(From the 7'iraes of this day.)
"It is an ill wind," says the
proverb, " that blows
nobody any good ;" and Prussia certainly is making a
pretty thing of the war. What contingent advantages
she promises to herself when Russia shall become the
"sick man " of European politics, when the Western
Powers shall be too exhausted to interfere, and Austria
only too ready to divide the spoil, we do not happen to
know ; but the pecuniary harvest is already begun.
What with the conveyance of all kinds of Russian
produce, besides sulphur and saltpetre, iron, lead, and
everything convenient for the destruction of Englishmen
and Frenchmen, all Prussia is as busy as a hive of bees,
and the railways, canals, and ports are choked with
traffic, Memel has more than recovered from the late
conflagration. A new source of profit is now discovered
to give the renfiers a turn. A. subscription has been
opened at Berlin for the new Russian loan, and the
citizens, who but lately had work enough of their own,
are now piously and philosophically engaged in supply-
ing the sinews of war to their formidable neighbour.
From all accounts it would seem that, while most other
countries are suffering under a pecuniary pressure, in
Prussia they are rather flush of money just now. Not
only is the carrying trade very prosperous, but the price
of bread and meat is most remunerative to the fortunate
producers. Hence a slight difficulty of investment, and
the Czar, who has found Prussia so glad to supply his
arsenals, and relieve him from the pressure of our block-
ade, is now trespassing on her kindness for one 'store
favour in the shape of subscriptions to a loan. At Am-
sterdam, it appears, a subscription is also opened, but
there it must be done under the rose. A t Berlin there
is no such reserve. No doubt the best thing a man can
to there to prove his loyalty to his own sovereign is to
buy into the Russian loan. Nay, on the principles of
German indifference to all questions of right, and to
liberty itself, he is a benefactor to his country. By sup•
plying the Czar with funds to carry on the war, he is
helping also the traffic in Russian produce, from which
Prussia is now so large a gainer. No doubt the money
must return into Prussia as fast as it goes out, while the
bankruptcy of Russia would doubtless tell severely on
many a Prussian ledger. As to the strict legality of the
transaction, we presume that must be left to the lawyers ;
and if it be consistent with the law of nations to supply
Russia with sulphur, nitre, lead, and iron, it might be
difficult to make a case of war out of subscriptions to a
loan. We may feel greatly and justly aggrieved that a
nation which energetically interferes to prevent one of
its citizens, or even one of its sojourners, if possible,
from enlisting in the cause of European independence, on
the ground of neutrality, should nevertheless in open
day supply our enemy with all the materials of war and
with money to buy them. But a casus belli and a just
grievance are two different things. The former is a
state of affairs under which it becomes meanness not to
declare war. We cannot say the present position of
Prussia imposes upon us the choice between war and
dishonour; but this we do say, that if we could afford
to add Prussit to the side of the enemy, we should be
quite justified in requiring Prussia to desist from helping
that enemy, and, in the event of her obstinacy, deelarieg
war against her, and blockading her Baltic ports.
Under the circumstances, we need feel no delicacy in
looking at the pecuniary aspect of the transaction.
The interest on existing Russian stock is paid in
roubles, which happen at this moment to be greatly
depreciated. A specie payment is already suspended,
tnd the value of Russian paper must henceforth vary
with the prospects of the war ; the King of Prussia
himself, therefore, would hardly oblige his imperial
nephew with a loan, the repayment and interest of
which may assume a very shadowy character. Should
the war go on at the present rate for half a dozen years,
a bundle of Russian assignats will be worth about as
much as the French documents so called at the close of
last century ; so, to satisfy the sagacious German mind,
it is engaged that the interest shall be payable in St.
Petersburg, Hamburg, and Amsterdam at a fixed rate of
exchange, every half-yearly coupon being reckoned at
121 roubles at the Russian capital, or 23 gulden 60
cents. in Amsterdam, or 26 marks, 10 schil sings, 11
pfenning,s in Hamburg. So long, therefore, as Russia is
solvent at all, the lenders are guaranteed their interest
in good Dutch and free German coin. The price, how-
ever, at which the loan is offered, without being very
eagerly caught at, shows that even 5 per cent, secured
from depreciation does not entirely remove the qualms
of the German capitalist. It is offered and but slowly
taksn at 86—that is, below the present price of our own
Tnree per Cents. ndeed is the present state of our
funds, a Five per Cent, stock would be worth 147. The
important guarantee gives to the new loan has had the
very natural effect of adding to the depreciation of the
existing Russian stock, and to the general discredit of
that Government. Of course, on sucha question we shall
be thought interested authorities, but we do not see why
we should conceal a very honest conviction that, after
two or three years, the Berliners will never receive
either a rouble, or a thaler, or a gulden, or even a pfen-
ning of their money. Exhausted of money and of
men, of credit, and even of order, Russia, will find it
by that time quite impossible to pay her creditors any-
thing but promises. It is, of course, but too proba-
ble that about the same time, or stilt earlier, the con-
tagion of the war will have spread into Germany. In
this case the wealth which Prussia is now acquiring in
the service of Russia will go the way of all spoil ; for
the tide of war, as it eddies to and fro across the con-
tinent of Europe, will sweep Germany very clean. The
mass of private suffering this wilt cause will be heart-
rending :enough, but Germany is "making her own
bed, and she must lie upon it."
Even if Prussia is satisfied that she is not violating
the law of uations, the fact that she is now virtually
fighting for Russia might suggest to her the impossi-
bility of a neutral position. She must, it appears, be
either on one side or the other. She must be fur us or
against us, and she is against us. To provide against
any mistake on the point, she does her utmost# to pre,
vent a single German from adding his solitary unit to
our side. A neutrality of this sort, which combines the
immunities of peace with the profits, and airpareutly
the gratifications. of war, may satisfy the German sew)
of honour, and fulfil a new political type in German
philosophy. To our simple understandings it is some-
thing monstrous, hateful, and contemptible. It is some-
thing more. It is a state so contrary to all the con-
ditions on which society staude that it cannot possibly
last long. The day inu.,t soon come in which hollow neu-
trality will be strict of Es pretences, and have to die.
gorge its odious gains. Whateler and whoever now
helps Russia helps her ambition, helps her obstinacy,
helps her infatuation ; helps her to go on with her
desperate game till she has played her last stake ; helps
Ler to destroy her population, to reduco her fields to
deserts, and her cities to bare walls. It would be the

The line-of-battle ship Victoria, 110 guts, built at
Pembroke, is to have her designation changed, as a
larger and finer vessel, now building at ono of the
aouthere yards, is to bear the name of her Majesty. The
Vitoria now on the stocks of Pembroke has been ready
for launching between two and three years ; but, owing
t ) the :_faultiness of her lines, she has not been sent
afloat. She is far too short for her beam ; and the only
way to render her an efficient man-of-war will be to cut
her in two, and make her of heavier rating-in fact,
classing ber with the 131's.
The Imperieuse, 51, screw-frigate, Captain R. B. Wat-
son, C. 8., arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from
the Baltic. The flying squadron continued in the Gulf
of Finland until the weather setting in with rigour com-
pelled the senior officer (Captain Watson) to withdraw
the ships. Intense frost was experienced in Hango
Roads on the 30th tilt. and the three following days,
and it was not until they were in danger of being frozen
in that Captain Watson gave orders for their departure.
The Imperieuse, with the Euryalus, 51, Capt. G. Rant-
say ; Pylades, 21, Capt. D'Eyncourt ; Centaur, 6, Capt.
Clifford, C.B. ; and the Bulldog, 6, Commander A. C.
Gordon, left on the 3d inst. The Centaur's sailing was
delayed a short time in consequence of some of her ma-
chinery being frczen ; she was, however, enabled to
leave with the Imperieuse, and together they steered out
into and down the Gulf of Finland, preserving a middle
course, by which means they had tolerably good sea room
for the gale which blew on the following day-the
heaviest ever experienced since they entered the Baltic.
After blowing furiously the whole of the 4th, a shift of
wind to the southward allowed them to round the Da-
gersort, and drawing to the south-east, after they had
passed that point, i;hey stood to the south-west, towards
Faro, where they arrived on the 7th, in the midst of a
snow storm, in company with the Vulture, from Kiel.
They found all the vessels of the.squadron there, except
the Archer and the Desperate, which were on the coast
of Coui land. The Euryalus had lost her quarter davits,
with four of her boats. The Pylades arrived on the Bth.
The Harrier sailed on the Bth, soon after the departure
of the Imperieuse, which made Kiel in 50 hours, took in
about 70 tons of coal, and at 7 a.m. left under steam for
Spithead, where she and the Harrier, Commander Story,
arrived yesterday.
The William Jackson transport, Capt. Wemyss, arrived
at Spithead on Friday night. She sailed from Spithead
on the 10th ult., with detachments of her Majesty's
54th Regiment, the West York Militia, and Royal Sap-
pers and Miners, arrived at Gibraltar on the 23d, and
sailed on her return for Spithead on the 26th.
The following are the latest movements at Ports-
mouth :-The Edinburgh, 60, Captain Hewlett, C. 8.,
sailed on Saturday for Kingstown (Dublin) to winter ;
the Edina steam transport, No. 199, left on Saturday
for London ; the Imperador and William Jackson trans-
ports went into harbour; the Hamburg, steam trans-
port, No. 50, left on Saturday for Grimsby ; the Mar-
garetta, from Hamburg fur Bahia, and the Vesta from
Bogeuse for Liverpool, put in on Saturday wind bound ;
the Volcano, floating steam smithery, Lieut. Dyer, went
into harbour on Friday evening ; the Dee steam trans-
port arrived on Saturday morning with machinery from
Woolwich ; the Lucifer steam tender left on Saturday
fur Pembroke, with riggers, &c. ; the Marlborough, 131,
screw, got up steam fur the first time to test her ma-
chinery, on Saturday, in the steam basin. On the pres-
sure in the six boilers reaching 201 b. to the square inch
(tlie maximum to which the safety-valves are loaded), no
symptoms of leakage were apparent, and shortly after 10
o'clock, when steam wars first admitted to her ponderous
cylinders, these leviathAS started into motion smoothly,
silently, and to the admiration of all present, and thus
continued fur several hours, the maximum number of
revolutions attained being 42, with steam of 151 b. pres-
sure and throttle-valves partially open. The engines of
this, the largest ship afloat, have been constructed by
Messrs. Maudslay, Sons, and Field, of a similar form to
those of the Princess Royal, 91 gun-ship, but much larger
in proportion, the cylinders being 82 inches in diameter ;
with a stroke of 4 feet, the connecting rods taking imme•
diately into the main line of shafting, to which is affixed
the screw propeller in this instance of over 19 feet in di-
ameter, With a pitch of 26 ft. 9 in. It is surmised that in
her trial trip, which is expected to take place at the end
of the present week, a speed of over 12 knots per hour
will be realised, which will throw into the shade even
the performances of the great " Duke." Should the num-
ber of 50 revolutions be attained (which is fully antici-
pated) the Marlborough's speed will be close upon 13
knots, with steam at 15lb instead of 201 b, throttle-valves
half open. She will have steam up again in the basis
to-morrow. The nominal horse power of her engines is
800. They weigh, with their boilers, about 600 tons,
but occupy less space than those in the Duke. Mr. J.
Devey is her chief engineer (first class). The Blenheim,
SO, Capt. Hall, and the Colossus, 80, Capt. Robinson,
were taken into the old basin on Saturday to refit.
The Neptune, 120, Capt. Hutton, returned to Lisbon
on the 3d inst., after an absence of 10 days at Passe
d'Arcos, where she had been to exercise her crew firing
at targets, and in other evolutions. This ship received
orders by overland telegraph to return immediately
to Spithead, and sailed on the morning of the 9th inst.
It is supposed her crew will be tramsferied, with her
captain, to the new three-decker Marlborough, now
ready fur commission.
The paddle-wheel steam-frigate Magicienne, 16, Capt.
N. Vansittart, which arrived in Plymouth Sound on
Thursday evening, left Hango on the 2941 ult., when
the thermometer was at 3 deg. Fahrenheit, and the ice
was forming so strongly on the south shore that the fly-
ing squadron was forced to retire, and thus raise the
blockade, which had been strictly maintained up to that
(late. She arrived on the 30th ult. at Faro, where she
found the paddle-wheel steam-frigate Retribution, 23,
Capt. T. Fisher, flag of RearAdisirat Robert L. Baynes,
and the paddle-wheel steauesloop Geyser, 6, Commander
R. Dew, two French frigates, and other cruis ire. Here
the engineers of the fleet held a survey on the boilers,
which were so defective that the Magicienne was ordered
home forthwith. She coaled at Fero, sailed on the 2d
inst., arrived on the sth at Elsinore, and left for Ply-
mouth on the 9th. This frigate appears to have been
as actively occupied on the enemy's coast as any ship
the British fleet. She was engaged ten times
with the enemy, and, notwithstanding the diffi-
culty of the navigation and the absence of
local pilots, has sustained no injury-a fact reflecting
much credit on her officers and crew. Subjoined is an
account of some of the principal services which the Ma-
gicienne has rendered. On 27th May, in company with
the paddle-wheel steam-vessel Merlin, 6, C'e.pt. B. J. Sul-
livan, at the north-end of Niorko Sound, she captured
and destroyed 20 of the enemy's ships. Ou the 28th she
saw two gal iota in tow of a war-steamer, gave chase,
when the galliots, laden with granite for the Russian
Government, were captured and burnt, the steamer hav-
ing cast them off and escaped into Sweaborg. On 6th
June two galliots with granite were destroyed at Kanki-
ala Light. On the 7th the Magictenne engaged and drove
off A field battery of artillery at Maxlax, on which occasion
her mooring chain cable was destroyed, and several shots
lodged in her stern. On the 14th she destroyed the fort of
Rotschenslan, and on the 16th scuttled four galliots laden
with granite. On the 20th, in company with the screw
steam-frigate Arrogant, 46, Capt. Hastings R. Yelierton,
at Kotka, mouth of Kymene river, she burnt a number of
barracks sufficient for 5,000 troops, and on the 21st blew
up the walls of the fort. On the 23d, in company with
the crew of the screw steam-gunboat Ruby, 1, in boats
engaged a large body of infantry at Maxlax, and drove
them off. 30 th.-Burnt and sank 29 galliots with granite.
July 5, at Lovisa dispersed a party of Cossacks. 60.-
Burnt and blew up the fort of Svartholen, capable of
mounting 122 guns and a number of mortars. 11th.-
At Kounder Bay skirmished with a body of Cossacks,
who were dispersed by rockets. 12th.-At Pourtisioki
Bay destroyed a guard-house and drove away the enemy.
13th.-A boat expedition from the Magicienne and the
Arrogant, towed by the Ruby, reconnoitred Trang
Sound, and was attacked from a concealed post by a
body of troops consisting of artillery and rites, and also
by three row and one steam-gun-boat. This action con-
tained an hour and three-quarters. The boats accom-
plished the object of the reconnaissanc,e and returned to
the shins with one killed and eight wounded, of whom
two died subsequently. On the night of the 20th of
July the passage into Frederick Sound was buoyed off
under fire of the Russian batteries, and on the morning
of the 21st the fleet entered, the Magicienne taking po-
sition 1,800 yards from the guns ; after an engagement
of two hours the fort was completely silenced. Although
perfectly at the mercy of the fleet, the town was spared.
On the 26th and 27th the destruction of the barracks
and extensive storehouses of Kotka was finished. At the
bombardment of Sweaborg by the allied forces the crew
of the Magicienne had charge of four mortars and two
gun-boat. Since the bombardment this steamer has
been engaged in a variety of blockade duties, and in
towing mortar-boats, &c. She was the last ship to make
a reconnaissance of Sweaborg, and found the Russians
busily occupied in repairing the damage received in tke
attack by the united fleets. The Magicienne went from
Plymouth Sound into Hamoaze on Saturday.
Rear-A(1111ml Sir Michael Seymour changed his flag
on Saturday from blue to white at the mizen on board
the screwatteam-ship Exmouth, 90, Capt. William King
Hall, C. 8., at Plymouth, under a salute of 11 guns.
The crew of the screw steam-ship Nile, 91, Capt. G.
R. Mundy, are to be paid wages at Plymouth this day
(Monday), and granted three weeks' leave of absence.
The crew of the screw steam-ship Sanspareil, 84,
Captain W. J. Williams,
bent sails at Plymouth on
Saturday. She will leave Hainoaze for the Sound this
day (Monday).
The screw steam-sloop Satellite, 20, have received her
boilers and engines, wee towed front Keyham Docks to
the new basin, Devonport dockyard, on Saturday, to
be rigged, previous to being put in commission,
The screw steam mortar ship Forth, 44, was commis-
sioned at Plymouth on Friday by Lieut. L. A. Whitupe,
of the screw steam-ship Sanspareil, 84.
The paddle-wheel steam-ship Hecla, 6,
Ports-
mouth, arrived at Plymouth on Friday. from
The paddle-wheel steam troop-ship Dee, 4, Comman-
der T. C. Pullen, sailed from Portsmouth on Friday for
Woolwich.
Lieutenant a W. Dalyell, who lost his left aim
while serving in the trenches at Sebastopol, on the
unfortunate repulse of the attack on the Redan, he being
in command of one of the scaling ladder brigades, with
seamen who volunteered with Captain William Peel for
that service, has been ordered to proceed from the 'Na-
te rloo flag-ship, at Sheerness, to join ber Majesty's yacht
Victoria and Albert, now at Portsmouth. Lieutenant
Dalyell left on Friday to take up his appointment.
The Cheerful, 2, screw steam gun-boat, Lieut. William
Hector Rason, commander, arrived at Sheerness at 4
p.m. on Saturday, from Woolwich, having had her com-
passes adjusted at Greenhithe. She proceeded on a trial
of speed and steering qualities. She at present draws
under 5 feet water. She is the first of the new class
gun-boat, built to be available, with her armament, to
consist of two long 32 pounder guns and two 121 b.
howitzers. With a pressure of 601 b. on the square inch

The Concordat arranged between the Emperor of
Austria and the Pope has spread dismay among the mob
of the Filth of November Protestants. Your Rye. House
Christians see in this snolement a prodigious addition to
the strength of Popery. Evangelists of the Titus Oates
and Protestant Manual order have been smitten with
the itch of prophecy. The shadow of Guy Fawkes looms
in the proximate distance. They gaze on it as on a vision
of coming «vents. They behold the Scarlet Lady shift-
ing her seat on the seven hills to an ottoman on High-
gate or Richmond. Because an imbecile autocrat has
dyspepsia and religion, they think "the wan of perdi-
tion" has proved too many for the "children of light."
Now our interpretation of these "signs and wonders" is
somewhat different from this. Had we paid Pio Nono
to do the work of Martin Luther, he could not have per-
formed it more effectually than by the impetration of
this piece of waste paper from the obfuscated weakness
of Francis Joseph, It is a Concordat between a priest
and his dupe, that is all. It is buying and selling the
souls and consciences of a nation without taking the na-
tion itself at all into consideration. It is disposing of the
spiritual action of a people, without recognising them as
in any degree entitled to a voice in the matter. A Con-
cordat between pontiff and tyrant, it will prove a Dis-
cordat with the latter and his slaves. How could the
Emperor of Austria do the work of revolution more
effectually than, in this latter half of the nineteenth
century, to insult the manhood and intelligence of his
subjects by an insolence so daring as this open insult
and brazen defiance of the progress of mind, and the
slow but measured tread of spiritual liberty ? Is it
possible to believe that abject prostration of the German
soul at the footstool of the Vatican really increases the
power and influence of the latter over it ? Is not Ger-
many the country of schools, colleges, metaphysics,
theology, criticism ? Is not Austria surrounded by
Protestant States ? Does it not speak the vernacular of
Greisbach and Strauss ? It is not by law that men can
be made to believe. Edicts of secular authority hare no
efficacy with the conscience. All the policemen in the
world cannot catch a soul—no dungeon can darken or
prison incarcerate it. The "spirit that is in man" rises
and rebels instinctively against all the mere fetters of '
secular authority. Monarchs may inscribe Concordats
on tablets of stone, but never on the fleshly tables of the
heart. This Papal movement is worse than a crime (for
it is a crime against the human mind), it is a blunder.
We shall not have long to wait for the proof of it. If
the Austrians were the willing slaves of the Vatican they
would swear fealty without the compulsion of a legal de-
cree. If they be not, the Concordat will not make them.
The "children of this world" have not, on this occasion,
been " wise in their generation." In fact, this is not
their generation ; that age passed, and they will not,
or—struck with judicial blindness—they cannot see it.
In this age the intellect, even of the masses, is too sub-
tle to be enchained in these clumsy fetters. All Germany
is in arms against this daring offence against, at least,
the decencies of political life. It finds itself inscribed
by its civil ruler upon the nanster-roll of the great spiri-
tual slave•driver of the world. It sees the nationalism
even of its hierarchy ignored. It looks upon its Sove-
reign as but the roost willing to proclaim his subjection
to a foreign authority. It burns with shame and indig-
nation at this scandalous abdication of national indepen-
dence. No enemy to Popery is half so deadly as the
Pope. Bit do not we, the Protestants, commit the
same folly here ? A Popish priest has been prosecuted
by a Popish Attorney-General, in Ireland, for what is
called the crime of Bible-burning. Well ; he has got
off. A boy, Reeking fun at the bon-fire, was prosecuted
also—elevated, in the year of his first pair of breeches,
into the dignity of being an enemy of the State of Great
Britain, Ireland and their dependencies ! He has
got off too. Was ever se bold and extravagant a
farce? What, have we not Bibles enough that we can-
not spare some as a holocaust to the rampancy of Mile-
sian theological zeal ? Father What's-his-Name has at
least made more work for the printers. The Bibles were
his property—may he not "do what he likes with his
own ?" Commercially we would call Protestant pr:Svo-
cations to this arson of the Scriptures a sort of " spoil-
ing the Egyptians." The more the holy father burns
the more he will have to pay—his pocket will tire of the
job touch sooner than the Queen's printer. After ail,
what harm is done by kindling a fire with paper smeared
with ink, and bound in calf ? Because the paper was
peculiarly smeared, with types speoifisally arranged, is
that any reason for the virtuous indignation of Mr. At-
tor es'-General ? The Bible I

gratiori of a COPY of it.
attach such peculiar sanctity to the mere symbol of
evangelism —we ourselves are rushing into the very
heresy of Romanism. In this case tire thing burnt was
hut a type, a symbol of a reverential idea, no proper
subject for the veneration of that Protestantism whicli
asserts, that "the letter killeth, and -the spirit alone
maketh alive." There are worse uses made of the Bible
than burning it. This canting rogue snivels out its
itoexts, and thereby picks your pockets. That oily
hypocrite " steals into widows' houses" by it, "leading .
captive the minds of silly women, led away of divers
lusts." So when yonder sot crawls to "my anele"'with
" the big ball Bible once his father'S pride,". he pawns its.
for gin, and gets drank with the proceeds. Why should
the Attorney-General pretend to patronize Christianity ?
Why should not religion he left to protect itself
without being "countenanced" by the law? If
the Bible cannot protect itself from profanation, can
a. policeman do it ? Were we actuated by the mere
motives of a Protestant Polemic, we would secretly
pay these Irish idiots to make a parade of their hatred of
that book from which Protestant and Catholic alike claim
to derive, the one his faith, the other his authority. If
the object of these hot-brained iNliles;an Blunderbores be
to proselytise the heretic, what chance have they by be-
ginning their work by the awful blasphemy of desecrat-
ing what,lieliolde in the deepest reverence. If they de-
sire to preserve their own flocks from straying into for-
' bidden pastures; they do hope to do it by insulting their
peaceable and friendly neighbour's religion, or by dis-
playing their fear that the plain construction of the
Word of God condemns their own religious profession ?
What is an unsophisticated Romanist to think when he

he put into the hand of a Protestant missionary when he
plainly confesses by his own acts that he dreads free in-
quiry ; that he expects that hie people will fall away
from Catholicism if they are permitted to read the
Scriptures Is it not possible to expose what the Popish
priest regards as the niistranslations, the uncanonical
character of seine, the spuriousness of other parts of the
authotised version of the Bible calmly, learnedly, and
charitably, without shocking, by a crew of crazy Milesian
polemics, the most sensitive of all feelings, that of vene-
ration of sacred things, by open dishonour of the books
held holy by five-sixths of the people of this country. If

worship. The mass book may be set to doggerel, high
mass itself may be introduced in a pantomime, and a
clown substituted for a cardinal before the altar. The
host may be borne in mockery through the streets of Dub-

the Surrey or Atitley'si. Nothing but the good sense
and the good feeling of the Protestant population
saves our Catholic countrymen from these outrages
on their sense of piety—why should Papists living
in such glass houses venture to throw stones ? It
is not Protestantistn that is endangered by these Peche-
rine pranks—it is religion itself. If Protestantism is not
secure against outrage from Papists', how can they claim
protection for their common Christianity against the
blasphemy of Socialism, or the ridicule of the Atheist ?

Prince Albert

ndthe
Duke of Cambridge the chiefs of the aristocratic regi-
ments. Prince Albert never ceuld earn a colonelcy, it
was never intended that he should have the chance, and
the Duke of Cambridge at that period had never seen a
field of battle. Since that period his own courage and
good nature, and the equal good nature of the soldiers
and the public, have made up for the Duke a military
reputation, one, however, which minified to Royal blood,
would never have placed him in the position which he
holds. We protested at the time, in language quoted
almost throughout Europe, against the sharing of the old
lion's spoils among those who had shown no token that
they were of his race, to the disparagement and the de-
nial of those who had seen service and shed bleed for ho•
pour and command. But this discouraging unfairness was
not the only evil seed sown. The Prince and the Duke
became attached not so much to the army in general as
to the privileged part of it ; and now that we are all
striving, as for the salvation of our country, to make
merit and reward go hand in hand throughout the forces,
we find the parties promoted by mere favour, by the
mere accident of rank, assuming all the authority of
their gratuitous position to give weight to the claims of
the exclusive body they are attached to against the rights
of the army in general. Worse than this, Prince Albert,
if he exerts any influence in the military administration
(and we cite the Times as asserting that he uses much),
constitutes himself judge in his own concerns. He is
invested with a property which he ought never to have
had, for in his case army command assumes the nature
of mere property :more than in any other, and he has
means of asserting the interests of those allied to it, his
subalterns and proteges, which the worthiest veteran has
not. A memorial, signed by the officers of the Guards,
and headed by these two Colonels, has, it is said, been
presented to the Queen, representing the injustice of a
recent regulation by which all Lieutenant-Colonels, doing
effective duty as field-officers for three years, become full
Colonels. The Guards' Captains are, by a most unjust
regulation, Lieutenant Colonels in the army ; and as
only two of these Captain-Colonels do a pirallel duty to
the Lieutenant-Colonels in the line, the new method of
promotion interferes with the exclusive claims of the rest
of them. Such we understand to be the state of the
case, stripped of professional technicalities. We find
that the Guards solicit an "equality with their more
fortunate brethren of the line," that is, we suppose,
that all their Captains shall become full Colonels by
three years' bona fide service as Captains. This is, in-
deed, " too bad." Not to go into the accidental statis-
tics of the army list, we put this to thearistocraticGuards-
men :—Here is one of your Captains, who went as such
into the Crimea 13 months ago, or less, and, having
never before seen an enemy, he is now the Commander-
in-Chief of the largest army England ever mustered in
the field. Will not Sir W. Codrington's a,dvanCement
show that you have, at least, fair play? Is not the
English public at this moment ominously silent upon
this selection, as hesitating between the fear of doing an
injustice to a pre-eminently capable man, and the doubt
that some unfit influence has been used to bring about
this unprecedented rise ? Let the aristocrats, and their
princely patrons along with them, be sure of this, that
what is gained for the efficiency of the Army is gained
for ever, and that to attempt to take it back is to raise
such a spirit as will soon settle the debate about privi-
lege in general. But it ie alleged that this memorial has
been got up " secretly. The reliance, it is asserted, is
upon the inflUmice of the signatures. Wo most earnestly
protest against this presumed influence. If Priece
Albert signs the memorial as a Colonel, he must be
treated only as a Colonel. If lie is " two gentlemen is
one," and draws a distinction between the Queen's.hus-
band and the officer, we must insist upon it too. Ho
must be treated as the Hon. Colonel Snooks would be.
The one thing which this public will certainly not bear
is, thatht German Prince shall ally himself with an aris-
tocratic caste and have the opportunity of secret govern-
ment in its intetest. The marriage of Queen Victoria
had no :Rich meaning in the eyes of any British citizen.
The government of this country is conducted through
the Queen's responsible Ministers. They have difficulties
enough to encounter in wresting the conduct of the Army

which prevents the private from rising in the ordinary
way to the rank of an officer. A young man of an
emulative temperament (and such are the material for
soldiers) will not enter a service in which he is told he
shall not rise beyond the grade of a eerjearit. If he, by
miracle, gets a commission, he is tolerated, not welcomed,
and his position only becomes an embarrassment by the
habits of the Moneyed and caste oligarchy about him ;
and while he remains iii the ranks he is one of a pro-
scribed class, weighed down by the consciousness that he
is looked upon as having no possibility in him of be-
coming the equal of the marl who commands lime This
must be changed, an-I the Ministers are answerable to
the people for effecting this change in full. Sooner or
Liter the day of reckonino, will come, and many like our-
selves stand pledged and determined never to cease call-

bly Lord Hardinge, have to settle the affair with the
Parliament. A reformed one may dispose of it. Those
about the Court may be private gentlemen if they please,
no one envying them. But if they give counsel it must
clearly be in the general interest unmistakeably under-
stood ; and if they step out of their household sphere,
the very act must renounce the other advantages; of their
position. Prince Albert has lectured the people of Eng-
land upon Parliamentary government in war times. Let
him be its ready to learn his own constitutional position
in the same arduous conjuncture.

part of a true friend to bring Russia to reason, if not-by
a more active protest, at least by a real neutrality. Had
Russia possessed such advisers in her immediate neigh-
. bours it might have saved her the loss of honour, pro-
bperity, half a million men, and half a century of pro-
• gress. But hitherto all her neighbours have done has
been to watch for some miserable private gain out of
her difficulties and distresses. The one has sidled into
the Danubian provinces with the hardly disguised inten-
tion of staying there till driven out ; the other has got
some traffic and an investment for its profits. Is it the
Jaw of Providence that selfish interlopers shall always
succeed, that the baser end shalt always be obtained
in
place of the higher, and that the noblest actions shall be
frustrated and sp,ilt by ridiculous episodes ? We trust
that Prussia will one day find it is not.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

OXFORD CIRCUIT-HEREFORD, DEC. 15.
FORGERY BY A MIIRVEYOR.

George Drury, a young man of respectable connoxionß'
was charged with forging a cheque fur 37/. 89., upon
Messrs. Hoskyns' bank, at Hereford, on the 16th June
last.

Mr. Matthews and Mr. Cleave prosecuted, and Mr.
Skinner defended the prisoner.
Mr. Hughes, cashier At the City and County Bank at
Hereford, deposed that on the above-mentiored day the
prisoner presented a cheque signed "R. T_Tuderwood "
for 371. Ek, and that he cashed the cheque for him. Wit-
ness at the same time cashed a second cheque for him,
drawn by his employer, Mr. Stephens.
Mr. Stephens proved that the prisoner cashed a cheque
for him on the day in question, and the deposition of Mr.
Underwood (who was ill) was put in, and which proved
that the forged cheque had not been signed by him.
Proof was also given that the middle leaf of a blank
cheque book had been abstracted from the office of Mr.
-Underwood, and that the numbers upon the lost cheques
corresponded with those upon the cheques produced.
The prisoner, it seems, had occasionally been in the
offiCe where the cheque book wag kept.
_ The jury found him guilty, and he was sentenced to
four years' penal servitude.

EGGS.—From 1835 to 1846 the annual value of eggs
exported from Belgium was only about 170,000 fr., but
in 1847 it began to increase rapidly, and in 185:1 amounted
to 800,000 fr., in 1853 to 1,200,000 fr., and in 1854 to
1,40,000 fr. Large quantities of Portuguese eggs are
imported into England by the Peninsular mail-packets.
A short time since eggs were sold in Lisboa for 4s, a
hundred. They are now selling there for 11d. each, or
12s. 63. a hundred.
CROSSING CHEQUES.—The Econonti/t suggests that, if
Inure security be required than the present practice of
crossing cheques affords, it is ea-uly obtained, and now
at, a mere nominal cost, by drawing a cheque to order in
the form of a bill of exchange requiring endorsement.
Bills on demand require now only a stamp of one penny
for any amount, and there can therefore be neither diffi-
culty nor hardship in adopting this more secure mode
when greater safety is required. The trading community
have au easy and cheap remedy in their own bands,
withdlut going to the Government, as has been recom-
mended.

Leave its venerable sanctity to the guardianship of public
