WOLVERHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY.—The first important meeting of the ironmasters of South Staffordshire, East Worcestershire, and Shropshire, for the quarter, was held in the Corn Exchange of this town to-day ; and owing to circumstances—some of which were of an un usual character, such as the visit of Lord Ingestre upon his election canvass—was most numerously attended. There was scarcely a firm comprised within the district unrepresented. We stated a fortnight ago that at the preliminary meeting held in Birmingham the advance of 20s. per ton, which had taken place upon manufactured iron during the last quarter, was determined upon as the governing price for the ensuing quarter, and that it was likely to be maintained at the then following quarterly meetings. The prediction has been, by the tone of the market to day, perfectly correct. It was understood by all parties that no advance should take place, and that existing prices should be maintained. Upon inquiries made of the leaning ironmasters of the district, we ascertained that the demand for iron was extremely brisk—that the books of the first firms of South Staffordshire were full of orders—and that, owing to the state of our foreign relations in the East, parties who would otherwise be disposed to order, as well as those by whom such orders, if given, would be required to be executed, were alike disinclined to extend business at existing quotations. So far the state of the iron trade is co i ns ro i dn d ss e ht r io e rn d ee. satisfactory. There are, however, besides th e demand for iron, other causes which lead to the maint enance of present' prices. There is a great and Thes a e great stiil eater ire swant requirements ofha c s7urtchityStoat ffor the last two we e k s been aggravated ravated by the state of the r e e a q t ure l fo in r weather, which h as l ed to much inconvenience in the iron districts.

LAKE BATHURST GOLD MINING COMPANY.—A meet ing of the scripholders of the Lake Bathurst Gold Mining Company was -held yesterday afternoon, to receive a statement from the committee appointed to investigate the affairs of the undertaking. It appeared that an attempt had been made to open negotiations with the directors, but without success, various excuses having been urged in order to create delay. It was therefore proposed that a resolution should be adopted empowering the committee to take legal or other proceedings for the protection of the interests of the shareholders. On this a lengthened dis cussion ensued, and, contrary views having been ex pressed, no definite result was arrived at. In the course of the proceedings an opinion from counsel was read, to the effect that the promoters and directors are severally responsible for the part they have takeu f,r::la tion of the Conipany, and that allottees can. recover in full the amount of their deposits. LONDON, THURSDAY.EVE INDIA AND CHINA, We have just received, in anticipation of the Overland Mail, our letters and papers from India and China, in continuation of our telegraphed despatch from Trieste of the 9th, which we pub lished on Tuesday. Accounts from Burmah continue contradictory ; according to some, the daooits were disappearing and confidence being gradually re-established, whilst others state that we are on the eve of another and a defensive campaign. The only certain facts appear to be, that the King himself, having more to lose than any one else, dreads the resumption of hostilities, and endeavours to maintain peace, but that there is a strong war party at Ava, headed by the King's younger brother, Meng-dat-Meng, which is in communication with the various dacoit chiefs in our territories, and that the latter, either from a diminution of their numbers, or from the ex haustion of the country, or from motives of defence, have discontinued their depredations in many dis tricts, and are concentratinc , at particular points. Moung-young-gye and another dacoit chief, with a force amounting, it is reported, to 10,000 men, having stockaded himself near Meaday, while Moung Beau, with another large force, is in the jungles near Pegue. The number of these dacoits is probably grossly exaggerated, but there is no doubt but they are strongly stockaded at the parts mentioned, and that they must be dislodged and dispersed before the settlement of the country can be considered complete ; and, under such circum stances, rumours of war. are naturally very pre valent. A letter from Promo -says There is a report that the Burm e s e h ave collected 140,000 armed men, with whom they are going to attack us in the course of next month. The following igh from the Rangoon Chronicle of the 19th of Novem ber : " Meng-dat-Meng, the fighting Prince, is to move from Ava with a very large force on the 20th of Decem ber, on which day the ball is to be opened simultane ously at several places. Chiefs with nard names have been appointed governors of Bassein, Dallah, Tonghoo, Shooay, Gien, and Martaban, and Pegue and Syriam ; while the governorship of Rangoon has been conferred upon Moong-young-gye, who has promised to drive out the English, and was said to be at Tharawaddy with a force of 10,000 men, but, according to later accounts, had stockaded himself, together with another dacoit chief, near Meaday.' A letter from Rangoon, in the Calcutta Morn ing Chronicle, dated three days later (November 21st), says : " Reports have just come in that Pegu has been re taken by Moung Beau (or some such name). Captain Nuthall was despatched yesterday evening, about nine o'clock, with 90 of his Light Peguers." These reports are not generally credited, either at Calcutta or Bombay. It is thought that the war party at Ava have neither men nor money at their disposal for even an attempt towards carrying out such plans. The operations against the Affredees between Peshawur and Kohat, have been successful. They had persisted in closing the pass, though we paid their chief blackmail for keeping it open. It was therefore resolved to occupy the defile with a line of posts, and to build a fort in the middle of it ; for this purpose a strong force was despatched from Peshawur, portions of which blockaded both ends of the valley, in which the principal Affredee vil lages were situated, while the remainder protected the workmen employed in building the fort. The Affredees attempted to break through at one end, but were driven back, and a few days after the valley was invaded, and their villages and stores of grain destroyed. The latest news is that they have been starved into submission, and had come into the Commissio ner ' s cam p an d entered into engagements for good behaviour in future. What such engagement are worth remains to be seen, but it is thought that the new fort will pre vent our communications with Kohat from being again interrupted. The force at Peshawur, though still called only a garrison in the Army List, is rapidly assuming the calibre of an army of obser vation. From a list recently published in the Lahore Chronicle, it appears that the strength of force is as follows :—lnfantry—European, 2,700 ; Natives, 7,100; total, 9,800. Cavalry—regular, 450 ; irregular, 2,000 ; total, 2,450. Artillery— Horse, 400 men and 24 guns ; foot ditto and moun tain trains, 700 men and 24 guns ; total, 1,100 men and 48 guns ; and 100 sappers and miners ; altogether, 13,250 men and 48 guns, a force, it is remarked, sufficient to sweep Affghanistan from the Kyber to Khorassan and back again. In the event of a Russian war, it is re ported that the Peshawur force will be aug mented to an army of observation, which will be placed under the command of Lord Frederick Fitzclarence. The means of so augment ing it are close at hand, as it appears from an offi cial document, lately published by the Bengal Go vernment, that there are at present 60,000 troops in the Punjab, and the whole of them, with the exception of a weak brigade at Mooltan, are massed at large stations along the Lahore and Peshawur road The Bengal Government has published a report on the administration of the Punjab for the years 1849-50 and 1850-51, which contains agreat mass of most valuable statistical and geographical informa tion. From this document it appears that in the years 1849-50 the Punjab yielded a revenue of 1,348,0001., while the civil expenditure was only 828,000/. ; and that in 1850-51 the revenue was 2,519,0001.. and the cost of administration 872,0001. This calculation is, however, exclusive of the cost of the 50,300 fighting men quartered in the Pun jab ; their pay alone amounting to 1,650,0001. per annum ; but a very small portion of this frontier defence of the empire can fairly be charged on the Punjab, and the surplus of the revenue over the administrative charges would certainly more than pay for the augmentation of the army that has taken place in consequence of the annexation of the Company's Sutlej territories. The last eastern mail brought us China news to the 11th of November. At Amoy and Shanghai fighting was going on as usual. The insurgents in possession of the latter place had discovered a large quantity of treasure which had been concealed by the late authorities •, they were making use of it in hiring and arming European vessels, so that there will now be a mercenary fleet on both sides. A Mr. Reynolds, who was taking a cargo of munitions of war to the insurgents, was lately captured by the Imperialists. His crew were decapitated, and he would himself have shared the same fate had not the Europeans employed in the Imperialist fleet threatened to resign in a body unless he was released. He has accordingly been permitted to return to Shanghai. For the last two months there has been no au thentic news from the seat of war in the north of China ; it is rumoured, however, that an irruption of Mogul Tartars has taken place ; that 270,000 of them had been levied, and had crossed the frontier; and that 70,000 of these had marched southward and had nearly penetrated to Nankin. If this re port be correct, the proOpects of the Celestial Em pire are altogether changed, for the Mogul hordes are probably little altered since the days of Gengis Khan ; and the insurgents' style of fighting is far too timid to have a chaiice of success against such opponents. Lord Dalhousie's reinstatement of Outram at Baroda, though confirmed by the Court of Di rectors, has not yet been carried into effect. The Bombay Government has recently made a most illadvised and ineffectual attempt to injure Colonel Outram in the opinion of the Governor-General. It appears that during the height of the Baroda in trigues documents came into Colonel Outram's hands which he forwarded to the Bombay Govern ment, with the request that they would endeavour to discover their authenticity and origin, but he did not mention that (as subsequently appeared by a comparison of dates) he had himself at the time of writing a clue to both ; tuis reserve(for which Out ram subsequently gave reasons, which the Gover nor-General considers satisfactory) was construed by the Bombay Government into a charge of false hood and duplicity ; and they communicated their views to Lord Dalhousie's Government by means of a despatch, appending thereto—which is quite un usual in such cases—the minutes of Lord Falkland and his members of council on the matter, in which Outram's character was very roughly attacked. The vindictive character of the whole pro ceeding elicited (as might have been ex pected) a most severe reprimand from the Go vernor-General, who expressed himself perfectly satisfied with Colonel Outram's explanation. The general remark at Bombay regarding Outram's rein statement is, ' It is a very plucky thin g o f him to g o o i e rbeackr and to I Baroda; have been willeheen surprised certainlyto hearbei s poisoned re_ mark, not only from Colonel Outram's partisans, but from grave and reverend seigniors high in the civil service, who are no friends of his, and have all along been disposed to take the part of Lord Falkland in the quarrel. If there are any real grounds for such apprehension; the annexation of the petty State of Baroda should no longer be post poned. Au affair is now under investigation by the police, which will prove that, in spite of re. peated and recent warnings, the corrupt connection between the Baroda Government and i 2te Bombay Secretariate is still kept up. Apreci,s of -the Baroda scandals of the last twelve years had, been pre ferred by the secret department' of the :latter esta blishment, for the information, I bell we, of the Bengal Government. It was very v c 'luminous, weighing nearly nine pounds, and it w ae; supposed that a copy of the correspondence rela Ling to the transfer of Baroda from the Bombay to . the Bengal Government, and Outram's reinstates rent (which was also in preparation), would be de *patched to Lord Falkland, then at the hills, and er the same cover. The latter correspondence was: what the Baroda agents wished to obtain, but it v as put up in a separate cover, and, by mistake, t hey inter cepted the precis only. Both packets sv ere posted at Bombay, but only one reached its destination. An inquiry was instituted ; the driver of the mail cart declared most circumstantially that th e missing packet had dropped into the water and sunk while being conveyed fro m th e car t t o ti Le s t eamer . A similar packet was prepared and thrown into the water in the driver's presence, but could not be persuaded to sink. The driver was then remanded, and locked up till he confessed that he was in the service of a Parsee attorney's clerk com to cted with the Baroda Khutput agency at Bombay ; that his master had directed him to obtain service under the mail contractor, and, while acting as - the driver of the mail-cart, to intercept a packet iespatched on a certain day from the Secretarate, anad enclosed in green wax cloth (the distinguishing mulrk of the despatches addressed to the Governor)) ; lie had done so accordingly, but, (masking the packet to his master, had been told it was the rrong one, and directed to burn it ; he had taken it; away and buried it in his garden, where, on his in formation, it was discovered by the police. His m aster, the Parsee, has been apprehended, and is 11( xlv in con finement. The latest news from Baroda is that. the Gui cowar's Minister had had a British subject, a native of Ahmedabad, seized and flogged (300 lashes) for having expressed his satisfaction at; Colonel Outram's reinstatement. The acting resident had taken up the affair. You will remember that about 18 months ago Mr. Otway moved in the House of Co mmons for copies of certain records of the Bombay Govern ment, known as "Dhabegee Papers," and contain ing the proceedings of a committee appointed to investigate the proceedings of the Baroda Durbar and its Bombay agent, Dhabegee Dhageha, in brib ing the subordinates of the Bombay Secretariate. The papers were ordered to be printed, t .ut it was said at the time that the Court of Directc .rs would contrive to evade the orders, and they have hitherto succeeded in doing so. I have recently obtained a copy of the minutes of evidence taken bofore the committee in question, and I find the case a very much stronger one than I had supposed. I believe that, were these documents published in an unmutilated state, there would be little diffe rence of opinion regarding the expedienzoy of de posing the native dynasty of Baroda. Such an example would certainly do more towards the sup pression of Khutput than all the reports and. minute writings of all the Governments of India. The - greatest activity prevails in - ire Bombay army. Lord Frederick Fitzclarence has assembled a camp of instruction at Poonah ; he has instituted military schools for officers and men, offered prize medals to all three arms for firing at a mark, has ordered examinations of officers in their duty on their promotion to each grade, and altogether by his personal activity and thorough knowledge of detail is doing more towards raising the efficiency of the army to its utmost than any other Indian Commander-in-Chief has done for 20 years. The railway and the electric telegraph are at-. tracting many native chiefs from the interior to Bombay. The young Holkar has just been here incognito, and we have now encam p e d o n th e island, with 2,0 00 of his followers, the Rajah of Dhar— Rao Jeswunt Powar, a Rajpoot chief with a revenue of about 65,0001., but principally remarkable for being the head of the great family of Powar, of which (as antiquaries suppose) Porus, the antago nist of Alexander, was a member. He has been admiring the gunnery practice of the Indian navy, the war-steamers now ready for launching in the dockyard, the steam machinery of the Factory and Mint, and, above all, the railway, and will return to his capital impressed with a high idea of the arts and resources of the British in India. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. REPORT ON THE STATE OF THE BOMBAY MARKETS FROM Nov. 28 TO DEC. 13, 1853. We have little change to note in the money-market since the date of our last report. Money is still obtain able on the same terms as have ruled during the last few months, and there has been little demand during the past fortnight. We have again to quote a fall in the value of Government securities, owing principally to ad vices of the rate in Calcutta have receded nearly to par, influenced by a report that the Government would be unable to carry out their scheme for conversion of the 5 5 per Cent. Loan into 4 per cent. stock. The rumour does not seem to be well founded, but some large parcels of stock having been brought forward for realisation the market has not rallied from the depression. Since the departure of the mail on the 28th of last month, although sales have been effected to a consider able amount, they have been mostly forced, and at unre munerative prices. The goods chiefly in request are gray skirtings under 71b., gray jaconets, and Madapol lams. Cotton.—Since the departure of last mail, transactions in cotton have been chiefly confined to native shippers. In consequence of last accounts from China and England being rather favourable holders here have advanced the price to 96r. to 97r. per candy for Broach, Jumbooseer, and Surat, and 95r. per can d y for Dhollera. - Freights have remained steady during the fortnight— to London at 31. to 31. 2s. 6d., to Liverpool 21. 17. 6d. to 31., to China 16r. to 17r. per candy. Exchange, owing to the small demand for bills on England, arid many credits having come from China, begins to look up. The Commercial Bank draws at 2s. 14d., and the best local draughts sell at 2s. 1 3-16 d. to 2s. 21d., at six months' sight. On Calcutta rupees 99g ; on China, 235 rupees per $lOO at 60 days' sight.

The Bentinck steamer arrived on the Ist inst., with London dates to the 24th of October, containing gene rally unfavourable commercial intelligence, and particu larly so as regard indigo. We have no alteration to make in our last estimate of the new crop, which, we still think, will be some where about 1,07,000 maunds. Th etransactions in sugar have been, as may be supposed, very limited, and holders are now willing to submit to a considerable reduction of their previous demands ; the stock in the bazaar is estimated at about 20,000 bags. An active demand still prevails for hides at unaltered prices. Shipments of linseed-to Great Britain have not been so extensive as before, but an average quantity has gone on to America. Jute continues in active demand at full prices. Raw silk, lately in such high favour, is now rather avoided, and the offer of a reduction of 8 to 10 annas per seer is insufficient to tempt shippers to continue their opera tions in the article. Corahs are also partially neglected. Saltpetre, though rather checked by the rise in freights, is in good demand at a further advance of 2 to 4 annas per md. The slackness which appeared in our market for cot ton goods a little before the departure of the last mail has not, we regret to say, been removed, the inquiry from the Agra Presidency being still moderate. Scotch fabrics are more buoyant. In mule twist, ordinary low and middling 20's, 30's, and 40's are in less re quest, while 50's to 100's are in demand with some what better rates. Turkey red yarns are only in li mited demand, but prices are well supported. During the last few days copper has declined, in consequence of TING, JANUARY 12, 1854. the inquiry from the upper provinces having fallen off. Iron maintains its position, and holders of the metal are very firm. Spelter, lead, and tin plates are without re port of sale. Money continues abundant, and the demand for ac commodation fair. The share market remains very firm. During the last week a slight panic, created by appre hension regarding a rupture with Russia, occurred in the bazaar. The Four per Cents. fell nearly to par ; but at the close of the week confidence began to return. Our quotationslnow are :--106-12 to 107-0 Remittable 5 per Cent. Loan ; 101.6 to 101-8 Company's rupee Fours ; 100-4 to 100-8 sicca rupees ditto'; 102,4 to 102.8 remain. ing Five per Cents. ; those to be paid off are quoted at 101-8 to 101-10. Bank of Bengal slimes stand at 6,375-0 to 6,400-0. New Oriental Life Insurance shares at 400.0 to 410-0. India General Steam Company 650-0 Bengal Coal Company 1,100.0. The directors of the Agra Bank have proposed to the proprietors to increase their capital from 63,64,500 r. to 70,00,000 r. This bank is doing an excellent and safe business and its credit is daily increasin,g, with the public ; its shares can now with difficulty be obtained at nearly 50 per cent. premium, which, however, we think too high a price. Exchange with Great Britain has been very steady for the past week or 10 days at 2-01 to 2.1 credits, and 2.1 to 2-1 to 2.4 documents. Bank of England post bills at • sight 2-0. On China, with opium documents, 239-0 per 100 dollars. A considerable rise has taken place in the rates of freight since the date of our last report. We now quote to London-41. 7s. 6d. to 41. 10s. saltpetre, sugar nomi nal, 51. rice, Si. ss. oil seeds, 41. 17s. 6d. to Si. jute, 51. to Si. ss. hides. To Mauritius-2r. 2a. per bag for grain.

The intelligence of the rebellion and disturbances by this mail is of a more interesting and exciting nature than we have been able to communicate for some time past, giving the progress of the rebels north, an attack on Shanghai, and recapture of Amoy. Our advices from Shanghai are to the 20th inst. The reinforcements of the Imperial naval force, noticed in our last, induced the Imperialists to make a general attack on the city with the com bined forces on the 10th inst. They succeeded in capturing two of the rebel fleet, purchased from foreigners, and several junks, but were vigorously repelled by the rebels on the land side and with great loss. Being unsuccessful in their land attack and un able to capture the batteries on shore, the crews of the Imperial junks landed up the river, and com menced pillaging the neighbourhood and setting fire to the houses, which led to the destruction of a considerable portion of the south-eastern suburbs. Much valuable property and treasure was seized and carried off, after which the force retired, and since no important attack has been made. A disagreeable collision, however, has taken place between the Imperial troops and the guard and volunteer corps. Late on the evening of the 14th 400 to 500 Imperial troops entered the British settlement to intercept some guns about to be con veyed, it was said, to the rebels, and were disco vered by the guard of her Majesty's ship Spartan, which, with the volunteer corps, who promptl y assembled, drove them out. Two of the Imperial troops were killed, and several wounded. Her Britannic Majesty's Consul complained to the criminal judge and commander of the forces. A reply was received in explanation, which has not been published mentioning the circumstance, but stating that the troops were repulsed by a party of rebels dressed as foreigners, and that they did not fire, fearful that some real foreigners might be shot or hurt. This is perfect Chinese diplomacy. This affair places the settlement in a somewhat critical position, and has led to a notification from her Britannic Majesty's Consul to the British commu nity, dated the 17th inst. The insurgents in the city are said to be short of provisions, and, as no sympathy is shown towards them by the rebels, some crisis similar to that of Amoy may be antici pated ; and, if Shanghai be retaken, fearful ven geance will be dealt out to the men in the city. Canton keeps quiet, but a large force has been sent to Tong-Koon, not far distant, where vigorous resistance has been shown to the Government, which will have some difficulty in quelling the dis turbance. The accounts of the insurgents to the south-west mention that the capital of Hopih had been retaken by them, with great slaughter, and the district disturbed, and that the rebels were investing the capital of Oonam, which resisted their efforts before. Trade is looking more encouraging at Canton, and, but for the state of political matters, would go on improving. Exchange has alien to ss. I d., and at Shanghai to 6s. 3d. The import of bullion from all quarters since May may be estimated at about $8,000,000 value. The mail of the 24th of September arrived on the 12th inst. ; the Bth of October mail keeps out. The tidings of the northern insurgents is impor tant. The Pekin Gazettes were received at Shang hai down to the 10th, and some say to the 11th of October. We forward particulars from the North China Herald. We mentioned in our last that Tae-Ping's northern army had taken Peng-Yang in Shan-see, and had passed eastward of Hung-tung. We have no news of its having proceeded on the main road to Pekin, and cro sse one of the moun tain passes close to a portion of the great wall, and passed into the Pe-the-le province, and being within reach of the city Chin-ting, about 30 miles from the provincial capital, Paou-ting, which is about 200 miles fr om P e ki n , towards which they were pushing on. The I m p er i a l force was to the southward of them. At Ningpo all was quiet on the 15th inst., and at Foochow, on the 19th inst., good order Was maintained, and continued preparations made for the defence of the city. RE-CAPTURE OF AMOY, AND EXECUTION OF 1.000 OF THE REBELS. From Amoy the most melancholy accounts have been received, involving an amount of bl oo d s h ed that is calculated to strike terror into the hardest heart, and with any other people than Chinese would induce a reaction and a cry of vengeance on the authors of such fearful outrages as those now enacting at Amoy and in its neighbourhood. The EI)R1OE SD. ' Imperialists have retaken the place, and have marked their success by slaying in cold bl oo d near l y 1,000 1 persons, mos t o f whom took nopart in the late move ment except on compulsion. Thestreetsand wharves of Amoy have literally streamed with human blood, not shed in any warlike operations, but done in savage revenge and to blind the authorities at Pekin as to the bravery of the enactors. A letter from Amoy, dated Nov. 22, received but very recently, states that up to that period all was quiet, and matters wore much the same appearance, as far as foreign ! ers were concerned, as under the insurgent rulers. Executions were o f d a i ly occurrence. The man darins, to mark their success, were revelling in human gore, putting to death all who fall into their hands indiscriminately. The original mover of the rebellion had been given up to the man darins ; the unfortunate wretch was executed on the 17th November, together with his son, both bodies being quartered and their heads placed on the principal city gates. The villages around Amoy were made to contribute to the monster executions. Whole villages were threatened with death, unless they gave up all who took part in or sympathised with the rebels, and as a consequence of this brutal demand the poor, weak, inoffensive, and defence less villagers were surrendered up as victims to satiate the mandarins' thirst for blood. From these heart-rending and revolting scenes one gladly turns to notice the progress which the great movement is making in the interior. We have very little certain information of the doings of the Nanking insurgents ; but one thing is clear, namely, that their cause is making .headway, not withstandi ng a ll th e resources of the emperor are directed to quell the wide-spread disaffection. It is generally believed that the emperor is besieged ifi Pekin, and various rumours are current that the Tartar ruler has actually fled his capital, but of this no certain information has been received. On the subject of the present position and pros pects of the great movement, the Friend of China is of opinion that " the Tartar dynasty is now at its last gasp ; and that the next Chinese year will not unwarrantably be called as of the reign of Hung tseu-tsieuen, the Prince of Peace."

It is said of a man blind from his birth that he conceived of the colour scarlet that it was like the sound of a trumpet. Henceforth, for perhaps many years, these sights and sounds must, to this nation's senses, be suggestive of each other. We must never see scarlet but to think of the trumpet-call to arms ; we must hear the bugle-horn, not any more for the concert or the chase, but as the rally of our re d- coa t s . "T o your tents, 0 Israel !' Discussion was lawful and was wise, so long as honourable negotiation was possible. It is trea son, after action has been decided upon, and our honour and our p ower are comm i tted to the cause of the weak, clothed in justice, against the strong, clad in mail. We must be all of one heart and one mind. Neither the pipe -clay German Emperor nor the Muscovite burglar must be left a "loop or peg to hang a doubt on," from any vacillation in our spirit, or distraction in our councils. We must, Like the Pontic sea, Know no retiring ebb, but hold due course On to the Propontic or the Hellespont. Those who most eagerly desire peace, and most ear nestly deprecate hostilities, will find it to their ac count to dismiss their dissent, and forswear their nonconformity, and make their hearts beat in timely unison with the general pulse. We must have no half-faced fellowship. There must be no "recreant limbs" to "hang a calf-skin" on. Hence forth let the Peace Society prove its objects by holding its peace. Let Mr. Cobden, for whose able counsel we have been thankful so long as it was of use, and for whose moral courage and great abilities we will ever retain a genuine re verence, learn to know when he is beaten, and take the cudgel with the thankful meekness of a calico martyr. We have doubted and hesitated, as long as there was room to doubt, or reason for hesitation. But there is no apology for either, when this people are at last, as they are now, fully committed to the final issue of " Pull devil, pull baker." We must not any longer wait upon the motions of our Government. The spontaneous couclamation of a great people must demand of their leaders to be led on to the terrible execution of a providential justice. The whole power of England must drive every blow home. N o mor e little wars for us. Ours now must be—" The big war, that makes ambition virtue." H e that is not for us is against us—is against his country —is against the exalted equity of a divine retribution. If, at the end of years, there should remain but two crowned heads in Europe, let the fate fall upon those who temporised with the ras ca_ ldra o of autocracy, and did not at once i toanthcle face.iwth instant King peremptoriness, withstand t Leopold may find that fusion means co n f us i on. We have counted the cost. We are in the centre of the commerce of Europe. There i s not a continen tal seaport, capital , third - rate town, th at has not English money, goods, claim s, or debts in it. We shall lose more than anybody else in this melee, simply because w e own more th an any b o d y else. Commerce will be interrupted —the calculations of enterprise baffled—the securities of industry shaken —trade rendered illegitimate and irreg u l ar .._production checked. —and progress arrested. Our vast outlying provinces will call for stricter defences, and require more extended protection against surprise or aggression. Our gigantic colonial trade will be interrupted in the very access of its miraculous development --our merchantmen will be threatened with letters of marque, and the profits of our cargoes swallowed up in insurance. To crown all, the great landmarks of European poWer I and authority will be obliterated—new states and I constitutions will disturb all the settled securities I of intercommunion, and our lives will have run down to their last ebbing sands, amidst th e troublings of the wicked, beore the full establish ment of a new order of things shall have enabled mankind to shuffle off the mortal coil of nervous anxiety, and to live—each man under his own vino and fig-tree, with none to make him afraid. But at the worst the picture has its obverse. Let our readers take the map, and cast their eye over the scene of the present struggle. Russia has no out lets but the Black Sea and the Baltic. The Dar danelles are the key to the former—the latter is frozen a great part of the year ; and the outlet by the Sound, the Cattegut and the Skagerack, is easily blockaded. Our fleets will knock the Rue-' %.,..' -- S .•4 -. •at',' On. - .•.41 , 7-.------ 4 4 ti. 4 4, ~ • _.4 .s about their ears—land t `'latlilti...l' point we please—enable us nd,, along with France, the monopoly of th '' &fine- - --:' commerce of the world.

We have coal and iron, the great sinew s of modern war and ma nufactures. If Germany, and Prussia, and Italy be on our side, the contest will soon come a to a close—if th e y be against us , t h e i r in ternal distractions, and the measures necessary to sustain the contest, will render them incapable of sparing attention to the culture of the arts or to the reaping of the fruits of peace. Privateers and letters of marque are no longer formidable. Our merchan dise is in a great measure carried in steamers the steam privateers could not, we think, work , constant necessity of coaling, and the absence of coals at any point uncovered by our war steamers, rendering them impracticable instruments of war ; while mere sailing vessels would be chased by our steam-frigates over the sea or into harbour, without the possibility of escape. The Turks, like the Por tuguese or Spaniards, may n o t b e very formidable by themselves ; but vertebrated by even ten thou sandFrenchmen' and there can b e li ttle doubt that they will drive the Russians out of the Danubian provinces " like smoke." The number of British troops in Spain, Portugal, even at Waterloo, was proportionately insignificant ; but their presence makes other soldiers as efficient as our own, and nerves even the sepoy with the vigour of the " Bri-* tish grenadier." Should we so very deeply regret that the exigencies of war afford us a fair reason for quartering au English and French army of oc cupation in Egypt and Turkey ? It should 'not necessarily cost us a very material excess over our ordinary expenditure, as our troops must be ra tioned and quartered somewhere; and Russia may find the tables turned upon her policy, and vblleu she thought only of the Turks falling an easy, prey to her ambition, she may be doomed to find the two most powerful nations in Europe in dan gerous proximity to her own frontier. In Turk _____ we shall civilise- the ma 'lbw - -' . ' --111— . art of government, and the proper mechanisria of wise administration—give greater security t o th e people aga i nst t h e tyranny and extortion of their rulers —reveal to them the mighty forces of huma nity Ai and justice, and strengthen the hands of those who sincerely desire the happiness of individual subjects, the stability of the throne, and the power I and progress of the aggregated state and nation. As for Persia—de/cm/a est ! She deserves no quar ter, and must ha ve none . Sh e must be annexed either to our India or to Turkey. Her indepen dent existence can be no more tolerated than that of a loaded blunderbuss in the hands of a highway man. She has lent herself, at the time of our ut most need, to our bitterest enemy, and declared war against us without the slizhtest excuse except that of our extremity and her own opportunity. As to the "Autocrat of all the Russias it is our de liberate opini on th at his reign and ' kingdom must be declared to be at end. • He has put himself beyond the pale of th e h umanities of international law. He has disturbed the peace of all Europe without the shadow of a reason, except that of his own " absolute shall," and the rule of the strongest. i He is not a Christian King, making war upon a neighbour on account of any real materials of dis sen sion between them, and owning himself amen a bl e , to the ordinary casuistry of civilised contention or, diplomacy. It is as obvious as any spring of human action can reveal itself by acts that his quarrel is that of the wolf and the lamb—that he has resolved upon aggression, and trusted to invent a cause for it afterwards—that he is a mere burglar and buc canier— A vice of kings ! A cut-purse of the empire and of rule, Who from the shelf the precious diadem steals And puts it in his pocket ! To spare him, is to trust to the tameness of a tiger who cowers, for years it may be, under the eye, and purrs under the caress, of a keeper, but who, when least expected, finds the savagery of the Lybian desert to steal upon him, and tears to pieces those who have trusted to his tractalilility. What better shall we, or shall Europe be, if we drive him to a peace and to a treaty ? How much safer ? How further remote from fresh pretensions, renewed aggressions ? You cannot convince a knave that honesty is the best policy. "Hath he not cooled our friends, heated our enemies ?" Does he not intrigue and bribe at every barbarian court, from Persia to Japan, to set the world against us, and to plant his foot firmly in our shoe prints ? Without a perpetual army of occupation in the East, how can we secure the neutrality of a man whom no treaties can bind, by whom no rights are re spected, who uses religion only - to invoke its aid to help his treachery, and blasphemes Heaven by ad juring its testimony to his hypocrisy and his lies ? He must be bound in his ancient chains of ice. No more Emperor of Russia, he must be reduced to his former title of Duke of Muscovy. Finland must be restored to its lawful owner. His Asiatic acquisitions must be rendered back to the dynasties of the East. A king that would play the thief must be handcuffed. A sovereign turned high wayman, and crying "Stand and deliver," to every peaceful wayfarer on whose defencelessness he presumes, must be hunted by • having the country raised upon him, and thrust into a cage in fetters. A caution to our people is very essential. England must not put forth her strength feebly and in driblets. The war, for such we see is impending, must not be starved by that par simonous penny wisdom which is pound foolish ness. Had we overwhelmed Napoleon by all our force at first, we should have saved hundreds of millions which we had to spend at last. Let us prepare our minds to grant with alacrity to the Queen whatever subsidies may be necessary to pro secute the contest with vigour, and to bring it to an arbitrament with summary despatch. Up with the besom of destruction at the masthead of our Black Sea fleet ; let another stand by at the Baltic. Punish Persia from the side of India, or let Turkey win her and wear her. As for Austria, if she moves a finger in the quarrel, let Hungary loose, and send the fiery cross through Italy, and call Poland again to political life. Now on, you noblest English Whose blood is fetched from fathers of war proof ; I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's a foot ; Follow your spirit ; and upon this charge Cry—God for Justice, England and St. George ! THE PRESTON STRIKE. The millowners at Preston maintain that unswerving determination to vindicate the indispensable rights of employers which they have exhibited from the com mencement of the contest in that town. They firmly de cline the applications for employment, at the advanced rate, which have been made at their respective establish ments. They stand immovable upon their own conditions. And, feelingfprofoundly convinced that, if the manage; ment of their own property, and the regulation of wages according to the natural law of supply and demand, are not to be perpetually and ruinously inter fered with, by a knot of delegates, who are the ty rants of the operatives, as they would fain be of the capitalists also, the latter are coming forward in all parts of the district to join the subscription for defraying the current expenses of those who are bearing the brunt of the battle. It is to be hoped that there will be no hanging back at this crisis. Even the merchants and home-trade dealers feel that they are deeply interested in ee tis iary cauaseid;. arTidh,eifmnaecestesrssaryh,avweillbceeon lomefrocred t forward co. p . bine in self-defence. They must, then, break the power of that organised despotism which has d r i ven th em i nto a position as unnatural as it is distasteful to them ; and, having done that, they will of course dissolve their own league. At this moment great surprise and indignation h at av e Wigan,been excited by th e i nexp li ca b le conduct of a firm who, after being among the first and most resolute in urging the other millowners to close their works rather than yield to an unjust dictation, have now gratuitously, and in the face of unmistakeable signs of weakness on the other side, thrown open their factory at an advance. It seems that some of those in authority among the hands, seeing in the measure now adopted against them the certain defeat of their usurpation, are" of opinion that the time is come for prudently securing to themselves as large a share as possible of the mammon of unrighteousness" yet at their command. We happen to know that a gentleman in the north of the county, lately read to his people a circular inviting him to join in the subscription to the Preston masters. He said, however, that he did not like to enter into any. thing of the kind, and proposed that if they would cease supporting the workpeople's combination, he would not begin to support that of the masters. Time was re quested by a delegate to take this proposal into con sideration. Meanwhile, though it was not his week for collecting subscriptions, he induced the person whose turn it was to give place to himself ; and; having got together about 1601,, he has absconded there' with. Other malpractices are coming out. For in• stance, it has been discovered that persons who bad left Preston, and got employment elsewhere, have gone over regularly to that place for their weekly allowance. These things betoken the end as near at hand. What consolation will there be left for the honest and unwill ing victims of a tyranny from which they have suffered and must suffer incalculable privations ? The committee of the "Master Spinners' and Manufacturers' Defence Fund" met this a fte rnoon , and resolved, to request the trade to continue their subscriptions on the scale fixed at the last general meeting, as nothing has occurred to render it advisable to slacken the effect to render assist ance to the Preston masters.--- Manchester Guardian of yesterday. 13 1 a V t t ° a ° l f l o w n ' , C H w ' b el e When 11 i t 1 IC; En joined ap h head. l '• ROYAL ARTILLZII 7 Y tiI Romer's company quarters here yesterday evening from Portsmouth, on being landed from the Simoom steam troop-ship, only mustered 35 gunners, the remai n d er of the men of the company having volunteered t o serve in the other cons. panies at the Cape, or purchased their discharges for the purpose of settling in the colony. illers ad had Cason 1 for lined avers :line. :o 42 s ;3 52 0 to 56,3 to 00s to 00s Feb. 4 ran. 16 ~r
