THE CLIPPER-SHIP MARCO POLO.

Messrs. Baines and Co., the owners of this fine ship,
have received from her captain the following gratifying
letter, detailing the condition of the passengers, and
the progress the vessel had made up to the date of
writing :

" On board the Marco Polo, April 8, 1853,
Lat. 1.30 N., long. 20A W.
• " Dear Sir,—We have got so far on towards our des-
tination. We have had nothing but calms and adverse
winds since we left Liverpool. I was four days in
Channel ; and from 5 N. to 2 N. I have had six days
nothing but calms and light airs from southward. All
our passengers are well, and in high spirits. We have
boarded several vessels from London with passengers ;
but my passengers say they would rather be on board
the Marco Polo than any of them. My passage will be
made when I get south of the line, which I expect Rill
be to-morrow,* when I will get wind, which I have not
had north of the line. We have had one death, a child
seven months old, and one birth which makesl ,our
number good. I have got about thirty of the expertest
thieves on board from London, and, what is worse, -two
or three of them in the first cabin. I will only add I
have not had one word of complaint against the ship,
provisions, master, or officers, which is a great thing to
say ; and they are all going to write home to their
friends to come out in your new ship. Last voyage we
had 20 deaths before those number of days out ; but
then we were under Government orders. The jib made j
by Messrs. Dixon and Co. is the finest cut sail and
standing one I ever saw.
" J. Baines, Esq. " JAMES FORBES."

* The Marco Polo, on her previous voyage, sailed c.n
the 4th of July, and crossed the line on the 4th of
August, tieing 30 days. On the present voyage ihe
would cross the line in 26 days.

" OF CAVALRY.

"10. The cavalry has usually encamped in open co-
lumn of troops, but with the alternate troops closed and
encamped back to back, as shown in plan 4.
" In this case, as with the infantry, the leading troop
should encamp on the prolongation of its own front in
column in order to leave a sufficient interval between
contiguous regiments, and thus admit of the free pas-
sage of troops through the lines.
" 11. The front computed for a mounted troop-horse
in the ranks is one yard, and when picketed four feet,
and the front and depth of encampments are computed
accordingly, allowinc, quarter intervals in the front be-
tween squadrons, and a similar distance between conti-
nuous regiments in brigade. Thus the actual interval
between the encampments of contiguous regiments equals
the front of a troop and a half.
"12. The encampment of a cavalry regiment on the
war establishment of four squadrons each, of 160 horses,
is shown in plan 4, 12 cavalry soldiers being the propor•
tion established for each tent. _

"13. But with the present reduced establishment of
regiments this mode of encampment could not be conve-
niently carried out ; the front covered by a regiment oc-
cupying too small a space for encampment in column of
troops.
- - -

"-The most convenient mode therefore of encamping
a regiment of cavalry of the present establishment of
271 horses will probably prove to be in column of squad-
rons, as shown in plan 5.
" 14. Cavalry encampments do not admit of so great
an amount of compression as those of infantry, as the
cavalry horse must have four feet, or three feet and
a-half, at least, allotted to him at the pickets ; but with
a strong regiment the front may be reduced by lessening
the troop or squadron distances.

that they deserved promotion, there would be no diffi-
culty in the matter.
The English Admiralty showed in 1851 how questions
of this nature, and even much more difficult ones, can
be resolved.

But if, on the contrary, the particular object is to
accelerate the promotion of captains, and for that pur-
pose rear and vice-admirals are to be raised from the list
three years sooner, and thus prevented from rendering
to their country the most important and perhaps the
most glorious services, then opinion becomes divided in
a most marked manner, and we think we may say that
men who know best what a naval life is will energetically
oppose the system of the proposed bill.
The report then enters at considerable length into a
statistical statement of the changes in promotion in the
navy dering the last ten years, comparing it with the
scale of promotion in the English navy. It then gives a
list of admirals of seventy years and upwards who rem
dered great services to their respective countries.
The report concludes as follows :
The project of law tending to modify the law of 17th
of June, 1841, relative to the naval staff, submitted to
the Senate, would, if adopted, be detrimental (funeste)
to the marine service both present and future.
It is illegal. It is an infringement on one of the great
interests placed by the Constitution under the protection
of the Senate.

The commission is of opinion—
That the Senate should oppose its promulgation.
The following is the project of law :
Art. 1. Vice-admirals at the age of 65 years accom-
plished, and rear-admirals at 62 years accomplished, who
cease to belong to the first section of the cadre of the
general-staff-major, to pass into the second.
Art. 2. No one can be promoted to the grade of vice-
admiral without having served for two years at sea,
with the rank of rear-admiral, in a squadron or naval
division.

Art. 3. Are maintained the dispositions of the laws
of April 20, 1832, and June 17, 1841, which are not con-
trary to the present law.

GERMANY.

A letter from Baden, of the 18th, says :i--
" Friendly hands had planted crosses over the
tombs of the persons who, in 1849, fell in the
various combats, and in particular over the tombs
of the insurgents buried in the cemetery of Heidel-
berg. On these tombs there was also placed an
epitaph, exceedingly simple and inoffensive—viz.,
`He died for the liberty of his country.' The
regime of the Prussian occupation, though noted
for its severity, had seen nothing to blame in the
sentiment of piety which dictated this tribute of
respect. Th© police of Heidelberg had just had
the crosses and tombs painted black, which has
effaced the epitaphs which they bore. An order
has also been issued, declaring that for the future
every epitaph must receive the authorisation of
the police before being put up."
Baron Berner, late Bishop of Varadin, in Hun-
gary, who took some part in the revolution of that
country, arrived at Neustift, Tyrol, on the Bth,
under the charge of a commissary of police, that
place having been assigned to him for his residence.
A letter from Berlin states, that the canon
Foerster has been definitively elected Prince Arch-
bishop of Breslaw.

The Minister of Commerce of Prussia, M. Von
der Heydt, has given orders to have the railway
from Konigsberg to Brauxsberg, that is, all the
Eastern line, opened at once to the public.
The Cologne Gazette, under date of Frankfort
20th, says :—" The Senate has proposed to the
Legislative Assembly an organic law to regu-
late the rights of the Jews. According to its
provisions, the Jews will be electors and eli-
gible in such a manner that they may have
four deputies in the Legislative Assembly,
but these four deputies cannot vote for the
election of senators. As to public dignities and
employments, the Jews cannot form part either of
the Senate, or of the College of the 51, or be judges
or exercise any public functions in the administra-
tion of the schools and of the Christian churches.
The Assembly has named a committee of seven
members to examine a report on the bill."
The Augsburg Gazette contains a letter from
Vienna of the 18th, which says—" The rumour
which was in circulation, that the GovernmeM de-
sired to contract a new loan in foreign countries,
gains ground. It is believed that this loan will be
applied to the regularisation of our securities, and
that consequently it will be considerable."
The Augsburg Gazette states from Constantinople
—" We learn that the second capital point of the
mission of Prince Menschikoff, after the question
of the Holy Places, is the demand of a cession of
territory near the Caucasus. The place in question
is the port of Baltoun. If Russia were to obtain
this port, the line of defence of the inhabitants of the
Caucasus might be attacked in the rear, and this
port might also serve as a basis for ulterior opera-
tions against Turkey in Asia and against Persia."

NEW ZEALAND COMPANY,

Mr. BAILLIE wished to ask the noble lord the mem-
ber for the city of London if it was the intention of the
Government to introduce a bill to deprive the New
Zealand Company of certain moneys which the British
Parliament had been induced to vote to them upon false
representations.

Lord J. RUSSELL replied in the negative.
Mr. MANGLES and Mr. AGLIONBY repelled the impu-
tation of fraud, and declared that if an opportunity were
afforded for discussion, they should b prepared to prove
that the New Zealand Company were justly entitled to
the money.

The harvest was plentiful, but the labourers few.
Though 355. an acre was the price for cutting,

A letter from Geelong, of the 17th February,
says the bidding at the Government land sale on
the 16th was spirited, and the prices realised were
as high as on any former occasion. Unseasonable
weather bad prevailed during the previous week.
The South Australian Register, of the 7th, states
that,

"Although there is at the diggings everything to in-
dicate gold in large quantities, none have succeeded in
realising their hopes. The majority content themselves
with what they can get on Chapman's hill and gully,
knowing that, if a fresh place is discovered, they will
stand as good a chance as those who have spent months
in trying to find better ground. The quantity of gold
taken to the Assay-office having, during four consecutive
weeks, amounted to less than 4,000 ounces, the Gover-
nor has proclaimed that after the 17th of February the
office will be closed."

LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 24, 1853.

It so happens that a complication of fortuitous
events at this moment command attention, simul-
taneously to the peril now being encountered by
the two most remarkable of the Asiatic Potentates,
the SULTAN and the EMPEROR of the CHINESE.
Recently we have taken occasion to comment at
some length upon the situation of affairs in Turkey,
and in doing so we have augured well, not with-
out reason, for the wise and resolute statesman-
ship of the young and chivalric AED-UL-MEDJID.
Our anticipations in his regard have, we rejoice to
think, been already, and to the full, realised.
The insolent diplomacy of the AUTOCRAT has been
summarily worsted at Constantinople. The ar-
rogant bearing of Prince MENSCHIKOFF has pro-
voked a fitting retaliation. RESCUID PACHA, the
most illustrious of the living administrators
among the Osmanlis, has been suddenly recalled to
supreme authority, being again placed by his
august master, and this time unconditionally, at
the head of the Turkish Government. In conse-
quence of which extraordinary step on the part of
the SULTAN, the Divan has been at once extri-
cated from its anomalous position, the designs of
the CZAR have been once more effectually frus-
trated, the 'ultimatum has been deprived of its
poisonous sting, and another opportunity has been
afforded to the Sublime Porte to cultivate anew
those amicable relations with the Courts of the
West, upon the maintenance of which is unques-
tionably dependent the existence of Turkey among
the principal Powers of the European Continent.
Not such, however, have been the fortunes be-
falling his other Oriental Majesty, the Emperor of
the CHINESE. He has, unhappily for himself,
found among his Councillors no sagacious and re-
solute Counterpart of RESCHID PACHA. His
situation, indeed, from first to last, has been
altogether different. Instead of having to con-
tend with a powerful and aggressive neighbour,
he has had to struggle against the encroachments
of an enormous army of well-organised and infu-
riated insurgents. Instead of having to foil the
diplomatic adroitness of a haughty and astute
Ambassador, he has had to battle in open warfare
with a fierce and gigantic rebellion. The particu-
lars of this rebellion, recently received, are found
to be quite of a piece with the prior history of the
race now agitated by the throes of a Revolution
a race perhaps as wonderful, and certainly, with a
single exception, as mysterious as any other on
the surface of the globe—a race dating back its
origin to a primaeval antiquity, and flourishing
during many past centuries in a state of
self-concentrated, and, in many respects, re-
fined civilisation. It was only a few years
since that the barriers of custom which

THE DERBY.

A Second Edition of the Racing Times publishes the
following, received by electric telegraph :

" Epsom, One o'clock._
" I think we shall have a magnificent race, and it
appears to me to lie with West Australian, Orestes,
Ptiaros, Cineas, Honeywood, and Sittingbourne. These
will, I think, be first past the post, and I should
not be surprised to see Honeywood one of the first
three. I have heard that John Scott has sent out a
commission to back him for 5001. If anything beats
the favourite I think it will be either Honey wood or
Orestes ; for, greatly as I admire the looks of Cineas, I
am afraid he is made in some way safe, although Alfred
Day says the horse that beats Cineas will win the Derby.
Peggy will run well for the Oaks."

HACKNEY CARRIAGES BILL.

The order of the day for the consideration of the Hack-
ney Carriages (Metropolis) Bill, as amended, was then
read.

Lord A. VANE said, he saw no economy in the bill, and
could not understand what there was in it which should
make the public so anxious for this " wonderful Cab
Bill." He should move, upon the next stage, that the half
miles be charged at a proportionate mileage rate, and that
the rate for waiting be assessed as at present.
Mr. W. J. FOX suggested that some right of entrance to
railway stations should be provided for cabs, and that
these stations should be put upon the same footing as the
other cab ranks.

Mr. J. M`GREGOR would be very glad to consent to
this, if the Government would repay the railway compa-
nies the money they had expended upon their stations.
Sir J. V. SHELLEY understood that the fee at present
paid by cabs on entering the stations was principally for
water, and that whatever there was over and above went
to form an annuity-fund for the cab-drivers themselves.
The bill was then considered, and ordered to be read
third time on Monday next.

MILITARY TROUBLES IN CUBA.

THREATENED SEIZURE OF GREYTOWN.
The United States mail steamer Daniel Webster,
from San Juan de Nicaragua (Greytown), arrived
at New Orleans on the afternoon of the 9th inst.

We learn from a private telegraphic dispatch,
that it was currently reported at Greytown that
the State of Nicaragua would immediately take
possession of the town, and abrogate the local go-
vernment.

The same arrival brings Havannah dates of the
Bth inst. Disagreements between the authorities
were notorious, and more disaffection had broken
out among the troops in the interior of the island.

" OF CAVALRY.

"10. The cavalry has usually encamped in open co-
lumn of troops, but with the alternate troops closed and
encamped back to back, as shown in plan 4.
" In this case, as with the infantry, the leading troop
should encamp on the prolongation of its own front in
column in order to leave a sufficient interval between
contiguous regiments, and thus admit of the free pas-
sage of troops through the lines.
" 11. The front computed for a mounted troop-horse
in the ranks is one yard, and when picketed four feet,
and the front and depth of encampments are computed
accordingly, allowing quarter intervals in the front be-
tween squadrons, and a similar distance between conti-
nuous regiments in brigade. Thus the actual interval
between the encampments of contiguous regiments equals
the front of a troop and a half.
"12. The encampment of a cavalry regiment on the
war establishment of four squadrons each, of 160 horses,
is shown in plan 4, 12 cavalry soldiers being the propor•
tion established for each tent.
" 13. But with the present reduced establishment of
regiments this mode of encampment could not be conve-
niently carried out ; the front covered by a regiment oc-
cupying too small a space for encampment in column of
troops.

"The most convenient mode therefore of encamping
a regiment of cavalry of the present establishment of
271 horses will probably prove to be in column of squad-
rons, as shown in plan 5.
" 14. Cavalry encampments do not admit of so great
an amount of compression as those of infantry, as the
cavalry horse must have four feet, or three feet and
a-half, at least, allotted to him at the pickets ; but with
a strong regiment the front may be reduced by lessening
the troop or squadron distances.

MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

PLYMOUTH, JULY 15.
The 7th Regiment Royal Fusiliers, in command of
Col. Yea, which has for some time been stationed in
this citadel, left this morning, at 5.45, by the South
Devon Railway, for Chobham. The train consisted of
17 second and two first class carriages, drawn by the
engines Comet, Meteor, and Priam, in charge of Mr.
Cockshott, the company's traffic superintendent, and
conveyed 31 officers, 818 men, 11 women, and 3 children.
Among these was a detachment of 30 men and the
Quartermaster of the 35th Royal Sussex Regiment, sta-
tioned at Devonport, who are gone on to Chobham to
take up the camp equipment for head-quarters,
which leaves early to-morrow morning, under com-
mand of Colonel Fraser. Brigade-Major Wetherall
superintended the departure of the 7th Regiment, which
is appointed to arrive at Slough at 2.30 p.m., whence
the men will have a nine miles' march on a good road to
the encampment. The 93d Highlanders, under Colonel
Rothe, from Chobham, is expected here to-day ; they
will be stationed at Devonport. The 50th Queen's Own,
under Colonel de Burgh Sidley, will arrive to-morrow,
and take up their quarters in Plymouth citadel.
The 50th Regiment, which broke up from camp at
Chobham, at 2 o'clock this morning, left slough at half-
past 6 a.m., Bristol at 2 p.m., Exeter at balf-ppt 6, and
arrived here at half-past 10. The train consisted of 21
carriages. A. second train, with the 93d g,isiment from
Chobham, is now at Plympton, distant five wiles.

REMOVAL OF TROOPS FROM THE CAPE.—We have
been for some time past aware that it was intended by
the authorities to" order the- Amaral of some of the
troops from the Cape of Good Hope on the cessation of
the war in Kafirland, and it is now decided that the fol-
lowing changes will immediately take place :—The Ist
battalion of the Rifle Brigade, under the command of
Lieutenant-Colonel George Buller, who left England for
the Cape on the 2d of Jan., 1852, are to return to Eng-
land ; the 12th Prince of Wales Royal Lancers, under
the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Pole, who
left England for India on the sth of July, 1851, but
were detained on their arrival at the Cape of Good
Hope for service against the Kafirs, are now to proceed
to India to relieve the 15th (King's Light Dragoons
(Hussars), under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel
George Wm. Key, the regiment having been on service
in India since 1839.

STATE OF THE WOOLLEN TRADE.

(Prom the Leeds Mercury of this day.)
done-E/3; JULY 15.—There has been a good business
and In the Cloth-halls this week. Both on Saturday
4114011 Tuesday there was a brisk demand for nearly
sect°l'll)6ons of cloths, especially for the heavier kinds,
e ti as beavers, pilots, meltons, &c., and in these goods a
ti°lllsiderable 'trade was done. Prices continue about
tiee), eatue• Stocks remain without any decided altera-
W. There have been several of the principal London
adrs in the town during the week, which has given
C
- 1
1°..4i activity to the home trade in the warehouses,
eati,,,,m. several of the shipping houses are doing a good
31"'"au trade, there continues to be a fair steady busi-
-13 doing in woollen cloths.
uppErtsrinn.—On the whole we have had a quieter
tofu alket than usual ; there have been fewer buyers in
t, buyt purchases have been contracted. Mer-
n nts cautiously, and generally to fit up their im-
r thate orders. Speculators are quiet, which is gene-
ally attributed to the Eastern question ; and until
tn,"avlllhething- final is known respecting it we may expect
e quiet markets.
a -L''colinaLE.—There has been a rather dull market, and
very limited amount of business transacted at former
c:`ees• The power loom weavers have obtained an ad-
nee of wages of 1212, and the piecers 10 per cent., from
"'oat of the masters, and those who have not yet given
this advance have promised to give it at the end of the
Present week. In wool there has been a
very littledtoin
doing,
the manufacturers showing no disposition to buy pre-
sent.
BRADFORD.—The trade of the district continues much
the
same ; in wools a. tendency downward ; in yarns
there are orders to give both for home and export trade,
but they are withheld from a feeling of doubt whe.they
Prices have seen the lowest point. The piece trade is
dull. We hear of partial strikes for higher wages, but
except in cases of peculiar oppression, we think work-
& are not well-advised who adopt such a mode of ob-
l'lg their wishes.
nallut""".—
The market to-day has been almost stag-
act. in eN'erY department ; so few and limited the trans-
it)", that prices are little more than nominal.
obl,lcEsTEn.—Our market has been very quiet ; stocks
for then are not large, and manufacturers are preparing
ket en e autumn demand. The dechne in the wool mar-
of yaables the spinner better to meet the present rate
sent Les, in which nothing is doing further than for pre•
ins diPPIY• The wool market is flat, growers not feel-
Wool s'll°sed to accept of present prices. The Colonial
to with es, which commence to-day, are looked forward
considerable interest.
