacy will be observed at all the stations North British THE WHITSUNTIDE RECESS —lt is understood that Parliament will adjourn for the Whitsun holidays on this day week, Tuesday, the 19th The usual period for adjournment is the Friday before Whitsunday ; but as the " Derby," which falls on the "oth, would also break up the week, the occasion will be availed of for the early adjourn • went above stated. The recess genera ly extends to the Thursday after Whitsunday. THE BRIGADE OF GUARDS AND THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES.—We understand that the Brigade of Guards are making arrangements to give a ball in honour of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, who have been graciously pleased to signity their intention of gracing it with their presence. It is expected to take place towards the end of June, and will doubtless prove the most brilliant fete of the season. THE WESTERN FISHERIES.—MackereI have thus early been caught on the Devonshire and Cornish coasts. Last week the men employed at the Mount's Bay Fishery landed from 200 to 900 pet boat, which sold at from 21s to 30s, per hundred. At Mevagissey the mackerel seines are out. Some of them shot last week, the largest take being 1,300. The fish were small. PLYMOUTH, Monday.—Tue American ship Amazon, Captain Hovey, from New York, on the 25th of April, with a full general cargo, for London, landed nine passengers here this evening. A fatal accident oc curred this afternoon in Devonport dockyard, when re moving from a pile of umber, 20tt. high, a balk weighing two tons. It was connected by a guy rope to another balk, weighing one ton, to assist iu lowering it. The heavy piece rolled unexpectedly, and both came down together. John Chubb, leading man of labourers, was killed on the spot—John Jessop, labourer, was severely contused—An drew Couch received some contusions on the head—and Matthew Sowdon wa s injured in the arm and legs. ROYAL DOCKYARD ARTILLERY VOLUNTEERS.— This brigade carried on gun practice on Saturday last, for the first time this season, at the Ten •gun Battery, Plumstead Marshes, with 32• pounders on garrison and siege carriages at a range of 1,200 yards, under the superin tendence of the adjutant of the corps; and although the non-commissioned officers and gunners present had not fired shot or shell before, the shooting was exceedingly good, the shots either passing through or falling within a radius of a few feet of the target. THE FIRE NEAR DRuRY-LANE.—Yesterday Mr. W. J. Payne held an inquest at the St. George's Hotel, in the Strand, respecting the deaths of Anne Ref• fell, aged 18 years, and Mark Patterson, aged 23, shopman, and shop attendant to Mr. E. Head, linendraper and silk mercer, who perished in the fire that occurred on the nigh; of Thursday last on their employer's premises, Blackmoor. street, Drury-lone. A number of witnesses having been examined, the jury returned a verdict, "That the deceased were accidentally burned to death, but there was not suffi cient evidence to prove how the fire was caused—and they recommended the exertions of Conductor Tapsell to the notice of the society for his indefatigable exertions at the fire, and also the police." WRECK OF THE ORPIIEUS.—In 1846 in her Majesty s sloop Osprey, Captain Patten el as w ccked off the same fatal bar. An interesting account of the encampment of her crew, and their match across the ieiand to New Zealand, was written by the steward (Mr H. Moot,), and has been introduced by the Lords of the Admiralty into the seamen's libraries. The signal then was, " Take the bar, there is no danger," THE GREAT EASTERN.—The repairs rendered necessary in consequence of the recen mishap to the "big ship" are now completed, and the will take her departure from Liverpool for New York on Saturday next. Advantage has been taken of the delay in repairing the vessel to effect many improvements in the arrangements of the state rooms which experience had demonstrated to be desirable, so as to ensure the comfort of passengers. GLASGOW, May 9 — Cotton.—During the week the cotton-market has been very brisk, and prices have advanced about ld. to id. per lb. Goods and Yarns.— There has been an active demand for goods and yarns dun. ing the week, and yarns have advanced a full id. Iron.—The pig iron market, which was firm during the early part of this week at 51s. cash for warrants, has since become flat, and to-day 50s. 6d. prompt was accepted to several thou sand tons, cloeing sellers, with buyers each in 14 days. For shipment the quotations are :—G.M 8., No. 1,50 s. Gd. ; No. 3, 495.

TRADE OF CARDIFF. — Great activity has been witnessed in the shipments of both coal end iron during the month of April, and the returns show a sub stantial increase. The exports over sea for the month were :-128,541 tons of coal, 21,519 tons of iron, 387 tons ( 1 coke, and 1,901 tons of patent fuel, being an increase of 6,024 tons of coal and 8,831 tons of iron: as compared with the previous month. The total shipments over sea for the four months of the present year have been 469,684 tons o coal and 56,404 tons of iron, against 424,394 tons of cos] 54,394 tons of iron in 1862, and 344,784 tons of coal end 47,771 tons of iron in 1861. These returns show a gratify ing increase in the trade of the port. VACANCY.—The Washington correspondent of the New York herald writes :—"There is a curious story in circulation here, related on authority that is gene- rally considered reliable It appears th•it there is at present residing in Belgium a distinguished French officer, named Bulow, Beuhier, or Beulet (I am not exactly certain which), who has a reputation for miitary knowledge and adminis• trative ability. President Lincoln having heard of this gentleman, sent him, through the War Department, an in vitation to come to this country, offering to make him a _ _ _ Major• general of Volunteers, not with the view, however, of his taking the field, but of assuming the position of As- sistant-Secretary of War, in which his capacity for organiea, tion would find full exercise. When the matter was broached to him he at once took steps to inform himself as to what kind of man the Secretary of V/sr was. He was told that he was an educated lawyer, that ho had been Attorney- General towards the close of Mr. Buchanan's Presidential term, and that suddenly, and without being much known to the country, he was made Secretary of War in place of Mr. Cameron. He also learned that he was a very impulsive man, and very domineering. The Generel, on hearing these facts, returned the following reply to the proposition:— " There are three objections to my going to your country in ,he capacity proposed to me. In the first place an impulsive man is of all others the most unfitted for the head of a War Department. In the next a domineering man is net a man I desire to serve under; and lastly, no milita, y man of any regard for his reputation will ever consent to serve under a lawyer.' So that it is decided that the General is not to visit the United States, at least under the existing regime at th© War Department." The Empress Eugenie has purchased at the dog show a little Havannah lap •dog, which rejoices in the name of Coquette. This animal is a beautiful speci- men of her race. "Her hair is fully eight inches long, and of snowy whiteness and silky fineness. The body is very small, as is also the head, but the tail appears an. enormous fleece, and the ears of proportionate size. Coquette lives in a glass house, on the floor of which is a Persian carpet. She lies upon a cushion covered with crimson silk, and seems a very dainty beir g, Her food and the water she drinks are placed in a corner of the afbresaid glass.bouse on a porcelain plate and in a silver cup which she won for her [Mu proprietor." EDWARD THE BLACK PRINCE.—A life-size model of this chivalrous Prince now adorns the splendid room of the Hall of Kings, in Baker-street, and is, without exception, the most beautifully-executed effigy in Messrs. Tussaud's exhibition. The panoply in which the figure is encased is of exquisite workmanship, andraiects the highest possible credit on the talent display.d by that eminent ar mourer, Mons, Granger, of Paris. Figures of Edward 111. and eiiillipa his Q ueen are likewise to be seen. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) PRUSSIA. BERLIN, MAY 12. At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies to day, the President read a letter, signed by the Ministers, stating that so long as the House sup ports the assumption made yesterday by the Presi dent of a right to limit the Minister's freedom of speech, the members of the Cabinet should no longer be present at the sittings of the Chamber. The Ministers require a declaration from the Deputies that the House has no disciplinary autho rity over the members of their body. The letter of the Ministers has been referred to a special committee, and until the question of principle is decided no full meeting of the Cham ber will be held. The Judicial Committee of the Chamber has authorised the prosecution of the Polish members Dzialynski and Guttrys. THE POLISH INSURRECTION, STETTIN, MAY 12. The Ostdeutsche Zeitung of to-day says :—" Upon the Bth inst. eighteen companies of Russian infan try, with eight guns and five squadrons of cavalry, attacked Taczanowski in Ignacewo, near Konin. After a stubborn resistance, the assailants succeeded in storming the place, which had been strongly barricaded, and the Poles retreated towards Silesia. WARSAW, MAY 6 Some days ago an order was issued by the Re volutionary Committee that the inhabitants of the Praga suburb—numbering some 12,000 souls—were to remove to another portion of the town. Sus picion being hereby aroused, search was made, lead ing to the discovery, in the evening, of workmen oc cupied in forming a mine beneath the fort upon the right bank of the Vistula, opposite the citadel. Tne miners were arrested. They stated, upon in terrogation, that, upon the 13th of the month, it was intended to blow up the tort, containing a gar rison of 800 men and a large store of powder. The bridge carrying the railway across the river is to be built up to this fort, and will be commenced in the course of the year. Many reports are in circu lation as to what is intended to happen upon the 13th, the day when the amnesty expires; but no one knows for certain whence the dreaded blow will be delivered. The National Government has drawn the attention of the English company for the water supply and draining of the town to the illegality of the con tract it has concluded with Count Sigismund Wielo polski, pointing out that Wielopolski was not au thorised to conclude any agreement without the consent of the Town Council. The insurgent chiefs Lewandowski and Leoa Frankowski are still alive and under medical treat• ment in prison. The Department of Justice has declined to co operate with the Government in carrying out the confiscation decree in Poland, as no law authorising such a measure is in existence. R 0 M E.

A Warsaw letter of the 6th, in the National Gazette of Berlin, says : "lei, Keller, the Director of the Commission of the Interior, has resigned and been succeeded by Count Ostrowski, brother-in-law of the Marquis Wielopolski. This fact proves that the latter hes happily surmounted the late crisis, and that his second adversary, General Berg, will also soon leave the place. Count Ostrowski will, moreover, be a Director of the Interior, In partibus irOdelium, for there is not perhaps a single public functionary who would not more willingly obey the National Govern. ment than his regular uffieial chiefs. The clerks here send back most of the timid people who come to pay their taxes ; the officials of the passport establishment furnish the volunteers with the means of joining the insurgents, and the other functionaries of the Interior have for the most part handed over their powers to the military authorities. At Lodz, the insurgents have for the second time invaded the bank and carried off 10,000 roubles. The saint. happens to most of the public treasuries not pro tected by a garrison. Under tt ose circumstances, as most of the clerks have been deprived of their salaries for several weeks past, the burgomasters of the small towns have requested the inhabitants to pay at least such a portion of their taxes es will enable the clerks to receive one•half of what is due to them." The Ost Deutsche Post of Vienna has the follow isg from the Austro-Polish frontier of the 6th " A warm fire of musketry was heard the day before yesterday near Niepolomice. According to a wounded insurgent who crossed the frontier it was caused by a detachment of 200 men with two pieces of artillery, on their way to rejoin other binds, be ing attached by a body of Russians. A Polish de tachment, 400 strong, was on the same day attacked and defeated by the Russians near Igolomia. This detachment was destined to be commanded by Mier oslawski in person, and was to have been increased to 600 men, but that chief was not present in this affair. The subdivisions were commanded by French men. After a combat of an hour the insurgents entered on the Austrian territory, and delivered up their arms. The Russians lost 30 men, and the in surgents 50." The Vienna Gazette of the Bth says : " Captain Annenkoff of the Russian Guard, went to Czulice the day before yesterday for the pr.rpose of ascertaining on the spot the circumstances con nected with the violation of Austrian territory by the Russian troops. Being satisfied as to the facts, Captain Annenkoff gave 1,200 florins to a woman named Pi‘ff, the si , ter and only relative of a soldier who had been killed by the Russians, and offered an indemnity to Lieutenant Gebara, who at the same time had been despoiled of his money and watch ; but the latter declined to accept it, as his loss had already been made good by his own sovereign. Captain Annenkoff then assured the lieutenant that the Grand Duke deeply regretted what had passed, and promised that the officer who had been in fault should be duly punished. From Gzulice Captain Annenkoff went to Michaelowice and Miechow to recommend the troops there, in the name of the Grand Duke, to strictly respect the Austrian frontier ; and he afterwards went to Ulanow and Narol to pay ample indemnities to the inhabitants of those localities who had suffered from the violation of the frontier." Reduction of the Army at the British Museum. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SIIN. SlR,—The visitors to the British Museum, especially those interested in what is called financial reform, must be delighted with that splendid specimen of national economy exhibited at the gates, in the person of the one sentinel, in lieu of two, who formerly, in the days of lavish expenditure, did duty at the establishment. What saving will be effected by this change, of course remains to be seen; that it will be the means of taking another penny off the income tax is, perhaps, more than can be expected ; but, whatever the re sult, no one can doubt its being one of the most complete exhibitions of practical retrenchment ever brought under public notice; and what makes the matter so remarkable, and literally thrusts it on the attention of people, is the shut-up and uninhabited sentry-box—that unoccupied abode causes persons, particularly those from the country, to inquire ut the left tenant. Friends from the conti nent go home with the impression that the British army is reduced one-half. Classical readers passing in and •ut look upon the solitary soldier as the victo rious Horatii. The Peace Society look upon the movement as a step in the right direction, and a great many neither notice nor trouble themselves about it ; but, be that as it may, one sentry has a very otid look, and if the regu lation is to be a general one, the vacant arch at the Horse Guards will attract more attention than the empty box at the Museum; and although the subject is one of very little consequence, still, if it is thought desirable to post sentries at national institutions (and I have not a word to say to the contrary), the proper number should be placed or none. The immortal one policeman at tie-ne Bay may there be enough for all useful purposes, but one soldier for a building like the British Museum has a very stingy look, and if the country cannot afford two, it will be better to have none at all.--I have the honour to be, sir, your most obedient ser vant, G. F, May 11, 1863. ADVICES FROM VICKSBURG. The advices from New York, by the Arabia, dwell much on the despatches of General Grant, detailing the success of the Federal gunboats and transports in passing the batteries of V cksburg. Just before the signal defeat sustained by the Federals before Charlestan, we gave a description of its immense resources for defence; we now subjoin some inte resting details of those of Vicksburg, military operations against which Confederate stronghold the North are about again to resume. It appears there are quartered in the city about 6,000 infan try, and other camps in the surrounding country are within call. In various streets from the river there are broad screens of canvas swings, behind which are said to be heavy guns for shot and shell, so placed as to command the river both above and below the bend. Toe first two streets along tae levee are occupied by lines of rifle pits, to make a landing dangerous. A heavy water battery frowns at a little above the bend for a raking fire, and on the walnut grove bluff above are situated in the thicket 17 siege guns in - position, to com mand with a plunging fire the approach from above and below. Near by is the signal station, where a flag by day and a lantern by night may send word of battle imminent to the forces in the interior, or up the Yazoo. Another signal -tower is the church, situated north-east of the city. Below the city is a line of batteries and rifle pits. The total defences of Vicksburg appear to be—siege guns in position in the:streets, 8; water battery, 4 ; batteries north of the city, 18 ; wa l nut b atter i es, 17; two bat teries on the bluff, 8; batteries below the city, 24 making altogether 89 guns. In some financial circles there are parties who aver that the projected emission in the London market of a large amount of Federal Bonds is an excellent idea on the part of the Lincoln Government, the success of which is to dispel the impression created by the favourable re ception of the Confederate loan in the European markets. The flourishing accounts of the Federal movements are supposed to be much on a par with those promulgated during the last two years, and but little apprehension seems to be entertained re lating: to Vicksburg. In fact, the impression is gaining ground that diplomacy must at last inter fere, since the subjugation of the South appears to be as far off as ever. The fluctuations in gold continue. At the last accounts. Mr. Chase had been in New York for some days, but had left again for Washington, without anything 'transpiring, in an official shape, relating to his intentions of raising money in Europe.

TEA-1 here has been a very limited amount of business transacted, and prices have exhibited no material alteration. SUGAR—The dewand for home consumption has not been very active, and owing to the large stocks on hand prices have slightly given way. In the refined market there is little change to retard, the general tendency of prices, how ever, is towards a decline. COFFEE—OnIy limited dealings have been recorded, and there is no material alteration to notice in the value of the colonial descriptions. Rica—The demand has been moderately active, and quotations have in most instances been well sustained. SALTPETRE—There has been scarcely any inquiry except for the finer descriptions of British refined, which have barely sustained previous prices. TALLOW —A better tone has prevailed during the last few days, and prices have shown an upward tendency for both present and forward delivery. P.Y.C. on the spot being quoted 43s 3d to 43s 6d, and last three months' delivery 46s 3d per cwt. NEW PRINTING MACHINE.—The London corre spondent of Macniven and Cameron's Paper 'Trade Review says :—" There is an English engineer of the name of Wilkinson who has invented a machine for the printing of newspapers which completely surpasses Hoe's machine in respect of speed. lam unable to go into a detailed de scrip tion of this machine, but one feature of it that demands note is that the paper from which it prints is in the web on the reel, and after passing under the types it is cut in sheets. The extraordinary velocity of the machine is almost i,:cre dible, 23,000 copies of the inside sheet of the limes tieing printed on both sides at once per hour. This machine does without feeders, and the reel of paper that it feeds from is unrolled by its own action, The price of the ma chine is considerably under the price for Hoe's machine."
