No sooner have we settled the Persian war than a revolt which had been spreading like smouldering ashes among the Native Indian Army has at length suddenly burst into a flame. Three native regiments, one of cavalry, j Dined with two of infantry, at Meerut, broke out into open mutiny, but were speedily dispersed by the European troops. The mutineers, however, fled in the direction of Delhi, the ancient capital of the Great MOGUL, and were there joined by three other regiments of Native Infantry, the 38th, 54th and 74th. The suddenness of this im mediate fraternising plainly proves a previous con cert—a foregone conclusion of desperate conspiracy. So much so, that the mutineers not only pro ceeded to massacre all the Europeans within their reach, but they actually proclaimed the SON of the late Emperor of MOGUL, King. This was doing the thing in a bold as well as in a bloody spirit. But they shall have their day of reckoning before long if they have not had it already, for there is no safe compromise with treason, but death. The Government in India was actively engaged in devising plans for the immediate suppression of this fanatical outburst. But we suspect that they will have more work on their hands than they are sufficiently prepared for. We have little doubt that our wary friends the Russians are at the bottom of all this widely spreading insurrection. They and the Chinese work hand-in-hand for our destruction in the East ; and well do we deserve it for our German sycophancy to Russia and her intrigues. When Russia had done her utmost to humble us in her machinations on Turkey, and at length roused our real vengeance, for it was all but cat's paws at the beginning, under Lords ABERDEEN and RAGLAN, the most incompetent man that ever commanded an army—a general who never commanded a regiment in battle ! when Russia found at last that we were pre pared with gunboats, and all that could and would have humbled her—why, she worked upon our German weakness by Prussian guile, and so saved herself from destruction through the trea chery of those who betrayed the best interests of humanity and freedom for the faderland. Well, we have now our second reward blossom ing in bloody revolt among our Indian army. The Russians will never let us rest until India be wrested from our grasp, and then what hopes re_ main for the future ? Why every German slave, and other slaves nearer home, would rise in savage delight and conspire toward the downfall of the only free country in the world, and their hatred would be but more intensely quickened by their avarice to clutch our gold and treasures ! Even old BLUCHER, the repre sentative of our friend and a'ly, Prussia, while riding along the Strand, after the Battle of Waterloo, exclaimed to his wondering friends, as they looked at our well-stored shops—" Mine Got ! what a City for to sack I" Yes, if that was the feeling of our friends, what must that be which actuates the hearts of our enemies ? That we must look to ouselve7, and trust to ourselves, in this outbreak in India, and that with promptitude and stern decision, there can be no doubt. It has come to "do or die " —and do we must without hesitation or doubt. There is a screw loose somewhere in our management, and it must and shall be set to rights firmly and promptly. There is no halfway-house ou the bloody road of rebellion—the journey may be long and rugged, but it must be quickly trod, and with a vengeance and strength that will make the very dust of our advance testify to the ear nestness of our speed. There is nothing to fear, but there is much to lament. Let us be wiser iu future. Notwithstanding its bullionist tendencies, the Times occasionally makes very awkward admiss sion., which completely upset the arguments of the currency qu4cks of the Mercator, or Lord OVERSTONE school. In October, 1855, it candidly confessed, that so far as the internal corn nue° of the country was concerned, a deposit of Govern ment Stock, or the fact that the notes were re ceivable in payment of taxes, would abundant!y suffice, without the deposit of a single ounce of gold ! It yesterday went even further. After detailing some of the points insisted on by mone tary reformers, it adds—" To the astonishment, perhaps, of those by whom they are brought for ward, the answer, even in the Times, must be, that they are indisputable. There ought to be no legal restrictions whatever on the issue of notes I If this is what is meant by Free-trade in money, the wishes of the advocAtes of that principle might at once be granted. In strict consistency every man should be at liberty t 3 make what promises he pleases, leaving the public also at liberty to pl see faith in them, or otherwise at their own dis cretion ?" If this be so, ca lit qmstio. The act of 1844, and, so far as Scotland and Ireland are concerned, that of 1845 cannot be supported for a single moment. They constitute a number of restric tions on banking, tying down certain establish ments existing at the time of these acts, to certain fixed issues, and preventing any other banks from being created with powers of issue to any the most trifling extent—no matter how un exceptionable may be the securities which they are prepared to offer ! It never was for a moment contemplated that such notes should be made "a legal tender !" None but those of the Bank of England possessed that privilege, and it was merely to a limited ex tent, not being in force at the offices of the Bink itself, or its branches. It was merely for public convenience, that these notes were made legal tenders, that vexatious refusals might not be made by litigious parties for the mere sake of creating costs. The credit of the Old Lady for all domestic purposes has always been perfect. No One would refuse to accept payment in " the worthless rags" which she issued. And we ven t° Sa y that currency reformers will gladly accept a compromise, by which the legal tender may be abolished, provided a power of unlimited issue be conferred on the Bank itself ) and all private es.- tablishmeuts, .who shall deposit satisfacto r y ty for the a mount which they may think proper put into c i rcu l ation, beyond the fixed securi t issues now permitted. It would be a very unnecessary formality to stamp notes with the words " net a legal tender," r LO N DON, SATURDAY fur no one coull for a moment be deceived by the notion that such was tbe case. It might have an invi dious appearance, but it would have no effect in one out of every thousand-transactions. It would be a mere work of supererogation. The other alter native &hided to by the Times, viz., that " a legal tender" should be prominently affi'ed on all Bank of England notes, is unexceptionable ; in fact, there is no reason why a memorandum stating the actual law on the subject may not be affixed at the mere will and pleasure of the Directors ! We should greatly prefer that there should be no " legal tender" but with purely national notes issued under the authority of Parliament, and re ceivable by every tax collector. These notes be ing based on public credit, and guaranteed not only by the total amount of property in the bands of every British subject, but even by a mortgage of their labour, would be placed beyond the possi bility of the faintest breath' of suspicion. It would be the interest and duty of every tax payer to maintain their value unimpaired, and any run would at once be suppressed by the united action of the people. The Bank of England notes would then go on credit, like those of all other establishments ; and we believe that they would seldom, if ever, bo rejected, unless under very peculiar circumstances indeed. But what does the Times mean by the asser tion, that "14,000,0001 , or thereabout!,'which is the issue allowed to the Bank, has been clearly as certained to be the limit to which a currency based merely on securities can be carried, with the certainty that its par value, in the Money Market will bo maintained !" We join issue with the Times as to this extraordinary statement, in every possible way. There is not a particle of evidence in favour of the amount thus arbitrarily selected. , And it is quite clear that if it were the right sum in 1844, it must be totally inadequate in 1857, when the population has increased, and commercial transactions have been enhanced in a still larger ratio. We find from the " NEWMARCH tables," constructed from data supplied by Mr. J. G. HUBBARD, formerly Gover nor of the Bank of England, that ever since 1851 the notes in the hands of the public—or "out standing circulation," have increased on an aver age by no less than 4,000,000/. sterling. This sum has consequently been unduly abstracted from the Bank reserve. If, then, 14,000,0001. could be safely issued in 1851, it is manifest that 18,000,000/. might be issued with equal safety in 1857. The natural expan sion of trade has absorbed a much larger propor tion of the circulating medium, as may be easily conceived from the simple and indisputable fact, that the declared value of our exports has in creased since 1848 by more than 125 per cent., or from 51,000,0001. to 120,000,0001. sterling. So far for the propriety of retaining the abitrary standard selected in 1844. But as to the other part of the statement that "it is capable of demonstration that under no imaginable contingencies can the exchangeable value of the issues of the Bank be for a moment jeopardised," ova repeat what we have already proved—on the 14th March last, from unexcep tionable evidence, that the Bank might have been compelled to suspend payment of its notes, while nearly 8,000,000/. of useless bullion was stored in its coffers, and that such would have been the case on the 23d October, 1847, when the notes and bullion, not only for the parent establishment, but all its branches, amounted to less than two millions, while the deposits of the London bankers alot_e, which would have been withdrawn at a moment's notice, but for the virtual suspension of the Act by the Government letter, exceeded that s:ina, and that of the general pub lic was sevenfold the amount. In fact, the Go vernor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank admitted, in, their evidence, that the Bask must have el2sed if more than 1,600,000/. had been demanded. We have thus pointed out the fallacy of the arguments by which the Leviathan attempts to sustain the re strictions. But as "coming events cast their shadows before," its admissions may be accepted as auspicious omens cf important changes being inaugurated in the unwise and impolitic law, that has paralysed British industry, and frequently re duced merchants, manufacturers, and traders, to the verge of ruin. COURT CIRCULAR. Cowell. The Ministers' Money Bill has passed through the Lords, and that obnoxious impost will now, within a few days, be interred in a dishonoured grave. The Earl of DERBY is entitled to great credit for the manly and straightforward course he pursued. Having taken the sense of a very full house on a former occasion, and finding the views of the majority adverse to those which he so ally and eloquently advocated, he bowed to the deci sion, and withdrew from all further opposition to the measure. He might have offired a vexatious and factious resistance to its progress. He might have occasioned consi derable loss of time ; but perceiving that it wits condemned by both Houses, he very properly withdrew from the contest, and has thus entitled himself to the thanks of the cornmunty at large. We may now congratulate Mr. Commissioner MURPHY and Mr. FAGAN, whose names will over remain associated with the bill, on the important and felicitous result of their agitation. We may congratulate the people of Ireland, of all shades and varieties of religious opinion, on this fertile source of discord—this social nuisance—being for ever abolished. A flagrant grievance has been virtually removed, and, if nothing clse were effected, the Session of 185'r would not bo alto gether unproductive of sound and wholesome le gislation. Her Majesty quitted Buckingham Palace with the Royal cortege at a quartetbefore 10 o'cl)ck yester day morning, in order to distribute the Victoria Cross in Hyde-park. The Royal Procession left the garden entrance in the following order : Prince Consort, Her Majesty Prince Frederick The QUEEN, William of Prussia. Lady Churchill. Prince of Wales. Lady Codrington, Prince Alfred, Col. F. IL Seymour. Baron do Moltke. Lieutenant Her Majesty, the Prince Consort, and the remain der of the above were on horseback, and, on reach ing Constitution-hill, were joined by the carriage pro cession, which had been formed in the quadrangle of the Palace, and which consisted of : An open carriage and four, conveying their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent, the Duchess of Cam bridge, the Princess Royal and the Princess Alice. An open carriage and four, conveying their Royal Highnesses the Princesses Helena and Louina, and the Princess Mary of Cambridge ; and the Marchioness of Ely, Lady in waiting. An open carriage and four, conveying their Royal Highnesses Prince Arthur and Prince Leopold, Lady Caroline Barrington, Lady Superintendent ; and body Augusta Bruce, Lady in waiting to the Duchess of Kent. An open carriage and four, conveying his Serene Highness the Prince of Leiningen, Lady Geraldine Somerset, Lady in waiting to the Duchess of Cambridge ; and the Hon. Eleanor Stanley and the Hon. Lluisa, Gordon, Maids of Honour in waiting. An open carriage and four, conveying Lord do Tably, Lord in Waiting ; Liout -Colonel P. Cavendish, Groom in waiting ; CS. Sir G. Couper, Equerry in waiting to the Duchess of Kent, and Major Baron Knesebeck, Eqerry in waiting to the Duchess of Cambridge. Lord A. Paget, Clerk Marshall ; Major-General the Hon. C. Grey, and Lord C. Fitzroy, Equerries to the Queen; and Capt. Du Plat, Equerry to the Prince Con sort, were in attendance on horseback. A detachment of the Royal Horse Guards formed the escort of the Queer,. Her Majesty returned from the distribution about a quarter before 12 o'clock. The Queen, with Prince Arthur and the Princess Louisa, attended by the Hon. Louisa Gordon, took a drive in the afcerneon in an open carriage and four. Lord Alfred Paget and Major-General the e ' Hon. C. Grey attended on horseback. The Prince Consort, the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, Prince Alfred, the Princess Alice and Prince Frederick William of Prussia, wi:h Lady Caroline Bar rington, the Hon. Eleanor Stanley, Colonel F. H. Seymour, and Baron Moltke, drove out in carriages in the afternoon. The Queen had a - dinner party in the evening. The company included her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, her Royal Highness the Princess Royal, his Royal Highness Prince Frederick William of Prussia, his Highness the Maharajah Duleep Singh, the Duke of Newcastle and Lady Susan Pelham Clinton, Marquis and Marchioness of Abercorn, LiVy Augusta Bruce, the Cauntess Cowley, Lord and Lady Lyndhurst, the Dean of Windsor, and the Hi - in. Mrs. Wellesley, Major- General Sir G. Wetherall, Sir John Login, and Baron Moltke. Du&LIN, Friday.—Her Gracious Majesty is expected at Cork and Killarney in the course of the summer. A Cork paper states the grounds for the report current in that city. The course taken by the R )yal yacht in her recent visit to Queenstown and Bantry Bay, and the soundings she has made, have given rise to the belief that her Majesty purposes visiting Cork and Killarney this summer, The yacht ran up Bantry Bay and in between the islands to Glengariff, closely examining the locality. BALL AT THE TURKISH EMBASSY.—Last night Madame Musurus gave a ball at the Turkish Embassy in Bryan stoc-eqeare, which was attended by a brilliant circle, exceeding 500 personages of rank, among whom were some of the leading generals and officers who took part in the late war in the East. All the preparations for the fete were complete, the rooms being effulgently lighted and ornamented by beautiful flowers. A sumptuous supper awaited the company at one o'clock. Refresh ments wore supplied in two rooms throughout, the night. It was close on one o'clock when the carriages discon tinued to set down company. THE NEW BATCH OF QUEEN'S COUNSEL,—We under stand that considerable dissatisfaction exists among the junior equity ,bar on account of the new batch of Queen's Counsel being confined exclusively to the c , m mon law bar. Two or three leading equity juniers are well known to desire, and to have made application to the L ird Chancellor with a view of obtaining, the honour of silk ; and it is generally thought that were his lordship to accede to their request, both the profession and the public would be gainers. A Lumber of pottery works have been established in the neighbourhood cf Poole, in DarsetsLire, for the manufacture of fire brick and drainpipes, and an archi tectural pottery has been established at Idamworthy, near the above-named town, where a more refined and artistic trade will be carried on. The plastic clays found in Branksea Island are found to be rich in alumina, and the erection of alum works was contemplated there, and has only been delayed in consequence of the embar rassments of Colonel Waugh, the owner of that island. SUICIDE BY Ansa•Nfe,i.—Yesterday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the London Hospital on the boiy Ru h, aged 40, who, when suffering fr deltri fe,72, tremens, purchmed a quarter of a ry.und of arsenic, and swallowed the larger portion of it. The arsenic was bought at the shop of Mr. nehlola, chemist, in Leman street, and the jury appended to their verdict of tempo rary insanity their opinion " that the conduct of Mr. Meldola, was highly reprehensible for selling arsenic no t-aim id and uncoloured, as required by the act of Parlia ment." THE TEMPLE GARDENS.,--Mr. S. Broome, the gar dener of the Temple Gardens, last year wrote to a con temporary showing the good effects produced upon the flowers under his care by the suppression of the smoke nuisance. He v.-as, however, told by some to wait till the present year, and then see if the gardens con tinued to improve, as it was asserted that last year was an unprecedented one for foliage all round London. Mr. Broome denied the statement, and the year 1857 has proved him to be correct, for at this moment he boa,ets of having 2,000 roses inEtead of 200—a circum stance not seen is the Temple gardens for years past. The whole of the garden p'ant., too, are gia:lually im proving in health and vigour —another proof of the beneficial results arising from the extinguishment of the great evil above referred to. INDUSTRIAL EXIIIBITION AT WARSAW. —The 1 tst Warsaw jlurna's contain accounts of the Exhibiti3n of Manufactures nowopen in that city.

The mayor and members of the corpora tion, attended by some of the leading scientific men of the town, were present, and some thousands of people were there to witness the uncovering of the memorial, which took place amidst great cheering. The st a t ue i s a sitting fi g ur e , corresponding with the one of Dr. Dalton, and is copied from the marble figure by Chan trey, in Westminster Abbey. [t was copied by Theed, and was cast by Messrs. Robinson and Cottlm, of Pimlico. Bninsu BENEFICENT INSTITUTION.—The anniversary festival of this list ful institution, the object of which is to allow inoomes 0f . 301. a year to the a idows and unmarried orphan daughters of clergymen, officers in the army and navy, and other persons who have moved is a superior station in society, took place last evening at the Lund.in Tavern. Mr. Sheriff Mechi, who was in the chair, pressed the claims of the society on the support of the public, and his appeal and that of other gentlemen pro duced a subscription of nearly 7001. in the course of the evening. A grand bazaar is to be held in support of the institution on Friday and Saturday, July 3 and 4, in the grounds of Westbourne.

Lennard, Bart., who died on Thursday morning at his town residence in Bryanstone-square, baying within a few months reached the extreme age of 96 years. He WaS the oldest living baronet of the United Kingdom. The deceased, who was created a baronet after the Union in 1801, was son and testamentary heir of the 17th Lord Dacre, whose sur name and arms he assumed by Sign manual. The late baronet was twice married—first, in 1787, to a daughter of the late Sir J. Aubyn ; and secondly, in 1833, to a daughter of the late Sir Walter Stirling, widow of Mr. Henry Dawkins Milligan.

Proclamation of a Mogul Prince. Mr. CAMERON.--Mr. Cameron, the late manager of the Royal Briti-h Bank, was brought up to the Judge's Chambers on Thursday, when an application was made On his behalf fer additional time, to enable bins to pro cure bail to meet the charges on which he has been re cently apprehended. Mr. Simpson, Field's assistant, the officer in whose custody he was brought to England, declined, however, the responsibility of the further charge ; on which the learned judge, Mr. Jug rle,stated that he must sign the commitment. Mr. tc o i f eae t m h E e prisoner e ron was ther eu po n t a k en by the tipetaff to the Queen's Prison. It should be mentioned that the bail re quired in the ca , e of Mr. Cameron is-24,000/.—viz., himself in 12,000/., with two securities for 6,000/. each. Eight thousand pounds was the sum demanded in the case of Mr. Macleod and the other directors. The cap ture of Mr. Cameron, we hear, was effected under rather peculiar circumstances, reflecting no small credit on the parson employed in tracking his movements. TRIESTE RAILWAY.—The section of the railway be tween Laybach and Trieste having been completed, a trial trip was made on it a few days ago.

MASSACRE OF ENGLISH AT DELHI. TRIESTE, FRIDAY. The steamer America arrived hereto-day, hav ing made the passage in 121 hours from Alexan- dria. The Veetis, with the Marseilles mail, left Alexandria on the evening of the 20th. The dates from India are—Bombay, May 27 ; Calcutta, May 18 ; Madras, May 25. The mutiny in the Bengal army had spread in a most alarming manner. At Meerut, the 11th. and 20th Regiments of Native Infantry had united with the 3d Light Cavalry in open revolt:. After some bloodshed they had been dispersed by European troops ; but they had fled to Delhi, where they were joined by the 38th, 54th, and 74th Native Infantry. Delhi was in possession of the mutineers, who had massacred almost all the Europeans without regard to age or sex, plundered the bank of 15 lacs of rupees, and proclaimed the son of the late Mogul Emperor as King. Disturbances had also broken out at Ferozee pore, but had been suppressed. The Rajah of Gwalior had placed his troops at the disposal of the British Government. Government was taking active measures to sup• press the revolt, and concentrating troops suffi cient to overwhelm the mutineers around Delhi. The 34th Native Infantry was disbanded on the 7th of May. Oude is tranquil. Troops from Ceylon have reached Calcuttl, and the native Princes are offering their contingents: The prospects of the coming coffee crops at Ceylon are good.

News from California to the 20th of May had been received at New York, but there was nothing important. From Oregon we learn that the Indians were again menacing hostilities, and it was generally believed that the Indian war would be recommenced as soon as the proper season arrived. There is no news from Grenada relative to the pending dispute with the United States. Mr. Bowlin had intimated that, being satisfied that no proposition would be made to him, he should leave Bogota on the 20th inst. for the United States. The British Macin tosh claim bad been settled.

A dvspatch from Boston of the 12th says that the ship Squardo, of Thomaston, ashore at Beaver Island, between Halifax and Cape Canso, will prove a total loss. Her keel is knocked out, and her rud der unhung. She is full of water, and has been stripped ; her burden IN as 1,100 tons ; she was built at Rockland, in 1855, and was valued at 27,000 dollars. She was in ballast from New York for the Gulf of St. Lawrence. She is insured for 9,000 dollars in Rockland, and 5,000 dollars in Thomaston, Maine. The case of the Sate of Ohio against the United States' authorities was being tried at Cincinnati on the 11th, and no decision was expected for some time. Contradictory reports had been received at New York rtspecting the invasion of Mexico. Nothing certain was known upon the subject. THE EMIGRATION BOARD.—This board consists now of only two commissioners, one with a salary of 1,2001., and the other with 1,0001. The third commissioner has recently been dispensed with, and a saving of 1,0001. a year thereby effected.—Civil Seniice Gazette. THE LATE MR. DOUGLAS JEREOLD.—Some strange misapprehensions prevail respecting the private affairs of the late Mr. Douglas Jerrold. It was posted on the pillars in our Exchange News-room, in a telegraphic message, that ho had left his family without a penny, and this statement was borrowed from the London papers of the day. The report originated, in the general, but absuri, notion that: a literary man is, necessarily, only one remove from a pauper ; and in the announce ment that Mr. Dickens, Mr. Thackeray, and other friends, had resolved to give a series of entertainments fer—it was alleged—the benefit of ,Mr. Jerrold's family. Mr. Dickens, however, simply intended to mark the respect which he and ail his friends entertain for the largely-gifted man on whom the grave bad prematurely closed, by promptly rai,,ing an acceptable memorial to his memory—nothing more. Mr. Jerrold was not only a hard-working man, but a prudent one. His life was insured for 2,5001., and his widow—instead of depend ing on sympathy cr charity—will have an income of about 6001. a year. His sons are in a position to add to, not diminish, the provision made for their admiralo!e mother, and the daughter has been placed in affluence by the thoughtful affection of her late father-in-law. Mr. Jerrold's family would have been pained by' the allusion to their domestic concerns, did they not know that the deceased was a public man, in whom every one took an interest, and that the mis apprehension to which we have referred proceeded from the honest admiration of gentlemen who would never willingly do aught that could even remotely hurt the feelings of the relatives of the man they loved while living, and mourn now that he is dead. Through life, Mr. Jerrold in the spirit of a noble independence, dreaded being dependent himself, or leaving his family dependent on any one ; and shortly before his death he had a serious conversation on this very-subject with his brother-in-law, Mr. Copeland, lessee of our Theatre Royal. Mr. Copeland sat by his bed when he died ; and a few days since, when the Liverpool Dramatic Society waited on him, to offer their services in nettin g u p an amateur play for the benefit of Mr. Jerr , faintly, Mr. Copeland said "No, his family need no such assistance, . and I cannot grant the theatre for any such purpose ; but if you wish to co-operate with Mr. Dickens in his direction, I can see no possible objection." These at e plain facts, and their publication is due to the memory of the man who is gone from us.—Liverpool Daily Novs. THE BALLOT MOTION. TEE ENROLLED PEATSIONI:7I?S. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. S'r,—A report having been spread that the ques tion of the ballot is to be postponed over Tuesday next, t t e 30th inst., I beg to state most explicitly that I hope be in my place on that evening for the purpose of taking the opinion of the House on its merits.—l am, &c. F. HENRY BERKELEY. of Commons, &me 26. SlR,—Observing in your columns of yesterday a state' ment, annexed to your leading article, which reflects on the efficiency and expense of the enrolled pensioners of the army, perhaps I may be excused, as an officer of that force, for offering the following ample and, I trivet, satisfactory contradiction of every assertion it contained. • So long as a statement of that kind was confined to the United Service Octzette, intended chiefly f.,r military readers, most of whom must have known the wilful in' correctness of its assertions, it seemed to require no notice ; but when it appears in so widely circulated a journal as yours, even though given merely on the authorty of a c)rrespondent, it cannot well be treated with the same silence. Your correspondent refers to the necessity for tbo inspection, by general officers, of this force with refer• ence to its efficiency ; not apparently being aware, that ever since its formation, it has been thus inspected bien nially by general officers, at all the large stations where. the great mass of the men are enrolled, and at the smaller stations by field officers, expressly deputed by them for the purpose, and that by each of these o fficers confidential reports are forwarded to the Horse Guards , on the fitne,s'of the men for garrison duty, teeir appea r ' ante, capacity for drill, and every other particular 00 which it is desirable that the Cotumander-in•Chief should be informed. Consequent on these reports, and on the inspections in each alternate year made by the War• office, the number of men to be enrolled at each station is determined. It augurs very little for your correspondent's know' ledge of the subject to which he professes to direct pub lic attention, not to be award of so simple a fact as this, nor that this very General officer, on whom he proposed to devolve the inquiry, has an opportunity of seeing the force in each district on all occasions when they are out under arms, and, I believe, has at several times, seen them. In fact, during the period that the Enrolled Pensioners are under arms, either for exercise or in aid of the Civil Power, they are, by the Enrolment Act, placed under the superior officers of the army, precisely in the same way as any other part of the forces. There is no diffi culty in understanding, what your correspondent is pleased to term, their civil-military character, except , perhaps, by one of his limited comprehension ; they are exactly, in this respect, like the Militia, viz., civilians when not called out under arms, and soldiers whe n armed. Their officers and sergeants, on permanent 1:1Y being, like the staff of the militia, always under martial law. The expense of the whole of this force, which amou nts to 16,000 men, or about 20 battalions, is less than t hat of one permanently kept up, and before consider in g whether this is too much, it may be as well to inq uire into the accuracy of the statement made—and that " emphatically " too—by your correspondent, that this most expensive force has not, by a single man, relie ved the severe pressure on onr active army. Is your correspondent so entirely ignorant of the mill' tary arrangements of the l a st few years WI no t to be aware that during most of the time since Weste rn Australia became a convict station, the whole of t he , millary duties there have been performed by seve ra ; hundreds of Pensioners—that for several years all the Guards, sent out iu charge of convicts, have been corn- posed of Pensioners, and that this duty still continued to be performed by them—that for the first two years after the discovery of gold in Victoria, the military duty there was entirely performed by these men--that Upper Canada, when suddenly denuded of troop s 1 : consequence of the last war, the whole of the duty done by enrolled pensioners, and a great portion e vv, t 1 still is so—that at Hudson's Bay a company, an d 111 4 . New Zealand a whole battalion were in like mane employed till the present year, when their seven Yellr engagement expired—thus obviating the necessity f o r sending regular troops to those remote regions? 4 . These facts would perhaps have been better know n your correspondent, but for the circumstance that all expenses connected with the employment of abroad are defrayed from the I.cal treasuries • so that With re' they did not appear in the army estimates. gard, however, to the value of such a provisional fare: at home, he has no excuse for not being better informal Will he inquire who took the coast-guard duties will some thousands of seamen were withdrawn from t h c t, duty and sent to the Baltic—who furnished' the guer at most of the dockyards, prison bulks, and over R.U., sian prisoners —who supplied some thousands o f drill and N. C. 0. for the militia staff when hastily etebojieu —who afforded trainers for the thousands of cavell horses sent to the seat of war ? Surely your corr.; pensioner! spondent must have spent the last two or three years I_ the cave of the Seven Sleepers, not to have been arre,,r.,e of these circumstances ; or has he an object for wilfully concealing them ? Hamity, in consequence of the rapid eonclusion o f the Crimean war, it did not become necessary to send all portion of there men abroad, but who that 10°I 4 back on that great struggle, and our feeble efforts in raising men to meet it, can doubt that, had it continued much longer, it would have been absolutely necessary to adopt the same course as during the Peninsular wa r, when 13 battalions of pensioners bad to be forme d for perrnenent garrison duty, of which several were seat to the colonies to set free troops of the line. Would, thee; the mol t rigid economist hesitate to acknowledge th e advantage of retaining these pensioners (the majority 011 whom are still between 35 and 50 years of age), in fu g recollection of their military traininie, so as to be alli g ready for any such emergency, particularly when t.„„, can be effected for the moderate expense at present tit currel for that object?

A letter from Bucharest of the 13th, in the National Gazette of Berlin, saps :—" The in ternational commission are now endeavouring to make up for lost time by having sittings of several hours every two days, at which Safet Effendi, the Turkish representative, presides. The drawing up of the instructions for the elections is not yet completed, and yesterday the director at the Secretary of State's office was summoned before the commission to give information on the subject. Every one is astonished that a question of such im portance should remain so long in suspense. The real cause of the delay is the irresolution of the Porte. The moment the firman of convocation was received the caimacan pointed out the difficul ties which existedrelative to domicile and to landed property, and demanded further instructions on the subject. The Porte replied that Safet Effendi would give the instructions required, but when he arrived he avoided doing •so. He went to Jassy, and on his return laid the affair before the commis sion, but no decision has yet been come to." DENMARK.

STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, June 26.—The improvomen"°f ticed on Tuesday, arising from the reduction ofi stocks and o•her causes, continues, and there is t steady demand for cloths of most descriptions so very full rates. The advance in cotton this week been been quite equal to that of the last and preceue 6 ' week's, being about the 16th of a penny on fair,v,P; lands, ana Id. per lb. on Mobile and Orleans• lv this advance manufacturers 'are not, of course, e Ck il a to keep pace, and all that can bo said in respect is that they are in a position to elu er- 0 rather better rates in some cases. Messrs. Georg Fraser, Son, and Co., in their circular of yesterdaY/ report the advanced quotations duringthe last f ou r ' weeks as follows :—" For 7-Bths printers, lid.

The finer kinds of Indian jaconots sP u ' mulls are, on the con t rar y, a little lower in pr ice than this time last month.
