A GOOD SHOT.

We are completely in the dark as to the inten-
tions of the commanding Generals as regards offen-
sive operations. All that we can see is that an
attack on our lines is expected, and there our
knowledge stops. Meanwhile, our artillery' and
naval brigade are far from idle. A number of old
guns have been sunk in the earth, and make excel-
lent practice on the town, sending shells in all
directions and doing considerable damage. I be-
lieve it is intended to use up all our guns in this
way, and to dig up some that have been buried. The
solid 68-pounder that was lately taken down to a
battery on the left made an excellent shot a day or
two ago at the bridge across the Creek, over which
a number of soldiers were passing at the time.
The bullet cut the bridge in two, killing some of
the men, precipitating others into the water, and
sinking a barge. On the night of the 22d the sai-
lors got another 68-pounder into No. 9 battery,
Left Attack. The slings broke of i the way, and it
took some time and such dexterity and exertion
as none but sailors can display in a like degree
on such occasions to get the tackle right again
and complete the journey. Unluckily, the acci-
dent took place just under fire of the Redan,
which opened a heavy fire of shells on the party,
but Jack, nothing daunted, persisted in his task,
and fortunately accomplished it without casualty.

HEALTH OF THE ARMY.

The health of the army continues excellent.
The weather is dry, clear, and not excessively
warm. Sir W. Eyre, commanding the Third Divi-
sion, reports to the Quartermaster-General, under
date of the 14th inst., in very high terms concern-
ing the excellent order in which be found the hos-
pitals on a recent inspection. " I cannot conceive,"
he says, " that soldiers in the field can be more
orderly or comfortably accommodated." lie adds
that the sick are in possession of every comfort,
and gives great credit to the medical men of the
division. The weather is decidedly favourable to
field-hospitals, permitting doors to be left open and
canvas raised so as to ventilate thoroughly, and. I
am, often struck, when passing through the camp,
by the clean, cool, and comfortable appearance of

A NEGLECTED OFFICER.

I suppose if there is one officer More than another
that has been grossly passed over, and who ought
to have been made a brevet-major fur the Quarries,
that officer is this Captain Browne. He not only
on the ith June commanded the Engineers and
the whole of the working parties, but he himself
actually caused to be made, after the first assault,
both the lodgment and communication, and thereby
was chiefly the means of enabling us to hold the
Quarries from the repeated attacks of the enemy.
In addition to all this, his services were " eulo-
gised" in Lord Raglan's despatches. I am informed
that on his return from Therapia, on the 14th of
August, where lie had been for the recovery of his
health, for about 14 days, finding that he had not
been promoted even amongst the large number of
captains that were, both for the 7th and ISth of
June, he spoke to Sir Harry Jones on the subject,
who then said to him, " Yes, you decidedly ought
to have been promoted. It is not my fault. I
will speak or write to the Commander-in-Chief
about it." I regret to say that Captain Browue's
case happens to be only one of many in which the
' corps of engineers is sadly neglected by its own
authorities at home, who naturally enough are
not anxious to see young men, comparatively
speaking, promoted.

had he been alive Sir Robert would have entertained the
same views as the right hon. baronet present, upon the
question of peace and war. (Hear, and a laugh.) If I might
venture to give my bumble opinion upon the subject, I
should say there is but one way in which peace can be ob-
tained safely, honourably, and with the least possibility of
success. (Hear.) I say I believe there is but one way of
accomplishing this object, and that is by crippling the re-
sources and humblingiho pride of-Russia—(loud cheers)

by crippling her resources and humbling the pride of
her insolent rulers. (Loud cheers.) I believe that this
most desirable object cannot be brought about in any
other way Land fparful though it be, and great as has al.
ready been: the sacrifice of life and treasure, there is but
One honourable way of securing a lasting peace—that of
marching over the ruins of Sebastopol and Sweaborg, and,
if .needs be, of cronstadt and St. Petersburg itself—(great
cheering)—and probably if we find no better security when
we meet there, seizing upon the persons of the young Czar,
and his warlike brother Constantine, and chaining them
up in St. Helena or some other out•of-the-way place, until
they find sureties for their future good behaviour in the
laffairs of Europe. (Cheers.) This is the only way to ob-
taln that " material guarantee" requisite to prevent the
same or future barbarians of the north from carrying out
their insolent and aggressive policy of territorial aggran-
disement and universal dominion—(loud cheers)—a policy
which has prevailed in Russia, and been acted upon, more
or less, since the days of Czar Peter the Great, if not be.
fore. Gentlemen, lam as anxious as any man can be for
the restoration of peace ; but I say let it not be a hollow
truce—(loud cheering)—let us not have to fight the battle
o'er again—let us have peace—a secure and lasting and
honourable peace, and then I say agriculture, commerce,
and manufactures will flourish with increased vigour and
elasticity. (Prolonged cheering.)
Mr. RIGA responded on behalf of the agricultural interest.
Mr. P. S. DIXON said that as a commercial man he was
a little more peacefully inclined than Mr. James appeared
to be, and that gentleman would excuse him for saying
that the speech he had just heard rather reminded him of
the " war to the knife" demonstrations that used to be
made at Maryport about twelve months ago. (A laugh.)
After some other toasts, the party broke up.

RUSSIA.

A letter from Warsaw of the 28th ult. says :--
" According to Russian accounts, the corps of Gre-
nadiers forming the reserve has not yet entered
the Crimea, and will only go there to take part in
the first offensive operation of the Russians. It is
an error that the garrison of Sebastopol has been
doubled, and it is scarcely possible that it should
be, inasmuch as for several months the garrison
has been 60,000 strong. The corps of Panuitin
no longer bears his name ; it is at present
called the corps of Ofrosinoff, from the name
of its new chief. The report that two divisions
of infantry of the guard are proceeding from
Poland and Lithuania towards the Crimea, and
that they are to be replaced by militia, gains credit.
Public opinion in Russia demands that the troops
d'elite of the guard and the grenadiers, which have
not yet seen the enemy, shall be employed in the
war. The people imagine that the allies cannot
resist these corps united to the militia."

A NARROW ESCAPE.

Major-General Markham, C. 8., commanding the
2d Division, had a narrow escape on the 22d. He
had gone into a stable to look at a newly-purchased
horse belonging to Captain King, one of the aides-
de-camp, when one of the long range round shots
from the enemy penetrated the shed and killed the
horse. Captain King and one or two other per-
sons were present in the stable at the time that
this singular escape occurred. It is remarkable
that, notwithstanding the number of shot and
shell sent up towards the amp, only one man, an
artilleryman, hag been wounded: This single
casualty can hardly compensate the Russians for
their expenditure of labour and 'materiel. Had
Generale Markham been hit, they might have
thought their trouble sufficiently rewarded.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 30th ult. have ar-
rived. A band of armed men, supposed to be
smugglers, bad appeared in the Sierra del Paular,
province of Segovia, at a short distance from the
palace of San Ildefonso, and an armed force had
been sent in pursuit of it. The Minister of Public
Works is engaged in 'preparing a bill on canals and
irrigation.

A- letter from Madrid of the 30th ult., in the
Constitutionne/, says :—" The French in this city,
having inserted a few days ago a malevolent article
on England, on the occasion of the visit of the
Queen to Paris, Mr. Otway, English Charge
d'Affaires, complained to the Minister of Foreign
Affairs on the subject ; but the matter has been
dropped, in consequence of the journalist having
yesterday published explanations in which he dis-
avows any intention of offending the Queen or the
people of England."

CITY COMMISSI6N OF SEWERS.

Ye,terday the first court since the holidays was held
for the despatch of public business. There was a large
attendance of members. The chair was occupied by Alr.
Deputy Peacock.
ASSESSMENT OF PROPERTY WITHIN THE CITY.
Alderman WIRE said that since the last sitting of the
commis-ion various meetings had taken place of the dif-
ferent wards of the City upon the subject of the consoli-
dated rate, and as he understood that they were likely
to come to some arrangement amongst themselves which
would be agreeable to the commission, he wished to
postp,,ne the following motion, which stood upon the
_
paper of business : _ _

That the resolution and order of this court of the
26th June last, That in the next consolidated rate to
be made in July, the War Is of Langhourn, Lime-street,
Candlewick, Walbrook, Bridge, Dowgate, Vintry, and
Queenhithe, be assessed and rated on the valuations
made by the said surveyors appointed for that purpose ;'
and which valuations have been delivered by the clerk,
be revoked ; and that the whole of the wards within this
city be assessed to the consolidated rate upon the old
assessment, until the valuations of the surveyors for the
whole City shall be completed."
Deputy LOTT wished to know whether there had not
been a meeting of some of the members of the Cornmis-
Fion the day of adjournment, and, if so, whether
there was anything to report to the court consequent
thereon ? •

The CHAIRMAN—No ; tbere has been a friendly meet-
ing, and an eLleasour to avi,id the necessity of employ-
ing lawyers. I think the result of that meeting will be
that we shall approach each other in a friendly way, and
get our rate books put in proper order. We were not
a legally constituted court, If the rate books are re-
ferred to the General Purposes Committee, I think the
wh,,le matter may be amicably arranged.
The suggestioz. of the Chairman was adopted, and the
motion was postponed. -

Court, Westminster Hall, before John Frazer Macqueen,
Esq., on Friday, Sept. 21, at eleven o'clock in the fore-
noon.

The Reformers continue their attention to the register
of this city. Mr. Huggett, their agent, has made 350
objections. The Conservatives have not made any ob-
jections. There are only 34 claims for the whole city,
most of which are by Reformers. The number of names ,
on the lists published by the overseers this year is
14,070, being 133 less than last year, and 779 less than
the previous year, 1853. This reduction is cl"`fl9..
caused by the operation of a decision by the
Common Pleas, rendering the payment of one quarters
house tax, which is not demanded till after Lady-day,
payable before the 20th of July. Court c:r

AUSTRIA.

We read in a letter from Vienna of the 30th ult.,
,n the Constitutionnel :
" Baron de Bruck undertook in the month of March

last the Ministry of Finance, vacant by the resignation
of Baron de Baumgartner. With a well-arranged budget
no one would have administered better, or with more
probity and strictness, the public revenue than the latter.
But in presence of a constantly-increasing deficit, and
when recourse to bold combinations was necessary,
Baron de Baumgartner could only employ palliatives,
and by means of them he had nearly rendered the evil
incurable. With a courage which cannot be sufficiently
appreciated, Baron de Bruck, after having carefully
examined the situation of the treasury, avowed frankly
to the Emperor that Austria, by persisting in the system
which she had followed, would inevitably become bank-
rupt. He was of opinion that, in order to promptly
re-establish order in the finances, it was necessary to
reduce by more than one half the effective force of the
army. However, on taking into account political cir-
cumstances which prevented the employment of such a
radical measure, Baron de Bruck undertook, by the
aid of other measures and financial reforms, to provide
for the current and future service, provided the War
budget was immediately reduced by about 60,000,000
florins (150,000,000 fr.) Such is the sole and veritable
cause of the partial disarming which the Emperor of
Austria, before undertaking his journey to inspect the
army on the Russian frontiers, was obliged to sanction."
A letter from Vienßa, of the 30th ult,, says :
" For some days past there has been great activity in
diplomatic relations. M. de Bourqueney and Prince
Gortschakoff have passed the whole of the afternoon at
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The reply of the
Imperial Cabinet to the last Russian circular was sent off
to-day to St. Petersburg. The Ambassador of Austria
at Berlin, Prince Esterhazy, is to return to his post to-
morrow. The Russian privy councillor, Count Tengo-
barski, who has been here for some days, is to leave to-
morrow for St. Petersburg. In a few days the new
councillor of the Russian legation, M. de Balabine, who
is to replace M. Fenton, is expected here. It is again
said that M. de Bourqueney will take three weeks holi-
day in the course of September. New plans of finance
continue to be discussed by the government ; the idea
of completely re-organising the bank, and of getting rid
of the obligations to it, gains favour. M. de Bruck
proposes, besides, to sell the railways and mines of all
the provinces, and to increase the taxes."
London, England, 1855-09-05

A GOOD SHOT.

We are completely in the dark as to the inten-
tions of the commanding Generals as regards offen-
sive operations. All that we can • see is that n
attack on our • lines •is expected,, and there our
knowledge stops. Meanwhile, our: artillery and.
naval brigade are far from idle. A number of old
guns have been sunk in the earth, and make excel-
lent practice on the town sending shells is all
directions and doingi, considerable damage. I be-
lieve it is intended to .use up all our guns in this
way, and to dig tip some that have been buried: Tile
solid 68;pounder that was lately taken down.to
battery on the left made an excellent shot a day or
two ago at the bridge across the Creek, Over which
a number of soldiers were 'passing at the time.
The bullet cut the bridge in two, killing some of
the men, precipitating others into the water, ;and
sinking a barge. On
.the night of the 22d the sai-
lors got another 68-ponnder into No. 6` battery,
Left Attack. The slings broke on the way, and it
took some time and such dexterity and exertion
as none but sailors can display in 'a like degree
on such occasions to get the tackle right again
and complete the journey. ' Unluckily, the acci-
dent took place just under fire Of, the Redari,
which opened a heavy fire of shells on the party,
but Jack, nothing daunted, persisted in his "task,
and fortunately accomplished. it Without casualty.

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople, of the 25th ult.,
says :—" The Turks are to day celebrating the fets
of Courban-Bairam. The Sultan, surrounded by
his high dignitaries, went this morning in great
state to the mosque of the Sultan Achmet, and
with his own hand offered a sacrifice of three
rams. He then returned with the same cortege
to the Palace at Seraglio Point, where the cere.
mony of kissing the fringe on the throne took
place. In former days it was the foot of the
throne that was kissed, but the present Sultan has
changed it to kissing the fringe, which is held up
by some attendants for the convenience of those
who are admitted to pay this compliment to their
sovereign."
A letter from Jerusalem, of the 18th ult., in the
Moniteur, says :

" The civic discords which for several years have
constantly desolated Palestine lately assumed such a
serious character as to call for the employment of force.
Certain powerful Cheiks of the cantons of Napolose and
Hebron broke out in open revolt and committed deplor-
able excesses. Fortunately, however, there was to
ensemble in their movements. The mountain of Napo-
lose was promptly pacified, and Kiamil Pacha was able
to concentrate all his efforts against the Cheik Abdur-
rahman-Amer, who kept Hebron, as it were, besieged.
The governor took the field with 300 regulars, some
hundreds of horsemen,' 1,00 Arab contingents, and
four pieces of artillery. The insurgent Chalks retired
before him, and fortified themselves in Idhna, one of
their principal villages, where they threw up entrench.
ments. After a week's useless negotiations during
which time numerous reinforcements were preparing
to come and take part in the revolt, Kiamil Pacha
was obliged to use his artillery against the -entrench-
ments, and, in spite of an obstinate resistance, to carry
the village by assault. Seventy of the rebels were taken
prisoners, 22 were killed, and a great number wounded.
The village itself was destroyed. The effect produced
by this vigorous act has been very great on the half
savage inhabitants of the country. The great majority
of the insurgent Cheiks came immediately and made their
submission, and paid the arrear of the tribute which they
had refused to pay for the last three years. On leaving
Hebron, Kiamil Pasha was to pass along the plains be-
tween Ghazza and Kamleh, where considerable outrages
have been committed and some blood shed. He will, it
is said, reach Jerusalem in about a fortnight.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE MARTIN AND SCOTT.

This was a meetieg for certificate. The bankrupts
were described as merchants and shipbrokers, carrying
on business at 21, Great St. Helen's.
The balance-sheet commenced November, 1849, and
ended June, 1855, and showed—Debtor to creditors un-
secured, 11,0561. 16s. 7d. ; profits on trade, 3,003/. 13s.
3d. ; capital (of Mr. Scott), 1,0001. Credit by debtors
—good, 2,0531. 9s. 3d. ; doubtful, 4501. 12s. ; property
surrendered to assignee, 1,7341. 3s. 4d. ; by consign-
went, 9491. 12s. 6d. ; expenses in trade, 9121. 188. Id. ;
losses, 9,5801. Bs. 41. ; partners' drawings—Martin,
2,7391. 10s. ; Scott, 1,6451. 3s. 6d.
Mr. Lawrence appeared for the assignees, who offered
no objection to the bankrupts, whose conduct had been
exemplary, having a first•c!ass certificate.
The solicitor who appeared for Messrs. Gilpin and Co.,
of Wedge Mills, near Walsall, creditors for about 431.,
opposed the bankrupts' having their certificate, on
the ground that they had omitted to pay freight on
goods for which the money was remitted to them.
Mr. Bayley, for the bankrupts, having been heard on
this point, which was a matter of account,
His Honour said it was satisfactory to him to be
enabled to grant the bankrupts an immediate first-class
certificate.
Granted accordingly.

cleansing for everylittle Peddlington or petty village must
be settled by a "committee up stairs." The whole fore-
noons of all the members are occupied with railways,
steam-boats, canals, gas, shipping companies, water com-
panies, private, provincial and parochial concerns of every
sort. Do the members of the Howe of Commons manage
that department as well as a responsible Executive Go-
vernment would? Look at the results. While, on the Con-
tinent of Europe, without any Parliament at all the whole
of the joint-stock-or large mercantile undertakings are
cheaply started, honestly conducted, and remunerative,
those of England find their subscribed capital eaten up
with Parliamentary expenses for acts under which the
working is so bad that none of them pay a dividend an-
swering to the fair expectations of profit, while most of
them are a disaster, cheat, and swindle from beginning
to end. These concerns, in fact, become a great source
of Parliamentary corruption, and fill the Senate with
sordid jobbers who bribe, or needy adventurers who are
bribed, not to mention those dirty fellows in both houses
who screw large prices out of companies for their land,
houses, or other property, as a fee for not putting the
promoters to the expense of an opposition. Nothing
can be more obvious than that such work is tot the
office of a deliberative assembly, but solely of an
executive department, to be armed with the necessary
functions. The whole of the private business of Parlia-
ment should at once be handed over to the Home De-
partment, the Board of Trade, and other institutions
cognate to the particular work to be done. Let these
departments be responsible to Parliament as "com-
mittees up stairs " are now, and thus a very large pro-
portion of the whole task now set to Parliament would
be removed from its cognisance entirely. One effect of
such a Change would be that that large class of jobbers
who spend their money lavishly in bribing constituen-
cies to return them, in the view of getting it back with a
handsome profit from Parliament in th shape of jobs,
would trouble the national counsels no more • and that if
we hid fewer contractors, Railway and 'joint Stock
Company directors, Water and Gas Company chairmen,
and "rising men at the bar" to assi-t us with " their
wisdoms," we would also offer fewer attractions for cor-
ruption and self-seeking, and a better object of laudable
ambition or disinterested patriotism to the honest, re-
flective, and high-minded citizen. The utter disrepute in
which the very institution itself is held at present by the
nation,, the distrust with which it is, regarded by the
pdople,4-ana e, too well-fbunded reasons presented 'by
its reeentmondnct for-the-worst exeeratiome of its greatest
enemies, ought to.satisfy all who are desirens of- main-
taining the fabric of the State in the form of its existing
architecture, that the Parliamentary form of govern-
ment can only sustain itself in being by a thorough re-
construction _.of its internal machinery.

EGYPT.

A letter from Alexandria of the 25th ult., in
the Moniteur, says:—
" Quiet has not been restored in Upper Egypt. The
insurgents having retired into the desert at the approach
of the Viceroy, his highness again took the road to
Alexandria, and since his return here things have be-
come much worse. Some of the tribes have, it is true,
laid down their arms, and the troops, left on the princi-
pal points in the valley of the Nile, are sufficient to pre-
vent any aggression ; but from the last accounts re-
ceived, the Bedouins are far from having given up the
struggle. The main body of the insurgents are in the
Oasis of Dahkel, about seven days' march to the west of
Lyout. This Oasis, which is one of the most fertile on
the left hank, may be readily defended. The Bedouins
are said to be about 7,000 strong; but supposing this
number to be exaggerated, and that they only
muster the half of that number, it is very doubtful
whether, in presence of that force, the Commandant of
the Egyptian troops would assume the offensive at the
risk of losing his army in the Desert by hunger and
thirst. According to recent letters from Massoah and
Khartoum, all the missionaries in that part of Abys-
sinia have received orders to quit the country imme-
diately. Father Just d'Urbin was pursued by the agents
of Abonna-Salatne, and it was only by the greatest chance
and after undergoing the severest privations that he was
able to reach the frontiers of Sennaan, and at length
arrived at Cairo in safety. It appears that the Mussul-
mans are not better treated than the Roman Catholics.
Persecution is general against all who refuse to adopt
the Copt faith. Mgr. Mazloum, the Patriarch of the
United Greeks, died here on the 22d, after a short illness,
at the age of 76. His reputation is European from his
eloquence and his works, and he exercised great influ-
ence both in Syria and Egypt."
