" No. 127.

"LORD BLOOMFIELD TO THE EARL OF CLARENDON.—
(Received March 7.)
(Extract.) " Berlin, March 4.
"Baron Manteuffel has just informed me that he had not
failed to submit to the King the copies of your lordship's
despatch of the 27th ult., and of the letter therein enclosed
which you have addressed to Count Nesselrode, requiring
the evacuation of the Danubian Principalities, and that
his Majesty immediately ordered him to address an instruc-
tion to General Roc how in the sense desired by her Ma-
jesty's Government.
" This instruction, he said, was sent to St. Petersburg,
last night by the post, and was drawn up in very pressing
language. It urged the Russian Government to consider
the dangers to which the peace of the world would be ex-
posed by a refusal, and declared that the responsibility of
the war which might be the consequence of that refusal
would rest with the Emperor.
" Baron Manteuffel added that' the King, in approving
the draught of the despatch which had been laid before
him, observed that he felt it to be his duty to give all the
support in his power to any measure which might still hold
out a hope, ever so slight, of the maintenance of peace."
On the 4th ult. Count Buol received from Baron
Meyendorff preliminaries of peace, which had been
drawn up at St. Petersburg, in accordance with
the suggestions made to Count Orloff, for trans-
mission to the Porte ; these also were rejected by
the Conference of the Representatives of Austria,
France, Great Britain, and Prussia, for the follow-
ing reasons :
" After mature deliberation, the Plenipotentiaries of
France and Great Britain, taking as the basis of their (lit.
amination the previous documents which had received the
sanction of the Four Powers, established the existence of
radical differences between those documents and the pro-
. posed preliminaries :

leave next week. The sth Dragoon Guards, stationed
at Ballincollig, under command of Colonel the Hon.
James York Scarlett, also under orders for the East,
are to leave for Dublin to embark for Liverpool) wheriec
they will proceed to Boulogne. From that port they
proceed to Marseilles, where they again embark for such
destination as may be deemed advisable. This route for
the cavalry is said to be determined on for the purpose
of keeping the horses in condition and ready for ac‘,:ioli.
A strong detachment of the Royal Artillery, with 75
horses, arrived here yesterday Ilom Limerick, to em-
bark for Bristol, for the purpose of being conveyed to
the seat of war. These horses, with about 60 from
Ballincollig, will be embarked this afternoon in the
Sabrina steamer.

WONDROUS POWERS OF CREDULITY.

Strange, if not impossible, as the fact may appear, we
can state, on the very best authority, that Lord Aber-
deen is not even yet convinced that we shall have war
with Russia. We believe we are correct, not only as to
the substance, but as to the very words made use of by
the noble Earl on Saturday night, after the arrival of
Colonel Blackwood from St. Petersburg, when speaking
to a near relative on the subject. His words were—"l
expect a counter project from the Czar, which, I hope,
will yet set all right." Surely the force of credulity
could no further go.—Morning Advertiser.

SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)
A BET-M'FARLANE V. BROWN.

This was an action to recover the small sum of 17s.
6d. for money lent.
Mr. W. H. Garry appeared for the defendant, and
admitted that 12s. 6d. had been borrowed, but defendant
had deposited a very interesting specimen from one of
the Cornish mines as security. As to the 55., the de-
fendant positively denied having borrowed it, but said
that he was playing a game at backgammon, when plain-
tiff made a bet to back him. He (defendant) did not
bet, but lost the game. Plaintiff said, "So You've lost
aUd have got to pay," and he handed the money over.
After some discussion, his Honour made an order for
the payment of 12s. 6d., but the mineral must be given
up.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.- (THIS DAY.)

IN RE DONALD M`LEAN.

This bankrupt was formerly the member for Oxford,
and was made bankrupt as a brickmaker, in consequence
of his having made bricks for building on his own estate.
The bankruptcy took place during the absence of the
bankrupt abroad in consequence of ill-health, and the
fiat was disputed without success, and after several ad-
journments the bankrupt did not surrender, he was pro-
claimed in the usual manner, and the assignees pro-
ceeded to realise the assetts.

The total debts (some secured) amount to 140,0001.,
and about 50,0001. proved, in two dividends of is. to-
gether, have already been paid. This was a meeting for
declaring a further dividend, which will be a mere frac-
tion, as there is only about 3901. in hand over the ex-
penses.

the report for the past quarter, ending the Bth of March.
Dr. ,JOHN WEBSTER, a Q•overnor, in the chair.

compliance with a resolution of the Court, held on the
4th January last, which was to the effect that the
schools connected with the 7 Metropolitan Charities, in
connexion with the Established Church of Scotland,
were established in consequence of remittances from
several Scotchnien in India, to which were added several
donations from Scotehtnen in England and Scotland,
among which was a sum of 100/. from the late Sir C.
Forbes, Bart., a fund was formed, the interest of which,
in the year 1840, was appropriated to the support of the
several schools.
The committee recommended a gratuity of 201. (in-
cluding school books) to the schools.
The report was received and adopted, when the Cor-
poration seal was affixed to a power of attorney to trans-
fer a sum of 2,000/. South Sea Stock into the funds.
In answer to a Governor,
The SECRETARY stated, in reference to the contem-
plated improvements adjoining the Corporation-hall,
that the City Commissioners, upon the new street reach-
ing their premises, intended to give them a new and
handsome front on the line of street, upon certain ar-
rangements being entered into between the Governors
and the City Corporation.
Thanks were voted to the Chairman, and the Court
separated.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearfhl con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Ito perusa lie
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consequent es may be avoided, and above all,
that there is sternly any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
The the Author s for a series of
th years been engaged in an extensive

SUICIDE FROM WATERLOO-BRIDGE.—Yesterday morn-
ing a respectably-dressed man committed self-destruction
by jumping off the bridge. An alarm was raised, when
boats put out to rescue the unfortunate man ; but, owing
to the fog, and the large masses of floating ice, they were
unable to rescue him from a watery grave.

SWEDEN AND DENMARK.

The late outrageous " post-convention " enacted
or submitted to by England has almost stopped all
English newspaper reading. Since the ukase ap-
peared nine-tenths of the British journals have
been given up as a matter of necessity.
The German Bund, at the formal request of
Prussia and Austria, have solemnly agreed to grant
pensions to invalid Schleswig-Holstein officers, and
their widows and orphan children. They will do
this in the shape of a "free contribution" from
each state. This is in addition to the immense
sums raised privately, and to the appointments
given many of these men in various parts of Ger-
many. So it is clear that rebellion is a better
trade than loyalty, when it is used for getting the
German empire new provinces.
The last news received from the East has
strengthened the hands of the Russian party. They
justly obsery e that En gland merely plays the double
of Russia, which has all along acted with energy and
consistency, and that it is merely suicidal to be the
ally of Great Britain, especially when Russia is in
the way.
There is to be a great Industrial Exhibition in
Christiania next summer, to which all Norway will
contribute specimens of its produce.
The Norwegian Government has sent two of its
high officers, Lieutenant-Colonel Wergeland and
First-Lieutenant Nielsen, to Stockholm, to confer
on a uniform plan for telegraph lines in the two
countries.

A part of Stockholm was lit with gas, on tr 43,1,
on the 19th. The effect was very fine. The whole
was to be opened in a few days.
A new and elegant translation of Sir W. Scott's
novels is appearing in Stockholm. Each volume
contains a whole romance, and costs only 2s. The
best English romances appear immediately in Swe-
den, well translated.

LONDON, MONDAY, JANUARY 2, 1854

However hopefully we may desire to begin the
New Year which commenced yesterday, it must be
acknowledged, at once, by us, on its very thres-
hold, that our brighter aspirations for England,
under PROVIDENCE, are based upon our abiding
confidence in the wisdom and energies of the peo-
ple rather than upon any, reliance whatsoever on
the possible discovery of those essential attributes
in their Government. It were a mockery to affect
otherwise under existing circumstances. It were
worse than a mockery—fox while we remember
that twelve months have elapsed since we were
eagerly demanding in these columns fair-play at
the outset to the ABERDEEN Coalition—precisely
as we had previously besought the multitude to
grant a hearing, " a clear stage and no favour,"
to the DERBY Cabinet, we cannot but bear in our
recollection also, how deplorably that reservation
of opinion in regard to the new Ministry, until
such time as its members should have revealed the
warp and hue of their policy, has been responded
to by the revelation of the utter absence of capa-
city, energy, and we might go so far even as to
add of integrity, on the part of this notable Joint-
Stock Administration. All these deficiencies, we
mean, have been disclosed during the past year
by the Aberdeenites in regard to the most essen-
tial of all points just now, namely, in reference to
the nature of our foreign relations, a subject affect-
ing more directly than any other in these times the
stability of our political strength and the dignity
of our national reputation. Whatever may be
argued by the official apologists of the Coalition
as to the subst4ntial benefactions conferred upon
the community since the advent of its mem-
bers to power at the close of 1852, it is
impossible to shut our eyes to the heinous and
enormous culpability of the ABERDEEN Cabinet
in degrading the name and deteriorating the in-
fluence of England before Christendom. Nothing,
indeed, can be said to compensate for the evil
effects of the course pursued by our Administra-
tors in that Eastern Question which has been fos-
tered by them from a local difference into a cause
of contention among the chief Powers of the
European Continent. Nothing—not all the in-
ternal benefits secured to the population
by the vigorous innovations carried out
by the Horne Secretary, not all the en-
lightened reforms effected in our commercial
system under the guidance of the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer. Nothing of all this—
not the remission of imposts on tea and on soap,
not the closing of the intramural graveyards, not
the revision of the hackney-carriage system, not
the reorganisation of the stamp duties, not the
passing even of the memorable Act in regard to
London, England, 1854-01-02

in-Chief of the Royal Carabineers had hastened ,to":
the scene of the disturbances. The Government,
os being apprised of those proceedings, took the
necessary precautions for the restoration of order.
At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, at
Turin, on the 27th ult., after the installation of
the President, the Minister of Finance presented
the budget for the year 1854. The Minister of
Justice presented a bill for the organization of the
judiciary orders. The Minister of War presented
a bill to modify the law on military promotion.

SPAIN.

Our accounts from Madrid are of the 24th nit.

No resolution of any interest was adopted at the
Cabinet Council, held the day before, under the pre-
sidency of the Queen, it being her Majesty's desire
that no measure of importance should be brought
forward until the Count de San Luis was suffi-
ciently recovered to take part in the delibera
tion s.

General Canedo, former Captain-General 0
Cuba, had arrived at Madrid.
On the 23d the Duke and Duchess of Alba
paid their homage to the Duke and Duchess de

FRANCE.

The levee usually held on the Ist of the new
year took place yesterday (Sunday) at the Tuileries.
The Ministers, grand functionaries of State, the
Judges of the Courts of Law, the Cardinals, and
Bishops, Canons, Marshals, Generals, and superior
officers of the National Guard, the members of the
Diplomatic Corps, all in the costume of ceremony,
were punctual in attendance. The reception was
held in the throne room, where the Emperor and
Empress stood under the rich canopy. It was
stated on Saturday the probability that the Em-
peror would address a few words at the moment the
representatives of the foreign Powers presented
the salutations usual on such occasions, and, as may
be easily believed, a good deal of suriosity was
manifested on the subject. After saying a few words
to the Nuncio, which were not overheard, the
Emperor addressed the other members of the
Diplomatic Corps, and said in substance, and very
nearly in words, as follows :—"I sincerely hope to
be able to maintain the relations of amity which
now subsist between my Government and the
Sovereigns whose representatives you are ;" and,
turning to the Ottoman Ambassador, he added,
" My good wishes, my sympathies, and my efforts
are in favour of your Sovereign, and you will be
good enough to communicate what I say to him."
He then bowed to the Ambassadors, and the rest
of the ceremony proceeded. The expression of the
human countenance is not always an infallible
means of ascertaining what the secret thoughts are,
and the features of the Emperor less than those of
any other man can be taken as an index of what
is passing in the mind ; but one or two persons
standing close to him at the moment he spoke
the words, the substance of which is just given,
thought they could read in his race the convic-
tion that the Emperor of Russia does not or will
not imitate the Porte in its acceptance of the
propositions of the Vienna Conference ; but they
could also see that the mind of Louis Napo-
leon was made up to the worst, and that he will
I not flinch whatever be the consequence. No intel-
ligence of an official character has been received
from St. Petersburg announcing the intention of
the Czar, and it is stated that what has been already
said on that subject is premature. Such may be
the case, though the belief is that that decision is
too truly guessed. at ; and it is certain that evn

Three hundred millions of men to be converted to
this! Can it be'? Is it in the inscrutable councils of
the Allwise that China * actually to teach Europe
what Christianity really is ? Theirs is the true
gospel of Jekis Christ—ours but the patristic
gabble of logical theology, as if religion were a
syllogism and. faith • a catalogue raison,ne. No
Trinity anion the Chinamen. They take their
creed from the Bible; not from councils, Popes,
chroniclers, and acts of Parliament. Is it to be
borne, that Bible societies, missionary societies,
"Edinburgh Albany-street Chapel, United Auxi-
liary Local Gratis Sabbath Evening School Tract
Societies" should organise conspiracies at Exeter-
hall, for destroying this simple apostolic, faith, and
with the authority with which every thing Euro-

We do not for a moment hesitate to say that 'the
religion of this Tao Ping in the most enlightened,
intelligent, beneficent, deeply true, that the world
ever saw—that is the 4.‘ true light that lighteth
every man into the world," that at length we
'have a chance of ,getting the real religio4 that

sect be found who will tell these Chinese not to
believe us, but to trust to themselves—to assure
them that we are encrusted with the follies of a
thousand years, and enchanted in the castle of tra-
dition and authority—that they start fresh from
the fountain head of truth, with minds not fore-
stalled and regrated by false educations and pre-
judged convictions, but newly emancipated from
the slavery of supersition—that they, in fact, are
Bible Christians, and we nothing better than Act
of Parliament. theologians, the slaves of custom and
the victims of authority more ignorant than our-
selves ? The noblest mission that ever brought
truth into the world is now open to the staunch
apostle of pure religion. Who will be the prophet ?
One word more we have to say. We must say it.
Let the Bishop of Exeter be exported to China
with the next cargo of cottons from Manchester ;
and there get himself converted, with all conve-
nient speed, to Christianity !
