-WHY THE EMPRESS ASSURED HER LIFE.—
It is quite true, as of late stated in the newspapers,
that her Imperial Majesty has recently assured her life iu
live English (aces for £BO,OOO, involving an annual charge
in premiums of about £2,500; but the meritorious purpose
of the act has yet to be stated. It is well known that tho
Empress was the foundress, and is, at this hour, the
sole supporter of the following noble charitable insti-
tutions :—" Maison Eugenio Napoleon," "Prets do l'En-
lance au Travail," (better known as" Socit3te du Prince
Imperial,") and the " Caisse do Seeours pour l'Arnage do
Terre et de Mer." The Empress is very naturally appre;
hensive I hat these good works may materially suffer when•
ever death—that black camel, as the Arabs finely put it,
which kneels at every man's gate—may call her hence,
and, therefore, she has thus sought, through the in-
strumentality of life assurance, to permanently endow
them. The Empress has named the Prince Imperial
as her almoner, and at her demise it would become
his sacred duty to administer the large fund thus created,
and to take these merciful bodies under his fostering care.
It it is said that the Empress has also effected assurances
for the same good end with several Belgian and German
offices. On account of the greater risk to which the life of
the Empress is reckoned to be exposed as compared with
with ordinary mortals—witness, for instance, the late
horiible plot to assassinate the Emperor--increased rates of
premium have been charged by the contracting ojicc 1—

THE NEW FRENCH CARDINAL,

The ceremony of conferring the Cardinal's hat
upon Monseigneur Bonnechose took place yester•
day. The Cardinal having addressed the Emperor.
his Majesty replied ac follows :

" I have reason to say that honours are heavy
burdens imposed upon us by Providence, which in-
creases duties in proportion to rank. I often ask
myself, therefore, if good i 8 not as great a tribula-
tion as ill fortune. But our guide and support
is religious faith coupled with political faith,
confidence in God, and confidence in a mission
to accomplish. You may be astonished, as I am,
, to see at so short an interval men, hardly escaped
from shipwreck, again call winds and tempests
to their assistance, God protects France
too visibly to permit the spirit of evil to once more
call forth agitation. The scope of our Constitution
is widely marked out. Every honest man can feel
himself at ease within its bounds. Nearly every
one can have the opportunity of expressing his ideas
of controlling the acts of the Government, and of
taking an equitable part in public affairs. Exclu-
sion no longer exists. The clergy are not only at
liberty to occupy themselves wth religious ques-
tions, but eminent chiefs still find legitimate place
in the highest body of the State, into which you
will bring a spirit of conciNatton, which does not
separate the cause of religion from that of country ;
a spirit of tolerance, which attracts and persuades,
and a love of country, which serves to draw closer
those separated by difference of opinion."

A Most Sensible Suggestion.

In regard to the National Shakespeare Committee,
if Mr. Charles Dickens (who is one of the Vice-
Presidents) were to come prominently forward and
put himself at the head of this movement, the details
might safely be left to Messrs. Marston, Bell, Tom-
lins, Godwin, and other very competent gentlemen
upon the acting committee. These men are not
likely, if they undertake to do the work themselves,
to be guilty of such blunders as Mr, Dixon's draft
report. But this, if the credit of the movement is to
be saved, must be done at once. Efficiency must
come to the front rank,and inefficiency must fall back
some time before the expiration of the present month,
or the public will lose all faith in the movement.
It is idle to suppose that the Prince of Wales will
allow his name to be connected with the matter
until it has assumed a far better position than it oc-
cupies at present. There is something ominous
in that silence which the Times has hitherto pre-
served towards the business, which betokens any-
thing but good ; and Punch (usually a very fair
barometer of the temper, both of the times and the
Times) has opened fire this week with an exceed-
ingly humorous and—we fear—too close parody, of
the late meetings of the committee. It is impossible
to avoid recognising the identity of Messrs. Chick,
D'Hummy, Spluff, and Wickins. And the worst
of the matter is that (thanks to the mismanagement
of its half•elected leaders) the National Shake-
spearean Committee is in anything but a state to
encounter either criticism or ridicule. —From the

KILLING NO MURDER,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BUN.
SIR,—In my communication of Tuesday last I pointed
out the startling and unintelligible fact that there is actually
a modern statute made in England in the year 1840. the
main object of which is to enable a couple of country ma-
gistrates, aided by a couple of country doctors, to reverse,
of their own authority, the verdict of a jury and the sen-
tence of a judge in a case of murder; to dictate to the
Sovereign and Government of the country how they shall
act in the premises ; to exempt a deliberate wilful murderer•
from the penalty of his guilt, and thus to imperil the life of
every man, woman, and child in the country. The late
Joseph Hume once exclaimed, " Thank God we have a
House of Lords I" The Lords of old exclaimed on a me•
morable occasion, " We will not alter the law of England!"
Where were the Lords in 1840, and what were they think-
ing of not to meet this monstrous Act with the solemn pro-
test of "Leger Anglise nolumus mutari ?" To give immu-
nity to murderers is notoriously to hold out a bounty and
a temptation to commit the crime of murder. The corres-
pondence between the Home-office and the judge who
tried Townley brings out this defect in the law with
astounding clearness. For it seems these country justices,
of the class who have become famous for the invention of
"justice's justice," with a couple of country medical prac-
titioners, have not only set aside the verdict of the jury and
the sentence of the judge, and dictated to the Government
and the Crown, but have virtually extinguished Lunacy
Commissioners. The Commissioners consider that the
prisoner, George Victor Townley, " was justly convicted."
They also consider that "he continues now in the same
mental state as when he committed the murder and under-
went his trial." But directly the two justices and the two
doctors give their certificate under this monstrous act of
1840, away goes the verdict of the jury, with the sentence
of the judge, and the report of the Lunacy Commissioners.
The judgment of the Sovereign, the Home Secretary, and
their legal advisers, are all null and void in the presence of
this august and self-constituted tribunal, consisting of la
belle alliance of a brace of country magistrates with a brace
of country doctors, " Oh, reform it altogether I" says

STATE OF TRADE,

BRADFORD, Jan. 14.—There is very little wool
changing hands today. Though the price of cotton
is drooping, the quotations for wool remain exceed-
ingly firm, with a slight tendency upward. There
is a steady business doing in worsted yarns. Prices
are rather easier. Orders are running out ; but
there is a considerable new business doing for the
home trade, a great number of small orders being
placed by merchants. The foreign merchants are
doing little or nothing, the Holstein question being
still an obstacle to business. In pieces there is a
good business doing at very arm prices. The home
houses are doing an active business in Winceys.
There is a large business doing for America, both in
Italian cloths and coburgs. The fancy makers are
so busy that they decline many orders offered.
LEICESTER, 1311a.—The hasiery trade continues
quiet, and there has not been much doing in any
department during the week. Business, however,
is always dull at this time cf the year. There are
no stocks of any kinds of goads on hand. The wool
market is quiet, but high prices are yet quoted,
with no aupearance of a decline. Yarns maintai❑
very high rates, and spinners are restricting their
productions to the actual demand.
NOTTINGHAM, 13th.—Tte lace trade continues
dull, and there has not been much doing daring the
past few days in cotton goods. Thera are a few
orders in the market for plan stiff nets, as also for
Mechlin quillings. The fancy trade remains quiet.
There is rather more doing n black siik laces and
edging, and more is expected to be done in those
articles shortly. The demand for silk Mechlins and
silk quillings is without charge. Stocks of both
silk and cotton goods are very low. In hosiery
there is not much alteration. A fair amount of
business has been done in some branches, and busi-
ness generally is healthy. Yarns arc firm, and have
an upward tendency.

LONDON, FRIDAY, JAN. 15, 1864.

Excepting, of course, as it usually happens, the
parties most nearly concerned in the affair, there
must be a very general concurrence of opinion in
Mr. FREDERICK PEEL'S observation respecting the
American war, when addressing his constituents
last Wednesday, he remarked that " to a bystander
it would appear that that dreadful war must have
created a gulf between the Northern and the
Southern people more impassable than the widest
seas or the loftiest mountain barriers by which
Nature ever separated one people from another, and
that the alternative of the war must be subjugation
or separation." As regards the truth of this
opinion there can be little question. Union is at an
end, and for ever. No frttare amalgamation of
interests or opinions is in any way possible, and
the subjugation of either side is, considering their
antecedents, their spirit, and their inherent deter-
mination of character, equally unlikely. The war
may be persevered in with a cruel persistency till
the best blood of the entire nation is poured forth
like water, but with the progress of time, and the
expenditure of men and treasure, reconciliation, as
a painful experience fully demonstrates, becomes
not nearer at hand, but further off than ever.
What will be the result of the painful difficulty ?
Will the good sense of the leaders of either side at
length avail to arrest the fratricidal strfe ? Alas,
in the din of battle, and the fierce conflict of violent
emotions, the still small voice of truth and justice
cannot make itself heard. Will not some friendly
arbitration, even now at the eleventh hour,
interfere to put a stop to this internecine
struggle ? Were the war one foe the abolition
of slavery, which it is not, even that im-
portant benefit, as Mr. PEEL justly remarked,
might be purchased too dearly. Even the
sacred rights of liberty could hardly sanc-
tion so much outpouring of the blood
of friends and fellow citizens, still less
then is that dreadful antagonism justified by the
fanatical adherence to the fancied rights of unity.
Unity between the North and South is at an end
for ever. They may hereafter be better friends, and
emulate each other in the career of mutual advance-
ment, but, as Mr. PEEL truly observes, they aro
henceforth divided by barriers "more impassable
than the loftiest mountains, or the widest seas."

M. BISMARKS fortunes seem going from bad to
worse, each fresh intelligence appears to communi-
cate some fresh disaster, or some.aggrsvated annoy-
ance. The Chamber of Deputies are fulfilling their
promise of contending to the utmost of their power
against the Ministerial innovations, and their last
exploit in this line is worthy of notice. They have
jest taken into consideration the Gc,vcrnuicnt pro-
posal for the Military Budget. The sum demanded
was 5,500,000 thalers, a very large majority re-
jected the Ministerial project. This must have been
'very disheartening to the Cabinet, fOowing as it

Murder and Suicide at Ipswich.

Yesterday morning a jobbing shoemaker, named
Jamea Gooding, who lived in a narrow back street,
called Albert-street, in the parish of St. Clement,
Ipswich—one of the poorest parts of the town—
murdered one of his children and then cut his own
throat. It appears that at about half-past eight in
the morning Gooding's next door neighbour, named
Norfolk, was alarmed by hearing Gooding's wife
scream out, and on running to his door she cried
out to him, "For God's sake, Mr. Norfolk, come
in—my husband has killed himself and the dear
child." Norfolk ran up-stairs, and found
the bodies of Gooding and his little daugh-
ter Elizabeth, about six years of age, lying
on the floor weltering i❑ their blood, which
flowed from wounds in the throat of each. Although
scarcely more than a minute could have elapsed
since the commission of the act, both father and
daughter appeared dead, and Mr. W. Adam, jun.,
surgeon, who was almost immediately on the spot,
found life to be quite extinct. At the knee of the
father lay a shoemaker's knife, covered with blood,
and evidently the instrument which had been used.
The unhappy father appears to have first cut the
throat of his child, who was completely a cripple,
having the use of neither arms nor legs, and was
besides imbecile and unable to speak, and then to
have inflicted a frightful gash in his own, com-
mencing under the left ear and extending across the
throat, severing all the muscles down to the ver-

telm to, An inquest was held upon the bodies in the
afternoon by Mr. S. B. Jackaman, the coroner for

the borough, at which evidence was given which
went to show that the deceased man bad for years
been in an indifferent state of health, and that
since September last year, when he lost three chil-
dren in one week of diphtheria, he has been in a
desponding state of mind, He was a remarkably
well-informed man for his position in life, and up
to that time he had been a very sober man, but
latterly had indulged a good deal in drink ; he
always, however, spoke of the deceased child in
terms of the greatest affection, and said he only

lived for her. One of the witnesses said when
Gooding gave way to drink he was unable to eat,
and that during the last fortnight he had eaten next
to nothing. The jury thought it desirable that the
widow of the deceased should be examined, and the
inquiry was adjourned till to-day in order that the
poor woman might have time to become somewhat
composed, she being at present in so distracted a
state that it would be impossible to examine her.

KILLING NO MURDER,

TO THE EDITOR OP THE SUN.
SIR,—In my communication of Tuesday last I pointed
out the startling and unintelligible fact that there is actually
a modern statute made in England in the year 1840. the
main object of which is to enable a couple of country ma-
gistrates, aided by a couple of country doctors, to reverse,
of their own authority, the verdict of a jury and the sen-
tence of a judge in a case of murder; to dictate to the
Sovereign and Government of the country how they shall
act in the premises ; to exempt a deliberate wilful murderer
from the penalty of his guilt, and thus to imperil the life of
every man, woman, and child in the country. The late
Joseph Hume once exclaimed, " Thank God we have a
House of Lords I" The Lords of old exclaimed on a me•
morable occasion, " We will not alter the law of England I"
Where were the Lords in 1840, and what were they think-
ing of not to meet this monstrous Act with the solemn pro-
test of " Leges Anglia nulumus mutari ?" To give immu-
nity to murderers is notoriously to hold out a bounty and
a temptation to commit the crime of murder. The corres-
pondence between the Home-office and the judge who
tried Townley brings out this defect in the law with
astounding clearness. For it seems these country justices,
of the class who have become famous for the invention of
"justice's justice," with a couple of country medical prac-
titioners, have not only set aside the verdict of the jury and
the sentence of the judge, and dictated to the Government
and the Crown, but have virtually extinguished Lunacy
Commissioners. Tho Commissioners consider that the
prisoner, George Victor Townley, " was justly convicted."
They also consider that "he continues now in the same
mental state as when he committed the murder and under-
went his trial." But directly the two justices and the two
doctors give their certificate under this monstrous act of
1840, away goes the verdict of the jury, with the sentence
of the judge, and the report of the Lunacy Commissioners.
The judgment of the Sovereign, the Hume Secretary, and
their legal advisers, are all null and void in the presence of
this august and self-constituted .tribunal, consisting of la
belle alliance of a brac3 of country magistrates with a brace
of ecuptry doctors. "Oh, reform it altogether I" says
COXIMi 4rts.
