between them and her Majesty's Government had not be-
come void..

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he was
not aware that the contract had become void in point of law,
but A was inoperative. With respect to the last part of the
question, there was no exclusive agreement with the Atlantic
Telegraph Company which would prevent Government
entering into another contract, but he did not consider a
similar contract jwith that of the company in question
would be offered.

CUSTOMS ACT.-THE PAPER DUTY.

On the motion for going into committee,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER rose to
move the resolution with reference to the import duty on
paper. The right hon. gentleman having made some prelimi-
nary explanations of a technical character, said the subject of
these resolutions was not one that was of much importance
as regarded either the revenue or the general trade of the
country. Only a few thousands a year were realised to the
revenue by the duty on foreign paper ; and though he con-
tended that the effect of the reduction of the duty would in
all probability increase the revenue, though not to any
considerable extent, he did not wish to discuss the question
in reference to any revenue considtration whatever. He
denied that the effect of this resolution which he moved
would be to make any serious change in the law, or any
important revolution in trade, notwithstanding the appre-
hensions of certain classes. The producers of paper in
this country had been led into a delusion as regarded this
subject, which nothing but experience, he believel, would
dissipate, although the arguments were, he contended,
conclusive. This class drew a gloomy picture of the ruin
that would be entailed on them by the alterations in regard
to the paper duty, but if [what they assserted were true,
what would it prove ? It would prove nothing more
or less than that this class had heretofore been
taxing the British pubic and the industry of the country k
a most enormous and unfair manner (Hear, hear, and
cries of " No, no.") The question must stand exclusively
on the benefit which would be conferred on the public by
the alteration in the duty on paper, and ho maintained that
it would benefit both the consumers and producers. Besides
unless the house consented to this alteration they would be
violating not only the spirit, but the terms of the treaty
which they had sanctioned.

POLICE INTELLICRYCE-(THIS DAY.'

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

OBTAINING GOODS BY FALSE PRETENCES.—Two Ger-
mans, named Albert Hutto; o£2. New-court, Hill-street,
Finsbury, and calling himself a merchant, and Francis
Nantze, an interpreter, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt
with obtaining by false and fraudulent pretences, a quantity
of hosiery goods of the value of upwards £l4, the property
of Mr. Wm. J. Need, hosier, 6, Coventry-street.
Sergeant Joy, 9 C, produced two large bundles of !goods
which the prisoners had obtained.
After some additional evidence, the prisoners were re-
manded.

DESERTION.—A DISGRACE TO TIM ARMY.---John
Madden, a scampish, dissipated-looking fellow, who is
well known to the police, and has been several times in
custody, was brought before Mr. Yvdley, charged with
deserting from the Royal Artillery.
Frederick Martin, a police-constable of the H division,
said he apprehended the prisoner for deserting his regi-
ment on Saturday night, in Hope-street, Poplar. The
prisoner made a ♦iolent attack upon him, threw him down,
and called upon the mob to rescue him. He had much
trouble with the prisoner, who would have done him con-
siderable injury if assistance had not been promptly ren-
dered. The prisoner enlisted a year and a half ago, at
Woolwich, and had deserted three times. When he took
the prisoner into custody after his first desertion he was
ill-used and nearly killed by the fellow. The prisoner was
branded with the letter D, and since he had been in the
army had spent a good deal of time in prison.
The prisoner, in a careless and audacious manner, said
all the policeman had said was true. He deserted two days
after he enlisted, and he had been nearly all the time in
prison since that event.
Martin said, if the prisoner's character had been known
he would never have been admitted into the army.
Mr. Yardley committed the prisoner to the House of
Detection as a deserter, and he will be delivered to the
officers of the regiment to be dealt with by court martial.

ROYAL YACHT SQUADROI4 REGATTA.

The £lOO prize given by the squadron to be competed for
by vessels belonging to any Royal Yacht Club was sailed
for on Saturday. Ten vessels were entered for the race, of
which nine started. The course was the same that lid
been sailed over for her Majesty's and the Prince Consort'.
Cups, and there was a fine fresh breeze from W.N.W. The
Lulworth took the lead at starting, and kept it throughout,
her only dangerous competitors being the Arrow and the
Osprey. The former carried away the jaws of her gaff is
working to the westward off the Kicker Point to cony'
plete the first round, and was compelled to hal
down her racing flag, and retire from the race. Several 0
the others gave out after the first round, and the race the;
lay between the Lulworth, Osprey, Wildfire, Audax,.eo_:
Amazon. The three first named vessels well sustained
their old reputation, but the Audas did but little to vindr
cate the high name she obtained a few days since at Queenly
town. The Warner Light was rounded the second time el
follows :
The Lulworth, 12 minutes ahead of the Osprey, the
Osprey 2 minutes ahead of the Wildfire, the Wildfire
minutes ahead of the Audax, and the Audaz 2 minutes
ahead of the Amazon.
The race was now a dead beat beck to Calshot 9.0
thence to the goal in Cowes Roads. The Lulworth
passed between the station vessel and the Castle,

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Eclectic has several papers of interest in
this month's number. A second article on " The
Oxford School" discusses the recent volume of " Es-
says and Reviews," which, as may be supposed, do
not meet with very favourable criticism, the ten-
dencies of the Eclectic being totally opposed to the
general tone and character of these essays. Hum-
boldt's letters form the subject of a paper which
gives an outline of the great man's career, as well
nc a native of a book which would have been batter
unpublished. There is a very pleasant article on
letters and letter writers, and a memoir of General
Havelock, besides several other papers of more or
less merit.-2 he National Magazine is, as usual,
an agreeable miscellany of tales and sketches
in verse and prose. Mr. Ritchie selects Lord
Stanley for his Parliamentary portrait gallery,
and gives a fair account of his career. Another
political article is on the life and administration of
Sir Robert Walpole, which seems inclined to share
the opinion so warmly expressed by Thackeray in
his lectures, and to attribute to him, despite all his
faults, the preservation of our political liberties.—
Once a- Week proceeds with unabated spirit. Miss
Martineau's able articles on matters of health and
social economy are already well known and appre-
ciated. Sir John Bo wring contributes a paper of
Oriental Recollections, and Captain Sherard Osborn
some sketches entitled " Japanese Fragments," de-
scriptive of that extraordinary people. Eliza
Cook's beautiful lines " Once upon a Time,"
which we have previously quoted in our
columns are included in this month's number.
We are glad to find the popular poetess
has lent her aid to the pages of this agreeable mis-
cellany.—Dunry's _Hibernian Magazine is a new
publication of average merit, chiefly adapted to the
inhabitants of the Emerald Isle.—Knight's admir-
able English Cyclopcedia progresses with its accus-
tomed variety of information, and includes a wide
range of subjects. The number before us has ar-
ticles on mathematics, meteorology, microscope,
mining, the moon, and other subjects of importance.—
Routledge's Illustrated Natural History bids fair to
be the must comprehensive work of the kind ex-
tant. The easy and popular style in which it is
written, enlivened by numerous anecdotes, and the
quantity and excellence of the illustrations, render
it especially attractive to the unscientific reader.—
Cassell's popular publications maintain their charac-
ter for a combination of good sense, sound informa-
tion, and remarkable cheapness of price.

;,iPECTACLES.-SIGHT AND HEARING.-
K.> DEAFNESS.—A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and Invisible Voice Conductor. It fits so
into the ear as not to be in the least perceptible ; the unplea-
sant sensation of singing noises in the head is entirely re-
moved. It affords instant relief to deaf persons, and enables
them to hear distinctly at Church and at public assemblies.
Every other kind of hearing instruments. Messrs. SOLO-
MONS have invented spectacle lenses of the greatest trans-
parent power. The valuable advantage derived from their
invention is, that vision becomes preserved and strengthened ;
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
ess magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York

THE VOLUNTEER MOVEMENZ

A sham fight upon a small scale took place on
Hampstead-heath on Saturday eveni:ig. but under
circcumstances showing that it is not wise to at-
tempt such a thing, even tom]. inconsiderable extent,
on a spot so near and accessible to the metro-
polis, unless with adequate police arrangements for
maintaining the ground- on which the opposing
forces are to ;nanceuvre. -A rumour having been
extensively Circulated during the week that such a
spectacle was to be exhibited on this place of popu-
lar resort, some 50,000 people, from all parts of the

The Saturday half-holyday, n

and the fineness of the day, combined to sight

neralthe scene of the might, such as it

afforded excellent standing ground for a crowd to
witness the spectacle to advantage; but the people
flocked to the spot in such incredible numbers, and
no organised attempt having been made to preserve
the ground set apart for the manoeuvres, had it even
been practicable to maintain it, a scene of confu-
sion ensued which went far to mar the whole cere-
mony and to invest it with ridicule, while it was
not altogether free from danger. The hour fixed
for the fight was 6 o'clock, but it was some time
after 7 before a single corps appeared upon the
field, and the thousands of people were, therefore,
kept waiting during all that interval, and at length 1
Rn impression began to obtain that they had all

IMPERIAL G UARANTEES.

A return has been made up at the Treasury
showing the extent of our responsibility in the
shape of guarantees. At the head of them stands
the Russian-Dutch loan of 1815. The portion gua-
ranteed by this country amounted to £2,083,333
with interest at the rate of 5 per cent. ; and the
sums already paid under the guarantee for interest
and sinking fund (1 per cent.) actually amount to
more than double the original debt. The sinking
fund has now reduced the principal of the debt to
£1,145,833, and consequently our payments for in-
terest are constantly decreasing, but we still pay
above £BO,OOO a year for interest andsinking-fund
together, and the period when we shall cease to pay
anything will not arrive until June, 1915—the cen-
tenary of the guarantee. Next comes the Greek
loan, which, perhaps, may drag on for as long; it
is now 12 years since the Greek Government made
us any remittance. The British Government have
paid £811,790 under their guarantee, and all that
has been repaid to them by the Griek Govern-
ment amount, to only £31,084. We are paying
above £47,000 a year for interest and sinking-
fund, and it is calculated that this sinking-fund
will have purchased all the bonds guaranteed
by the British Government by Michaelmas,
1871 ; but when the Greek Government will
have repaid us is another question. In May,
1859, a joint commission (English, French, and
Russian) reported that they considered, £900,000
the nzini'nuni which Greece is in a condition to pay
annually, the payment to increase progressively,
but the present return adds rothing to the £31,084
which was repaid us by the Greek Government in
1847 and 1818. There are some other guarantees
subsisting under which the British Government
have not been called upon •to pay anything—the
£5,000,000 4 per cent. ?ma raised by Turkey, the
interest of which is jointly guaranteed by England
and France, of which loan only £102,000 have as
yet been extinguished ; several colonial loans ; and
a small sum borrowed for the metropolis main
drainage, of which there is but £70,000 still out-
standing. The £2,000,000 loan to Sardinia was
not a guarantee, but a direct loan, and that country
repays the interest to Great Britain, with a small
annual sum for a sinking fund. Lastly, to three
telegraph companies—the Mediterranean Exten-
sion, the Channel Islands, and the Red Sea and
India Telegraph Company—the British Govern-
ment have made engagements in the nature of
guarantees of a min nuns return, which at the
present take about £20,000 a-year from the public
purse.

regard to its predecessors. We have had insult
cast upon our flag, we have had the sacred charac-
ter of our embassy set at nought, contrary to the laws
of nations, we have had four hundred of the gallant
attendants upon the representative of our Sovereign
either maimed or murdered by an atrocious ambus-
cade. The blood of those four hundred brave sea-
men has ever since been crying out, if not for
vengeance, for the extorting at the point of the
sword, from the flagitious and perjured Government
of China, of something in the way of compensation.
Concessions of more rea,iily access to the northern
ports of the empire and; o a permanent access for
our ambassador, also, to t 4 capital of the country,
hitherto closed inexorably against the foreigner !
And, together with these extorted signs and
symbols of expiation, an adequate sum in good
sterling Syce silver rung out on the nail in the
way of an indemnity. At the commencement of
September, it will be borne in mind, the demand
made by Lord ELGIN for a specified amount
in the form of an indemity, did not exceed
£2,000,000 or £2,500,000. Now, certainly, that
moderate amount ought, in reason, to be doubled
or even trebled. With our Armstrongs limbered
up before Pekin within range of the Imperial
Palace and its environs, our demand should be not
for £2,000,000 or £3,000,000, but for £6,000,000
or £8,000,000, or it might be even, as we said the
other day, £10,000,000. The Chinese have arrears
to make up with us. We have been too often dealt
hardly with by them; and they should certainly
be made to pay down now accordingly.

The public authorities of Derby have commenced
a crusade against poachers, we fear on a system
which will hardly bear investigation. Little, we
know, can be said for the poaching class. They
are too commonly the idle hands of a parish, men
often of sharper wits than their more industrious
neighbours, but disposed to use their ability to save
themselves the tedium and toil of daily labour.
Still such men ought not to be dealt with by extra-
legal measures, and especially, those who make
them what they are, ought not to be protected at
the expense of the public in corrupting their
neighbours. It is but too well known that.
the county police were established by the
country gentlemen chiefly in aid of their
gamekeepers. The measure would hardly have
been carried, but to assist in repressing poaching at
the expense of the community. Bad enough,
surely, that the country tradesmen of all classes,
and the farmers, should have to pay this additional
game-tax, but it is surely worse for the boroughs
to be saddled also with a serious charge in behalf
of game preservers.

AN EFFECTUAL REMEDY.—LAMBER'C'S
ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the bowels
or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ad-
mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and consumption.
It frequently cures persons whom the faculty pronounce in-
curable, admirably allays the tickling which provokes frequent
coughing. In approaching consumption its effects are truly
beneficial. Persuns deprived of sleep, or even lying down for
fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in a few minutes
after tsking it. Prepared only and sold by W. Lambert,

This was a petition to allow the patent to pass the Great
Seal.. The Lord Ch; incellor said—The patent appeared to
have been applied fo' r on 14th December, 1856, and nothing
has been said to acco alit for the neglect of not applying to
the Court before this time. Tt shows that there was no
claim at that time, a: ad at the distance of four years an ap-
plication is now =tie to pass the Great Seal. Ido not
know what interests; may be affected by the patent since
that time, and therbt 'ore I dismiss the petition.

JUDGMEI, ;T.-HOLDEN V. WEBBISIt.

His Honour, the Master of the Itolls, said—After a
perusal of the papers in this case I retain the opinion that
I had at the begin ning, that as against the defendant
Webber there is no c ase. It is simply the ordinary case of
a person claiming, t 1 arough a contract, to employ agents
who have power to p erform diverse contracts of work for
others. Ido not see how this claim can be enforced against
Mr. Webber. The b: ill as against him will simply be dis-
missed with costs. With respect to Mr. Thyler, he was
an agent, and he had great facilities for making such con-
tracts. He made a contract fort £5,000, and obtained
5 per cent. commissio non it, and if such a custom is legall
and officially allow. :;d, it will be protected, but the
privileges must Ibe proved to be given to the
officers and sery ants of the railway company,
who are allowed to give these contracts to others
who pay a remuneration to them by way of commission,
according to the amount of the price of the work done. The
bill must be dismisses l without costs against the defendant
Kyle, without prejw lice to any action at law that Webber
may bring against 1 (:yle and Lee. Whether he can bring
such action or not I f ixpress no opinion, but my decree will
not prevent him.

PEMBROKE COLLEGE.

ROBINSON CHALLENGE Cur.—The four-oar crews to
contend for this splendid cup were drawn on Nov. 5, and,
after daily practice, the first race took place on Friday, the
16th Nov. Six boats, Mr. Cheatle's. Mr. Risley's, Mr.
Stone's, Mr. Moore's, Mi. Luxmoore's, and Mr. Poppe's,
entered for the cup, but Mr. Risky, owing to an unfortu-
nate accident, was compelled to withdraw before the race.
The race on Friday was a bumping one over the entire
course from Riley to King's Barge, and was well contested
by each boat. The order of starting was as follows :-
1. Mr. Moore I 4. Mr. Stone
2. Mr. Poppe .5. Mr. Cheatle
3. Mr.Luxmoore

Mr. Poppe drew rapidly on Mr. Moore, nearly effecting
a bump at the Gut, after which Mr. Moore drew away for
a short distance, but was at last bumped opposite the
Willows. Mr. Stone gained slightly at first, and kept
about even distance as far as the Willows, when his crew
answered pluckily to a spurt, and he ran into Mr. Lux-
moore opposite Saunder's Bridge. Mr. Cheatle's boat, as
Mr. Stone had made a bump, rowed in unpursued and un-
purmin g.
On Saturday the race was decided by a level heat from
the Gut between Mr. Cheatle on the Berkshire side, Mr.
Stone on the Oxfordshire, and Mr. Poppo in the middle.
Mr. Poppe's boat, owing to the recklessness of the cox-
swain, fouled Mr. Cheatle's opposite the Willows, and Mr.
Stone, who at the time of the foul was gaining rapidly and
nearly a length ahead, rowed in winner. Besides the hold-
ing of the cup by the stroke of the winning boat, each of
his crew have a quart, and each of the second crew a pint,

THE AUSTRIANS IN ITALY,

Private letters from Venetia publish some details
respecting the number of Austrian troops in the
Quadrilateral and Venetia.

Austria has at the present moment in Venetia an
army of 130,000 men, divided into four corps, The
first, commanded by General Count Stadion,
guards the Mincio line, and has its head•querters at
Verona. The second, commanded by Archduke
Ernest of Austria, guards the line of the Etsch
(Adige), and has its head-quarters at Vicenza. The
third, under command of General Prince of Hesse,
watches the lower Po, and is encamped between
Rovige and Legnago ; its head quarters are at
Padua. The fourth corps, commanded by Arch-
duke Albert of Austria, is entrusted with the
defence of the city and province of Venice, and the
Venetian coast from the point of Maestra to the
mouth of the Tagliamento.

This army is on a full war footing, and possesses
an immense materiel of artillery, consisting en-
tirely of rifled cannon. The cavalry at present
does not exceed 6,000 men ; but it is to be increased
to 10,000.

Independent of these forces, Austria possesses
another army of 150,000 men, which occupies a
very extended line, and which has for principal
points of concentration Brixen, Klagenfurt, Lay-
bach, Trieste, Fiume, and Cattaro. In case of war,
Austria has thus an army of 300,000 men to defend
her various possessions in Upper Italy and on the
Adriatic.
