THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH.

By means of substituting a coil of rata perch&
for a distance of about half a mile, in lieu of "cable,"
which was shortcoming to that extent, the communica-
tion between coast and coast has now been completed.
The gutta percha coil is joined on to the cable out at
sea, where its extremity is secured to a buoy. The
gutta percha that now connects the cable at the buoy
with the French coast, had fortuo.dely been sent over in a
coil of four miles for inland use before the expedition
started, and so far came in opportunely. The cable, in ad-
dition to the buoy already mentioned, is secured to a second
buoy about a mile and a half off the coast. The crew, as
they were towed up from Calais to Woolwich on heard the
Blazer, where she is now in dock, encountered a tremen-
dous passage. The Black Eagle, Captain Hutchins in
commands left Calais with the Blazer at six on Friday
evening, and arrived through a driving sea in Margate
Ronda at 2 a.m. The Blazer having no ballast, and being
nothing bat a mere shell upon the breakers, rolled to and
fro like a porpoise. The crew in the midst of the squall
being incessantly sick, could neither stand on their legs nor
lay down, while the crockery and everything in the old
hulk came rattling about their heads. At Margate the
Monkey government steamer took them in tow to Wool-
wich, and they are now recruiting themselves about the
works at Wapping. The junction of the cable with the
French telegraphs is understood to be proceeding, and also
tke connexion between the South Foreland some four miles
end the telegraph office of the South Eastern Railway Com-
pany in Dover, which will at once give a through tele-
graphic communication with the Continent.

LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S PROGRESS THROUGH
NORTIL WALEB.—It being known at Port Madoc that the
Premier, in his progress through the northern portion of
the principality, would visit that place, or Beddgelert, a
meeting of the gentry and inhabitants of the neighbour-
hood was held at the town hall for the purpose of agreeing
to a congratulatory address "on the occasion of the first
minister of the crown and his family visiting that country."
A meeting consequently took place, and an address having
been adopted, it was presented to his lordship by a deputa-
tion on Wednesday morning, at Beddgelert. His lordship,
in the most offirteons terms, acknowledged the kindness
and good wishes of the residents in the district, and eon-
sented to their solicitation to become a patron of the forth-
coming Madoc Eisteddfod&
MANSION-HOUSE.—Yesterday the Lord Mayor en-
tertained the Lord Ma elect and the members of the
Court of Aldermen at dLner. Covers were laid for 70 in
the loft parlour, and there were also present the Beeseder,
the cWrmen of the several corporations of the City, the
sheriffs, their chaplains, the City officers, and several pri-
vate friends of the Lord Mayor.
ERRATUM.—In an article in the Express of

A HOME FOR KOSSUTH.

TO TILE roma 111 E EXPILT.I3.4.
Sta,—Under thi; heading you inserted several
months since a short but powerful appeal.
Allow me to recall the attention of the public to
the subject through youseolutuns, the natural chan-
nel of sympathy for Ilungary and her sons.
Kossuth will soon be here, freed from the machi-
nations of his enemies, but still an exile. Let us
welcome him, not simply with demonstrations of joy
at his safety, nor with empty professions of respect,
but with the offer of an English home—a worthy tribute
from freemen to the champion of freedom's cause.
The dethroned sovereign always receives succour
from a kindred monarch, and the exiled patriot
should be able to rely with confidence upon the aid
of a free people.
If an appeal were made, the response would be im-
mediate and abundant, and the forwardness of America
in the good work would act as a 'stimulus to oar-
selves.—Yours, J. H.
Lincoln's-ian, Sept. 27.

THE WORKING OF FREE NATIGATION.—We ob-
serve in the reports of last week's markets that although
the aggregate quantity of sugar imported into Europe dur-
ing the last year is not more than in the previous one, yet
the importations into this country have increased by no less
than 46,000 tons, a considerable portion of which has no
doubt been brought by foreign vessels, and consequently
would have gone direct to the continent if the repeal of the
na • • laws had not given the merchants a chance or
a weezhet in this country. Now, this increase in the
of ON article alone supplies, to our mind, •
seems for the considerable increase in foreign
lannalla sawed inwards, about which we read so muchla
des pellerieniet journals. And that being se, we ornsfem

THE NEW APPEAL COURT IN CHANCERY.—Fran
ad after to-morrow (Wednesday) the following clause in

and all powers, authorities, and duties, as well ministerial
as judicial, incident to such jurisdiction now exercised and
performed by the Lord Chancellor, shall and may be had,
exercised., and performed by the said Court of Appeal."
THE APPELLATE JURISDICTION IN BANKRUPTCY.—
On Wednesday next the appellate jurisdiction of the Vies.

Court of Appeal in the Court of Chancery under the re-
oent act 14 and 16 Vic. cap. 83:—. Provided always that

in which the corn was and the bedroom. I lighted him.
In the former room, near the door, I saw him pick up a
copper cap which had not exploded. In the bedroom he
found two other copper caps, one of which had gone off ;
in that room also he found two small shot. There were no
caps or shot in the house before the night of the 13th, to
the best of my knowledge, nor wu there any gun or pistol
in the house.

By the Prisoner—lt was up-stairs, and not down, that I
It the knife. I heard no answer when I asked you If you
ime with intent to mullet as.

Thomas Williams deposed—l searched the prisoner on the
morning of the 14th inst., in the house of the prosecutor,
and found upon him a large clasp knife, a small tin box
containing slugs, a shot bag containing shot, a tobacco box
containing lucifcr matches, a piece of sheet lead, a quantity
of gunpowder in a paper, a piece of candle, and a small
stick, which I now produce.
Police-superintendent Thomas Blossett deposed—On
the morning of Sunday, the 14th instant, the prisoner
was brought to the lock up house at Ross. I searched
him in the 'presence of George Dasbwood, jun., nod
Thomas Williams, constable of Llangollen, and found
concealed in his trousers the pistol I now produce.
I examined it and found that a cap had been exploded upon
it ; it had powder in it, and marks of lead inside the barrel,
but no shot or other charge of lead in it; on the following
Thursday I went to the prosecutor's house, and made a
mi-
note search of the two rooms up-stairs; I found a poems-
' sion-cap in that where the corn was, near the door ; in the
bedroom I found another which had exploded, and two
others which had not ; in the same room I found two shots,
corrosponding in size with those produced by the witoar

The prisoner' who declined saying anything, was fully
committed for trial at the next assizes.
Another charge of burglary in the dwell' -house of
Peter Preece, at Llangarren, on the night of the 6th of Sep-
tember, was clearly established against him. The follow-
ing articles were stolen :—A pair of brass candlesticks, part
of a ditch of bacon, a loaf of bread, part of a cheese, and
other articles, the property of the said P. Preece ; a jacket,
pair of trowsers, neckerchief, a clasp knife, five horses'
topknots, the property of John Powell, son of the prose-
cutor's wife ; three keys, a clasp knife, a tobacco box, a
tobacco tin, pair of stockings, and an account book, the'',
property of James Davis, a lodger.
the prisoner was further committed on a charge of
housebreaking, on the 6th of March last, at the house of
Peter Ashley, at Llangarren, and stealing therefrom a pair
of quarter boots, silver watch, steel chain, watch key, and
two sovereigns.
There were five other charges against the prisoner not
entered into, but which may be made the subject of in-
dietments at the assizes. —Hereford Times.

papal territories is very short, but it is necess._.
effect the present combination, and as a basis for an
extension of the railway system towards Ancona.
The railway system proposed begins with two arms,
one from Piacenza through Parma, and the other
from Mantua, and which will unite at Iteggio, pro-
ceeding thence by Bologna to Pistoja or Prato in the
Tuscan territories, where a union with the Tuscan
railway system will be effected. The Tuscan govern-
ment undertake to complete the line between Pistoja
and Lucca. It is proposed that the several lines shall
be conceded to a company by contract, and that the
governments shall give every support and assistance,
not only by legislative powers, but by affording a
guarantee. 'there is thus a practical step taken for
the advancement of the railway system in Italy.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

A letter from Hamburg, published by the bide-
perodance Edge, says that negotiations have been
commenced, on the part of Austria and Prussia, to
induce the Duke of Augustenbcrg to give up his
claims, in return for a money indemnity. Austria
and Prussia promise to guarantee the duke in the
possession of the whole of his property sequestrated
tie Danish government, on condition of his re-
nouncing all dynastic claims to the succession of the
duchy of Schleswig.

Railway station at King's Cross, has been changedfn name
to " York Road," in accordance with the wish of the inha-
bitants of the neighbourhood.
MEDICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON.—At a special ge-
neral meeting of this society held on Friday, Oct. 10, the
following resolutions recommended by the council were
unanimously adopted: " 1. That in the opinion of this so-
ciety, the practice of homeopathy, or the prescribing medi-
cines in what are called ' infinitesimal doses,' under a pre-
tence that they arc useful in the cure of disease, is founded
in palpable error, is a delusion on the part of the practi-
tioner, a deception nn the public, and manifestly dangerous
to its welfare. 2. That the fellows of the Medical Society
of Landon cannot honourably hold any professional com-
munion with homeopathists. 3. That, consequently, any
fellow of this society who shall hereafter practise homoeo-
pathy, or who shall knowingly meet in consultation any
I professed homeopathist, will thereby render himself un-
worthy of the fellowship of this society."

the Exhibition of 18.51, and being in itself a work of art
and beauty, ought to be preserved as a national memorial of
_ .

that great and successful undertaking.
Mr. J. A. HUGHES, in seconding the resolution, ob-
served that this was the first public meeting which had
plainly declared that the Crystal Palace ought to be pre-
served, but ho trusted it would be the precursor of many
more. The fact that nearly six millions of people had come
together in this building without any hostile feeling being
excited, ought of itself to consecrate it to posterity. As a
specimen of civil engineering, the building was unrivalled;
though composed of the most brittle materials, it was of the
utmost strength. Considering that the building was
already in existence, and remembering the want which had
been felt of such a building, in the metropolis, surely no
one would consent to its destruction. Its extent was such
that it might be laid out so as to comprise a picture gallery,
and sculpture gallery, and a winter garden, interspersed
with statues. (Cheers.)
The resolution was unanimously adopted, as was each of
the suceeding ones.
Mr. RUSSELL moved the second resolution, to the
effect, that it was desirable fur the people of London espe.
cially to bestir themselves in this matter, and, by subscrip-
tions, public meetings, and petitions to the legislature, en-
deavour to preserve the building either fur a winter garden,
or for other purposes beneficial to the public at large. Re-
ferring to the objections which had been raised by Lord
Campbell and other residents of the neighbourhood to the
continuance of the Crystal Palace, he observed that the
doubt which had been thrown on its stability was at once
removed by the fact that it had been daily subjected, for six
months, to a more severe trial than it would ever again be
exposed to. (Hear, hear.) Ile protested against its re-
moval to Battersea; were it erected there it would be a

mere glass house, instead of a hallowed sanctuary, as it was
at present ; sooner let it be destroyed altogether. (Rear.)
It would be an eternal disgrace to England, if. amid the
perpetuity which would be given to the lessons of peace
and concord inculcated by the gathering of all nations in
18.31, the very shrine and temple in which this gospel of
peace was inculcated should be levelled with the ground.
(Cheers.) Reared amidst difficulties and opposition, yet
most triumphant in its success, nothing would be more
suicidal than to destroy the most prominent evidence of the
glorious results of the Cheat Exhibition. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. SUTCLIFFE seconded the resolution.
Mr. T. BEARD moved the adoption of a petition to the
legislature founded on the foregoing resolutions.
Mr. WICKHAM seconded the resolution.
Thanks were voted to the ckairman, and the meeting
then adjourned.

At the conclusion of the reading of the memorial,
Captain M. proposed that copies of it be forwarded
to Lord J. Russell, his Excellency the Lord Lieut.
enant, and also proposed the following resolution:
We, the gentry, merchants, traders, and others connected
with the agricultural interests of this country now assent-
bled in public meeting, do fully concur, and arc prepared
to bear out the statements made in the memorial forwarded
herewith.
Sir Percy Nugent seconded the resolution.
The Rev. Dean Farrelly, P.P. of Ardagh, proposed
the following resolution, which was adopted :
That we also consider the rate of interest charged by the
government as exorbitant and oppressive; charging an im-
poverished country 31 per cent., when it is well known they
can obtain it at a much less sum ; W 3 therefore respectfully
submit that, under the very distrersing circumstances in
which this country is at present placed, this fact affords an
additional ground for expecting the relief we seek.
The sale of the property of Richard H. Becher, of
the county of Cork, was proceeded with at Cork on
Friday and Saturday. The sale realised altogether
the large sum of 32,0801.

TALLOW MARKET.7-THIS DAY,

The market is quiet, with little doing speculatively.
Prices are quoted as follows :—Town Tallow, 38s. nett cash;
Petersburg!' Y. C., on the spot, new, 385.3.1. ; old, 375. 6d.;
last three months, 375. 64. ; January and March, :Pei.
MARK-LANE.—TINS DAY.

There was no alteration in the value of either English or
foreign Wheat this morning ; the limited amount of business
transacted was at rates about equal to those of Monday last.
The demand from the Rhine, for floating cargoes of
Polish Odessa Wheat continues, but the limits are rather
below the ideas of tho holders, and, consequently business
has not vaulted.

Barley, Beans, and Peas sold on much the same terms as
last market day.
The receipts of Oats have been moderate; neverthelecs,
new were difficult of disposal, at former prices, but old
were quite as dear.

In a few instances at the

aces this morning prices of shares were quoted a
shade lower, but the feeling has since become
steadier, and quotations are now as good as at the
close of business yesterday. The arrangements
for the settlement of the account are pro-
ceeding satisfactorily. The " continuations" arc
small, and in some cases a " haekwardation" has been
paid, but the tendency of the rates for carrying over
appears rising, as the jobbers find themselves with
more stock than they had anticipated. The improv-
ing feeling of the market is rather unusual, concur-
rent with a rise in " contanes." Generally speak-
ing, speculative feeling seems in favour of a decline
in price.

Jesuits were about to renounce the order. The

who had broken his ban. The British subject,

Our correspondent says:
" The last exterminating blow has just been
given to the monetary systemof the Republican
government of Rome, by a decree, prohibiting the
circulation of copper money bearing Cie insiynia of
i the Roman Eagle, and the inscription Dine Popoho.
I have periodically announced the disappearance of
the Republican mixed metal coinage and paper of
various categories, as they have been gradually with-
drawn by the Minister of Finance. The copper has
resisted the blows of the Minister rather longer, but
that also will vanish, save from the pockets of zealous
republicans, with the end of the present year. The
exchange on London has gone down again to 493;."

WOOL MARKET-THIS DAY.

There has been more inquiry this week for foreign Wool
than for some weeks past, last very little has been sold;
there is at present no life in the market. French burn
have been looking round, and are evidently prepared to
make considerable purchases of Cape and other low wools,
but they do not find sellers disposed to submit to their
prices, 111111 have written home tint fresh instructions.
there is every prospect of a good business being done with
France, v, ry shortly. The imports of Wool two boniton
this week h Ito been rather large, comprising Id bales from
Odessa, 103 from liatuburg, 207 front hlogadore, 3 from
Leghorn, 90 from Callao, 515 front Taganrog, 1,202 from
Sydney, 39 from the Cape, anti .355 trout Adelaide. In all,
2,767 bales.

For some reason unknown the troops in several
quarters were under arms last night, as if dangers
were apprehended.
The Conatitutionnel contains a long article upon
Lord Palmerston's retirement from the British minis-
try. The tone of this composition is remarkably de-
void of that acrimony with which the policy of the
Foreign Secretary, when in Mice, was censured by
the same organ. It is, in fact, rather complimentary
than otherwise; and the source of the indulgence may
perhaps be discovered in the following revelation:
It would he premature to inquire what effect the retire-
ment of Lord Paliner.ton may have upon the politics of
Europe. We will confine ourselves to saying that this
statasinan, with a penetration which has nes er been con-
tested, had understood from the first day the true
Icharacter, and all the drift of the events accomplished in
France. When a portion of England wasstillbssitating Lord
Palmerston had with sagacity and frankness recognised the
salatuary influence of the revolution of the 2nd of Deem-
' bet. He opened upon this point the eyes of his fellow-
countrymen, and his judgment, this time, has been ratified
by all Europe. Perhaps Lord John Russell before long
will repeat with regard to his retired colleague the old say-
ing :—'• One can neither live with bim, nor without him."
I lately mentioned the probability that the cen-
t sure upon books would be established. A beginning
1 has been made. The Prefect of the Nord, by virtue
: of a ministerial circular, dated Dec. IK, has ordered
every printer in his department to deposit for his
perusal two proofs of every book under ten sheets,
and the publication cannot be made without the Pre-
fect's
sanction.
Innumerable arrests continue to be made in all
parts of France of persons suspected of belonging to
secret societies.
In consequence of yesterday being Christmas-day,
the ..110witeur is not published this morning.
At the Bourse the Five per Cents. fell :lac. and
closed at 1001. 50e. ; the Three per Cents. fell llie.,
closing at 63f. lilie. At the opening there was a
slight tendency to rise, which was ;at once checked
by sellers pressing forwards. The settlement will
be very heavy, and the speculators arc but little in-
clined to do business till afterwards.

SADLER'S WELLS.

Tho Lady of Lyons having been performed in
dumb show, the audience :it this admirably-managed
theatre were introduced to Itarttquin and the Yellow Dwarf,
or the Enchanted Oran:le Trec stall Me King rf the Gold
Woes. 'rho opening scene was the Ancient Hall of
Revels, in which the Abbot of Ws:ale, the old Morris
dancers, King Arthur, Anna Boleyn (without her head),
S:r:Julin Falstaff, Sir Walter Raleigh, Tom Thumb, and
number of other mythic and historic personages, performed
a Sir Roger de Cuverley" under the supervision of Ohl
Style. Their revels, however, are interrupted by the ap-
pearance of New Style, who exhibits a specimen of her
quality by the sudden introduction of some helf-dozen little
Bloomers. Nevertheles,, Old Style repudiates all new-
fangled devices, and insists on a pantomime; whereupon
follows a fairy tale of such surpassing absurdity as to defy
analysis, but which appears to turn on the wooing of the
Princess Allfair by California, and the rivalry of the Yellow
Dwarf. Somehow the latter, in spite of giants and tuousters
of the most frightful mien whom he had retained in his ser-
vice, is worsted, and the transformations take place. The de-
mand of the Lord Chamberlain to have the tricks submitted
to his approval does not appear to have impaired the vir
consieet of the author, but, on the contrary, the jokes are
unusually numerous and good. A grand ve..:etarian
banquet is advertised, but subsequently the house is in-
formed that the vegetarians are " not inclined to meat."
The lato gastronomic feat of the boa constrictor is exhibited
and improved on—the serpent being made to disgorge not
a blanket only, but bedclothes stillicient for it moderate
family. Master Roches, who appeared as Sprite, and
Master Stilt, who was supernumerary Clown, performed a
great number of wonderful gymnastic feats. Mr. Fenton
was the Harlequin, bliss De Vero the Columbine, and Mr.
Naylor the Pantaloon ; all of whom acquitted themselves
witk credit.

WOOL NIARKET.-THIS DAY.

Since Tuesday, when the colonial Wool sales terminated

movement in this market. For British Wool the inquiry
is quiet, and there is no alteration to report in prices. Thin
week's imports are 5 bales from Hamburg, and 318 from
Sydney. The total imports of colonial Wool from the 25th
Feb., 1850, to this date, have amounted to 156.143 bales,
