Fried Brill. been an ordinary one the frost would have made the passage of Russian columns from one point to an other comparatively easy. As it is they have the utmost difficulty in reaching the places threatened or held by the rebels, who, untroubled by baggage, disperse out of the woods and re-form, whilst the Russians are struggling with the muddy roads. This peculiar character of the struggle makes it extremely difficult to obtain accurate information of its inci dents. The want of information as to the extension proves nothing, for the RussianGoverument has the power of giving or withholding all intelligence in its own hands. The insurgents cmn have no communica tion with their countrymen in arms in other parts of the king loin, or with sympathisers in Austrian and Prussian provinces. The Prussian Government persists in the policy which is earning it the indig nant protests of its own subjects and the decisive condemnation of Europe. Its Polish provinces are put under precautions which amount to little less than a state of siege. The Government has fur bished up all its old engagements with Russia—en gagements which of late years have been silently violated ; political fugitives are to be given up ; no Pole is allowed to enter Prussian territory unless his passport is vised by a Prussian consul. The frontiers are closely watched, and the new conven tion coming into play, the Russians are said to have already pursued fugitives into Prussia, and have been aided by the Prussians; and on the other I - , and, to have been received when themselves fugi tives, and safely escorted back to a Russian post. Actual intervention for the suppression of the re bellion in the kingdom of Poland cannot be laid to the charge of the Prussian Government, but we doubt whether it will shrink from that step. The House of Deputies has indeed already informally censured and is about to formally condemn its policy. In the debate raised upon the question as I I to the existence of the convention add res sed to Herr ' Von Bismark Schonhausen, which he refused to answer, not a voice was raised to defend the policy of the convention, whilst it found eloquent reproba tion. The Liberal party has now presented a mo tion declaring that Prussia ought not to interfere at all between Russia and the Poles, and should equally disarm Russian and insurgent fugitives. It has been adopted by the committee to which it was referred, and it will be adopted by the house. But what care the Ministers for the , votes of the house ? They have done without its sanction to the budget ; they laugh at personally respon past year ; and they will ot its the resolutions x treat with contempt its interference on this matter. pendit d u e r c e declaring theta them Nor is it probable that the remonstrances of Eng land and France will have much effect.

The screw steam sloop Alert, 17, having received considerable repairs at No. 4 dock at Devonport, was hauled yesterday morning into the north basin, to be rigged for the first division of the steam reserve. It is reported at Devonport that the screw steam ship Liverpool, 51, will shortly be ordered to be brought forward for commission. In our notice yesterday of the Channel fleet now lying at Spithead, we referred to the rumours cur rent relative to an alle g ed looseness of the armour plates of the iron ships, the result of the length ened trials to which they have been subjected since being placed in commission. A visit to Spithead yesterday by a Portsmouth correspondent enables us to state that rumour, as is generally the case, had much exaggerated the facts, and that the ships do not, so far as can thus be superficially seen, present any particular appearance beyond what may be expected from ships returning to port after a lengthened experimental cruise. Whe ther any defects of this kind exist or not, however, in reality, can only be ascertained when they are placed in dock, which we presume will be on their return westward from the Nora. The Warrior ap pears still to maintain her pre-eminence, not only as the fastest ship under steam in the navy, but also in the general condition of her hull and machinery. Here there is certainly no sign of loose plates, while the waterways and deck planking are all as firm and perfect as on the first day she went to sea. The condition of the paper on the bulkheads of the officers' cabins is as smooth and free from cracks or disturbance of any kind as when first put on ; and this fact alone certainly goes far to prove that, whatever weather the ship has gone through since last leaving England, her frame cannot have ex hibited anything like the amount of straining or working of parts as would undoubtedly have been the case with a wooden ship. The captain and officers of the Warrior declare her to be now so f ar free from any serious defects that she only needs filling up with coal and provisions to proceed at once from Spithead on a three years' cruise to any part of the world. Rear-Admiral the Hon. George Grey, Admiral- Superintendent of Portsmouth Docky ard, last even ing hauled down his flag, and will be succeeded in his duties this morning by Rear-Admiral Elliot. The gallant Admiral was much esteemed by all under his command. Yesterday the whole of the clerks employed in the dockyard signed the follow ing address, which they presented to the Admiral through his secretary : " Portsmouth Dockyard, Feb. 24. " Sir,--- On your relinquishing command as Superinten dent of this establish men t, we canno t r efrain from availing ourselves of the opp or tu n it y o f mos t re spectfully expressing our appreciation of th e cour t esy an d kindness which we , as clerks of this d o cky ar d , have at all times e x p erienced at your hands.

"In conclusion, we beg to offer most earnest wishes for your future welfare, whether i n p r ivate life, or in the more active employment of th a t service of w hi c h you are so dis guished a member. - " We have the honour to be, air, your most obedient ser. vents. " To Rear-Admiral the lion. G. Grey." The Admiral expressed a wish to see these gentle men, and thanked them, stating that he felt leaving Portsmouth much. The following notification is published for the information of the naval officers attending the levees at the Admiralty :-- "Officers who apply personally for permission to attend the Fir, t Lord's levees are requested to see that their Chris tian names and seniority are correctly inserted in the levee book. Agents applying on behalf of a client must produce a written memorandum (which will be retained in office) from the officer himself, stating his wish and intention to be present, and care should be taken that the rank, Chris tian names, and seniority of the Officer be correctly aad clearly stated." The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Dr. Alexander Crosbie, assist.- surg., to the Terror; J. Knight, acting Ist class as as&st.-engineer, to the Cumberland, for the Erne; A. G. Smith, and J. 0. Wilson, acting 2d-class as sist.-engineers, to the Fisgaid, as supernumeraries; and Henry Mackavoy, acting 2 d-class assist.-engi neer to the Cumberland, as supernumerary. taken in the Army Estimates, just published, for the erection of separate quarters for the married troops belonging to the infantry at Chatham, and that, too, although the subject has been pressed on the attention of the authorities of the War Depart ment year after year for some time past. A short time since a Board, composed of the principal offi cers of the garrison reported str o n g ly in favour of providing additional quarters for the married non commissioned officers and troops at Chat ham, but, although separate establishments of the kind have been provided at the same garrison for the mar ried men of the Royal Artillery and Royal En gineers, nothing has been done for the married troops of the line. However unsatisfactory it may appear, it is nevertheless the fact that although at nearly all other garrisons the married men are separated from the single troops, at Chatham, the most important of our military stations for keeping up a supply of troops, the married soldier is in this respect no better off than he was half a century since, married and unmarried soldiers all herding together in the same barrack rooms, simply because Government has not yet provided separate quarters for the married men. Now that a suitable building will be at the disposal of the Government, which at a moderate outlay can be adapted to the purpose, it is to be hoped that no official impediments will arise to prevent the proposal being carried into effect— in which case a very great boon will be conferred on thAnost valuable portion of the troops at Chat ham—namely, the married non-commissioned offi cers and men. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TratEs.—The motion of Sir John Hay last night was but the expression of a deep, a lasting, and, as it seems to us, an unavoidable discontent. When the tired, soured, desponding naval profession, straitened by lack of means, heart-sick with de ferred hope, galled by the indifference of society to its wrongs, unheaves itself with a groan, Parlia ment echoes for a night at least with the sound. It is the everlasting complaint of men who find them selves compulsorily idle without the competence which can make leisure enjoyable, who are in the service of the State, and must remain at its beck and call, foregoing all other pursuits, but are at the same time insufficiently provided with occupation and pay, and who know that the object of their boyish hopes—rank and fame and social position— will only come to them when their heads arc gray, when the chilled soul can no longer take pleasure in such vanities, and the feeble body is bending to the grave. Sir John Hay's motion was, in fact, to submit to Parliament the " Suggestions for increas ing the efficiency of the Navy," which, together with a memorandum of the Duke of Somerset, con demning them, have just been printed. Some time since a considerable number of the profession, con ceiving that the time had come when some appeal should be made for a more logical and liberal sys tem of promotion and pay, agreed to state their grievances and submit a scheme for remedying them to the Admiralty. A committee of naval officers drew up the " Suggestions" which formed the basis of Sir J. Hay's motion. These provided, among other matters, that a compulsory retirement at a certain age should be impartially applied to all ranks, with earlier optional retirement ; that a longer minimum period of sea service should be required in the ranks below that of captain to qualify an officer for promotion to a higher active list; that there should be " a sufficient scale of full, half, and retired pay to enable officers to serve their country without incurring debt, and to retire with a full remune ration for their services ;" that. there should be such a reduction of the numbers on the active lists as may insure the efficiency of officers by frequent employ ment ; and that the entry of cadets should be regu lated according to the vacancies which might have occurred during the preceding year on the active lists of lieutenants, so that no accumulation ofjunior officers without opportunity or hope of employment might occur in future, On these " Suggestions" we commented some two months since, and expressed an opinion that their general purport was only to do justice to a hardworking and underpaid service. The Duke of Somerset, on the other hand, has writ ten against them a vigorous Memorandum, which has prevailed with the Admiralty for reasons that we should be the last to disparage. The fact is that his Grace and Sir John Hay look at the question from two opposite points. ,The former sees only the interests, or the supposed interests, of the coun try, and has the fear of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer before his eyes. The latter is full of the in justice suffered by Naval officers, and cannot imagine that gentlemen and zealous servants of their coun try ought to be kept at a starving-point, and occa sionally brought to utter ruin. However, we have so much sympathy with the service, and are so fully convinced that justice to it will be the best policy for the country, that we cannot but rejoice that Sir John Hay brought his resolution before the house, and compelled the Government to concede a Select Committee to inquire into naval promotion and re tirement. Lord Palmerston expressed a not unrea sonable feeling when, like the Duke of Somerset, he protested against the members of the two ser vices combining to petition the Crown or agitate Parliament for pecuniary advantages or professional advancement. But in truth they had no alterna• tire, if they entertained any -hope of redress for evils and absurdities which have become so great that the service must suffer seriously unless they be remedied. Sir J. Hay showed conclu sively that the higher ranks of the naval service are underpaid, not only in comparison with military and civil personages, but with regard to what is ex pected of them . in the way of decent state and hospi tality. To come to a practical instance, there is the Naval Commander-in-Chief on the Indian station. Until lately he received £4,500 a year. He is now cut down to £2,190. "There is no officer of the Crown in the East," said Sir J. Hay, " holding a corresponding rank, who is not paid double the sum given to the Naval Commander-in-Chief. The Lieu tenant-Governor of Hongkong receives £5,000 a year ; the generals commanding at Madras and Bombay between £7,000 and £B,OOO ; and the Com mander-in-Chief in India about £10,000." Who can wonder, then, that there was much difficulty in fill ing the post, and that its present occupant talks of resigning on account of the insufficiency of the pay ? The statement is fully in accordance with what is generally known concerning naval commands. The post-captain who is appointed to a fine line-of-battle ship or frigate must now be prepared to pay out of his own pocket for the honour of serving his coun try. We have heard of men who have had to trench very largely on their own private means in the course of two or three years' command. Lisbon, Naples, Malta, Corfu, the Havannah, and other well-known ports, makes serious inroads on a cap tain's pay and allowances, not to mention that he must keep a decent table every day of the year from the time he enters his ship to the time he quits it. A poor man, consequently, when the six years' ser vice as post-captain necessary for his succession to admiral's rank are finished, avoids employment, " because he cannot afford it." And this is cer tainly a reductio ad absurdum of the whole system. Connected with this subject, but far more com plicated, are the questions of promotion and re tirement. We will not go into them, since they re quire more space than a newspaper can afford ; but it does seem reasonable that when 1,200 officers are more or less discontented with things as they are, there should be some inquiry by an impartial tri bunal. Such an inquiry will, no doubt, now be made, and it will be for the House of Commons to decide between the arguments of the Naval Officers and those of the Admiralty speaking through its First Lord. We much fear, however, that many of the grievances lie in the nature of our naval service, and that, whatever changes may be effected, will always have a strong body of murmurers.

True, it precipitated an in surrection which had long been organising, and com pelled the Poles to rise before their preparations were completed, but it has revived for them the long dormant sympathy of Europe, has already obtained the diplomatic intervention of the Western Powers in their favour, and may possibly obtain them even more substantial aid from the same quarter. More over, it is questionable whether they could have selected a more favourable time for rising. They might, by waiting, have succeeded in smuggling into the country a large stock of arms, their organi sation might have been completed, and they would have taken the field better prepared to encounter the Russian army. But, on the other hand, no time could be less favourable for the Russian Go vernment than the present.

It has, accordingly, been suggested that the hospital should be converted into quarters for the married troops belonging to the British and East India depots at Chatham, a purpose for which its size and situation eminently adapt it, whil e the ex• P ense of converting it into the prop ose d quar ters would be trifling as compared with the cost of erect ing a new building of the kind proposed.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and a Special Jury.) EPPS V. MORRIS. This was a singular case. It was an action by a medical man to recover from the defendant for at tendances upon a lady to whom he had been married. The defence was that at the time he married her she was married to another person then still living, so that her second marriage was bigamous and void. To this it was replied that the defendant had held her out as his wife to the world, and that therefore he was as much liable for her necessary debts as if she was really his wife. Mr. Sergeant Parry and Mr. A. Wills were for the plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant Ballantine and Mr. J. Brown were for the defendant. _ _ The history of the case is remarkable. In 1841 the lady, at the early age of 17, was married to her first husband, from whom a few years afterwards she was divorced a mensa et thoro. In 1846 she went through the ceremony of marriage with the defendant, who knew the fact of the former mar riage, but supposed that the divorce dissolved the marriage, and made her free to marry again. They lived together as man and wife until the year 1854. They then separated, and she has since lived by herself in lodgings, bearing his name and having an allowance from him—first of not less than £l,OOO, then of £5OO, and ultimately of £250 a year. This money was sent to her down to the present time by the defendant's attorney, under the name of Mrs. Morris. The plaintiff's bill was £127 for attendance during the years 1861 and 1862. The fact that the former, or rather the true, husband was alive at the time of the second marriage was proved. It did not appear that the plaintiff knew of the defendant's marriage with the lady, but he said he knew her as Mrs. Morris. The lady was not called as a witness. At the close of the plaintiff's ease The Lord Chief Justice said he do . ubted whether there was any case to go to the jury. The divorce was not a vinculo matrzmonsi, but only a mensa et thoro, and the defendant was not living with the lady at the time. Mr. Sergeant Parry strongly urged that there was evidence that the defendant allowed her to bear his name, and thus held her out to the world as his wife. The Lord Chief Justice observed that the plaintiff could see that the lady (even if he supposed her to be married) was living apart from her husband, and that should have put him upon inquiry. However, he would not withdraw the case from the jury. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine briefly addressed the jury for the defendant, dwelling strongly on the tact that the plaintiff knew nothing of the defen dant and made no inquiries after a husband. Mr. Sergeant Parry addressed the jury forcibly in reply on the part of the plaintiff. fie Urged that here there had been an actual marriage between the parties, and they had lived together for years as man and wife, and the defendant to this very time recognised her and addressed her by his name, nor had ho ever publicly in any way disavowed the marriage. That being so, he had sent her into the world clothed as a wife was with his credit. It was quite different from the ordinary case of a mistress. The Lord Chief Justice, in summing up the case to the jury, said the sole question for them was whether at the time of the attendances the defen dant allowed the lady to hold herself out as his wife. No doubt ns long as they were living together that would be so. But so soon as a man separated him self from a mistress and ceased to live with her, of course that implied holding her out as his wife was put an end to. The question was whether, when a tradesman or a medical man found a woman living by herself, and chose to trust her without making any inquiry, he could make liable for her debt s any one with whom she had formerly lived as h is mistress. It had not appeared that the plaintiff knew, as a fact, the actual marriage between the parties. The jury at once found for the defendant. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Guildhall, before the Lord Chief Baron and a Special Jury.) BEVAN V. THE COUNTESS OF WALDEGRAVE. Mr. Karslake, Q.C., the Hon. G. Denman, Q.C., and Mr. E. V. Millen were counsel for the plain tiff; Mr. Montague Smith, Q.C., Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. Henry James, Q.C., and Mr. C. Brown (Chancery Bar) appeared for the defendant. This was an action against the Countess of Wal degrave, in her representative capacity as admini stratrix of the late earl, her husband, to recover a sum of £1,500, The plaintiff was formerly the solicitor of Lord Waldegrave, but ceased to be so in the year 1842, when a Mr. Pearson, an attorney, and a Dr. Daniel investigated the accounts between his lordship and the plaintiff, and determined that the former should pay to the latter a sum of £2,200. Instead of a payment being made in cash, Lord and Lady Wal degrave assigned to the plaintiff the next presenta tion of the living of Borley, in Essex, by deed, which covenanted among other things that if the plaintiff should be prevented, from any cause, from presenting on the next vacancy he should be paid £1,500. In addition to the deed the plaintiff re ceived the celebrated silver bell by Cellini, which was valued at £350, and his lordship's promissory note for £650, making altogether an equivalent to £2,500. On the death of the late incumbent of Borley, the presentation not falling into the hands of the plaintiff, he brought the present action for a breach of the covenant. For the defence it was stated that the deed had been given up by the plaintiff to the defendant. In the accounts between the late Earl and the plaintiff a bill of exchange for £1,160, which was then out standing, had not been included. This was drawn by the plaintiff, accepted by the late lord, and en dorsed to Mr. Lahee, who discounted it, giving value for it to the plaintiff. Mr. Lahee brought an action against Lord Waldegrave on the bill, the plaintiff being also liable. In consideration of Lady Wal degrave paying the amount to Lahee, the plaintiff gave up to her ladyship the deed granting the pre sentation. In the settlement of accounts between Pearson, Daniel, and the plaintiff, the latter had omitted his liability upon the bill, having, in fact, received the money and not paid it over to Lord Waldegrave. A great deal of documentary evidence was put in on either side during the trial, and it is unneces sary to hamper the facts of the case with it now. Mr. Beavan was called and said—l was solicitor to the late Lord Waldegravc from 1838 to 1842, and was intimately acquainted with him down to the time of his marriage with the Countess. He was always in embarrassed cireuntstances,. an. advanced him moneys for the purpose of paying o u t executions. All these transaction s are contained in a deed of release of 18 45 . In 1840 his lordship went to Scotland. There were at that time some e popreoe ceedings pending relati ve to an assault in which Capt.

Lord Waldegrave came to town in March, 1841, and proceedings for the assault upon the police were continued and came on for trial at the Queen's Bench, and, under the advice of his counsel, he pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to six months' imprisonment, with a fine of £2OO. The imprisonment Lord Waldegrave underwent. I ad vanced the money for the fine. Mr. Karslake read the deed of release executed between the witness and Lord Waldegrave on the settlement of accounts between them. Mr. Montague Smith cross examined the plaintiff, who said—When Lady Waldegrave was sued upon s t a h i e d X t l h , a l t 6O t h b e i l d l , e her w l lady ys mine,ip s b solicitor, er i Ns_ r . s e d a , r n .s o i e n d , that Lord Waldegrave had the money, and the fact never was contested. At the time of the trial for the assault on the police Lord Waldegrave screened other parties more culpable than himself, as he said he would suffer any privation rather than give up their names. I first heard of the death of the in. eumbent of Borley in 1862, but I had previously tried to sell the presentation. The evidence on both sides having been concluded, Mr. M. Smith summed up the defendant's evi. deuce. Mr. Karslake replied upon the whole case. His Lordship summed up, and the jury found for the defendant. Several points of law are reserved for future dis cussion. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—Feb. 24. (Before the Assistant-Judge.) CONVICTION OF NOTORIOUS FELONS. John Barker, aged 49, and William Davis, 26, were indicted for feloniously receiving four tab:e cloths, and other articles, the property of George Wallace, welt knowing the same to have been stolen. Mr. Orridge prosecuted; Mr. Cooper defended Barker ; Davis was undefended. Evidence having been adduced, his lordship summed up, and the jury found the prisoners guilty. Mr. Orridge said that Davis was a ticket-of-leave man, he having been tried at the Westminster Sessions on the 14th of August, 1857, and sentenced to be kept in penal servitude, which sentence was not yet expired. George Lockyer, the prison officer, proved that since Davis had been liberated with a ticket-of leave he had been twice convicted, and sentenced on each occasion to he imprisoned for three months. The Assistant-Judge said he should like to know if anything was known as to Barker. Inspector Defter, of the S division, said he had known him for 10 years, and had seen him re peatedly in the company of thieves, coiners, and burglars of the worst description. He was connected with the thieves engaged in Lord Foley's robbery, and with Greene and another, who were convicted of burglary and assaulting an old lady at Padding ton-green, and sentenced to be kept to penal servi tude for life. His house had been watched for years as a place where stolen goods were received. The Assistant-Judge sentenced each of the pri soners to 10 years' penal servitude. A JUVENILE CRIMINAL. Henry Spinks, 12, was indicted for stealing 10 boxes, an egg cup, and other articles, of the value of 175., the property of the justices of the peace for the county of Middlesex. He pleaded guilty. The prisoner was tried in this court, convicted, and sentenced to be kept in Feltham Reformatory for three years. Before that period had expired he absconded from the school, but subsequently re turned and stole the articles in question. Captain Brooks, superintendent of Feltham In dustrial School, said the term for which prisoner was sent there was not expired by six months, but he had broken out and had got away. After he left he stole some tools, and having drilled holes with a bit round a panel, he was able to push it through. He committed offences frequently while he was in the school. In June he broke into the housekeeper's room, and stole several articles from a closet under very aggravated circumstances. In October he ab sconded, taking with him several articles of clothing, and in December last he was punished for stealing a pair of boots from the shoemaker's shop. In con sequence of his very bad character, they would not receive him back into the reformatory. The Assistant Judge sentenced the prisoner to be kept in penal servitude for three years, which sen tence would be accompanied by a recommendation that he should be sent to Parkhurst Prison, where the discipline is more rigid than in a reformatory.

STATE OF TRADE. 'MANCHESTER, FEB. 24.—The yarn market has been very flat, and we have scarcely any business for any quarter. In some cases prices have been rather easier. There has been a trifling inquiry for some kinds of mule yarns for India, but the prices offered have been very low, and it has led to a very little business. The dullness, in fact, almost amounts to a suspension of business. A report is in circula tion that the last mail steamer from America brought an answer for the Government of France to the Emperor's offers of mediation, in which Mr. Se cretary Seward rejects altogether t he propositions made in the despatch sent to M. Mercier. As an instance of the strong feeling which prevails her! as to the probable long duration of the struggle in America, it is stated that a spinner here declared his intention, in addition to closing his two mills, to sell off his horses and carriages, break up his house hold establishment, and go into lodgings, to live as economically as possible until there is a prospect of a better supply of cotton and a prospect of re suming business with some chance of profit. He is said to have declared that he could not use Surat cotton for the class of yarn to which his machinery was adapted, The business in cloth to-day has been quite as flat as that in yarns. Since Saturday there has been a rather better feeling, with some inquiry, but it has not led to business, and the stag nation has increased day by day. Any sales forced on the market this morning must necessarily have taken place at prices favourable to the buyer. It was hoped that the recent advices from India would lead to some improvement, but they seem to have had little effect beyond the sales mentioned in Friday's report, and even these turn out not to have been for shipment, but on l y with a view to hold as a speculation. What transactions are tre ported are confined to s mall purchases of a few hun dred pieces of standard makes stionr a ssorted orders, o rders without and for which there are p li m its as to prices. The total stock g of cotton at Liverpool continues rather large compared with the present rate of demand. At the close of last week it was 415,000 bales, or equal to about 26 weeks consumptio n a t 16,000 bales per week. The quan tity at se.' (East Indian) was 182,000 bales, against 140,000 at the same time last year. Less than 20 weeks' supply was considered good when the pro dection was fully equal to the whole consuming power of the country, and many of our spinners think that the present stock should keep prices at Liverpool more in check. It is evident that con sumers are buying very moderately at the present high rates, and many people think it is equally clear that, with the heavy stock of goods still on hand, the out-turn of the mills yet working is larger than will find its way into consumption at the present high range of prices. An illustration of the way in which dear calico is stimulating the trade in woollen fabrics (to say nothing of linen, silk, and mixed goods), has transpired in a local cir cumstance of some novelty. It has been long a cus tom (more peculiar to Lancashire and Yorkshire perhaps than to other counties) to st uff beds with woollen flocks instead of feathers. When wool engaged in hunting up woollen either buying them from the owners or sum of money to be allowed to take out these flocks and substitute for them cotton flocks or some other material of less value. It will be seen by the pro ceedings of the Central Relief Committee yesterday that the gradual but considerable decrease of pau perism evident from Mr. Commissioner Farnall's reports is not due entirely to the resumption of factory labour, though there is no doubt a larger number of mills now working than before Christ mas. The decrease, however, is partly due to the increase of work for out door labourers, whose sup port has been thrown upon the parishes and relief committees during the winter, but upon whom the mild and open weather of the present early spring isnow enabling to find employment. The cotton sup ply question still appears to wait a solution. It seems to be generally admitted that the answer• given by the President of the Board of Trade to the proposition of the member for Devonshire on Friday night. was based to some extent ou sound seem mic views. No doubt, any attempt through Go vernment encouragement to stimulate the growth of cotton would be most unwelcome to the cotton companies already formed ; but still the public mind is not wholly satisfied with this answer. Many people here would regard the efforts of those companies with far more satisfaction were they of a magnitude more proportioned to the evil they are intended to cure. Unfortunately, they are generally regarded at present as on a scale far from likely to afford means proportioned to the end. Meantime one of the greatest indus tries the world over saw is at stake. LEEDS, 24th.—There is no new feature portance to notice in the woollen cloth trade of this town and district. The markets in the cloth halls have been of a moderate character this morning. All things considered, a fair amount of business was done in spring goods, and a few parcels of light fabrics for summer wear were also purchased- The demand for ordinary broadcloths was dull. The price of wool and other materials keeping very firm, there is no change to notice in the general quotations of goods. NOTTINGHAM, 24th.—There was a pretty good attendance on 'Change to-day, but the demand for lace yarns was slow. On the whole, however, a moderate share of business was done, and prices were about the same as on Friday. Silk remains without any material change. Hosiery yarns were firm. Brown nets are still a slow sale, the low prices offered being a great check to business. ROCHDALE, 23d.—Both the flannel and the wool markets have been rather quiet to-day. Fewer goods were purchased than ordinarily, and the most of those sold were low qualities. Wools are stiffly held, but manufacturers buy slowly, and mostly to complete orders Ns hich they have in hand. The demand for Yorkshire goods has slightly declined, and to effect sales in some instances a slight reduc tion in price has had to be submitted to. ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY. A crowded meeting of this society was held on Monday evening—Sir R. L Murchison, K.C.8., President, in the chair. Among those present were —The Earl of Cavan, Lady Franklin and Miss Cracroft, Captain and Lieut. Maury, Sir E. Belcher, Sir T. Fremantle, Comte D'Escayrac de Lautnre, Professor and Mrs. Ramsay, M. Otto Torell, Sir G. Pollock, Mr. M. Milnes, M.P., M. Du Chaillu, Sir C. Rawlinson, the Master of Trinity, Captain and Lady Lluellyn, Sir H.Verney, M.P., Sir H. Straoey, M.P., Mr. Russell, M.P., Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P., Mr. Gregson, M.P. The first paper read was, " On Rupert Land, the Colony, and its limits," by Captain Millington H. Synge, R.E,, F.R.G.S. Captain Synge described the first boundaries of Rupert Land, and the nature of the charter granted to the " Company of Adven turers trading to Hudson Bay," from which it would appear that Rupert Land was merely given in trust for the purpose of prosecuting the discovery of a new passage to the South Sea. He also endeavoured to show, from geographical description and from history, that it does not include the territories of the Red River and the Saskatchewan, a question of importance now that the communication between British Columbia and Canada being about to bo opened up, the transition of the country from a hunting ground to a colony will, as a matter of course, follow. Dr. TRAVERS Twrss, F.R.G.S., said if the Hod-. son Bay Company had power under their charter to throw impediments in the way of a passage across their territory, there was a higher power in this country which would remove them, and therefore he saw no reason for despair as to the accomplish ment of the objLct in view. In discussing the legal effect of the charter, Dr. Twies remarked upon the difficulties which frequently arose in reference to questions of boundary, owing to the practice of di plomatists to select a river as the boundary line, which when traced to its source caused the greatest confusion. This very difficulty arose between our selves and the United States in settling the Oregon boundary in 1840. The grant to the Hudson Bay Company contained the words " land upon the rivers," and such a phrase either in a treaty or a grant was always assumed to mean all the land up to the head waters of the river. The grant was limited if it turned out to conflict with prior pos session by other countries. Dr. Twiss then briefly reviewed the provisions of the treaties of Ryswick and Utrecht, under which the French ceded to us their possessions in North America ; and he pointed out on the map the boundary lines that Were then agreed upon between two countries. He submitted that these treaties threw light upon the meaning of the charter,which granted to the Hudson Bay Com pany the land on all the rivers flowing into Hudson Bay and Hudson Straits. Finally, he spoke in commendation of the policy pursued by the Hud son Bay Company, so far as regards their trading relations with the Indians, and remarked upon the great prospective importance of the territory held by them. Dr. N. SHAW then read the second paper, " On the e whole dischargeßink ofre eGreenland. water andf.rom Th the Greenland Greenland, through springs underneath the ice," by Dr. H. it be calculated to be more than 300,000 square miles, and is probably divided by a mountain range run ning from north to south. There being also reason to believe that this water parting lies nearer to the east than west side, Dr. Rink assumes that 200,000 out of the 300,000 square miles discharge their waters into Davis' Straits and Baffin's Bay. Every moun tain river, the upper p ar t g a ice, s till continues to move, but thi s turnedgla c glacier r into bein change does not affect all the water contained in the original river, some part of it continuing to flow in a liquid state either on the top of the glacier or un derneath it. Wherever the inland ice reaches the sea, having a perceptible motion out into it, there is always observed a motion in th e water, in front of the outer edge of the solid ice, like that of large springs issuing from the bottom. The water looks as if it were boiling, and myriads of sea-birds are continually seen to hover about, diving after food in the brackish water. But the most remarkable thing is, that a lake lying close up to the ico at some distance from the sea presents phenomena similar to those in the sea in front of the ice. Dr. Rink thinks that much valuable information would result Iron a cat eful inspection of these and similar phenomena. The PRESIDENT said Dr. Rink had brought for ward the most convincing proofs of what had been established by the labours of Agassiz, Forbes, Charpenter, &c., that glaciers were simply frozen rivers. These investigations were also ixportunt as throwing light upon the former condition of the northern parts of Scotland, which at one time re sembled the present condition of Greenland. Professor Ramsay and Dr. Robert Chambers also offered observations upon the glacier theory, and after some remarks from Dr. Rae and Col. Shaffner, whenthome p et a i p n e g rs ad o j n ou t r h n e e d r e to ce Monday, t explorations o o f f A s i t a u r a e r li t: Landsborough, "MAinlay, &c., in Australia will be read.
