LONDON, JNE 20,
MONDAY,U
- 1864.

The Government on Friday evening sustained one
of the severest shocks that have yet assailed its tot-
tering strength. It is true that they escaped a re-
petition of those defeats which have been growing
lately by no means uncommon, and that the divi-
sion which closed a lengthened debate resulted in
their favour, But the victory was like that of
PYRRHUS, scarcely less damaging than a repulse,
and in fact a majority of seven in a house of four
hundred and fifty-nine members is a virtual defeat.
The real blow to the Cabinet, however, was not the
alarming amount of the minority, or the narrow
escape of a vote of censure, circumstances suffi-
ciently ominous in themselves to produce a strong
manifestation of party feeling on the doelaration
of the numbers; the real danger to the Govern-
ment was in the debate which preceded the divi-
Con , and in the startling disclosures which it elicited,
and whose effect no counter charges, however reck-
less, no official ingenuity, however skilful, could
avail to mitigate. The Government stand con-
victed, unless they can bring forward a much more
satisfactory defence than any they have as yet made,
individually or collectively, of having rashly ex-
posed the lives of our troops to needless danger, of
having hastily
entered into a war which was likely
to bring us nothing but loss and discredit, of having
entirely neglected those precautions for the health
end accommodation of the men which the most o -

?ammo It seems that while proclaiming cur love
of peace with a fervour and a pertinacity that
make mg the laughing-stuck of tLe civilised
world, we are engaged in half a dozen wars
in outlandish quarters while essrcely know-
ing it. Certainly, as Sir SOHN HAY remarked,
is was not until very recently generally known that
we were at war with the King of ASHANTEE, and
we might almost quote the hacknied lines which
tells us that 'tie folly to ba wise in some cases, since
a more melancholy and humiliating record of human

Kearsage :

" Sunday, June 19, 9 a.m.—Got up steam and
proceeded out of Cherbourg harbour.

" 10 30.—Observedtthe Alabama steaming out of
the harbour towards the Federal steamer Kearsage.
" 11 10..—The Alabama commenced firing with
her starboard battery, the distance besween the
contending vessels being about one mile. The
Kearsage immediately replied with her starboard
guns; a very sharp, spirited firing was then takes
up, shot sometimes being varied by shells. In
manceavring both vessels made seven complete
circles at a distance of from a quarter to half a
mile.

At 12 a slight intermission was observed in the
Alabama's firing, the Alabama making head sail,
and shaping her course for the land, distant about

nine miles.

"At 12.30 observed the Alabama to be disabled
and in a sinking state. We immediately made to-
wards her, and on passing the Kearsage were re•
quested to assist in saving the Alabama's crew.

" At 12,50, when within a distance of 200 yards,
the Alabama sunk. We then lowered our two
boats, and, with the assistance of the Alabama's
whale boat and dingy, succeeded in saving about 40
men, including Captain Semmes and 13 officers. At
1 p.m. we steered for Southampton."
I may state that, before leaving, the Kearsage
was apparently much disabled. The Alabama's
loss, so far as at present ascertained, in killed and
wounded, &c., was as follows—viz., one officer and
one man drowned, big men killed, and one officer
and 16 men wounded. Captain Semmes received a
slight wound in the right hand,

The Kearsage's boats were, after some delay,
lowered, and, with the assistance of a French pilot
boat, succeeded in picking up the remaining sur-

vivore.

PARIS, JUNE 20.

The Ilioniteur of this morning gives the follow-
ing accouut of the destruction of the Alabama. The
Alabama left the port of Cherbourg at 11.30 a.m.
The engagement with the Kcarsage commenced at
noon, when a violent cannonade was heard. The
Alabama, being pursued by the Kearsage, made
all her speed to reach Cherbourg, but shortly after
one o'c ock she sunk.

THE GLADIATOR.

Sir J. ELPHINSTONE asked whether the Gladiator
was still under orders to go to Cape Ccast Castle. He was
of opinion that the ship could not convey 500 with safety ?
Lord C. PAGET said the War-office had made ar-
rangements by which 700 men would be romoved-500
would go by the West Indies, and 200 to Lagos, and
thence to Sierra Leone. The Gladiator would go twice to
Cape Coast Castle.

As less a poet than a happy bird,
Singing because I must snag as the linnet,
Unthinking by what ears my song is heard."

Some of her fanciful images are felicitous, as when
the speaks of the leaves and flowers wakened in the
early morning by the "mother kits of dawn." One
little poem, " The Children's Future," is very hap-
pily conceived and very ingeniously carried out—
the moral lesson of life—
" Here is love His to be trusted,
Yonder to be understood,"
receives in these simple verses a very appropriate
and charming illustration.

Day Dreams of a Schoolmaster. By D'Arey W.
Thompson. One Vol. pp. 328. Eamonston and
Douglas.
In a kindred spirit to that in which Childe
Harold detested Horace as associated with the
reminiscences of the Latin grammar—
ig The dull task that daily turned
My sickening memory,"
—in a kindred spirit does the Schoolmaster before
us express his disapproval of the ordinary
forcing, mechanical, and incomprehensible system
of modern education. Pitifully does he dilate
upon the sorrows of his early experiences, when,
at the age of seven and a half he entered as a pupil
on the under form at St. Edmund's.

FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE

DESTRITMON OF THE " ALABAMA."
SOUTHAMPTON; JUNE 20.
From further particulars received here of yester-
day's engagement it appears that Capt. Semmes
accepted the challenge cf the Kearsage to fight,
although aware that his adversary carried 50 more

men than his own vessel, and was a larger ship
with heavier guns. Capt. Semmes was not, how-
ever, aware the Koarsage was chain-plated under
her outside planking.
Shortly after the action commenced a shot from
the Kearsage killed three men on board the Ala-
bama, cutting them to pieces, and a second shot
wounded three more men and killed another;
while a third shot carried away the blade of the
Alabama's fan and part of the rudder on her deck,
disabling a gun and causing much damage. Below
and forward her compartments were all carried
away, and the fire-room was filled with water.

The Alabama fought under sail, first using her
starboard battery, and afterwards her port battery.
Sae continued the engagement until the muzzles of
her guns were under water, and one part of her
deck was covered with dead and wounded.

MARK-LANE.

The country markets held on Saturday were firm for
wheat, and selected parcels changed hands at an advance
in price of is per quarter. For spring corn there was a
moderate demand at fully late rates. The flour trade was
steady on former terms.

At New York a moderate business was done in prime
red spring wheat for export to Great Britain, at further en-
hanced rates. On the continent the trade :generally is

steady.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were small. The imports from abroad amounted to 6,596
quarters of wheat, 4,660 barley, 25,811 oats, 2SO beans,
1,605 peas, 257 tares, 6,510 linseed, 6,850 oil-seeds, 10
sundry seeds, and 175 sacks and 9,218 barrels of flour.

FOURTH EDITION.—This day, at every Library, in 3 vols.,
HENR Y DUNBAR.
Three Editions of this most popular Novel have been
exhausted in less than Three Weeks. The Fourth Edition
was ready on June 1. Beyond all question, the New Novel,

MARK-LANE.

The country markets held on Saturday were firm for
wheat, and selected parcels changed hands at an advance
in price of is per quarter. For spring corn there was a
moderate demand at fully late rates. The flour trade was
steady on former terms.

At New York a moderate business was done in prime
red spring wheat for export to Great Britain, at further en-
hanced rates. On the continent the trade :generally is
steady.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were small. The imports from abroad amounted to 6,596
quarters of wheat, 4,660 barley, 25,811 oats, 280 beans,
1,605 peas, 257 tares, 6,510 linseed, 6,650 oil-seeds, 10
sundry seeds, and 175 sacks and 9,218 barrels of flour.

LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE.

A Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held on
Saturday, at Manchester; Mr G. A. Wilson in the chair.
The object of the meeting was to approve the Blackburn,
Chorley, Horwich, and Wigan Railway Bill now before
Parliament. The heads of the bill, read by Mr Grundy,
solicitor to the company, showed that the line would cost
£210,000.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the approval of the bill, said
that after a very long contest in Parliament the directors
had succeeded in obtaining the line from Blackburn to Chor-
ley, and through Hird Hindley to Norwich. Their oppo•
nents—the Lancashire Union Company—had had powers
given them to be joint owners of the line to Blackburn, while
the Lancashire and Yorkshire Company might join them in
a line from Standish to Adlington. Substantially the Lon-
don and North Western Company would bring through this
line at Blackburn, and of course this decision was very nu_
satisfactory to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Board, who
were now in communication with the London and North
Western Company to ascertain if more sati• factory arrange.
meats could be made. Their opponents could not be said to
have fared very well in this contest, for they had promoted
lines—first from Blackburn to Chorley 9i miles, Chorley to
Standish CI miles, Standish to Hindley 31 miles, Hindley
to St. ilelaetn'ststB.
Helen'smiles
miles, a
1b rmanilceh,
making a total of nearly 30 lino near Adlington 1 mile,
a branch
miles. But they had only succeeded in obtaining 8 miles
in their integrity, and jointly with the Lancashire and York-
shire Company 10 miles; while the line had been shortened
from St. Helen's to the junction of the London and North-
Western Railway at Hilsbury.
The resolution having been seconded by Mr. DUGDEN,
was carried unanimously.
The CHAIRMAN Bali they had running powers given them
to St. Helen's with the use of the stations and branches,
and those powers improved their position considerably, the
London and North-Western becoming the lessees of the line,
The proceedings then terminated.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on
sale in our market to-day ; but its general quality was only
middling. Sales progressed slowly at barely late rates.
Fresh up from our own grazing districts the receipts of
beasts were seasonably extensive, and the general quality
was prime. The arrivals from Scotland were large, vic,
129 from Aberdeen, and 622 from Forfarshire, Fifeshire,
and East Lothian. For the most part they were unusually
firmer. Although the attendance of buyers was numerous,
the beef trade was in a sluggish state at about last week's
currency. A few vary superior Scots and crosses realised
48 10d; but the general top figure for beef was 4s 8d
per Ms.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 2,200 Scots, short horns and crosses; from other
parts of England, 700 various breeds; from Scotland, 751
Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 80 oxen and heifers.
We were seasonably well supplied with beasts, both as
to number and quality. Prime Downs and half-breds
changed hands at full currencies; otherwise, the mutton
trade was heavy; and in some instances the quotations had
a drooping tendency. The top figure was 5s 2d per 81bs.
Good and prime lambs moved off freely at full prices
Inferior lambs were dull, but Hot cheaper.

Calves were in moderate supply, and sluggish request,

at late rates.

LITERATURE.

Maude Talbot. By Holme Lee. With Five Illus.
tra-tions. New edition. One vol. pp, 405.
Smith, Elder, and Co.

The new volume of Messrs. Smith and Elder's
illustrated editions of popular works contains a
re-issue of Holm° Lee's very charming story of
" Maude Talbot," a very happy selection, for the
history of tne ambitious Maude and the gentle
Lettico is full of interest and instruction. In the
frontispiece, the fair heroine is seen deep in a
momentous reverie, discussing the rival claims of
Lova and Ambition. The poet has told us how
when

" Lovo took up the glass of Time and turned it in his
glowing hands,
E very moment, lightly shaken ran itself in golden sands,"
Maude Talbot makes a different selection, and the
golden sunshine is banished from her life. The
story is one of the best from Holme Lee's prolific
pen.

lhoughts from a Girls Life. By Lucy Fletcher,

One vol. pp. 162. INLemiliun and Co.

" These verses," says the writer, "are the true
expressions of the thoughts and feelings of a girl's
life, and as such they are given specially to other
girls." The little poems thus introduced justify
their author's comment. They are eminently
thoughtful and suggestive of thought. They do not
evince any great poetical merit, but are remarkable
for their simplicity and earnestness. In one little
poem, entitled " Singing," the fair authoress ex-
claims, and evidently with truth—

St, Paul's School,

The annual "apposition," which took place for the 355th
time, was rendered more than ordinarily brilliant yesterday
by the presence of the Prince of Wales. The schoolroom
in which the speeches were delivered was decorated with
unusual magnificence, a colossal plume of the Prince of
Wales's feathers being placed in front of the gallery facing
the platform, and a costly chair adorned with the initials
A. E., and the City arms, having been provided for the
royal visitor. Long before the commencement of the day's
business all the seats were occupied by a distinguished
assemblage, among whom were the Archbishops of York
and Armagh, the Bishops of London, Oxford, Lichfield,
Llandaff, and Down, Lord Ellenborougb, Lyttehon, and
Truro, and Chief Baron Pollock.

The Prince, who had partaken of a magnificent luncheon
in the house of the High Master, Dr Kynaston, entered the
schoolroom at about half-past 2, when the following pro-
gramme was gone through in due older:—

TEETH.—Mr. ESK ELL'S INVENTION in
the construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH has the
following advantages :—A set of teeth, of excellent work-
manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted with the
most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without
pain or extraction of stumps, and to answer all the purposes
of mastication and articulation. They are fitted without
wires or fastenings, and adapt themselves so perfectly to the
gums, that they are quite immoveable, except at the option
of the wearer. Invalids or residents in the country can ad-
just these teeth to many changes of the mouth without the
aid of a dentist. They are not so liable to injury, are always
useful, and will last a lifetime. Comfort guaranteed. Trea-
tise explaining Mr. Eskall's Patent, &c., free for 7 stamps.
