Tiro Llewelyn Quarry is a part of a Sett of Thirty _.ores, ill the Parish. of Llanilechil, Carnarvonshire, at the of the Llewelyn nountain, six miles from the Port of Bangor, a Lea us of whL:ll, 10r Twenty-nine Years, has been secured at the usual Royalty. The Sett comprises 12 Acres of Slate and about 20 Acres for the deposit of waste, and adjoins the Estate of Colonel the Ilonourabls Edward Douglas Gordon Pennant, M.P. The Hate Bed or L(Kle being a continuation of the great Roofing Slate formation worked by him at the celebrated Penrhyn Quarry, from which the Llewelyn Quarry is distant about half-a-mile'. It will be a matter of suprise to the public to find that a Quarry immediately adjoining the P..nrhyn Quarry, which for the last twenty years or more has yielded a profit of upwards of 80,0001. per annum, should now be in the market : the circumstance is, how ever, thus accounted for. In the Valley at the foot of the Penrhyn Quarry, close to the River Ogwen and the Turnpike-road, the course of the Slate has been diverted from a straight line by the upri,ing of a huge mass of Green Stone, throwing a portion of the Slate Bed or Lode which is he-e about 500 yards wide to the north-west ; this western branch passes under the village or Bethesda, close to which are the Pandraineog and Coytmor Quarries, now in full operation ; the other portion of the Bed keeps its original course, about iiorth-east, and dips under a lolly ridge of Millar er Clay Slate, and has hitherto been lost to the miner and geologist. It has, however, lately been d scovered, that on the north side of the lianas ridge the Reofiag Slate lies cnly about four fathoms below the surface. The discovery was made a few weeks since by sinking a shaft about two.thirds down the slope of the ridge or mountain, below which point there is sufficient fall for the deposit of waste, and every facility for working a Quarry oa an extensive scale. The Slate is of the fittest quality and colour. In three months sufficient Slate Rock may be cleared of the over lying Rifles to supply from fifty to 100 Quarrymen and Dressers, and a further extent of ground progressively opened. The Slate raised it the Llanberis and Penrhyn Quarries leaves a profit of at :cast 100 per cent. on the Labour Cost ; and this Quarry when opened, if worked with skill and energy, cannot fail to be equally profitab:e.

CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the rep- rt, which is too lengthy for publication : • During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Englon::, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/. —making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1:49, and the 31st of \lay, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. ProposiVs were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 12 comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1231. Gs. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon shish 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums Since the commencement-of the Company to the Itt of Tone last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. lie. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,990/. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. ls., leaving the yearly income on the let of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. 11d. since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. 1 Is. 10d. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who. under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Pails, the Cardinal Archbish p of Lyons, and Monseigneur Par.sis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con• siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thenks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prosi..ects.

BANQUET TO RAILWAY DIRECTORS.

Ring and Brymer ;. and, usual, the "loving cup" was passed round. After the usual loyal toasts, the LORD MAYOR pro posed " The Army and Navy," to which Colonel Sir FREDERICK SMITH and the HOD. Captain CARNEGIE responth-d. The LORD MAYOR then proposed " The health of his Excellency the American Minister and the other Ambassadors from Foreign Courts." His Lordship highly complimented Mr. Lawrence upon the manner in which he had fulfilled his mission at this Court, and expressed great gratification at his presence upon this occasion. The toast was most warmly applauded. Mr. ABBOT LAWRENCE, the American Minister, ho was received with cheers, said,—l thank you for the courtesy and very kind manner in which you have received the toast, and on the part of my colleagues whose health has also been drunk, I beg, with myself, to effer you, my Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, our united thanks. I am here to•day by your invitation, my Lord; and although I am proud to be here, because I feel it to be a great distinction and a sincere com pliment to my country that my health has been drunk, I confess, my Lord, that there is a tinge of melancholy mixed with the feeling. This is the last time, my Lord, that I shall have the honour of attending your hospitable board as Lord Mayor—(Hear, hear) — and I ehould be doing injustice to the sentiments of my country, and to my own feelings, if I were not now to make known to you, gentlemen; from every part of England,- as I understand you are, the uni form Liminess I have, on the part of the United States, received during the last year from the chief magis trate of the city of .London.—(Cheers.) His more than princely hospitality. I have constantly partaken of during his year of office, and I consider it as a compliment to the citizens of the United States.— ( Hear.) I feel myself constrained to say, further, that I am proud of now being by circumstances brought into contact with a great body of men, re nowned, both at home and abroad, for their enterprise and their power—with men who are great donors to their country and to mankind.—(Cheers.) I meet you, gentlemen, with feelings of respect and pride. I meet you with feelings of respect, because I sympa thise with you in the great objects you are prosecut ing, having been myself for some time engaged in the same pursuits. I have likewise pride in meeting you because you hove achieved great and glorio.us things for your country, and because your example has not only reached my country, but extended to every part, or almost to every part, of the civilized world.—(Cheers.) Yes, gentlemen, I look upon the establishment of railways as one of the greatest agents in the civilization of mankind.—(Cheers.) It has been said, and truthfully said, that he who causes two blades of grass to grow where only one grew before is a national and a universal benefactor. In the same spirit I hold that you, gentlemen, who have made travelling so cheap that the poorest creature upon earth cannot afford to walk, that you who are rapidly bringing together the people of every country in the world, are great public bene factors.—(Hear, hear.) And when I regard my own country, which stretches from the tropics to the Frozen Ocean, and see the extent of steam commu nication through it, either by railways or steamboats ; when I contemplate the magnitude of the territory either already covered or about to be covered by electric telegraphs, extending, in fact from one end of the continent to the other, and when I see those great highways of intellect and thought enabling us to communicate with each other at the distance of two or three thowand miles in thirty or forty minutes, I confess I am amazed, and not only amazed, but delighted to see that men are brought so near each other.—(Hear, hear.) I am delighted, too, to see here, I will not say two hundred railway kings, because that is a phrase which is not perhaps popular —(A laugh)—but railway managers who represent a capital equal to one-third of the whole National Debt of England. You, gentlemen, have the destinies of the nation in your hands. Under all these circumstances, I confess I feel most deeply the compliment which the Lord Mayor has paid to my country in inviting me to this entertainment. We cannot at present, gentlemen, realize the full benefits of the railway system; but I may observe that in every country where railways have hitherto been established they have been proved to be the greatest labour saving machines yet in vented.—(Hear, bear.) Recollect, gentlemen, that you are only commencing the application of steam, both to the navigation of ships and to travelling upon land.—(Hear, hear.) Forty years ago not a steamer was to be found upon the Thames, and but twenty two years ago, or thereabouts, not a solitary steam carriage was to be seen driving its way along the surface of the land.—(Hear, hear.) I say, then, that the resources, not only of this country, but of all countries, so far as the appliances of art and science are concerned, are increased by the application of steam. What was the art of printing forty years after its discovery ?—(Hear, hear.) What is steam now, forty years after its first application to locomo tion ? The first was improved and extended, and I have no fear in that respect for the second.—(Cheers.) His Excellency concluded by again complimenting the Lord Mayor upon his hospitality, and by a warm expression' of the interest he felt in meeting the re presentatives of the great railways of the country— institutions which he regarded as among the greatest conservators of intelligence, power, peace, and secu rity.— (Cheers.) The next toast proposed by the LORD MAYOR was "The House of Commons." Sir H. VERNEY, M.P., returned thanks in a brief speech, in the course of which he referred with feel ings of pride to the connexion which his ancestors had with the city of London. The Hon. Baronet men tioned that one of his family filled the office of Sheriff in 1458, of Lord Alayor in 1460, and of Member for the City in 1462. It was one of the most honourable characteristics of the City, that the humblest indivi dual might, by the exercise of integrity, prudence, and honour, obtain its highest honours.—(Cheers.) Foreigners who came to the Great Exhibition next ye.r would see here the spectacle of a peaceful and well-governed people. He desired that they should, at the same time, see that our free institutions in civil matters, and our Protestant institutions in religious matters, could, under the blessing of Divine Provi nd a moral people.—(Cheers.) d S_ , la -s was no form n •t v o a s a doubt, u happy satisfied o be the result, advantages and arising much t in; 'ou to ld the from railway communications.—(Hear.) The LORD , MAYO R p ropose d "Th e City of L on d on and its _trade," coupling the name of - Mr. ex-Shei Nicoll vvith the toast. Mr. Ni coal., in returning thanks, said—My Lord Mayor, permit me to tender a very brief, though a v ry sincere expression of my thanks for the kind co mpliment you have been pleased to bestow upon me. Let me assure you that it has afforded me much pleasure once more to partake of your Lordship's hospitality in this the time-honoured scene of festivity and loyalty, where all the great and noble in the land are accustomed freely to commingle with the repre sentatives of its commerce.—(Cheers.) Let me take the advantage. of this opportunity to congra tulate your Lordship upon having availed your self of so many occasions for sustaining the an• cient character for hospitality of the great city over which your Lordship has so ably preiided in the capacity of its chit magistrate.—(Coter,) And here let me say that the intimate connexion, the hand of mutual goad understanding that has existed for centuries between the officers of the mayoralty and the shrievalty of the City, ha s no t on l y rema i ne d during our time simply unimpaired, but the efficacy of such an arrangement has been further illustrated and established.—(Cheers.) With regard to the com plimentary allusion that your Lordship h-,s so kindly made to the ancient and honourable offices I have so recently had the honour to till, I do trust that io my endeavour faithful iv to die ;barge the duties of my office, I shall have deserved not only the good opinion of my fellow-citizens, but also that of the, public in general.—(Loud cheers.) The AMERICAN MINISTER proposed " The health of the Lord Mayor," to whose splendid hospitality he again bore testimony. Allusion had been made to the Great Industrial Exhibition of 1851. He Mt profound interest in the success of that undertaking; and on the part of the United States he returned his thanks to the Lord Mayor for the part he bad taken in promoting its objects. Not only was it fraught with prospects of the highest benefit to this country, but its effects would be diffused all over the world. It would be a benefit to mankind,--(Hear, hear.) Great Britain need fear nothing from the comparison to which she would be exposed. In all the substan tial arts it was futile to say that, with the advantages of cheap capital and cheap labour, our skill and en ergy would be last in the race. To tell him that the lusty, broad-shouldered, energetic old Saxon would be last in the race was simply utopian ; and he was of opinion with the late Sir Robert Peel, upon the, last occasion when he had the pleasure of hearing him in public, when he stated that this country had nothing to apprehend from any foreign nation whatever.—(Hear, hear.) The LORD MAYOR briefly returned thanks, ob serving in the course of his address that his merits had been described in too brilliant terms. If h e could have fulfilled all that had bean said of him he should have been the greatest man upon record ; but he had done what lay in his power, and they must take the will for the deed.—(Cheers.) From the time he accepted office it had been his earnest wish tol discharge his duties faithfully and correctly ; and though much had been omitted he had done his best, and for what he had done he was amply rewarded by the approbation of that assembly and of his fellow citizens.—(Cheers.) His Lordship then proposed " The Directors of the London and North-Wester n Railway Company," a toast that was most heartily applauded. Mr. SMITH said it fell to his lot, in the absence of Mr. Glyn, the deputy-chairman of the London and North-Western Company, to return the acknowledg ments of the directors of that company for the honour conferred upon them, and in doing so he could not but regret the absence of Mr. Glyn, who would more adequately express their sense of the ,Lord Mayor's kindness. He (Mr. Smith) was sure he should only utter the feelings of his colleagues when he said that they felt the compliment to be the greater, associated as they were at his Lordship's table with so many gentlemen engaged in large and varied, and many of them in kindred, enterprises, because th e y could best appreciate the difficulties which beset umiertakings of magnitude and importance.—(Hear..) His Excellency the American Minister had adverted to the benefits which mankind would derive from the introduction of railways, and he (Mr. Smith) doubted not that not only thiti country, but the whole world would derive all the benefit thus anticipated from the vast undertakings which, in their financial, political, and social results, surpassed any object which had yet engaged the genius and energy of man.—(Cheers.) The directors were duly sensible of the moral respon sibilities imposed upon them in the management of those important works, and their ambition would be to perform worthily the duties they had undertaken. The LORD MAYO% next gave—" The Deputy- Chairman and Directors of the Midland Railway Company." Mr. MALE said he regretted the absence of the chairman of the Midland Company, who would in his own earnest manner have heartily acknowledged the compliment paid to the directors of that rail way.— (Hear.) He (Mr. Bale) would observe that, in carrying out so vast a system of intercommunication no doubt great mistakes had been made, not only by railway directors, but by others, and many railways had been made which would have borne delay ; hut the history of railways must be measured by the lit'e of tbe country rather than by the life of men, and if so regarded, the shareholders of most lines would still socialpat I n e r d t LiDe Lord rmr a de t pe e l ,rt 100 in rav sye mo or t efh for ott hr. — p eh u i( b ssc l oh i h c uoetseh s pr a -i,E t t. isf ts)alis a tt c yle t ir i ae o nn n at so great begged nateyos kindness. k The Loan MAYOR then p ro p ose d " Th e Ch a i rman pany." Mr. MACGREGOR said he felt proud to have the honour of returning thanks for the South-Eastern Company. If other railways might have large r sn h uo a pt d : ieaa takenss,t imustn sno Constantinople.--.(Hear, railwaynr o a p b le part in promoting expec tations in connexion with the Great Exhibition, to which reference had been made, and which the Lord minus in St. Saviour's, in Southlew.....arwk( had one T ter,h The proud in being enabled surely Ma at s Y . h il ic a e h n ar d l : the other directors of that railway to take part in the work of shortening the period of h e t v y er p 3 r .t e h s i s n — g t t s w y b o otu ho o u l e: i communication between London and Paris from 36 to 12 hours—(Hear)—and in erecting wires which nication between the cu brought to the press—the after midnight, intelligence of what hadpassed Paris the day before.—(Hear, hear.) It ld be to do b t hee donestu d study toomf the ake company comm u tConti nent of Europe and the South-Eastern for all who desired to come to the Great Exhibition. The next toast was " The Chairman and Directors of the York and North Midland Railway Company." Mr. 'THOMPSON, chairman of the company, briefly acknowledged the compliment, b ut ina tone that so low that we could not bear his remarks. The LORD MAYOR, after a few complimentary re marks, proposed " The health of Mr. Paxton," as a gentleman to whom the success of the Great Indus trial Exhibition would be mainly owing. The toast was received with cheers. Mr. PAX TON, who wa s warmly applauded, said— My Lord Mayor, I feel exceedingly fl at t e red by the kind manner in which you h ave proposed my health; and I am extremely grateful to ,you, gen tl e men, for the manner in which you have responded to the toast. You have been pleased to associate my name with the Great Industrial Exhibition of 1851, i n respect to which I have had the honour to play rather a con spicuous part. I do not think this a proper oppor tunity to enter into a l engt h ened descri ption of the great building I have had the honour to design ; but perhaps you will be kind enough to allow me to ob serve, that in sending in the design for that great un dertaking I was not actuated by any s elfish motive, or by any conceited opinion as to my a bility to carry it out, but that the success of the exhibition was the only object I had in view.—(Cheers.) I saw that there was great jeopardy connected with the whole undertaking, and seeing the forcible arguments put forward against the f o proposed plan a brick building, I set vi go r ous ly to work to endea vour to rescue it, and I never relaxed or rested an instant until I had succeeded in effecting the object I had in view.—(Cheers.) I know that the building is considered a great novelty, but it is no experiment, because there is not a single feature in it which I have not myself carried out at Chatsworth and other places.—(Hear, hear.) I feel perfectly certain as to the result.—(Hear, bear.) I clai m no merit whatever for the plan which I have p ro posed, for in submitti ng it I did no more than any other Englishman in similar circutnstances would have done.--(Hear, hear.) I saw there was a difficulty, and I merely came forward to assist in removing i t as far as lay in my power. I believe, my Lord Mayor, that the Exhibition will tend more to the benefit of mankind than any other circumstance that has yet oc curred in the history of this country, or perhep t in the history of the world. Dly friend (Sir Frederick Smith) has referred to the utility of railways as a means of carrying troops from one place to another ; but I hope, at least as long as I tern a railway direc tor, that we shall rather have to carry the banners of peace than the horrid missiles of war. I feel that in connexion with the Exhibition they v ill assist in exhibiting our arts, our manufactures, and our ma terial progress.—(Hear, hear.) I believe, then, that this country has done itself the greatest p oss ibl e honour in proposing this great undertakin g ; and, as it is the first exhibition of the world's industry, I hope it will not be the laste—(Hear, hear.) I believe and hope that our friends on the other side the At lantic, who have become a great people like ourselves, Kill, in cones quence of it, cress the broad ocean i n great numbers to see the mother country ; and I am sure Celt if they do, they will find us still stout hearted—still vigorous, like the old English oak, though branches are continually shooting off from us —still happy and c9ntented with our instituting, (Hear.) I hope that the Exhibition, if it does no thing else, will tend to cement the nations of the earth together; and what I particularly wish and feel most anxious about is, that we should give a hearty recep tion to the people of every country in the world, so that they may return to their own lands happy and satisfied, and able to inform their friends and neigh bours of the welcome reception they mot with in Eng land.—(Loud cheers.) The remaining toasts were " The High Sheriff of Surrey," to v hieh Mr. Prcshfit.ld rf sponded; "The Lady Mayoress," which was acknowlcdg9d by the Lord Mayor ; and " The Manngera and Oaken" of the Railway Companies," which was suitably acknow ledged by CAptain Huish and Mr. Watkin. Mr. Hlrker officiated ts toastmaster; and the pro ceedings were greatly enlivened by the vocal per formances of Miss Ransford, Miss Bassano, Mr. HolineF, Mr. W. E. Ransford, Mr. 11. Phillips, and Mr. Ransfoz.d. Mr. Harper also played a solo upon the trumpet. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—The letter of Lord John ;Russell to the Bishop of Durham, which we publish elsewhere, de serves the deepest attention. It is a clear and uncom promising statement of principles and opinions which are entertained with wonderful unanimity by all the wise and moderate in this country. Sweeping aside with manly vigour the false and sophistical analogies in which the subject has been sought to be en tangled, Lord John Russell points at once to the real merits of the question—the assumption of authority over her Majesty's subjects and supremacy over her dominions. But treating these empty bravadoes of a petty foreign Prince with comparative contempt, he proceeds to point to the fountain and origin of the evil—the apostasy of a large number of the English clergy, who have prepared the way by secret treason for this open attack upon our Church and Crown. These sentiments, as terse and vigorous as they are wise and true, would command respect from whatever quarter they came, but their importance is infi nitely enhanced when we consider that they are the deliberate opinions of a statesman, the tried friend of toleration, who has now, alas! no equal in knowledge of our Constitution and experience of its working, and whose mind is deeply iwbued with the spirit of that ancient limited monarchy which has descended to us alone of all the nations of Europe pure and unimpaired. Still more important is this letter as a solemn pledge given by the head of our Executive Government to the nation, that the two enormous grievances which it points out shall not re main unredressed. If the law be comprehensive enough to reach the offenders, it will be put in force; if not, Lord John Russell still expresses a persuasion, in which all will join, that we are strong enough to repel all outward attacks. Nor can we believe that Lord John Russell has thus publicly and emphatically called attention to the apostasy of many clergymen of our own Church, who are acting within her precincts the part of Roman Catholic Propagandists, and of whose abandon ment of their insidious courses he expresses no hope, merely for the purpose of holding up those persons to obloquy and disgrace, however well merited. We trust we see i n th ese ex p ress i ons s i gns of a purpose, not yet perhaps fully matured, but ra pidly growing towards completion—the purpose of cleansing our Church from the discredit cast upon her quite as much by the treachery as by the schism of her members—the purpose of rendering our univer sities something better than schools of Popery and mysticism—the purpose of restoring to us our Church such as the Reformation gave it to us, the child of light and reason, unclouded by superstition, unde graded by priestcraft, clear and comprehensive in her doctrines, built upon truth, and abhorring falsehood. If Lord John Russell does really entertain such in: tentions, we are convinced he may count with confi dence on the support of the English people, who are above all things lovers of truth, and who, though per fectly willing to tolerate any difference of opinion from their own, will not tolerate the domineering spirit which seeks for supremacy because it has been allowed equality, nor the sordid treachery which hides its insidious advances under the mask of a hollow conformity. DAILY NEWS.--The resignation of the Prus sian Minister, Radowitz, in consequence of his col leagues and his Court refusing to support him in summoning the country to arias and resisting the conditions imposed on Germany by the Czir Nicholas, is as honourable to that statesman as it is disgraceful and annihilating to the Prussian monarchy. The terms dictated by the Czar, however veiled, amount to no less than the sacrifice by Prussia, of all the principles for which she contended, and of all the allies which her previous hardihood encouraged. But for Prussian support, Schleswig and Holstein would never have gone the length they have done. But for the countenance, the attitude, the constitutional words of the Prussian Sovereign, the people at Hesse- Cassel would not have ventured resistance in behalf of their rights, nor its officers resigned as one man. The total desertion of them by Prussia, as well as of the principles of representative Govern ment in Germany, to which so many Princes adhered, will, if definitively consented :to, be one of the most treacherous, the most infamous and felonious acts ever committed by a Government. From such disgrace General Radowitz has at least washed his hands, by a prompt resignation, one of the first genuinely consti tutional acts of a public man in Prussia. Had he, with equal truth and boldness, observed constitutional principles in his acceptance of office and his manage ment of affairs, he would have avoided the difficulties into which he fell. First of all, his acceptance of office in the midst of a cabinet not true either to him or to the German question, was a fault. Secondly, his in trusting the mission to Warsaw to Count Brandenburg, a connexion of royal houses, and the weakest of cour tiers, was an unpardonable error. Count Brandenburg was in fact tricked and cajoled at Warsaw,where under pretence of ceding the letterof the Prussian demands, the whole spirit of the arrangement went against Pruse sian and German interests. Thus, it is said (though nothing is as yet certain) that the temporary arrange snent at Warsaw to which Count Brandenburg con • stinted was, that for the present Prussia should keep peace and regulate matters in the states of the Union, Austria having equal sway in the states that acknow ledged the Diet. Now, the Princes of Holstein and Hesse, the two countries where constitutional dis putes exist, have certainly sent envoys to the Diet, whilst the states and populations are fur the Union. By admitting that the mere voice of the Prince de cided, and that constitutions were nothing, Count Brandenburg gave up every question at issue. And his doing so gave at once to the Bavarians the pretext and apparently the right to invade Hesse, as it gave Hanover at Austrian bidding, the right and the pretext to invade Holstein to-morrow. Against such concessions as these, as well as against the assenting to a compromise on the German question, which must finally render Austria mistress of Ger many, the spirit of Radowitz rose indignant, as did that of the Crown Prince of Prussia ; nay, it is said, the spirit of the King himself. The latter, however, has, we regret to say, laid the sword of the great Frederick at the feet. of the Czar. Napoleon ravished that weapon from Potsdam after the battle of Jena ; but he left millions of Prussian hearts burning to re cover it, and but waiting the opportunity to do so. Whilst now Count Brandenburg carries the military honour and the political independence of the King off to Warsaw, and consigns it to the Czar, without one Prussian heaving a sigh for the dishonoured dynasty, or making one vow for its restoration. Atter all, what is it to the dweller on the Oder, the Elba, or the Rhine, that the House of Hohenzollern should descend from its kingly, or what is synonymous, its heroic rank, for they were kings of Prussia solely by their heroism ? The race that fills the wide plains which extend south of the Baltic may cease to be Prussian to-morrow, for the name, in fact, exists more in the dynasty than in the nation. If denied honourable and independent existence as Prussians, they can, at least, survive as Germans, and, as such, are as indestructible as the sands which are fertilised by their industry, and which have been ennobled by their blood. The Czar will not have them Germans. He insists on a new empire, more than half made up of Croats and Serbs, and Gallicians and Illyrians, the German and the free elements overgrown and overwhelmed by the Sclavonian and the servile. And to consent to this, to force down the neck of that dy nasty, which represented the old Teutonic franchise and stock, need we say that the house of Hohen zellern would brand itself with a stigma that not even centuries of heroism could efface ? As to the Teutonic race, they would not want avengers ; they would soon find leaders. For years they have sought just leaders with all trust and humility in the Princes that Providence and fortune had set over them. Most cf these have failed, have been worse than wanting, for they have been traitors to the German cause. Are the Germans to he blamed, if their first war cry of the next uprising be the terrific one of war" to Princes ? Let us, however, not decide or vaticinate too rashly. We speak as yet upon presumption, strong indeed, deep fraught with fear and with de spair. For it is not a light or grateful thing, to abandon all hope of a country's retrieval from its natural chiefs and protectors. Germany might have been saved by its princes and its states men. We have always said so, whilst the democrats . with passion denied that it could be so. But if events come to justify these prognostications, we too must fain put faith in democracy. We should prefer it in its wildest frenzy to the establiobtnent (,f a universal Cossack empire over Rome. COURT CIRCULAR. • WINDSOR, Nov. C.

Rear-Admiral Deans Dundas, C. 8., M.P., Captain Houston Stewart, C.B.,and Captain Sir B. W. Walker, K.C.8., the surveyor f the navy, paid a short official visit to Portsmouth yesterday morning. They arrived on Tuesday evening, and dined with the Rear-Admiral superintendent. After breakfast yesterday morning the board transacted business at the Admiral's office, and then proceeded to the Retribution steam frigate, Captain Warden, now in dock receiving additional false keel. They were accompanied by the Commander-in-Chief and Admiral Prescott, C. 8., Mr. Fincham, the master ship wright, and other officers of the yard. They then visited and minutely inspected the Hogue, 60, screw steam guardship, Capt. Macdougal, and, accompanied by him, went down below to her engine-room, and also over the other parts of this fine ship. They also, attended by Mr. Hay, chemical assistant, went under her bottom to inspect her sheathing, which, as we stated, appears to be in very excellent preservation, though, as it bas not been on long„ no good judgment can be formed of its durability. Her dockyards repairs will be completed on the 9th instant, but when she will be out of the hands of the engineers seems uncertain, as there is much more to be done than was anticipated. The members of the Admiralty, the port and superintendent admirals, Mr. Fincham, Mr. Murray, and a number of captains and other officers, on leaving the Hogue, repaired to the office of the chemical department to see and inspect a rewly-invented motive machine. This engine, or ma chine, has been constructed by Mr. Hay, and will be ap plied as an auxiliary power fur propelling line-of-battle ships and frigates, and it is intended to entirely super sede the use of steam and fire, whereby ships will dis pense with coal-bunkers and boilers, which, occupying so much space, often render a man-of-war's armament incomplete, and tike away the principal stowage for water and provisions. The machine os yet is in an in complete state, but on the application of the moving power, sufficient satisfaction was afforded to all present; and the Board were so gratified that directions were given that Mr. Hay might have a perfect machine made and practically tested on board the Bee, steamer, when ever he is prepared to carry out his invention. The engine model was on a tolerably large scale, and the power, though very :active, and unlimited in strength, seemed well under control. The Board, after lunching with Admiral Prescott, left Portsmouth for London, and arrived at the Admiralty last night. THE FRENCH. FLEET.—The French fleet got under weigh in Torbay on Monday, at half.past four P.M., and proceeded to the westward, ;wind W.N.W., strong and dirty; and at 4.30 r.m. on Tuesday the fleet were in sight off Plymouth, working down Channel. Mr. William Stewart, resident engineer at Holyhead, is appointed to Devonport Dockyard, vice Mr. William Neil, superannuated. Mr. Stewart is to retain the same salary be now holds, being 3001. per annual. Bloodhound, iron steamer, has been taken down to the jetty at Portsmouth to fit for a temporary tug-boat in lieu of the Echo, undergoing repair. Geyser, steam- sloop, Commander Tatham, ha 3 arrived at Devonport from Wocdwich, and will sail for Brazils after tho arrival of the London post on the 9th. Greenock, iron screw-frigate, at Devonport, is to be tried again. Mr. Hughes, from the Admiralty, is there to witeess the trial. lio:amond, steam-sloop, was pat out of the basin, yesterday, at Woolwich, and will proceed to Devouport. Rattlesnakr, surveying -vessel, Captain Cockburn, will be paid off at Chatham on the 9th instead of the Bth. Tortoise, lighter, on shore in Carnarvon Bay, a as hove off into drep water on Sunday evening. PORTSMOUTH, WEDNESDAY.—The Fantome, 12, has begin brought down from the ordinary and taken into the basin to be masted. She will be commissioned in a few days, to carry the December mail to the coast of Africa. Au order was received this morning by Mr. Alexander Beattie, the Ottoman Vice-Consul at this port, informing him of official permission having been granted for the Turkish ships now at Spitbead to come into harbour to morrow to milt, and remain at pleasure. PLYMOUTH, WEDNESDAY.—Lier Majesty's steam vessel Geyser arrived on Monday from Woolwich, and went up harbour to coal. The Penguin packet came in yesterday from Falmouth to refit.

WooLwicri, Nov. 6.—The Banshee steam-vessel, Master-Commander William Smithett, went down the river yesterday to try her speed at the measured mile in Sea-reach, when only using the two aft out of her four boilers. Mr. Humphrys, Chief Engineer at Woolwich Dockyard, went down in her, and the result was very satisfactory, as she made an average speed of twelve knots, or 13.827 statute miles per hour in ten runs over the measured mile, five up and five down. Three of the runs were made in a very short space of time, but the others were against showing her true speed, as she had to diverge out of the straight line owing to the number of vessels in the river. The Banshee was taken into the basin to-day to be made ready as a packet steam-vessel for the Mediterranean station. The Buzzard steaca-sloop was taken out of the basin to-day, and will leave for Devonport on Friday or Satur day next, in charge of Lieutenant Robertson, with a party of seamen. The Pluto steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Jol liffe, was taken into the basin to-day, preparatory to being paid cif on Friday next. IRELAND. ENCUMIEZED ISTATES.

Some house property, situate in Dublin, part of the estate of the Messrs. Dickenson, was sold at prices satisfactory to the purchasers. Several small properties in Sligo and Limerick were knocked down at low prices, while for some others the biddings were considered so far below the present market value that the sales were postponed.

For years Guy Fawkes has been a stranger to our streets, and ontires have been prohibited here, but the impudence of the Pope's Ball has brought them both to light again. The whole of this day the town and neighbourhood have been on a move. At twelve o'clock the effigy of a cardinal in full canonicals, so highly finished off that it would not have oisgraced Madame Tussaud's collection, made its appearance and was paraded through the different streets, and soon after that of a second personage, a short man clothed in black, with a white cravat, a book in hand, and on his Ilat, in large figures, " gO," " The tr a it o r, the hypocrite." The procession closed about severe o'clock, when the shops were simultaneously shut, and the houses end strects were deserted, the whole population rushing to the beach near Egypt, w here an immense pile of tar barrels, sugar hogsn t ads, furnished by the shipbuticrs and tr4destnen, and a quantity of fag-gots from . Mr.lVard's plrk, were. fired, -t n'! the two efligirs Here turn% A quantity of fireworks were also discharged.

Great fears are entertained for the safety of the Ant schooner, Undtrwood master, of this port, from Newport, Wales, with coals for Southampton.

SAVIOUR'S On Tuesday evening the service appointed for the tenni verss.ry of the Gunpowder Plot was performed at St. Saviour's, Southwark, when every part of that spacious edifice was most densely crowded. The sermon was preached by the Rev. W. Curling, one of the chaplains from the 3d Epistle of St. John, T. 9, 10; it oceupicd one hour and a half in its delivery, end was listened to with the most sedulous attention to the end. The ser mon produced a great sensation, and when the congre gation arose to leave the church at the close of the ser mon, the organ began to play the air of the National Anthem, upon which the congregation suddenly com menced the words, and sung two verses with great an thusiasm. Mr. Curling then succeeded in procuring a pause, and remarked that as some expressions in the remaining verses were not qeite befitting the sanctity of the place, they had better substitute the Doxology. The organ then began to play " The old hundredth," and the people sang " Praise God from whom all blessings flow," with a fervour and universality that evinced their cordial concurrence in the suggestions of their pastor. The immense concourse then separated. DOVER, WEDNESDAY.—There was great excitement in this town yesterday, the designs of the Bishop of Rome having induced a more than ordinary demonstra tion of good old English Protestant feeling on the anni versary of the Gunpowder Plot. Effigies of the Pope and his cardinal, dressed in showy and grotesque scarlet apparel, were stuck up in a waggon, and driven about by a particular black friend of theirs. Atter being paraded about the streets, amidst the cheering and scof fing of a well-pleased multitude, " his Holiness" was taken out to sea, where, his conscience being heavier than his body, he wallowed about in the water for some time, and at length departed to the regions below. The cardinal was not born to be drowned; " his Lordship" was reserved for another fate, and in the evening ex piated his sins of omission and commission in a bonfire, in the presence of a great concourse of people. HEREFORD.—The usual preparations were made in this city to commemorate the day and to give " Mister Guy's" representative a warm reception. Squibs, crackers, and other fusible missiles, have been in great requisition, and no sooner had the shades of evening closed over the Castle-areen than numberless " halt penny fires" were set going. A capital effigy was pre pared as usual (lantern and candle of course included), and a pile of a hundred faggots erected whereon it was placed, in traitorial dignity, and burnt to ashes. LIVERPOOL.—The annual commemoration of the Gunpowder Plot was this year observed with increased ec!at. Several of the established clergy had Divine ser vice performed in their churches both morning and evening. Dr. M'Neilo preached from these words, " What mean ye by this servit e?" G EVLDFoRD.—An effigy of the Pope and his Arch bishop of Westminster was burnt in this town on the sth of November. A placard, with the following in scription, was placed on the breast of" his Holiness:"— " We, Pope Pius IX. and St. Impudentia, our Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster (whose evil counsel has brought both us and him to this untimely end), are doomed to be burnt this evening, November 5, 1850." THE FRENCH FLEET. PLYMOUTII, WEDNESDAY FORENOON. Mr. Jcel Trelwen, pilot in the James and Elizabeth, reports that at half-peat four o'clock yesterday (Tuesday) aftetnoon he saw the French iket seven miles we,:t-outh-west of the Bolt, reaching in. Their topgallant masts were struck, and they were under redid topsail-; no jibs; in some the courses were set; in others, hauled up, and one had her main-yard hacked so as to keep in rota tioc. The lice; consisted of six full-rigged ships and a steamer, the Admiral a-head, and the steamer, brig rigged, a-stern. Mr. Spicer, of the Red R:iver, fishing-smack, reports that at half-past fire o'cl,ck the fleet, six sail, wore tolerably close together, about 21 wile, to the eastwarsi of this harbour, between the Bold and tl , e Mewstone. They were under reefed topqr.ils, and had their starboard tricks aboard, with their heads to the southward.

AN INFURIATED Ox.—About four o'clock on Mon day evening ss a man was driving up King's-road, St. Pan cras, from Smithfield, a number of oxen, one of the animals became infuriated, and darting from the herd attacked two men, whom it so wou&ed that they were carried insensible to their homes. After having exhausted its rage upon the men by goring them to the extent mentioned, it turned into Chapel-street, Somers Town, where it rushed at a poor wo man named Margaret Carron, who had her infant in her arms. The beast butted the woman most frightfully, tearing her leg open right up to the hip. As soon as the ox was got away from her she was paced, insensible and apparently dying, in a hackney coach, and conveyed to the University College Hospital, where the house physician pronounced the wounds to be most dangerous. Strange to say the infant escaped uninjured. After quitting the woman the animal rushed at a boy, whom it likewise severely lacerated. ulti mately, a brave cabman , m ountin g h i s cab, headcd the crowd r t a h i a l n p g u s r i s n u e'l thet f h r e o n o t x. of s u s c e c a e d e d d i e n d g h d o r u m s • e i g t.he it p w . a h h i n s o t 1 1 l i e . citor, where it was secured by ropes, .and caid off by Neighbourhood, the peo ple, aided by the police, .to a yard pi the where it will be kept until its owner is found out.
