BONNET'S SILKS a LYON. —Every Article of commerce takes its title either from the inventor or nawdacturer. and the more perfect the production the grater is the credit which attaches to the originator. BONNET'S SILKS are said to be incapable of identifica tion in England; but the fallacy of such an assertion is ex posed by the very trade mark of the firm, as exhibited by Messrs. JAY, of Regent-street. The following interwoven mark may be seen at the end of each piece :—" Manufacture de C. J. Bonnet et Cie., a Lyon a Injurieux." Wear guaranteed. FAMILY MOURNING.—Messrs. JAY would respectfully announce that great economy is effected by purchasing Mourning at their establishment, 2+7 and 249, REGENT-STREET, their Stock of FAMILY MOURNING bein , the largest in Europe. Though Messrs. Jay professedly keep the best articles for Mourning and Half-Mourning—at all times the cheapest —they supply a Complete Suit of Domestic Mourning for 2S guineas. MOURNING COSTUME of every description is kept Ready Made, and can be forwarded in town or country at a moment's notice.

Failing in that effort, to effect an opportune passage of the river, General LGNGSTREET was compelled, it seems, to hold his hands, as it were, in the very midst of his success. Though at the same time, as the last curt sentence of that portion of the usual jumble of telegrams, we have the significant intimation—" Moro fighting is expected." Fol lowed, under a later date (the 18th) by the yet more striking intimation, " The Fighting with General LGNGSTREET is still progressing." Mean time the tables have at the very least, we know for certain, been turned. They have been turned so unmi.takeabiy, that not only is LONGSTREET known to have changed his position as the pursued into that of the pursuer, but the Federal forces are ascertained to have deserted Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, and, with those "'coigns of 'vantage," the whole country side between the latter and Ring gold. The result here, is, for all the world, as much of an anti-climax in its way, after the late evidences of Federal exultation at so many Northern successes achieved, and at so many consequent Southern defeats, if not even most calamitous disasters —the result here, we say, is of its kind quite as much of an anti-climax as the abrupt withdrawal of the Federal main army, under MEADE, back again across the Rapidan at the very moment when people had been taught to believe that LEE and his Confederates had been trapped by the said 3lEADE—either to a surrender like that of MACK at Ulm, or, to a crushing and overwhelming defeat in pitched battle like that suffered by the Austrians and Russians together under their two emperors immediately after Ulm, upon the foughten field of Austerlitz! Pre cisely at the very moment when the more ' credulous were preparing to witness a single meal made, off-hand, of LEE and his army, LEE'S formidable antagonist and his army withdrew ogether, very quietly indeed, back again across the Rapidan ! And so, now, also, quite as absurdly, in opposition to the immediately preceding accounts given to us by the Federal authorities, the defeated turns out to be the defeater—Missionary Ridge and Lookout Mountain, being withdrawn from by the Northern troops almost as hastily as Pear station itself—that pear, in NAPOLEONIC phrase, turning out to be very ripe indeed, ripe even to dropping. While such is the latest phase of the war as recog nisable in the actual military movements, the fury of the mutual antagonism engendered by the war between the Federals and the Confederates appears just now to be intensifying rather than in any way whatever assuaged. Judging from the tone in which Mr. LINCOLN'S amnesty proclamation has been denounced by one and all of the Southern journals that have yet commented upon it, but more parti- cularly by the press of Richmond, that documen appears to be regarded unanimously among the Con federates as more infamous and more exasperating even than its notorious predecessor! That proclama- tion by which the President of the once United States of America gave the signal for a Servile War by the announcement of what can alone be aptly designated as a Penal Abolition. Inso much does there seem to be a sort of evil fatality about the official acts and words of Mr. LINCOLN as the last of the United States Presidents, that this latest proceeding of his, so far from in any way preparing the road for anything like a settlement, seems to have been only too signally Effectual already in rousing the Southern people en n u to fresh evidences of their combined zeal and dogged deter mination. In the Times of last Friday there was a letter which especially deserves attention at this season. It refers to the "Refuges for Homeless and Desti- ute Children, at Bloomsbury." The appeal made by the Secretary on behalf of this Institution is one that earnestly demands notice, and it is to be hoped that it will not prove unavailing. A better means of bestowing help can hardly be chosen, for the claims of these little wanderers are manifold, and must speak with irresistible force to all who are impressed with the imminent necessity of providing a refuge for these young unfortunates. It needs no stretch of imagination, and requires no scope of fancy to depict the horrors of their situa tion, and foretell the danger of their future course, if left unaided and neglected in the wilder ness of the world. From the class here provided for spring up the dark family of crime, for it is a notorious fact that more than half the evil charac ters who infest society are first led astray by the temptations of idleness. It is a sad thing to reflect upon, and makes the painful case more distressing to feel assured that had timely help been afforded, and a place of shelter at hand, many of those being now regarded as outcasts from society, and herded with miscreants and ruffians, might have become respectable members of society, doing their duty in the station to which PROVIDENCE had called them. Mr. WILLIAMS mentions in his letter that they have already been of great service to the objects of their labour, and that during this year they sent out from their Institution no fewer than eighty boys to various British Colonies, and he adds that had these remained behind they would most probably have " preyed on the public" for their suppOrt. In this instance we may well say that these boys thus timely succoured have been taken from the evil to come, and so far as human foresight can divine the future, have been enabled to provide for themselves in a manner honest in the sight of all men. It is very much to be regretted that 20 more boys might have been similarly sent abroad lately, but that the funds of the "Refuge" would not permit the out lay. The state of the finances are so deplorably I°w that unless timely aid is imparted, many poor l '' l taants will be refused admission; It can hardly b e tv , of et this appeal will be neglected at this sea son who ar t t able feelings and kindly sentiments.

The cause of humanity and the voice of reason are potent to the side of charity in this Par ticular instance, and it will be a deplorable calamity and a disgraceful reflection if such a society as this should fail, or even become shorn of its pow er to impart aid a n d ass i s t ance, and t© those so greatly .n need of help. It is impossible to over estimate or exaggerate the importance of shielding the young from all hurtful influences, and the vast advan- tages that result from their being properly provided with suitable employments.

LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, DECtrgRER 29, 181V.3, serious expense upon us. Every social ad vantage and every Christian feeling are on the side of this Institiution; and now that the want has been made known, let not the call be unheeded. A fearful responsibility will rest upon those whose lives are lapped in luxury, and who leave their fellow-creatures to perish of cold and want in the streets, still worse to grow pp prolific in crime and fruitful in works of evil. It may be difficult to settle which is the best means of providing a remedy for the sad state of the adults of our population, who are hardened in iniquity ; but let us remember that had a helping hand been stretched forth to them in their early years they might now be walking their earthly course in rec titude, and bringing up their children in a spirit worthy of those who hope to make their offspring honest and faithful children in this world, and heirs of a better inheritance hereafter. With the young now around us no such excuse can be made ; they are open to good impressions, and eager for a change from their present discomforts. If the task of providing them with help is taken up with earnestness and good will, it cannot prove wholly unprofitable; but must conduce to the good of all, blessing him that gives and him that takes, and furthering the best interests of these little pilgrims on the world's highway here and hereafter, and bringing the best assurance to the thinking mind and the trasting heart that they have been given the surest means of so passing through things tem poral that they finally lose not the things eternal. The monthly report of the Central Executive Committee of the Lancashire Relief Fund to the General Committee will be looked at with some in terest. The months of winter are now sufficiently advanced to enable us to appreciate in some degree the effects of the inclement season upon the employ ment as well as the health of the people, and as yet such statistics are tolerably satisfactory and reas suring. We learn from the report now before us that during the last month there has been an in crease of 723 in the number of the recipients of relief from the Board of Guardians, and of 1,957 in those solely dependent upon the Local Committees. At first sight these figures are somewhat startling, but when we come to compare them with those re presenting the state of affairs last year at this time we shall see no grounds for discouragement. The total number in receipt of relief in the last week of November, 01. 18112, whether from Guardians, Local Committees, both conjointly, was 448,955. During the last week o f th e N ovem b er j ust past i t was 170,850, thus showing a decrease of 278,105. Various reasons are assigned for this diminution, such as the increase in the goods manufactured, as well as the number of hands needed to prepare the inferior quality of cotton; and also the natural mor tality among the cotton hands, which has not been supplied by the usual relays of new workers. No less than fourteen thousand are, it is estimated,engaged in other employments in the cotton districts, and we must of course add to these the numbers who have emigrated from the country, although this item is not alluded to in the Report. From whatever cause it may arise, however, the fact of the numbers in receipt of relief being re duced more than a quarter of a million in the twelvemonth is one full of hope and consolation, more especially at the season of the year which en tails increased wants in the way of food and clothing, so that the condition of our metropolitan poor has been such as to create some anxiety among Philanthropists. The committoee, with the foresight and good sense which have throughout distinguished their proceedings, are not inclined to make too sure of the continuation of the present condition of affairs, even although they have to record a consi derable increase. Looking forward and beyond the immediate sphere of action, they see reason to an ticipate some considerable fluctuations in the amount of employment. The price of cotton has hitherto risen so much as to increase largely the amount of capital employed both in the import and the manufacture. Various circumstances con nected with the importation of cotton have increased the absorption of the precious metals, thus producing, as we have seen, a rise in the value of money. The natural result of the temporary check which this rise offers to the specu lator is diminished employment, and at the same time the committee look forward with some anxiety to a fall in the price of cotton, owing to increased imports and lessened factory work, which, however great its ultimate advantages, might cause consi derable temporary embarrassment. With a view to the increased demand on their resources, which such an event would certainly cause, the committee have been careful to keep a considerable sum in hand, having now altogether a balance of 1:355,526—thus having a provision which enables them to face the prospect of a darker day without uneasiness. They add a hope, moreover, such as we have often expressed, that before the sums at their disposal shall be exhausted, and the relief given by the public works is at an end, " a steady and per manent augmentation in the supply of cotton may be expected." Such an anticipation coming from such a quarter, and put forward on the responsi bility of those who have every means of obtaining correct information, and would certainly not speak without good authority, will, we hope, tend greatly o re - assure those persons who persist, iv spite of al) that has been done and is doing, in taking a gloomy and altogether desponding view of the prospects of cur cotton trade. We are told that in anticipation of the coming revival a number of new mills are now in course of construction—a fact of itself of no slight importance, as promis, ing favourable auguries. The workpeople them. selves appear to entertain the same opinion; mos of those who have emigrated into neighbouring counties, or acc e pt e d o th er employments, having made their arrangements of a temporary nature, so as to be able to resume their old labour when the better days come again. The Public Works Act has not, it seems, as yet done all that was expected of it, being cumbered with unnecessary formalities, although the report informs us that the Govern- ment have shown every desire to simplify matters. More in this respect remains to be done and should ne dove promptly, if the cotton hands are to derive from it the relief it was intended to give. Should the necessary alterations be made, so that a large number of loans may be arranged without loss of time, we may hope that the greater number of workmen absorbed by these works may neutralise, in some degree, any increased distress eaused by the fluctuation of the cotton trade.

ALTONA, DEC. 25, " 3. The police authorities of the duchies of Hol stein and Lauenburg are in consideration at present circumstances, always to report immediately upon all-important occurrences within their district bearing upon public security and order, and in addition to send in an account every fortnight of all public matters in their district, until further orders to us direct. We further earnestly recom mend the police authorities of the Duchies of Hol stein and Lauenburg to ex?rcise precaution, and, if requisite, force for the maintenance of law and order in their respective districts during the pre sent agitated time." The signatures follow. " The suspension of sovereign rights occasioned by the assumption of the Government of the Duchies of Holstein and Lauenburg by the under signed Federal Commissioners requires, without further explanation, during the existence of this state of affairs omission of mention of his Majesty King Christian IX. of Den mark in the prayers of the Church. In reference hereto, and to bring about uniform procedure in the same, as also for the avoidance of possible interruptions to divine service, the Federal Commissioners feel themselves therefore called upon to order that from henceforth and till further orders, no mention of the Sovereign of the country is to be made by name when the prayer for the Government with its councillors and servants is put up—all clergymen are to govern themselves accordingly."

NEW YORK, DEC. 17 (Afternoon). Upon the afternoon of the 14th inst. General Longstreet, who had been reinforced, turned and attacked the pursuing force of the Federals near Pear Station, on Cumberland Gap and Moreston Railroad, throwing the Federals back a distance of half a mile. General Longstreet simultaneously executed a movement to cross the river and to get into the Federal rear, but failed to effect a passage across the river. More fighting is expected. Southern journals state that by a Confederate reconnoissance it has been ascertained that the Federals have deserted Look-out Mountain, Mis sionary Ridge, and all the country between these places and Ringold. The Federal force at Chattanooga was supposed to be intended for the pursuit of General Long street's force. Advices from Charleston to the 15th inst. state that the shelling of the city continues with trifling damage. An accidental fire had occurred in Fort Sumter, killing 10 and injuring 30 men. The Federal brig Perry has been captured near Charleston. The steamer Ceres was destroyed off Beaufort.

MR, ANTHONY TROLLOPE, Mr. Anthony Trollope, as the novelist of com mon sense, writes with a shrewdness and a sobriety, yet with a rush and fullness of thought that satis fies the intellect while seeming but to tickle our curiosity. He is an immense favourite with the most intelligent class of novel readers. He never soars very high, nor digs very deep, but he hardly ever disappoints; we can always rely upon him for a good story well sustained, full of life and not defi cient in ideas. In one respect he reminds us more than any other writer of Defoe. It is a common place of criticism that Defoe wanted imagination, that never was there so great a writer of fiction who so palpably displayed such a deficiency. It would be difficult to define what is meant by this, because nobody has yet been able to define what is meant by imagination. Imagination is the terra incognita of the mind. One metaphysician describes it as memory, another as reason, another as passion, a fourth as a combination of the three. The philo sophers cannot agree as to its nature, and we are not now going to digress into a discussion of what it really is. We dare say that on a close analysis Defoe would be found to have imagination of his own acting according to its own laws. We are now, however, speaking popularly, and according to the phrases of popular criticism, Defoe with all his great power was singularly void of imagination. He could call up a scene or describe a series of events with a hard prosaic accuracy, which, how ever it might command our interest, is supposed to be independent of imagination. On this level stands Mr. Anthony Trollope. He abjures ornaments, avoids the play of fancy, is purposely plain ; but on the good road, straight and level and well beaten, he bowls along at a rattling pace. He may not suggest much ; but he is so clear that we do not feel the want of suggestions. He has something to say and he says it fully. He never spins a yarn into gossamer. Oat it comes, sharp and clear and solid, with a force of manner which in Yankee slang is called " vim," and in English slang is known as "go."—Times. The Governor-General of India. Truth Stranger than Fiction. (Front the Edsnburgh Witness) The following striking statement, which we have from a most intelligent correspondent, is full of in. terest :—" More than half a century ago the affairs of a worthy draper in the town of Coleraine, in the county of Londonderry, got embarrassed. He sent his son, who assisted him in the business, to Man chester and Leeds to arrange with his creditors. The young man was harshly received ; and, after having failed to effect a settlement, arrived at Liver pool on his way home. His honourable spirit was lacerated by the treatment he had met with, and, dreading still more the disgrace and reproach he expected to encounter on his return to his native town, he, in a fit of desperation, enlisted as a pri vate soldier. The young draper's regiment was ordered out to India, where his good conduct soon brought him into notice, and the excellent educa tion which he had received paved the way for his promotion. He rose step by step until he reached the rank of colonel. He served bis country with honour, and in course of time gave two sons to the military service, having first given them to the Lord, and imbued their youthful minds with Chris- tian principles. Their valour and military accom plishments shed lustre on that earnest piety by which they were characterised. The two young soldiers to whom we refer were Sir John Lawrence, now the Governor. General of India, and the late Sir Henry Lawrence, known as the saNiour of Lucknow. Both of them have done honour and good service to their country, and neither of them were ashamed of the Cross of Christ. It is gratify ing to find that neither piety nor humble birth will prevent talent and worth from reaching the highest offices and honours in the gift of the British Crown. The grand uncle of the Governor-General of India still lives as a respectable small farmer in the north of the county of Antrim, about two miles from the fashionable watering place of Portrush, and five miles from the Giant's Causeway. LITERATURE; The Seven Ages of Man. Described by William Shakespeare. Depicted by Robert Smirke. L. Booth. We presume that we are to regard this beautiful little limp-bound quarto volumette but as the pre cursor of a far nobler work of a similar character, now fast preparing for publication by Mr. Booth. The celebrated Shakespeare Gallery, that is to say, which that enterprising publisher now announces as almost immediately forthcoming. In it, that is in the Gallery thus declared to be upon the eve of making its welcome and timely appearance— timely we mean as in opportune anticipation of the approaching ShaksperianTercen tenary—n o less than ninety-eight Photographs of Engravings from Pictures by the most eminent of English Masters, Pictures every one of them, of course, illustrative of the Dramatic 'Works of William Shakspere, are to be comprised. In truth—a noble gallery ! A superb preliminary celebration of the glory of Shakspere's genius —before the actual advent of the date of the grand tercentenary anniversary ! Meanwhile, as an avant courier to this far grander undertaking of the Shakespeare Gallery, there has just now been issued from the press by Mr. Booth, a charming collection of photographs of the seven beautiful pictures by Robert Smirke, illustrative of the immortal description (act ii., sc. vi., of " As you Like it") the wonderful descrip tion of " The Seven Ages of Man" Those Seven Ages dating according to Arnold's Chronicle, ed. 1811, p. 157), the First (" Infancy") from birth to Seven, the Second (" Childhood") to Fifteen, the Third (" Adolescence") to 7wenty - Five, the Fourth (" Youth") to Thirty-Five, the Fifth (" Manhood ") to Fifty, the Sixth (" Maturity") to Seventy,the Seventh and last (" Old Age") leading to Death through second childhood and extreme de crepitude. Prefixed to the little series of these same charming photographs from Smirke's original paintings, are two other photographs represent ing the head of Shakspere. One of them, a minute fac simile of Droeshout's well-known Engraving, the other of a slight outline sketch of the still better known Stratford Bust. As for the seven photographs after Smirke, they are everything that could really be well wished for, in that way, as photographs—having been, every one of them, most carefully, one migbt almost think, tenderly manipulated. It is curious to note, by the way, two very glaring errors of Smirke's own making as an illustration of tie words of Shakspere—mistakes made by Smirke in conse quence of his flourishing himself in an essentially close-shaving age ! One is, his portraiture of the Soldier "bearded like the Pard," as a smooth-faced warrior with the faintest suspicion of the merest hint of a most delicate moustache ! The other being Smirke's still more ridiculous limning of the Justice with " beard of formal cut"—of a cut so formal, indeed, that it (the beard) is cut off altogether! Nothing this Christmas-tide could well have come out more exquisitely a propos, as a little gift book, than this gracefully thought of set of embellishments to one of the most world famous fragments of poetry—" familiar in our mouths as household words"—from the Dramas of Shakspere. Faith—Hope—Charity. Illuminated. By Mrs. F. G. Delamotte. During the last few years there have been issued to the public in this country many brilliant evi dences of the revival of the long-neglected and at one time, indeed, almost abandoned art of illumination. At the head of this revival has unquestionably stood Mr. 0 wen Tones. Others have co-operated in various ways with that eminent master in the art of colouring and general illumi nation, whether as applied to Books or to Build ings, whether in connection with Printing or with Architectural Decorations. And thus—by the combined efforts of many fellow labour ers in the same good and lovely work of illumination, the reviving art has long since begun to flourish anew in earnest. As signally indicative of which, it would really be enough to direct attention—as we have here in truth much pleasure in doing— to these three exquisite exemplars of the artist's cunning skill of hand and exquisite taste as an illuminator. It we were to make a choice of one out of the three, we should be compelled to acknowledge that Mrs. Delamotte has fairly be wildered us ! "Faith" with its deep blue sky studded with golden stars—" Hope" with its delicious sprays of May-blooms, here the pink, here the white blos soming hawthorn—" Charity" garlanded with holly and ivy, the holly with its scarlet, the ivy with its blue-black berries! They are each of them eminently beautiful, and published, as they are, together, they seem to bring out their very dissimilar graces and splendours all the more vividly to the beholder's appreciation by the mere force of contrast. Manhattan—Scraps from his Last Letter. " STILL ALIVE!" The last words that were spoken by the late Daniel Webster were, "I still live." It was con sidered very remarkable at the time that he should have possessed such extraordinary knowledge up to the last moment of his life. The sentence has been preserved by the Whig prosterity, and filed away among the archives of great sayings by our great American men, such as " The Union, it must and shall be preserved "—by Jackson ; "Don't give up the ship "—by Lawrence ; "All men are born free and equal, except niggers "—by Jefferson ; " Mil lions for defence, but not a cent for tribute "—by General Washington. " I shall live," was good in its day. It applied to Webster then; it applies to the great Democratic party now. It has been sup posed to be dying for some months, but it has said "I still live," upon two recent occasions. " EPIGRAM ON OLD ABE." Some months ago the following epigram appeared. It is doubly applicable since the last proclams- ton : " Honest Old Abe, when the war first began, Denied ' Abolition' was part of his plan I Honest Old Abe has since issued decree, The war must go on 'till the slaves are all free. As both can't be honest, will some one tell how, If ' Honest' Abe then, he is Honest Abe now ?" " MR. LINCOLN'S LONG FEATHER." A very curious statement has been made by a person who must be upon excellent terms with Minister Adams. I presume the person is Beecher. He says that when Mr. Seward was absent in the West skylarking with Lord Lyons and the other foreign Ministers, Mr. Lincoln got excited and went to letter-writing. He addressed a letter to Mr. Adams. It contained this : What do the British Government mean ? What do they want ? Do they really want war ? It may be the most disastrous thing in the world for us ; and it is certainly what we most earnestly desire to avoid; but if those rams are permitted to leave England the people will force us into war, whether we wish it or not. We shall not be able to con trol their exasperation, and the British Government ought to understand this. Mr. Adams was delighted at getting a letter in the hand-writing of the President. He called upon Earl Russell and said : I do not call upon your lordship in my official capa city. But 1 have received a plain, outspoken, sincere letter from President Lincoln, which, though addressed to me as a private epistle, and not as an o ffi c i a l docum ent , en t , am sure was not designed to be withh e ld from your know ledge. Earl Russell listened attentively, an d Adams concluded : hones man, as is but t t he honest, straightforward Mr. Lincoln. is not d d i e p a l m n g a c o y ; a your pla in i r b d i suhnitP,' u r r a s m a s f w te a r s th p o rom or u der for the Within twelve hours detention of the rebel 'gated, and feathernever ha i e h disocnaep. t h O a l td he Abe w consi ders t to the President is due the credit o f effecting what l t S o h e c il e a s a r e d long cou ad up until he gets back to Illinois after his Presidency'. The question is—Who made that letter Was it Mi n i ster Adams, or Mr. Liocolnp,uobrlic EP arl Russell ? lam afraid we cannot fasten it upon the British Secretary, as it does not appear that he had a copy furnished to him ; his memory at his age could hardly have retained the exact words. c iur t ~DrE„ (hullo HER MAJESTY.

TRACTION ENGINES ON COMMON ROADS.—A SP' vial meeting of the waywardens of the Faversha l Highway Board was held yesterday for the purpose of COu; sidering a reso l u ti on, o f w hi ch notice had been given f" the previous meeting, to the effect that in the opinion of the Board the us e o f l ocomot i ves on the public highways Its dangerous and inconvenient to the public, and therefore that an application be made to the Home Secretary, unde r the powers of the 24th and 25th of Victoria, cap, 70, to pro' hibit the use of all kinds of locomotives on any highway' whatever within the district. The motion was supported by Mr. Carter, the deputy-chairman, who contended ths t the engines were altogether unsuited to the roads in the district, and that their passage to and fro was exceed ingly dangerous. An animated and lengthened discussion took place, from which it appeared that steam traction an d ploughing engines were now most extensively used in Kest' there being as many as 20 working in that district alone. i t was also contended that there was more danger by 0 1 passing of traction engine s by n i g ht t h an b y day. S ev eral of the owners of the engines, including Messrs. Aveling and Porter, of Rochester, who have made upwards of 100 . of the engines, attend e d, an d argued against the su i c ide course proposed to be adopted. On a division only tw ° hands were held up for th e prohibition, and more than 60 against it, Lord Harris, who is a large Kentish landholde r / voting with the latter. THE QUEEN AS A RULER.—Of the deep an d ready interest which the Queen has manifested ill every great public event, whether calamitous or glorious, which has occurred during her reign, she has given wore than one memorable proof. We most of us remember s r e "' markable letter from her Majesty to Lord Palmerston which was read in the H ouse o f C ommons on the occasion o' , certain Ministerial explanations between that noblema n and Lord John Russell, in which she intimated he r , pleasure that no imp or t an t d espatch should bo issued from the Foreign Office until she should have been made acquainted with its contents, and her pleasure taken thereupon; and it is well known that she required to bc kept thoroughly informed as to the nature and the groundit of every Ministerial decision on the great questions of til° day, so that, without in the least degree hampering th e action of the Cabinet, she might be able to exercise an lade' pendent judgment on the course of affairs, and to discuss them intelligently with her advisers. During the Crimean war her sympathy with each day's tidings was painfully intense ; no one who witnessed it can ever forget the eager ness with which she questioned every competent messengeer from the scene of danger as to all the details of that heroic struggle, and the prompt and spontaneous tenderness with she sought to alleviate the sorrows both of sufferers and mourners can never be effaced from the memories of either. There was a vigilant solicitude in her every word and action throughout that sad and terrible crisis of our history which perhaps did more than any other incident in her reign to endear her to the nation's heart. It was a perfect coin munity of feeling, reaching from the hovel to the throne. Victoria _Magazine for January. A WOMAN KILLED BY HER HUSBAND IN LIVER' POOL.—On Saturday evening last an unfortunate occurrence took place, resulting in the death of a woman named Catherine Lewis, wife of Richard Lewis, a master carter, residing in Church-street, Soho. It appears that on the evening in question Lewis returned home' and found his wife in the yard preparing provender for the horses which ho kept, and the dwelling louse which adjoins the yard being closed, he asked her for the key to open the door, She was then partially intoxicated, and was unable to furnish him with the key, and getting alarmed she ran to her sister's in Bennett-street. The house in the meantime had been entered by means of a ladder, by which a man named Radcliffe, in Lewis's employ, scaled the outer wall, and Lewis then went to his sister-in law's and brought his wife home. Radcliffe and a man named Williams, also employed by Lewis, accompanied the latter into a publichouse, where they had some drink, and the deceased also bad drink in the same place. On reaching home Lewis and the deceased remained together apparently on friendly terms, and nothing more was thought of the unpleasantness which had originally arisen. It seems that Lewis, when alone with his wife, made some further mis understanding with her respecting the disappearance of some bed-clothes, and while she was sitting in a chair ho dealt her a blow on the neck with his hand, which caused her almost instant death. He made every exertion to r evive her, but his efforts being unsucce:sful, he obtained the atten dance of Dr. Taylor, Springfield, but the medical gentleman on his arrival pronounced life to be extinct. Lewis, w h° has been habitually a sober man for a considerable tiw e ' wail deeply affected at the unfortunate issue of the dispute,.Willand when taken into cu s t o dy s h e d t ears cop i ous l y.

A DELIRIUM OF NIGHTMARES.—Every superst i ' tion that has ever disturbed the soul of ignorant man lent some one awful feature to the crowd of hideout; images uprising in this man's mind, Awful Chaldean god s and Carthagenian goddesses thirsting for the hot blood of human sacrifices, greedy for hecatombs of children fig shrieking into fiery furnaces, or torn limb from limb by savage beasts ; Babylonian abominations ; E g yptian Isis °r Osiris ; classical divinities with flaming swords and Pale! impassible faces, rigid as th e d es ti ny w h ose type t h e y were , ghastly Germanic demons and witches—all the dread avengers that man, in the knowledge of his own wicked ness, has ever shadowed for himself out of the darkness of his ignorant mind, sw4lled that ghastly crowd until the artist's brain reeled, and he was fain to sit with his head 112 his hands, trying, by a great effort of :the will, to exorcise these loathsome phantoms,--Miss Braddon's John March- mont's Legacy. - BAVARIAN MORALITY AND INFANT MORTALITY• —ln Lower Bavaria, illegitimate births are one in four ; in the Palatinate, where freedom from vexatious laws (through the introduction of the Code Napoleon) produces a less proportion of crime, more contentment, and far greater prosperity, they are one in nine—and in Saxony and Prus sia, one in 13. In Munich, in one year, there were 1,76 2 legitimate and 1,702 illegitimate births—nor is it rare for the illegitimate births in one month to exceed the legiti mate. But the worst side disclosed by these statistics is the proportion of deaths. In the whole of Bavaria more die under 14 than over—and the number that die beforeijuber e c a h a il e d h r i e t z! attaining one year is four times as great as t d il: between which comes next to it, grown-up people who 9, 60 and dan7do.onlTyh6a2t,oiso,oinpeornaaenyselmoovreer tlhie.inwas6Ofl the greatest dren 63,000 were under one year, EAGLE.— tw O ee ri n 60 and 70.—Wilberforee's Social number of deaths above 14 were IG,iofooeLOwln,:::. of U . aptain Martin, and MUTINY ON BOARD TOE p u e n o z p c l 4 o . : e w r E i t l e c a a n r da g e grot cargo, : f sa w a ca les i da ch illri b : l nig es t ilinutoainrryivoend vessel . of a lt b i a o u n t t , l s a 9 y o last s 6 t o t o h t e o n G s, o t l u d s e n p r 0 p 2, chartered b la y ar A ng l e e m s o s a r f : mt • for Sydney with a g . 0 1 1 ees . 0 a she returned 'MPerosoelye and Co. were the const,, . cr Sunday . andii t h e evenin t , the crew was taken into cus tody on a c the at t h h i e gh pa s l e i a c s e .. 0 ffi A c b e o i u n t D se a v l e e n , o'clock Captaj d the statement which led to the interference stated that a day or two after he left the ship was off the coast of Wales, some distastreet,nceLiverpool, o lf d rcow m eni.h a esnH e eee requesting t o Holyhead, the crew mustered and came aft, him. He asked whether they had any complaint to make, and said if they had he would take it down upon his official slate for transfer to the log. They did not, however, make any complaint, but returned for a short time forward. Afterwards they again came aft, seized the captain, tied him with a rope, placed him in his state room, and stationed a sentry at the door. At tho same time they secured the two mates: They then reversed the course of the ship and came back to Liverpool, keeping the captain a prisoner until their arrival in the Mersey, Soon after the vessel entered the river a boat came off, and the steward, acting under the captain's orders, got the boatman on board. The captain lay upon the table in the cabin and feigned sleep, while the steward got the log-book and other documents, tied them about him, and got into ithe boat, leaving a rope hanging over the ship's side as he did so. The captain then jumped up, rushed past the sentry, got upon deck, slipped over the side into the boar, and escaped to shore. Upon the receipt of this information at the po lice-station, Inspector Horne, Inspector Cairns, Detective Beattie, and 12 constables went off to the Golden Eagle, and there took into custody ten of the crew. , Yesterday the ten men were brought up at the police-court, when the captain's statement was received, aid the case adjourned.
