" THE STEAM SHIP PACIFIC.

"No tidings have yet been heard from this anxiously-
expected vessel. The probability is that she has put back
to England or been driven to the southwirl, whence she
will be heard front in a short time. Mr. Collins, on the
26th ult. in answer to a letter of Mr. D. D. Erving, of
Hartf.,.)rd, Connecticut, stated that he had no apprehen-
sions for the Pacific's safety, but thought some accident
had happened to her machinery, and she had put back.
Ho did not thiuk she was in the ice, as the steamers of
the line hive frequently been in and come out without
sustaining any serious damage. Mr. Erving is brother to
A. Erving, Esq., Secretary of Legation to St. Petersburg,
who took passage for this port in the Pacific."

The Boston Evening Transeript says :
" Captaia 'Wickham, of the America, is of opinion that
the steamer seen from his vessel, in the English Channel,
was the Fulton, from New York, Fob. 8, rather than the
Pacific."

THE LATE TR RHATENLNG OF RZR
MAJESTY BY A MANIAC.

In our paper of Saturday last we gave an account
of the visit of Mr. Jardine, secretary to the Trea-
sury, and Sergeant Lockyer, of the detective police,
to St. Alban's, for the purpose of making inquiries
respecting a Mr. C. Parker, a gentleman well known
in the town, and who was until lately regarded as
an extremely harmless although eccentric man.
The facts of the case, however, must be fresh in the
recollection of our readers. Mr. Parker, as we
have previously stated, addressed several letters to
the Queen, in which he held out some very strong
threats on her Majesty's person. Of the last of
these letters, however, we have just learned the
contents. It runs as follows :

" George-street, St. Alban's, March 4, 1856.
" Queen,—l informed you in several letters, some time
since, that I was the Prophet Elijah, and that God. in.
tended to confer upon me unlimited wealth and absolute
power, and commanded all persons to pray that he would
confer such things immediately upon me, and for the im-
mediate fulfilment of the 18th chapter Revelations, and Ist
verse.

" I alsoNvrote you that God intended to make me King
above, or superior to you, and requiring you to submit
yourself to me, to which you sent a rurial answer of re-
fusal.

" I now write to inform you that Gad has instructed
me to compel you to submit to me, by the seizure of your
person, for the purpose of punishment. I also write to
caution you that I shall consider you responsible for the
acts of your servrnts, as well as them.

" C. PARKER."

Mr. Parker, it further appears, was a member of
the St. Alban's Literary Institute, and was in con-
stant attendance, and had frequently taken part
in any discussion that took place.

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna of the 13th, in Toss's
Gazette, says—" It is positively asserted here that
the question of the admission of Prussia to the
Congress led to the most serious debates in the
previous sittings, Count Buol and Count Orloff
having both received instructions from their re-
spective Courts to urge the necessity of her admis-
sion in the interests of Europe. Prussia's readiness
to accept bad been previously ascertained ; and
she had the more willingly consented that matters
had assumed a most pacific turn since the third or
fourth sitting. France had already declared on a
previous occasion, both at Vienna and Berlin, that,
far from opposing the admission of Prussia, she
would view it with satisfaction. England was
obliged to yield to the representations of Count
Orloff and Count Buol."

EAST INDIA COMPANY—(This Day.)

The ordinary quarterly court of the proprietors was
held this morning at the East India House, Leadenhall•
street ; Mr. Macnaughten in the chair.

Mr. LEwrx postponed his motion relative to the ap-
pointment of a committee to the obtaining a more
suitable governing body for India than at present
existed.

Mr. JONES brought under the notice of the Court the
case of the late General Sir John Maccaskill, relative
to the amount of remuneration to which he was entitled
to, for his services in Affzhauistan and Cabul, where he
was appointed to a brigade by General Sir George
Pollock, and a divisional commander. Lord Auckland,
when Governor-General of India, was in favoar of the
deceased being paid the full amount of pay to which
commanders of divisions were entitled, but Lord Ellen-
borough had decided that the pay should only be that of
a brigadier of the second class. He moved that the
documents connected with the subject of Majer•General
Sir John Maccaskill's claim (belonging to the home de-
partment) be brought into Court, and that they be
printed.
Mr. LEwIN seconded the motion, which was negatived
after a few remarks from the Chair:nap.
The meeting then adjourned.

RUSSIA►.

A letter from St. Petersburg of the 7th, in the
Cologne Gazette, says :—" The arrival of the rem.
nants of the Black Sea fleet has given rise to nume-
rous ovations. It is confirmed that these men are
destined to replace those who are about to receive
their dismissal in the Baltic fleet. It will be seen
by the arrival of the 13 crews from Sebastopol that
the idea of re-establishing the Black Sea fleet has
been abandoned. These men are directed on He:-
singfors, Cronstadt, and Revel, where they will be
incorporated in the three divisions of the fleet."

THE STEAM-SHIP PACIFIC.

Up to the period when the Asia sailed from New
York, on the sth inst., nothing had transpired as
to the fate of the United States steam-ship Pacific.
The most gloomy conjectures everywhere found
ready listeners in reference to this vessel ; still,
parties are not wanting who cherish and express a
hope of her ultimate safety. On this subject the
IVew York Sun, of the sth March, has the follow-

this day.

The arrangements for the forthcoming season of
the Royal Italian Opera have at length been defini-
tively settled. Mr. Gye, after much anxious con-
sideration and fruitless attempts to obtain posses-
sion of her Majesty's Theatre and Drury-lane, has
taken the Lyceum for a term ; and to this small
theatre, built for the purposes of English opera,
and of late dedicated to burlesque, the great artistes
of the Italian stage will be confined during the
present season in London. The house is already
in the hands of the workmen, and before the close
of the holidays the interior will be converted into
the most perfect little bijou imaginable. The pit
will afford room for 200 stalls and 200 pit seats,
and the two tiers of the house will be subdivided
into about 60 boxes. On the question of remune-
rative profit there can scarcely be two opinions.
Mr. Gye and his co-partners cannot hope to realise
from this theatre sufficient to pay the current ex-
penses of the year, but much will be accomplished
if they succeed in keeping together a company of
artistes unequalled in Europe ; and before another
year has elapsed perhaps a theatre worthy of Lon-
don and of the present age may be erected on a
site more convenient of access than either of the
existing patent houses. An estimate of Mr. Gye's
loss by the fire has been prepared by the sur-
veyors of the Phoenix Fire-office. It amounts to
32,7401., the office being responsible for only 8,0001.
This loss and the insurance upon it are exclusively
Mr. Gye's, and do not attach to his partners in
the lesseelip.

guments, drawn not from its inspiring motive, but
from sources likely to be satisfactory to the public.
Like Mr. BRIGHT arguing for peace when his
Quaker principles were the unconscious motive,
but commerce and humanity " the pinions which
impelled the steel." The High-Church party did
not avow its intense concern that the Church
Catechism and baptismal regeneration should be
the keystone of any educational system. The
Protestant Dissenters did not put forward their
invincible repugnance to such early indoctrination
with views which they denounce as the essence of
Popery ; nor the Secular Educationists their pre-
dominant wish, first to exclude the dominancy of
priests of all denominations; and next, and chiefly,
to secure for the populace an education in secular
knowledge which should give our operatives, and
their masters too, a fair chance beside those of
America and France. We are not now sitting in
judgment on the value of these unavowed, but,
to the parties, favourite objects. We only note
that all would do well to speak out more frankly,
and to discuss how much of their aims were com-
mon to all—for that must be the ground of

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

"We receive," says the Debats, " a letter from
Jassy, which contains a summary of the measures
decided on in the conferences of Constantinople for
the re-organisation of Moldo-Wallachia. The prin-
cipal points are these :

" A. Mold°. Wallachian commission shall be convoked
at Constantinople to prepare a new system of legislation,
identical for the two principalities, under the surveillance
of the Porte. The same commission shall draw up a plan
for the constitution of a Senate, composed of the first per-
sons of the country, the General Assembly being abolished.
Immediately after the re-establishment of peace, the
reigning princes shall be replaced by a caimacamy (or
local government), named by the Porte, which shall
administer the country in concert with a Turkish com-
missioner V), the moment of their definitive organisation.
The Senate shall be constituted under their surveillance.
The same caimacamy shall also superintend the selection
of three candidates for the principality effected amongst
the great families of the country. The two princes shall
be elected by the Porte amongst the above-mentioned
candidates ; they shall be nominated for life, and shall
only be liable to dismissal for high treason. Seeing that
the provinces of Moldavia and Wallachia form an integral
part of the Ottoman empire, all measures of public
utility, commerce, and manufactures, which shall be
adopted for the other states of the Sultan, shall also
apply to those provinces."
Prince Ghika, on receiving communication of
these measures, immediately sent to the conferences
at Paris a protest against all that had been done at
Constantinople, and a demand that the two Princi-
palities should be united. It is asserted also, that
a protest has been drawn up and signed by the
boyards, and that the prince will send it to Paris
by a deputation selected from that body."

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

"We receive," says the Debats, " a letter from
Jassy, which contains a summary of the measures
decided on in the conferences of Constantinople for
the re-organisation of Moldo-Wallachia. The prin-
cipal points are these :
" A. Moldo•Wallachian commission shall be convoked
at Constantinople to prepare a new system of legislation,
identical for the two principalitieg, under the surveillance
of the Porte. The same commission shall draw up a plan
for the constitution of a Senate, composed of the first per-
sons of the country, the General Assembly being:Abolished.
Immediately after the re-establishment of peace, the
reigning princes shall be replaced by a caimacamy (or
local government), named by the Porte, which shall
administer the country in concert with a Turkish com-
missioner to the moment of their definitive organisation.
The Senate shall be constituted under their surveillance.
The same caimacamy shall also superintend the selection
of three candidates for the principality effected amongst
the great families of the country. The two princes shall
be elected by the Porte amongst the above-mentioned
candidates ; they shall be nominated for life, and shall
only be liable to dismissal for high treason. Seeing that
the provinces of Moldavia and Wallachia form an integral
part of the Ottoman empire, all measures of public
utility, commerce, and manufactures, which shall be
adopted for the other states of the Sultan, shall also
apply to those provinces."

Prince Ghika, on receiving communication of
these measures, immediately sent to the conferences
at Paris a protest against all that had been done at
Constantinople, and a demand that the two Princi-
palities should be united. It is asserted also, that
a protest has been drawn up and signed by the
boyards, and that the prince will send it to Paris
by a deputation selected from that body."

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna of the 13th, in Toss's
Gazette, says—" It is positively asserted hero that
the question of the admission of Prussia to the
Congress led to the most serious debates in the
previous sittings, Count Buol and Count Orloff
having both received instructions from their re-
spective Courts to urge the necessity of her admis-
sion in the interests of Europe. Prussia's readiness
to accept had been previously ascertained ; and
she had the more willingly consented that matters
had assumed a most pacific turn since the third or
fourth sitting. France had already declared on a
previous occasion, both at Vienna and Berlin, that,
far from opposing the admission of Prussia, she
would view it with satisfaction. England was
obliged to yield to the representations of Count
Orloff and Count Buol."

Mr. Linklatex appeared for the bankrupts.
Mr. Baddeley, for the assignees, had no objection to
the bankrupts passing, as the accounts were satisfactory.
The bankrupts accordingly passed.
IN RE DICKENSON.

This bankrupt was deseribei as residing near
Portsmouth, dealer in artificial manure, and applied for
his certificate.

Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, did not object to the
bankrupt having an immediate certificate of the second

class.

Granted accordingly.
IN RE WM. UNDERWOOD.

This bankrupt was described as of Frith•street, Suho,

tailor, surviving partner of Edward Bradford (deceased),
carrying on business at Faith-street, and Melbourne,
South Australia.

The balance sheet, prepared by Mr. J. D. Fowell, Das-
inghall-street, shows surplus June, 1855 : 218/. 33. 11d.;
debtor to creditors, 3,1341.; do. holding security, 3411. ;
profits, 3541. 165.; creditor, good debts, 6911.; doubtful,
47/. ; property, 70/. ; consignments to Australia, 1,444/. ;
losses, 438/. ; interest and discount, 2091. ; law costs,
1261. ; trade expenses, 6351,

The failure was attributed to no return having been
ri had of the consignments, Bradford baying gone out to
Australia, and it has since been ascertained that ho is
dead.
91 90 The bankrupt passed.

CRIMINAL COURT.—(Thin Day.)

(Before Mr. Justice Williams and Mr. Baron Bramwell.
London, England, 1856-09-17

SWITZERLAND.

The Bund, a Swiss paper, says :—" We are sur-
prised to read in various Swiss papers that the
Federal Council does not think Art. 37 of the
Federal Penal Codo applicable to the insurgents of
Neufchatel, and that it will not therefore prosecute
them as guilty of high treason against the Confe-
deration, but only against the canton of Neufcha-
tel. - Arta 37 says : ' The same punishment (im-
prisonment for ten years or more) is incurred by
any citizen or inhabitant of Switzerland who shall
attempt to subject the Confederation, or any por-
tion thereof, to the sovereignty of a foreign power,
or to detach therefrom a canton or a part of a can-
ton c.' We believe this article to be perfectly
applicable to the crime committed at Neufchatel."

The Council of State of Neufchatel has extended
by ten days the period for the payment of com-
mercial bills which fall due during the first three
weeks of September. The cause of this measure is
that, in consequence of the check given to busi-
ness by the late outbreak, several solvent trades-
men have found it impossible to meet their
engagements. The Neufchatelois, the organ
of the moderate royalists, has resumed its publica-
tion, which had been suspended during the early
part of the month. It has been permitted to reap-
pear on condition of containing no leading article.
The above journal states that, according to the
declaration, of Col. de Pourtales during the first
days of his captivity, he was on the point of sign-
ing the surrender of the castle at the very moment
when it was attacked and taken by the republi-
cans, and, that an officer had even received orders
to go- with a flag of truce to make the proposition.
What became of the officer and of the flag no one
knows, for nothing of the kind was seen by those
who made the attack.

MAILS FOR A USTRA LTA.

The European and Australian Royal Mail Company
being about to despatch four of their steam-vessels to
Australia, to take up the regular service of the Aus-
tralian mails, under their contract with her Ma-
jesty's Government, the Postmasteregeneral intends
to avail himself of the departure of those steamers for
the transmission of the mails to Australia, instead of
sending the mails by sailing packets, as provisionally
arranged ; and a contract for this service has been made
with the Company.
Accordingly, the present service of the Australian
mails by sailing packets will cease after the departure of
the packet appointed to leave Liverpool on the sth Oc-
tober next ; and thenceforward, up to the month of
January, the mails will be made up in London, and
despatched, by day mail, on the following dates, viz.:--
On the 18th October,
„ 12th November,
„ 12th December,
' , 12th January,
for conveyance by the European and Australian Com-
pany's packets from Southampton, via the Cape of
Good Hope.
These packets will proceed to Melbourne and Sydney
only, but they will carry mails for all the Australian
Colonies. All letters, newspapers, &c., for New South
Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasminia, and New
Zealand, posted atter the sth October next, will be
forwarded by these packets, when not addressed to be
otherwise sent, but letters, &c. for Western Australia,
will continue to be sent, as a rale, by private ship, direct,
and will be transmitted by these packets only when
specially so addressed.

ITALY.

The Duchess of Parma and her family returned
to the capital of that duchy on the 11th.
The Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian arrived at
Venice on the 10th from Trieste. _ .

. _
A letter from Florence, complaining of the heavy
taxation existing in Tuscany at the present moment,
says :—"ln 1854 the land-tax produced 4,320,000£;
it is now 5,000,000 f. The pension list is enormous,
because many persons in the full vigour of life have
been removed from office on account of their politi-
cal tendencies. The total budget for 1856 amounts
to 31,217,760 f. for receipts, the expenses being
about the same. Of this sum the home department
absorbs 2,268,084 f. ; justice, 2,916,284 f. ; war,
6,838,534 f. ; foreign affairs, 206,304 f. ; publio
instruction, i708,960f. ; finance, 11,061,596 f. In
1852, the public debt amounted to 61 millions of
francs—it is now 78 millions, and the sinking fund
has had to be made available to meet the increase
of interest. The total cost of the Austrian oc-
cupation from 1849 to its cessation was about
12,000,000 f."
A letter from Rome of the 11th, in the Debats,
says :—" The Pope will hold a consistory on the
18th. Cardinal Viale Prela, who was nominated
in the last consistory, but who has not yet received
the hat and the other insignia of his dignity, will
then be invested with them. A good deal has
been said in the foreign press about the departure
of the French troops, or of diminishing their num-
ber, which already scarcely attains 5,000. But on
reflecting all the signs that present themselves,
it is more probable that they will rather be
slightly augmented than diminished, and at all
events there is nothing to indicate that they are to
be shortly sent away. The Roman artillery has
for some time past guarded the coasts ; and lately
isolated posts have been reinforced, in consequence
of suspicious vessels having been seen at sea—a
circumstance which has caused a landing of the
partisans of Mazzini to be feared."
A letter from Naples of the Bth, in the Constitu-
tionnel, says :—" Baron de Hubner arrived here
two days ago, and was present yesterday at the
fete of Pie di Grotta. As a matter of course, his
arrival here has given rise to various comments.
His Excellency has not yet been received by the
King."
Together with the arrival of M. Hubner the order
for the renewal of the political trials, which have
been suspended during the summer, has been
issued.

There was a slight hearing of the Mignonna case
on Saturday last, two witnesses having been ex-
amined ; but the appointed day is Monday, the
15th.
