In the House of Commons Mr. FERRAND said it was his intention, shortly after Easter, to call attention to the state of the cotton tra le, and to suggest measures for removing the unemployed operatives.—On going into committee of supply, Mr. COBDEN remarked on the large tumber of obsolete vessels of war in the British navy. The boo. member said that by obsolete be meant wooden vessels. He said that in the present state of things such vessels should never have been built. They were no strength againet the enemy, and if we went to war to-morrow he believed that they would prove inefficacious. He thought that the naval administration of Lord Derby was responsible for £10,000,000 of the £20,000,000 that had been re cently spent on this modern navy, which was quite useless. The hon. member said we could not en dure such extravagance. He called it an insult and an outrage to the common sense of the country to vote so many men far such vessels, and he thought that the house ought to make a greater reduction in the number of men than the Government pro posed this year. Lord C. PAGET declared he still kept the same opinion as formerly with respect to wooden line-of-battle ships, that they would not be very serviceable in a future war. The hon. member was wrong in stating that 30,000 men were required to man the wooden line-of-battle ships ; instead of that number, 9,000 only, were needed. He (Lord C. Paget) thought that Sir J. Pakington's organisation of the navy was one of the wisest measures that had ever taken place in the grand annals of the country, and if the house followed the advice of Mr. Cobden he thought that it would prove very disastrous in its conse quences. Sir J. PAKINGTON said he was surprised at the violent attack which had been made upon him, without any notice that would have given him an opportunity of referring to figures, &c. Ile recommended the hon. member in future to abstain from talking about the navy, for he never appeared before the house to consider this subject without recalling to mind the well known lines— "'Tis a pi ty that charming women Talk of things that they don't understand." The right hon. gentleman concluded his speech amidst loud cheers, by stating that far from feel ing remorse, as the hoe, member (Mr. Cobden) had sa id, he thought he should alway s look back with proud satisfaction to the course he pursued in 1859. Some further discussion ensued, and the subject mietsdwaenr d e dropped ; the re mainder of th e esti mates agreed to. The To bacco Bill was minte ordered to be printed, with the amendments of th e Chancellor of the Exchequer. The other business was disposed of, and the house adjourned. The debate of last night will be read with interest, not for any broad light thrown OR the state of our Navy, but fo r the animus d i sp l ayed throe A n d, fi rs t, we must say that Mr. COBDEN has fallen far short of expectation, for he really advanced nothing new—all his argument being made up of matter expressed over and over again In the course of previous debates and in the press. His speech, how ever well concocted, was after Ail but a hashed- up dish of incongruous ingredients— • *. duly seasoned by pickle extracted from obsolete" old junk. His intention was no doubt very laud able, but not so his conclusions, His animadver sions on the waste occasioned by the s 3 stem pur sued in our dockyards were just, but were devoid of novelty. How indeed could he have shed novelty on a matter so often investigated before but not cor rected, for reasons it were needless now to inquire into. Mr. COBDEN'S proposition to reduce the number of men just voted, seventy-six thousand, may be very wise as a matter of economy, but not so as one of prudence. It is far easier to drill a soldier than to make a seaman—the one may be taught in a month or two, but it will take two or three years to make a good seaman, and even more than that. A soldier may soon learn his steps, but it will take a long time before a sailor gets his sea legs —run aloft, or reef a topsail in a gale of wind. It is not even every smart seaman that can take a weather-earing in a stormy night. But though we may excuse a landsman for going out of his reckoning in hazy weather, yet Mr. COBDEN had better have kept more in soundings than have hazarded so far beyond his depth. He made charges against Sir JOHN PAKINGTON that were quite at sea as to their cor rectness. Indeed, Lord CLARENCE PAGET justified the late Board of Admiralty for their patriotic and praiseworthy endeavours to restore, if not to recon struct, the Navy. To Sir JOHN PAKINGTON belongs the merit of originating the first great iron ship— the Warrior—and in asking Parliament for a vote for that purpose Sir JOHN said that he did not dis guise from the house the fact that the expense would be the greatest ever yet laid out in building a man-of-war. Now, as to reducing the number of men, we think the Admiralty have acted wisely in resisting that proposal, bearing in mind the result of our insane conduct at the end of the great war in discharging the best of our seamen, and so spreading disgust in the service. What was the consequence of that un grateful proceeding ? Why, that most of the prime old seamen so discharged went over to America— took service in their navy—were welcomed with delight, and taug')t the "saucy Yankees" how to capture our English frigates ! Would Mr. COBDEN repeat that suicidal lesson now ? We believe not. He is too patriotic for that, and only hazards opinions beyond his own knowledge, thinking he is consulting the interest of the country. Some things that may appear cheap and economical often turn out to be very dear, and ingratitude to our gallant seamen is one of them, indeed, the dearest economy ever pur chased by a nation whose real salvation depends on her naval power and efficiency. " Our tight little island," which the sailor exulted is while singing in jovial mood, is no longer so safe with our hearts of oak as of old, for now steam supersedes both wind and tide, as iron promises to deal with our wooden walls of glorious memory as relies of the past. And, indeed, the present time, however peace able things may appear, is not so settled as to war rant the reduction of men who have been trained at a heavy cost, and worth ten times their number of landsmen for a naval emergency. Europe is now heaving in commotion though overawed by military force, or restrained by prudent counsel, and it were unwise to reduce a body of men on whom our very safety and independence may depend. With respect to one charge, amongst many, made against the Government of Lord DERBY, we will let Sir JOHN PAKINGTON speak for himself in regard to the Navy :—" The hon. member referred to that Treasury minute which my noble friend re ferred to in his speech, and what did he say as re garded that minute ? He said that the drawing up of that Treasury minute by Lord DERBY'S Govern ment was a good party move.' I repeat that a charge more unfounded was never made in this house. At the time that the committee which drew up that minute was appointed it was a secret committee to consider a matter of mere detailed arrangements for the purposes of the Government, and that committee drew up a report for the instruction of the Govern ment under these circumstances. I found it my duty, in considering the state of the navy in 1858-59, and I proposed to the Cabinet that we should have a very large addition to the amount of the votes to be brought forward for 1859. It was the feeling of the Cabinet that as we were about to call upon the house to vote navy estimates then of an almos' unprecedented character we aaould not be justified unless we had the best and clearest grounds to proceed on. In the arduous position which I then occupied I was not disinclined to make the inquiries, and I drew up papers that required the opinion of the Government; and to obtain this an inquiry was made into the whole of the circumstances upon which we meant to proceed. That paper which followed was drawn up solely for the advice and guidance of the Government. At the time that committee was appointed, and at the time that they made their report,l state broadly and distinctly that it was not the intention of the Administration that that paper should ever go be yond those who ordered that committee. There was not the slightest intention to make it public, and therefore I appeal to the hon. member whether he is just in saying that it was a ' party move." And further on Sir JOHN declared that it was dur ing a subsequent debate on the state of the Navy, when this document was referred to, he said that though it was only meant as a confidential "minute" produced by a committee of four Ministerial mem bers, yet as it:,;was referred to ty Lord C. PAGET, the Government of Lord DERBY had no objec tion to make that paper a public one ; and it was under these circumstances that the "minute" was laid before Parliament. But it was not only Sir JOHN PAKINGTON, but other members, and, among them, Sir CHARLES WooD, who said that Mr. COBDEN, in his anxiety to prove enough, had committed many mistakes—a fault very natural with an advocat e who proves too much, and thus overdoes the thing. One good may result from this re-opening of a question BO impor tant to the nation, that it will now make the Ad miralty s.-t their Board in some better order, a n d,, make our naval administration more ship-shape than it has been in for the last fifty years at least. But in our laudable endeavours for economy, we must take care not to spoil the navy for a halfpenny's worth of tar. The news from Poland by no means con firms the confident anticipations of Rusin officials, or rather the sanguine hopes expressed by them in public. There is good reason to believe that soon after the first outbreak of the insurrec- tion the Russian Government awoke to the percep tion of the danger ; and the course of events ha , certainly not tended to re-assure them. True, tele gram& and despatches continually inform us of the rout of the insurgents, the indifference of the great body of the p eople, the easy triumph of the Russians, and the numbers of the enemy slain and captured. Facts, however, speak differently. Notwithstanding this boasted Russian valour and superiority, a threatened attack on the town of Ka lisch has thrown the Russian garrison into a panic. the infantry guard the gates and the cavalry patr o l the neigh- They are under arms day and night, bourhood. It is scarcely worth while to take such precautions against such insignificant foes. But in truth the Russian soldiers have felt the force of the courage of desperation. The recent victory of LANGIEWICZ at Malogoszaz was not over a few detachments but a force of 4,000 men. The firing lasted from eight in the morning until oue in the afternoon, when the Russians began to disperse, having lost 400 men, and killed, it is said, only 130 of the enemy. The Russians afterwards fell in with the Polish rearguard, consisting of 100 men, who were escorting a train of 32 waggons. The Russians achieved the triumph of routing this small detachment, who fled, leaving, it is said, their most empty waggons behind them. From the selection of the waggons we may presume that this flight was not a very hurried one, as in such a case the lighter waggons would have been more suitable companions ! Now, how does the Russian organ report the affair ? It tells us that the combined bands of LANGIEWICZ and JEZIORAUSKI having encountered the Russian troops were totally de feated ; that all baggage, waggons, and horses fell into the hands of the troops, LANGIEWICZ himself being wounded and taking to flight. The peasants, it continues, seized the flying rebels and surren dered 200 of them. The loss of the Russian army is stated to be inconsiderable. A total defeat is thus, by the stroke of the enchanter's pen, transformed into a decided victory. A trifling success becomes a triumphant achievement, while statements which are entirely fabrications, are made with an air of confidence and precision that might deceive many, were they not found in a Russian despatch. The only foundation to which can be traced the asserted flight of LANGIEWICZ exists in the fact that he has pushed forward at the bead of 5,000 men ; it is not known in what direction, but be has probably the intention of making a bold stroke, having the comm'nd of so large a body of men. His binds ate son tinually reinforced. The eagerness of the young Poles to flock to the revolutionary standard result', it is said, in a perfect exodus from Warsaw towards the camp. No less than 1,200 young men left the city on the Ist, and, although a few were cap tured, by far the greater portion succeeded in elud ing pursuit, The bands of LANGIEWICZ are now becoming daily more organised and disciplined. The rough and untutored peasantry, with no wea pon but scythes, no training but the long course of Russian oppression, have become transformed into armed and uniformed soldiers, profiting by expe rience and animated Ly success. It is not easy for the Russians to annihilate such a band. Defeated in one quarter they will re-appear in an opposite direction ; repulsed in one attack they will return at a more favourable opportunity. Familiar with the country, certain of the favour of the population, they belong to that class of combatants which, as in the highlands of Scotland or the woodlands of La Vendee, always prove so difficult to subjugate. The Russians proved, in 1812, the impossibility of a conqueror profiting by his conquest in the face of an indignant and determined people. How is it they do not learn the lessons taught by their own history ? Time is fighting the battles of the insurgents by augmenting and disciplining their forces, as well as changing what was at first considered a mere local outbreak into a revolution which effects the whole of Europe. The prolongation of the conflict is, on the contrary, against the Russians. It is diminishing their prestige, weakening their authority, and destroying the confidence of their supporters. The CIIAR and his advisers may soon find themselves in the awkward position of President LINCOLN, who vowed to conquer a people he has not been able to subdue, and rushed recklessly into a cruel, and pro fitless war for the sake of subjugating a country whose inhabitants would never willingly submit to his rule. Let the Cabinet of St. Petersburg then take warning in time. The French journals seem to hope much from the recent diplomatic interven tion, which, it is said, NAPOLEON was willing to have pushed a little farther than the English Government were disposed to venture. La France of last night says that M. BILLAULT is going to communicate to the Senate a document recently de spatched by the French Government to Sr. Peters burg. The reply of the (CZAR to this communica. tion is daily expected, and it is hoped that its tom will be favourable. It is also rumoured in Paris that ALEXANDER 11. intends to issue an ukase, reconstituting Poland. as it was in 1830, with tilt Grand Duke CONSTANTINE as Sovereign. We shall probably learn to morrow the substance of his reply to French intervention. It had need to be com prehensive and liberal to the last degree before it satisfy the excited feelings of the Poles, or allay the suspicions which recent events have re awakened in Europe.

The leading scenes of Miss Braddon's powerful novel will all be reproduced with intensified interest, and the character of the heroine is to be sustained by Miss Amy Sedgwick, who is said to have thrown herself heart and soul into the part, which in that case can hardly fail of be coming one of the most striking in her repertoire. Much care has been bestowed on the mite en scene, and the pro duction of the piece is looked for with much interest, EXTRAORDINARY HIGH TlDES.—Yesterday the morning and evening tides ro-e unusually high. Several wharfs and waterside prem ses were inundated, particularly on the Surrey side of the Thames. At Lam beth several of the b , sements were overflowed, and the contents damaged. The tides, both on the flood and ebb, ran with great rapidity. There being little wind, the collisions w e r e numerous, and the damage extensive. Workmen were a ct i ve l y engaged during the afternoon in constructir.g dame and taking other precautions to pre vent damage should another overflow occur to-day.

Dakin, in St. Paul's Churchyard_ one of the very best situations, it is true, in the whole line —have let their whole window accommodation, I am credi bly informed, for £950. A friend of my own, with zooms in Piccadilly, is lamenting his own folly. "I have window space for 30 people; I have 200 acquaintances who expect invitations. I shall disappoint 170 of them, and if I had only gone out of town I might have got £lOO for my rooms."

If the insurrection is to be suppre.ssed, nothing will remain but to employ a much larger force than hitherto in order effectually to oppose the terrorism of the Polish party of action."

A letter received in Paris yesterday from War saw of the 26th of February states that the Russian Government fear to send treasure from St. Peters burg to Warsaw in consequence of the frequent attacks made by the insurgents on the rail way :rains. The treasury at Warsaw is empty, and the contractors fer the army have been info r m e d th a t the Government cannot give them any money for a long time to come. Tho Marquis Wielopolski is not dead, as reported, but he is seriously ill. On the 26th the Governor brought into the citadel all the boats on the Vistula, to prevent any inhabitant who wished to join the insurgents f rom escap i ng by water. Tho general opinion expreesed in Warsaw is that the Polish insurrection will shortly assume a more favourable appearance. They found their opinion on the fact that Couet Adlerberg, a confi , who brought an Impe drieanltciaolinamdavnisdertoofwthaersCawzarto put an end to the in surrection within 10 days, has not returned to St. Petersburg, but has continued his journey to Berlin and Paris. The Russian authorities appear bewil dered, and as fast as one order is issued a counter order follows it. The most serious fact is, however, that a complete misunderstanding exists between the military and civil autborities. The latter are Poles, and every order issued by the military authorities is communicated to the insurgents. The official bulletins from the seat of war excite general indig nation among the population of Warsaw. They assert that in the best contested engagements with the insurgents only one or two Cossacks were wounded. General Manienkine, the hero of the massacre at the small town of Sicymatieze, has re ceived the decoration of the order of St. Wladimir, and in order to enconarge the soldiers to burn and pillage they received each a silver rouble. Colonel Nostiz, the author of the massacres at Yanow, has been raised to the rank of general. Further reperte of an action in the neighb( urhood of Biala are cur rent. The Russians admit that there are numerous detachments of insurgents well armed and organiza acting on the Bug, and that serious conflicts havt taken place in Lithuania. The rails on the lie, from St. Petersburg to Moscow are taken up it, several places, notwithstanding the numerous patrols employed to pro , t-et the railway. The bridg‘ over the Livik c at L, chow hes been burnt. A d raught of conscripts sen t from Warsaw were brough back lest they should tall into the power of the in surgent. The Polish chiets have changed theia aeries. They now tot m small bands,which are die persed through the country and every where hams: the Russian troops. Several of these detachments are at present in Lithuania, near Byalistock,in the fores of Bialowicz and in the neighbourhood of tlirodno The Russian garrison of Pomasy, near Grodno, war , disarmed by the insurgents. There are likewist several insurrectionary bands in the Government of Plock. Two Russian columns were sent in pur suit of them, but Without success. The officers com manding them, to give a proof , f their activity, plundered all the unarmed villagers, and carried oft with them as prisoners all the landed proprietors and priests. The Warsaw railway has been again cut at the stations of Richysin and Baley. Two bridges have likewise been burnt by the insurgents. POLAND. The following copy of " any correspondence which passed between Lord Clarendon and her Ma jesty's Government in 1856, relating to Poland," was published yesterday:— " No. 1. " THE EARL OF CLARENDON TO VISCOUNT !PAL• MERSTON. " (Received April 17.) " Paris, April 15, 1856. " My Lord,—Since the commencement of the Conferences I have not failed to bear in mind the deep interest which her Majesty's Government have always taken in the condition of Poland, and I have been most anxious to bring that question before the Congress, in order to obtain some expression of opi nion on the subject from that body, or some assur ance from the representatives of the Emperor of Russia that his Majesty intended to adopt a more conciliatory policy towards his Polish subjects. "O❑ the 9th inst., at the request of Count Walewski, I held a conversation with Count Orloff on this subject. I said that the condition of Poland had been discussed, and in future organization de termined, by the Congress of Vienna, and that the present Congress could not view the ques tion with indifference; but that, to the best of my belief the Poles would be tolerably well satisfied if national institutions were restored to them, if their religion were respected, if they were allowed to use the Polish language, and if all their children were educated at Polish schools, instead of, as now, a limited number of them only at Russian schools. I suggested at the same time to his Excellency that he should volunteer some assurance to this effect, or should be prepared to declare it in answer to a ques- tion put to him by the Congress. "Count Orloff replied that the Emperor had de termined to restore to his Polish subjects everything I had suggested, but that the announcement could not be made to the Congress, as that would be mis represented in Russia, and his Imperial Majesty would be thought to have yielded to foreign pres sure, which would deprive him of the grace of the spontaneous acts he meant to perform. " Count Orloff said to me in a friendly manner, Do not, in the interest of the Poles, bring the sub ject forward i❑ the Congress, for I can tell you nothing there, nor admit your right to interrogate me. My answer, therefore, must be disheartening to the Poles, and the Emperor may perh.aps think it a matter of dignity to postpone what he intends to " I said that the question seemed to rest between a voluntary declaration on the part of the Emperor to the Congress, or a proclamation at some future period to Poland, and that I thought that the for mer would be the more gracious course, and at the same time be advantageous to the Emperor as an ear n 2st to Europe of the policy which his Majesty in tended to adopt; and I urged that such a declara tion could not be derogatory to his Majesty's dig nity, nor lead to misinterpretation. " Count Orloff answered that, knowing as he did, the Emperor's view respecting Poland, he had de termined not to write to his Majesty on the subject, but that he would make known by telegraph what I had then suggested. " His Excellency yesterday, in answer to my in quiry respecting the answer he had received from St. Petersburg, informed me that he must decline to make any declaration respecting Poland. He said that the Emperor had determined to do every thing that had been suggested, and that the amnesty would be comprehensive, but that he wished to signalise his coronation by these and other acts of grace, and that their good effect would be destroyed if his Majesty's intentions were declared beforehand. His Excellency repeated that, if I persisted in bring ing the matter before the Congress, he should be compelled to give an unfavourable answer, and to say that foreign intervention would probably lead to a postponement or a diminution of the favours which his Majesty meant to bestow on his Polish sub jects. "Under these circumstances Count Walewski and I have agreed that the more prudent course would be not to bring forward the question in the Con gress.—l have, &c., " CLARENDON." " No. 2. " VISCOUNT PALMERSTON TO THE EARL OF CLARENDON. "Foreign-office, April 17, 1856. "My Lord,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your lordship's despatch of the 15th inst., reporting your conversations with Count Walewski and with Count Orloff on the question of Poland, and I have the honour to acquaint your lordship that her Majesty's Government entirely vprove the coulee pursued by you, both in bring ing the subject into discussion with Count Orloff, end in abstaining, in consequence of what Count Orloff said, from mooting the matter in the Con gress.—l have, &c., " PALMERSTON." MEXICO. The following absurd circular has been addressed by Mr. Walsham to Mr. Glennie, her Majesty's Consul for the city of Mexico, upon his being left in charge of her Majesty's Legation : " Mexico, Jan. 20, 1863. " Sir,—l beg to inform you that I have taken charge of her Majesty's Legation, Sir C. Wyke having determined to avail himself of the leave of ab ence which was granted to him some months ago by her Majesty's Government. "Yon will understand that, except as regards my own Government and officers in her Majesty's service, I have no official duties to perform in this country; unofficially, how ever, I shall be most happy at all times to assist British subjects to the best of my ability ; but I hope that they will recollect that we are now witnesses of what is far frcm a normal state of things, and will not, therefore, consider that I am acting in opposition to their wishes if, from force of circumstances, I am unable at once to aid them as they may desire in any particular case brought to my notice. "While upon this point I am sure they will not take it amiss if I venture to remark that I cannot look upon their conduct towtrds Sir C. Wyke as having been either cour teous or generous. I refer, I need not say, solely to those who, especially of late, have adopted a hostile attitude in regard to her Majesty's Minister, and not to the English in the country generally. " Sir C. Wyke has, I can assure them, on many occasions gone out of his way to do them a service, and I may ad that but for his presence here during the past few months Englishmen would have suffered far more than they reall y have done. His conduct, it should also be remarked, has been entirely approved by hot. Majesty's Government, and consequently when calling in question that conduct they should not lose sight of this fact, " I trust, therefore, that during Sir C. Wyk3's absence I may net have any more of complaint on this head, and I think if I state that both on public and private grounds I at all events, have the highest respect for her Majesty's Minister, my countrymen will not let me make this request in vain. " I have no wish of course to interfere with their free right to hold whatever opinion they may consider proper. All I ask is, that when expressing their opinions they will do so in such terms as the high position of Sir C. AVyke both de mands and merits. " On their own account, I should imagine they would be cautious in their :anguage and conduct at the present mo ment; still, I may inform them that her Majesty's Govern ment are desirous of maintaining a strict neutrality in the war between France and Mexico, and would view with dis pleasure any infringement of such neutrality on the part of English residents here. " I have only, then, to repeat what I have said above, that, should any of her Majesty's subjects have occasion to apply to me for assistance, I will do whatever I can for them c , ,nsistently with the unofficial position which I now oc cupy in Mexico." VERDICT OF JURIES. —A case was he ar d yeater lay at t he Secondaries Courtin which a suggest i on was made before the jury retired to take th e ver di ct of the majority, instead of keeping them locked up until all agreed. The action was brou g ht i n trover to recover som e articles, and judgment was allowed to go in default. Mr. Lawton for the plaintiff called witnesses, as did Mr. Shep herd, w h o appeared as counsel fo r th e d efendant, and de signated the action which bad been brought in one of the superior courts as a trumpery affair. The jury being about to retire, Mr. Lawton said he was willing to take a verdict of the majority. Mr. Shepherd said he was quite willing to act on the suggestion to save the jury any further trouble. The jury wished to retire, saying that they did not know on which side the opinion of the majority was inclined. After being absent some time the Foreman, on their return, said the opinion of the majority was for one farthing on one count, and half-a-crown on the second count. An applica• tion was made for a certificate on the part of the plaintiff for costs, which was refused. The fees of the trial were £l9e, by the plaintiff, ad 68. by the defendant. , c - N Cart " ttrtular F. ,t HER MAJESTY. WINDSOR CASTLE, March 5.

THE MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES.— Two NEW ACTS OF PARLIAMENT.—Yesterday two Acts of Parliament connected with the approaching royal marriage—the first of the session—were printed. The first act is in reference to the annuities granted to the Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra of £40,000 and £lo,ooo—to commence from the day of the wedding. The Queen is empowered to grant an annuity of £30,000 to the Princess Alexandra in the event of her royal highness sur viving the Prince of Wales. The annuities are charged on the consolidated fund. The second new statute is appli cable to bills of exchange and promissory notes payable in the metropolis to-morrow, the 7th inst. The preamble recites, "It is intended that H.R.H. the Princess Alexan• dra of Denmark shall pass through the metropolis on her arrival in England on the 7th March, and it is apprehended that on this occasion there will be so great a concourse of people as to materially interfere with the transaction of business." It is enacted that the provisions of the 7thand Bth Geo. IV., c. Ib, and 6th and 7th Wm. IV., c. 58, with respect to bills of exchange and promissory notes payable in the metropolison fast-days, &c., are to extend to bills and notes payable on the 7th March. The metropolis, for the purpose of this act, is to be the same as defined by the sta tute for the better management of the metropolis. The Sheriff's Court and Secondaries court will be closed on Saturday (to-morrow), and on Tuesday (the day of the wedding) the former Court certainly, and the latter, so far as is compatible with the int eres t s o f th e L aw Courts. The legal profession in the City will have a general holiday on both days, We understand that it is in contemplation to open the theatres gratis to the public on the night of the marriage of the Prince and Princess of Wales. THE ORETO CHASED.--A letter dated Key West, Feb. 11, says—" The gunboat Sonoma, Commander Stevens, arrived at this port on Saturday night from a cruise in the Gulf in search of the Florida. She left this harbour a fortnight ago, and on the Ist inst., while passing over the Bahama Banks, on her way to Nassau, discovered at 7 o'clock in the morning, while entering the Queen's Channel, a strange sail, which upon nearing hoisted English colours. Immediately (suspecting her character) Captain Stevens ordered a full head of steam, and, with all sail set, started in pursuit, supposing her to be the Oreto. Scarcely had the stranger hoisted her colours when she altered her course, to the north ward and westward, made all possible sail, and commenced firing up rapidly, The Sonoma boat to quar ters, anticipating she would soon be in range of her guns, and followed her, with varying success, for 24 hours, through the Queen's Channel, the tongue of the ocean, and north-east Providence Channel, 125 miles to sea, losing sight of her on Monday night, Hole in-the -Wall then nearing west, south-west. There is no doubt that the speed of the Oreto under steam is exaggerated, for while the wind was light and the sea smooth the Sonoma gained gradually but surd ) upon her. Upon getting, however, into the open sea, and the wind freshing and the waves increasing, the Oreto rapidly drew away, until, night coming on, she was lost sight of. For 24 hours the crew were at quarters, anxiously awaiting the order to open fire; but three times, while the Oreto's capture teemed almost a certainty, some derangement in the Sonoma's machinery interfered in her favour, until, after chasing her for 34 hours, a distance of over 300 miles, she succeeded in making her escape. When lase seen she was steering to the eastward, possibly with the intention of making one of the windward passages. Had the Sonoma possessed the necessary qualifications of a sea-going vessel, the capture of the Oreto would have bean an accomplished fact, and her destruction inevitable. As some solace to their disappoint went, next morning they captured the barque Springbok, with a valuable cargo of contraband goods, from Fal mouth, England, bound into Nassau. This prize Cap rain Stevens sent to New York for adjudication. Her Britannic Majesty's ship, Galatea, Captain M‘Gu.re, from Havannah, arrived in our harbour on the 6th inst., and remained until yesterday, when she sailed for Nassau. The usual salutes were exchanged between the ship, the fort , and the admiral's fl ags hi p. A not h er pr i ze has been added to our long li s t b y t h e arr i val of the sc h o oner Margaret, with a miscellaneous cargo of contraband goods. She was captured by Admiral Bailey's last improvised man-of-war the Two Sisters, herself a late prize, and nowr doing good service in. watching the Quioksaud Passage. _ Dr. Colenso's Reply to ... he Acicirt 3ss of the Bishops. Subjoined is the answer which the Bishop of Natal has made to the address the frt. - ma arch bishops and bishops of the Church of iting land and Ireland, inviting him to terminate the d ifficulty experienced by the prelates in reference to hie published volume on the Pentateuch by irotiVi n g from the Episcopate : " To HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY. "My Lord Archbishop , — I have seriously con sidered the address which .ts been forwarded to me by your grace, signed by a b -reat number of the archbishops and bishops of the Chn:ch of England . "Ia reply, I feel obliged to say that t am un able to comply with the suggestion therein conveyed to me, that I should resign my episcopal charge. "I trust that I yield to none of your lordships in a heartfelt reverence for the Holy Scriptures ; but certainly I do not believe, as the words; of the address seem to imply that your lordships' do be lieve, that all our hopes for eternity rest' on th e literal historical truth of such a narrative as th e scriptural account of the Noachian Deluge. " But I must refer to my books for a statement or the reasons which justify to my own mind the course' which lam taking. To resign my office would be to admit that my conduct has beenlegally or mortal,' wrong, which 1 am very far from feeling. " Rather I am persuaded that my duty to Goa and the National Church, through which I hays received, in the same manner as your lordships, that episcopal commission which we have no power of abdicating, requires ma to persevere in the task which I have undertaken namely, to set before the English Church the real facts of the case in regard to the composition of the Penta teuch, in accordance with the most trustworthy results of recent criticism. "I venture to add that the progresss of true reli• gion appears to me to be grievously impeded in thin country by the contradictions which undeniably' exist between the traditional notion of the histori cal truth of all the narratives contained in the Pen' Wench, and the conclusions of science, as novi brought within the comprehension even of the youth of both sexes by the general extension of education. " And it is my firm conviction that this subject deserves more than any other at this time our most serious consideration, and, if possible, our united action as bishops of the National Church.—l am, my Lord Archbishop, your Grace's very faithful and obedient servant, " J. W. NATAL. "London, March 5, 1863." Police Regulations for the Royal Procession.
