harbours of Remini, of Pesaro, and of Guilianova. As soon as the projected organisation shall have been embodied in a decree, which is expected will be the case about the 25th or 30th instant, a general levy of sailors will be, ordered upon that portion of the Italian coast which has been newly armed. The mat drawn under this levy will require to be enrolled in their respective quarters, and the ports of destination. The sailors supplied by the Roman , coast will be sent to Ancona, where an office for enrolment and direction of the crews of She Italian fleet is about to be organised. AnOther.establishnieftt the same kind will be for:&d . hi. icapleA, for those seamen who lta,V . e been reVieci In those Provinces tately for Ming the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. (Stite important orders have been given to viiious private establishments in Europe and in America, on account of the new Italian kingdom. They consist of orders for ships of war of varioits kinds and. sizes, which Are all a.envettal)te between the 15th Febritat.y and .the 15th _March next at the latest: No doUbt some of these commissions will be executed in Liverpool among other , 13 37 .means , of these additional resources', and of the immense quantity of natal materiel found in tl:aplei, the Italian kingdom will possess, by the cegiUning of next spring, a very important fleet, kvhich, so far as regards the number and the adap tability of the ships for fighting purposes, will take rank immediately after the fleets of England, France, and Russia. The new Italian fleet, when put upon a war footing, will be fully manned without difficulty .1 1 means of the various arrangements above referred to. The crews are to be exercised at the guns during the winter, on board thiee ttlgates Which are to be set apart for this purpose. By the Adoption of the foregoing measures it Will readily be seen that Italy, Considering the Magnificent line Of coast which she possesses, will, 1 hive said, find in her navy the chief element or strength and power. (FROM OUR SPECIAIi ARESPONDENT.) t MILAN, N T ,W. 15. 6 life laterview at Warsaw is already an old story ; and if we are to believe many of the Italian, French, and English journals, whose interest it is to strip the same of every import rtllee, declare that it was of a purely personal Ilature, and ended in doing nothing, nevertheless 1 t is still the favourite theme of many .of our Journals, who now, for the first tithe; seem to be persuaded that there WM inbie in tile Meeting 'of t he northern sovereign s than th e p u bli c in gene fal hate been led to suppose. The Daily News a nd Post, which are almost exclusively quoted by uttr journals as " the organs of Lords Palmerston and Russell," assert with such pertinacity and flfidence i inat the interview between our A‘ °reign Minister and Baron Schleinitz was of such a nature as to entirely frustrate the inten tronq of Austria and Russia in establishing any foi. the settlethent .if the Italian question. ii7e *continua* mead the assertions of these two organs of the present Cabinet, and Which is ten*** iiiiMpeted. forth in such semi-official rtialte, it is not to be surprised at that we should act in the columns of the Italian press that these journals, besides being the paid organs of ; L iege ministers, are in possession of all the'most 'taPortant secrets of, the foreign' office, and that he Morning chronicle is the paid organ of the tench Eitth`asy. This assertion on the part of } he two Government journals, that the interview I A Warsaw was a failure, strangely corresponds With, the secret circular note which' is now ~aB s erted, even by the best informed journals of vienna, to have been addressed by Count Rech-' berg to the representatives of Austria, the contents O r Which seems to be surrounded with the, same mystery as has characterised the interview b etween the three sovereigns, and gives birth to housand different conjectures. .The Presse of Vienna, and the Osservatore Triestino, 'assert that at the conference at Warsaw, Austria was not only guaranteed the possession of Venice, pro- Ned she abstained from committing any aggres sive act against Piedmont, but the latter journal, h 1 the most positive terns asserts, that it is in a I) ° B ition to give its readers the following, as the , these of the Understanding come to between sovereigns. The account of the Osservatore Tr iestino is as follows :—We are in a position to a ssert that the interview at Warsaw has realised , the expectations of our court. It is true that 1 e union of the three sovereigns does not con ilitute a formal coalition, nor engage the restora -11 of the Holy Alliance, as some journals pre tend w hi c h d es i re t o b e more conservative than our ~- ' ;( r vernment. The object, however, which the n'Vernment of Vienna had in view, has succeeded, nording to its anticipations, namely, a mutual g oderstanding between the Northern Powers, as r egards the tactics to be observed in the face of a pproaching events without binding themselves ) any ostensible or fermal alliance. The car dinal points established at Warsaw are the following : 1. The principle of non-intervention : 11 Italy, with all its consequences, is to .be main tained, this being also the understanding between Lord John Russell and Baron de Schleinitz, at Coblentz. 2. In conformity with the principle of 4 °n -intervention, Austria has pledged herself to t° observe the same line of policy that she has Pursued up to the present time, which is to be Purely defensive before the threatening attitude Piedmont. 3. If Austria should be attacked, Of which there is no doubt, she shall be at liberty I. ° pursue whatever course she may deem most, eXpedient for her strategical operations without r egard to any established line Of territory. 4 . If t he war should be exclusively confined to Pied -41,..0nt and the collective forces of Italy alone, the Cabinets of Berlin and St. Petersburg would regard the same as localised,' and consequently Observe a strict neutrality. 5. 'lf, however, any Other Power should take an active part in the s truggle, or by the simple occupation of the 4 orabardian territory, ceded by the Emperor ;`.\ apoleon, mph intervention should be considered Russia and Prussia as a casus . belli. The 'Same Journal finishes its observations by stating that Whatever may' be said to the contrary, the con ference of Warsaw will prove to be in favour of Austria, and that she has obtained all that she eould reasonably hope to gain by this interview. The Italian journals laugh at the Osservatore 4 riestino, and in support of their argument assert hat the conference at Warsaw was a complete q 7 aseo (failure) for Austria, in consequence of the i nfluence that England has with Prussia, and the qetermination of this power to follow the present Policy of the English Cabinet. If the Osservatore Ziestino doubts this (add the Italian prints) we r ecommend for its perusal the Daily News and t he Morning Post, which are the acknowledged °rgans of Lord John Russell, Lord Palmerston, and Lord Gladstone." How well might the'. Ilu.rnal of Trieste, adopting the same line of logic, ont with much more reason and force, turn round lIPon. the Italian prints and say : In support of 1:11 3' information relative to the interview at War -1!1'w, and that 'the conference was not so great a 4 ( 0 , sco foF Austria as you (the Italian prints) assert, et me remind you of the absence from the Lord I.' ayor's banquet of the Ambassadors of Russia, Austria, and Prussia, and the immense solicitude t hat was evinced to bring Count P-ers*ny from 4 :ariS to be present at that annual union. of the r epresentatives at the Court of St. James. It c annot be denied that the absence of the repre sentatives of the Northern Powers is somewhat si gnificant, especially at the preseni moment, Whether we attribute it to Lord John Russell's late note to Sir James Hudson, to which the Moining Phrase very happily applies the famous Balaklava Pllrase, c'est tnagnque mais c'est pas (la guerre) 4 iPlomatique, or to the consequences of the late interview at Warsaw. t he order that your readers may fully appreciate Ie great contradiction that there exists between t he ; most influential journals of the various parties i nterested in the Italian question, I will give 'hem an extract from a late number of the Inde -I)eniance, which asserts in the most positive manner , that it was seen : an extract of a letter written by Napoleon to the Emperor Alexander d uring the interview at Warsaw_ , of which the f ollowi n g is the substance. Napoleon, after lhanking the Emperor Alexander for his courtesy 0 4 writing to explain the nature of the meeting the three Sovereigns, then refers to the Italian question, and states that in the event of Sardinia eitg. attacked by Austria, the Empero r o f th e h would consider himself bound to defend S ardinia defend ; but if, on the contrary, Austria should be attacked by Sardinia, Napoleon would abstain f ront taking any part in the quarrel; but with t hug 1 condition, that Austria should declare that s hould might be the result of the war, she eould always respect the stipulations of Villa rtanca. The same journal continues,—it is useless t !'r me to 'point out the importance of this condi °ll, which may be relied upon as a faithful tract of the Napoleonic letter, having the same : 311 1 persons of the highest authority (?) Austria ' o 'llnot, and, most certainly will not accept such a t °lldition, and which Napoleon knew at the time e'at he framed his letter to the Emperor Alexan tr, but 'which was expressly introduced in order Open ra road for the intervention of France, iett in the event of Sardinia being the aggressor. 11 , 14 it is possible, continues the Independance, h at this interference may only be confined to .I'q ° occupation of Lombardy. Your readers will h e re perceive the great and important difference „ t o 'biveen these two journals, both of which declare sources. have their information from such imp or t an t o Bothcannot be right, especially as the ki e eervatore Triestino affirms, that even the , ii TPle occupation of Lombardy would be con -I:ered as a casus belli. I confess that lam mo re disposed to repose my faith_ in the version 4,,e ll —hy the Osservatore. Triestino, than the I CLependanee, notwithstanding the reputation h „ enjoys for the correctness of its general h~ s.WB • The Independance also asserts, in most positive terms, the existence of a secret treaty between Prance and Sardi nia, WhiOli guarantees •to the latter not' only her ancient possessions, but also those obtained by the peace of Zurich. There can be no doubt that there exists a secret treaty between Napoleon and Cavour, the present conduct of France towards Piedmont being all a shani to deceive the other powers ; arid ; in her ,a*n time, to impose upon Piedmont the fulfilment of the condition of this treaty towards France for the successful part she has played in this gigantic, deception. It is the policy of the,ruler of the Fretiiiii to. be eternally coquettiri, 6 .--first With Itussia,. then with Austria, then With - Prussia, leaving England almost entirely abandoned; but as soon as he perceives a want of cordial feeling on, the part of the northern powers away he rushes back to the arms of England, and overpowers her with the warmth and sincerity of his protestations, which are Scarcely worth one day's purchase: The political character of this astute diplotiatist assumes sd many phases; and each so opposed to one another, that we cannot reposrithe slightest, hope of con stancy or good faith in the present apparently sincere feeling of Napoleon towards England, wlirch is actuated by the wise ; policy of a coali t,ion between the certainty of there being. a • mutual linclersta i nding come to tibttreerl the Norther ti Sovereigns. lam disposed to believe, '.from my private information, that Count Rech herb., has not.- at. present despatched any note .to the Austrian representatives, and that till now the greatest secresy has been observed as to the., nature of, the engagements entered into between the three Sovereigns; but, from confidential whispers, and the extreme attention on the part of. the Gallic Cock towards the British Lion, I am dispoSed to believe, as your readers will remem ber I prophesied three weeks ago; that the inter . - View at Warta* *dila; the end, tarn Otit much more AilStrla than teas . generally believed; and that a mutual understand ing was PoSitiVelY agreed to between these Powers. .Lords Palmerstrin and Russell, and Count Persigny seem, by their speeches; to have explored one political horizon, and fourid nothing to disturb the serenity, of a happy future, and that the . prospects of peace were never or.O favourable' , HOW strangely does this T lannage correspond with the absence from the Lord Mayor's banquet of the ambassadors of Russia, Austria, and Prussia ; besides, to What ever quarter w. c turn our eyes, whether it be t(.., - ;vards Italy, Spain, Prussia, Austria, Russia, Trance, or England, .we find the most active war preparations, and no. man, whatever he may be, or however high his position, can say what changes may take place between this and the ensuing, spring. _ ;Niy, latest•accounts from Rome again assert as alino,4t, positive the departtire of the Pope froth the Eternal City. The place of his retreat is generally believed to be in some city of Germany, from whence he • will made a supreme appeal against the Italian revolution, and once more hurl the thunders of his anathemas against the invasion of his territory. I am, in a position to inform you that within the last ten days secret committees are being formed in this city, at Turin, and Genoa, for the purpose of engaging emissaries to spread agita tion and discontent airiong the Hungarians and Venetians against the . Anstrip GOVehriiietit ) urging the people riot to accept any reforms or Conciliations, that all the reforms of Austria are only a snare and delusion for the present, in order to crush thetri with fiercer despotism at a more opportune period. This is the game that the Italian revolutionary party is now preparing for the war next spring. My letters from Turin inforM thatthe elections for the new province's will be fixed for next month, and the meeting of Parliament for thelsth January, 1861, by which time the alterations now making in the Palace Carignano will" be completed, and sufficiently large to held 450 deputies.

Frora the London-bridge Station, slie and her mite went in common cabs to Claridge's Mite]; in Brook-street, and it was not until they had been some time in the hotel, that her Majesty's rank was known. The Empress went out on foot early yes terday morning, and made several purchases in the neighbourhood of the liot2l. lii the afternoon she and Tier stiite engaged. some priyato eattriag'es froiri, v a neigii liourinn. livery stable, and visited the Crysthl .Palace.

The Prince of Wales arrived by special train at Windsor at twenty minutes before seven last night. The Prince Consort met the Prince of Wales at, the railway station. The Prince of Wales's suite consisted of the uke of Newcastle, Earl of St. GermainS, Major general the Hon. R. Bruce, Major Teasdale and Captain Grey,• equerries in waiting, Viscount Hinchinbrook, Dr. Acland, and Mr. Efigelhert, private secretary to the Duke of Newcastle. The royal squadron has had head winds and bad weather nearly all the way. Nov. filth Paised and signalled a Norwegian brig standing to the eastward, the only vessel the squadron communicated with on the passage until their near arrival at the channel: Nov. 6th : The squadron were only 317 Miles from the Lizard, but the wind had increased to a heavy gale from the S.S.E. The squadron was beating against it until the evening of the 13th, when the wind hauled round to the northward, and blew very heavily from that to the N.W. The Hero made the Liiard lights about three o'clock on the morning of the 15th. The Hero and Ariadne had an ample supply of coal, but were prevented from steaming. by the gales. They parted company with the Flying Fish a. few days after they left Portland, and have not seen her since. Their not being seen may be accounted for by their having been rather out of the usual track, having ran far to the southward with the expectation of picking up a westerly wind. They had only about another week's ships pro visions on board, and were tun out of their sea stock, the royal party being obliged fit the last few days to put up with salt and preserved provisions. His Royal Highness, on his birth-day, gave, a dinner to the officers of the Hero. THE MONEY MARKET. The Times says. the rise in the rate of discount from 5 to 6 per cent. created no surprise, and' was not followed by any movement in the stock market, where prices were steadily maintained throughout the dat. The public see thoroughly that the present drain is totally different from those that t' Ice plaCe from extravagance and reckless trading. It was understood that £360,000 in gold bars would he removed from the Bank yester day, and the whole were packed up ready for delivery, but as soon as the rise in the rate of discount was announced the dealers, it is said, telegraphed to Paris, and they subsequently declined to take any. The opera tion, however, is prohatily merely pustpozied till to-day. The Times mentions that a number of rumours are in cir culation regarding the extent of the present drain upon the Bank of Prance. According to one of them no less than £3,600,000 has been drawn out since the advance in their rate of discount to 43 percent. on Monday last. and the rumour is that the Bank of France intend to obtain £2,000,000 more from this side, but supposing such to be the case they would not be likely to allow the inten tion to b e prematurely published. The Tinws explains the operati on b y which .the withdrawal of gold from the Bank of. England on French account is effected. Bills are drawn between Paris and London by the firms employed; these bills are discounted at onr banks, and the notes thus obtained are taken to the Bank of Eng land to be exchanged for gold, whichis forthwith trans mitted to France. The Bank of France pay all the expense's of the operation. For every iiiineCifif gold' withdrawn we have full value in French guaranteed bills of exchange of a character equal to gold, and our position, therefore, is just as strong after the Aux as previouS to it. The discount houses haye raised' their allowance on depOsits from 4 to 43 per cent. for money on call, and from 41 to. 5. per cent. with seven days' notice. The joint-stock banks have also raised their terms, the London and Westminster giving 41 on sums' of £5OO and upwards, and 33 on smaller amounts ; the Commercial, 5 per cent, for old deposits, and 41 for all fresh sums; and the other banks adopting a uniform rate of 41 per cent. The limit of 41 was agreed to at a meeting held at the London and Westminster, at which if was agreed that it would not be expedient in the preSent instance to follow the usual plan of fixing the' allowance at a point so high as that of 1 per cent. within the - Bank rate o f di scount. The .gerald gays, the advance of yesterday has brought the question of the effect upon the legitimate trade of the country under strong consideration. Six months' paper was quoted 7* to 8 per cent., but this is not' too freely absorbed, :because the lapse of a day or two may cause an important fluctuation. Yesterday parcels of Dillswere negotiated early in the morning at 5 and 53 per cent., which after one o'clock p.m. could not have been done . at 61 and 7 per cent. With such a condition of affairs, it is.not unreasonable to apprehend mercantile ilifficulties. Trade must be in a comparatively sound state, otherwise spasmodic movements of this kind would quiCkly develop the consequences. The Daily News says that the discount market yester day was very unsettled. At the Bank of England there was a continued pressure for money, that establishment being the cheapest market, notwithstanding the advance in its terms. In most other • quarters only regular customers were accommodated. Very little business Was done below the Bank rate, and 6 to 61 per cent. may be considered the prevailing terms for very good bills having not more than sixty days to run. As regards four and six months' paper, there was a general indispo sition to discouq it ; nevertheless, the principal financial establishments appear to be amply supplied with money, though very careful of employing it. A Cabinet Council was held yesterday. The death of Dr. Pepys, Bishop of Worcester, is announced. The Marquis of Salisbury and Lord: M'almesbury have proceeded on a visit to Mr. Disraeli in Bucks.

TUCKERMAN INSTITUTE.—Last night, in the Domestic Mission Chapel, Bedford -street, Toxteth Park, the first lecture of the winter course in connection with this most admirable institution was delivered before a large audi ence, by W. J. Lamport, Esq., on " Baxter and the Nonconformists." The lecture was very interesting and instructive, no less for the immense amount of valuable information which the lecturer furnished to his auditory, than for the sound practical remarks he addressed to them, to imitate and imbue themselves with the spirit of the holy and heroic men of whom Baxter may be truly said to be at ohee the leader, the instructor, and the. , guide. The early career and pious manifestations of this sanctified servant of God were graphically described, and instructive moral lessons, drawn from his pure and spotless life, .were inculcated by Mr. Lamport to his hearers in an earnest and fervent manner. At the con clusion of the'lecture all present joined in prayer for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, that the same divine pro tection which shielded the sainted Saninel Baxter in the persecuting days of yore, might be 'graciously vouch safed to those who followed in his footsteps and adhered to his doctrines in the present day. It was most grati fying, to witness the large number of young persons, of both sexes, who attended the lecture, the deliverer of which received quite au ovation from the auditory when he had terminated his excellent discourse.

After the play, Mt, 11 , 4 / .4 B. ll l_ livan came forward, and recited the folloWing address i ADDRESS, An actsr, young, unaided, and alone, Some ten years now bygone—almost unknown : • If s nheral&d, but flrrn-resolved, became • .)kic,"pdictatelfor histrionic fame; 1 e sought a City that lot eS earnestness • Of the trite ring, and clicerr it to ettcee4s • • If not the cradling-plate, at least the Cchb6l.

Wonder," compressed into three acts, com pleted the bill; and gave Mr. Barry Sullivan an opportunity of shoWng his capabilities in a lighter vein in the character of the jedlqus Don Felix. He was admirably supported by Miss tabra Gray in Donna" Violante, " The woman who can Itrep ac secret." All characters appear to come alike to this young lady: she appears at ease in them all, never lack ing energy when it is required, yet full of playful badinage and action when there is proper opportunity for it. Her scene with Don Felix, when her father finds him in the house, and to save his sister and keep her secret, she accuses him of being drunk, was inimitable. This evening will conclude Mr. Barry Sullivan's eng'agenient, ah 4 "The Iron Chest" and "The Wonder" wilt be tepeated.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE DAILY TIMES.' sen,—lnTesuming the consideration of the system of the rediscount bf bills, aria the recent disaStrous illustration of the results in Liverpool, I may notice its extremely pernicious and ruinous reiults, when accompanied by the prineiple 'of unlimited liability of shareholders in joint stock banks. In the Case of the institution - to which I have referred it' is Only necessary to observe that, if the liability of its prdprietota had been liraited to the value of the shares held, its practice of redidcotint could never have been carried to such an unwarrantable extent as it was. It must have met its difficulties at a much earlier period; and, .had it done so, there can be no question that the losses sustained either by its pro prietory or the public would have been materially less ened, whilst the shock to Liverpool credit would have been less damaging in effect, and infinitely more transient in character. _ _ _ It will; perhaps, admit. of proof, that the system of rediscount, even when carried beyond all fair, reason able, and legitimate limits, will, and does, under special circumstances, confer some public advantages, and that our own to*n has in tidies past 'derived such cannot .perhaps be _denied; but it requires_ Very_ little argument to shoW that these were ptirdhaeed at a fearful price—a price out of all proportion to their valde. In estimating this we have to consider the full effects produced' by an explosion of the system—the undue contraction of credit it creates ; and the enormous abridgment of the available means of , trade by which it is followed. One • extreme inevitably and nattirally begets the other. It was so in 1857, when we, as a community, lapsed frdni extreme credit to absolute distriist. Whether the evils then inflicted: upon the i vereantile community have, even yet, been in any appreciable degree, 'much less wholly compensated for, is more than questionable. It is also doubtful whether ? the losses sustained during the past three years by the undue contraction of our banking capital and credit, has not far more than absorbed any profit made, during the previous ten years, by its unsound expansion from the undue and indiscriminate rediscount of bills. In leaving this. part of the piestien, it may be remarked that the adoption of the practice of rediscount *as the natural' resillt of a deficiency of banking capital; it has been perpetuated by the same cause, and it will only cease with the introduction of free banking institutions that shall concentrate and render available for commerce, that large amount of dormant capital,now acknowledged to exist, and to be in the possession of that class of our, community who are excluded from the use of banks by the commission-tax of a quarter per cent. But this qUestipri of rediscount hAs to be considered frdm another point of vie* i a point ; too, • involVing results . even more important than any I have yet noticed. It affects the 'very foundation of our whole banking systern,-and effectually perpetuates that 'dependent monetary position of Liverpool which is so detrimental to hdr commerce. It effectually crushes that indepen dence which should grow with age and increasing wealth, and is the parent of the practice of domiciling all Liverpool bills of exchange at London bankers. In small communities, and Acre dOtrinierdial transactions of magnitude are few and far between, one can well understand that some advantages may attend the practice of making bills'payable in London; and it is not too much to: admit that. there. was a time when. it was beneficial to Liverpool, but certainly that has long since passed away, and the practice would have naturally passed with it had it not been for the rediscounting practice of her bankers. ft continues still because no adeqiiate provision has yet been made to meet Liverpool's requirements. Let the reader consider. Who that is engaged in trade does not know that when a bill of exchange is 'handed to a banker here, almost the first point noticed is whether it is payable at S. London bank, and one, too, having a recognised agency in Liverpool, All bills of a certain class, to ensure their discount, must be made So payable. True, this does not prevail now to the full extent it once did, but the exceptional cases even now are rare. A bill 'of exchange payable in Liverpool is always less current in Liverpool than one payable in Lon don. The reason is obvious. Under our present restricted system of banking, when w banker advances money upon a bill :of exchange he has to look to its convertibility ; or, in other words, he has to see whether it is such an instrument as he can raise money, upon in London ; and he knows it Would be utterly useless to send there any paper that_ was only redeemable in Liverpool. This is the real key-stone of our monetary dependence. and here we may trace the Ain force of that crushing tyranny of London capitalists, which has so often placed Liverpool in so unenviable and dangerously critical a position. Now let us consider the cost at which we purchase this dependency and tyranny. Virtually, nay, practically, and certainly the effect of domiciling our bills in Lon don, is to transfer to London bankers. one-half the banking commissions paid in Liverpool, and which should, and might, be kept at home to enrich our own 'community. It, is not necessary even to estimate the losses which Liverpool bank shareholders sustain from this transfer of profit from themselves. There does seem something so ridiculously and marvellously absurd in the *aide of A Selling to B £5OO worth of produce, and taking his acceptance for the amount payable in London, when buyer, seller, produce, and money are all in Liverpool. The system of rediscount is the only necessity that now exists for such an anomaly. Why should London participate to the extent of 255. up on every £l,OOO of produce sold in Liverpool, when the payment is made through the me dium of a bill of exchange ? Let a bank once be established that ' should be independent of the practice of rediscount, and instead of giving a' preference in the disecunt of bills of exchange to those payable in London, give the preference to those payable at any Liverpool bank, and we should soon see a change effected so far as regards home bills, and the commissions now paid. to the London bankers would soon be saved, and more than compensate for any slight advantage of rediscount. Let the rediscount ofbills - by bankers be exceptional, not the rule, and let a preference be given to all paper payable on the spot. This, with other means would soon render Liverpool independent.

HENGLER'S GRAND ClRCilik The synopsis for the past week has been attractive and varied; and after the representation of some portions at the morning and evening performances ; these portions will be withdrawn in order to make room for further magnetic noveltieS ' which are to. be produced during. the week. Although we • have frequently noticed the pleasing and Wonderful performance of Mr. John Henry. Cooke, we Canna refrain from again adverting to his astonishing . f e at s o n a bard-haeked horse, in wich he display s th e hi g h est amou nt of skill with a sang froid that leaves 'nothing to be desired. Shakespeare says, "the eyes are made the fools of the other senses" but in the case o f M r . C oo k e the quotation is not applicable, for our eyes are made to convey. delight to the other senses, by beholding the most finished dexterity that human nature is capable of. In this, and his appear anCe " fotr'horses of the sun,' he elicits enthusiastic plaudits; for his management of 'the four is superior, and shows, also, the high state of training of these beautiful steeds. All who Witness Mr. Cooke's splendid operations will agree with us that he, deserves all the praise bestowed:on him. Mr. Wild has introduced the beautiful twin ponies, and the degree of perfection to Which these - annals have been brought by training is astonishing. Some new comic scenes have been intro duced by the clowns and a portion of the company ; and anything to equal them for genuine racy drollery, we have not seen—such as wish to be well rid of the "blues " should go and enjoy this. • Master Read repre sents a juvenile Batches admirably, And promises to becothe a favourite. Mdlle. Florette and 1V1f:A: 'as the Swiss lovers, are agile and graceful, and Mr. Richards, the great American rider, still holds sway.

So none should lose the opportnnitY of seeing all. COLOSSEUM THEATRE. Mr. GardinerCoyne brings his brilliant and lengthened engagement to a close this evening. The long time during which he has delighted the large audiences who have crowded the Colosseum, night after night, speaks suffi eiently,fer the general excellence of his performances ; but his engagement will be succeeded by another likely to prove as attraetim . tts , its predecessors. Miss Lillia Ross, who conies with a great reputation as the "Won derful Child Actress," will open on Monday, assisted by the Mr. M'lntyre, and the whole of the present powerful company. The latter gentleman, though not of long standing in this town, is rapidly acquiring popularity , and will soon be a great favourite. To-night Mr. Coyne appears in " The Boys of Kilkenny" and "More Blunders than One." REYNOLDS'S WAXWORKS. If Garibaldi were to visit Liverpool, how many persons would visit him ? This 'man, who has caused such a World wide talk, would, of course; cause a furore. As we cannot, however, see him in his proper person, the next best way to gratify our curiosity, is to sec his best representative in wax at Reynolds's Exhibition, Lime -street. A figure of the famous Dictator has been added here, and from the assurance of persons who have Seen .and known him, we believe it the best statue of the living man in this country. It is as life-like as any figure can be, and conveys a good notion of the original to the spectator. Every care has been taken to make it correct, and no :price has been spared to the same end. -See it, and judge for yourselves. THE RIFLE BRIGADE BALL AT THE GUILDHALL. On Thursday evening the long-announced ball, in connection with the London Volunteer Rifle Brigade, came off at the Guildhall, which was beautifully'de corated for the occasion ; the trophies, banners,, busts, gas stars, and other-ornaments being preserved untouched since the great City banquet on the oth of November; and many important additions and imorovements being made, the whole termed a sight seldom, if ever before, seen even in that centre of hospitality and social enjoyment --the ancient hall of the guilds of the City. Gog and Magog grimly smiled their satisfaction at the renewal of the festivities known to them in days o f yore, when as yet volunteers were not, and were , doubtl ess , full of pleasant memories of the times when William Beekford was Lord Mayor, and when London furnished its contingent to swell the ranks of the soldiers who voluntefred for the defence of the coun try, when the danger of invasion was more imminent than it is at present. At the head of the room, facing the gigantic guardians of the City, was a len g thened seat slightly raised, with, in the centre , chairs for the Lord M a y or an d Lady Mayoress, whose sa cred per sons were preserved from the touch of the profane Vulgar by an extended scarlet line. Surrounding the" Lord Mayor, and forming his little court, were the sheriffs, Messrs. Lusk, and Abbiss, and the other lead ing officials of the City. Colonel Willard°, inspector general of volunteers, and Colonel Hicks, of the London Rifle Brigade, with several other officers of distinction, were also present, apparently delighted with the gay scene. On the floor of the hall were ladies fair to look upon from every quarter of London, radiant in the beauty in which English girls stand unrivalled, in dresses of pink, white, blue, and, in fact, every colour in and out of the rainbow, their lovely persons bedecked with pearls and with diamonds, which grew pale under the flashes of their bonny bright •eyes. Mingled among them were volunteers, artillery and rifle, in every postible variety of uniform; officers of the army, navy, and militia, and a few gentlemen in ordinary evening dress, the whole forming a brilliant scene, which few who witnessed will readily forget. Dancing commenced at nine p.m. , at which time a considerable number of ladies and gentlemen were present. The choice of partners was a difficult one, not from a paucity of ladies, but rather from a superabun dance of beauty. It is unnecessary, if, indeed, it were possible, to single out, after the manner of our brethren across the Atlantic, the belle of the evening, so many possessed such indubitable claims to the honour that •an injustice would be done by naming any. The music was all that could be desired; the band of the brigade and Adams's quadrille band vieing with each other in producing the melodious strains to which the fair and gallant votaries of Terpsichore enjoyed themselves. Dancing was kept up with unintermitting energy until a late- hour in the morning. Outside there appeared to be almoit as much enjoyment as in the ball, the gamins fin ling delight in the inspection of the rapidly-arriving and departing cabs and carriages, which, under the superin terdence of the police, maintained excellent order, and wl ich—happy rarity'.—were easily found when wanted. The arrangements, as a whole, reflect great credit upon the committee and stewards, and, but for a drawback in the refreshment department, would have been perfect. THE CONDEMNED CONVICT MULLINS.—On Thursday afternoon Mr. Wood, the solicitor, attended at Newgate, by the special request of the wretched man Mullins, for the purpose of placing before the Secretary of State another memorial in favolir of his innocence of the crime of- which he stands convicted. Mr. Wood remained with the convict nearly an hour, and another dfcutnent was drawn up, and was forwarded to the Home-office at a late hour in the evening. The Rev. Mr. Davies, the chaplain to the prison, has visited the ecndemned man almost daily, butt he has rejected his irterference, and wished to be under the exclusive atten tnn of the Roman Catholic priest. The prison autho rities have commenced the preparations for the execution, which, in the opinion of the sheriff, will take place at tle appointed time.

" THE BEE AND THE MAN.". Such was the title of a lecture delivered last evening, at Hope-hall, by James Samuelson, Dq. How appro priate the designation of the lecture, we are not pre pared to day;. but this we can say, that all writers, sacred and miindate; hate resorted to that many-legged bipennated thing (the bee), to remind man of his duty, not only to himself, but his fellow's. Xatttre is inex haustible, and yet its great masterpiece--nian----is the only one of its glorious productions that (in too many instances, alas !) abuses its gifts. That mast splendid, of all poetic vagabonds, (we speak of him. as a vagabond in the law sense, not having any fixed place of abode), Lord Byron, has said—how truly ? "Man being reasonable, mtist get drunk !" But we can safely say, in opposition; quoting from the moralist, HOW doth the little busy bee intsprotm each shilling hour? And we shall back the moralist, in a comparative point, if man had only the knack to recognise his truth. But, unfortunately, people will recognise anything except that which they ought Ah, but if we would only take a lesson frm the bees, or the ants, or the grasshoppers, or the crickets, or even from the cuckoo, would we not not learn something and be a trifle the wiser therefor ? Mr. Samuelson appears to be one of nature's mightiest handiworks—a man who knowns his own dignity and preserves it ; and tries, in a manner the most persuasive, to make others feel as he himself feels. As .a lecturer, he possesses the primary qualities that contribute to Mass. Grave in manner, which imparts that carriage so necessary, without presumptive fluency of speech, without attempt at high flowing oratory, which frequently render speakers ridiculous, clear articu lation—one of the most essential points in a public speaker,—and a sweet cadence. As to the matter of the lecture of last evening,,it was full of the essenee of poetic feeling. , some people say they were born never to be of any use, either, to themselves or any one else ; " Stuff and nonsense," saith somebody—true, every man cannot be a Watt, or a Stephenson, or a Napoleon, nor a Plutarch, but every man, if he only took a lesson from the bee, is capable of leaving a honeycomb, be the same more or less, behind him, for the benefit of his successors. The "Bee" does that, and is man less than the bee in greatness ? The chair was taken at the lecture of yesterday even ing at half-past seven, by William Brown, Esq., who in brief terms introduced the lecturer.. The audience was most respectable. If we were to judge from the repeated applause bestowed on Mr. SainuelsOn during his interesting discourse, we should say his success was complete, and he deserved it. The lecturer gave an interesting history of the valuable insect, physically and socially, and illustrated his discourse with diagrams. He drew a contrast between the bee and the man, which, if followed up, would prove profitable to the boasted wisdom of the latter. His peroration was admirable, and a hearty vote of thanks was awarded to him, and also to the chairman. The proceeds were for the funds of the Kirkelale Industrial Schools. FATAL COLLISION ON THE LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY.- EIGHT LIVES LOST. . Yesterday morning, about two o'clock, ,an accident, attended with a serious loss of life took place near the Atherstone station on the Trent Valley line, 102 miles from London. From informatiOn obtained at Euston Station, it appears that ' at the time above mentioned the mail train from: Scotland came into collision . with a cattle , train which was being shunted at the 'Atherstone station. The result as regards the drovers who were in the cattle train was most- calamitous, seven of them being killed on the spOt and one or two others injured. The. l fireman of the mail train was killed, and two Post-office guards sustained some injury; but the engine -driver and all the passengers of the mail train escaped unhurt. Fortunately the number of of passengers was small. The engine attached to the mail train was thrown by the shock down an. embankment. Both the bp and the down lines were blocked for some time ; but' they were. speedily cleared, and the mail train with all the passengers and two guards who were hurt reached London at a quarter to ten yesterday morning. The Irish mail train Was somewhat delayed by the . accident, but it arrived at Euston-station soon after ten. The other trains all arrived in due time, and there will be no further interruption of the traffic. At an early hour yesterday, Mr. Cawkwell, the general manager of the London and North-Wes tern 14,ilway, left London for the purpose of investigating the cause of the accident.

The engine driver and guard were slightly injured. The engine passed through two cattle trucks, and buried itself in the steep embankment, where, for a quarter of an hour, the hissing of the steam pattially drowned the groans of the dying cattle. The baggage van was stove over a cattle truck, and rested at an angle of 45. None of the other carriages were thrown off the rails. The fault was at the station, where there was no danger signal put, only a hand lamp when it was too late to stop. The Glasgow train was up to time. .

The conduct of thecommissioners appointed to inquire into the . Berwick cleetibir has been such as to make it absolulely incumbent upon all' public" writers to express their opinion of its character. 'the commissioners were appointed in order to ascertain the truth` of an alleged offence ; but, practically, also to do justice betWeeri con , tending parties. They have certainly displayed a singular emiception of the latter duty, without any the more effectually discharging the former one ; and, what is mote, if iic difficult to sec bow they could have been ignorant beforetaild that such would be character of their'procedure. The'rnain'facts of this disgraceful case must he perfectly familiar to our readers. Some of them, perhaps, may be unlucky enough to hae Brodies of their own ; and, in that case, their appreciation of this little history will be considerably heightened. But, however that may he, the man himself must be a perfectly familiar character to all people turned of forty. The man with a grievance, who at first excites your interest, then your compassion, and finally your* unqualified horror, though sufficiently near the colour, it may, of a black swan, is unhappily not near so rare. The . grievance has turned 'his head ; and, of course, when a man's head is turned he sees things in a manner backwards, and may go through all the forms of roguery in the belief that he is an honest man. Worse than this we do not desire to allege against the unfortunate Mr. Serjeant Brodie. Efi3 misfortunes had affected his understanding; and that is a sufficient excuse for him. But it is no excuse for Mr. Dondel Nicoll; while it is exactly the very thing which gives the' darker shade of colour to the conduct of the commissioners. Serjeant Brodie then, after a certain amount of inter course with Mr. Disraeli—alone rendered possible by the well-known accessibility of the right hon. gentleman to all applicants—was obliged to be told that, although Mr. Disraeli was sorry for him, it was impossible to I employ him any more in the public service. Some time elapsed / and Brodie, as it would seem, obtained some employment for himself. This point, however, is not very certain, nor has if any bearing on the case before us. It is sufficient to know that at the time of the last Berwick election he was in sAlnt of employment again. He again, therefore, started in pursuit of the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and after what sportsmen would call a "good hunting run," fairly brow; ht him to hay in one of the corridors of the House of Commons. Mr. Disraeli had no more power to escape from him than the wedding guest had from the Ancient Mariner— " Ire listens like a three years child, The saddler had his will." Moreover, Mr. Disraeli never disregards warnings, and the saddler told him that life and death hung upon his giving him a hearing. So, after having listened to vari ous offers of assistance in the Frome and Berwick elec tions; and having assured the serjeant that he had nothing to do with such matters, he was obliged to get rid of him at last by turning him over to somebody else. He gave him, accordingly, a scrap of paper, with the name and address of Mr. Rose ; the parliamentary agent, therein inscribed—stating that he (Mr. Disraeli) knew nothing about the bearer's business, but had pro mised to get him a hearing. Finding that this was all he could get out of Mr. Disraeli, Mr. Serjeant Brodie took his departure, but not in the direction of Mr. Rose's office. In fact, he never, it appears, presented this introduction at all—a most important point when taken, in conjunction with another part of his operations. At some other time, it seems he did call upon Mr. Rose, and endeavoured to persuade that gentleman to give him employment at the Frome election, saying - many offensive things of Mr. Donald Nicoll, the Liberal can didate, and swearing that if he had only five pounds he " could make the tailor run." Will it be believed that at the very moment when Serjeant Brodie was up stairs vowing vengeance against the tailor Nicoll, Mr. Nicoll's own Clerk was down stairs waiting for Serjeant Brodie ? We need not refrain from pointing out the obvious inference to be drawn from these facts, because Mr. Donald Nicoll himself has virtually admitted it, by stipulating that if he retired from the contest at Frome no criminal proceedings should be instituted against him by Mr. Disraeli : the meaning of this was, that the only object of all Serjeant Brodie's efforts had been to obtain some written engagement from either Mr. Disraeli or Mr. Rose which could hereafter be used against them, and that Mr. Nicoll was not unnaturally afraid that the transaction, if brought into a court of law, would bear an ugly resemblance to a conspiracy. Such is the aspect of the whole case as it now stands revealed to us. But the chief offender in our eyes is neither Mr. Brodie nor his employer. The commis sioners were perfectly well aware of the true state of the case when they summoned Mr. Disraeli as a wit ness. They knew that of the two men whose evidence was to justify this proceeding one was in an unsound state of mind, while the other had acknowledged that he stood in fear of a criminal prosecution. Was it the act of equitable judges, or even of• high-minded gentlemen, to make the words of such two men as these reason suffi cient for placing Mr. Disraeli in the witness-box, and sub jecting him to the ordeal of two hours' cross-examination? Are we not justified in suspecting that the only motive of such conduct was to invest the evidence with a weight which it did not intrinsically possess ; and to convey an impression to the public that though the inquiry had been baffled, there bad been substantial grounds for undertaking it ? Any other reason for elevating these utterly trumpery circumstances into matters for a serious investigation we cannot imagine ; unless, indeed, the personal annoyance of Mr. Disraeli were such a motive. If so, we rejoice to think that the gratification of it has been more than counterbalanced by the complete 'and felicitous vindication of himself whicia the right hon. gentleman delivered. He brushed away cash r eb bisliiniputation like a cobweb, and his inquisitors only succeeded in showing that to more than ordinary kind-- ness of heart he united more than ordinary clearness of head. This result, unhappily, does only a little to dimi nish the encouragement afforded;by the conduct of the commissioners' to` the whole tribe of intriguers and infolineis-who are-warmed into life by the ferment of a ',general election)! It has now been publicly proclaimed that when a man, wants to throw dirt, every 'facility may be afforded him under cover of a judicial inquiry; and though in this instance the device has recoiled upon its authors, yet a mischievous precedent has been estab lished, which may hereafter be converted to the most odious.and oppressive purposes.--Edi.eincrgh Courant. THE Bisitornic or COLOMBO.—In consequence of the absence from England of the Duke of Newcastle, the Secritary for the Colonies, no steps have yet been 'taken for filling up the Bishopric of Colombo, which Dr. Chapman has intimated his intention of resigning. The right rev. prelate will remain in Ceylon until infor mation reaches him that a successor has been appointed,• upon which he will return to England. The b ishopric is worth £2,000 a-year. THE COOLIE TRADE.— A. meeting of the Court of Policy at Demerara was held on the 24th ult. In a report of the Auditor-general on the transactions' of the Immigration Loan Commissioners, it was stated that during the season there had been fifteen arrivals of Coolie transports, with 4,786 immigrants, at a cost of $232,523 42c. Of these people seventy-one died in hospital, six were still there under treatment, thirteen orphan children had been either placed with their rela tives or sent to the Orphan Asylum, and the remaining 4,696 had been sent to the estates. On its becoming known that hostilities with China had been determined on, the rates of passage-money • rose immediately. For the twelfth vessel taken up an _agent in Calcutta paid £l2, but for the remaining three he had to pay at the rate of £l4 for each statute adult, thus causing an addi tional outlay of $18,313 42c. for the same.---London and Gaines Telegraph. FRENCH PATENTS FOR RUNAWAY HORSES.—A great many patents have been taken out in France of late years for stopping runaway horses, and in almost every saddler's shop we see engravings of apparatus devised to squeeze a horse's throat, or nose, or to catch up one leg and. throw him down. But to all this machinery it is objected that if a horse is really running away at a great pace lie cannot be stopped suddenly by violent means, without considerable risk both to man and beast. A ver y ingenious, and, as I think, valuable invention, operating upon the horse's movements by moral force alone, was publicly tried in the Champs de Mars last week, and is described in the Moniteur of November 10. The inventor, is M. L6veque, late of the Guides and of the cavalry school of Saumur. His plan will assuredly not be approved of by those who object altogether to the use of blinkers, for it is but an extension of the blihker system. The partisans of blinkers, however, for horses in harness, are, up to the present time, in an enormous majority. The leading idea of M. Leveque's invention is to induce the horse by his own natural instincts, and without any mechanical force, to hold his head in such a position that the bit shall act properly upon his mouth. Inside•of each blinker he places a sort of leather fan, called a lanette arret, which opens or shuts at pleasure by means of a safety rein. When de veloped, it only partially, blinds the horse, and it is the natural action of the horse to avail himself of the sight left him that the virtue of the system consists. If he throws up his head to run away, and the lunette is opened, he can see nothing but the sky, and he then inevitably brings his head down to the proper position in order that he may see straight before him. If, on the contrary, the habit of the horse be to escape the action of the bit by Curving his neck till the chin almost touches his breast, the apparatus may be so adjusted as to prevent him from seeing anything but the ground, and he naturally ra i ses his head. Thus the lunette acts both as a bearing-rein and a martingale, but more cer tainly,And without the dangers and inconveniences of those contrivances. For horses addicted to shying the apparatus is particularly useful. As soon as the horse pricks his ears at any object lying in the road, the driver has only to raise the lunette, and the animal, seeing only the distant horizon, and nothing immediately about him, will go by or even right through the thing which frightened him without taking the least notice. On the Champs de Mars I saw horses go unhesitatingly through the flames and smoke of lighted lumps of straw, which but a. moment before, when the lunett es were folded, they could not be made to approach. The apparatus is intended chiefly for horses in harness, but there is a form of it adapted for saddle-horses ; this latter, however, I have not seen in action. Of course a hard-mouthed horse cannot unfailingly be prevented from running away merely by the use of this lunette, but a great deal is, done towards diminishing the danger when his head is got into a proper position, because he will then surely be pulled up before long, and in the meanwhile the driver can guide him. Ido not apprehend that the invention can be put forward as a cure for positive vice, but for timid horses, and horses with defective sight, I have no doubt that it will be found of great atility.—Paris letter. sVerrtitv -.
