And here let me say a, word about the tad Indian. lam teld whenever I speak of India and of tablishing justice there,s" Oh y o u must listen to the experience of tl • old Indians." But these old Indians have done some thiegs by which any man may estimate the value and character of their knowledge. • I heard a gentleman in the lieu: e of Commons assert that torture was employed in India for the purpose of collecting the revenue, when he was isrmedrat e ly followed by au old Indian who was a director o f th e East Indian Company, and had been a chairman of the Court of Directors, who distinctly, boldly, and with great vehemence denied that torture was ever perpetrated in India for any such pur pose—the vehemence -of his denial, the firmness, aye, the au lacity with which he denied it, won upon the House of Commons, and they cheereilom they always do cheer, a bold statement. But not long after a com mittee eat on the subject, and a report lwati made. I read that report, and it confirmed all that had been asserted about the use of torture in the British do minions. I have lived long enough . to call to that gentle man's mind the firtnr - ess, the vehemence, and the unhesi tat:ngness of his denial. I dick it in the House of Com mons', and I silenced him. (Cheers.) There are men hers who were present on that occasion. That was the first instance I derived of the value - of an old Indian's experience. The next was still more remarkeblei Up to the vtry hour of —nay, even after the outbreak of the sepoye a very old Indian told us ,that no outbreak would take - plebe. The sepoys, he said, was docile and faithful and- would Lever rebel. But while' this was being sitilthe Sepoys did rebel, and the very men who . said these thin gs o f t h em wer e cu t do wn b y own their o servants, and the ladies with whom they had lived and from whom they bad received nothing but kindness and-tenderness of treatment, and even the very childrenyfhom.they had fandled and nursed, were mar del ed by them. Again, then, I say, we may by this test the value of the old Indian's eiperionee. (Hear, hear.) - The retiult, then, of all this is—let us not go to old In dians for knowledge about India. If you want to know the true state of India go to the hard working missionary —go to the traders, don't go to the governors, who are surrounded by flatterers, and who are bowed down to by the Hindoo. They go out to India from this country young and inexperienced, and are captured by the beau tiful and graceful approach of the Hindoo. They look with gauze before their eyes, and not what is around them. They know nothing of the Hindoo character. Such being the case, an inquiry must take place regard ing the principles on which the future government of India is to be founded. But I warn the Government as to the sort of evidence which they receive. I have not much more to say. But before I close let me say one word to you as representing the people of England. Re collect that you have taken upon yourselves the govern ment of India. You are answerable for all that tappens to be done in the name of the people of Eoglands toward that country. Among other deeds which England has done has been the acquisition of Hindostan. There is an enormous population under your dominion, weak and unciviSeed. You are still the governors of that couetry, and I would beseech you to ree sheet the deep responsibility that now presses upon ysu. You have to govern India ; and upon your shoulders will rest the re sponsibiliiy for the made in wh oh thatcountry is hence forth governed. Your representatives require the spur and sometimes they require the bridle ; it is you upon whose it devolves to use that spur :IA to guide that bri dle. You have a free press and you are enabled to say what you like. You must take every means of impressing upon your representativea the necessity of watching care fully the Government of India. It is a great and onerous duty, but having taken upon ourselves the government of that country we are bound, as honest men, to see it well governed. In the next session the subject cannot be shelved. The people have had their feelings too much excited to allow tr..) government of that country to re main in the hands of those who have hitherto governed it since the scenes that have incurred. Depend upon it Parliament will have to bring to bear upon the Govern ment of India all the intellect and all the independence it possesses, but that intellect and that independence will fail if not backed up by popular opinion ; and I entreat every man within his circle to weigh well within himself the mode and manner in which be thinks Eng land ought to govern the people of India. I believe the time is at hand when all of you will have a direct influ ence in the Government of this country. When . that period arrives your responsibility will be still greater. The great body of us now can certainly influence the councils of the nation by our opinion, but the time is not far from hence when you will be able to determine by your vote who shall govern England. When that time arrives I hope to see a good Government in India —good government wherever the power of England ex tends, and I ask to what part of the earth it does not extend ? For, strange to say, these small Wands exercise an influence upon mankind which no Government ever before wielded. These islands are great in letters, in art, in science, is knowledge, and in happiness. The people of England are like a torch set up to enlighten mankind. You have been enabled, through Providence, to extend your dominion overtire wbolafeeeof theglobe, and it now remains to be seen whether Englishmen are as good as they are brave, whether they are as wise as they are sagacious, and whether they can conduce to d t h u e c edtto happiness the of greatness ng i eu d. as c h h e t er e e y . h ) a ve n- The bon. gentleman then moved the following resolution : " That the system of the double Government of India, f ac mt w t ohe - ser raiseuct with octr develops vsecurecountry, u and as tested by the r esu lt s of its administration, has proved alike incompatible with th e welfare and happiness of our prosperityehodf the British empire, eeenditieee f athned people nationalhth in e t s e a r f e e e t t y and j, and lo pe theirurid r r r e o s p o e u r r t c y e , s, i t arid e x t p o d g e v n e t them h at our wit i pofroltendctiaii;n i b a t j f e t hse a in persons moral e view that to there be established for Indi a a resp onsible form of Go vernment in the na me of the Cr own, under which all abuses may be checked by the control of the people of England, exercised through. th •representatives in the ()sr House of Commons." Mr. OTWAY seconded the resolution, and Mr. MEAD, the late editor of the Friend o f India, supported it. Mr. COLLETT moved the following amendraent, .-- "That the suppression of the Indian rebellion and the redress of Indian grievances can be obtained only by en forcing the penalties of the law upo n those who are alike the authors of both, no t in Indiabut in England ; by restitution to the native princes and people; by the abo lition of the Board of Control ; and by - the resumption by the Queen in Council, by the Parliament, and by the na tion, of control over the East India Company." Mr. CARR seconded the amendment , w lc h . h, on a show of hands, was negatived by a l arge ma jority. Mr. C. MURRAY then moved as an addendum the fol lowing words : tranquillity and so c i a l h a of the h " Moreover, this meeting,bppiness is of opinion that the future people of Ma dostan depend up on tbe faithful recognition on the part of the English G overnment of ancient treat i es entered into with the native princes, and an honourable respect for the religious opinions of th e peop l e o f India; to insure which this meeting suggests a radical change in the repro. sentative system of thi s country—viz., the abrogation of the rate-paying qualifi ca ti on and the s ubstitution of a claim to be registered— manhood suffrage--and the aboli tion of the property qualifi cat i on for members of Parlia ment, without which th ere is no hope of any real or per manent reform in our h ome, colonial, or Indian empire. ' Tice motioe having been seconded, The CHAIRMAN first put the resolution without the addendum, which was carried with only two dissentients. The addendum was then put to the vote, and carried by a large majority. A petition to the House , of Commons, founded on the re solution, was, on tue motion of Mr. ERNEST JONES, unanimously adopted The meeting then separated. During the proceeding s a great deal of interruption and disturbance was occasioned by Captain Atcherley, who by a unanimous vote of the meeting was expelled the room. SUPPRESSION OP TRADE TIIE -AFRICAN SLAVE passe s from the to the Legis lature of that province : " The naval station of We province consists of the sloop Euterpe, the steamer Vienne (which recently re placed the Mage), the brig-schooners Olinda and Eolo, and the small craft, Theresa. These vessels, destined to prevent the African slave traffic, are in inceesant servile both to the south and north of the station, and, under the direction of the distinguished chief commanding them, they zealously perform the duties committed to their charge. " After the capture of the American brig-schooner Mary E. Smith, effected last January by the national vessel Olinda, in the waters of St. Mathew's, no other attempt at such crime has taken place. "Oar people have comprehended th e t i me to have arrived for putting an en d to th e saddest of th e l egac i es left to ns by the first Eur o p ean settlers in our coun t ry , and for washing off the stain w hich still d egra d e d us i n the eyes of the civilised world. Honou r be to the country which, as soon, as it knew its duties both as a nation and a Christian people, showed an exampl e of self-denial, not duty appreciated as yet by an European Government. The slave traffic in Brazil is now a thing only belonging to history ; it will never more make its appearance again, because the necessity of its perpetual extinction is a sen timent impre-sed on the conscience of the Brazilians in such deep characters as to remind us continually of the' horrors with which it has always been attended, not less than of the wounds it has inflicted on our national pride.

"I have told you already, in another place, how eight convicts of that crime, captured on board the said vessel, . are undergoing in prison the penalty to which they have been condemned by the sentence of the 'Judge-Auditors of Marine." INDIA REFORM. A public meetiag was held last evening at St. Martin's Hall, to consider the condition of India and the work ing of the "double Government." Lord Bury, M.P., was in the chair. There were present Mr. Roebuck, M.P., Mr. Otway, Mr. Mead, Mr. Morris, Mr. E. Jones, &c. There was by no means a full attendance in the body of the room. The CHAIRMAN stated the object for which the meet ing had been convened, and observed that the recent mutinies in India were not the immediate cause of call ing the present meetiag on the subject of the govern. went of India, as the question had been agitated for years. In the House of Commons Mr. Kinnaird had moved for an inquiry into the subject of landed tenures, and Sir E. Perry bad brought forward fiscal questions relating to India, while in the House of Lord 3 Lord Albemarle had moved for an inquiry into the system of torture practised in that country. The subject, there fore, of the government of India was not new to the people of this country. Mr. ROEBUCK then came forward to move the first resolution. He said—My Lord Bury, we have met here for a very important purpose. Other countries have been pleased to devolve the government of their affairs either to one man or to a few men, bat to Englishmen it has seemed fit that they should take the government of their own affairs into their own hands; and, although we do devolve the power of the Government to a certain number of persons, who meet in c rtain houses in West minster, yet it does happen that the people of this coun try do take upon themselves to express their own opinion and to inform their representatives what those opinions ale. We are now doing what I have just described. We are about to tell the governing classes of this country what the people of En g land think about the Qovernment of India. We are met for that purpose, and I think we are engaged in an important task. I have therefore considered it my duty to come among you on the present occasion. Although it happens that I am one of those who meet in that celebrated house in Westminster, yet I do believe there are occasions when it behoves the people of this country to speak out, for there is something in the atmosphere of that house which every now and then deadens all English feeling, and requires the voice and hearts of the people to inspire those who sit there with the feelings of Englishmen. I believe that at this moment there is abroad a feeling in England with regard to India which has never been equalled since England was England. We have acquired a dominion there such as the world never has seen. Even Rome in her palmiest days possessed not an empire equal to ours. That em i ire has been attained by the hardihood, the sagacity, and the great qualities of the people of England. - We owe it not to any of the di , tinguislied classes. The clerk from the desk, the great Clive, was the founder of the empire of England in India. The population of that em pii e, according to the la-it accounts, amounts to about 200 millions of inhabitants, all of whom are under our rule. Of the wealth of that country I will not now speak. But having acquired dominion over such an empire, it becomes our duty to exercise that dominion upon prin ciples of fairness to those millions whom we have subju gated. We came to their shores a trading company, and we pretended to enter into a mere trading correspond ence with them. But it has so happened that freen that time to this eve have been an aggressive people. We have however, whatever, the means, acquired dominion in India. For the happiness of the great mass of the people I believe that that dominion provides in a far greater de• gree than their own native Governments. For the tunes Of the governed the Government of India by England is a blessing ; hut, though it be a blessing, still I believe our power has been acquired by unjust means. In ac knowledging that, as I at once do, I also acknowledge that upon the people of England there weighs a great responsibility. It is our duty now, having acquired possession of that country, so to govern it that in the eyes,of God and man we may stand justified as its rulers. But it must be confessed that from the time of our first acquisition to the present moment great faults have been committed in the. government of that country, and great injustice has been inflicted upon its inhabitants. Let me, however, distinguish. The great mass of the inhabitants of India have derived vast benefit from the government of England ; but there is a governing class, and they have been bowed down by the superior power of England. They are are our enemies, and wilt be our enemies to the last. This governing class, if left to them selves would be the curse of the great body of the people. We stand in the position of these governing classes, and we have to distinguish ourselves from them, and by the qualities of our rule to justify our dominion. How, then, have we acted'! For many long years the East India Company was a trading body. It then pleased Mr. Pitt, who was the great political opponent of Mr. Fox, to bring in his India Bill. Mr. Fax had endeavoured to make the Government of India a Parliamentary Govern ment. There was then ruling a man called George 111., and ho hated Parliamentary dominion, and believed that if India was given up to Parliamentary rule he Ovould be the 141avo of Parliament. In conjunction, therefore, with Mr. Pitt, he cajoled the people of England into believing that Mr. Fox intended great injury to him. Mr. Fox was accordingly turned out, and Mr. Pitt then brought in his India Bill ; and what did he propose Mr. Pitt was an acute and quick-witted man, and, having got the directors of the East India Company.to aid him in dis charging Mr. Fox, he turned round upon his associates and made in reality a Parliamentary Government of India ; but he made it so in such a fashion as to do away with all possible chance of any good arising therefrom. He made it in the form of which the resolution speaks. He formed what is called the double Government. The Court of Directors down in Leadenhall-street were to be controlled by a board meeting in Cannon-row. At the head of that board is the president thereof. He is them' ruler of India. He'can do exactly as he pleases. The Court of Directors are bound to obey him, and they do obey hint. But then they play that game which children de scribe as "It is no child of mine." If anything happens amiss, the Board of Control says —" I am not answerable —acd the Court of Directors say—" We are not answer able"—and the Governor-Generalof India says—" I am not answerable." So that by dividing the responsibility, and at the same time concentrating the power, the Pre sident of the Board of Control becomes the irresponsible pass °d i the h c a e t n i s t u i r s e a o p f ° this is whichm meeting. t w ine wish g. W b ey our to u; rifoslotll do governor it eioine o tt f oel be governed well the Government must be responsible, and tor that reason I mean to propose—first, that the Board of Directors be entirely done away with. go one step further, and destroy the Control. (Hear.) If we accomplish that goodo ß bj o e a c r t d w o e f wil In the place of these I would erect a single man, and I would call him " the Secretary of State for India," and then Letupo [i ra t e ! i d m i t l i o w g o n slhd. There o h n e c r o e n o t r r e a t t w e a v l the r e l rydi ffe e r sp eo o t n p s o i b r p i ty. e 5 for which all legislation for. India is concerned. The first is the establishing of a machinery in England by which to c feelingr e n t o t atemo among the peopleresponsibility of England here—the "getting t o i not uponup of thea n tguorve° governing g s b n o o dy f a r ther d ai For y. that inquiry. and I was going to say for ever. Bet there i s a further ulvo pti o r 4 p o o. d e o the it aLte once, object—namely, to frame resolutions embodying prin ciples by which India should be governed, and framing a machinery in India by which these resolutions may be carried into effect. In order to begin these legislative improvements we must do away with the Court of Direc tors and the Board or Control. Having done that, and having created a Secretary of State for India, the House of Commons will then be bound to inquire into the best way of governing that country. That brings me to the question, namely, on what principles ought we to base our Indian Government, and brwhat machinery can we carry those principles into effect. Having got a Secre tary of State for India, we should have a Government in India. I would propose for the three Presidencies — Bengal, Madras, and Bombay, that there should be three governors as at present, but that all the Presidencies should be governed by a municipal body, so that English men in India should govern themselves as far as the condition of the country would permit ; for the condition of India as compared with all other colonies is peculiar. All other colonies are formed by Englishmen. They go out from this country and carry with them the feelings, the language, the customs, the character, and the capaci ties of Englishmen. The beat thing you can do for a colony so formed is to allow it to govern itself. In fact, they carry out a little England. The colony grows up and becomes a great community, and it is best governed by being self-governed. But India is a very different thing. We go there as conquerors. We find a race differing from ourselves in language, in religion, in arts, in everything. There is an actual type of the character of the Indian to be seen in the tiger—the soft, velvetty paw, the beautiful line of grace in all its movements; but death lurks under that paw ; cruelty such as the heart can hardly conceive dwells in that breast. (Hear.) I ask you, all of you who have read of the deeds of the last two months, whether your hearts have not con tracted, your cheek tarried pale, and your breath gone away at the horrors perpetrated upon your countrymen and countrywomen ? Hear) Do you believe that Englishmen in the wildest fury that belong to such men could have done such deeds I Oh, ne I (Cheers.) I cannot believe that there is a man in England that would have perpetrated any one of the horrors that-I have read of. (He ir.) But I was feebly describing the difference between the character of the Hindoo and an English man. Englishmen can govern themselves ; Hindoos cannot. Having acquired dominion of Hindostan, the government of that country devolves upon England, and England alone, and not upon the people of Hindostan. If you were to treat them as you would Englishman, it you were to give them institutions of self-government, and then leave them to theraselues, there would be intermin .able anarchy, confusion, and horror. England must, then govern India, and must establish there English ideas and English principles. Having, then, to govern India with English feelings, the question is by what machinery shall we govern them so as to do it with justice to the natives. The first thing is that there must be perfect liberty as regards religion. I don't mean that you are to foster the prejudices, the ignorances, and the abominations of the Mechem religion. No such thing. But I would allow every m an to follow the light of t h at reason which God has given him. You have to seta good example by your enlightened religious principles, and having esta blished perfect freedom on that point I would require you to make the religion of the government of India the RUSSIA AND TIIK TRUTY OF PARIS, ( From the Daily Yon ) Two documents highly illustrative of the remarks we male on Tuesday on the non-fulfilment of the Twelfth Article of the Treaty of Paris appeared in yesterday's Daily News. We then explained that the real motive of this bad faith on the part of Russia is-that she may, by the exclusion of British commerce, British consuls, and the British flag from the eastern coast of the Black Sea, the more easily, and unobservedly, carry on- her present desperate attempt at once and for •ever to subdue the independence of Circassia ; that by the Caucasus she would gain command • over Persia, and so change, to our detriment as an. Asiatic Power, the whole face of the Oriental question ; and that we had consequently an interest of the highest kind in insisting on the full and literal fulfilment of -the Twelfth Article of the Treaty of Paris. In one of the documents published yesterday, the Russian Government, through its Mission at Constantinople, has offered its explanations of the regulations recently issued as to its Black Sea ports. In the other document, the Chiefs of Circassia ' with touch ing and affecting simplicity, point out to the Go vernments which were parties to the Treaty of Paris the consequence to them of the faithless and in sincere course which Russia is pursuing. It is not often- that such irresistible evidence so quickly fol lows the expression of an opinion. These docu ments establish beyond doubt the literal accuracy of the views we presented three days ago to-the public. The circular of the Circassian Chiefs forces pro minently on our recollection the deplorable insuffi ciency of the Treaty of Paris at - a point where British. interests were directly involved. It re minds Europe - how Turkey never had the coast of Circassia to cede to Russia, how the Porte possessed only a religious suzerainty over Circassia, and how for thirty years the Circassians had successfully, in the main, sustained their independence. Such was the position of the question when the war of 1853 broke out. Immediately the Allied fleets entered the Euxine, Russia buried her fleet in the harbour of Sevastopol, destroyed the forts she had occupied on the eastern coast, and retreated to her own territory. During the premature Conferences of Vienna Lerd John Russell at least had his attention fixed on this side of the Black Sea ; and would, had the Conferences come to anything, have required nego tiations to be based, not on the status quo ante bellum,, which Lord Clarendon adopted at Paris, but on the existing status quo, involving the com plete abandonment by Russia of all pretensions to the coast of Circassia. At the Conferences of Paris, Lord Clarendon wholly and entirely neglected tins subject. Prostrated as Russia then was, it is a matter of notoriety that her Plenipotentiaries would, had the representatives of England insisted on it, have agreed to such abandonment. It is a matter of public scandal that Lord Clarendon never made it a condition of the Peace. The excuse is, that France had no interest in suoh a condition, and might not have supported England had she required it. But this excuse only makes matters worse, for it now impugns the good faith and loyalty of France at the ivery time when Lord Palmerston boasted that in all which related to the Peace the two Cabinets formed only one Government, and were but committees of the same organisation, one sitting in Paris, the other in London. Moreover, we have since seen, and now feel, that on points in which England has no immediate interest of any sort or kind Lord Palmerston makes no scruple in differing with France, and pursuing a policy which must, if persevered in, end in complete separation. Instead of pursuing, in this respect, the simple and safe course, by requiring Russia to resign and abandon all pretensions to the coasts of Cir cassia, the Treaty of Paris neutralised the Black Sea, forbade all hostilities in it, denied Rus-ia the right of re-establishing arsenals or military positions on its littoral, and declared its trade free at every harbour and for every nation. These were high-sounding stipulations ; as yet, however, they are mere empty words ; for no sooner was the Week Sea thus pronounced to be neutral, hostilities in it forbidden, Russia denied the right o' fortifying its coast, and the trade of the Euxine thrown open to the world, than Russia im mediately re-occupied the forts on the eastern coast, began to place them in the same military position they were in before she or the Allies blew them up, refused issue to d recee regulations consulswhich except helosedto l t v r h a eeh drensote only her own ports, but those also which did not belong to her, arid now dismisses, with a stroke of -the pen, the obligations imposed on her 'at Paris. About these facts there is no doubt or controversy, and the policy out of which they arise is the desperate effort which Russia is now making to dominate over Persia by the conquest of the Caucasus. On the death of Nicholas a change of Russian policy, on this side at least, was expected. The new Czar was described as a mild and beneficent soya reign, who saw and regretted the mistakes of his father ; as a Prince who would devote himself to the internal improvement of his country and the do mestic happiness of his people. The old Russian party disliked, it was said, this interminable war in Circassia which the German counsellor of the de ceased potentate had originated ; they mourned over the hoes of sons and of serfs in its endless mortality ; they received no recompense in its successes for the treasurewasted on it; they saw that all the odium of the struggle fell on. Russia, while all the glory and romance went to Circassia ; it was, they assured their English frier cls at German watering-places and Italian winter residences, costly, destructive, un popular, and it would, to their certain knowledge, be speedily abandoned. Their assurances or their expectations have, however, been falsified; and the Circassian war is at this moment more vigorously an.d energetically carried on under the gentle Aletander than ever it was even by the obstinate Nicholas. Ths augmented perseverance isprobably to be traced to two causes, for which our own Cabinet must be held primarily responsible : first, the obvious defect al ready noticed in the Treaty o,f Paris ; and secondly, the war into which England was recently plunged in Persia. If England will assail the independence of Persia from the East, we must expect Russia to retaliate from the West, and thus, between the rivalry of England and Russia, Persia is sure to suffer, and never to the advantage of England. Let us now see how Russia accounts for her dis regard of the Twelfth Article of the Treaty of Paris. Exact'y as we supposed she would, she takes ad vatitap of the provision as to regulations for qua rantine, customs, arid police, to prevent consuls being appointed and to exclude commerce. It does not appear from the Protocols of the Conferences of Paris, who proposed this provision. It is, how ever, certain that Lord Clarendon agreed to it with out a remark, notwithstanding the experience of the previous 30 years had shown it was by such regulations that Russia carried out her aggressive and exclusive policy in the Euxine. Now surely, if experience of the past be any guide for the regu lation and safety of the future, this was precisely the kind of subterfuge to be guarded against and prevented. Lord Clarendon did nothing of the sort ; he accepted, with all the simplicity of a dove, that which Russia proposed with all the wisdom of the serpent. The consequence, as, an infant might have anticipated, is, that the Twelfth Article, which was meant to control Russia, and to give England and France securities for the neutrality and pacific character of the Black Sea, affords Russia an oppor tunity of completely dominating the eastern coast, of excluding all commerce, and of more easily than ever carrying on a savage and remorseless war against Circassia. There is no concealment of object, or attempt at delusion in the notice issued by the Russi an Embassy at Constantinople. " Free from any impediments," says the Twelfth Article of the Treaty of Paris, " commerce in the ports and waters of the Black Sea shall be subject only to regulations of health, customs, and police, framed in a spirit favourable to the development of com men ' ial transactions." "In consequence " says the Russian Notice, "of the internal state of the provinces of the Caucasus," three ports only can be opened at present. If, hereafter, circumstances shall permit the esta blishment of customs and quarantine authori ties at other points of the coast, where foreign vessels can be admitted, due notice will be given of the fact. In the meantime the approach to the ports, bays, and harbours, with the exception of the three abovementioned, is interdicted to foreign vessels." If this be not a most substantial breach of the Treaty of Paris, it is' difficult to say what can be a violation of it. The neutralisation and commercial freedom of the Euxine were principles embodied in that Treaty. But here a power is assumed by Russia to use the Black Sea to carry on military eoaspetorartniopnosrtsa, ~ gai i n n s e t on C so ir q c n as e s n i n a o , of the provinces of the . Caucasu s. " So that the fulfilment of the Eleventh and Twe)f th Article of of a t n h d e i t n o ter c n lo a s l e st t a h t e e the Treaty of Penis is made to depend, .not on liberal regulations as to health, customs, and police, as the Treaty contemplated, but on the conquest of Circassia by Agstsia. Until that conquest is [PR= 4D. STAMPEID sri achieved, "the ports, bays, and harbours"—for RiFsia grows minute in her insolence—of the east ern c')ast aro " interdicted to foreign fi10..." Th- Treaty of Paris opened all these " ports, bays, and rbours" to commerce ; the Court of St. Peters , burg, taking advantage of the alienation between France and England, "interdicts them to all foreiz,L. flags." But the Treaty of Paris was signed by England, France, Turkey, Austria, Prussia, Sar dinia, as well as by Russia ; and the question is whether the interests of Europe and good faith have to prevail, or the interests of Russia and bad faith. Such is the dilemma into which Lord Clarendon, by his unskilful diplomacy in the Conference of Paris, and his careless redaction of the Treaty of Paris, has plunged us. Is Lord Palmerston, that sworn. foe of Russia, ready to confront these pre tensions of her in the interests of England and of Europe, or will he in this instance again truckle to Russia with the same subservience as he did in that affair of the Vixen, which Lord Stratford de Red- cliff° long ago brought under the consideration of the House of Commons NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. A General Order issued by his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief reprehendipg the lenity of members of General Courts-martial on the trial of officers convicted of grave offences, was yesterday morning read in the garrison messroom at Wool wich, and desired to be generally made known, as follows " Horse-Guardg, Dec. 8. "Upon two occasions officers who have been convicted aeon the clearest evidence of most severe offences against military discipline have been recommended byjgeneral courts-martial to' her Majesty's merciful ionsideration In one case the individual was found guilty of having ab sented himself from his corps without leave for a 'consi derable time—setting at defiance all military subordina tion. In the other case the prisoner was convicted of habitual con'empt of the orders of his commanding officer, and was moreover found guilty of scandalous conduct unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman. In other instances there were no mitigating circumstances, but in - both the courts-martial having adjudged the prisoners the punishment due to their crimes, accompanying the sentence by a recommendation to mercy, the General Commanding-in-Chief, in the exer cise of his judgment, did not feel justified in supporting such recommendation, based upon the youth and inexpe rience of the offender. There have been—and there may hereafter be—occasions where youth and inexperience may be urged in mitigation of punishment, but persevering and systematic disobedience of orders and deliberate falsehood can admit of no palliation, and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge most earnestly desires that, where officers are called upon to adjudicate upon matters involving such serious offences, they will pause and seriously reflect before they recommend to her Ma jesty's clemency individuals who have been found guilty, and thereby have been proved unworthy of serving their Queen and country in a pr,fession which must be upheld by the principle of honour and discipline." The de+achment of 13th Light Infantry, needed to complete the Argo's allotment of troops for India, having arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from Wales, and the medicine chest having also found its way on board from Devon, the ship will leave Portsmouth harbour for Spithead this forenoon, and sail thence to-morrow morning for India, wea ther permitting. A court-martial, comprising Cipt. H. Eyres, C. 8., of H.M. ship St. Vincent, president ; Capts. the lon. J. Denman, of the Victoria and Albert ; G. H. Seymour, C. 8., of the Victory; R. Harris, of the Illustrious • T. M. Mason, of the Curacoa ; R. S. Hewlett, dB., of the Excellent ; R. Moor seom, C. 8., of the Diadem; W. Crispin, additional of the Victoria and Albert ; and W. J. Hellyer, deputy-judge-advocate of the fleet, assembled yes- , terdsy morning an board the St. Vincent, in Ports mouth harbour to try Lieut. R. Chambers, of H. M. ship Blenheim, on a charge of returning on board that ship on the morning of the 10th inst., from leave, in a state of drunkenness. Captain the Hon. G. F. Hastings, of the Blenheim, prosecuted. The Court, after hearing the evidence in support of the charge, called upon the prisoner for his defence, which was an able composition. Ho handed in a great number of certificates of character from the commanding officers under whom he had served, all which were testimonials of the highest order in his favour, and remarkably so as regards his habitual sobriety and gentlemanly demeanour. The Court found the charge proved, but in consideration of the prisoner's .previous high character "only ad judged 'him to- be severely reprimanded and dis missed her Majesty's ship Blenheim." Lieut. W. S. C. Pinwill, 27th Enniskilline, has been appointed to the command of the troops gar risonieg Upnor Castle, Chatham. Yesterday 270 recruits arrived from the Northern and North-western districts, and, having been sur gically inspected at the Chief recruiting depot, Delahay-street, Westminster, proceeded to Chat ham to join the Provisional Battalion.

At a meeting held last night in the Fr eemasons'- hall, Woolwich, a collection was set on foot in aid of the fund for the relief of the wives and families of the soldiers of the garrison now or here after to proceed on duty to India. The amount col lected was stated to exceed 501., which is to be handed over to Mrs. Tulloch, the lady president of the relief committee in Woolwich Arsenal. Her Majesty's paddlewheel stoamsloop Ardent, Commander J. H. Cave, will leave Greenbithe to-day fortbe West Coast of Africa, calling at Ports mouth. On proceeding from Woolwich to Green hithe she was accompanied in the measured mile by, an engineer officer of the dockyard to - verify her rate of steam, which was nine knots per hour.

We have to announce the death of Rear-Admiral Sir F. Beaufort, F.R. S., F.G.S. F. R. A.S. ' &c., which took place at Brighton on Wednesday. Rear- Admiral Beafort was the son of the late Rev. D. Augustus Beaufort, D.D., rector of Navan, county Meath, and vicar of Collon, county Louth. He entered the navy June 21, 1787, as a volunteer on board the Colossus, 74, Capt. H. C. Christian, sta tioned in the Channel ; he became midshipman, in June, 1790, of the Latona, 38, Capt. A. Bertie. He next served for three years in the Aquilon, 32, Capt. the Hon. R. Stopford, one of Lord Howe's repeaters in the action of June 1, 1794 ; and while attached to the Phaeton, 38, commanded in suc cession by the latter officer and Capt. lames Nicoll Morris, was present in Cornwallis's celebrated retreat, June 17, 1795 ; assisted in the course of the same year iu driving on shore on the Isle de Re and destroying L'Echou, of 28 guns ; took part in the capture, March 10, 1796, of La Bonne Citoy enne, of 20 guns ; fought in a partial action, March 23, 1798, with the Fi ench 36-gun frigate La Charente ; was instrumental, Sept. 8 following, to the capture of La Flore, 36 • and witnessed the t a king on various occasions oinine privateers and other armed vessels. On Oct. 28, 1800, while first lieutenant of the Phaeton, he performed an exploit of great spirit and gallantry in boarding, with the barge and cutters under his orders, and capturing, after an obstinate resistance, the Spanish polacre rigged ship San Josef, carrying 14 bra seamen, and 22 soldiers, moored under the protec tionnghgeu,4 of five guns on the fortress of Fuengirola, near Malaga, and flanked by a French privateer. For his determined bravery iii this affair, in which the 1 enemy had 19 men wounded, and the British One man killed and 4 wounded, he, who, form ene- of the latte'e liv , l • eivod the head and . several sirp.

Capt. Beaufort did nor, how ever, join the latter ship until Dec. 12 following, being in the interval employed protecting the out ward-bound trade to Portugal, Cadiz, and Gibral tar, in accompanying. two Spanish line-of-battle ships from the latter place to Minorca, and in dis charging the duties from Sept. 27 to Oct. 21 ‘ of acting captain of the Ville do Paris, 110. During the two following years he was actively engaged in a survey of the coastof Karammia, in Asia Minor, an employment he was obliged to relingir i-h in con sequence of a nearly fatal gunshot wcarnii he re ceived from the hands of a fanatical Turk, Juno 20, 1812. Captain Beaufort, who had previously contributed to the extirpation of a band of pirates from the southern part of the Mores, then returned home with convoy, and on the 29th of Ootober in the same year was paid of; Por several years after his arrival in England Rear-Ad miral Beaufort appears to have been fully occupied in laying down the results of his labours, and in LunStructing, under the Lords of the Admiralty, a variety of charts, of which we may enumerate one of the; Archipelagn, three of the Black Sea, &c., including the Coast of Afric9, and seven of Kara mania. He became hydrographer to the Admi- . ralty in July, 1832; was nominated in April, 1835, a commissioner for inquiry into the laws, &c. under which pilots were appointed, governed, arid paid ; and again, in January, 1845, for inquiring into the state of the harbours, shores, and rivers of the united kingdom. He accepted the rank of retired rear-admiral on the Ist of October, 1846. THE FORCE AT SHEERNESS, &c.
