THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITII'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

OF,Y. 40. kR. tIaTR VROM EARL ntlii4ELL TO TILE LORDS
COMMISSIONERS OF THE 4:DMIRALTY.
My Lords,—Her
Majesty Fboerienili
serve the duties of neutrality during the existing hostilities
between the United States and the States calling themselves
the Confederate States of America, and being, moreover,
resolved to prevent, as far as possible, the use of her Majes-
ty's harbours, ports, and coasts, and the waters within her
Majesty's territorial jurisdiction, in aid of the warlike pur-
poses of either belligerent, has commanded me to commu-
nicate to your Lordships, for your guidance, the following
rules, which are to be treated and enforced as her Majesty's
Orders and Directions.
Her Majesty is pleased further to torsmand that these
rules shall be put in force in the United Kingdom and in
the Channel Islands on and after ThUrsday, the 6th Feb.
nexcand in:her Majesty's territories and possessions beyond
the seas, six days after the day when the Governor or other
chief authority of each of such territories or possessions re-
spectively shall have notified and published the same, stat-
ing in such notification that the said rules are to be obeyed
by all persons within the same territories and possessions.
I, During the continuance of the resent hostilities be-
tween the Government of the United States of North Ame-
rica, and the States calling themselves " the Confederate
States of America," or until her Majest—
y shall otherwise
order, no ship of war or privateer belonging to either
of the belligerents shall be permitted to enter, or re-
main in the port of Nassau, or in any other port, roadstead,
or waters of the Bahama Islands, except by special leave of
the Lieutenant-Governor of the Bahama Islands, or in
case of stress of weather. If any such vessel should
enter any such port, roadstead, or waters, by special
leave, or under stress of weather, the authorities
of the place shall require her to put to sea as soon as pos-
sible, without permitting her to take in any supplies, be-
yond what may be necessary for her immediate use.
If, at the time when this order is first notified in the Ba-
hama Islands, there shall be any such vessel already
within any port, roadstead, or waters of those Islands, the
Lieutenant-Governor shall give notice to such vessel to
depart, and shall require her to put to sea, within such
time as he shall, under the circumstances, consider pro-
per and reasonable. If there shall then be ships of war
or privateers belonging to both the said belligerents
within the territorial jurisdiction of her Majesty, in or nea
the same port, roadstead, or waters, the Lieutenant-Gover-
nor shall fix the order of time in which such vessels shall
depart. No such vessel of either belligerent shall be per-
mittad to put to sea until after the expiration of at least
twenty-four hours from the time when the last preceding
vessel of the other belligerent (whether the same shall be a
ship of war, or privateer, or merchant ship) which shall
have left the same port, roadstead, or water, or waters ad-
jacent thereto, shall have passed beyond the territorial
jurisdiction of her Majesty.

11. During the continuance of the present hostilities be-
tween the Government of the United States'-of North
America, and the States calling themselves " the Confede-
rate States of America," all ships of war and privateers of
either belligerent are prohibited from making use of any
port or roadstead in the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland, or in the Channel Islands, or in any of her Ma-
jesty's colonies or foreign possessions or dependencies, •r of
any waters subject to the territorial jurisdiction of the Bri-
tish Crown, as a station or place of resort for any warlike
purpose, or for the purpose of obtaining any facilities of
warlike equipment ; and no ship of war or privateer of either
belligerent shall hereafter be permitted to sail out of or
leave any port, roadstead, or waters, subject to British
jurisdiction, from which any vessel of the other belligerent
(whether the same shall be a ship of war, a privateer, or a
merchant ship), shall have previously departed, until after
the expiration of at least 24 hours from the departure of
such last-mentioned vessel beyond the territorial jurisdic-
tion of her Majesty.
111. If any ship of war or privateer of either belligerent
shall, after the time when this order shall be first notified
and put in force in the United Kingdom and in the Channel
Islands, and in the several colonies and foreign possessions
and dependencies of her Majesty, respectively, enter any
port, roadstead, or waters belonging to her Majes'y, either
in the United Kingdom, or in the Channel Islands, or in
any of her Majesty's colonies or foreign possessions or de-
pendencies, such vessel shall be required to depart and to put
to sea, within 24 hours after her entrance into such port,
roadstead, or waters, except in case of stress of weather, or
of requiring provisions or things necessary for the subsistence
of her crew, or repairs ; in either of which cases, the authori-
ties of the port, or of the nearest port (as the case may be),
shall require her to put to sea as soon as possible after the
expiration of such period of
.24 hours, without permitting
her to take in supplies, beyond what may be necessary for
her immediate use; and no such vessel, which may have
been allowed to remain within British waters fer the pur-
pose of repair, shall continue in any such port, roadstead,
or waters, for a longer period than 24 hours after her neces-
sary repairs shall have been completed :—Provided, never-
theless, that in all cases, in which there shall be any ves-
sels (whether ships of war, privateers, or merchant ships) of
both the said:belligerent parties in the same port, roadstead,
or waters within the territorial jurisdiction of her Majesty,
there shall be an interval of not less than twenty-four hours
between the departure therefrom of any such vessel (whe-
ther a ship of war, a privateer, or a merchant ship), of the
ono belligerent, and the subsequent deliirture therefrom of
any ship of war or privateer of the other belligerent ; and
the times, hereby, limited for the departure of such ships
of war and privateers respectively, shall always, in case of
necessity, be extended, so far as may be requisite for giving
effect to this proviso, but not further or otherwise.
IV. No ship of war or privateer of either belligerent
shall hereafter be permitted, while in any port, roadstead,
or waters subject to the territorial jurisdiction of her Ma-
jesty to take in any supplies, except provisions and such
other things as may be requisite for thb subsistence of her
crew; and except so much coal only as may be sufficient to
carry such vessel to the nearest port of her own country, or
to some nearer destination ; and no coal shall be again sup-
plied to any such ship of war or privateer, in the same
without special per-
mission,or any other port, roadstead, or waters subject to the
months from

DETECTIVE SNARE.—Berthier, the chief Napo-
leon's etat major, possessed a coup diced so admirable that
he could tell almost at a single glance how many thousand
men were contained in any given space, and Detective
Snare was endowed with something of a corresponding
faculty. No matter how far off a person stood, provided he
were actually. within the range of vision, Detective Snare
was able to make him out as accurately as if only a few
paces separated them. Indeed, it was considered by " The
Force "—such of them as were scientific—that, like the
vessels seen by the memorable old man at the Isle of France,
who used to announce their approach several days before
they actually arrived, the objects " wanted" by Detective
Snare were refracted.—" Crooked Usage" (by Dudley Coo-
tello) in Bentley's Nigegal for February.

THE NAVY.

Yesterday Vice-Admiral W. Hope Johnstone,
Commander-in-Chief at the Nore, paid an official,
visit to the training ship Wellesley, 72, at Chatham.'
The Admiral arrived off the dockyard in the steam
yacht Wildfire, Master-Commander G. Brockman,
and, after transacting official business with Capt 4
Fanshawe, superintendent of the dockyard, went
on board :the Wellesley, where he inspected the
various alterations which have recently been.
effected to adapt the vessel as a training ship. The,
Wellesley bas been fitted up to accommodate 250
boys and the usual complement of officers. The
whole of the main deck has been converted into a
spacious drill-room. At present there are only 120
lads on' board, but 100 more will arrive in a few
days from the other naval ports. Admiral John-
stone, on leaving the Wellesley, complimented Capt.
Studdert, the commander, on the excellent arrange-
ments and discipline maintained on board.,
Rear-Admiral James John Stopford, who was
selected by the Admiralty as ' successor to Rear-
Admiral Sir James Hope, K.C.8., as Commander-
in-Chief on the East India and China: station, has,
we understand, had his appointment cancelled at
his own request, Several other officers have been
named as likely to Succeed Sir James Hope, but we
believe nothing is definitively settled.'

The Defence, 18, will receive on board about 600
tons of coal before leaving" the Medway, to enable
her to steam round to Portsmouth. ,She will leave
Fay Point is the early part ,of nest week, and
drop down to the Nore, where she will swing to ad-
just compasses. Most of the work remaining to be

done on board will be completed to-day.
The screw corvette Rattlesnake, 21, 1,705 tons,
400 horse power, recently built and fitted at
Chatham, will be completed by the dockyard autho-
rities today, when the whole of the workmen, with
the exception of a few hands required for any
minor alterations, will leave her, the shipwrights
employed on her being required for the armour-
plated frigate Royal Oak, 91, five additional gangs
having been ordered to join that vessel on Monday,
to hasten forward her completion. The Rattlesnake
is an exceedingly fine screw steamer, and by her
completion another valuable addition has been made
to our large squadron of screw corvettes,and another
powerful war steamer placed at the disposal of the
Admiralty, fully equipped and armed, and ready for
service in any part of the world. The destination of
the Rattlesnake is not yet known, but it is probable
she will be sent rouni to Portsmouth, where she will
either hoist the pennant or be attached to the first-
class steam reserve. The expeditious manner in
which she has been brought forward, rigged, and
fully equipped for sea reflects considerable credit on
the dockyard officials, six months having scarcely
passed since the order was received from the Admi-
ralty for her to be fitted.
The Rosario, 11, screw steam sloop, 150 horse
power, Master W. L. Southey, having been again
tried at the measured mile off Maplin Sands yester-
day, was inspected by Capt. Wise, superintendent
of her Majesty's dockyard at Sheerness, and the
officers of the steam reserve.

The Fly, screw gunboat, GO horse power, Lieut.
and Commander Wm. Vickery, tender to the Corn-
wallis, GO, screw steamvessel, Capt. Sidney Gren-
fell, Coastguard service in the Humber, has been
taken into the basin at Sheerness, where she will be
put out of commission, before undergoing extensive
repairs. The Fly has been in active service during
the last six years.
The Lively, screw gunvessel, GO horse power,
which has had her engines converted from high-
pressure to condensing, and fitted with new pumps,
had her engines tried on Thursday at the measured
mile off Maplin Sands, when she obtained a mean
speed of 11 knots per hour, the trial being of the
most satisfactory character.
The Lords of the Admiralty contemplate erect-
ing two additional forts near Sheerness, to be
mounted with Armstrong guns of the largest calibre,
for the better protection of the estuary of the Thames
and the Medway. One of the forts is to be built
near Cheney Rock, at a distance of about one mile
to the north-east of Sheerness, and the other near
Qucensborough-green, at a similar distance to the
north-west of Sheerness. The forts tire to be con-
nected by means of a ditch and rampart, two miles
in length, which will be the distance between the
forts. Yesterday a party of surveyors and land
valuers inspected the locality on the part of the
Government, for the purpose of ascertaining the
nature and value of the land which will be required,
and with the view of facilitating its purchase as
early as possible.

Her Majesty's paddlewheel steamship Scourge,
Commander the Hon. W. J. Ward, yesterday went
into the inner basin at Woolwich, and discharged
the cases of antiquities from Candia, which were con-
veyed in charge of officers of the British Museum
to London. Commodore Sir F. Nicolson inspected
the ship.

The steam transports Brunette, laden with 450
tons of war stores for Bermuda, and the Wisbech,
with a heavy cargo for Halifax, have sailed from
Woolwich to adjust compasses at Greenhithe.

The dockyard authorities at Pembroke have re-
ceived orders from the Admiralty to proceed with
the utmost despatch in the construction of the
Triumph iron-eased screw frigate, 51 guns ; and in
consequence a large body of workmen have been
placed upon her. She was originally intended for a
91-gun liner of 800 horse power, but will now, like
the Royal Oak and Bulwark, be fitted with armour
plates, and carry an armament of the heaviest metal.
The staging to be used in the erection of the large
target at Shoeburyness, for the purpose of trying
the Armstrong shot and shell against a new descrip-
tion of iron armour plates, the invention of Mr. Scott
Russell, having been completed at Chatham dock-
yard by a number of hired shipwrights entered for
that purpose, was yesterday shipped on board one
of the Government lighters for removal to Shoe-
buryness. A portion of the iron armour plates to bo
tested was at the same time despatched from the
dockyard. The superiority claimed by Mr. Scott
Russell for his armour plates consists chiefly in their
being attached either to the target or the vessel's
side without bolts, thereby materially adding to the
strength of the planking which they cover. They
are hung vertically, and not horizontally, as is the
case with those which will protect the sides of the
Royal Oak, Royal Alfred, and the other armour
plated frigates, each plate being affixed to the ship
by a peculiar formation of the edges, obviating all
necessity for
,bolts.
