Ifhowever the party, from any cause, wished to cancel the Policy, he could not onlydraw ont all hehas put in, viz., 2251., but a certain bonus of 621. 20 /I.los Cd 2251. 5221.287 d 2871. 2s. 9d. 2s. 9d. in the bargain, which is more than one-fourth of the whole of his payments, or he could either draw out a part, 201. or 501., diminishing the Policy only by the assured value of the sum se drawn out at the age when withdrawn. See pagess and 7 In detailed pamphlet, by F. G. P. Nelson, Esq. On comparison ef these two tables it will be seen that a person under the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance can secure the follow ing advantages, viz., Ist. For a less sum, paid annually, he can assure a larger sum in case of death than under the ordinary system. 2dly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages, THREE times as Much as on the ordinary system. 3rdly. In the event of inability or omission top ay, his policy remains still his property, of the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments for any namber of years ; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets nothing. 4thly. Should he require to increase or decrease the amount of his policy, he can do so at pleasure. He can at any time, by giving a fortnight's notice, Withdraw any part from 11 up to the whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, t years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greater or even its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as la a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can do no such thing, but his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any fund to fy to for aid, all his hard-earned savings become forfeited to the society, and his misfortunes serve to ben efit the pockets of his mor efortunate co-assurers. Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlook ed and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be universa lly recognised and adopted when the principles are impar tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits becom e widely diffused. It confers greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the bands of the Comp an y to the re p resent at i ve s of the Depositor ix case of death, thus combining the ADVANTAGES IN OF A BANK WITH ASSURANCE COMPAN THEY BENE FITS OF In case of endowment assurances the advantages of the DEPOSIT system are still more striking.

This Company has bees enabled to secure, in the celebrated Ne vada District, Calitornia, the right to purchase the large property of Thos. 0. Larkin. Esq., reported upon, as after mentioned, to contain 21,600 acres in extent, and to possess extensive gold-bearing quartz veins and auriferous deposits, and gold !washings, and to be well adapted for agricultural purposes. • The property is described as being situated on the west bank of the Feather River, which is a tributary of the Great Sacramento River, and to be at a distance of about 195 miles brwater communi cation from San Francisco. The Sacramento is at all times naviga ble for steamers ; and it is stated that, during a greater portion of the year,.vessels can navigate the Feather River up to the property. The estate is freehold, and the vendors guarantee an indisputable title, free from incumbrances. The mineral importance and value of the property will be best Judged of by the following extract from the report of the Surveyor, Nicholas Gray, Esq., who, in September, 1852, surveyed it as an officer under orders from the United States Government. After giving a detailed description of each lot, he sums up his report as follows : " I class the whole estate, containing 21,656 70-100 acres, as mi neral land. Gold is found from the bottom of the smallest gully to the summit of the highest mountain on the land, in the soil as in the quartz rock. Some indications of iron are to be observed at the south-west corner of the Table Mountain. Quicksilver has been dis covered in the same vicinity, and I have been informed by men of veracity that a few diamonds have also been dug from the slope of. the same mountain. The whole front of the estate on Feather River is about 24 miles, taking its meanders, and I believe the go!d bearing quartz rock is to be found all along the bank of that stream, and extending back generally two or three miles. By reference to to the map you have all the principal points laid down of quartz rock, rich diggings, &c." Further important details will be found in the accompanying document and map of the property; and other particulars of an in teresting nature respecting this extensive territory may be inspected at the office of the Company. Mr. Gray states in his Reports that specimens of the quartz veins were taken by him from the estate. These Mr. Larkin forwarded to London for anai3 sis, and the result of that analysis, as given in the appendix, shows that with careful management a large return for the capital invested may be reasonably expected from the Company's mining operations. The working capital of 100,0001., leaving the remainder for pur chase money, will, it is anticipated, be amply sufficient to conduct all the operations of the Company; end it is intended to expend the same chiefly in erecting extensive central mills for grinding the aur if e rous quartz on the property, and for reducing and extracting old from its matrices, whether sands, earths, or quartz, in the e eotnhoempi property, e rmanner;ty. whose arnedn rents also in d e bne couraging uponfarmeprsertofeestlettlaend of its mineralriches. The the extraction commensurate with its value and location, and who would In no tmhoestg complete, way interfere d to sell the property at a price one-half of included in the present capital. and the remaining half which is the capital is increased to £500,000, and when is to be paid when amount of 20 per cent. have been paid to tt e The vendors have agree dividends to probably not one-hundredth part of the mere in mollies is thus paid to be extracted ofr m the lands, independently of Shareholders the lls be.fore mentioned.

The Boars will be prepared to make sales and grant leases of portions of the Feather River Estate. The Board of Supervision believe that they indulge in no exagge ration when expressing their conviction that the estate fairly put to work to its full capabilities will, for many years, annually yield as dividend—what may reasonably be expected from all succes ful gold companies—at least 20 per cent. on the en ti re ca pital besides bonuses. The investment in the shares must, th ere f ore, be equal to that offered by any other company, either in A us t ra li a or C a lifornia. The Board of Supervision will have the power of carrying out the contract with the vendors, and of settling the statutes of the com pany, under which all its affairs will be regulated. The deposit will be 21. per share, thus paying up the shares in lull at the time of allot• ment, and all deposits applicable to the purchase money received from shares sold will beheld in like manner as the shares wouldhave been if not sold—viz., until the surveyor's report has been received, quiet possession given, and a good title exhibited, and a proper con veyance executed. Applications for shares to be addressed to the Secretary, and to `he Brokers of the Company ; and no application can receive atten ton unless references be given to Bankers or Stockbrokers. APPENDIX, EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM NICHOLAS GRAY. U.S., Surveyor to th Hon. T. 0. LARKIN. Dated Hamilton, June 1 1 th, i 852. " With this you will receive a small box of specimens of gold bearing quartz. The specimens here sent are not selected specimens, because I wished to inform you correctly, or within the truth, so as to bear future examination. I saw much richer specimens. " This was dug out of a hole about 1% miles from Phcenix Mill known as the Bloomingdale ledge or lead." It is stated by Mr. Larkin's agent in this country that the box was sent unopened from San Francisco to London, and assayed by John son and Matthey, and that in the specimens no gold was visible to the naked eye. The report of Messrs. Johnson and Matthey is as follows : " Assay-office, 79, Hatton-garden, London, August 25, 1852. "The box of gold quartz had half of each piece taken off, and the whole crushektogether ve-y fine, giving grains of gold, which would not pass through the sieve, equal to Soz. 10 dwt. of fine gold to the ton of 20 cwt. The fine powder produced, by assay, gold equal to oz. 10 dwts. of fine gold to the ton of 20 cwt.

It is intended that the machinery to be erected by the fftther River Company shall be capable of washing and reducing the same eantity at least of gold ore per annum as is minded and crushed by the celebrated St. Juin del Rey Company of Brazil. viz., about 60,000 tons per annum. The average produce of gold per ton, ob tain. d by that company, as per their pnbl shed reports, gives a tune o f 11 . 115. per ton, of ore only as contrasted with the above extraor dinary produce of 841. per ton. An average produce per ton of ore of one-tenth only of this sum—say 81. per ton—Mist yield profits much larger than the 20 per cen t. dividend anticipated by the direc tors. .. ....‘.‘,... ~,,,,1 -VI . ... - z -- . , .. .. . . . •ote i a( i,-r4.;-s4'tXr :;.- ;s l ' - • q-z.... 41 " "-e , . //- Z --4 t--c- 4/1 tho - , ••••• , ,,,e• .111-1 ..., - :i.:: :: ' ,,,, ..Y- , .,- ~. n ..--- .. •*, _. 0. - 1/ r :"' . ~.---..• ) ,: t. , „ - ..s ' I . 2V - 4 •, .. igt* • • ( ~,,f' .„.'.

M. Ros de Olano replied, and made a warm eulogiurn on Narvaez, though, he said, he had when in power carried the principle of authority to excess. In the sitting on the 23d the debate was resumed by the Minister of Ma rine, and was continued by M. Pena Aguayo, who maintained the right of the general to return to the Senate. The Minister of the Interior pro ceeded to reply, and was speaking when the post left. The proceedings in the Chamber of Deputies on the 23d were confined to the examination of election returns. The committee on the demand of the government for authorisation to levy the taxes has elected M. Esteban Collantes its pre sident, and M. Hurtado its secretary. The cold continued excessive. The 23d being a holiday, the Stock Exchange was not open. [ PRICE 5D . THE FRENCH EMPIRE. The Constitutionnel and the Assembled Nationale, which, although greatly opposed to each other in general politics, and both organs in manufactures and commerce of the Protectionist party, attack the Debats for taking under its protection the ar guments of M. Dollfus in favour of admitting fo reign conipeiition in cotton manufactures. The arguments in the two Protectionist journals are nearly the same, and generally speaking they are without novelty. We only think it necessary to extract from the Constitutionnel a paragraph m which it attempts to show that protection against the competition of foreigners does not prevent competition in France. It says " There were in France at the beginning of last year 4,30Q000 spindles for cotton, divided between 650 esta blishments., and occupying 60,000 workmen. It is esti mated that since the consolidation of 'order in 1852, nearly 500,000 more have been constructed, or are being constructed. If there be a monopoly then, it is one that is singularly divided and warmly disputed." There is nothing else of interest in the original columns of the Paris journals. From the exposé des motif of the Budget of 1854 we make the following extract : " France is, we are pleased to hope, about to com mence from next year a fresh ascensional movement. The indirect revenues of 1854 have been estimated by the Government at 851,756;050f. This amount exceeds by about 42 millions the produce of the indirect revenues of 1852. But experience has shown that the produce of this kind of receipts increases in times of security and of calm. The produce of the indirect revenues rose, for in stance, from about 569 millions in 1833, to 828 millions in 1846, or at the average rate of 20 millions a-year. The calculation of improvement which we have reckoned on is therefore borne out by the experience of the past. extreme probability of its correctness may be seen when it is considered that the-rommencement of 1852 was subjected to the influence of the political crisis con nected with the events of the 2d of December. The pro duce of the indirect taxes during the interval from the Ist of March, 1852, to the Ist of March of the present year amounted to 821,286,000 f. In order to arrive at the previsions which we have adopted relative to 1854, it will be seen that it is only necessary to suppose an in crease of 15 millions a-year, and it is difficult to enter tain a more moderate hope than that which in a pacific state of things supposes such an increase. The ensemble of the receipts for 1854 being estimated at 1,520,039,572 f. and the expenditure at 1,519,250,942 f., the general budget presents a surplus of receipts of 1,388,630 f. This surplus would even have amounted to 2,734,957 f., if we had not placed among the expenses the annuities regu lated by the vote of the bills on the repurchase of the different canals." GERMANY. Among other propositions that will engage the attention of the Germanic Diet in considering the question of the federal fortresses, is.that for the construction of a fortified camp around Rastatt (Baden), for which A us t r i a requ i res 4,000,000 florins, obe paid by the Confederated States. The German Journal of Frankfort states that the French Government has proposed to the Ger manic Diet to enter with it into a treaty for the protection of literary property, but that the Diet refuses to open at once negotiations on the subject, as the moment is not opportune. On the 23d, the police of Heidelberg went to the house of Professor Hagen, ex-representative of the National Assembly of Frankfort, and seized all his papers. A Vienna letter in the Augsburg Gdzette states that the Austrian troops who were on their return from the South have received orders to halt. The Archduke William, Commander-in-Chief of the Austrian army, by an order of the day of the 23d, makes known that the army is not expected to take part in the subscription now raising for erecting a church to commemorate the escape of his Majesty from assassination. The reason assigned is that their pay is too small to permit them to make sacrifices, and also that they have given so many proofs of their loyalty that no more are needed. A deputation of the Saxon colony from Transylvania was received on the 22d by the Arch duke Francis, father of the Emperor of Austria, and presented an address expressing their hearty congratulations on his Imperial Majesty's recent escape. - The general account of the materiel of the War department for the year 1851 has just been pub lished, from which it appears the whole value of such materiel, as far as it can be approximatively estimated, was on the 31st of December of that year 448,857,4811., being 11,570,180 f. more than . at the corresponding period of 1850 . In the items provisions are set down at 13,600,356 f. ; hoSpital expenses, 16,895,2841. ; clothing, 22,758,197 f. • military bedding and camp equip age, 16,327,931 f. ; general remount of cavalry, 38998,610 f. ; forage, 8,349,935 f. ; artillery, 28'9,587,558f. ; engineers, 17,246,675 f. ; powder and saltpetre, 10,429,5091. The different ser vices in Algeria amounted to 3,509,258 f. The Minister of Police has addressed the follow ing circular to the prefects, dated " March 15." It would appear to have been called for by the demon stration made by the Socialists of Paris at the late funeral of Mme. Raspail "Monsieur le Prefet,—The Socialist party appears in clined to again put itself in movement, and seek for op portunities to bring itself before the world. Availing themselves of sentiments which are entitled to respect, they, in particular, appear to seize on the occasion of the funeral of certain persons to organise these manifesta tions, which assume a character exclusively political. In proportion as the Government is disposed to give every possible latitude to meetings which are formed under the inspiration of family affection, so much it ought to pay attention to prevent this kind of profanation, which seizes as a pretext on the mortal remains of some one quite unknown to the crowd which follow the coffin, in order to stimulate a respect which is only a falsehood, and tb make a political demonstration which is evident to every one. We are no longer in a period when a handful of men could, without obstacle or repression, fill the public mind with fear or agitation, and the au thorities are bound to prevent and repress all that may tend to compromise tranquillity and interfere with good order. I therefore recommend you, Monsieur le Prefet, to adopt measures to prevent any such manifestations. The best means of doing so will be to prevent too great an assemblage at the house of the deceased, to dissipate every crowd of persons which should have the character of a mob, to prevent too great a number of persons unconnected with the family from entering the churchyard, and to interdict any kind of address or speech. fl It is most importarrt - to unite -the respect due to the dead with the measures called for by public safety,and you will have to recommend to your agents the greatest prudence and reserve in these delicate circumstances. I request you to keep me informed of any facts which may arise in your department connected with this matter." A letter from Toulon says that the sailing ves sels of the Mediterranean fleet have taken five months' provisions on board, and not two months', as at first stated. The steamers have only taken supplies for three months, as they had no room for any more. Orders have, it is said, been given for fitting out the Friedland and the lena, and also the Tilsitt, but not with so much expedition. It has been stated that the inauguration of the tomb of the Emperor Napoleon, at the Hotel des Invalides, is to take place on the sth May, the an niversary of his death ; but, as Ascension-day this year falls on that date, the ceremony has been fixed for the 4th. It is to be attended by the Emperor, the Imperial family, deputations of the army and navy, the Ministers, and the great bodies of the State. . The Peace deputation has arrived here from Lon don. The gentlemen forming it are Sir James Duke, Bart., M.P., Sir Edward Buxton, Bart., Mr. Samuel Gurney, Mr. Wm. Gladstone, Mr. St. Leger Glyn, Mr. Thomas Dent, Mr. J. D. Powles, and Mr. G. Barclay. They are commissioned by nearly 3,000 of the merchants, bankers, and traders of London, to wait upon the French Emperor, and to present to him a declaration of the friendly feel ings which exist in England towards the people of France, and to deprecate the ill-feeling which the tone of certain English journals has been calculated to arouse. The deputation was received yesterday by the Emperor. The Evening Presse, in its usual weekly commer cial bulletin, says : "Business is very quiet in Paris, both in the manu factures and in the retail trade. The continuance of the cold weather does considerable injury to several branches of business. The fete of Longchamps, which is usually a period of increased activity in many branches of trade, has passed over almost without any effect. The export houses have, during the past fortnight, given some or ders for the manufacturers, and English houses have made some purchase?in perfumery and gloves. Several manufacturers are also employed for the Brazil and South American trades, but almost all the orders for the United States are executed. The accounts from Rouen, Mul house, and other points, state that business is also very dull there." There was not a great deal of business transacted on the Bourse yesterday, but the sales effected were principally at a lower figure than the currency of Saturday. Bank Stock experienced a heavy fall, this description of securities being operated in at a decline of 20f. In the Three per Cents. for cash there is no change to report from the last quoted prices ; but the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. exhibit a decline of sc. For the account the Three per Cents. have fallen 15c., while the Four arid-a-Half per Cents. remain as last reported. The market had a generally firm appearance at the close of business. The following were the closing prices :—For cash—Three per Cents., 79f. 90c. ; Four and-a-Half per Cents., 103 f. 65c.

The Menelaus, lazaretto-ship for the Motherbank, was undocked this morning, after repairs, and the York, old 74, went into the vacated dock to be stripped of her copper, before being made a butt for the Excellent. - A serious accident occurred - this afternoon in this dockyard, on board the Conflict screw steam-sloop, to a seaman belonging to the Blenheim, named Charles Hider son, whose leg was broken by one of the gun-carriages falling on him. He was immediately conveyed to Haslar Hospital. The. Duke of Wellington 131 (screw), Capt. H. B. Martin, C.B.—This noble ship hauled out of dock this afternoon, at 5 p.m., into the steam-basin. It was somewhat feared they would not get sufficient water to float her off the blocks ; but everything was well man aged, and notwithstanding the enormous weight of her masts, spars, and rigging, with her iron tanks, cables, and anchors, and sundry other stores, she only drew 4 inches more than when she was docked, her water-line being now 20 feet 8 inches. She will stow 14 weeks' provisions and about 270 tons of water. She will now take on board her lower, fore, and main yards. PLYMOUTH, MARCH 28. Her Majesty's screw steam gun-vessel Rifleman, 8, Lieutenant-Commander R. H. Dalton, was spoken with, all well, at noon to-day, off the Start, by No. 6, Ply mouth pilot cutter. The Rifleman is 56 days from Rio Janeiro, is short of provisions, and was proceeding under steam and canvas for Portsmouth. Wind S.E . _ _ The Prince Regent, 90, the Sidon, 22, and the Leop ard, 16, from Portsmouth, arrived in the Sound this morning. The Rhadamanthus arrived from Woolwich on Sun day. The Hanoverian galliot Agneta Juliana, Captain W. Haan, from Seville for London, put in here this after noon with part of the passengers and seamen of the emi grant ship Duncan Ritchie, of Glasgow, Captain M'Kin non. This ship left Leith for Port Philip on the 19th of Atisreh, and has been leaking more or less ever since. On Good Friday, at 1 a.m., in lat. 49 23 N., long. 5 - 23 - W., heavy weather from the south-east, the leak in creased and 'could not be kept under, the pumps being choked. At daylight she spoke the galliot, and sent on board the captain's wife, all her passengers, and 13 of the crew. The next morning, Saturday, the weather abated, the leak decreased, and Captain M‘Kinnon dis patched his longboat, in charge of the mate, for the pas sengers and crew, stating his intention to bear up for the first pert. About 20 of the passengers returned, but the crew refused. After receiving stores from the ship, the galliot made sail. The Duncan Ritchie was at that time observed loosening her foretopsail, and the pumps still at work, her crew comprising only the master, chief offi cer, second mate, two carpenters, boatswain, one able seaman, the cook, and steward. The passengers landed here are Mr. Cameron, wife, and three children ; Mr. Smith, mother, and sister ; Mrs. Young and family of four, Mr. Henry Watson, and Mr. Alfred De Fivas-15 in all. The names of the sea men are William Mowatt, John Black, George Nicholl, Finlay Hamilton, Daniel Taylor, Neal M‘Mullen, and William Allen, able seamen ; James Smith and John Malcolm, ordinary ; John Livingstone and Robert Seaton, apprentices ; Alexander White, steward ; and Robert Eurisson, cook's mate-13 in all. They state that the Duncan Ritchie appeared to be preparing for prosecuting her voyage. SHEERNESS, MARCH 28. The Amphion, 34, screw steam-frigate.—Captain Charles G. E. Patey,•Lieutenant B. G. W. Nicolas, and Lieutenant Charles S. Dunbar, have returned from Ply mouth and Portsmouth, having been engaged in volun teering service at the above-named ports. The Amphion will be put out of the basin to-morrow. The Lizard, iron paddle-wheel steam-vessel, has been docked to make good some slight damage to sponson stays. The Wildfire, steam-tender to the Waterloo, remains at Gravesend looking out for deserters. WOOLWICH, MARCH 28. The Royal Albert, 131, screw steam-ship, is progressing rapidly towards being ready for launching, upwards of 200 men and boys being constantly employed upon her on task and jobwork, and they are so anxious to make full time that many of them do not go home to dinner. The frame-work of the stern is now all put up the entire length of the alterations, and the workmen are making ready the piles on which will be placed the ways over which she is to pass when launched. It is stated in naval circles that Capt. John Moore (d) (1848) will have the command of the Highflyer screw steam-sloop, in the room of Captain Henry J. Matson, deceased. Mr. John Dinnen, inspector of steam machinery afloat, visited the Tribune, 30, screw steam-frigate in dock at Woolwich, on Saturday last, to report the progress made in fitting her engines, by Maudslay, Sons, and Field, in order to state the actual value of work done, for the in formation of the Right Hon. Sir J.

Aqua se habla Espanol MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY. DR. SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, and Matricnlated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medic Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or fturctional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and s the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply rev , arded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and Ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, have Inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.

It appears that we gave the Admiralty yesterday inore credit than they deserve for their intention so to rein force Admiral Dundas's fleet as to make it mere nearly equal to that of the French. Instead of the Prince Regent, 90, Captain Hutton, Sidon, 22, steam-frigate, Captain Goldsmith, and Leopard, 16, Captain Gifford, having been ordered from Spithead to the Mediterranean, their instructions were merely to proceed to Devonport to await orders. We cannot account for this vacillation of their lord ships—or rather the Foreign-office. It is now well known, as stated in our second edition yesterday, that the French fleet of eight sail of the line (including, three screw ships) and steamers, whose armaments we under rated yesterday, sailed from Toulon, under the command in chief of Admiral La Susse (the officer who corn manded the Royal squadron on the visit of Louis Philippe to Portsmouth), with Rear-Admiral Jacquenot as second in command, on the 24th. This formid able fleet will probably communicate, perhaps anchor in the same roadstead with the English force. If so, what a shabby figure this country will cut along side the French. The British force, five sail of the line, one of them a 78-gun ship ; the French force, eight sail of the line, three of them three-deckers, and all the others second-class ships ; but with this great and almost incalculable superiority in favour of the French—namely that of the eight, three are screw-ships. Taking, there fore Captain Chads' estimate of the comparative effici ency of screw-ships and sailing-ships, we must regard the French force as equal to 11 sail, or double the force of Admiral Dundas's fleet. This state of things is dero gatory to England as the chief maritime power in the' world ; it is a reflection on our naval resources, which are ample ; it bespeaks an inferiority, which is not real ; it places us in a false position in the eyes of other powers. We have the means of appearing respectable in the Me diterranean, and yet our ships are kept hugging the coasts and ports of England, whilst from unwholesome activity we are daily losing more men by desertion than we are entering for general or, particular service. The French forces are in the Mediterranean, and there should also be at least an equal number of British men of-war, leaving at home at the ports ships quite suffi cient to form a powerful north sea fleet, should the weather or the state of affairs in the east threaten a cruise to "Yarmouth."—Herald. Rear-Admiral the Hon. M. F. F. Berkeley, C. 8., is spending the holidays at his country place at Fish bourne, Chichester. The Hon. W. Cowper, M.P., is at Albury-park, Guildford. Captain Milne, we are glad to hear, has just recovered from a severe attack of bilious fever. Captain W. A. B. Hamilton is still absent from Whitehall in consequence of the continuous presence of scarletina in his family. Rear-Admiral Corry hoists his flag on board the Queen, 116, Captain Michell, at Plymouth, which ship has been ordered to enter her full complement, 970. She has now only 400 on her books ; where the •ther 400 blue jackets are to be found is a difficult• question to solve. The following additional appointments have been made to this ship :---Lieutenants—W. B. Urmston (1848), C. Stirling (1851), son of Sir James Stirling, G. Taylor (1852.) Mates—R. Onslow, R. Chisholme, and H. Berkeley. Naval Cadets—R. Boyle and H. Herbert. Captain John Moore (1848), has been appointed to the commatd of the screw-corvette Highflyer, 21, at Ports mouth, vice Heathcote, promoted to the death vacancy of Captain Matson. Captain MoOre is the son of the late Admiral Sir Graham Moore and nephew of the cele brated hero of Corunna. We believe he is the youngest captain of his standing on the list. Commander Thomas Archer (1851) died on the 24th, in Derbyshire, aged 69. This officer was on the com manders' reserved half-pay list. Lieutenant Frederick Robinson (1844), first lieutenant of the Queen, 116, died at the R oya l N ava l Hospital, Plymouth. This officer had seen a great deal of service as a mate, and was one of the unrewarded lieutenants of Sir James Ross's Arctic Expedition. Dr. Edward Nolloth (1845) has been appointed to the Hercules, at Queenstown, vice Corry, in charge of the Isle of Skye emigrants. PORTSMOUTH, c.B .Marchp 28..,0ne Rear-Admiral M. F. F. Berkeley, of the Lords of the Admiralty, and Capt. Sir Baldwin Walker, K.C.B , &c., Surveyor of the Navy, arrived in this port to-day on a semi-official visit, the gallant Ad miral from his seat, near Chichester. They made an in spection of the dockyard, accompanied by Rear-Admiral Arthur Fanshawe, C. 8., Superintendent, and especially the ships building and refitting, -after which the visitors embarked in Rear-Admiral Fanshawe's barge, and visited the screw-frigate Highflyer, 21, Capt. Heath cote, and the Cruiser, 14, Commander the Hon. G. H. Douglas, both of which vessels got up steam this morn ing, and came into harbour. After inspecting these vessels, the gallant Admirals and Surveyor of the Navy landed and left the port by the tour o'clock South Coast train. The Megtera steam troop-frigate, Commander John ston, sailed front Spithead this morning for Barbadoes, with draughts of the 36th, 67th, and 69th Regiments.

It was the intention of the Government that it should have been kept secret until their arrival at Marseilles. On Tuesday, the 15th, the two confessors were brought to Leghorn, and immediately conducted on board a steam boat, where they remained 24 hours before they left for Marseilles. Only the English consul, Mr. Macbean, and the Rev. Mr. Sleeman were able to see and converse with them. The former had received the information through a note which Rosa found means to convey to him. Their friends at Florence were informed by another channel, but it was too late. They arrived at Leghorn on Wednesday, the 16th, three hours after the steamer had left. Rosa was tolerably well provided with clothing, which Miss S— had taken the precaution to place in the hands of the direc tor of the penitentiary at Lucca, at the beginning of the new year. But her husband was not permitted to take what had been left for him by Mr. C at the inn at Volterra. He was obliged to proceed to Leghorn in bad cotton clothing. He has arrived knocked-up with fatigue, and chilled with cold. The English consul sent him warmer clothing, and a cloak, on board the steam-boat. As he was very feeble, and almost always obliged to keep his bed, I much fear the effects of so sudden a change and such a painful journey. He had fever and delirium dur ing the night he passed on board the steamer in the port of Leghorn ; but, thanks be to God, he is at last free, and restored to the care of his excellent wife. The Lord will accomplish what remains, or rather He will do all, as He has hitherto done. Let us commit into his hands those He has just delivered,• that He may watch over them in the day of temptation, and preserve them from spiritual pride. The Madiais are about to encoun ter new trials more dangerous than what they have already undergone. May the Lord be with them by his holy spirit. They have hitherto been full of grati tude and. humility, but let us continue to pray for them, and for all who suffer for the same cause. The Madiais will probably remain in the south of France, or at Nice, until Francisco's health is re-established. They will then, if it please God, proceed to Geneva. For a long time they will much need retirement and repose, and I am quite sure that, notwithstanding the very natural desire our brethren will experience to see them, they will be careful not to compel them to exhibit themselves in public. Excuse the expression ; but you will doubt less understand me. The excellent Mr. C—, whose self-devotion is indefatigable, has embarked for Marseilles to rejoin those to whom he has already given so many proofs of brotherly affection, and, in order that he may himself superintend the necessary arrangements for their comfort. The English consul has besides given to them letters of introduction. This is nearly all lam able to tell you, and, indeed, it may be that, by the time you receive this letter, you may , know much more than we do on this interesting subject. ' THE OYSTER TRADE OF NEW YORIC.—It would hardly be credited that the yearly sales of oysters in this city ex ceed five millions of dollars, and that the number of per sons employed in the business, directly or indirectly, is about 50,000. It is a singular fact, that of the whole amount of oysters sold in our markets, about two thirds come from Virginia, which has a more extensive oyster trade than any other State in the Union. The residue is obtained from the waters of our own State, and those of New Jersey—the East river furnishing the largest supply. A considerable supply is pro cured from Shrewsbury and York Bay ; but very few of the latter are consumed in this city, as they are cultivated particularly for the western market. One:of the most interesting features in the business is the trans planting of oysters, or their removal from the "rock," or a natural bed to an artificial one. This process is of peculiar importance, and absolutely necessary to the successful prosecution of the trade. It would, in fact, be next to impossible to supply the market during the whole year, but for the general system of transplanting, which is pursued by all the dealers. More than a mil lion dollars' worth are removed every year to artificial beds, and by this means prevente d from s p awnin g , which renders them unfit for use. Thus a large proportion of our East river oysters were originally obtained from the North river, where the soil and water are not consi dered so favourable to their cultivation. Of the fifty thousand persons engaged in the business, the majority, of course, are dependent upon their own labour for sup , port ; but there are a considerable number of the dealers, or, as they might more properly be called, gy§ter mer chants, who possess large fortunes, amassed from - the sale of oysters alone. They are among the most worthy of our citizens, and New York is not a little indebted to their enterprise for her extensive business in what has now become an indispensable article of food.—New York .Herald. ITALY. The Messaggere of Modena publishes a decree of the Duke of Moderia, dated the 17th, in which, after alluding to the dangers arising from the reck less attempts of secret societies against legitimate sovereigns, it is enacted that all political offences, including insults to public functionaries and the military, wearing revolutionary cockades or other tokens, seditious songs or cries, &c., are to be sum marily judged by military commissions. The Augsburg Gazette contains a letter from Rome, which declares that the Pope has pro nounced in favour of the journal, the Univers, on the appeal of M. Veuillot, against the censure passed on it by the Archbishop of Paris. A letter from Rome of the 20th says :—" The Pope opened this morning at St. Peter's the series of ceremonies of the Holy Week. 'The congrega tion was extraordinarily great, and in it were several French officers and soldiers." The Finance Consulta of Rome held its last sitting on the 18th. It has reduced the deficit of 1,500,000 piastres (1,325,000 f.), by savings amount ing to about 720,000 piastres (3,996,000 f.), and has recommended the government to contract a debt of 800,000 crowns (4,440,000 f.) It has also au thorised it, in case of necessity, to cause one quarter of the land tax, estimated at 400,000 crowns, to he paid in advance. " His Holiness," says a letter, " declares openly that of all the institutions which the necessity of the times compelled him to try, the only one which had responded to his ideas and realised his hopes is the Consulta. The members of the Consulta are of opinion that when closely examined into, the financial situation does not warrant the excessive fears which have been raised respecting it, and which they for a time entertained. They are convinced that with order and good man agement the ordinary resources will suffice to esta blish the equilibrium. The Consulta has com plained that the salaries of the functibnaries, which in 1830 were 1,100,000 piastres (6,105,000 f.), rose to 1,300,000 (7,125,000 f.) in 1846, and at present amount to 2,100,000 crowns (11,655,000 f.)" A letter from Rome, in the Parlamento of Turin, states that, although the Papal Minister of Finance had fixed the Ist of January, 1851, for the collec tion of the new tax on trades and commerce, com plaints against it flowed in so numerously, that the Pope directed a new revision of the tariff, being the third since the original enactment. The defi nitive tariff is now published, and the tax is to be collected immediately with the arrears from Janu ary 1, 1851. The French court-martial at Rome has just con demned a woman, named Santa Manganelli, to five years' imprisonment in France, for attempting to kill three French soldiers. TURKEY. The Efamburgh News, under date of St. Peters burg 14th, says :--Prince Menschikoff, the Ambas sador Extraordinary to the Ottoman Porte, is the bearer of the most precise instructions enjoining him to insist that the firman published on the sub ject of the Holy Places, conformably to the trea ties entered into, and the promises made should be faithfully executed and not eluded, as they have hitherto been. Russia will, in case of need, support these demands. Much attention was some time since excited by the tour of inspection made by the Emperor, and particularly by that of the fleet at Sebastopol and the works of the fortifications. This journey is now explained. The reports of a con templated partition of Turkey appear to be void of foundation in the opinion of those who are ac quainted with the policy of Russia. Russia will, in the first place, know how to prevent such a partition as well as the union of the small Southern Sciavonian States into a powerful centralised Turkish Empire. The political object of Russia is the gradual development of this group of Sciavonian States, because, like the petty States of Germany, they are the most convenient neighbours, and pre sent the most apt form for the preservation of the influence and protectorate of Russia. Up to this time no one here thinks of any serious complica tions. The energetic attitude assumed by Prince Menschikoff at Constaniinople may have no other object than to see how far he may go as regards France and England. I can add, from a source worthy of credit, that Colonel Kowalesky and the Austrian Ambassador have formally declared to Omer Pacha, that if he had not evacuated Mon tenegro before the 14th, and crossed the frontier, Austria and Russia would interfere in arms." The 70,000 Russian troops concentrated in the vicinity of Moldavia and Walachia had orders to obey the first call of Prince Menschikoff, in the event of his mission to Constantinople requiring such a demonstration. The Cologne Gazette gives a letter from Berlin, which states that Prussia has resolved, in case that the Eastern Question should lead to serious compli cations, to remain altogether neutral. There is a current report that the differences be tween Turkey and Russia are to be referred to the arbitration of King Leopold, of Belgium. A con gress of the powers interested is proposed, and Brusseli is named as the place of conference. The Belgian Ministers have had several meetings on the subject. The A grain Gazette states, from Montenegro, that on the 28th ult., the W4vode George Petro witsch ordered all the troops of Montenegro to re turn to their homes, except a few to guard eight different points of the territory. The losses suf fered by the inhabitants of Limniani, Montinie, and Povie, are to be made • good to them. The orphans of the warriors that have fallen are to be assisted by the State, and a commandant , named Pero, ill duri ng th e b attle of Limn i an i. of Bielica, is to be tried for having behaved SWITZERLAND. A. liter from Berne of the 26th states that the Canton of Ticino is tranquil, but that as a measure of precaution the troop s at Luvino have been rein forced. The Governments of Zurich and the Vaud have declined to comply with the invitation of the Council of State of Geneva to convoke the Federal Diet. They say they have confidence in the Federal Council for the termination of all existing differences. SPAIN.
