THE SOUTH WALES PORTS.—Iron shipbuilding is
gradually extending at the South Wales ports, and
several yards are already opened at Cardiff and Llanelly,
where iron i,essols are now in course of being built. Pre-
parations are also being made for opening an iron ship-
building establishment on the east bank of the Usk at
Newport, and an iron ship of 400 tons burden will first be
built, and as soon as this is completed another of a like
burden, and for the same trade, will be commenced. This
gradual extension of tho trade clearly indicates that before
many years are over the South Wales ports will compete
with the North of England in iron shipbuilding,

PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S HEALTH.

The President, though still in feeble health, is
annoyed by the pressure of importunate office
seekers.

A rebel flag, captured at Anderson by the One
Hundred and Fortieth Indiana Volunteers, was pre-
sented to-day by Governor Morton, in front of the
National Hotel. A large crowd was in attendance.
Governor Morton made a brief speech, in which he
congratulated- his auditors on the speedy end of the
rebellion, and concluded by introducing President
Lincoln, whose purity andpatriotism were confessed,
he said, by all, even among the most violent agita-
tors. (Applause.) His administration would be
recognised as the most important epoch of history.
It had struck the death blow to slavery—(applause)
—and built up the republic with a power it never
before possessed. If he had done nothing more
than put his name to the emancipation proclama-
tion, that alone would have made his name immor-
tal. (Applause.)
The President addressed the assembly substan-
tially as follows :

Fellow-citizens,—lt will be but a very few words
that I shall undertake to say. I was born in Ken-
tucky, raised in Indiana, and lived in Illinois.
(Laughter.) And now lam here, where it is my
business to care equally for the good people of all
the States. lam glad to see an Indiana regiment
on this day able to present the captured flag to the
Governor of Indiana. (Applause.) lam not dis-
posed, in saying this, to make a distinction between
the States, for all have done equally well. (Ap-
plause.) There are but few views )r aspects of this
great war upon which I have not said or written
something whereby my own opinions might be
known. But there is one—the recent attempt of
our erring brethren, as they are sometimes called—
(laughter)—to employ the negro to fight for them. I
have neither written nor made a speech on that subject,
because that was their business, not mine ; and if I had
a wish upon the subject I had notthe power to intro-
duce it, or make it effective. The great question
with them was, whether the negro, being put into
the army, would fight for them. I do not know and
therefore cannot decide. (Laughter.) They ought
to know better than we. I have in my lifetime
heard many arguments why the negroes ought to
be slaves, but if they fight for those who would
keep them in slavery it will be a better argument
than any I have yet heard. (Laughter and ap-
plause.) He who will fight for that ought to be a
slave. (Applause.) They have concluded at last
to take one out of four of the slaves, and put them
in the army ; and that one out of the four who will
fight to keep the others in slavery ought to be a slave
himself unless he is killed in a fight. (Applause.)
While I have often said that all men ought to be free,
yet I would allow those coloured persons to be slaves
who want to be ; and next to them those white person

the Foreign Treaty Powers. In the address to the
people, the Protector General informs them that the
Tartar dynasty must be displaced, and that the
empire of China must be governed by Chinese.
The people are informed in distinct terms that u°
violence will be offered to those who submit t°
Taeping rule ; that they will be protected and ea'
couraged to industrial and agricultural pursuits ;
that the payment of taxes will alone be insisted
upon ; and that, as there is nothing to complain of
in such conditions of submission, the people who tied
at the approach of the Taepings ought at once to
return to their dwellings and continue the
Pursuits
of peace. It is pointed out to them that the er°Ps,
are ready to be cut down, and that they are inviteu
to return and reap the fruits of their hushusband''otherwise they will be treated as offenders, and

liable to punishment.
The second notification issued by the Taeph3g
leader is addressed to the Treaty Powers. The Pro-
tector General deprecates all feelings of hostility
between his people and foreign Powers. He inti-
mates his intention of pushing his campaigns aver
the empire. He proposes terms of co-operation
with the Powers. These terms are a constant suPPII
of arms and ammunition to begin with. Then it ,
proposed that foreign nations shall commence a
career of conquest under the sanction and authority
of the Heavenly dynasty. The plan laid down is
that the Powers shall ravage the coasts ; seize what-
ever ports they choose, to become their own Pre.;
perty ; and retain for their own use all the spoil
they can lay their hands on. Furthermore, the
Taepings undertake to conduct operations in til

China and Japan.

The remnant of the Taepings, under their " Pre-
tector General," Shi Wong, who is said to be 3
brother of Chung Wong, the best leader in the
old army, have issued two notifications, one to
the people of the country, and another to
the Foreign Treaty Powers. In the address to the
people, the Protector General informs them that the

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS-Tim EVENING.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.
IMPERFECT VENTILATION IN MINES.

Lord KINNAIRD said that in moving a bill on this
subject, he would ask permission to depaxt from the
usual practice in introducing it, by making a few observa-
tions on the first reading. When a bill for the regulation
of mines was introduced into the House of Commons it was
limited to collieries, and no provision was made for the
health of those engaged in the metalleferous mines of the
United Kingdom. A royal commission was appointed in
1862, of which he was chairman, to inquire into this sub-
ject, and that commission had taken great pains in their
inquiry, and had succeed in obtaining very valuable infor-
mation. The inquiry disclosed a most fearful state of
matters in reference to the miners employed in the metal-
leferous miners, who mortality, it was ascectained, was
very much in excess of those employed in collieries.
That mortality was not attributable to working under
ground, because the men employed in collieries were a
most healthy class. The cause of the ill-health of
those engaged in working in the metal mines
arose from the fact that there had not been provision
made for the ventilation of these mines, which was ren-
dered imperative in coal mines in order to prevent explo-
sion, an apprehension of which does not exist in regard
to metal mines. Those employed in the latter mines
were subject to bronchitis, and other diseases, which in
most cases proved fatal, and a man of 50 of that class was
considered old. Every assistance had been afforded the
commissioners in prosecuting their inquiry, and it was
admitted by all acquainted with the subject that
legislation in reference to it was indispensably neces-
sary. He was aware that secret legislation would
bo attended with some difficulty, and mining interests were
of great importance. He did not consider the adoption of
the principle of local inspection would be attended with
advantage, because the interests of metallurgic mines
necessarily fluctuated, and at present mines were depressed
by the state of affairs in America, so that some suspi-
cion with regard to a local inspector making reports
that might operate injuriously on the interests of persons
possessing property in those mines. He considered that
the Board of Trade should have the power to deal with this
question ; and there was already a collateral agency in exist-
ence that would co-operate—the registry and inspection of
mines. He concluded by moving the first reading of a bill
for the inspection of metalliferous mines, and said he would
defer going into further detail until the second reading of
the bill. The bill was then read a first time.

THAMES.

FORGERY AND EMBEZZLEMENT.—CharIes Wren, late
town traveller to the firm of Moss, Levy, and Co., exten-
sive looking-glass manufacturers, upholsterers, and furni
ture-dealers, 45, Leman-street, Whitechapel, was brought
before Mr. Partridge, charged with embezzling goods, the
property of his employers, to the amount of £230, and also
with fraud, forgery, and larceny. _ _

Mr. L. Lewis, solicitor, Ely-place, conducted the prose-
cution; Mr. Josiah Merriman, of Bouverie-street, defended
the prisoner.
The case was a very complicated ono, and was explained
by Mr. L. Lewis. The prisoner had been in the service of
the prosecutors 12 months at a salary of 255. per week and
2i per cent. commission on all goods sold. The prisoner
went out with a van-load of goods daily, and he was bound
to enter in a book .every sale effected by him, and the names
of the purchasers. He entered the names of Edwards of
Hammersmith and Ward of Forest-hill, and he gave his
employers bills drawn by the firm and purporting to be
accepted by Edwards for £2l and by Ward for £25 in pay-
ment of the goods which he purported to have sold. The
bills when they had arrived at maturity were dishonoured.
It turned out there were no such persons as Edwards and
Ward, but that the prisoner had opened a shop at Forest-
hill, and put the name of Ward over it, and to this place he
removed goods of his employers, which he said he had sold.
He finally absconded, and was captured at Norwich yester-
day by Dunaway, a detective officer, No. 11 H. A great
many looking-glasses and toilet-glasses belonging to Moss,
Levy, and Co., were found in a house in Norwich. They
had all been covered by acceptances of Edwards and Ward
to the draft of the prosecutors. Tho bills were in the
handwriting of the prosecutors' clerk, Mr. Glover, but all
the acceptances were in the prisoner's handwriting.
Mr. Hyam Levy, one of the prosecutors, produced a num-
ber of fictitious bills issued by the prisoner, and purporting
to be signed by Edwards and Ward. They had all been
dishonoured.

After a long investigation the prisoner was remanded for
a week.

Lord and Lady Russell's dinner party this even-
ing is unavoidably postponed.
