INTELLIGENCE FROM ABROAD.

THE ABYESINLiN EXPEDITION.

Sir Stafford Northoote has received the follow-
ing telegram from Sir Robert Napier at Attegerat
" Information recei►ed from Magdala up to 17th
January, and from Theodore's camp up to 9th
January. All prisoners safe and wall up to those
dates. The imprisoned European. who were with
the King had bean made over to a detachment of
his army to be escorted to Magdala. The King's
program towards Magdala was wry slow, owing to
his encumbranese, but by abandoning the latter he
could still at any time reach Magdala. It was re-
, potted in Magdala that Menelek, Ringo/ Shoe, had
again left Shoe forMagdaLt, for the purpose of act-
ing against Theodore. The information received
affords no clue to Theodore's views or purpose. at
the present crisis."
The above telegram was not dated.

PRUSSIA.
BERLIN, Kum 4, Emma
The semi-official Provincial Correspondatee of this
evening sap :—" The proceedings taken by the
government against the ex-King of Hanover un-
doubtedly meet with the approval of the Proisian
people. The European powers will also regard
them as being inevitable, being demanded alike
by justice and by policy. The government is aware
that the measures they have adopted will not
entirely prevent the continuation of these sense-
less enterprises, which are not in reality dangerous
to Prussia. Nevertheless, the measures taken will
put a stop to the abuse of Prussia's generosity in
the furtherance of criminal plans hostile to the
State. They will also cause the adherents of the
ex-King to perceive that the Powers moat imme-
diately concerned, France and Austria, have this
time equally shown what value they attach to the
continuance of good relations with Primula."
The British minister, LordLoftus, delivered his
credentials to the King to-day as representative
to the North German Confederation.

It is facially announced that the British
government has notified its accession to the Inter-
national Telegraph Treaty of 1866, so far u re-
gards the telegraph lines in the East Indies. The
cost of telegrams to India would therefore be
reduced by U. for 20 words.

' PRINCE NAPOLEON'S VISIT TO GERMANY.

BERLIN, 144442 4. EVENING.
Prins Napoleon arrived here at 9.40 p.m.
to-day.

FRANCE.

PARE, MAIM 4.
In to-day's sitting of the Legialative Body,
the bill fixing the contingent at 100,000 men
came on for discussion. M. Ronher, in reply
to M. Picard, mid that the relations of Prance
with foreign powers were excellent, and that the
clouds which had begun to appear, and which had
canned-various alarming reports, were now entirely

Marshal Niel made a speech, in which he said—
" The opposition will soon have reason to regret
'having attacked the new military organisation of
France ; that organisation will be a pledge of
safety for the country. It will fall less
heavily upon the population than the former one,
and will be more economical. Next spring the
whole French army will be armed with the new
rifle, the most perfect known. In conaequenoe of
its adoption in Franoe all the other Powers are
obliged to reform their armament.. France has a
two years' start of them, which is a great thing,
considering the events which have been accom-
plished in Europe. Protected by this strong orga-
, libation the country may devote itself in security
to the labours of peace."
The Moniteur, in its bulletin of this evening,
alluding to the retirement of Lord Derby, saysthat
few statesmen have so much deserved the popu-
larity and the respect of his fellow-countrymen,
both on account of the greatness of his character
and the celebrity of his talents. The same paper
adds that the selection of Mr. Disraeli has been
favourably received, and that the desire is felt to
do justice to a minister who has surmounted so
many difficulties to arrive at the position he now
occupies.

Tie Rinidard of this evening says that Prince
and Russia, in view of the deplorable condition of
the Cretin refugees in Greece, have decided to
transport no more refugees to the continent.
The Liberti, Opinion Nationale, Reese dee Deux
Yonder, &bele, Debate, and Awitir National have
formally authorised the Pays to publish M. De la
Varenne's papers, and have engaged not to take
legal proceedings against that journal for defama-
tion on account of rush publication.

a great deal ; but he sleuth seethe himself to ewe or two
roints. It was emaisealy said that the great Manny
with regard to adoestisa was what wee called the religion
difficulty. He did net believe that that dillicaU7 was so
great as it was generally sUppesed to be. He be-
lieved that when with ldly Christian feeling one
towards another they set themselves to work to
solve that difficulty, as bad been done in this
cue, that •• solution wee prate/Lily found.
Whether they were able or not to lay down the theory by
which that gelation was arrived at was another natter.
The quake wee bow—in a community which emulated of
persons el urine religions opinions, and in which also,
thank God, there was a very thong feeling indeed oa the
Phrt of paints that they desired their children to receive
• religiose ethation—were they to do their duty in reli-
giose matins, and at the same time to have fall coaddent-
lice for those who differed from them in religious *anion.
Now the legislature had, quit* as much as the present
body, been eessaed with the nosideration of the diffi-
culty ; and la what waa tolled the thawed Scheele Bill,
• few yeas ago, great are was taken to surmount this
difficulty if possible. With regard to schools which were
of easiest fouadatien, and which belonged to the church
of England, it was required that the trustees should mako
arrangements whereby the children of panne not amebas
of the church of England should have the full opportunity
of receiving education for their eon without any
violation of their coascienoes. The legislature is that ease
followed the Court of Chancery, which be believed in all
schools that were subjected to the court had previously
laid down a similar regale-tits. There was this peculiarity
with regard to the Endowed Schools Bill, that it bad to
deal with schools which wore in their origin church of
England schools, and yet very wisely, as he thought, con-
sidering that these were national schools, the legislature
and the highest court. of the realm took ears that in these
schools there should be an opportunity for persons not
belonging to the church of England to have a geed educe.
tics for their children without any violation dose to their
ecessioncia Some of his brother thiamin seaddered
that that watt an unworthy concession to the madam, as
they called them, of the nineteenth century. For his own
part be took a different view of the matter,and he believed
that the great body of the elerp agreed with bln in the
that God Lad anal the parents with the can
their children, that the parent wee responsible for the
eeligious instruction of the child, and that se one had
soy right to step In end thwart the wish of the
parents in • matter of this kind. The great responsibility
rested with the parent, and the schoolmaster was in no
manner acting contrary to his conscience if he believed
tbat there should be regulations whereby theamesisatious
;Times of

regard to endowed nuddle schools, so in all violability if
any plan of education was adopted for the poorer classes, it
must more or leas be based on these two principles—first
of all the absolute freedom of the muter to leach that
which he conscientiously believed; and areeselly, the
absolute freedom of the parent to remove his end from
such portion of the instruction as be thougli fit. He
believed theta wise schoolmaster would prevent tbe mow
city of tide withdrawal, but that there should be a right
to the willidairal was a matter which hould sot
be !thakenried. Now, with regard to this
partieniar school, the founders were of Donne
net emestly in the position of the trustees of the endowed
abode whisk wen the subject egislation, because it
wee known that many of the putlanen who sane for-
ward is the first instance to establish this school were
not members el the church of Kagland, and therefore it
wee a more dank question in sub a school as this than
it was in schools founded is church of England
schools. The founders of this school adopted the plan
which appeared to them the beet for securing the object
they had in view that object being es far as possible to
give • religious education to the children ; but at the same
time it was obvious, from the very csuutitation of the
body, that every care must be taken to prevent any in-
justice to the conscience of parents. He was hardly
the person, being a member of the council, to
say that the amuse they adopted was the
best coarse, but at all everts it was one
which secured the object they had in view.
The Lord Mayor was made a member of the sound in
order that be might see that justice wee done to all the
various interests ocasested with this great Guy of London
in the particular matter to which be had alluded, and in
all other matters likely to come before the octiusciL They
thought there amid be no fitter person to guard those in-
terest& At the same time he presumed that by the selec-
tion of the person bolding the office be (the Bishop of
Leedom) held it was distinctly intimated by the eon-
mitts that it was desiredrygot founders of these schools
that they should have • character • so that the
appointmentdthe Lord yew and the Bishop of Lon-
don seemed to be the recognition of the two principles
which the legislature had laid dews. Neither
his lordship nor himself was there to naliatain
that this school was neassarily the beet of the
kind, or that the system was the best camesivable. It
was open to any one there present to prefer any other sys-
tem. It was very difficult to lay down any praise nth in
the lira Wanes, and he believed he might say that the
difficulties had, in a great measure, settled themselves.

.ANALOAMATIIII SOCIETY OP CARPENTERS
AND JOINERS.

Last night a public meeting, convened by the
I Amalgamated Soy of Carpenters and Joiners, was held
in the Arundel Great Hall, 37, Arundel-street, Strand, for
the purpose of presenting to two of its members who had
bean permanently disabled the accident benefit of 1001.
Hen-society men were especially invited to attend. Mr. T.
Hyman. M.P., presided.
The Hon. CIIAIIMIN, in opening the proceedings, or
marked that if this wares mere trade society meeting in
the ordinary sense of the word, it might not, perhaps, be
proper that ho should be present, inasmuch as ha was a
member of the royal commiaioa whit& had been sp
painted to inquire into the subject of trades unions. He
was, however, not present that night to consider any of
the question; which affected trades unions. He was
there for • very different purpose, namely, to pre-
sent to two of the members of their society,
who had been permanently disabled by accident,
' the sum of 1001. each, which they had earned as members
of the society. (Hear, hear.) There could be nn doubt,
notwithstauding what bad been alleged

Englishmen must agree brat the action of the trade aocies.
ties we, an eminently beneficial one—(choers)—and ciao
deserving the warm support of all those who wished well to
their country. They all knew that in all haadiarafts these
mud be • certain number of casualties which no prudence
on the glen of the men could 'vide In their
trade there were amildwats sri s dews
of scaffolds ant the falling of machinery, which, but for
such provident habits as were cultivated by this and
similar societies, end which be was happy to say
the working men of this country were more and
more every year falling into, would render men
in the prune and rigour of life absolutely destitute.
(Hear, bear.) His special connection with the presents-
tion at that night arose simply from the fact that one of
the members to whom the accident benefit of 1001. was to
be presented belonged to the borough which he had the
honour to represent in parliament. (Cheers.) His name
w Burford, wbo he regretted to say hal bees

pleasure to hand overtothe secretary of the Lambeth branch
of their society for this man the rum of 10(R., whi, b might
enable him to start • small business, and through that
means preserve himself from becoming a burden to his
'country. (Hear, hear.) As regarded medical treatment,
too, no expense had been spared during his long illness to
place him on an equality with persons in emu& richer station,
of life. (Hear.) The same of the other member to whom
the sum of 1001. would be presented that was Frauds
Johan, who being smitten with • aMiction had
bean rendered unable to work. t seemed to him (Mr.
Hughes) that the friendly objects of that and similar
societies were worthy of the most cordial adm;ration sad
support from all portions of English society. (Hear, bear.)
The chairman then dwelt upon the importance of the culti-
vation of provident habits amongst the working classes,
and concluded amid warm applause.
The Hos. CHATIMILIt then presented to Mr. Davy, the
secretary of the Lambeth branch of the society, for Geo.
Burford, the sum of 1001., and to Mr. Rattenborough, fee
Francis Johan*, a like sum. Thanks were returned by
those gentlemen for the recipients, after which Mr. APPLN-
oARTH &Miaowed the meeting on the mlit. of trades
unions, and a cordial vote of thanks to the chair:ma
for presiding brought the proceedings to a elem.
