NEW YORK, Feb. 4, 2.30 p.m.

The peace conference between President Lincoln,
Mr. Seward, and the Confederate Commissioners,
has proved a failure. Both Governments remain as
they were.
Gold, 2131.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 (Evening).

The Associated Press despatches state that Presi-
dent Lincoln and Mr. Seward had an informal con-
ference with Messrs. Hunter, Stephens, and Camp-
bell on board a steamer at Hampton Roads. The
conference lasted four hours, and it is positively
known that it resulted in no change in the attitude
of either Government. In other words, it was a
failure.

Then

advanced the Emperor, dressed as a general officer,
followed by the Princes of the Imperial Family

having rank at Court, the Grand Almoner, the
Commander of the Cent Gardes, and the several

officers of his Majesty's household. The moment
the Emperor appeared, loud cries of " Vive
l'Empereur ! " burst forth from the whole assembly,
and continued until his Majesty had taken his seat

on the throne. Prince Napoleon, Prince Louis
Lucien Bonaparte, Prince Lucien Murat, and Prince

Joachim Murat occupied places near. The Grand
Master of the Ceremonies then intimated to all to be
seated, and his Majesty rose and delivered, in a very
distinct voice, the following speech :---
Messieurs les Senateurs,
Messieurs les Deputes,
At the time of your last assembling I hoped
to see smoothed away by a general Congress all the
difficulties which then menaced the repose of 'Europe.
The event, to my regret, has proved otherwise, for
the sword often severs questions instead of resolving
them, and the only basis of a durable peace is the
satisfaction given by the accord of the sovereigns in
the general interest of the peoples.
In the presence of the conflicts which surged up
on the shores of the Baltic my Government,
divided between its sympathies for Den-

mark its good wishes for Germany, has ob-
served throughout the strictest neutrality.
Summoned in a Conference to contribute its

advice, it is bound to maintain the principle of
nationalities and the right of populations to be
consulted as to their fate. Our language conformable

to the reserved attitude which we purpose still to

A SPORTING APPLICATION.—A well-dressed young man
made the following extraordinary application to the magis-
trate :

Applicant—A man told me that he had gone £2 upon a
running man, and asked me if I would stand in.
Mr. Arnold—l don't understand this slang. What do
you mean, pray, by the phrase " stand in ?"
Applicant—Be in it. Take a part, but he bested me.
Mr. Arnold—ls this a matter in which you require pro-
cess of the Court, if not, I cannot hear you any further. I
have nothing to do with pedestrian matters.
Applicant—l wanted either a summons or a warrant.
Mr. Arnold—What for ?
Applicant—Obtaining money under false pretences.
Mr. Arnold—Then state the facts plainly to me.
Applicant—Last Monday week a man came to me and
told me he had gone £2 upon a pedestrian match, and
asked me if I should stand in, as it was more than he could
afford to go at once. He said he had staked the money
with a man named Shepherd, and I said I would go ss.
with him, and I gave him the money then and there.
Mr. Arnold—What is the false pretense ?
Applicant—Shepherd never held the £2.
Mr. Arnold—Did you know the man who had your ss. ?
Applicant—Yes.
Mr. Arnold—And Shepherd ?
Applicant—Well.

Mr. Arnold—You could have inquired of Shepherd into
he truth of the story. _ _

Applicant—l could not inquire then. I took his word,
considering it was all right.
Mr. Arnold—lt is a very foolish matter. You had better
sue him in the County County for the ss.

SAN PAULO (BRAZILIAN), LIMITED.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yester-
day at the London Tavern, Mr. R. A. Heath in the chair.
The report, an abstract of which has appeared in The
Sun, was taken as read.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said that at the last meeting it was mentioned that arrange-
ments had been made with the contractor for the payment
of extra sums if the works were pushed on, so that it could
be opened before the time specified in the contract, and he
was happy to say that these arrangements had been so far
carried out that there was every probability of the
early completion of the undertaking• The railway, he
stated, started from the port of Santos, a post with which
formerly only vessels drawing very little water could com-
municate, and here the company had made a large project-
ing pier, with landing places fitted with cranes and all other
appurtenances, alongside of which vessels drawing 18ft. of
water could load and unload. The rails came down to the
water side, and a ship could be loaded or unloaded direct
from the trains. The line to the first station from Santos—
namely Cubatoa, had been completed, and on the work
beyond this, through the Sierra, including the formation
of a viaduct, which was the most difficult work on the line,
great progress had been made, so that the opening of the
line from Santos to San Paulo might be expected in Jan.,
1866, or even earlier. The completion of the undertaking
to Jundiahy would bring the produce of the plantations of
the Campines district over the whole of the company's line,
in addition to the produce from the districts on either side
of the railway. He stated that in addition to the capital
of;£2,000,000, which was required for the completion of
the line, a further sum of about .L 500,000 would be required
for the payment of interest, and on the whole of which
there was a guarantee of 7 per cent. per annum.
Mr. BIRD seconded the motion for the adoption of the
report, and stated that the directors might keep the line
unopened untillB7o, but that they were so desirous of ad-
vancing the interests of the shareholders that they were
making strenuous endeavours to complete the undertaking
within five years of the time specified in the concession.
After some observations by Mr. NicitoLsoN and other
shareholders, the report was adopted unanimously, and a
vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings.

THE NEW JUDGE,—" The Lord Chancellor,"
says the Law Times of to-day, "is entitled to the
very highest commendation for his choice of the new
Judge. It needs some courage to set partisan influences at
defiance and distribute patronage according to professional
instead of political merit. Mr. M. Smith was an active
opponent in Parliament of the Ministry to which Lord
Westbury belongs. Only in May last he voted for their
expulsion from office. But, regardless of this, Lord West-
bury selected him for the vacant seat upon the Bench, be-
cause he knew that there was no man at the Bar having
higher professional claims to the office, or whose ermine
would be more heartily welcomed by the entire profession.
These are the acts which will be recorded and remembered
to the honour of the present Lord Chancellor when hasty
words that have provoked hostility are forgotten. The
appointment of the Conservative Mr. M. Smith by the
Liberal Lord Chancellor Westbury to the highest office in
his gift is an act memorable and laudable in itself, and of
great value as an example to future Chancellors. It would
indeed be well if henceforth politics were to be wholly
excluded from the choice of Judges, and if it were to be
made a rule that competency alone should be considered in
the selection.

MARLBOROUGH-S TREE T.

CRUELTY TO A HORSE BY A COLONEL'S GROOM.—lienry
Pringsley, groom to Colonel Adair, of 7, Audley-square,
appeared before Mr. Knox, to answer a summons, for
cruelly beating a horse, the property of his master.
Mr. Edward Dillon Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street,
appeared for the defendant, and Mr. William Love, chief
officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, attended to watch the case.

The case was proved by Lora Godolphin Osborne, and
Wm. Cane, 35 C, who both saw the defendant strike the
horse in a cruel manner between the ears with the butt-
end of a riding whip, the defendant at the time having
been drinking.

Mr. Lewis addressed the magistrate in. the defendant's
behalf, and called several witnesses, all of whom said the
defendant was very kind to his horses, that he had trained
several for his master, and that the horse was a young one,
and therefore required some punishment.

Mr. Knox said he would give the defendant the benefit
of the good character he had heard of him from his master,
who had sent him a letter. He had no doubt the defendant
had ill used the mare, and that he had been drinking at the
time.

The defendant was fined 405., or a month in default.
THE CHARGE OF CONSPIRING TO SET FIRE TO A HOUSE.—
Henry Gray, described as a French merchant, of No. 96,
Oakley-street, Chelsea, was brought before Mr. Knox by
Sergeant Druscovitch, of the detective force, on a warrant
charging him with conspiring with others to set fire to the
house of Mr. Picon, 21A, Frith-street, Soho.
Mr. Edward Dillon Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street,
appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Albert interpreted.
Some of the evidence already taken, and which affects
the prisoner, having been read over, Mr. Knox said the
prisoner would be remanded till the day the other prisoners
wore brought up.

The prisoner asked permission to make's statement.
Mr. Knox cautioned him that whatever he said would be
taken down and used in evidence against him.
The prisoner then entered into a lengthened statement
of his connection with Meyer.
lie was then remanded.

MET,

Mr. H. LEWIS asked the Home Secretary whether it
was his intention to produce a measure rendering it obliga-
tory that in future the plans for theatres and all other
places of public amusement should be submitted for approval
to an architect, to be appointed for that purpose by the
Government, SLc. ?

Sir G. GREY said that there was no intention to intro-
duce any such bill at present. The Lord Chamberlain had
adopted very stringent measures within the last three years
respecting the construction of metropolitan theatres and
the securing adequate means of egress. Similar means
might be taken to prevent accidents in music halls and

provincial theatres.
TRANSPORTATION TO AUSTRALIA.

Mr. MOOR asked whether it was the intention of Go-
vernment to discontinue the transportation of criminals to
Australia, and, if so, at what period such discontinuance
would be commenced?

Mr. CARDWELL said, from the papers laid on the table
of the house, it was apparent that the Government pro-
posed to recommend to her Majesty the discontinuance of
trans-British criminals to Australia, and that the same

ild take effect in three years
THE RIVER TYNE PILOTAGE..

In reply to Mr. lIoDGsoN,
Mr. M. GIBSON sail that a bill on this subject would
be introduced next vic.:l,7.

JUDGE COURSAL

Mr. PEACOCKE asked the Secretary of State for the
Colonies whether Judge Coursal in Canada had been dis-
missed in consequence of any communication from the Go-
vernment at home ; if so, whether such communication
was made at the instance of the Government at Washing-
ton.

Mr. CARDIN:ELL said he had received no official infor-
mation on the subject, and if the gentleman in question had
been dismissed, it had been by the Governor-General of
Canada acting on his own responsibility.

Lord STANLEY asked the Secretary of State for India
whether the inquiry now being carried on into the respec-
tive rights of the telookdars and cultivators of Undo is in
pursuance of instructions issued by him; and whether he
would lay on the table any correspondence has passed on
the subject?
Sir C. WOOD; who was very indistinct, was understood
to say that the policy of Lord Canning on this subject
would be adhered to.
IRON-CLAD SHIPS.

Sir J. ELPHINSTONE asked the Secretary to the Ad-
miralty to lay Admiral Dacres' report on the iron-clad
ships in the Channel fleet upon the table of the house.
Lord C. PAGET said the report alluded to could not be
laid on the table at present, although it had been received.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—FnIDAr.

Notwithstanding the publication of acceptances for the
Spring Handicaps and Liverpool Grand National Steeple..
chase, speculation in this market continues flat, although
several books have been opened on the above races. For
the Liverpool Steeplechase a few fancy bets were made,
but they call for no introductory comment. Twenty
" ponies" were taken about Lord Zetland for the Chester
Cup ; and Bedminster was firm for the Derby, at 18 to 1.
For the Waterloo (Coursing) Cup there were several in-
quiries respecting the nominations of Lord Lurgan, and
ItessrS. Bland, Randell, and Steel, but little business was
done thereon.—Closing prices :

PROVISION AGAINST FIRES, &c.

Mr. BUTLER asked when it was probable the commis-
sioners appointed to inquire into the Government powder
magazines throughout the kingdom will make their report;
and whether it was the intention of Government to intro-
duce a bill to compel the owners of public buildings to pro-
vide sufficient means of escape in the case of fire?
Sir G. GREY said that a commission, of which Sir John
Burgoyne was the chairman, had been appointed to inquire
into the most efficient means to be adopted for the protec-
tion of life by the prevention of accidents, not only in
Government magazines, but in other powder magazines
throughout the country.
