day, they succeeded in again getting her into the bay,
the Prince Albert having been sent from Dublin to their
aid, but from the violence of the sea and wind, S.W.,
broke all their tow ropes, when the ship drifted on the
North Bull, where she will become a perfect wreck.'
In the course of Saturday morning a party of the
Coast Guard from the Clontarf station went off to the
wreck, by the direction of Captain Lawless, who kindly
communicated a part of the above facts, and with much
difficulty succeeded in getting on board, the sea being
very heavy. Not finding any person in the vesrel, they
returned at 1 a.m. on Sunday morning, but the weather
having moderated they again went off to the ship, and
remained on board her to protect the cargo. The crew
had previously been taken off the wreck by the life-boat
of the Prince, and had reached the Sailors' Home."

WRECK OF THE TANCRED.
The Tancred, Mason, master, from Liverpool to
Smyrna, with coals, struck on the Arklow Bank, on
Wednesday, about 10 o'clock p.m. The crew were
brought to Dublin on the evening of the 19th inst.
The crew of the Tancred were directed to one of those
places called " Sailors' houses." Mr. Marshall, secretary
of the Sailors' Home, understanding that their board
was stopped by order of one of the mates of the ill-fated
vessel, on inquiry found it true, and that the poor fel-
lows were refused their breakfast, although a charge of
2/. 13s. Bd. was made for one day's board and two nights'
lodging for 10 men. He this enormous bill immediately
settled, and both crews are in the Home, 31 in number,
and their wants well supplied.

RUSSIAN AGGRESSION.

SOUTHAMPTON, JAN. 23.

A crowded and enthusiastic public meeting was held
this evening in the Town-hall, called by the Mayor,
pursuant to „►- Ventßously signed requisition of the in-
habitants, fon the :'purpose of taking into consideration
the important question of the unprovoked aggression of
the Emperor 9f-Russia against Turkey, and to memo-
rialise Her Majesty the Queen to adopt immediately, in
conjunction with her powerful ally, the Emperor of
France, such prompt and energertic measures as will
tend to preserve the integrity of the Ottoman empire,
and compel the Czar to submit to such conditions as will
guarantee the future peace and tranquillity of Europe
and Asia.

Mr. J. T. Tucker, the Mayor of the borough, occu
pied the chair.

The first resolution was moved by Mr. T. FALVEY,
who, in an able and lengthy speech, reviewed the origin
and progress of Russian policy in the East, and explained
its probable future bearing, if unopposed, upon the
commercial and political interests and supremacy of this
country, and upon the balance of power in Europe, as
provided for by existing treaties on the part of the
great Powers.

Mr. BORRETT seconded the resolution, which was to
the following effect :
"That, in the opinion of this meeting, the insolent
demands of the Emperor of Russia, to exercise a protec-
torate over the Christian subjects of the Sultan, are not
only incompatible with the honour and integrity of the
Turkish empire, but opposed to the laws of nations and
the just rights of independent States."

The second resolution was moved by the Rev. J. W.
WYLD, and seconded by Mr. S. BROAD, and was as
follows :

"That the present war in the East has been caused
solely by the Emperor of Russia, whose invasion of the
Danubian Principalities, in violation of treaties and pub-
lic law, was an outrage which the Sultan was fully jus-
tified in resisting by all the means in his power."
The third resolution, which is subjoined, was pro-
posed and seconded respectively by Mr. T. L. HARMAN
and the Rev. S. S. PEW :

" That the four great Powers of Europe—England,
France, Austria, and Prussia— who were parties to the
treaty of 1841, made for the special purpose of securing
the independence of the Turkish empire, having called
upon the Emperor of Russia to withdraw his armies
from the principalities, and he having decidedly refused
to do so, those Powers are bound in honour and the in-
terests of civilisation to aid the Sultan, if necessary, by
force of arms in expelling him, to require that he should
pay all the expenses of the war, and also, in entering
into any new arrangements, to sake measures for secur-
ing the future tranquillity of rurope by a well-defined
treaty, which shall have for one of its conditions the
opening of the Black Sea at all times to the ships of all
nations."

Mr. J. C. Cox proposed, and Mr. NORRINGTON se-
conded the third resolution, as follows :
"That the cordial union now existing between the
English and French Governments, as well as between
the people of those two great nations, affords us the
most sincere satisfaction, and that we highly approve the
decision by which the combined fleets are now cruising
for the protection of Turkey in the Black Sea."
"A fifth resolution was then agreed to, authorising
the Mayor to embody the foregoing views and expres-
sions in a humble memorial to her Gracious Majesty,
to sign the same on behalf of the meeting, and forward
it through Lord Clarendon for presentation to the
Queen ; and it was also agreed that a copy of the reso-
lutions should be forwarded through the French Ambas-
sador in London to His Imperial Majesty the Emperor
of France, and likewise through the Turkish Embassy
in London to the Sultan at Constantinople.
After the usual complimentary vote of thanks to the
Mayor, the meeting separated, the proceedings having
excited considerable interest.

LUMLEY v. GYE.—This action, which has been pending
for some time, is now drawing towards a conclusion. It
will be remembered that in the present term the Court
of Queen's Bench granted a rule for a new commission,
directed to the Royal Court of Berlin, to examine Mdlle.
Wagner and others, at the instance of the defendant.
The condition precedent of the new commission was the
payment of the costs of the former, which terminated in
consequence of the parties refusing to give evidence.
The rule for the new commission was to have been
drawn up within four days, but it was not done ; and
the result is, that the parties will proceed to trial with-
out the evidence by a commission. Notice of trial has
been given iby Messrs. Lewis and Lewis for the sittings
after term at Guildhall, and the cause is expected to be
tried about the 20th proximo, before a special jury. The
Attorney-General, Sir F. Thesiger, and other barristers
have been retained by the respective parties. The dam-
ages are laid at 30,000/., and the action is to recover
compensation for an alleged breach of an engagement of
Mdlle. Wagner through the defendant.

ME LONDON ORPHAN ASYLUM. Yesterday the
annual general meeting of the friends and subscribers to
this charitable institution, founded in 1813 for the re-
ception of destitute orphans from every part of the king-
dom, was held at the London Tavern, for the purpose of
receiving the report and upon other business. Mr. John
Norbury, one of the vice-presidents, presided. The se-
cretary read the report, from which it appeared that
since the general meeting of 1853, 79 children having com-
pleted their term, had left, two had died, 72 had been
admitted (65 by election), and at the present time, with
the 30 elected that day, the entire number under the
protection of the institution was 398, making the total
number benefited by the charity 2,111. The balance
showed the total receipts for the past year (including a
balance from the last account of 4501. Bs., and dividends
on stock 1,6891. ls. 10d.), to have amounted to 10,9371.
4s. 10d., and after all the expenses had been defrayed,
there was a deficiency of 3011. 12s. 3.d. The balance
against the society was caused by the enlargement of
the asylum, so as to accommodate 400 children, and the
re-building of the infirmary. The report having been
received and adopted, and 30 children (10 girls and 20
boys) elected, from a list of 122 candidates, a vote of
thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meeting
separated.
THE NAPOLEON DOCKS AT is understood
that among the commercial reforms contemplated by the
French Government, the establishment of the system of
bonded warehouses comprised in the proposal for the
impediments
interposed coin truction of the Napoleon Docks at Paris. is likely
to be carried forward, whatever mnfay
bthe l
political affairsmped
interposed by the existing state
general run of new enterprises. The concession for these
docks, which was given some time back to a public com-
pany, embraces the exclusive privilege for the issue of
warrants analogous to those issued in this country for
goods in bond, and which constitute a facility to trade
hitherto unknown in France. They are to apply alike
to goods liable to the octroi duty and to those which
come under the general Customs' laws ; and, as the an-
nual value of the articles of raw material and consump-
tion, together with that of free goods, that enter Paris
is estimated, even under the existing arrangements, at
40,000,000/., of which one-half at least are likely to be
warehoused, the measure would be of a momentous cha-
racter. At the same time, from the simplification it
would introduce, the friends of free trade believe it would
be of considerable value in accelerating that movement.
Under these circumstances, it is stated that Mr. Arthur
Berryer, the son of the orator, has recently been des-
patched to England on a special mission from the French
Government to gather full information regarding our
docks and bonded warehouses, and the effect of the re-
port he may make is anticipated with interest by the
mercantile classes.
THE LATE LORD BERESFORD.—It is stated by a local
paper that the late Marshal Beresford has bequeathed
his estates in the county of Carlow, together with a sum
of 15,0001., to the eldest son of one of his gallant com-
panions in many a hard-fought field, the late General
Sir Denis Pack, of the county of Kilkenny. The money
is to be expended in building a suitable residence on the
property.
