quarians do, let the antiquarians subscribe and
preserve them. Let not the preservation of costly
monuments of the past be confounded with pro-
viding for religious worship and instruction. The
parishioners might, and would spontaneously pro-
vide for the latter, but the former is, if we look
at it fairly, the concern of those otply whose taste
inclines that way. Lord JOHN does not regard
these churches, he says, " as the churches of a
sect, but as national churches ;" if so, he ought
to give all the sects free use of them in their turn.
Most singular of all was his thorough old Tory
conclusion. The Church, he says, the hereditary
Monarchy, and the hereditary Artistocracy—he
should have added the Army and Navy—are all
bound up together. If one falls, the others will
fall with it. Abolition of Church Rates would
be the beginning of the fall of the Church—there-
fore, of the ruin of "our glorious Constitution in
Church and State." Most certainly, then, our
poor Constitution begins to shake. _lt came within
twenty-seven votes of the awful danger on Wed-
nesday night, with every appearance of something
worse next session. Lord JOHN, to the rescue,
then ! It is, however, deplorable to see this
almost venerable Whig statesman thus rehearsing
the ELDON predictions concerning Catholic Eman-
cipation. A short time will prove the RUSSELL
forebodings to be as groundless as those of ELDON.

Again and again we have asked why our army
was never sent into the Baltic as well as into the
Euxiue, to aid the combined fleets by land opera-
tions ? Is it simply because the Black Sea is very
far removed from the Russian capital, and be-
cause, consequently, au army sent into the Baltic
to aid the maritime movements of NAPIER and
DESCIIENES would tend, of course, to secure the
settlement of the war at once, and effectually ?
Whatever the reasons may have been for sending
an army into the Black Sea, and no army at all
into the Baltic, the facts of the case ate suffi-
ciently suspicious. A kindred circumstance
—a circumstance we cannot but still think most
deeply to be deplored—is discoverable in the man-
ner
in which Sir CHARLES NAPIER hag been sent
out to the Gulf of Finland, without not only
troops to aid his fleet by land, but without also
au adequate supply of gun-boats, having a light
draught, to enable him to push forward beyond
Cronstadt, in spite of all the obstacles in the way
of shoal-water navigation. It might be as well
for Mr. LAYARD, as for some other Members who
may follow him on Thursday evening, to demand
from Lord JOHN RUSSELL, in regard to all these
facts, the why and the wherefore.

command of Captain Lockwood, were embarked on
Thursday morning at Plymont h on board the transport
ship Medora, which was towe d into the Sound yester-
day by the Confinance and Pil ke steamers.
The transport-ship William l Kennedy was towed along-
side Devonport dockyard yesti xday preparatory to em-
barking the last troop of the 8 th Hussars.
On Thursday afternoon, at 5 o'clock, the 46th Regi-
ment arrived at the Kingsbi ridge terminus by special
train from Kilkenny, and at o nce marched to the North.
wall, Dublin, where they embarked on board one of the
steamers belonging to tke yof Dublin Steam packet
Company, which sailed in a few hours afterwards for
Liverpool. For the present t heir destination is Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire, in the manufacturing districts of
which they will be quartered.
Advices from Cork, dated Thursday evening, say,
"The embarkation of troops in this harbour for the seat
of war continues unabated.. Not a single day passes
that some one division or at lather of the troops destined
for the East is not seen in one of the river steamers,
amid the enthusiastic cheers of assembled thousands,
dropping down the river, to be placed on board one of
the transports which await them at Queenstown. That
this departure of her Majesty's troops from this port is
not at its end is plain from the fact that since the sailing
of the several vessels which have arrived in harbour
within the last few weeks, for the purpose of conveying
troops out, two splendid transports the Cornwall,'
1,030 tons, and the Dunbar, I,32o—came into harbour
on Tuesday evening. A division of the gallant Argyll-
shire Regiment, the 91st, arrived here yesterday by rail
from Dublin, and the last division of the 17th is expected
to arrive to-day. Both of these divisions are destined
for the East, and will probably embark in the Dunbar
mid the Cornwall.

. --
Two companies of the Ist battalion 12th Foot will be
moved from Belfast to Cork on the 2d of May by train ;
the bead-quarters and remaining three companies to move
shortly afterwards. The 12th will be replaced in Bel-
fast by the 62d depot from Fermoy, and the 68th depot
from Newry. The depot of the 3d Buffs, from Naas,
will occupy Newry. Draughts from the following
depots, for the service companies at Malta, are ordered
to be held in immediate readiness for embarkation—viz.,
the 3d Foot (Buffs), 170 rank and file ; the 9th Foot,
100 rank and file ; the 62d, 100 rank and file ; the 68th,
180 rank and file ; total, 550 men, exclusive of officers.

THE MILITIA.

The training of theist West Yorkshire Regiment of
Militia at Pontefract is proceedit.g very satisfactorily,
and the men are making good progress. Previous to
attending divine service last Sunday each man who
acknowledged himself a member of the Church of Eng-
land, was presented by the clergy and churchwardens of
Pontefract with a neat Prayer-book. The committee of
the Mechanics' Institution have thrown open their read-
ing-room free to the men during their period of training,
and have ordered additional newspapers for their use.
The 3d West Regiment at Doncaster are also very for-
ward in their training duties, having commenced bat-
talion drill on Wednesday, the eight day after their
arrival.

FIRST MATCH AT "LORD'S" FOR THE SEASON.
Notwithstanding the anniversary dinner of the Maryle-
bone Club does not take place until Thursday next, some
of the leading members played/I matr.h.at Loral's on Tues-
day last, by way of opening the season 1854, with the
newly-revived club, the St.:Jolin!s;woOd:Club. This last-
named club for many yoars, some time knee, was of great
strength, enumerating as it did all the players of the
ground,'in conjunction with some of the leading amateurs
of the then day in its ranks. For this occasion the 31. C.
members ranged themselves under the denomination of the
Easter Club., The day was beautiful, and, looking at the
small amount of practice several of the combatants had had
this year,-the play was very good. The score stood thus at
the cldse of the day :

The Spanish Government has given notice that three new
lighthouses have been erected at the entrance of the

BELGIUM.

The Belgian Moniteur contains the following
notice :-- •

" Commercial men are informed that instructions have
been addressed_to the judicial, maritime, and -military
authorities, warning them that no privateers under any
flag, or provided with commissions or letters of marque,
of any kind whatever, either alone or in companiwith any
vessels they May have captUred, will be admitted into our
ports, except driven in by stress of weather. These autho-
rities are in consequence charged in the latter case to keep a
strict watch over such privateers and their prizes, and to
force them to put to sea as soon as possible. It has been
prescribed to the Barrie authorities not to admit as of legal
value any commission or letter of marque delivered by
the belligerent Powers,. without the authorisation of
the Government, and the King. Any_ persons subject
to the laws of the kingdom, who shall fit out privateers,
or take any part in them, will therefore expose them-
selves, on the one hand, to
.be treated 'as pirates abroad,
and, on the ,otker baud, to he prosecuted before the
Belgian tribunals with all the rigour of the laws."

THE DANUBE.

Letters from Bucharett of the 20th, state that on
the previous day,. a Turkish corps of 6,000 men
passed the Danube at Sistow, to attack the Rus-
sian entrenchments on the other bank. A severe
combat took place on the Wallachian bank. How-
ever it led to no other results than considerable
losses on both sides, and the Turks retired.

THE DOBRUDSCHA AND THE BLACK SEA.

The Wanderer of Vienna has the following from
the theatre of war :

" Reports from Bucharest confirm the news that
the Turkish troops have abandoned the defence of
Trajau's Wall, and that this important point has
been occupied by the Russian troops. The Rus-
sians send without any obstacles, expeditionary
corps to Mangohn above Kavarna. General LU-
ders has his head-quarters at Murattur, at some
miles from Karassa, between It arassa and assowa ;.
there are every day little combats. It appears that
General Luders intends to establish a communica-
tion with the corps-d'armee which occupies the
other bank of the Danube, and to surround Ras-
sowa. The occupation of Traja,n's Wall by the
Russians took place ou the 7th."
News has been received from Odessa that three
Russian coasting-vessels and their cargoes had
been captured by the Anglo-French fleets.
A letter from Adrianople announces the arrival
in that city of the Kurd Amazon with her 400
horsemen. It adds that she was only waiting for
the orders of the Governor Rustem Pacha to begin
a campaign.

IN RE WAITE.

This bankrupt had carried on business as a butcher in
Wormwood-street, and to-day was appointed for choice
of assignees. In the course of the proceedings it was stated
that the debts were about 1,700/., assets 300/., and property
to a large amount had been secured by the assignees—a
bill of sale existing, but the man in possession was ousted,
not having his authority with him.
His Honour said that possession was said to be nine
points of the law. He looked upon bills of sale and assign.
ments generally as frauds upon the creditors, and the
assignees would do well to retain all they had taken.
The Solicitor to the Assignees—We have been threat.
ened with an action.
His Honour—Well let them fire, you know what to do.
An allowance of 31. per week was allowed to the bank-
rupt, and Messrs. Robinson and Knowles were appointed
by the Court accountants to the estate.

CHURCH PREFERMENT.—The Rev. James Davidson,
late curate of Whitby, Yorkshire, to the vicarage of
Nafferton, in the same county,—patron, his Grace the
Lord Archbishop of York.
DRAIN OF GOLD.—The last arrivals of Australian gold
have not yet been delivered, and meanwhile a further
sum of about 60,0001. was taken from the Bank yester-
day for transmission to Paris. The effects of this steady
drain are observable in an increased demand for money
out of doors.
CARDINAL WISEMAN.—The Cardinal has arrived in
London from Rome, to resume his ecclesiastical functions.
His Eminence came home from the Eternal City by way
of Paris, where he had an interview with the Emperor
Louis Napoleon on matters connected with the see of
Rome, and the Roman Catholic Church.
A MAN STARVED TO DEATH.— Some excitement was
caused yesterday morning m the neighbourhood of Ken-
sington in consequence of the disoovery of t;ie emaciated
body of a young man in a brick-field under the follow-
ing circumstances. Some men while going to their em-
ployment, about six o'clock, discovered the deceased
►ying upon the ground, apparently asleep, but on going
up to him they found that he was quite dead. From
the body being in a most emaciated condition, and from
the fact that the deceased was known to have been beg-
ging► about the neighbourhood for some days, there is no
doubt the unfortunate man has died from starvation.
DEATH OF THE KNIGHT OF .GLIN.—The Limerick
papers announce the death of the Knight of Win, John
J. Fitzgerald, who expired of the prevailing epidemic,
and after a few hours' illness, at Grin Castle, on Tues-
day. The deceasezl was Li,JuLna.,t-Col,,nel of the
county of Limerick Militia, and one of the oldest magis•
trates the district.

THE GERMAN POWERS.

A communication from Marseilles says the fol-
lowing may be considered official:—
" Austria has at leugthstaken a definitive part.
The 19th of the present month the Eiupuror Francis
pledged himself to the Western Powers to occupy
immediately Grecia, either at Scutari, Provesa, or
Vola, both with army and fleet. Also to put down
any movement in Montenegro. Prussia will fol-
low Austria. It was the knowledge of this which
induced' the Duke of Cambridge to assist .at the
marriage of the Emperor."

The Press of Vienna states that the prohibition,
by the Russians, of the exportation of corn from
the Upper
.part of the Danube, had produced a
gr4at sensation on the froUtiers of Austria, where
it was considered an- act of indirect hostility to
Austrih.

The Vienna correspondent of the Independence of
Brussels mentions a rumour, without guaranteeing
its authenticity, to the effect that the convention
between Austria and. Prussia, lately signed at Ber-
lin, had not been ratified at Vienna up to the 25th,
and that difficulties had arisen of sufficient import-
ance to render necessary the return of General Von
Hesse to Berlin.

On Thursday afternoon, at 5 o'clock, the 46th Regi-

train from Kilkenny, and at once marched to the North-
wall, Dublin, where they embarked on board one of the
steamers belonging to the City a Dublin Steam packet
Company, which sailed in a few hours afterwards for
Liverpool. For the present their destination is Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire, in the manufacturing districts of
which they will be quartered.
Advices from Cork, dated Thursday evening, say,
"The embarkation of troops in this harbour for the seat
of war continues unabated. 'Not a single day passes
that some one division or another of the troops destined
for the East is not seen in one of the river steamers,
amid the enthusiastic cheers of assembled thousands,
dropping down the river, to be placed on board one of
the transports which await them at Queenstown. That
this departure of her Majesty's troops from this port is
not at its end is plain from the fact that since the sailing
of the several vessels which have arrived in harbour
within the last few weeks, for the purpose of conveyire7
tr)ops ont, two splendid transports the Cornwall,
1,030 tons, and the Dunbar, I,32o—came into harbour
on Tuesday evening. division of the gallant Argyll-
shire Regiment, the 91st, arrived here yesterday by rail
from Dublin, and the last division of the 17th is expected
to arrive to-day. Both of these divisions are destined
for toe East, and will probably embark in the Dunbar
and the Cornwall.

Two companies of the Ist battalion 12th Foot will be
moved from Belfast to Cork on the 21 of May by train ;
the head-quarters and remaining three companies to move
shortly afterwards. The 12th will be replaced in Bel-
fast by the 62d depot from Fermoy, and the 68th depot
from Newry. The depot of the 3d Buffs, from Naas,
will occupy Newry. Draughts from the following
depots, for the service companies at Malta, are ordered
to be held in imme date readiness for embarkation—viz.,
the 3d Foot (Buffs), 170 rank and file ; the 9th Foot,
100 rank and file ; the 62d, 100 rank and file ; the 68th,
180 rank and file ; total, 550 men, exclusive of officers.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
GOLD MINING FAILIIRE.-IN RE D.L. SHIELDS.

This bankrupt was described as of Lime-street, City,
merchant, and to-day was appointed for consideration of
the certificate.

The bankrupt had been in business on his own
account ; and it appeared, from the accounts prepared by
Messrs, Robinson and Knowles, that the debts amount to
about 3,500/. The assets' depend entirely on the realisa•
tion of consignments.
Mr. Grainger, of Bucklersbury, said the bankrupt was so
seriously ill that he could not attend the court. There
was no opposition. His Honour granted an immediate
certificate of the third class.

RUSSIAN PRIZES.

FOLKESTONE, April 28.—The Russian barque Kam-
schatka, of about 400 tons, with a crew of 15 men, from
Cadiz for Elsinore, with a cargo of salt, has been made a
prize off here by Captain Skipwith, Inspecting Comman-
der of the Coast Guard at this port, and will be brought
in next tide.
DOVER, Saturday, 3 a.m.—ln consequence of the
heavy gale which, until the last few hours, has been
blowing from the north-east, vessels have been compelled
to seek shelter under the lee of the land. A large num-
ber, both here and at Folkestone, have consequently
been lying off, anchored close in shore. At about 10
o'clock last night it was reported that Russian ships
were lying off Folkestone. The Lion, Dover revenue
cruiser, then in harbour, proceeded there on receipt of
the intelligence, and succeeded in capturing a Russian
barque of about 400 tons. It is believed there are more
Russians in the Channel, the Dover cruisers are conse-
quently on the qui vive. It may be said, en paBBant,
that the Lion is a particularly smart cutter, well offi-
cered and well manned.

BOMBARDMENT OP ODESSA.
The following important despatch has been just
received :
" By Telegraph.

" OMSSA, 24th April.
" Odessa was bombarded on the 22d—no damage
whatever was done. On the 22d And 23d was
quiet. We are assured they were preparing to
re-commence hostilities to-morrow."
To this, we believe, we may add that the British
fleet left Odessa in consequence of the Russian
squadron having . come out from Sebastopol with
the apparent intention of placing the combined
squadron between two fires. It is important to
mention this as some exaggerated rumours may be
received upon the subject. When Admiral Dundas's
fleet steered out to meet the Russian squadron, the
latter declined the combat and retired to Sebas-
topol, the combined fleet sailing to Varna Bay.
The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
estimated at 5,000 bales, including 1,000 taken
for export and on speculation. The market closed
heavily. Railway Shares were steady.
The directors of the Frankfort, Wiesbaden, and
Cologne Railway Company have, in consequence of
the war on the Coutinent, made most satisfactory
arrangements to limit the present liability of the
shareholders, a striking contrast to the recklessness
of some boards in pushing on new schemes, to the
great pecuniary loss of the subscribers. A circular
issued explains thus what has-been accomplished:—
" 4n application has been made to the Nassau Govern-
ment to restrict the pecuniary liabilities of this company
within the smallest possible limits, so as to remove the
necessity for any Calls for capital beyond that amount
which is absolutely required to make the outlay already
incurred remunerative to the shareholders.
"The council has great satisfaction in being able to
announce the entire success of this application.
" The Company is allowed by the Government of
Nassau a delay of about three years (viz., until the 23d
June, 1857) to decide whether it will undei take the con-
tinuation of the line beyond the first, most valuable por-
tion of the enterprise, the Rudesheim section."

The decrease in the- speCie held by the Bank of
England during the week to the 22d inst. came
near to the amount which on Tuesday last we men-
tioned as being 'probable, and must be in part due
to the withdrawal of deposits. The sum to the
credit of the Chancellor of the Exchequer continued.

FIRST MATCH AT "LORD'S" FOR THE SEASON,

Notwithstanding the anniversary dinner of the Maryle-
bone Club does not take place until Thursday next, some
of the leading members played a match at Lord's on Tues-
day last, by way of opening the season 1854, with the
newly-revived club, the St. John's-wood Club. This last-
named club for many years, some time since, was of great
strength, ennmeratmg as it did all the players of the
ground, in conjunction with some of the leading amateurs
of the then day in ita ranks. For this occasion the M. C.
members ranged themselves under the denomination of the
Easter Club. The day wag beautiful, and, looking at the
small amount of practice several of the combatants had had
this year, the play was very good. The score stood thus at
the close of the day :

S HARE MARKETB.
(THIS DAY.)

STATE OF TRADE•

' (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER April 28.—The enlarging prospect for the
supply of the raw material has, of course, a present ten-
dency-to render the buyers of our staple products mai.°
cautious than before in their operations. The spirit of otti
market has been rather impaired, too, by a vague uneasi-
ness in the public mind about the conduct of ti le
war, and by the withdrawal, in one week, of mare
than 600,000/. in gold from the Bank of England.
The operatives at Stockport are returning to work
on the masters' terms ; andthis, with the evident Ap-
proach of a like termination of the contest at Preston,
has an effect upon articles whose supply will thus
be augmented. These circuthstances have had a considor7
able influence in restricting the demand for yarns and goods
during the present week'; but, independently of them:, a
curtailment of business would naturally follow that clear-
ing out of yarns and goods for India and China which was
effected in the fortnight preceding thiaweek. With com-
paratively little doing, it has been found that buyers could
secure a slight advantage in bargaininewith the spina era
and manufacturers of some articles, so far at least as the
advance asked last week is concerned.
NOTTINGHAM, April '27'.-There is not any improvement
in the condition of our' local trade since our last report,
each remaining unusually (lull for the `season. The 'price
of yarn, both for lace and hosiery purposes, continues un-
changed.
LEICESTER, April 27.—There is a little more doing
amongst the country houses for the spring demand. Buyers
for the London and Manchester market are only sorting up
stocks. Foreign orders would be 'given out to a greater
extent but for the uncertain state of the yarn and wool
markets. ' _ _

Business done
this day.

BRADFORD, April 27.—W00l : The position of this branch
is anything but satisfactory. There will be a greater pro-
portion of old wool irk the country On the eve of clip this
year, than has been the case for many years, especially in
fine wools, which are yet dull sale. Yarns The com-
plaints of the spinners were never so greit or so well
founded as at present, for yarns are sellingatp: ices ruinous
in the extreme, and all kinds of full bred deep stapled
wools are fully 3d. per lb. to enable the spinners to cover
cost, notwithstanding all the advantage that improved
machinery can aid m the combing.
