THE NAVIGATION LAWS.

A. public meeting of seamen, relative to the navi•
gation laws, took place on Saturday evening, in the
Eastern Institution, Commercial-road, when more
than 2,000 seamen were present. Lieutenant Smith,
R.N., was called to the chair.
Mr. JAMES MATHER proposed and Mr. TUCKER
seconded the following resolution :—" That this meet-
ing perceives with surprise and indignation the at-
tempt., new making to repeal the navigation laws, for
the avowed purpose of substituting foreign ships and
foreign seamen for British ships and British seamen
in the merchant service, which will eventually reduce
their wages and living to the level of the worst paid
and coarsest fed seamen in the world, and will termi-
nate in driving British seamen from the service of
their country into that of another state."
The resolution was received with tremendous
cheering, and unanimously agreed to.
Mr. DUNN, delegate from Sunderland, next moved
and Captain SCOTLAND seconded the following re•
solution :—" That this meeting recommends that
the seamen of Great Britain, in this serious
emergency, present their case at the foot of the
throne, imploring her Majesty not to allow British
seamen to be reduced to the most degraded condi-
tion by the repeal of the navigation-laws, nor to
subject the throne and the country to the dangers
which would surround them by the substitution of
foreign seamen for the British seamen that now so
loyally guard them ; and that the memorial of the
committee of delegates just read be adopted by this
meeting, and transmitted to the Secretary of State
for presentation to her Majesty."
This resolution was also unanimously agreed to.
Mr. MATHER then proposed the following resolu-
tion, which was seconded by a gentleman on the
platform, and unanimously adopted :—" Resolved,
That this meeting, upon Wednesday next, the gth
February, will proceed in their boats to Westminster,
each boat bearing the union flag of England, to
deliver the memorial for her Majesty to the Secretary
of State in Downing street;- that on this occasion, so
vital to the interests and very existence of British
seamen, every ship's crew in port is invited to take
part in the procession, and sustain by their presence
their loyal and urgent representations to her
Majesty.
The Committee of Seamen's Delegates were re-
quested to issue the necessary instructions and make
the proper arrangements at the earliest moment.
The meeting then separated.

ROYAL HORSE ARTILLIRY.--.-WOOLWICII, Feb. 5.
A number of smart young men (recruits), who have
recently joined at head-quarters, have been placed under
instruction to qualify them for the Royal Horse Artillery
branck of the service, it beinglintended to add 15 gunners
and four drivers, with two guns and 25 horses, to each
of the seven troops in April next. This augmentation
will not add any expense to the present staff of the corps,
while it will render the troops more efficient in men and

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

Her Alnjesty's steamer Polyphemus left Gibraltar
Bay for Tangiers at 10 A.M., on the 26th of January,
towing the ship llerefordshire, bound to Barbadoes,
with the 66th Regiment on board.
The Peninsular Company's steamer Hindostan ar-
rived at 8 30 A:M. of the same day, and sailed for
Malta and Alexandria with the Indian mails at 2 P.M.

The Magellan, 14 guns, five days from Toulon,
bound to the river Plate, arrived at Cadiz on the 27th ;
she was to sail in a few days with the new French
Ministers for Rio La Plata.

Her Majesty's ships at Lisbon on the 30th of
January were—St. Vincent, Queen, Howe, and
Canopus ; Amphion (screw frigate) ; steamers—Ter-
rible, Dragon, Scourge, and Jackal!; French frigate
Psyche, and a steamer; Spanish corvette Venus, and
the usual Portuguese squadron.
PORTSMOUTH, Fan. 6.—The Excellent gunnery
ship, Captain Chada, C. 8., at present hearing the flag
of Rear-Admiral Henry Prescott, C. 8., Superin-
tendent of the Dockyard, completed her complement
(700) last week, a circumstance never accomplished
before since the Excellent was established, and at no
other period have there been so many officers of all
ranks, and seaman, on board. When it is considered
that most of the Excellent's hands are petty officers,
and all must be at least " A.B.'s," the fact of her
complement being completed speaks very much for
the increasing popularity of the establishment, as she
might at any time ha re made up the requisite number
of men by taking any sort of volunteers, and by not
being particular in the selection. It will be very
much against the interest of the service if the comple-
ment of the gunnery establishment is limited, as there
is no doubt that the efficiency of every ship commis-
sioned would be very much increased by a larger num-
ber of seamen gunners being sent to them from the Ex-
cellent than at present, which would not only give them
more men fit for captains of guns, but al.o aid them
very much in fitting the ship out. The Excellent,
of course, could not accommodate many more, nor
would there be room enough for them to exercise,
but there is no reason why there should not be
branch establishments at the ports to the eastward
and westward which could receive men belonging to
those ports. By increasing the gunnery establish-
ments the Admiralty would be providing the best
foundation for the " national defence."

Tna WEATITEa.—For the last two or three days
the wind has been south, and there have been several
falls of rain. On Saturday the mercury had by eleven
o'clock risen as high as 3 degrees, and in the course of
the afternoon it was several degrees higher ; but last
evening it was again down to 40 degrees, ssith the wind
still south. Throughout the day the atmosphere was
close and humid, the temperature being higher than is
frequently experienced in the metropolis in the month of
May. Alreadyi
there has been a considerable retu;:;
influenza,o
and it sto be feared the return of mortality
during the week will exhibit a considerable increase.
Tun IVEATHER.—During the last week the naviga-
tion of the Trent was much impeded by the ice which
floated down. On Saturday the Hull steamer did not
leave Gainaborough in consequence. On Sunday we had
a thaw accompanied by rain, which re-opened the navi-
gation,---Hull Advertistr.

EXTRAORDINARY EXPLOSION IN WORSHIP-STREET.
—Yesterday forenoon, between eleven and twelve o'clock,
great excitement was occasioned in the neighbourhood
of the Curtain-road and Worship-street, by an explosion
of gas, which took place in the Gas Company's Works
situate at the corner of the Curtain-road, and blew the
upper windows out of one of the compartments in the
yard, at the same time making a noise like the discharge
of a piece of ordnance, and shaking the houses in the
immediate district to their foundations. The windows
in three or four houses in Curtain-road were shattered,
and two or three panes were demolished in the chapel
opposite the factory. The congregation in the latter
building were greatly terrified, and made a precipitate
retreat into the street. Although several men were in
the yard near the spot when the explosion occurred, it
is stated that not one received any personal injury.
STATE OF TRADII.—The improvement perceptible
a few days ago continues and strengthens, notwith-
standing the unexpected stoppage of payment by the
long established and important firm of Jevons, Sons,
and Co.. an event much regretted on all hands. Demand
and prices (generally) are still more encouraging, and
in bona fide transactions of business bills are once more
freely discounted. It is now expected that the retail
trades will begin shortly to feel the benefit of a brisker
circulation of money, which, indeed, is much to be de-
sired.—Liverpool Mercury.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FED. 4.—The sales of
the week have not been extensive, and the supplies have
been but limited; prices have been further improved
Is. 6d. per cwt., and the deliveries continue satisfactory.

The reports on the following Bills were considered and

LEEDS AND THIRSK RAILWAY.

On the question for the consideration of the report on
the Leeds and Thirst:- Railway (Branch from Melnaerby
to Northallerton and Junction with York and Newcastlr,

Mr. HUDSON objected to the further consideration
of the reporr, the course which had been adopted by
the company b,,ing contrary to the resolutions of the

that the report should be considered that day three
mouths.

LO N AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY
London, England, 1848-06-07

Mr. Todd said the object of his client was to prevent
the Chartists who assembled on his premises from meet-
ing there. Mr. Salter was rather peculiarly situated.
The gentleman from whom he had taken the house had
accepted as tenants of the room in question two persons,
who disposed of it just as they pleased, and meetings
were in consequence of that arrangement held there.
Fortunately, at the end of a month, the engagement
would terminate. In the interval, however, it was the
anxious wish of Mr. Salter that his house should not be
the scene of any illegal or unconstitutional proceedings,
and for the purpose of preventing anything of the kind,
he considered it to be necessary to make application to
the Lord Mayor, or to any magistrate who should re-
present his Lordship.
Alderman Finnis referred the applicant to the Corn
missioner of the City Police, who would, he had no
doubt, make such regulations as would relieve Mr. Salter
from the annoyance. fie thought there would be very
little difficulty in dealing with the case, as seditious lan-
guage was used in the place.
GUILDHALL.

A foreigner, named Horne Frederick Kohn, was again
brought up before Alderman Gibbs on the charge of
uttering a forged bill of exchange for 210/., at the bank-
ing-house of Messrs. Hoare and Co., in Fleet-street.
The evidence taken on this occasion threw no addi-
tional light on the subject; the defence of the prisoner
being that ho had received the bill from as elderly man
who came into a coffee-shop in New-street, Cov.ent-
garden, and who asked him to go ,to the bank to get
cash for the bill.

Alderman GIBBS told the prisoner he had paced him-
self in a very awkward situation, and therefore he must
still be treated as the utterer of a forged document,
unless he could find the man from whom he received the
bill. However he would take bail, himself i❑ 801., and
one surety of 401., to appear and answer the charge.

The proposition of tie Committee could only serve to
favour stock-jobbing.
The question was then put to the vote as to which

One trial was d9uhtlul, and another was on the point
of taking place when post hour arrived.
It seemed so cloe a thing that a division will pro-

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE.
GERMAN NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

The Assembly met at nine.
Ostcndorf (of Sues) asked why the Prussian troops
were being withdrawn from Jutland and Schleswig.
A Vast number of intended motions and petitions also
were read. Among the latter was one from the inha-
bitants of Schleswig Holstein, praying for the protec-
tion of the Assembly, accompanied by a motion made
by the Holstein deputies to snake the affair a matter of
German interference. Much was talked about the
German marine, and contributions towards its establish-
ment was ancounced.

Bossier gave a summary of his intended motion to-
wards affOrding special protection to the members of the
Assembly; this was referred to one of the Committees
of priority.

iNlitterMaier gave in a report from the Central Com-
mittee of Election, concerning a protust made by the
people of Posen against the members elected there.
The Committee declared the elections to be legitimate.
The National Assembly, however, might defer its de-
cision till it had been determined that the Grand Duchy
of Posen is rightfully admitted into the German Con.
federation.

The Committee of Priority moved for a Special Com-
mission being appointed to deliberate on tea different
motions, by which the erection of a grand executive
power was suggested. The urgency of the case was
dilated upon by Simons (of Triers). After a short
debate as to which Committee the matter should be
referred to, it was decided that it should be referred to
a Special Commission to be chosen from the respective
divisions." This was the grand point in the day's
proceedings."

CALLS TO THE BAR IN IRELAND.
Mr. SADLEIO, wished to know from the Noble Lord
at the head of the Government whether he had
received any information from Ireland to the
effect that two gentlemen had been refused
admission to Queen's Inn, and that that refusal had re-
ceived the sanction of the Lord Chancellor of Ireland.
Lord J. RUSSELL said that he had seen an account
in the newspapers that such an event had taken place,
but he had received no official communication upon the
subject.

COUNTY COURTS.
Captain BERKELEY, seeing the Right Hon. Baronet
the Secretary of State for the Houle Department in his
place, wished to, put a question to him in reference
to the County Courts Act. It appeared that since
the establishments of these Courts, a sum of upwards of
600,000/. had been received by the treasurers, but of
which only 345,1201. had reached the suitors. This
was a state of things that demanded inarne hate atten-
tion.
Sir G. GREY said that the fees payable in county
courts were under revi,eion, sv,th a view to make alb ra-
tions; and had a notice of vie question been given, he
would have been prepared to state what redletions w(re
contemplated.

Very moderate supplies of country-killed meat have
arrived up to these markets in the past week, viz., about
160 carcasses of Beef. 400 ditto of Mutton, 120 ditto of
Lamb, 140 ditto of Veal, and 400 ditto of Pork. In
these returns are included the Scotch arrivals. With
meat slaughtered in the metropolis, we have been well
supplied, with the exception of mutton. On the whole,
the demand has been in a very sluggish state, and, in
some instances, the quotations have declined 2d. per 81bs.
About 300 carcasses of foreign meat, killed in London,

HARIVICIL—The election of Sir John Cam Hob-
house for Harwich, on Saturday last, in opposition
to Mr. Manners Sutton, no mean opponent, and to
all the power and influence of Mr. John Attwood,
does credit to the Liberal party in that borough, and
proves that principle still holds sway with a majority
of the constituency. Sir John llobhouse having
been originally solicited to stand for the borough,
having acceded—then having withdrawn his consent,
and not only his consent, but actually having pub-
lished his address retiring from any claim to the
representation, had every disadvantage against him.
Still the electors of Harwich feeling that their own
character was at stake, and that it became them to
show that they had the will to choose, and the honesty
of purpose to elect a Liberal representative, put up
Sir John Hobhouse, and without one farthing of cost
or expenditure to him, carried him by a majority,
if not numerically large, at all events pure and un-
assailable. It is the first time that Harwich ever
returned two Liberals to Parliament, and in redeem-
ing its own character the principles of Liberal
Government have been supported in a quarter the
more to be estimated, because the more unexpected.
THE LORD MAYOR.—The Right Hon. the Lord
Mayor was absent from the Central Criminal Court
at the opening of the session this morning, in conse-
quence of having received, early this morning, a com-
munication from Sir George Grey, requesting his
immediate attendance at the Home-office, with a view,
no doubt, to consult all the Ministers as to the best
1 arrangements to be made in order to preserve the
public peace.

CHIEF CLERK OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS.—It is
now generally understood about the Houses of Par-
liament—very much to the regret of every one—that
Sir David Dundas, the late Solicitor-General, has
declined, in consequence, of the extremely delicate
state of his health, the Chief Clerkship of the House
of Lords, which was offered t) him, as we stated,
about a fortnight ago. A rumour is very current
that the brother of the Speaker of the House of
Commons is likely to receive the appointment.

FRANKFORT.

On the 30th of March was opened at Frankfort
the Congress of the Members of the Representative
Assembly, and delegates from the different German
States. Almost all the German towns, and most of
the Governments, had sent their deputies. The re-
union of this Congress produces much excitement,
indeed a sort of panic at Frankfort. Many people
have fled the town, fearing an outbreak as the result
of the discussions of the Assembly.

MILAN.

The Provisional Government of Milan has pub-
lished a proclamation, dated the 26th ult., announcing
a convention concluded with the Piedmontese Go-
vernment, in virtue of which the Piedmontese troops
will act in concert with the Milanese as their faithful
allies ; the expense of provisions is at the charge of
Milan, and the pay of the troops at that of the Sar-
dinian Government.

The people of Lombardy have made prisoners at
Brescia of an Austrian general, two colonels, sixty
officers, and 800 men, besides a large quantity of
ammunition and stores. Marshal RADETZKY, who is
at Crema with a corps d'arsnee of 20,000 men, has
commenced his retreat to concentrate his troops on
the other side of the Mincio and the Adige. King
CHARLES ALBERT, with the head-quarters of
the Piedmontese army, is still at Alexandria.
He is anxious to engage with the enemy.
He has divided his army into two divisions
of 15,000 men each. The Piedmontese ad-
vanced guard, which had entered Milan, has al-
ready left that city in pursuit of the army of Marshal
RADETZKY. 'We have received no news from Venice
