Majority for Walpole ... 467
Immediately the afternoon poll closed, a consultation
took place between Mr. Denman and the most influen-
tial members of his committee, the result of which was
that Mr. Denman sent in his resignation to the Tice-
Chancellor. After the close of the poll the undergra-
duates congregated, and proceeded in succession to
colleges—behaving in an exceedingly disorderly manner.

THE LATE FATAL COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL... -
The inquiry which was opened on Friday, at the Queen s
Head, Walmer Strand, on the bodies of four of the pas-
sengers of the ship Josephine Willis, which was run
down on Sunday night week by the Maogerton screw
steamer, was resumed on Saturday morning. After a
protracted investigation, the leading points of which
have already appeared in The Suit, the coroner being as•
sisted by Captain Cannon, R.N. (late of her Majesty's
ship Centaur), the jury returned a verdict of /Dan.
slaughter against Richard Bourchier, the captain of the
Mangerton steamer, who, on the warrant being issued,
vas found to have left the town.
SUICIDE.—Much regret Las been created in the com-
mercial circles of Liverpool by the melancholy suicide of
a gentleman whose family was regarded with unusual
respect in the town. The deceased is Mr. Robt. Mather,
formerly one of the most opulent merchants of the port,
who for some years past has lived in retirement from
business with his brother, Mr. John Mather, a magis-
trate of the borough, at the family house in Mount
Pleasant. Recently Mr. Robert Mather has been con-
fined to his house from severe indisposition, which mani-
fested itself in stubborn attacks of epileptic fits. On
Friday night he locked himself in his chamber and com-
mitted suicide. The jury, at the inquest held on Friday
at the house of the deceased, before Mr. Curry, coroner,
returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased cut his
own throat while labouring under temporary insanity.
The deceased, as well as his brother, Mr, John Mather,
was a bachelor,

ITALY.

The Opinione of Turin, of the Bth inst., publishes
the following report of the sitting in which the
Senate voted the loan of 30,000,000
" The President, the Marquis Alfieri, having taken
the chair, the discussion immediately commenced. All
the Ministers, namely, Messrs Cavour, Lanza, Durando
Deforesta, and Cibrario, attended.
" M. Pinelli rose and said—' Even if peace were con-
cluded, we should hold ourselves prepared for every
contingency, for we may not be then at the end of our
difficulties. Piedmont —thanks to the treaty of alliance
asd the honourable sacrifices she has made—has con-
solidated her political and moral existence. The bra-
very and skill of our generals and soldiers shall not
prove sterile for us, and we have reason to glory in
the popular acclamations which saluted the ancient and
renowned banner of Savoy in the two greatest capitals of
Europe. (Hear.) As for Italian sympathies who can
doubt them, after the demonstrations in our favour on
every point of the peninsula, and the donations for our
brave soldiers in the Crimea forwarded from all parts of
Italy. In future, Piedmont will be better able to repel
attacks against her independence and liberty, and to
brave any danger that may menace her on the part of a
Power which, although a stranger to Italy, nevertheless
exercises a very great influence over her domestic affairs.
Whatever importance Austria may have acquired by ber
last act, she cannot be placed on an equal footing with
Piedmont, one of the belligerent parties. England and
France will certainly check all further extension of the
influence of Austria in Italy, and insure the independ-
ence and futurity of Piedmont. I vote,in favour of the

" None of the Senators having asked to speak for or
against the bill, its three articles were put from the
eaair and adopted, and the entire bill was afterwards
voted by a majority of 50 to 7."
In its sitting of the 6th, the Chamber of Deputies
adopted the different chapters of the budget of re-
ceipts for 1856, together with the first four articles
of the project of law relative thereto. The discus-
sion on the fifth and last article was suspended.
The Ministry calculated that Abe receipts would
amount to 155,745,608 livres, including the
25,000,000 of the loan contracted in England. The
General Committee, with the approbation of the
Government, fixed the expenses at 157,500,838
livres, reducing the proposed increase on the stamp
duty from 1,210,000 to 200,000 'lyres, and aug-
menting the registry duties by 400,000 livres,
the duty on emoluments, by 200,000 livres, and
that on succession by 400,000 livres.

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE OF
THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.

GENTLENEII,—AIthough a very large proportion of those sflio in-
tend to vote for me have not yet recorded their votes, I do not think
that I should be justified in prolonging the contest, merely, for the
sake of diminishing the present large majority against me.
Could I feel certain that my opponent had nearly exhausted his
strength, my course would be mere difficult to decide upon. But
there are to my mind, and in the opinion of my friends. clear proofs
that a reserve remains, sufficient, together with the present majority,
to overpower the numbers upon which we could still reckon.
The polling cannot be extended into another week without serious
inconvenience to the University and to individuals; and since it
could not he so extended with a reasonable prospect of Success. I
feel it my clear duty to rdtire.
In taking this step I cannot refrain from tendering to Mr. Walpole,
and great numbers of his supporters, any sincere thanks for the very
kind and flattering manner in which they have expressed themselves
towards me, and for the great courtesy they have shown:. I believe
that no contested election Baas ever been conducted with more mu-
tual personal respect between the rival candidates, or with less acri-
mony on the part of their supporters.
It only remains for me to express my hert,tfelt thanks to that large
number of your body who, having thought me worthy of represent-
ing you in Parliament, have exerted themselves in my behalf with
the most generous zeal and devotion.
It will be to me a subject of pride and gratitude to the last hour of
my life that I have been honoured by the support of so many of your
body, including not a few of the most distinguished names that have
egdenintmheer7t that h annals
st
otfeachicboride which gew has been made will

been
nrurestcirgi gentlemen,
justify the confidence of those of you who made it,
and, with every wish for the prosperity of the University and all
belonging to it,
jam, yours faithfully,

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA,
Feb. 7.—The incubus which weighs on
the minds of Austrian politicians is the Russo-
French alliance, which they see looming in the dis-
tance, but the Emperor Napoleon, who must be
well-informed of what is passing in the world,
cannot think of making Russia his mainstay, the
prop of his dynasty. The Russian Court looks
on the present ruler of the French as neither more
nor less than a fortunate adventurer, and Louis
Napoleon cannot be ignorant that Russian Grand
Dukes received positive orders from their late
father on all occasions to treat the Count do Cham-
bord as the King of the French, and that they
never failed to give him the title of Majesty, and
to insist on his taking the place of honour.
Count Buol leaves for Paris on Wednesday, the
13th, and little business of importance is likely to
be transacted during his absence, as Baron Werner,
the Under Secretary of State in the Foreign De-
partment, has a remarkable disinclination to take
any responsibility on his own shoulders. It is re-
lated that Count Colloredo, the Austrian Minister
at the Court of St. James's, will meet Count Buol
in Paris. It is rumoured in the city that Baron
Prokesch will go frord Constantinople to the French
capital, but the report is certainly unfounded. To-
day Count Rechberg will move in the Bund that
that body do formally accede to the propositions of
peace, but it is foreseen that Austria will again be
defeated by Prussia and the second-rate German
States.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

The last morning performance of the extraordinarily-
successful pantomime of " Hey Diddle Diddle" is fixed
for to-morrow (Tuesday), on which occasion the lessee
has, with his usual liberality, invited the veterans of the
army who have returned from the Crimea to witness the
performance—the medal, so nobly won, exhibited on the
breast, will he the only passport required for admission.
We anticipate on this occasion a highly-interesting audi-
ence, for no'doubt the generous offer of Mr. Smith will
be largely accepted ; and so for those who have delayed
their visit to Old Drnry till the preseet time a sight is in
store that will be long and lastingly remembered.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

Mr. HUMS asked—the Secretary for Ireland
whether the Government had had under its considera-
tion the question of assimilating the weights and mea-
sures and tales in 'lreland ; and, if so, whether it was
their intention to bring in any measure upon the sub-
ject this session ?
Mr. HORSMAN said it was not the intention of the
Government to bring forward any measure of the kind
thi4 session.
THE DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.

Mr. EWART inquired of the First Lord of the Trea-
sury whether any, and (if any) what, measures had been
adopted for the establishing a system of examination, or
other educational test, for candidates in the diplomatic
service of the country ?

Lord PALMERSTON stated there had been commu-
nications with the commissioners for the examination of
candidates for public appointments, and he would have
no objection to lay that correspondence, relative to the
examinations for embassies and consular appointments,
on the table of the house.

Mr. RICARDO gave notice that he should move ou
that day fortnight for a select committee to inquire into
the system of Government contracts.

THE POLICE BILL.

In answer to an HON. MEMBER,

Sir G-. GREY said he believed it was the general
wish of the-house that this measure should be proceeded
with as speedily as possible. He ,-bad postponed it
already for some days, on -the understanding that it
should be proceeded with on Wednesday next. Under
these circumstances, therefore, he could not comply
with the wish of the hon. gentleman to further postpone
the second reading of the bill.

W. S. WOODIN'S ENTERTAINMENT,

The prestige with which Mr. Woodin's performances
were received in this country seems to increase and
gather enthusiasm, so far, at least, as the feelings of the
public are concerned. His sketches of character are so
well known, that it is needless to enter int) detail.
Every one knows who has had the pleasure of witnessing
his performances (and who in London has not ?) that his
delineation of character is unrivalled.
The characters he met with while traversing the shores
of the beautiful and far-famed Lakes of Windermere,
are given with a zest and truthfulness whick imparts
to his audience a lively idea of the originals.
Not less characteristic are his delineations of rural
than they are of London life. For while we have, in
the country, and revelling amongst those beautiful
scenes, representations of which, in panoramic order.
Mr. Woodin passes before his audience, we have at the
same time the lights and shades of London life. With
the simplicity of the rustic we have the overbearing pre.
tensions of the London snob. Even feminine simplicity
finds a corner in Mr. Woodin's Carpet Bag.
The performance on Saturday evening went off with
the greatest éclat, and the attendance was select and re-
spectable. Perhaps an addition to the attendance might
-have been accounted for by the fact, as explained by
Mr. Woodin, that it was the one thousandth night of his
performance in London—making himself equal to Albert
Smith in that respect. The increased attendance showed
Mr. Woodin's increasing popularity, and indicates that
he will have a long run in London.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

;Sittings at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justice Jervis
and a Common Jury.)
DALEY V. SIMS AND OTHERS.

This was an action brought to recover 2021. 18g. The
plaintiff is a merchant of Cork, and the defendants factors
and brokers in London.

It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff that in
January, 1853, he accepted .two,bills drawn by the de-
fendants for 4041. 13s. 4d. and 4561. 16s. 7d. In
August, 1853, he suspended his payments and sent
notice to his creditors, the two bills at that time being
within a week of coming to maturity. The plaintiff
afterwards paid a composition of 13s. 3d. in the pound,
Hid. being lin cash and the remainder in staves. The
defendants, it appeared, held a quantity of staves be-
longing to the plaintiff, and a question arose as to the
deposit of the staves and the defendants holding them as
factors or not, or whether there was a balance due to
the plaintiff over the above amounts of 242/. 18s.
A verdict was returned for the plaintiff for that
amount.

LOCAL DUES ON SHIPPING.

In answer to a question relative to this bill,
Lord PALMER•STON said it was the intention of
the Government to go on with the bill on the 25 h, if
circumstances permitted.
EXCEEDING THE ESTIMATES.

Sir 11. WILLOUGHBY called the attention of the
house to the time generally occupied in passing the esti-
mates for the year, and deprecated 'the system of ex-
pending such large sums as %% ere shown by the accounts
without a vote of the house, and called for an explana-
tion. He mentioned the sum of 435,0001. as having,
been so expentled.

Sir C. WOOD said, the first vote to-night would be
to cover that expenditure, when he would state when
and how it had occurred.
Mr. WILLIAMS thought that as peace was near at
hand the estimates should be pDstponed. He had no
wish to cripple the Government, or for them to relax
their exertions during the consideration of the
pending peace negotiations, but he was of
opinion that if they passed these estimates now,
and peace was declared, the country would be sad-
dled with a war force. It was 'that he wished to
prevent. If war was to be continued he would do all
he could towards its being carried out with vigour. He
referred to the increased expenditure in some department
for the past year, and the small decrease on others which
the expenditure on last year showed. He called atten•
tion to there being 314 admirals, of whom 18 were on
service, arid three or four in the dockyards, leaving 264
unemployed, being about one for every single shin in
commission. He next referred to the half-pay of officers

MUSIC

THE SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY. —Mr. Costa's Ora•
torio, •`EIi," which was produced at the la,t Birming-
ham Festival, will be performed for the first time in
London on Friday next, at Exeter Hall.
Madame Goldschmidt takes part in two performances
at Birmingham, under the auspices of the Musical Fes-
tival Committee, on Wednesday and Thursday, the 21st
and 221 instant. On the first evening the Creation is
to be performed ; on the second, a miscellaneous con-
cert. M. Benedict is to conduct, and the entire arrange-
ments assimilate in character to those of the triennial
festival. The baud will consist of about 70 performers,
and the choruses sustained by 220 voices. The ballot
takes place on Wednesday next.
On Thursday evening Madame Goldschmidt appeared
in a miscellaneous concert in St. Andrew's-hall, Nor-
wich, before an audience of 2,200 persons. The receipts
at her two performances La Norwich last week were
2,4001.
The concert given by Madame Goldschmidt at Bris-
tol on Friday night appears to have been a most suc-
cessful one. The audience in the room (-ays the Bristol
Mercury) numbered over 1,300, and the receipts ex-
ceeded 9001. Upon proceeding from the Queen's Hotel
to the concert, the wheel-chair in which Madame Gold-
schmidt rode was guarded by police. The presence of
the officers, however, did not deter the crowd from
pressing round it in the hope of getting a sight of the
frit. cantatrice. Madame Goldschmidt did not exactly
relish this eager curiosity, and at the close of the
concert she sent the chair back empty, and con-
trived to get into a hackney fly which bad been privided
for her at the side-door, and in which she returned to
her hotel.

OMER PASHA AND GENERAL WILLIAMs.

Simmonds, her MnjeSty'4 late Commis-
sioner with Omer Pasha, in a letter to a Contemporary,
says :—T

"In a work entitled Kars and our Captivity in
Russia,' which has been published lately by Col. Lake,
I meet with the following passage, purporting to be an
extract from a private letter written by Major• General
Sir W. Williams from Kars, and dated the 31st of Oct.,
1555

" Rumoors of the operations of Omer Pasha also
reached us, and I hope he is at least acting like a brave
and resolute man • if he does not I will mark him with
my ink in spite of great reputation. Batnum is but
four days from Kars, and six f.r the march of troops,
but if he operate manfully in any direction I shall be
content.'

"I feel it due to the public and to the Turkish Gene-
ral, to whom I was attached during the war as her Ma-
jesty's Commissioner, to come forward in the most pub-
lic manner to correct, through your columns, if you will
allow me, an error which, if unnoticed, cannot fail to
mislead not only the unprofessional but the military
critic. The fact to which I wish to draw attention is,
that no road is in existence by which troops can march
in six' or more days from Batoum to Kars. The dis-
tance is indeed no morethan 105 miles as the crow flies,
and Omer Pasha had reason to believe that there was a
mule track or rather mountaineer's path, but he knew
that it bad to cross a chain of mountains near 10,000
feet in height, and, at the season to which his expedition
bad been delayed, covered with snow, hnd ththugli the
gorges of which, as he was informed, not even a mule
could carry his load with any safety. This route has since
been explored by a British officer whose report, it is
said, fully confirms the opinion of diner Pasha and those
whose advice was taken on the subject of his Asiatic
expedition, which, allow me to add, he undertook like
a brave and resolute man,' undeterred by the obstacles
and delays thrown in his way, and aemoved in great
measure by his zeal and energy, and hoping against
hope to rescue his Sovereign's foices from the fatal
position in which they were placed .by the strategy
of others. Omer Pasha's opinion, however, be it right
or wrong, was based upon the best information acces-
sible to him, and upon which, being personally unac-
quainted with the country, he could place reliance. If
any authentic or positive information had been received
from General Williams with respect to the route by
Batoum, it would have immediately set rest the much
debated question as to the point from which the relief of
Kars should be attempted; but it appears his knowledge
of this route must have been derived subsequently to the
commencement of the blockade of Kars, for on the 15th

ITALY.

A letter dated Rome, Oct. 30, says:—lt is
stated here, and with some probability, that the
representatives of Austria, Tuscany, and Naples,
have recently made urgent request to the Pope to
interpose in favour of King Ferdinand, by sending
au autograph letter to the Emperor Napoleon, itti-
ploring hint to abstain front any measures calcu-
lated to distur.b the Italian Peßinstik, and compro-
mise the peace of Europe, hut his Holiness is said
to have replied very judiciously that the position
of affairs was not. such as to warrant his inter-
ference.

Mr. Craven, attaché to the British Legation at
Naples, arrived at Civita Vecohia by the French
steamer on Sunday last, ant communicated the
intelligence of diplomatic relations being suspended
to the captains of the British vessels stationed in
that port.

General Count de Goyon, who is to supersede
General do Montreal in the command of the
French troops of occupation, is expected to arrive
hero on the Bth November, with a much more
brilliant retinue than his predecessor.

GREECE.
The Austrian Gmette of the 31st ult. has a letter
from Athens, which says that the official journal
of that capital had declared that King Otho was
"neither physically nor morally in such a state of
health as to render his presence at Athens neces-
sary !" This extraordinary language of the official
journal, says the letter, caused a scene of great
violence in the Senate. Senator Provelegis, who
is personally devoted to the King, tore up in the
presence of the assembled Senate the number of
the paper containing the lines quoted, and re-
proached the Ministry for permitting such unbe-
coming language tq be used.

SWEDEN.
The Aftonbladet of Stockholm, of the 25th nit.,
says :—" The four States M.. the Diet have just
proceeded to the election of the chiefs of the dif-
ferent sections into which it is respectively divided.
In the State of the Nobility, the choice has fallen
on reactionary members ; the States of the Clergy
and of the Bourgeoisie have elected Liberals, and
that of the Peasants, Ultra-Progressists. The
chiefs of the :sections are named for the whole dura-
tion of the Legislative session." Tile same journal
says—" The reduction in the postage of letters and
the adoption of a uniform rate, although very re-
cent in Sweden, have already produced such an
.
increase in the revenue of that department, that
the postmaster, in a special report made to the
King on the subject, has solicited a further reduc•
tion."
