COURT OF ALDERMEN.

` I Y este:l.day a court, which was numerously attended,
was held! for despatch of public business.
rf he first portion of the sitting was occupied by a
le to!,thy motion of which Alderman Wilson had given
no title, .condemning Alderman Sidney, and imputing
mo tives to him on account of a notice of motion which
he
` r,ave in November last, and in which the policy of
Lor d A berdeen was censured. Alderman Wilson's
mot ion found little favour with the members of the
cool t.

A .derrean FAREBROTHEP. hoped that Alderman Wilson
woul d withdraw Ins motion, and that the court would
consider that Alderman Sidney had acted inadvertently
in bringing, a political subject before the court.
Ala !erman COPELAND said that Alderman Sidney had
a right • to withdraw the motion. of which he had given
notice, if he thought proper, and having done so, it was
an act c f discourtesy to 'Asa either to discuss its merits
or to adi -ert to it in his absence. Nothing was more
censura.b; e than to attack a man in his absence, and he
thoUght t hat Alderman Sidney was net well used in the
debate w hich took place in that court in reference to
t he witha :rawal of his motion, and it ought to be a source
of ' some c onsolation to him to know that whilst not only
hip broths .en, but also the press censured him for the line
he had to ken, a few days afterwards the daily papers
con, 'iced .the minister of the crown in exactly the same
way that the alderman had previously done.
Afi'or a few words from Alderman WILSON, the mo-
tion vr. se w ithdrawn.

A ro, port was read on the state of the debtors inWhite-
cross-sth 'vet Prison by the governor. It appeared that
on the 1, sth inst. there were 234 prisoners in confine-
ment, of whom 9 were women. The total number com-
mitted the course of the year was 1,932, being an
increase c
‘f 220 on the preceding year. During the
in

admitted, has not lost a single horse—a memorable ex
ample of what may be done by forethought and huma.
nity,- and an exploit as honourable as the most brilliant
achievement on the field of battle.

The, last suggestion on this-;ubject to which we have
to call the attention of our readers is the great want felt
in our army of realty light cavalry. We have, indeed
many reginients rejoining in this appellation, becausi
they contrive to load the horse when in heavy march
ing, ordcr with a weight something under 19 stone
Such troops, however usefAin 'a charge bri solid in resist•
ing an attack, are 'only "light" by comparison, and are.
quite unable to perform those duties; for which, cavalry are
more peculiarly calcrila ted. There is, indeed,- very little ()if,
ference between "heavy" and "light" in the English army.
It may be said of all our cavalry that their weight
renders them. unfit for active outpost duty, such as pa-
trods, escorts, orderlies, and messengers with orders and
correspondence. For there purposes we require an active
corps, composed of men cf lighter weight, for whose
height there should be fixed 'a maximum instead' of a
minimum, mounted on active horses, with arms and
equipments to correspond. The English Dragoon horse
can seldom be supplied out of England. 'However effi-
cient in a charge, —a consideration to which everything
else is sacrificed,—be 'cannot, it lost, be replaced except
from home. A Dragoon who has lost his horse in Tur-
key is as effectually dismounted as if there was not an-
°thir herse in the country,being reduced to the conditlon
of the .Norman Rollo,- who was obliged to perforin all
his journeys on foot, because there was found no steed
strong enough to carry him. But really light cavalry,,
such as we have suggested, would find no difficulty in
remounting themselves even in the Crimea, and thus
have saved the endless expense .and delay which seem
likely to wait upon our•attemptstomaintaina•respectable
cavalry force witti the army. ' •
It seems to result from these observations, that, great
as is the loss which we have undoubtedly- sustained by
the storm:of the 14th 'of November, by the inclemency
of the weather, and the deep and miry nature of the
ground, the causes which have destroyed our hprses lie
deeper, and would have asserted their fatal efficacy,
though not to the same extent,, even dad these • special
circumstances been wanting. A short time ago we
should not have thought it fitting to trouble the gene-
ral reader with these military details and disquisi-
tions, high as is the iiithority from which we derive*
them; 'but we share in common,with the public the con-
viction that these things can no longer be• left to be
managed, as they have been, by purely professional
minds. If that common sense which appears everywhere
so deplorably wanting is at length. to be introduced into
our military system, it must be through the agency of
public opinion, and it therefore becomes a duty to assist
in forming that opinion; by laying before it the sugges-
tions of, mature experience and the conclusions of sound
reason.—Tintes.

BAGGAGE AND TRANSPORT CORPS.

We learn from a respectable source that the Govern-
ment is about to organise a baggage and transport
corps. The officers will be selected from the East India
Company's army. They will rank with officers of her
Majesty's service. Colonel M`Murdo is to have the
command, and he, with some other officers and men
selected from the metropolitan police, will sail next
week for Constantinople. The policemen will form the
nucleus of the corps, which will then be completed at
Constantinople by Turkish recruits.

MEETING- OF PARLIAMENT.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Jan. 16.—We have again to report a
very dull market. Buyers for India have scarcely ope-
rated at all, and will in most cases await their letters by
the mail, which has now been telegraphed as having
reached Trieste. These letters may be expected about
Wednesday next. Purchases for the home trade and
most of the shipping markets are made with much cau-
tion, but prices are mostly steady. The trade in long-
cloths, T-cloths, and other fabrics suited to the Greek
trade, continues an exception to the general rule, a fair
business still existing, although the accumulation of
packages of goods at Liverpool for which no shipment
can yet be secured is rather considerable. In yarns the
same flatness prevails which marks the cloth market,
but prices are sustained. Rather more business is doing
for the Mediterranean than for other quarters.
Of the cloth market Messrs. John Slagg and Co. re-
port :
"The improved feeling which we noticed on Tuesday
last has gradually subsided along with the faith in the
report which gave rise to it, and we have again'to report
a dull, inactive market. The heavier fabrics for the
Mediterranean and Levant are still in the best position,
but even in these there is less disposition to operate
than there has been for a long time past. In India
goods there is still very little doing, but, so far, there
are no ac,cumulations of stock, and prices are well sup-
ported."
Messrs. G. Fraser, Son, and Go, say—
" There has been a quiet market, without any notice.
able change in prices,
LERDS, Jan. 16.—There has been a moderate attend.
ance of buyers in the Cloth-halls this morning, but not
quite a full average business has been done. Purchases
are limited to small quantities, little being doing yet,
for either the home or the foreign trade, in spring goods.
Prices remain steady.

A BALLOONING HINDOO.—The Bombay Times says
Rajah Issan Chaltdersing, Secretary to the British Indian
Association, made a balloon ascent on Nov. 22d, at
juntroo Candy, where his palace is situated. The bal-
loon was constructed under his own directions, and he
;waged the docent entirely by llinaelf..

RUSSIA.

The following letter from St. Petersburg, dated
Jan. 6, has just been received :
The festivities have taken their customary phy-
siognomy, and religious ceremonies, visits, guljame,
and dinner parties, are the order of the day and
night. A Christmas tree of unusual magnificence
has been despatched to Prince Menschiff. The
town of Sebastopol has abio received a gift. Scarfs,
embroidered with laurels, are at present the fashion
and even children's playthings show the prevailing
warlike mania. In these games, all representing
military scenes, the English and French, asyou may
imagine, got much the worst of it. A. Cossack is,
for instance, represented in full charge, with half
a dozen red-coats and Frenchmen transfixed by his
lance.

Can what is reported to-day be true—that the
Court is inclined towards peace ? Or is it a brilliant
but hollow glass bubble, to be hung on the Christ-
mas tree of the people ? If we merely obtain time
by peace conferences, whereby Austria is of course
prevented from action, and must for months sacri-
fice her pecuniary resources to the support of the
army, the gain for us will be immense.
Both here and in Gatschina church parades have
taken place. In the following year a universal
war tax is to be collected, but in what manner has
not been decided in the Ministry of War.
General Dannenberg had arrived in Odessa.
General Read, governor of the Transcaucasian
provinces, was expected there, obviously to confer
on the campaign in Asia, which will commence in
July or August.

THE MEDITERRANEAN.

MALTA, JAN. 11, 1855.
The 14th Regiment embarked yesterday morn-
ing on board the Emeu, and shortly after she pro.
ceeded on to the Crimea.

Sir George Brown and the Duke of Cambridge,
who are staying here, appear to be rapidly recover-
ing, and aro walking about enjoying our beautiful
weather. It is wonderful to me how rapidly the
invalids recover here.

Trafalgar and St. George arrived in our harbour
to-day. The harbour is looking quite gay again,
with four three-deckers in it. Admiral Stopford
arrived in H.M.S. Trafalgar; it is said to relieve
Admiral Houston Stewart, who is to go second in
command in the Black Sea. He will be a great
loss to Malta.

The Neptune, 120, sailed for England in the
afternoon, and she was soon to be followed by the
Britannia, whose crew are now on shore enjoying
their holiday ; and the Trafalgar will also leave for.
England next week. The Trent will steam away
to-morrow for the Crimea, with some 300 mules and
a few Spanish muleteers, and a variety of stores
for the army. _

The 9lst, who came out passengers is the St.
George, have been landed, and the vessel is to re-
turn to England.
In a letter from a very high placed general
officer, dated January 3, we read that owing to
our forces having been so thinned by sickness fully
half of our lines have been necessarily relinquished
to be manned by the French ; and it was the
writer's opinion that the assault would not take
place until February, and that at least fifty other
pieces of cannon were requisite.
Colonel Gostling, Royal Artillery, has gone up in
the Emeu to see his son, who is wounded, and in
hospital at Scutari.

The new members for the Council of Govern-
ment were sworn in to-day, and his Excellency,
Sir W. Reid, gives an evening party on the occa-
sion.

The cholera is very bad at Scutari. Mr. and
Mrs. Lucas Ward were both at dinner with some
friends the last day of the year; they all sat the
old year out and new year in, apparently is good
health. In a few hours Mr. Ward was seized with
cholera ; at noon he was a corpse. His wife died
the next day.
Lord and Lady Guernsey have returned to
Malta. Her ladyship looks anything but well after
her hard work at Scutari. Some who have come
down speak in the highest terms of her kindness,
not only with her purse, but by personal attentions
to the sick and woundod.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived.
The Queen had not approved of the new organisa-
tion of the royal household, having taken time to
examine it ; it is based on that of the court of Eng-
land. The Clamor Public° mentions a report that
M. Patricio de la Escosura is to be nominated Am-
bassador Extraordinary in Portugal, and is to
attend in that capacity the coronation of Don
Pedro V. The sale of the ecclesiastical and na-
tional property was continuing with marked suc
cess ; the biddings everywhere had exceeded thp
upset prices. It was thought that in the course of
the year the sales will amount to between
300,000,000 and 400,000,000 reals.
The Duchess of Genoa has sant I,ooofr. to the

BOMBARDMENT AND DESTRUCTION

OF SWEABO.RG.

We hear from an English merchant at Elsineur, who
has received letters from Russian merchants at Helsing-
fors, that the loss sustained by the Russians in the late
bombardment of Sweaborg is something enormous, and
beyond anything the public despatches would lead one
to suppose.

Thi) three-deck and two-deck ships which were
moored across the passages were so severely injured that
they have since sunk.

Fifteen gun-boats were destroyed by our shells and
red-hot shot.

The third explosion which did so much damage was
a magazine of 80 tons of powder ; it killed 700 men,
and destroyed in a great measure the principal fortifica-
tions, and, in fact, scattered destruction in every di-
rection as it communicated to the shell-magazines along
the batteries.

All the winter stores of provisions IA e,e completely de-
stroyed, and, as ww first supposed, everything that could
burn is most effectually consumed.
The Russians admit a loss-of 2,500 men, and, consi-
dering that not a soul is allowed to pass from Helsing-
fors to Sweaborg, and only men in high authority
allowed to leave Sweaborg, we may imagine their losses
are much greater than they acknowledge to. This is a
heavy blow, and if the Government are active this win-
ter in preparing suitable gun and mortar boats, with
plenty of spare mortars, Cronstadt, Revel, &0., will be
similarly treated next year.

THE QUEEN'S DESPATCPSON.H TO GENERAL
DISPATCH
Lord Panmnre has addressed the following telegraphic
despatch to General Simpson :

WAR-DEPARTMENT, SEPT. 12.
The Queen has received with deep emotion the welcome
intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol.
Penetrated with profound gratitude to the Almighty,
who has vouchsafed this triumph to the Allied Army, her
Majesty has commanded me to express to yourself, and,
through you, to the Army, the pride with which she re-
gards this fresh instance of their heroism.
The Queen congratulates her troops on the triumphant
issue of this protracted siege, and thanks them for the
cheerfulness and fortitude with which they have encoun-
tered its toils, and the valour which has led to its termi-
nation.
The Queen deeply laments that this success is not with-
out its alloy in the heavy losses which have been ens.
tained ; and, while she rejoices in the victory, her Mpjesty
deeply sympathizes with the noble sufferer's in their cowl= try's cause.
You will be pleased to congratulate General Pelissier,
in her Majesty's name, upon the brilliant result of the as-
sault on the Malakhoff, which proves the irresistible force
as well as indomitable courage of our brave Allies.

. CORPORATION ESTATES FOR SALE.—The Evening
Post states as a startling fact that on Saturday last a
committee of the Dublin town council- was appointed to
consider the expediency of selling off all the estates the
property of the corporation. The attempt is regarded
by the Post as a practical mo%-ement to extinguish the
metropolitan municipal body—an event which, if con-
summated, would perhaps, after all, be received by the

A few nights ago Charles Moore, an under-keeper,
and four others, in the employ of the Marquis of Staf-
ford, were watching between RoUgh Park and Lilly-
hurst, Salop, three-quarters of a mile from Lilleshall,
when they became aware of poachers netting hares. The
keepers made for the men and Moore laid bold of two
of them, upon which a fight ensued, when ten to fifteen
others came to their rescue, armed with bludgeons,. and
succeeded in releasing their companions, when they all
made off.

t4FATAL GIG ACCIDENT AT (POMO'EERY. Two
MEN KILLED —Mr George Kynoch, manager of the
distillery at Kirkliston, belonging to Messrs. John
Stewart and Co., of this city, was entering Queensferry
in a gig, on Wednesday forenoon hat, accompanied by
Mr. WM. Gilfillan, painter, of Gordon-street, Glasgow.
The approach along which they were passing is down hill,
and from something getting wrong with the harness the
horse started off, dashini, in toward-the town at a furious
rate; when one of the wleelsb of the vehicle came into vio-
lent contact with a corner kerb-stone, jolting up the gig,
when Mr. Gilfillan was projected on to the road. A few
paces farther on a second stone was encountered,
and Mr. Kynoch was precipitated on to the road
in the same way as his companion. The horse
and vehicle were immediately brought to a stand un
scathed. The gentlemen who had been thrown out were
found to have alighted on their heads within a few yards
of each other, and Mr. Gilfillan only lived Y a few minutes,
while his companion was killed on the spot. Mr. Kynocl,
was 26 years of age, unmarried, and belonged to Aber-
exert. Mr. Gilfillan had been doing some work at Mr.
Robert Stewart's house, near the distillery at Kirkliston :
and, having been there examining the workmen's pro.
grel-s, had accepted of a drive into Queensferry, tendered
him by Mn, Kynooh,—(nartgow Poor,

THE MILITIA.

An extensive range of buildings destined for barracks,
tq accommodate 3,000 militia, has been some time in
progress at what is called the Ordnance-field, near Col-
chester, and is now fast approaching completion. They
comprise a series of huts, replete with every accommo-
dation, arranged in six rows, with carriage-way between
each row. Each hut is feet by 20 feet, and has 10
window?. Those for the officers are arranged each in
four divisions, with separate entrances, so as to give dis-
tinct accommodation to each officer. There will be a
church calculated for 800 persons, as also ample hospital
accommodation, including that for the medical staff, as
well as very spacious schoolrooms.
The South Devon Militia, is now stationed on Maker
Heights, near Mount-Edgecumbe, in Cornwall, and is
disposed of in five separate redoubts and a small encamp-
ment of some 30 tents. This is the first relaxation which
has been accorded from garrison duty for 18 months, the
last four of which were passed in billets at Plymouth.

win, it is said, found " a new order of chivalry—the
Order of the Immaculate Conception." The King of
Naples, it is widely reported, will receive the very first
Order—and for this sufficient reason. He will become a
Knight of the Immaculate Conception, because as Pnli
he is a potentate more easily conceived than detcnbed.

PRUSSIA.

In consequence of the reduction of the Prussian
artillery, the sale of a number of horses commenced

so well merited the highest honours and most substan-

lity similar to that which so lately produced more than
1,1001. sterling to the Wellington College, he has
determined on devoting the whole proceeds of Mon-
day next, and every night throughout the week, to a
fund for the solace of the wounded, and the alleviation of
the sufferings of the widows and the orphane. Who can re-
sist such a claim? Who will refuse to add his mite, for
which he will receive such ample value, to render the
"Cremorne Ftind" worthy of the spirit in which it has
been conceived? The appeal strikes home to the hearts of

THE MEDITERRANEAN.

MARSEILLES, Sept. 11.—An order was received
here this afternoon by the military authorities not
only to suspend the embarkation of boriabshells,
which were being shipped in great quantities, but
likewise to land those already shipped on board the
transports in the harbour. This order is the na-
tural consequence of the glorious capture of the
southern portion of Sebastopol by the allied armies,
announced here yesterday morning by private de-
spatches, and confirmed by a despatch subsequently
received by the Prefect, and read to the public at
the theatre last evening. The despatch was re-
ceived by a crowded house with great cheering and
enthusiastic cries of " Vive l'Empereur," and
" Vive la France." The splendid victory is being
officially announced this evening, by the firing of
the guns of the forts. Preparations are likewise
being made to illuminate the public buildings.

RIO MARKETS.

AUGUST 11.
Taken altogether, the business of the month was to a
full average amount.

Imparts were upon an extensive scale, and as a neces-
sary consequence most descriptions declined in value.
Little was done in produce early in the month, in
consequence of high prices and adverse advices from
Europe.

A scarcity of bills upon Earope rendered the exchange
flit for the steamer. In other respects the money market
offered but little interest.

Discounts ruled at 8. to 91; 9 was the general rate
for approved paper. A fair inquiry prevailed through-
out the month.

Exchange opened later than usual, the bulk of the
transactions having occurred from the 11th to the 13th.
London, 274 t,) at 90 de. were the first rates quoted,
and the market rapidly declined t,) 27 ds., the closing
quotation for Avon, and the rate at which the largest
amount was negotiated.

PERNAMBUCO.
IMPORTS.—Within the short interval since the date of
the last market account, not a vessel with cargo has
entered the port.
EXPORTS.—Sugar—We cannot note anything of mo-
ment with regard to this article, and the little we have
now on hand in store is held at higher prices than pur-
chasers are inclined to give.
In Ex:thange, about 1.5,000/. have been passed within
the two or three days prior to the departure of the
steamer, at 27k, and we consider the rate firm.
In discounts bank rate continues at 7 per cent. per
annum, and they hold a good amount for negotiating.
