This Company is established with a view to afford the pub lic increased facilities in the conveyance of mails, passengers, specie, and merchandise between England, via Harwich, and the ports of Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp, &c. A traffic arrangement for a term of years has been entered Into with the Eastern Counties Railway Company on advan tageous terms, and the Directors have secured the co-opera tion of the authorities of the Dutch-Rhenish Railway Corn• pally, and the other inland navigation and railway establish ments in Holland and Germany, all of whom aro so convinced of the advantages to be derived from this line of communica tion, as the most desirable for passenger traffic, and the speedy conveyance of merchandise and perishable goods, that they are anxious to promote the views of this Company to the fullest possible extent. The town of Harwich is 68 miles from London by railway, and its port is the most convenient for direct communication between London and all the great seaports in Holland and Belgium, and thence to the northern and central parts of the continent of Europe. Passengers proceeding to India via Trieste, by Harwich, Rotterdam, and the Dutah-Rhenish Railway, will effect a saving of 48 hdurs, as compared with the route via Marseilles; the line from Rotterdam to Trieste being on the eve of com. pletion without a break. The harbour of Harwich is safe, commodious, and easy of access in all weathers and states of the tide—advantages which no other port possesses on the eastern coast south of the Humber. By the opening of this route via Harwich the dangers and delays of the intricate navigation of the Swin and the mouth of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time is effected to Hamburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10 to 11 hours ; whilst the route to Oberhausen and thence to the northern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by Harwich and Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as per tabular statement, and thus the former must become the direct route of postal communication.

The most important incident which marked the racing at Nottingham yesterday was the triumph of Mr. G. Mather's c , lours. When St. Clair, admirably ridden by Fordham, was landed just past the post, the, injunction to "shout lads " was not disregarded, for " George" gave the fielders a good turn. Fordham seems to retain his old luck, for he was twice successful, having ridden Apathy and St. Clair. The hon Ours of tke day were, however, shared with him by young Grimmer— a ♦ery promising light weight. Early Bird com pounded after going a mile, and was evidently out of his distance. The fondness of his friends was undimi nished to the close, for at starting he was backed at 7 to 4. Altogether the "fielders" did not hove a bad time of it, for only two out of the five races were won by favourites. Turfites will quit Nottingham to-night, in order to assist at the meeting at Derby to-morrow. Six events are appointed for decision, in addition to two Hurdle Races and a Steeplechase. The elements of excitement are not therefore likely to be wanting. Greenwich Fair, who gave another proof of her won drous turn of speed yesterday will doubtless carry off the Scarsdale Stakes. Indeed I should not be surprised were she to go to the post unopposed. With a start I shall " stand " Huntington for the Harrington Plate. I know little of the steeplechasers, but taking recent ranning as a guide I should be inclined to select Tcbernaya to win " The Midland." Weather cook and Nicholas may " fight their battle o'er again" in the Hurdle Race. Feb. 25. [PRICE 4D.

The following private bills were read a second time, and ordered to be committed :—Clyde Navigation ; East Suffolk Railway ; Mid Kent Railway (Croydon Exten sion); British and Irish Grand Junction Railway. THE DESTITUTE IRISH POOR. Mr. BAGWELL asked the Chief Secretary for Ire land whether he could afford any information upon the subject of a pauper woman of the name of Nugent, who, after residing fifteen years in London, was removed to Ireland by the parish authorities ; also, to know if it was the intention of the Government to introduce any measure for Reformatory Schools in Ireland. Mr. HO RSMAN said that be was not in a condition to express an opinion as to the legality of the removal. If the woman had resided for five years in one parish she was irremovable, but if she bad not done so, Clon mel being her birth-place, she was removable in law. He would call the attention of the poor-law board to the subject. It was not the intention of the Government to introduce any measure this session for the establishment of reformatory schools for Ireland, but to wait and see the working of such establishments i❑ England. SEA. COAST FISHERIES BILL. Mr. M'MAIION moved the second reading of this bill. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND objected to its second reading, because this bill, if passed, would leave the Irish fisheries unprotected, and said be would, therefore, move its rejection. The learned gentleman referred to the bills introduced by the hon. member in reference to this subject in 1852, 1853, and 1855, and to his motion for a committee in the last session, all of which bills were rejected by the house, and on the motion for the committee he was counted out. (Hear.) This bill proposed to interfere with the authority of the Board of Commissioners, whose 'regulations had worked bene ficially for the increase of the trade, in a manner that he could not yield his assent. He con demned the manner in which the learned gentleman had dealt with this subject, each of his bills differing from one another, and he added that he should have no objec tion to a consolidation of the Irish '.fishery laws, that had, as a whole, worked well. Col. DUNNE objected to this bill. The acts in force had considerably improved the fisheries. The great evil was that fish was taken that ought not to be, and in an improper manner, in the estuaries. Mr. kennedy, Mr. Bowyer, and Captain Scobell sup ported the second reading. Mr. Napier, Mr. Grogan, Mr. G. Butt, Mr. Meagher, Lord Naas, and Mr. Bellew opposed the second reading. Mr. M`MAIION replied, contending that the bill bad not been discussed on its merits. So long as he had a seat in that house he would never consent to the Irish fishermen being deprived of their freedom to fish the Irish seas without paying rent, or being subject to cer tain fines. After some further discussion, in which Mr. M'Evor and Mr. OTLAIIMITY took part, The house divided, when the numbers were— For the second reading lO Against it Majority ----175 The bill was accordingly lost. JUDGEMENTS EXECUTION, &c., BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and the consideration of the first clause was resumed. Mr. M'MAHON withdrew his amendment relative to the introduction of the various courts of record. Col. DUNNE complained of the number of amend ments proposed to be made in the bill, which rendered it almost unintelligible. Mr. CRAUFURD then proposed the introduction of the Courts of Common Pleas of Lancaster and Durham as Courts of Record into the bill, which was agreed to. Mr. CRAUFURD explained the effect of the numer ous amendments on the bill, and asked the committee to proceed with the bill, when he would have it re printed and brought up with the report. Mr. Hughes, Mr. G. Butt, the Attorney-General for Ireland, Mr. Cranford, Mr. Napier, Mr. Clive, Mr. Al:Mahon, Mr. S. Warren, Sir E. Perry, Mr. Dunlop, and Mr. Whiteside addressed the house on the nature of the amendment of the Attorney-General for Ireland, which was of a legalcharacter, whether judgment should be enforced on a memorial of it or on a copy. The committee then divided, when the numbers were— For the amendment 99 Against it Majority The house thee resumed, 77 -2i Mr. CRAUFURDfrxpressing an opinion that he should consider whether he would proceed with the bill, the amendment having destroyed its principle. COURT OF CHANCERY (IRELAND) (TITLES OP PURCHASER) BILL, AND COURT OF CHANCERY (IRELAND) BILL. The second reading of these bills was adjourned till Tuesday. SAVINGS BANKS. Mr. FITZROY brought up the report, which was agreed to. COMMONS INCLOSURE BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY (IRELANDI BILL The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND ob tained leave to bring in a bill to consolidate and amend the laws relating to bankruptcy and insolvency in Ire land. _ - _ _ . _ The house"adjourned at 25 minutes to 6 o'clock.

The division of Monday evening exhibits a House of Commons in "a state of great confusion," to use the expressive language of the Pres,' of Saturday la,t. It is added, "The majority on the Ministerial side is break ing up." This may be true, but then there is no greater solidity observable in the phalanx on the opposite benches. Thirty-one Conservatives voted with Ministers. Th• following is the list : W. Beckett. R. Knightley. T. Blakemore. G. C. Legh. Marquis of Blsndford. Lord G. Manners. T. W. Bramston. J. Masterman. Lord H. Cholmondeley. C. A. Moody. C. R. Colville. J. J. Richardson. Sir C. Coots. W. Masters Smith. 1). A. S. Davies. Colonel Smyth. W. Deedes. R. Spooner. W. Denison. W. Stuart. Sir J. B. East. J. M. Sutton. T. H. Estconrt. Geo. Toinline. Thos. Greene. J. Tollemache. '4 c G. C. Rarcow:t. f . iir J. Tyrell. N. Kendall. W. Wyndham. J. K. King. The appearance of the Dames of Lord Blandford. Lord H. Cholmondeley, Mr. Spooner, Mr. Moody, and Mr. Tollemache in a Ministerial majority is a token of the strength which Lord Palmerston has gained by his late Church appointments. If we had a list of the absentees we should find more proofs of the same feeling. But now for the other side of the story. Besides the 171 Conservatives who voted for Mr. Di , ‘raeli's motion, there were found in the same lobby the following sin gular conglomeration of parties :- 1. Peelites, 10, viz.:— W. Gladstone. Hon. A. Gordon. Sir J. Graham. Sir W. Ileathcote. Sidney Herbert. 2. Manchester men, 18, viz. : T. Barnes. J. A. Roebuck. J. Crook. W. Williams. R. Cobden. J. Cheetham. J. Bell. T. M. Gibson. S. Laing. G. Hadfield. W. S. Lindsay. J. Kershaw. Sir J. Paxton. J. B. Smith. J. Locke. J. M'Murrough. E. Miall. J. L. Ricardo. 3. Irish Papists, or their representatives, 7, viz.:— T. B. Bellew. E. M'Evoy. G. Bowyer. J. F. Maguire. R. Swift. T. Meagher. T. Kennedy. Said not the Press very truly, " The House of Commons is in a state of great con fusion l" Assuredly this holds out no prospect of peace or pro longed power for the Government. But neither is it a favourable circumstance for the country at large. In such a dissolution of party ties as is here shown, or pre figured, there is no reasonable ground of h•pe of any kind. The Government must be rapidly growing weaker when 35 of its supporters suddenly desert their standard, and support a motion which is, substantially, a vote of want of confidence. But then there is little ground for felicitation on the other side, when it is seen that 31 of the Conservatives quitted their leaders in a moment of emergency, and were only replaced by Mialls and Mta;hers, Bowyers and Roebucks, R. Swift, and R Cobden ! Lord A. Hervey. Lord Jermyn. E. Palmer. R. Phillimore. G. Vernon. In fact, to adopt the well known bull, we may say, that in the vista before us "there is nothing clear but its obscurity." On the one hand, it is not easy to un derstand bow a Government so supported can stand ; but, on the other, it is equally difficult to see how a Go vernment Sc assailed is to be overturned. SHIPPING RETURNS. The shipping returns of the Board of Trade for the past year present results in strict conformity with those of the declared value of our exportations. A large increase is shown in the employment of all classes of ves sels, and especially British. Subjoined are the totals : Entered inward TONNAGE. 1854. 1855. 1856.

British vessels United States' vessels Other countries 7,870,536 8,348,664 9,662,513 With regard to the coasting trade the tonnage en tered inward was 12,808,590 in the year 1854 ; 12,190,002 in 1855 ; and 12,643,847 (including 305 foreign vessels, of an aggregate burden of 52,691 tons) in 1856. The clearances outward were 13,944,501 in 1854 ; 13,084,475 in 1855 ; and 13,430,678 (including 139 foreign vessels of an aggregate burden of 22,559 tone) in 1856. The total employment of foreign tonnage in the coasting trade, which was 89,252 tons in 1855, was only 75,250 tons in 1856• GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANT.—The 64th half•yearly meeting of the shareholders in this company was held yesterday at their offices, 71, Lombard-streat, John Wilkin, Esq., in the chair. The report of the directors and a statement of the accounts for the year ending the 31st December last were read to the meet ing. The report, which was very satisfactory, was unanimously received and adopted by the proprietors. The directors called the attention of the shareholders to the obnoxious and injurious effect of the Stade dues upon British vessels trading to Hamburgh, which, if allowed to prevail, will eventually be the means of causing the whole of the carrying trade between this company and Hamburgh to be confined to vessels sailing under the Hamburgh flag ; inasmuch as the Stade dues—unlike the Danish Sound dues, which are equally levied upon vessels ofall conntriev—arepartially levied, goods carried under the Hamburgh flag not being subjected thereto, to the great prejudice of the vessels of all the countries trading to that port. The usual dividend of 10 per cent,. and a bonus were declared, and the cordial thanks of the proprietors voted to the chairman and directors for their continued zealous services in the management of the company's affairs, after which the meeting Ivaco& yl~~~ --',,,,) t„ XN , S P.AI ) F.

These conclusions, drawn from positive facts, become even more evident if we consider the policy pur sued by England during the last quarter of a century to wards the inhabitants of the coast of the Indian Sea, or if we study her movements and attempts in Southern Asia. In 1837 and 1840 her policy was identical with her present one; on the eve of her rupture with Persia she seized on Ada) rendered herself mistre s s o f Affuhanistan by m eans o f Shah?Shoudjah, as she now endeavours to do with the assistance of Dost•Mahommed, and sought, as to-day, a quarrel with the Celestial Empire. Should Russia not take an active part in the quarrel we may expect to see Persia yield to English influence ; she will sign another treaty under the empire of fear, and will evacuate Herat, unless that town, which is not prubable, should be left to her in exchange for a portion of her coast. But in abandoning his conquest the Shah will not obtain the serious guarantee he sought in Affghanistan, which he desired to render independent under certain conditions, the most essential of which was obedience to the will of Persia." FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVZNING. The Emperor yesterday received a letter by which the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz an nounced to his Majesty the birth of a Princess, daughter of Duke George of Mecklenburg and the Duchess, Grand Duchess of Russia. The Debats contains the following reflections on the difficulties which appear to oppose the satisfac tory solution of the Neuchatel question : " The accounts received from Berlin and from Berne are still rather unfavourable to the speedy settle.- ment of the Neuchatel differences. We do not know the txact progress made in the direct or indirect negotiations of which it was question for some time, always supposing that these negotiations are be - ing carried on, and that the task of deciding the question has not been definitively left to the Paris conferences. But we are surprised at the reaction which has taken place in the sentiments of the two nations, and even in the dispositions of the two governments. At Berlin as in Berne the language of peace and conciliation has given way to an accent of bitterness and irritation, which is reciprocal ; both parties are lavish in accusations and in recriminations, and have in trenched themselves behind pretensions which are equally absolute and exclusive. We heard yesterday from Ber lin that the Prussian government would maintain its conditions, and would not depart from them ; the title of Prince of Neuchatel forms one of these absolute con• ditions. It was even stated at Berlin that Switzerland would not be admitted into the conference of Paris, and that the decisions taken by the great powers would simply be notified to her. On the other hand, if we are well informed, the Federal Council manifests the intention of pronouncing categorically against al most every condition laid down by the cabinet of Berlin, and especially against that which has for object to pre serve for the King of Prussia the title of Prince of Neu chatel. If therefore we are to trust report, the chances of a conciliation have rather diminished than increased since the commencement of negotiations. How are we to explain this reaction ? Are we to suppose that both parties have repented the conc, , abions or promises they have made 1 We point out these unfortunate quip toms, which appear to ga i n aaily, in iutpint auce, but ere de not cease - htlikor-elli the solu tion which is desirable in the interests of the two na tions as in that of European peace. We reckon on the good sentiments of the two nations, and con fide equally in the wisdom and impartiality of the con ference which is charged with the regulation of the differences, and with the re - establishment of a good accord between the two countries."

The following doeuniont ha 3 been addressed by tho Neapolitan army to their King : " To THE MAJESTY OF THE KING FERDINAND 11. " Sire,—For many years your Majesty hat... a xpe rience of the devotion and fidelity of your army and its willingness to shed its blood for the defence of the Throne a d the Monarchy when thero has been occasion for it. Wherefore, now that the future is so dark and dangerous, will your Majesty permit us to raise ou voice and explain our desires ? "Your Majesty obliged us to swear to the Constitution in 1848, and desired that we should combat the exagge rated demands of some persons, from which the total dissulution of the State might have ensued ; and the army co-operated with you with zeal and courage, be cause your Majesty protested always th a t in so doing there was no intention to abolish the statute by you spontaneously conceded, and it was believed/ that it might be consistently with honour and good conscience. But now eight long years have elapsed, and all is tranquil in the kingdom, ani nothing prevents your Majesty from finally giving new life and vigour to the Constitution already granted and sworn to. This is the desire more or less concealed of us all, now that the army has at length acquired a kilo %ledge of itself. "Let your M a j esty cons i der what Europe must say e e another Italianre only in n a g s u covered e over itself ou r of wi t u h s, so t that c w h il g e a ry n , o t w o brethren, who iu e very po i i , t desire what sse desire, that which brings gene ra l prosper i ty, and hence els.) the pros perity ,f Our families. Now that cries are uttered every where in behalf of this unfortunate peopl3 must we point at their broa.its our bayonets and our swords; and can such a st a t e o f t hi ngs long continue ? Your Majesty will certainly provide, according to reason and prudence, fur the future; this, we repeat it, is the desire of the it s conscience, army, which wishes to preserve its honour and conscience, but does not think it can do so so long as your Majesty refuses to satisfy the common desire "THE ARMY."

You are aware that one of the pretensions of Lord Stratford de Redcliffe which • appeared exorbitant to Feruck Khan was that the First Minister of the Shah, the Sadrazam Mirza Aga Khan, should be dismissed. England has abandoned that pretension ; and the Sadrazaur will be maintained in his offic e and dignities. The second pretension of England, and on which the English cabinet was particularly tenacious, was that on resuming his post as British representa tive at Teheran, Mr. ,Murray should receive two visits from the Persian authorities before paying a visit in return. This demand, which it was difficult ,if not impossible for the Shah to ac cede to, has also been given up. Mr. Murray is to be received with all the honours due to his rank, but - the Persian government will not have to sub mit to concessions which would have lowered it in the eyes of the people. Persia has consented to receive English consuls in all the towns in which there are Russian consuls ; and she is to restore Herat, but in return for Bushire." . ePress e,wfth reference esterday,indtulo theges m po t l h ic e y f fo o llo En wi following speculations . land in the Perdan gulf : //
