Many houses make a mystery of their business, and one "e. think they were in possession of some great secret, that none 9 t tr i llernseives must know. We see nothing in fair trading that re eB mystery—we understand no trade secrets—all we know our tlj'eraers may know, for we desire to be candid. Everybody won -11:lhow„we can sell good articles so cheap. They can all understand h" it is that people can sell cheap when the articles are bad. There 4 1 ' 0 difficulty in comprehending how common things are sold at low ; but the wonder is how we can turn out Clothes of the best 4,l"tY. at the small prices we charge. We hesitate not to explain 041 Wed° it. First, we buy very large quantities of material, not yat the first price, but often at considerably less than anybody S . euld,siraply because we buy more largely than anybody else can. to w e have an immense number of first-rate hands, who are equal it O Y, in the trade in the quality of their work, and these are eon employed all the year round. Thirdly, we employ a number of to l Zast steady and talented cutters and fitters in the kingdom, and IC`mtettel the work onrselvess upon the premises. But, after all, there tVeeret—a something which enables us to sell a better and a iero a rr article than anybody, and that is, we are content with 134 15 Profits, that is the grand secret. We fear no competition in k, 8111, Making, and selling. Our clothes . are equal in quality, %ab le '. and style to those for which most tenors charge more than lO N ?lee. The vast business we do renders our small profits far gibli B ,? , vantageous than other people's large ones, and with an es %a 'Zeal unrivalled in extent, in convenience, and in situation, 4 h). cln'"eover with capital that will always command the best -slig:l in the market at the most favourable prices, we can chal- N ot ",he Whole trading community to produce goods at the price Roo'he quality which we are selling hourly.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office are—Moderate and olltitable Rates or Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to pr ts portion Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has bi ten so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result c.f guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual loss as of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and La isurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximatic.n to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable F tee Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can oril y be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has net. hitherto been sufficiently acted .;n, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return period testily to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably pa..] able,- as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is lasgely interested in this question, and will consult his 1 n terest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of .0 lassifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis f its own experience, from time to time, adopt such rates of Premi Jun as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter int 4, arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. o f the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Po 11 cies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Coax :puny upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Avert we Clause.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. The hearing of the informations against several omnibus proprietors, for using omnibuses not truly constructed to carry the number of passengers they purported to be constructed to hold, was resumed be fore Alderman Wilson, Alderman Finnis, and Alder man Lawrence. The court was very much crowded, and the case being one of public importance, and one in which the omnibus proprietors, omnibus builders, &c., were very much interested, a great number of that body was present in court during the proceedings. Mr. Lewis attended for the proprietors of the Pad dington and Metropolitan Association. Alderman WILSON asked how long a time it would take to make all the alterations required ? Mr. Lewis said, as there were quite 99 out of every 100 that were illegally constructed, it could not possibly be done in less than two months, without great detriment to the public accommodation, by drawing off a great number of vehicles from the daily traffic. Alderman WILSON thought two months was more than necessary, and evidence was then put in to show that every omnibus took from six to seven hours to alter, and that they could not all be remodelled in less time, as these alterations could only be effected between twelve o'clock at night and six or seven o'clock in the morning. Alderman WILSON said he would give them two months, and' begged to caution the proprietors that he would send round inspectors on that day two months to measure every omnibus, and if he found any smaller than the Waterloo vehicles at the end of that time, the penalty of 101. should be most rigidly enforced in every instance, and he hoped that the r press would give publicity to this decision, in order that the, proprietors might not be able to plead ignorance of the statute, or the present proceedings and result, when the time should come for the inflic tion of the 101. . Mr. Lewis undertook, on behalf of the proprietors of 800 omnibuses, plying to and from London in short stages, that their vehicles should be altered within the time, and the progress made in the altera tions reported to the magistrates every week, to show that the proprietors had no wish to evade the law. Alderman Wimom did not cthink they were so much to blame as the builders, and be would ad vise the proprietors to bargain with them, so as to let the responsibility of illegal construction rest with the latter. convictions of is. and costs were then taken in each case. sufficient to warrant her _committal, and must be discharged. Henry Grainger alias Jonathan, was next brought up on a remanded Charge of presenting an envelope, on which we written, " With the Rev. W. Bowyer'e compliments," and containing a petition, at the house of Mrs. Rickson, of Clapham, on the Bth inst. The Rev. W. H. Wentworth Bowyer, rector of, Clapham, proved that he knew nothing of the prisoner, and it was not his handwriting. Evidence was given of the prisoner and an old man being seen together in the tap of a public-house writing; and the potboy overhearing the old man say to the prisoner, " Oh, the old woman is good for a shilling." Horsford proved the prisoner had been committed by the Lord Mayor for a month, and by the Hon. Mr. Norton, at Lambeth, for eight months. Mr. PAY TER committed the prisoner also for three months, with hard labour. THE GREAT EXHIBITION. Her Majesty the Queen, with that consideration for the wishes of her loyal subjects which has ever distinguished her reign, has consented that the State opening of the Exhibition on a the Ist of May shall take place in a manner correspoahling with the popu lar character of the occasion. All who have pur chased season tickets will be admitted, and although some precautions will be taken that the building may not be unduly crowded, there is space enough within the vast area to accommodate, without the slightest inconvenience, such an assemblage as, perhaps, never was collected under one roof before. It is calculated that the ceremony of inauguration can be witnessed by 15,000 people, and that will probably be the limit to which the privilege we announce will be confined. For the concession thus made to the loyal and affec tionate wishes of the people the public have in a great measure to thank Lord Granville and the Executive Committee, who duly and urgently, yet respectfully, represented the unpopularity of a State opening from which even exhibitors, after all their efforts and sacri fices, would have been excluded. We shall not at tempt to anticipate the splendour and attractiveness of a pageant taking place under such auspices, in such a building, and witnessed by such an assemblage. If properly managed, as we have no doubt it will be, the world has probably never witnessed a grander or more imposing spectacle. Whichever way the cccasion is viewed, the materials for effect which it developes impress themselves on the mind. An unprecedented homage to human industry will be combined with a manifestation of loyalty to the throne under circumstances at once novel and affect ing. Her Majesty will have an opportunity of judg ing how little her person and authority have to fear from the encouragement of the peaceful arts all over the world. Those sinister prognostications of evil which we have lately heard uttered will be dispelled, and a remarkable illustration will be given of the truth that anarchy and industry are incompatible terms. With reference to the programme of the open ing nothing is yet settled, but no time will now be lost in making the necessary preparations, and it is to be hoped that every means will be adopted which the construction of the building and the objects it con tains present for rendering the ceremony as imposing as possible ; and we would again repeat a suggestion made by us some time ago—that from the large and powerful organs which have been erected music appropriate to the solemnity of the occasion should swell out and fi;l the vast area. By the arrange ment at present contemplated, her Majesty will open the building at ten o'clock, proceeding from Hyde park-corner along Rotten-row, and entering at the eastern end, while the admission for spectators entitled to be present will be at the south end of the transept. It would be premature as yet to insist upon the necessity which exists that all who are admitted into the Crystal Palace on this interesting occasion should preserve the strictest order, and obey implicitly the rules which shall be laid down for that purpose. We cannot, however, omit this opportunity for point ing out the reasons which had very nearly deprived the public of all share in a ceremonial to which they had looked forward with feelings of very natural and excusable curiosity. Whenever the Queen appears in public people, who from _their appearance and man ners ought to know better, flock around and almost mob her. Nor is it the male sex alone, but ladies also are found guilty of this impertinence; and it has been ascertained by experience that the policeman's truncheon, though effective as it is in a street row under ordinary circumstances, is powerless against the wearer of a satin dress or any other form of feminine finery. Ordinary assemblages of commonplace people can be kept in order, but crowds of gentlefolk, it is said, cannot ; and it was this difficulty that Lord Granville and the Executive Committee had to combat in their happily successful efforts to impart to the promised pageant a popular character. (From the Times.) We have not recurred to the subject of her Ma , J esty's State visit to the Great Exhibition (although great numbers of remonstrances against the scheme, which was announced to the of public have been ad dressed to us by all classespersons interested in that vast national enterprise), because w e felt assured that her Majesty's gracious desire to give the utmost effect and dignity t o on e of th e most remarkable oc currences of her reign would remove and amend whatever had seemed defectiveunpopular in the instructions promulgated a few and days ago in the name of the Royal Commission. It therefore, l with great satisfaction that we now find l olrse ourselves authorised to announce that the Queen has signified her Royal pleasure that arrangements should be e ma l d i e to enable d her Majesty to gratify a wish verpyre•eseeen present y expressed on the part of the public to be at the cere mony by which her Majesty should n open the Exhi bition ; and that a meeting of the Royal Commission has been summoned to consider th e programme of this ceremony, and the regulations under which the holders of season tickets will bet t. admitted to the in terior of the building at the of her Majesty's visit. After this intintationit iin i e s needless to ad vert to the inconsistency manifestly involved in . a proposal for a State visit from vihich the public should be excluded. The Statevisits l of the Sove reign to Parliament, to the nation the city of London, are occe theatres, or to sionsupon which the ancient splendour of the Court of England is happily and significantly blended with one lc rejoicings of the people ; and while everyrespects ofh and admires the refinement and retirement er Majesty's domestic life, there are times when theof Queen of England appears with state at the headda loyal and attached nation and meets with her accustomed of dig nity the acclamations of her subjects. h occa sions this opening of the great edifice in sne Hyde-park on the Ist May is unquestionably one. Raised as it has been by the voluntary munificenceofprivate in dividuals under the a utho rity of a Royal Commission, the country and the world know that Prince Albert has been not only the zealous patron , but the active e and s intelligent coadjuto r cf this stu p end ous work, which owes perhaps its existence to the energetic influence of the Court. Nor can it be forgotten that when Europe still reeled under reeent calamities England summoned the nations of the earth to her festival of industry and peace. The part of Queen Victoria in the inauguration of such an edifice is more than an act of formal sovereignty ; for her Majesty will dedicate the Crystal Palace, in which her Consort has shown the strongest interest, to those principles of universal peace and commercial freedom which are the chief glories of her reign; and the cultivated feelings which this enterprise is calculated to encourage and to ex press—the union of all classes in this nation, the goodwill of England to foreign countries, and the progress of the arts in taste and utility—could in no age have had a more appropriate patroness and repre.s sentative than they find in the Queen. But as the Court is prepared to take part with the people in the august ceremony of the ht May, it is not less essential that a l l the persons who may have qualified themselves for admission to the interior of the building should remember that they, too, have a part to perform beyond the mere gratification of their curiosity and their enthusiasm. It is the earnest desire of the Royal Commissioners to frame such re gulations as may most effectually conduce to her Majesty's convenience and to the general satisfaction of the public ; and we trust that whatever those regulations are, they will be decorously and good humouredly obeyed. It is obvious that the promiscuous and continued admission of many thousands of visitors during the presence of the Court, or the unrestricted circulation of so large a mass of persons within the building towards one centre of atterection, would give rise to confusion, which must be disrespectful to her Majesty and in consistent with the purposes of the Exhibition itself. Whatever rules may be laid down, much must still depend on the good breeding and self-control of those present, who will conduct themselves as be comes English men and women in the presence of their Sovereign and surrounded by foreigners, who have been in vited to give increased splendour to the Exhibition, s whilst they are in one sense the guests of this country. We have never shared in the slightest degree the political apps ehensions which have been very absurdly connected wit hi the vast assemblage of visitors Lon don is about to receive.

The following is a correct list of the sentences pass ed during the recent sittings of the Court:— TRANSPORTITION.—For Life—W. G. Smythe, and J. C. Wright. BOW-STREET. Two young men, named James Kelly and William Carter, were charged with breaking into the dwell ing-house of Mr. Henry Paine, 234, Strand, tailor, and stealing property therefrom. The prosecutor stated, that his house was closed in the usual manner on the night of the 7th of April, but at five o'clock in the morning he was alarmed by his servant, who told him that the house had been broken into. On going down stairs he discovered that the greater part of his stock goods had been cleared off, and the remaining portion scattered about the place. It was evident that the entrance had been effected through the back kitchen window, the grating of which had been torn from the brickwork. He considered that the thieves had been disturbed during their plunder, as a coat, trousers, and several other articles of clothing, with a chisel, &c., were found in the passages, as if left in the hurry of escape ; these, and a pair of shoes, being the pro perty of the men. Some of the prosecutor's goods, which had been pawned by the two prisoners, were produced in court and identified ; and Mr. JARDINE committed them for trial. WANDSWORTH. Mary White, alias Wood, a little demure -looking woman, dressed in black, was, together with a mas culine woman named Maria Stuart, brought before Mr. Paynter on a remanded charge of imposing on a number of ladies resident at Clapham, Balham-hill, and Tooting. William Horsford, the chief officer of the Mendi city Society, was now sworn, and recognised both prisoners as old offenders. White had gone by the names of Smith, Jones, Wilson, Grant, Thompson, and other aliases, and she had lived with three or four notorious begging-letter writers. She had got no young child ; she had only two sons, one was married and the other transported. In 1837 she was going about imposing on the charitable, and living with a man since transported ; whether he was her husband he could not say. In June, 1837, the pri soner imposed on the Earl of Harrington, but was discharged by Mr. Dyer, at Marlborough- street. In July, 1837, she was committed from the same office for obtaining 2/. from Sir Francis Lawley, Bart., by Mr. Chambers. In January, 1838, she was com mitted for three months by the Lord Mayor, and in April, 1839, was tried at Newgate by the Recorder, and sentenced to three months' imprisonment. In August, 1842, she was committed for three months by Mr. Ballantine, and in April, 1843, for three months by Mr. Trail ; in July, 1843, discharged by Mr. Hardwick ; in February, 1845, committed by Mr. Hall for a month ; 1845 tried at Newgate and acquitted; March, 1846, committed by the Lord Mayor for 14 days; August, 1846, by Mr. Maltby, for three months ; December, 1846, discharged by the Lord Mayor, May, 1849, committed by Mr. Ingram for three months ; July, 1850, committed by Mr. Hall for three months. Among the offences she had committed was using a forged certificate of a patient's death in the London Hospital ; also a blank convict certificate, which had been obtained from the transport-office, and afterwards filled up with Mr. Capper's signature as the generous donor of 21. The prisoner had,in London only, been apprehended 15 times and convicted 13. The prisoner White, who turned her face to the wall during the reading of her catalogue of offences, made no defence. Mr. PAYNTER said, this case showed the extent to which the charitable feeling of the benevolent had been abused. But the remedy was entirely in the hands of those who wished to be truly charitable and to effectually stop this system of plunder, so destruc tive to the really poor. What they should do was never to give without applying to the Mendicity Society—a very excellent institution, which did much good—and to other sources. We did not do our duty by satisfying our conscience in giving at the moment, and it might be as well to mention that by a law in former times it was an offence to give alms without making inquiry, and he hoped that by these cases being brought before the public it might put an end to this harmful system of charity. The prisoner White, to whom it was useless to say a n y th ing , would be committed for three months with hard la bour.

N ° . 18.276.] LONDON, MONDAY ~ • • APRIL 21 1851. - • ' •„ c • 7 jority, to the cause of order and peace, We do not, therefore, believe that alarm was ever entertained in any quarter for the certain and absolute safety of her Majesty, in whatsoever manner or in whatever place she may think fit to take a part in the amusements or the pursuits of her people. Such inventions are grossly absurd and unfounded. But the move ments and emotions of great crowds and multi tudes have always something solemn and exciting about them, even when they are directed to the most harmless and agreeable objects ; and under such cir cumstances the comfort and personal ease of the Sove reign, and that Sovereign a lady surrounded by her children,"require every precaution which can be taken to secure them. It would be intolerable if the Queen herself were the only person in the land ex cluded from the Exhibition by the vulgar curiosity of the public ; and it is not improbable that in the course of the next few weeks this country will re ceive the visits of other illustrious personages no less entitled by their rank to the respect and deference of those who meet them. We hope that in every in stance the visitors to the Exhibition, of whatsoever class or rank, will.bear in mind that its success de pends in great measure on the propriety of those who frequent it, both towards the high and the low. The Royal Commissioners have set an admirable example in disarming the spirit of emulation whenever it threatened to rise into national jealousy between the exhibitors : and it is surprising with what union and good feeling this complicated work has been carried on. Now comes the part of the public; and we are confident that they will feel that our national charac ter for hospitality, good sense, and politeness is quite as liable to be canvassed by the world on such an occa sion as our manufactures, our works of art, and our machines. DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH DENMARK. (From the Chronicle.) Although the return journey between Copenhagen and London, which was briefly described in my letter of the 10th inst. from Lowestoft, was performed in eighteen hours less than the time which was taken up by the outward trip, I have no doubt that the transit between the two capitals may be accomplished, even under existing circumstances, more speedily than was the case with my fellow-travellers and myself in our second attempt at an express through Denmark. As has been already hinted, the party was rather too large for pioneering service, and their appurtenances were somewhat unwieldy. But a person really de sirous of proceeding from London to Copenhagen with all the expedition which the present means of conveyance will afford, might easily leave London at five P.M. on Saturday, by the Eastern Counties Railway, and find himself comfortably installed in his notel at Copenhagen about the same hour on Tuesday afternoon. He will reach Hjerting, from Lowestoft, early on Monday morning, and twelve hours will give ample room and verge enough to cress the peninsula of Jutland, by the route which we ontrselves took at Snozhoe. In twenty-two hours more, at the outside —which would allow for longer delays on the road than is necessary, or should, indeed, be tolerated— he will be in Copenhagen. But a person who under takes such a journey must gird up his loins a little, and retrench all superfluity of baggage. He need not confine himself to a shirt-collar and a tooth brush; but let him not affect hat-boxes, nor triumph in English portmanteaus of solid leather, lest his joy be con verted into mourning. And if, after having achieved his conquest over time and space, he would return as speedily as he came, let him be innocent of the know ledge of cherry brandy during his stay in Copen hagen. Should he once taste that generou s li q ueur, the next step is inevitable. Buy one or two cases of it he must, and no actuary's assistance will then be required to calculate that, what with the cording on of these precious packages at the beginning of every stare, and the uncording of them at the end of it, the probabilities are strong that, on the traveller's arrival at Hjerting, all that he will see of Wednesday s steamer will be the smoke from her funnel as she speeds on her way across the German Ocean, rejoic ing in a cargo of black cattle, pickled.pork, and boxes of Jutland salmon. A route which may be traversed in three days, in spite of natural impediments and imperfect arrange ments for travelling, offers even at present greater in ducements than those which Hamburgh o:r Ostend hold out, the journey from London to Copenhagen via Lowestoft and fljerting being not only shorter but cheaper than either of the routes now taken. But great improvements in the means of conveyance are already matured, while others are under the anxious consideration of the Danish Government. In the be- ginning of May a diligence is to be started from Hjerting, a great advance on the open basket wag gons, in which our party shivered through Jutland. I was informed, also, by Dr. Poulsen, a member of the Second Chamber, who has devoted much time and at tention to the details of the whole subject, that in the summer a steamer is to run from Fredericia, in Jutland, a town a little above the ferry at Snozhoe, to Copenha gen. It is calculated that the voyage will be performeu in 14 hours, and this will reduce the journey between London and Copenhagen to two days and a half. In the mean time a new and direct road is to be constructed at the cost of the Government between Kolding and Hjerting, and endeavours will be :made to con tinue the works on the line of railway which has been Surveyed between Roeskilde and Korsoer. At present there is some little difficulty about funds ; for the heroic efforts which the Danes made to preserve their national independence in the late struggle were ac companied by corresponding sacrifices. That portion of the railway which is already open, namely, between Roeskilde and Copenhagen cost 500,C00 rix-dolkn; per Danish tnile, which is equal to 4 7-10 English miles. The expense. therefore, of construction amounted to 11,0001. a mile English, which appears a large sum when it is borne in mind that the steepest gradient throughout the line is as 1 to 250. The Hamburgh and Kiel Railway cost just half of what has been expended on the line between Roeskilde and Copenhagen. The latter pays to its proprietors a dividend of only 2 per cent. ; and as a natural consequence in Denmark, where capital commands a good rate of interest, the shares have fallen to 50 per cent. discount, and some backwardness is manifested in taking up the shares for the 101 miles (Danish) which will continue the iine to the Great Belt. I cannot persuade myself, however, that this reluctance will be long-lived. The sum required to carry the Zealand line through to Korsoer is not more than 4,500,000 rix-dollars, or 500,0001. sterling ; and the national importance of the work, as well as the commercial advantages which must follow its completion, are so obvious, that every true Dane will be anxious to promote such an undertaking as rapidly as possible. The present dividend of two per cent. depends upon the returns received from merely local traffic, but there is every reason to expect that this will be augmented to four or five per cent. upon the completion of the line to K.Ursoer. A line of railway through Funen and Jut land, following the route which our party travelled, Las also been projected; but no surveys have yet been made, and doubts have been expressed in com petent quarters whether the Funen line would at present pay, as the expense of carrying it by Odense would be too great to reimburse the shareholders for their outlay, and profit would be out of the question from the traffic on a line which should avoid, on ac- count of engineering difficulties, the chief city in the , island. But an iron road through Jutland' in yo,ves no obstacles which may not be surmounted by a moderate expenditure of money, and is the one thing needed to develope the natural resources of the Peninsula. Your Special Correspondent on the agriculture of Denmark has stated, in speak ing of the comparative fertility of the vari ous provinces or districts of the kingdom, that Jutland contains the greatest proportion of unprofitable and unimproveable land ; and I have reason to believe that he derived his information from excellent authority. Nevertheless, nothing throughout our journey so forcibly a rrested my atten tion, or has retained ao strong a hold u p on my mind, es the vast capacity for improv ement of the district through which we travelled ; a nd I was informed that a large portion of Jutland exhibits the same features. 'Tie wastes of flying sand re ferred to by your ur Special Correspondent are not foun d in the district in ques tion ; but heath and bogs assert an almost absolute dominion over it. The soil, however, I feel well assured, would abundantly repay the labours of the husbandman. A peaty loam, frequently intermixed with limestone pebbles, e xtends itself, Fenerally at a depth of about one foot, over a subsoil of gravel, in which small granite boulders often turn up. Th e perpetual succession of slopes, more or less abrupt, indicates at a glance the ease with which the greater p o rtion of the land might be reclaimed ; and occa sional instances presented themselves on our route, in which these natural facilities . had not been neglected. The course adopted in . reclaiming the tracts in ellk.'s.• tion from the waste , . as I was informed by an a griculturist . in Copenhagen, as follows :—A large space of heath is . first cleared by setting it on fire ; after a short time natural grasses' spring up, which are fed down for two or three years by sheep o r cattle ; and the land is then broken goodplo ug crops, o a p n s I gravelunderstand , is rewardwith the this i surface s v e th ep e soil. Very process, and the onlyreascn—but a sufficient one — w h y i t has not hither to been more extensively pursued is the want of a market.

' ' ' [PRICE SD. prise among its inhabitants that Jutland stands at present so much in the back-ground. Five out of every six of the Danish merchants who have esta bliihed themselves in Eee,latel or Scotland are na tives of the peninsula. The Jutland farmers are an active race, fond of gain, arid of thrifty habits; but as the internal commerce of that part of Denmark is carried on almost wholly through the medium of barter, there is but little inducement for greater ex ertions than are required to insure enough, and a little to spare. A railroad through Jutland to Hjerting, and its certain consequences—speedy com munication with, and remunerating markets in England—will change the aspect of the peninsula like magic. Flourishing towns will spring up around the railroad stations, and the brownness of heath and moor will be succeeded by the yellow hues of ripening harvests. That a line of railway will run through Jutland in the course of a few years, I have not the Tightest doubt. The Danish people are too intelli gent to ignore the immense benefits of railway com munication. Education is universal. Every man, woman, and child (above a certain age) in Denmark is able at least to read, write, and keep accounts. The people at large enjoy also an unusual share of poli tical power, for every man of full age, and untainted by crime, has a right to vote in the election of mem bers of the Second Chamber. As the project of a railroad through Jutland is prodigiously popular there, and will be of great advantage to the other parts of Denmark, by completing the direct line of communication with England, the works will pro bably be undertaken as soon as the condition of the public finances will admit, at the expense of the State, if in the interval a private company does not come forward and obtain a concession of the line. I have dwelt at some length on the present means of communication between England and Denmark, and the prospect just opened of obtaining in a short time still greater facilities for international intercourse, on account of the great importance to both countries of a route at once rapid and direct. Denmark is now, and must for many years yet to come remain, an agricultural country. Half the population, according to the figures given by your Special Correspondent, are tillers of the ground. The only manufacture which is carried on to any extent is that of iron ; and both the iron and the coal which are used come ex clusively from England, for the coal found in Den mark is unfit for smelting purposes, being of that kind which is called the newest formation. The ability of Denmark to purchase a larger amount of our manufactured fabrics than she has hitherto taken must, of course, be measured by our capacity to con sume the corn and the cattle which she can spare—a capacity which, owing to the pressure of a rapidly increasing population, only finds a limit in the means of supply. The quantity of cattle shipped from Den mark of late years has been very considerable ; and I was informed by Dr. Poulsen, to whose authority I have already referred, that in 1850 no less than 12,500 cattle were sent to London from Hjerting and Tonning alone. Now that a regular line of com munication is established between Hjerting and Lowestoft, a great increase in the supplies of provisions may be expected to follow. The Pfince, on her first return voyage, carried out 60 bulloks and 179 pigs, besides 750 cwts. of pickled pork. On her second return voyage she had cn board 63 bullocks, 80 pigs, and 4 horses, and this vessel done will probably bring to Lowestoft during the season from 1 ; 800 to 2,000 head of cattle. A Danish merchant, who was one of our fellow-passengers, told me that be had entered into a contract to ship from Hjerting at the end of this month a full cargo of cattle by a steamer belong• ing to the General Steam Navigation Company ; and I know that a steam-boat, to be called the Jutland, is now building on the account of the Danish Govern ment, and is intended to convey cattle between the A gger Channel, high up on the north-western coast of the peninsula, and London. Lowestoft, however, would, I should think, be selected as the port of de barkation. Altogether, the attempt of the Northern Steam Packet Company to establish a direct commu nication with Denmark cannot fail to lead, directly or indirectly, to results of the greatest importance to the two countries. One great want, however, must be supplied as soon as possible. There is no pier at Hjerting, and it takes two days to drag on board a cargo of cattle, which, if that accommodation were at hand, might be shipped in as many hours. Surveys have been made by a practical English engineer, whose report to me was that an excellent pier might be built for 1,4001. When this is done, Hjerting will command the greatest cattle traffic of any of the seaports on the Western coast of Denmark. The passenger traffic it must soon entirely monopolize, but ladies cannot be ex pected to select the new route until some better means of landing be found than a ricketty fraam and the back of a Danish fisherman. A good-sized punt, and a sloping stage on wheels, will be much better adapted to tranquillize the apprehensions of our fair countrywomen, whose love of the beautiful and the picturesque may lead them to explore the " fresh fields and pastures new" of Scandinavia. _ . sod to 060 'low, lb t our market Althoue equal to tne Id C ows frail )wing to the !eller.

THE TURKISH SQUADRON AT PORTS:SWUM—The Turkish frigate Mirate Zafre, Captain Mehemet Bey, and brig Sara Bahri, were towed out of Portsmouth Harbour on Saturday by the Echo steam-tug, and anchored at Spithead. The frigate, when off the Spit Buoy, fired a salute of 17 guns in compliment to the flag of Admiral Sir Bladen Capel, which the Victory returned. It is not certain on which day they sail for Constantinople. The second captain of the Mirate Zafre has succeeded to the command of the brig, vacant by the death of Captain Boy, her commander. With respect to these inte resting foreigners, we may here observe, that during the six months they have been with us, both officers and men have been much on shore; that their conduct has, on all occasions, been marked with the utmost decotum; no quarreling nor dispute has occurred; a more quiet, orderly, inoffensive, unpresuming people we never have seen. They have not mixed much with the inhabitants of Portsmouth, but this has been owing to their general —,Y3 may say, their satire ignorance of the English language, and their not finding any persons speaking the Turkish language, which has rendered any general intercourse impossible. They have not expended much money on shore, excepting some outlay for warm cloth ing and shoes to enable them to stand the cold of the winter season. They hove been tolerably healthy, and we understand, have not suffered more than the gene rality of the inhabitants from the influenza that has that they pve; veiled so long in this locality. The m en are gennrwhil small, very cleanly in their persons, so ber, quiet, and disposed, and if during their visit t he y may not have made many friends, we can vouch w ith safety have not made an enemy. After the conclusion of the trial of the steam-frigate Penelope, Captain Lyster, on Thursday, a party of arti ficers from Portsmouth yard were sent on board her at Spithead, to rectify the defect in' her capstan. Thi s vv ,, accomplished by the, party working all night. The difficulty she exp b r ic i sp„d in getting a back turn with her engines was said -s9 proceed from the new machi nery working stiffly, ancrnot from any defect. On Sa turday evening Admiral the Hon. Sir Bladen Capel, K.C.8., went out in the Sprightly steamer, and paid a visit to Commodore Bruce. He remained on board the Penelope an hour and upwards, returning into harbour about six o'clock. The crews of the Penelope and her tender, the Tenzer, were all on board at sunset on Sa turday, and both vessels sailed early on Sunday morning or the coast of Africa. • — Hogue, 60, screw-Ship, Captain M'Dougall, has re turned to Queenstown; from cruising in the chops of the Channel for the relief of the windbound.

Apollo, troop ship, Commander Rawstorne, arrived at Malta from Corfu, on her way to the West Indies, on the 11th instant. Vengeance, 84, Captain Lord Edward Russell, is to have new fore and main yards, which will be fished—Z. e., strengthened in the slings, in the same manner as those recently furnished to the Prince Regent. Her present yards will be returned to the dockyard. It is now said sho will go to Spithead on the Ist of May, where she will further fill up, if not complete, her complement. Another lieutenant has been appointed to her—viz., Mr. A. Bathurst. Simoom, iron screw-ship, has discharged her ballast, and has been brought into the steam basin at Portsmouth, preparatory to being taken into dock to be converted to a troop steamer. PORTSZIOUTH, SIINDAY.—La Belle Alliance, hired freight -ship, arrived at Spithead yesterday m orning from Corn, with part of the 36th R?giment on board. The Lady Flora freight ship arrived to-day from the same place, - also with troops.

WOOLWICH, APRIL 19.—The Vivid, Dover mai steam-packet, will not be completed in her re-fitting et Woolwich until about the end of the present month. In the meantime Captain Smithett, Commander of the Vivid, is to be specially appointed to another vessel to convey his Majesty King Leopold of Belgium to En land for the purpose of visiting her M a j est y, and being present at the opening of the Great Exhibition in Hyde park on the lst of May next. The crew that brought round the Greenock steam frigate to Woolwich are to return to Portsmouth, and will navigate the Leopard stcam•frigate to that port, to be made ready for sea. The Cyclops steam-frigate is expected to leavo Wool wich, fur Sheerness, cn Wednesday or Thursday- next, and will remain as an advanced war steamer at that port. The officers of the Rattler steam-sloop invited their Commander, Arthur Cumming, to dinner at the Ship Hotel, Woolwich, on the evening of the day on which she was paid ofr, as a parting tribute of the many plea sant days they had spent together on board the vessel. The Lords of the A-liniralty have highly approved of the returns made by Commander Arthur Cumming dur irg his service on the coast of Africa, as they have proved cre3itable to all on board. Their Lordships have also made a special memorandum of the correctness and neatness of the pay hooks, and have ordered Mr. RuLit Collins, clerk of (I S4B), to be entered as a super numerary on board the flag-ship at Woolwich, and granted him six weeks' leave of absence. 1501. was of fersd for the chimpanzee brought over in the Rattler the night before it :lied of asthma, owing to the cold it had caught on its arrival in England. DEATH OF LORD LANGDALE. Scarcely a month has elapsed since the late Master of the Rolls took his final leave of the court and the bar over which he had so long presided, and already we are called upon to record the melancholy close of a life which had been exhausted in the severest labours of the judi cial service. Lord Langdale expired on Good Friday, at Tunbridge wens, whither he had repaired about a fort night ago for the benefit of his health. The over-exer tion of his prolonged attendance in the Curt of Chan cery had produced a degree of exhaustion from which he vas unable unimpaired to o rally, l t y His faculties, which had re mainedo the last m omen t of his judicial duty, collapsed under that repose which came too late. A paralytic , and th oug h h o p es h a d at one time com plete rest would revive his Lordship's vit a l p owers " the been stroke entertained fli° that i ch ange of scene and silver chord was already loosened, and th e b ow l was broken at the fountain." Henry Bickersteth, Lord Langdale, was born on the 18th of June, 1783, in the county of Westmoreland, where his father belonged to the class of the small landed gentry of the north of England. He had conse quently not yet completed his 68th year. Origin a lly destined for the medical profession, in which he had al ready completed his studies with success, he rl v o i f si o te r d fo t r h d e ; Continent with the family of the late Earl and it was by the advice of those discerning friends that he was induced to embark on the more ambitious career in which his remarkable talents already promised his no ordinary success. He entered Caius College, Cam bridge, where he took his degree as Senior Wrangler in 1808. Three years afterwards he was called to the bar by the Society of the Inner Temple, and he engaged at once in the arduous duties of his profession. Throughout the whole course of his life Lord Lange dale was ardently devoted to the cause of liberal opinions, and although he figured but little at any time in the arena of party politics, no man pursued with greater enthusiasm the work of reform, or brought a more subtle intellect to bear upon the great problems of social and legal improvement. His speculative opinions upon these topics brought him into close and habitual contaet with that remarkable set of men who, about a quarter of a century ago, looked up to Mr. Bentham as their sage and lawgiver; and although the philosopher of Queen-square, Westminster, was hardly destined to witness the prac tical application of his Sybilline labours, no small por tion of the reforms we have since accomplished in our laws, our administration, and the Constitution itself, may be traced to that class of thinkers who claimed to be his disciples, and amongst whore Lord Langdale oc cupied a distinguished place. Assiduous in his devotion to his professional duties, Mr. Bickersteth rose to great eminence in the Equity Courts, to which he confined his practice; and perhaps at the period of his career to which we are now advert- ing a higher estimate was formed of his powers than his performances subsequently warranted. Indeed it may be slid that his personal reputation stood even higher than his forensic weight and celebrity amongst the party which had at that time recently been sum moned to the councils of the empire. Probably it was with a view to the services Mr. Bichersteth was expected to render in the catEe of law reform, and possibly in cart to supply the loss which had recently been sus tained by the rupture of the Whig Cabinet with Lord Brougham, that the equity counsel was suddenly ap pointed on the 19th of January, 1836, to succeed Lord Cottenham no Master of the Rolls, and was at the same tiry calls dto the House of Pcers. By an unusual ex ception to the course of hih legal preferment in this country,ligLordship had thus risen to one of the most honourable and important posts in his profession without having mingled in active political life, and without having either sate in the House of Commons or held the office of a legal adviser to the Crown. But a few months had elapsed after his accession to the Mastership of the Rolls when Lord Langdale deli vered in the House of Lords his remarkable speech on the administration of justice in the Court of Chancery, and on the appellate jurisdiction of their Lordships' House. To the opinions elpressed in that speechomd in favour of the division of the duties of the Great Seal, Lord Langdale constantly adhered; but when the occa sion arrived at which it might have been possible for him with more robust health and greater energy to carry these plans into execution, his time of action was already verging to its close. Upon the resignation of Lord Cottenham last year, the Great Seal was more than once tendered to Lord Langdale by the head of the present Administration; but though he consented to act as First Commissioner, and actually sate for a short time in the Lord Chancellor's Court and in the House of Lords in that capacity, the intense application to which the state of the Court of Chancery had condemned him forbade any further stretch of his powers, and he longed only for that repose which the expiration of 15 years' uninterrupted judicial service entitled him to claim, though not to enjoy. As a judge the reputation of Lord Langdale has at times fallen somewhat below what was expected of him in the earlier years of his professional life. Ho wanted that boldness of judgment and self-guiding energy which has enabled our greatest lawyers to apply and even to frame the results of scientific analysis with instinctive felicity and precision. But he was unsurpassed in the lucid and methodical exposition of the facts with which he had to deal. His elaborate and cautious dissection of every case before him led him by a safe though slow process to the discovery of truth; and the subtlety of his logical powers enabled him to unravel with indefa tigable accuracy the most intricate chain of reasoning. His labours as a reformer of the Court of Chancery fell infinitely short of his intentions and his desires, though even these he powerfully and systematically contributed to the new rules for the removal of delays, the reduction of costs, and the abolition of needless formalities. But the philoso phical lawyer was bellied by the duties and obliga tions of the active judge. No man ever sate in that court who was more anxious to reform its abuses, ar the last disappoi n t ment o f hi s lif e was th e production y Lord John Russell of the miserable Chancery Bill of the present session. Lord Langdale brought to his office a personal dignity not inferior to that which it conferred upon bimselt, for ho was a man earnestly devoted to truth and justice— his whole lita was unsullied by the suspicion of a job or of subservience to any but the loftiest motives of action. lie preserved the simplicityofb bise exclusivelymsnnersand resided,hislove of literature in the reside nce on the confines of lfformed, succeeded se Rich mond-park, where of lane years and in the gardens or library he had laim 3e amongst Younger and more active en have alread y to the functions ho so recently dischar g ed, but the lawyers who have filled the c hi e f Offices their professio n, and who mi g ht hav e filled th e highest of of all, none leaves purer fame than the late Master of the R o lls.
