These Atlases lay claim to a degree of accuracy and an amount
of information not hitherto attempted in Educational Works. The
Maps have been constructed with a special view to the purposes of
soun I instruction, a,id are not copied from any existing Atlas; hence
thee will be found free from the common faults of overcrowding and
confusion with which so many School Atlases are justly chargeable.
►ly means of a new process of production, the Maps combine the
accuracy and neatness of the highest style of engraving with a
mechanical application of Colours, the effect of which is to secure a
clearness, correctness, and eh gance, unapproached by former
methods.

ARMING THE " NAVVIES."

It is stated that the navvies, platelayers, &c., engaged
to proceed to the Crimea are to be armed with a short
carbine, a pair of short pistols, and a cutlass each man ;
the pouch and frog for the cutlass will be suspended
from a waist-belt, which will be worn underneath the
frock or gaberdine. By the arming of the workmen
it is not intended that they shall act on the offen-
sive, but the arms are solely for their own defence
should they be surprised by the enemy while at work.

The author is peculiarly happy in his refrains;
in this respect he has something of the gift of
Beranger. Those who saw a spirited war-song of
his, lately published, will remember the concluding
lines of every verse came in with great effect—
" Oh! victory, joyful victory,
Like love, thou bringest sorrow ;
But, oh ! for such an hour with thee

The war lyrics in the present volume are full of
fire and spirit. They express the feelings which
animate the whole nation in a manner worthy of
the subject. The subjoined verses are from a
poem entitled " England Goes to War."
Now, glory to our England,
As she rises, calm and grand.
With the ancient spirit in her eycs,—
The good sword in her h and !
Our royal right on battle-ground
Was aye to bear the brunt ;
Ho ! brave heart ! for one passionate bound,
And take thy place in front !
Now glory to our England,
As she raises calms and grand,
With the ancient spirit in her eyes—
Tile good sword in her hand
To battle goes our England,
All as gal!ant and as gay
s !over to the altar on
A merry marriage-day.
A weary night she stood to watch
The battle-dawn up-roll'd ;
And her spirit leaps within, to match
Tho noble deeds of old.
To battle goes old England,
And as gallant and as gay
As lover to the altar on
A merry marriage-day.
Now, victory to our England !
And where'er she lifts her hand
In freedom's fight, to rescue right,
God bless our dear old land !
And when the storm has pass'd away,
In glory and in calm,
May she sit down i' the green or he day,
And sing her peaceful psalm !
Now, victory to our England
And where'er she lifts her hand
In freedom's fight, to rescue right,
God bless the dear old land I
Let not Gerald Massey despair of the " Poet's
awful crown," though he does well in not being
unduly elated by the praise of those who would
assure him he is already perfect. Let him amend
the defects of his style ; let him avoid, above all
things, the incomprehensible and exaggerated
school ; let him be more careful in the regulation
of the metre of his poems (which does not always
run smoothly, though occasionally very musical) ;
and let him have confidence in his own powers,
which, without the aid of critics or predictions,
will no doubt achieve for him an enduring fame.

THE 11EN1ZI IF.

We are assured (says the Deba:s) that Admiral Hame-
lin has not yet lost all hope of_ floating the Henri IV.
This operation, alcvays so difficult, would he in present
circumstances, under the enemy's fire, a Success per-
haps unheard of in the annals of the navy. It is known
that Captain Jehenne and the crew are still on board
the shipwrecked vessel, which they are endeavouring to
lighten completely, and which keeps the enemy at a dis-
tance with her guns."

PASSAGE OF FRENCH TROOPS THROUGB
ri-EDMONT.

In the sitting of the 2d, of the Piedmontese Chamber
of Deputies, on the estimates for public Instruction
being moved, M. Erolierio, the leader of the extreme
Left, begged the Cabinet to explain its policy before the
supplies were voted. A French regiment, he heard,
was to pass through Piedmont. Whenever foreign troops
had entered the country, they had, he said, entailed suf-
ferings upon it. These troops supported a despotic
Government ; were they going to Paris or to the Cri-
mea ? By allowing them to pass through, Piedmont
would be taking part in the war; now this war was not
a war of principles, but a war of personal ambition. A
journey of M. de Persigny to Turin had been spoken of.
It would be painful to see Piedmont drawn into an
alliance, where France and England are being joined by
Austria, who would thus stand side by side with Pied-
mont. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, in reply, ex-
pressed his regret that the speaker should have entered
upon a political discussion quite uncalled for by the
subject before the Chamber, which only related to
the budget of Public Instruction. The policy of the
Government, he said, consisted in displaying coldness
towards another State until it should have received such
reparation as was due to it. With other Governments
Piedmont entertained friendly relations. As to the war,
it was well known on which bide her sympathy lay, but
to sympathise and to contract an alliance were two diffe-
rent things. Were an alliance ever to be contemplated,
the Government would consult the Chambers. The
passage of French cavalry was to take place on ac-
count of the difficulty of conveying it by sea, and he
could not see how Piedmont could compromise her
neutrality by such a step. As to M. de Persigny's
journey, the Government was not informed of it.
M. Moia remarked that a declaration of sympathy
made by a Miabter in the Chamber, had some import-
ance, and that the passage of French cavalry was
dangerous, as it gave an advantage to one of the belli-
gerent parties. The Minister rivlied that he maintained
the word sympathy, which expressed no hostility towards
any Government, and that the passage of troops could
not be considered an advantage for a belligerent at such
a distance from the scene of action,

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

CLERKENWELL.—CharIes King, described as a
coal agent, was brought up on remand before Mr. Tyr-
whitt, charged with obtaining two guineas from Mrs.
Frances Wilcox, by fraudulent means.
Mr. Humphreys, as before, attended oa behalf of the
Great Northern Railway Company, and Mr. Lewis, of
Ely-place, attended for the prisoner.
The evidence taken at the former examination in con-
nection with the alleged fraud on Mrs. Wilcox, appeared
in The Sun of the Ist inst.
A second case now gone into was that of Mrs. Agnes
Eastoe, of 24, William-street, Hampstead-road, who
said that on the 30th of October jhe prisoner called en
her and asked her if silo wanted any coals for the win-
ter. She told him that she had ordered a ton of Silk-
stone's at 265. from Mr. Herbert Clarke, of the King's-
cross station, and that they were to be in on the follow-
ing Thursday. He replied, " Oh, I come from Mr.
Herbert Clarke, and I can let you have them earlier, you
know they are getting dearer." She replied, " I know
that, but they will not be dearer to us, because we have
booked them. She, however, said she would speak to
her husband about it. On the following day he again
called, but she told him that her husband would wait.
On the Thursday, about a quarter-past 10 o'clock in the
morning, a van arrived with a ton of coals, and I paid
the driver 265. About an hour after one of the Great
Northern Railway waggons brought a second ten, and
she took them in also and paid for them. She gave a
sample of the first coals to Mr. Lockerby.
Mr. Middlemass having repeated his former opinion
as to the difference of coals, said that, the sample taken
from Mrs. Eastoe were common "Barnsley.
Mr. Lewis—What is the value of such coal at the pit's
mouth?
Mr.Humphreys—Dolinot answer; the object is to open
the secrets of the trade. (Laughter.)
Mr. Tyrwhitt—l suppose there is a difference in value
at the pit's mouth and at market, in London.
Mr. Middlemass—There is.
Mr. Lewis at great length contended that there was
no evidence, in point of law, to make the first case heard
an indictable offence.
Mr. Tyrwhitt, however, said he quite disagreed in
that opinion, but would again remand the prisoner to
complete the cases. He would accept the same bail as
before.
The bail was put in.

TH AME S.—Charles- Bailey, an American seaman,
wa7 charged with stabbing Nubley. a ba4ket•

maker.
The injuries inflicted resulted from a publi(t-bouse
brawl, and. the complainant being in a dangerous condi-
tionitbe prisoner was remanded for a week.

The following private telegraphic despatch

" BERLIN, sill.—The Berlin journals publish the
despatch which M. ile Manteuffel addressed on the
15th ult. to the Prussian Ambassador at Vienna.
In this despatch the Prussian Government expresses
its intention not to demand from Russia any con-
cessions beyond the four points of guarantee."
The Moniteur says :—" The Count de Lastio,
aide-de-camp of the Minister of Marine, left on
Monday for the Black Sea with despatches from
the Government, and the promotions 'in the
squadron recently ordered by the Emperor."
The Sentinelle of Toulon,. of the 4th says :--
" There are now at Toulon five regiments, and
several detachments ready to embark. In a few
days they will have left and been replaced by
others." _ _ _

A letter from Mexico, dated the sth ult., in the
Ilioniteur, says :—" The General President of the
Mexican Republic being desirous of giving to the
Emperor Napoleon a proof of respect and esteem,
has been pleased to pronounce a full amnesty in
favour of the French who were compromised and
made prisoners at Guaymas. They will be placed
in the hands of the Charge d'Affaires of France."
The inauguration of the statue of the Emperor
Napoleon 1., in the Bourse at Lille, took place on
Sunday. A cortege, in which figured the prefect
of the department, the Archbishop of Cambria, M.
d'Arjuzon, chamberlain of the Emperor, deputed '
by his Majesty, the mayor, the members of the
Chamber of Commerce, the staffs of the regiments
composing the garrison, several military bands,
and deputations of workmen, with flags and ban-
ners, went from the Prefecture to the Bourse.
There the statue was uncovered, and the arch-
bishop offered up a suitable prayer. Speeches were
then delivered by the Archbishop, the Prefect, and
M. d'Arjuzon. After the distribution of medals
to ten deserving workmen, a caata, written for
the occasion by 31. Badduin de W iers, and set to
music by M. Watiez, was executed, and the cere-
mony ended. •

"Mados has been elected President of the

THE CRIMEA.

The Soldier's Friend of Vienna, of the 2d, says :
—" The dry weather which prevailed in Southern
Russia at the beginning of November has suddenly
changed. Since the 14th ult. there have been
heavy rains, snow, and high wind, which render
communications between Odessa and Sebastopol
exceedingly difficult. Prince Menschikoff con-
tinues to display great activity, and is constantly
visiting all the positions of his troops. The want
of proper surgical assistance is much felt in the
Russian hospitals. On the 19th ult. there were
9,000 sick or wounded Russians in Sebastopol.
The French and English prisoners are taken
into the interior of the country, in the pro-
vision-carts, returning b. y Perekop and Cherson..
Prince Menschikoff visits this last-named town
every fortnight to review the troops which arrive
and to examine the stores. He makes every exer-
tion to ameliorate the position of the soldiers by
whom he is much beloved. Nevertheless their
position is an exceedingly sad one ; the army is
exposed to the severity of the season ; has no tents
nor warm covering ; and each man receives only
half a Pound, of meat per week, which is not suffi-
cient."

FATAL ACCIDENT FROM MACHINERY.—An inquest was
held by Mr. Edward Herford, the coroner for the city
of Manchester, at the Coroner's Court, on Monday,
touching the death of Thomas Wilkinson, aged 35, a
cylinder-tender. The deceased was employed at the
cotton mill of Mr. Henry Lees, at Droylsden. About
three weeks ago, the morning being damp, he had occa-
sion to wipe the friction plate of a cylinder drying ma-
chine, which he did whilst it was going, and as he acci-
dentally slipped down on his knees his left arm was
caught between the wheels which turn the warp cylin-
der. He gave a shout, and the machinery was instantly
stopped, but his arm was so severely lacerated that he
died from the effects of the accident, in the Manchester
Infirmary, on Monday morning. John Braddoch, the
manager of the weaving department of the mill, said the
machinery was boxed off as well as it was thought it
could be done, but since this accident further security
had been added, which must render it impossible for
any person to be drawn in again. The jury returned a
verdict of " Accidental death."

PRUSSIA

BERLIN', Dec. 4.—The official confirmation of
the signature of a treaty between Austria, France,
and England, at Vienna, has produced a greater
sensation at this place than any event since the
declaration of war. The sentiment of satisfaction
on the one side—that is, the sentiment of nine-
tenths of the population, is the more lively ; and
on the other—that is, of the Russian party—the
more galling and mortifying, as all have been
completely taken by surprise.

We read in the German Journal of Frankfort,
of the 4th :—" The oriental committee of the Diet
adopted unanimously, in its sitting on the 241, the
additional article agreed to by Austria and Prussia
as a proposition to be submitted to the Diet. It
is intended to make only a few insignificant changes
in the wording. Wurtemberg ad Mecklenburg
gave their adhesion to the additional article. It
is said that Austria refused to present to the Diet,
in concert with Prussia, a proposition for the sup-
pression of public gambling establishments. The
proposition will therefore be made by Prussia
alone."

A letter from Vienna of the 2d in the Cologne
Gazette says :—" The Prussian ambassador at
Vienna, Count d'Arnim, requested M. Buol to
make known to the Western Powers the additional
article to the Austro-Prussian treaty, and the
acceptance of the four points by Russia, and to
press on them to open on these points negotiations
for peace, in which Austria shoul take a mediat-
ing part. Count Buol did not hesitate to comply
with the first request, but gave a downright nega-
tive to the second, observing that Austria had re-
ceived no official motification of the acceptance of
the four points, and that according to what was
stated the acceptance was accompanied by re-
serves which would not permit of its being enter-

tained.

A letter from Munich of the 30th ult., in the
German Journal of Frankfort, says :—" The
Minister of War applied for 30 millions of florins,
to place the army on a war-footing, but the Council
of Ministers reduced that _sum by 8 millions, so
that the Chambers will be asked for 22 millions for
that purpose. It is said that the war-budget
amounts to 12 millions."

The Post Ampt Gazette has the following letter
from Stuttgard of the Ist :—" This day a rescript
from the Privy Council was read in the Chamber
of Deputies, giving a negative reply to the proposal
made to limit for the moment the deliberations of
the Diet to the vote of the budget, and declaring
that course inadmissible."

THE COSSACK.

IThp Cossack, 20, screw, Captain E. G. Fanshawe,
was taken out of dock, at Devonport, on Monday last,
it having been discovered, as it was thought, that the
leak, to remedy which she was taken into dock a second
time, arose from some defect in the works connected
with the machinery, which was remeiied. She was
pl4ced at. moorings, in the Barbour, aaa it Is now found
she continues to make the same quantity as before she
was placed in dock—the cause of which is still a mys-
tery. A similar circumstance occurred in the case of
the Daring, some years since. She was docked twice,
and filled with water while in dock, but notwithstand-
ing the cause of the leak remained undiscovered—but
after she had been at sea a short time the leakage
ceased.

HER MAJESTY'S STEAMER HECLA FOR THE
BLACK SEA.

Hecla, 6, paddle, Commander Hawker, has received
her orders to be ready to sail to-morrow for the Crimea.
An accident was well nigh depriving the first lieutenant
(Berkeley) of the number of his mess. In hoisting in
a boat, the gear gave way, and the derrick spar fell with
force on the deck, striking severely the first lieutenant
and two men. Had it pitched full upon them it must
have destroyed all three ; as it was, the spar cut a large
piece of cloth out of Lieutenant Berkeley's coat, and
has given him a very heavy concussion, and, after strik-
ing the deck, bounded overboard.
