MARKET NEWS.—(This Day).

CORN EXCHANGE.

Zinc° Monday the receipts of English wheat, coastwise
and by land carriage, have been very moderate, and the
supply of that grain fresh up to-day from Essex and Kent
was small. Although the show of samples was limited all
kinds of wheat of home produce moved off slowly, but
without leading to any change in the quotations.
Over 10,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come to hand
this week. That article was excessively dull in sale, and
almost nominal in price.
Floating cargoes were much neglected.
Fine barley was held at Monday's currency, but other
kinds wore dull and rather drooping.
Wo had a slow sale for malt at lat,3 rates.

The oat trade was very dull at barely Monday's prices.
Beans, peas, and flour were almost nominal.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Although the supply of beasts was very moderat3 for
the time of year, the beef trade was in a most depressed
state, and prices were fully 4d per 81ba lower than on
Monday. The show of sheep was trifling, but more than
equal to the demand; indeed so littlo was doing that the
quotations were almost nominal. As regard calves there
was no sale for them, and prices were very uncertain.
Pigs sold heavily at late rates.
Mulch cows were very (lull, at froni 111. to 19/. each,

London, England, 1855-03-07

PAUPER CHILDREN.

Mr. MILES wished to ask the President of the Poor
Law Board whether any communication had taken
place between the President of the Privy Council and
himself, relative to the el ucation of children receiving
out-door relief ; and, if so, whether there was any objec-
tion to lay such correspondence before the house ?
Mr. BAINES said there was a correspondence on
this subject in the possession of the Poor Law Board,
and there would be no objection to produce it.
Mr. MILES next asked the President of the Poor
Law Board whether any communication had taken place
between himself and the Emigration Commissioners
relatiye to the Act paned by (f New South %lee

Legislatur,i, 16 Vic., c. 42, s. 7 and 8, whereby the Emi-
gration Con nmissioners were declared competent to engage
any boy or girl, of and above the age of 13, from any
parish or bi iard of guardians, the parents or guardians
of whom si tould be willing to contribute towards their
passage to L'te colony, the colony paying a sum not ex-
ceeding 8/. s terling towards the passage money ; such
children, npo n their arrival in the colony, to be appren-
ticed to prope r employers under certain conditions.
Mr. BAINT.ES said there had also been a correspond-
ence on this subject, and if the hon. member would
move for it there would be no objection to produce it.
London, England, 1855-03-07

ARTICLE VI.

The accounts between the two Governments, arising on
the one hand from the expense of superintending and
working the line, and on the other from the receipts for
despatches and messages, shall be made up at the end of
each year ; and after they have been examined and settled,
the balance which may be due by either party shall be
forthwith paid to the oiler.

BELGIUM.

Belgium is still without a Ministry. M. Del-
fosse, President of the Chamber of nepresentatilves,
has been sent for by the King.

FRANCE.
PARIS, TUESDAY EVENIVG.
The Emperor has countermanded the concert
which was to have been given at the Tuileries on
Thursday.
The Moniteur publishes a notification of the
blockade of the ports of the Black Sea and of the
Sea of Azoff by the combined fleets. The ports of
Eupatoria, Streletzka, Kamiesh, Kazatch, and
Balaklava are, however, it is stated, not comprised
in the blockade for the present ; but the commerce
of those ports remains subjected to all the condi-
tions and restrictions which have been, or which
may be, established by the Commanders of the
Allied forces.
The Minister of Marine and Colonies has ad-
dressed the foll Owing report to the Emperor : -
"Sire—Vice-Admiral Bruat, during the last few
years, has occupied different positions with great
distinction ; after having been governor of two colonies,
chief of a station, maritime prefect, Commander-in-Chief
of the squadron of the Ocean, he is now Commander-
in-Chief of the squadron of the Mediterranean, which so
nobly represents France in the Eastern seas. I have
the honour to propose to your Majesty to confer the
military me lal on this officer ; the distinction will be in
the eyes of Vice-Admiral Bruat a new ao.d precious tes-
timony of the esteem of the Emperor. I am, &c.,
"THEODORE DUCOS."
An imperial decree carries out the suggestion of
the report.
The following private telegraphic despatch has
just been received :
BERLIN, March 6.—. General de Wedell has set
off for Paris, carrying with him instructions which
will secure the conclusion of the treaty with
Prussia. The new Emperor, Alexander 11., pro-
mises in his manifesto to continue the policy of
his father. The Grand Duke Constantine has so-
lemnly sworn fidelity to his brother. The greatest
enthusiasm was manifested at the ceremony.
A Paris letter of the 14th, in the Independance
of Brussels, says :—" It is positively stated
that a telegraphic despatch has been received here,
giving a summary of the manifesto which the new
Czar is said to have addressed to the Russian I
people. In this manifesto, Alexander 11. declares I
that he will follow with filial respect the grand
policy of his father, into which he has been for:
some years past initiated. There will be therefory
no change of system, and hence it is conclud ed
that the question of peace cr war remains intrket,
and that it is still at Vienna that a solution raust
be come to. The Czar is said to have annormced
that ho will carry on with the greatest enery the
measure of the emancipation of the serfs -andctr-
taken by his father, and which has hitherto
been attended with such happy results. It!, he
adds, the measure is slowly carried out it is be-
cause the interests of the treasury must lee con-
sidered, and the rights of proprietors re: Tected.
Such is the sense of the telgraphic message said to
be received. It is said that the new Empress of
Russia is a woman quite out of the ordinar y line,
and capable of playing a great part in prow )11t cir-

TEE FUNERAL OF M. DUPONT.

The funeral of M. Dupont (do l'Eure) took place on
the 4th at Rouge-Perrier, the village which he inha-
bited. Among the numerous friends of the deceased
who were present, General Cavaignac, MM. Marie,
Sdnart, Carnet, Gamier-Pages, Goudchaux,Faulabelle,
all names of celebrity under the last Republic, were
particularly remarked. The towns of Neubourg,
Louviers, Bernay, Harcourt, Beaumont, Conches,
Brienne, Evreux, and many other places, had
sent deputations to the funeral, which, in other
respects, was extremely simple. The body of
the deceased ex-President of the Provisional Go-
vernment was conveyed in procession to Neubourg, his
birthplace, where an immense crowd had assembled
to witness the ceremony, the solemnity of which, we are
happy to say, was not interrupted by any po!itical demon
stration. The simplicity with which the funeral was
conducted was in accordance with the wishes of the de-
ceased, as expressed in the following letter addressed to
his children :

"My dear children,—l have always led a simple life,
and I wish to quit the world without pomp or ostentation.
I request you to have me interred in the cemetery of
Neubourg, where nay friend, M. Ozanne, the notary, has
obtained a perpetual concession of the ground which is
to receive my remains. I request the persons present
at my funeral to abstain from making any public speech
or extraordinary manifestation. I desire that no other
inscription be placed on my tomb than that which is to
contain my family and Chri-tian names, the date and
place of my birth, and the date and place of my death.
This inscription is to be cancetved in the following
terms : Here lies Jacques Charles Dupont (de l'Eure),
born at Neubourg, on the 27th of February, 1767, died

Early this morning the last batch of volunteers for the
Land Transport Corps left London for Bristol, via the
Great Western Railway. On the men arriving opposite
Buckingham Palace they were draw', up for the inspec-
tion of her Majesty and Prince Albert, and having given
I,everal hearty cheen, proceeded on their march. On
their arriving at Bristol they will undergo
the necessary drilling to fit them for the
important duties they will have to perform, and this
having been completed, they will leave England on the
10th of April, as at present arranged, for the Crimea.
Captain Mayne has removed his head-quarters from
the Wellington Arms, in the Waterloo•road, to Nor-
wich, for the purpose of beating up recruits in the
Eastern counties—the services of persons used to agricul-
tural pursuits and management of horses being required.
The rapidity with which the London list was filled while
the recruiting quarters were held at Mr. Pace's, may
be imagined when we inform our readers that in 17 days
the number, amounting to 450 men, was completed, the
Aervices of many eager volunteers having to be decline('.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—In your remarks on the Newspaper Stamp
Duties Bill, you observe that the reasons advanced
by the newspaper proprietors against the measure
go too far in stating " that the bill proposes to
remove all the securities against libel, or offences
against public order and morality," inasmuch as
the libel laws would still remain in force. As one
of the framers of those reasons, I beg to point out
that the penalties for libel are no securities against the
commission of the offence. The securities referred to are
the provisions by which the proprietors, printers, and
publishers of every newspaper are required to be regis-
tered, bonds with sureties given, and copies of every
publication delivered at the Stamp-office. Sweep away
all these requirements, as proposed by the bill, and what
protection remains for the public against the foulest at-
tacks upon institutions and individuals by convicted par-
ties putting forward men of straw, or by persons of no
reputation or responsibility ?
When we see that the most active promoters of this
movement are connected with publications, at present
happily obscure, but of which, to use the words of one
of your contemporaries, the Postmaster-General is to be
Colporteur•in-chief—disseminating principles alike op-
posed to religion and to the rights of property—l leave
you to judge whether we have not just grounds for ap-
prehension of a measure which, as they themselves an-
nounce, will be forthwith made use of " to scatter broad-
cast through the length and breadth of the land, at public
expense," their pestilential doctrines.—l am, Sir, your
I obedient servant,

THE DANUBE.

A letter from Vienna, in the Post Ampt Gazette,
says The letters from the Lower Danube state
that Turkish troops are constantly marching from
the interior of Bulgaria on Varna. Omer Paella
does not appear to be content with 40,000 men, in
order to successfully commence offensive operations.
He sends by every courier to demand fresh rein-
forcements from Ismail Paella, who commands the
army of the Danube, and more particularly insists
on the immediate embarkation of the corps of
cavalry of Rouraelia.

WAR OPERATIONS AT LIFE.RPOOL.

The screw-steamer Great Britain is to sail hence this
morning, for Queenstown. She will take a small de-

fill up her complement of 1,521 at Queenstown. They
will be drafts for various regiments in the Crimea.

and Col. Perceval. The paddle-steamer Cambria will go
out again to the Crimea with cavalry. The clipper-ship
Swordfish, the last of the hay ships chartered here by
Government, sailed for the Black Sea on Friday last. No
more hay ships are to be chartered here by Govern.
ment. Instead of that, Mr. Freelad, of Manchester,
the contractor for the hay, has undertaken to deliver
it at Malta or the Crimea according to orders, a
plan that will, no doubt, expedite in that depart-
ment of the commissariat. Since the 2d Reyal
Lancashire Militia Rifles left Liverpool, six
weeks ago, 105 men have volunteered to the line. The
enrolling to fill up the vacancies in this fine corps goes on
every Tuesday and Friday, at the Sessions-house, be-
tween 12 and 2. Some fine 32-pounders are expected
here to-day from Woolwich, to be put on board theindian.
They are the largest class of field artillery yet intro-
duced into the British service, and each gun will be
drawn by twelve horses. The Russians first taught us
that it was practicable to manoeuvre such monster guns
with facility at the terrible battle of Inkerman, where
the two 18-pounder siege gins brought up by Lieut.-
Colonel Dickson succeeded in silencing a heavy battery
of Russian 32-pounders.—Liverpool Standard of Tues-

COFFEE FOR THE CRIMEA.

Col. NORTH wished to ask the Secretary of the
Treasury upon what days the following ships laden with
roasted coffee for the Crimea sailed from England :
Sydney Hall, steam-transport, Adelaide, steam-transport,
and Lady Eglinton, steam-transport?
. _

Mr. WILSON said the first sailed on the 2d Decem-
ber ; the second, on the 29th December ; and the third,
on the 41h January.
Colonel NORTH asked the Under Secretary for War
if he was aware that green coffee was served out in the
hospital at Scutari on the 17th day of February.
Mr. F. PEEL was not aware of the circumstance ;
but up to the middle of January no coffee had been dis-
tributed. _ _

CRIMEAN MEDAL.

Mr. STANLEY asked the First Lord of the Treasury,
or Under Secretary for War, if it was intended that the
Crimean medal shall confer two years' additional service,
or any peculiar advantages similar to those conferred by
the Waterloo medal in 1815

Lord PALMERSTON, in answer to th• question,
said undoubtedly these actions were actions in which the
brave troops of the country displayed as much valour as
ever was evinced in former actions, but, nevertheless,
although medals had been prepared for these actions, it
was not intended to accompany those medals with the
privilege of counting these actions as ten years' service.
The battle of Waterloo was quite exceptional to these
actions or those in the Peninsular, because it decided,
as it were, the fate of Europe.

PAUPER CHILDREN:.

Mr. MILES wished tl ask the Praid,ent of the Poor
Law Board whether any communication had taken
place between the President of the Privy Council and
hiinself, relative to the education of children receiving
out-door relief ; and, if so, whether there was any objec-
tion to lay such correspondence before the house ?
Mr. BAINES said there was a correspondence on
this subject in the possession of the Poor Law Board,
and there would be no objection to produce it.
Mr. MILES next asked the Presiden t of the Poor
Law Board whether any communication b ad taken place
between himself and the Emigration (Commissioners
relative to the As,t passed by the New South Wales

THE FRIENDS OF POLAND.

A meeting of the friends of the reconstitution of Poland
as an independent State was held on Monday evening,
in the Manchester Town-hall, when there was' a very
crowded attendance. Mr. William Martin presided.
Mr. J. A. TURNER moved a resolution expressive of
sympathy with the Polish nation, and desiring the resto-
ration of that country to independence. (Loud cheers.)
Mr. A. WATKIN seconded the resolution, which was
carried unanimously .
The Rev. Dr. VAUGHAN moved the adoption of a peti-

tion to Parliament in favour of the reconstitetion of
In doing so he spoke at great length upon all
circumstances connected with the war against Russia,
and, in conclusion, said the restoration of Poland would
be the rearing up of a great rampart between Russia
and Turkey on one side, and of the Western European
nations on the other, and both Austria and Prussia,
might be made to see that it was their interest that it
should be so.
The petition was agreed to unanimously.
Mr. GOULD moved an expression of sympathy for
Poland, together with the copy of an address to Prince
Adam Czartoryski, of which the following is a copy :—,

" The three great principles of humanity, justice, and
freedom are identified with the problem of the re-esta-
blishment of the independence of Poland, and its solution
becomes daily of greater importance to the interests of
Europe. We conterophte with poignant grief the events
of the past which have a reference to the melancholy fate
of Poland. Her dismemberment reflects a discredit upon
the spirit of the times, but we chiefly deplore the indiffer-
ence with which Great Britain beheld the consummation
of that act of spoliation. However, we are inclined to
ascribe that apathy more to the want of proper knowledge
of foreign affairs than to the influence of unfriendly feel-
ing. We are now anxious to make, a compensation for
what we consider to have been a grave political error, by
the manifestation of our sympathy and a desire to support
the claims of Poland to her national independence. Under
the influence of such sentiments we address your highness,
hoping that our sympathy, now conveyed in words to you
and to your fellow-exiles, may be soon writte❑ by deeds,
which will realise your wi4hes and vindicate the rights of
nations.'

Mr. J. GREGORY seconded the motion, which was
adopted with ehe(r:,
M. ZABI then addressed the meeting in favour of the
reconstitution of Poland.
The meeting separated with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.

General Rudiger has been ordered from Warsaw

We learn from St. Petersburg, under date of
the 6th of March, that Prince Menschikoff had
sent the following despatch to his Government :
On the night between the 21st and 22d of
February, we erected a redoubt on the left flank
of the fortifications of Sebastopol. This was done
so promptly and unexpectedly that we received no
annoyance from the enemy (the Allies.)
On the night between the 24th and 25th the
enemy (the Allies) attacked the redoubt with con-
siderable forces.

Two regiments repulsed them. The enemy los
600 men.

The mining operations of the Allies have been
suspended.

Up to the 26th of February nothing new had
occurred at Eupatoria.

sance on Monday (the 19th), which failed, on ac-
count of the snow.

their morale was excellent.

The siege operations were advancing.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, March 3.—Yesterday evening, at half-
past 8 it was known here that the Emperor Nicholas
had ceased to be, and extraordinary was the
sensation which the news produced. No reliable in-
formation as to the cause of his death has yet reached
this city, but the Russians attached to the Embassy
relate that his Majesty died of Lungen,-Lahmung
(literally, suspension of the action of the lungs.)
"If the Czar died a natural death," says an
experienced statesman, " and his eldest son Alex-
ander succeeds him, peace will certainly soon be
concluded ; if, on the contrary, there has been a
palace revolution, and the Grand Duke Constan-
tine should succeed to the throne, a general war
is almost inevitable." Information, both valuable
and interesting, has this morning been acquired at
various excellent sources, and the essence of it will
now be communicated. The Vienna Congress
cannot hold its sittings for some time to come, as
Prince Gortschakoff and M. de Titoff will natu-
rally require fresh powers from their new Sove-
reign before they can act as his representatives.
As has been above observed, the Grand Duke
Alexander is most pacifically inclined, but kot
so his brother Constantine, who is here very
generally considered as the principal cause of the
calamities which have recently fallen on Europe.
By the death of the Czar, both the Emperor Francis
Joseph and the King of Prussia have acquired
greater freedom of action, and if his successor does
not voluntarily consent to make the concessions
considered necessary for the future welfare and
security of Europe, he will be forced to do so by
those very Powers which have hitherto exhibited
such an extreme disinclination to proceed offen-
sively against Russia.
A letter from Vienna of the Ist, in Spener's
Gazette of Berlin, says :—" The Prussian Ambas-
sador, Count Arnim, has not, up to this tinge, re-
ceived any communication which can lead him to
suppose that Prussia will send a plenipotentiary to
the approaching conferences. On the other hand,
Lord Westmoreland to-day received despatches from
Berlin, informing him that the negotiations rela-
tive to a separate treaty between Prussia and the
Western Powers, which were going on between
Mr. Hammond, the English Under-Secretary of
State, and M. de Manteuffol, had not up to the
evening of the 28th led to any result. Lord
Westmoreland made known this despatch to Count
Buol this morning."

THE MEDITERRANEAN.

MALTA, Feb. 28.—A Council of War had been
lately held, at which Omer Pacha, who had left
Eupatoria expressly, was also present, when the
modus operandi against the enemy was finally de-
termined upon. This is to attack the enemy in
the field (Liprandi's force), and in the event of suc-
cess, of which little doubt existed, to invest Sebas-
topol before attacking it. The Russian force is
thought to be nearly 150,000, and that of the Allies
not far short of that number, the English alone
being sadly reduced by disease. The weather was
fine, and the health of the troops rapidly improving.
The army of General Canrobert was in good health.
Steamers were constantly leaving the Crimea to
embark fresh troops, both English and French.
In matters of local news there is nothing to
report. We have had no arrivals of troops from
the westward ; but from the eastward wounded
and sick officers are continually passing through
en route to England. The latest arrivals are as
follows :-25th, by the Melita, screw steamer,
Lieut. Stokes, R.E. ; Lieut. Phillipps ; Lieut.-Col.
White, Dragoon Guards ; Lieut. Hall, Coldstream
Guards; Major Bethune, 9th Regt. ; Capt. Dixon,
30th Regt.; Capt. Micklethwaite, 44th Regt.; Ma-
jor Vesey and Captain Fane, 46th Regt.; Captain
Fitzroy, 68th Light Infantry ; Captains Gloster,
Haldy, Walton, Lieut. Grant, Ensiga Whitler ;
Surgeons Mitchel, Mulock, Stewart, and Darcy—
regiments not reported.
Captain Kilvington, 62d Regiment, who was
lately employed as an aide-de-camp to Lieutenant-
General Fergusson, commanding the troops, but
who accompanied his regiment to the East when it
left Malta, died on Sunday last on board the
Melita screw-steamer, as she was entering pert,
Isom the effects of dysentery he had contracted in
the East. He was buried on the following day
quite privately, in the cemetery at Florian.
Lieutenant Horsford, a young and promising
officer of the 23d Foot, who had but recently arrived
in Malta with a detachment of his regiment by the
transport steamer Crcesus, died on Saturday even-
ing of a low typhoid fever, with which he was at-
tacked on board. He was buried on the following
day in the cemetery of the Campo Santo, a place
consecrated for the reception of the bodies of the
Roman Catholic community, of which he was a
member.
