in print, feeling that the object which they had
in view might be seriously impeded by the prema-
ture publication. We presume that this will be
made known to the Benchers, who will then have no
excuse for feeling offence.

In the recent appointment of Mr. SMYTHE to the
Under-Secretaryship of Foreign Affairs may be seen,
we hope, something more than the mere nomination
of a young aristocratic Member of the House of Com-
mons to a subordinate office in the Government. Sir
ROBERT PEEL'S appointments have hitherto made
him open, in a most marked degree, to the reproach
of discouragement of the rising talent of his party,
preference for manageable mediocrity, and subservi-
ence to the aristocracy. Let us hope this is a be-
ginning of a better system. The Duke of Rlcamomn's
and Lord SOUTHAMPTON'S recent manifestoes have
probably convinced the Premier, that the only object
for which he could have been induced to saddle him-
self with their brothers in the Government has not
been gained ; he has choked up his Government with
aristocratic dummies, and the Dukes and Lords, whom
he thereby hoped to muzzle, bark and growl not-
withstanding. The course which Sir ROBERT PEEL
has hitherto taken, of seemingly deferring to the pre-
judices of the bulk of his party, and gradually
forcing from them small concessions, as op-
portunity served, may have had much to do with
his allocation of places. Talent and independence
will not submit to play a part in such policy. So it
has happened that all the rising talent of the Con-
servative party has been found, not only beyond the
pale of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Government, but in a
position of :quasi-hostility towards it. Its leanings
have been all towards a more liberal policy, which
we trust that Sir ROBERT PEEL IS now about to
embrace cordially and entirely; and we hope we may
look on Mr. SMYTHE'S appointment as the precursor
of others, which could not fail to strengthen public
confidence in Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Government. We
may, without being invidious, more particularly men-
tion Mr. MONCILTON MILNES and Lord JOHN MAN-
NERS as having gained for themselves a position with
the public which would give more strength to Sir
ROBERT PEEL than all the conciliation which all his
adroitness could effect with all the great protec•

tionist Dukes and Lords by whose connexions he
is surrounded.

To any exaggeration of facts, with the intention of
backing up a favourite argument, we are always most
scrupulously averse; nor have we any particular
affection for those mawkish and romantic senti-
mentalisms with which the advocates of a principle
occasionally attempt to enforce its truth. Neverthe-
less, circumstances will now and then arise which
savour considerably of fiction, and an especial allusion
to which might, to the superficial, subject us to the
accusation of a morbid partiality for some old wife's
story ; although an adherence to feelings of humanity
and a sense of common justice render such allusions
absolutely incumbent upon us. One of these sin-
gular occurrences—showing for the nine hundred and
ninety-ninth time the inherent rottenness and cruelty
of the existing poor-laws—took place on Sunday last,
at the union workhouse, in Norwich. It will amply
correspond with our intention to glance hurriedly
over the particulars of the case, such as they were
yesterday described to be before the bench of local
magistrates. In the abstract the tale is an old one,
but there are mixed up with it several incidental facts
that clothe it with a new interest. An old soldier, a
pauper in the poor-house, obtains permission from the
authorities to visit his wife and child, who are con-
fined in another ward : after, however, the half-hour
allotted for this interview has expired, he is possessed
with a sudden feeling of rebellion against the matron,
and a wild resolution that he will be separated no
longer from the former partner of his home, his
hearth, and his bed. Upon this a policeman is called

in to remove the insubordinate veteran against his
inclination. The old soldier clings to his wife, offers
no other resistance whatever, uses no language of
abuse or passion—and what does the constable do in
return ? Beats the old soldier on " the elbow" with
his baton, then upon " the bone of his leg," and
finally drags them—man, wife, and child—" all three
hanging together, to a dungeon, where they are locked
up for three hours." Another unfortunate inmate of
the establishment is seized with the contagion ; he
resolves to be no longer parted from his wife, who is
in her last month with child ; and seeing them both
" clinging together," the same policeman (having now
settled the other couple) beats them violently with
his staff. Surely these simple facts afford ample op-
portunity for the eloquent remonstrances of a phi-
lanthropist. In the hands of a skilful romancist,
much that is pathetic and much that is horrible might
he conjured out of the details: the old campaigner,
fired with an abrupt and almost child-like recurrence
to the affection of many years, the woman within a
few weeks of her confinement, the storm of weepings
and the bludgeon of the law. Out of these materials
a harrowing and startling picture might be produced.
In speaking as we have done we are far from wishing
to countenance disobedience to legal regulations, how-
ever harsh or stringent they may appear—quite the
contrary. Nor do we purpose uttering any diatribe
against Mr. STACEY, because he merely "gently re-
proved the officers for their improper use of their
staves ;" though whether such leniency be advisable is
a matter for question. We are only actuated by a
desire to direct particular attention to this recent
proof of the over-rigour generally displayed towards
paupers by the subordinate officials throughout the
country. There is a blight elsewhere than among the
potatoes—and a blight still more worthy of analysis
and eradication.

The Moniteur Grec of the 30th of December
gives an account of the opening of the second. Par-
liamentary session on the 22d. The KING opened
the session in person, with a speech from the throne,
but we find nothing in it worth extracting. It is the
most vague production of the kind we ever read, and
shows that COLETTI has great skill in using words
without conveying ideas. The attendance of Mem-
bers on the occasion was very small, and even up to
the 29th a sufficient number had not arrived to elect
a president.

We have received Madrid journals of the 9th. On
that day the Chamber of Deputies resumed the dis-
cussion on the Address, which terminated in a violent
scene. On the Minister of the Interior announcing
that a Bill for the better regulation of the press would
be introduced in the course of the session, the object
of which was to place the press on a more indepen-
dent footing, Senor ORENSE made a violent at-
tack upon the general policy of the Go-
vernment, and declared that it was nothing
but a tissue of illegalities and acts of violence. He
denounced the conduct of RENJIFO, the police spy
or agent, who got up the unfounded charges against
CORTINA, but blamed still more that Government
who, according to RENJIFO'S admission, had sent a
person in their confidence to him to say—" Get up
a conspiracy, and place yourself at the head of it, for
an opportunity is wanted of shooting some persons."
This produced a storm in the Chamber, during
which the Minister of the Interior demanded that
M. ORENSE'S words should be taken down. General
NARVAEZ rose in a violent passion, and after re-
butting the wicked charge, called Senor ORENSE a
calumniator, and vowed to take effectual steps
to stop such attacks. This only increased the con-
fusion and the violence of the parties, and the PRESI-
DENT, after vainly trying to restore order, adjourned
the assembly. A general belief now prevails at
Madrid that the marriage of the QUEEN with Count
Tan,Am is finally arranged, and that an announce-
ment to that effect will soon be made to the Cortes.

On the 9th the Three per Cents. closed at 34 at 6(
days ; and the Debt without Interest at 74 at 60 days

The debate in the French Chamber of Peers on the
Address, according to appearance, would occupy the
whole of the week, so that it could not commence in
the Chamber of Deputies till Monday at the earliest.
On Thursday the usual annual paragraph in favour
of Polish nationality was unanimously adopted ; and
at the hour of post the paragraphs relative to
Algeria were under discussion. In the Chamber of
Deputies nothing was done, but the Committees
appointed to examine the Budget in detail
were actively engaged, and five of the Com-
mittees had finished their investigations. The de-
partments which came under consideration were
chiefly those of War, Marine, and Finance. For
the first, the expenses are fixed at 325,693,957 f.
(13,000,000/.), those for Algeria being 75,992,21 E:

(3,030,0001.) The estimates are calculated for '
279,765 men and 66,249 horses for France, and
60,000 men and 15,241 horses for Algeria. This
gives an augmentation of 2,305,744 f. for France, and
2,901,784 f. for Algeria. The augmentations
relative to Algeria were objected to in some of the
bureaux. For the Marine, the ordinary expenses
are estimated at 117,863,654 f., and the ex-
traordinary ones at 8,240,000 f. The augmentation
for the former is 658,000 f. for 1847. The number of
vessels is maintained on nearly the same footing as in
1846- For that year they were 170, and for 1847
they will be 185. It is announced in the documents
laid before the bureaux, that in 1847 there will be
64 steamers on active service, comprising eight re-
quired for the western coasts of Africa. As to
sailing vessels, there are to be employed in the year
1847 one frigate and two corvettes less than in
that of 1846, but a greater number of cor-
vettes of the second class. Nothing is to be changed
in the vessels in commission de rade, and in commis-
sion de port. A sum of 61,300 f. demanded for the es-
tablishment of chaplains for the naval divisions was
opposed by several members of the Opposition, who
declared that they did not wish to behold a recurrence
of the abuses witnessed at the time of the restoration,
when priests were established in the regiments. For
the Finance department the expenses are estimated at
633,626,240 f., being an augmentation of 10,482,213 f.
It is on the service of the public debt that the aug-
mentation principally occurs. The new charges
inscribed on this part of the budget amount to
6,776,7811., but reductions bring it down to
5,238,280 f. The sum placed aside for the Five
per Cents. is 146,753,9351. ; for the Four per
Cents. 26,507,375 f. ; and for the Three per Cents.
65,150,5421. 'The interest of the floating debt is
fixed at 18,000,000 f. But little discussion took place
in the bureaux on the demands of this department.
Additional dispatches have been received from Al-
giers, which announce another victory over ABD-EL-
KADER, but it is a singular kind of victory. That
chief had ventured boldly into the heart of the
country occupied by the French, and committed
ravages on the territories of all who remained faithful
to them. General Jussur came up with him, hav-
ing under his command 450 horse, while ABD-EL-
KADER had 700, and the Arabs were completely dis•
persed, but the loss on both sides was trifling. Al-
together, BUGEAUD'S position appears hopeless. He
cannot repel the aggressor, and his own troops are
worn out with fatigne. The National, on this sub-

ject, says :
We learn, in fact, that the column commanded by
Marshal Bugeaud in person is in the most deplorable
condition. Forced marches, the rains, the bad state of
the roads, and privations, have put a great number of
both officers and soldiers hors de combat. As for ti e
cavalry, it may be said that it no longer exists; the
horses having nearly all sunk under hunger and fatigue,
insomuch that the Marshal has been obliged to transmit
orders to General LamoriciZTe to send him in all haste
the whole of his cavalry. This general, who occupied
Frenda, a post of the utmost importance under present
circumstances, has been constrained, by complying with
this order of his superior, to replace his squadrons by
calling in those of General Korte, who, that he might
not leave without defence the southern frontier
towards Daia and Saida, has caused himself to be
replaced by Colonel Walsin d'Esterhazy, who was
operating in the north. And this is not all. On the
eve of the battle of Temda, Marshal Bugeaud bad pro-
visions for no more than twenty-four hours, for his entire
army, and was obliged to obtain some from General
Lamoricit)re ; who, thanks to his humane and prudent
policy, has so firmly re-established the security of the
subdivision of Mascara, that he was able to bring up a
large convoy of provisions, and afford the Commander-
in-Chief a share. This, however, was but a feeble
relief, and the column of the Marshal was then at too
great a distance from the towns by which he could be
completely re-victualled. Thus is the military system
of the Hero of Isly decidedly characterised. Marshal
Bugeaud may boast of having, by his own fault, aggra-
vated a situation which was already sufficiently critical.
We should rejoice with all our hearts if we had less
reason to cry out agiinst him ; for God knows what
sacrifices we shall still have to make to get finally rid
of an enemy whose skill and resources set at defiance
the common-place understanding of the adversary whom
the Government persist in opposing to him, as if for the
purpose of rendering his task the more easy of accom-
plishment.

We subjoin miscellaneous extracts from the papers

Their Majesties gave their first ball for the season at
the Tuileries on Wednesday evening. The number of
foreigners present was great, the invitations having been
issued on an extensive scale.

Every day (says the Constitutionnel) the Govern-
ment offices are deluged with applications for employ-
ment. There are, it is said, this year, about four
thousand candidates, all supported by recommendations,
for the places of supernumerary in the direction of en-
registrement and domains of the Ministry of Finances.
On the report of M. Calmon, Director-General of this
department, the Minister of Finances has decided that
these places shall in future be given upon competition as
to merit, and not by recommendation, and that the
number of candidates shall be limited to one hundred.

Some agitatio : is still manifested in Switzerland,
particularly in the Canton of Berne, where the people
are holding meetings with a view to bring about a radi-
cal change in the constitution. On Sunday last there
was a meeting at Arberg of 4,000 persons, and a resolu.
tion was come to, to send an address to the Grand Coun-
cil, calling for the creation of a constituent assembly for
the proposed revision of the constitution. A similar
but still more numerous meeting was also held at Givatt,
at which the same resolution was come to. In both in-
stances it was resolved, that if the Grand Council should
not comply with the application a popular meeting
should be convened in the capital.
We understand that Ibrahim Pacha is expected in
Paris about the middle of next month, if the weather
should not be so severe as to render his removal from a
warm climate injurious, and that apartments have been
prepared for him at the Elysee-Bourbon.

CABINET Comicu..—A Cabinet Council was
held at half-past three o'clock this afternoon, at the
Foreign-office, Downing-street, the summonses for
which were issued yesterday. The Duke of Wel-
lington arrived in town this morning from a visit to
the Queen at Windsor Castle, in order to attend the
meeting. Lord Dalhousie also returned to town to-
day, from Windsor Castle. All the Ministers were
expected to be present at the Council.

For a considerable time past the Post office authorities
have bad very good grounds for the belief that a system was
going on of issuing spurious letter stamps, and that to a very
consiilerable amount. Measures were taken to discover in
what quarter of the country the fraud was committed, but,
until a few days since, without effect. A clue having been
found, a seizure took place yesterday of a considerable number
of forged stamps, and the mistress of a post. office in the
vicinity of London was apprehended, and no doubt
the police reports of to-day will show to what extent the
practice has been followed up. It may be, however, that for
the present there will not be any facts entered into, as the
Post-office is prosecuting inquiries in other directions, under,
as we art informed, the full belief that the scheme of robbery
has been carried on with impunity in more quarters than the
one to which peculiar attention is now directed. We are in-
formed that the plan hit upon by the Postmaster-General, to
discover the fraud, was a novel c ne, and which, when fully
matured, mutt lead to a speedy detection of other offenders.
The Funds are on the decline again, and as the Account is
polished off, the American news, of which the tenor is con-
sidered, upon mature reflection, as unfavourable, will tell
more upon prices than was the case yesterday. Consols are
91% to 94 for Money, and 941/ tort/ for Account. Bank
Stock is worth 203% to 205. The ew Three-and-a-Quar-
ter per Cents. are down to 97 and 96%. Exchequer-bills
are worth 17s. to 14s. premium.
Spanish Five per Cents. are flat at 28%; Portuguese
Four per Cents. 59% • and Equador Bands, 3%; Belgian
Four-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 97%; and Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents. 59.
Many of the Railway Scrips are better to-day, arid we
still hear of parties picking up what they conceive to be
bargains in lines which they can rely upon. The
Boston, Grantham, and Lincoln Company have set an
excellent example to other concerns which have not yet got
their deposits. They offer, if the amount paid by applicants
be not sufficient to provide the Parliamentary deposit, they
will return the whole without any deduction for expenses.
This relieves parties of any apprehension as to whether their
fellow applicants may pay up, though the respectability of
the Committee in such cases must be the best guarantee.
Messrs. Lamond and Co. had a fair sale of shares yesterday,
but we have not room for prices.
In shares a steady business had been done, and the market
had a better appearance :
