But will a diszolu ti;n in June set matters right ? Th Lt depends on the reception which Mr. Gl*dstone's name meets with in the country. It i 3 a keen perception of these difficulti ,, s which leads L ird John Russell to predict :with confidence that the Premiership will be his before Milsuminer. In his view the failure of a Conservative Cabinet is certain ; and then he considers that his turn must clime,- and that the country must accept him as its dictator, simply because no other course is open to jr. This is he anticipation of a v , ry self-confiden ' man. Others, and more judicious rea3oners, avow their conviction that Lord John Russell's chance of soccesi is far smaller than Lord D,rby's or even than Lord Aberd e ,'s (however prepo .terous ih • last thought mty appe tr). They tell us th it Lord John's populirty with the Wlii,s th ms,-lvfs is nearly gone, and ihit at Br okes's he is s . arcAr t ylerated. Trey hold it to be impossible for him to gather round him a decent Cabinet. On the whole, the advent of a Conservative Min'stry seems very near. The chief difficulty seems to be to quiet the apprehensions of sect ral in Parliament, and of m iny persons out of Parlia meat, who dread, more than almost any othat thin', fie in reduction of Trac - ai ian influence into the high Ilaees of tire laud.

Tie country is not a ficqbn. The c-;untry bas no fac t ons ends to serve. The country is not in quest of place. Fac ion has for the moment tiiump'!;e i in the House of Commons. Place-huuters have, as they imagine, made a great advance t) the attainment of their object. Mr. Disr tell and Mr. Gladstone are specula ing with gre.l confidence on their early acquisition of the reins of power. It were well if they were somewhat less sanguine. " The•e's many a siip between the cup and the lip." So s Lys the proverb, and every daYs observation verifies its truth. The coun . ry will never submit !o see L Palmerston male the victim of the most disgraceful corn hi nation re con lel in the annals of this or of amy other country. Only reflect for a mom on the fact, that the names of the heads of each Of the five hostile parties into which the house of Commons is divided, will be found in the list of those who vot?d against Ministers. Mr. Disra'li, as the L-a'ler of the Conservative s ; Mr. Glaiston-, as the head of the Peelites ; Lord John Ressell, as the chief of t' e Whigs ; r. Cobden, as tie re presentative of the Manchester t-chool ; and Mr. Roebuck, as the le tder of those very independent handful of Liberals in the house, who manifesr their iudipendtme3 by always voting again , t any Governm-nt which chances to be in power—all, all grweths list of Lori Palmerston's foe'. There is something ahsolu ely odious in a combi nation like this. The country will tUrn away trim it with loarhing, We repeat whit we have said from the first, that the bombardment of Canton wag, under all the circuins'ances, a barbarous act ; and, therefore, th:t Lord Palmerston committed a great error in policy, as well as iu justice, in adopting and making his own everything which Admiral Seymoir and Sir John Bowring thought proper to do. But that oily showed au excess agenerogity on the parr of the Premier.

As the immediate consequence of the defeat of the Ministry on Tuesday night, a Cabinet Council was hell ye,terday. As a on as the Council had broken up Viscount Palmer ton left, town for Windsor Castle, whence his lordship will return io-day. It is impossible 'o suppose that a Minister of the energy, the ability, and the popularety of the Noble Lord, supported, as he is, by a large majority of the Upper House of Plrliainent, can submit to the dictation of so fictions and unprincipled a coalition as that which obtained an unfair triumph on the question of the hostilities in China. We feel therefore convinced that resignation is not the point upon which Lord Palmerston has taken the Royal pleasure. Of course, it is impossible to say, till the wishes of her Majesty have been ascertained, what is the precise course to be pursued ; but we own that we see 110 resource in the present emergency except an appeal to the country. It is not difficult to anticipate the result of such an appeal. The love of fair play inherent in ihe English character—the gratitude for a great struggle successfully maintained, an d c rowned with an honourable peat,.)—fora large and unexpected dirninuti nof the public burdens —for the interests of E iglin , l promoted and her reputation vin - licate I —for the alliances which have 'eonsolilated the tranquillity of Europe, and combined the two great nations of the West in the cause of civilisation and liberty—for a home policy, reformatory and pro gressive, an]. a foreign policy, glorious because thoroughly English—cannot fail to find an echo in the right feeling and honest action of the consti tuency of the country. It seems a singular and most unaccountable fa tal.ty that it is at the very moment when a satis factory treaty of Peace is signed with Persia by the Government of Viscount Palmerston—thus prov ing the desire of the Cabinet to put an end t 1 a e it v ir e o iy a; t th h e in v g e l r i y lce m w om ar e and d w c h o e n n t e thest i n the East—that Neuchatel affair a more promising aspect—that it is lom at the very mo. _,.. much-slandered meut when the family of the d n e e r y e . d G super ene victims t i ( m M s r .amCohnigsho:hlms British t. s i t s e h y ) a , re intendent of Hong Kona, numerousoft the is la ra. and other from a wholesale system . of POloning resorted suffering to by the perfidious that the Rouse of _a and treacherous Chinese — that C ommons, by a discreditable combination of three art' Is'facetiously de termined—let the two hundred gentlemen disguise 't Government.

Spirit of the Public Jo:rnaL• (From the Times.) Had it been possible to make an immediate appeal to the country on the result of the Division yesterday morning her Majesty s Ministers would only have met in Cabinet to resolve on a course so evidently to their advantage. 'They would not have given an hour's opportunity to the political sections who have just made the discovery that union is force. As we haire it on the authority of one of their chiefs that "England does not love Coalition," the sooner Engler' I is invited to express her feeling on the charac' er of the present extraor dinary specimen the better. A dissolution is not, fioweve-, possible at this moment. Parliament could not reassemble before the expiry of the Mu tiny Act in April, and her Majesty would then be left without money and' men for the service sand defence of the State. To day, therefore, the Pre mier will propose such temporary arrangements as will allow time for au appell to the cen it tuencies. A Three Months' Mutiny Act, Mete id of the usual one for a year, and the necessary votes for t he same period, would answer this •purpoze, and unless the three branches of the Coalition wish to adi to the existing difficulties they will throw no obstecle in the way. No doubt there are people who look on such an interval as a sort of Saturnalia, when, like shipwrecked sailors rushing to Vie liquor, they may indulge in any proceedings, however factious and 'futile. It is not on behalf of the Government that we deprecate any course of simple annoyance. Toe new Coalition has a charact jo make, and it will not do that by throwing everyteing into confusion, es well at home as abroade s s—We believe that Go vernment has no other wish than to to.l, - the opi nion of the country on the' question raised by its opoonents, and so far carry out their wishes. It will, on its side, abstain from all new measures. only going on with those on which Parliament has fully declared itself. The remission of the " War Niuepence," and, we pre-ume, too, the other parts of the new Budget, will be proceeded with ; and if the House of Com mons, under its new inspiration, should think fit to recede from its present decision on these points, it will have the opportunity of doing so. Under these arrangements it is evident that a dissolution may be expected in the course of the present month, and a new Parliament in May. The constitutional ceremony we are about to go through is, 'in fact, a trial of her Majesty's advisers at the bar of the people. The House of Commons does but perform the part of a Grand Jury, and, as it has not thrown out the bill of indictment pre ferred by the triple accuser, that bill goes at once to the jury of the mica'. When that nation, how ever, hears of the task which devolves upon it, we are incliued to think it will be rather at a loss to know the precise question to be answere I. Whit is the offence ? What is the substance of the solemn interrogatory, " Guilty or not guilty ?" put to the Government now at the bar of public opinion ? The question is an extraordinary one, and we doubt if the like was ever put to the British people before. It is simply this—Has Lord Palmerston 's Cabinet forfeited the confidence of the people, on account of a series of ac' a committed on the other side of the world six weeks before they were here even heard of, and by public servants appointed under a former Administration ? The present Cabinet neither ap pointed the men nor advissd the measures, nor had anything whatever to do with them. At Christ mae, when all the world was in the country, Mi nisters went down among the rest, and there read in the papers, some hours later 'than the London, and Birmingham, and Manchester world, that an unfor tunate dispute had broken out at Canton. The tzreater part of the proceedings that have occupied the attention of Parliament during the last ten days had occurred several weeks before the least inkling of them could come to this country ; and, from first to last, including the firing of a river side suburb of Canton to prevent its being a per petual ambuscade, everything took place long before the arrival in China of a despatch from the Government at home. In fact, had the scene of the narrative been the Moon, or had it been a chanter from the "Arabian Nights," the present Cabinet could not have had less to do with it. It did not even appoint the men, for they were be quests from a former Cabinet, and stand upon their own merits, in which they can well hear all the scrutiny tlp)publi3 choose to require. Here, then, Ls the quet•Liou which. {,lie people f Roglavid are called on to answer Lord Peitnerston's Ad ministration to be condemned and displaced for what it never did and could not do ;—for what it only he ird of when everybody el-e heard of it ; for what was done by men whom it did not appoint, and with whom it has not yet been able to hold any communication ? We have only heard of one question at all like it, though hardly se foolish a one, and it was put by certain persons who made a great pretence of religion and justice—" Did this man sin, or his father, that he was born blind." Of course, it will be said that as Government accepts the issue, declining to agree in the condem nation of these proceedings and the consequent sur render of their authors, rt is responsible for them. Strictly and constitutionally Government is respon sible for everything that is done by its servants, even if it be in fact wholly b e yond its control, or even its knowledge. They, however, who have carried this doctrine to the theoretical perfection exhibited by yesterday's vote must have borrowed a hint from the system of that Celest'al Empire which they have taken under t heir p atrona g e. We read in Mr. Meadows's work :—" Ono of the principal defects of the polity of the Chinese Empire is the existence and oper ation of numer ous provisions in the code entitled Code of the Board of Civil Office for the Punishment of the Mandarins,' whereby the m andarins are made responsible for a vast num ber of thin g s over which they cannot possibly exercise any control, and in which punishments, more or less severe, are laid down for them in the case of failure." , But we must net travel out of the vets , case before us for a parallel, only not quite so un reasonable as the new English practice. One of •Yeh's pretences for seizing the crew of the Arrow rulers at a was that there was an old man on board whose son w as a pirate, and, as the son could not be caught, the old man's head was wantedinstead of his son's. Certainly a father may in some sense be held ac countable for a son. But acco r ding to the Code of our i Cabinetis to be leld th responsible I p lo p ill oi e nt a mento of its prede cessors, and for the acts o f th e o ffi cers s o appointed. This is to hold the son accountable for the father, tenl fir r over whom he can have no control. It is true that Government does refuse to remove or censure the alleged otlendere, and does accept their acts. We too, we believe, should have done the same in their case. We are persuaded there was no other alter native, and when the whole story is before the world England will think so teo. We shill not at present drag our rea iers over the ground they have so often traversed during the last week. We may say that, assailed with deliberate outrage by one of the greatest miscreants over heard of, threatened with more, denied reparation or, what was more important, any guarantee for the future, in the very presence of da ly atrocities, and with a fana'ic population, ever ready to rise up against them, her Majesty's servants in this trying situation acted according to their discretion for the honour of the British flag, the observance of treaties, the interests of their country, and the cause of civilisation. No doubt, beset with horrors, and latterly assailed with poison, assassination, and every form of villaey, they bad a trying time of it. Yet they did their duty to the best, of their knowledge, and we shall require butter and less factious arguments to convince us that they were wrong. It is, then, for not joining in the censure and abandonment of these men that the British people are invited to expel the Government which, among other ser vices, has brought the war with Russia and now that with Persia to an honourable termination, and, with the exception of China--and must we add Naples I—has not a single quarrel with any other Government in the world. h o f e fl nnerae: l a snti feelings of the (From the Daily News.) The debit° and vote on Mr. Cobden's motion cannot fail to elevate the reputation of England and her free institutions in the estimation of the world. The discussion and its result prove that the moral sense of the representative branch of our Legisla ture is pure and healthy—that in judging of inter national relations it has not one measure for our selves and another for other peoples. It is as ready to condemn and denounce English abuse of supe rior strength as Russian. Some puny attempts have been made to dispa rage the character of the House of Commons' vote on th e China question, by representing it as the combination.and party, ob j e ets We m d a o y n 4) o c t . g o l gu e ss d in the minds of the ae pirations. It is obvious that r dbca e aael s snta u jeyro l rgn i teia o lwipa f tiytr a tohpph m ahoir e rt r clye e i party, and a large proportion of the minority to another. It may freely be admitted that the elo msjority belong to one quence of Conservative leaders may at times have been rendered more eauAtio and overwhelming by the consciousness that they were riva4 for political power who were subjected to its seatning influmce. And Ad ies not admit of denial that many an un willing vote was given in the minority from reluct ance t) breakthrough all par ty asso3iat ion s or aban don old friends in the dilemma in which they hal involved themselves. • Man will be man, and human weakness w:11 mingle with his most g'nerous emo tions. But we fearlessly ass rt that he general, the pervading, motive of the majority arfaytd 0 de nounce the bombardment of C.n.on was a h;gh minded determination 0 effac) from the scutche of England th 3 blood-rust left on its surface by that lawless courage. What other motives could induce Sir Francis Baring and Lord Ro' e:t Grosvenor— men remarkable for steady, quiet, uno-tentatious adherence to their hereditary politics—to wrench themselves loose from - the habits and associations of their whole lives ? What else could induce a man so suscepiib!e of family affection as Lord John Russell 0 separate himself for the time fforn his whole kith and kin? What personal advantage can such men possibly promise themselves from the course they have pursued ? Common &ease tells us that the low ant unworthy designs imputed to them, and to the other Liberals who voted with their, are the unseemly birth of the foul imagina tions of m Tcenary drudges of fact:on, who can only see tile reflection of their own vileness when they try to look into the purest souls. The hearts of mee ara inscrutable. - No man' can say what the inmost thoughts are of the speaker who may be giving utterance to the loftiest senti ments. But men can tell whether the sentiments expressed are just or unjust. - - And it is impossible to read the five nights' debits wAhlut being im pressed with the moral superiority of the views and sentiments expressed by those who arrai„&"iced Vie proceedings in the Canton river, over those which fell from the lips of the apologists of those proceed iugs. Even though we were to take . he most humiliating view of the case, and regard bolt par ties as mere actors, we should be compelled to ad mit that the speakers on .the sideof the majority evinced a more correct est:ma'e of what ought to be the language of virtue and justice—that they said the truth whether they themselves believed it or not. But it is impossible to follow the deb ate through all its windings and turnings, and adhere to this painfully low estimate of those who took part in it. There is on tine part of the majerity a frank and tarle s grappling with the question at issue, a determination to place it before their auditors in alt - its details and ramifica tions,- that bespeaks cenfid3nce in the justice of their cause. And there is on the other side a constant endeavour to gloss over facts, to escape from the issue really submitted to tham, and to diverge into irrelevant discussions, that betrays an uneasy consciousness of being in the wrong. The temporary alliance of the discordant elements of the majority is hououralde to all. They were brou2ht together by an irresistible impulse to vin dicate the fair fame of England, by r.,pudiating in her name the buccaneering operations in the Canton river. None of them will ever need to blush for having thus frankly and-, unites tatingly acted upon the maxim—"Fais quo devra, vient que pourra." The people of England will ratify their verdict. Whoever holds the reins of government must shape his course in the East - in conformity to the recorded declaration-of the House of Comm° O. All that DOW remains for the friends of justice and huma nity is, to keep watch lest the vote of Wednesday morning should ba allowed to become a dead letter. (From the Morning Herald ) We cannot, of course, pretend to any very pecu liar or official information in re'erenee.to pending events ; but we think, from what we have heard— and events find currency—that Lord Palmerston's viz-it to Windsor yesterday will produce the result th.it before twenty-four hours have elapi,d, an offi cial announcement will be made, either orally or in Gazette print, that the present Premier will ap peal to the country for its approbation (1) of his conduct. The ability of Lord Palmerston no one can deny. Its‘misdirecton we must regret. Tue country will, we believe, in a very few days-1 we ate lighty informed, have to deal with all the great facts which have recently agitated it, and which will agitate for years 'this great empire, unless seitled by the settlement of a Conservative Administration in power, placed there by the opinion - of the people —'he dominion of right, and plo aged to principles We have no fear of Lord Derby I As no public announcement was yester lay made, either in Parliament or out of it, of the intent.ons of the Cabinet ; and as it would i.e idle for us to pretend to penetrate the s-3cre . s of the party to which we are opposed, we shall not aftempt to pre dict or to aisert anything ; but shall me:ely point out certain necesitit , s of the else, which seem t lend to almost inevitable clnclusion4. First, then, we incline to the opinion that the Palmerston Administ iaton is at an-en I. We doubt the possibility of an immediate diszoluti, n, with all the financial busiueAs of the county untouched, with no one tax adjusted or re-adjusted, and with all the estimates waiting for d'scussion. We repea . . that to disband Parliament for ti•e whole of Much and half of April, wi' h affairs in this plight, seem; to us nearly impossible. Nor is it likely, on the other hand, that the members would coesent to go on with the ordinary busine-s of a sb , sion will a condemned Government and with a dissolution in June impending over the house of Commons. Teis assembly has a right to say to the Ministry, " Either bow before our censure and retire, or else, if you appeal to the country, make that appeal at once." In this position of affairs our expectation is, that Lold Palmerston will bend to his inevitable fate, and will to-day announce that his resignation is in the hands of her Majesty. Should-this prove to be the case, the history of this crisis an 't the way in which it has been pro duced, will ba one of the most remarkable in the British annals. The blow has been struck by a man who, for two years past, has been he'd in something like c at tempt. Mr. Cobden, for a considerable perio I, has bean held to be effe'e and " gone by ;" and Punch has levelled more j,kes and caricatures at him than even at Mr. Disraeli himself. Yet has this disregarded and scorned man found streng:h enough to overthrow " the great, War Ministe-. Look, too, at the names of some of th it m which has ovet thrown a "Liberal Ministry." Here are a few of the culprits : !rhos. Alcock. Lord Goderich. Sir F. Baring. Lord R. Grosvenor. J. Bell. 14-rd J. Russell. T. A. Bellew. Hon. P. L. King. G. Bowyer. Sir J. Paxt :n. J. Crock. A.

Grosvenor the Whig. Now, in Tuesday night's division, Lord Bl:indfoid voted in favour of Lord Palmerston, and Lord R. Gros venor against him l a c n h d ess lo b o o k a r f d o . rward Should Lord Palmerston shrink f, om the fearf ext moveslet usoqnuth e i to However,thenquit h p e o I p i a t iscta, siruggle which an attempt to retain his seat would bring on, and should he this afternoon announce his retirement, the next important question would be—To whom wou ld her Majesty turn for counsel and assistance in this difficult crisis? We, as Conservatives, naturally rega-d the pre ference as almost belonging to Lord Derby, on the obvious ground, that no other individual has so numerous a body of attached ft iend- and supporters in both Houses of Parliament. The universal ex pectation would be, that the first summons from Windsor would be sent to St. James's-square. Bu , , let this difficult duty be impos,d on whom soever it may—Lord Derby, Lord Aberdeen, or Lord J. Russell—that individual will immediately find troubles and difficulties spring up on every side. The Conservative array is too weak without the aid of Mr. Gladstone and his friends ; yet their alliance, while it brings great strength in some respects, brings some weakness a'so. Twenty-one Conservatives vote I with the Govern ment on Tuesday night ; and if asked the reason why they did so, nearly every one of them would have replied, "Because we do not want to bring Mr. Gladstone into power." We may be told that it would be wiser and more patriotic to keep silence on these delicate points. But our conviction is that the truest patriotism is shown by a frank, but respectful, avowal of differ ences and difficulties.

It is very valuable as a distinct re cognition of the port agents of the bondholders in Mexico as collectors and receivers of the revenues assigned for the payment of interest on the debt, and is likely to re sult in greater security for the future. But, though the nee; decree came into force on the day of its publication, it wdl practically remain inoperative for some time yet as regards an increase of remittances, because the Mexican Geverfiment has encumbered the revenues from the Cos terns by orders and anticipations to the amount of some $2,000,000. :" There was a rumour that the Mexican Government would receive from that of the United States a pecu n,ary supply of from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000, which the public connected with some alleged arrangement about. the Tehuantepec route. • " The packet brings no remittance for the dividend fund, but $B,OOO have been pent by the agents at Mazat lan by her Majesty's ship Trincomalee to Panama. " San Luis de Potosi bad been evacuated by the insur gente, but Tampico continued to refuse admission to the governor appointed by Government, and the Spanish Legation had left Mexico in consequence of the a,llegeri inactivity of the Government in bringing to justice the murderers of the Spaniards near Cueruavaca. LARGE FIGURES OF SPERM-Mr. Cobden fixes the popula:ioe of China at 300,000,000. The Duke of Argyll said on the same evening that it was 200,000,000. Here is the difference of only 100,000,000! A hundred million souls (if the Chinese are allowed to have souls), are cer tainly not much in taking the census of a country. Now, we propse that the two gentlemen be sent out on a mis sion to ascertain what the precise population of China is, and not be allowed to return home until they have satis factorily set , led the difference between them. In the meantime Mr. Rowland Hill can occupy the Duke of Argyll's place, and, as for Mr. Cobden, it will be no great loss to the nation if his place is not filled up just at present.—Punch. FACTION FIGUTS IN PARLIAMENT. —La Verite (Paris paper), after referring to the recent debate on China, makes the following pointed comments :—" This slight glance at the intrigues of English members of Parliament and the political conduct of Lord John Russell can only inspire us with one thought —namely, that it is with the Parliament of England as it was formerly with the French Chambers, where the affairs of the country, the most important interests of the community, were rele gated to the second rank, in order to give place to the play of personal vanity and ambition. The coalition of parties in the House of Commons forces one of its prin c.pal members, and doubtless many others with him, to vote sometimes in one way and sometimes in another, ac cording to the exigencies of personal interest, and not with regard to the interests of the State. Who will be Minister after Lord Palmerston The Whigs or the Tories, or else one of those thousand shades which at this moment compose the infinitely divided opinions of the . English Parliament ? Such is the question in agitation, and the serious questions on which the debate hinges will be resolved accord ing to the chances of such or such a candidate for office, and not according to a true and right regard for the in terests of the country, and in conformity with the eternal laws, of justice and political morality. This Is a sad . spectacle; this is, indeed, the dark side of the Parlia mentary system of government--speechifying preferred to business, and the country sacrificed to petty personal ambition. Such is the mural to be deduced from the debates in Parliament, and we really think we have reason to congratulate ourselves that we have not to suffer the same inconvenience in France." %_._- / 1 this be determined by the Governmel, ; ' it lAp - ME fears whatever for the ultimate r loag felt and thought, in common[ w .

A HARBOUR OF REFUGE - ON THE NORM-BAB 'AST. The fearful loss of life and property in the li , rth Sea during Vie January pies hts attracted ago Kt. d al of nt! - .entiun 'n the mer commimit es To the imp ri ive neces,ity of formin4 a h - trb.iur of refuge s,.mew.iere on f.e north-east seabo ird - tweel Yarmout) road-; and the Tyne.

Reelear, Harde r..., 1-bay, and northward of tie Tyne, Newbiggen bay, have bean sugge-t?.l 1:4 eligible - sites. Mr. Murray, tit , r of the Sandi cis, has mapiffeet,' scheme to forma harbour of 600 ae-es in Acnd_in-bly, by the gide of th 3 of - -etu track from Loo on to th- c al ports ; and the River Tyue Improvement Conim'ss osiers al-o urge that they should have aid from the Treasury to cx end the pier-works now in course of formation, s . as to in tke the noble estuary of the Tyne a har bour of refuge in gales of w;nd. Mr. James Mather, ono of the River Tyne Improvement Oommissilners, a lduces the folio ring facts in a Peftion he Las presented tl the House of I.,? , rds in proof that such a place of shelter should be made by the Govirummt. He says a harbour of refuge on the n rah-east coast of Euglaud would sa,v3 an nually from destruction a large number of h seamen and a great amount of shipping property. Tirat out of 1,141 wrecks and casualties (according to the "Admiral Wreck Register" for 1856) 576, or upwards of one-half, took place upon the cast coast. And on this coast for '260 miles, from Yar m iuth Roa is to the Frill of Forth, tht-re is no harbour if refuge for vessels canglit in galas f om the eastward. That in the year 1852, wi hin a radius •of 70 miles of the river Tyne, a'iout one fou, th of the wrecks of the kingdola oocurred; mud that in a single easterly ga'e in Oct , ber if that year, within 20 nautical wilds of the Tyn', 69 lives were sacrifice,i in a few hours. That in the begin ning of January, 1854, by anotier easterly gale, 110 wrecks occurred in rhte3 days withln the same radius, which upwards of a .quart-,r .of a mil 1-on sterli , ,g of British shipping and other pro per'y was destroyed and a large number of Briti-h s, , amen was sacrificed ; and at the month of the sr - awe river, which was sought by a liirge fleet for whet -r during the gale, 36 wrecks occurred, one fourth of which only belo,g-id to the port. The crews of the wrecked vessels, with the exception of one, were, hove r, ali ga hrntiy raved by the life -13-at. Tnw. in OH terrible gale fi o n the north-east, upon the sth ofJaouary in th-3 preseht year, within a rad.us of si) mils from the Tyue, and in the same bay, 94 went on shore or foundered, by which iu a few hoar; 167 lives were miserably destroyed and a ia.ge amount of property was eutirely lost. Tnat wit in 20 nAutical miles of the river Tyne, where these terrible diQa ers are crowded so fatally t. , g,-ther, a great am.mit of a ipping is perpetually Oil tle c . ):::sf, triding to and fi,in the three north• eastern rives, tie Tyn-, the Wear, and the Tees, wi. h their ri hutarit s.

Th e plan co nsists in applying the acetum cantharidis , or an y . vesicating fluid, by means of a camel hair brush to the apex of each spot or pustule of the disease, on all the exposed surfaces of the_ body, until blistering is evi denced by the whiteness of the skin in the parts sub. jec'ed . to the application, when the fluid producing it Is to be washed off with water or thin arrowroot gruel. The pain attending the application of the visicating fluid i very slight and transient.
