fly the Treasury millets just issued, Sir
Rowland Hill's full salary a £2,000 per annum
is continued to him for the retuaiutler of his life.

Under the ordinary provisions of the Super-
annuation Act, the Secretary of the Post-office
is only entitled to a retiring pension of
£566 13e. 4d., or, at tho utmost, £666 13a. 4d ;
but the Lords of the Treasury suggest that the
present case is one of peculiar fitness for bringing
into action the fitli or special clause of the Act.
The benefits of the great reform Sir Rowland
11111 introduced are referred to in the minute. AB
well as tho fact, that while the change caused at
first a decline in the receipts of more than a
million sterling, the receipts have now more than
recovered themselves, and represent a net yearly
profit of about £1,790,000 against £1,660,000
in the olden time. The cordial satisfaction

which the Lords of the Treasury express
in making their recommendation will as-
suredly be shared by the whole kingdom; and
the collateral subject of a contingent provision
for Lady Hill also received the support of the
House of Commons when Lord Palmerston
brought forward the subject on Thursday night.
An immense blue-book, just published,
furnishes most elaborate statistical tables re-
specting the agricultural pursuits of Ireland, the
extent of and under cultivation, the acreage
of the different crops, and number of cattle.
From this return it appears that the bog and
waste unoccupied land is equal in extent to
four-fifths af the surface under crops and nearly
half that under pasturage. In 1862 there was
nearly 137,000 acres less tinder crops than in
1861; but the cultivation of flax exhibits •
slight improvement-150,00C1 acres being under
cultivation in 1862 against about 148,000 in the
preceding year. The number of holdings had
also decreased by 660. 72,730 persons left Irish
ports during 1862, who stated to the enumerators
that it was not "their intention to return."
This was an increase upon 1861 of more than
6000. This exodus naturally reduces the number
and extent of the farming operations, and so we
find a total decrease in the number of cattle of
200,000, sheep 100,000, and nearly half a
million of poultry. It is amusing to find that
enlightened animal, the pig; rising superior to
all adverse circumstances, and increasing his
progeny by more than 50,000 in the year. The
fact is, however, but a sorry relief to the aspect
of general decay which these tables give to
, Ireland.
I The Royal National Lifeboat Institution bed
Its annual meeting on Tuesday, at the London
Tavern, under the presidency of Sir John
Pakington. The report, read by the Secretary,
was a very gratifying document. The great
feature in the past year has been the large
number of noble gifts to its funds, no less than
twelve new boats having been built entirely by
'private beneficence. In addition to these the
institution has been enabled to build three new
boats; and the total number now engaged in the
holy work of saving life is 132. They have
saved 417 persons and 17 vessels during the
year, most of them under circumstances too
dangerous for any other vessels to approach them.
Since the formation of the institution nearly
£lOO,OOO has been expended upon this and
similar works.
The French claims for the Mexican expedition
amount to about £33,000,000, and the payment
is likely to be spread over from five to ten years.
A loan for about 00,000,000 will probably be
taken up by the most powerful houses in Europe.
The arrangement be for a Six per cent
Stock, at the price of from £65 to £7O It is
now stated that the offer to be made next week
to the English bondholders is, payment for the
£3O of over-due dividends in Six per cent New
Stock on condition that they relinquish their
lien on the customs receipts. Even this arrange-
ment will give the bondholders ommiderable more
than the present depressed market price.
According to the Daily News, a paper usually
regarded as Earl Russel's organ in the London
press, Denmark has accepted tho proposed con-
ference, on the basis of the negociatious of 1851
and '52, and without an armistice. The Duo-
German war his not been making much progress
since our last. During the whole of Wednesday
Duppel was vigorously bombarded, but without
success. On Thursday a naval action was also
fought in the Baltic between five Dwnish
steamers, afterwards increased to seven, and two
Prussian men-of-war, aided by several gun-
boats. The battle went against the Prussians,
and they were compelled to seek safety in flight,
being closely pursued by the Danes.
The Queen has expressed, through Mr.
Roebuck, her deep sympathy with the sufferers
by the terrible flood at Sheffield, and has contri-
buted two hundred pounds towards their relief.
Meetings have been held at Manchester, Bir-
tniugham Hall, and elsewhere, in aid of the sub-
scription, and others are announced for the
present week. The sum tubscribed already
amounts to upwards of £lB 000. The latest
statement is to the effect that the supposed
number of victims is gradually getting close up
to 260 or 270. Tho police list gives the number
as 276.
The New York correspondent of the Tient,
describes Mr. Lincoln's cabinet as composed of
men in very bad humour with each other. Each of
them believes he would make a better President
than Mr. Lincoln, and some of them do not
hesitate to say so. The cabinet in the mean-
while never meet, and Mr. Lincoln, who is de-
clared to have succumbed to the evil influences
which surround him, and to have become fedi-
llariaed with baseness, sets aside the campaigns
of his generals without understanding them, and
so is for ever on the point of involving his
country in such disasters as that which has just
befallen it in Florida, where a military expedi-
tion was sent in order to secure the vote of that
State for Mr. Lincoln, and where General
Seymour found himself confronted with an
enemy thrice as strong as himself.

DORCHESTER.—Ptecutn Cole Maul ter, Saturday,
