SALON ICA, JUNE 13. The French steamer Solon, Cap , ain Baron Rous sin, arrived here the day before yesterday from Dafne, a port near Mount Athos. It brings news that in consequence of the attitude assumed by the new Greek Cabinet, Caratasso had capitulated to Baron Roussin, with all his men, on the following conditions, but without the intervention of the Turks : 1. Djarni Caratasso and his followers, whom he stated numbered GOO men, give up their arms and baggage iuto the hands of Baron Roussin. 2. They are to be embarked at Dafne, on the 13th of June, either on board the French steamer, or by a tram-port, and to be taken to Caieis in the island of Eubea. 3. On their arrival there, Caratasso, his men, and the arms and baggage, are to be placed in the hands of the Greek authorities. The steamer came her&'purposely to inform the Pacha of this event, bringing a letter from the Turkish admiral to obtain coals, and a ship to take off Caratasso and his followers. As a good many Rajahs (subjects of the Porte) are supposed to be amongst Caratasso's followers, measures are being taken to separate them. Cara tasso left his Lieutenant Zacaropulo in the hands of Baron Roussiu as hostage. This news has had a very good effect, as it frees the neighbourhood cf Salonica from agitation. It is also hoped now that the continual passage of regular and irregular troops through the villages will cease. The Solon also carried the French consul of Sira, an English man, and three Greek agents, to Thessaly. They are on a mission to Pappacosta, who exercises great influence over the insurgents, and it is hoped that he will be persuaded to retire with all his followers. Letters which have just come in by the postal steamer from Athens already announce that Pap pacosta, Bazaris, and Tzavella have recrossed the frontiers and regained the soil of Greece. 51 A 3:Er Ng 11 7 S-4T 1118 DA Y.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN, Sin,—This bill passed the House of Lords by the convincing ,S majority of 2, in a h ouse compose d o f 12 mem b ers; and, after successive postponements, its second reading in the House of Commons has been announced for Monday next. It is calculated to ruin the practitioners in Doctors' Com mons in the following manner. Our contentious business it sit once transfers to the solicitors ; and of our common form r business it gives one-half to the country proctors, leaving the other half to us for ten years only, as a sort of " loaf and cup Isof water," to avoid the i m p u t a ti on o f s t arv i ng us ou t r i g ht . It does indeed allow the London proctors (120 in number) ISo share, if they can, the future testamentary business with some 111,000 solicitors; but it is well known, and the evidence gi ven before the Chancery Commission, only last year, estab - lit bed the fact, that the proctors obtain their clients at present th•ough the solicitors. It must be obvious, therefore, to any one but the Lord Chancellor that all our business will stop in Iran .itu in the offices of the solicitors themselves, that the bill 12 /ill make ourbest clic , ts our' keenest rivals, dissolve our past connexions, laboriously or expensively acquired, and force us to setk new clients through entirely new channels. If, b ending to the storm, we ask but for compensation for suck losses, we are told we must take the consequences of Jestslation, and that Sye can form part, erships with the solici tors. But what fair equivalent can we offer them? They have Alrsady got over the " chance of dying of their own too much, " awl in future their clients bringing wills to prove will be' introduced to some quondam clerk of Doctors' Com mons, as " the gentleman who superintends our testamentary depart went." It is true the Ecclesiastical Courts need extensive reform. Institutions which have existed . for centuries with scarcely any alteration must obviously require amendment to adapt them to the changes society has undergone. Our profession should be open to all corners willing to devote themselves to it, leav ing the supply to be regulated wholly by the demand, and the statutory restriction on the business arrangements between proctors and solicitors repealed. Our clerical nomenclature is repugnant to the feelings and honest prejudices of a large pro portion of our fellow -countrymen, and confounds us with a system, with which, with that exception, our testamentary business has no connexion; and our monster sinecure, riveted upon us by Parliament, is both a reproach and injury to us. It is here that the Chancellor's argument would be just that if, in making these and other needful alterations, the interests of the proctors should be , affected, they must yield to those of the public at large ; and I am - sure our profession would be willing to rely for recompense for any such losses on the addi tional business the increased efficiency of our courts would obtain for us. To remodel and reconstruct in the practical spirit of English legislation is not, hoWever, the Object of the present bill ; but the annihilation, pure and simple, of our testamentary courts. Such, a measure is in complete opposition to the whole weight of evidence of the reports of Royal commis sions, and, up to this session, of committees of both Houses of Parliament ; and the merchants and bankers of London, and seventy of the leading firms of London solicitors, have petitioned Parliament against it. Is it too much to ask of the promoters of this bill to show some great public advantage resulting from such great private injury, and that our present system of procedure is so rotten, and ourselves so much part and parcel of it, that the benefits of reform must be measured by the amount of ruin which it inflicts upon us ? May we not reasonably expect to have our efficiency, as ref .rmed, first tried ? The floodgates may at any time, by the simplest act of legislation, be opened to ad mit the solicitors; but when once opened our immediate de struction is irretrievable, unless some barrier gradually to mitigate that result be first provided: Incompetency on our part cannot be averred; for the voluminous evidence before Parliament fully proves our respectability and efficiency. The real property clauses have been withdrawn from the bill, and no inconvenience has hitherto arisen from the line of demarcation between the jurisdictions of the Courts of Chancery and Doctors' Commonp. Questions of validity are entirely different from questions of construction or distribution ; so are the litigant parties ; and, it would seem, so also the numbers of their counsel, four or six being required in Doctors' Commons, and from twenty to thirty even in remodelled Chancery. In expense, also, the dissimilarity is still preserved, the costs in the instance recently quoted in the Times by a Chancery barrister of a corn• mission to take evidence being, in Doctors' Commons, 71. per diem, in Chancery, 371. per diem. The solicitors, besides their Parliamentary, conveyancing, mescals , ile, and other business, already practise in the com mon law, equity, bankruptcy, insolvency, and criminal courts of the country—studies surely of sufficient magnitude and variety to admit of question whether it would be wise to add to them those of another whole profession ; for this bill " is but the prelude to the ruder gale." The Chancellor has already introduced a bill for the transfer of our jurisdiction in causes of marriage and divorce to the Court of Chancery. Our purely ecclesiastical business is very small, and our admiralty busi ness, notwithstanding the well-deserved popularity of its pre sent court, must depart from us with the rest, as it will never be tolerated that a court to whose arbitrement nations sub mit their claims should be confined to some dozen practi tioners to which our profession will then have dwindled. Our bar, too, on which the highest encomiums have been passed, and which has given to the world such men as Sir Leoline Jenkins and Lord Stowell, is to be destroyed with us. It is already a complaint of our jurists that the ,ivil law is not studied as its merits deserve. Is it wise to destroy our only courts which foster it ? We are at the commencement of what may be a long European war. Is it wise, at such a time, to disperse the bar and practitioners of our Admiralty Court, upon the consequences of whose decisions may depend the destinies of nations ? It is in evidence before the Chancery Commissioneis, that, comparing the number of attorneys with the number of proc tors and the amount . of our testamentary business, an attor ney would be thirty-three years in acquiring as much expe rience as a proctor novs-does in one year. Will the public be better served by the former, with so limited au experience, than by the latter, with heir constant practice and exclusive devotion to it, and,; such a division of labour to be called monopoly ? The remark of Lord Erskine mentioned by Lord Brougham, " You would not surely send a fellow-creature into th e C our t of Chancery," reminds us all of the estimation in which Chan cery was up to no late period held, and the recent great re forms have not yet been fully tried. If unsuccessful, it were most unwise to extend the jurisdiction of those courts; if successful, those courts will be fully employed. A most fatal error of the bill—as, did space permit me, I could fully prove—is the severance of the contentious from the common form business. Experience in the former is the essential requisite for a due Worn:mime of the latter. The clearly proved incompetency of the country courts results entirely, as shown by Lord John Russell in the debate on the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill of 1544, from the small amount of their contentious business ; and the distinction between the two branches will be most difficult to be drawn, but the bill proposes their complete separation. Its provisions affecting us may be thus summed up :—Our fees, of course, must be reduced ; our common form business diminished one half, and that secured to us for ten years only, and our contentious - business taken away altogether. Part of our business will thus be given to the country proc tors, already incompetent to discharge it, and likely to con tinue so—a further part to the solicitors at present ignorant of it, and incapable as a body of acquiring extensive experi ence in it. The small remainder left to us will be clearly in sufficient to preserve our efficiency, and we are to be com pensated (!) by being admitted as solicitors, i.e., to practise a profession of which we know nothing, in competition with men thoroughly conversant with it. It really seems to me that a more ingenious process for in suring competency by effecting injustice could not well be devised. It Nxas stated in the House of Lords that the title of Mr. Moore to his sinecure was as good as the title of any of the noble lords to their estates. The position of a proctor cannot certainly in its quality or emoluments be compared with that of a noble lord. but as regards its quality it may not unfavourably be contrasted with Mr. Moore's. His is not a patent office, nor .does the statute 9 Geo. -IV., c. 51, in any way guarantee to him its continuance ; whereas the proctors are secured iu their exclusive practice and emoluments by the statute 53 Geo. 111., c. 127, s. 9, which imposes penalties on any participation in their fees or functions. Why, then, under his conviction of the necessity of so sweeping a reform amongst us, are only Mr. Moore's claims to compensation intelligible to the Lord Chancellor ? Is it because Mr. Moore is, like many of the noble lords, indebted for his title to the position of his forefathers—or is it because the claims of the proctors, being founded on services rendered, are too subtle for the Lord Chancellor's comprehension?

ENGLISH AND 'ATERNISATION. The two nations of England and France are inclined to fra ternise cordially towards each other. Their interests are one, and they seem bent upon showing their belief that such is the case, whereupon it becomes quite clear that there is ter rible jealousy existing in the minds of certain parties lest the people of the two nations should learn more of each other, and give up all future quarrels and war. Thus upon a pro position being made that a certain number of distinguished Frenchmen should be invited to Loudon to participate in a national festival to celebrate the union between England and France, the Times preaches abstinence, talks gravely of the disregard of the ccnivenances which would take place should the two nations be dining together in the West, while they are fighting side by side against a common enemy in the East, and recommends that we should dine after - victories are achieved, and not before. But the. festival, or by whatever more ap prOpriate name it may be called, was not proposed in order to celebrate the fact that war was being waged, but that a peace of the utmost importance to the salvation of the world existed. France and England do not dine together to demonstrate their joy at being opposed to Russia, but to express their delizbt at the fact of their being united as.aqies. It is not at all improbable that if one of the temporising Orleanists had been on the throne of France, the two nations might have been merely connected together by conventional arrangements. It is scarcely passible to imagine any Prince of the House of Orleans joining so heartily in his opposition. to the great northern missionary of despotism as Louis Bonaparte has done. Had fate left France in the hands of the Orleauists, the destiny of Europe would have been entrusted to diplo matists, and Russia would have obtained her ends by this menus, as she has heretofore done. The union of England and France preserves Europe from the disa.4roui effects of Itussan diplomacy. The people of England and France know this, and they very rightly think that this union is a very proper subject for rejoicing, whether the joy is testified at fetes, festivals, dinners, or breakfasts. The union of Eng land and France for the purpose of saving Europe from be coming Cossack, is ono of the events the most pregnant with good consequences to Europe that has happened in the history of the two nations, and it is right to make it a subject of re joicing. Yesterday one of our contemporaries fired a volley of small shot in aid of the attack already made, and again repeated by the heavier ordnance of the Times. Because the word "ban= quet" is made use of in the proposition for a national re union, the propoSal is stigmatised as an intention to inaugu rate the worship and to spread the devotion of the great god " Gluttony." " Stewing the fat turtles and immolating heca tombs of kine" is facetiously stigmatised as a poor method of cementing international amity. The proposers of the inten tion to welcome our French friends are cried down as the would-be initiators of a series of " national" orgies.• The " national" is placed, it must be most particularly remarked, between inverted commas. The - whole animus of the organs of the dynasties peeps out here. Nothing is" national"-but that which is inaugurated by Governments. If the Queen had given a banquet to a certain set of distinguished guests on the oocasion of the union between England and France that, in the eyes of the flunkies who care nothing about nations, but pin their faith on Governments, would have been all very well. But when honest and respectable citizens of the greatest commercial city in the world wish to show their hospitality in like manner, the feast in future is put down as " a guttling and guzzling of a squad of hardened epicures." " The thing is nothing more real and true than a vulgar piece of Mansion-house sen timentalism." "Is this," we are asked, " a time for listening to the cheers of hiccupping aldermen and the bad grammar of civic speecties I" The bad taste as well as the monstrous unfairness of stigmatising the Corporation of London as drunken gourmands and men ignorant of their own language, is so prepost erous th at t h ere is no need to advert to it. No thing could have caused such a display but the most vehement fear. that the eff ec t of the hospitable meetings between mem bers in e e i r t levelled gi difficult The t fv m aal a pis n ha n hen e ac r iet a: a s l attempted s t s o l y n a rt a os k nt e eh of the two na ti ons would be to unite them in such a future to set them a t com i p co erc nim ial e ' r ' c u ia n l d ” er:a o k po in ra gs . tions of our great towns have been and are the strongholds of our nationality. They are a great feature in. the historical life of the nation. They have been the fortresses of English liberty. They have educated Englishmen of successive gene rations to perform all their duties of citizens with a true feeling of their rights and privilegeth. It is unworthy of any Englishman to set down members of these corporations unit ing for the purpose of showing hospitality to distinguished foreigners, as " batches of pursy traders." It may be all very well for Orleanists or members of other bankrupt dynas ties to dread that union between two great nations which will ensure the peace of the world, and prevent the said dynasties from taking advantage of the opportunity which would be given to them in a general scuffle: It may be all very well for such roving royalties td throw dirt upon national demon- strations, and sneer at national institutions, but Englishmen should know and respect what these institutions have done for the country. The flunkeyism of the sneers against trade is a miserable exhibition in a country which has become great, rich, and powerful mainly by trade: We have lived long enough to take Napoleou'f; reproach that we were " a nation of shopkeepers" as something of a compliment. The com merce of the country is one of the great elements of the power of the ,nation—the commercial men are those who are en trusted with the working of this clement—all attempts to frustrate the endeavours made to unite in bonds of amity the French and English representatives of this class must be con sidered as playing into the hands of the enemies of peace.— Daily News. THE BrISSIANISM OF THE TIMES. The Russianism of the Times is often so patent to all, that no one can mistake it ; but, for the most part, it is so stu diously concealed, that those only who thoroughly compre hend the character and conduct of that journal, can detect its latent desire to subserve the interests of the Czar. Illustrations both of the open and covert friendship for the Autocrat have appeared in the columns of our contemporal y within the last two days. On Thursday there was a laboured article, to prove that we ought to do nothing at all in the Baltic, but just content ourselves with looking at the fleet of Russia lying snugly iu Cronstadt or Hclsingfors. Don't, on any account, was the language of the Times, attack any of the Russian forts in the North seas ; nt.r stek to destroy a single ship of the Rtissian squadron, If you do, who knows but you may be beaten, and the result be, that the Russian ships will, in a few days thereafter, pay - a very unpleasant visit to London, Bull, Newcastle, Perth, or Aberdeen. There was something so transparently Russian in this, that every ono who read the article of our contemporary felt as if he had been perusing a string of sentences penned by the Czar himself. The inspiration, if not the very words, doubtl.ss came direct from St. Petersburg. Now just because there exists so intense an anxiety in the Autocratic Mind, that no great naval demonstration should be made by us in the Baltic, we fondly hope that such a demonstration will be made without one hour's unnecessary delay. The Czar knows that a vigorous blow there would be fatal to him, and hence' his profound solicitude that it should not be struck. For that very reason it ought to be struck with energy and at once. So much for the latest illustration of the more manifest friendship of our contemporary for Russia. The illustration to which we allude of the leading journal's covert friendship was afforded in the article yesterday, in which it sought to prevent the carrying out of the happy idea of a National Fes tival, having for its object to unite in terms of closer friend ship, the people of France and England All that a miser able attempt at ridicule could do, our contemporary did before to divert from their purpose those gentlemen with whom the idea originated; but they were men who no more heeded the assaults "of the Times than they would the idle wind as they passed along the streets. To the infinite mortification of our contemporary, the idea is still iu the course of being carried out, and what is more, will be crownel with complete suc cess. And the Russian organ knows full well that it will be so. The article of yesterday was consequently written, not in the hope of defeating it, but in order to give vent to its spite that it has failed to render service to that country, had Mr. Under-Sheriff Anderton's, happy conception been knocked in the head. But, we may probably be asked, how could the Times have rendered a servioe to the Czar by preventing the advent of the intended Festival? In this way, - the object and teudeucy,of the FeEftival are, to bring into the bonds of a closer union the two great European nations. And union between France and England is what Russia, of all things, dreads. Her policy is to keep them severed. It is owing to the cordial union which now happily subsists between them, that she has been defeated in all her plans of aggrandisement. Had any alienation between these two countries existed at the present time, the Czar would have been able, in all pro bability, to carry out those purposes of criminal ambition, on which his heart has so long been set. There is, therefore, no object in which the Czar takes a de -Ter interest, than that of putting an end to the subsisting friendship between the two countries. Consequently, any scheme which is in tended and adapted to strengthen and perpetuate the cordial feeling which now exists between them, must be, to the Czar, the object of alarm and detestation. The attack of yesterday on the National Festival, and the effort to hold up to ridicule those with whom the idea origi nated, was one of the lamest articles of the kind which ever appeared in the columns of our contemporary. It was wholly devoid of point. There not only was no justice in it, but there was not even the semblance of justice. It was feebler even than the first. It was written under an evident con sciousness that it would be labour in vain. More than this : our contemporary virtually, though evidently with great re luctance, admits that the thing is destined to meet with a decided success. "It is clear enough," says the Times, " that, if the popular feeling should run the other way, even those who think these festivities the most ill-timed must needs give way, lest their motives should be misinterpreted." This is an admission that not only is" the popular feeling" running the other way—that is to say in favour of the Festival—but that those who have hitherto stood aloff from the thing, and thrown cold water on it, are now about to give in their ad. hesion. One of the objections of our contemporary to the project is certainly exceedingly odd. The idea originated, it says, " with a small knot of persons." Have not all the greatest plans and projects of which the world ever heard, bad a similar origin? Would the Times ignore or oppose a scheme, simply because it did not occur to a multitude of persons at once? In .that case, we should never have a new project or idea at all. The quality which marks a great idea is, that the moment it is brought before the com munity it strikes the publi.t mind ; and people are amazed that a notion so natural and so excellent, should not have occurred before. That is eminently true of Mr. Under- Sheriff Anderton's project for a grand National Festival, to cement and strengthen the existing friendship between the people of France and England. As soon as the idea was men tioned, we wondered— ever ybody wondered—that it had thenot it._ occurred to somebody before. It instantane ousl y struck public mind; ,and there was a general resp onse to was seen and acknowledged, on all hands , that a more felici tous notion never entered the human mind. Subseri h rt h io e n et s poured in, and so did the names of persons of the respectability, both in the City and t he Nest-end, who g were desirous of giving their sanction to the scheme by being en tered as members of the committee. The Times, in the plenitude o f its mortification that an other illustration has been afforded to England and Europe, of the fact that it has lost the power it once exercised over the public mind, represents the invitation about to be giv en to foreigners, as not the invitation of the people. The Times knows full well that in this it grievously and grossly misre presented the facts of the care. It is where you natioyneall movement. Go you will among the le and hear the idea spoken of in terms of the highest commenda tion. If here and there you meet with a dissentient, you will find, on inquiry, that the reason of his disapproval is of a personal kind. He is in some way or other, in connection with this project, a - disappointed man. There has been as great amount of jealousy imported into the matter. We could, without difficulty, n tree some dozen persons who have sought to defeat the project, because it originated with others, and they therefore could claim no credit in the business. But in despite of all their efforts, chiefly secret, to defeat:Mr. Under-Sheriff Anderton's felici tous scheme, that scheme will meet with success. The Times, as we have already remarked, knows this, and thus tries, in the conclusion of its article, to account for that success on other grounds than those of the merits of the project. "As soon," says that journal, " as the project has gone so far, public men aro solicited, and cajoled into a quasi patronage of a project which they may think never so ill-timed, but they adopt the necessities 91 their position and submit, So 91 901 74 80 791 674 6,4 81 11 1061 6 107 6 :3 13 14 224 2 6 7i A A 39 t.

This is miserable. Surely, no one will expect that we should give a serious answer to such utter twaddle. To what straits must our contemporary be driven for something to say against the National Festival, when he is obliged to resort to anything so feeble as this l 7-Morning .Adrertiser. THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. REDUCTION OP QUEEN'S TROOPS IN INDlA.—Several regiments of foot, stationed in different parts of India, have been ordered home. It is understood their services are required in this country to make up for the absence of the levies with the expeditionary army in the East. THE MINISTER OF WAR'S OFFICIAL RESlDENCE.—Har rington-house, in Whitehall-gardens, at present occupied by the Tithe and Copyhold Commissioners, is to be forth with vacated for the accommodation of the newly-appointed Minister of War, the Duke of Newcastle; and the house of the late Duke of Leeds, in St. James's square, is to be immediately prepared for the accommodation of the Tithe and Copyhold Commissioners. Yesterday the Lords of -the Admiralty gave notice at Lloyd's that two more steamers were required to convey troops and stores on special service. Each must be capabie of carrying 600 tons, and from 180 to 200 men. The pre ference is to be given to screw steamers. The Lords of the Admiralty reserve the right of retaining these vessels over the period for which they may be engaged for three months. The Kangaroo, hired steam transport, with the troops on board, reported on Thursday, left Spithead yesterday for Varna. The depot of the 34th Infantry, which has been stationed at Leeds for some time, has proceeded to Plymouth, to make room for the 4th West York Militia, who are to assemble at the barracks on Wednesday morning next. A party of officers of the Royal Engineers have been engaged during the present week in visiting the various places where picks, pickaxes, spades, shovels, and other tools for military purposes are manufactured for the use of the army, and in sapping and mining, and the raising of fieldworks. The 35th Regiment of Foot assembled on the 17th and 28th of June at Chatham, at a quarter before nine o'clock, and were marched to the Royal Engineer stores, where they were supplied with scaling ladders, and proceeded to Chatham lines. Hero they were instructed in the. best mode of escalading fortifications by Captain Ord, Royal Engineers, under the direction of Colonel Jones, Com mandant and Director of the Royal Sappers and Miners Establishment at that station. The men appeared much pleased with their instruction, and performed their duties with great spirit and rapidity. It is supposed the 35th are now undergoing instruction preparatory to the grand attack and siege operations which are to take place on the lines at Chatham about the middle of July. The second division, consisting o f t wo t roops, of the 15th (King's) Hussars, left Chatham on Thursday morning last, en route for Exeter, to join head-quarters. Captain Smyth's company of the Royal Artillery is to be withdrawn from Ireland; Major Harrison's company to proceed from Dublin to the detached posts in Loughs Foyle and Swilly, and the forts on the Lower Shannon, to relieve Captain Hamilt on ' s com p an y ; C ap t a i n Hamilton's com pany to be concentrated in field batteries at Limerick, to replace Captain Smyth's Company ; Captain Smyth's com pany to proceed to to embark for Liverpool for further proceeding to Woolwich. Oue of the Belfast papers states that the new costume of the British infantry has been hit upon as follows,—a wide or easy-fitting frock coat, " that a soldier might mow in ;" loose trousers, of a dark colour, for all seasons ; a soft elastic stock, and a light low-crowned shako. It is said that the Grenadiers' caps and the Highlanders' plumes are to be totally done away with. So much for the mai oh of improvement in the 19th century. In consequence of the receipt of telegraphic instructions from the Admiralty, the Algiers, 91, Captain Talbot, left the Sound by the Eastern Channel Yesterday evening. She is 100 men short of her complement, and is reported to be bound to Spithead, and to go to the Mediterranean to re lieve the flag-ship Britannia, 120, to come home, and turn officers and crew over to the Royal Albert, 131, screw, which will then go to the Black Sea to receive the flag of Admiral Dundas. The repairs of the Avon steamer having been completed, she sailed yesterday morning in quest of the Russian India man reported to be in the Channel. The Merlin, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, brought down to Woolwich from Deptford yesterday afternoon, is to be brought forward immediately for commissien. In anticpation of bringing the enemy to action, Sir Charles Napier has issued throughouthis fleet the following general orders, to be carried into effect on the signal to engage being given. These regulations were drawn up by Rear Admiral Chads " 1. The established number of full charges to be com pleted after exercises with cartridge. " 2. On going to quarters, unless contrary orders are given, full charges are always to be handed up. " 3. The breechings of all broadside guns to be such a length as to come a foot within the port-sills when taut. " 4. Spare and rigger lines fitted with hand toggles to each gun. " 5. A large supply of wads, cut open, and reduced by an inch for expansion, to each gun. " 6. Quoins to be marked and fitted with lanyards, and made fast round the bed-bolt, to keep them from flying out. " 7. Beds bolted and lashed down to the bolts, to pre vent their displacement. "8. Spare tubes, locks, trucks, breechings, and side tackles. " 9. Reserve cartridge cases to be hung up amidships, two cases not to be taken to the gun if loaded. " 10. All shells to be placed on the opposite side to that engaged. _ " 11. Case shot, grapo shot, fighting lanterns—in fact, everything, should be removed from the ship's side, and placed in the rear of the guns, as near amidships as pos• sible. " 12. Water on all decks, four tubs on each deck, bO - the tanks. " 13. Hammocks and sci : oens for the tops, and three buckets filled, to extinguish fire aloft. " 14. Yards and gaffs to be slung. "15. Spare tiller, tiller ropes, and relieving tackles ready. " 16. Stoppers and dead eyes for securing shrouds and backstays. "17. Axes and tomahawks for cutting away rigging or clearing wreck. "18. Pumps and fire-engines rigged and ready for ser vice. "19. Shells at the quarters, equal to five broadsides, ready. "20. Extra shot should be passed up to complete at least 60 broadsides, and placed in shot grummets as near amidships as possible. It is found that shot can be passed from hand to hand more rapidly and with less confusion than by being hoisted up in nets. "21. Whin the. ship has much heel it is desirable, whether fighting to windward or to leeward, to remove -the near trucks ; this the crews are accustomed to do at their own drills. The weather guns, otherwise, come in too heavily on their own breechings, the lee guns running out after their recoil. "22. Converging lines combined with graduated semi circles on each gangway, or other place, are most essential. The seamen soon uuderstandtheir use. " 23. Night sights for chase guns, dead white, are at times useful. " 24. The long tangent sights for distant firing are to be kept on deck. THE NORTH SEA PILOTS AND THE BALTIC FLEET. It will be in the remembrance of many of our readers, that on the return of the Hecla from her survey of the Baltic, in February last, we dwelt at some length on the inefficiency of the Hull pilots, and of the extraordinary fuss made about the want of accommodation by these grumbling, ignorant, and extravagantly paid individuals. We at such period stated'our belief that the masters of the navy, many of whom went out to survey in the Hecla, did the work which the fussy Hull men (dubbing themselves " North Sea pilots") were incapable of doing, in fact, simply because some few of them had been up to St. Petersburg two or three times. they fancied that our fleet was entirely dependent upon them for its safety. Certainly a little allowance may be made for their conceit, because of the Government ' rush" to obtain their services, and a good deal of their grumbling was stopped by the liberality of Captain Washington. We are now borne out in our remarks at that time by what has since become patent — namely, that the commander-in-chief would as soon have a lot of Marylebone apple-women as these fat and know nothing Hull pilots. The whole and real duty has devolved upon the masters of the Royal Navy. We believe it will not be long before the " pilots" will be sent home as useless lumber. We only hope that the immense amount of consideration required by these men will not limo lost sight of by the Board of Admiralty, and that feel the real pilots, the masters of the Royal navy, will be looked upon with especial favour by the board in a pecu niary sense, for it is to this class of officers that the who le safety of our, splendid war-ships is left, t a a n t d ioli in t with sry onerous duties, coupled with a natural anxiety toacailch u e i i t r themselves creditably in the eyes of their coun t ry , We assured that in acknowledgment of th eir services the coun try would gladly concur that an aug men amount of pay would ben s th om at hortete masterhanwh m at theyuate eve b are en titled to; every one knows where, and that he must study hard to obtain that prac -1 tical knowledge so absolutely necessary for the well-doing of the British naval service. o G ai n c e e r ra n , se a y nd and no te o rs n e l y The Admiralty commenced a good Work when they broke through the old custom of the . .very considerable timew:Laming a more correct to auNorthleave under the hB d e o e demand men of money but a • y savingsa v pilotage ing se fby vast time,emaptl amountot y i, l i n ofg samet h e i r knowledge of the coast and soundings, We trust that for the putting their foot on btehooeafrrtdhseeaab. future we shall hear no more of thesegs. supplementary pilots 7n countenance fl o c man of war, whether in the and upon o g f e t t he su T ffi ri c n i i e t n y t ß ly oa f r a d t the merc r h e a tl n hr t eeny marine, and we ought war in trust of th e i r more na t ura l pilots—th e masters of the f Royal navy.-21forning Herald.

The sport was much better than bad been seen on " Worthy Down" for some years past, and satisfactory proof was afforded, that by confining it to one day, and exercising a spirit of liberality, the secretary, who has the chief management of the affair, had acted very judiciously. We were glad to find that since last year some improve. ments had been made with respect to the telegraph and betting enclosure, and that a determination exists to pro ceed further in the "right direction."

(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) MANCHESTER, June 30.—That upward tendency in prices which a more general demand for yarns and goods gave rise to in the early part of this month, and which was very sensibly felt last week, may be said to have pro ceeded somewhat further in the present week. Spinner° and manufacturers are generally asking rather more than before for their productions, but it is evident that buyers are rendered more cautious by the rise. Although buyers find the market remarkably free f ro m the stocks of the medium and lower counts of yarns, and spinners are mostly well supplied with orders, yet they begin to hesi tate about paying an advance which is now id. told, and in some kinds Id. per lb. upon the late lowest prices ; and there is a similar tardiness in agreeing to a corre sponding addition to the quotations for printing cloths, shirtings, and domestics • but, as there is evidently a growing demand, manufacturers exhibit the greatest 2D.—Wools—The .:itint g y pinners here act w firmnesg. . caJnnutioe np, and the it rices sought übeing beelyT)lnigditnhgeirleaancdh of s i ß th ß u lD ou F s ° l l l l a D l ' The superior c l asses of wools grown are completely Leglected, Southdown and low qualities in Australian being substituted.
