P;I ti .3; eitt O ITZ WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. • Every arrival fro? ;the:Elielirehi. fleet disproves the assertions the. invidious ..detractors of . our gallanteid mirals in that quarter. : is; not their fault that the Russian fleet wasenotidestroyed, host?, year ; the delay is _justly attributed to theeabsence of orders, aokeven now it•is - weli- understood' diet the 'removal the fleet from Beyome eo -Varna took place before the - declaration of war. The news that theeßoestaris had crossed the Danube determined the admirals to proceed as. near to the slat of war as they , could • 'take their ships. - From • the we hear'," as - Mlle; sorti of stories ; but, as we -stated last week, the gal lant and determined Plartiridge, teeth hi s f r i ga te squadron. will net- lose - sight of • the enemy. We have heard, by the way, that , the Russian reen-of-war that were seen betrayed' a most unmistakeable haste to get away; although they were line-of-battle ships, and Plumridge had • only three or four frigates with him. All accounts agree that the most incessant activity in completing the' war preparations prevails in the Russian ports. The following extract from a letter received from the Baltic .will .s how that the industry of the Russians has a judi c i ous direction :—" The Emperor of Russia has had a heavy 60-gun frigate placed at diffe rent ranges off Cronstadt, to ascertain the effect of shot and shell upon the forts et the greatest distance. Several thousand rounds have beeri - fired." • , Rear-Admir a l B e rkeley is awaiting the arrival at Portsmouth of the Portland, 50, from the Pacific, and the Centaur steam-frigate from Rio, both which ships will he ordered to the Baltic immediately: The dock yard artifioers are ready to make any defects good on board on their being reported, and the authorities of , thefence victualling-yard are ready with lighters to ; iiend,proeisiOnie out to them, so that no delay whatev er r '.e,a, - i e e cur. , in getting them_ to sea again.

LETTEItS FROM THE *BALTIC FLEET. The Ptymouth Mai/ gives the, following extract from a letter, dated 11.1\1.5. Neptune, Kioge Bay ) April 9 :-- _ " Last Tuesday, the 4th, our ship's company were all call -aft on the quarter-d ec k, an d when assembled • Admiral Corry addressed us as follows My lads— Captain Button is going to read to you a speech made by the Commandet‘in-Chief, ' Sir Charles Napier, by telegraph this morning, and I hope • when you hear it read ) you will respond to it' as this ship's company, or any other ship's company,- ought, when they hear' the words of that: paper (pointing to a paper held by Captain Hutton).';- captain -H. then stepped forward and read the Signal (which has' been already Published.) 'When he had done reading, the captain, itt his short curt style, - thus- addtesssed There, yoit'lrear that. Nov I know 'there is no ship can do more than the Nei)- tune. You have • always 'done well Since .1 have had th'e , honour toi command you, and the re f ore I am proud of you ; yes, - 'proud of you ' - and I know , the Admiral's feelings with "regard to, you are •the same 'as my own ; and we are quite sure Whin you do come into active service (which you will do very shortly), you will behave as this ship's corn -puny ought to behave. I haVe every co - afidence in you. You have all heard 'of the deeds of your forefathers, how they upheld' the hodour of old England, and many of you herd present are no - doubt - the sons of those 'gallant fellows ; and I hope—but there, I know you will follow in their wake, and feel certain there - are no two Russian liners of the same class as oureelves, nor two of any other nation, that we could - not engage, ay, and take them too.' Here the old captain hit.the poop rail such a thwack that, had it been the head of a Russian, he would have quickly cried out for mercy. When the men found the captain had done speaking, they paused an instant, as it were, to concentrate all their energies, for the' next moment they sent up a cheer from the- very bottom of their hearts. Another and another followed in quick success i on, an d then ' three more, and t h en aftert h flew o t u h r ey tirr s a ee in m t e: wild with enthusiasm, and then came the Charley'e we er h y op ' e T w hr i e ll e e.x e c h u e s e e rs the fo f r am O ir ld iarity),and aw (t a h y e gave three cheersth (Corry), and three f e or rig ,t gi he ng c , o t m op m s a , n a d n e d r.i cr .n o e s h a i t e r f ee ; came the cry, Three rdoarer c it h w ee e rs gav fo e r h o it z a o n w d n ne ad ver m s' w i t ra ah e ne r i nd ; were standin g 'on joining in the cheer an e d ' three cheers more deserved.

We hive lots of exercise at § , Uarterl; small arnis, &c., and no - end of Bing at a mark ; but I should ,think it; high time for, some store ships to arrive, not only, with provisions and stores, but powder, • shot, and shell—the expendi ture must have been 'very great in exercise—and we only want a ship to take back' returns—.on com pleting provisions the other day some of the ships were ordered to burn good casks forflrevroed, not having any space to stow-them and full casks. Admiral Chads, is a most untiring man in gunnery, and I think the poor Rubsians will be cut up like Mince meat ; the four black ships (Bdinbui - gh, Hogue, Blenheim, and Ajax) as they are termed, will commit dreadful havoc amongst them. Never was there such ,a fleet as we have now in the Baltic ; we' shall annihilate the _Russian. fleet when once we begin —ls .sad of the line—two 60es, one 47, three 36's, and , fifteen paddle-wheel and screw steamers, which we expect to be 'increased by 'twelve sail of the iine, and a dozen steamers, serew in ad dition to which will come the powerful French fleet. I think it would' be a grand speculation for a few fast sailing schooners or screw ships to come,out here with ' notions, as the Americans say ; they certainly, would make a grand thing of it, if their prices were moderate. 'The officers of the fleet are very much disgusted at the Government charcing them 6d. for letters by men-of war. As Lord Grey said, we are all poor nien • end as it does not cost the country anything to send them, he should think the usual penny stamp sufficient.

People rolling in riches, whom we are defending,' paying ls. 2d. in the pound inceine-tax, and- the same amount is taken out of our hard earnings. The time is con* now that things are so dear, for the country to , add 10 per cent. to our incomes. Pray lend us your aid in the matter." SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEAVMARKET, CRAVEN MEETING.

MR. URQU4A ItT AT ES7'ER. A Meeting was held at the Manchester Corn Exchange on Wednesday evening, which had been called for the purpose of affording Mr; David - Urquhart an opportu- nity of expressing his views of the Eastern question and the war. Mr. Urquhart had summoned the meet. ing in a. personal address to the inhabitants, in which. he said, "The nation is plunging into a war. In ig norance, it believes it to be made against Russia. I know that it is Made in concurrence with 'Russia, and this knOwledge it is which urges me to make you this proposal. It is with Turkey, and ultimately with France, - that Ton will fight, unless your hand be stayed. You have brought a revo'ution upon Turkey ; you will hring it also upon Europe, and ultitnately experiende it nt home." Mr. Alderinan Heywood presided. URQUEIAItT read the following letter from Mr. Bright, M.P., in reply to an invitation he had given the hon. member to be present : "Rochdale, April 18. "Dear Sir,—l have. to thank you for, your note of the 15th inst., inviting, rue to a meeting to: be held in Man chester to-morrow. I am not astounded at your audacity in calling the meeting ; on the contrary, I believe in your sincerity. I regard your resolution to appeal openly to your countrymen as courageousand proper. If I agreed with you on this Enstern..question—if we had one starting point—if our sentiments in regard , to it were in harmony —I should feel it my duty to be at your side. But the fact is, that we differ widely , in almost every point, except. in the condemnation of this war; and r do not think I should do anything for the cause of peace by ap. eating to go with you, when, in truth, there is little agreement be tween us. I believe the war to be altogether unnecessary, and that nothing can be said either for its justice or its expediency: I helieve„furtber, that after having permitted the- country by a series of blunders to drift into war, the Ministers who have chiefly spoken on the subject, with the exception of Lord :Aberdeen, have. misrepresented the facto of thecese, and have thereby milled pnblie opinion. With regard to the professed objects of war, I believe them to be impossible of attainment, and that 'Russia, in her wildest dreams of anibitiOn, never imagined so many calamities to Turkey as have been brought upon that de voted country in a single year by the friendship which our Government has professed towards her. It is a melapcholy circumstance that the. English public—not examining, and notrefiecting—accepting, with a child-like siniplicity, the declarations of statesmen, whose only present - bond of union is a partnership in the guilt of this war, and relying on the assertions of a press, more anxious for a trade, in newspapers than for t ruth, should give their sanction , to proceedings as much opposed to their , own interests as they are to every principle of morality. Our countrymen fancy they are fighting for freedom, because the Russian Government is a ,des potism ; they forget that the object of their solicitude is no less a despot ; that their chief ally, but the other day, overthrew a republic, and imprisoned or expatriated the members of a freelyeiected Parliament ;, that they are al ternately coaxing and hullyipg Austria (whose reg trd• for freedom and justice Hungary arid` Italy can attest) to join them in this holy war; and that the chief result of their 'success—if success_ be possible—will be to perpetuate the domination of a handful of the followers ofillahomet from among millions of Christians, throughout the provinces of Enropean Turkey. There was a time when it was fashion able to have sympathy for Greece. Now, Athens is to be reoccupied by Englis • and - French troops if a strong anti- Turkish feeling is nuanifestathere; Five years ago hnglish Liberals -wished, success to the insurrections in Italy and to the war for independence in Hungary. Now the efforts of the Greeks for freedom are , pronounced ill-timed, and we, who are sending Our fleets and armies to perfect their. subjugation to the Turks; are the best judges of the mo ment when their fetters should be struck off. The people, or a portion of them, are drunk with a confused notion of fixating with Russia. They confound the blowing up of ships and the slaughter of thousands with the cause of free dom, as if there were any connexion in matters wholly apart. I cannot hope to change this feeling, amd fear you cannot. Time and experience alone will convince them, perhaps when too late, that a great national crime lies at' their door." • The letter was received with mingled cheera and hisses Mr. RAizirowril moved, "That it is not safe to enter into war, without a thorough knowledge of the circum stances.' Mr. ROLAND seconded the motion ; and it was agreed to. , _ • Mr. CONYNGFiAME moved, " That the English people" having. been indifferent as to it, external relations for many years, it. i= expedient .that it now employ itself in* comprehending them," Mr. PARS seconded,, and Colonel CHESNEY Oupported, - the motion. • • • Mr. R. J. RICHARDSON, of Salford, moved an amend ment, to the effect . that the motion ,reflected iii3on the intelligence of the people of Manchester, and that they. were capable of thinking for themselves. . Mr. STORE% seconded the amendment, which was negatived. _ - Mr. A. WATIIN proposed a second amendmeut-- Mr. PoWES seconded the amendment. - - " That this meeting ,concurring in opinion with the great majority of the British people that the war with Rus sia in defence of turkey is a just and necessary war, de sires to express its earnest wish that the war may be,enr ried on with the utmost vi°our,, awl continued until the power of Russia shall be redUced within-such liinits as will be consistent with the peace and safety of the world--- , (load and general cheering)—and that in furtherance of this view the restoration of Poland, Hungary, and Italy 1 to the state of indep.ndent nations, having free institu tions, is greatly to be desired. "(Renewed cheering.) Mr. URQUHART then rose to address the meeting and was received with cheers. He said, the result of our sending troops to the East must be said that the Eng., lish contingent of 25,00 Cf men would take Constantinople, ~while the Turkisb empire, the Dardanelles, and that, in fact,- the troops sent to the East were seut :fora Rus sian aid. (Cries of " No, no I" and hisses). Did the meeting object to his entertaining an opinion Our troops ,would - never fight the Russians ; we should re quire a head to fight the Russians. They were fighting against a necromancer. It was a body fighting against mind. God had given power of body . to the English, capacity of mind to Russia. And did they think that the relationship was changed because they had the power of 'moving armies He would tell then-i this—that the ;hole of these events were planned byßussia long ago. 'Let them not think that the mat ter WAS te be decided upon the Danube. People here were listening for the thunder of guns, in the Dobrud scha ; while, in - Turkey, they were waiting for the indi cations of thought here. Mr. Urquhart drew a retro spect of past wars between Turkey and Ru.4sia, dwelt on the danger of revolutions in Europe involved in the war, and our own danger in reference to India, and on the secret Correspondence by which' our. Ministers had entered into a bargain with Russia for the partition of Turkey. ' A gentleman inquired when that bargain was male ? Mr. URQUHART—When they got the English Govern ment holding secret communications with the. very Power to resist ,whom its whole policy was directed, what could be the object of ,concealment I If it was not that there had been infamy, the' Men. must have been fools. - It was his object to excite their attention .to the fact that' they had been bought and sold. -He took these means to save himself. with. them, and he was labouring to save both them and himself. He might have sold them if he liked, but he was determined to save them. This, then. was.the bargain-:-Constantinople for Russia, and Egypt and Candia for the English. Mr. Urquhart said, the Great Napoleon might have had the eame bargain, and read his statement, made at St. lieiena, to that effect. (The speech was interrupted by cries 'of impatience, lamilster. and incredulity, about. equally mingled.) . _ _ The CIIAIRMAN decided that Mr. Watkins' amendment was' not an amendment ; nut the meeting solved the difficulty about dealing with it, by expressing a wish to have bath motion and amendment, and accordingly carried each of them A ..third resolution was carried to the effect that an association be formed in Manchester for the purpose of acqUirhig and disseminating constitutional and diplo matic knowledge ; and this concluded the proceedings. THE SUSPECTED MURDER AND MUTILATION' OP THE BODY AT PADDINGTON.—Yesterday Mr. Brent resumed and, concluded an inquiry at the Bank of England, Pad dington, into the circumstances connected with the 'death of a male infant, who-e mutilated body was dis covered hi-a sewer hear Connaullit square; under eir-' oilmstances already. detailed in The Sun. • The irive-4i: gation was adjourned, as both the coroner and jury Considered it- highly probable' that, the guilty. party or parties would' be detected, should the testimony of the man Geale, who found the remains while ratting in 'the sewer, and who stated, as 'a person well ac quainted with sewers, that they must have come f ro m o n e _ of the adjoining drains i n Berkeley-street, as there was no stream to have carried them down, and the flood gates had not been opened for upwards of a week prior to the finding of the' body, prove Correct. The police were instructed to make all necessary inquiries in the neighbourhood respecting the atrocious affair ; and on the re-assembling of the jury yesterday,- Sergeant White, 13 D, stated that he had made every inquiry in Berkeley street, and its immediate locality, without gaining any , information which- could lead in any way to 'the eluci dation of the affair. He had also, in compsny-with.-the - witness Geale, - descended into:the sewer and examined all the drains belonging to, the houses in Berkeley-street, withoutdiscovering any portion.s of the missing remains.. After the examination of other witnesses, the jury re turned an open verdict, leaving the affair in the hands of the police for further investigation. DEATH orPaoressos JAMESON.—This distinguished man, whose name has been familiar in the scientific circles of Europe and America for half-a-century, died yesterday at his residence in this city at a very advanced age, being on the borders 'of eighty. Professor Jame son' has been for a considerable period- in a declining state ,of health. He attempted to lecture in the Session 1852-3, but was compelled to forego thin and all active duties. In 1804 be was appointed Professor of Natural History in the University of Edinburgh, and has there fore held - that chair for the- long period of 450 years. and had been in the University ld years longer than. any of his colleagues in the Seriatim Ac tdevilicus. In 1808 he founded the Wernerian Natural History Society, and in 1819 commenced the Edinburgh new Philoso - hical Journal. Professor Jameson contributed largely to the Encyclopedia Brit innica, and has left behind him in his works ample - evidence of hie devotion to science. He' was elected a corresponding member of the Institute of Franee--was a member of the French Academy, and many other scientific bodies both at home and abroad.; and we' need scarcely add that his name hai been long associated with the University - Museum, which owes no little of its celebrity to his labour and zeal.

LAW LYTP LI - i 7 20. COURT OF CHANCERY. THE QUEEN V. THE EASTERN . ARCHIPELAGO COMPANY. The further hearing of the argument in this case, which was part heard yesterday, was resumed and concluded to-day. The petition was on behalf of the company, and it prayed that all further proceedings on a juilgment under a writ of scire facias, annulling their charter, might be stayed until the law officers of the Crow n had inquired into the circumstances under which the Board of Trade gave its approval of the way in which the con ditions of the charter bad been carried out, with refer ence to the payment of a portion of the capital withinr a certain period. It appeared that the writ of setre fccias had been issued M the instance of Sir J-ones Brooke, one of the directors, the object being tc hive the charter revoked, which 46 been granted to the company, on the ground that the company i:ad not complied with the terms of the charter, and had frau-lulently repre , ented that a capital cf 50,0001 had been raised. . The .issue upou the writ was tried by Lord Campbell, when a ver dict was ref'urued in faVour of thirCrown, and the judg• merit' in the Queen's amch was affirmed in the Court of Exchequer on error. The petition - therefore prayed that execution on the writ should be 'stayed till' - the 'inquiry the company solicited was made by the law officers of the Crown, ‘. Mr. Rolt and Mr. Freeling appeared in support of the petition, and Mr. J. V. Prior and Mr. Roupell against it. On the conclusion of the argument, The Lord Chancellor said that as judgment bad been pronounced in the case there could be no such thing as a nolle prosequi. The case was the same as. that 4 a capital felony, where nothing Was left, to-be, dons but for the sheriff to execute.: With regard to the moral impu tation, he had only to say that no moral imputation whatever rested upon the directors in having stated that the. capital of 50,000/_ had been paid up, and his lordship therefore .he'd that the directors were relieved from that , imputation. His lordship concluded by saying that the petition must be dismissed. Petition dismissed accordingly. (Before the Lords Justices.) WING V. HARVEY. This bill was filed. against the President of the 'Nor wich Union Insurance Company, to obtain . A decree for the payment of certain policies of insurance, amounting to 5301. and effected on the life of a person named Ben nett, who, subsequent to the isAiing of the policies, ceeded to Canada, where he died. Up to the period of his decease the premiums were regularly paid. The de fendants contended-that the deceased had, contrary to the terms of the policies, gone beyond sea, that they had not-had notice of his having done so, and that -tht'y ought to have been paid the - higher premium on the extra risk. The Lords Justices held that the payment of the.pre miunis, under the circumstances,' constituted sufficient notice, and that the - defendahts, by the receipt of the premiums, should be held to have as,ented to the reel denee :beyond sea, and . the Validity of the policie.4 should therefore be maintained. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURTS. (Before. Sir R; Kiridenitry.) WOODHOUSE V. WOODHOUSE. In this case'it. appeared that a testator, named Robert Woodhouse. left all his property to be dtvide..i between his three children equally, but the whare of has daughter vn directed to be settled so that one moiety Should be paid to heraloolutely, and the rest to be settled upon certain trusts fur her bei,efit. Before the testator died his - clau4hter married, and upon the marriage the testa tor settled 7,0001. upon trust fur her and her children, and he also gave her a sum of 8001. as an outfit. The .laughter, at her father's request, wrote Into a letter, ac knewledgin-f that the 7,8001. was settled upon her on account of her share of his property. Upon the testa tor's death a que tion arose, - w:iettler the looney setted upon the daughter was a substitution for the moiety directed by the will to be settled upon her, or whether it was to be deducted from the entire sum given her by the will. , Mr. BaiLev, Mr. Teed, Mr. Gre_e'n,_Mr. Martindale, and Mr, &Jawed appeared for the different parties. The Vine-Chancellor decided that the 7 ; 800/, was to be deducted from the whole of the property to which the daiighter was entitled under the will. _ His Honour e , n. sidered that this evidently the intention of the testator.
