THE MORNING CHRONICLE having, at the close of last year ' passed into the hrs.als of a new Proprietary, is now conducted under an entirely new management. During - nearly a Century THk, MORN - ECU CHRONICLE has been the steealfast advocate of Liberal principles and enlightened viers ; always readr to support the Statesman whose measures were calculated-to promote the general inter ests—never the tool of Party. Faithful to its old creed, considering judicious amelioration to be the best Conservatism, MORNING CHRONICLE earnestly supports our venerable Constitution in its essential principles—principles none the less imitortantin their .practical efficacy because brought intothiumenious concurrenee with th genius and tendencies of the - age. • . . Every department of thiskroiirrial has been remodled. Its Political Information is derived from unquestionable sources and whilst it keeps its readers conversant with all: important occurrences, political and-social, both at borne and abroad—the lighter, but'not unimportant, claims of Literature and Art are equally represented in its columns. The constant aim of the present Conductors of rtrE MORN ING CIIR.ONICLE is to snake it an organ of that:MCC amongst Statesmen and public men of all denominations; and whilst presenting a faithful reflex of the events and 'feelings of the day, not 4o lose sight of the permanent intereststnd prospec tive destinies of society. mwf THE ONLY FULL-SIZED.

PHIS well-established Daily Paper,—the first that was attempted in the Provinces,—is now, under a new proprietary, devoted to the interests of the great Conservative party. Its principles are those so forcibly expressed by the Earl of Derby, at the recent Liverpool Banquet, when he said, --" I speak of that Conservatism which is not obstructive, but which is the best promoter of safe and gradual social improve ment,--cd that Conservatism which, strenuously adhering to the old machinery of the Constitution, adapts from time to time the various parts of its mechanism to the real requirements and the real capacities of the age in which we live,—of that Con servatism which should give to all orders and degrees of men Within this realm their due weight, authority, and preponder ance,—of that Conservatism which loves the interests of the people at large but will not be led away by the nuts' denuncia tions of blustering demagogues, either to shrink at the voice of menace, or timidly to make concessions to large bodies of men for the purpose of obtaining a temporary popularity, when in our hearts we believe the concession of those coveted boons would be the worst injury we could iaflict upon the classes it is Sought to benefit." 'Such is the Conservatism of which the Northern Tisses is now 'the faithful and unEinching advocate and never, perhaps, was nere a moment-when a temperate and judicious apPlietition of the Daily Press to the espousal 4' its cause, and the Ilissemination of its principles, was capable of serving more beneficial purposes. Hitherto, the Daty Papers of Liverptcl have, one and all, been exclusively in the so-called Liberfa, that is, the Whig and Radical, interest. The Conservative cause has now got its representative, end its advocate, in the local Daily Press. It rests with•the Conservative party of Liverpool to decide with what effiCiency this their Daily organ of the Press shall be maintained. Its success has so far been cousiderabit , ,— the eirculatiox already secured is :large and increasing; it is about three times more than it was when it came into its Tre sent hands;----and if all who are COnservatives will only sup port it with their advertisenten,' , , and use their active influence to make it R profitable advertising medium, its prosperity, and therefore Its influence, will seen be powerfully strengthened and confirmed. The Late Derby Banquet csrnot but have aroused the Con servatives of Liverpool to a more active course of public duty ; and the obligation, in times like the present, to sustain a Daily Paper in their important interest, cannot fail to be acknow ledged, and ought therefore to be acted upon.

Hermel, of the French clipper Luzitano, by which the captain and crew of the Birkenhead, of Liverpool, were saved from impending death, has been reported to the French Government. The fact is more remarkable as a British vessel had previously passed near the Birken head, and, although her dangerous position was evident, the other ship continued on her voyage without afford ing any assistance. The following is the report made by Captain Hermel On the 24th November, about seven in the morning, during a violent gale, the wind blowing from the west, I perceived a ship at a short distance steering - badly, and endeavouring to move towards the south. I found that this vessel had lost all her masts but her lower ones. I immediately steered towards the vessel. When I was sufficiently near she hoisted the union flag reversed. The captain hailed me, and prayed me to take him and his crew on board, as his ship was about to founder. In fact, I saw that his deck was broken up, and that the sea was breaking over her on all aides. I lay to as close as possible to the ship in distress, and at half-pas'. eight I had the satisfaction to receive the crew, consisting of twenty-three men, on board. The captain told me his name was Edward Phelan, of Waterford, his ship, the Birkenhead, measured 883 tons, and belonged to M. J. Wilson, of Liverpool. He was on his passage from Quebec to Liverpool with a cargo of timber. The Birkenhead, being iu 45.40 north latitude and 40.20 west longitude from the meridian of Paris, sprung a leak, making five•feet of water an hour, the wind blowing fresh from the north-west. Finding that the water was gaining on the vessel, although all bands were employed at the pumps, the captain commanded a reef to be taken in the mizen sail. While this operation was going on the deck was burst up by the cargo, while the stern and the bows were seriously damaged by the shifting of the large logs of timber. In this critical position Captain Phelan cut away his upper masts, leaving only the lower ones, with which he expected to make the Azores, but he found it almost impossible to make the Birkenhead answer her helm. Thus 'the crew were exposed to the greatest danger for twelve days, until I met them, when they had made only eighty leagues. They had passed the northeri islands of the Azores, and I am convinced that Captain Phelan could not have made the island' of 'St. Michael, for the west and south-westerly winds *ere driving his ship to the east, although he was making every effort to steer to the' south. He was then 42.15 north latitude, and 32 west longitude. When I received the crew they were reduced to their last glass of water, and the small quantity of provisions which they bad saved from the sea was nearly exhausted. Moreover, the weather being extremely severe, the men suffered terribly from cold and damp. Six days before I fell in. with the Birkenhead, a ship of her nation passed close by, but the captain did not think proper to stop to assist his unfor tunate countrymen. A violent tempest arose from the south-west shortly after the crew arrived on board the Luzitano, and lasted for twelve hours. ,Captain Phelan is of opinion that his ship must have gone to pieces during the storm. RUSSIA AND THE POLITICS OF EUROPE. An article appears in the Liralide Russe ex plaining the policy to be observed by Russia respecting the questions which will form the sub jects of discussion by the Congress. It is as follows : "Let us examine what are the principal points to which the Congress will direct its inquiries. It would have been extremely useful in the month of April last, because it would have prevented a terrible loss of blood between two powerful and warlike nations. At present it has only to pronounce on facts accomplished previous to and since the war. The first question that presents itself is this—What Powers ought to be invited to take part in it? First, the Congress ought certainly to be composed of representatives from the five great powers. According to the principles laid down at the Congress of Vienna, no change should take place in Europe without the con sent of tire five powers. The Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle; -- of Laybach f and of Verona, which succeeded the Congress of Vienna, formed a species of tribunal for the other powers. The war between France and Spain for the re-establishment of Ferdinand VII. was not the result of that Congress. The kingdom of Greece was es tablished by three powers only. Belgium was separated from Holland by a conference of the great powers assembled in London. Again, is the month of April last, it was proposed to convoke the five great powers solely to decide on the fate of Italy. At present it is. determined to appeal to a Congress of all the powers who signed the treaty of Vienna, which treaty has under gone a change by the present situation of Italy and Naples. Rome and Sardinia will moreover be admitted. The approaching Congress will have first to settle the affairs of Central Italy. Is it necessary to re-establish the order of things which existed previous to the ar, or are the facts accomplished since the 29th April last to be acknowledged ? If the majority of the Powers adopt the first of these two alternatives the Congress must find means to execute the decree of the European Areopagus. Should the employment of force become necessary, to what Power will be entrusted the execution of the clause ? Above all, the Congress will have to enter on the question of right. The Congress of Zurich decided that the rights of the Grand Dukes are re served. England, on the contrary, maintains that the people have a right to choose their sovereign and the form of their government. That Power reminds the others, and that with some reason, that France, Sweden, and herself have already applied that principle. The Bourbons, the descendants of Gustavus Vasa, and the Stuarts, no longer reign in *se countries. She • main tains that Europe having already admitted that principle in Belgium and in Greece, can scarcely repudiate it in Central Italy. This will be the first danger for the Congress, because Austria, France, the Pope, and with. them Spain, Portugal, and Naples, will not fail to main tain that the rights of the dispossessed dynasties are sacred and immutable. But this is merely a historical question, while the rights of the Grand Dukes of Central Italy constitute a thorny question.. These sovereigns are connected with Austria by family ties and by treaties. Austria commenced the war in spite of the representations of all Europe; she should, consequently, endure the fate of war, and submit to all its consequences. Austria and France have resolved to restore the Grand Dukes, but they had not the right to do so without the consent of Europe. Not being permitted to proceed to an armed intervention, they have recourse to moral stimulantB and to persuasion to induce the people to re-place the dispossessed sovereigns on their thrones. All these proceedings hare as yet failed of success, and the solution of this question will be re ferred to the Congress. But the Congress, while con— firming the dynastic right, will find itself involved in great difficulties if it wishes to restore the dukes by force of arms. The influence of one power will carry with it others. War will break out again, and we declare that it will then become a war impassible to localise or to circumscribe. Such is the object of the deliberations of:, the approaching Congress. We rqeat the opinion we have frequently expressed, that the affairs of Italy are not the only ones which ought to occupy the Congress. Four years have elapsed since the conclusion of the. treaty of Paris. Has the object then promised been obtained ? Where is regenerated Turkey ? Has she - become a European power ? Has the persecution of the Christians ceased? Has Europe obtained guaran tees of tranquillity in that quarter ? Is fanaticism extinguished ? Can it ever be hoped that Christians and Mahomedans shall ever be equal before the law ?" LORD CANNING AT LUCKNOW._ The Viceroy's visit to the Oudean capital, says the Bombay. Standard, was a pageant on a scale of grandeur that occurs but rarely even in India, compared with the olden time. The interest attaching to it is mainly derivable from the fact that Lord Canning's presence in Lucknow set the seal, as it were, to the , final dethronement , . of the late dynasty. To the native snag- - nates who were present, this must have been the most significent feature of the durbar. They were there on compulsion, to see the embodiment of a rule that many amongst them hate, however unintelligently, and although before very long they might be constrained to admit that the inauguration of British power and sovereignty was the edge of the shadow of " good things to come." The "presents" were a very hollow affair, as all such matters are in the East —a lac on one side representing somewhere about _ a lac on the other. The most important event was the reception of the Talookdars by his Ex cellency on the 26th ult., when he delivered the following speech : Talookdars of Oude—l am glad to find myself in your country, and amongst you, and to have the opportu n ity of speaking to you i n the name of the Queen, your Sovereign. A year has not passed away since this pro vince was the seat of anarchy and war. The conduct of its people had been such that the Government was compelled to lay a heavy hand upon it. But peace and order are now restored to. every corner of Oude, and I am come to speak to you not of the past but of the future. You have, all of you who are here present, received yesterday the grants of those estates which the Government has restored to you. You will have seen by the terms of those grants, that the ancient `.talookdares system of Oude is revived and perpetuated. Be assured that so long as each one o f y ou is a loyal and faithful subject, and a just master, his right and dignity as a talookdar will be upheld by me, and by every representative of your Queen, and that no man shall disturb them. You will also have seen by those grants that the same rights are secured on the same conditions to your heirs for ever. Let this security be an encouragement to you to spend .your care, and time, and money, upon the improvement of your possessions. As the Government has been generous to you, so do you be generous to those who hold under you, down to the humblest tiller of the soil: Aid them, by advances of money and other indulgences, to increase the pro ductiveness of the land, and set them an example of P th Y em as , hereafterauArid teach o ceu order and obedience to your rulers. Let this same se - • curitv in your possessions encourage you 'to b r i ng up your sons and daughters in a manner befitti ng th e posi tionttohelocohkietofs the of Government as a father. Talookdars, I trust th at t h ere are none amongst you who are-so—infatuated- as to believ e th a t the Govern ment has had d es i gns against your religion. Even if e. there be any s u c h , I w ill not condescen d to repea t t h e o ud which Learnt they y will yourselves assurances which they have already received on this head. I . leave it to time, and experience, and their own senses, to dispel their perverse suspicions. Eat for their own sakes I warn them nct be led into acts of opposition or distrust towards the Govern- ment, by the false tales of designing men. Lastly, Ta lookdars, whenever in any matter you have doubts to be ' 11 ; 1 resolved, or wishes to make known, address yourselves to the Chief Commissioner. lie will tell you the truth sr in all things. Ile is the 'high and trusted tepresenta- ;t five of the Government in Oude, and, depend upon it, he will be your beit adviser, and your truest friend. I wish that I could speak to you in your own language. That which I have said will now be interpreted to you, and I enjoin you to bear it 'in your memories. „ Mawdsley and Son can now supply the new and popular Game of - Card s St. George and the Dragon, aving just received -their _ new patterns. 4, Castle treat. 22 • • . , . itussiA AND CIIINA.—The , following is an extract of - a letter, d a t e d S t.
