After exciting discussions producing, or relating
to, the Ministerial crisis, Parliament last night re-
turned to the common place, but very necessary duty
of arrranging the naval estimates for the coming
year. Although one of the most important subjects
that can come under the consideration of the legisla-
tive body, it is, we regret to say, generally speaking,
totally neglected by the great majority of the repre-
sentatives of the people. It would seem as if the
honourable absentees regarded it as a matter of the
most profound indifference whether, on the
one side, the public money is to be wasted in
wanton extravagance and reckless profusion, or,
on the other band, the most important branch of the
national service is to be reduced to a state of ineffi-
ciency by the summary dismissal cf the gallant sea-
men, whom it would be very easy to send adrift, but
very difficult to collect again, and bring back to a
state of discipline. The proportion of speakers is
still more attenuated—some seven or eight persons,
at the outside, take part in the debate. Three or four
insist on economy and retrenchment, and are opposed
by an equal number of officials. The First Lord of
the Admiralty, aided and assisted by the First Lord
of the Treasury, fought the battle, and succeeded in
every point. There was a small and compact band of
financial reformers, while on the other side there was
a quantum sujicit of Ministerial followers kept in the
neighbourhood ready to be " whipped in" on any divi-
sion, leave of absence being given to the remainder.
The House was last night occupied in voting some
of the items relating to the effective branch of the
service. On these points there may not be so many
differences of opinion as on others that will hereafter
arise. For instance, although as desirous as any
persons can possibly be of reducing the
enormous burdens that paralyse the national
industry, we know that there is "a penny wise and
pound foolish economy," which it would be most un-
wise to sanction. We have so often inculcated the
accuracy and propriety of the aphorism, Si vis
pacem, para bellum, that it is unnecessary to recapi-
tulate our former arguments. But everything on that
point applies with far greater force to the navy than
to any other branch of the service. We may have all
the materiel—gallant ships, fully provided with all ne-
cessary armaments ; but what use would they be
without the hardy seamen to man—to become
the spirits animating the inert masses ? It is
notorious that it takes a much greater time to bring a
ship's company into good working order, to be able
to perform their duty without any unnecessary ex-
penditure of labour, than it does to enable the differ-
ent companies of a regiment to co-operate together.
And yet we never think of disbanding a regi-
ment, the skeleton is still kept together, ready
to start into life and vigour at almost any moment.
The Executive know well that a soldier is a machine
that requires considerable polishing before he becomes
really valuable—that each trained man has cost so
many pounds, shillings, and pence to the country,
and represents a certain pecuniary value, which it
would be as ridiculous to lose as it would be for a
person to cast his money into the sea, because he had
no immediate want. If this principle be true with
respect to the army, it applies a fortiori to the navy,
and yet we recklessly discharge well-disciplined crews
when they have reached the very highest point of
efficiency, well knowing that it would be ipossible
in case of emergency to replace the priceless gems we
were disregarding.

Looking with as much calmness as is possible under
the circumstances at the history of the life of this mon-
ster, it is impossible not to discover i❑ it reasons for
lamenting those things which too frequently tend to
retard the approach of justice. The liberty which
has been permitted for so lengthened a period to
SARAH CHESHAM, a liberty enabling her to carry out
her very awful schemes of devastation, is the fruit,
unhappily, of that remissness in the laws of the land
which the conscientious reformer of the criminal
code has again and again reprobated. Often as the
necessity for the comprehensive revision of this code
has been insisted upon, and more especially of late
years, it has seldom been placed so glaringly before
the common sense of the Legislature as by the
facts brought to light by the trial of the
criminal here mentioned as having been formally
convicted and sentenced to death at Chelmsford.
From these particulars it must be sufficiently appa-
rent that, with all our elaborate precautions against
assassination by poison, we are, nevertheless, very far
indeed from having afforded adequate protection to
human lives. Efforts are still making to prevent a
too ready access to poisonous drugs and acids of a
destructive character. As yet, however, those subtle
agents of the murderer are within his reach at a cost
altogether insignificant. The continuance of this
system must be prevented. The sale of
these dangerous liquids and powders must be
restricted to specified cases, and even then, under
the heaviest penalties for any infringement of the
law, they must be only purchaseable upon certain
stringent conditions. True, there is a sort of dis-
cretionary power of this kind exercised at present,
but it is assuredly very necessary to assert that this
power, as at present regulated, is every wa►y inadequate.
What renders the case of SARAH CHESHAM a yet
greater source of horror to us, is the circumstance
that the medical evidence given upon the occasion
of her former trials and acquittals, actually appears
to have suggested to her novel methods of carrying
into effect subsequent schemes of poisoning. After
acquiring the knowledge of this, we may presume
that henceforth at least the guardians of the law will
exercise, in the prevention and punishment of crime,
a more awakened and comprehensive vigilance.

THIS EVENING,

CREMORNE GARDENS.—Great alterations and im-

public fcr the forthcoming season, with an especial regard to
the gratification of foreigners who will flock to our shores
this memorable year. Amongst the novelties will be the
construction of a grand equestrian circus, and the formation
of a Hippodrome. The extensive maze heretofore at the
entrance of the King's-road will be removed to the river es-
planade, in order to make room for the circus. The enter-
prising manager, Mr. T. B. Simpson, is now in Paris, con-
cluding equestrian and other engagements, which doubtless
will fully maintain the great reputatian of this popular place
of amusement.

ADULTERATION OF COFFEE.—A meeting to take

held yesterday at the London Tavern, Mr. T. Baring, M.P.,
in the chair, when resolutions condemnatory of the practice
of adulterating coffee with chicory and other rubbish were
agreed to, notwithstanding the vehement opposition of a
number of retail coffee dealers who were present, the majority
of whom admitted that they were in the daily habit of selling
chicory as coffee.
EXTRAORDINARY PIGEON FLYING MATCH BY
NlGllT.—During the last few weeks considerable curiosity
has been manifested among the pigeon fanciers on the
Surrey side of the water, and other places, in consequence
of the following unusual and extraordinary match, which is
reported to be for 51. a side .—lt appears that a Mr. Raw-
lings, of Bermondsey New-road, a well-known fancier of
the feathered tribe, has backed his pigeon to fly, at dark,
from the fifth mile stone, on the Brixton hill, to his resi-
dence, and afterwards from Shoreditch Church, with the
same bird, which has also to travel to Mr. Rawlings' house,
as above stated. The pigeon has been in training for some
time past, and will be shown at the house of Mr. George
Osmond, the Britannia, Edward-street, facing the western
end of the Grange-road, Bermondsey, where the members of
the society assemble every Monday, Wednesday, and Satur-
day evenings. The bird has to be marked by disinterested
parties, and, according to the articles drawn up, must be
thrown at both points, and produced at Mr. Osmond's be-
tween seven and twelve o'clock on Sunday night next. A
great number of bets are depending on the result, as many of
the young fanciers do not believe that pigeons can fly any
distance in the dark,

that gallant corps embark in her at Cork. The 13th Prince

several of the remote parts of Scotland, will supply the place
of the 74th Regiment, originally intended for Gibraltar; and

that station.

On the first vote, then, the number of men to be
employed during the coming year, cur views are
altogether in favour of the Government, and we find
ourselves opposed to many valued friends. We could
not assent to a reduction of 9,000 men, or nearly 25 per
cent, of these employed, nor do we object to the in-
crease of pay and allowances, and improved arrange-
ments with regard to the victualling department, or
to the liberal commutation for grog, &c. ; the addi-
tional sums expended in these mattes are of trivial
importance in comparison to the good effected, and
we believe that we speak the feeling of all
classes in the country, that no reasonable outlay
should be spared which could add to the comforts,
or promote the happiness of our sailors. 'We, there-
fore, fully approve of the votes given as to the
number of men to be employed, the wages,
and the victualling of these men. It must,

It is impossible, wholly and entirely impossible, we
should opine, that the sticklers for the remission of
capital punishment in all cases as a penalty for crime,
should persist in requiring the unconditional
acceptance of their doctrines. BECCARIA him-
self would hesitate, we should conceive, from
demanding any more lenient infliction in regard to
the author of such preternatural atrocities. 'We hays

TROOPS FO2 THE CAPE.—SOUTHAMPTON, MON-
DAY.— Orders were received here this morning to get the
Singarore, steam-ship, the property of the Peninsular and
Oriental Steam Company, ready immediately, to embark
troops for the Cape of Good Hope. Wit hin half an hour
after the receipt of the communication, Captain Engledue,
the superintendent ofthat company, gave instructions to have
the ship hauled alongside the dock wall, to be fitted out
with all possible dispatch. She i 3 to have an orlop deck, and
every requisite for the conveyance and accommodation of
a large number of soldiers. The Singapore is a new ship,
having made only one voyage to Constantinople and back,
and proved herself a fast sailer. She had a trial recently,
and made 12 knots easily. She is commanded by Captain
Robert W. Evans, one of the most experienced of the com-
pany's officers. It is expected the vessel will be ready and
victualled by Saturday next, on which day the troops, no
doubt, will leave Southampton for the seat of war.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS•

CITY, 711'0 O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated
at 4,000 bales, comprising 3,030 American at 63'4d. to 7d.,
200 Pernam and Marantiam at Bd. to 8%d., 200 Bahia at
7%d. to Sd., 100 Egyptian at 711/2d. to 9d., and 600 Surat at
43/4d. to 5%d. per lb. The market was heavy, and Ameri-
can, at and under 7d., were %d. per lb. lower, but all other
kinds, though declining, were not so much changed.—Rail-
way Shares were quiet, with little variation in prices.
A curious and interesting meeting was held in the City
yesterday afternoon, viz., of parties connected with the
Coffee trade, to give expression to their views as to the
adulteration practised. Strictly speaking, the meeting was
intended to have been a sort of protest by the growers, the
importers, and the public; but there is a section of the less
conscientious dealers who profit largely by the admixture of
chicory, damaged beans, chesnuts, acorns, &c., and who find
their account in bring enabled to sell an article apparently
very cheap, and therefore attractive to the working classes,
but in reality very dear when we consider its inferiority.
The fallacy of assuming that the working classes have either
the money or time to purchase mills and grind for themselves
is scarcely worth refutation ; but, on the other hand, it may
be conceded that a poor man would be well content to pay
10d. or ls. for half a pound of Coffee, and half a pound of
Chicory, in preference to having all Coffee at Is. 2d. or ls.4d.
This granted, however, where is adulteration to stop, if
the SELLER is permitted to proportion the quantities?
The only protection must be to compel the sale of
Coffee and_ Chicory separately, as was stated by Mr.
Thomas Baring, the chairman of the meeting. Viewed
altogether, there are great difficulties in the way. It is
hardly possible entirely to prevent a dishonest dealer from
concocting a cheap and palatable but not nutrititus article,
and yet while excise laws exist it would be excersively un-
fair to the respectable trader not to endeavour to check it.
Once allow that the adulteration of exciseable commodities
is legal, and we cannot see that one article should be pro-
tected more than another. The revenue and the public must
then suffer together. Moreover, it would be hard to stop the
growth of chicory, and beans, chesnuts, and acorns, no one
can possibly interfere with. With great difficulty the chair-
man yesterday carried the resolution against adulteration,
for the " mixers" were in strong force, while Messrs. Baring
and friends had not used any exertion apparently to "whip
up" their supporters, and all know that what is everybody's
business is nobody's, and that the public grumble but leave
the energetic few to agitate. That the respectable retail
dealers admire the adulterating system, we cannot for a mo-
ment admit.

Under this head yesterday allusion was made in general
terms to the news received from Mexico. The official infor-
mation received by the committee of bondholders, and since
forwarded to us, states :
" The Committee have received advices from Mr. Falcon-
net, dated Mexico, the 3d ult. At that date the accep-
tance of the decrees of the 14th of October last by the bond-
holders here was not yet known in Mexico, and Mr. Fal-
connet's letter, therefore, contains nothing relative to what
the bondholders are to have out of the Amer can indemnity
money except this passage Had not Mr. Payne's illness
suspended my negotiations, I believe that I should have
succeeded in getting the assignments of the 2,500,000 dolls.
on the indemnity money deposited in such a manner as en-
tirely to remove it from the control of the Government.'
" Mr. Falconnet's negotiations with the Government, ge-
nerally, had been suspended by Mr. Payne's illness, and
subsequent retirement of the Minister of Finance. He is
succeed by Don Ignacio Esteva, who had not taken actual
charge of the department at the date of these dispatches.
" Mr. Falconnet had, however, bad an interview with the
new President, General Arista, who had assured him that
he would do everything in his power to satisfy the bond-
holders. No definite arrangement bad been come to yet
with Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh, but Mr. Falconnet
continues to entertain hopes of recovering what is due from
them to the bondholders. _

"The Severn brings 56,500 dolls. for account of the bond-
holders from the Custom-houses of Vera Cruz and Tampico."
The firm of C. Kelly and Co., of Hamilton (Canada), are
about to erect a powder mill in the neighbourhood of that
city—the first, we believe, ever contemplated in British
North America. They will be prepared to fulfil orders in
April next. It is satisfactory to notice the increase of do-
mestic manufactures without any excessive protective duty
on the foreign articles to force them into use. It shows true
progress.

This is settling day in the Engl'sh Stock Market, but the
speculative operations have been 80 trifling during
the last few weeks, that very little interest is
attached to the adjustment. Taking the highest and
lowest prices of the Account the variation is but 3/4 to % per
cent. The events that have fallen within this period might
well have been expected, at any other time, to have excited
a good deal of fluctuation. There has been the resignation
of Ministers, the failure of the Budget, the danger of a dis-
solution of Parliament, the outbreak of a new Kafir war, and
one or two minor contingencies, but none have occasioned
more than a fractional change ; and, with the abundance cf
money to check a fall, and the attraction afforded by shares
to those inclined to deal for time, we can, of much wonder
that the Consol market has been so dull. To-day the prices
are 96% to % for Transfer, and 96% for Account. The IN ew
