well-deserved savings, may at :the very hour of his
arrival be seized and torn from his home
and friends, without an opportunity being
afforded to him of seeing the one or enjoying the so-
ciety of the other : in vain may the fond wife
expect the cheering presence of the partner of her
affections, for whose return she has so anxiously
looked forward, so earnestly; prayed. At the very mo-
ment of his expected presence she hears the bitter tale
of his being kidnapped away, and sent, perhaps, for many
years to a foreign and unhealthy climate, during which
period she may pine under the hope deferred which
maketh sick the heart. In vain may the widowed

liberty, to a compulsory service. On what plea or
pretext can such acts be tolerated or justified
for a single moment ? Solely on the Imperative neces-
sity there exists for the maintenance of our naval
power, of procuring men for our vessels

It has been said, and we believe truly—the autho-
rity of the gallant and distinguished officer by whom
it was asserted compels our belief—that if we wanted
at this moment to man five or six vessels of war, we
could not do so in less than five or six months.
What can be the reason of this unwillingness
to serve ? What is it that renders our navy
different from every other branch of the public service,
the exceptiop to every other mode of employment, in
which there is an abundant supply of jour fully
adequate to the demand? It is not the privation, and
difficulties, the dangers that must be encountered in
so perilous a vocation. No ; the hardihood, the
bravery, of the British tar forbids the in-
jurious supposition, It is the deep, the burn-
ing sense of injustice, that renders him un-
willing to engage in a service in which
he would be daily subjected to the degradation of
being lashed iihe a dog before his friends and ship-
mates, at the mere whirs an 4 caprice of a _heartless
and tyrannical despot. file innocence of ispy offence,
his anxiety to do his duty to the best and utmost Of
his ability, nay, the perfect and entirp discharge
of that duty, may all be insufficient to
save him from the brutalising pnd hor-
rible flagellation. He may be tied up
without an opportunity of saying one word in his
own defence, and receive forty-eight lashes, inflicted
by a brawny and stalwart boatswain's mate, or rather
boatswain's mates; for we believe that they are
changed at every dozen lashes on such occasions.
What slavery is worse this ?—the slave owner
pays too large a price for the unhappy being
whose destinies are committed to his hands
to make him willing to deprive himself of the
valuable services during the sojourn in hospital of his
victim. It would be too expensive an amusement to
be frequently indulged in, but such is not the case
with the captain ; he can spare the man from his
labour for a season. The Secretary for the Navy
whose anxiety for the amelioration of the condition
of the sailor, and desire to do everything in
his power to induce them to love the ser-
vice, and willingly to enter therein we are
happy to acknowledge, states that the severity
of the discipline, the practice of flogging, has been
very materially relaxed; for that, while 2,000 men
out of 34,000 were flogged in the year 1839, 1,200
only out of 40,000 were lashed in the year 1845.
Good GOD ! can this be the mitigated system of which
they boast, against which a word is not to be spoken,
or complaint uttered, when in the very last
year, 1,200 English sailors withered beneath the
brutal and brutalising cat—no less than three per cent.
on the entire number employed ? Can it be wondered
at that the press-gang is necessary, that the navy
cannot be manned without force, when so large a
proportion is subjected to such a punishment ? But,
forsooth, the discipline of the service cannot be en-
forced, the safety of the vessel cannot be secured un-
less such a power is placed in the hands of the com-
mander. We wholly and entirely dissent from,
and enter our protest against such an opinion,
although we doubt not it is conscientiously main-
tained and honestly put forward by many humane
and honourable men. There are many means of
enforcing obedience, of securing the performance of
the duty, without having recourse to so horrible an
alternative. It is well known that Lord NELSON
abhorred flogging, and never resorted to it

but in extreme cases. Can it be said
that the crews serving under his command did
not well discharge the duty they owed to their
country ? It was abolished by NAPOLEON both in the
army and navy of France. Can it be said that he
did not know how to secure obedience, or what was
necessary for its enforcement ? It has not since
been restored in that navy. Have we heaxd any
complaints from the French people of the im-
possibility of maintaining discipline in their
navy? In the American navy no man can be flogged
save by the sentence of a court-martial, and the Ame-
rican navy may challenge a comparison with any in
the universe. Nay, many of our own best and most
skilful sailors have sought and obtained employment
in their service ; and why ? because there is a security
for the well-disposed man, who will perform
his duty fairly and truly. There must
be at least the form of a trial, and an
opportunity afforded of being heard in his own
defence, before he is degraded. We trust that these
considerations will not be lost on the Legislature and
the country, but that a loud and earnest demand for
justice to our army and navy will produce the total
and entire abolition of the cat.

"Delenda est Carthago."

The lash, with all its degrading incidents, must be
banished from both branches of our service.

Letters from Alexandria announce that MEHEMET
ALE, accompanied by his son-in-law, Kern', PAc as
and his grandson MUSTAPHA BEY, sailed from that port
on the 9th instant, on board the Turkish steamer Esseri
Djedid, for Constantinople. His grandson Autus
PACHA, was to administer the Government until the
return of IBRAHIM PACRA.

It is said that the Bey of Turns intends to insti.
tute a Council of State, to advise in all civil, corm
mercial, and criminal matters.

Intelligence has been received from Constantinople
of the 6th. Sir STRATFORD CANNING had remon-
strated very seriously with the Porte on the con-
duct of the authorities at Smyrna, who had denied
the British Consul justice against the murderers of
Sir LAURENCE JONES, by refusing to take the evi-
dence of the witnesses to the murder, who were
Christians, against the murderers, who were Turks.
The Porte assured Sir STRATFORD CANNING that
full justice should be done, and that the testimony of
the Christian witnesses should be taken.

The Nurcmburg Correspondent states that the
brother of M. METENDORFF has been entrusted with
a mission to negotiate a treaty of commerce between
France and Russia, and is about to proceed to Paris
for that purpose.

We extract the following from the Augsburg
Gazelle

" It has been latterly reported that the King intended to
effect great political reforms, but such is not the case. His
Majesty merely proposes to reform certain branches .of the
administration. Counts Ferri and Bandelli' and other dis•
contented parties, have been dismissed from and
the army,
the famous D'Are having been ordered to quit the kingdom,
the uneasiness felt on the one band, and the exaggerated
hopes entertained on the oilier, will be removed." -
The Danish journals of the 11th inst. contain an
important declaration of the King of DENMARK on the
subject of the succession, which has been for so long
a time in agitation. His MAJESTY declares that the
rights of the Crown over the Duchy of Lanenbourg
are incontestible. As to the Sleswig doubt is no
longer possible, and the KING brings forward
in proof the act of August 22, 1721, the guaran-
tees given by England and France on June 14 and
23, 1721, and the treaties concluded with Russia
on April 22, 1767, and June 1, 1773. The KING is
far from being so explicit on the subject of Holstein.
He admits that there are circumstances which pre-
vent his declaring himself so positively. He reserves
to himself to give an opinion at a future period, but
promises that the privileges of the Duchies of Sleswig
and of Holstein shall be respected.

Madrid papers of the 15th have been received.

The Herald", the organ of NARVAEZ, has an
article on the QUEEN'S marriage, recommending that
the future husband of the QTJEEN should be a Spa-
nish Prince, with liberal ideas. This must
allude to Don ENRIQUE, whose claims have
hitherto been strenuously opposed by NARVAII

Don ENRIQUE has left Brussels for Liege. During
his stay at Brussels he received every attention from
the Royal Family, and was visited by the POPE'S
Nuncio and by the Sardinian Envoy. It is said that
the KING of the FRENCH is not disinclined to support
the pretensions of Don ENRIQUE.

These papers publish news from Portugal, an-
nouncing that a'pronunciamiento had taken place at
Coimbra against the PALMELLA Ministry,
The Civic Guards of the various Portuguese towns
are about to be considerably augmented.

'`here W&s almost a panic in the Share Market on
Monday, caused by the intelligence that a portion of
the unfinished Orleans and Vierzon Railroad, near
Orleans, had sunk on Saturday night. No lives were
lost in consequence of the accidentk but it will retard
the opening of the line considerably.

Intelligence Ort-t; death of Lord WILLIAM RUSSELL
was, it is understood, received in town this morning.
This melancholy event will, of course, cause the tempo-
rary retirement of Lord JOIIN RUKIEL4 from his official
duties.

As there is much speculation afloat respecting the
degree of support which the Ministerial Sugar Scheme is
likely to receive, we have good reason for informing our
readers that Sir Robert Peel intends to strengthen the
hands of the Government, with regard to the
main features of their proposition. This will be
in accordance with the assurance he conveyed in
his retiring address from office, and though in
taking this course he may not have the sup-
port of one or two of his late colleagues, yet the broad
intellect, high character, - and merited influence of Sir
IL Peel will materially stimulate the Ministerial hopes
of success. We rejoice to think that the Cabinet are
likely to be thus ably seconded.

MONEY and COLVILIVIERCIAL NEWS,
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton market at Liverpool, yesterday, was firm, sales
4,000 bales. Shares were much the same.

The further intelligence received to-day from India con-
firms to the fullest extent what has already been stated
under this head as to the dullness of the markets, and the
adequate supply to meet the wants of our Asiatic consumers
for some time to come.

The Montezuma line of packet ship furnishes news of the
2d inst. from New York, which is of interest, chiefly in
regard to the statement of affairs in Mexico. We confess
that it is difficult to arrive at a conclusion as to the result of
the difficulties between this republic and the United States,
though, from the factions existing in Mexico, an entire sub-
version of the present order of things, and an abject submis-
sion to the Washington Cabinet, seems almost inevitable.
The avoidance of such a dlnouement must be the result of
chance, not patriotism or strength, for even a foreign inva-
sion has failed to impart either.
There are accounts to July 2 from New York. The Cabi-
net of President Polk seems likely to remain without further
changes of any interest during the present sitting of Con-
gress. The commerce of New York was, upon the whole,
in a satisfactory state. From Canada there are favourable
reports of the growing crops. The colonists anticipate,
seemingly, much more harm from free-trade measures than
is ever likely even to threaten them, as a short experience,
it may be trusted, will serve to prove.
The discount market has been steady, and there does not
seem to be a probability of money becoming cheaper, for the
present at least, seeing that the rate of interest is yet much
lower than in some of the large continental cities.
The public securities have been rather flatter to-day.
Consols for present transfer have been 951/ %, and for
time 96% :34. This is about % per cent. lower-than yester-
day. he premium on Exchequer-bills has been 10s. to 145.,
and on East India Bonds, under 1,0004 255. Bank Stock has
been marked 208. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per
Cents. have realised 9714 to %.
There has been no increase of business in the Foreign
market, and the transactions have been generally at previous
rates. Mexican are not quite so good, being 261,4. Spanish
Five per Cents. have realised 24% to 24%, and the Passive
5% %. Brazil Stock has been quoted 85 ; French Five per
Cents. are 121, with the exchange at 25f. 80c.
There has been very little done in Railway Shares.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.

The supply of Wheat on sale to-day being somewhat more than
equal to the wants of the dealers, and the weather very favourable
far the crops, the trade with all kinds of Wheat of home produce was
heavy, at barely Monday's reduced currencies. In Foreign Wheat
So little Was doing:that the quotations were almost nominal. To sell,
a further reduction in value of Is per quarter must have been
submitted to. Grinding Barley, and the best pale Malt were
quite as dear, but other kinds were much neglected. In Oats
only a limited business was doing, at itt some instances, a further
decline in value of 6d per quarter: Deans, Peas, and Flour, as last
sydvise4.

CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
The Lord Chancellor sat in Lincoln's Inn-hall to-day
shortly after ten o'clock.

THE LONG VACATION.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, upon taking his seat, stated that
he found it had been usual of late for the Court to rise for the
long vacation at an earlier day than when he last sat in that
Court, and when the state of business justified it, his Lord-
ship did not see why the course he had formerly adopted
should be departed from, but as for this year it might be in-
convenient to alter an arrangement previously made, his
Lordship would adhere to the day that had been previously
fixed—namely, the last day of the present month, after which
day his Lordship did not intend to sit.
The Court then proceeded to hear lunatic petitions and
appeals.

othing of any interest occurred in any of the other Equity
Courts, all of which, it is understood, will rise on the 31st,
and not sit again till the first day of Michaelmas Term.

RAILWAY COMMITTEES.

(THIS DAY).

HOUSE OF LORDS.
Room A.
4s.
The members of this Committee re-assembled this day at eleven
o'clock.

scheme, and of the proceedings with reference to this and
the competing heme in the House of Commons. The
Learned CounseN also dwelt at some length upon the nature
and objects of the several petitions against the Bill.
The London and Birmingham Company petitioned on
the ground that by a junction with them at Birmingham, they would
injure their property, and endanger the lives of passengers. Now
the junction was to be made in pursuance of an agreement be-
tween the promoters of this Bill (the Great Western Company), and
the; Grand Junction Company, before the amalgamation of the latter
with the London and Birmingham Company, and which they
(the Grand junction) had called on the promoters to fulfil, since that
amalgamation, lie thought their Lordships would agree with him
when he said that it was highly unfair, that while the junior parties
in a firm were insisting on compliance with a contract,
the senior parties should make it a ground of opposition.
The re mainingpart of the Learned Counsel's speech referred prin-
cipally to the question of the propriety, or rather necessity, of a
system of railways through this district, independent of, and to some
extent competing with, the London and Birmingham line; the argu-
ments on this point have beer► given at such length in the columns
of The Sun during the proceedings in the Committee of the Com-
mons on Group 33, that it is unnecessary to reiterate them here.
Mr. W. Matthews, a magistrate in Warwickshire, and
member of the Corporation of Birmingham, gave evidence as to the
necessity of a line through this district, independant of the London
and Birmingham, This witness's evidence was confined to the
necessity for its being distinct from the London and Birmingham
Company, as their Lordships had expressed their opinion that the
necessity for better communication, being admitted on both sides,
was not a matter requiring proof.
