A. NEW CHANNEL_ SQUADRON.

We hear from good authority that another Channel
squadron is to be formed, and to be under the command
of Captain W. F. Martin, of her Majesty's ship nine()
Regent, 92. The squadron is to be composed of sailing
and steam-frigates (screw and paddle-wheels). Of the
ships named as likely to form this squadron are the
following:—

The Journal de Constantinople of the 14th says :-

"In consequence of the negotiations which have been
going on for some days between the Tarkish Govern-
ment and Cabinets of Vienna and'St. Petersburgh, rela-
tive to the question of political refugees, a general council
composed of ministers and high dignitaries, assembled at
the Porte on Tuesday last. On the following day Ali
Pacha, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, went to the
country residence of the Grand Vizir at Balta Liman to
transact business with that high dignitary. In the
course of the same day the first Dragomans of the
Austrian and Russian Legations were requested to pro-
ceed to Balta Liman."
The Austrian Ambassador has also demanded the
extradition of the Hungarians, in accordance with the
treaty of 1789, but the answer of the Porte is—
that she cannot admit the validity of that conven-
tion, which has been violated in the most flagrant
manner during the last fifty years. The Divan is
authorised in not admitting this treaty, as during the
Servian troubles of 1841, the Austrian Government
refused to deliver up the rebels who had fled to her
territory; that in 1843 a number of Bulgarian agi-
tators found safety in Dalmatia; and, again, the
Ministry of Prince METTERNICH refused to deliver
the Bosnian rebels of 1845. Under these circum-
stances, she does not consider herself liable in the
least to respect a treaty which has been trampled
under foot by the same power which at present is
placed in the position of appealing to it.
The following letter from Constantinople gives the
latest news of this grave affair :
" Constantinople, Sept. 17.
" The audience of congd of Prince RADZIVIL took
place yesterday.
" An ultimatum had been sent yesterday morning
by the Ministers of Russia and Austria, in which it
was signified to the Porte that relations would be
broken on the evening of the 17th if the Divan per-
sisted in its resolution to demand from the Emperors
of RUSSIA and AUSTRIA that it should remain guar-
dian of the prisoners.
" The dispositions of the Divan do not appear to
be changed by this ultimatum, and consequently the
rupture of relations is imminent.

WORCESTERSHIRE.

Her Majesty left the Birmingham Junction of the
Bristol and Birmingham Railway a few minutes
before ten o'clock. At the top of the l3romsgrove
Lickey, Worcestershire, about thirteen miles from
Birmingham, there is one of the most acute inclines
upon any railway in the kingdom. At the top of
this incline the train was stopped, and the journey
down was accomplished by its specific gravity, the
steam of the engine being shut off. At the bottom
was stationed a posse of the Queen's Own Worcester-
shire Yeomanry Cavalry, commanded by Colonel the
Hon. R. H. Clive, who received her Majesty with
presented arms, the artillery firing a royal salute.
There was no more delay here, however, than is
necessary with all the trains travelling down the
incline, and in a short time the royal travellers were
again on their way southward. The Stoke Prior,
Droitwich, and Spetchley (Worcester) stations, were
rapidly pasted. No address was prepared by the
Corporation of Worcester, it being understood that
her Majesty would journey rapidly through this
county. On the royal train arriving at Eckington, a
small village between Worcester Land Tewkesbury, it
was found that one of the axles of the engine had
become heated. This caused a slight delay, which
retarded the arrival of the train at the subsequent
stations between that point and Gloucester, and at
one time caused some little uneasiness. A few miles
further on her Majesty entered

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.

Sir,—The letter of "Indicus," in your journal of this
day, seems to me to prove the justice of the yublie feel-
ing against the employment of the persons crAlled " Poli-
ticals " in India.

He says "the Politicals implored Lord Gough not to
attack the enemy," and " wrung from him a promise;"
" that Sir H. Lawrence" urgently represented, &c. And
in the public dispatches we find that Major Mackeson,
being in the camp, " refused to enter into negotiations
with Shere Singh;" that he "informed the Commander-
in Chief that Chuttur Singh was coming down to join
Shere Singh," and therefore urged Lord Gough to ad-
vance and give battle.
I ask if war can be successfully conducted in that
manner? Is a Commander-in-Chief to be a mere puppet
in the hands of half a dozen young men, chosen because
of their having a smattering of languages, or, if you will,
because of their promising qualities?
War is the most precarious, the nicest of all arts; not
only because of the intrinsic difficulties of organizing and
governing great bodies, but because one general has to
contend against the genius of another general and the
energy and combined force of his army. It may be said
they are therefore oa an equality. True, if there are no
"Politicals" on one side. But, Sir, one general may
judge rightly, another wrongly; the last surely, if he is
governed by Politicals, because secrecy, unity, and
promptitude, both of conception and execution, are es-
sential to success; and a blot will be hit by the force of
50,000 men.

If young officers or civilians, elated, and rain of being
pushed beyond their regular station, and not habituated
to command, are suffered to " advise," to " urge," to
remonstrate," to " inform," how can a general thus
pestered succeed? If he is a man of genius and energy,
he will not bear such interference; the submitting to it
is proof positive of his incapacity or of his weakness.
Look not to what Sir 11. Lawrence or others have ad-
vised; look rather to what happened at Caubul—to what
would have happened in Sinde if Major Outram's
counsel bad been listened to; look to what has occurred
in the runjaub.
When the successors of Alexander disputed for com-
mand, Eumenes set up a tent with an altar to that hero,
pretending to receive orders from his ghost! The
" Politicals" had better do something of that sort than
set up a commander in the flesh who is to move only as
they direct.

With respect to other articles, in dyes and dyeing
stuffs there is not much alteration. In hides there is a
decrease in untanned wet, and a great increase in tanned.
In metals of all kinds there is an increase. In oils there
is a great decrease in palm, and an increase in the other
sorts. In timber there is a decrease in importation both
of British and foreign, but again a large increase in the
consumption of foreign and a decrease in the consump-
tion of British.

SAVINGS' BANKS.

Mr. HENRY HERBERT wished to ask the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer, whether it is the intention of
the Government to prosecute any farther inquiry into
the circumstances c.mnected with the late failures of
certqin savings' banks in Ireland.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it
did not appear to him that any further inquiry into the
circumstances of these banks was necessary.
Mr. GROGAN asked if the Right lion. Member
included the Cuffe street Bank in his answer.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
was a different case, and perhaps it would have to be
further investigated.
. . . . . .

Mr. H. HERBERT wished to ask the Member for the
University of Dublin whether there was anything in the
present state of legal proceedings pending in the matter
of the savings bank of St. Peter's parish, in the city of
Dublin, which renders necessary the postponement of an
inquiry by a Committee of that House into the affairs of
the said bank.

The SPEAKER ruled that the question was irregular,
and it was therefore not answered.

Mr. GROGAN asked his Hon. Colleague whether he
intended to persevere with his motion on this subject.

Mr. REYNOLDS could assure the lion. Gentleman
that it was his intention to persevere in his motion on
the day he had mentioned before.

STEAM VESSELS.

BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.)

IN RE LESLIE, ALEXANDER, AND CO.
A Court of Subdivision, consisting of Commissioners
Fonblanque, Goulburn, and Holroyd, sat to-day to con-
sider a proof tendered against the estate for the sum of
3,000 L, by a Mr. Theyer.
The claim had been admitted, and the main question
now was whether it ought not to be reduced to the
amount of certain charges and interest. The facts were
these—certain bills were drawn and accepted in England,
but dishonoured in America. They have been indorsed
to persons in Massachusetts and Albany. On the part
of Mr. Theyer it was contended that the holder of a
bill of exchange was entitled to the rate of interest in
the country where it was dishonoured, which in Massa-
chusetts was eight per cent. On the other hand it was
urged that interest could only be maintained according
to the law of England, where the bill was accepted, or
that if recoverable at all it was from the drawer, who
had been the principal in passing it to another country.
After a long discussion the case was adjourned for
consideration.

SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL.)
BELL V. DAVIS.

The plaintiff sued as the public officer of the National
and Provincial Bank of England, to recover of the de-
fendant, a farmer at Sawbridge, the sum of 5881. 14s. 3d.
for moneys advanced to the defendant.
The manager of the Stourbridge branch of the bank
was called, and proved that the defendant had an ad-
vance account with the bank, by which he was allowed
to draw on the bank, where money was advanced on
interest and commission. The custom was for the account
to be made up half-yearly, the pass-book and cheques
being sent to the customer, who sent back a "docker,"
or admission of the amount due. This was done in July,
1847, when the balance was found to be 537/. 18s. 11d.
Defendant was allowed to draw to a further amount, and
the cheques were sent as usual, but the defendant had
retained the cheques, and had not returned the docket.
The commission and interest was calculated at 181.95. I Id.
There being no defence to the action a verdict was
given for the full amount, 589/, 14s. 3d.

ANOVELTY.—There has lately been registered
an article that cannot fail to find a place in every Gentle-
man's wardrobe, as it effectually provides for a long-acknowledged
want therein. The said novelty consists in a body garment some-
what in the form of a dress-coat—that is to say, it can bo
worn without any distinct infringement of the laws of cos-
tume recognised In society upon ordinary dress occasions ;
but yet the garment is more especially intended for morning
wear, as a Riding or Walking Ceat ; and as, for such exercises, each
will maintain his own idea as to the requisite ease necessary for its
fit, the inventors, in order to insure the full convenience of their
patrons, will keep ready an extensive graduation of sizes, FO that a
selection can be made proportionate with the nature of exertion or
the wearer's own taste—thus at once obviating any annoyance
arising from the cutter not immediatelely comprehending what is
wanted.

Although composed of the NICOLLIAN CLOTH, yet a most
moderate price is charged, viz., Two Guineas for NICOLL'S
MORNISG COAT, as that is the name given to the said novelty,
and which can be had in London only of 11. J. and D. NICOLL, 114,
116, and 120, REGENf-STREET, and 22, CORNIIILL.

KINCAIRD V. 811 AW.

The plaintiff in this action was an advertising agent
in Jermyn-street, St. James's, and defendant resides in
Finsbury Pavement. The action was brought to re
cover the sum of 31. ss. for advertisements inserted by
order of the defendant, who pleaded, in person, that he

was not indebted, although he admitted, under a Judge-
order, h...ving given written instructions.

The jury, therefore, gave a verdict fur the amount,.
HIGGS AND A.NOTHER. W. DUNK.

This was an action for goods sold; the only point in
the cas, w.s that plaintiff had to submit to a reduction
of the amount, as the traveller had not asked for any'
specific amount, hut fn• the amount stated in the- cir-
cular ter;t by the firm in the usual way of businesF.,
stating the amount, and when the traveller would call.
The UNDER-SHERIFF did not think this was con-
elusive, and the jury gave a verdict for 141.

PRUSSIA

The National of Berlin of the 7th gives the follow-
ing description of the state of Germany under the rule
of the reactionaries :

" The situation of our country is such that every Ger-
man heart must be filled with anxiety. The hereditary
enemies of our freedom and unity, the dynastic policy of
princes becomes day by day more powerful in its inroads
upon the administration of our German affairs. In lieu
of the splendid prospect offered to us of reunion, an era
of restoration stands before us. Think upon the years
of slavery, degradation, and oppression that we have un-
dergone from 1815 to 1848! If you would not see those
years revive, arm yourselves and defend your rights.
This is no time fur sleeping."
In the sitting of the Chamber on the 12th, WAL-
DECK proposed a motion, calling on the Dove rnment
to terminate at once the state of siege. The debate
was adjourned.
