" Yesterday, at a meeting of the mambas who
form the majority in the Chamber of Deputioil
Baron Ricasoli explained the difficulties which
oppose the oomph ion of the ministry, and said h‘
believed that the Cabinet, as at present constituted;
was sufficient for the exigencies of the state. A
long discussion ensued, in the course of which
several deputies spoke in favour of the ministry,
but no decision was come to."

that there should be a real and direst representation of the
locality. (Loud cheers.) That given, other Wogs would

the incidence and amount of the direct and indirect taxation

PRUSSIA.

The following official letter of the King has been
published :
. . .

It is fifty years ago next March that the Prussian people,
on the appeal of my father, took up arena in the great
contests of the war of freedom. I believe it right that a
fête should be instituted to celebrate the commencement
of the noble deeds of arms of that period, which has fur-
nished the history of Prussia with its brilliant pages, and to
commemorate the establishment of the Lendwehr. It will
be 100 years in March next since the Seven Years' War was
ended by the glorious peace of Hnbertsburg, which esta-
blished the position of Prussia as a great power, and for
which we ought still to thank God. I invite the minister to
submit propositions to me as to the manner in which these
fetes should be celebrated.

(Signed)_

WILLIAM.

A Prussian clergyman named Schiukel has pub-
lished in the Gazette of the Protestant Church a re-
markable article upon the late addresses to the
King. He argues that these addresses have nothing
in common with religion, and that the clergy ought
carefully to abstain from signing them. " Tho
addresses," he says, "do not confine themselves to
existing rights ; all of them by allusions, more or
less clear, incite the King to use against the Cham-
ber of Deputies not his right but his power. What
is the true meaning of these invitations 1 It is that
the King should break by force the resistance of the
Chamber ; and does not this lead, if pursued to its
legitimate consequences, to the wish that the King
should violate the constitution ? And whoever de-
sires this, does he not urge the King to violate his
oath?"

SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW.

The annual meeting of the Smithfield Club took place in
theclub-room at one o'clock. Lord Fevenham, the president,
occupied the chair, and was supported by the Earl of Dart-
mouth, Lord Barters, Lord Tredegar, Lord Walsingham,
the Honourable General Hood, and a large number of other
members. The award of the judges and other routine buil.
new /win bees disposed of, on the motion of Mr. Torr, the '
Right Hon. Lord Tredegar. was elected president for the en-
suing year, and the vice-presidents and other officers were re-
elected. General Hood brought forward a motion of which he
hadgiven notice,"That the future management of the Smith.
field Clab be vested in a council, consisting of the president,
vice.presidents, trustees, hon. secretary, and 24 members,
one third to retire annually, but eligible for re-election.'•
This was carried, and twenty-four members of the council
were appointed. Another important motion was made by
Mr. Milward in reference to the Se. day. The general

understanding was that instead of (as has been the case this
year) having all the cattle M on the Friday and the judg-
ments made on the Saturday, the cattle shall arrive on the
Saturday as formerly, thus giving them a day's rest ; that
double the number of judges should be appointed ludo:wind*
about one o'clock on Monday, at which time the show should
be opened as a "five shilling" day. This view was generally
accepted, and referred to the newly-appointed council to
be carried out. After the disposal of some routine business
and the election of 36 new members, the meeting adjourned.
The sales effected amongst the prise animals in the cattle
and sheep claws were pretty brisk yesterday, more espe-
cially in the latter, and the number of non-prize animals ap-
peared to have a very good sale. In the pig classes most cf the
prizes were sold on Monday, but the gold medal pen, belong-
ing to Mr. Baker, of Christchurch, Hams. and which really
am beautiful specimens, still remains undisposeel of. There
is a very important matter which we would suggest to the
authorities requires an immediate remedy. The show-
boards indicating the character of the animals work upon
pivots or screws, and the public for their own gratification
were turning them round in all directions, the effect of
which was not only to destroy uniformity, but frequently
to Indicate as a prize some animal which bad not
gained one. The attention of the authorities was directed
to this, and it will no doubt be remedied.
The number of visitors admitted through the turnstiles
from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. were 27,141.

DRAMA.

STRAND.

Mr. Charles Rice, a low comedian, who has
long been • favourite at several of the London outlying
theatres, made his first appearance at this house Last night,
in the old farce of the "Dancing Barber." As the character
chosen by Mr. Rice requires nimble legs rather than brains,
and sound wind rather than sound humour, it cannot be
fairly taken as • test of an actor's merits. It represents •
wild harlequin of private life, who dances in and out of the
most impossible scrapes, and who keeps the stage and actors
in such • state of physical and mental excitement, that the
riot tot might be read at any point of the performance with
the most perfect propriety. Mr. Rice was well received
by a crowded audience, and well supported by several
picked members of the company ; but beforegiving a decided
opinion upon his merits, we should prefer seeing him in
some part requiring more artistic acting.

THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 10, 1862.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE SHOW.-( THIS DAY.)

The public attendance at the show to-day pro-
misee even to exceed that of yesterday. Up to one o'clock
the number of visitors was about 7,001, or 1,000 in exam of
the number up to the same hour on the drat shilling day.

The Hamburg papers announce that the Senators
Godeffroy, Sloman, and nilting, Consul A. J. &bin, and
Herr Oswald have bun invited by the French government
to give evidence before the committee on the navigation
laws in Peril. These gentlemen are amongst the moat con-
siderable shipowners of Hamburg, representing together
shipping to the extent of 40,000 teas.

The Provincial Diet of the province of Branden-
burg, sitting at KiMisberg, has decided by a majority of 78
saes to 12 that its sittings shall be public.
The Cardinal Archbishop of Paris has issued a
circular to the curates of his diocese, reminding them that
on the third Sunday in Advent they are to collect Peter's
pence. The archbishop says tbst he expects " pious gene.
malty'. to be exercised.

A letter from Veoi,.:e of the 2nd says :--"We
three days ago, had • higher tide than has been seen for is,
great length of time. All Saint Mark's-square, the Rive
del Ferro, and a great part of the live del fichiavoui were
flooded. The salt water penetrated into several of the public
fountains, and a great want of potable water has since been
experienced."

An accident has just happened at the Bordeaux
theatre, somewhat similar to that of lUD's. Livry, but,
happily, not so serious. The dress of Yidlie. Lamoreux,
one of the dancers, caught fire, but the accident was dis-
covered in time to enable the flame to be extinguished by
one of the scene shifters promptly enough to prevent any
injury worth speaking d.

The subscriptions for the monument to Count
Cayour amount alre►dy to the sum of 22,000/. The moms-
meet is to be a statue of bronze, with bas.reliefa round the

STORING OF FILTIIOLEL'II.

The General Purposes Committee made a report in re-
ference to the application of certain parties, in conformity
with the statute, for permission to store, in one case, 200 I
gallons, and in the other, 400 gallops of petroleum upon
their premises, and they recommended that both applies- 1
tions should be rejected.
Alderman Sir F. G. MOON having put a question with refe-
rence to the report,
Alderman FINNIS said that the committee had come to
the resolution that was before the court partly from their
own knowledge of the dangerousand inflammable character
of the material in question, and partly from a very careful
report made by Mr. Catty, their own officer, as to the unfit-
ness of the premises respecting which the application was
made for the reception of such a material ; and as they be-
lieved it would be dangerous to the public if the applications
had been acceded to, they felt no hesitation, upon the
pounds he had alluded to, in recommending the court to
reject the applications. (Hear. hear.)
Alderman SIDNEY observed that there was not the least
doubt that this article was of the most dangerous descrip-
tion, and this was so much the opinion of practical persona
that, in every case where petroleum was permitted to be
stored, the insurance oftiNse required an extra premium for
insuring the buildings on each side. This court was acting
solely in the interest of the public in refusing applications
like those now nuder consideration, andany parties who felt
themselves aegrieved might go to the Court of Queen's
Bench and review the decision that had been arrived at by
the magistrates of the City of Loudon, if they thought
proper to do so. (Hear.)
Alderman W. LAWRENCE said, it appeared to him that a
very grave responsibility devolved upon the magistrates in
reference to this matter. (Hear, hear.) It was their
duty to take care that no inflammable and dangerous
material Elie petroleum should be stored in places where an
explosion might be productive of most serious mischief.
The act of parliament gave a power to anyone to store
petroleum to an extent not exceeding forty gallons in any
place without a license, and in his opinion this was too
. large a quantity. (Hear, bear.) The magistrates of the
• City of London were, however, determined to do all in their
power to protect the public, and the decision arrived at by
the committee was calculated to effect this object. (Hear.)
The report was then unanimously agreed to.
Some matter of a private character was then discussed
with closed doors, after which the court adjourned.

MURDER AT ULLINGSWICK BY A TleK ET

OP-LEAVE MAN.

HEREFORD, WEDNEJ4DAT

Yesterday there was considerable eicitessle.
crested here, by flying rumours of a horrible murder heath;
been committed in the village of Cllingswick, about sigh..
miles from Hereford, on the Worcester road. The facts,
they have yet been ascertained, ars these. A girl WOO
Elisabeth Corbett, residing es servant with a Mr. tikeiratt. a
farmer living in the neighbourhood, was sent about dusk
Monday evening to the village of Ulliopwick, for loins eh+
goods for her mistress. The shop to which she bad
is also • beer-house, and, while waiting for lb, articles
she required for her mistress, there came is a men liana
William Hops, • notorious character, who some rent, ago
was transportedfrom the neighbourhood for burglary, i,ut who
returned, after serving part of his time, on a ticket of leave.
Hope asked the girl to drink, but she declined, sod left the
house as soon aa she had been supplied with the
goods. Soon afterwards Hope. who had been on qsaa,t,,,
terms with the girl, also left the house. The rp•l dal
return to her master's residence, and on search being lost,.
toted her body was found lying under a tree in a meadow
near the shop to which she had been sent, and what,
she would have to pass through on her way home. The
fortunate girl's shawl was thrown over her face ; there woof
marks of blood near the tree, and the ground was disturb-1
as though there had been a struggle on the spot. The pollee
however, discovered marks of blood in another pat t of the.
field, and also an impression on the turf with singular
indentations, such as would be produced by • pan
of trousers l'ke those worn by Hope ; and the impresiou
consequently is that Hope ravished the poor girl at this spot,
placing the fingers of one hand over her mouth to prevent
her crying out, and, pressing the thumb very tightly on the
windpipe, causing death by strangulatioo, and that fiod•
log his v:ctim was either dead or dying be
carried the body and placed it in the position in which it
was found under the tree, c"sturbiog the ground for the
purpose of producing the appearance of • struggle harms
there taken place. Hope was immediately apprehended,
having made no attempt to escape. The deceased is said to
be an illegitimate girl, whose mother now resides is Bir.
mingham. The inquest is fixed for Thursday.
