REPLY OF THE EMPEROR TO THE
ADDRESS FROM THE SENATE.
PARIS, DISC. 22.

The Emperor made the following reply to the
address of the Senate, presented by the deputation
yesterday :
"Good is the sole motive power of my actions
both at home and abroad. I desire the appeasing
of passions with concord and union. I direct all
my wishes to the moment when the great questions
which divide governments and peoples will be
pacifically solved by European arbitremeat. This
wish was that of Napoleon, when he wrote
from St. Helena, that to fight in Europe
is to make civil war.' May not this great thought,
a Utopia in the past, shortly become a reality
It is always an honour to proclaim a principle tend-
ing to remove the prejudices of another age. Let
us unite our efforts for this noble end, and let us
ouly study obstacles to vanquish them, and incre-
dulity to confound it."
The Moniteltr of this morning publishes the cir-

this occasion 65 have pealed, a result which the council
cannot but regard as eminently satisfactory. One-third
of the commissions having been announced for the
Royal Engineers, the 7f cadets first in order of merit
who elected for that service are recommended for it sc-
cordiogly ; the remainder are reoommeoded for commissions
in the Royal Artillery. The examiner in fortification con-
siders the examination in that subject very satisfactory,
giving evidence of very careful and thorough instruction,
and generally of diligence and ability on the part of the
cadets. The examiner in surveying reports that a fair pro-
portion of the class have done their work with the required
degree of accuracy. The council are happy to observe that
there are no failures in this subject. The examiner in
chemistry considers that the result of the first division is
very fair, bat reports the majority of the papers of the
second division as of very inferior quality.
In natural sciences the examiner reports an evident defi-
ciency of reading, as well as of practical study, especially in
the branch of practical geology. The above subjects were
included in the examinations for commissions. In those
that follow, the gentlemen cadets of the second or third
class were finally examined, and the marks gained in them
will be carried forward to their final examioation. In mathe-
matics the examiner considers the result as eminently malls.
factory. Scene of those who have obtaioed the highest
marks exhibit the two cooditions of industry and mathe-
matical power, and should they pursue further their
mathematical tudies the examiner is of opinion that they
are capable of attaining considerable scientific distinction.
The examiner in practical geometry reports the answering
of the cadets to have been better than on any former
occasion in which he had examined.

such payments after the lame of six months from the time

the commimioners of customs having just published an
order that these securities shall be so received in each half
year succeeding that in which they are dated. In London
they are to be left ooe day for examination, and at the pro-

THE DANISH CONSTITUTION.
ALTONA, Dm. 22.

The electoral law comprised in the constitution of
the 18th ult. has been promulgated in Schleswig
under the royal sanction of the 4th inst.

. .
The West of England papers record the death
of Mr. John Holman, as eminent machant, of Topsham,
near Exeter, and a princely benefactor of that town. He
was chiefly instrumental in originating and sustaining them
useful shipping insuring clubs known as the Western Clubs.

Colonel You.; R. E., then read the following report
from Major-General Sandham, lieutenant-governor of the
institution :—" I have the honour to report to your Royal
Highness that the whole of the gentlemen mdete of the
lint class, who have been under examinatioo, are qualified
for oominiasious in regard to conduct, proficiency in military
exercises, and discipline. The monthly returns of the junior
classes throughout the half-year have shown that a satis-
factory emulation and exertion has existed generally
throughout the academy, and the results of the examination
of the classes show that those reporta were well founded.
The responsible and sub-divisioul officers and corporals
have carried out their duties satisfactorily, with but few
exceptions, and io a manner to uphold discipline, and to en-
courage and keep up a proper feeling and bearing amongst
the cadets ; and, on the whole, I feel justified in making a
favourable report of the company, although I had
occasion to bring to your Royal Highness's notice
some irregularities which occurred about two months
ago, and which I feel assured were confined to a
very inconsiderable number of the cadets, and that
the general feeling of the company is entirely opposed to
those irregularities ; since that period the conduct of the
company has bean irreproachable- The officers through.
out the establishment have conducted their several duties
with firmness and judgment. The professors and masters
have shown a zeal and judgment in the performance of
their responsible duties that has led to the favourable re-
' port lam able to make to your Royal Highness. The drills
and especial military exercises, riding gymnasium and re-
pointory drills, have been carried out as fully u the time
that could be devoted to those inertness would admit."
The successful candidates forcommiesions were then called
to the front, and the number of marks gained by each in the
several branches of study read over, when his Royal
Highness announced that commissions would be awarded
as follows :—For the Royal Engineers : Messrs. Miscall,
Buckaill, Wood, El.dale, Savage, Kirkwood, Clayton, Cor-

' the chair. A report was brought ep from the building act
and general purposes committee io reference le the proposed

The report was agreed to. A report was brought no frail
the streets committee submitting the proposed bye-lens of
the Charing-croes RailwComny fertile managemeet ef
their station, and recommending that those bye-laws should
be approved by the board. The motion was pot and agreed
to. A communication was received from the St. Gilee's
district board, culling the attention of the board to the num-
ber of proposed new railways in the metropolis, mine by
means of tunnels sad others by open cuttings, which were
projected without any regard to a general system for the
relief of the increasing traffic; and they suggested that a
parliamentary committee or a government commission
should be appointed to madder the beet mate of improving
the thoroughfares between distant points. They also sag.
gested that all rail way schemes should be subordinate to
plans for iruprosing the thoroughfares of the metropolis.
The commuoication was referred to the streets 000to.ittee
for consideration and report. Some minor matters were
disposed of, sod the board adjourned until the Ist January.

The Duke of CAMMLIDGE then proceeded to distribute the

"Founded by the British inhabitant, of Calcutta to comme-
morate the eminent services of Major-General Sir George
Pollock, C.C. B , and awarded to the most deserving cadet
of the season." For exemplary conduct: to Mr. J. Hunter,
• regulation sword. The remaining prises, consisting of
tel sextants, mathematical instruments, book s, At. :
To Mr. , three prises, for first artillery, second artil-
lery, and first fortificarime • to Kr. Mowbtay. three prtus,
for second artillery, second topography, and geolomr ; to
Mr. Buekoill, three prizes, for chemistry , natural philoso-
phy, andpractical naschanics: to Mr. Rioelson, three Prim,
for second mathematic, third fortifications, and first prac-
tical geometry; to Mr. Ottley, two prises, for first topogra-
phy and second fortifications ; to Mr. Goschen. two prism
for Hindustani mid first mathematics ; to Mr. Pulfoird, two
prises for first mathematics and practical geometry ; to
Mr. Smith, for first French ; to MriopCiunt for mooed
French ; to Mr. Haddock, for third ; to Mr.
Howard, for first landscape drawing, and r. O'Grady, for
second landscape drawing. His Royal Highness them ad-
dressed the cadets in the following terms. He observed—
that it afforded Lim much pleasure to receive such favour-
able reports from the couocil of military education and
the lientenantgovemor of that institution. He wished to
impress upon the minds of those cadets who were about
to receive commissions in her Majesty's service, that they
must not ceesider their education completed. When they left
those walls they would enter upon • career which demanded
of them to motions their education and endeavour to keep
pace with the spirit of the age. The corps of Royal
Engineers and Royal Artillery were esseetially scientific,
and this was in every respect an inventive and scientific
age, therefore it was incumbent upon them, if they desired
to be really efficient offers, to make themselves acquainted
with those improvements and discoveries which were con-
stantly arising. Hs knew many Milers who had made
themselves truly *destine after obtaining their cam
=Minoan, and be hoped that the cadets present
would on • future occasion emulate their example. But
there was another important thing requisite to constitute a
good and efficient officer, and that waa discipline. Without
strict discipline the efficiency of the British army could sot
be maintained, and be believed that an officer who was a
strict disciplinarian would not only be more respected. but
prove moat valuable to his corps. Whilst, however, be was
• strict advocate of discipline, he would remind them that
there were two ways to carry out discipline. It might be
carried out ipso uonecemezdy severeasd offeasivemanner, or
with tact, and an endeavour to make it as little offensive as
possible. The most valuable officer was one who
had the skill to adopt the latter plan. and who,
whilst firmly maintaining that strict discipline which was
essential for the welfare of the service, would still
be respected and honoured by all those with whom be came
into contact. His royal highness and staff then witnessed
• series of gymnastic exercises carried out by • number of
the cadet, under the able direction of Sergeant Griffith.,
and subsequently proceeded, at half past nee o'clock, to
the common, where the troops were drawn up is review
order as follws :—Tbe batteries of Royal Horse Artillery
on the right, the field batteries on the left in close column
of batteries at quarter intervals, and the infantry com-
prising the 13th Brimide, Royal Artillery. the Royal Engi-
neers, and the Woolwich division of Royal Marioes
Light lofantry in the centre, io contiguous quarter
distance column. The force having beau lamented,
marched past at slow and quick time, and retired
to barracks. The duke and staff then proceeded to the
Royal Artillery riding-house, and withered the 6.3 cadets
to whom commissions had bean awarded go through •
course of equeetriso exercise, and after pertains of refresh-
emote at the officers' measroom his royal highness and the
officers who accompanied him left Woolwich at three o'clock,
amidst • mooed salute of 21 guns from the Green-hill
I battery.

THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 22, 1863.

POLAND.

The following correspondence from Warsaw,
dated 16th inst., is published in the Breslau Ga-
mete

•
I know not whether the Russian organs which regard
Lithuania as pacified are themselves dupes, or endeavour
to dupe Europe. That the national movement in Lithuania
is not dead, is preyed by many facts, among others
.brz
incident which has lately occurred in the two high o
at Kowno, where two of the professors who tried Ruasifice-
lion were beaten by the students, and called traitors, and
now do not venture to appear in the town without a police
escort. Lest Thursday a number of shops were closed in
Bialystok by the soldiery, and afterwards searched. The
question naturally arias), why these outrages ahoold have
been committed in a pacified country. The officisl Dziennik,
of Warsaw, has returned to the subject of torture in Po-
land. It now states that torture has been abo-
lished by an Impend ukase. I can affirm in
the most positive manner that, notwithstanding
this ukase, many persons have been tortured in
Poland by the Russian government. The Dziennik
also publishes the news that on the 22nd ult. some insur-
gent,' shot a pensioner in the village of Fslki, and that
Jankowski, one of the inhabitants, wee implicated in the
affair. Rio house was burnt by order of military comman-
dant, the furniture given to the relatives of the deceased,
and a tax of 500 roubles imposed on the village, and of 10
roubles on each house within • distance of 5 vents from it.

The following is Major Rembajlo's report of
his successful engagement at Mierzwin, nest
Pinozow, on the bth :

On the btb, at 6 a.m., a peasant informed me that the
Russians were approaching, but could not say whence and
in what numbers. I then ordered the baggage to be packed,
and prepared to march, intending to attack the Russians.
After marching a vent from my camp in the direction of
Turow, I was attacked in the rear by the enemy. Five
horsemen, who formed the rear-guard, fired at the Russians,
and at the same moment the enemy's infantry began some
rapid file firing. Being in a wood I could not manoeuvre
with my detachment, sad accordingly I ordered my column
to charge with the bayonet. My troops, who were for the
first time under fire, and were attacked on a very narrow
road sod in • most disadvantageous position, yet bravely
marched forward in colamo, with myself and the other
officers at their head, to • place when • clearance in the
wood enabled them to deploy. The Russians were here at a
distance of fifty paces from us. I then called the charge,
and rushing forward with my rifle io my hand, and followed
by my troops, drove the Rennes from their position. My
men, encouraged by their first success, then pursued the
enemy and completely dispersed them. Thrice did the
Russians attempt to stand their ground, but each time we
drove them back with the bayonet. In this way we pursued
them about three vents out of the wood into a field near
the village of Mierzwin, meeting on our rand about twenty
Russian dead bodice and a waggon with provisions, which
we captured. On entering the field we continued the pur-
suit as far so a hill which lies between the village of ier-
awin the wood. The Russians, taking as many of their
dead and wounded with them as they could, fled in disorder
to Mierzwin. . _ .

I then assembled my detachment, consisting of 100 In-
fantry. on the bill, and we knelt down and thanked Provi.
demos for our victory. The Russians being safe in she village
and beyond pursuit, I then returned to my camp. As far
an my experience as an old soldier enabled me to estimate
the numbers of the Russians, I should say there were about
400 infantry and 100 Cossacks. My detachment consisted
of two companies, numbering 120 infantry, and 14 cavalry.
On our side the following were killed :—Captaln Gregory
Saint-Zeno, Lieut. Louis Kocinpinski, of Cracow ; Sad
Lieut. Antony Zabiertiwski, and six rank and file.—Oamp
