Tae most painful spectacle that the cotton
famine could produce would be a decline in the
high spirit of the Lancashire people, and a
preference, on the part of any considerable
number of them, of charity and play over inde-
pendence and work. The eagerness with which
some allegations of such a tendency have been
denied is gratifying ; but it is certain that there
have been some instances of refusal of rescue from
dependence ; and there can be no question
of the daily increasing peril which besets
the characteristic virtue of our highest class of
operatives. Connected with this is the very serious
mischief that the influence of too many of the em-
ployers and local authorities goes to encourage the
spirit of dependence, and to disincline the people
to accept invitations to other districts, and into
other occupations. We heard • great deal at the
beginning about keeping the people together, and
about preserving their aptitude for their peculiar
work ; and now, though we hear less about it, we
find the effort to compass the thing whichever way
we turn. It seemed plain to many observers at
the outset of the distress that, though a certain
proportion might very properly be so " kept
" together," it could not possibly —be
right to propose such a method 'for
the whole body, as under no circum-
stenos, could there be work for them'
all when the manufacture revives ; and now
it has become so certain that there must be a long
restriction of that branch of industry, that society
will not tolerate any attempt to keep four or five
millions of our people dependent on an occupation
which will not maintain half of them. Society is
not so slow and dimsighted as not to perceive that
the operatives have before them the prospect of
miserably low wages, unless a very large propor-
tion of them become presently absorbed in other
industries. If the operatives themselves did but
foresee their doom in this respect, they would
quarrel with no labour test that has as yet been
put in practice. They would see how the neces-
sary diversion to other employments is helped by
any sort of labour test by which a certain
number is pretty sure to be transferred from
cotton spinning to other work. If the test
of open air labour is found more or less
agreeable by young men, they may be very ready
to go to work on colonial land ; and if it is found
detestable, there will be all the more readinep to
find something else to do. Sewing for the 014
and primers and slates and reeding-rooms for the
men and boys, are all very well for a short and
specified time ; but when it has become certain
that the former activity of the manufacture cannot
possibly be restored, it is high time to be re-
moving from the cotton districts the surplus
operatives and a due proportion of other classes
(as engineers and machinists), which have grown
big with the prosperity of the manufacture, and
must diminish again very rapidly if they are not to
suffer utter ruin.

What are the facts ? There is at this moment
an argument between two parties who should
understand the case, whether the distress is moat
due to the deficiency of cotton now, or to the over-
production of fabrics • year or two ago. Both
causes are operative, however the question of pre-
cedence is settled. It has to be considered, not
only that, by common agreement, there cannot be
more than half a supply of cotton ; but that, by
the inordinate recent production, a large proportion
of the capital of the employers is locked up. The
capital which should set men and 'notarial to work
is stowed away in mills and machinery which will
be closed for a long time to come. These mills
have called into existence a vast amount of
engineering, mechanical, and other industry, which
is now suffering as much as the spinning and
weaving. Not only has this industry, now so
suffering, overstocked Lancashire with mills and
machinery, but it has brought up other countries to
• capacity for competition with us ; and in this way
there is at once the mischief of a disabling of
capital at home, and a loos of custom abroad.
Such being the state of things, it seems plain
enough that we ought to be removing to the colo-
nies the people who cannot expect at home a
renewal of their former prosperity, nor even any
proper support at all.

This leads on naturally to • consideration of the
proportion borne to each other, under the new
circumstances, of the several requisites to the
cotton manufacture. The.. requisites are, Sat,
capital under two forms—that which is fixed in
the mills sad the machiesry, and that which is
continually passing round in the purchase of ma-
terial and the payment of wages; secondly, the
raw material ; and thirdly, the labour of the ope-
ratives. Now, not only is there • great Ices of
capital from the mills and machinery being useless
and deteriorating, but there is a total suspension of
the profits which should naturally repair the waste
of capital, and keep up the wages fund. We are
supplied from various quarters with such state-
ments of what the losses will be by next Mid-
summer that we fear to copy the figures. As for

We sincerely hope that we are not premature
in our remarks when we congr►tulate London on
the prospect of some slight improvements. The
demolition of Middle-row, the clearance of Holy-
well-street, the levelling of Holborn-hill, and the
abolition of metropolitan turnpikes, are not yet
accomplished, but there is a prospect of getting rid
of two offensive eyesores. If a paragraph in our
impression of yesterday contains no exaggerated
statements—if it points truly to a much-needed
and long-looked-for conclusion—those hideous,
fruitless houses which have so disfigured Snow-hill
and Stamford-street will no longer be allowed to
defy all sense of decency. For five-and-twenty
years they have reflected every diseased whim of
their " eccentric" owners ; they have stood by the
roadside like black barren spectres ; they have not
only been blighted themselves, but the cause of
blight in others; they havebeen laughed at, sneered
at, and trembled at by half a generation ;they have
oocupied public ground without performing public du-
ties ; they have been profitless themselves, and worse
than worthless to their pariah ; and they have
proved that an Englishman's dwelling may be his
madhouse as well as his castle. Dozens of idle
stories have been planted in them ; dozens of
farthing novelists have fed upon them, and, with
a colony of rata, these are probably the only crea-
tures who have benefited by their existence. For
the love of common sense and the respectable
appearance of our streets, we trust that their
withered reign is now over. Their ownership has
been forcibly disputed by a band of claimants who
cannot surely be infected with the family disease
of " eccentricity." If the men and women who
broke into these houses on Tuesday succeed in
establishing their claim, these hollow gaping home-
steads may be once more warmed into life. If
they fail, perhaps the old maiden relict of that
mysterious owner who disappeared more than
thirty years ago, may be roused by the shock of
the attack into something like rationality.
We have no wish to foster any undue interfor-
race with the rights of property, and are quite
willing to make any sacrifices for the sake of great
principles. For this reason we are glad that no
diem acting in the name of local or
general authority have forcibly relieved us from
these eyesores of Snow-hill and Stamford-
street If the houses bad threatened to fall into
the street, they would have been condemned by
the proper surveyor ; if their owners had thrown
eat prominent projections over the footway, the
Metropolitan Board of Works would at once have
exercised its power of interfering ; but a sun-
blialered, silent frontage, and black, ragged win-
dow holes, being only errors of taste, have been
unmolested for more than a quarter of a century.
Much as we hate such eyesores, we are willing to
wait until they die out or reform themselves,
rather than encourage too much inspection and
official coddling. We know a neighbouring coun-
try where no such blots upon the fair face of •
city could exist for a week ; but France is not
England, and new boulevards are not always the
one thing needful. We know the value and
meaning of government social reform, and we are
not inclined to sell our birthrights for a pail of
whitewash.

RECEPTION OF THE CONSULAR BODY.
SPEECH OF THE VICEROY.
ALEXANDRIA, JAN. 21.
The Consular Body was received by the new
Viceroy yesterday, and presented the following
address :
" The Consular Body has the honour to present
to your Highness its sincere felicitations upon your
happy accession to the vice-royalty. Each of us has
had the honour to know your Highness in private
life, and on more than one occasion to appreciate the
eminent qualities which led your Highness to avoid,
with a reserve as dignified as it was wise, taking
any part in public business during the late govern-
ment.

"Your Highness knew how to obtain respect
by respecting the rights of others. By de-
voting all your activity to improve the condition
of your vast estates your Highness afforded a
model of good government. During the regency
which your Highness was called upon to assume
you were able, despite the difficulties of the posi-
tion, to secure the earnest sympaties of the people
whose destiny was committed to your charge, and
in dealing with the foreign representatives your
Highness gave proof of firmness and justice that
inspired the profound respect of the whole colony.
Such antecedents offer the best guarantee for
the future of Egypt. The European powers
all have the same interest in the progress of a
country as important by its geographical position
as by its fertility and wealth ; and in the develop-
ment of its commerce, the source of prosperity,
as much for the different nationalities which we
represent as for the inhabitants of the country
which your Highness is called upon to govern.
That this common interest cannot be more surely
attained than by the serious and enlightened mind
of your Highness the consular body is deeply con-
vinced, and therefore unites in one and the same
wish, that Heaven may preserve your highness
during many long years for the well being and
prosperity of Egypt."
After having thanked the Consular Body for the
good wishes expressed in the above address, the
Viceroy said :
" I am deeply impressed with the task which
God has imposed upon me by recalling my uncle
and placing me at the head of the government of
Egypt ; and I hope, under the auspices of his Im-
perial Majesty, my august sovereign, to be able to
worthily fulfil it. I am firmly resolved, gen-
tlemen, to devote to the prosperity of the
country which I am called upon to go-
I yarn, all the perseverance and energy whereof
I am capable. The base of all good admini-
stration is order and economy iu the finances.
This order and economy I shall follow by every
possible means, and in order to give an example to
all as well as a proof of my firm intention,
I have resolved upon abandoning the system
cf my predecessors by fixing for myself a
civil list, which I shall never exceed.
This measure will enabie me to devote
to the development of agriculture all the re-
sources of the countay. I shall thus also be
able to abolish the fatal system of forced labour
(core ea) hitherto followed by the Egyptian go-
vernment in its works, and which is the principal
and, I may say, the only cause which has pre-
vented and still prevents the country from taking
all the development of which it is susceptible.
Due consideration shall also be paid to the system
of free trade in governmental measures, which will
cause comfort to be diffused among all classes of

availing itself of a quibble in the matter of the
Princess Barberini. The France admits that her
wrest " cannot be raised to the dignity of a
diplomatic incident," but it insinuates that France
has interfered in her favour in a private and
unofficial manner, and that her release will pro-
bably be the consequence of this interference. The
France says nothing more about astrologers, but it
sticks to its text as to the anti-French tendencies
of Ismail Pacha, and Touches to warranty a "well-
informed journal on Eastern questions," the
Mestager du Medi, which " fears " that the new
Viceroy will not follow in the steps of Said Pacha.
No Italian newspapers have been received for the
last two days. The France says that the non-
delivery of them has been hitherto attributed to
delay of the mails by floods, but it now thinks
that they have been stopped in consequence of their
hostile comments upon French policy.
The Daily News is seized.
The Nation pronounces strongly against the
doctrine of the France that government should not
interfere at elections in cases where the rival can-
didates are equally "devoted." The Nation is for
interference always, and under all circumstances.
Universal suffrage cannot, it says, go right unless
the government guides it. M. Granier de Csa-
manse, the author of the above article, is to draw
up the address. The debate in the Corps Legisla-
tif will come on more speedily than it did last year,
and efforts will be made to cut down the speeches.
M. Jules Fevre will, however, certainly speak on
the Mexican question.
The Opinione Nationale, while deprecating as
warmly as the government journals the idea of
the Pope being under English protection, reminds
them that Pius VI. and Pius VII. (as a prince of
the church, Cardinal Bends, testifies) both invoked
English aid against France, and were within an
ace of taking refuge on English soil. Pius VII.,
when held a prisoner by Napoleon 1., attempted to
to fly to "Malta," but was prevented by Bonaparte'
getting wind of the conspiracy. There is, there-
fore, nothing new or extraordinary, as the Nation
and France would have it thought, in Pius IX.
providing himself with heretic friends in certain
contingencies. " Let us, therefore," says the
Opinion Nationale, " keep vigilant watch against
all evil designs, whether beyond the mountains or
beyond the seas."
The name of the gentleman appointed to be
tutor to the Imperial Prince is Monnier, and not
Mercier.

The Prince Imperial had, as is well known, as
gouvernante Mdme. Bruat, widow of the admiral of
that name, and two under-gouvernantee, Mdmes.
de Brancion and Bizot, widows of generals who
died in the Crimea. Two other persons, Miss Shaw
and MdUe. Follet, were also attached to his ser-
vices. Mdmes. Bruat, de Brancion, and Bizot have
now ceased their functions. M. Monnier occupies
at the Tuileries the apartment recently held by
Mdme. de Brancion.
The Bourse was animated, and the Route rose in
consequence of an impression that neither the Bank
of England nor the Bank of France will raise their
dismount this week. The rise in the Route was 20c.
for cash, and 15c. for account ; the closing prices,
70fr. 10c. and 70fr. sc. Mobilier rose 18fr. 75c.
The profession of bill stealing, which is a safe and
thriving one in London, is not extensively practised
in Paris. Somehow or other, the French law has
a way of getting to the bottom of transactions
which in England are carried on with impunity,
under cover of respect for negotiable paper and the
rights of third partite. A case has just occurred
however, in which the Duke de Grammont-Cade-
rousse was the victim. The Tribunal of Correctional
Police yesterday tried a man named Jaumes, au
agent d'affaires, on a charge of havizg embezzled
two bills of exchange for 8,000(r. and 5,000 fr.,
which had been entrusted to him to get discounted.
A woman, named Jeanjean, who cohabited with
Jaumes, was ►lso charged as an accomplice. It
appeared from the evidence that, in the beginning
of last year, the Duke de Grammont-Cederousse
induced a friend, Count de Perigord, to sign two
accommodation bills for the amounts above stated,
and that the duke handed them to dourness, wbo
undertook to get them discounted for him. After
waiting a considerable time without news of the
bills, the duke applied to Jaumes to know
what had become of them. The latter
replied that they had been stolen from him,
and that he did not know in whose hands they
were. That statement was untrue, foe it was soon
discovered that he had given them to two women
with whom he cohabited, one of whom was Jean-
jean, now charged as his accomplice. The Duke
de Caderousse then lodged • complaint with the
police, and warrants were issued against Jennies
and Jeanjean, but both of them have hitherto
managed to elude the vigilance of the police. The

The same influence has made itself felt on the
shores of the Caspian, where till recently the Per-
sians lived in perfect harmony with the other
tribes, as in the Caucasus. Here, too, the women
of the local tribes are now constantly being carried
off by the Persians, and instances have occurred
where the unfortunate victims of their violence
have made away with themselves. It is easy to
trace in these brutal acta the same instigation as that
which produces similar deeds in the Caucasus ; and
Russia is already reaping the fruit of her efforts.
Hostilities have broken out in these regions be-
tween the Christian and Mnssulman races, and
Russia offers money and protection to the former
against the latter.
The Khans of Tartary and Daghestan, who
rule the races situate about the Caucasus and
the shores of the Caspian, and some of whom bad
formerly given considerable aid to Schamyl, are the
chief objects of the attention of the Russian agents.
These are striving hard to persuade the people that
if they cut the throats of their khans and be they
will get not only political liberty, but also a share
of their rulers' possessions. The dislike and suspi-
cion with which Russia is regarded are, however, so
great that these intrigues have been quite ineffectuaL
General Melikoff has been sent to Daghestan as
the military governor, and has brought with him an
individual in the drew; of a Turk, whom he presents
to the leading men of the country as a Turkish pacha
who has been attached to his service by the Sultan
with the view of inducing the people of Daghestan
to submit to the rule of RUSIfiIL No one believes,
however, either in Melikow or the supposed Turk.
Melikow was formerly an Ormian, but has now
assumed the religion of Russia, and is endeavouring
to convert other Ormiana to the same faith, but
with very indifferent success, there being as yet
but five converts. Some months back he proceeded
to Tiflis, and, accompanied by thelKsza, or chief of
the Mussulman church, travelled to all the prin-
cipal towns in the country, where he assembled
all the Mussulmans and harangued them on the
power of Russia, telling them that seven European
kings had waged war against her, that they were
worsted, and that they are now paying tribute to
the Czar. The Mussulmans afterwards privately
inquired of their Kass if all this was true, and
the Kass answered that it was not, but that
if he did not speak as the Czar ordered, be
would be sent to Siberia. Meanwhile Melikow,•as
a further inducement, is stating everywhere that
if the Mussulmans are faithful to the Czar they will
obtain a share of the tribute paid to him by the
above seven kings.

The persecution in the oountry is represented to
be terrible. Numbers of the more respectable
inhabitants have been sent to Siberia for denying
the lying statements of the governor, and the
slightest opposition to the religions propaganda
which Russia is advancing with all its might is
punished by imprisonment.

A militia is being raised, with the object, it is
said, of making some milit►ry expedition in the
direction of Persia or Bokhara. The pay is excel-
lent, and the Russians promise abundance of
plunder as the result of the expedition.

Windsor, was celebrated according to the Roman Catholic
rites at the chapel of the Senate, in Paris, on Tuesday

ceremony. The widows of the Marshal were Count
Random, War Minister; M. Rivet and M. Alfred de
Marbot. Those of Miss Macdonald included Lord Cowley,
the Duc de Termite, and Sir James Martin.
A FRENCH CRITICISM UPON CHARLES DICKENS.
—The Si2ck of yesterday contains a highly eulogistic article,
by M. Legouvi, upon the reading recently given by Mr.
Dickens, in Paris. M. Legouvf says ;—" Charles Dickens
is in our opinion one of the mod remaruble authors of the
present day ; our sympathy for him is profound ; he deem
to us at least equal to Behar. The same penetrating ob-
server, and sometimes as pitiless as our novelist, endowed
like him with the faculty of breathing life into the most
obscure beings, and of explaining the most complex emo-
tions, he appeals more directly to the heart than Belau.
General questions touch him ; the misery of the humble
mows him ; he always endeavours to combat some injus-
tice, to vanquish some prejudice ; his scalpel is not that cf
the anatomist who directs, but of the physician who would
rue ; he is a great writer, an excellent man."
Ma. Cammee Dimwits ut Pura.—lt is with
the greatest pleasure that we are enabled to announce that
this favourite writer, at the earnest solicitations of his nu-
meral:ls friends and admirers, has consented to read, gratui-
tously, two evenings more, at the British Embassy. The
readings will be for the joint benefit of the British Charita-
ble Fund and of the Paris Fund in aid of the Lancuhire
operatives. The selections on each occasion will be from
the most popular works of our illustrious countryman.
They will take place on Thursday, the and Friday, the
30th inst., and full particulars of the programme will be
speedily published. We have reason to believe that in
order to afford the public at large an opportunity of attend-
ing these interesting reunions, the price of admission will
be coosiderably reduced.--Ocifignaiu.
