spection of some new works at Cronstadt.
General Ignatieff, son of the military governor of the
Russian capital, has sent out for Pekin, where, in con-
formity with the provisions of the last treaty concluded
with China, he is to represent the Imperial Government.
He is accompanied with numerous officials.
A St. Petersburg letter says :—" The Senator Kap-
cherr has received orders to draw up a penal military
code, an undertaking altnost as important as the emanci-
pation of the peasants. Persons who are acquainted
with the arbitrary manner in which Russian soldiers
have been hitherto subjectad to punishment will readily
appreciate the utility of this work.

HONITON.

Mr. Alexander Raabe Cochrane has announced
himself a candidate for this borough. In a long
address which he has issued to the electors be says:
—" Anxious to avoid in all legislation the two
extremes of innovation on the one hand and of
bigoted resistance to change on the other, I avow my-
self a general supporter of Lord Derby, for his
antecedents satisfy me that the policy which best
meets the requirements of the country will be always
selected by him." With respect to the late Reform
Bill Mr. tlochrane admits that many parts of it were
susceptible of amendment, but thinks that these
should have been approached in a spirit of concilia-
tion, and not have bccu made the battle•lichl of
Party.

TO THE FREE AND INDEPENDENT ELECTORS
OF THE COUNTY OF DORSET.

OZITTLINEX,
ADISSOLUTION of Parliament being about
to take place, I venture to solicit a renewal of the
trust which you have already twice confided to me.
The defeat of the Itovernment upon the Resolution
proposed by Lord John Russell has led to this appeal to
the country. I took part in the debate upon that twea.
slim. for I could not refrain from protesting against any
interference with the rights of the fortyothilling free•
holders, considering that any attempt to tamper with
their privileges would be unconstitut. I and altogether
inconsistent with true Conservative principles.
lAM sincerely attached to the Constitution, but I
believe that it may be umst surely preserved and
strengthened by fearlessly but cautiously widening the
basis on which it rests, and estending the franchise in
earrespordenoe with the spread of intelligence and
education among the people.

_
I opposed Lord John Russell's Resolution, which I
looked upon in the light of a lucre party move, contrived
for the purpi,so of turning out the Government, and
thereby preventing an early and satisfactory settlement
of t'le question of Reform, which would have taken
place, had the House been allowed to go into Committee
on the Bill.

Lord Derby, on the 4th of this month, in the House of
Lords, rendered a graceful but just tribute to the real
fidelity and attachment with which he had been
supported for many years by the great Conservative
party. That support will, without doubt, be still a
faithfully and zealously given to the Noble Lord, and
I earnestly hope that the country at large will likewise
do justice told' Administration during the year he has
held office, and acknowledge that he has "faithfully
"and diligently discharged the duties which were placed
"on his shoulders, that lie has not neglected the interests
"of the country at home, and that he has maintained
" its honour abroad."

I tntat that the result of the General Election may be
such as to secure the ascendency of the Conservative
party and the continuance in office of the present
Government.

Should the honour I again seek be conferred upon me
I trust I may compensate for any want of ability by the
diligence and zeal with which I 'than attend to your
local interests and nssint in promoting those measures
most conducive to the welfare and happiness of the
people.
I have the honour to be,
“ENTI.F.LIEN,
Your obedient and devoted nervant,

MR. DISRAELI AND HIS CONSTITUENTS.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer haa issued the fol.
lowing address
"To TIM ELEirroßs OF THE CoUNTT OF BCCItINGHAY.
"Gentlemen,—A Parliamentary majority, 4:unmoved
of disoonlant sections, has availed itaelf of its numerical
strength to embarrass tier Maje..ty's Government, and,
by a disingenuous manceuvre, to intercept the discussion
of their uicaliures.

° A year ago Lord Derby was iminnioned by Her
Msjesty to undertake the administration of public
affairs. Assisted by his colleagues, lie has, with dili-
gence and devotion, endeavoured to discharge his duty
to the country.
"The blow which has lately been inflicted on the
Government deprives it of authority, and yet in the
ranks of the Opposition there is no more unity of senti-
ment than when their distracted iolitics rendered it
necessary that Lord Derby should aisllllll2 the helm.
" The Opposition is the .pr-sent HMI*, of Commons,
which was elected under ambiguous circumstances, is
broken into sections, which can always combine and
overthrow the Queen's Government, i.owever formed.
This is a condition alike prejudicial to Parliament and
to the empire.
"It is for the country to comprehend and to remedy
these
" The moment is critical. England has engaged to
mediate between two great Monarchs, and, if possible,
preserve for Europe the blessings of peace. It is neces-
sary that the Queen's Government should be supported
by a patriotic Parliament.
" Her Majesty, therefore, under the advice of her
Ministers, will shortly prorogue the j.rement Parliament,
with a view to its immediate dioolution, and will recur
to the sense of Her people: so that those who may be
intrusted with Her Majesty's confidence may be
enabled to conduct the Government with becoming
authority.
"Under these circumstances, I rely on the loyalty and
public spirit of the county of Buckingham to rally round
Her Majesty's Government, and to return me, for the
sixth time, their member to Parliament.
"1 have the honour, to be, gentlemen,
" Your obliged and faithful servant,
"IL. DISRAELI.

works may be in progress in this county. Tim report
also stated that Col. Cox had received • most flattering
isinimunication from the merchants and manufacturers
of the Borough of Bridport, expressing to him the sense
they entertain of the seal and activity displayed by
Bulit. Iletiale, and the officers stationed under his
charge in the borough, in bringing to justice the offend-
ers in the late extensive twine robberies; that £24 bad
been forwarded to him (Col. Cox), one half of which
a 1111 l unt had been placed to the credit of the tbiperanua-
lion Fund ; and the remainder had been divided amongst
them in proportion to the rank of each individual.

each division should keep their own horses, by which a
saving of 1:150 per annum would be effected, and there-
fore another horse might be found for the borough of
Bridport. The report was unanimously adopted.
The Court shortly afterwards rose.

Dashes and foams the forest stream,
And ripples along the bosky glade,
Silverly leaping the old cascade ;
The milkmaid calls her lowing cows

Young Roger comes whistling down the vale,
Lifts her sweet burden over the style,
Squeezing her willing hand the while ;

Stretched like old Titans at their mule
Lie solitudes of hoary trees,
Whose mysteries haunt our childish dreams,
While throned in great Hyperion's beams—

The monarchs of all the oenturies ;

With the rich minstrelsy of Spring ;

But smiles its morning prayer to God !

MARK-LANE CORN EXCHANGE.

FRIDAY, APRIL B.—During the week the arrivals
of English wheat, coastwise have been only 2,010
quarters, and fresh up, to-day, the receipts by land car.
nage were limited. Although the show of samples was
small, the detnar.d for all kinds ruled very inactive, at
about Monday's currency. There was • full go
supply of foreign wheat on offer, and sales progressed
heavily, at barely late rates. In coating cargoes very
little was doing. Barley was very dull, and prices had
a drooping tendency. There was very little inquiry for
malt, and inferior kinds were a shade lower. Good
sound oats were tolerably trio; but inferior foreign
parcels ruled heavy, at barely late rates. Beans, pea.,
and dour moved off slowly, at about stationary prices.

of nearly three centuries old was observed here on
St. Thommis day, when the clergy, masters of
Queen Elizabeth's Free Grammar School, and other
officers and choristers of the foundation attended
full divine service in the morning, and dined
together at It o'clock at Flarles.s Hotel, the landlord
providing a very sumptuous awl excellent dinner.

Tim liciffimu 84)cm-ff.—We learn that it is the
intention of the directors and members of this admi-
rably conducted society to celebrate their successful
travel over half their stage of contemplated labours
by a public meeting together on some early day, and
to invite the officers of kindred societies in the
neighbourhood. We fear that the design and real
importance of this pmvident institute are as yet not
quite understood, and meetings of the above kind
are therefore wisely held to give opportunity to elu-
cidate their principles and value.

DR. LIVINGSTONE'S PROGRESS.

Intelligence has been received from Dr. Livingstone
up to the 4th of October. Writing on that date from
the " Kongone River," to the Rev. W. Thouipson, he
states : . •.

My dear Mr. Thonipsson,—l could not poseibly write
you by last oppsirtunity f the Zambesi ; hut there
wax no little to communicate you were no loser. We •
litre now 111U1 more time to look about its, and I think
we have ancertaineil the point that entering this river at
the time we did is nearly quitc safe, if no delay takes
1.1%Ce 11111011 g the mangrove swamps. We have been ,
favoured with fair health, 1.11,1 have had ailments more
like common colds than fever. Two of the party are
now At Tete, And the others hope to join them shortly.
We got A ton and a half d coals there, the tirst rltUr
taken Lint of the earth in that country ; and as the 1or-
to:0,w have mliown .1 great dent of public spirit we are
almost sore of a larger nunply when tve it ,urn.
My poor fellows ree,.iveil isle with jr. They lunil been
taunted hy the Tete people that their linglinlimen would
never return ; hot they hoped on, and have a 1114.01.1
o.f head+ to take back to their own einntry.
Thirty of them died of moinll-poic. until nix were killed by
a rebel chief nt the confluence of the Siseilya. The con-
fidential iservniit of Lek welin is, with me now OH hoard
the launch, which in Si %mall we could nit bring more of
them down, though they were anxious to coins in ser-
•iiii.
We found the country in a state of war. and the Por-
tugurne were too hit .y with that to help its with canoes.
It in finklie.l now, mid lily old friend, Major Lecanl, at
once &minted us with luggage ; but it lies quite ilepopu-
lated the Intul adjacent to the river. We see the river
in II th at itn very lowed ; and, an it spreads out
into from one to thre- ussilos in width, the broad parts
are very difficult. When we get up to Lopata our diffi-
culties vanish, for above that point it is in one or two
cliannoln of about 1,000 or 1.200 yards broad. I iultuire
its nix. more than ever. When I cense down in anomie
it was full, and I saw but one channel where now are
two or thins'. If the Portutneme would be at the
,cpeese id a few Mien driven io to effect what "snags"
sonietimes do now, deep channels might be mecum, for
the whole year. I'lley are going to build a fort and

you I shall always look back upon this period with &free.

prayer that the Divine blessing, both in things temporal
and spiritual. may rent on those with whom it has been
the means of bringing me into a pastoral relation.
You ere pleased to express a generous appreciation of

that I atu deeply conscious how imperfectly the
important and responsible duties of my Mace have
been performed, and I cannot therefore be too
grateful to you for the favourable light in which
you view then'. In whatever way I may have been
uaeful to any, either in my public or private ministra-

Hiin, who alone " giveth the increase," for accepting

always be a great consolation to me that they should
have been instrumental in winning the esteem and
approbation of all classes of any parishioners.
I must not conclude without thanking you for your

you to have the goodness to exorese to the subscribers
the sense I entertain of their kindness and liberality,
and to assure them that I shall always regard the long
list of their names, whether they have contributed
pounds or pence, as • record of equally highly valued

N FM' (WK.—Since the account which appeared of the
experiments made at Chatham with Use newly-invented
breech-loading gun the invention lout attracted a great
amount of interest. the niodel having been inspected by I
several of the most et tt ill ent officers belonging to the I
Royal Artillery and the Royal Engineer's, with other
persons qualified to give an opinion, all of whom are
unanimous in pronouncing it one of the moot valuable
inventions of the day. The urxlel, which is of brass,
and only four inches in length from the breach to the
muzzle, lice been subjected to Use moat severe testa, mid
always with the wet complete and satisfactory results.
The inventor, Mr. Robert Worry, Armoury Sergeant of
the 3rd battalion at Chatham, has made repeated experi-
m•ista with it in the presence of • large number of officers
connected with the Chatham garrison, the resulte being
as satisfactory as they were astonishing. The model
gun, although of the diminutive length stated, propelled
the ball to • distance of at least :100 yarla, doing effective
execution at 100 yards. With the greatest ease the
gun is made to fire 10 rounds per minute, and on one
OCCIII6OII s)rounds were fired in 7 seconds hula! than five ,
minutes, the shot at each discharge striking ass object
placed at 100 yards distance. Notwithstanding Use rain- ,
dity with which the model was loaded and fires], the guts
remained as cool at the Ghee of the experiments ass it waa
at the oominencement, the opening at the breach admit-
Ling *current of air to pus through the gun, thus
entirely doing away with the serious evils resulting
from the beating of cannon caused by incessant firing,
which it is well known, will in • comparatively short
time render • piece of orrluance almost useless. Mr.
Worry is now engaged oonspleting a model of his breech
-
loading cannon of touch larger diusesiaions, for the pur-
poss.°, submitting it to the Duke of Cambridge. This
gun us of wrought iron and 18 inches in length, the into-
ner of the bore being tilled no the mine principle as the
ordinary Enfield rifle musket. The bell to he used will
be the conical shaped ride bullet, which, however, will
be covered with • composition coating of a peculiar ohs,
