ASSOWATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE.

The delegates from the various Chambers of Com-
merce in the United Kingdom re.amerabled yesterday mora-
ine at the Westminster Palace Hotel; Mr. Saloum S.
LLOYD presided.
Mr. Wurrwru, of Kendal, proposed the appointment
of a committee to consider whether soy scheme can be sug-
gested to aid the settlement of differeooss of opinion be-
tween large bodies of workmen end their employer', so
to prevent strikes.
Mr. Morin's, Vice-President of the Middles
Chamber, meraded t►e motion, although he feared bthatt
*Wry would not lad to any satisfactory malt.
Colossi ALKOYD sad Mr. Cowmen isepportedthe pro-
position.
Mr. Lome objected to the remolution, because it pot off
for twelve months any active steps in the matter. He
thought that in strikes the mantes were not altogether
blameless, and he therefore recommended independent
arbitration as the only means of preventing strikes.
Mr. lIIIIDDENON, M.P., approved of conferences between
masters sad men as the best mesas of preventing strums,
and gave instances is which they had bean averted by that
maw. _ _ .

Mr. THOS. LLOYD moved an addition to the resolution
as fellows :—" That in the meantime it be a recommende-
to to the Chambers of COODOKOs that they should •11C011.
rage in their respective districts, that in case of trade dis-
putes, the quertion should be left to the settlement of cam.
withers 01 both parties, with independent arbitrators."
The addition wen adopted by Mr. WHITS-ILL, and
to.
A committee, composed of Mr. Whitesll, Colonel
Mr. Collins, sad Mr. T. Lloyd, was appointed to
the question, sad report to the Chambers.
This dosed the programme of the meeting, and the depu-
ties formed themselves into deputations to wait upon Mr.

LATEST iOrnuaGENcE.
PRUSSIA.
The Chamber of Deputies in Prussia persists in
its systematic opposition to the financial projects of
the ministry. A member of the Left has given
notice of a motion to declare that the chamber
refuses any new loan for the construction of rail-
ways so long a. the government shall not hive
recognised the rights of the chamber in matters of
supply. It may be remembered that the ministe-
rial journals have already announced that the go-
vernment, if the budget is rejected, will oontinue
to carry on the administration without it. No one
at Berlin expects that the ministry will dissolve
the chamber., the present state of the public mind
not being of a nature to lead the cabinet to hope
that a new election would be more favourable to
the government.

ISSIIIILLLICSOUS TOPICS.
The Times is brought by the circular of the Sparkish
Weider, unwillingly to the oastelusion that we must de-
peed upon other influences than the desire of the Spanish
ministry for the raising of the blockade of Chili. England
has *ever professed a naked doctrine of non-intervention.
It is the province of the statesman, by a comparison of the
offencecommittedand the amount of suffering which mustbe
indicted upon the world by intervention, to determine when
to interfere and when to abstain, and never were acts of
hostility based on pretexts more futile than those now
advanced by Spain against the Chilian government. It
depends upon the firmness of foreign governments,
and especially of our own, whether the blockade of
Valparaiso 'hall be withdrawn, or whether it shall be
followed up by • bombardment of the town and war to
the lark extremity.
The loss of the Bulldog, and the cirevmstances under
which it occurred, are described by the Times se forming
• pretty predicament, very characteristic of British history.
Our naval forces have been engaged, and we sepia to have
won a battle and silenced every antagonist: but we have
lost a man-of-war, and her captain and mew are dependent
on foreign hospitality. We may possibly have asserted our
national honour, and accomplished something advanthgeous
at the ooet of • six-gun sloop ; or we may possibly have
entangled ourselves in an after which was none of oars,
and which will bring us no profit. Let us hope, not only
for more explanation, but for more satisfactory tidings.
In the late discussions upon university extension, the
compromising good good sense of the head-master of Rugby has,
in the opinion of the Daily Nom advanced the question
a final step. If it be objected that the admission of this
multitude of poor students unattached will revolutionise
and subvert the whole order and custom of college life,
secularism the great seminaries of the church, and democra-
tise the most venerable and oosservativs institutions in the
state, there remiss the question—ls it university exten-
sion or university limitation that we are discussing!
The Herald contends that the owners of the cattle which
it has been found necessary on public grounds to slaughter
are entitled to compensation out of the public funds. It
proposes that the owners should make oath to the
fairness of their claims, thus layiog themselves open to
prosecutions for perjury and for obtaining money under
false pretences if detected. The owner's affidavit should
be supported by • disinterested person's certificate of the
value of the *Diesel killed, and 'leo by a oertificate from
the government inspector that the slaughter was necessary,
and took place in the public interest.

THZ DUCHIES.

BEiUJN, APRIL 25.

- -
The semi-official Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung
of to-day says :—" We are enabled to confirm the
news that Prussia has proposed the convocation of
the Diets of the Duchies on the basis of the elec-
toral law of 1848, or of another electoral law to be
agreed upon by the two great German Powers.
The Diets would discuss the financial condition of
the country, great sacrifice having become neoes-
sary. Prussia will never permit the entry of
Slcswig into the German Confederation without re-
I ceiving an equivalent for the services she has ren-
dered. The policy of Prussia is not to shun any
discussion, but on the contrary to court it, in order
to convince the Duchies that the charge of selfish-
ness which has been applied to her has no founds-
' Lion."

ABDUCTION Or CHILDREN FROM THEIR

MOTHER

At the Southwark Police-court yesterday a
decent-looking female, named Wallace, residing at No 3,
Cornwall-road, Peckham, tame crying before Mr. Woolrych
to ask his assistance to regain her three infant children, who
had been clandestinely taken away from her by her
brigand.
Mr. Woolrych—ls your husband the father of these
children ?
A pplicent—Oli, ra, sir. The eldest is only two years
and a half old, sad the youngest sot more than sine menthe.
lem wretched about them, as I believe they are in the
hands of the priests at the Brampton Oratory.
Mr. Woolrych—Are you a Roman catholic?
Applicant—Oh, no, air; I am not now, but my hus-
band is.
Mr. Woolrycb—Dos be live with you and support you?
• Applicant—Yee, sir; but aim I have changed my Isla.
moo to the protestant faith he has been harsh towards me,
and clatdestinely removed my babes.
Mr. Woolrych—Of course you have asked him where
they were ?
Applinot—Yes, sir, but he refuses to tell me. I have
been a good wife and a careful mother to my children, bat
when 1 Wome a protestant he threatened to remove them
from me, and I have no doubt the priests and nuns have
got them, at Brompton.
Mr. Woolrych—tfave you made inquiries there ?
Applicant—Yes, sir, but I can gain no informatioe about
them. They seem to be lost to me for ever, unties your
worship can assist me.
Mr. Woolryeda-1 cannot mist you, but there is a mode
of promoting open to you at a very oderate expense, by
applying to the Court of Chancery, is forma pauper's, under
Berjeant Tslfourd's Act. You can claim the restoration of
your children, as they are under seven years of age, and
entitled to a mother's protection.
Applicant, crying—What CAD I do to get possession of
them ?
Mr. Woolrych—l can only tell you the legal way to 'set.
I unfortunately have no power to mist you. You must go
to a solicitor.

Applicant—l want my children. Do, sir, help me to get
them, as I know nothing about a solicitor. I snob to bring
up my children in the protestant faith, and the priests,
knowing that, have got them away.
Mr. Woolryoh—Yon say your husband supports you ;
will not he tell you when the children are?
Applicant—No, sir. When I sak.him, he only taunts
me with changing my religion.
Mr. Woolrych —lt to certainly monstrous to take such
young children from the can of their mother, bat I cannot
kelp you. The only way or cheap mode to act is to apply
to the Court of Chancery in forma panperis, under Ser.
feint Taltourd's Aot, for the restoration of your children.
Yours is a sad ass, and lam sorry.
Applicant—What way am I to go about It, sir!
Mr. Woolryoh—Oo to a respectable solicitor, and no
doubt he will undertake your case.
Applicant thanked his worship for his kind attention,
and assured him that the priests at the Brompton Oratory
had got the children, as her husband went there.
The poor woman then left the court crying bitterly.

we collect from his evidence at Bowctreet that
the public confession made yesterday followed one
made to him privately a fortnight ago. Sir THOMAS
Haim, with that paterralcare whisk distinguishes
the English magistrate in dealing with unprotected
prisoners, inquired very strictly of Mr. WAGNER
whether he had influenced the young woman in
making her confession. Idr.4Waolv ea replied that
as to the public contagion in a Court of justice he
had not. But, as we understand hie evidence, his
&nisi did not apply to secret questionings :
Kr. Wager—l wish to maims that many are in the
habit ot coming to confer to ma an a religions 'scolds*, bat
I never held oat soy inducement.
Sir Thomas Henry—Yes, I think you ongbt to mestion
that. Did yea, Is the dolt Waseca induce her to make the
confession ?
Kr. Wegner—No ; I did cot seek her out, or in any way
sib bar to woo to ceafeegioe. She herself wished to do it.
It is possible that if further opportunity were
given Mr. WAGNER would be able to amplify this
statement, and make it still more definite. At pre-
sent, however, it refers to the manner of the young
woman's coming to him, and not to the way in which
he dealt with her when she had come. Supposing
that CONSTANCE KENT, her oonecienoe burdened
with long-concealed guilt, sought Mr. WAGNER out
and voluntarily confessed her crime to him, his
conduct would seem to have been kind, and dis-
creet, and wholly free from blame. Still further
light, however, is wanted on this matter. The law
does not favour the indiscriminate reception of con-
fessions; and even out of the atmosphere of religious
houses, girls of the age of CONSTANCI KANT have
been known to accuse themselves wrongfully of
terrible crimes. As • rule, the public would
sooner see a prisoner attended into court by her
legal than by her spiritual adviser, the director of
her conscience : and this is a wholesome jealousy.
CONSTANCE KENT is the daughter, and grand-
daughter, and niece, of persons afflicted with
lunacy. Hereditary disease may have impelled
her to violence, or it may explain a delusion.
Should the unhappy young woman be convicted of
the terrible crime of murder, we may expect that
it will be because her confession will elucidate,
harmonize, and compact the external circumstan-
tial evidence yet extant, rather than because it is
considered sufficient in itself.

militarf conspiracy has just beenatdiseovered
and immediately suppressed at Valetta,' in Spain.
The affair is serious, for the authors of the plot were
the colonel and officers of the Regiment of Barcelona
garrisoned in this town. It appears that in the night
of the 9th instant the captain-general of the pro-
vince of Valencia, whose suspicions had been raised
for some days, surprised at midnight the colonel,
some officers, and several sergeants of the Bourbon
regiment, assembled together at the barracks.
There wee also present an officer of the provincial
regiment of Valencia. The captain-general had
them arrested. The other officers and sub-officers
having proceeded to make this arrest it might have
been concluded that the plot was of a limited
character. At the same time the informa-
tion received by the captain-general indicated
that a certain number of the inhabitants of
Valencia were to take part in the movement at
the same hour. The captain-general went to the
Casino at 1 o'clock, when this establishment is
closed, and there arrested 13 persons.
It was M. Rubin, civil governor of Valencia, who
gave information to the superior military authori-
ties of the plot which was thus brought to light.
It is certain that the mutiny of the Bourbon regi-
ment, seconded by the inhabitants who joined
them, would have occurred at 1 o'clock in the morn-
ing, had it not been for the active measures takea
1 by the captain-general to suppress this little con-
spiracy. The object of the plot is unknown.
Whether it was a fresh attempt of the progressistas,
or a simple military outbreak, whether isolated or
connected with other garrisons, is completely un-
known at Madrid.
A despatch from Valencia, received on the day
following this event, announces that the town was
in a state of complete tranquillity.
