THE PENINSULAR MAIL

SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-
ship Iberia, Captain E. Christian, with the Penin-
sular mail, arrived this evening, at five o'clock.
The freight of the Iheria consists of 27 packages
of specie (value, 8,0001.), 35 boxes of eggs, 380
half-chests of oranges, 35 boxes of onions, 225
boxes of dates, and 231 boxes of potatoes.
The latest dates are :—Gibraltar. April 21 ;
Cadiz, 22 ; Lisbon, 24 ; Oporto, 25 ; and Vigo, 26.
The cumber of
passengers brought by the Iberia
amounts to 81, among whom are Madame Alboni
and suite, Count and Countess Papoli, Lieut.-
Colonel Rose, RE., &C.
The Iberia likewise brings home eight of the
crew of the Natal, which was stranded on the
shores of Conil, which vessel has become a com-
plete wreck.
The Iberia spoke the following vessels :—Her
Majesty's ship Medusa, and the Peninsular and
Oriental Company's steam-ship Alma, steaming 12
knots against a head wind.
We learn from Gibraltar that the two Spaniards
who waylaid and shot Mr. Fenton,. an English (Tell -
tleman from Yorkshire, have been apprehendedb
and delivered over to the bands of justice. It will
be recollected that the deceased was pursuing his
way to a farm at some distance from Algesiras,
when he was waylaid by these two monsters. The
body was buried in the Protestant Cemetery.

COURT OP QUEEN'S BENOFI, APRIL 30.—THE QUEEN
V. COYLE.—In this case, which was a rule for a new trial,
on the ground that additional evidence had come to light
since the defendant's conviction, Lord Campbell, in de-
livering judgment, said he was satisfied with the, verdict
on the trial, according to the evidence then adduced ;
but, as new evidence could now be brought forward,
the court considered the defendant should have the benefit
of an investigation before another jury. The rule for a
new trial would, therefore, be made out. Rule accord-
ingly.

THE TELEGRtiPTI 11t0:11 BALA.KLAVA.

Sir C. WOOD said the telegraph from Balaklava to

perhaps exclusively so.

_
THE LOAN BILL.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXC HEVER appealed,
to the house to allow this bill to be read a third time
and sent to the House of Lords this evening.
Mr. SPOONER, said it was not his wish to oppose
the Government on this question ; but if any debate
were to take place on the Loan Bill, he must oppose the
motion.
The bill was then read a third time and passed.

pense of storehouses and arms to the militia regiments.

DRUBY-LANE THEATRE.

The last three representations of Les Cosaques by the
talented artistes from the Theatre de in Gaiti will posi-
tively take place this week—viz., to-night, Thursday,
and Saturday. It is much to be regretted that the conge
granted was for so limited a period ; but we can well
imagine the void created in the Parisian capital by the
absence of these clever artistes. To those who have not
yet visited Drury-lane Theatre an opportunity still exists
to witness one of the most extraordinary performances
ever placed before the public.

INCOME TAX-CIVIL SERVICE.

Mr. MACARTNEY asked the Chancellor of the
Exchequer if it was his intention to make any exception
with respect to the income tax chargeable upon the
salaries of the civil servants, who were subjected to a
charge of five per cent. in addition to the present income
tax (nearly 6 per cent.), making together about 11 por
centum levied on their limited incomes ; also, whether
he was prepared to state on what day he would lay on the
table of the house the proposed bill for altering and
amending the law respecting the Civil Service Super-
annuation Fund ?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the
Income-tax Bill affected all public officers, with certain
exceptions. Government were, not prepared to make
the exception indicated in the question of the hon. mem-
ber, as that could not be done to one part of the public
service, and not to others.
SALARIES OF COUNTY 'COURT JUDGES.

In reply to Mr. LowE,
Mr. WILSON said the Government, in respect of the
great duties some of the County Court judges had to
discharge, had decided on raising the salaries of some of
them to the maximum rate of 1,5001. a year.

DEMAND FOR SEAMEN.—The demand for seamen for
the outward bound vessels to the. St. Lawrence has been
so great that it could not be supplied by the Clyde ports,
and about 1011 seamen have been brought from Liver-
pool to man some of the ships. This will not be won-
&red at when it is known that the eminent firm of
Pollok, Gilmour, and Co. have despatched 17 vessels
from Port-Glasgow, with 25 to 34 men in each, within
the last week or two. The wages in Liverpool are gene-
rally lower than here, and the crews entered there are
either put on board their slips at the Tail of the Bank
by the steamer that brings them round, or are met here
by the little tug which conveys them on board their
several vessels, or to Port-Glasgow, as may be required.

ARRIVAL OF. MORTARS.

Great ntitnbers of mortars are' coming up' both-
for us and for the French, ancl this gives-additiopP4
weight to the opinion I before-told you was enter.
tained, by various, persons here—notably
,by some
of the French staff—that-it is intended ,to crush
the place under, a prodigious fire of mortars. There
can hardly be.a doubt , that these are the , most
effective weapons we can employ against Sebas-
topol. The vertical fire which Sir Howard
Douglas advocated finds partisans among,all prac-
tical men here. You may convert the huge earth-
works of the Russian batteries into masses 'of iron
by a. horizontal are, but for that theenenay will
care little.. It :is quite clear that his inner works,
and. not his outer ones, are what ho reckons on,
and only by a vertifical fire can we hope•to destroy
the former.
London, England, 1855-09-05

THE SOUTH SIDE OF SEBASTOPOL.

If, as we have some grounds for believing, the
Russian troops are already, considerably demora-
lised, the loss of the Malakhoff might so discourage
them as to throw the south side almost immediately
into our hands. Its capture and the destruction of
the ships would render a very large force—in itself
a powerful and numerous army—now employed in
the trenches disposable for operations elsewhere.
A portion of these troops might then, by the aid of
our fleet, be promptly conveyed to Eupatoria,
where we already have 20,000 of the best Turks.
Suppose we sent off 40,030 men—say 30,000 Eng-
lish and 10,000 Sardinians—leaving the French to
observe the north side of Sebastopol and keep the
enemy in check down here; we should thus form
an army, of between 50,000 and 60,000 effective sol-
diers, which would give an excellent account of any
Russian army attempting to retreat northwards.
This plan I know to be considered by officers of
high rank and great military knowledge and expe-
rience as perfectly feasible. We have abundance
of transport, plenty of cavalry could be sent, and
such a battle might be fought, such a victory ob
tained, as would eclipse the glories even of Alma
and of Inkerman ; for it is to be observed that
even those persons here who take the most de-
sponding view of the prospects of the siege are as
confident as men can be of our army driving before
it in the field even very superior forces of the
Russians. And really, when oue notes the ex-
cellent condition of the troops, and the cheerful,
gallant, and loyal spirit that animates them, one
cannot doubt that they would fulfil these high
expectations ; one can imagine no army, though
it were twice their number, withstanding
their onset, and one reflects with regret on
their being kept here all the summer knocking
their heads against stone walls, and against earth-
works that are worse, expending their energies in
the wearisome trench duty, and sighing in vain for
motion and action in the field. We have still two
months of good campaiging weather before us, and
we can only hope they will be employed in such n
way as to atone in some degree for the unprofitable
manner in which spring and summer have been
suffered to glide by.
London, England, 1855-09-05

THE CAPTIIRE OF THE MALAKHOFF.

Such a result would be less than what we have
a right to expect should the Russians risk a
general attack, and should .no greater be at-
tained the fault will be attributable to the dis-
positions taken. Such an attack, promptly and
vigorously met, ought to end in our wresting from
the foe some solid advantage, perhaps even in the
capture of the Malakhoff itself. Had we that, we
should quickly be masters of the Redan and the
Little Redan ; it might take a few days to vanquish
the resistance offered by the inner line of defence,
but the issue of the contest, as regards the south
side of Sebastopol, would no longer be doubtful.

with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the

_Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure. From the German
of Dr. PICKFORD. With an Introduction by the Editor, containing
a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued
by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are
credulous enough to seek their aid.
"‘ Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs es, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall ietect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his Sower to cor-
rect."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,'
9.nd ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could And its way into the hands of those who stiffer from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what Is of
less ImPortance, though it is that which the quacks most prize--
much money...... This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
