NEWCASTLE-lIPON-TYNE —There had been va rious rumours of - opposition to the sitting memberi during the Week,. but these assumed no tangible fFin. till Saturday evening, when. a crowded public meeting was held in the Lecture-room to 0111k:et the present state of the repieseutitiou, which vrai alleged . by the conveners of the meeting to be tu4s tisfactory. Both the late members were .present "and addressNl the meeting. Mr: Culley, a town-coun cillor, . introduced Mr. Carstairs, of London,. who, he said, had made his fortune as a merchant, ahl was now a retired, independent gentletdan. Mr. Carstairs then adlresied the meeting; and' said titat on being acquainted that a suitable representative was wanted for _Newcastle and solicited to coth, forward he at once complied, and was now ib.thbit hands ready to undertake the representation of 'he borough in the ensuing Parliament on "Lberat min ciple4, which rather verged towards RadiealisM. With . respect to the Cninese, he said ho was well f ii: ac quainted with their character, and denoune• th' m as the greatest barbarians. He-did:not altoget er blame Lord Palmerston for his Chinese poli y ; still he thought war should not be entered upon save in the last resort. The Rev. Mr. Rutlierfo I followed tvith . a.motion declaratory of the *pinion of the m , eting., that Mr. Carstairs was a fit tin I proper person to represent the borough in Parlia ment. Sir J. Fife, an alderman in the borough, opposed this, and c tiled upon the constituency, to re-elect the late members. The motion was then put, and a very considerable majority appeared ifor Mr. Carstairs, but still there was an • imporant difference of opinion.

Gentleinen,—Parliament having been dis Solved in crier that the electors of the United Kingdom may have an opportunity of expressing their Opinion on the existing state of public affairs, I' preient myself to you as a candidate for the Continuance 'of that confidence with which, as your representative, I have so long been favoured. • • , The question which is subMitted to the judgment of the country is, .which shall be the men to Whcise hands shall be committed the destinies of the . na tion, and whether that charge shall continue to he confided to the present Administration, or whether it shall be transferred tolhataggregation of hitherto discordant elements, by whose combined action on a lute occasion a vote of censure, was passed upon her Majesty's Government.' . _ The claims of the present Administration to the confidence of the country rest upon facts and events which will formai' important chapter in the history of these times. A 'proclamation has "been by Mr. Smed ley, High -Bailiff of Westminster, appointing th e nomination for noon on Thursday next, at the usual place in Coient-gi.rden-market. No signs of eleAloneering bustle and excitement are visible within the precincts of this ancient city, which h•is been the. scene of so many severe political struggles. Sir De Lacy Evans and Sir J. V. Shelley, the late members, are the only candidates who have isstied addresses to the constituency, and there seemslitt'e prospect of any opposition being offered to the re-: turn of these gentlemen. Mr. Westerton, whose name is well known in connection with the recent proceedings in the Ecelesiastica-1 Court and before the Judicial Committee of Vie Privy Council rela tive to the Pnieyite nraAices at St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, and Mr. J, C. Wool, a brewer, of VictoriastreA, Pimlico, have been mentioned as candidates, the former gentleman being recom mended as in favour of " Parliamentary Reform, a large extension of the suffrage, votes by b illot, dii endowment of Maynooth, no church-rates, and no Tractarian encroachment," and the latter gentle man being described as a Liberal Conservative. No active measures appear, however, to have been taken by either of these gentletnen to bring their claims prominently under the notice of the elec tors. Mr. Westerton is ready t come forward, provided he is returned wi hoot expense to himself, and. we believe his friends will determine this day (Tuesday) whether or not he shall_ take the field.

The Directors have much pleasure in announcing the receipt from Tt• Petersburg of official copies of the do cuments confirming the in telligence of the successful te rmination of the negotiations with the "flint rial Russian Government relative to this Railway. In consequence of the many advantageous changes which have the made in the length and ro ute of this line, in the construction of 'no architectural works, rod in the relaxation of some of the original r estrictive speculations, the Directors have been enabled to accept a reduction in the fixed capital. and thus materially improve the prospect of future dividends. The term of the concession has been e xtended from 56 to 75 years, datingCo from the opening of t h e whole line ; during which period the Co mpany will enjoy the profits ist , the Imperial Government has not reser ved to itself the right to P ase the line during the term of the concession. th _ Jae terms, as now arranged, enable the Directors to substantiate renresentatien of a minimum intere st of 5 per cent upon ;117_ required capital ; and the terms of the contract for the con trtion of the line as approved by the engineevin-chief leave such eta"gin as • to justify the Directors in antici p ating an increase on Percentage. m en .

OMEN, M.A., Chairman. In the execution of the stipulations of this treaty difficulties in regard to matters of great importance arose. Those difficulties, by firmness in negotia t. on, her Majesty's Government mainly contributed in a satisfactory manner to remove, and the full attainment of the treaty, in regard _to the matters which those difficulties related, has thus been secured. At the beginning of the recent session of Parlia ment we announced our intention of taking off the war portion of the income tax, and we proposed a budget which was approved by a majority of 80 votes. The Persian mar, which had originated in aggres sions and breach of engagement by the Persian Government, was put an end to by a treaty of peace concluded at Paris. Our diplomitlc relations with the United States had been replaced upon their usual footing by the appointment of Lord Napier, and his departure for Washington, Papers had been presented to Parliament ex plaining the reasons why the British and French missions had been withdrawn from Naples, and no notice had been given of any motion to be founded on those papers. • Upon none of- these papers did the Opposition deem it possible to found any successful attack on the Government. But events of much importance had happened in China—unforeseen by her Majes ty's Government, and not the consequence of any steps taken by them. An insolent barbarian, wielding authority at Canton, had violated the British flag, broken the engagements of treaties, offered rewards for the heads of British subjects in that part of China, and planned their destruction by murder, assassinations, and poisons. The British officers, civil and naval,- on the sta tion had taken those measures which appeared to them to be proper and necessary to obtain satisfac tion and redress ; and her Majesty's Government had approved of the course pursued by those offi cers in vindication of the national honour and for the assertion of our national rights. A combination of political parties—not till the last session united —carried a resolution, declaring the course pursued by our officers in China unjustifiable, and conse quently censuring her Majesty's Government for having approved that course. But if that course was unjustifiable, the British Government, instead of demanding an apology, ought to make one, and instead of expecting satis faction, ought to offer compensation to the Chinese Cumraissioner ; and this course the combined op ponents of the Government, if their Parliamentary victory had installed them in office, must, in con sistency, have been prepared to pursue. Will the British nation give their support to men who have thus endeavoured to make the humi liation and degradation of their country a stepping stone to power ? I confidently assert that such will not be the an swer that will be given to the appeal now made to the electors of the United Kingdom. We offer to the country a Government founded upon far different principles. Abroad it will be our earnest endeavour to pro cure peace, but peace with honour and with safety —peace with the maintenance of national rights— peace with security to our fellow-countrymen in foreign lands. At home our guiding principles will be judicious and well-regulated economy, progressive improve ment in all that concerns the welfare of the nation, the continued diffusion of education among the people, and such well-considered reforms as from time to time may be required by changes of cir cumstances and by the increasing growth of intel- ligence. On these grounds I present myself to you, and I anticipate with confidence the result of the share which you are about to take in the solemn decision which the constituencies of the United Kingdom are about to pronounce.—l have the honour to be, gen tlemen, your obedient and devoted servant, PALMERSTON. 94, Piccadilly, March 23, 1857. CITY OF LONDON. The usual proclamation preliminary to an election was made by the Sheriffs in the Guildhall yester day, and the nomination has been fixed for Friday next—the polling to take place on the following day. Mr. W. A. Rose having retired, in order to present himself to the electors of Newport, Lord J. Russell is now the only competitor t ) the four can didates put forward by the Registration Association —viz., Baron Rothschild, Sir J. Duke, Mr. Craw ford, and Mr. Currie. The supporters of both p ir ties have organised their committees and sub-com mittees, by whom the city has been divided into lis tricts for canvassing purposes. The canvass on behalf of Lord John was commenced as early as Thursday last, the day on which the noble lord presented him self to the meeting at the London Tavern ; it Iris been actively prosecuted ever since, and the result so far is taken by his adherents as an earnest of cer tain success. The canvass for the other candidates was not opened till Saturday last, and it has pro ceeded hitherto very languidly, owing to the ab sence of all Conservative opposition. At the same time the friends of the four " Liberal and Commer cial" candidates aver that Lord Jelin is already far behind, and confidently anticipate that he will not only be rejected, but will be left in a "miserable minority." It is not felt to be necessary by either side to stimulate excitement by the holding of pub lic meetings or the keeping up of an active fire of squibs or pasquinade 3 . The only noticeable attempt in the latter line is the issue (doubtless unauthorised) of some wretched deggrel verses, in which vile puns are made upon the name of Mr. " Mikes" Currie, the bad taste of which those whose cause they are intended to serve Nieuld be the first to repudiate. THE TOWER HAMLETS. Mr. Child, the returning officer, proclaimed the writ on Monday morning, and he hai fixed the nomination for Friday at noon. The late repre sentatives, Sir W. Clay and Mr. Butler, solicit re election. An address has appeared from a former opponent, Mr. Acton Ayrton. ANGLESEY BOROUGHS.—Lord George Paget has issued a farewell address on retiring from the re preentation of these .boroughs. The Hon. W. 0. Stanley has publicly addressed the electors at Holyhead. BOSTON.—On Saturday evening a crowded meet ing of the supporters of Mr. Herbert Ingram was held at the London Tavern, Mr. Cai.ter in the chair. Mr. Ingram was loudly cheered, and there seems no doubt but that ho will be placed at the head of the poll. BRIGHTON.—Mr. Kennedy, in order to avoid a division iu the Liberal interest, has retired from the contest, and Mr. Coningham has a good pro spect of success. . CAMBRIDGE (COUNTY) AND ISLE OF ELY.—A new candidate has come , forward to contest the repre sentation of this county in the person of Mr. H. J. Adeane, who, in his address to the electors, de clares himself a general supporter of the policy of Lord Palmerston's Government, but not willing to fetter himself by pledges. CA.RDiGANSH RE.—No opposition is as yet threat ened aga'nst the return of the Earl of Lisburne, but it is thought a Liberal would . btand a fair chance.' Captain Plyse's return for the boroughs is thought certain, and he is - extremely popular. CARNARVONSIIIRE BOROUGHS. —A new candidate has appealed to the ele , ltors, in opposi ion to Mr. Bulkeley Hughes. Mr. J. G. J. Green, of Ash ley-houise, Carnarvon, professes to enter the lists on broad and Liberal principle; and advocates the diminution of the national burdens. DENBIGHSHIRE BOROITGHS.—Mr. West, Who re tires through ill-health, declines to support Mr. Mainwaring. A spirited contest is anticipated be tween Mr. Mainwaring and Mr. Maurice, whose views are, it is said, diametrically opposed. DENBIGH (COUNTY).—Sir W. Wynn and Colonel Biddulph will, it is expected, be returned unop posed. The former has represented the coun yl6 years. DERRY.-11 1 a. L. Heywortb, who voted against Government on the Chinese question, has finally declined to contest the borough. Mr. Alderman Moss, who announced himself as a candidate in Mr. Heyworth's place, has also retired from the contest. The candidates now in the field are Mr. Bass, the present member, Mr. W. M. James, a Chancery barrister, and Mr. Beale, deputy chairman of the Midland Railway. All three are Liberal. DERBYSHIRE(SOUTH). —There is every probabilit y of a severe contest in this division of the county. :—M , The following candidates are in the field r. Colvile (a Liberal Conservative tlle present mem ber, Mr. Mundy, h a vi ng retired), Lord Stanhope, son of the Earl of Chesterfield, and Mr. Clovres (Conservatives), and Mr. Evans (Liberal). DEVON (NORTH).—There is every probability of a severe contest in this division of the county. The battle has already commenced, and it is expscted to resemble in intensity an d v igour those hard fought contests between Lo r d Eb r ing.on now Earl For tescue, and Sir T. D. A c l an d, which made this pact of the county somewhat famous 30 years ago. There are two Conservatives in the field, Sir S. Northcote and the Hon. Mr. Trefusis, and a Liberal in the person of Mr. J. W. Buller of Downes. DORCHESTER.—Mr. J. Pilcber arrived this day . (Monday) at 1 o'clock, and immediately commenced his canvass, which appears to have been far more successful than he cnuld have anticipated. He is supporter of Lord Palmerston. DUDLEY. —An Opposition candidate has at last been found in the person of Mr. H. B. Sheridan, a barrister, and a grandson, it is said, of the cele brated dramatist. Ho issued an address to the elec tors yesterday. EssEx (SouTH).—Mr. Bramston and Sir W. B. Smith are to be opposed by R. B. Wingfield, of Orsett-hall. _ . . FLINT (COUNTY).--A severe and sharp contest is expected here, Sir Stephen Glynne being about to be brought forward in opposition to the Hon. T. E. M. Lloyd Momtyn. FLINTSHIRE BOROUGHS. —Mr. R. P. Warren has again determined to go to the poll, in opposition to Sir John Hanmer. Mr. Warren announces him self as an independent Conservative, pledged to support Conservative principles, but bound to no party. GLAMORGANSHIRE. — An active canvass is being carried on by the two Liberal candidates, Mr. C. R. M. Talbot, and Mr. H. Hussey Vivian, late M.P. for Truro. _ _ _ GLOUCESTER.—AdmiraI Sir M. F. Berkeley, senior naval Lord of the Admiralty, and Mr. W. P. Price, the Liberal candidates for this city, addressed a large body of the electors on Friday evening. Sir R. Carden, the Conservative candidate, was not present. Admiral Berkeley, in the course of his speech, said he had many years since become a con vert t the ballot, end ho had felt his conviction growing stronger every year that there was no other protection for the honest voter. Mr. Price con tended that so far from the ballot being un-Eng lish, it was essentially an English institution. GREENWICH.—The only candidates who are at present in the field are General Codringt ar and Mr. Montague Chambers, Q.C., the late members, both of whom have issued addresses offering themselves for re-election. A ['placard has, however, appeared requesting the electors not to promise their votes, as a " thoroughly Liberal" caudidateiwill shortly solicit their suffrages. Yesterday, M e , M. Cham bers was engaged in an active personal canvass of the electors of Greenwich, but as yet neither of the candidates has addressed any public meeting of the constituency. The nomination has been fixed for Friday, and will take fplace upon hustings, which are to be erected in Church-street. HANTS (SOUTH). —Au adjourned meeting of the Liberal committee was held at Southampton yes terday, at which the offer made by the Conserva tives to withdraw one of their candidates and sup port Sir J. C. J ervoise in combination with the other, was agreed to. It is generally understood that Mr. Dutton will be withdrawn and Lord H. Cholmondeley be re-elected, with Sir J. C. Jer voisa as his colleague. HAVERFORDWEST.—A hot contest is anticipated. Two candidates have issued their addresses. Mr. J. H. Phillipps and Mr. W. Rees. MONTGOMERYSHIRE.—NO opposition is expected Against the return of Col. Wynn. SALFORD —There are now t - wo Liberals in ;the field—Sir Elkanalt Armitage and Mr. William Massey. Mr. Massey issued his address yesterday and was introduced on the Manchester Exchange in the afternoon, 'where he was well-receive 1. SHEFFIELD. —The nomination is fixed for Friday, and the poll for Saturday. Mr. Roebuck's seat is on all hands admitted to be secure, but there will be a severe struggle for the second s=at -at between I%lr. Hadfield, the present member, and Mr. Overtind, Q.C., the Conservative-Palmenton'an candidate. Up to Friday ni g ht the result of the canvass, as stated by Messrs. Roebuck and Hadfield's commit tee, was, Roebuck, 2,457 • Hadfield,' 2,049 ; Ober end, 911. The returns of Mr. Overend's committee were, Overend, 2,200; Roebu'lc, 1,800 ; Hadfield, 1,400. As there are not less than 6,800 vo' era the returns of both committees must as yet be imper fect. Yesterday a large meeting of non-electors was held ir, Paradise-square, but in consequence of the inclemency of the weather it was adjourneid to the Town-ball. The greatest enthusiasm prev4iled in favour of Messrs. Roebuck and Hadfield. ! SIINDERLAND.—The ultra-Liberal party seem • de termined to spare no effort to unseat Mr. FenvOck, in order that thiir candidate, Mr. Walters, may be returned. YORKSHIRE (NORTH RIDING). —The Hon. 0. Duncombe addressed the electors of the Nprth Riding at Leyburn on Friday. He defended his vote on the Chinese question, and denied tl4. fact of any coalition hav;n,o; been effected to overturn the Palmerston Cabinet, to which he acknowledged the country to be deeply indebted. The coittest promises to be a very severe one. Naval and Military Intelligence. The General Commanding-in-Chief visited Pbrts mouth yesterday to inspect the troops abo 't to i o embark from that garrison for China. His yal Highness was attended by Colonel W. F. For ter, K.H., Deputy Adjutant-General to the Forces; Colonel the Hon. A. Gordon, C. 8., Deputy Quar termaster-General to the Forces •, Brevet.Lieute nant-Colonel J. W. Reynolds, Deputy Assistant Adjutant-General to the Forces, Lieut.-Colonel Lord Burghersh, C. 8., of the Coldstream Guixds, Aide-de-Camp to his oyal Highness. •The Com mander-in-Chief was received at the Portsmbuth station at eleven o'clock by Major-General Breton, commanding the South West District, Lieutetiant- Colonel Wright,.

Chargers for the Duke of Coaihridge and Staff were provide I by Major General Breton, who conducted his Royal Highness to the dockyard to inspect the Transit troop-ship, about to convoy a part of the 90!li Foot to China. The Duke was received at the dockyard by Vice-Admiral Sir George Seymour, the Com mander-in-Chief ; Rear-Admiral Superintendent Martin, and the dockyard staff, and conducted over the Transit, having n - iinut ly inspected which, fthey proceeded to Soutlisea-common to inspectthe troops. All field officers in the garrisons were on parade, except Lieutenant-Colonel Bell of the 23d ; the was kept by Royal Marines and Artillery, and the esplanade gaily decorated with flags. There were several thousands of spectators on the ground to view the inspection of the troops, which com- prised 2 field ()lacers, 7 captains, 26 'subalterns, 7 staff, 47 serjeants, 22 drummers, &c., and 783 rank and file ofßoyal the 23d Welsh Fusilier] • 4 field officers, 10 captains, 26 subalterns, 5 staff, 50 serjeants, 18 drummers, &c., and 812 rank and file of the 82d Foot ; 4 field officers, 11. captains, 30 subalterns, 7 staff, 59 serjeants, 22 drummers, &c., and 847 rank and file of the 90th Light In fantry,—total 2,442. On arriving on the ground the Duke was received with a general salute, and then Major-General Breton put the trcops into r - view order, when they went through all the evo lutions incidental to an official inspection, or 'field day, except firing. At the conclusion of the move ments the troops formed hollow square, from the centre of which the Duke addressed them, express ing his high admiration of the eminently efficient manner in which they had performol the various manoeuvres, the precision of their movements, and their soldierly front, proving themselves capable of adding to the fame of their several regiments and the glory of British arms wherever they might be engaged. The bands played the national an them, and the Royal cortege left the field for the Government House, whore the Duke of Cambridge and staff were entertained at luncheon by Major- General Breton, the governor of the garrison ; commanding officers of regiments, Colonel Kennedy, Captain Sundewal, of the Prussian ship Thetis, and staff, and the staff of Major-General Breton were also invited. After the repast his Royal Highness was escorted by Major-General Breton to Anglesey Barracks, Portsea, which were minutely inspected, also the new barracks adjacent for married soldiers, which occupied until half-past four, when the Duke and stiff took the train at the Landport station, and left for London by the 4.25 train of the South• Western Railway, having previously expressed to Major-General Breton his satisfaction at the result of his inspection. Yesterday morning a. troop and two detachments of the 2d Dragoon Guards, numbering 100 horses and men of all ranks, arrived at Chatham from Dublin, under orders to proceed to Canterbury, where the 2d Dragoon Guards will relieve the 11th Hussars, removed to Hounslow Barracks. The mounted detachment was under the command of Captain E. R. Keene, with Lieutenant 0. F. C. Bridgeman, and Lieutenant M. J. B. Dyne. The following officers at Chatham garrison have completed a course of instruction in the Enfie'd rifle under Captain W. Nott, 83d Regiment, previ ou4y to embarking for India to join the service companies of their respective regiments :—Captain H. J. Robertson, 60th Rifles ; Ensign H. M. Caine, and Ensign L. W. Desborough, 27th Ennis killens ; Ensign G. C. Sidebottom, 53d Regiment ; and Ensign F. Pavy, 74th Highlanders. Yesterday upwards of 120 troops belonging to the Provisional battalion at Chatham, with eight offi cers, were marched from Chatham barracks to the fortification near Prince Henry's bastion, for the purpose of going through a course of escalading in structions with the troops of tie Royal Engineers. It is intended to have the whole of the non-commis sioned officers and men of the regiments stationed at Chatham instructed in escalading operations during the ensuing summer. The regulations for the ordina,y summa drills were on Saturday issued to the co =landing offi cers of battalions at Woolwich, withdrawing the orders for the country march, which has taken place on Mondays during winter, and. substituting the usual field drills. The common, ,consequently, yesterday morning presented a. scene of much at traction. Eight divisions of the Royal Marine forces, accompanied by their respective otklcers, and attended by the regimental band, were drawn out, under the command of Colonel Stransham, C. 8., second commandant of the Marine garrison at Wool wich, and after marching past they were? put. through a series of battalion movements and iigtrt manoeuvres, and thrown out in skirmishing orde r over the field. The whole of the Royal Ar'&illery recruits were likewise drawn out in review circler, and went through the usual routine of field iaxer cises, firing volleys of musketry, &c. The four companies of Artillery, under o r&ers for China, were yesterday morning inspect e d ,at Woolwich by Colonel RAldinge, mting corAina-Vi atar-Admiral the Hon. Sir Richard Saunders Dun , las, K. C. 8., left the Duke of Vtiroilingtm, 131, at•Spithead ye,terday afterneon about two o'clock f)r the shore, having taken leave of the officers and ship's company. The crew manned yards and cheered as their pliant ani respected chief de parted. His flag was struck last evening at sun set, and the ship has discharged her powder, &c., preparatory to going into harbour to he paid off. The following appointments have been made at the Admiralty : Lieut. John Arkwright, to be agent in chart of mails in contract steamers ; E. H. Allfrey, F. C. Vincent, and P. C. M. de Mimes, midshipmen, to the Furious ; J. W. P. Harney and F. Hayter, naval cadets, to the Furious ; W. M. Lang, naval cadet, to the Royal Albert, for disposal ; James M. Share, master, to the Belleisle ; H. G. Thom sett, master, to the Melville ; James H. Lawrence, master, to the Cuckoo ; Henry G. Swainson, second master, to the Algerine ; and Robert Clarke, sur geon-superintendent, to the Agra convict ship. MALTA, MA.Bog 18. Ller Majesty's ship Cressy returned on the 12th, having carried away her maiu-yard ; she left the Majestic bea,t;ng against an adverse gale. The Cressy repaired her damages and sailed for England on the 15th. On the 11th, during a gale, a fishing boat with six Maltese was blown off the island ; they were seen from the signal tower, distant three miles. Her Majesty's ship Shearwater was rent out a little after three o'clock p.m. to pick them up, but returned at about nine unsuccessful, the commander stating it was, he believed, impossible for, any boat to live in such a sea. Fortunately, however, they were picked up next morning at two o'clock a.m., by the barque Syria,• Capt. Lane, 40 miles S.E of the island. It blew very Irsrd all through the Mediterranean, and many vessels had to put back, among tbem the steamer Powerful, which ran back to Athens for shelter. She arrived at Malta yesterday. Her Majesty's ship Magicienne is to leave for the Pacific on Mon-. day next. Her Majesty's ship Ariel is now sta tioned at the Piraaus. Her Majesty's ship Royal Albert was to leave Constantinople on the 24th, calling at Smyrna and Athena on her root() to Malta. Extraordinary high prices continue at Malta. Bread, 2d. the pound of 14 ounces ; meat, Bd. ; and yet we are surrounded by countries teeming with all the necessaries of lifo. The poor Maltese a►re suffering fearfully through the dearness of pro visions ; they work very cheap: There is talk of sending some of the regiments away, to relieve the poor, but it would have a very contrary effect, for it is by the money spent by the navy and army that the poor are enabled to live. THE BRITISH MINISTER'S A DDRESS TO THE ENGLISH . TROOPS ON THEIR DEPARTURE FROM GREECE. (Prone a Correspondent of the Morning Post.) ATHENS, MARCH 11. As y u are already aware, the Anglo-French troops have now ltft us, and the Government of King Otl.o, which complained so much about the humiliation which the presence of this force crest ed, is now free to put its plans into execution, The Court journal already advocates the destruction of the constitution, and the Court wants to disperse the Senate as a preliminary step. But this cannot be done legally, and the King is not sure of his game. We all regret the departure of the Anglo-French forces for personal motives, but not for political reasons. The King and his Government now stand alone, face to face with the people, and grave re sults will occur if his Majesty attempts to put ix practice his anti-constiutional wishes. Everything at present is quiet, and we haven° news worth re ing. During the occupation Mr. Wyse, her Britannic Majesty's representative, has had a very difficult task to perform, and he has accomplished it with dignity and h inour. Like the French authorities, he kept clear of the intrigues of the Court. It is a remarkable fact that neither the French nor British officers made their conge at. Court before leaving. The following is the address of Mr. Wyse to the British forces on their de parture : "Officers and Men of the 91st,—I have witnessed your evolutions to-day with the satisfaction which every one must always feel in seeing the exercises of British troops, amongst whom I need not say your regime►.t holds a distinguished place for efficiency and di-cip!ine. But you have other claims to praise of a special nature A British force bas ndw occupied, in conjunction with their French allies, this country for nearly three years — Lot invited, and yet not in the territory of an enemy — a difficult and often a very delicate position, requiring much firmness and ciicurnspection. Both these quali ties you have equally exhibited. You and the regiments which have preceded you have successfully accomplished the ta-k foe which you were sent here, and you have accomplished it in the manner in which brave men would naturally have accomplished it. Whatever may have bee❑ the misapprehensions with which you were received, you have vanquished them, and won, by pure force of good conduct and respect for others, the esteem and regard of the most reluot.ant. You have met from the inhabitants many acts of kindness and good will, and in return I am as proud as yourselves to say that not a single complaint has reached me of wrong done to person or property, or of any act which, between you and the inhabitants, could produce dissension or even disturbance. To this praise, high and deserved as it is, I have to add another. You landed here not clone. You came with our French allies by your side. With them, I need not say, you have lived, as well as those who went before you, as brothers. Your remembrance of the time you have passed together must be oneof continued harmony ' and mutual good feeling, without a word or deed for a single day to interrupt it. In a word, the occupation of Greece stands, I believe, unexampled in the history of oc cupations. It is an instructive example and lesson to all within its influence. But as we are now soon about to part, I cannot take leave of you without pain as well as pleasure. I have only to add my sincere wishes thatyou may continue to add to the hon-Airs you have already acquired, and maintain everywhere, as here, that highest boast of the British soldier—respect for the law and consideration for others. May you •:er be united, as you now are, with our French friends, so worthily represented around me—(Admiral Count Bouet WillAwnea, M. Mercier, I and others of the French military and naval services and the French Legation, were presen , ); and as you have been all this time but one camp, as we of the civil ser f vice have been but one legation, may you keep for years yet to Caine this union, so fortunate for all, indissoluble.

FRIGHTFUL DEATH OF A GENTLEIAN AT CHARING CROSS.— Yesterday afternoon information was for war ed to the coroner for Westminster of a most frightful occur rence at Charing-cross. It seems that an elderly gentle :nen was waiting near the Duke of Northumberland's for a Clapham omnibus, when a Westminster omnibn-, that had been taking up and setting down passengers, suddenly started to proceed down Parliament-streeta just at the same moment as the unfortunate deceased stepped off th• foot-path to cross the roar! immediate ly in front of the horses. The result was that, being do w n 0 r an incline, the driver was unable to pull up,o rwuheels tunate man was instantly knocked down, and presenting a most shocking sPect3l° e but life via. passing over the abdomen, .squeezing oult.btbtielbeowboedlsy, was carried to Charing-cross extinct. The deceased is abc,ut Beare in a black H°9Pita -3 of age, with grey hair and small whiskers, was found on his person. Theinquest and to be owned. coat and waistcoat and grey trousers. An Anoswuino 6 Charing-cross Hospital for an lies f m at " the The committee of consultation appointed at - the January meeting of the Australian Agricultnral Company have just issued their report. It is *ell drawn up, and presents another remarkable illus tration of the way in which property at a &statics belonging to shareholders in England is habitually squandered, the directors at home being too nume rous, and too much occupied with their own pur suits to bestow the prompt and vigorous wateliful ness upon it which a private person would feats, be essential to safety. In the present case the company grant from a paid-up capital of 350,000 /., and a free from the Crown of 690,702 a cres of valuable ?and in a flourishing colony, and yet it was found from the last report of the directors that, instead ;of a profit for the year, there had been an actual loss of several thousand pounds. The stock of horses, once famous, and obtained at a heavy outlay, has been allowed to become deteriorated and coraparatiiely worthless. The merino sheep, which represent in the books 130,0001., are now estimated at 5,0111.; of the cattle large numbers have been irretrievably lost, owing to their not having been mustered since 1848 ; t'te correspondence has been neglected, 43 de‘patches from the directors on this side being al lowed t t remain without acknowledgment at one time ; the annual accounts have not been trans mitted until after the lapse of nearly a year; and speculative shipments from the company's coal mines, involving a loss of 5,4001., have - been made without authority, and in the face of orders to the contrary. It also appears that the accounts in the colony have never - eeeu audited, an i that laego sums have been wasted in road-making. In this state of affairs the only satisfaction is that the pro perty of the company is now under the care of a now superintendent, Mr. Hodgson, who is to act with a. committee of advice in Sydney, while the direitors have also sent out t j the colony an accountant ap peinted by themselves. The committee concur in the expediency of suppressing the sheep eAablish ments on the Port Stephens estate, and insist thtt this step should be followed by the dismissal of all unnecessary hands. They also approve the plan conternplaVd by the dire aof letting the New castle collieriettwen lease. ileether expenditure by the c tinpany on public works, such as should be left to the local government, is discowitenanced, and, although with the extension of railway-, the deposits of iron ore on the Port Stephens estate may become so valuable as to render desirable the expenditure of 33,0001. upon a tramway, the com mittee urge that this should in no case be ent-red upon enless the mines shall be previously let on lease at an adequate rental. The committee complain of the throwing away of large sums in applications for acts of Parliament, one of which is at present in progress at an anticipated cost of 1,000 i., an d suggest that by coming under the Limited Lia bili7 Act the company could obtain a much better ,position. A reduc'ion is urged in the office ex penses in London, and . Mr. Coleman, the ac countant, has been employed to franie a. system for the company's accounts. With strict economy and rigid management for the future, although only meagre dividends can be hoped for at present, the committee, looking at the position of the vast tract of property possessed, are disposed to believe that the- great expectations at one time formed of the undertaking may yet ultimately be realised. Finally, it is necessary to remark that they atribute the disasters lately sustained to the enfltness of Captain M. F. Brownrigg, who was named superintendent in 1852, and the want of promptitude in the directors in ordering his suspen sion. The appointment seems to have been such as too commonly characterise our public companies, shareholders being led either by the private bias of directors, or the sanguine representations of candidates who will promise anything, to trust their interests without control in the hands of people whose past history should have been a warning. The directors, it is stated, consider the character of Capt. Brownrigg for honour and integrity uuim peached, but "it appears," the committee observe, "among other things, that he had some time pre vious to his appointment failed in business and compounded with his creditors." They charge the board, therefore, with a grave error in having made the nomination and impress upon the shareh o ld ers that "no individual should hereafter be appointed to the responsible office of presiding over their af fairs who has proved himself incompetent to manage his own." GRAND FANCY BALL IN PARIS. A splendid fancy ball was given on Friday night by M. Fould, Minister of State, on the occasion of the Mi-Careme. The saloons were brilliantly illu minated, and decorated wi'h the choicest flowers ; and a long gallery sep troting them from the sup per room was hung throughout with sky-blue s;lk. At about 11 the Emperor and Empress arrived, at tired in black dominoes. The Emperor kept his muck on all the time he stayed; but the Empress, to whom a small saloon had been reserved, so..n withdrew 'o it to change her costume, and returned to the ball-room dressed as a Persian lady, a pic turesque c , stume, consisting of a long garment of thick silk gauze, striped white and blue, without crinoline, and covering the whole person f r o m th e neck to the feet. The head-dress consisted of a kind of white cashmere veil, entirely concealing the face, with the exception of a square opening left for the eyes, but protected by silk netting. Tho Princess Mathilde had her hair powdered, and her shoulders covered with a short cloak and hood. Prince Napoleon, Marshals Pelissier, Canroberr, Miignan,Vaillant, and Bosquet, the minister&ambas sadors, and great dignitaries were all in domino. M. Fould was dressed in black, with an open domino. Madame Fould was attired in a rich costume as Mary Stuart ; Lady Cowley had assumed the cha racter of Mary Queen of England ; the Countess de Serrano wore a charming Audalusian black and. rose-coloured costume, richly embroidered ; the Countess de Castiglioue was dressed as a Norweg'an countrywoman ; the Marquis de Brigode had one of the most splendid costumes at the ball, - being dressed as Juno, after the fashion of the ballets of Luis XIV., with peacock feathers on her head, the bOdy of the dress being blue velvet fringed with gold, a short frock of cloth of silver, and blue vel vet buskins with gold embroidery. Madame Mag nan wore a riding-dress copied from a painting of Lancret's ; Madame de Barachin, her sister, was dressed as Marie-Antoinette ; the Princess Calli maki wore a . cur'ous dress of the middle ages, with a kind of ruff. covering the back and protrud.ng over the shoulders. Among the gentlemen the most remarkable costumes were those of Count de Nieuwerkerke, dressed as an Ojibbeway Indian ; M. Olympe Aguado, as a Byzantine prince of the 13111 century ; and of M. de Heckeeren, as a Hungarian. Prince Dauilo and suite appeared in their rich na tional costumes. A gentleman whose name did not transpire was accoutred in complete armour of the time of the Crusaders. Supper was served up at half-past one, and the cotillon was danced after supper. Their Majesties did not dance, but stayed until three o'clock. MONEY-OEDER OFFICES.- GENERLL POST-OFFICE, March 23. -On the Ist of April the following alterations will be made :-Englind-1.
