Assuming, then, from these indications, and
from the obvious necessity of the case, that General
Simpson is not to retain the command of the
British force in the Crimea, two questions of ex-
treme importance present themselves for considera-
tion. The first is,—who is to succeed him ? and
the second is,—by what means are we to obtain
more efficient commanders in the superior ranks of
the army ? At the point at which matters have
now arrived, we have proved experimentally and
by cruel result the consequences of that fatal
system of employing old Generals, whieh were fore-
seen and denounced by every man of reflection at
the commencement of the war. A single year of
warfare has disposed of the whole of these veterans,
with the exception of Sir Colin Campbell, who
has b een laid up in lavender all the winter with
his Highlanders, and whose military talents, if we
may judge of them by his exploits when at the
head of a separate division in the Punjab, do not
entitle him to aspire to a great command. We have
seen the result of sending a young army into the
field almost entirely led by old chiefs, who owed
their rank to seniority and brevet promotions ; the
best of them have either fallen in battle or sunk
under disease, and those who remain are mere
obstructions to the real strength of the army.
This evil demands a vigorous remedy, and no mea-
sure will effect the necessary object which does,not
go to the root of the mischief, by placing the
entire command of the army in the hands of men
in the prime and vigour of life. In other words,
the Generals of Division and Brigade ought to he
selected from the best of the present Colonels in
the army, and 'a
similar step ought to be made in
all ranks. We have been fighting a powerful enemy
and co-operating with an energetic ally, while our
army is under the command of men at least one
whole generation too old.
If this remark be sound as applied to the divi-
sional officers of the army, it is so, a fortiori, as
applied to the Commander-in-Chief. In him you
absolutely require the full activity, strength,
energy, and decision of manhood, and, if nature
has not given him the genius of war, a century of
experience will not teach him how to conquer. It
is, therefore, unquestionably from the ranks of the
younger generals that the chief of the army in the
Crimea must be selected. He must be chosen as
Wole was taken by Lord Chatham, and, though.
some hazard and uncertainty may attend such a
choice, since no man can. be certain of possessing
the high qualities of supreme military command
until he has tried his own powers, such an appoint-
ment should rest mainly on the known character
of the man. The British army will not be com-
naanded as it ought to be until men of the age of
the Duke of Wellington and his generals in the
Peninsula are at the head of it. If we are told that
these officers are junior to many men now serving
above them, we reply that this is one of their re'-
commend4ify siPRe it tends/to raise the you:tiger
officers of the army to the positions they ought to
fill. It is not to the old bat to the young that the
country looks for victory, and it is time to break
asunder the fetters of a system which disgraces na
in the eyes of Europe, and which exposes the irmy
in the field to a most disadvantageous comparison,
not only with•the forces of our gallant 4.11i46,1 but
with those of the Russians themselves.

We do not recall these facts with any design of stirring
up angry passions in the British nation towards a Power
which assuredly deserves no consideration at our hands ;
but iu order to remind all—both private individuals and
public servants, every one, in fact, whose voice can in
any degree influence national action—first, that in Italy,
it is Sardinia and not Austria that merits our sympathy,
countenance, and aid ; that not only are her objects
beneficent and patriotic, and those of her rival ruinous
and fatal to that fair but miserable land ; not only is
Austria despotic, and Sardinia constitutional and free ;
but that in the conduct pursued towards us during the
perilous crisis we have passed, Austria has been pusil-
lanimous, selfish, and deceitful, and Sardinia gallant,
spirited, and loyal ; and, secondly, the Austrian occu-
pation of the Danubian provinces—an occupation which
she turned to our injury, which she makes a curse to
the wretched people who inhabit them, and which she
hopes to prolong for her own benefit—must at once be
made to cease. There is no longer the shadow of a de-
cent pretext for it : to the inhabitants it is even worse
than Russian invasion ; to Turkey and the allies it is as
bad ; and every day that it is suffered to continue is an
added cruelty and crime.

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER
ON THE SEBASTOPOL EXPEDITION.

At the meeting of the Radnorshire Agricultural So-
ciety, held at Knighton on Monday, the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, the Right Hon. Sir G. C. Lewis, Bart.,
who presided, in proposing the toast of the Allied Fleets
and Armies, said—" It is now just about a year since
the expedition upon which the eyes of all England and
of all Europe were riveted—the expedition to Sebastopol
—sailed. That expedition was perhaps framed with
rather sanguine views of the possibility of success, con-
sidering the numbers by which it was undertaken.
Nevertheless, it would have been possible for it to have
succeeded very shortly after the landing of the allied
armies. Such success was within the range, I will not
say of possibility, but of probability. The sanguine
hopes of those who contrived and ordered the expedition
were not, however, fulfilled. We saw the painful spec-
tacle of our gallant army during last winter exposed to
such trials, to such hardships, and to such privations as
scarcely any civilised army was ever before exposed to.
(Hear, hear.) We were told that those hardships and
privations were in a great measure owing to the neglect
or the want of skill in those who guided and those who
governed and provided for the wants of that expe-
diticn. I am not now going to enter into that much
debated, much discussed, and much controverted ques-
tion. I will only shortly express to you my opinion
—an opinion not founded on superficial grounds—that
a large portion of the sufferings of our army was
owing rather to the inherent difficulties of the expedition
itself, rather to the manner in which it was undertaken,
rather to the failure of immediate success, than to any
want of ability or skill in the persons who immediately-
superintended it. I don't mean to exculr be all the per-

those persons who have bestowed so much harsh criti-
cism on the conductors of that expedition did not make
sufficient allowance for the difficulties which were inhe-
rent in the enterprise itself. After a time, the treaty into
which this country and France had entered with Austria
rendered it incumbent upon us to commence negotiations
at Vienna, with a view to see whether, during the pen-
dency of the war, while the siege was still carried on be-
fore the walls of Sebastopol, some means could not be
found which should put an end to hostilities. The course
which was taken by this country in the negotiations of
Vienna was pursued with steadiness and consistency
throughout. No change took place in the terms which
were offered by this country and France to Russia.
Those terms were refused, and others were offered on
the part of Russia. The result of those conferences was
that her Majesty's Government, looking at the circum-
stances of the contending powers—to the position of the
armies at Sebastopol, and to the duty which they owed
to their country—thought no good would arise from their
continuance, and they were therefore broken off. Since
that time the war with Russia has been prosecuted with
all the vigour which this country, with its great re-
sources, could command—it has been prosecuted with
all thdse more extensive military resources which the
great population and the great military organisation of
France puts at the disposal of her Government—
and the result we all know. (Applause.) The great
fortress—the object of a year's contention between the
great Powers of Europe—has fallen ; and the fleet, the
arsenals, and the great military preparations of Russia,

Professor W. THOMSON, F.R.S., read a paper "On the
Electric Qualities of Magnetised Iron." He said—The
well-known ordinary phenomena of magnetism prove
that there is a wonderful difference between the mutual
physical relations of the particles of a mass of iron accord-
ing as it is magnetised or in an unmagnetic condition.
Joule's important discovery that a bar of iron, when
longitudinally magnetised, experiences an increase of
length, accompanied with such a diminution of its late-
ral dimensions as to leave its bulk unaltered, is the fast
of a series by which it may be expected we shall learn
that all the physical properties of iron become altered
when the metal is magnetised, and that in general those
qualities which have relation to definite direction in the
substance are differently altered at different inclinations
to the direction of magnetisation. In the present com-
munication the author described experiments he had
made, with assistance, in defraying the expenses from
the Royal Society out of the Government grant for Scien-
tific Investigations, to determine the effects of magneti-
sation on the thermo-electric qualities and on the elec-
tric conductivity of iron. The first result obtained
was that, longitudinally, magnetised iron wire in an
electric circuit differs thermo-electrically in the same
direction as antimony from unmagnetised iron. This
any one may verify with the greatest ease, by applying
a spirit-lamp to beat the middle of an iron wire or thin
rod of iron a couple of feet long, with a little magnetis-
ing coil of copper wire (excited by a dell or two of any
ordinary galvanic battery) adapted to slide freely on it,
and so bring a magnetising force to act on teso or three
inches in any part of the length of the iron ; and, when
the ends of the iron conductor are connected with the
electrodes of an astatic needle galvanometer of very
moderate sensibility, suddenly moving the coil from
one side to the other of the flame of the spirit-lamp.
The author next explained a series of experiments
(not so easily described without the apparatus, which
was exhibited to the section, or drawings of it), by which
(1), it was ascertained that magnetised iron with electric
currents crossing the lines of magnetisation at right
angles, differ from unmagnetised iron, thermo-electrically,
in the same direction as bismuth, that is in the opposite
way to that previously found for iron magnetised along
the line of current ; and (2) it was verified that an iron
conductor obliquely magnetised and placed in a circuit
of conducting matter, has a current excited through it
when its two polar sides are maintained at different tem-
peratures. The author also described and exhibited an
experimental arrangement made, but not yet sufficiently
tried, to test whether or not magnetised iron possesses a
certain thermo-electric rotatory property which his
theory of thermo-electricity in crystalline conductors had
led him to believe might possibly exist in every sub-
stance possessing, either intrinsically or inductively, such
a dipolar directional property as that of magnetism. Re-
garding the thermo-electric properties of magnetised
steel, the only experiments yet made being on longi-
tudinal magnetisation, showed most decidedly the same
kind of effect subsisting, with the permanent magnetisa-
tion, after the magnetising agency is withdrawn, as had
been found in iron while actually sustained in a state of
magnetisation by the electro-magnetic force. The effects
of magnetism on the conductivity of iron both for heat
and electricity in different directions with reference to
the direction of magnetisation had been tested by dif-
ferent experiments, with no confirmed indications in the
conduction of heat, and with only negative results re-
garding electrical conductivity. The author of the pre-
sent communication, feelins, convinced that only power-
ful enough tests are required' to demonstrate real effects
of magnetisation on all physical properties of iron, tried
to ascertain the particular nature of the conjectured
effect in the case of electric conductivity ; and at last,
after many unsuccessful attempts, succeeded in esta-
blishing that an iron conductor, sustained in a mag-
netic condition by either a longitudinal or a transverse
magnetising force, and brittle steel wires retaining
longitudinal magnetism, resist the passage of elec-
tricity more, or, which is the same, possess less electric
conductivity than the same conductors when unmao-netic.
It remains to be seen whether either iron or steel has,
when magnetised, the electro-crystalline property of
possessing different electric conductivities in different di-
rections ; and whether either has the possible rotatory
property as regards thermal conduction, which the in-
trinsically dipolar type of magnetisation suggests.
It is important to observe that both the thermo-elec-
tric quality, and the effect on electric conductivity in-
duced in iron or steel, and sustained by the magnetising
force, is retained with the permanent magnetism in steel
after the magnetising force is removed ; as Joule found
to be the case with the alteration of dimensions which lie
discovered as an effect of magnetism ; while, on the other
hand, as the author showed in a previous communication
to the section, the thermo-electric quality he has disco-
vered as an effect of mechanical strain, becomes reversed
when the constraining force has been removed if any per-
manent strain has been produced.
THE COAL AND IRON TRADE OF SCOTLAND.
Dr. STRANG, of Glasgow, read a valuable paper on the
progress, extent, and value of the coal and iron trade of
the West of Scotland. He said—The rapid progress
which has of late years characterised some of the now
largest cities of Great Britain is mainly due to the mi-
neral wealth which surrounds them—to the existence in
fact, of those vast repositories of fuel or of metals, which
nature has laid up for the use of man in the bowels of
the earth. If one only casts his eye over a geological
map of this island, he will find in England a Birmingham,
a Newcastle, a Preston, and a Manchester, placed in the
midst of extensive coal fields ; and on looking at Scot-
land he will at once discover, amid the great thinness of
habitation and population, at least one fully peopled
district, in the centre of which stands the no less
important and manufacturing city of Glasgow, sur-
rounded on every side by the richest strata of coal, iron
and lime. To the mineral wealth which exists in
this portion of Scotland may be mainly attributed the
prominent position which its Western Metropolis has
lately taken in the commerce and manufactures of the
world, and which the following statistical facts, con-
nected with the progress, extent, and value of the coal
and iron trades of the West of Scotland, of which that
city is the central mart, may, perhaps, in some degree
better illustrate. Although coals have, from a pretty
remote period, been wrought around Glasgow, chiefly
for domestic uses, yet it has only been since the intro-
duction of the steam engine, and still fnore since the dis-
covery of the economical mode of smelting iron by the
hot blast, that the vast and closely-packed mineral wealth
of its neighbouring districts have been at all fully deve-
loped and turned to great profit. Even so late as in the
year 1831, the quantity of coals brought to Glasgow was
only about 560,000 tons, and of that quantity 124,000
were exported, leaving 440,000 tons for domestic uses,
steam-boats, public works, and factories in the city and
suburbs; while the quantity consumed, as well as the
ironstone smelted in the comparatively few furnaces then
in blast, was small and unimportant. The contrast, in-
deed, of the coal and iron trades, only five and twenty
years ago, with those of the present moment, is most
striking. From the returns obtained through Mr. Wil-
liams, the inspector of mines for Scotland, it appears
that while in 1854 there were 367 collieries in Scotland,
237 of these belonged to the Welt country-141 being in
Lanarkshire, 78 in Ayrshire, 11 in Dumbarton, and seven
in Renfrew. It also appears that, during the same year,
there were 7,448,000 tons of coal raised in Scotland, and
of these about 6,448,000 were drawn from pits situated
in the four western counties a,liove alluded to. Taking
into account all kinds of coals raised, such as splint, soft,
and
gas, the average price may be fairly estimated at 7s.
6d. per ton, which shows the produce derived from the
coal mines from the West of Scotland in 1854 to have been
about 2,418,0001. sterling. Of the coals so produced,
2,152 s 800 tons were consumed in the manufacture of pig
iron ; 367,200 in the conversion of pig into malleable—
making in all 2,520,000 tons used in connection with the
manufacture of iron ; while 926,221 tons were shipped,
and 148,312 tons were sent beyon 1 the boundaries,
northward and southward, per railways, leaving for the
manufacturing c msumpt, steam-boats and domestic uses
of the Glasgow district, 2,853,427 tons. During the
same period the number of persons employed in the col-
lieries producing this quantity of fuel were as follows:

MURDER AT DUNDEE.—An atrocious and delibe-
rate murder was committed near Dundee on Saturday
night last. The victim is a labourer named. Owen Smith,
and the murderer a millworker, or labourer, named
Thomas Colston, a native of the County Cavan, Ireland.
It seems that some time ago the men had had a differ-
ence about a young woman for whom Colston had formed
an attachment, and which resulted in Colston being con-
victed and fined in the police court for an assault. He
encountered Smith and his wife on the road near Dundee
on Saturday night, and, saying, "Now I have got you,"
stabbed him in several places, and the unfortunate man
died instantly. Colston absconded, but he was traced
to Perth, where he was apprehended on Monday.

Tip to this time only one serious casualty had hap-
pened to the attacking force, a young American marine
named Adamson having been shot with a musket ball in
the groin ; but two other fatal accidents followed in
quick succession. The Rattler's first cutter, in charge
of Paymaster Brewndson, ran alongside of a large junk.
Several stink-pots thrown at them missed ; but at last
one, hove from the raised poop of the pirate by a woman
with a child slung to her back, fell into the boat, and
being followed by others, the crew were compelled to
jump overboard, where two were drowned, and a third
was wounded and drowned. One of these, a marine,
who had been wounded by a spear thrust, called to his
comrades to save him, and the other, being an excellent
swimmer, got bold of him for that purpose. The
Chinese them threw a mat over them, and the ma-
rine, still holding on by his wounded friend, dived
below, and came up clear of the mat ; but as soon
as he was observed, several stinkpots were pitched
at him, one of which struck him on the head, and though
not much hurt, he was stunned for a second or two, and
lost sight of the man he had displayed such a determina-
tion to save : the brave fellow's name is William Robin-
son. The other fatal accident was the blowing up of a
junk which for a time had offered a most determined
resistance to the gig, in which were Captain Fellowes
and Assistant-Surgeon Wilson, with five men, but which
was ultimately taken possession of by Lieut. Rolando
and hie launch. Either a train had been laid before the
crew left, or some determined scoundrel fired the junk,
for she blew up with a tremendous explosion, and both
officers and men were hurled into the water. Three of
the men were killed, and several others frightfully,
scorched, one of whom died the same night, while an-
other isnot expected to live, but the officers miraculously
escaped. Lieutenant Rolando was burnt and Captain
Fellowes injured by the falling spars. The survivors
were, however, all picked up by Mr. Craig, master's
mate of the Powhatan, who had luckily gone into the
boat the moment before the explosion took place. In
this junk was an immense quantity of treasure, said to
amount to 200,000 dole. ; and the desperation with which
her crew fought may be judged of from the fact, that
even after the Americans had gained the deck they were
encountered hand to hand. One man made himself par-
ticularly conspicuous, and, notwithstanding several
wounds, continued to throw stinkpots ; but ultimately
he ran below, and is believed to have fired the train
which blew up the vessel.
The time thus occupied in securing the larger
junks enabled 16 smaller ones to get so far ahead as to
render pursuit hopeless ; while, but for the unfortu-
nate absence of the pinnace and cutter, as above men-
tioned, the whole would probably have been captured.
The men in these boats tugged manfully at the oars,
and pulled a distance of 15 miles in three hours ; but,
notwithstanding their utmost endeavours, arrived too
late to take part in the fight, though they assisted in
destroying the captured junks, while the other boats re-
turned with their wounded men to the Eaglet. There
Dr. Pritchard, with Mr. Pine, the gunner, were pre-
pared to receive them, and everything was done by the
three surgeons (Pritchard, Schriver, and Wilson) that
humanity could devise or medical skill perform.
The junks were destroyed, five of which more than
ordinarily deserve notice. They were built of the most
substantial materials, evidently for war purposes, as they
differed in many respects from the common trading
junks. They carried very large guns-32, 24, and 12-
pounders. A 68-pounder was found in one of them ;
another had no less than 21 guns mounted, the weight of
one of which, carrying only an 18-pound shot, was esti-
mated at not less than 50 cwt. Two lorchas and seven
junks that had been detained by the pirates were re-
leased ; two of which, however, had to be burnt, to pre-
vent their falling again into the hands of the piratical
junks that escaped, time and an adverse wind and tide
not allowing them to be brought away. The officers em-
ployed estimate the guns taken at 200, large and small,
and the pirates at 1,000, 500 of whom were killed.

The following are the names of the officers engaged,

A THIEF FAST IN A CHIMNEY._ As police-constable
Wm. Brown was on duty in Regent-road, near the bar-
racks, about a quarter past one o'clock yesterday morn-
ing, he heard a man calling " Murder !" but for a long
time he was unable to determine whence the call pro-
ceeded. At length he concluded £hat it must come from

was without shoes or stockings, and he admitted that he
had descended the chimney from the roof of the canteen
with the intention of committing plunder whoa he get
